Post subject: The Evil Plotbunny Chronicles
Right, I made the decision to entertain you guys (and especially the Lady) with that evil plotbunny I have mentioned elsewhere here in connection with Bel's children. Enjoy and feel free to comment.
He stared blankly at the lake before him, its water dark and dull, barely reflecting the grey sky. A thin layer of mist hovered above it, seemingly trapped to the spot by the gnarly trees and bushes lining the shore. The air smelled of the rain that was soon to come and a cool breeze tugged at his cloak. He resumed wandering along the edge of the lake in an attempt to clear his thoughts.
"Did not quite work out as planned, did it?" a hollow voice echoed in his mind and he looked around frantically.
"Where are you? Stop fooling around, I am not in the mood for cheap tricks!"
He received no answer but he noticed that the mist had started to move towards him and now accumulated a few steps away from where he was standing. A pair of glowing light blue eyes sat in the center of the forming cloud. He could only gape as the mist shifted and twisted itself into a vagely humanoid form.
"Do you still think this one is cheap, father?" she finally replied with a coy smile as the upper half of her body finished materialising and the eerie glow left her eyes.
"Quite impressive, I have to admit... to answer your question - no, it didn't, the council..."
"... was happy to adapt your suggestion, but one of your younger sisters was put in charge. I know."
Her numerous bracelets and the coins sewn to the belt around her hips jingled softly as she floated around him, her now jet black eyes twinkling with amusement.
Without a warning he grabbed her by the neck and pulled her closer to him. "Interesting, care to explain?" he hissed, unwilling to let his surprise show.
Her mocking smile never faded behind the thin veil that covered her face from nose to chin. Before he could even react she collapsed into a cloud of mist again, only to reappear sitting nonchanantly on a branch of a nearby tree.
"Now, now, father, wasn't it you who encouraged me to explore my powers? I am just doing as I am told!" She was not really trying to sound innocent.
He grunted and shook his head, too tired to argue with ther for now. Sometimes he simply did not know whether to be proud or terrified of her determination.
The lower half of her body split into several hazy tendrils which securely wrapped themselves around the branch. Snatching the flimsy veil off her face and interlocking her hands behind her head she swung backwards into an upside-down position and gazed at the lake from this unusual perspective for a coule of seconds before speaking again. A few stubborn rays of light that made it through the thick layer of clouds played with her pale blue, freckled skin.
"So what's the plan then?" she finally asked, turning halfway around to him.

Oh and here I thought the dialogue would make it glaringly obvious. Go me!... kidding.
OK let's add another puzzle piece:
One of the guards yawned heartily as she approached the gates but immediately straightened up when he recognised her. The other one tried very hard not to laugh, but failed rather miserably.
"Good morning! The day shift should be here soon, right?" she greeted them with a knowing smile.
"Good morning, your Highness. You're up early! Indeed, the day shift should take over any moment," the less sleepy night guard replied with a lopsided grin as he stepped aside to open the gate for her and bowed stiffly.
Bringing her palms together in front of her chest she returned the greeting before slipping out of the city.
for a while she silently approached the rising sun, admiring the shades of red and orange it painted across the sky. Finally she looked back at the city that was just now starting to awake behind the giant walls her people had set up against both real and imaginary threats from outside. If only they knew that the biggest threat to their very existance could not be deterred by pathetic piles of stone...
Her children kept disappearing and only recently she had found out why.
His mind was deteriorating at an alarming rate these days, all he seemed to care about was how to get access to the soulstone keepers. While he never fully explained to her what he wanted them for, she had a pretty good idea of the plan. Not that she cared too much about the fate of the other planets, but the thought of her children being tortured in his hidden laboratory made her sick. It had to stop. Her children had grown dramatically weak within only a few generations and now she was the only one standing between them and their demented creator and yet she felt her influence on him fade.
She turned away from the city and looked up at the few remaining stars that twinkled where the sun had not quite touched the sky yet. Falling into deep meditation she dissipated into a blanket of haze that slowly spread across the meadows around her. She had been in this state for most of the past centuries, ever since she had discovered that it dramatically slowed down her aging process and helped her improve and channel her powers.
When she felt that the moment was right she reached out for the stars above to ask them for help and to warn them of her "father's" sinister plans. But just as she thought she was getting their attention her mind clouded, despite all her desperate attempts to remain focused. She felt as if she was falling for what seemend an eternity, then found herself trapped in complete darkness and silence. All thought and emotion drain away from er and then she felt... nothing.
"Ah, my poor, misguided daughter..." he murmured, studying the now sealed flask in his hands. "How do you like the latest creation from my laboratory? Did you know shaytanite is the only material capable of containing a jinn?" He chuckled gleefully. "Sorry my dear, I cannot hear you. Nor can anyone else. Do not worry though, your powers shall not be wasted..."
With one last look at the fading stars he left, his cloak barely touching the grass underneath him.

It was so quiet in the room you could have heard a pin drop. The numerous computer screens reflected the scientists' tense and tired faces as Bahadir carefully brought the laser into position. A light behind them flickered every now and then.
The next few moments would either be the moment of their greatest success or the worst failure in the Resistance's history. They had been working towards this moment for generations now without even really knowing what they were looking for. Some had deemed them insane for infiltrating the New Ahriman Order to search for a legendary artifact.
Now that they finally had it they didn't really know what to do with it. They tried not to think about the possibility that it could be a clever trap set up for the Resistance. The senior members had identified the ancient symbols on the artefact as long-forgotten spells. They had run the flask through various tests and were still none the wiser about its contents, so they had to take the risk now. The Order was up to something and they would not stand there and wait.
Bahadir checked the set-up on his screens one last time and nodded approvingly. Seconds later the laser started cutting through the unusually dense shaytanite while various measuring instruments monitored every little change inside the security chamber.
For a long time the jinns had cared for nothing but their technological and scientific progress. Convinced that everything around them could be summed up and explained with a few mathematic formulas, only very few still believed in supernatural powers. Occasionally though there were jinns born with unusual abilities and a group of scientists soon formed to study these phenomenons.
At first, all went well. The scientists discovered a material called shaytanite, which allowed a jinn to remain in non-corporal form for a longer period of time, which increased the anticipated average life dramatically. Then more and more jinns seemed to develop psychic abilities and the group of scientists was suspiciously quick to dismiss the idea that it was a side effect of sleeping in shaytanite containers. It must have been around that time when they stopped reporting to the public, a short time later they vanished altogether, along with their entire lab and about half of the jinns they had been studying before their disappearance. The rest of them was found dead in the otherwise empty lab.
The Resistance was still young then, consisting of the few who had always suspected that there was more to this scientific project that met the eye. Even before the scientists disappeared there had been traces of a secret religious cult started to show up, a group of fanatic elitists that would later be known as the New Ahriman Order.
The Resistance found out that not only most of the missing scientists had been members of this cult, but also a frighteningly high number of politicians and high-ranking military personnel. This was when the Resistance started building several underground bases and preparing for war.
The laser switched itself off automatically after it had completed its task. For a few seconds all measures kept showing nothing out of the orinary, but then one after the other shorted out. Eventually, small tendrils of smoke crept out of the hole that had been cut through the sealed cap of the flask. They quietly flowed down the table and formed a puddle on the floor.
The scientists huddled closer to the screens as Bahadir switched cameras to get a better view of what was going on inside the chamber.
"I think it's a jinn," Masoumeh, the linguist of the group, finally murmured, not really believing what she saw. And indeed, a female jinn materialised out of the smoke, very slowly, as if she was struggeling with the process. She wore a cropped silk top and matching belt, a ridiculous amount of jewellery and a veil that covered the lower half of her face. Her hair was tied into a high ponytail. A perfect example of the traditional attire even the current generation's grandparents only wore for special occasions now.
She looked around for a second, then shielded her eyes from the bright artificial light. Bahadir turned off half of the lamps inside the chamber and the female jinn winced, apparently expecting to be attacked any second. Her eyes kept flicking to the flask that had been her prison for so long.
Masoumeh activated her microphone. The jinn inched away from the crackling speaker on the ceiling and narrowed her eyes.
"Please don't be frightened, we are not going to harm you," Masoumeh whispered. The room was silent for a moment.
"I don't think she understood you, Masou," Bahadir remarked. Masoumeh tried several of the older dialects she knew but each time she spoke the jinn in the chamber seemed to become more and more irritated by the fact that she could not see the person talking to her. She started yelling at the speaker in frustration but still nobody recognised her language.
Suddenly one of the elders rushed through the door, stared at the screens for a second and pushed Bahadir out of the way to activate a button on the keyboard. The shaytanite wall that separated the scientists from the chamber slid down, leaving only a thick glass pane between the two rooms. The jinn spun around and stared at the scientists and particularly at the elder who was now slowly approaching the glass pane.
She returned the traditional greeting he offered but the skepticism never lefther eyes.
"Welcome back, ancient one," the elder greeted her in her own language, though it sounded somewhat awkward in her ears. "My name is Farsheed and you have nothing to fear from us." She dematerialised long enough to pass through the glass. Everyone except Farsheed moved to the farthest corner of the room. She watched them in mild surprise and the whole group froze and slowly turned around to her. She tried a small smile and turned back to Farsheed.
"My name is Soheila. Tell me, son, what is this place?"

Okay, makes a lot more sense now. You're right, the first part should have been obvious, I'm just not very smart. ^^;;
As far as the story goes, Bel as a scientist is strange to me. I mean, he's a planet, he should be able to just create things like Shaytanite. It's particularly strange to me if he's only experimenting on his own children in the laboratory, less so if he's already stealing other children from Earthsong.
As far as writing goes, I think something that contributed to my earlier lack of understanding is that Bel doesn't really act like Bel. Looking around frantically? Gaping? He has no mouth!
Things like that make me unsure that I understand it even now.
I'm also unsure as to why Bel let Soheila just sit all this time, but I suppose that might be made clear in the next part of the story.
As far as posting goes, double posting is bad!
Please refrain from doing it in the future. You can simply edit your previous post in order to add to it.

Erm, sorry for the double post, I didn't think of that, just wanted to post separate chapters in individual posts.
The whole science thing just popped up in my head as Bel just recently created his children and I am a firm believer in the element of chaos, which means even a planet might not fully know which traits and weaknesses his children might be able to develop.
Thanks for the input though!

I might have forgotten to mention that I like the story. It's fun!
Especially how it jumps forward in time, gives it a bigger scope. I'd like to see more of it.

This just in: the Giants are going to have their own reality show next season. Reality show. Diamond Girl is mildly disgusted but also mildly intrigued. I do have a few questions:
Who's going to rock the Snooki hair-do? Barry? Or Timmy, since he's half-way there already?
Is it going to have an alliterative name like, "Geeping up with the Giant-ashians"? Or they could name it the Real Ballplayers of San Francisco (as opposed to, you know, the fake ballplayers. And the fake housewives, for that matter). Will there be the quintessential meltdowns there always are on contest shows? If so, my money is on J-Sanch as the perfect candidate. Will there be fights between the neat freaks who want the clubhouse clean and the guys who couldn't care less? Will the cameras be let into closed door meetings with Brian Sabean? Because that may be the only thing that will incite me to watch.
J-Sanch next season…?
I'm going to have to get on YouTube or Hulu and watch some Hard Knocks to get a sense of what this is all about. Somehow I don't know if the "poof" would fit underneath a football helmet, so I doubt they included that mandatory aspect of reality TV.
Diamond Girl
p.s. Rangers? If you're out there reading this, I respectfully suggest that you extend JD's contract. Pronto. I think it's a very important thing y'all need should deal with sooner rather than later. But that's just me.

OSHA defines an excavation as any man-made cut, cavity, trench, or depression in the earth's surface as formed by earth removal. This can include anything from excavations for home foundations to a new highway. A trench refers to a narrow excavation made below the surface of the ground in which the depth is greater than the width-and the width does not exceed 15 feet. Trenching is common in utility work, where underground piping or cables are being installed or repaired.
If an excavation is more than 5 feet in depth, there must be a protective system in place while workers are in the excavation. Excavations more than 4 feet in depth must have a way to get in and out, usually a ladder, for every 25 feet of horizontal travel.
OSHA says no matter how deep the excavation is, a competent person must inspect conditions at the site on a daily basis and as frequently as necessary during the progress of work to make sure that the hazards associated with excavations are eliminated before workers are allowed to enter. A competent person has the following qualifications:
If someone else has to be called in order to stop the work, or the designated competent person does not stop unsafe acts and conditions, the person is not acting "competently" within the meaning of the standard.
It is the responsibility of the competent person to conduct daily inspections prior to the start of any work and as needed throughout the shift. He/she may use a checklist to ensure all operations are reviewed. Part of this inspection process includes determining the soil classification. OSHA has included in Appendix A of its excavation standard methods to make it easier for a competent person to classify soils. The ability to determine soil type correctly is critical, because soil type is one of the determining factors in specifying protective systems.
A protective system must be used if an excavation is 5 feet or greater in depth. The three most commonly used kinds of protective systems are: shoring, shielding, and sloping. Each of these protective systems are acceptable to OSHA; it is up to the competent person to determine which method will be most effective for the job. The competent person must inspect these systems regularly to ensure that they are functioning properly.

Choice of multicultural pope delights Joliet priest

The Rev. Peter Jankowski was eating lunch at a Joliet restaurant on Wednesday when he spotted one TV with white smoke out of all the screens featuring sports.
Suddenly, the whole sports bar was fixated on that TV, Jankowski said. He jokingly bet that the new pope would be from Brazil or the Philippines. When he heard it was Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Buenos Aires, he was thrilled.
"I was hoping we'd have a multicultural pope to represent the church, which is universal," said Jankowski, pastor of St. Patrick's Church in Joliet, where 40 percent of the parish is Hispanic. "What a very holy, holy man. Oh my gosh."
At Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Parish, where nearly all parishioners are Hispanic, the phone at the church office was ringing with glee.
"We are excited," said Carolina Gallardo, her face beaming with a smile as she talked about the phone calls she had been taking soon after the new pope was announced. "All the phone calls that I get — they are so happy because he's from Latin America, and he speaks Spanish."
Joliet Bishop R. Daniel Conlon said he, too, "thinks it's wonderful that the pope is Hispanic." But where the pope is from is not so important to Conlon. He believes the cardinals chose the man who has taken the name Pope Francis I because he is "the right pope of the church at this time."
A little excitement about the pope wouldn't hurt the Catholic church in the Joliet diocese and elsewhere, however.
There are more than 655,000 Catholics in the Diocese of Joliet, which stretches over seven counties.
Asked if the number has been growing or declining, Conlon said, "That's always a difficult question to answer because it's hard to know what standard to use to measure."
In marriages and baptisms, the numbers are up, Conlon said.
"You also have to look at the number of people who stop practicing the faith for various reasons. These are people we have to reach, too," Conlon said. "Is the number of active Catholics up? I'm not so optimistic about those numbers."
Conlon's priority of having the "right pope" probably will mean more after the excitement of having a Hispanic pope has subsided.
One problem facing Pope Francis I is how to deal with sexual abuses of minors committed by priests. Even as cardinals met in Rome this week, the Joliet diocese announced a court settlement in a case involving allegations from three minors who said they were abused in the 1970s and 1980s.
Mike Schauer, a building supervisor at the Joliet Park District, said he left the Catholic church a decade ago primarily because of the abuse scandals. Schauer said he was teaching an adult religion class at a South Holland Church in the early 1990s when one priest was led away in handcuffs.
"It's something you don't forget," Schauer said. "It was mind boggling."
Schauer viewed the election of a new pope from the Americas as interesting but said he did not expect much change in the church.
But many Catholics are genuinely excited about the possibilities that a new pope can bring.
"How nice. I'm happy. I mean it's wonderful," Gloria Chavez Nussbaum, an office worker at St. Patrick's Church, said upon hearing that the new pope is from Argentina. "Instead of keeping it a European all the time, they broadened the horizon."
Rev. Jose Cilia, associate pastor at Our Lady of Mount Carmel, said he was very impressed with Pope Francis I's initial appearance, which Cilia watched on television.
"When I saw him for the first time, I was so happy because he showed a happy face," Cilia said. Cilia, who spent 37 years of his priesthood in South America, said he was happy to hear the new pope was from Argentina. But he was also impressed by reports that when he was a cardinal, Francis I lived in an apartment, cooked for himself and rode public transportation.
"I think with his humility, he will help a lot," Cilia said.
Bergoglio's taking on the name of St. Francis, the first pope to ever do so, certainly suggests that he may want to represent something new in church leadership.
St. Francis was a reformer, said Sister Dolores Zemont, president of the Franciscan Sisters of Joliet.
Zemont was at the University of St. Francis for an awards ceremony when members of her order learned a new pontiff had been chosen and that he had selected the name Pope Francis.
"When we heard the name, we just got the chills and some of us teared up," said Zemont. "It's very moving."
USF President Michael Vinciguerra said St. Francis was a man of faith who aligned himself with the poor and marginalized.
"I'm quite pleased he chose the name of St. Francis," Vinciguerra said. "I'm optimistic that there are some very good things ahead of us."
That sentiment was reflected among many of the congregants who attended a Wednesday night mass at St. Joseph's Catholic church in downtown Joliet. The church was filled with hope, faith and a sense of gratitude.
One word remained constant: "Humble."
Nan Horvatin, 85, of Joliet was very pleased and excited with the new pope.
"He seems like he is a people's pope," she said. "He is down-to-earth, and he is very humble and that is a beautiful thing to have."
St. Joseph's pastor, the Rev. Tim Andres, spoke during mass about the universal nature that electing Pope Francis provides to the Roman Catholic Church.
"He is one of the most humble, they say, cardinals in the world," Andres said. "And, we have a pope from somewhere outside Europe so the universal nature of our church and the Catholic nature is truly looked at today as they elect a pope from South America, from the America's for the first time."
The Rev. Matt Pratscher of St. Francis Xavier church in Joliet gave the homily at St. Joseph's. He echoed the same sentiment of St. Joseph's parishioners.
"What a great day today is," Pratscher said. "We have a pope. Pope Francis."

Apdo. Postal 31-243 Guadalajara 5, Jalisco Mexico August 19, 1971 Mr. Weston Bourret Vice President Utah Construction & Mining Co. California Street San Francisco, California 91404. Dear Wes: It is a mystery to me also what happened to your letter of April 28 th because I certainly did not recieve it. Your letter of August 13 arrived yesterday afternoon. I sent you the book on Business in Mexico along with a short note. Since recieving your letter of the 13 th I have contacted the head office of HYLSA and was told that the people most concerned would be in their office Monday Aug. 23 rd. I have suggested a visit to the Puebla Plant on Sept. 9. You and Mr. Douglas could take a plane to Mexico City on Sept. 8 th with a stop over in Guadalajara where I could join you. The morning of the 9 th we could drive to Puebla in about 1 1/2 hours. In the evening of the 9 th we could return to Mexico City. On the 10 th you could have your discussions with the people knowledgeable on the mineral industry of Mexico and its laws, problems etc. It might be possible to return to San Francisco the same night of the 10 th or at least in the morning of the 11 th. As soon as I hear from Monterrey on the Puebla trip, I will telephone you and confirm the meetings with the people knowledgeable in doing business in Mexico and it's economy. Very truly yours, Philip B. Dettmer Philip B. Dettmer August 27, 1971 Mr. Phillip B. Dettmer Apdo. Postal 31-243 Guadalajara 5, Jalisco Mexico Dear Phil: Many thanks for your call on Tuesday confirming the generous invitation to visit the Puebla plant on Thursday, September 9. After checking with one or two Utah executives who, on occasion, have done business in Mexico, I find that Utah has already established contact with the legal firm of Goodrich, Dalton, Little, Riquelme. Also, our Vice President and Comptroller, Drew Leonard, has recommended that we contact Stephen G. Kent, Jr., Officer of the First National City Bank in Mexico City. In view of these prior contacts and knowledge about Utah, I shall pretty much follow the party line in an effort to keep exposure to a minimum. We did call the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City, only to learn that Bill Keys has already left. The man I talked to, Mr. Burson, is too new in the country to have any knowledge about mining and minerals. After checking air schedules, I find we can save some time by flying directly from San Francisco to Mexico City on Western Airlines. Assuming it is alright with you, Hugh Douglas and I will fly down Tuesday evening, arriving in Mexico City at 9:40. The flight is Western 627. By arriving Tuesday night we would then be free to see one or two people in Mexico City on Wednesday, then drive with you to Puebla on Thursday. Our return to San Francisco could be either Friday night or Saturday morning, depending on how things go. I shall call you in Guadalajara Monday as per our understanding. Judging from the time schedule and visits, I do not see how we can also go to Colima to contact Jim Hannan. However, I am open to any suggestions or ideas you may have. We are certainly looking forward to seeing you at the Maria Isabella a week from Wednesday. Very truly yours, Weston Bourret Vice President WB.eiw cc: Mr. P. B. Dettmer Apdo. Postal 234 Colima, Col., Mexico bcc: H. Douglas

Macrobiotic Breakfasts
- 08
- March
- 2013
So, what's special about a Macrobiotic breakfast! A Whole LOt! One of the first questions asked about the Macrobiotic Diet is: what do you eat for breakfast?? do you really have miso soup in the morning? What's wrong with dry cereal and skim milk for breakfast?
Want the skinny on breakfast? Ever notice Dunkin' Donuts logo: we get you up and keep you going! Sure do! All that sugar and caffeine, and guess what happens to our blood stream at 11:00 AM & 3:00 PM? Hypoglycemic dip ~ we are falling on our face, and needing what??? Another coffee break: latte, donuts, breakfast bars to get us going 'til lunch.
And now, folks, here's the Macro take on breakfast: providing sustainability. How would soaring energy til 12:30 or 1:00 fit your bill! Perform all morning, and be the wiz at work, home, home-schooling, driving without dozing, exercise/yoga/walk strongly. In other words, enjoy peak performance throughout your day.
Easily achieved with a macro breakfast: composed of a grain and a vegetable. Our rice and other whole grain, warm nourishing dish would keep the 3 bears and Goldilocks happy forever! And you too.
Delish and sweet without sugar, it's so easily digested we can concentrate on tasks at-hand, rather than sluggishly, barely being able to navigate through the morning. Looking for the donut cart to peel around the corner. Vegetables for breakfast??? you ask. I know it seemed so different to me too, but just think about it. Veggies get the digestive tract moving, so what better time than first thing in the morning? And speaking about time, wanta know the best time for eating breakfast? Best before 8 am. Between 5-7 am
Some stellar breakfast ideas include:
Soft brown rice, sauteed greens and mushrooms, creamy corn grits, fried polenta squares, bancha tea. And for brunches with guests and special occasions, we have delightful cuisine without the sugar, eggs, dairy and gluten too! Take a look at this list: blueberry pancakes & blueberry sauce, mochi waffles and brown rice maple flavor syrup, tofu french toast & a little pan-fried dulse for those craving bacon, and macro cappuccino.

Reggie Brown Florida Tomato ExchangeIn recent weeks, media outlets have been overrun with news of the dispute between Mexico and the existing antidumping suspension agreement between the U.S. Department of Commerce and Mexican tomato exporters.
The majority of this coverage has not been factual, and it's time to set the record straight.
The beginning
In 1996, American tomato growers brought a dumping case against the Mexican industry.
Our government found preliminary dumping margins ranging up to 177% and material injury.
Mexican growers then entered into an agreement not to export tomatoes for less than the negotiated reference price. Enforcement has failed. Domestic producers have worked with the Department of Commerce for the past 16 years to identify and solve the problems, yet the agreement has increasingly failed to meet the minimum statutory requirements for fair terms of competition.
Present day
In submissions made over the past four months, domestic tomato producers who account for more than 90% of domestic production have sought to terminate the suspended investigation and suspension agreement in an effort to have fair trade conditions restored.
Why? Because a lot has changed in the past 16 years: Our economy and the Mexican economy have changed drastically. Inflation in Mexico has risen by almost 250%. Growing methods have evolved.
Greenhouse production, in particular, evolved from a boutique product to one now representing roughly 40% of Mexico's exports.
Yet the reference price — intended to eliminate at least 85% of dumping margins — neither reflects the changing cost structure in Mexico's field production, the difference in types of tomatoes or higher costs of production from different production methods, such as greenhouse growing.
In the past 16 years, imports from Mexico have grown rapidly, while domestic production continues to shrink. Domestic producers are losing vast sums and a number of producers are closing shop.
As a result, tens of thousands of U.S. jobs are at risk.
The Mexican government put out a study of greenhouse production costs in 2007 showing that their producers who export had costs as much as 400% higher than the summer reference price in place — meaning the reference price in place is as little as 21% of the cost of production of greenhouse tomatoes in Mexico.
This situation is unsustainable and impossible to compete against.
The future of domestic tomatoes
The current agreement is outdated, doesn't meet the requirements of U.S. law, doesn't provide the relief that U.S. producers are entitled to under the law and has proven unenforceable.

Open seven days a week, 10.00-18.00. Entry to the Museum is free.
Discover the history of electronic music from the 1950s until today. This exhibition has been co-produced with a group of musicians and with the help of people who made electronic music in the 1960s. Back then, electronic music was still an avant-garde experiment. How did it become part of the musical mainstream?
The exhibition celebrates the boundless creativity and 'make do and mend' mentality of musicians and engineers. It shows iconic instruments alongside home-built synthesisers and one-off inventions. New instruments such as synthesisers and samplers not only changed the sounds musicians could make, but also influenced the way they composed and performed their music.
The exhibition highlights the work of three British studios that produced electronic music in the 1960s and 1970s. Electronic Music Studios (EMS) experimented with computer music while developing some of the earliest commercial synthesisers to pay the bills. The BBC Radiophonic Workshop introduced electronic sounds to the masses through the theme tunes and sound effects its members made for radio and television. In the meantime, in her private studio in Kent, Daphne Oram developed a technique that allowed her to draw sounds. She called it Oramics, and the unique instrument she developed over the years, the Oramics Machine, is also on display.
The Science Museum commissioned artist and writer Aura Satz to make an artist's film inspired by the Oramics Machine. The Oramics Machine is a proto-synthesiser developed by Daphne Oram in the 1960s and 1970s and was added to the Science Museum's collection in 2010.

i need a quick tutorial or help regarding unzipping ?
my downloads are in bridge how do i open them ?
regards maggie
I dont use Bridge, so I am not sure how that works
When I have a file to unzip, I right click it, and I get a set of options in a pop up window. I choose "unzip" and then everything gets extracted.
maybe someone who uses Bridge more can help out
I would love to know how to use Bridge to unzip files as well
I can just unzip right in Bridge by double-clicking on the zip file. If you can't do that, then try right-clicking on a zip file in the Bridge window, and choose the application to associate that type of file with. Bridge stores a list of file type associations that you can see in the Preferences, but I'm not sure that's relevant as I don't think you can edit the list. You should be able to open anything in Bridge in this manner that you can usually open from your Windows Explorer or Start menu by double-clicking there. Try it and let me know if it works.

Leopard Print Wrap Dress
I love this dress! The material is really nice and it feels great against the skin. Really comfortable and since its a wrap dress it can tightened or loosened however you like. I took my normal size.
May 10, 2013
summer dress
I bought this dress today and it looks much better in person. The online picture does not do it any justice. Cute dress for summer outings.
May 8, 2013
Runs large
This dress runs large. I am very petite and ordered the xxs, whick usually fits me in BEBE dresses, and this dress was swimming on me.
April 29, 2013
Cute but front opens up
I'm 5'2" and 118lbs, i tried a size 2 and 0 and feel that the 0 fits better. The length of the size 2 hit my knees or a bit below it which was long for my taste, but the size 0 lands just above my knees. The dress flows well and gives you an hour glass figure because of the tie at the waist. The only draw back is the front is cut very low and you can see your bra/cleavage if you turn or lean over so i would recommend either wearing a cami underneath or a bralet.

The latest effect from Illusion Impact is a dramatic appearance that can be built in one afternoon for under $60. The Specter Cabinet packs down small enough that you can carry it in a duffle bag. A single light within an open frame illuminates a darkened stage. The magician's assistant lowers the cloth sides to the frame. A shadow begins to form. Slowly it takes shape. The magician's silhouette can now be seen from inside the box. He rips away the front cover and makes his entrance. Please note that performaning this illusion requires an auditorium where you have control of the lighting.

Dunno about workouts, but you look very hot to me as you are!
You look great!
Your abs are not that bad, but if you want more muscle work your upper body.
i always feel like im never good enough.
like im ugly or something is wrong with me, cause everybody around me is happy in a relationship and then there's just me. Sad poor lonely me.
All I want is a for a boy to come sweep me off my feet and cuddle me and just let me know im wanted ya know? Its not even the big things that I want, i want the little things like holding hands, or even kisses on the forehead stuff like that, is all i want, too much to ask for?
You've posted photos on here and people like you so you need to try to get over your insecurity cos ur an attractive young man, finding someone can also be about ur location , if you live in a city with lots of gay venues it's easier than if ur in a place with none. Good luck with finding someone it will happen
As Youngwolf said, there is no reason to feel insecure.
You are well-liked here.
You are looking for a little romance. We all do. It's a part of being human.
It will happen for you.
The Three Musketeers... Bashful, Chrisglass, and Ronboy!
Shaggy, Sir Ron is a gentleman, and would never take advantage of this situation.
I would bring you home and get you into bed. And when we both wake up in the morning, then I would fuck you so we could both remember it!
The Three Musketeers... Bashful, Chrisglass, and Ronboy!
Shag, you're young...be patient...it will happen. There is nothing wrong with you, we've all been there.
I'll be right over Shaggy!!
You look great as you are Shaggy!
I just want my body in better shape thats all. I'm so tired of being the skinny guy around every other guy, and people always look at me and are like eat a cheeseburger.
Would love to!
You're feelings are very natural. Give it time Shaggy.
We all wish we could be in better shape, I know I do. I could lose a few pounds, lol. But personally, I don't go for the muscle stud look.
Shaggy, we think you look great as you are!!
Me too I m rather skinny. But if everyone looked like that then there would be no more variety And as they say Variety is the spice of life
I know the feeling all too well...
Holy Shit Shaggy. You are so not ugly. omg, get over here and I'll show you some love.
Eh, I think you're a lot better looking than that guy. And I think your body is smokin' hot.
Your dick looks delicious.
Come here and tease my cock with that ass.
Only one way to find out. Do it!
No problems here
I like the way your mind words dude. hot.
I wouldnt mind trying this.
Just need your pic!
I like you the way you are...
The Three Musketeers... Bashful, Chrisglass, and Ronboy!

Wireless doesn't always works so well for Whole Home. Did they install two SWM16's for your install? If so (and if the SWM16's are located near each other) a CCK/DECA on each SWM16 and an ethernet cable in between will make this work. This is assuming you have placed the DECA at the HR21.
Yes, I have 2 SWM16s. I say that not because I'm an expert, but because I heard the techs talking about it.
What do they look like? I'll try to find them and see about connecting them with Ethernet and DECAs.
I have never seen a SWM16 or a DECA. I'm sure I can figure it out though.
So right now I have 5 HR24s and the HR34 on the whole home group (and presumably all connected to the save SWM16) and then the HR21 all by itself (presumably connected to the other SWM 16).
Would I just connect a DECA to an available coax connection on the SWM16, run Ethernet from that, and connect it to another DECA on an available coax in the other SWM16?
This sounds easy enough to do if that's all there is to it. I bet the SWM16s are right next to each other, wherever they are.
There are 2 things connected to coax in the closet next to my router that the tech said not to ever disconnect (and I think they're connected to power). Would those be the SWM16s?

It's Official...
I won the Atlantic Monthly Student Writing Contest for my poem "When Killer Blue Irises Spread." The contest is for graduate students enrolled in colleges throughout the US.
This was the last year I could submit, so I'm thrilled to have been chosen. (Note to curious readers--of the three chances I had to submit--I missed the first deadline, was rejected the second, and as it turns out 3's a charm.)
Here's a list of all the winners in poetry, fiction, and non-fiction as well.
My poem will be in the summer fiction issue.

This is fantastic news, and I know you deserve it. Man, top prize, too! You aced this contest, baby! Congrats on the win and also just for entering - it can be so hard to make ourselves do that sometimes.
On another note, and I can hardly bear to say this since you said such a nice thing about me, below, but that was not my list, and I didn't post it on WomPo--yet another Kelly poet did.
Again, congrats, and how are you celebrating? - 4:24 PM, April 07, 2007

Sandra, Valerie, January, Nick, & Kelly--
Thanks! It was a real surprise.
And Kelly-- another Kellypoet? how many of us are there? ;-)
Some people think I posted the list (I've seen the name "kelli" attached to that list). We're all going to have to wear nametags and carry resumes. ;-)
RE: Again, congrats, and how are you celebrating?
You know, I haven't thought about it, but yes, I should celebrate! I'll let you know...
Thanks again for the notes everyone!

Indoor and outdoor ant infestations can prove to be a frustrating, challenging pest to eradicate- but with expert advice and industry leading ant control products, DIY pest control can be effectively completed at your home or commercial building. Ants are one of the most common household pests, with over 10,000 species across the globe. Ants are social, similarly to termites, in that they live in colonies that promote population growth. In a short time period, colonies can multiply to reach the millions, and satellite colonies can begin to establish in order to accommodate, spreading the infestation issues.
Click To Download our Ant Solution Guide
Outdoor ant infestations could potentially be an indication of indoor infestation issues in the future, and should be correctly identified and treated, especially if close to your home, garage, office building or any other indoor structure. In addition, precautions should be taken outdoors to avoid the potential for indoor issues. Ensure all breaches to the inside of the home are sealed, this means electrical and plumbing entrances, as well as attic and basement access points that may provide easy means for ants to relocate indoors. Avoid planting certain types of plants near structures, such as peonies, as they attract record numbers of the species.
Indoors, ensure surfaces, cabinets and floors are kept clean and free of ant food sources. Inspect food products and pet food products if ants are seen inside, and work diligently to identify the ant type in order to most effectively treat. Some ants can be attracted to sweet items, while others have different preferences.

Rated 5 out of 5�by 2
Rated 5 out of 5�by BebeDiva Awesome but run large
These jeans are really sweet and I have received lots of compliments every time I wear them, however I must warn they do run large in the waist. I am having to constantly pull them up and not so happy about that! they fit everywhere else so a bit bummed about that, have to wear a belt with them. So you might want to order a size down. I usually wear a 30, a 29 would have fit me better.
December 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by zoubah Simple and yet perfect!!
Love those jeans they fit perfectly they look great I took my regular size 25 I love the boyfriend look without the big pockets that usually come with the boyfriend look, also the boyfriend jeans have more of a loose fit and these are skinny so showing more the women curve!!! Loooove the chain and the paint splashes by the way you could wear the chain around your neck look nice 2

Mr Biver awarded WBC/MAN OF THE YEAR in Cancun in the presence of Muhammad Ali
FecharCancun (Mexico), 3 December 2012 - At the World Boxing Council's opening ceremony, Jean-Claude Biver, Chairman of Hublot, has received an Award for his humanitarian work, promised to continue helping boxing, which he said has given people so much, but gets next to nothing back.
The event was with the presence of living-legend Muhammad Ali, the WBC Board of Governors, WBC President José Sulaiman, legendary fighters such as Julio Cesar Chavez, Jeff Fenech, and Rick De Lacroix, President Hublot Latin America.
For information, the WBC Board of Governors has voted unanimously to honor Mr Biver with the highest award in the WBC organisation, which is "The man of the Year" distinction. This award has been received in the past by people like Nelson Mandela, Carlos Slim, Sylvester Stallone among others.

Wow, you sounds almost like me! Except different styles (but not extremely different too, I think). I also dislike hot weather.. Yet I was born in June, in a tropical country.
For her name, I'm thinking about:
Luna (My pseudo. I decided to have one long time ago because there's a lot of mispelling issue for my real name. Not that I want to change my name, but Luna's definitely suits me).
Callie (Calliope or Calla, maybe?)
SequoiaCall me Cynthia, Angie, or Luna. 22. Name nerd.

Feels like an Elowen to me! :-)
Expecting a girl June 2013!
Current name faves: Genevieve Elise & Rosalind Evangeline
May 7th, 2013 10:09 AM #24
Like I said before I really love Luna! Raina's okay but I prefer just Rain. I didn't like Aspen when I first heard it but it's been really growing on me lately! You're like the 3rd or 4th person to suggest Willow. I like the name Willow and the vibe I get from it(I love trees!), but I don't know if it's for me. I really like Niamh too but no one would be able to pronounce it. That doesn't usually turn me off from using a name if I really like it, but I just don't know if I'd be able to pull Niamh off.
Thanks for the reply and the suggestions! You're the second person to say that you had a similar personality to mine.♥ nineteen & renaming myself soon ♥

American Cosplay Snapshots
Hello, I'm Line! I've been cosplaying since 2004, and I'm trying my best to improve. I have a tendency to obsess over one or two things at a time, so I'll often do a few costumes from one series before moving onto the next and rewear the same things forever. My cosplay partner is Impure_Impulse, so you'll see her in a lot of my photos, and I'm in a lot of hers too. I'm a very amateur photographer, but also have an ACS account if you'd like to take a look over there. Thanks for stopping by~

1* Free Play Wings.ALL POINT BULLETIN: 3 "G.O.W." TICKETS TUE!In what is unquestionably his BIGGEST card of the calendar year, AAA steps out with an UNPRECEDENTED three 10* "GAME OF WEEK" tickets on Tuesday! AAA is playing w/ HOUSE MONEY in 2015 and is +$81,000 units ALL sports since January 2014! Don't delay a second longer, more details > HERE <
For a number of different reasons I think the Wings will roll over the Panthers today. Detroit comes out of the break riding a season-best five game winning streak and will be extra motivated here to beat Florida for the first time in three tries, losing both games this season at Joe Louis. Conversely, the home side enters the second half having lost four straight. Offense has keyed the Wings recent win skein, scoring 16 goals during the streak. In fact, Detroit has won nine of 12 since Christmas, which is bad news for the Panthers who were outscored 16-7 in non-shootout goals during an 0-3-1 slide heading into the break; note that Florida has gone a miserable 1 for 23 on the power play over its last eight. And note that Detroit is 6-1 (+4.4 units) this season after playing three consecutive home games, while Florida is 7-12 (-2.3 units) vs. teams with winning records this year. In my opinion, this is the very definition of "great line value," consider a second look at DETROIT in this one.

Alignment Parts
Wheel alignment, sometimes referred to as breaking or tracking, is part of standard automobile maintenance that consists of adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are set to the car maker's specification. The purpose of these adjustments is to reduce tire wear, and to ensure that vehicle travel is straight and true (without "pulling" to one side).

"What happened to those other underpants you had?" -- Flight of the Conchords
I have two that stay out all the time, a 12 x 18 which lives by the stove and a 16 x 20 which lives by the sink. The 16 x 20 mostly is used by my wife as a stand for a wooden fruit bowl she covets.
Mine(a Carolina Slab) stays out on the counter.It's like a nice piece of furniture that I use all the time.
Leave the smaller mahogany out, mostly use for bread or fruit. The larger maple prep boards are put away. Trying to be as clean and tidy as possible in the kitchen.
both of my boards have permanent locations on my counter.

Hey, Mel! How bout one for us 100ers? PLEASE PLEASE Pretty PLEASE!
Oh thank you thank you. This is so great. I love this. I love the peach... Great addition to my siggie.
Thanks Melanie! Will add to my signature! Great blinkie!
We do not stop playing because we grow old...We grow old because we stop playing.
I soooo wish I had room in my siggy for a 2000 one - will have to add it to my rotation of blinkies - I am very fair and alternate them every so often!!
These are so cute.
Oh too cute Melanie.....great idea!
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.
Where you have posted the blinkies is blank for me. Am I doing something wrong! I copied someone's 1000 blinkie - I'm going to see if it works.
