~ The Raid
Aibhlinn was gutting fish in the early morning fog with her family. It had been a terrific catch and the entire village had been working hard all night to prepare the fish for preservation. They had run out of salt already, so mum was building up the fire to smoke the rest of the fish.
The smoke smelled heavy in the still air, which covered the stink of the fish guts a little.
Struan and some of his friends had gone out to the forest to get more wood, mainly branches to set the fish on. Aibhlinn liked Struan. He was a strapping lad, he made her feel a little funny inside and she tended to giggle for no reason whenever he looked at her. She was almost of age to start walking out with him. She was hoping so hard he would ask her, she tried to be near him as much as she could. He looked at her sometimes with such a gentle look on his face. Her pretty brown braids were falling apart from all the work, but she would make herself look extra good after a go

~ Flynn Rider and the Feral Princess
- Chapter 1
Flynn Rider slammed the shutters closed, finally safe from that stupid (okay, not so stupid) horse.
"Alone at last." Flynn said as he opened the satchel and pulled out the crown. He moved to a tall thin window and held it in the light, the jewels sparkling in the light. The three huge jewels that were most prominent on the crown were amazing. He found himself counting and categorizing all the lesser jewels that encrusted the crown as well. He had a buyer all ready and after ditching the Stabbington brothers he was going to take their cuts as well, more then enough for his island.
Soon enough though the excitement over the crown wore off and he looked around. The room was plain, there were a couple of chairs (the red one looked comfy enough), a wardrobe (he'd want to check that out for valuables), a spinning wheel (big deal), a neat little kitchen (he'd rummage through that, he was beginning to get hungry), a h

"Her hair is like a fully enflamed Monstrous Nightmare. Her eyes are blue like the clear sky after a blizzard. Her hands are strong and callused but her touch is gentle like pussywillows. She smelled of apple. Her skin is like warm cream. Her face is round like a bowl you cup in your hands before drinking in her wonderful goodness." Hiccup had his hands cupped before him.
"And her lips." Ruffnut cooed.
"H-her lips...." Hiccup licked his own.
"sNerk." A slightly muffled laugh came from Tuffnut.
Hiccup snapped out his revere. He looked around at the other teens and dashed away into the darkness beyond the bonfire on the observation deck, blushing bright red.
"Aw, you had to ruin it, didn't you." Ruffnut complained hitting her brother.
"Stop it! Won't you ever stop it?" shouted Astrid, rising and spinning her ax in her hand.
Everyone stared at her.

"So how will the Althing help with the woman problem and the raiding of Scotland?" asked Hiccup.
"Well, son. At the very least we would be able to buy slave wives for the men." said Stoic.
"Dad, that's not a good solution and doesn't help with the Scots."
"No, but it is an option and is a simple answer to the most pressing problem." Stoic held up a hand to keep Hiccup from butting in. "But there should be unattached women from other tribes available that might consider marrying into the tribe."
"Okay, but what about protecting the Scots?"
"I am not exactly sure. I don't really have a good understanding of the law and other nations. That's why I want to talk to the lawspeaker and introduce you to him as well."
"Yes, you. I don't exactly have a plan yet. There are too many things I just don't kn

The door shut behind Hiccup and the room went dark. He heard the bar slide into place, and his heart began to race again.
Elinor had told him that all he had to do was retrieve Merida from the dungeon during a mock raid. The idea seemed a bit odd, but it made a weird kind of sense, most of the interactions between the Viking and the Highlands had been raids and they were acknowledging that.
Hiccup was hoping that there wouldn't be too many injuries. Elinor had confided in him that she was hoping this would also tire everyone so the new couple could have a quiet night together.
Elinor had just locked him into this dark room. Merida was in here somewhere, but how to find her. He waited as his eyes tried to adjust to the darkness. The slave chain on his belt clanked gently.
He started as he heard some rocks start rolling nearby. There was a thump and a window opened. There in the beam of sunlight was a white cocoon topped with wild red hair.

Hiccup woke up to the sound of Toothless' teeth extending, which made him sit up and look around really quickly. It was really early in the morning, a torch was guttering low on the wall by the kitchen. The windows were covered with wooden shudders and furs to keep out the cold but there were still drafts making the torch waver.
In front of Toothless were four young children. Three were redheads, Merida had introduced them as Harris, Hubert and Hammish, but he had no idea who was whom. Merida seemed to have no problem with it though.
There was another child, a little blonde girl about the same age as the boys. She had a halo of messy blonde hair, that told Hiccup that she must be related to Lord MacGuffin. He knew that Lord MacGuffin had some other children besides Kevin, his firstborn. There was a son about Hiccup's age that he had seen, but hadn't been introduced to. As well as a preteen girl, who he had seen rush up

He caught her arm, the shackle clanking, "Ouch, That wasn't my idea. The Stabbington brothers knocked me out, tied me to the boat and shoved me off. They knew about you and your hair. I tried to warn you but they hit almost as hard as you do." He rubbed his head with his free hand.
"I didn't mean that, why did you cut my hair? I couldn't heal you. You were dying and I couldn't do anything about it!. You died!" Rapunzel was crying hard now.
Taking her in his arms. "I'm sorry, death was better then seeing you enslave yourself to your mother. If you were free I knew you'd be okay, I saw how wonderful you became when you were free. You are too amazing to leave trapped in a tower forever. I love you too much to let you do that even to save my own life."
Rapunzel looked somewhat mollified, "And why did you come back?"

Hiccup and Astrid glided into Berk. Hiccup was amazed as it looked like the whole village turned out as they came in. Everyone was shouting questions, and crowding around him. Astrid was glaring at everyone as they dismounted. Hiccup was looking for his father, but so many women were so close to him, touching him. Astrid and Ruffnut elbowed their way right next to him as Stoic came barreling through the crowd.
"Hiccup, son!" called Stoic as he caught his son up in a hug. "You're alright. What happened? When you didn't come back in time we sent out search parties."
"Oh, ah, good. Did anyone find the message I left at Nest 5?"
"Yes, but saying you went looking for it didn't exactly help. I found him in Scotland." grumbled Astrid.

Merida tottered out of the meeting that she and her mother had had with Astrid. Mum was arranging a room for the girl and a place for her dragon.
Merida had a hand on the stone wall guiding her, because she wasn't sure how she was feeling. Hiccup had sent Astrid, the girl she thought Hiccup liked, to ask Merida to marry him. It would be a political marriage, the way to stop the raids on Scotland.
Merida stumbled down the stairs, grabbing the handrail. Her eyes didn't seem to want to focus, her ears couldn't hear. Part of her was raging, she didn't want to give up her freedom. The freedom she had fought so hard for and hurt her mum over. Another part of her liked Hiccup, and held out the hope that maybe she could love him like Mum loved Da. The princess part of her knew what had to be done for the sake of her people.
Her feet carried her out of the castle and into the woods. There was a comforting presence next to her, Kevin MacG

Merida came tearing out of the castle. Maudie had told her a dragon had been sighted.
She looked into the sunset. It was Toothless. She ran to wait in the big field as he got closer. Her parents and others came to see. The trees were covered in the bright green of new spring growth now.
She had figured out that Hiccup was trying to get away from her once Astrid had shown up. As her parents had talked to Astrid, Hiccup had cupped her cheek in his hand and looked into her eyes, then he had gathered his things and left without a word. She figured that it was somehow too dangerous for him to say something. It was obvious that Astrid was jealous, and dangerous. But it had left her feeling devastated for him to leave without actually saying good-bye to her and she didn't know why.
She knew that Astrid was dangerous, but so was she. Hiccup had said Astrid had basically claimed him after he recovered from their adventure

"So what was your first flight like?" asked Merida casually, as she and Hiccup sat down near the fire, watching Toothless curl up for a nap. The thought of riding a dragon was so very interesting.
Toothless could fully extend his wings now. They were settling down after taking him outside to flap his wings to stretch them out. He had thrown up quite the flurry of snow from the snowstorm the previous day. It was getting a little bit warmer; at least it was warm enough to snow now.
Merida was unprepared for the reaction she got from Hiccup's face. He smiled, not just a little awkward smile but a real all the way to the eyes smile. She knew she was seeing the real Hiccup, like when she had seen her real mum in her room just before the introduction of the suitors.
"It was amazing. Our first flight didn't go so well, because I hadn't figured everything out yet, hardly anything actually. I had created a new t

Toothless landed by a sheltered outcropping of rock. He used the last of his flame to heat the ground. Together Hiccup and Merida curled up in Toothless' protective embrace.
"Hiccup, are we going to be okay? We aren't really prepared for a blizzard," asked Merida, drawing her cloak close, it was a little charred on the edge but she had ducked behind Hiccup as they flew through the fire. They didn't have any food or water; they were only supposed to take an hour to look around. Eating the snow was too dangerous, it was so cold it would chill them faster and kill them. She knew they could last a day or two without food and water, but lack of shelter was a serious problem in a blizzard. However, the blizzard felt relatively warm after the terrible cold of this winter.
"We'll be okay, Toothless can keep us warm. Here, lay on me and cover us with your cloak."

The tribe kept an eye on the Skivvy Scroungers while dragons stayed close to Hiccup as he trained with his father. Everyone could see a few of BigEars' men loitering near Stoic's campsite. Stoic had some men keep watch.
The Althing still had quite a bit of business to take care of, and since it was traditional for a holmgang to have a cool down period between the acceptance of the challenge and the fight itself, it would be several days before the fight. That allowed the ship bringing Toothless to arrive.
Fishlegs dumped an armload of bread onto the table. Gobber and the teens dug in, as they sat in Stoic's tent after another day of watching and training.
"Hiccup, you had to go mess up a good thing." complained Snotlout as they met around a table in Stoic's tent.
"What do you mean?" asked Hiccup.
"I had all those girls swarming me." said Snotlout.
"Hey, it's not that bad."

Fergus turned the key to his strongroom and took the torch with him inside as he closed the door behind him. He lit the other torches already in the room. Putting the torch in the holder by the door he went to the small chest in the niche in the middle of the wall.
He carried it to the heavy table in the center of the room, put it down near the end of the table and sat with a sigh. He pulled out another smaller key and opened this chest. He reached in and placed the object inside on the table at the center of the table.
Fergus sighed again. He was looking at his crown. He hated that thing.
It was round, as a crown should be. There were four large emeralds around the intricately engraved band, surrounded by diamonds, pearls and other precious gems. It was as silly as it was heavy.
But it was his.
He was the king.
He was in charge.

"We have a new problem. A really big problem," warned Hiccup, leaning on his fists on the table.
"We already have a problem, are you saying there is a bigger problem out there we have to deal with? We took out a lot of dragons, finally." asked Fergus. He had one of the boys on his lap. He was feeling pretty good, they had taken out a large number of dragons and the rest had fled. They had lost only a few sheep.
"Yes. Admittedly, you did really well out there today, taking down so many dragons so quickly is impressive, but you lost a lot of people," explained Hiccup.
After the battle, they began treating the wounded in the Great Hall. Hiccup showed them that the best way to deal with a Nadder quill was to push it through rather then pull since it was barbed. There was the man with the charred stump of a hand--it looked like Gronkle burns--who they were plying with strong ale as two burly guys and a ma

She looked around for a while, trying to get a handle on what was going on. She knew what things were called, but that didn't seem to help.
She began to walk, in no particular direction and then after a long time heard something interesting, cheers and applause and something else the roar of engines. That roar spurred her to run as fast as she could and she soon found herself looking over a frosting covered hill at the start of a race.
There were little girls just like her getting into karts and driving really fast. She knew she was a driver like them, but she felt a little different, too. She looked at herself. She wasn't wearing clothes like they were, she just had on ...underwear, she was pretty sure it was called. That was wrong, she needed clothes.

After what felt like several sunlit days the newly rejoined royal family and Eugene stood up. They stayed very close to one another, Rapunzel and her mother holding hands and the king had his arm around the waist of the queen and Eugene had an arm around the shoulders of Rapunzel.
The King held Rapunzel at arms length next to the Queen, "She looks so much like you, the Test must have been pointless."
That hug was one of the most precious memories that Eugene now had. For several beautiful minutes he actually felt like he was part of a family, with real parents and everything. Something he couldn't ever remember feeling. His mother had died giving birth to him and his father had died after the ax slipped while chopping wood. Rapunzel was far more important to him then anything, even life itself he thought to himself, feeling the dried blood on his side.

They were carrying her for almost two hours- arms bound in a painful position behind her back, feet bare, and two giant twins guarding her like two statues over her shoulder. Her long sunny hair cascading from her head, cocooned around her in messy circle while her wide green eyes trained the identical guards- one with eye patch and another with scared face. A drop of sweat trickled down in a thin line along her rounded face as they continued carrying her under the hot morning sun.
"She was an easy catch, Marcus!" Eye patch said to his twin "So bad for a princess." Marcus, the scar-face nodded; she wondered if he was the mute one. They dumped her on the grass and she settled on the ground in a heap. Two of them pulled her up, and her feet were still a bit wobbly from the blow on her head, but most possibly she was too tired to offer any resistance as they shoved her inside the tent.

There are two places in the Bay Area, peninsula specifically, that I always get it from. Dittmers in Mountain View and Village Market in San Francisco. Dittmers charges $5 per ounce ($80/lbs!!!) or $24/lbs for more than a lbs. I faxed Dittmer to fix this pricing error so we will see if he updates the pricing. Village Market has it for around $5/lbs which is more like the price you should be paying for something that is 93.75% table salt and 6.25% sodium nitrite.
As a side note, the recommended amount of 25lbs per ounce is only for a dry cure. If you use a wet brine you must follow the recipe. I have used a recipe which called for 1.5 ounces for a 4-5 lbs brisket using a wet brine.

"I needed a set of address labels that were still unique but I could put on more serious communications / cards, etc. These are gorgeous but are still muted enough that they aren't drawing too much attention, the font is lovely (I used the suggested) and the print is good quality."
"This design caught my eye as it is different from the usual address labels I see on the market. Colors are brilliant and design clear."

very good... very true.
hmmm, I dont know about this..
I feel pretty provoked when I see an attractive female wearing anything more flattering than a bed sheet. I think that islam got it right with the burqa.
If women dressed like a ninja, men might be too afraid to rape them! ;)
But it is considered rape if a woman has consensual sex while intoxicated. So how is that fair? And, considering women have no regard for how the way they dress/present themselves as highly sexual beings affects the men around them, I'd be wary of claiming they have zero fault in the matter.
"But it is considered rape if a woman has consensual sex while intoxicated."
No. I highly doubt that is what the sign is implying.
"And, considering women have no regard for how the way they dress/present themselves as highly sexual beings affects the men around them, I'd be wary of claiming they have zero fault in the matter."
That's a bit like saying people who wear expensive clothes are asking to get mugged, or men who dress flamboyantly are partially at fault for getting fag bashed. While it is true that certain manners of dress may make someone stand out as a target for certain crimes, I find it very difficult to suggest that this makes them in any way at fault for someone else's criminal activity.
I think if a person says they would rape because the woman is dressed in a provocative manner is an indictment on the rapist not the victim. Not very long ago, people went around with the barest clothing and there are no recorded incidences of rape. A rapist will be a rapist whether the victim is in jeans pants, walking naked, or wearing a sari!
Rape is not sex; it is violence.
I agree with the spirit of this comment, but disagree with it on technical grounds. Rape is both.
But the fact that it IS violent, and that the sex is not consensual, is far more important.
Could someone being intoxicated lead them to be raped? Yes, if it made them more vulnerable to an attack. Could dressing provocatively? I suppose greater attention might be drawn, thus leading to attack, but from what I've read a lot of sexual predators seek out victims anyway. Recklessness is possible, depending on what it was. Does any of this mean that if the person victimized were intoxicated, dressed provocatively, behaved recklessly, etc. they were to blame? No. Does it diminish the guilty of their attacker? No. Does this poster express more than a tautology? Also no. By way of analogy, it does not help prevent murder by saying "People are murdered because murderers murder." One does not have to blame the murder victim for their to be proposals that may diminish their chance of being murdered. Nor is their murderer any the less to blame if they are murdered.
I don't accept that a 'victim' must always be 0% to blame for the actions of the perpetrator. For instance, if I walked into a crowd of violent and protesting muslims with a sign that shows Mo with a bomb on his turbin and I get injured or killed - Who in their right minds would say that I was 0% to blame for the actions of the muslims. Of course I was also to blame. The fact of the matter is the muslims had an intolerance for that sort of a depiction of Mo and I knew well enough I was putting myself in danger.
To say that I was killed or injured because someone killed me or injured me - to me - sounds ludicrous.
Also I know this isn't at all the circumstance that most rapes occur in - such as a woman sexually flaunting herself in front of a man that she isn't familiar with and doesn't know his history or his personality and then claiming 'I've been raped' - But I can't for the life of me see how each and every time the 'victim' of the rape can be claimed to be 0% at fault for it.
Who in their right minds would say that I was 0% to blame for the actions of the muslims.
You are to blame for your actions, not theirs, unless you were exerting some form of body or mind control. At the end of the incident, we may all look back and judge who bore what responsibility for the overall situation, but ultimately every individual bears responsibility for their own actions.
Were your actions advisable in that hypothetical scenario? No, but that doesn't create justification for the violent response.
When it comes to rape, no matter how poorly a person behaves, can you think of a single, solitary reason that justifies or provokes you into raping them? I honestly cannot, and if I could, I would hope that I could get help with whatever has gone off inside my head. Perhaps the way someone behaves or dresses does make them more likely to be a target, but it simply does not explain why the rapist was motivated to rape in the first place. That is on the perpetrator, not the victim.

Khao Soi in Boston?
- Dave MP Nov 3, 2010 08:04 AM
- 39
- Follow
I just got back from the Twin Cities, MN, where I had some great Thai food - including khao soi. I'm wondering where in Boston I can try this dish....
I have read that Khao Sarn in Brookline has it. Any specific reports about this?
I don't see it on S&I's menu, but perhaps they can make it anyway? Although I suppose it takes a while to prepare, since it involves stewed chicken....do they ever have it as a special?
The dish is of Burmese origins, (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khao_soi) so it definitely has something in common with the Chicken/Coconut Noodle Soup served at YoMa, which I still haven't tried....
Thanks in advance,
Dave MP
Khao Sarn
250 Harvard St, Brookline, MA 02446
Rod Dee (now in Washington square Brookline) has Khao Soi but I don't remember having tried it there (although it has been one of my favorite dishes, elsewhere). I don't think Montien has it. I usually have to wear a plastic bib so that the curry broth coming off the two types of noodles doesn't splatter all over my shirt ;)
0 -
Khao Sarn does indeed have it; I like it, though like many dishes on its menu, it's probably more refined and offers less pungent/insinuating flavors that you might expect. I have not been back to Brown Sugar Cafe or The Similans lately, but both used to have it on their menus. The dish you want at YoMa is OhnNohKhotSwe, which is described as a soup.

re: lipoff
Tamarind House, love it, their Pad Kee Mao is good, it used to be a bit better when they had the cherry sized eggplants in it. Their Yum Talay is my favorite SE asian summer dish, also the owner's favorite. Even the quality of the tea is good. Prik Pon is my magic fairy pixy dust as of late.
The owner is from a town famous for Tamarind crops. She's great!

re: qianning
Because it's not the same dish. It's a Thai dish that developed from OhnNohKhotSwe, but it seems to have gone off in its own direction.
0 -
re: qianning
Like Allstonian said, they are not really the same dish, though the dishes probably share similar origins.
Here's a thread from the SF board where this dish is discussed a bit more:
http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/447845And here's a link to the Wikipedia article which explains the different types of khao soi. The version I had in St. Paul last weekend was exactly like the "Thai" version described in this article.
0 -
re: qianning
Yep, there is a difference in the two interpretations of this dish. I've had the great opportunity to have both the Burmese and Thai versions in the respective countries - both delicious and different (same same but different). I haven't had Yoma's OhnNohKhotSwe yet (still...grrr) but I've yet to find really good Khao Soi in Boston. We head to SE Asia again in two weeks...I'll be revved up to find any comparable dishes Stateside so I'll try to do some research once we're home.
re: digga
I stand corrected, my memory was that they were pretty much the same dish, but this thread sent me looking through all my Thai & Burmese cookbooks, and indeed the Thai versions all include some form/amount of soy sauce (which really surprised me) and some form/amount of sugar (which doesn't surprise me), where as Burmese versions never use either of these ingredients but always include besan flour as a thickener, which none of the Thai recipes use.
I've never had Khao Soi at any restaurant in Boston, but I have had the OhnNohKhotSwe at Yo Ma, and it is pretty good, but not my favorite dish from their menu by a long shot.
re: FoodDabbler
"The Food of Burma" in the Periplus series is excellent in that the recipes come true, although the overall number of recipes is limited. Also, "Burmese Cooking" by Aung Aung Taik, and "Flavors of Burma" by Chan.
re: CookieLee
I think you may be working on outdated information: there is no longer a Malaysian stall behind Wisteria, and there hasn't been for ages. (Heck, Wisteria itself has been closed for months! And for that matter, all this is in Allston, not Brighton.) That space is now a Thai restaurant called Smile Thai. I make no claims about their khao soi, because I usually get either the larb or the country-style pad thai.
re: Jenny Ondioline
oh dear, thanks for the update. I'll have to mosey on over there and see what's happenin'.
Lam's in Newtonville also has Khao Soi.
0 -
re: CookieLee
By "the place behind Wisteria," if you mean the Thai restaurant called Smile Thai, then yes. It had seemed like you were talking about the Malaysian place that Smile Thai replaced.
re: nasilemak
Now that you mention it, there were two short-lived restaurants in there in quick succession before Smile Thai moved in, and it's possible that one of them was Malaysian and one of them was Indonesian, or that they were both one or the other. But whatever they were, they've been gone for ages.

Hey I'm new to League but not to writing. Want to share something I wrote up with my favorite champion Shen and the newest one. Hope you enjoy.
Shen sat by the edge of a koi pond, his legs folded in, and his eyes closed in thought. Strong winds from the east stripped the leaves off the mulberry trees, releasing them into the air about him. Despite the biting cold, the Eye of the Twilight did not move. Not the slightest shiver, nor flinch. He sat perfectly still as the world whirled around him.
The story of his life, he mused.
He was to be Judgment unclouded. To be the Truth set free from the world. He was to endure everything and anything so he that could be worthy to hold the title of the World's Arbiter. Only the pure were worthy to Watch the Stars.
And yet… he did not know if he could fulfill his duty now.
For his father's murderer had come to his doorstep. Zed had come to the League.
The wind screeched as it picked up speed. The leaves in the wind were starting to batter him.
Was this the equilibrium's way of telling him to kill Zed? Or was this a test of his resolve to remain pure and unclouded? Zed was most certainly an agent of chaos; everywhere he strode, imbalance took root and blossomed, like an infection. And yet, who was to say that Zed's death would right anything? What good would it do to balance the world by removing Zed if he himself were only to take his place?
Shen let his breath slow for a single breath; it was his way of sighing.
It was not like him to philosophize.
Shen slowly put a hand on the rock lip of the pond in front of him. He easily transferred all his weight to his hand, until he was fully supported by him single limb. He straightened his legs out until he was horizontal over the ground. Carefully, he raised his body; his legs rose into in the air, and his planted arm was straightening out. Soon he was doing a handstand one a single palm.
He pushed himself onto his fingers. Four fingers supported his entire weight now.
He drew one back. Three.
But a deep, soulless voice cut in.
"It's not like you to let your guard down… brother."
Shen knew who it was. He fell back onto his feet, and stood up straight. He turned to face his adversary. He turned to face his former brother.
His old friend.
His father's killer.
A man with a hulking physique squatted on a branch in the mulberry tree. He was wrapped in crimson cloth, all new and vivid; results of the funds he and his army of shadow ninjas horded by taking assassination missions across Valoran. Strapped to his arms were vambraces that housed two vicious retractable blades each. Hanging from his back were two monstrously huge throwing stars, more likely to take a head off than to injure like normal throwing stars would, and finally, his skull was wrapped in the protection of a wicked metal helm, more like a knight in armor would wear than a ninja.
The Master of Shadows had finally come to find him.
"Hm!" Zed leapt from the branch; onto the ground in front of Shen. The shadow ninja landed bodily onto the tiled rock, cracking the old granite. "I could have killed you a thousand times over as youdaydreamed like a little girl. You've gotten slow."
Shen turned to face the self-proclaimed Shadow Master.
"If you are here to kill me," Shen led on, "Then try it."
Zed's eyes, shrouded darkness of in his sharpened helm, caught the motion of Shen's hands. They were perfectly still, but the Shadow ninja could see that Shen was an inch away from drawing his blades. He knew Shen was about to strike. And Shen knew that he knew. After all, they had played this game many times as children in front of their late master in their sparring matches.
His own hands loosened the blades on his arms.
"Hm." Zed withdrew his blades. The forearm spikes slipped back into their vambraces. Instead, he raised his hand. "Shen. I am not unreasonable. Join me in the Shadow, brother. With your strength, untold amounts of power await you. Secrets that could change the world lay waiting for those strong enough to take it."
"You know my answer."
"Ah, but you hardly know my offer. Think about what we could accomplish together! The balance you so eagerly pursue would finally be realized with enough strength! Balance, order, and world peace can be achieved with this power. If the whole world is dragged under absolute rule, no more would imbalance spread."
Zed clenched his outstretched hand. He seemed to be talking to the world more than Shen now.
"The world would be perfect. No more suffering. No more sacrifice. Think about your comrades! Think of your Fist of Shadow! She was but a child when we took her in, yet how many sins have stained her hands by now in her sacred duty to Prune the Tree? Have you never looked at her and wondered if her life would be happier away from the Kinkou?"
"Always." Shen fixed Zed with his fiercest stare. "I have never forgotten the sacrifice Akali and the rest of us have made for the world. I love my comrades." Flashbacks of his father's head, severed at the base of the neck and thrown into the air like a rotten fruit by Zed cut into his mind. "Unlike you."
"Yet because you and your remnants lack the strength to defeat imbalance once and for all, she and everyone else suffer, and continue to suffer!"
Shen fell silent at this. He knew that Zed's argument made sense. But he also saw what happens to those who imbalance themselves to balance the world. Equilibrium would never be realized by brute force.
Shen turned away.
"You fool. You will never understand until it's too late."
Zed growled at this.
"Don't you dare talk down to me, Brother."
The Shadow Ninja drew out the last word; sarcasm dripping from his deep voice. His bloodlust was rising. Zed was starting to see death in his eyes now.
"Have you forgotten so easily... how the Shadows let me overpower you in our final duel?" Zed started circling about Shen's back. His blades quietly slipped out of their sheaths.
"Have you forgotten so soon who is the stronger of us now?!"
"Yes. I have never forgotten...." Shen turned to face Zed, and for the first time since Shen took on the mantle of Eye of the Twilight, Zed saw in his eyes… Sadness. "How I failed you, Brother."
"RAAAGH!" Zed charged the Eye of the Twilight, his forearm blades shooting out like fangs. Zed delivered a vicious blow to Shen's chest, a blow that was deflected by a twist of the Eye of the Twilight's hands. The blades arced downwards, hissing as the sliced the air, and struck deep into the granite rock of the earth below them. They were immediately stuck fast.
Before Zed could react, Shen pulled his hands upwards, and then brought them back down over Zed's head in a crushing two-handed blow.
The blow shot through the metal helm, and rattled the skull and brain inside. Zed slumped to the ground, his blades now broken free from the impact. The shadow ninja hit the ground with a meaty thump; stunned. Shen turned to walk away.
But a disturbing voice floated up from the body below him.
Zed rose. He brought his hand to his chin and cracked his neck.
"Good! This is good!"
Zed turned to face Shen. Then another Zed. And another.
Shen looked about, back and forth, at the army that was forming around him. Zeds formed out of shadows, squatted on the branches of the Mulberry trees around them. More Zeds rose out of the ground likes ghosts, sporting blades of shadow or dark throwing stars clenched firmly in the grasp. There were some that came walking in over the water of the Koi pond. Shadows bled off of their feet and contaminated the water below turning it inky black. The koi inside died almost immediately, rising to surface, burned black.
Soon, dozens of Zeds surrounded the Eye of Twilight in their choking darkness. All of them were bleeding dark smoke that stung the eyes and burned the throat.
A Zed strode up to Shen, and leveled his blade at Shen's neck. The point of the shadow blade burned at Shen's flesh.
"We have some unfinished business, brother. Let's pick up our duel where we left it."
Shen raised his hands to grip the ninja swords strapped to his back.
But before they could strike, an explosion of shadow rocked the army of Zeds to Shen's left. The sound of Shadow Zeds shouting and cursing drew nearer and nearer as whatever was causing it shot straight towards Shen.
The Zeds nearest Shen all turned to attack the unknown threat, but it burst through them with a flying kick, and removed their heads with a flourish of her ninja scythes.
Akali, Fist of the Shadow, rolled through the air, and rammed the shadow Zed in front of Shen in the chest with a flying kick. The Zed stumbled back, a hole in his chest, and then exploded in a cloud of smoke.
"Akali!" Shen shouted, but she ignored him.
"Zed…" Akali snarled, glaring at the shadows about her. "Do you know who I am?"
One of the Zeds glanced at a severed limb that Akali's scythe had made in his shadowy limb. That Zed looked up to answer her.
"Hm. You were but a child when I was banished by our master. But your skill is adequate. You would do well with us, Fist of the Shadow. Will you have what it takes to do what your comrade will not?"
Zed stretched out his hand to Akali. His palm, surrounded by blade, faced up.
"Will you join us in our quest for power?"
Akali hissed, raising her scythes.
"I will never stoop to your level!"
"Hm. So you say. But your heart has passion. Strength. Sooner or later, it will desire the strength to protect what is important to it."
Zed stepped away, as the shadowy illusions about him faded into the black. He was slipping away into the darkness. His body melted into the night, until only his deep voice was left.
"And when you finally need it… I'll be waiting."
And he was gone.
Akali lowered her scythes. She had no answer to Zed's prediction.
Shen moved to her.
"Shen! Are you alright!"
It was obvious she was trying to avoid the questions raised by Zed. She was always like that when they trained together at the Kinkou, prodigious in both skill and temperament. She did not belong with us ninjas. She would have made a great and famous warrior in some rich Ionian noblemen's retainer, or in the service of the Placidium with Captain Irelia and her Guard. Her gifts from the gods deserved her a good life in the light of the world, but instead she grew up with us in the shadows.
"Shen… you knew him, right?"
In response, Shen looked out in the direction Zed left.
"He was my brother once. He took everyone in my family away from me. Including himself." Shen glanced at Akali, and put a hand on her shoulder. "But it is alright. I have new comrades now."
You could see Akali's small grin even through her mask. But still, she sensed something that troubled Shen. He seemed a little sad. His eyes looked blankly out into the distance, and he didn't make a sound.
"Is everything ok? What's wrong?"
Shen gazed at the dead koi in the pond. Shadows blackened their flesh.
"Those were beautiful fish."
I care!
I thought it was really well written, probably one of the best LoL fanfics I've read! It might be your title that's deterring people; it just sounds a little too generic and in all honesty I was tempted to skim past this thread simply because the title left much to be desired.
But I'm glad I did read it! Really enjoyed it will you be writing more?
i wrote it as stand alone but I have other stuff to do.
truth be told, i have a story on here already, so i won't have time to continue this, but i wanted to see what the difference was on GD. Not that different, tbh. I wouldn't exactly recommend it. Part of the reason of the bad title is that i wanted the writing to stand alone on its own merits.

Did your LO seem sick after their 4 month shots? My ds got his shots yesterday afternoon. He was a little irritable last night and I gave him tylenol. He ended up sleeping 7 hours last night which was a first. He's been sleepy this morning and has had diarrhea and just took his temp and it was 100.9. He isn't nursing as well either. I just talked to a nurse and she said that is normal and he should be back to normal in 24 hours. So anyone else have this happen?
4 month shot - symptoms afterwards
Paisley was fussy after her 2 month shots and more sleepy but was back to normal the next day pretty much. Yesterday she had her 4 month shots and did very well; not as bad as the 2 month ones. I didn't even need to give her Tylenol. She's acting like her normal self today.
The sleepiness is normal and loss of appetite I would expect to be normal too. If they told you this is all normal then I'd give it the 24 hours and if still acting this way I'd just call back. I just think it's all normal for the vaccines - some babies get like that I think.
Maybe you could try bottle feeding today? Could be that his legs are a little sore so it might be a pain to lay on them while nursing? I did bottles after her 2 month ones just so I wouldn't have to put pressure on her legs when I nursed her.
My LO did great with the two month shots but not so much with the four month ones. She was super irritable, wouldn't eat, wanted to be held, fought her sleep, had a fever, no smiles or cooing, and a local reaction where to needles went in her leg. She was back to her normal all smiles, giggles, and talkative self within two days. Keep giving the tylenol and LO will be back to normal soon.

Aww, poor babies. My ODD never did good with her shots until she turned 2. It was always fever, diarhea which would result in an absolutly terrible diaper rash and super sleepy/clingy/crying little girl.
YDD did pretty good with her 2 month shots, mild fever, no diarhea or rash and slept and ate like normal. We go in next week for the 4 month ones so we will see how she does then.Â

My twins got their 4 month shots on Monday. On Tuesday, one of them had a fever of 101.6. We took her to the ped to get checked out because her temp seemed a little too high for my taste. They said her throat was a little red so they did a strep test just in case. It was negative so they ped said it just looked like a reaction to the shots. We gave her some infant Tylenol as the ped directed and she was perfectly fine the next morning. The other twin had no issues at all. Go figure.

Selling 2x 10" JL Audio Subs + Amp + MORE
I am selling my whole entire audio system out of a double cab Tacoma. Everything is custom fit for the truck and is in perfect working condition. With this setup, it is easy to place the subs behind the back seats and the amp underneath the passenger seat cleanly.
Anyone that knows audio will agree that JL Audio is top of the line. If you want hard-hitting bass with premium quality, then this is the package for you. This bundle includes: - (2) 10" JL Audio W0v2 Subwoofers. Both sub enclosures were professionally built and felted. Each box uses the correct cubic air space for maximum sound. I ran these subs at 375 RMS and handled perfectly. http://i41.tinypic.com/29zbreo.jpg http://i43.tinypic.com/zx8jtv.jpg - HIFONICS HFi 1000. This is a 1000 watt amp and goes perfectly with the subs. 1OHM - 1000 watts. 2OHMs - 750 watts. Has a brushed finish and illuminates a deep blue around the HF when on. http://i44.tinypic.com/9stmcn.jpg - HIFONICS Bass Knob. This calibrates the level of bass that the subs put out. I placed this under the air conditioning controls. Illuminates green. http://i40.tinypic.com/30wuttl.jpg - Includes all converters and wires that were used. Saved as much of it as I could. Most of them are Monster Cables with a Scosche e2 converter. http://i40.tinypic.com/2likacl.jpg - I'm also throwing in a Dice Electronics adapter. You can now get quality mp3 sound without going through the cigarette lighter. This works with iPods/iPhones and delivers crisp sound. Also works with the steering wheel settings. http://i41.tinypic.com/34eb394.jpg I'm asking $799 OBO for the whole package. Everything is tailored for the truck and, while the subs are slim, the monster sound will surely not disappoint. I live in Las Vegas, NV and would like to deal locally. If you're close by, maybe we can work something out. If you're at all interested or have any questions, send me a PM. I have plenty more pictures of the lighting, fitting, etc. Thank you. |
Are these the same quality subs as sold in the stealth box sold by JL side by side? Pardon my audio knowledge or lack of, however I was told that the subs they load in their boxes are bottom of the line subs. Are yours any better or similar?
http://www.jlaudio.com/car-audio-ste...uble-cab-05-up Now as you can see, these are the 10W1v2-4 subs. I've heard these in comparison to the w0, and they are two completely different sounds. These 10W1v2-4s are for a rock bass. They recommend 60-300 watts a sub. With my W0s, they take 375. Also if you look at the box, they're basically just taking up half of the space behind the seats. Why not take up the full space behind the seats for so much more power? Mine use more space for bass, and they use the correct cubic air space to give you maximum sound. In my opinion, this stealthbox is simply too small for two subs -- even if they're shallow. With my subs you will be hearing much more bass than this stealthbox ever could offer. The W0s are not bottom of the line either. They're actually one of their premium shallow mount subs. Since, like the comment above says, trucks have limited space (unless you want to take up the back seat) shallow are the way to go. You're paying a $749.95 price tag + tax + possible shipping + an amp + wires + converters + possible installation fee + for LESS quality bass with the stealth box. If you have any other questions I would be glad to answer them. |
Happy Easter
You willing to split it up??
Well I have an interested buyer right now, but PM me your offer anyways.
Sorry to all PMs. Been out of town.
offer me
All times are GMT -7. The time now is 06:41 AM. |

We bought the Alison's Montessori and Kid Advance stuff. There was just no reason for the ultra-pricy premium stuff--the premium stuff is made to withstand 30+ kids a year for like 10 years. I needed to be able to use them for 2 kids a year for like 5 years. The AM and KA stuff has held up really well and I'm glad I didn't spend the extra. When you go to sell it on ebay, you're likely to get a much lower price since it would just be other parents buying it for the most part, so it would be really hard to recover any of your costs with the more expensive stuff.
We're unschoolers but do have some Montessori works at home--from both ends of the price spectrum. I agree with the PP about quality, but it also depends on how you feel about where/how stuff is made. The Kid Advance item we have is MIC and did have a strong smell for a couple of weeks (varnish?). The European-made items we have weren't made under questionable labor practices and had no such odor.
There's also a Montessori manufacturer in Tennessee, I believe.

Full review…I Come in Peace actually isn't as bad as it has every right to be, given that it is an extremely derivative sci-fi, buddy-cop picture.

Edge ShowTek Makes Use of AuviTran EtherSound Unit for Red Bull Fuel & Fury
BUENA PARK, Calif.âMore than 5,000 attendees flocked to the site of this yearâs Red Bull Fuel & Fury snowmobile jumping event. Held in early November in Chicago, they witnessed seven of the worldâs best freestyle snowmobilers at the largest single event of the year.
Edge ShowTek (Northbrook, IL) was tasked with the audio production for the event, making good use of the new AuviTran AVM-500ES unit to maintain an EtherSound network within the entire digital system. The system consisted of a Yamaha PM5D-RH digital console, two Yamaha SB-168ES Stage Boxes, 36 NEXO GEO S8 speakers, 12 CD12 subs split between four towers, six NEXO PS15s, and five NEXO NXAMP 4x4s amplifiers.
The AVM-500ES unit is an EtherSound Network Matrix housed in a 19â 1U rack box for linking and routing up to five EtherSound networks together, Integrating a full matrix router of 320 x 320 audio channels. âThe unit worked very well, states Pete Hansen, Operations Manager, Edge ShowTek. The reason we decided to use the AVM-500 was to maintain an EtherSound network throughout the whole system, which would not have been possible without the unit, or at least very undesirable from a cabling standpoint.â
Hansen said the setup for this system was quite unique in that speaker positions were both in front of and behind the Yamaha front of house position. The Edge ShowTek crew used a combination of Cat5 and Fiber Optic cable runs that were fairly long and non-linear with about 200-300 feet between each speaker tower. They were able to save about 1,000 feet of cable run by splitting the ES network in front of, and behind, the front of house position by using the AVM-500.
âWe have been using EtherSound as a method of running multi-channel digital audio for years, says Hansen. Itâs amazing to hear how well the audio fidelity is maintained when you never leave the digital domain, says Hansen. If you are going to use a digital console, you might as well run in a digital format like EtherSound as much as possible. The AVM-500ES allowed us to do just that over the whole system, and it sounded phenomenal.â
âAn event like Fuel & Fury was an ideal use of EtherSound networking given the large distances between microphone sources, speaker towers and the Yamaha front of house, notes Trevor Waller, of Edge ShowTek and A1 for the event. With announcer microphones over 600 feet away from the mix position, the ability to send those sources to the Yamaha PM5D-RH console digitally with virtually no line losses was a great advantage in making sure the event could be heard by everyone even over the roar of snowmobiles in the air. The unit was virtually plug and play and allowed us to save valuable setup time, both in its ease of patching and integration into our system.â
