From a low hillock in a vast plain, the entrance to the Noil Ruins is as unobtrusive as it is a gateway to wonder…
Through mud and hate and rain,
Through blood and rot and pain,
The bell tolls for victim next,
To save Saint Ithiel, the Ashfeather Hex
-Nursery Rhyme
The Lost City of Paldor was never really lost. Everyone knew where it was. However, nobody could get to it. Unknown to most, recent Land-Waves (Earthquakes) have opened up the paths to Paldor.
Nothing but snow, nothing but ice and snow. I fear we will all loose our minds out here. Even the caves have frozen into ice…
from the collected notes of an unknown explorer.
It's cold up this high, the air is thin and hard to breath. We should find the entrance in the next day or so. I can't eait to find it, I can't wait to be out of this wind…
Water drips from the ceiling in a steady rhythm. Water refracts torchlight, illuminating the depths of the pools with reflected torchlight.
Many traps are not designed to kill or maim, but more to disgust or annoy, or even to put a smile on the victim's face… this is a scroll of such traps.
Traps working the good old mechanical way, through levers, ropes and switches. Included are also the beloved pit traps.
Magical implements that trap the unwary.
Traps for the outside. It is not only the dungeons and ancient tombs that are dangerous.
A collection of traps that are located on doors, doorways and portals of all kinds.
The Pelezians, or "clay people" were strongly bound to the earth. In fertile plains and valleys they lived their happy existence, peaceful, yet ever on their guard. Many nomadic attackers they defeated, until a different enemy came; their advanced technology and weapons (and magic) were beyond the skills of defenders. One-by-one their settlements fell, until the clay people were not more.
To the greedy students of the past, their heritage is but not forgotten.
Over three hundred years after the destruction of Linnarson, the ruins of Linnarson remain deserted; the warped magical environs inhabited only by the twisted and bizarre creatures that have been created. Amongst it all, however, the Senior Masters remain, continuing their eternal pursuit of knowledge. (UPDATE IN PROGRESS.)
Graves of a small, little known folk, exotic as dangerous.
The simple graves of a folk long gone, these are still favoured by graverobbers.
Maranesh, God of Magic, wearied of the multitudes of humans who came to him, clamouring to be taught the secrets of magic. So it was that he devised a test that would separate the worthy from the unworthy.
Traps gathered from the remains of a dead site. Honour and enjoy what ingenious traps were created by people unknown…
You have all chosen to follow the Path of the Philosopher. Not for you the warrior Path of the Battlemage, fighter for justice, nor the Path of the Healer, worthy though it may be to heal the sick. Equally you have rejected the Path of the Artificer, the tinkerers, who work on devices and techniques, as well as the Path of the Loremaster, who merely delves and catalogues the knowledge of the past. No, you have decided upon the Path of the Philosopher, the highest calling, the way of true enquiry, where you will probe the realms of higher mathematics, ponder the meaning of truth itself and tease out the deepest secrets of nature and the workings of the world.
There are many organizations that deal with dungeons, ruins, and other places of mystery. This codex is about those organizations.
Glyph and Pylon units are a set of magical mechanism used to create complicated series of puzzling traps.
Swords form a bond to their wielder. A symbol on the grip that is absorbed through the user's hand and appears on the back of the hand. Maybe only visible to them or others that have the abilities. Could give unique powers depending on when it happened and what they did to get it. It takes a specially made sword that only few can receive and made by a certain race. Then they must do something really heroic to unleash the swords power. Once unleashed it is theirs till they die then the sword goes dormant again till another accomplishes another feat.

For the Troy Daily News
The Covington Board of Education chose to approve the contract put forth by the Covington Education Association, or CEA, Thursday night during their meeting.
The only member of the school board who chose not to vote for it, Brad Hall, stated that his opposition came because of some wording that he felt violated a teacher's freedom of choice.
"In one part of the contract, there is a part about teachers having an amount of money taken from their paycheck, as a fee, that goes to a particular organization the teacher may or may not support," Hall said.
Hall states that the wording goes against his personal value system that supports freedom of choice.
"I have nothing against the teachers, increasing salaries or otherwise enabling them to do the best job for our kids, but I can't support that language," Hall said.
Marti Cain, president of the CEA, stated that the negotiations team enjoyed working with the Board's team and called the process very amicable.
"The CEA is extremely happy with the outcome of the contract," Cain said. "It has been a long time since we ratified a three-year contract, and we look forward to working with the board of education in helping the students of Covington become productive citizens."
Prior to the ratification, board member W. Dean Pond chose to present Superintendent David Larson with a plaque for his service. Larson is leaving the Covington to go to Piqua after five years with the school board and thanked everyone for making his time with the district good.
In an addendum to the agenda, Larson and the board approved the hiring of six new teachers. Matthew Gibbins is now the physical education teacher at the elementary school, Kimberly Dunn is a seventh/eighth grade science teacher, and Heidi Anderson is the business/technology teacher at the high school. Additionally, Julie Scott has been hired as an eighth grade language arts teacher, Darleen Steen is the elementary and middle school art teacher, and Julie Scott is the invention specialist for kindergarten through second grade.
Resigning from the district is Heidi Anderson as high school secretary and Sharon Root as middle school librarian. Middle school principal Jason Ahrens resigned to accept a position in Versailles, and Ken Miller will resign his position as central office administrator to begin his role as superintendent.
School district nurse Susie Hileman gave a presentation regarding the issue of lice in schools and the national policy. Currently, the national "No Nit" school policy states that if a child has lice eggs, known as nits, then they need to be sent home until the problem is taken care of and they can safely return to school.
Hileman says that research from the Centers for Disease Control has found that nits are not contagious and oftentimes are pulled out by the child if they are running their fingers through their hair. The spreading of lice is fairly rare, so the current national policy contributes to 12 to 24 school days lost annually from children being sent home. Hileman and the board discussed changing school lice policy to reduce the levels of absenteeism caused by nits.
Annexation was approved by the board, which allows the school to annex land that belongs to the district, which consists of 7.2 acres are located in Newberry Township.
The board approved of a resolution to proceed with the proposition of a renewal income tax. It was determined at last month's meeting that at least $1,192,178 is needed to keep the school district running and to cover expenses. Voters will get to decide on whether the renewal

PETALING JAYA: Former newscaster Robert Lam passed away Saturday after being stricken with skin cancer for more than three months.
Lam, 64, passed away at 5.15am at the Universiti Malaya Medical Centre.
Lam's brother-in-law, Robert Lau, 55, said Lam dedicated the last ten years of his life to charitable and church works.
"Not many people saw this side of Robert because they know him as a well-known newscaster and emcee. In the later years of his life, he was involved in church ministry works and helped to care for the old and infirm at an old folks home," he said when contacted.
Lam leaves behind his wife, Jane Chong Yang Chun, 58, son Mark, 23 and daughter Alexis, 22.
The wake will be at the First Baptist Church in Jalan Gasing on Sunday from 8.30pm. The funeral service will be held on Monday at 10am before the cortege leaves for burial at the Lutheran Garden in Shah Alam.
Lam had served three years from 1965 as a RMAF pilot flying the Pioneer aircraft after being commissioned from the Royal Military College's Intake Six a year earlier.
He then left for England to pursue a career in insurance management and public speaking.
Lam later returned home to read prime-time news for 23 years on TV3, RTM and TV8 Metrovision.
He left the media and turned to emceeing at functions before setting up the Robert Lam English Language Centre in Subang Jaya with nationwide branches.
Lam, with the Kingdom Christian Fellowship, had also set up the Faith International Training School in Subang Jaya to teach Bible studies.

Tickle Kitty Founder Dr. Sadie Allison Celebrates The Sale of Her Two Millionth Self-Published Book
Just in Time for Valentine's Day, Renowned Pleasure Coach To Distribute 10,000 Free Books as a Way to Give Back
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Just a few years ago, the Wall Street Journal(1) profiled several self-published authors whose novels and collections of books sold between 400,000 and 1.7 million copies, garnering book deals with traditional publishers due to their hit status. Dr. Sadie Allison, founder and CEO of Tickle Kitty and a popular pleasure coach, found her own unique path to publishing success and recently sold her two millionth book, one of the greatest achievements ever made by an independent publisher. To mark this extraordinary milestone and thank her legions of fans, Dr. Sadie today announced that Tickle Kitty is giving away 10,000 how-to sex-help books, just in time for Valentine's Day.
"On one hand, it's amazing that Tickle Kitty Press has sold two million books, considering they are a small operation," said Edward Ash-Milby, Buyer for Barnes & Noble. "And yet, when you meet Dr. Sadie Allison, you understand quickly what a savvy business person she is and marvel at the execution of her publishing program. She has a strong eye for packaging and design, knows her marketplace well and has a sense of fun in her writing. Tickle Kitty Press is a small press success story that I've enjoyed watching evolve over the past decade, and I have no doubt that they will continue to publish great books and produce excellent content for years to come."
Dr. Sadie's life-long passion to help others overcome their shame, fear and lack of knowledge around sex and pleasure led to her start in self-publishing in an unlikely way: by creating sex-help pamphlets to give away for free. This beginning ultimately led to an incredibly successful career as a writer and publisher, despite her lack of formal training in journalism or publishing. "I published my first sex-help book to inspire positive change in peoples' lives," observes Dr. Sadie. "My mission is to empower others to embrace their full sexual potential, and clear out old inhibitions by providing the accurate information they need for more frequent, more intimate, more uninhibited sexual pleasure."
Fearless giving, a theme throughout Dr. Sadie's life, is having the deep desire to give others joy so passionately, that you'll do it at all costs. This concept formed the basis of her recent San Francisco TEDx talk. Knowing that when people are sexually satisfied, they live happier, healthier and fuller lives, Dr. Sadie devoted her life and career to coach others on the art of giving and receiving pleasure. "When we reached the two million books sold milestone, I wanted to give back. And by giving away 10,000 books now, I feel like I've come full circle," Dr. Sadie shares. "Giving fearlessly is a way of life for me, and this free book giveaway is the latest expression of that."
Dr. Sadie's bestselling titles include Tickle His Pickle, Ride 'Em Cowgirl!, Tickle Your Fancy, Tickle My Tush and Toygasms! All were honored with the prestigious Independent Publisher's "Best Sexuality Book" award. Unlike overly clinical sex-help titles, reading Dr. Sadie's books feels like getting invaluable, honest advice from a trusted friend–topped with a dash of humor. Her fun, personable style and the books' tasteful illustrations lead you to discover arousing new techniques, and the best sex you've ever experienced. Countless readers have credited Dr. Sadie's books with saving marriages, revitalizing relationships and changing lives, generating incredible fan loyalty. To receive one of Dr. Sadie's books free during the Valentine's Day giveaway, log on to www.TickleKitty.com and choose your book on the free giveaway page. (A nominal shipping & handling fee will apply.)
Gifted with the ability to speak about this sensitive topic with empathy, accuracy and humor–Dr. Sadie puts individuals and couples at ease as they learn about their own sexual pleasure. Her approachability is a natural progression stemming from her high-school years spent as a sex-positive confidant to friends who were struggling with sexual issues. "I'm grateful to be in a position to share insights and techniques that empower men and women to embrace a deeper enjoyment of their sexuality. By following my passion, embracing my gift to help others, and giving it away fearlessly to the world, I've been able to find success on a wildly improbable path. Everyone has a gift to share, and I believe that by sharing it, we fulfill our own dreams while enhance others' lives at the same time. And isn't that what life's all about?"
Dr. Sadie also runs a modern online pleasure boutique, TickleKitty.com, which offers high-end adult toys, custom pleasure kits, her signature premium personal lubricants, Slippery Kitty, and the ever-popular Sex Confessions feature. Tickle Kitty Press is developing an exciting new series of books, which will be available across all platforms in 2014. To find out more about Dr. Sadie's books, take advantage of the Valentine's Day book giveaway and view the unique Tickle Kitty line of pleasure products, please visit www.TickleKitty.com.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Tablet Plus
Buenos Aires cE, Design Hotel
Marcelo T. Alvear 1695, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Neighborhood: Recoleta
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Argentina's economy, after famously melting down at the turn of this century, seems to have rebounded handsomely, at least if the spate of recent hotel openings is any indication — forget about inflation or GDP, the Boutique Hotel Index is the only measure that matters to us. Suddenly it seems that around every corner in Buenos Aires there's a stylish new hotel going up, and good ones too — and near the top of the class of 2006 is the ultra-modern Buenos Aires cE, Design Hotel.
The building, by the porteño architect Ernesto Goransky, stands in sharp contrast to its location on the Parisian-looking Rodriguez Peña Square, in Buenos Aires's Barrio Norte. Rooms go from compact and efficient to large and lofty, but all look out through full-length windows and feature flat-screen televisions that pivot for universal viewing. What they may lack in coziness they make up for in visual impact, and the views from the balcony suites are particularly extraordinary.
There's a small bar and café, and not much more, but no matter — in today's Buenos Aires, no hotel is an island. Buenos Aires cE, Design Hotel's location is a highly desirable one, whether for nightlife, culture, or shopping — the latter, along the Avenida Santa Fe, is some of the best in the city.
How to get there:
Buenos Aires cE, Design Hotel is approximately a 45 minute drive from Ezeiza International Airport, 15 minutes from the Domestic Airport, and 15 minutes from La Boca and Palermo Hollywood. Please contact firstname.lastname@example.com to arrange airport transfers.

The location is great and the staff very friendly and helpful. The rooms are minimalist modern and comfortable. We needed to stay another night and it was not a problem. We had to change rooms but the upgraded us to a mini-suite and moved our bags while we were out. Overall couldn't have picked a better place to stay in BA, especially for the price.

As many folk have moved to many megapixel images you see the document sizes leap in size. BUT THAT'S NOT YOUR ISSUE.
It appears you are seeing a limitation in this app. To conserve disk space I suggest you save that in a compressed folder. XP supports that so here's a link.

The Statue of Liberty, a gift to the United States by France, will soon be upstaged by an equestrian statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, off the coast of Mumbai. The height of the latest tribute to the Maratha king will be 309 feet, making it taller than the Statue of Liberty, which is 305 feet from the pedestal to the top of the flaming torch.

The government has approved Rs. 50 crore for the memorial in 2009-10 and budgeted Rs. 300 crore more the next year. There will be a museum on the Maratha king.
The government had announced a worldwide competition to create a design for the memorial and had decided to give away prizes to the top three ideas. Eleven firms submitted designs.

Hot pepper
Capsicum annuum
Fiery hot peppers are easy plants to grow in great variety. There are many different types, each bearing fruits with varying degrees of heat. The plants take up little space, so plant several and decide which you like best. (They're excellent in containers -- and attractive!)
Ancho or poblano peppers are mildly hot and often used for stuffing. Jalapenos are several times hotter. Tabasco peppers are up to 50 times hotter, and habaneros are 100 times hotter.
While the variety of hot pepper is the biggest determinant of spiciness, weather and stress also play roles. Plants suffering from water or nutrient stress produce fewer but hotter peppers. Cool, cloudy weather makes peppers less hot.

how to grow Hot pepper
Harvest Tips
Use a sharp knife or pruning shears to cut off fruits when they are full size or later when they are fully colored. Wear gloves when harvesting and handling hot peppers to protect your hands and face from capsaicin, the chemical compound that makes peppers hot. Avoid touching your face (especially your eyes) when handling hot peppers.

Sep 6, 2013
LEXINGTON, KY -- The University of Louisville women's soccer team fell to Kentucky 2-0 on Friday evening at the UK Soccer Stadium. Louisville falls to 1-2-1 on the season while UK improves to 3-1-1.
"I thought that we played really well in the first 25 minutes," said head coach Karen Ferguson-Dayes. "We had some chances but just couldn't put one away. I think they took some of our rhythm away in the last 20 minutes of the first half. I thought the difference in the game was Stuart Pope, I thought she was exceptional in the midfield. She got that half chance and was able to score it. We had similar chances but couldn't finish them. I am proud of the way we played, I thought it was a good soccer game. I thought it was a high level game for the state to see. We just need to keep pushing forward and put together more significant minutes ultimately win games."
The Cardinals were able to hold the majority of possession in the first half. Senior Charlyn Corral had a shot on goal in the first minute but UK keeper Kayla King made the save. Corral had another shot blocked in the box during the eighth minute.
Senior Christine Exeter took a corner kick and headed the ball in but the keeper collected it for the save in the 10th minute. Coral had another shot go just wide in the 18th minute. UK had its best shot of the half when Caitlin Landis shot the ball just inside the box but Cardinal keeper Paige Brown made the save. In the 36th minute Kari Weinland had a chance as well but was collected by the keeper. UK had a series of corner kicks in the 37th minute, but were unable to finish. In the final minute of the first period, UK also had a shot go just wide.
Corral had a chance early in the first minute of the second period but the keeper was able to deflect the ball out. In the 51st minute the Wildcats' Stuart Pope sent a shot to the top right of the net off a cross from Courtney Raetzman to put UK up 1-0.
Kentucky continued to put pressure on the Cardinal defense in the second half. Brown made a diving save in the 56th minute. She also made saves in the 64th and 67th minute. In the 77th minute Corral had a free kick on the far left side of the field, she bent it into the left corner of the goal but the keeper punched it out. Louisville then had three straight possessions, two corners and a throw in, but couldn't connect.
In the 80th minute Exeter took a header just inside the penalty box but the UK keeper grabbed the shot. Exeter got free inside the box for a shot but it was blocked by a Kentucky defender. The Wildcats were awarded a penalty kick in the 84th minute and Arin Gilliand took the shot and Brown got a hand on it but was unable to stop it, giving UK a 2-0 lead. Exeter had a header that was knocked out of the goal by a UK defender in the 87th minute of play.
Louisville finished the game with a 13-11 shot advantage. Both teams finished with seven corner kicks. Brown finished with four saves while King finished with four saves as well.
The Cardinals will be back in action on Sunday as they travel to Miami (OH) for a 1:00 p.m. match.
