In undisturbed environments, Sahelian rodent population dynamics are determined by climatic (Hubert & Adam, 1985) and edaphic factors (Hubert, Leprun & Poulet, 1977). Demographic change is therefore relatively predictable (Hubert, 1982; Sicard, Diarra & Cooper, 1999). Such situations are rare in the Sahel, notably, because of the high incidence of natural or anthropic disturbances. The impact of such disturbances on rodent population dynamics has been confirmed by various workers (Duplantier, 1998; Granjon et al., 2005; Papillon, Godron & Delattre, 2006). However, to develop rodent control strategies, allowance must be made for the effects of disturbances on the spatial distribution of rodent communities in different habitats and these effects must be measured in the short and medium term.
This study investigates spatial distribution variations of a rodent community over four seasons (wet and dry) following burning and correlates these with population variations (analysed and described elsewhere; Papillon et al., 2006).
Materials and methods
The study site (Fig. 1), climate and rodent population dynamics have been described in detail elsewhere (Papillon et al., 2006). Nine landscape elements (LE) were identified and classified on the basis of three descriptors: (i) vegetation, defined by the dominant forest species, whether mixed or not with crops; (ii) soil typology and rooting conditions: pedo 1 – with mottled ferruginous, more or less hydromorphic concretions and good rooting conditions; pedo 2 – with mottled, lessivated of tropical ferruginous soil and moderate rooting conditions; pedo 3 – calco-alkaline granite and poor rooting conditions and (iii) the presence of termite mounds.
About half of the area was pedo 1 type and was used for crops [Sorghum bicolour and Penissetum glaucum on Parkia biglobosa and crops (PBC) an Acacia albida (AAC) facies] or was unburnt [Acacia nilotica (ANA) or PBC].
The occurrence of termitaries for each LE was evaluated with a chi-squared test. Overall, termitaries were distributed evenly over type 1 and 2 soils (chi-squared nonsignificant) but were under-represented on type 3 soils (chi-squared highly significant: 8.33 < 0.005).
The affinity between a rodent species and each LE was evaluated by the corrected frequency of each species in each LE and estimated by the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of relative frequency of capture per LE to the relative frequency of each LE (Godron, 1968, 2005; Daget & Godron, 1982).
Figure 2 illustrates the seasonal affinities of each species: Taterillus gracilis was regularly present on the site whatever the season. It was the first species to colonize the site after burning (Wl) and displayed an immediate positive affinity for ANT and grass covered buffer zone (PAS) that lasted through all seasons. The species also regularly frequented Acacia radiana (ARA) and ANA in Wl and Parkinsonia aculeata (PAC) in D2. During colonization (Wl), the preferred LE were associated with habitats featuring Acacia: ARA, ANT and ANA. At this period, the mostly adult T. gracilis population clustered on the soils that were best for digging. Over the following seasons (Dl, W2 and D2), their distribution became more even.
Nannomys sp. colonized the site from Wl and concentrated mostly in a grass-and shrub-rich corridor (PAS). Nannomys sp. deserted the site during Dl but recolonized it rapidly and massively during W2. This demographic explosion involved colonization of all LE and a very even distribution.
Tatera guineae colonized remained chronically low during the two wet seasons and fell even further during the two dry seasons. Spatial distribution was strongly clustered with Prosopis, Parkinsonia and ANA.
Mastomys erythroleucus did not colonize the plot until D1. Thereafter it spread rapidly throughout the LE (except for PBC), with a very strong affinity for PAS. It largely abandoned the plot during W2, but recolonized it during D2 preferentially repopulating PAS and ARA.
A single LE (PAS) was particularly attractive to rodents. By contrast, three LE were little frequented: AAC, PBC and PAC.
Figure 3 illustrates the apparently antagonistic relations identified among species. There are nine of them. Four concern T. gracilis, two of which are versus T. guineae, one versus M. erythroleucus and one versus Nannomys sp. Three 'antagonistic' relations concern T. guineae; all three versus T. gracilis. Lastly, two antagonistic relations concern M. erythroleucus versus Nannomys sp. and Nannomys sp. versus T. guineae.
Figure 4 shows the three clearest examples of potentially competitive relations for a given LE. They involve PAS, PAC and ANA. Potential competition is also expressed for ARA and PJM, respectively between T. gracilis (Wl) and M. erythroleucus (D2) and between Nannomys sp. (D2) and T. guineae (W1-W2).
After burning (Wl), spatial behaviour seemed selective – the presence of one species in one LE seemed to exclude others – and the number of apparently antagonistic relations was highest during this season. The succession of species over time favoured the progressive installation of populations and allowed mechanisms leading to highly selective spatial occupation, to be put in place.
With Dl, T. gracilis and M. erythroleucus developed a loose spatial behaviour with no antagonistic relations. This can be explained by M. erythroleucus arriving late on parcels occupied for several months by T. gracilis. Despite its greater reproductive capacities, the M. erythroleucus population was less competitive. Mechanisms dissuading the occupation of its preferred LE could not therefore have been fully in place.
During W2 and in the absence of M. erythroleucus, there was a resumption of selective behaviour among T. gracilis and T. guineae (as in Wl), associated with antagonistic relations between both species. Nannomys sp. alone occupied all LE with no antagonistic relations. Its behavioural and morphological characteristics probably facilitate its being maintained in the LE where it comes least into confrontation with M. erythroleucus.
With D2, M. erythroleucus was already present and actively breeding. It rapidly became dominant and developed selective spatial behaviour on the most favourable LE.
This process is accompanied by antagonistic relations. The prolific character of M. erythroleucus supposedly explains why its population increases earlier and more swiftly. It becomes dominant only when colonization coincides with its dispersion phases.
Fox (1982) and Fox, Taylor & Thompson (2003) show how the succession of rodent species after burning matches the plant stages favourable to them. They emphasize, although, that this is not a sufficient cause to explain colonization by these species. Other criteria such as the pattern of disturbance which must be analysed with the methods developed in landscape ecology, the mobility phase of each species and selective and aggregative occupation of LE are also decisive. By taking all these criteria into account we can better understand the colonizing mechanism affecting both outbreak risks and local biodiversity.

Growth capital investor Beringea's portfolio company Abzena Plc, previously known as Polytherics, has raised GBP20 million by way of a placing of 25 million new ordinary shares at 80 pence per share.
The firm's ordinary shares have been admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange.
Some 3.4 million existing ordinary shares are also being sold at the placing price.
Beringea first invested in Polytherics through ProVen Growth and Income (PGI) and ProVen Health (now merged with PGI) in September 2011.
The company's entire issued share capital of 97.4 million ordinary shares (as enlarged by the placing of new ordinary shares) was admitted to trading on AIM on 10 July 2014 under the ticker ABZA . At the placing price, the market capitalisation of Abzena on Admission was approximately GBP80 million and the shares held by PGI were worth GBP3.07m, a multiple of 2.4x the cost of the investment.
Dr Stephane Mery, partner at Beringea, says: "This placing will help to secure the company's position as a leader in the biopharmaceutical industry. We are delighted to have been involved in the development and growth of Abzena."
John Burt, CEO of Abzena, says: "The proceeds from the placing and our admission to AIM mark important milestones in Abzena's development and provides a platform for us to grow our existing business and expand our offering as we enable our customers and partners to translate research into better biopharmaceutical products that benefit patients.
"Abzena combines a growing, high-margin service business with the potential for substantial longer term revenue streams from licences to our proprietary technologies."

Peterson, Traynor get through wet Derby as winners
The compact car division may dominate in this day and age of the Ellsworth Funster Pierce County Fair Demolition Derby.
There were nearly 30 compacts competing in the 42nd annual event compared to only nine stock cars. One one feature was held for the stocks compared to three for the compacts.
But the stock cars can still put on a show and did so to a standing ovation by the large crowd that filled the new grandstand at the Pierce County Fairgrounds in Ellsworth.

Fashion's Best-Guarded Secret, The Assistant, Emerges
By RUTH LA FERLA
Published: December 15, 1998
In the din of applause that followed Bill Blass's runway show for spring 1999, the designer emerged at the end of the catwalk, one arm around each of his two chief assistants, a gesture of acknowledgment as generous as it was rare.
In an industry famous for its seething rivalries and titanic egos, Mr. Blass's decision to take his bows last month with the two assistant designers -- Laura Montalban and Craig Natiello -- was so unusual that Mr. Natiello, a dry-spoken man with a distinctly jaded air, was momentarily giddy. ''I feel like a deb,'' he said afterward. ''Maybe I should have worn white.''
If Mr. Natiello's instant in the limelight turned his head, you really couldn't blame him. He and many of his counterparts at other fashion houses have long toiled in obscurity, their contributions recognized only by close associates and a handful of fashion insiders. Until relatively recently, the assistant designer was an employer's best kept secret, generating ideas and sometimes executing them, sketching models and draping mannequins.
''I don't think there's a designer in the world who doesn't have an assistant or a design team behind him,'' said the designer Carolina Herrera. ''But few people talk about it. And the team is always hidden.''
Lately, however, the veil of secrecy has begun to lift, if only by degrees. It may be because so many former assistants have succeeded in what almost all aspire to: emerging as stars themselves, appointed to lead houses. They include Tom Ford, the designer for Gucci; Alber Elbaz, formerly an apprentice with Geoffrey Beene and recently named Yves Saint Laurent's designer of ready to wear, and Narciso Rodriguez, who has his own line, and also designs for Loewe.
In the past, only a handful of well-known designers -- most notably Giorgio Armani and Nino Cerruti in Europe and Mr. Beene in New York -- introduced their backup team on the runway and to the press, bluntly declaring that a fashion collection is not the product of a single mind.
''You are bound to be influenced by the esthetics and the technological expertise of the people who work for you,'' said Mr. Cerruti, Mr. Rodriguez's former employer. Pretending otherwise is disingenuous, if not archaic, he continued, adding, ''It reminds me of the time young girls were kept as virgins in a castle until they got married.''
Still, in a business built largely on image, such candor is exceptional. The question of just who designs a collection remains so sensitive that many designers declined to discuss it at all. A spokeswoman for Calvin Klein did not return calls about the matter, and a spokeswoman for Ralph Lauren, declining comment, said, ''This is too complicated a subject, because there are so many people who work as assistants in our company.'' A spokeswoman for Richard Tyler said that the designer and his creative director, Simon Holloway, were both too busy last week to talk about it.
At the root of their reticence may be the need to reinforce the public perception that a single individual is responsible for the clothing with a designer's name on it. Matt Nye, a former assistant to both Mr. Lauren and Mr. Klein, who recently created his own collection, said: ''Smaller houses can generate notoriety and revitalize their image by attaching themselves publicly to a youthful designer. But in a bigger company, a designer doesn't want that association. It does him no good. People like Ralph and Calvin are huge personalities. They're still viable factors in the credibility game.''
Moreover, in fashion, as in other highly competitive industries, young talent is jealously guarded. ''Fashion is incestuous,'' Mr. Nye said. ''So if you have a very gifted designer, you keep him under wraps.''
Just as often, however, it is the assistant who elects to stay behind the scenes, mastering the role of understudy. Damiano Biello, a Paris-based consultant, who collaborated with Mrs. Herrera on her latest collection, isn't fazed by his near-anonymity. ''I'm ambitious and working hard so that one day I can open my own business,'' he said. ''But first there is a price to pay, and I am willing to pay it.''
Part of that price includes persisting in a job with hazy outlines. ''Being an assistant can mean a lot of things -- you can go get the coffee or you can help make a dress,'' said Robert Funk, a New York designer and former sample cutter, designer and sounding board for Zoran, Jackie Rogers and Marc Jacobs.
Whether called associate designer, creative director or designer, the designer's assistant, working alone or as part of a team of 4 to 40, juggles a roster of jobs, from scouting fabrics, cutting sample garments and sketching models to running interference between the design studio, where ideas germinate, and the sample room, where they take shape.
But the heart of the job is to serve as antennae, picking up design and cultural signals that one's employer may be too busy, or too secluded, to note. ''As you get older, you need fresh blood -- you want to look at the world through another pair of eyes,'' said Diane Von Furstenberg, who named Catharine Malandrino, 35, a Frenchwoman 16 years her junior, as designer of the DVF Signatures collection this year.
Established designers like Ms. Von Furstenberg draw on an ever-changing pool of talent, feeding on the visions their associates inspire.

Chemical interactions can lead to unusual arrangements between species
James McClintock, Bill Baker
All is fair in love, war, and it seems, predation. All three of these conditions exert selection pressures on organisms, who respond in turn, by developing flashy colors, camouflage, spines, teeth, claws and quills. But ecologists are coming to appreciate that the relations between the species can also be much less obvious. Chemicals, such as pheromones and toxins, can profoundly influence the ways that species interact. What this means for ecologists is that the race between predator and prey may not always go to the swift or the toothsome, as is often assumed. Rather, the sluggish and toothless may possess powerful toxins that skew the odds in their favor. And sometimes, our authors reveal, the chemical relations between the species can lead to completely unexpected arrangements.

AT best, you get some 40 conversions down to 9mm. And, some 40 owners get conversion barrels to go from 40 to 357 sig, depending on the brand of gun and availability of the barrel.
You will not get a 9mm/40 to up convert to a 45. Not gonna happen. Slide, barrel and frame all have different dimensions. The body of the frame (grip) will also be bigger on a 45 caliber of the same gun model. Go look at some 9mms and 45 ACP models of the exact same model (like an HK UCP9 and HK USPc45). Not the same size grip.
EVen a 1911 in various calibers typically cannot just covert like that with a simple change of the slide. Ejectors, extractors, feed ramps, etc... All are slightly different in various calibers
I now have a P90 (45ACP) that I can convert to fully functioning P91 (40 S&W) with just a slide swap, and am looking to extending this further to a P89. (9mm).
This was done without any positive input to this thread. I figured out how to do it myself.
To those negative posters here, if you don't have anything positive to contribute, then you should not be replying to people only to disparage them for their innovation. Whether it is guns or any myriad of subjects.

You're right. They won't interchange."
Why don't you call Ruger? Technicians at the Prescott, AZ plant are experts in these matters. If it is a drop in conversion they will tell you the truth and order the parts for you. Calling Prescott is lot simpler than going through all of this guessing.

Outdoor Polymer Cabinets - comparisons? reviews?

I have a small area, 6 feet long, next to my house and would like to put a cabinet with a sink and some storage cabinets. The plumbing and drain are already set up. I have been looking on the internet and found a few polymer/marine cabinet makers:
Does anyone know of other manufacturers? Any experience with the Marine grade polymer cabinets? They seem to cost about 1/2 of what stainless steel would and from what I see, I like them better. How do the different manufacturers compare? I appreciate any information and help I can get.

UCLA vs Gonzaga: Gameday reads
For anyone looking for something to do between now and UCLA's tipoff against Gonzaga at 4:15 p.m. PT (CBS), here's a roundup of relevant reading:
– Isaac Hamilton started the season on a bumpy path, but has rediscovered his "old man's game" late in the season.
– UCLA assistant coach Ed Schilling once shot poorly in a football stadium, but he doesn't think the same will hold for the Bruins at NRG Stadium.
– From the Spokesman-Review: The first person to ever hire Steve Alford as a coach explains how it happened.
– From Grantland: How Kyle Wiltjer turned himself into a star by leaving Kentucky.
– From Y! Sports: An oral history of UCLA's 2006 comeback against Gonzaga.
– And last but not least … Bill Walton's recent aMa on Reddit.
At a glance: No. 11-seed UCLA vs. No. 2-seed Gonzaga
No. 11-seed UCLA (22-13) vs. No. 2-seed Gonzaga (34-2)
NCAA South Regional semifinal
Friday, 4:15 p.m. PT, NRG Stadium (Houston)
TV: CBS (Jim Nantz, Bill Raftery, Grant Hill, Tracy Wolfson)
Radio: AM 570 (Chris Roberts, Tracy Murray)
Scouting report: Gonzaga is, simply put, the best offensive team that UCLA has played this season. The Bulldogs have enough weapons to survive an off night from any one player except Kyle Wiltjer.
Gonzaga is ranked first in the country in effective field goal percentage, and is accurate at the rim, beyond the arc, and most areas in between. Only 6.2 percent of the Zags' shots get blocked, lower than all but four others in college basketball. Parts you could pick at? This isn't a team that gets to the line all that often, or converts at a particularly high rate (68.7 percent). It's not a truly dominant offensive rebounding team.
But overall, this is a very dangerous scoring roster. That offensive engine helped push head coach Mark Few over his recent round-of-32 hump, where Gonzaga ended its past five seasons.
UCLA didn't get blown out in its only loss at Pauley Pavilion, but it also didn't look competitive for most of the second half. The Zags led by double digits for almost that entire stretch, and easily snuffed out the one run the Bruins made shortly out of halftime. Still, this is a very different UCLA team than the one that lost five straight starting in December. Continue reading
UCLA adjusts to shooting in cavernous NRG Stadium
UCLA arrived in Houston last night, and shot around for about an hour or so this morning at NRG Stadium. Formerly known as Reliant Stadium, the football venue can seat up to 80,000 people — absolutely dwarfing any other place the Bruins have played this season.
Will that set-up affect how players shoot?
"You get to go out there and you see how big the stadium is," said point guard Bryce Alford. "The scoreboard is huge. The court is elevated. All that stuff. It's what you dream of when you're a kid, playing in a venue like this. …
"You got to get used to the shooting. It's definitely different, but they've done a great job of making the background darker. There's black (canvas) behind both hoops. So, I don't think it will be too much different than shooting in a normal gym."
In case you missed anything, here's a roundup of our UCLA-Gonzaga coverage so far this week: Continue reading
Q&A: March Madness edition — 3/24/15 Answers
Q: What is the over/under on the number of times CBS/Tru/ESPN will reference "Heart….Break….City" between Wednesday and game time?
A: My very scientific analysis puts it at 27.
Q: Snowball's chance in hell of beating Gonzaga, a team which Mark Few states is the best he has coached?
A: kenpom.com gives UCLA a 23 percent chance of pulling the upset, which feels right to me. I don't think the Bruins really have an answer for Kyle Wiltjer, though.
Q: Do you lend credence to the sentiment UCLA should not have been selected to participate in this year's tourney?
A: Talking purely about the quality of basketball the Bruins were playing at the end of the season, I think it's clear they deserved to be in the field. But there were clear questions about their overall resume — particularly their inability to win on the road — which is why I, like many others, didn't think they would actually earn a spot come Selection Sunday.
I think UCLA proved it deserved a spot by beating SMU. Goaltending call or not, the Bruins outplayed the Mustangs for most of the game before giving up 19 unanswered points. (Still crazy to look at that number!) Beating UAB isn't particularly impressive since the Bruins were so much more talented, but you do what you need to get to the Sweet 16.
Q: Playing the "what if" game: What if the goaltending wasn't called? SMU tips the shot ball by Alford, and Kevon Looney gets the rebound. Continue reading

Hi all, new to the forum.
Curious about the position of the firing pin when I have a round chambered, I've heard it's an intermediate position that will not allow it to go off if dropped and that pulling the trigger fully cocks then releases the firing pin?
By the way I have a Taurus PT140 but I am also curious about the Springfield xd40.

You are describing the common "half-cock" feature that most striker fired semi-automatics have when a round is chambered.
I am not sure if the Taurus lineup has this feature, but other brands such as the Springfield XD, Glock, and Smith and Wesson M&P have this feature (just to name a few). The purpose is to allow reasonable safe carry in condition 1 while utilizing a slightly lighter trigger pull (some striker fired weapons are known for having horrible trigger pulls).

Jets brainstorming on how to win away from home
Winnipeg plays Bruins today in Boston at noon
BOSTON -- Deep in the bowels of the TD Garden -- the proud home of the Boston Bruins -- the Winnipeg Jets all seem to be singing from the same songbook.
Yes, they know their road record was dreadful last season.
And yes, they completely understand that if they play this afternoon the same way they did in Saturday's season-opening loss to the Ottawa Senators, they'll be uh-oh and two to start 2013.
So just how do the Jets roll up their sleeves and get down to the business of repairing this significant character flaw?
How do they bottle the energy and performance they showcased at MTS Centre for long stretches last season and then douse themselves with the magic formula before road games?
"As easy as it sounds to fix, it's tough," said Jets centre Bryan Little. "As much as you say you're going to treat it like a home game and come out the same way... it's hard to trick yourself into thinking you're at home."
And so it went during a quick tour of the Jets dressing room Sunday. To a man, this bunch all know the road-woes remedies -- the attention to detail, playing a simpler, more defensively sound game and blah, de-blah, blah.
But they also know that after a year of spitting out the same answers last season, all that talk is just verbal diarrhea until the results start coming.
As much as fans are tired of hearing about it, they are tired of talking about it.
There's also this potential breakthrough -- though there are no measurables to quantify it: The Jets seem to understand this isn't just about chipping pucks off the glass and making the safe, poised play on the ice. It's also a mental hurdle this team is going to have to leap over if it has any hope of being in the playoff picture this season.
"It's our mindset," Little said. "Last year it was easy for us to get up for home games. It seemed like we had a different kind of energy there and it gave us a lot of confidence playing at home.
"Some of these buildings and teams can be a bit intimidating to play in front of. But we can't be intimidated. We have to have that same kind of confidence at home and energy at home that we're going to have on the road."
The excuses are all built in: from Winnipeg playing again in the Southeast Division, to having to cover the most kilometres of any team in their conference, to being the only team that changes time zones for every single one of their games this season.
Not a single word of that was brought up by anybody in the organization on Sunday.
And so, in the right-here-and-now and without having played a single game on the road, recognizing there is a problem could -- COULD -- be seen as an important first step.
But making a positive change is the critical Step 2.
"The good thing is most of the players have given a lot of thought to the how and why, which we all have," said head coach Claude Noel. "The coaches have to build that foundation of belief and the players have to just focus on the team and the 60 minutes of play. You have to come with an attitude of how to win on the road and a lot of that starts with patience and preparation.
"But those things are earned. When you have success and you're familiar with winning on the road and familiar with playing in the playoffs... these are all things that bring your team together... With the experience of winning and doing those things you end up creating all the sacrifices and habits that lead you to winning on the road."

Modern Pioneers Follow Oregon Trail
(POCATELLO) – A group of modern-day pioneers made their way through Pocatello over the weekend, honoring those who made the journey to Oregon over 150 years ago. The Buck family hopes to make it to Oregon within the next few weeks by traveling up to 20 miles every day in their covered wagons. Group members say the 1,400 mile journey has taught them a great deal about human nature and the sacrifices of their predecessors.

Hi, well here is the first chapter for my new HG/SS story! The title comes from a song of the same name by a brilliant band called Anberlin, who I highly recommend! I thought up the idea for this story whilst listening to it, and it fits in with the plotline later on, so there you go! Also, just to say, this is an 'eventual HG/SS' story, so I won't be plunging right in there with the Hermione/Severus action, it'll take some back-story and plot building, but when it does come, there'll be lots of it, I promise you!
I hope you enjoy the chapter and reviews are more than welcome!
Disclaimer – I don't own Harry Potter, I'm just playing around with JK's creations.
Chapter 1 – Achieving the Impossible
Smiling smugly to herself, Hermione sat down at her desk and picked up that morning's copy of The Phoenix, a thrill of pride rushing through her as she read the headline that she herself had written.
It was simple, but catchy, she liked to think. Not to mention the satisfying truth that sat comfortably behind the words. It was true; since The Phoenix had been set up a year ago by Hestia Jones, Bill Weasley and herself, it had quickly managed to sell far more copies than The Daily Prophet, thus becoming the Wizarding population of Britain's favourite mainstream newspaper. She smiled again, thinking of Rita Skeeter's face when she saw the headline. Where was Colin Creevey when you needed him?
Here at The Phoenix, we are delighted that our reader's appreciate the honesty with which our journalists write, our unbiased approach to the news and the individuality that the paper possesses. We, unlike The Daily Prophet, are not influenced or pressurised by the Ministry or any other organisation, and many readers have written to us to express their admiration for that fact. We cover every side of every story and are dedicated to presenting the news to the nation, and that, we've been told, is the secret to our success. And if you want to know our honest opinion, we think so too.
So today, on the one year anniversary of The Phoenix's launch, we would like to thank each and every one of you for reading, subscribing to and supporting the paper over the past year. We hope there are many more successful years to come and we will, as always, endeavour to get the news to you as quickly and as fairly as we always have.
Many thanks,
Hestia Jones. Editor.
"So, what do you think?"
Hermione looked up to see Hestia, her good friend and boss, stood in front of her desk with a smile just as wide as her own. "Brilliant," she said, standing up. "Just brilliant; couldn't have said it better myself."
Hestia laughed, smoothing back her long, raven coloured hair. "Well, here's to another year of writing till two o'clock in the morning and spending tedious hours organising interviews with anyone and everyone."
Nodding, Hermione glanced at her watch. "So, in light of recent achievements, do you think I can go early to lunch?"
"Hm..." Hestia pretended to look thoughtful. "Meeting up with Carl, are we?"
Feeling slight colour rise in her cheeks, Hermione smiled and began gathering her quill, ink and parchment into a bag. "Possibly," she replied, shrinking the bag and placing it into her pocket.
"You better go then," she told her with a knowing wink. "But I want you back here in two hours, I need that article on new wand cores for tomorrow's paper!" she called as Hermione hurried towards the door.
"I'll be here," Hermione replied before she disappeared out of the door, a whirlwind of unruly curls and sapphire cloak.
The bitter January air hit Hermione mercilessly in the face as she left The Phoenix offices, biting at her face until her skin felt raw. Drawing her cloak tighter around herself and casting the best warming charm she could, Hermione set off at a brisk walk towards Diagon Alley. The Phoenix building was situated pretty much in the heart of Wizarding London, very close to Diagon Alley, but far away from any Ministerial influence. It was the perfect location: close to all the action, but far enough away from anything that could restrain it. She smiled again, feeling almost euphoric at the success the newspaper had achieved. Setting it up with Hestia and Bill was one of the best things she had ever done.
Hermione soon found herself outside her favourite cafe - a warm, cosy sort of place, tucked away down a small street just off Diagon Alley. As she pushed the door open, the warm air hit her freezing face like a blow to the head, making her feel slightly dizzy for a moment. Blinking, she pulled off her cloak and made her way over to the table where a broad-shouldered, light-haired man was waiting.
"Hestia let you go early then," he said, smiling as Hermione dropped her cloak over the back of the chair and sat down.
"Yeah," she said, a smile automatically springing to her lips as she met with his turquoise eyes. Leaning across the table slightly, he pressed his lips to hers, one hand gently cupping the side of her face.
"Missed you," he told her quietly, their faces still inches apart.
"Carl, you saw me this morning," Hermione replied, laughing slightly.
He shrugged, kissing her again. "It's been a busy morning, though something really interesting has happened."
"Oh yeah?" she asked, sitting back to look at the lunch menu. "What's that then?"
"I can't tell you here, but it's really exciting. I'll tell you all about it at home tonight."
Frowning, Hermione looked up to see a genuine excitement dancing in his bright eyes, the familiar easy-going smile spread across his face. "Why can't you tell me here, if it's so exciting?"
"That's the thing though," he groaned, quite obviously itching to tell her. "It's kind of a secret. As in, I'm allowed to tell you, but where others can't overhear." He gestured subtly to the other people sat at the neighbouring tables.
Curiosity was beginning to bubble in the pit of Hermione's stomach as he smiled excitedly and rested his head on his hands, eyes fixed on her. "Okay then, fine...but this better be good," she told him, setting down the menu. "You'll have me trying to guess all day now. You know I don't like not knowing things."
He laughed, reaching out a hand to wrap around hers on top of the table. "Tell me about it," he sighed, "I was two years above you in school and in a separate house, but I still knew what a know-it-all you were."
"You can't talk," Hermione said back, narrowing her eyes at him. "You were in Ravenclaw."
"And?" he retorted with a raised eyebrow.
"And...Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you've a ready mind. Where those of wit and learning, will always find their kind."
Carl raised the other eyebrow. "Whoa, did you remember everything the sorting hat said?"
"Nah," she replied, chuckling. "Just the important stuff."
"Either way, it proves you're a know-it-all," he said, eyes sparkling as she pursed her lips in annoyance. "Oh come on," he laughed, squeezing her hand. "I know you love me really."
Sighing, Hermione's lips lifted slightly at the corners as she smiled, meeting his gaze. "You should think yourself lucky that I do bloody love you, or I'd have sent a very good bat-bogey hex your way by now."
"Aw," he said, sarcasm laced through his voice, "How romantic of you." He pulled back his hand from hers to prop his head up on it again. "Although, I do actually think myself lucky that you love me, and not just because it saves me from your bat-bogey hex, which I do happen to know are pretty nasty."
She smiled again, feeling a little self-conscious under his intense gaze.
"I mean it," he said in a low voice, his face deadly serious now. "I love you."
"Love you too," she replied instantly, coyly bringing her eyes back up to lock with his again, "And not just because I get twenty-four hour care if I'm sick."
In that moment, sat in his London apartment reading Potions Weekly and treating himself to a generous measure of Firewhiskey, Severus Snape was about as close as he could get to being what most people would call happy. He was certainly extremely satisfied, if nothing else. Yes, without being arrogant, he was quite proud of himself. He had just achieved what many Potioneers had been trying to achieve for centuries, not to mention dozens of magical specialists and charm investigators. He, Severus Snape, had achieved the impossible.
Setting down his now empty glass, Severus glanced around the tastefully decorated lounge and sighed. If only Lucius could see him now... Not that he was ever going to see the light of day again after being condemned to a cell in Azkaban for the rest of his days.
"Good riddance," he muttered under his breath as he got up off the couch. Following the war, a great number of people had fought to have his name cleared and amazingly, they had won. Potter, of course, had been amongst them, trying to do his bit for the man who had loved his beloved mother. Well, he could take his pity and shove it up the arse of that wretched sock-loving house elf of his, because he had achieved the impossible. He didn't need pity.
Wearing something dangerously close to a smile, Severus picked up his empty glass and made his way over to the drinks cabinet, deciding that he more than deserved a refill. A few unopened letters sat on his windowsill, some yellowing from the exposure to the sun they had been forced to suffer over the few weeks they had been sat there. He would ignore them for the time being. Most of them would be from Minerva, and the last thing he needed was that woman's incessant nagging to dampen his unusually high spirits. He'd reply to them in a few days, or weeks...what did it matter?
No, nothing mattered. Because he'd done it. He'd finally done it.
As I said, reviews are more than welcome and I'd love to know your thoughts; constructive criticism or otherwise! Thanks for reading and a special thank you to TheFatalIllusion for being so awesome and for encouraging me with this!

A recent survey of about 500 registered dietitians asked what they (we) thought were going to be the biggest diet and nutrition trends in 2015. I love stuff like this and think it helps spark conversation among fellow nutrition professionals – a lot of us can unite on similar things that drive us nuts (for me it's currently the whole "gluten is bad/evil/toxic" belief) and things that we love (new superfoods, acceptance of healthy fats and ancient grains, for example).
One thing the survey found is that most dietitians agree consumers receive the majority of their nutrition information from blogs and websites (and maybe even Instagram?), which leads to mass confusion as not all of this information is accurate. I'm going to take this a little further and say most of the stuff out there isn't accurate (accurate here being nutrition information backed by evidence-based research and professional experience).
For example – how many times have you heard "gluten free","dairy free", "grain free", "soy free" or "[insert food group] free" lately? The trend of super restrictive diets seems to be growing, as is the belief that the more things you cut out, the "healthier" you are. And if a meal or recipe has lots of those "frees" in them, it's better for you. I tend to look at it like this, though, and so do a lot of my fellow RDs – the more foods and food groups you unnecessarily (meaning, you don't medically need to) cut out of your diet, the harder it is to get in a variety of quality nutrients. And what's more, there is nothing wrong with any of these food groups! Sometimes I wish I could shout that from the rooftops all day every day. But instead of focusing on the (again, unnecessary) things to take away from your diet, how about all of the great, nutritious foods that can be added? Here are a few of my current favorites.
Goji berries – native to China, these little dried red berries are packed with antioxidants and also provide a healthy dose of vitamins C, A and a bit of fiber. They're great sprinkled onto oatmeal or yogurt, added to granola or trail mix and have a sweet but not to sweet taste. A bit on the pricey side, I find them most affordable in the bulk bins at the grocery store.
Sunflower seeds – an excellent source of vitamin E, a fat soluble antioxidant that helps reduce cellular damage from free radicals throughout the body. They also contain phytosterols, which may help lower cholesterol levels and promote heart health, and are a good source of copper, magnesium and selenium. I love them sprinkled on top of salads for a perfectly nutty crunch.
sunflower seeds on top of this winning hospital salad bar combo = perfect!
Chia seed pudding – when I was home sick last week, I spent a strangely large chunk of time trying to perfect my chia seed pudding recipe. So far, I'm working with a combination of almond milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, cocoa powder and coconut, but it's still not totally there yet (I'll share when it is!). I love this stuff, though, because chia seeds are packed with fiber, have some protein and are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, which is key for healthy brain function. A small portion of this pudding is also really filling, which makes for a perfectly satisfying and low calorie snack.
Cacao nibs – pieces of raw cacao beans after they are roasted and broken down, these minimally processed bits are bittersweet to taste and very potent sources of antioxidants. They also contain some fiber and are an excellent source of magnesium. Great sprinkled on top of desserts, used for baking, smoothies or even savory dishes, cacao nibs may also give a bit of an energy boost due to the presence of a compound called theobromine, which has a mild stimulating effect.
Pistachios – packed with phytochemicals, healthy fats, fiber, protein and potassium, recent studies have found pistachios may help control body weight by promoting satiety and have a positive effect on blood sugar control. One of my favorite ways to enjoy these nuts are in this homemade granola, or simply sprinkled on top of Greek yogurt.
the most delicious granola there ever was
Quick running update – today is one of the first days I feel like a fully functioning human again! I ran about 7 miles on the treadmill (and now I know that's probably my limit) because it was a bit too cold out for my recently stressed out lungs and icy from this horrendous weather. Will probably have some more ponderings on potential changes to my spring racing schedule at some point soon.

I want to try an apple ale. I got a recipe from a friend on here but also wanted to ask what everyone else thinks too. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank You.
Post the recipe?http://www.stoutbillys.com/ has a few apple ale recipes.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"
"I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
apples have a very high pectin content. be careful and use a pectinase to clear up the haze. i wouldn't throw your fruit in the last part of the boil because of this, as well. i'd probably throw the apples into your secondary ferment, since the alcohol content will take care of some of the natural critters in the apple. that will help somewhat, but i'd still be careful - try frozen fruit or purees with no preservatives. concentrates are iffy, i dont know enough about them. they might work well.
the reason i say this is because i'm partly done with my first fruit-ish beer. does anyone have any input? am i mostly right?
and i'd like to ask a question -
lets say i rack my beer into the secondary fermenter and add a fruit puree. how long should i let it ferment before i rack it to a tertiary? and what should i use for my tertiary - a pail with an airlock, or another carboy?
this is assuming that the primary takes 4-5 days, if that is helpful info.
