York HotelsThe city of York has a rich history stretching back over the last 2,000 years, and from Vikings to Victorians, the area has played a big part in English history. It's a charming and cultural city which is extremely proud of its heritage, and many of the oldest buildings are very well-preserved and open for tourists to explore. If you're a history buff then just wandering around the narrow streets and balancing on the cobblestones will no doubt make you feel like you've stepped back in time. Things to seeYork Minster stands grandly above the city, with intricate gothic architecture that dates as far back as the 12th century. Inside it's bright and spacious, with high white ceilings and gold accents, and you can wander around and marvel at the stone arches and colorful stained glass windows. The Shambles is a narrow, winding street with timber framed buildings dating back to the 14th century. Many of these buildings used to be butcher shops, with old artifacts still hanging in the windows, but they have mainly been converted into cozy restaurants, and boutique stores. The University of York is spread over many campuses, and one of the oldest is King's Manor which dates back to Tudor times with big iron gates and a dramatic exterior. There are private tours available during quieter periods such as the summer, and you can enjoy sitting in the quadrangle to escape from the bustle of the city. You can learn about the earliest days of the city at the Jorvik Viking Centre which recreates what life was like for these early settlers. Sitting in your own 'time capsule', you'll be taken around a Viking village and can see homes being built, battles being fought, and everyday trades being carried out. Hotels in YorkIf you want to appreciate the history of the area then staying in a boutique York hotel allows you to enjoy the amazing architecture of the city. The grand 3 and 4 star accommodation close to the city has features such as spas, indoor pools, fitness centers, and restaurants. Those on business will also find useful extras such as business centers, conference facilities, and free WiFi. Many guestrooms are individually designed and feature plenty of home comforts, and you can enjoy amenities such as 24 hour room service, Egyptian cotton sheets, LCD televisions, complimentary toiletries, combined shower and tubs, and hair dryers. Where to stayYork's city center is charming and historic, with narrow lanes and cobbled streets full of locally run stores. The city runs along the River Ouse, with plenty of cozy cafés and pubs overlooking the water, and tour boats allowing visitors to get a new perspective on the area. The center also has plenty of shops, with historic streets turned into pedestrianized shopping areas, yet still keeping the architectural beauty intact. With many pubs and bars in a relatively small area, there's a lively nightlife scene, and there are many popular music venues with local and international bands playing throughout the year. How to get to YorkLeeds Bradford International Airport is the closest hub to York, and there are flights arriving from across the UK and Europe on a regular basis. The city is about a 50 minute drive away, and you can pick up a rental car or take a cab to your hotel. You can also take the shuttle to Leeds city center and then take a train on to York. Manchester Airport is about 80 miles away, but has the advantage of a direct rail route which takes under 2 hours and is fast and reliable. York Railway Station is close to the center and has the advantage of being mid-way on the London to Edinburgh line, meaning it's fast and easy to get here from across the UK.

Contract Status: Driver: 2014; Primary Sponsors: 2014
page moved to the #51 HScott Motorsports page
Phoenix Racing renamed HScott Motorsports: Harry Scott Jr. announced that Phoenix Racing has been renamed HScott Motorsports. The rebranding of the team comes five months after Scott purchased the team from James Finch. As part of this announcement, the company unveiled its new branding, including a new logo, website and social media accounts. "I am truly looking forward to the 2014 season," said Scott. "We have two great drivers in place with Justin Allgaier and Bobby Labonte, we've partnered with great sponsors and the team is ready and excited for Daytona. Now that we have launched the HScott Motorsports brand, everything is in place. We can't wait for the season to get started and to get back to racing."
To learn more about the newly rebranded team, its drivers and partners, please visit www.HScottMotorsports.com. You can also keep up with the team via its Facebook page, at Facebook.com/HScottMotorsports, and on Twitter (@TeamHSM51 and @TeamHSM52) and Instagram (TeamHSM51).
Upon purchasing the team last year, Scott pledged to establish a team with a focus on the future and eventually competing for a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship. During this past offseason, HScott Motorsports signed Justin Allgaier to drive the #51 BRANDT Professional Agriculture Chevrolet SS fulltime and Bobby Labonte to drive the #52 Chevrolet SS for a number of races, including the Daytona 500. HScott Motorsports also expanded their relationship with Hendrick Motorsports, which historically has been providing engines to the team. The team also hired NSCS veteran Steve Addington to serve as competition director and the crew chief for the #51 driven by Allgaier. Jimmy Elledge, who served as interim crew chief for Allgaier in 2013, remains with the team and will be crew chief for Labonte's #52 team. James Finch, former owner of Phoenix Racing, has remained a trusted advisor to the team and will be listed as the owner of Labonte's #52 Chevy.(Tuckahoe Strategies)(2-5-2014)
Allgaier named driver of #51 for Phoenix Racing: Phoenix Racing announced that Justin Allgaier will be the driver of the #51 BRANDT Chevy SS during the 2014 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season. Allgaier, who finished fifth in the 2013 Nationwide Series championship points, will be a candidate for the NASCAR Rookie of the Year award. "This is an opportunity of a lifetime and I intend to make the most of it," said Allgaier. "I am very grateful to Harry Scott and BRANDT for having faith in me to compete against the best drivers in the world." BRANDT will be the primary sponsor for the #51 for 21 races during the 2014 season. The agriculture retailer and manufacturer of agricultural specialty products has been active in NASCAR since 2011 and sponsored the #51 for four races in 2013. Joining BRANDT on the car are The National FFA, TradeMark Nitrogen, Nutrients for Life Foundation, Precision Tank and Grigg Brothers. Together, these partners are supporting the only true ag-focused car in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Allgaier, 27, joins Bobby Labonte as teammates at Phoenix Racing. Labonte will drive the #52 for several races in 2014, including the season-opening Daytona 500.(Phoenix Racing)(1-21-2014)

LOOKING for: winter squash/pumpkin stovetop pudding
Have extra winter squash (butternut, futsu and jarradale-all very sweet on their own), and have been searching for some pudding options. Do not want any instant puddings, cool whip, sugar subs, etc additives, only basic ingredients. Goal is for something I can cook on the stove, chill and serve, with or without whipped cream. Does anyone have such a T&T recipe? Thanks.
Pumpkin Pudding
3 cups canned or fresh cooked Pumpkin.
3 cups Apple Juice.
1/2 cup Cornstarch.
2 teaspoon ground Cinnamon.
1 teaspoon ground Ginger.
1/2 teaspoon ground Cloves.
On stove top:
Place in a 2-3 quart lined or glass pot the on the burner over low to medium heat the Apple Juice and Cornstarch, and mix until smooth. Stir in the Pumpkin, Cinnamon, Ginger and Cloves. Continue to stir the pudding until thick and creamy. Make sure the pudding does not boil or stick to the bottom of the pot. Lower heat if necessary.
Pour the pudding into serving cups or dished or into a bulk storage container, and place in the refrigerator until the pudding gels (about 3 hours).
I have not made this but it sounds interesting.

The Ramanathapuram Police have arrested three persons while a search is on for another person for allegedly attempting to murder a drug peddler here on Sunday. According to the police, the victim, Gundu Manikandan alias Manikandan (39) of Ammankulam Yerimedu was a drug peddler.
"He has been imprisoned four times. This year, he was arrested twice. After serving a three-month imprisonment he was released last month. It is learnt that Manikandan was supplying marijuana to three of the attackers in the past," the police said.
Following his release, they approached him for drugs. "But he did not give them, fearing that they might trap him. He also had a fight with them on Saturday over the issue," they said.
According to Manikandan, he was walking on the road on Sunday when the accused attacked him and tried to stab him. He suffered a cut injury on his hand when he tried to stop them.
The police arrested Iruthayaraj (41), Rajan (34) and Sathish Kumar (34) and are on the lookout for Sridhar. The victim is being treated at the Coimbatore Medical College Hospital.

Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Abhishek Khanolkar What is Oracle Fusion? • "Oracle Fusion Middleware is a "preintegrated" portfolio of customer- proven software that spans from portals and process managers to application infrastructure, developer tools, and business intelligence". • In short it is a complete stack of related middleware technologies. Components of Fusion • There are about 17 different components. • In this activity I worked with SOA Suite. • SOA suite has the Oracle AS (Application Server), ESB, business rule engine, Oracle BPEL Process Manager, Oracle Web Service Manager. Enterprise Computing. • Enterprise computing means computing in the GRID environment or where applications run on many servers. • Enterprise Computing is made possible by the use of middleware technology. • Middleware's such as Oracle Fusion, BEA, IBM MQ and Tibco. Technologies in Fusion: • EJB (Enterprise Java beans). • Types of EJB • MDB (Message Driven Bean), Entity Bean and Session bean. • JMS (Java Messaging Service). • Web Service (most import part) Importance of EJB • EJB brings about the asynchronous communication. • It automate the transaction management and reduce the code size. • Provides security. • Provides the remote access using the RMI and CORBA. Web Services • Web Service bring about the application to application interaction. • It has a receiver and sender of SOAP messages. • SOAP is a platform neutral XML based protocol • Web Service send SOAP message that are then used by the applcations. JMS • JMS or Java Messaging Service is a standard messaging system. • JMS has 2 messaging models- the queue based model and topic based model. • The SOAP messages in the web Service are sent over JMS destinations (queue or topic). Installation of Fusion SOA suite -Oracle AS, business rules and ESB, BPEL manger and web Service manager. Installation is easy- open the file and run the installer. The environment variables are set automatically. Environment Variables • To check the environment variables all you need to do is try running the SQL plus from the command line and then run a .sql file to execute the SQL script. • Demo of Oracle Fusion. Conclusion: • Oracle Fusion is Beta tested with the Oracle partners. • Supposed to be launched in 2008. • The version will be Fusion 11g. • JDeveloper make the developing an deploying task very easy. • All the standards such as EJB 3.0 (latest) are supported. Conclusion • Other standards such as JSR188 for web Services and JMS for messaging models are supported. • Oracle says that there will be no vendor lock in. • All this is bound to make Oracle Fusion a big success with existing Oracle Customers.

'I want to know them all': Photographer behind haunting 9/11 picture is trying to put names to all the faces in his image
- Patrick Witty's photo of people staring up as the South Tower began to crumble has been republished dozens of times worldwide
- He's now met two of his subjects, including Benjamin Tabile, but he's posted his image on social media to meet more of them
A photographer whose unforgettable image of a crowd of people watching in horror as the World Trade Center burned is trying to locate his subjects.
Patrick Witty was on the scene in Manhattan's Financial District 12 years ago and the image he caught has since been published dozens of times worldwide.
Since starting his quest on September 11 last year, Witty has identified two of the people in his iconic photo, but he's nowhere near finished.
Engaging: Twelve years later, Patrick Witty, the man who snapped this iconic photo of horrified onlookers in Lower Manhattan on September 11, 2001, wants to meet his subjects
'I want to know them all,' Witty wrote on Time.com's Lightbox blog.
The photographer is now the international photo editor for Time magazine. On September 11, 2001, he was a freelance photographer living in Manhattan's Lower East Side.
'I heard screaming on the roof of my building, and went up and saw the World Trade Center on fire,' Witty told Yahoo News. 'When the second plane hit, I grabbed my camera gear and went down there.'
Witty stayed and took photos of the ash-covered aftermath until the police kicked him out.
Found: Benjamin Tabile is pictured here with unidentified family. He is one of the two subjects of Witty's photo who've come forward since the photographer began searching for names to put with the faces
What they saw: Witty's subjects were looking up just as the South Tower began to collapse
But it is just one of his pictures that has become a part of the nation's collective consciousness, a photo he calls 'a cross-section of New Yorkers, united in terror, standing at Park Row and Beekman Street in lower Manhattan.'
Last year, Witty posted his photo on Facebook and Twitter in the hopes of contacting each and every person he captured on film that day.
'After it was shared more than 10,000 times,' he said. 'I now know two of them.'
One of those people is Benjamin Tabile.
Witty was contacted by Tabile's son Edward after he posted his photo on September 11 last year.
Tabile is the man at the center of the photograph wearing glasses. He looks more shocked than the others, and with good reason.
He was on his way to the World Trade Center that day for a job interview, but was running late.
'As I walked out of the subway, I saw the building on fire and didn't know why,' he told Time. 'I was in complete shock. I would have been in that building while the planes hit.'
Witty believes there are other stories like that contained in his photo and he wants to hear them.
He urges anyone who recognizes someone in the photo to reach him at firstname.lastname@example.com. He's also on Twitter @patrickwitty.

Called by the framework when the OLE item transitions from the in-place active state (activeState) to the loaded state, meaning that it is deactivated after an in-place activation.
Note that this function is called to indicate that the OLE item is closed, not that its user interface has been removed from the container application. When that happens, the OnDeactivateUI member function is called.
The default implementation calls the OnChange member function with OLE_CHANGEDSTATE as a parameter. Override this function to perform custom processing when an in-place active item is deactivated. For example, if you support the undo command in your container application, you can override this function to discard the undo state, indicating that the last operation performed on the OLE item cannot be undone once the item is deactivated.

AB 1469 CALSTRS Funding Plan Adopted
Designed to address the system's deficit funding, the new plan took effect July 1, 2014, and it provides for a sustainable long-term future course funded through gradual increases in contributions by members, employers and the state.
Read a CALSTRS overview of AB1469 provisions
Annual Benefit Adjustment. AB 1469 provides that the previously existing 2% Annual Benefit Adjustment will be guaranteed for members who retire after January 1, 2014. This guarantee serves as a constitutionally mandated "comparable offsetting advantage" in exchange for the increased member contributions required under the new law. For those who retired prior to January 1, 2014, no change will occur – the legislature may reduce or eliminate the annual increase in response to economic conditions. Nevertheless, no suggestions to adjust this benefit have been made, nor has this benefit been reduced or eliminated in the past.

The Adventures of G and M
Chapter 3
She woke up with the two of them clinging to her, making her blush. Malkai was one thing- his friend was another. She shook Malkai awake, and he looked at her, pointing to the other one, "His hands are on my butt- please do something…" She begged, and Malkai looked over her side, before leaning over, and shoving his friend off the bed, and they hit the floor with a loud thud, before Malkai curled up, being too tall for her bed. He nibbled on her neck and she moaned softly, "Malik…" She whimpered. They had shared names, but she still liked calling him Malik. He fell back asleep, his friend waking up, and grabbed her arm, pulling her out of her bed. She yelped in pain, and Malkai was on his feet. The two growled and snarled at one another, before Malkai's friend set her down, and she waddled over to Malkai. Malkai's friend left the room, and Malkai gently pushed her towards the shower, and she went into the bathroom and showered. She came out in a bath robe; Malkai was in her closet, glancing at her, and going back to what he was doing.
"What's going on, Malik?" She asked, and he offered her a shawl and an outfit he had picked out for her. She took it and shut the door, pulling on her panties, looking at Malkai, "Can you help me with my bra, Malik?" She asked, afraid of using any affectionate terms, as he helped her with her bra. He wasn't hers- they weren't married. She knew nothing about him, and he knew nothing about her. She pulled on the shirt he had picked out for her, and he helped with her pants. She knew that there was no way he could be really hers. He didn't belong here, and where ever he lived, she probably didn't belong there. He would most likely leave after the baby was born, and she'd be alone once more. He zipped up her boots for her, helping her to her feet, and left the room. She took only a few things, and put the shawl on, and exited her room, Malkai waiting for her, making her wonder what was going on. He had picked out her outfit- that meant something was up.
His friend was no longer in the house, but Malkai was waiting for her, offering her his hand, and turned his head towards the door, before looking back at her. She rubbed her stomach, "I'd love to go for a walk- but I'm pregnant, so I can't go too far." He let her hand go, and went outside, before coming back in, looking at his hands, and putting them a few inches apart, as if measuring the size of something- or distance. "Oh, so its close? Ok, that's fine I guess. As long as it doesn't hurt the baby…" She said, and he helped her outside, and she gasped a metal ship on the front lawn- just like the one she had found when she had first met Malkai. She pulled back, making him stop, and look back at her, as she shook her head. "I'm not going on that." She said, pulling her hand away from his, frowning, and he tilted his head, confused. "I'm sorry, but I don't belong where you do."
His friend growled something, and Malkai paid him no attention, leaning down, taking her hands in his, nuzzling her hair, before walking backwards, attempting to take her with him once more- but she refused him once more, her hands on her stomach, shaking her head. "No. I'm staying here." She turned to go back into the house, but he picked her up, and carried her aboard the ship, as she hollered her protests, "Malik! MALKAI, PUT ME DOWN!" He set her down on a soft bed, as the back part of the ship closed, locking them in, and his friend worked on something. Flashing digital-looking symbols were everywhere- she didn't understand any of them, and Malkai lay next to her, scary-looking weapons on a large cabinet on the other side of the small room, which was mostly taken up by the bed. Malkai held her, as the ship lifted off the ground, and she clung to him tightly.
Malkai's POV
"ai…Malkai." I woke up to Ah'Jil calling my name, "Malkai, we're on our way home- maybe your mate is hungry- she doesn't look too good…" I looked at Jovana, who looked pale. I listened for her heart- such a faint pulse. "What's wrong?"
"The oxygen mask- quickly, get it now!" He got it, and I put the mask over her mouth and nose.
'ksh, hah' She opened her eyes, taking a deep breath of the oxygen, and looking at me. I was pleased to know she just needed oxygen- her people here trained for years to go into space and I hope the baby wouldn't be injured by this or hurt. She hardly breathed- to save oxygen. I made sure to get as many I oxygen tanks as I could from the nearby village, with Ah'Jil's help- but eventually, she would have to adjust to the air of our home planet. Jovana closed her eyes, a hint of something I couldn't put my finger on, in her eyes, before she closed them. "Do you have any spare parts, here, Ah'Jil?"
"I have a radio and some other stuff in the back room." I got up and got to work. A radio- it could work.
She laid there, her stomach growling, making her open her eyes, seeing Ah'Jil. He had food- Malkai, was no where in sight, and she had an oxygen mask on. Ah'Jil set the food down on the floor for her, next to the bed, so it was within reach, and went back to piloting. She leaned over the edge of the bed and found he had brought her a sandwich- and some weird substance. She frowned, but ate it anyway, feeling like she was going to heave it all up after she did. Jovana laid back and relaxed, Malkai came into the room- even when they all looked the same, and somehow- she could tell Malkai apart. She reached up and he took her offered hand in one of his. Malkai offered her something- a pill? "What's this for?" She asked, and he produced another one, taking off his mask, and he tossed it in his mouth and swallowed it down, "You want me to eat it?" He nodded, and she smiled uneasily, "O…Ok." She said, and hesitantly popped it in her mouth and swallowed it down.
"Can you hear me?" A deep and husky voice asked, and she looked up, wondering who had said that. Who did that sexy voice belong to?
"Y-Yes…" She answered hesitantly, and Malkai looked at her,
"That's great." It was Malkai who was speaking! She reached up and Malkai took her hand, putting it against his cheek. "Your name-tell it to me once more, now that I know what you're saying."
"Jovana." She said, and he closed his eyes,
"Mmn…I love your voice." She laughed, "Your laugh, too. I am Malkai." She blushed, and Ah'Jil peeped on the small love scene,
"I like your voice too," She said, kissing his forehead, and he put her hands in his dreadlocks,
"Do that thing you do when I misbehave- I like that too." He said, and she grabbed on to his dreadlocks and shook his head from side to side, and he purred, "Just like that." She laughed and they hugged, cuddling up on the bed, and Ah'Jil went back to piloting, grumbling to himself. "We're going to arrive shortly-"
"Where are we going?" She asked, and he licked her neck.
"My home planet." He said, "I want you to live with me on my planet…" He put his hand on her stomach, rubbing gently, "I want all three of us to live there, Jovana." She frowned faintly, and closed her eyes, enjoying his cold embrace. "You'll love it- there are flowers bigger than a man there. They're large and colorful- different hues of blues and purples and reds." Malkai told her, painting her a vivid picture of the place he grew up and left. "In my home planet, I will build our home, and we will live there with our family, were only we can hear each other's voices."
"Wait, only I can hear you?" She asked him, and Malkai chuckled.
"Well, I am the only one who can hear and understand you- I will speak a different language to my people and to them, you speak a language they don't understand." Ah'Jil snarled at Malkai to stop being so weird and Malkai told him to shut up, Jovana amazed,
"I didn't understand any of that…"
"Yes." He said, and she used his arm and chest as a pillow, as he rubbed her stomach gently, lulling her to sleep-and he changed her empty oxygen tank for a full one. Malkai refused to leave her side. When she woke up, he asked her simple things- her favorite color, what family she had, had she had any lovers before him. She relaxed and listened to him as he told her of his planet- how beautiful it was, and his own family members. She ran her hands through his dreadlocks, pulling on them every so often. He loved that. She listened to his comments- how he loved the way she rocked her hips when she got out of her clothes, how she cooked meat for him every night. Malkai nibbled on her finger tips, her palm, and her ankle- anywhere on her that was covered and in range when he had an urge to nip on something. She hummed to him and Malkai would sing some song of his people softly, and at one point, they both fell asleep- then Ah'Jil woke Malkai up for some stupid shit, and she woke up as a result of Malkai waking. Malkai left the room and Ah'Jil gave a high-pitched shriek, before Malkai came back and lay next to her.
"Was I worth it?" Malkai asked her and she raised an eyebrow, confused. "The intercourse…"
"OH!" She gasped, realizing what he was talking about and blushed, looking away slightly, "Y…Yeah…" Malkai fumbled with the button on her pants, and she blushed.
"I cannot break the defense on your pants." He growled and she blushed harder- they he cut the button off. He nibbled on her panty line, pulling off her pants and began to remove her panties when she pushed him away, "Hm?"
"W-What about your friend?" She squeaked and Malkai got up, going over to Ah'Jil, grabbing him by the back of the throat as she covered up.
"I'm going to please my mate. If you interrupt, I'll kill you and throw your body to your dogs." Malkai warned him, and Ah'Jil shivered. Malkai returned to her and closed the door, covering up the glass with an extra blanket. He returned back to her and she blushed, Malkai sliding a hand under the blanket and out of her hand, gently pulling it away, Jovana blushing. He rubbed her stomach gently, laying his head on her swollen abdomen, listening to the sounds of his offspring in her stomach. They child kicked and hit Malkai right in the face, and Jovana blinking in surprise, as Malkai pulled back, "He's strong." Malkai commented and he touched her cheek, "You'll be a fantastic mother, Jovana." He told her and she smiled, before gasping in surprise as Malkai went back to nibbling on her hip line and pulled down her underwear, licking her lip and she shivered. "Don't be afraid of me," Malkai told her, and she looked at him, "Have I not been gentle before?"
"You have…" She agreed softly, "W-What if my water breaks?"
"I'm not going to EAT our CHILD, thank you." Malkai said and she laughed at her own silliness, "I'm hungry and when we get there, there will be little to no privacy for us, I'm sure. Your tenseness is bad for the baby- just relax and enjoy it." She smiled and nodded, laying back, and he licked her lips before nipping them and she jolted,
"P-Please don't bite me- it hurts…" She murmured and Malkai nodded, getting back to pleasuring her, taking care to be as gentle as possible. The heat in the room raised but Malkai ignored it and she pulled on his dreadlocks, making him purr as he fingered her. When she did orgasm, he made sure that not a single drop got on the sheets, and Ah'Jil pounded on the door, Jovana flinching away from Malkai's touch. "I-I thought you made sure that your friend wouldn't interrupt!" She whimpered, flinching as Ah'Jil slammed on the door once more and Malkai covered her up, licking his fingers,
"Stay covered up." Malkai warned and she did, pulling her panties back on, and her pants, Malkai opening the door and stepping out, making sure Ah'Jil didn't get in. "Don't give me your shit, get back to driving!" Malkai snarled and Ah'Jil snapped something back, "I'll make sure your life is worse than the Black Warrior can give if you harm or even TOUCH my mate in anyway, Ah'Jil!" Ah'Jil tried to get past him and to her and she stayed back, but Malkai shoved him off and the door shut. After a while, Malkai returned and lay next to Jovana as if nothing had happened. "We'll arrive soon."
"Malkai, what just happened?"
"Oh, nothing, he just got a little- excited- off your hormones is all." Malkai answered, hugging her close and nibbled absently on her ear.
The Ship landed and everything shook when it did, Ah'Jil returning and Jovana snuggling up to a Sleeping Malkai, shaving him away. Ah'Jil told him something and a door opened and he vanished. Malkai growled, "Yeah, you can wait a couple minutes." Malkai waved him off and hugged Jovana.
"A…Are we here?"
"Yes, but we can just wait a minute or two-" she got up and hesitantly exited the room and Malkai groaned, "-or not." Malkai got up and Jovana quickly went back into the room, blushing.
"It's like there are duplicated of you and your friend everywhere!" She said softly, and Malkai chuckled. He exited the ship and she reluctantly followed him closely and he stopped, Ah'Jil telling all of them he found Malkai- and there were hundreds of thousands of other Predators similar to Malkai. They were quiet and tried to get a peek of Jovana before she came out. Malkai offered her his hand and she took it, letting him gently held her down out of the ship, her other hand on her stomach. She came to stand next to Malkai and they just stood there for a moment- but already her legs hurt so much. Some of the Predators had human skulls handing from theirs waists, the women were taller and more buff than the men.
It was when she saw the Human skull her stomach churned. He had played her! That was a human skull, so they probably took humans like her on a regular basis and kill them. She had been PLAYED! Malkai took her hand and held it and she pulled her hand back, making him look at her questioningly, "You played me!" She snarled with anger and sadness. "You don't love me! You don't even like e, probably. I'm just a play thing for you!"
"What are you talking about!" Malkai asked, and she went back into the ship. "If I was 'playing', which I'm not, then why are you pregnant with me child and why did I bring you here?" He asked her and she blinked, and reluctantly went back to his side, one of the others pointed to her and snorted/ chuckled, saying something. Malkai went over and punched him out, the others catching him and looking at Malkai. "Got anything else to say about her?" The Predator go to his feet and shook his head. "Good." There was a screech and a large, hideous monster was running at Malkai and herself. It jumped at them.
Spooked by this bold move, Jovana punched the creature in the jaw, and sent it flying, before losing her balance, and falling back onto her ass. Malkai helped her up and she frowned, hands on her stomach watching the mutant as it slowly got back up, whimpered, its tail between its legs, and it limped sideways, circling around before hastily limping away. "Honey that was my DOG you just attacked." She looked at Malkai, "That's a predator hound, my dear; they're our pets, not vicious attackers."
"I'm so sorry!" She sobbed, and Malkai patted her on the head, and she blushed faintly,
"It's alright; he was a bad dog anyways." The other predators stared at her in slight shock, and she hid behind Malkai slightly. Another predator said something, and Malkai looked over at a bigger predator- a female- as she attempted to approach her, and got between them. They said something and he snorted. "Fine." The bigger predator gently took Jovana's hand and led her away, Malkai at her heels, keeping the other predators at bay as they went to touch her.

On the road home
Picked up the car at our friends, the Meadors. Hitting the road for Atlanta. Wow, it's been a whirlwind expedition! Feels like we've been gone for months. Can't believe how much we've seen and all the places that we've been in the last 26 days. I will certainly view so many of the places we've visited with a different set of eyes and opinions ...
Folks, We Have A Winner
... disappointed faces. I instantly met a group of 4 ladies. 2 sisters (Lisa and Monique) and their friend (Thres), all from Canada, and one Aussie (Cass). I went straight for a cold beer before boarding the boat, but I could tell they were going to be a fun clique to go to sea with for a couple of nights. Was I right as ever. I'm honored to have met all of them. We all boarded the boat and quickly became friends- along with Hattie (or Shatty...or Harriet when she's a CEO) from England. ...
World of coca-cola
... me cry. I was really in the right mood for the rest of the day. It was also great. The. The fault of the secret formula which was next. It gave us the history of coke and tempted us with a massive vault with the secret of coke. Next we went through the mile stones of refreshment which gave us a better idea of the history behind coke. We saw the olympic flames and pin up coke pics which was really great. We got a look at the bottle works which showed how it was all bottled up. ...
Work Hard, Play Hard
... learned that CNN owns a Spanish-only-channel called CNN en Espa�ol. I really, like their logo – so simple, yet such a strong recall to the original logo. CNN en Espa�ol started operating in 1997 and covers the US and Latin America.
After this amazing tour, we had delicious appetizers at Dantanna's in Buckhead, which apparently is a very well-off area in Atlanta. Later we went for a drink at Taco Mac, which is a sports bar serving ...
Time to leave Cancun
... I miss Cancun already... After arriving in Atlanta and meeting up with Meghan, another of Lisa's friends, we headed to the world of Coca-Cola after being advised to go. It was ok, pretty much like a coca cola museum with loads of stuff to see. The best part was probably the tasting bit, there were about 80 different coca cola products on tap to taste at your leisure. We then got ...

48 Go Conquer
Anyone else sign up for this?? They say you have to be between 18-22 to sign up but as far as I know you can still do it if you're older as it's discrimination against age if they don't let you. For those who don't know, basically you pay 10 a month and you get free texts and calls to any network, well 5000 texts and 3000 minutes. You get a certain amount of free time to landlines as well but not nearly as much. I signed up the other day and they're sending the sim card out to me atm. From what I've heard it's good, and there's no real coverage problems. It's done by O2 btw and also it's like an extra 2 a week for unlimited internet usage (up until a certain date, I think).

Re: 48 Go Conquer
Lot of my mates have signed up nd are happy with it.
Sun,15th. Apr'12, 10:54 PM #3
It's not unlimited internet use per week, but reasonable.
It's run by Telefonica, same crowd who own O2, but O2 & 48 separate companies, just the same parent company.
There is a fair bit of discussion around the legality of the age restriction, fair few threads on boards.ie about it at least. Doubt it's clear cut, plenty of offers which apply to certain ages only.

No one said it's owned by o2
It was said that o2s parent company own both o2 and 48, but they are separate companies.
I have a good few friends on the network. They've had no problems thus far

Ya I'm on this, no complaints so far, very happy with it. I'm 29 btw so the age restriction is just them marketing to their target audience, just lie about your age when applying.

Got my sim card today.
1 question; If I top up by a tenner, get my 30 days (Or whatever it is) free texts and calls and then after the 30 days are up wait until the €10 credit is used up, if a few days have passed after the 30 and you top up by €10 again, that's acceptable yes? Hope you understand what I mean

Washington, D.C. and Silicon Valley are separated by 3,000 miles and vastly different cultures. But if the Valley itself and, more broadly, the U.S. economy are to thrive, then Washington and Silicon Valley need to appreciate each other more than they currently do. From my perch inside the Beltway, I'd like to offer some words of advice for the Valley.
First, I salute your entrepreneurial and organic spirit. It has helped transform the world and create jobs and wealth. But while Washington doesn't always understand what Silicon Valley does or needs, you need to abandon the myth that Washington had nothing to do with your creation.
Remember: the Internet emerged from the Defense Department's Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA). Oracle got started doing work for the Central Intelligence Agency and Intel sold much of its early output to the Pentagon. Serge

We have always been very concious of production standards, time in motion and scheduling timelines, but...See more recently took a step further, and redesigned our lab to use Lean Manufacturing Practices. We have attempted to break things down into syncronized movements, limited numbers of tools and reducing work in progress. Of course there are all kinds of books on the subject, so it's pointless to try and cover it here, but so far, we have seen improvements in quality and consistency, more on-time delivery and fewer errors.

Great Hotel, Good location, Superb ServicePosted Jan 8, 2012
Pros: Service and charming layout of hotel
Cons: ants in the bathroom, but minor. Busy and loud street noise so ask for a room away from Florida street if you are a light sleeper.
Location: Busy street, but also buzzy with lots of restaurant and bar options.
The young receptionist helped me order a airport shuttle that picked me up just outside of the hotel for 80 Rand instead of the 250 to 300 rand via taxi. She was very persistent and courteous. I also was delighted after a very good breakfast to find out that it was included in my rate. I strongly recommend the Quarters Hotel. The place is first rate, charming and is at the start of a very buzzy street.

Great hotel, but a bit "out of the way"Posted Jun 7, 2011
Great hotel staff - always willing to help. Hotel is on Florida road, walking distance from some very good restaurants. But outside of Florida road, neighborhood is not safe to walk, so you are confined to the immediate area or you take taxis everywhere you wish to go. Hotel does not have heating, so winter months can be cold - staff did find a space heater for me, so this helped and was most appreciated. Breakfast is very good.

New Water Service
We've done the fun parts of our old house; painting, refinishing floors, new kitchen. Now it's time to install new water service from the street to the house. We still have the old galvanized steel from 1922 running into the basement and if we had less water volume we'd be hauling it from the creek in buckets. If I'm watering the garden, the toilets don't refill.
Soooo, time to do it. My question: the house has had its supply pipes (piping from the basement through the walls to the kitchen and bathrooms) replaced with copper sometime in the past. The waste pipes are still original. Are we going to have any problem with the old waste pipes when we finally have not only water pressure (which we have now) but some volume as well?
Waste water is not under pressure so additional volume shouldn't add stress to the system unless there are undetected partial clogs in the sink tub and shower lines before they reach the main waste stacks. The stacks shouldn't be an issue since when you flush a toilet the volume will be same as it was before.
The new copper line to the street was laid yesterday. If anyone in the Rochester NY area is looking for a recommendation, contact me through GW. These guys were on-time, neat, polite and competent.
Aaaaand, now we have water!!! Billl, you were right about those slow drains (one slow drain anyway) but I don't care! We finally can use the third floor shower, we can flush a toilet while the washing machine is filling. This is wonderful. I wish we hadn't waited so long!

But I hadn't been in the restaurant car long before a party started which consisted (as I later established from one of the few who did speak English) of ancient Iranian folk songs with one lad playing his violin, another a drum and lots of clapping, singing along and even dancing. They hadn't been out of the country 24 hours and the old nostalgia was ...

The Main Presentation: "National Security Alert"
The first thing you should do upon visiting this site is watch National Security Alert, an 81 minute video presenting conclusive evidence that the plane seen flying low over Arlington on 9/11 did not in fact hit Pentagon, and was even seen flying away by multiple eyewitnesses, thus proving a "false flag" operation with unbelievably dire implications.
You can also download a free copy of the video if you'd like. That section also contains instructions on how to purchase or your own burn DVD copies, which can be given to friends, family, media figures, law enforcement, and your elected representatives.
Additional Evidence
There is much, much more evidence which we could not include in National Security Alert due to time constraints. Please follow the links below to view this evidence.
Official Interviews - Many of the north side approach witnesses presented are on record placing the plane on the same north side approach flight path during official interviews conducted only weeks after the event. This eliminates the notion that they are remembering inaccurately due to faded memory. In this section, you can read and listen to these official interviews.
Supplemental Videos - In the two and a half years prior to the June 2009 release of National Security Alert, we released numerous full length video presentations and video shorts. These videos contain extended versions of the interviews seen in National Security Alert, as well as interviews with other witnesses who were not included in that presentation. They also include volumes of other information supporting the undeniable conclusion that the plane did not hit the Pentagon, and proving that the "official" (government-endorsed) account of what happened in Arlington that day is false on many other levels.
Research Forum - Our research forum contains lots of additional research and analysis. Please note that -- although we are no longer accepting new registrations -- we did for years allow other researchers and concerned citizens to sign up and post, so we do not always endorse everything that is posted. However, some of the members have contributed some great research that has even in some cases made its way into our presentations.
