A charity has put out a DIY SOS-style appeal to build a therapy unit.
The Blackthorn Trust in St Andrew's Road, Maidstone, is calling on local businesses to donate funds, time or skills towards its aim of the room in its grounds.
It will be used to help people with long term physical and mental health conditions rebuild their lives.
It has already raised almost half the £75,000 needed to create the project.
Donations totalling £35,000 have come from Maidstone council and the Cobtree Foundation, while members of 36 Engineers and Futures for Heroes, a charity supporting ex-servicemen, recently provided the manpower to demolish the dilapidated building being replaced.
The previous therapy room could only fit five patients at a time, while its replacement, which will have stained glass, will have space for 20.
Emma Halpin, Blackthorn community fundraiser, said: "It is one of our most important rooms as it is seated, calm and quiet. For many patients it provides and environment to gently recover from trauma and learn skills to produce items that are sold to raise money for Blackthorn's social enterprise.
"The charity supports local people with conditions such as pain and depression gain control of their illness and take hold of their life again."
An order has already been placed for the steel frame for the new unit.
Jan Prior, Blackthorn chief executive said: "This new building will enable us to support more local people, including ex-servicemen to recover and return to work.
"We're now looking for the support of local experts to help us turn our plans into reality."
If you can help, contact Emma Halpin on 01622 7222219 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

With the closing of the land deal, the possibility of a new NFL stadium in Carson, California, becomes "even more probable than ever before."
Rampage now have a new NHL parent team.
The three NFL teams proposing stadiums in Los Angeles are scheduled to present their plans next week to the six NFL owners in charge of the process, the latest and most significant step yet if the sport is to return to the California city after a more than two-decade absence.
Denver's sports teams tend to flourish, despite a new study that finds the Mile High City's teams would logically need nearly double the amount of total personal income to thrive.
For the first time since the Colorado Avalanche moved to Denver in 1995, there will be no post-season action this year at Pepsi Center by either the NHL's Avalanche or the NBA's Denver Nuggets.
The Colorado billionaire won't pick up the ball to keep a deal going with the city of Los Angeles.
This likely will be the first spring without a playoff game in the Denver arena.
A pair of reports commissioned by Philip Anschutz's AEG question the safety of a Los Angeles-area NFL stadium project proposed by Denver sports magnate Stan Kroenke.
One wealthy Coloradan stands out on Forbes' latest ranking of the world's billionaires, but several others also appear on the list.
Kroenke and his partners in the venture intend to build an 80,000-seat stadium.
The San Diego Chargers and Oakland Raiders are working on a deal to build a shared stadium in Los Angeles.
Stan Kroenke's development proposal to build an 80,000 seat NFL stadium in Los Angeles advanced Thursday when elected officials paved the way for the plan to go before a local vote.
Jones says Stan Kroenke — who also owns several Denver teams and venues — should be allowed to move the NFL team to Los Angeles.
Amid the threat of team owner Stan Kroenke possibly moving the St. Louis Rams to Los Angeles, St. Louis' mayor vowed Friday to move forward with a plan to build a 64,000-seat, $900 million NFL stadium in the Missouri city by 2020.
Stan Kroenke's Denver-based sports and entertainment business has created a new division to oversee its growing roster of outdoor-oriented media properties, Outdoor Channel and Sportsman Channel.

Tiny Little Fractures
Disclaimer: I hereby disclaim ownership of Harry Potter. Title belongs to Snow Patrol. And that is that.
Summary: And she kept thinking back to when he'd always scowled at her, or hissed at her, but once upon a time she'd heard him say, turning away, that she shouldn't hide. Because hiding never hid you from the world. And the world just kept on living.
A/N: Written for the 3 Keys Fic Exchange over at livejournal (topic: All Hallow's Eve). Also, I stole the Alice idea from one of my other fics, Where Does the Good Go?, because I suck at thinking up costumes. One-shot.

Honeydukes was practically sealed up with gigantic cobwebs and hissing spiders. Tiny bats hung on the ceiling and there was something in the corner that cackled obnoxiously loud. Worse, it was jam-packed with students trying to get in and out. Hermione was one of them, caught in a tight squeeze between two Hufflepuffs. She felt someone ram their elbow into her back, and she flinched, yelling out loud.
"It isn't my fault, damn it!" she yelled, turning her face a little, her face now a little flushed. It was snowing outside – the streets were covered in white. But with almost everybody in an overstuffed sweets shop in heavy coats, not too mention breathing a little too hard, it was enough to make anyone sweat.
"Sorry!" she heard Ron say. "It was me. I didn't mean it. It's just that" – then she heard grunting. Then there was a blinding pain on the back of her neck. "Oh, fuck! Hermione! I'm so sorry about that! I didn't mean it–"
She was clutching the nape of her neck. "Shit, Ron!"
"I'm sorry!" he whined behind her. His mouth was nearly right on the top of her head. They were that close. "Fuck! Where the hell is Harry, anyway? Maybe we should just make one person get all the candy so the three of us wouldn't have to—"
Just then, she felt someone shove against her. The crowd yelled out curses as Hermione almost fell to the ground, but Ron had caught her shoulder – which hurt like hell, by the way. She looked up, glaring, and found someone next to her. He reeked of peppermint and spice.
"Well, Granger, you do know that in order to participate in an orgy your clothes have to be off," he smirked in her ear. She shoved her elbow into his rib, but he caught it, and she grunted, pulling, trying to get her arm back. He wouldn't let go.
"Fuck you, you overgrown rat," she hissed.
"Oh, I love it when you speak dirty to me," he smirked at her.
"Malfoy," Ron said dryly. "Leave us alone, will you? This is already as bad enough as it is. Bother us some other time. I know how much you hate your other hobbies."
He scowled, the light catching in his ash-blond hair and nearly blinding her.
"Tell your mom I said Hi, Weasley. We had a good time last night."
Hermione felt Ron lunge toward Malfoy, which meant he literally pushed his entire six foot two (and still growing) frame against her back, and she nearly fell forwards again. But yet again this was prevented – there was an arm keeping her in place. She looked down and saw Malfoy's arm stretched out in front of her, acting like a restraint, a protection from brutally falling to the floor and getting trampled on by the masses of overeager kids behind her. A look flashed on her face for a quick second, even though she knew nobody else could see what he had done, before he'd retrieved his arm.
Ron was breathing hard against Hermione's ear.
"Fuck you, man! I don't make jokes about your mom!"
"That's because you can't. My mom's dead."
Draco looked somber at this, and Hermione couldn't help but smile and shake her head.
"Get out of here, Malfoy. Go buy yourself a brand new diamond ring or something. Just leave us alone," she said, but she was still laughing.
He shrugged. "Fine. Too many bitches in here, anyway." And before he left, she felt something drop into her pocket. He brushed against her shoulder, and she felt a little spark of warmth jump from his bone to hers, before he squeezed back out of the crowd, the people groaning and murmuring behind him. Hermione tried to crane her neck to look behind her, but knew that was impossible, so she could only assume that he glared at the people moaning to shut them up.
Hermione told Ron to calm down, and he did, and while he busied himself with that, she slid her hand in her coat pocket and felt for what it was. It was a piece of candy.
She didn't dare take it out lest Ron saw it and started to talk shit again, so she just drew out her hand, patted her pocket and was finally relieved when the crowd started to move again. They took this as a chance to slip through (which took some very careful and slick maneuvering, but they did it) and they finally found Harry by the Risk Mints, mints that were particularly risky to take simply because each one was different and either made you lose your mind, do something horrible, or just… well, there were a million other things, but that was the basic concept.
"We should get out of here," Harry told them when they finally came around. "It's a madhouse."
"Yeah, see, we really didn't notice when we were getting dry humped by five people at the same time when we were coming in," Hermione dryly quipped.
"Right, right. I'm sorry for making you come in here. Stop whining, will you? It's Halloween in a few days. Cheer up."
Hermione nodded, rolling her eyes, but looked around and saw that Ron had disappeared. "Ron's gone off again. It's your turn this time. I'm getting out of here. It's getting hard to breathe," she said, watching a first year go by, apparently a Muggle-born, because he had his inhaler out, and they heard its contents move as he shook it up and down in the air, his face pink and glistening with sweat.
"All right then," Harry told her, looking at the candy jars again. "We'll see you later." The gummy worms were still trying to crawl out, almost tapping at the glass like fingers. "You sure you don't want anything?"
Hermione remembered the piece of candy in her pocket. "Nope. Thanks anyway. I'll see you later. Be safe."
It took her almost ten minutes trying to get out of the damn candy store alone, and when she finally did, all she did was stand there, in the cold, breathing in the fresh air. She'd never appreciated personal space as much as she did then.
"Thank you, God," she exaggerated, looking out. It'd gotten dark fast, and now the frosted streetlamps were all lit up. It was lightly snowing again, and she watched a few people go by. Not quite feeling up to returning to Hogwarts yet, she started towards the pub – but not really aiming to get inside and have a drink. Didn't really feel like it today – it was nice out here, tingly and frosty. Definitely gave her the vibe that the holidays were nearing them yet again. She started to think about how time seemed to fly by when they were preoccupied with other things. Their last Halloween at Hogwarts would be coming soon, followed by their last Christmas. They still had half of the year left to go, but she knew that would pass just as fast. Before they knew it, it would be graduation, and the rest of their lives they'd anticipated since as far back as she could remember, would begin.
After about seven minutes of walking by herself, she suddenly felt a presence next to her and didn't even bother to look up before she found herself smiling.
"Last time I heard, you had mail," she heard him say. It was a playful tone this time – something he didn't really engage in, but it was obvious he let loose when he was around her. She looked up, and his blond hair was almost as light as the snow. His cheeks were a little pink from the cold.
"Yeah," she laughed. "Yeah, I heard that, too."
"Well, whip it out then," he told her. "Let's see."
Hermione reached into her pocket and took out the piece of candy he'd secretly dropped in her pocket earlier, in Honeydukes. It was actually a candy ring, and she looked at it. It looked dazzling as they walked beneath a lamppost, and she slipped it on. She held it out for him to see.
"Well, there. How does it look?"
He peered at it. He grabbed her hand and brought it to his face. "You know what? You've got hairy knuckles."
She snatched her hand back, laughing. "Fuck you, man."
He was still smiling. "It looks good."
They just walked for a while, not saying anything, before he spoke up again.
"What are you doing on Thursday?"
She looked up at him. "The party, remember? The Halloween party?"
He scoffed. "Don't tell me you're going to that boring thing. They've got that shitty band playing, and all the professors are going to be patrolling around after what happened last time–"
"Nobody said you had to go," she pointed out to him, as smartass-y as she could, because she knew that charmed the pants off of him.
He scowled at her.
Hah. Just kidding.
"I know, Granger. But I don't want you to go, either."
She was surprised. "Why not? You think I'm going to get drunk and go off and do something reckless with someone?" She started to smile at his sudden possessiveness, enjoying the way he seemed to near his body towards her as they walked farther on. "You're thinking I might forget about you just because you're not there, is that it?"
He shrugged, but she could tell it wasn't like those other shrugs he pushed her way before. "More or less." She snorted. "I just mean, I want us to go somewhere. Alone."
She looked up at him again, her thumb playing the candy ring on her finger, moving it around. "Where?"
He smirked at her, the haughty kind that she hated. "You really think I'd give all my secrets away? Stop being so stupid, Granger." He motioned to her face. "Your face might be stuck that way forever."
She sighed. Her thumb left the ring alone. "Well, I promised Harry and Ron – I can't just bail on them like that."
His narrow face drew down into a glower. Her friends were always a sore subject for them to discuss. Sure, the hostility had lessened ever since the war, but it did not change the fact that they were still enemies. Not even the fact that she and Draco had began to engage privately. If everything had been as dandy as those fairytales said, they would find no need for dropping candy rings secretly in coat pockets or covert meetings. The end of the war still wouldn't change the reaction in the public when they learned about her and Draco's "relationship." They were too smart not to know that.
"Well, Potter and Weasley aren't your boyfriends, are they?"
Hermione stiffened. She hated the tone of his voice – it sort of stung her inside. "Stop that, Draco. I thought we agreed—"
He scoffed, nodding his head, a frustrated expression on his face. "Oh, right. We aren't official. We're just trying it out, like this is some kind of shoe you see at a shop, or a coat. If it doesn't fit you'll put it back on the rack and leave. Tell me, Granger, when are you going to be ready to commit to something big and scary instead of settling for lame-as-fuck liaisons like this, huh?"
Her eyebrows furrowed angrily as she looked at his face, her chest clenching inside of her body. She felt shock running along with her pulse from his quick temper, but it quickly passed. Her fists clenched and she felt a cold draft pass her way, sending shivers down to her knees. "Look, we talked about this, and you said—"
"Things change, Granger," he told her forcefully, suddenly stopping her, grabbing her shoulders. Her heels dug into the snow below her.
His face was just inches from her own, and she only realized that she'd started to hold her breath when he'd accosted her.
"Malfoy," she said quietly, nervously looking around at the people passing by, watching them curiously, "let's talk about this later."
And then he pulled back from her, sighing, still looking angry. "What are you really afraid of, Granger? I thought I was the wimp here, not you."
"I'm not afraid of anything," she said through gritted teeth.
"Is it the war? Is that it?" he asked her, his eyes shrinking to slits. "Because that ended, you know. People died. My mother died. My father died. My whole fucking family died. So what line are you so careful not to step out of? Because," he said, gesturing around them, irritating her even more, "I don't see any."
"Because you've got nothing to lose," she hissed. "You've already lost everything."
"Well, damn!" he yelled at her, and she flinched. "At least that's good for something, right?
"What the hell is wrong with you?" she asked him, her voice rising. "Last time we talked about this, you weren't even ready to—"
"Things change," he repeated to her.
"What do you want from me?" she yelled, catching the attention of some passerby. "What else could I possibly give you?" Unknowingly, she started to tear up. She hated these damn moments. They reminded her of all the Muggle picture shows she'd seen, the sappy romantic ones, where they always had scenes like this. It'd felt a lot different, though, sitting in her seat with her popcorn and looking up at the screen.
It'd hurt a lot less.
What was it about things now that she couldn't let go? Was it really a matter of being afraid to give her heart away completely – or was it out of forward thinking, that she really wanted to preserve part of it for her Great Love? And was it wrong that she thought he wasn't going to be that – her Great Love? Because after the war, it was true, everybody had been shaken and rattled in the things they thought they would always stand firm in. Things like Good, and Evil – because she realized that there wasn't a Good, or an Evil. Just a common basic thought, or idea. And the people who stood in between were always considered enemies, too, or cowards – when really, they just wanted no part in it.
And wasn't it a great surprise when she'd ended up walking back to their victory with another prize in hand: Draco Malfoy's heart? But what was it about her now that when she lay awake in bed, thinking, she didn't feel the flutter in her heart whenever she thought of him? That maybe she felt bound to things she didn't feel, just because when she'd made that tiny step across the now-inexistent line – he'd assumed she'd ran the whole mile?
Was she trying too hard not to set herself up for something potentially great – or horrible – or was she simply just too much in the gray area, still wallowing there, waiting for something to lift her up from that?
He wasn't doing that for her, not right now. He was trying to, but he couldn't. Like she was stuck in it.
His eyes were dark, but they glittered from the whiteness of the snow around them. "I don't know," he told her coldly. "I thought you could tell me."
A breath escaped from her lips, forming a white vapor, but silence reverberated from her body to his, and his body to hers.
"I don't know what you want from me," she finally whispered. But she didn't tell him that she was trying, because suddenly she was overcome with doubts she thought she'd long buried. And she knew that if she spoke anymore, he'd see right through her.
He looked at her, hard, for a long time. "Keep the ring," he told her, starting to walk backwards, and he started to shrink away in front of her, slowly. "I don't want it." Then he turned around, his black coat so distracting from the contrast of the whiteness of the snow, leaving her behind.
And Hermione, she just stared after him. A small white fleck landed in her hair, and then more came, sprinkling down on her, baptizing her in its minute glory. She looked up to the snow, feeling its coolness on her face, and just stood there awhile. When she opened her eyes she saw nothing but the night sky, and the stars were luminous above her, reminding her of how absolutely shitty her own world was, and how impossible that was going to be to fix.

In class, and everywhere else, students from all Houses and years bounced off the balls of their feet in eager anticipation for All Hallow's Eve. The house-elves had taken to decorating the common rooms, as well as the Great Hall and the corridors. The ghosts were in high spirits ("A funny saying, I say, because we are spirits, and we are high," winked Sir Nicholas) as they glided around with happy faces, chatting about the joy of Halloween.
Ron and Harry were ones especially excited for the coming holiday. They'd already mastered their costumes for the party on Thursday night and had snagged dates. Of course, ever since what happened on the night they'd visited Hogsmeade, Hermione had seemed to lose what little enthusiasm she had for the occasion. Not that she went around showing it – she was her usual self, reading books at the table, studying; for lack of better things to do. She'd chosen to be Alice from Through the Looking Glass and already had the appropriate clothes for it, and while it looked a great deal of fun, as Harry and Ron talked on and on about it with bright eyes at breakfast, she just continued to read her book and eat her meal.
"Oy, Hermione. What's wrong with you? You on your monthly or something?"
Hermione looked up, frowning a little. "No, I'm not on my monthly. Not that it's any of your business."
"You're the only one who isn't in bunches thinking about tonight!" Harry informed her. "Come on, don't you think it's going to be fantastic?"
"Yeah, who do you think's gonna win the contest?" Ron asked.
"I don't know," she told them, though she feigned it as if she was actually thinking about it. "And I do think it's going to be fun. But the hype's not gotten to me." She shrugged. "Go figure."
Ron waved it off. "Nah, you wait and see, Hermione. It'll hit you like a wall of bricks. You'll be going insane from all the fun by the end of the night, I promise you."
She looked up, then, straight across the room, where the Slytherins sat. She watched for a second as Draco was talking to Pansy and Millicent with Blaise alongside them, nodding and laughing.
"Right," she muttered under her breath, before looking back down at her book and flipping the page.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Later on, the Girls' Dormitory in Gryffindor Tower was quite a hazardous place – the air smelled of hairspray and a blend of numerous perfumes that made all of the girls hold their breath as they passed. Make-up was being spilled, removers were getting passed back and forth, and big hair was the "thing." The girls had even conjured up seven more mirrors. There was frenetic chatting, half-naked girls running around the dorm, and lots and lots of lipstick.
Hermione retreated to the loo, where she also found Parvati, who was doing her make-up there instead. The loo was empty because of its poor lighting; the girls took note of this and left it vacant – leaving it a safe haven to people like Hermione.
"Hey Hermione," said Parvati, putting on mascara.
"Parvati," said Hermione, nodding to her. "I take it you're—"
"Too much chaos out there," Parvati shrugged, being careful to separate her lashes with a needle. "Can't stand it when they start getting shrill. The hairspray makes me gag. So I thought, why not? Shitty lighting, true. But I reckon it can't be as bad as out there." She lowered the needle a little from her eye (unknowingly relieving Hermione, who was always nervous when it came to sharp things near sensitive parts of the body like eyes), turning her face to her.
"Alice, huh?" Parvati smiled wryly. "Suits you perfectly."
Hermione looked down at her dress. "Thanks," she said. "I guess."
Parvati raised the needle again and started to separate her lashes on her other eye. "So, who's your date?"
"No one," said Hermione, fetching out her comb. "I'm going with Harry and Ron."
"Oh," she replied flatly. "Don't Harry and Ron have dates? I thought I heard—"
"Yeah, they do," Hermione said, combing through her damp hair.
"Why didn't you ask anyone? I mean, what's stopping you? Even Neville's got a date." She exaggerated this by squinting her eyes. "I really do think you've got a lot of blossoming to do, Hermione."
"Blossoming?" Hermione smiled.
"Yeah," said Parvati nonchalantly. "Like a flower. You know." She set down the needle, tucking it in a cloth and putting it back in her bag. She then got out some concealer. She sent Hermione a look. "I saw you, you know. The other night."
Hermione tensed. "Other night?"
"Uh huh," said Parvati, looking at her through the mirror, the small bottle in her hands. "At Hogsmeade. With Malfoy."
"Oh," she replied, her stomach suddenly filled with bulky knots. "That. We were just talking."
"Talking." She twisted off the cap. "Of course."
Hermione looked at her seriously. "It was nothing, Parvati."
She was dabbing on the concealer little by little. First around her eyes. "Fine. I believe you, Hermione. But, I mean – I was just confused, that's all. I heard Pansy talking in the hallway the other day. Draco asked her to the Halloween party." She lowered her hand, poised inches from the mirror. "And I just thought, since the war's over, why hide? What's the danger in letting the public know how you feel about each other?" She paused. "It can't be worth it, can it? Seeing him with another girl?"
Hermione stared at Parvati in the mirror, trying to soak in what she had said.
"It can't be worth it, can it? Seeing him with another girl?"
She put her comb back in her bag. "I don't know. Thanks anyway, Parvati. Have fun tonight." And then she left.
Hermione rushed back into the haze of hairspray and tight, shiny costumes. Somehow the girls, as they passed, turned into blurs. The kind that people always get when they're in a moving car and they try to take a picture of something. Like it was all smeared, and there was no true detail, and everything about it was ambiguous and undefined. Out of focus. Distracted. Like she – or it – was moving too fast. But here was the question: which one was it? Was it she, who was out of pace? Or was the world just moving way too fast for her to take it in?
She sat down on her bed, and their chattering filled her ears. The abstract glare of their glitzy costumes came and went, and then they were gone.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Hermione arrived at the Great Hall a little late. Half an hour late, to be exact. She'd stopped by to help one of the first years with her make-up and costume – she'd had detention and it'd caused her to fall behind with her preparation. But when she'd been helping the girl, she felt relieved. There was no need in her that desired to get there early. There was no need in her that desired to even go at all. But she remembered that she'd promised Harry and Ron she'd show up. She was thinking to maybe hang around for thirty minutes before leaving. They probably wouldn't even notice.
"Hermione, don't you want to dance?" Ginny asked her, as Hermione was sitting at one of the tables, drinking punch.
"Not really," she replied.
"Oh, come on," Ginny insisted. "You've got to dance!" Just then, Seamus came around, grabbing a cup off of the table and drinking from it. Hermione eyed him, laughing.
"That's not yours, you know," she pointed out.
"I know," he said, as he downed it. Then he laid the cup back down. "Now, why aren't a pair of you lovely ladies out there on the dance floor?" he asked, looking particularly nice in his suit. Everybody had asked him what he was, and all he said was, "Bond. James Bond." Apparently Dean had shown him a few pictures and had gotten him obsessed with the secret agent business.
Ginny smiled, glancing at Hermione. "Seamus, Hermione's being a spoilsport here. What do you say to giving her a dance around?"
Seamus grinned, flashing his pearly whites. "I say, couldn't have been truer to your word, Gin." He extended his hand to her, bowing. "May I have this dance, oh spoilsport?"
Hermione laughed. She figured she ought to give it a go. "You may."
It was an upbeat song they danced to, and she was pleased by Seamus' rhythm and pace. He didn't clobber all over her feet like Harry and Ron had, which relieved her immensely.
"You're a good dancer," she told him.
"Why, thank you," he told her, trying to sound suave. "I am also good at other things. Dancing is just a preview. You know what they say about blokes who dance well."
Hermione quirked an eyebrow as he spun her.
"No, I don't know," she told him.
"I don't either," he grinned. "I was just saying it because it sounded cool. Gotta talk the part, too, you know," he told her. "If I'm dressed like James Bond, I have to talk like James Bond."
"I don't think James Bond ever said anything like that."
Seamus shrugged. "Oh well."
As they were dancing and talking, however, Hermione caught something familiar out of the corner of her eye. She began to look that way as Seamus led her to the middle of the floor, bringing her closer, where she then discovered at what had caught her attention.
There was Draco Malfoy, dancing with Pansy Parkinson, just a few steps away from him. Hermione, however, when he'd turn to look at her, looked away immediately, her cheeks flushing instantly. She tightened her hold on Seamus, feeling sweat drip out of her pores and the cords within her body tighten. For a second, when she looked around, everything was a mass blur again. Then she blinked, and it was back to normal.
"Everything all right, Hermione?" Seamus said, peering at her face. "You're… flushed."
She laughed nervously. "I'm getting a bit hot out here. I think… I think I need to go get some fresh air." She stopped, letting go of him. "Thanks for the dance, Seamus. Really."
"No problem," he told her, though it was very obvious that he was confused by the abrupt end of their dance. "We could still go on, you know, the song isn't over—"
"No thanks. I've really got to go outside." She held her head. "I've got a headache."
So with that excuse she left the Great Hall. As she walked down the music became quieter, and quieter, and the more she felt like the walls had slowed their closing in on her. She inhaled noisily, grateful for the silence, and decided to sneak out to the lake. She slipped through the doors and walked through the snow, though it was absolutely freezing, and she'd gone without a coat. She only held herself and felt the wetness squeak against her shoes, heading towards Squid's home.
The air was cold and sharp, quickly penetrating through her skin. She felt the restrictions of the dense air embed into her face, and she almost felt as if she was made of ice herself.
There was a bench by the lake. She brushed off the snow and sat down, feeling the moisture soak through her dress, but realized she just didn't give enough of a damn. She sat out there, facing towards the lake. It wasn't frozen yet – but it would be, soon, and they would have to move Squid to that aquarium facility just for the season. Everybody would then dig out their ice skates and crowd over the frozen water.
She felt a little sad for Squid. She didn't know how it felt, having to be pulled out of your home. Then again, Squid would always return. But how did that feel, exactly? Being pulled out of your comfort zone – and then being put back in?
She sat there for a while, thinking. It didn't start to snow, but she could feel that overnight there would be a blizzard. The clouds were thick and heavy when she looked up. She could almost taste their precipitous viciousness when she parted her mouth, just a little. The cold cut her tongue.
She was too absorbed in her thoughts to hear the quiet sound of footsteps in the snow, heading towards her. What she did notice, however, was the sudden weight and warmth draped over her frozen body, sending tingles rocketing up her body – fixedly purging her of her icy stiffness. She looked down, recognizing the cloak, and then felt a presence beside her.
He was standing up. From where she was, he seemed a million miles above her.
"You shouldn't come out here without a coat," he told her, flatly, looking forwards.
She shrugged his cape off. "You've got no authority over me," she said coldly. "I can do whatever I want."
"Don't be a bitch, Granger. Just don't."
She stayed quiet, glaring at the lake.
"I know you're angry."
"I'm not angry."
"Yes, you are. You saw me with Pansy, and now you're—"
"And now I'm what?" she snapped, her cold-chapped lips painfully stretching with her brutal syllables. "Now I'm what? Acting unfairly? Being temperamental? Being melodramatic over something so fucking stupid? Really, tell me, Draco. I really want to know just in what way you're judging me now."
His face turned into a glower, as well. "Yes. Unreasonable. You're being unreasonable."
She scoffed. "And this from the boy who threw a fit in the middle of the street over something—"
"Don't act like that'll justify what happened," he snarled at her.
Hermione looked away. "Take your cloak. I don't want it."
"It doesn't matter if you want it or not," he said to her, frigidly. "You need it."
She shook her head. "You're no judge of that."
"Well, neither are you."
"What do you want?" she demanded.
"I want to know why you insist on distancing yourself from me," he almost yelled at her, looking angry. "I mean, what the hell is wrong with us? What is it about us that makes you so damn scared?"
"Who said I was scared?" she said, her eyes narrowing. "Maybe I just don't feel the same way you do."
His expression faltered – but just for a second. "Don't try to act so tough, Hermione. It's old."
"Look," she told him. "If you want to end it, then fine. Just end it."
There was a long silence after this. She could swear she could hear the crackling of the snow, and the sound of the frigid drafts passing by. Neither of them could look at the other. It was too hard.
"I don't want to end it," he finally told her, firmly. "I just want to understand."
And the thing was, everybody wanted to understand. It wasn't just him. She wanted to understand, too.
She looked down. For once, she felt her anger slowly melting away. Because his sincerity was something she couldn't stand – it wasn't often encountered, so when it did come out, it was a big deal. It was special. It meant that he was trying. But was that enough? Trying? Was it ever going to be enough to convince her to just let go?
"Maybe we're just too different."
"People always say that. They're never different."
"Maybe," she said silently. "But there's just something about us, Draco. I feel like it's not it. Does that make sense? That I just can't… commit. Because I'm not ready."
"Okay," he told her. "Okay."
And it was just like that. He sat down next to her, and put his cloak over her shoulders again, and this time she didn't shrug it away. They just sat there, in the freezing cold, but somehow it didn't feel so bad anymore. She looked beside her, and though he was about a head taller than her, he wasn't a million miles up. He was right next to her. And she felt it.
His fingers were against hers, squeezing tightly.
Was it possible that just accepting your fears was enough? For a while? That saying them out loud – that you were afraid, and just weren't ready – was enough for two people to find some kind of bridge – tie a temporary knot to bind the broken ends, just until they came across the real thing? Was it enough to confess the truth – and was it enough that the other end of you was able to sympathize?
Because as she sat there with him, she felt like maybe it was. But perhaps it wasn't, for some people. But it kind of was, for them. They weren't taking the plunge – but little steps, little at a time, until they were finally at the edge, and ready. But for now he was taking her there, wallowing with her, slowly wading through the pool.
Just then, he stood up, bringing her up with him. He began to smile at her as he took something out of his pocket.
"What are you doing?" she asked him.
"Just wait and see," he said, smirking at her.
He took out a sparkler. The magical kind that didn't burn anyone but was just as vivid and perfect. He allowed it to light up as it was exposed to the air, counting in a whisper, as Hermione laughed in delight when the tip began to glow, and the top popped off, the sparks spilling out like a bottle of champagne.
The sparks from the sparkler, glowing and violent but greatly astonishing against the dark, reminded her of all the tiny little fractures that had snuck up on her. No - them. All of them. The four of them. Fractures that had been hiding in the crevices until they'd jumped out, all at the same time, and had torn them apart with things like war, and fear, and loss.
And that's what they were.
Tiny little fractures.
Harry Potter, who'd been laughing with Ron and Dean, thought he saw it in everybody's eyes around him.
Ron Weasley, who'd been taking a drink out of his cup, thought he saw it whizzing across the sky.
And Hermione, her face bright and smiling underneath the electric razz, was anything but surprised when he leaned down and kissed her, slipping a brand new candy ring on her finger, and the tiny little fractures exploded all around them until they were no more.
Reviews are always appreciated, my pretties.

Welcome to this project. The CNC UNO is a small desktop CNC Mill that can be used for hobby engraving and routing, PCB milling and education. It is mainly made with 3D Printed ABS plastic parts and plywood. Before starting this project, please observe that this machine is not intended for precision work nor for cutting hard materials like metal. As the machine parts are made of plastic and wood, the machine will flex under heavy load and that is why this project is for fun rather than any serious application. That said, it is a great little machine for hobbyists that want something to play with without having to spend a fortune.

It's a cnc using Arduino UNO R3 , GCode Sender and GRBL. The cnc is made of wood thanks to the help of my father. It has taken us many hours to do the mechanical part however the electronic part is faster to do, but is very gratifying. I based my project on these videos and I have received much support from the author of the first video.
The total cost of the project is about 450€.

Drilling holes in homemade PCBs is greatly simplified with an computer-driven coordinate table on a drill press.
The clue is the on-the-fly calibration technique, so it does not matter where exactly the PCB lies on the table. You only need to move to two drill holes by hand, then the computer knows how to drive to the other holes.

Version 2 of the desktop Othermill milling machine is now available, and it's accurate enough for a range of machining tasks, including double-sided PCBs.
The machine can handle a range of materials, like brass, aluminum, wood, and plastic. For PCBs, FR-1 is recommended over FR-4. With a small milling bit, footprints as fine as TSSOP & TQFP can be created. Solder paste stencils can also be cut using the mill.
For a good walkthrough of PCB creation, read this blog by Tom Simon, a user who liked the Othermill so much he joined the sales team.

this is my first instructable. i show you updates on my cnc machine which will cost about 200 euro's for still decent quality.
don't hate if you don't like this instructable, I'm just an 18 years old student from belguim sharing his ideas and creations with other people. because i think working together and sharing idea's will make better projects.
this is what the machine looks like right now. ill post new photos every time i advance building
i know my video's are not the best. i'm working hard to show you how everything works so it would be nice if you watched at least a peace of all of them to support my project.

All parts were developed separately. This allowed adjustments in the assembly as well as smaller changes in case the design of one or other part become required.
Focus on low cost and use of materials easily accessible in the local market.
Homemade Plotter (CNC Machine) – [Link]
by mikelllc @ instructables.com:
This project describes the design of a very low budget 3D Printer that is mainly built out of recycled electronic components. The result is a small format printer for less than 100$.
First of all, we learn how a generic CNC system works (by assembling and calibrating bearings, guides and threads) and then teach the machine to respond to g-code instructions. After that, we add a small plastic extruder and give an overview on plastic extrusion calibration, driver power tuning and other few operations that will bring the printer to live. Following this instructions you will get a small footprint 3D Printer that is built with about an 80% of recycled components, which gives it a great potential and helps to reduce the cost significantly.

Barcelona's Cesc gives up title to Real Madrid

"We must be realistic - catching up with Madrid in the league is almost impossible. We must focus on the Copa and the Champions League," he stated.

The Trip
... I left. I'll have to just hope they're still there when I get back. Boarding the flight to Jnb felt ordinary. I guess it's because I was so spoilt by the Allan Gray Orbis Foundation throughout my varsity years with flights all over SA. Besides a quick check with the U.S. Consulate after explaining my travel plan to a concerned SAA hostess, it was plain sailing most of the way. The Secret Life of Bees (Sue Monk Kid) is my only travel companion for now. Although to be honest if I ...

Dinner at Al Mayass
For dinner last night, we wandered across the road to the Sheraton where one of the restaurants called Al Mayass and served Lebanese/Armenian food. We asked one of the waiters to select dishes for us - the food was excellent at remarkably cheap (about 280 dirham - around $100 for the two of us). We wandered back very full and had an early night, ready for an early start this morning. We are now on the plane for the shorter leg (5 hours) to ...

The Los Angeles Lakers lost on Wednesday night — again. This time, it was the San Antonio Spurs that added to L.A.'s losing streak, which currently sits at five games. As the new head coach who is supposed to turn his talented roster into a championship contender, Mike D'Antoni is under a tremendous amount of pressure. Perhaps even too much. "At least they put my (hotel) room on the third floor, so if I did jump I would just hurt my ankle a little bit," D'Antoni said Wednesday night, via the LA Times. The Lakers are doing plenty of scoring. Kobe Bryant is averaging over 30 points per game. Steve Nash has averaged over 10 assists per game during the losing streak and the team has scored 100 or more points in 18 of its last 20 games. Their defense, on the other hand, has been abysmal. With a record of 15-20, it won't be long before L.A. fans have to start wondering if their team is in danger of missing the playoffs. It may only be January, but the pressure continues to build as the losses pile up. And if the team wasn't struggling enough when healthy, Dwight Howard has missed the last two games with a shoulder injury. Most NBA fans thought this Lakers team would be fun to watch, but they thought that fun would come in the form of blowout victories — not gross incidents involving towels. If D'Antoni can't get his team to figure out how to stop opponents from scoring on every possession, L.A.'s season could be ending early. Photo Credit: David Richard-USA TODAY Sports The post Lakers have gotten so bad Mike D'Antoni is making suicide jokes appeared first on Larry Brown Sports. Related posts: Lakers hire Mike D'Antoni over Phil Jackson in shocking move Mike D'Antoni was shocked the Lakers gave him coaching job over Phil Jackson Lakers fire Mike Brown
I'm a Celtics Fan....so Welcome to the club Lakers Fan. This is the NBA and the days of teams dominating from year to year is over. I'm sure most players would love to play in the Big markets e.g. New York, L.A., Chicago but the league tries to have parity, so that's life in the Big Leagues.

Christmas at the Cimbel
Chrissysue, Leeds, West Yorkshire
This was our 3rd Christmas at the Cimbel, although it is 4 years since we last stayed. The Christmas atmosphere was almost non existent with only one Christmas tree near the entrance and a small nativity scene near the entrance to the dining room, other than that you wouldn't have known it was Christmas. As in the past there are far more Spanish and other Europeans than British staying at the hotel which is one of the reasons we like to stay at this hotel. The hotel is still very clean and the lady who cleaned our room was very obliging as was the member of staff on reception who sorted out our safe with new batteries when we couldn't get it to work when we arrived. Don't visit this hotel if you want a lively holiday but do stay if you like a more relaxed atmosphere.
The best thing about my stay was...The location and the sound and sight of the sea

2001 Toyota Camry Question: Where is distributer cap located?
A few days ago drove my car through a deep puddle and ever since I, sometimes, can't get my car to crank, and when it doesn't, it won't even turn over. I read that it could be moisture in the distributer cap. Does this sound right? How do I get to the distributer cap to dry it out? - emithen82

Iam pretty sure there is none on there - Honest1autocare

The creative team behind the show got one crack at a movie and delivered what is possibly the Dark Knight's most underrated film. Combining elements of Batman: Year One and Year Two storylines into a twisted tale involving a phantom masked villain killing gangsters (with the cops obviously assuming it's Batman) and the Joker thrown in for good measure, this is a far darker animated film than you would expect to see from a major studio. Characters are killed, blood is spilled and Batman goes through some complex emotional issues. The movie bombed in theaters over Christmas in 1993, with kids disturbed by the twisted tale and adults unwilling to pay for a cartoon. However, if you're a fan of Batman, you owe it to yourself to seek out this dark animated gem.

Windows 10 Home vs Windows 10 Pro comparison: Here are the extra features you get in the Pro version
Nearly Spring
Flu nab last Monday, free electric blanket check today, then Hallowe'n, Guy Fawkes and a couple of carols and we'll soon be picking daffodils again!
I've just planted 106 daffodil bulbs ... 2 kg of red tulip bulbs to follow (in November)...I'm runnin' outta space already!
Aitchbee. I thought you had given up indoor gardening!
My flu nab is due in early November, I think. Looking forward to it because we always get a cup of coffee/tea and anorange or anapple. It all happens in the local hall where the welfare and the local churches get together to advise and help us oldies. Can't fault the organisation at all.
"Looking forward to it because we always get a cup of coffee/tea and anorange or anapple. "
Jammy devil.
We just go to the local surgery, in and out in less than two minutes, sit in waiting room for five in case of immediate adverse reaction, then out!
Got my Flu jab on Wednesday from the Diabetes nurse when I went for my 6 month check up. The two Saturdays set up for later this month are already fully subscribed.
As at morddwyd's surgery our Saturday sessions are a matter of 'Stand in line, roll up sleeve, give name and reason for qualifying, JAB, exit via the fire door.' No sitting around at our surgery though, they usually have about 4 or 5 nurses drafted in, and a doctor in attendance, and get through a very large number of patients at each session.
No cuppas or goodies at our sessions though, but I did get a new, free blood glucose meter from the nurse however. Bit of a cost saving exercise apparently as the test strips for this new meter are much cheaper than the ones for my current meter, £12 as against £17 for 50. Meters are supplied free by the manufacturers, they make their money from the test strips, a bit like printer manufacturers and their ink.
I wonder if doctors would be so keen to give flu jabs if they didn't get paid extra for them. After all they get paid to maintain patient health but never offer a check up even when you don't see them from one year to the next.
johndrew. I am a Jammy Devil then because our surgery sends for me if I don't show my face now and again.
For the annual flu inoculations, our local Gild Hall in Formby is taken over for the week by the various welfare bodies, and a big lump (as Brumas would say) of nurses armed to the teeth with needles etc. We attend in alphabetical order at the allotted time and we are through the system in less than a couple of minutes. Then we can go in to the main hall and partake of refreshments provided by the local welfare organisations. There are also police and firemen and others, doling out advice about safety etc. They do a good job.
You may be a victim of the postcode lottery of course.
Maybe I should have used the plural for the group of nurses that do the job. "Big lump" sounds as if I may be taking the mickey out of a single rather large nurse which is not the case.
Bing.alau I once 'extracted the urine' out of one large lump of a Q.A.R.A.N.C. nurse, mistake, big mistake, I didn't realise a bed bath could be so painful, humiliating and performed without bed screens ;o{
ooh! Carry on Nurse up the Khyber comes to mind. Bet you won't make the same mistake again.

Washing instruction for hi-tech fabrics such as Pocket diapers and microfiber inserts
- Wash pocket diapers using the highest water levels in your washer. For a normal size washer you will probably be able to wash 20 to 24 diapers on the highest water level. It is important that the washer is not under or overloaded. The diapers will need to be able to circulate normally throughout the wash and rinse cycles. Bumping into each other is a natural part of washing but they will need to be able to bump and pass by.
- You may wash pocket diapers in hot water temperature and warm rinse.
- DO NOT use the sanitize wash cycle on as it will prematurely break down the elastic.
- Use the recommended amount of detergent on the package.
- Do not use fabric softener, dryer sheets or any laundry detergent that has optical brighteners, stain protectors or fabric conditioners in it. These products will leave a waxy build-up and lower the absorbency of the diapers or cause leaks.
- The most effective detergent for washing pocket diapers is Tide Ultra powder formula. Tide has been designed for all types of water conditions and can be found locally everywhere. Other products that some customers had good luck with but not limited to are Bi-o-Kleen, Charlie's Soap, Sensi-clean, Allen's Naturally, Planet 2X Ultra Laundry Detergent Standard and HE, Planet Ultra Powder Laundry Detergent Standard and HE compatible, Planet Ultra Liquid Laundry Detergent, Mountain Green Free and Clear Baby Standard and HE, Nellie's All Natural Laundry Soda Standard and HE, Purex Free & Clear, and Country Save.
- Dry pocket diapers on tumble dry medium/low heat or hang dry.
- Allow the pocket diapers to completely cool prior to stuffing and using.
