If you have cancer, the good news is that there is hope with alternative cancer treatments. Real hope. Not the false, dishonest, deceitful hope that doctors give you when they try to convince you that the "Big 3" conventional cancer treatments are the answer. Remember, that's what they have been taught in medical school, so that's all they know. But, you also need to remember to follow the money trail. When your doctor is skeptical about a new natural treatment, you can bet that he is only regurgitating the lies that he has read in the latest medical journal, sponsored by Big Pharma.
It is painfully obvious that the Cancer Industry has absolutely no interest in saving lives or in the truth. Do not believe the lies of the Cancer Industry! There are several non-toxic alternative cancer treatments that work with advanced cancer patients. However, due to the fact that Big Pharma pumps billions of dollars into the advertising each year, you are probably only familiar with the "Big 3" cancer treatments. And since most alternative cancer treatments are very inexpensive and non-patentable, they do not provide the Cancer Industry with a single penny of revenue, thus they are relatively obscure.
Alternative cancer doctors regard cancer as a systemic disease (one that involves the whole body) and focus on correcting the underlying root of the disease, not the tumor, which is merely a symptom. So why doesn't every doctor get on the bandwagon and begin to treat cancer with treatments that really work? Well, we live in the real world, don't we? There are well over three hundred non-toxic alternative cancer treatments that I have studied. If you refuse to undergo the barbarism of chemotherapy and surgery and radiation, and choose alternative medicine first, your chance of survival is 90% or more, if you do your homework.
According to Webster Kehr, the "Cancer Tutor," if you go with orthodox medicine first, and then alternative medicine second, you will have years of suffering and if you are lucky you will then have a 50% chance of survival. The truth is that there are many effective cancer treatments that don't require barbaric procedures like chemotherapy or radiation, but where can you find information to distinguish the real cancer treatments from the quackery? If you Google "cancer," you'll get over 200,000,000 hits. Saying that there's a "lot of information out there" is like saying that the ocean is "a little bit wet." This amount of information can easily overwhelm someone who is just beginning to research cancer. It is at this point that people can soon become lost in the cancer "jungle." At such a critical time in your life, just who do you trust?
Many websites sell all sorts of pills and potions. Some websites like quackwatch.com do nothing more than criticize alternative cancer treatments, while their willful and hypocritical inattention to accuracy is a disgrace. Other sites are overly technical and are virtually impossible to comprehend. How can you sort through it all? Who's right? Who's wrong? It's easy to become overloaded, and say "Forget it – this is impossible – I won't even bother."
When Sam Houston was battling Santa Anna in the 1830's and retreating daily, legend has it that he said, "It's time to draw a line in the sand." To which a cowhand serving under him said, "Well Captain, you've got plenty of sand to choose from." With so much readily accessible information on cancer and cancer treatments, choosing where to draw the line in the sand is harder than ever. It is my hope that Cancer – Step Outside the Box will be your "line in the sand" since it clearly and succinctly explains the facts and deceptions about cancer and cancer treatments.
Most people have neither the money nor the time to buy and read the numerous books that have been published on the medical, financial, and political aspects of cancer. I am optimistic that this book will serve as a concise, yet comprehensive, source of information on the intricate and reprehensible politics of cancer and help readers make informed decisions concerning nutrition, cancer prevention, and alternative cancer treatment protocols.
Cancer-Step Outside the Box has been called "the Bible of alternative cancer treatments" and proves, without a doubt, that cancer does not have to be a death sentence!!
Jonas Salk. Cured Polio and gave away the vaccine for free. When asked who owned the patent he said, "There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?" It is a disgrace you are not electronically giving these "cancer cures" to the public for free. You are JUST like the cancer industry. Greedy. Shame on you.
Good to find an expert who knows what he's tkalnig about!
Here moron he gave me a free one and I was about to buy one ANYWAY just to give him the money. Learn your facts before you debate.
For $30. Matt you at least need to research it yourself,then let others know. Read Gerson Diet ,Crazy Sexy Diet, Knockout,Never fear Cancer Again,and learn the benefits of Alkalizing your body.
thank you for writing this, inevitable i imagine someday i'll get cancer. and i'll need a book to break it down for me. where to go that can actually help! i hate the way cancer is treated in America. they are trying to kill us!
I have no money and my father-in-law is dying from liver cancer. Please send us an e-book or infomation as to what to do. The doctors told us that he has a couple weeks left.
Hi, I just read most of your website and i think your right on most of it. I just think you may be a LITTLE pushy on some things. Like doctors being taught lies. Maybe it was all they knew that had the possibility of saving cancer patents. Anyways, do you think its possible to send me a book?? I would really appreciate it. I could use it for my senior project. Thanks!
I have pancreatic carcinoma and it has metastatic to my right hip, liver and spleen. I am a heart transplant as of July 2005, The Doctors found out last June 2010. I need some advice. I have tried chemo for one week and some rad. The chemo made me real sick, so I won't take it any more. Please tell me what else I can do. Please help. Thanks
I heard You on Coast to Coast twice, and took many notes. I think that you are right on. But, If I was in the actual drivers seat and battling cancer, I would be really afraid in deciding which treatment I would pursue.
I like to think I would go Natural, but it is still a scary proposition.
Thanks, Joe
My daughter was diagnosed last week with metastatic lung cancer….we are exploring alternative therapies but they are way beyond what I can afford….is there any help out there beyond chemo and radiation that is reasonable???? Or any organizations that can help financially????
I beat stage 3 ovarian cancer ,three years now and have never felt better in my life. Could not afford many alternative treatments. Looked to the bible for guidance. Found many answers there and also Mind, Body and Soul medicine. Basically a vegetarian diet. Oriental mushroom compounds,epsom salt baths,essiac,meditation,relaxation execise and many other do at home treatments.Keeping my immune system boosted. Cold pressed flaxseed oil with lignans and raw unfiltered honey which contains beneficial enzymes.Alot of fresh fruits and veggies.Stay away from dairy.Plenty of fresh air and sunshine.Discontinue use of all unatural body care products. Love and forgive yourself and most of all ,sever relations with toxic people who keep you anxious down and depressed because they can't handle life.Do as much self healing reading as you can.Get at least 8 hours of uninterupted sleep.
Hi Ty,
I heard about your book last weekend from a friend who has a family member suffering from cancer. My grandfather was diagnosed with neuroendocrine carcinoma and has several tumors throughout his body. He has gone through one type of chemo in which the doctors assured us this treatment had a high success rate. When he went in for the results of the MRI or Scan, the chemo did not work, the tumors actually grew. Now they have him on another type of treatment and he was just admitted to the hospital yesterday for pneumonia. He is so weak and not eating. I feel as though we are just sitting by waiting for the doctors to tell us what to do next. I have done a little research on alternative treatments, but they are all so far away. When I heard about this book, I knew I had to find it. Is there a way to get an eBook? I looked online, but only found it sold as a hard copy.
Nevermind, I just saw the link to purchase the eBook on your site…lol
Thank you!
Bonjour Ty
Merci pour ce livre, ma mére est atteinte d'un cancer de l'estomac, mon papa est deja décédé, et je prie le Seigneur pour la vie de maman , j'ai la foi qu elle vivra et racontera les oeuvres de l Eternel, jesuis africaine et nous avons fait venir maman en france, mais ils veulent lui faire une chimio, nous avons dit non catégoriquement, je me suis renseignée auprés de certaines cliniques comme celles du Dr Maar, je suis étudiante ,donc je n'ai pas assez de moyens même avec les prêts bancaires ,je ne pourrais pas y arriver, je cherche un traitement alternatif accessible , aidez moi en me conseillant quelque chose svp, avez vous des e books en français?

I just learned I have cancer, and do not want to have radiation or any other things such as chemo. Why is it that as so as they give you the bad news they want you to make up one`s mind right away even before one can think out the situation as one`s mind is distorted at the time this news are given.
I know that the first thing one must look up to the L-rd for guidance, and learn about more options. I was sent this blog to read it for alternative ways to defeat cancer without the chemo, and radiation in which I think does one more harm then good.
I am on a very low fix income and live which is very difficult to live on 500.00 a month and yet have to pay for one`s own medications and Ins. That leaves me with 300.00 to live on in which one is just as one living out in the streets.
If possible can I obtain a free copy of your book or would you be willing for me to give you what I can afford to obtain the book. I am desperate!

SADANAND NAIMPALLI & MOHAN BALVALLY By Robert Kaye Published January 24, 2006 Live At Trinity Club, Bombay 1967Country & Eastern
The Trinity Club, according to this album's liner notes, written in retrospect by Pandit Naimpalli, was attended mostly by musicians; hence if one was to perform there, they'd better be good. That was certainly the case for these two young tabla players in the mid-'60s. The recording suffers from technological limitations; its dynamic level is subdued, and one can even hear extraneous noises like phones ringing in the background. Nor are the two tablas that distinctive in their respective tonalities. The playing is spectacular, though. Both Naimpalli and Balvally perform with emotion, and the sophistication that has made Indian percussionists legendary. Sparse accompaniment ("lehra") on harmonium and recitations by their guru, Pandit Taranath clearly inspired the men, then teenagers, that night. What makes listening to tabla records difficult for Westerners, and this disc is no exception, is that our ears usually hone in on the melodic instruments first. Yet it's the percussionists who are the star performers, the harmonium providing only repetitive counterpoint. When one refocuses on the hypnotic tablas, this album, despite its relative antiquity, will prove thoroughly rewarding.

The primary purpose of live remastering is to make it as safe, easy, and
convenient as possible for users to make their own customized version of
MX-14. The idea is that you use a LiveUSB or a LiveHD (a frugal
install to a
hard drive partition) as the development and testing environment. Add or
subtract packages and then when you are ready to remaster, use use a simple
remaster script or GUI to do the remaster and then reboot. If something goes
horribly wrong, simply reboot again with the rollback option and you
will boot into the previous environment.
Live Remastering
If you are using a LiveUSB then the LiveUSB is your target system. You can use it to install your customized version of MX-14 on other systems. If you are using a LiveHD then you will need to create a LiveUSB or a LiveCD from the LiveHD in order to install elsewhere.
System Requirements
There are three simple and straightforward system requirements that are needed to perform live remastering:
The boot device must be writable
The boot device must have enough free space to create a new linuxfs file
The development system must have been created using a "frugal install", not a fromiso install
In other words, the development system must be booted using a linuxfs file that is on a writable device that has enough free space to create a new linuxfs file.
Remastering plus Persistence
A persistent home or a persistent root can be useful if you are doing remastering. A persistent home is a handy place to hold your development environment if you don't want that environment to end up in your remaster. A persistent root is a handy way to save changes between reboots without having to go to the bother of doing a full remaster. Details, see Persistence.
Step by step
You typically will be in a Live session when you remaster. After you have made all the changes you want, click Start menu > System > RemasterCC and enter the root password. A dialog box opens with 4 buttons,
- Set up live persistence. If you made your bootable usb with unetbootin or similar tool, you can use this option to create a new persistence file which will let the user save changes made to the file system for future boots. This option isn't strictly needed if you just want to make a remaster, but its nice for saving changes between remasters.
- Configure live persistence. This will set how the liveUSB will save the persistence file. Although there is an automatic option, is does not currently work. The semi-automatic option is the default, whereby changes will be saved at logout. There is also a manual save option. Again, this is not strictly speaking required for the remaster to work.
- Save root persistence. This is how you save your filesystem changes to the persistence file in the event you elected a manual save option. This will also work if you just want to save changes immediately rather than waiting for logout in semi-automatic mode.
- Remaster. The remaster system will walk you through rolling up your filesystem changes, either made during the session or from your persistence files if available, into a new linuxfs file on the liveUSB. Your changes will now be part of the default linuxfs filesytem and will appear even if you do not choose the persistence options at boot.
Work your way carefully through the list, from top to bottom, following the directions that lead you through the process.
Live Remaster Boot Options
There are only two live remaster boot option because live remastering is almost entirely handled by a script or GUI. The only two options are to prevent live remastering and to rollback live remastering in case something goes horribly wrong.
Option | Description |
noremaster | don't remaster even when a linuxfs.new file is found |
rollback | return to previous version after a failed remaster |
For details, see Advanced: Remaster

Ortiz Blasts Governor's Failure to Fight Fat
Legislator calls for support for program to fight childhood obesity
February 10, 2003
Assemblyman Felix Ortiz, (Brooklyn), Chair of the Task Force on Food, Farm and Nutrition Policy plans to continue his fight to improve the nutritional health of the State's children despite the Governor's proposal to kill a law studying obesity.
Ortiz said, "The Governor needs to talk to his Health Commissioner. Obesity now kills more people than tobacco. Maybe the governor should use some tobacco money to fund my Childhood Obesity Prevention Legislation (A. 2800). I agree that we don't need a special study; the facts are out there - children as young as 10 are getting adult-onset (Type 2) diabetes. Obesity among children more than doubled in the last 20 years. The consequences of doing nothing will devastate our health care system and the future of our workforce. I didn't make up these dire predictions, the Surgeon General and the Secretary of Health and Human Services both have made obesity a number one health priority."
New York State has a higher childhood obesity rate than the national average and rates among Hispanic and African-American children are even higher: 22% of Black, 20% of Latino, and 19% of White sixth grade children are overweight in New York City. A recent study found that one in four obese children have early signs of Type 2 diabetes. The prevalence of this condition is also much higher in Hispanic and African-American populations.
Ortiz' Task Force will be sponsoring public hearings this year to highlight the problem of childhood obesity and efforts to prevent or reduce it. He will look at changes at school, changes in the marketplace, changes in the community, and assistance for parents.
"As Task Force Chair I have learned about the dramatic rise in obesity among our children and how corporations target their advertising to this vulnerable population, even at school. We shouldn't jeopardize our students' health by encouraging them to drink more soda to pay for new scoreboards advertising that soda in the gym. Our kids need to eat and drink and learn about healthy foods and have more opportunities for exercise before they all end up with diabetes and other obesity related medical problems. We must change this and that is why I introduced my legislation."
At a Task Force public hearing on childhood obesity last year, Kelly Brownell, Director of the Yale Center of Eating and Weight Disorders pointed out that the National Cancer Institute's budget for promoting fruits and vegetables is $1 million while one McDonald's promotional campaign was $500 million. The total national budget for nutrition education is only one-fifth the advertising budget for Altoid Mints. According to Dr. Brownell and other experts our families live in a "toxic" food and health environment where they are constantly encouraged to buy high-calorie, low-nutrition food and drink in ever growing portion sizes. At the same time fewer children are participating in physical activity in school or anywhere and the opportunities for activity may be more limited with pending budget cuts.
Although the Assembly unanimously approved Ortiz' bill last year, the Senate did not, and he plans to vigorously fight for final passage again this year despite the Governor's cavalier attitude toward the most pressing health problem facing our children and their families.

Has anyone tried to take classes overlapping? It is being recommended that I do this so I can get everything done, but I am nervous about the workload. It would be 5302 Curriculum with the last half of 5339- Role of the Administrator (a precepted course). Any advice?

Sinclair #375
Girl, born April 2005
Cerebral palsy and moderate mental delay
Listening to quiet music relaxes her. She seeks contact with another children from her group. She attends Daycare center for Children with disabilities but she is dependable on the care of adult. She repeats others's movements – giving a hand, clapping and raising both hands. She recognize her caregivers and rejoices in their presence. She will feel and do much better in a family setting where she will get a personal attention.
Because we only have this child's file for a short time, she will not be able to receive donations until a family is found for her.

My roses are being beseiged by nocturnal beetles. I have sprayed w/ Sevin susp in combo w/ my fungicides, but to no avail. Any suggestions? |

I don't believe you have much to worry about eliminating Japanese Beetles (JB) at time of the year, having done their damage are now over-wintering as grubs in the ground. To control and eradicate them its necessary to understand how JB exist, with timing playing a major role. The grubs spend approximately 10 months of its life as a partially grown grub in the soil. They are most vulnerable at this time and when they need to be eliminated, before they make their appearance above ground. Japanese Beetles generally make their appearance at about the same time each year, appearing in the Midwest about early-June lasting to early fall. Eating holes in the buds flowers and feed on tissue between the veins of leaves. What now seems to be the choice of many rosarians for this pest, is an early application of Bayer Advanced Lawn "Complete" Insect Killer for Soil and Turf, granules spread over the rose beds and surrounding area starting in mid May and again in August and thoroughly watered in. For only above ground control, use Bayer Advanced All-In-One Rose and Flower Insect Killer and/or Merit, 1/8 teaspoon per gallon, applied ever other week starting in June. Mature beetles pick them off and drown them in a container of soapy water. Crushing them is said to release a substance that attracts more Japanese beetles. The use of traps seems to attract more beetles than they actually trap. Spraying with Sevin, while killing Japanese beetles on a plant, will also eradicate many beneficial insects. Good Luck, |
Ron, Thanks for the detailed response. I think I have Asiatic Beetles, but I am sure the cure is the same. Glenn |

It doesn't take as much of this silicone gel to cover your legs as it does other lotions and creams. A little goes a long way. I've had mine a several years now and the scent is still fresh. I find the best way to apply it to freshly shaven legs is to thoroughly dry the skin, use a small amount in the palm of your hands and spread lightly..no need to rub. You have to make sure and wash your hands afterwards. In a few min. when it soaks in/dries my legs are soo smooth. =) I find that it doesn't do well on my arms(which I don't usually shave/wax)though, but I only apply moisturizers to my elbows anyways so it really doesn't matter. I remember when Gap use to have a silicone gel as well at one point in time, mmmm.
I asked for the Velocity Shower Gel and received this instead, even though I had read the reviews and didn't want it. As others I mistakenly used it as shower gel and wondered why the stuff wasn't foaming up. When I found that it was meant to be used as a lotion I applied it to my legs and expected the icky feeling that others below had discribed. However, after a while, the icky feeling went away and left me with smooth skin. I presume it will last long as well since it is a silicone formula.
I hated this stuff. Although I like the smell, when I wear this, it feels like my skin is wrapped in seran wrap. It can't breath or something. I'm pretty sure it's from all the silicones in it. When I wore this, I felt the need to take a shower immediately. Just left that grimy, sweaty feeling.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I love the Velocity fragrance but find the perfume a bit strong. so, I have taken to using just the body gel and I love how it feels on my skin. I do have dry skin and it works great for me.
I agree with the other reviews that this is best for Winter on very dry skin. After you put it on you feel kind of sticky for a little while. I love the scent so I think for Summer I'll stick to the fragrance and bath foam.
very interesting slick stuff. I love the scent, but the texture reminded me a bit of lube. its definetly good when your skin is winter dry. but i have the feeling that this tube will last me a little while. because a tiny bit will moisturize alot! maybe i'll get it again.
greasy greasy greasy...if i want to feel like this i will bathe in a vat of baby oil. the smell is a bit off. not quite like the regular velocity citrusy smell. --------------UPDATE: I used to love mk products but found out a lot of interesting information on pinktruth.com regarding the products and company. Turns out they are a bunch of scam artists after all. So sad.

I was introduced to the world we all know and love by a former of student of mine a couple of months ago. How naive was I to believe that she was just a girl in love with her boyfriend Edward Cullen. Four books, a movie, and countless fanfics later, I know exactly who Edward Cullen is. :)
Edward leaves Bella, much like the beginning of 'New Moon', however, this time, they are all human and there is quite the twist. Why did Edward leave Bella? And what secret is Bella keeping when he leaves?
Can they make a nightmare turn into a dream?
I hope everything turns out okay. Poor Bella and baby. The good news is that when Edward sees her in the hospital, she can't run away. They will have to talk about their issues. I think that it will be Carlisle and Charlies' pov next.
It'll be okay. I promise. Just a bumpy ride.
Thank you for the review!
I can NOT believe you left it like this! Too bad for me that I enjoy your story so much that I will have to just wait impatiently like everyone else for the next update. Please do it soon. I NEED to find out how Edward is going to react and how their reunion will go.Author's Response:
Oh, the ending of the next chapter is more evil. But Edward does find out!
Thank you so much for reviewing!
Please post NOW!!! I have to know what Edward's reaction is.
LOL! I submitted it last night. Thank you for reviewing!
You definitely have not made it any better...but it was a necessary chapter nontheless.
I think Carlise came up with a great alternative plan. I also agree that Edward would willingly banish himself for Bella. He is just that kind of person.
I am sure Edward would, although Carlisle may have wanted to ask him first :( Still, it was a good plan for any number of reasons.
Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!
I am sooooo happy there was some good that came out of this. Little baby Swan-Cullen is just what they need to help them get through what is happening to poor Bella. Maybe you really do believe in happy endings!
I honestly do!
Thank you so much for reading and reviewing!
You did a wonderful job (yet again). You can continue to bounce up and down like Alice would after Bella accepted an invitation to go shopping.
I loved how you made baby Swan-Cullen have his copper hair and her chocolate doe eyes (their most identifiable characteristics--clumsiness doesn't count quite yet). I also loved how you had Edward call her little love. Great idea having Charlie listen in--now he knows Edward's intentions were honorable.
Eavesdropping is usually not of the good, but, in this case, it was more effective than any conversation that Charlie and Edward could have had.
Little Love. ::: sigh ::: Part of that came from his pet name for Bella, and part came from the fact that I call my son that! Still, I thought it fit with the story.
Thanks for reviewing!
I am far too invested in this story to leave it...so you are stuck with me. I can't wait to find out what Edward names the baby!
I should have totally seen what you were going to name the baby! It makes total sense! Bella would probably love it too. Hell, I even like the name. It has a nice ring to it.
I really liked the interactions between Edward and Esme and Edward and Charlie. They seemed to be sweet, personal moments. The comment about naming babies everyday was classic...like Elizabeth (lame joke, I know)
You brought back the sadness again. I'm glad that Bella is fighting her way back. It has been so long since we last heard from her (otherwise it would be like new moon from Ocober to January). Oh well, at least it isn't as sad as it was before.
At least now there is hope, right?
Thanks so much for reviewing!
Yay she's really awake! The scene was just how I imagined it. I thought that it was kind of funny how she was still worried that Charlie was going to be so mad at her. How could she not know that he is just so happy to know that she is alive and doing well? I can't wait for edward and bella in the same room!
LOL! It's just a gut reaction. She wakes up and suddenly she's confronted with so much - including running away from her dad. She just hasn't had the chance too really think yet and realize he's going to be happier that she's alive than angry she ran away.
Edward and Bella in the same room - it's coming.
I'm glad Bella wasn't mad at Angela for telling the Cullens. It could have gone either way if it was anyone else. It seems like the next couple of talks are going to be really tough on Bella.
I just want to see them (Bella and Edward and Elizabeth) happy and healthy in the future.
This was a good chapter...even if it wasn't the talk we all were waiting for, it was realistic, which was your aim. I definitely wouldn't want to deal with Edward yet myself if I was Bella.
I am glad you understand why I am going down this path.
Good conversation. I'm glad that everything is on the way to being okay with them. It seems like everyone is going about their own way to make edward look better. Now please get us to THE conversation soon!
Happy b-day early! I can't believe that you are almost 18. You have this maturity in your writing that made me peg you older than what you really are.
I am so sorry that there was a misunderstanding on my age. My birthday is the 18th, but I'm well older! LOL! MUCH!
I am glad you felt I did the converstaion justice!
Wow, you are sure creative when it comes to finding ways to avoid THE conversation. Happy late b-day....even if you aren't 18 ;)
Are you sure that Edward and Bella will talk in the next chapter? Maybe Bella and the custodian need to iron out some issues first (hehe). I'm just kidding. I'm not bitter; I am just anxiously waiting for the moment when they will get back to each to each other again.
LOL! I understand.
They will see each other in the next chapter. That I can promise...
Thank you for reviewing!
Their first interaction was very sweet and beautiful. I totally called it when I said that they wouldn't have the conversation yet. However, I have to give you credit for not bringing in the janitor (haha). Can't wait for the next chapter...
I'm happy with this chapter. Real things happened and real conversations were had. I would still like the conversation with Edward and Bella though...but you are doing a very good job of stalling. It's not even making me anxious anymore. I'm just trying to see how long you will be able to hold out. I'm rooting for you to drag this out as long as you can...hehe. 8D
I honestly am not purposely stalling... this is just the story that I hear in my head! It's so hard because it seems like she's been awake for months, but it's only been about 48 hours. That's a lot to take in in such a short time!
You better have your laptop behind the steel reinforced door because you aren't allowed out until you give us the happy ending (hehe)! Thanks for the much anticipated talk. I thought that everything would be okay when Bella let him talk first. I though that he would be able to convince her of his love for her...apparently he couldn't make her trust him....you believe in happy endings!!!! I can't believe she was able to say that she didn't want him in the end.
Ah, this isn't about love or about wanting someone. It's about trust (which you mentioned as well). Trust is what enabled her to say that.
I'm glad Jasper is stepping up. Before he seemed to be there to add more drama that wasn't related to Bella and Edward. Now he has some great advice. Hopefully edward will listen. That tackle sounded awesome.
Jasper knows how to get his point across like nobody's business! He is exactly what Edward needed at this time.
you DO believe in happy endings! Thanks. I am sorry about the story ending, but I'm glad that it is going to end on a high note...at least it seems that way as of now.
I do! I do!
Thanks for reading and reviewing!
I'm glad that te vase is slowly getting glued back together now. If it han survive it, it will be stronger than ever.
I am so glad you felt that the vase analogy worked!
Thank you for reading and reviewing!
I loved the ending! It was perfect and sweet and resonated with permanence.
I am so glad you enjoyed it!
Have a wonderful holiday!
What if Bella had went back to Phoenix after Edward left her? What if Laurent had found her and Jake and the other wolves weren't around to protect her? My version of New Moon. Picks up after Edward and the rest of the Cullens leave Forks.
Poor Bella and Edward. Of course he deserves what she did to him because...you know. I hope the family goes after her and explains the situation. An eternity is a long time to go without love.
We've all turned the pages on the four blank months in New Moon. Edward left Bella in the woods and told her didn't want her anymore; his arrogance expected that she would just move on with her life. What he never expected was that she wouldn't be able to move on any more than he would. An angry Bella is something he couldn't fathom. What he didn't take into account is that Bella believes that true love is worth fighting for, and she's going to fight to keep Edward and her family. The Cullen abandonment hurt her deeply, but she's turned that pain into rage. What will happen when Bella decides to let them know she's not willing to let them walk away and leave her behind? How will they handle one mere human girl that's extremely pissed off, and willing to do whatever takes to bring them back? The saying "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" has never rang more true. Bella's angry and on the warpath. Not even a clan of vampires will be able to stop her.
"My heart may have fractured when he left me, but I adamantly refuse to let it shatter. I'm stronger than that, and I'm ready to get nasty. This is going to be a side your family has never seen out of me. I hope you're prepared, because when I'm done taking your stupid, arrogant brother down a few notches, I'm coming after you. Yes, you heard me correctly. You may be small, fast, and graceful, but I'm filled with enough rage at this point to go vampire on your pixie, ballerina ass!" ~Bella - Chapter 2: Voicemails
Special Thanks to achelle131 for the amazing banner!
can't wait to see what happens next...
You and me both. Bella's not giving it all up to me yet. She only letting me see a little a time. She's really become a stubborn little thing. ;)
Thanks for the read and review. I appreciate each and every one.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking

Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Murray!
Facts about Murray
- Breed: Papillon/Pomeranian Mix
- Color: Silver & Tan (Yorkie Colors)
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Murray's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Meet Murray! He is a 1-2 year old male, Papillon/Pomeranian mix. Murray's coat is soft and healthy with a gorgeous sable coloring. He weighs about 7 ½ lbs and will not get any bigger. Murray was rescued from the Devore shelter where so many of our little rescues are found.
Murray is low key and easy going. He is content to lay on his bed when nothing much is going on but once you get up he is right at your heel to accompany you in whatever adventure awaits. He is well behaved in the house and although he is still young he is well past the puppy mischief. He is also fine to be left on his own and does not have separation anxiety. Murray is a very smart in tune type of dog.
Murray gets along wonderfully with all the other dogs in his foster home, both big and small. He is polite, appropriate and gentle in his demeanor. He is friendly and social with people and seemed to take a special liking to my teenage son. We are thinking Murray may have lived with kids in his previous home. Murray enjoys running errands in the car and is quiet and well behaved. And like most dogs he loves to go for walks. He is not much of a barker and will only bark at appropriate times, like a doorbell for example. Murray is a flexible lil guy that will fit into many different types of home/family situations.
Murray is neutered, micro-chipped, rabies, dewormed and up to date on his vaccinations. If you would like to meet Murray please contact Theresa at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 951 852-7999. Please visit our website at http://www.treasuredtailsrescue.com/ to find out more about our adoption process and adopt fees.
Other Pets at Treasured Tails Canine Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Murray, a Temecula Papillon/Pomeranian dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Papillon/Pomeranian for sale in Temecula, or seeking a Papillon/Pomeranian dog from a breeder in Temecula.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Temecula already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Temecula breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Papillon/Pomeranian breeders who help with Papillon/Pomeranian rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Temecula paves the way for another one to be saved.

In 2007, Al Harris, founder of Blue Ventures (BV), was elected for an Ashoka Fellowship—and it's easy to see why. Indeed, Harris, who has been working on BV since he was a student, has made enormous strides since then. When
SocialBusiness.org profiled Blue Ventures in late January, I was amazed at the breadth of this award-winning organization's initiatives. Carbon offsetting, ecotourism, sustainable aquaculture, marine biodiversity conservation, environmental education and community capacity building are all under Al Harris' and Blue Venture's radar.
Here, Al Harris shares his invigorating story on how he started BV, what tribulations he's had to overcome and how the team stays inspire on a day-to-day basis.
Four Questions with Al Harris
1. How did the idea for the business model come about?
Back at university I was something of a biodiversity nut, desperate to find a career as a conservationist. As an undergrad I was lucky enough to receive research funding that took me to some of the poorest parts of the tropical developing world, trips that opened my eyes to the critical need for conservation in some of the wildest places I'd ever seen. Though I was equally struck by the lack of funding available to support conservation in the areas of the world that needed it most. So that sowed the seed of an idea that stayed with me throughout university. But when I came to graduate, given that I was a 23-year-old with absolutely zero experience, no one in their right mind was going to fund me to start my own conservation organisation—for very good reason! So short of meeting a millionaire philanthropist, social entrepreneurship was really the only solution that I could find for catalyzing conservation—right from the start we planned it as a tool to provide sustainable finance for conservation, reliably, year in year out. We've had ups and downs along the way (military coups, cyclones—the usual kind of thing!) but by and large the model has paid off, and we now have an incredible team of over 50 conservationists working worldwide.
2. How did you decide to join this sector?
I set up BV as a student—so this is the only sector I've ever 'worked' in.
3. How do you get your inspiration?
As a team we get a lot of our inspiration from within, working together and developing concepts for new projects, building on the experience we develop year on year. Also, when your job takes you to some of the most stunningly beautiful places on earth, above and below the waves, you can be pretty spoiled for inspiration. We see both the good and the bad—pristine coral reefs that no one has ever dived before, as well as ecosystems that are so needlessly degraded that it's almost unbearable to survey them. And then from day to day, after a grueling stint at the computer, inspiration comes from the view from our garden here in Antananarivo, Madagascar's manic capital. On a clear day we can see over 50 kilometers over the chaos of the city, and way beyond to shimmering paddy fields and horizon after horizon of mountains. And every evening the sun sets right in front of us—it's quite a sight.
4. How do you reset yourself to be creative? Do you have any rituals?
Heading out to those hills beyond the paddy fields, and staying there for as long as it takes!

Looking to understand the realities and history of the current housing mortgage crisis? Author and trend spotter Kevin Kelly recommends a recent episode of This American Life.
By far the best explanation I've heard of the Housing Mortage/Credit Crisis is -- improbably -- a podcast from the motherlode of story-telling on NPR, This American Life. This podcast is a bit different from their usual slice-o-life stories in that they try to explain something extremely complex and abstract -- but in personal stories. The episode is called The Giant Pool of Money and it's worth at least an hour of your time on your next commute.A terrific and terrifying episode. If anyone else out there is collecting personal stories of how the housing mortgage crisis is affecting people and communities around the nation, I'd love to have those links.

Hi all. I started a lasagna bed a few months ago and there seems to be lots of weeds growing in it. I want to plant a tree (cryptomeria black dragon) in this spot in the next month or so and have several questions.
Are they weeds? Should I yank them out? Or are they plants that I should carefully take out and transplant? How do I stop them from returning? Thanks in advance for your thoughts! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes, those are weeds and the tree is especially a weed! That is "princesstree", Paulownia tomentosa, and it is a category ONE invasive plant in Georgia. |
- Posted by fluffyflowers z8 GA (My Page) on Mon, Aug 31, 09 at 17:22
Holy cats! I'll be sure to rip that weed tree out of the compost heap and toss it straight into the trash bin as soon as I get home. Thanks so much! Now, how do I keep those wretched weeds from returning? Should I go ahead and cover with newspaper & pinestraw and plant my tree? |
Now, how do I keep those wretched weeds from returning? Number one is: don't let them go to seed. Rip them out right away. Number two: prevent any seeds from germinating. That can be done using a pre-emergent (preen is one) or using corn gluten (a non chemical approach). It would be helpful to figure out the name of the weed to determine when it germinates. It is tedious, but you could flip through the link below to try and find it. Or just assume that it germinates in the spring and follow instructions for spring germinating weeds. Scratching up the area now with a hoe might get a bunch more to germinate and then you can kill them. Newly germinating seeds are easy to pick out or destroy by gently raking them out. In general, soil disturbance causes seeds to germinate because you expose them to light. Perhaps someone else could chime in on the layer of plastic approach. |

Well, I'm just so proud of myself :-) Our local chapter of the CRFG in N. San Diego county held a grafting class this morning (thank you so much Ben Pierce, Cory Krell and Dottie Logan for all of your efforts to put this class together for us novices). I grafted two Dapple Dandy pluots onto St. Julian (which was interesting that we weren't using Citation, so I'll be very interested to see how these trees do on St. Julian compared to all my interspecifics on Citation). Well, really just one. Cory showed me how with the first one, and then he walked me through the second tree that I did all by myself! I think being a nurse and a quilter helped a lot. I'm hoping for a take on at least one of them. I'm now on the hunt for a nice basic grafting book, so if any of you could recommend a good reference book, that would be helpful. It was fun to see all the different techniques and tools used. I really did like Cory's method as he made it easy not to fail. I did a cleft graft technique, and we both ended up getting the cambium layers to align very nicely, so I'm hopeful. I'm excited about grafting some citrus, next!

That is great you got to go to a class. I really want to give it a go. I have the rootstock growing and the scion in the fridge. LOL First mistake, I thought I could remember which was which so now if the graft works, I will have to wait for it to fruit to find out what it is. |
Patty: It is such a rush to do your first graft, esepcially when it starts growing! Not to be a wet towel, but citrus is not what I would choose after pluots. Hopefully you can get a direct tutorial from an experienced citrus grafter, because I have NEVER had any of my citrus take, and I am now 100% on apples and pears, and about 90% on plums/pluots. My understanding is it helps if you cut the branch to be grafted, and then wait several weeks for it to recover and try to grow again before you graft onto it. But I have not tried this yet. But just straight grafting, mine all turn black and die. Carla in Sac |

I'll make sure I graft citrus with one of our experienced CRFG folks. Or, I can go over to Clausen's Nursery and have one of their grafters help me out. I think T bud grafting is supposed to be more successful with citrus? Thanks for the tip! I'll add it to my grafting notes. Hoping I can find a good grafting resource book, too. Patty S. |

Well, one week after grafting my Dapple Dandy scionwood to St. Julian A rootstock, I took a peek under the paper bag. The buds on the scionwood are starting to swell and I see peeks of green. I hope this means my grafts are taking :-) Kind of excited about this. My husband has resorted to calling me the "mad scientist". My Ronde fig cuttings are also starting to show a bit of bud swell, too. Pretty excited. Patty S. |
Great work. I've been able to top work some ohf333 stock by digging it up early, potting it, cut of previous scion, grafted max red bartlett onto it and now, 3 week later have 5" growth from 3 of them. One has emerged 1/2" but is struggling. After viewing youtube's many videos on the subject, I felt confident doing the procedure and they're taking! I encourage folks to attempt grafting and budding as it can be pretty simple. |

Patty- Did they supply the cuttings and the rootstock? That seems like a very interesting class. I am running out of room as well and I know of TONS of different varieties of fruit in my neighborhood that I could use. Im in Orange County in Little Saigon and there are so many different fruit trees just hanging over fences. People just let their trees grow wild around here..hehe I found a 5 in one Citrus tree at HD yesterday. I could not believe the size of it with 2 different types of oranges, 1 lemon, 1 lime and 1 tangerine. It was awesome! I too want to graft my citrus! Good luck!! |

Our CRFG chapter bought the rootstock, and charged each member $5.00 to cover the cost of the rootstock and soil (all were planted up in 1 gal containers). Then, various members brought in scionwood, so we had a nice choice of apple, pear and stone fruit scionwood and roostocks. So, we each had a one on one teaching session. It was just a great, great class. We have a very nice CRFG chapter here in N. San Diego county, thanks to all the dedicated officers and volunteers. Patty S. |
"Took another peek under the bag, and both my grafts are pushing little green buds through the Parafilm!! I'm so excited." It is thrilling to see it work. Of course there's plenty of science behind it, but it almost seems like magic to take a stick (or dormant bud) fasten it on a tree, and viola a new tree grows from it. It is amazing. If you think about it, it almost has the flavor of a children's fantasy story - Jack's magical plum tree was almost dead, but he took a stick from it, whittled the end and stuck it on another tree. And it came to life and grew, becoming his same old friend. |

I know, olpea. That's kind of how I feel :-) I know so many folks on this list are very experienced grafters, and this is probably second nature to them. But to have my first two graft attempts take is pretty exciting. I'm sure I would not have had this kind of success without such great instruction for sure, so the credit really goes to the CRFG members who gave their time and expertise for free to the rest of us less experienced members. I know, and it is magical! I was an OB nurse for many years, and that magic experience of a new baby never faded for me. Maybe that's why I like gardening so much! Patty S. |
Story goes that when Fr. Ravalli first turned the soil in Stevensville, MT in the 1840's Natives would sit in anticipation, watching the lines in which the seeds were planted for those first signs of new growth. I'm still the same way, and grafting is even better! It's like Christmas, but the gift keeps on giving so you never have to sit there in your jammies and say "Is that all?" Merry Christmas! :-)M |

Thats funny. I was thinking the same thing today that everyday is like Christmas when I wake up to go outside to peek at my trees. Sometimes I even have trouble falling asleep at night! Christmas everyday except for when the bugs steal the presents..hehe |
Hoosierquilt, Great job. And you probably know more than me about grafting, but FYI you could have cut your scion into pieces with 2 buds each and grafted many more branches if you wished. |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Tue, Apr 3, 12 at 9:42
Yup, ramble, we did get that info in class, but for our first attempts, the teachers told us having a little more to hold on to would make it easier to get a good graft first time around. Once you're proficient at cleft grafting, you can use a much smaller piece of scionwood, and then be able to graft either more trees or more branches. Patty S. |

Hi Patty, congratulations on your success with Dapple Dandy pluot. With warm regards from Spain |

4,264 new cars were registered yesterday, on the first day of the new 142 registration plate, compared to 1,924 on the first day last year.
SIMI had previously outlined its hopes that more than 4,000 cars would be registered in the first week of the new 142 year.
In addition, 292 new vans were sold, compared to 138 on the same day last year.
Director General Alan Nolan said, "We knew yesterday was going to be one of the busiest days of the year for car sales, with additional cars being added to the car hire fleets, but we didn't expect such a good start compared to last year, which was the first year for the new split-registration plate. In fact, yesterday has turned out to be the highest day for new car registrations this year and nobody expected that."
"Although it has to be put in the context that we are starting from a low base. it is clear that an increasing number of consumers are returning to the market. Dealers are currently competing for customers with strong new car offers and a wider range of finance options and it's evident that consumers are seeing the benefit of the new mid-year registration period. Overall, it is a sign that we're seeing an improvement in the economy."

Manchester's Successor To Silicon
Four weeks ago I was in Manchester at a meeting of the North-West Technology Network (NWTN). The meeting was mostly devoted to high-tech start-up activity. Last week it occurred to me that we had missed a trick.
What kick-started that thought was a report from MIT that it had developed a single-transistor frequency multiplier made out of graphene.
What's that got to do with start-up activity? The technology must be years from commercial exploitation.
Not so, according to MIT, its graphene device development is mostly based on relatively standard chip processing technology and using it to develop a commercial product "may take a year of work, maximum two," according to Tomas Palacios, assistant professor at MIT's department of electrical engineering.
So what's all this got to do with Manchester? WellManchesterUniversity's Professor Andre Geim and Dr Kostya Novoselov invented graphene five years ago.
While anything capable of being used in a commercial product with 'a year of work, maximum two' is grist to the mill of start-up companies.
Graphene is a mono-layer of carbon atoms that resembles nano-chicken wire. Effectively it is unrolled carbon nanotube which is a candidate for combining fast nano-carbon semiconductors with the semiconductor industry's standard planar process.
MIT says the technology has the capability of increasing processor speeds by 100 times delivering practical systems in the 500 to 1,000 gigahertz range. Key to the usefulness of graphene is the fact that electron mobility in graphene is 100 times faster than electron mobility in silicon.
The MIT project is currently being partially funded by the MIT Institute for Soldier Nanotechnology and by the Interconnect Focus Centre program, and it has already attracted the interest of "many other offices in the federal government and major chip-making companies," says Palacios, "in physics today, graphene is, arguably, the most exciting topic."
Now here's something real, and promising, and British to get excited about and which the UK government should be looking to get behind.
There is talk of the government making available £1 billion to go to VCs to stimulate start-ups.
Here, in Manchester, there could hardly be a more massive opportunity to use some of that £1 billion to develop the successor to silicon.

not wishing to be a party pooper but why graphene in 1-2 yrs when GaAs, SiGe, GaN have all taken so much longer to get to where there at ? Also, think of the industrialisation effort to qualify a 500GHz technology in the time domain – what bandwidth scope would I need ?
April 07, 2009 13:16
As a (very) Old Manc I could get quite excited about the idea that graphene might offer a PC that makes my current machines look pedestrian.
However, Government grants and controlled by the advice given to the elected few by the permanent many. The permanent many have lots of reasons not to deviate from the well trodden path.
You are up against the Peter principle and Harry's corollary: no one whe has reached his level of incompetance will promote anyone under him who could be a threat to him. Result: always say "No". That way you are never involved in a failure.
One way out would be to save a billion by dispensing with them. You might get half the project going to waste, but you would end up with half being successes and a bank balance exactly as it would have been.

When I walked into the office on a Monday morning and looked at my funnel of future deals, I felt really good. Like "get another cup of coffee and chat about the weekend with the receptionist" good. I had over 50 open deals. 50! Far more open deals than anyone else in the office and I walked with corresponding swagger.
Now, fast forward three weeks. I'd only closed two of those deals. All of that possibility had only materialized into results twice.
That comfort and glut of potential had robbed me of the urgency of converting possibilities into results.
Turned out I'd believed my own hype and that blankie of possibility was robbing me blind.
So I got rid of 30 deals in three days. I asked the honest question: "Is this actually a deal, or does it just look like it could be at some point down the road?" I called and turned the screws on the prospects I thought were open deals and directly asked for the business. I applied enough pressure to learn if they were just being nice or actually seriously considering my proposal.
You know all of the possibilities that the world has presented to you? All of the things that lie ahead of you and all the amazing things that you believe you'll do with your life? Rubbish. You probably won't do them. You probably won't put in the work to close the deal. You probably won't lean into the pain long enough to break through. You might, but, let's be honest, you probably won't. You're used to getting participation trophies for trying and that is how we've been trained to look at results. "We gave it our best shot."
There is a very real chance that this amazing feeling of having all that potential, all those possibilities ahead of you is the reward that will be enough for you. That feeling is intoxicating and is so much easier than actually realizing your potential.
But a feeling is all it is. And for some, that will be enough.
But, for others, that feeling will be demon they wrestle for years, for decades to come.
The demon that says, "you don't have what it takes to actually do those things, do you?"
The demon that says, "think about how much you'd have to give up to even try, just to TRY, when you know you'll probably fail!"
The demon that says, "your possibilities are your reward, those results are for people with more talent than you."
But those demons don't know how to deal with the soul willing to risk comfort for the chance at capturing potential. While they may grow louder as you take that first step, they're quieted by the second. And silenced by the third.
It is only in action that our possibilities are worth acknowledging. It is only in daring that our potential has any worth. And it is a choice that we must learn to make every single day.
So here's to you and to the possibilities that lie before you.
But most of all, here's those brave enough to see those possibilities become your reality.Tweet
It is an age old question with a lot of creative answers, but I'd like to prove that the chicken's actual reason for crossing the road was in fact a strategic move all about perspective that could be gained from the other side.
This photo was taken on the corner of 27th and 5th Ave.
This photo was also taken on the corner of 27th and 5th Ave.
Both photos were taken at 8:15am looking north, the direction I was heading.
One of these photos shows the canyons of Midtown South emerging on the horizon with no memorable benchmark between me and the horizon.
One of these photos presents a clear and unmistakable point of reference by which to measure my progress against. It also gave me a lot more motivation to keep fighting through all of the pedestrian traffic jams that were between me and my destination.
So, when thinking about the year behind and the year ahead, sometimes you just have to make like a chicken and cross the road because the perspective you need of the Empire ahead is on the other side.Tweet
"Entrepreneurship and investing is 100% about managing your own psychology." - Chris Sacca
So how do you manage your psychology using negative stimuli? Chatted a little bit about it in today's Forbes post.Tweet
When Bruce Wayne decides to get back out on the streets of Gotham as the Batman, he does so because others need him to. He does so because it seems like the right thing to do and that he is the right person to do it. All of those things are true. There isn't another super hero waiting in the wings on. But, (spoiler alert) when he comes up against the pure evil of Bane, he stands no chance the first time around. The reason was simply the "WHY"
In one of the best TEDTalks out there, Simon Sinek talks about the difference between how good companies and great companies talk about what they do. Good companies explain what they do and then share how they do it. Great companies explain WHY they do what they do and the beliefs that back their motivation and then may also mention how and what they do to help round out the story. It is an 18 minutes well worth the time.
In thinking about Bane's WHY vs. Batman's WHY, it was crystal clear that Bane would win out in their first encounter (that and there was almost two hours left in the movie…)
His belief was forged in something bigger than himself and a quest that had nothing to do with personal gain. Bane's belief was the playing out of a vision that would last much longer after he was gone. The belief behind Batman's WHY was conjured at best.
When advising start-ups or taking a look at any new projects myself, the first thing that I am learning to ask is WHY. WHY does this project, opportunity, or company care more about the problem they're solving and the solution their providing than everyone else? WHY am I willing to turn down other initiatives and potentially also successful endeavors to see this one through? WHY does this campaign towards something that others are also considering get their first and with more gusto?
If I can't answer that question, I too will end up missing a vertebrae and exiled to a professional living hell until I find the strength to act first on belief and then out of confidence in that belief.Tweet
Believe it or not, it's halftime. The craziness that began 2012 has't stopped for 6 months and now you are on the down hill side of this calendar year. Everything that you said, "This will happen in 2012″ that hasn't, only has 26 weeks left to be accomplished. The way this year will be remembered hangs in the balance and you've been given a moment here at halftime to make sure that you don't let 2012 slip through your fingers.
Let's think through your performance in the first half. You took some good shots, you push hard on some of the new ideas that you'd been tinkering with, and you even exploited those that stood in your way and made their defense look weak. But, you also took more time to get to the goal than you needed, your pace started great but was dragging by the time the end of the 2nd quarter rolled around, and you allowed others to walk all over you when it came time to block their blatant attempts at accelerating your defeat.
So right now, in this slow moment between halves when everyone else is sipping Gatorade and reliving their one highlight moment of the first half, this is the chance that you've been asking for to clean the slate from what was and take command of what's to come. It's right now that you can lock in on the strategies that worked in the first half and get rid of the ones that didn't and the ones that held you down. Right now is all that matters because right now is all you have.
This year won't be won out on the battlefield, this year will be won the place that all great victories are won: in the moments of preparation and commitment in the in between.
Hustle now or forever hold your peace.Tweet

We're bad. We dug up a certain former love triangle to fill in the blanks of the ''send a personalized message from Hilary'' feature on ''acinderellastory.com.'' Is it our fault that this is how the message from Ms. Duff (in her actual voice!) to her onetime sweetie came out?
''Once upon a time there lived a very special mack daddy named Aaron, who lived in an enchanting, magical, mystical land called Florida. He wore only the finest clothes -- like phony bling-bling that don't cost a thing-thing -- and spent most of the time doing really adventurous things, like flirting with everyone who has a pulse. Clearly, something was missing until magically, he met the love of his life -- a diva named Lindsay -- who fell in love with his totally irresistible half-man, half-boy peach fuzz and then they lived happily ever after.''

Daniel Alter, Jeff Forsyth Launch Vetted as Multi-Platform Banner (EXCLUSIVE)
After being one of the more proactive producers when it comes to landing the film rights to hit video game properties, Daniel Alter is ready build a brand in the online entertainment arena.
Alter and Jeff Forsyth have set up Vetted as a multi-platform production shingle, based in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, that will produce a slate of films that can also be spun off as comicbooks, video games and web series.
One of the first film projects the company will develop and produce is "Crave," a script that it acquired from writer Keith Domingue, revolving around the last of a mysterious band of vampires who must rise from the shadows and fight one last epic evil. Domingue is repped by Benderspink.
In addition to the "Crave" film, Vetted also plans to begin production on several scripted series across all genres that would launch on the comapny's own website first. VettedMedia.net will start rolling out the first shows this summer.
Vetted will back each digital series with a sizable budget of around $600,000 to $700,000, with each project intended to be produced as 10-minute episodes that will then be combined into a full-length feature that can be distributed on VOD platforms. In each case, Vetted will seek out marketing partners to integrate into the shows or help finance the productions.
Alter envisions Vetted to become its own brand the way Machinima was able to build an online following among 18-34-year-old males for video game-related programming, or how AwesomenessTV has found a young teen and tween fanbase through comedy and other online YouTube series. It also comes as large media networks like Maker Studios are launching the careers of new stars on YouTube.
"We're truly entering a whatever-whenever era of vertical content delivery that can no longer be controlled by the currently reigning multimedia conglomerates," Alter said. "This is the chance to build and own a brand platform, which are going to be the entertainment destinations of the future."
The first shows being developed for the Vetted online network include a news series for YouTube about the video game industry that will bow around this summer's E3 gaming confab in Los Angeles, as well as a sketch comedy series and talk shows.
Vetted, backed by a round of private equity, will develop its own video games in-house either based on original ideas or from film or other projects it produces.
Before founding Vetted, Alter and fellow producer Adrien Askarieh set up a film adaptation of video game "Kane & Lynch," which Gerard Butler is attached to headline for Avi Lerner's Nu Image. Alter also produced horror pic "The Apparition."
Alter is also an executive producer on "Agent 47," a follow up to the actioner "Hitman," also based on a popular game, that Fox International is financing with Rupert Friend replacing Paul Walker in the lead. Zachary Quinto and Hannah Ware also star. Askarieh is also a producer on the project.
In December, Alter set up Alter Ego Entertainment as a management and production company in Las Vegas to take advantage of Nevada's more attractive tax incentives to lure film, TV and other productions to the state.
Forsyth's resume includes writing and producing the extreme sports documentary "Travis Pastrana's Baja Diaries" for the Fuel Network and adapting Tokyopop's manga "Dramacon."
