Once the six of them arrived at Sweet Apple Acres, it turned out that things were a lot worse than they'd originally thought it would be. There had been bad floods before, but this was on a whole other level. The water was so high now that Applejack's family had to get around by way of makeshift boats they'd made out of large wooden buckets. They were all doing what they could, but it was clear that this situation wasn't going to get better anytime soon. A sentiment that Applejack herself now voiced.
"I've never seen the floodin this bad. They've built dams around here before, but never like this. What's goin on?" She asked.
The five ponies, Twilight, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Rainbow Dash, all stood on a nearby hill, looking down at the devastation the floods were causing. Further down the land, where the beavers had built their unusually extensive dams, Fluttershy, still bearing her elements, was hovering above the nearest dam and was trying to speak to one of the beavers. Most of the creatures simply continued to work on their building in spite of her protests, although a few started mouthing some inaudible squeaks and clicks at her, much to her shock.
"Such language!" She exclaimed.
Seeing no other option, she flew over to where her friends had gathered on the hill, worry covering her face.
"It's no use. They won't listen to a word I say." She remarked, pointing at the dams before them.
Rainbow Dash, as ever, flew up to the yellow pegasus and said to her what she knew to be true.
"You see Discord's behind all this, right?" She asked.
Fluttershy frowned at the remark before responding to it.
"Well of course I do! Do you think I'm a silly gullible fool?"
The other ponies started to look rather uncomfortable at that question. In truth they'd all suspected her of being in denial over the whole affair. Ever since the Princess had charged them with reforming the lord of chaos, Flutterhsy had been sticking up for him, defending him against all the accusations that her friends had thrown at him. It had reached a point where the ponies felt that she must be deliberately lying to herself about his true nature. But, as Fluttershy had just stated, that was clearly not the case.
"I've just been trying to keep his friendship any way I can, so he comes to trust and listen to me."
At that moment, their conversation was interrupted by a call from across the flooded land.
"Hey there Fluttershy! You want a turn? The water's great!"
The ponies looked out to see the strange sight of Discord himself, donned in water-sport clothing and skiing across the flood waters by way of his powers. Oblivious to their plight, Discord did a flip in the skis as Flutterhsy, now frowning, watched.
"Time to see if this works." She said to herself.
The spirit of chaos slid across the water right up to where the ponies had gathered,. He jumped off his skis and landed right next to Fluttershy.
"Oh Fluttershy, there you are. A sight for sore eyes." He remarked.
Fluttershy ignored his clearly flippant attitude and pointed down to where the beavers had built their large dams.
"As you can see, there's a big mess down here at Sweet Apple Acres."
Discord's expression clearly showed his disinterest in the pony's problem as he busied himself with drying off from the water.
"Oh yes. Awful business that." He said, clearly not caring for just how awful it was.
Fluttershy flapped her wings and lifted herself up, hovering forward until she was right in front of him.
"Is IS awful! This is Applejack's home! And it's being destroyed by innocent creatures who would never behave this way if it weren't for your reckless behaviour!" She accused.
Discord turned to her, quite taken aback by the comment. In the brief time he'd been living with her, not once had she ever stood up to him or criticised the things he did, no matter how chaotic he became. And now Fluttershy, this tiny timid pegasus was right in his face, trying to make him feel guilty about what he'd done. HIM the living embodiment of chaos and anarchy. Was this a joke? Because it certainly felt that way to him.
Although for the time being he did not let his expression give away that particular though, instead choosing to feign ignorance as Fluttershy made her final demand.
"You need to fix this.". She said outright.
She turned from him, still hovering in mid-air and folded her forelegs. Discord considered her demand. And as he thought about it, a particular notion came to mind, as notion he absolutely revelled in. This disaster at the farm had given him the opportunity he'd been looking for.
"Yes. Very well. I will fix this. I only ask one thing in return."
Fluttershy turned to face him once more as her heart leapt. If he was willing to undo this problem on AJ'S farm, then he was one step closer to becoming reformed. Fluttershy was happy about this. He'd been a difficult person to get along with, but she'd stuck to it, knowing that she could win him over if she was simply kind to him. And now it seems that her plan had worked. She smiled as she faced him.
"Yes?" She asked.
Discord then gave his condition.
"I ask......" He began.
He then pointed one of his mis-matched fingers right against Fluttershy's pink butterfly necklace.
"......that you never use your element of harmony against me."
Fluttershy was shocked. She looked down at her element, the only thing she knew could stop him if he ever went bad again. Looking up at the spirit again, she saw him waiting patiently for her answer, smiling as he did so. She knew that this was no small thing he was asking. Knowing what he was capable of, this could all be some trick on his part, as her friends had warned her it might.
"As a sign of our friendship". Discord added.
That remark was all the more stinging for her. She'd gone out of her way to make Discord feel like he had friends, that he was welcome and that she trusted him. And she believed on some level that trust would never be fully possible as long as she possessed a weapon that could be used against him at a moment's notice. But if this was a trick, then her accepting it would not only doom herself, but also her friends and perhaps all of Equestria.
She turned around and looked over to her friends. They were all silently shaking their heads frantically, trying to convince her not to go through with this. But, as Fluttershy looked back at Discord, she thought back to all the times they'd refused to hear him out, hear her out. It was clear to her that, right from the start, not one of them had any faith in his ability to change, that they wanted to keep hating him for what he'd done to them in the past. And although she could not blame them for being angry at him, she refused to allow herself to be dictated by a grudge.
She raised her hooves behind her neck and unclasped her necklace, removing it from her.
"I will never use my element of harmony against you." She declared.
Then, much to everypony's further shock, she threw her element on the ground next to where Twilight and Spike were standing. Discord meanwhile, had changed his expression. His smile from, before had changed into a smirk that seemed to openly mock what Fluttershy had just done.
"Excellent!" He yelled in triumph.
Raising his hand, he snapped his fingers, which led to a blinding flash of white light which encompassed the entire are. The ponies closed their eyes from the light, only to open them again when it eventually died down. When they could see again, Fluttershy, still smiling, looked upon the land in front of her, expecting the floods to have vanished as Discord promised they would.
Instead, her smile vanished as what was now in front of her was not a dry farmland, but the exact same floods, now completely frozen. Discord meanwhile was ecstatic over the whole affair.
"There! Much better! I do prefer ice-skating to water-skiing, don't you?" He declared.
The malicious spirit was sliding along the ice, doing spins and acrobatics, impressing a nearby panel of Discord clone he'd conjured up. However, Fluttershy had become enraged by this turn of events. he'd given her his word that he would fix things. She'd trusted him, and now he'd spat it back at her over this.
"DISCORD!" She shouted.
The other ponies looked at her, shocked over how loud she'd become. In all the time they'd known her, she had very rarely become angry over anything, and certainly not to this degree. The look of rage on her face as she then ran out onto the ice made them realise that trying to stop her would be a big mistake.
"That is NOT fixing it!" She continued.
Discord, hearing her yells, stopped his antics and turned to face her as she rapidly approached.
"Why I ought to......" Fluttershy began.
But before she could finish, she started sliding on the ice out of control, slipping right past Discord. The latter turned and smiled as she did this, clearly not concerned for her well-being.
"Where are you going?" He asked mockingly.
After Fluttershy eventually stopped sliding, she faced him angrily. Discord though walked up to her and bent over, still showing no remorse for his betrayal.
"What's wrong pal?" He asked.
Fluttershy narrowed her eyes further, his words now sounding foul to her. She'd called him her friend and now he treated that like a joke.
"Don't call me pal!" She shouted.
Discord then got closer and placed a finger on the side of her face.
"Oh, come skating with me and we'll let bygones be bygones." He said.
Using his powers, he conjured a quartet of ice-skating shoes fit for her. And held them in front of her with his tail. Before she could respond to this she, along with Discord, noticed an approaching figure sliding on the ice towards them. They saw that it was Spike, and in his hands was Fluttershy's discarded element, which he presented to her as soon as he stopped slipping about.
"Here you go Fluttershy! Game on!" He declared.
Fluttershy looked at the element before drawing her attention to the nearby hill, where she heard the voice of Twilight calling out to her.
"He fixes this or he goes back to stone!"
The yellow pegasus turned from them to look once more at her element as Twilight continued to speak to her.
"Princess Celestia will understand!"
Fluttershy looked from her element, to Discord's gift of shoes, to the element again, then back to the shoes, before closing her eyes tight. After a few moments of careful consideration, she yelled out her decision.
"I made a promise not to use my element against him, and I'm going to keep it!"
She once more turned to Discord and took the shoes he created in her mouth before starting to walk off. The other ponies, astounded by what they had just witnessed, all exclaimed their disbelief in their own various ways, from Twilight's look of shock to Applejack covering her face with her hat. Not moments after this, Discord appeared over Fluttershy's head in a bright flash of light, before pointing to the other five element-bearers in mockery.
"Haha! You see? She wants to have fun with me because "we're friends". She can't use the element against me because "we're friends". I'm free forever!"
His harsh words cut into Fluttershy like a knife, driving her anger up more and more with every word he spoke. Her expression grew angrier, letting all know the kind of raw hurt she was feeling. But Discord didn't care. Instead, he merely threw back his head and laughed heartily.
But this was the final straw for Fluttershy. She had given this creature every chance one would be willing to give him and more. She'd welcomed him into her home. She'd done everything possible to try and make him into a better person. She'd even stood up to her closes friends in an effort to do something she felt deep down was for a good cause, his cause. And in the end, all Discord cared about was himself. And when she realised that, when she suddenly understood just who this creature truly was deep down, she just gave up.
"Not. Your. FRIEND!!!" She yelled out.
She threw the ice shoes away from her, not wanting anything made by this guy anywhere near her. This display had no effect on the lord of chaos however, as his following tone showed.
"Whop cares? I can do whatever I want, whenever I want! I'm Discord! The master of chaos!"
In another flash of light, Discord disappeared from his previous position and appeared again right next to Fluttershy, who at this point was walking away from him, unable to look at him anymore. As they continued walking, Discord continued his rant.
"Did you really think your pitiful attempts to change me would have any effect? That I'd just roll over and turn good because an adorable little pegasus acted sweetly to me? That I'd stay away from my natural calling, that of a bringer of chaos? If so then you're even more of a fool than I thought. And so was Celestia for thinking that somepony like you could ever have power over me!"
Fluttershy stopped walking. She said nothing, merely looking up at the spirit with a look of sheer disappointment in her face. The spirit was still unaffected however, and continued his scathing remarks against her.
"What a letdown you must be feeling like! You tried so hard to change me and all you get for your trouble is a knife in the back. Element of kindness. HAH! Look where your kindness has gotten you! You thought you could make me care. But the one thing you should know about chaos my dear, is that chaos DOESN'T care about anyone or anything!"
He walked past her, still causing no reaction or counter-remarks from the young pegasus. The silence bothered him, but not enough to make him stop his harshest comment of all.
"At the very least I was able to find somepony out here that I could say was like me in some small way. All this time I tried to manipulate you, just like you tried to manipulate me. We each tried to change the other for our own ends. The only difference is that my victory came from something as easy as a broken promise."
It was at this point that Discord, still with his back to the ponies, finally heard Fluttershy speak.
"You're right. A broken promise brought you victory. And that, it seems, is something else we now have in common."
The spirit raised an eyebrow. What did she mean? Before he could react, he heard a noise from behind him. A hauntingly familiar noise. He sun around, and to his horror, he saw Flutterhsy, still looking angry at him and worse still, wearing her element around her neck once more. She was flanked on either side by her five friends, whose respective elements were now glowing brightly.
Discord stepped back in shock over what he was seeing. Fluttershy had actually done it. She'd done the one thing he never suspected she would do. She'd stooped down to his level. He considered running, but he knew that the power of the elements would find him sooner or later. His only course, to simply accept what he knew was coming. The elements glowed brighter before finally releasing their energy, once more in the form of a bolt of rainbow-coloured magic. It shot towards the spirit and struck, engulfing him and a rainbow vortex.
As he stood there, not resisting the power that was now overcoming him, Discord merely looked beyond the vortex and straight at the yellow pegasus, who stood there beside her friends, her eyes already filled with regret over what she was doing. And the spirit merely smiled. A smile that did not seek to comfort or befriend, but one that sought only to show victory.
"Well played Fluttershy. Well played".
With those final words, the power of the elements finished their work. The element bearers, headed by Fluttershy, walked forward to see their work. Discord was now encased is stone once more. But whereas before his pose was one of resistance, here he merely stood normally, his face still bearing that scathing smile. Within moments, the same magic of the element that had imprisoned him got to work on the surrouding area. The frozen water vanished without a trace, the beaver dams disappeared, and the animals themselves reverted back to their original way of behaving. Everything was once more back to normal, just as it had been the first time they'd used the elements on him.
The other ponies said nothing, merely looked over to Fluttershy, who, eyes filling with tears, shut them tightly and walked away.
After a lengthy wait, Princess Celestia had arrived, after having received a letter from Twilight explaining what had happened. The Princess arrived with her accompanying guards and a second chariot. As Twilight was busying herself with explaining the finer details to Celestia, the guards were busy in hoisting the statue form of Discord back onto the chariot. Once in place it was secured with heavy chains in order to prevent it from falling during the long flight home.
Celestia, having heard Twilight's full account of what had happened, closed her eyes and sighed.
"......I see."
Twilight hung her head before her mentor, expecting the Princess to declare how disappointed she was that she and the other had failed in the task she'd set for them. Instead, she felt the Princess' hoof under her chin, gently pulling her face up to look at her.
"You did everything you could. I cannot expect any more of anypony than that."
Celestia's tone was clear. It was not Twilight she was disappointed in, but the situation in general. Twilight had known the Princess long enough to know how upset she must be that an attempt to make someone's life better had failed, however hard they might have tried to do so.
The Princess looked up from her pupil and scoured the area, looking for something. She looked back down at Twilight.
"Where is Fluttershy?" She asked.
Twilight turned from her once more. Fluttershy had not spoken to anypony since Discord's imprisonment. She'd merely taken herself off elsewhere to be alone for a while. Twilight couldn't blame her. But the Princess had asked a question, and she had to answer. She pointed off in the direction of Fluttershy's cottage. Celestia drew her gaze to where Twilight was pointing and gave a nod at her pupil before beginning to walk off alone in that direction. The young unicorn decided it was probably for the best that she not follow.
Celestia took her time in getting to the cottage. She did not want any guards with her for this. This was a moment between her and Fluttershy. A moment between her and the pony she'd charged above all others with completing this task.
Eventually she reached her home. She looked ahead and saw that Fluttershy was sitting outside the cottage, on a log next to a small pond. She barely moved, just looked down into the water, her face obscured by her long pink hair. Celestia knew this wasn't going to be a pleasant exchange for either of them ,but she felt that it was something she had to so. She approached quietly until she was mere feet away from the pegasus. She cleared her throat, alerting Fluttershy to her presence. The yellow pegasus sat up straight and looked straight at her in surprise.
"Oh" Princess! I'm sorry, I didn't know you'd arrived yet." She explained.
Celestia held up a hoof, stopping her. Fluttershy became silent once more as she watched Celestia walk around the log and sit down right next to her. The two looked at each other for a while. Saying nothing, merely listening to the sounds around them.
"Fluttershy. I feel I must apologise to you." Celestia said, breaking the silence.
Fluttershy looked up surprised by what she heard.
"Apologise? For what?" She asked.
Celestia looked rather uncomfortable as she began to speak.
"For what you've had to go through. As one of Equestria's rulers, I have come to view every living thing within this realm as a subject, somepony who needs my protection and for me to do what I can to help them. And in a strange way, I began to view Discord the same way. While he and I have never been friends, to be enemies was never something I wanted. I had hooped that, eventually, he'd come to know just how much better life would be if he'd allow others into his heart besides himself."
Celestia closed her eyes and hung her head.
"But it seems I was wrong. And worse still, I let a responsibility pass to those who should never have been exposed to it. And seeing what pain it has caused you, I feel it is my responsibility to bear the blame for what happened."
Fluttershy looked at her, astounded by this vulnerability she had just showed her. But all she could think about was Discord, how he'd mocked her attempts to make friends with him, how he'd betrayed her, lied to her, discarded her like she was nothing. That pain ate away at her. And what's more, like Celestia she viewed it as her fault that all this happened.
"No Princess. I'm the one who should apologise."
Celestia opened her eyes again and looked down at the yellow pegasus.
"I wanted so badly to make Discord my friend, I blinded myself to what he truly was. Whatever good there might have been in him, he threw away a long time ago. I was naive."
The princess placed her hoof under Fluttershy's chin and pulled her face to look at her.
"No sweet child. You did what it is in your nature to do. The element of kindness chose you for a reason. Of all the ponies in this land, you are possessed of a compassion and willingness to help that is unrivalled by any other. You care for every living thing and want the best for them, from the tiniest blade of grass to the most foul of beasts. That is why I chose you. But kindness it seems, is not enough when faced with one who has none himself."
The remark pained Fluttershy to hear, but not more than the pain she felt from another problem.
"But I was no better than him. I broke a promise. I told him I'd never use my element of harmony against him, and I did when he pushed me too far. I've never broken a promise before, nor did I want to ever."
She looked up at the princess once more, her eyes beginning to water.
"I'm not good enough to be the element of kindness."
Celestia frowned, shaking her head.
"You're wrong Fluttershy. You ARE worthy. But kindness takes many forms. While you may not have been kind to Discord on this day, You were still kind. But your kindness was towards all the ponies of Equestria, whose lives you've saved by doing what you did."
Fluttershy looked away from her, instead turning her gaze towards the small pond once more. Celestia looked at what she could see of her face. Although it was again obscured by her long hair, she knew that expression all too well. It was one she'd worn herself many times when tragedy had struck. A look that showed the poor girl was in pain over what happened, but was holding it back, not wanting to show it to others for fear of being seen as weak.
She knew that no matter how much anypony was going to tell her that what she did was the right thing, she'd regret this action she had to take. She would look back on this day for the rest of her life, and view it as her great failure, her inability to help perhaps the one person in all the world who needed it most. And all because that one person was one who neither sought that help, nor wanted it, instead viewing it as a weakness and a joke.
The princess placed a hoof gently on her shoulder. The pegasus looked up at her again, her eyes welling. Celestia's tone was warm, almost motherly.
"I will not say do not weep. For not all tears are an evil."
And with those words, Fluttershy finally relented. She flung herself and the princess and buried her face in her chest, tears pouring from her face.
"Why?! Why did he do it?! Why did he lie?! Why didn't he want friends?" WHY??!!!"
Her screams of grief and agony could be heard from far around, but the princess merely held her and the pained child let out all her sadness out in this place. Celestia knew all too well what if felt like to try and help others, and to fail at doing so. But she looked down at the weeping mare before her, and did all she could to comfort her, despite knowing that no matter what she did, there could never be anything she could do to ease the pain of betrayal.
Just as there was nothing anypony could do, to save the betrayer.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Amala (Bengali: অমলা; died 21 September 1921[1]) and Kamala (Bengali: কমলা; died 14 November 1929) were two "feral girls" from Bengal, India, who were alleged to have been raised by a wolf family.
Their story attracted substantial mainstream attention and debate. However the account was reported and promoted by only one source, the reverend who claimed to have discovered the girls. Because of this, there is some controversy as to the authenticity of the story with some researchers arguing that the girls were autistic. French surgeon Serge Aroles concluded in his book L'Enigme des enfants-loup (Enigma of the Wolf-Children, 2007) that the reverend's story was a hoax.
In 1926, Joseph Amrito Lal Singh, the rector of the local orphanage, published an account in the The Statesman published from Calcutta saying that the two girls were given to him by a man who lived in the jungle near the village of Godamuri, in the district of Midnapore, west of Calcutta, and that the girls, when he first saw them, lived in a sort of cage near the house.[2] Later, he claimed that he himself rescued the girls from the wolves' den on 9 October 1920. He named the children and wrote his observations of them in a "diary" (consisting of loose sheets, some dated and some undated) for almost ten years — which, if accurate, would represent one of the best documented efforts to observe and rehabilitate feral children. The diary entry of 17 October 1920 states, "...the mother wolf, whose nature was so ferocious and affection so sublime. It struck me with wonder. I was simply amazed to think that an animal had such a noble feeling surpassing even that of mankind ... to bestow all the love and affection of a fond and ideal mother on these peculiar beings." Kamala was at the time about eight years old, Amala about 18 months.
Singh claims in his diary that, at the orphanage, the two girls showed wolf-like behaviour typical for feral children. They would not allow themselves to be dressed, scratched and bit people who tried to feed them, rejected cooked food and walked on all fours. Both girls had developed thick calluses on their palms and knees from having walked on all fours. The girls were mostly nocturnal, had an aversion to sunshine, and could see very well in the dark. They also exhibited an acute sense of smell and an enhanced ability to hear.
The girls enjoyed the taste of raw meat and would eat out of a bowl on the ground. They seemed to be insensitive to cold and heat and appeared to show no human emotions of any kind, apart from fear. At night they would howl like wolves, calling out to their "family". They did not speak.
Singh claims that he took on the difficult task of trying to teach them ordinary human behaviour. Amala died in 1921 of a kidney infection. Kamala showed signs of mourning at her death. After this, Kamala became more approachable. She was eventually partially house-trained and became used to the company of other human beings. After years of hard work, she was able to walk upright a little, although never proficiently and would often revert to all fours when she needed to go somewhere quickly, and learned to speak a few words. She died in 1929 of kidney failure.
Because of the many different versions, none of them substantiated by any witnesses other than the Reverend Singh himself, there persists considerable controversy as to the veracity of the account. Most scientists considered Amala and Kamala autistic children with congenital defects.[3] The "myth" of having been raised by wolves is an ancient Indian conception to explain the animal-like behaviour of abandoned children with congenital defects.
According to the French surgeon Serge Aroles, the case of Amala and Kamala is the most scandalous swindle concerning feral children. In his book L'Enigme des enfants-loup (Enigma of the Wolf-Children, 2007), Aroles describes his research of the case. He scrutinised archives and formerly unknown sources and concludes:

The Next Big Apple?
POSTED: Thursday, January 28, 2010 - 8:06am
UPDATED: Tuesday, February 22, 2011 - 9:56am
Apple has unveiled it's long rumored iPad wireless tablet. The iPad combines features of a laptop and the wildly popular iPhone. Apple CEO Steve Jobs says the tablet-style computer is better than either, with seemingly endless features accessible through a 9.7 inch touch screen. "It's phenomenal to see a whole web page right in front of you that you can manipulate with your fingers," he said at the unveiling. They'll hit shelves in March and carry a $499 price tag for the basic model. Of course, more memory will cost more money.

I read some reviews about these wrenches before I purchased them and the main reason I hesitated a little was because of the fact that the production of these wrenches has been moved overseas. After buying them, and using them, I still feel they are of a good quality. I'm not a professional mechanic but I put them through a good torture test and they performed just as good as the "Made in USA" wrenches to me. The only reason I gave them four instead of five stars is because the finished machining on the ends is not as good as the old USA wrenches, but the strength still seems to be there.

A wide range of sizes the only wrench set needed to do most work around the home and auto. The finish is very rugged and don't chip off. Great Value.

I bought these for daily use in my companies manufacturing shop. Some of my guys are not as nice to our tools as others and these are holding up really well. Full size range means not needing to purchase individual wrenches. I love these Craftsman wrenches.

I really like this set. I have had a set of the standard and metric versions for over 15 years. As a home do it yourself mechanic, I use these all the time. I really like this finish over the solid chrome ones so I find these to be a great set. I just bought a second set as I now have two garages and don't want to carry them back and forth between.

I received this toolset for Christmas and the finish looked cheap. I looked on the box and they say they are made in China. I compared to my older Craftsman wrenches that are the same except metric. Those are made in the USA and say so on each wrench. The finish is much better on my old wrenches. I also looked very closely at the working end of the wrenches with a double pair of glasses. The new Chinese Craftsman wrenches were noticeable of lesser quality. Some of the box ends were not centered correctly so some of the walls were thinner than they should be. Some of the open end surfaces had imperfections. Based on looking at them I can tell that the manufacturing process is poorer than it should be. If you can look at a wrench and see things that are wrong it doesn't give you much confidence that the parts of the wrench that you can't see, such as the quality of steel, the hardening process, etc are up to par. I am going to return these wrenches and use the money to buy some wrenches from somewhere else. I used to like Craftsman because they are made in the USA and have a lifetime replacement policy. The tools at ********** and ***** have the same replacement policy now and it is a lot more convenient going to one of those stores than the mall where Sears is. I'll look into their wrench sets to see if they are any better. I suspect they are made in China as well but maybe they are better made. I just can't stomach having the cheaper Craftsman wrenches sitting in the same drawer as my older better quality Craftsman wrenches, and frankly, it made me mad enough to write this honest review.

Zachary Rodgers | February 4, 2008 | Comments
Marketers hope Yahoo's advertising savvy will rub off on Microsoft, but fear price increases.
Much coverage of Microsoft's $44.1 billion bid for Yahoo has focused on the search implications, but the pairing affects display advertising as well. In terms of raw impressions, a combined Microsoft/Yahoo would traffic 59 percent of all U.S.-based display ads, according to Nielsen.
That inventory would come from many buckets, including portals MSN and Yahoo, ad network BlueLithium, Right Media's exchange, aQuantive's DrivePM network, AdECN and both parties' expanding network relationships with the likes of Viacom, Facebook, Digg, and WSJ Digital. (Yahoo owns BlueLithium and Right Media; Microsoft owns aQuantive and AdECN.)
For media buyers that's mostly a good thing, giving them more reach for their targeted buys than previously available in one place. But agency execs also fear the specter of price hikes, as ever more U.S. Web ad inventory is concentrated with just one seller.
Jeff Marshall, SVP Digital Managing Director at Starcom IP, is among the concerned. "You always have to question when supply gets consolidated, is control shifting to that side?" Marshall said. "Then, are they going to wield that control to manipulate pricing?"
But Marshall said the potential deal's upside -- better targeting based on behavioral and registration data -- outweighs the dangers for now.
"We're still in such an early stage of digital marketing that this consolidation only helps us in being able to add efficiency to operations," he said. "When you can aggregate that [data] across those two major media companies, that becomes really interesting."
Agency.com San Francisco media director Allen Stern is similarly conflicted. "I'm disappointed from a media buying perspective, because I like to play them off each other," he said. "Our concern is CPMs increasing. That's the big negative to this whole thing."
"But would that have happened in two years anyway?" he continued. "We definitely don't want to see Yahoo go away. It seems like a marriage that has to be."
While Microsoft has clearly put huge emphasis on building its ad-related offerings over the past two years, there appears to be a consensus that the company isn't as polished as Yahoo when it comes to serving the needs of advertisers. Execs were optimistic on Friday that Yahoo's savvy might rub off on its would-be parent.
Additionally, Microsoft has moved slower than Yahoo in integrating its ad network purchases, and has even lagged on industry standard practices like frequency capping.
"We should've seen more integration by now," Agency.com's Stern said, referring to Microsoft's aQuantive buy. "With BlueLithium and Right Media we saw pretty instant integration on the Yahoo side."
Starcom IP's Marshall is slightly more forgiving.
"Yahoo just has a head start," Marshall said. "I've been really encouraged over the past couple years in how Microsoft has been able to catch up. Yahoo is a little ahead in terms of understanding the language of advertising. The fact that Microsoft [is doing this] shows they understand that advertising is becoming a much bigger part of their business."

Electricity available in parts of Koh Samui, Koh Phangan
- Published: 6 Dec 2012 at 19.02 | Viewed: 9,987 | Comments: 1
- Online news: Tourism
- Writer: Supapong Chaolan
SURAT THANI - The Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA) has on Thursday evening begun feeding electricity into some areas of Koh Samui and Koh Phangan after the two popular tourist destinations were hit by a three-day power blackout.
PEA deputy governor Numchai Lowattanatakul said engineers would take at least 12 hours to repair the damaged high voltage cable in Surat Thani province.
"We've started to feed electricity to some areas [in Samui and Phangan] but it's not 100% yet. The PEA has never encountered this problem before and we would like to apologise to the people there," Mr Numchai said.

I was in Berlin shortly after the Berlin Wall was breached and will never forget the heart-fluttering joy from the sights and sounds of such elation: of babies being passed, and old people being helped, through breaches in the Berlin Wall.
Now, as I see Western enemies of freedom actually celebrating The Iron Lady's death, my mind boggles.

But while you can find a dark bar with a washed up cover band and pricey drinks in any city, there is a special type of venue that the residents of Miami know and love: rooftop lounges. Where else can you kick back on a lounge chair while towering above Ocean Drive, overlooking the beach with 360-degree panorama views, trendy music and -- if you're lucky -- a night complete with stilt walkers and fire breathers. So book your reservation for bottle service with a crew for the night or, if you have a large crowd, reserve a rooftop for a private party and enjoy the views from 10 stories up.

Online master itinerary creator TripIt has released its API, meaning third parties can now link up with the website.
TripIt has made its name in the last three years as a useful way to keep all sectors of a journey, from flight details to car hire, in one place. Users input their various travel arrangements with airlines, hotels and car hire and the site creates a master itinerary.
The release of the API, essentially a key to the site"s software, means third parties such as tour operators can now have a "Add to TripIt" button that sends all the details of a booking to the site which can then incorporate them into an overall master itinerary.
The API release will also allow a travel expense application to import travel activity straight into an expense report. The expense application needs only a single connection to TripIt to access this data and the cost of interfacing with the GDSs and other booking systems is avoided.
Another option now provided by the release is the ability by car rental companies to interface with TripIt when a customer wants to make a car rental booking so that they don"t need to look up their flight details when booking the car - the information is simply retrieved from TripIt.
A spokesman for the company said: "TripIt has always been about bringing together the various parts of a trip into a single, master itinerary. Our email import technology, the Itinerator, helps travellers automatically input information from different sources into a single place.
"Because TripIt is the only place where travellers can store all the components of a trip, we've had companies contacting us since we launched about how they could interface with us."

In biblical reckoning, days begin in the evening (Genesis:1:5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.), when the sun goes down (Joshua:8:29And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide: and as soon as the sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his carcase down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap of stones, that remaineth unto this day.; 2 Chronicles:18:34And the battle increased that day: howbeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Syrians until the even: and about the time of the sun going down he died.; Mark:1:32And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.), and are counted "from evening to evening" (Leviticus:23:32It shall be unto you a sabbath of rest, and ye shall afflict your souls: in the ninth day of the month at even, from even unto even, shall ye celebrate your sabbath.). Thus, all God's festivals begin the sunset just before the dates listed in this table. For example, in 2015 Passover is observed on the evening of April 2, after sundown, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread begins the following evening, April 3. The festivals end at sunset on the dates given.
The plan of salvation as revealed in the Holy Scriptures is pictured in the meaning of these seven annual festivals.
The Passover teaches us that Jesus Christ was sinless and, as the true Lamb of God, gave His life so that the sins of humanity could be forgiven and the death penalty removed (1 Corinthians:5:7Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:; 1 Peter:1:18-20 [18] Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
[19] But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
[20] Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
; Romans:3:25Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;). Passover, although not observed as a Holy Day, is the first festival of the year.
The Feast of Unleavened Bread teaches us that we have been called to reject lawlessness and repent of sin. We are to live by every word of God and according to the teachings of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians:5:8Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.; Matthew:4:4But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.). During this festival, leaven symbolizes sin and, as such, is removed from our homes for the seven days of the festival (1 Corinthians:5:7-8 [7] Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
[8] Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
; Exodus:12:19Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses: for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or born in the land.). By eating unleavened bread we picture living a life of sincerity and truth, free from sin.
The Feast of Pentecost , or firstfruits, teaches us that Jesus Christ came to build His Church. This festival pictures the coming of the Holy Spirit and the establishment of the Church. The firstfruits are those who will be given salvation at the return of Christ. They have been empowered with the Holy Spirit, which creates in each one a new heart and nature to live by the commandments of God (Exodus:23:16And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy labours, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field.; Acts:2:1-4 [1] And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
[2] And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
[3] And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
[4] And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
, 37-39; 5:32; James:1:18Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.).
The Feast of Trumpets teaches us that Jesus Christ will visibly return to the earth at the end of this age. At that time He will resurrect the saints who are no longer living and instantly change those saints who are still alive to immortal spirit beings (Matthew:24:31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.; 1 Corinthians:15:52-53 [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
[53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
; 1 Thessalonians:4:13-17 [13] But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
[14] For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
[15] For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
[16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
[17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
). This festival commemorates the blowing of the trumpets that will precede His return. Seven angels with seven trumpets are described in Revelation 8-10. Christ will return with the blowing of the seventh trumpet (Revelation:11:15And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.).
The Day of Atonement teaches us that Jesus Christ gave His life to atone for the sins of all mankind. It also points to the time when Satan will be bound for 1,000 years (Leviticus:16:29-30 [29] And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:
[30] For on that day shall the priest make an atonement for you, to cleanse you, that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.
, 20-22; Revelation:20:1-3 [1] And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
[2] And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
[3] And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
). This Holy Day pictures our High Priest, Jesus Christ, making atonement for our sins, which allows us to be reconciled to God and enter into the "holiest of all" (Hebrews:9:8-14 [8] The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:
[9] Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;
[10] Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
[11] But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
[12] Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
[13] For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
[14] How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
; 10:19-20). By fasting on this day, we draw closer to God and picture the reconciliation of mankind to God. Christ is essential in this process as our High Priest (Hebrews:4:14-15 [14] Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
[15] For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
; 5:4-5, 10) and as our eternal sacrifice for sin (Hebrews:9:26-28 [26] For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
[27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
[28] So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
The Feast of Tabernacles teaches us that when Jesus Christ returns, a new society will be established with Christ as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Christ, assisted by the resurrected saints, will set up His government on the earth for 1,000 years (Revelation:19:11-16 [11] And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
[12] His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
[13] And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
[14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
[15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
[16] And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
; 20:4; Leviticus:23:39-43 [39] Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.
[40] And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.
[41] And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
[42] Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:
[43] That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
; Matthew:17:1-4 [1] And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
[2] And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
[3] And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
[4] Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
; Hebrews:11:8-9 [8] By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
[9] By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
). Rule under His laws will spread from Jerusalem throughout the world to usher in an unprecedented period of peace and prosperity (Isaiah:2:2-4 [2] And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
[3] And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
[4] And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
; Daniel:2:35Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth., 44; 7:13-14).
The Eighth Day teaches us that Jesus Christ will complete His harvest of humans by raising from the dead and extending salvation to all human beings who have died in the past and have never been given a full opportunity for salvation (Ezekiel:37:1-14 [1] The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
[2] And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
[3] And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
[4] Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
[5] Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
[6] And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
[7] So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
[8] And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
[9] Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
[10] So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
[11] Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
[12] Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
[13] And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
[14] And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD.
; Romans:11:25-27 [25] For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
[26] And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
[27] For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
; Luke:11:31-32 [31] The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
[32] The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
; Revelation:20:11-13 [11] And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
[12] And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
[13] And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
The annual cycle of the celebration of the festivals and Holy Days reminds Christ's disciples that He is working out His plan of extending salvation from sin and death and offering the gift of eternal life in the family of God to all humanity—past, present and future.
