Patricia Brecht, of Baldwinsville, has positively impacted Upstate Medical University through her advocacy, support and promotion of employment recruitment programs to ensure a diverse current and future workforce.
Across dimensions of diversity, Brecht's spirit of fairness and equity embodies the values of the State University of New York system by providing equal employment opportunity to all in Central New York. "Thank you to the YWCA of Syracuse and Onondaga County, I am honored to receive this prestigious award," said Brecht. "I am very proud to be a member of the SUNY Upstate family, where I am given the opportunity to be involved in efforts that promote an inclusive environment."
Most people who meet Wendy Carl Isome, of Baldwinsville, quickly conclude she is a remarkable woman. They are right about this. She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and she is now an active spokesperson who has a mission to educate women about ovarian cancer. She also remains committed to promoting voluntarism and developing the potential of all women.
Brecht and Isome will be honored with a Diversity Achievers Award at the 14th Annual YWCA Day of Commitment to Eliminate Racism and Promote Diversity Luncheon, Thursday, April 26, beginning at noon at the SRC Arena at Onondaga Community College. The keynote speaker for the event is David Smith, M.D., President of Upstate Medical University. Awards for the 2012 class of the YWCA Academy of Diversity Achievers will be presented.
Each year the YWCA offers corporations and organizations an opportunity to nominate individuals in their organization or community that have demonstrated they actively participate in promoting diversity, work toward the elimination of racism and support opportunities for women, criteria that embody the YWCA mission.
Prior to the luncheon, diversity training workshops will be offered from 8:30 to 11:15 a.m. This year there are three workshops: Microaggression at the Workplace: what it is and how to minimize it (what about the Asian colleague?), Transitioning in the Workplace and Celebrating Diversity. Events prices: $50 workshops and luncheon ($35 student fee workshops and luncheon); $40 luncheon (only); $20 workshops (only).

When Pardew Signs Crocks - You Have To Expect Injuries
We went into depth yesterday about the prospect of Newcastle Utd being without key players this season because of the horrendous record they have for injuries. Alan Pardew signed two players this summer that failed medicals at Stoke City and Liverpool . for God's sake! What does Pardew know that those two clubs don't? More important - what do Stoke City and Liverpool know that Pardew doesn't? Then there is Hatem Ben Arfa - he gets a five year deal when he is on a stretcher coming to terms with a career-threatening injury. Dan Gossling signs under the same circumstances. So when Hatem Ben Arfa is taken to hospital during the 0-0 draw with Sporting Kansas City is it any surprise? The Frenchman was carried off the field on a stretcher after a challenge by Roger Espinoza 30 minutes into the game during the early hours of this morning and taken for an X-ray on his left ankle. It was later confirmed that Ben Arfa, who missed all but four games of last season with a double leg fracture, is to fly back to Tyneside as medics attempt to assess the full extent of any damage. A club statement said: "Hatem Ben Arfa sustained an injury to his left ankle in a tackle during the club's friendly against Sporting Kansas on Wednesday evening and went to a local hospital for a precautionary X-ray. "Consequently he will be leaving the club's US tour tomorrow and the injury will be reassessed over the next 48 hours." The news is a fresh blow to manager Alan Pardew, who embarked on the tour on Sunday without Joey Barton, Yohan Cabaye and Nile Ranger after they were refused entry visas. Ben Arfa too will hope the injury proves to be a minor one after a long haul back to fitness from the horrific break he suffered in a challenge with Manchester City's Nigel de Jong on October 3. Summer signings Sylvain Marveaux and Demba Ba made debuts for the club at the Livestrong Stadium, but were unable to give them a winning start to their three-match tour. Newcastle face Orlando City during the early hours of Sunday morning and Columbus Crew three days later. Pardew Questions Size Of Toon Squad! Alan Pardew says Danny Guthrie and Shane Ferguson are likely to miss the start of the new season . and he says two more injuries would put pressure on his side. The duo picked up ankle and leg injuries respectively at Darlington on Friday night. But with the club trying to off-load Leon Best, Nile Ranger, Wayne Routledge, Alan Smith and Shola Ameobi . and Jose Enrique sure to leave . isn't the situation only going to get worse? We signed two players who failed medicals at other clubs (Liverpool and Stoke) and Dan Gosling and Hatem Ben Arfa have yet to show they have recovered from serious injuries. This is the summer transfer window - a time to spend money and build a squad - and that doesn't seem to be happening. The warning signs are there - we don't want to be caught the way we were in January - selling Andy Carroll on the last day and not bringing in a replacement. Pardew: "It's not particularly great news on either of them. "It's looking like neither will be ready for the start of the season. "Fergie has probably got more chance than Guthrie. "It's OK, we can cope, but if we lost another two, then it won't be OK. "I wouldn't say we're on a knife-edge with injuries, but our squad isn't particularly big."

Released: Jun 01st, 1992
Running Time: 67
Director: Sebastian (I)
Company: Infinity Video
Jeanna Fine, Cal Jammer, Sabrina (I), Devon Shire, Ted Wilson, Lyn Tars, Tony Martino, Don Fernando, Shawna, Stacey Nichols
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Feature
This wall-to-waller has four sex scenes, two of which have fake hermaphrodites in them (played by Stacey Nichols and Shawna), maphrodite scenes, the Stacey/Cal/Lyn triad is the best. My only complaint is that we never get to see Stacey fuck Lyn - I mean what's the point of putting a fake dick on her if she's not going to use it? The scene with Jeanna Fine is unusual in that she never fucks the guy she's with (though he never looks like he has enough wood to do it anyway), and she talks to the camera just a little too often. The other two scenes aren't worth mentioning, so I won't. Stacey Nichols and Jeanna Fine are what earned this tape a AA rating. Pretty packaging.

As They See It: Sexual Assault and Prevention
MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1998 Sexual assault is not an issue that anyone likes to think or talk about. Yet this crime of silence affects thousands of high school and college students every year in epidemic proportions: before the age of 18, one in three girls and one in seven boys will be the victims of sexual assault or incest. And, according to Robin Warsaw's I Never Called It Rape (1988), every 21 hours, on each college campus, a rape occurs. On the night of her graduation from high school, Allyson Kurker was sexually assaulted by a classmate. Only after she learned that her perpetrator had been expelled from college for another assault did Allyson find the courage to press criminal charges against him. Her case received national media attention when the administrators from her former high school rallied to his defense. Since then, Allyson has transcended the limits of victim and has become an activist by speaking to college and high school audiences. Allyson graduated from Connecticut College in May 1997 with a B.A. in economics. She has postponed any graduate school plans or future career goals to continue speaking on this important issue. In November 1996, Allyson's efforts were recognized by the Massachusetts chapter of the National Organization for Women, who named her the recipient of their Woman of Courage Award, an honor reserved for those who have made ground-breaking efforts on behalf of women's rights and who have taken individual actions that serve as examples for others to follow. You are welcome to join us for a lecture and discussion on this timely topic. Ms. Kurker's appearance is cosponsored by the Dean of Students at CMC. |

Author's Note
This is the third and last chapter of The Only Way Out.
"Alan, come to bed," Carol called out to her husband of two years.
"I'm putting things away in the living room. Just another minute or two."
"Now," as she created a hand around his balls and fondled them a bit roughly.
"I'm coming now. Don't squeeze." Ten seconds later he ran through the bedroom doorway. "Ok. What should I do?"
"Get undressed. You are about to make love to me."
Alan was both pleased and sad. Sex always felt good, especially given how she always made his cock sensitive, but to be allowed to climax only rarely meant frustration in the end and long periods of it. It was almost worth forgoing sex altogether. Nevertheless, his wife had given him a command and he had to obey.
"I see your sexual frustration in your mind, of course, but tonight is unique. You are not only going to orgasm, you are going to impregnate me."
Alan stopped and stared.
"Really. You are going to impregnate me. And you have to orgasm for that."
"We haven't discussed children except to agree we both want children. You never said you wanted children now."
"Well, I do. Keep getting undressed."
Alan resumed undressing. "You should have talked to me about this. Talked with me about this. I am to be the father and you should not just make a pronouncement on a topic this big."
"It's my decision to make both as a woman and a sex mage."
"We still should have talked."
"It would just have been a matter of me informing you, which I just did."
Alan wanted to ask just how much she respected and loved him but he knew there was no point. He pulled off his underwear and stood naked, looking at Carol sitting up in bed.
Carol grinned at him and reached out with her hand. His cock flew to full erection and his balls pulled him to her. Following his balls, Alan climbed onto the bed and lay next to her as she slid down also. It should have been hard to be sexually attracted to a woman in total control of him with a thought or a whim, but Carol was an attractive woman of twenty three years and he was sexually frustrated. The fact that she caused the frustration by denying him the ability to orgasm for exasperatingly long times did nothing to reduce the frustration or his need to satisfy it. And he knew that in her own way as a sex mage she did care for him.
Alan moved closer and gently kissed her lips. She responded to the kiss and poured a little aphrodisiac into his mind. He reached to pull her body closer as he kissed harder. She opened her mouth and ran her tongue over his lips and then they touched tongues and played with each other.
Carol put one hand on his chest and felt the contour of his pectoral muscle, a lovely masculine contour she loved to fondle. She made him tense and relax that muscle so she could feel it swell and harden and then ease again. This was just the start, for this was a special night and she was going to stretch it out.
Breakfast in the morning started normally. Alan had a pastry and coffee while Carol ate yogurt with sliced fruit. Throughout breakfast both were quiet. Alan's thoughts were on the workday ahead of him and doing his part to create a winning bid on a waterworks upgrade for a nearby community. He couldn't tell what his wife was thinking as she smiled at him.
"Carol, is something wrong?"
"I'm just waiting and I want you to wait with me. You can be a little late for work."
"Is that an order because I'm supposed to be there today."
Carol pondered a moment and said, "Yes, that is an order. It won't be long."
"Is whatever we are waiting for related to our sex last night?"
"Yes. Now be patient. It won't be long."
Alan cleaned up after himself and sat in their living room to resume reading his current book, a recent adventure novel set in Africa some years Before Powers. He had read eleven pages when Carol walked in and announced, "This is it. I'm pregnant with our son. We'll name him Douglas."
Alan had never known that a sex mage's awareness extended this far. "It's news that you have the power to perceive this. This is wonderful! I'm going to be a daddy. Um, I have to ask, are you sure?"
"Yes, Alan, I'm sure," she laughed. "Your sperm just fertilized my egg."
"How can you know we're having a son?"
"Aside from having formed the thought last night to conceive a son, I can simply perceive that this is a son. You can trust me on this."
"I do," and he walked over and hugged her tightly and she hugged him back. He had never felt so close to her and wanted to protect her from any harm. He wanted to be her knight in armor. Then he felt abashed. What could he do to protect a sex mage? It was impossible for a man to have a significant role in the world even at a personal level. Nevertheless, Alan was ecstatic about having a child.
"Carol, I'm delighted but I have to leave for work now."
"Not yet. Practice a little more patience," and she returned to the kitchen.
Forgoing asking why, Alan resumed reading his book. It was fifteen minutes later that Carol returned and informed him, "I'm pregnant with our daughter. Her name will be Meredith."
"You conceived twins? You decided to conceive twins?"
"Yes. Aren't you delighted?"
"I am. I am. Carol, I love you."
"I'm glad, sweetheart, and I love you, too" and she kissed him. "Now you can go to work and make a lot of money for me and our babies."
Carol's pregnancy caused no problems at all. She had no morning sickness, no cravings, no backaches, no difficulty urinating and no problems sleeping. It was a typical sex mage pregnancy and made for a pleasant eight and a half months.
Alan had some extra work to do during his wife's pregnancy. Taking advantage of his engineering and building skills, Carol told him what improvements she wanted to the house. Her maternal instincts were to provide the safest possible environment for her children and a convenient environment for her. Alan was her means to that end.
Over the course of her pregnancy she gave Alan several projects. She wanted an extension built on the back of their house for a playroom, a major project that would cost more than she was willing to have professionally done, especially given that Alan had all the required skills. He built the extension over a period of several months.
She also told him to install safety features such as high quality floor padding and convenience features including a laundry chute. At some of these projects Alan balked. He was doing the projects evenings and weekends and wanted a break.
One Saturday morning Alan told her, "Carol, I need to rest. Not just for a few minutes but rather I need this weekend off."
"When the babies are born there will be more work for both of us so you must complete these projects now. Remember that two babies are a lot of work."
"You should have conceived one at a time. Most women have two pregnancies."
"I may yet have two pregnancies. What makes you think we will stop with two children?"
"I hadn't thought about it. I just assumed."
"And you engineers are taught not to assume," Carol grinned at him.
"Even with twins I just need a break. Carol, please."
"Take this morning off but then keep going. You know the unexpected can make any project take longer than we think."
Taking the concession Alan relaxed that morning. Carol kept him company and cuddled with him on the sofa. Feeling his pregnant wife physically next to him gave Alan the same thrill husbands had felt since time immemorial.
"Carol, since you conceived you have cut down on my orgasms even though we have more sex than before. As your husband and lover I'm asking you to take me back at least to my schedule before you were pregnant."
"Husband, I'm using your orgasms as your incentive for completing our home projects. Neither of us wants you to have only threats as your inducement to work. That's why I give you one whenever you complete a project or a major stage of a big project. You know I've made them especially intense."
"I would do the work anyway. And I prefer more orgasms over fewer orgasms, even if they are especially intense."
"You would not do all the work anyway. After two years of marriage you can't seriously think I don't understand you."
"Not every project is necessary. Not every necessary project must be done now."
"We've been round and round on this. Let's not do it again."
It was time for Alan to give in so he remained silent.
Almost an hour later it was noon. Carol called to Alan, "It's time to get to work."
Alan walked to where he would continue working on the current project. All necessary tools and materials were there. The familiar shift in his groin as he started told him Carol had just put her usual spell on him. He could move about freely but his balls were confined to the work area. He had learned the first day of the first project not to walk away without Carol's approval. Except for bathroom breaks and meals (she did make her husband nice meals) she did not loose his balls until a certain amount of progress had been made.
Right on schedule Carol went into labor. Hospitals were rarely necessary but most women used them anyway because homes were not conveniently equipped for births.
Douglas arrived in this world first after an easy labor of only four hours. Not even an episiotomy had been necessary. Alan was present in the delivery room and held their baby while Carol continued pushing. Six minutes later Meredith emerged into the light.
While Alan continued holding Douglas, a nurse (male, of course) cleaned Meredith as Carol pushed out the placenta. She held her arms out to Alan who gave her Douglas to hold. A minute later the nurse carefully handed Meredith to Alan. He looked at his newborn son in his wife's arms and his newborn daughter in his own arms. A wave of love and protectiveness nearly overwhelmed him as he gazed at the new lives that were half from his body. He understood parenthood as he never had before.
"Carol, I intend to be the best daddy ever. I will do everything I can for our children. Love them, provide for them, teach them."
"You're a good man, Alan, and of course you will. Especially with Meredith."
"Why especially with Meredith and not Douglas?"
"Because if Meredith is displeased with you as a parent, when she gets her powers she will enslave you. And I won't be around every minute."
Alan felt cold throughout his body. This innocent life he held, his offspring, would someday be an enslaver while his innocent son would be some woman's slave. He wanted to shout out but to whom? He hugged his daughter to him and determined to teach her humanity as best he could.
Neil played with his granddaughter by swinging her in a circle and hoisting her higher and lower as he turned. She squealed with delight at every rise. Alan was tossing Douglas in the air and catching him on the way down only to toss him up again. With Carol visiting a friend that Saturday morning the men were free to play with the children as they liked.
Because the children were only three years old Neil and Alan felt free to discuss the affairs of the world in front of them.
"Neil, did Carol turn out the way you expected?"
"I didn't really have an expectation. How any girl turns out when she gets her powers seems unrelated to her personality before. But I think Carol must have been affected by not having a mother during her teen years."
"Was your married life anything like mine?"
"From what you have told me, yours is harsher than mine was, not that mine was a bed of roses. For example, Vicki never used her powers to lock me in a room until I did a certain amount of work. Offhand it doesn't sound like much but she does it so often."
"It's not torture but over a long period of time it's worse. The occasional torment can be tolerated if only painfully but the constant lack of self-determinism is galling."
"It's slavery really, not that they will ever acknowledge that."
"Carol did acknowledge it."
"I didn't know that. I've never heard of a woman being so blatant about her powers. I take it she uses them on you without any hesitation at all."
"Yes. Ever since a time three years ago when she taught me the extent of her powers by actual demonstration. The worst part of it is that she's right. Without an equalizer we are their slaves, and there's no equalizer in sight."
The men fell silent and put their full attention on the children, who like all small children were a delight to play with. Alan was the best father he could be and didn't think about that future date when Meredith would come into her powers.
After a while Neil spoke up. "I have an amusing idea. Suppose some women were stranded on a desert island with no men. Their powers would be useless with no man to use them on. They would have to fend for themselves. I wonder how well they would do. Pretty badly I would think."
As Neil spoke Alan caught Douglas and put him down, putting all his attention on Neil. "You've hit on something. I don't know what but there's something there. No woman will ever be stranded on a desert island but they really would be helpless without any men."
"It's just a thought experiment unless you can think of a way to accomplish this."
"I don't know. But you've put your finger on something and I will be thinking about it even though I don't yet know what I'll be thinking about. But there is something there."
That evening Alan was still lost in thought. Dinner had gone off smoothly and the children had been put to bed but Alan was still distracted by Neil's comments earlier in the day.
"What are you thinking about?" Carol asked him.
"Nothing significant."
"Tell me because I'm curious. You've been absorbed in thought since before dinner and it's nothing about sex because I can't see your thoughts."
"It's nothing really."
"It's obviously something. Tell me because you have made me curious."
"I really don't want to. It's nothing bad, just some private thoughts."
"Then I'll make it a command. Tell me what you are thinking."
"Carol, no. Please. Let's just talk about something else or maybe go for a walk. The kids will be ok sleeping in their beds for a while."
"I'm starting to get angry. It's not possible that you have forgotten that you have to obey me."
"Well I'm getting angry, too. I'm tired of your control. I'm tired of being your slave. Sometimes I just want to refuse you."
"I let you refuse me a lot."
"Less and less as time goes on."
"Be that as it may, you aren't refusing me now."
"Well I am. I refuse to tell you."
Alan was frozen from the waist down. He glared at Carol and found her glaring back at him. Neither was backing down but Carol was sure to be the winner.
"Husband, have you lost your mind?"
"Maybe I'm finding it for the first time, wife," Alan replied, his voice rising in anger. He had not openly shown anger to Carol in a long time.
Reacting to his attitude of defiance Carol sternly told him, "You will obey me after your punishment."
Alan was flung up against a wall, spread-eagled and unable to move any limb more than an inch or two. His cock went hyper-sensitive as though he had just had an orgasm and three mouths simultaneously started sucking on it. He bit his lip and tried to ignore the anguish but to no avail.
After only twenty seconds Alan cried out, "I surrender, I surrender, please stop!" and he whimpered a high-pitched moan.
Carol stopped the torment and gently lowered him. "Well?"
"I was thinking what would happen if some women were stranded on a desert island with no men. They would be helpless, their powers neutralized with no target for them. They would not know what to do since they couldn't make a man take care of their needs."
"You have a horribly low opinion of women. A disgusting attitude. I never would have guessed at your attitude. Of course you did not want to reveal it because you did not want to be punished for it."
"I wasn't thinking in terms of punishment. I just wanted privacy for my thoughts."
"What other negative thoughts about women do you enjoy?"
"None. Really."
"You certainly enjoyed this one."
"Yes, I did. Sometimes you women deserve to be punished."
"Maybe so, but until things change it's men who will be punished for their negativity towards women," retorted Carol. With a thought she flung him back up on the wall and resumed his previous anguish. She walked to their bedroom where she brushed her teeth, dressed herself in a nightgown, sat up in bed and started the next chapter of the book she was reading.
She would remember to take Alan down before she lay down to sleep. He was a good husband and father and just needed some handling on occasion.
When he was allowed to retire for the night Alan hid his resentment and hatred for his station in life. He did not really hate Carol herself but rather the inequity in life. He knew he would nurse this hatred in the coming years despite his resolve of only a few years before not to go down that path.
Two more years passed without serious friction between Carol and Alan. With the children in kindergarten part of the day Carol had more time for herself and made fewer demands on Alan. Alan realized he needed some outlets for himself, activities he liked that Carol was neither interested in nor minded his participation. His intention was to find spheres of activity in which he could be mostly self-determined. He found two of them, both completely male.
The first was serving on their county's Traffic Board. This was a body that studied local traffic issues in detail and made recommendations to the county executive and the seven county commissioners. These last were the women elected to serve as the county's chief executive and legislative body.
While the Traffic Board had no statutory authority it was nevertheless significant because its recommendations were usually adopted by the executive and the commissioners. There had been an opening on the Board and Alan had volunteered to serve. As a civil engineer he was perfectly qualified. He was immediately appointed by the county executive and approved by a unanimous vote of the commissioners.
It was not a big time commitment, only about ten hours a month, and only men served on the Traffic Board. Such detailed work was only done by men and they all enjoyed the stag environment in which they could excel and feel as adult men should feel, proud, accomplished and in charge. Alan gloried in his role.
Alan's other male activity was his participation in the Keystone Fish and Game Club. With Carol's permission he became an avid fisherman and hunter. He learned how to use most of the fishing and hunting gear suitable for the terrain and climate of the southern part of the country. Carol even permitted him to take several weekends each year with other members to catch fish or game, especially bass and white-tailed deer. Alan acquired all the right fishing equipment and for hunting he had guns and two compound bows. His attitude toward his compound bows was "Robin Hood, eat your heart out."
Participation in these two bastions of masculinity, even though neither would leave a mark on the world, gave Alan a sense of fulfillment he could get nowhere else, for there were few openly stag venues permitted by the women of the world.
When the twins were seven years old Meredith surprised Alan with her easy understanding of magic.
"Daddy, I saw Mr. Collier stop walking and tell Mrs. Collier to let him go. She said he wasn't going anywhere but then stopped when she saw me. She told me I had to go home so they could talk. She can do things to him, can't she daddy? And I guess all mommies can do things to daddies. Does mommy make you do a lot of things, daddy?"

I am a young professional who is keen on travel and meeting people from all walks of life. I am very much open-minded and accepting of others. I did couchsurfing for some time - mostly hosting - and now decided to try AirBnB.
Yakov has completed online and offline ID verification.
Yavok was very friendly and helpful. He was very good at recommending places to visit and very flexible.
Yakov was very helpful and friendly, offering suggestions on things to do and maps to help navigate. Room was sunny with beautiful plants and the apartment was very quiet (hardly knew Yakov was home!) and clean. Nice neighborhood with parking that was challenging but not unmanageable. Sunday morning breakfast at the nearby (Heartland Cafe-yummy organic food!) followed by a stroll through the Farmer's Market (across the street from Heartland) was a lovely Sunday morning neighborhood adventure.
Yakov has a very nice place and it was a pleasure staying with him. Clean accommodations as advertised in a pleasant neighborhood. Would definitely stay again.
Yakov was a very friendly and pleasant guest. I am happy to recommend him.
I've known Yakov for a few years. He is a very easy going relaxed person. Since he started hosting visitors through Couchsurfing, he's been very excited about it and has had great experiences. He also is a good resource to go to for Chicago happenings: he will know what shows and events are going on in the city. I've lived in his neighborhood for quite a few years: it's a genuine Chicago neighborhood with century old brick buildings and is right on the lake.

A friendly and charming city, Chiang Mai's little brother, Chiang Rai is the gateway to the Golden Triangle and one of the best places in Thailand to go trekking from. Although Chiang Mai is profoundly more popular, it's a lot easier from Chiang Rai to get out into the real mountain wilderness in just a few days. The longer you trek, the further into the Thai countryside you will go and therefore have more chance of experiencing hill tribe villages living a traditional way of life. Hill tribes around Chiang Rai include the Akha, Lisu, Lahu and Karen. Back in town, the Chiang Rai 'Hilltribe Museum' is very interesting to visit to learn more about the culture and history of Thailand's ethnic minorities; including their role in the opium trade of the past.
Like Chiang Mai, the town is home to many Wats (temples) the most famous being Wat Phra Kaew, there's also a must visit night market which sells some delicious and cheap street food. The area itself is much cooler than the rest of Thailand, particularly between November to February – which attracts many visitors. Riding round the town on a bicycle will not have you sweating buckets like many other parts of the country – and it's a great way to explore the town and get a feel for this laid-back Northern City.
Things to do in Chiang Rai
- Visit the White Temple and the Black House: Two very unusual pieces of temple architecture within half an hour of each other, the white temple and black house are known as the 'heaven and hell' of Chiang Rai. Eerie, unusual and bizarre, you can read our article about these must visit temples here.
- Visit art galleries: Chiang Rai is becoming a hang out for artists and there are some great arty cafes and galleries in the town such as 'Prataap Jai' – which is an art gallery, yoga centre, craft shop and cafe popular amongst expats in the town.
- Trekking: Many backpackers will tell you that the trekking in Chiang Rai is better than Chiang Mai as you are able to get out into the remote hills much quicker than you can in the more touristy Chiang Mai. The Akha Hill House is a very popular base amongst trekkers.
Where to go next?
- Mae Salong: Remote Mae Salong in the far north is a landscape of tea plantations, rolling hills and Chinese temples – this place has an almost wild feel to it. The journey from Chiang Rai takes about three hours by bus.
- Phayao: Set around a shimmering lake, this peaceful and picturesque town is an undiscovered gem! Eat seafood around the lake, go fishing even take a swan boat! Around five hours by bus from Chiang Rai.
- Chiang Mai: Chances are you have just come from this backpacker hub – restaurants, cafes, live music, art galleries, temples, treks, festivals, yoga, meditation, bustling markets… it is easy to see why Chiang Mai is an extremely popular place for both travellers and expats.

Sorry, didn't realize the link I had in the original post was bad, I've updated it a few times now. They are painted black and have some curb rash. That being said, they're straight and have held air as long as I've used them (10+ years). Center caps included. Obviously the tires don't come with. I'll trade them plus cash for some 17x8 Anthracite Bullitts if anyone is interested.

Six University of Portland graduates awarded prestigious Fulbright grants to work and study abroad
University of Portland,
named the top producer of Fulbright scholars in the nation
among "master's universities" for the past two years, has announced that six 2012 graduates have been awarded prestigious Fulbright grants to work and study abroad.
Three of the Fulbrights are for English teaching positions in Germany, while the others are for graduate studies in the United Kingdom, research in India, and English teaching in Spain.
The United Kingdom is among the most prestigious and competitive of the Fulbright student programs. Only 45 total Fulbright grants to the United Kingdom are awarded annually from more than 700 applicants nationwide. In the past two years, three students from UP have earned Fulbrights to the United Kingdom.
The research grant to India marks a first, as no student from the University has ever earned a Fulbright to that country.
In 2011, the University of Portland had
10 Fulbright recipients
and for the second consecutive year ranked first nationally among "master's institutions" in a
listing of top producers of Fulbright Awards
for U.S. students according to
The Chronicle of Higher Education
. For 2011-12, University of Portland is the top Fulbright producing college in Oregon regardless of classification, and the fifth-leading producer of Fulbright scholarships among all colleges on the West Coast behind only Stanford University, University of Washington, University of California-Berkeley, and Pomona College.
The University of Portland has been a leader among its peer institutions for several years in producing Fulbright scholars, ranking first nationally in 2011-12, 2010-11, and 2007-08 and second nationally in 2006-07, 2008-09 and 2009-10. Since 2001, students from the University of Portland have
earned 40 Fulbright grants
"For more than a century the University of Portland has been utterly devoted to superb teaching as a primary way of helping young people find and hone their incredible creative talents," said University President Rev. E. William Beauchamp, C.S.C., "and we are very pleased to see our own students now bringing their talents worldwide through the Fulbright program. We really do think of our graduates as agents of hope and creativity in the world, and this is a particularly refreshing and influential way to bring the University's mission into play internationally."
The recipients of the graduate studies position in the United Kingdom is Kurt Berning of Mt. Angel, Ore., a finance and operations technology management double major in the
Pamplin School of Business
. Berning also took part in the University's
Entrepreneur Scholars
program, studied abroad in several continents, and co-founded the innovative non-profit
Global ADE
, which has raised more than $30,000 for education in developing countries.
The recipient of the Indian research grant is Jennifer Brannan of Camas, Wash., a civil engineering major in the
Shiley School of Engineering
who will conduct research on water treatment methods.
The recipient of the Spanish teaching grant is Chris Lew of Eugene, Ore., a biochemistry and Spanish double major in the
College of Arts and Sciences
The recipients of the German teaching grants are: Jason Hortsch of Tigard, Ore., a mathematics major; Jessica Marsh of Sunnyvale, Calif., a psychology and German studies double major; and Bianca McCluskey of Seattle, Wash., a German studies and English double major. All studied in the College of Arts and Sciences.
"These students worked very hard on their applications and are richly deserving of the honor," said John Orr, Assistant to the Provost for Fellowships and Grants. "They will represent UP and the United States extremely well in their year abroad."
The United States Fulbright program began in 1946 after World War II to "assist in the development of friendly, sympathetic and peaceful relations between the United States and other countries of the world" through the exchange of students, scholars and professionals. The program operates in more than 140 countries worldwide.

…She believes she was correct about needing to find a shared purpose with someone. "It's not just that I love being in Brad's company, which obviously I do, but it's that we both roll up our sleeves and take on what we care about in the same way," she says. "I have a lot of respect for him, and he helps me to be better and fight hard for things that I love."She also talks about getting knocked up: "I think one of the life-changing things that he did, one of many, is that I was absolutely never going to get pregnant. I never felt that it was the right thing to do. Now I wouldn't trade that experience for the world. It taught me a lot about life, just the process of it, and now we have three other beautiful children that wouldn't otherwise be here." As for the kids, Zahara and Pax like to slow dance together, imitating Princess Aurora and Prince Phillip from Disney's Sleeping Beauty; newborn Vivienne is "sturdier" and "more demanding" than her brother Knox, who is "very chill" and "loves music," taking after his father. All of the children sleep with Angelina and Brad at some point. "Most nights, someone ends up in our bed," Angelina says. "They've just taken over in there-especially right now, because we want them to feel that the babies aren't special in the room." But: "The kids do knock before entering," she says. "We've at least got that part down. Because Mommy and Daddy need some space." So there you have it. The world's most-wanted it couple are just like any other parents.

Validation of a musculoskeletal model of wheelchair propulsion and its application to minimizing shoulder joint forces. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 18804763 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The majority of manual wheelchair users (MWUs) will inevitably develop some degree of shoulder pain over time. Previous research has suggested a link between the shoulder joint forces associated with the repetition of wheelchair (WC) propulsion and pain. The objective of this work is to present and validate a rigid-body musculoskeletal model of the upper limb for calculation of shoulder joint forces throughout WC propulsion. It is anticipated that when prescribing a WC, the use of a patient-specific computational model will aide in determining an axle placement in which shoulder joint forces are at a minimum, thus potentially delaying or reducing the shoulder pain that so many MWUs experience. During the validation experiment, 3 subjects (2 individuals with paraplegia and one able-bodied individual) propelled a WC at a self-selected speed, during which, kinematics, kinetics, and electromyography (EMG) activity were measured for the contact phase of 10 consecutive push strokes. The measured forces at the push rim and the 3-D propulsion kinematics drove the model, and the computationally calculated muscle activities were compared with the experimental muscle activities, resulting in an average mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.165. Further investigation of the shoulder joint forces throughout propulsion demonstrate the effect of axle placement on the magnitude of these forces. The present work serves to validate the patient-specific upper limb model for use as a prescriptive tool for fitting a subject to their WC. Minimizing joint forces from injury onset may prolong a MWU's pain-free way of life. |

Discovering a tourist had lit a campfire in the dunes at Sandfly Bay right next to a threatened yellow-eyed penguin colony was the last straw for volunteer Pat Dean.
With what had killed at least 56 yellow-eyed penguin adults along Otago Peninsula beaches still a mystery, the possibility a fire could get out of control and whip through the colony angered the Department of Conservation and its volunteers.
''What an idiot, he could have burnt the whole place down ... especially given the rough trot we've had,'' Ms Dean said.
Doc ranger Mel Young said the fire risk was high along the coast especially with a westerly on-shore wind. A fire in a penguin colony further south in 1995 wiped it out.
''Given we've had to take six breeding adults out of there [Sandfly Bay] dead recently, I can't believe it.''
Ms Dean (64), who has volunteered for six summers at Sandfly Bay, said she approached the German tourist when she saw smoke billowing up from the dunes where the public were asked not to go.
''I shot up the dunes yelling for him to put it out. He had his tent up and a sturdy fire going under the shelter of marram grass.''
She kicked sand on the fire and dragged the main log down the beach to the water.
''Any sparks could have set it off and decimated the place.''
The tourist, who had walked to the beach, was urged to leave and catch a ride with a fellow tourist.
Ms Young said it was not the only unthinking behaviour to happen recently, as she had seen surfers go on to the Boulder Beach reserve, which was closed, even after being told by Doc of the ''mass mortality'' event.
Doc biodiversity programme manager Dave Agnew said it was another stress those working with the yellow-eyed penguins did not need after having to rescue underweight chicks and pick up their dead parents.
''The past week we have had so much support from volunteers and the community.''
Tests at the Cawthron Institute to see if a marine biotoxin had caused the deaths had come back negative so environmental testing, including deep water testing in known foraging sites, would take place next week. On the positive side, no dead penguins had been found in the past three days, he said.
Volunteers, Doc staff, the Yellow-eyed Penguin Trust and tour operators would continue to scour the beaches during the next week. Any assistance would be welcomed for those searches or regular volunteering at Sandfly Bay, Mr Agnew said.

My wife and I hunted with Bowker Safaris in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa from May 9th to May 17th, 2009. We arrived at camp in the late afternoon of the 8th and left for home on the morning of the 18th. This was our first safari and first time on the African continent. I guess how you would evaluate a hunting trip or safari depends a lot on who you are, your past hunting experiences and what your expectations were before leaving. The outcome of the trip also depends on how and how well you prepare, so here's a little background on us and what we did to get ready for the hunt... My wife and I are in our mid-50's and grew up in Iowa. I spent just about every free minute of my youth hunting small game, waterfowl and whitetails. I've spent my entire professional career managing meat processing plants of one sort or another. My wife is a registered nurse and has grown to love the outdoors by spending time afield with me. She likes to hunt, but mostly as a reason to be outdoors seeing and learning about wildlife. Our 3 kids are mostly grown up, but are still in college and graduate schools. We spent the last 26 years raising a family and are now at the point in our lives where we can do some of the things we have always wanted to do. I've never really been a trophy hunter. Yes, I have a couple of turkey fans on the wall and mounted duck or two, but getting that 10-point buck has never been a priority for me. I own a bow simply because it gives me a reason to be sitting in the woods for a dozen extra mornings each fall. Ditto for my muzzleloader - it lets spend a few more days hunting after the regular gun season in WI closes. You get the picture. I like to hunt for the sake of hunting - and like most people who have a passion for hunting, the idea of hunting in Africa has always fascinated me. When we decided to hunt in Africa and specifically with the Bowkers, it was on the basis of a recommendation of a friend in our gun club. He had hunted on the continent 3 times and one of those hunts was with Bowker Safaris. Based on what he told us, we had several expectations: To see a lot of different species of game. To hunt on large tracts of land in a fair-chase, ethical manner. To hunt with a PH who would teach us a lot because we were novices. To get opportunities to take nice trophies. To spend time with people that were a lot of fun to be around. Our other major expectation was to have as much fun after the hunt each day as we did in the field: Nice dinners, meeting other hunters, BS around the campfire, etc. As far as preparation was concerned, we really focused on 5 things: Travel and airline requirements. What to pack and what not to pack. The history and geography of S. Africa and the Eastern Cape. Making sure rifles and handloads were as accurate as they could be. Making sure our shooting was as accurate as the rifles (practice) Several weeks before leaving, I discovered this website and learned a lot more by reading posts and asking advice of the hunters and PH's who use it. 'Just cannot say enough good things about how helpful everyone was. After 2 years of preparation and 1-1/2 days of travel (with no real issues - thank goodness), we finally arrived at Bowker Safaris and the fun began! Rather than report on the blow-by-blow of each hunt for each animal, I'm going to tell about the things that were most important to us. If you want to know more about the animals we shot, email me. There are also pictures in my gallery. Here goes: THE CAMP The Bowker ranch (Thorn Kloof) is steeped in Eastern Cape history. Several of the structures date back to the 1840's including the original farmhouse where we stayed. The courtyard, the walls, some of the fences and many of the buildings are built from the native stone and all have the trademark Eastern Cape green metal roofs. All of the grounds and facilities are as modern as you need them to be (en suite) and as period as you want them to be (cannon from the ship their ancestors traveled on in 1820). The lodge is decorated with trophies and is well stocked with after-hunt conversation lubricant! The dining room is similarly decorated and was the site of some of the finest meals we've ever experienced. The fire pit in the center of the courtyard was just the place to hear stories about everyone's hunt and a nightcap. We didn't want to be staying at some spit-and-polish 5-star hotel. We really wanted to be at a truly African hunting camp and that was exactly what we got. Just wonderful! THE BOWKERS The nicest folks that you could ever want to meet. Not only do they run a very good operation, they are genuinely warm, friendly people. Some days, we were the only hunters in the camp and that gave us the chance to really get to know some of the family. Other days, there were 4 other hunters in camp with their PH's and we got to see them interact with other PH's on a professional level. It was clear, they really know their stuff on hunting and outfitting. It seemed like everyone we met had a lot of respect for the entire family, including the staff of trackers, skinners, maids and cooks - it told us clearly that they are very good people. THE RANCH I never really did figure out how big the ranch was or how much total land was in the conservancy (several adjoining ranches working together for hunting and animal management) but it was HUGE. This is a working cattle and sheep ranch and we saw herdsmen on horseback checking stock almost every day. The ranch is a mixture of open grass land, and deep wooded gorges surrounded by mountains on each horizon. If anyone ever tells me again that hunting on a ranch in South Africa is just shooting penned up animals, I'm going to kick them in the ___. No question, on a tract this large, every hunt is a fair chase. THE ANIMALS The least number of game species we saw on any give day was 12. Most days it was a lot more. (This was a huge "WOW" for a couple of people from the Midwest...) In addition to the game, we saw mongoose, marshall eagles, bustards, tortoise, puff adder, etc, etc. The populations of kudu and springbok in the conservancy are so high, they were planning a cull hunt for later in year. THE HUNTING I started the hunt by telling our PH that taking record book trophies was not a priority for us. His reply: "You are going to shoot animals that will make record books." He wasn't kidding. The hunting was spot-and-stalk and every single attempt was a thrill. I don't have time to relate all of them here, but I wrote down every one of them in my journal at the end of each day so I could remember them for the rest of my life. To me, the hunt (spotting and stalking) is 95% of the enjoyment and the kill is 5%. Every expectation that I had for African hunting was exceeded! Two things will be burned into my memory forever: The first was 9 attempts to stalk the same herd boss impala ram over 4 separate days ending in the one you can see in my gallery page. The second was a 1000+ yard stalk for a kudu bull most of which was down a rocky, steep hillside ending in a 45 degree down-angle shot from 273 yards... yes, it's the one posted too. THE PH I had to save the best for near the end - our PH was Denham Bowker. Denham is the younger son of Frank Bowker who we learned was one of the pioneers of professional hunting in the Eastern Cape. I'm not sure where to begin in my description of Denham...He's a great hunter and seemed to be able to spot tons of game where we saw none. He's a modest guy, but tells wonderful stories of his past experiences when asked about them. He has great insight when it comes to people and seemed to know intuitively when we needed help, advice, coaching or encouragement. He treated our Tracker and Skinner with respect and it was clear that they respected him (and not because he was the boss.) Denham "made" our hunt. We just could not wait to get into the truck with each morning. He's also a devoted father and it was treat watching his two young daughters "wrap him around their fingers" each morning at the breakfast table. He did an especially good job of getting my wife to be more at ease on her first hunt for larger game. A SURPRISE One of the days of our safari, we were hunting on a ranch in the conservancy that had been hunted the day prior by the president of Libya (Kadaffi's oldest son). We were about 2 hours into the day and were headed to another hill top for more glassing when one of the ranch hands met up with us and told us that we had to leave right now - Kadaffi Jr had showed back up unannounced! Plus he had brought his 13-man security force with him! Not wanting to be on the wrong end of a stinger missile attack (a lot of folks don't like this SOB), we got the hell out of there in a hurry. SUMMARY OK, I'm sure it is obvious, this safari was way better than I had ever dreamed it could be - for me anyway. Here's what my wife thought about it: On the plane ride from J'burg to Washington, she told me, "When we go back, it needs to be for at least 15 days. 9 days of hunting is just not enough and don't even think about getting the 7mm back, I'm keeping it." browningbbr
Sounds like a great trip & some wonderful trophies to boot!! My next trip to Africa will more than likely be to the Eastern Cape! I will have to keep this place in mind as it sounds like a Class Act!!
Thanks for sharing your great african safari experience bwana. Well done on a wonderful collection of trophies, sharing the african continent with your wife and realising a dream. Cheers,
Thats awsome, As i have learned more about africa the eastern cape seems to be a place everyone needs to visit. Do you have more pics of the camp and the surrounding terrain etc. ?
Camp & Geography Thunder head: Yes, I do have many pictures of both. When I get some time, I'll post a few of them. I'm still trying to figure out how to use some of the tools on this site, so I'll have to spend some time reading the instructions. :headscratch: I shot most of the photos at 10MP, so I have to resize the files...
Notes after the fact... Last night, I was looking at the notes that I kept during this trip - things that I wanted to remember for the next trip - maybe they could be of help to others, so I'll pass them along: STUFF TO TAKE NEXT TIME: I-Pod Touch or other very SMALL wireless device. 'Could have used this during the multiple layovers in airports to stay in touch with the kids, check news, etc. All had Wi-Fi hotspots. My wife could have used it on day trips because cafe's had access too. Bino's for my wife. We only took one pair. Oops. Two pair of LIGHTWEIGHT boots. Took one pair of light and one heavy-soled pair - didn't need the heavy boots/extra weight More cigars, didn't take enough - good for sharing with others and not heavy to carry STUFF NOT TO TAKE NEXT TIME: 2 rifles, not 3 - dumb - my wife's 7mm would have been OK for all the animals I shot and vice versa for her animals. Only one of us was hunting at a time anyway Range finder - the PH's was better than mine, so I didn't use it less bullets - didn't need 2/3rds of them cleaning kit - didn't shoot enough shots to clean guns, can wait until we get home shooting sticks - PH's were better than mine WHAT TO CHANGE: Don't pack locked steel ammo boxes inside of checked clothing bags - TSA busted them open to inspect and ruined the latches - buy a doscocil or pelican case for ammo only and put it through as a checked bag with recessed TSA locks Don't use TSA locks on the gun cases - they are not needed and are too fragile - even the 1/4" thick shackle TSA locks got busted to pieces by the baggage handlers WHAT NOT TO CHANGE: Barnes TSX bullets worked beautifully - use the same handloads for the next trip Use Air2000 for firearms permitting - did a great job and completely avoided hassles at J'burg Use Gracy travel for booking flights - did a great job when SAA cancelled a flight 2 weeks before the trip - Gracy rep met us at J'burg and got us to our next flight and helped with advice Stay with do-all gun cases - they are heavy, but guns and gear arrived in great shape despite the locks being pounded to pieces by baggage handlers - saw another hunter's SKB case smashed through .300 RSAUM was PLENTY of gun for plains game - ditto for Judy's 7mm Rem Mag - take both again - leave .30-06 at home
Bob you are great hunter! You are also lucky to have married the right woman in Judy. I loved your description of the hunt. I'm glad your going for a longer visit next time. You are also correct that Denham is a great Ph! He lived in the U.S. for a while and his ethusiasm for the hunt is unparallel. The pet dogs on the property made you feel at home. And I like Frank a lot too. I'm very happy to have got my bontebok with him.
Thorn Kloof Read your hunt report with great interest. My wife and I hunted with the Bowkers April/May 2008. Your thoughts and comments are right on. What a great group folks to deal and hunt with. We found "zero" surprises. I had Meyrick Bowker for my PH, but spoke with Denham every day also. We all swapped stories around the fire every night over beer and everyone's favorite adult beverage. They and their father Frank are good hunters, and work to please their client. All gentleman. Jenny, their mom, runs the home front and all goes smoothly. I took 10 animals on my 10 day hunt. We were in Africa for 21 days, and have decided that was about 7 days too short! LOL! Hunting was fantastic, ranch accomodations excellent, and hospitality "first cabin". Sort of got used to that daily laundry service. The Bowkers are pretty easy to recommend for a hunt. Did you carve your name into the bar? Larry Mikelsen
Larry - I was tempted to carve our names into the bar, but saw the names of my buddy and his (ex)wife, so I figured it was bad luck! Do you remember seeing "Fred and Wende"? That's them. My wife Judy (who knows Fred) must have picked up on the same thought because one evening she said, "...and now it's Fred and Heidi..." That was the same evening she was looking at the rug in the lodge and told me "You have to shoot a zebra! I want a rug just like this one." What a good wife. I'd hate to lose a hunting partner, so no bar carving for me. For everyone else - if you are planning to take your wife along on the hunt, I highly recommend Bowker Safaris. Regardless of her experience level, the Bowkers will do a great job of making her feel comfortable as a hunter in the field and welcome in the camp.

Islam for fire fighters - A case study on an education program for emergency services
Fozdar, F. and Roberts, K. (2010) Islam for fire fighters - A case study on an education program for emergency services. Australian Journal of Emergency Management, 25 (1). pp. 47-53.
*Open access, no subscription required
Emergency services are increasingly recognizing the need to engage with the diverse communities they serve. In an emergency management context, reciprocal trust based on awareness and understanding is essential during times of natural disasters, emergencies and other catastrophic events. This paper describes an initiative by the Fire and Emergency Services Authority of Western Australia to build its capacity to deal appropriately with an increasingly visible, and marginalized, minority the Muslim community through a program designed to raise awareness and understanding among its staff. Despite some initial internal reticence and broader community criticism, outcomes included raised levels of awareness among FESA members of diversity issues generally, improved knowledge of Islam and related cultural issues, and a number of strong partnerships leading to further community development activities. This paper describes the social, political and organizational context in which the training was developed, and reflects on the personal experiences and lessons learnt by the program developers.

- 20MHz Bandwidth
- 75V/μs Slew Rate
- Drives ±10V into 75Ω
- 5mA Quiescent Current
- Drives Capacitive Loads > 1μF
- Current and Thermal Limit
- Operates from Single Supply ≥ 4.5V
- Very Low Distortion Operation
- Available in 8-Pin miniDIP, Plastic TO-220 and Tiny 3mm × 3mm × 0.75mm 8-Pin DFN Packages
Typical Application
The LT®1010 is a fast, unity-gain buffer that can increase the output capability of existing IC op amps by more than an order of magnitude. This easy-to-use part makes fast amplifiers less sensitive to capacitive loading and reduces thermal feedback in precision DC amplifiers.
Designed to be incorporated within the feedback loop, the buffer can isolate almost any reactive load. Speed can be improved with a single external resistor. Internal operating currents are essentially unaffected by the supply voltage range. Single supply operation is also practical.
This monolithic IC is supplied in 8-pin miniDIP, plastic TO-220 and 8-pin DFN packages. The low thermal resistance power package is an aid in reducing operating junction temperatures.

ACI to expand Hayes facilities later this year
ACI, a Hayes business that specializes in firefighting equipment sales and service, plans to expand its facility later this year.
Brook Thomas, vice president of the business, said ACI is now based in a 3,000-square-foot building on Route 17, and will double in size by this fall.
The extra space will allow ACI to carry more items and provide extra space for repairing firefighting equipment and the company's expanded line of fire extinguisher sales and service.
From its early business of repairs, the company expanded to sell a wide assortment of firefighting equipment, including the air packs, turnout gear like coats and helmets, and apparatus including nozzles and related equipment, Thomas said.
Addressing safety, he said that businesses should check their fire extinguishers monthly, and routine service should be done at six- and 12-year intervals. Homeowners should also get into the habit of regularly checking their fire extinguishers and having them serviced periodically.

The Originals
The Originals Quotes: Season 1, Episode 17 — "Sit, Stay, Roll Over"
With Rebekah (Claire Holt) officially off The Originals, we've lost one of our favorite sass machines. Homegirl could churn out a one-liner with the best of them (read: Klaus), but now we'll have to make due without her. In tonight's episode — Season 1, Episode 17 ("Moon Over Bourbon Street") — Elijah (Daniel Gillies) and Klaus (Joseph Morgan) were throwing all of their resources into brokering a peace with the factions of New Orleans, be they supernatural or human. When bringing everyone to a table to bust out a treaty, Klaus suggested that Elijah throw a huge party. This episode saw the tensions between the factions at their most complicated, with all of them interacting with each other in tight quarters.
Get out, Genevieve!
Elijah: "I trust you can find your clothing…and the door."
Fight Club
Hayley: "Shouldn't you be out there playing Fight Club with the rest of the frat boys."
Jackson: "That's just for pecking order — they already know who's the alpha."
Good boy!
Hayley: "And until then, I should tell them what? Sit, stay, roll over?"
Girl Fight
Cami: "I saw the light in the courtyard and took the chance that…you weren't with a half-naked psycho witch. Seems I gambled and lost."
Genevieve: "10 minutes ago I was fully naked."
Cami: "Oh, then you served your purpose. Don't let me hold you up."
Feeling blue?
Klaus: "Not a fan of cerulean blue?"
You know the drill.
Jackson: "So is this where the great Klaus Mikaelson says something poignant and snaps my neck?"
Dogs = loyal
Klaus: "Vampire destroy life to survive, witches are only as powerful as their dead, but the werewolves have thrived because their strength comes from family unity."
That's adorable!
Oliver: "You look, um —"
Davina: "Nervous, out of place, short in this dress?"
Oliver: "I was gonna say pretty."
Grandma Hayley
Hayley: "I'm not going to sit in a rocking chair and knit booties, or haven't you figured that out?"
Happy hour
Cami: "Julep? Minus the sugar and the mint." What do you think about the quotes from tonight's episode? Hit the comments and let us know!
