SDGF - Pirate Isles - 16Fighting off a wave of dizziness caused by the realization of what had just happened, Zero grabbed Song by the arm, preventing her from charging from the room. Her sword and shield had already materialized in her hands when she turned to face him, dark blue eyes snapping with fury. "They dare," she was hissing, "they dare bring us here, only to betray you? This will not stand!"SDGF - Pirate Isles - 16 by serzero
"Song," Zero said, tightening his grip, "calm. Be calm, please. Falcon has been true--"
"Falcon almost killed you!" The younger Knight Gundam cried, though she didn't jerk her arm from his grasp. "He has something planned, though I do not know what, I will find out if I have to take it from his insolent hide!"
"You sound like Bakunetsumaru," Zero commented, momentarily amused. The statement brought Song up short and she dropped her gaze, embarrassed. Raising the hand that wasn't on Song's arm to rub the back of his neck, the
SDGF - Pirate Isles - 15"I think it's time we were introduced," Owl said, waving away the silence with his helm before replacing it on his head. "I am Owl Freeborn, Falcon's uncle. I used to have other titles but," he chuckled, settling in his chair. "They hardly matter now. I'm just an old gundam, hoping the cold days will warm again."SDGF - Pirate Isles - 15 by serzero
"I am Bakunatsumaru," the samurai started. He activated his signature in the air, making sure as always that the flame didn't touch anything but the glowing letters. "Blazing Samurai, heir to the Bakushien armor and warrior of Ark!"
"Though you know me," Zero said, "I am Zero, the Winged Knight, last Royal Knight and Savior of Lacroa." The violet rose that was his standard glowed briefly behind him while he spoke. Keeping in his agreement with Song, he didn't mention his partnership to Fenn, not wanting to expose just yet exactly what Fenn was. "I must know," he said, unable to help himself
SDGF Pirate Isles - 14"That was the easiest passage I've ever made," Falcon said brightly, trotting down the stairs to the main deck. He ignored the battered condition of the others, particularly Song, to offer a hand to Zero. "Thanks t'you, Royal Knight."SDGF Pirate Isles - 14 by serzero
Instead of taking the offered hand, Zero used the railing to untangle himself and Bakunetsumaru from where they had landed in a loose pile of rigging. Not one to be rude, he nodded to Falcon but crossed to where Song was only now picking herself up off the deck, kneeling beside her. "Are you all right?" He asked quietly, offering his hand.
"I ac--" Song glanced around at the others and let the words die. Not able to take her hand from Zero's without making it obvious she accepted his help up, looking away. "I'm fine."
"Hey, there are boats coming!" Shute called from his perch in the rigging, climbing down to stand with them.
"Best put'cher helmet on, lad," Falcon said calmly, "'less you be wantin' a g
SDGF - Pirate Isles - 13"Where is Zero, Fenn?" Song asked quietly, focused on the small Spirit Beast in her hand. The Feather Dragon looked up at her, blinked, then turned his blue eyes to one side, beginning to float in that direction. He turned back to look at Song, making an impatient noise. "That direction. Now, Falcon."SDGF - Pirate Isles - 13 by serzero
"I'll not be takin' orders from a lass not old enough t'drink," Falcon growled, "nor will I stick to a bargain struck under duress. The Rest be my ship an' she'll sail where I direct!"
The rope holding the wheel steady unknotted itself and snapped back, making Bakunetsumaru jump with a yelp of surprise. Its tip caught Falcon on the cheek, though the sailor didn't as much as wince, his eyes did follow the way the rope coiled itself behind Song's feet.
"Looks like your ship agrees with Song," Bakunetsumaru put in, earning himself a glare and a growl from the Pirate. Without another word Falcon grabbed the wh
SDGF - Pirate Isles - 12Noticing Bakunetsumaru's shudder at the sight of the ship's ropes and sails doing for themselves the work that would normally require a full crew, Song stepped to his side blinking in confusion on finding the until now confident samurai something she could only think of as nervous. "Baku?" She questioned, using his nickname for the first time.SDGF - Pirate Isles - 12 by serzero
"He is afraid of ghosts," Zero said, not bothering to keep his voice down. The comment earned a slight snicker from Shute and nothing but another shudder from the Musha gundam.
"Is'at so?" Falcon questioned, looking over his shoulder briefly. The sailor had returned to the wheel, guiding the ship with a deft hand. "Be at peace, Musha. Swallow's Rest not be haunted. She be a Sky Ship." He paused, then sighed, running a hand along the wheel gently. "Or she was, 'fore the Storms."
"A Sky Ship?" Shute questioned, shooting a questioning glance at Zero.
SDGF - Pirate Isles - 11"Admiral, Talon has no talent for the suggestive magics," Queen Katrina announced, sweeping into the Admiral's office. Receiving no response the Queen of Lacroa looked around carefully, her expression shifting to intrigued when she saw the room was truly empty. She turned to see the door had been locked, it simply had not latched completely.SDGF - Pirate Isles - 11 by serzero
Before she could do more than turn to lay one hand on the door it sprang open under her touch and she stood face to face with the Admiral, his expression twisted out of all recognition with the intensity of his anger. Not being a woman given to panic, Katrina simply took two steps back and inclined her head slightly to indicate the door. "It was open," she said, her voice betraying nothing. "Only once I had entered did I realize it was locked but not latched."
"Anyone could have been in here," the Admiral hissed, his fractured eyes glinting in their darting around the room.
"What are you concer
SDGF - Pirate Isles - 10"Zero, I was thinking." Bakunetsumaru was helping to search a building near the ice wall after hearing one of the humans describe how Song had been thrown clear of the explosion. Zero could hear his words from a room away and, though tempted, didn't pretend otherwise.SDGF - Pirate Isles - 10 by serzero
"Oh?" He asked, carefully lifting a piece of sheet wall to peer into the small cave it had made leaning against a desk. Bakunetsumaru either didn't hear or ignored the skepticism Zero had let slip into his voice.
"Yes. Song's magics are very powerful and seem to be very hard to control." The Musha gundam appeared in the doorway, glancing inside to find Zero floating across toward him. "Perhaps you should teach her your spells, instead of having her master these forgotten arts. These spells may have been forgotten for a reason."
"It is something I have considered," Zero admitted, using his shoulder to attempt to gain entry into another room.
SDGF - Pirate Isles - 9"Everyone move quickly, no pushing," Captain said, guiding the humans and mobile citizens through the storm. Every time the lighting and thunder cracked overhead at least one person cried out and stopped moving, turning what should have been a five minute trip between the homes in the city proper and the underground bunkers Mayor Margret had commissioned to be built after the Dark Axis attack into a half hour-long trek. His sensors trained in several directions at once Captain kept track of everyone he could currently see, using every weapon at his disposal to keep flying debris from hitting anyone.SDGF - Pirate Isles - 9 by serzero
"We're there!" Shute, at the front of the milling mass of close to a hundred people and robots, yelled over the sound of the storm. "One at a time please, the faster you move the faster everyone will be under shelter!"
"We're lucky the Mayor agreed to build these bunkers," Bakunetsumaru commented, rain streaming off his armor. The Musha gundam's horse Entang
SDGF - Pirate Isles - 8The armor looked something like a combination of GunEagle and Captain Gundam, its armor buffed to a sparkling white and cool green that matched Shute's eyes. When the boy wore it, as he was now, he looked almost like a gundam himself, the lower half of his face covered by a mask and his eyes protected by a clear blast shield that doubled as a heads-up-display. Golden SDG faction symbols identical to those Captain wore emblazoned the shoulders and a jet pack covered the back.SDGF - Pirate Isles - 8 by serzero
Delighted as he was that Doctor Kao Lyn was finally finished with the armor, Shute's expression was now disgruntled, watching his hands flex inside the black and white gauntlets. The boy had already taken the armor for a test run, getting used to the concept of thinking before he moved so the suit's enhanced strength didn't knock him over.
"What's wrong, Shute?" Captain asked, noting his friend's less than pleased expression.
"I don't have any weapons," Shute complained, lifting his
A girl from another worldIt was a normal day just like any other only this time I had no idea how different it was going to be and unknown to me something bad was going to happen to me that would change my life forever.A girl from another world by luner-tigher
I was making my way down the sidewalk as a gust of wind blow my white hair and as I was brushing the hair out of my eyes my cell phone went off causing me to cast my light blue eyes to it as I answer it the some of my best friends voice.
"Hey are you soon be here? "my friend asked me to which I said "Yeah I'm about a few minutes away from your house and that I'm going to take a short cut through the park to get there quicker so I'll see you soon "And with that we both said good bye and I hung up my cell then place it back it side my duffle bag that held all things I would need for the sleep over at my best friend's house.
It wasn't long before I made it to the front of the park where I soon made my way inside it and started to head for the center of the small park, but as I thinking of all the
A Passage of WeaponsNow was the time to test if this young squire was truly ready to be called a Knight of Lacroa, a servant of Mana. The son of Zero the Winged Knight stood in the middle of the crowd currently kneeling to Princess Rele. The royalty says nothing to the youth at first then lifts one hand, "Rise, Celestin. Call forth your weapon. Prove to me you are truly a servant to Mana and she has deemed you ready to defend Lacroa as a Royal Knight."A Passage of Weapons by FennFeatherDragon
"Yes,milady," Celestin answers and stands on his feet before taking a moment and hovering slightly above the ground, white and gold wings standing on slight display from his back but still folded. Raising his right hand, the blue gundam calls to the heavens as the sunlight bounces from the simplistic flame designs upon his armor. "O'Mana! I call to you! Present to me thy weapon of choosing!"
Zero had long since pass away at the hands of an unidentified dark cloud that swept across Skylark destroying both it and the

The Gundam sat up stunned for a moment. She looked around, her big green and blue eyes flickering, still in shock. Huh where am I? She spotted Grappler and Zapper, a little frightened by the strangers. And who are you!?
The question is, Zapper replied, who are you? And where do you come from?
My name is Sora Sokudo Im a Sergeant in the Royal Ebonite Sky Force The little Gundam said glumly; she drooped her head, as though recalling something very sad.
What are those? Zapper asked, pointing to some tubular appendages attached to her back.
These ? Sora asked as though that was a stupid question. Those are my thrusters. Thats what allows me to fly. Although I dont know if theyre working at the moment. I dont even know how I managed to re-boot

First Training"Daddy what if the other members think I will be weak because I'm small," asked a young femme as she walked beside her father, holding his hand as they walked to the training arcade of Blanc Base. One soft pink optic shifted down to meet his daughter's same colored optics and stopped, picking her up and gave her a nuzzle to her helm, saying, "Easy baby girl. You haven't even met them yet so don't worry about it. And if they judge you by your size well show what the daughter of Commander Sazabi can do." Flashing an optic in a smile at her when she saw her perk up and giggled, Sazabi then sets the young femme down and resumes walking, "you don't have to be so nervous Nightingale Corona. You'll be fine if you're anything like me."First Training by chaosphoniex

And yet you still love fly even if you hate highs "Guneagle replied back to me " I know but I can't help if but it doesn't matter you should go flying and not stay ground with me " I Told as I saw him once again looking at the sky seeing it as his only love

SDG - Kakuto's BioBLANC BASE FILE ID:SDG - Kakuto's Bio by GreyScale9
NAME: Kakuto, Knight of the Flames, and Junior Guardsman of the Kishavan Royal Guard
AGE: Unknown, appears to be, mentally, in his teens.
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Bi
EYES: Green
USUAL CLOTHING: Black armor with highlights that shift between red, orange, and yellow with changes in lighting, a black cape with a red inner lining, and a few accents of silver.
NOTABLE TATTOOS/SCARS/MARKINGS/ECT: None
KNOWN RELATIVES: None
PERSONALITY: Cold shouldered, in general. He believes in handling his own problems, and has no friends beyond his Guardsman partners and Raah. He grudgingly admits that he needs the SDG's help to liberate his homeland, but he makes it very clear that if he could, he'd handle it himself. He has a softer side, though - one that's terrified that he'll never see his homeland shine in freedom again.
FRIENDS: Ajatamaru, Christen, Raah (all OCs)
SPECIAL BELONGINGS: The seal of the Kishavan Royal Guard, which he wear
SDGF - Kishava 02People were staring at him.SDGF - Kishava 02 by GreyScale9
Some in interest, some in awe, but most in confusion. The whispers of 'Is that Zero?', 'Does he always walk?', and 'Why did he change his armor?' were beginning to annoy him, though. Who was this 'Zero'? Another knight? He hadn't seen any other Knight gundams in this city so far. He hadn't even seen other Musha gundams. Only humans and civilian robots. This was just another reminder of how far they were from home.
Yes, they. He'd been sent to this strange world with a companion, but had sadly arrived alone. His friend had to be somewhere in this world, and not too far off, either - the circumstances of their departure wouldn't have allowed otherwise. He just needed to find his friend, and then they could continue with their mission. The knight moved through the streets, feeling quite unnerved by the bounty of technology that surrounded him on every corner. It wasn't the kind of society he was used to, and it just made his homesickness worse.
Eventually, he f
SDGF - Kishava 01This new world wasn't very different than home, the knight decided.SDGF - Kishava 01 by GreyScale9
Standing on a small hill, beneath the shade of a tree, staring at the city in the distance, he even decided that it wasn't that bad. If he closed his eyes, he could even pretend he were home. That the city on the horizon was the port city of Leshna. That he were standing on the edge of the foothills of Rhea's Peak. That he could open his eyes and see his friends, and his family, ready to set out for their home city, Kishava.
Oh, Kishava. At the mere thought, his gunsoul ached for home. He missed the cobblestone streets, the architecture of mixed heritages, the familiar sight of Royal Guardsman mingling with artisans and craftsmen on just about every corner .and with these thoughts, the illusion broke. He could no longer pretend this strange land was familiar.
With a sign, the knight opened his blue eyes and turned away. He paused to tug his black and red cape off of the branch that snagged it, and walked down the

Very good
Location was decent-for our plans Staff was very friendly and knowledgable. Comfortable bed, and very clean. Over all, we'd return.
Is slightly far from down town activities and rooms can be slightly dark, as they have very little lighting.
location was conveniet.
We found a ball of hair between the sheets. gross. Breakfast area was so cold you need a winter coat.
The hotel was 15 minutes walking distance from city centre.
Room was very small. Bed was uncomfortable. Electrical sockets loose and overloaded. Breakfast was poor cereal tasted stale, little choice, doll sized crockery and weak coffee.
It was great to have access to the deck upstairs
Very friendly employee. Quiet, and close to the event we were attending. Free parking.
Didn't like the fact that the photos online were nothing near to the actual room. Very outdated. Bathroom was very tiny and floor got soaked every time the shower was turned on. Had much better rooms for the value regarding facilities and comfort during other bookings in Halifax region.
there is no disposable tooth brush/ tooth paste available for customers
hot tub in room continental breakfast very good variety good coffee great location to downtown and attraction good size room never had any problem so never had to deal with staff except sign in and out but very friendly when walking by them
not being able to get a coffee after 9:30am or in the evening
Good location. Close to water street and citadel. Easy walks within plenty to see and do. The desk was was great in pointing us where to go
Breakfast was comparable to a lot of chains I've stayed at but the room was a little uncomfortable. Would have liked the tv in the breakfast area.
The staff were wonderful...friendly and knowledgeable. The price was definitely right and the room was comfortable and clean...very small but the space was well used.
The computer was set in Korean so I couldn't use it well. It meant that I had to try and remember where each of the keys for send, forward etc were located...didn't always work for me and I never knew if my emails were send or discarded
The breakfast nook was bright and well maintained with great coffee and great fresh fruit salad.
The phone was broken. The radio/alarm was broken. Found a used facecloth in the bathtub on arrival.
It's not expensive
It's run down and not a great area
Rooms were small but adequate for our needs Breakfast was continental but choices were good and the fresh fruit salad was great Staff were excellent and couldn't help enough with information and offering to store our bags for a late evening flight
Location very close to very good cafes, diners and pubs. Good parking lot on site. Neighbourhood with character and colour. Very little auto traffic, safe streets.
The location was the best and the staff were friendly and helpful.
You had you pay more if you wanted a bath tub. Wasn't aware some rooms only had a shower.
The desk manager was very helpful. He made us feel welcome. Enjoyed our stay.
Close walk to downtown. Good quality for good budget price.
A bit of walking involved to downtown but free parking and more interesting neighborhood than most chain hotels. Free parking, helpful staff.
Some rooms are close to the reception area and can get a bit of noise. Rooms not large but adequate.
Bed was comfortable. Continental breakfast included in price was more than adequate.
Room was near the front desk. I could hear almost everything going on at the desk. The place is in need of a good repair person. Repairs to different things in the room was shoddy workmanship.
The personnel were friendly and helpful.
Our room was on the 1st floor, just down from the lobby. Between 9 pm & midnight, there was a lot of near non-stop talking/laughing between a couple of guys, one was very loud voiced. We had hoped to get an early start the next morning and ended up falling asleep much later due to that. Outer room Doors need better sealing especially on lobby floor.
I like the central location - an easy walk to the citadel and the waterfront. It is a quaint little hotel with lots of character. If you are looking for what the big chains can offer you, this is not the place for you. It was homey and the continental breakfast was adequate and gave you a chance to chat with other visitors. Pleasant atmosphere.
The room was quite small. Even though we weren't in the room very much, there was only one chair and it was very crowded. Don't know if all the rooms were the same size but this one was very small.
The location to downtown for the price was fabulous. Our walk to the citadel was less than 10 minutes and to downtown was only about 15 minutes. The room was very clean and was a good size. The man who checked us in gave us a very detailed description of things to do&see in Halifax. Other staff we saw were funny and very helpful.
The first night we stayed (stayed on our first night of 10 days in Atlantic Canada and the last 2) our room was next to the stairs. The head of the bed shared a wall with a stairwell and I had a horrible sleep. My partner didn't seem to mind or notice. The next two nights were perfect for noise level.

Scientific Forecaster Discussion
Area forecast discussion
National Weather Service Taunton Massachusetts
725 am EST Wednesday Jan 28 2015
strong low pressure will move across Nova Scotia today. Scattered
ocean effect snow showers will linger across Cape Cod and
Nantucket into this afternoon. Otherwise...it will be dry and
cold as the cleanup continues. A clipper type system will move out
of the plains states...bringing another chance for snow Thursday
night into Friday night. Dry...blustery and frigid conditions move
in for this weekend. A third storm may affect the region Sunday
night and Monday.
Near term /until 6 PM this evening/...
7 am update...
lower clouds continue across central and eastern areas at
12z...but noting breaks in those clouds across west Massachusetts/north central CT.
Infrared satellite also showing these breaks with clearing moving into East
New York and the Berkshires. However...with 500 mb trough axis lingering
across the region...will likely see clouds pop up again through
Still noting leftover snow showers reaching into coastal Plymouth
County as well as the cape and islands. Cold air across the milder
ocean waters will keep scattered ocean effect snow showers moving across
the middle and Outer Cape and into Nantucket with a few possible
moving across The Vineyard.
Have updated near term forecast to bring conditions current.
Previous discussion...
scattered ocean effect snow showers will likely continue into the
afternoon over the Outer Cape. Steep low level lapse rates over
the water with Delta T from SST to top of the mixed layer
exceeding 20c which is quite unstable. However...northwest trajectory and
shallow mixed layer will limit areal extent somewhat. Could see an
additional coating to an inch over the Outer Cape.
Otherwise...clouds will gradually give way to ptsunny skies from
west to east during the afternoon...except for the cape/islands
where clearing will be delayed until evening. High temperatures will
reach low/middle 20s...except upper teens higher terrain in northern
and western Massachusetts. Northwest winds gusting to 20-25 miles per hour will result in wind
chills in the single numbers and teens.
Short term /6 PM this evening through 6 am Thursday/...
high pressure builds in from the west tonight with clearing skies and
light winds developing. With deep fresh snowpack...the stage will
be set for ideal radiational cooling and a very cold night. Leaned
toward colder MOS guidance and undercut by 2-3f which yields mins
in the single numbers above and below zero...except teens
cape/islands. Coldest mins will be across west Massachusetts.
Long term /Thursday through Tuesday/...
active but progressive northern and southern streams across the
lower 48 through this long term period. First northern stream
short wave works out of the northern rockies today...crossing into
the region Thursday night and Friday...possibly lingering along
the East Coast Friday night. This will usher in Arctic air for this
weekend along with blustery winds and frigid wind chills. A pair
of 500 mb short waves may merge as they approach the East Coast Sunday
night and Monday.
While operational models did show timing and track differences
especially with the possible late weekend system...used an overall
model blend including ensembles. This gave good continuity with
the previous forecast.
high pressure ridge builds across in fast upper flow. Will see mostly
clear skies and light winds. The ridge will push offshore during
the afternoon with a light S-SW wind flow setting up. Clouds will
also increase ahead of next approaching system. Expect highs
mainly in the upper 20s to middle 30s.
Thursday night-Friday night...
pretty vigorous 500 mb short wave with clipper type system working east
out of the eastern Great Lakes/Ohio Valley. Looks like this system
will redevelop off the New England coast as the short wave begins
to negative tilt and cutoff...but this looks like it will happen
across central New England. The low does not deepen until later
Friday...which will be into the Gulf of Maine by then. However...
the low looks to spin there Friday night as it deepens...which may
keep moisture across eastern areas.
With milder air working into the developing low Friday...looks
like there may be a period of mixed rain/snow or even a brief
change to rain along the S coast...Cape Cod and the islands.
Otherwise...looks like another shot of snowfall for the region
though not nearly as high as the blizzard. Total quantitative precipitation forecast looks to be
from 0.15 to 0.25 inches across most areas...but will see some
enhancement across east coastal areas as the low forms with quantitative precipitation forecast
possibly up to 0.40 inches. With the cold air in place...will
likely see snowfall totals from 2-4 inches but could see a bit
more across NE Massachusetts closer to the developing low with some snow
lingering Friday night.
With strong pressure falls as the low develops offshore...expect
tightening pressure gradient bringing increasing northwest winds behind the
storm later Friday night. Will likely see gusts up to 25-35 knots
around or after midnight...bringing in Arctic air as well as low
wind chill readings. Lows Friday night plunge to below zero across
the higher inland terrain as well as the east slopes of the
Berkshires to 10-15 along the S coast...Cape Cod and the islands.
The combination of the low temperatures and blustery winds may mean very
low wind chill readings. Advisories may be needed for portions of
the interior.
high pressure begins to shift east during Sat...but the departing storm
into the Maritimes will cause blustery conditions to continue.
Arctic airmass entrenches itself across the region with 850 mb temperatures
dropping to -11c to -16c. This translates to temperatures only recovering
to the teens to around 20 on Sat...though wind chills will make
it feel much colder.
Winds will diminish Sat night...but may remain high enough with
the dropping temperatures to see possible wind chill advisories. Lows
will bottom out from zero to 5 below well inland to the middle teens
on the Outer Cape and Nantucket.
Another low begins to move NE across the Mississippi Valley during
Sunday as high pressure crests across the region. Northwest winds diminish
and begin to back to west late in the day. Clouds will also increase
during the afternoon.
Sunday night-Monday...
pair of upper level systems begin to approach. Low confidence on
the timing and track of these systems...as well as how surface low
pressure forms as it approaches. Of concern is the track of this low
on the 00z European model (ecmwf)...which takes the low S of the region meaning
another shot for more snow. The 00z GFS and ggem models keep the
low further inland...with possible mixture or a change to rain for
some locations. May also see decent rainfall with some infusion
of southern stream moisture with this low. Something to keep a
close eye on...though again confidence remains low.
Tuesday...depending upon the departure of the low...looks like
more cold air works in as another high approaches.
Aviation /12z Wednesday through Sunday/...
forecaster confidence levels...
Low...less than 30 percent.
Moderate...30 to 60 percent.
High...greater than 60 percent.
Short term...through tonight...high confidence.
Today...VFR ceilings most areas. Expect MVFR ceilings along with scattered snow
showers across Outer Cape cod and ack. Northwest gusts to 20-25 knots mainly
along coast and across higher terrain.
Tonight...VFR. Winds becoming light.
Kbos taf...high confidence in taf.
Kbdl taf...high confidence in taf.
Outlook /Thursday through Sunday/...
Thursday...moderate confidence. Mainly VFR. Winds becoming light
S. Middle and high clouds approach during the afternoon.
Thursday night-Friday night...low to moderate confidence.
Expect ceilings lower to MVFR with MVFR-IFR visibilities in snow. Conditions
improve to VFR Friday afternoon but northwest winds increase with gusts
up to 25-30 knots...possibly higher along the East Coast.
Saturday-Sunday...low to moderate confidence. VFR. Gusty
northwest winds 25-35 knots Saturday...lighter winds Sunday.
forecaster confidence levels...
Low...less than 30 percent.
Moderate...30 to 60 percent.
High...greater than 60 percent.
Short term /tonight/...high confidence.
Gale force gusts have diminished over east waters and Small Craft Advisory in effect
for all waters. Winds will continue to diminish below Small Craft Advisory later
this morning into the afternoon...with gradual subsiding seas.
Freezing spray diminishing.
Diminishing northwest winds through tonight. Seas mostly below Small Craft Advisory
thresholds...except subsiding to near 5 feet over east waters toward
daybreak Thursday.
Outlook /Thursday through Sunday/...moderate confidence.
conditions remain below small craft thresholds on Thursday...
though S winds may gust up to 20 knots Thursday night.
low pressure will cross the waters. Expect reduced visibilities in snow.
Expect winds to shift to northwest by Friday night...increasing to 25-35
knots...so gales will likely be needed. Seas also build up to 6-8 feet
over the open waters. Freezing spray will likely develop Friday
Saturday...northwest gales expected with potential for a light freezing
spray. Seas remain high...possibly up to 7-9 feet on the exposed
waters. Winds will begin to diminish Sat night.
Sunday...winds and seas at Small Craft Advisory levels early
Sunday...but will diminish through the day.
Tides/coastal flooding...
early morning high tide cycle has passed. No reports of
significant issues with splashover or minor flooding this morning
so far. Have allowed the coastal Flood Advisory to expire.
Box watches/warnings/advisories...
Rhode Island...none.

Even when they can't find a way to avoid covering a Democrat Party scandal, they strive valiantly to retain their precious moral superiority. Front-page headine in the Washington Post:
Sen. Menendez contacted top officials
in friend's Medicare dispute
However, as Jeffrey Meyer points out at Newsbusters, the 43-paragraph front-page story ignores the sexual allegations against Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.), which are relegated to a Style section article by Manuel Roig-Franzia derogating the prostitution angle and those who originally broke the story:
After providing four paragraphs on page C4 outlining the prostitution scandal, the article then went into an 17 additional paragraphs on the layout and atmosphere of the resort community known as "Casa de Campo" . . .
Roig-Franzia vehemently tried to refute the prostitution allegations against Menendez by mentioning, "the allegations — made by an anonymous whistleblower and first publicized on a conservative Web site — have not been verified independently." . . . Roig-Franzia seems intent on suggesting it's near impossible for a hooker to slip by Casa de Campo's crack security staff . . .
Notice how closely the WaPo's "Don't Believe Right-Wing Blogs" meme echoes Menendez's own narrative, described by Michelle Malkin:
In his latest statement on the matter Monday, Menendez repeated his blanket denials of any wrongdoing, recycled his attack on conservative media reporting the story and labeled accounts of the alleged island sex parties "smears." . . .
While Melgen shelled out millions to Menendez and the Democratic Party over the years, he is a serial tax evader. The jet-setting doc incurred liens of $1.3 million before 2002, $6.2 million in 2011, and a still outstanding $11.1 million lien between 2006 and 2009. And the FBI and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services — not a part of the "right-wing" blogosphere the last time I checked — are now sifting through boxes of documents they carted away during last week's raid of Melgen's offices as part of a Medicare fraud investigation.
The feds finally acted after a document shredding truck was spotted outside Melgen's clinic. I think it's safe to say a "right-wing blog" didn't send it.
Mendendez's dismissal of "smears" by "right-wing blogs," and the WaPo's contemptuous attitude toward "allegations . . . publicized on a conservative Web site" are essentially the same meme: Attack the credibility of Matthew Boyle, who broke the story at the Daily Caller.
Menendez's motives for attacking Boyle are obvious, as are the mainstream media's: If the WaPo were to acknowledge that Boyle was right about Menendez, this raises the question of why the WaPo (with its large staff of professional journalists) didn't follow-up on that scoop.

Redlegs Review
Last updated 11/17/14
The Reds avoided having to go to an arbitration hearing for the first time in nine years after inking Homer Bailey to a one-year deal worth $5.35 million, the team announced on Saturday.
Bailey originally filed for $5.8 million while the club countered at $4.75 million. As usual in these arbitration cases, the two sides worked out a settlement and found a common middle ground to avoid having to fight it out in front of an arbitrator.
The right-hander was the last of the club's seven arbitration cases to agree on a contract. Reds general manager Walt Jocketty called this year the "toughest" he has ever experienced as far as negotiating deals with arbitration players goes.
Bailey went 13-10 with a 3.68 ERA in 33 starts for the National League Central champions in 2012 -- one of those victories came after he tossed a no-hitter in September. He also earned a base salary of $2.425 million. Therefore, this season will provide the 26-year-old with a rather sizeable pay increase.

One of Two Beavercreek Officers Involved in Walmart Shooting Returns to Work
BEAVERCREEK -- One of the two police officers involved in the August 5 fatal shooting of 22-year-old John Crawford III has returned to active duty.
Beavercreek City Attorney Stephen McHugh said Sgt. David Darkow has returned to work, while Officer Sean Williams remains on leave.
Neither city nor state officials, who are investigating the shooting, have said which officer fired the shot or shots that killed Crawford.
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine said Wednesday that a grand jury will convene Sept. 3 to determine whether criminal charged should be filed against the officers involved in the shooting.

Remains found in California cabin after standoff with fugitive
ANGELUS OAKS, California
ANGELUS OAKS, California (Reuters) - A massive California manhunt for a fugitive former cop looked to have ended on Wednesday after authorities found human remains in the charred ruins of a cabin where he was thought to have holed up.
The cabin in the mountains above Los Angeles went up in flames after the gunman, suspected of a killing spree that has targeted police and their families, took refuge following a car chase with police, officials said.
Police were awaiting forensic analysis to confirm the body was that of Christopher Dorner, the subject of the six-day manhunt that has ranged across southern California.
But San Bernardino County Sheriff's spokeswoman Cindy Bachman told reporters the man who barricaded himself inside the cabin and exchanged gunfire with officers was thought to be Dorner, 33.
"We believe he was still inside," she said.
A sheriff's deputy was killed in the shootout in the snow-covered, wooded hills of the San Bernardino National Forest, northeast of Los Angeles, bringing to four the number of killings Dorner is suspected of committing. A second sheriff's deputy was wounded in Tuesday's gunfight.
An angry manifesto posted last week on Dorner's Facebook page claimed he had been wrongly terminated from the Los Angeles Police Department in 2008. He vowed to seek revenge by unleashing "unconventional and asymmetrical warfare" on officers and their families.
Tuesday's climax to the saga unfolded after police learned that a gunman they believed was Dorner had broken into a home near the ski resort community of Big Bear Lake, tied up a couple and stolen their vehicle.
State game wardens later spotted the vehicle and gave chase. The suspect crashed the car, then commandeered a pickup truck at gunpoint from another motorist, said Lieutenant Patrick Foy of the state Fish and Wildlife Department.
As game wardens pursued him, the suspect fired at them from the window of the truck, and one of the game officers stopped his truck and fired back with a high-powered rifle, Foy said, adding that he did not know whether the man was hit.
Officers got close enough at one point during the chase to recognize the driver as Dorner, Foy said, before he abandoned the pickup and fled on foot into the woods to a cabin believed to be vacant, where he holed up inside and exchanged fire with sheriff's deputies.
After a lull in the gunfire, the cabin suddenly caught fire, with smoke and flames seen engulfing the structure. Loud popping sounds could be heard from inside.
Dorner's last confirmed encounter with authorities came last Thursday, when police said he ambushed two policemen at a traffic light in Riverside, about 60 miles (100 km) east of Los Angeles. One officer was killed and the other wounded.
The former U.S. Navy officer is also suspected of exchanging gunfire on Thursday with police and wounding one officer in nearby Corona.
Dorner first came to public notice last Wednesday when police identified him as a suspect in the slayings of a campus security officer and his fiancee, the daughter of a retired Los Angeles police captain. In the manifesto posted on his Facebook page, Dorner blamed the captain for his dismissal from the LAPD.
Authorities posted a $1 million reward for information leading to Dorner's capture, an amount they said was the largest ever offered in a Southern California criminal investigation.

Antennas Direct Introduces ClearStream 5 to Resolve VHF Signal Loss
June 8, 2009; ST. LOUIS â While people may know that 24% of DTV stations are reverting back to their original VHF channel assignments, few are prepared for the dramatic power reduction for some of these stations, resulting in millions of Americans losing DTV reception. To meet the demand for reliable digital reception, Antennas Direct created the ClearStream 5, a powerful antenna for low-power, high VHF DTV channels; channels 7 to 13.
âFor years, there have been warnings about the problems with DTV broadcasting on the VHF band; lower fractional bandwidth, increased interference from noise and adjacent markets, and the reluctance of customers to install significantly larger, performance-compromised combo UHF/VHF antennas,â? said Richard Schneider, president of Antennas Direct. âBut now things have become even worse because some VHF stations have cut their ERP (effective radiated power) by 95%, making reception nearly impossible. With all these factors at play, we predict that a huge percentage of the country will lose VHF DTV reception.â?
In fact, widespread VHF signal loss was the reason Louisiana Media Co. recently decided to revert back to it UHF DTV channel assignment. The media company petitioned the FCC to restore WVUE Foxâs UHF digital channel 29 assignment and terminate its VHF channel 8 assignment in order to reach the âsignificant number of viewersâ? who reported complete signal loss while the station was transmitting on the VHF band.
âTypically, VHF frequencies propagate better than UHF signals, but the reduction of ERP on the VHF band in some cases is so sever, the channel becomes nearly unwatchable,â? Schneider said. âWeâve designed the ClearStream 5 with the highest possible gain for channels 7 to 13 to offer consumers the best chance for receiving high VHF DTV in those low-powered markets.â?
âThe assumption was that ATSC (digital) broadcasting can be 10 times more efficient than analog, that transmitter power could be cut, electric bills would be slashed and the station could maintain the same coverage area, but thatâs not how it ended up,â? he said, âYes, digital does offer efficiencies, but not nearly enough to make up for the dramatic reduction in transmitting power that weâre seeing across the country.â?
While viewers wait to see if the estimated 400 VHF DTV broadcasters decide to increase power or move to the UHF band, Antennas Direct will be shipping the Clearstream 5 high-band VHF antenna to afford them higher reception rates. The C5 will be the most powerful compact VHF antenna ever offered, with a nearly uniform gain of 8.4 dBi for high VHF channels 7-13. Also, the efficiency of the ClearStream 5 allows a significant majority of the available broadcast signal to reach the incoming antenna cable without being lost to impedance mismatches.
Antennas Direct designed the 28-by-23-inch square loop antenna to be 80% smaller than typical VHF antennas, which can have a width of over 100 inches. Its small size makes the C5 easier to install as a supplement to UHF antennas. Each ClearStream 5 comes with a low-loss UHF/VHF signal combiner.
The ClearStream 5 has a reception range of up to 65-plus miles and will retail for $119. It will ship late June.
ï§ Range: 65 + miles.
ï§ Design: Square Loop with Tuning Bar
ï§ Size: 23â?w x 23â?h x 11.5â?d
ï§ Target: High VHF Channels 7-13 (174 MHz — 216 MHz).
ï§ Typical Gain: 8.4 dBi.
ï§ Efficiency: 90%
ï§ Beam Width: 70 degrees
ï§ MSRP: $119.00
Antennas Direct is a St. Louis-based manufacturer of over-the-air antennas specifically tuned for core DTV frequencies. Its ClearStream antenna series has been widely recognized by broadcast engineers and industry publications for its superior design and performance for DTV. Antennas Direct, a 2008 Inc. 500 fastest-growing company, has invested major resources into the discovery and implementation of new antenna technology and continues to test and modify antenna designs, raising the bar by which antenna performance and appearance are measured.
