DEFINITION of 'Outright Futures Position'
A long or short trade on an underlying futures contract that has the potential for unlimited profit, but also carries the risk of unlimited losses. Outright futures are also called naked futures because they leave the investor highly exposed. To reduce risk, the investor may choose to purchase a protective, offsetting option or the underlying security itself.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Outright Futures Position'
An example of a financial instrument an investor might choose, instead of an outright futures position, is a synthetic long put option. Investors might purchase this type of option when the price of a commodity is expected to drop and they want unlimited potential profit but limited risk. The synthetic will also have much lower up-front costs than an outright futures position. Another alternative to an outright futures position that can sometimes carry less risk is to take a spread position.

Consumer Confidence Survey®
Please visit the Consumer Measures page to learn more about detailed consumer confidence data and CEO confidence data.
The Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index® Increases
26 May. 2015
The Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index®, which had declined in April, increased moderately in May. The Index now stands at 95.4 (1985=100), up from 94.3 in April. The Present Situation Index increased from 105.1 last month to 108.1 in May. The Expectations Index edged down to 86.9 from 87.1 in April.
The monthly Consumer Confidence Survey®, based on a probability-design random sample, is conducted for The Conference Board by Nielsen, a leading global provider of information and analytics around what consumers buy and watch. The cutoff date for the preliminary results was May 15.
"Consumer confidence improved modestly in May, after declining sharply in April," said Lynn Franco, Director of Economic Indicators at The Conference Board. "After a three-month slide, the Present Situation Index increased, propelled by a more positive assessment of the labor market. Expectations, however, were relatively flat following a steep decline in April. While current conditions in the second quarter appear to be improving, consumers still remain cautious about the short-term outlook."
Consumers' assessment of current-day conditions improved in May. Those saying business conditions are "good" edged down from 25.5 percent to 25.2 percent. However, those claiming business conditions are "bad" also decreased from 19.2 percent to 17.4 percent. Consumers were mixed in their assessment of the job market. Those stating jobs are "plentiful" increased from 19.0 percent to 20.7 percent, while those claiming jobs are "hard to get" rose from 25.9 percent to 27.3 percent.
Consumers' optimism about the short-term outlook edged down in May. The percentage of consumers expecting business conditions to improve over the next six months inched up from 15.4 percent to 15.6 percent, while those expecting business conditions to worsen also increased, from 9.1 percent to 10.8 percent. Consumers' outlook for the labor market, however, improved. Those anticipating more jobs in the months ahead increased from 13.8 percent to 14.6 percent, while those anticipating fewer jobs declined from 16.4 percent to 15.5 percent. The proportion of consumers expecting growth in their incomes was unchanged at 17.4 percent, while the proportion expecting a decline increased slightly from 10.8 percent to 11.1 percent.

Bill Ward Hints at 'New Rock Trio' Project
While Black Sabbath fans keep their fingers crossed for a reunion with Bill Ward, the band's estranged drummer continues to keep busy with an expanding list of projects.
While Black Sabbath fans keep their fingers crossed for a reunion with Bill Ward, the band's estranged drummer continues to keep busy with an expanding list of projects.
Bill Ward said he won't reunite with Black Sabbath until his dispute with Ozzy Osbourne is resolved.
For all the public squabbling between Ozzy Osbourne and Bill Ward over the past few years, the former Black Sabbath drummer maintains that he holds no grudges toward anybody.
Even if he's on the outs with his Black Sabbath bandmates, that doesn't mean Bill Ward can't draw comfort from the classic music they recorded together.
Whatever the final outcome of Bill Ward's sad public feud with his Black Sabbath bandmates, the veteran drummer definitely isn't wasting his time away from the group.
You didn't really think this story was over yet, did you?
Bill Ward says he's not sure if he's still a member of Black Sabbath, though he notes that he's "neither severed not discontinued my relationship" with the group.
Ozzy Osbourne has responded to Bill Ward's open letter to him in the exact same way the drummer blasted him earlier this week: on Facebook.
Exiled Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward has lashed out at his former bandmates for attacking him with "nothing but insults and false remarks" since his contentious separation from the group back in 2012.
Roger Taylor and Bill Ward have pounded their opponents during the opening rounds of our March Drum Madness competition, but now they face their toughest battle — each other.

Copyright — nature and meaning of the concept of parody
By the opinions published on 22 May, advocate-general Pedro Cruz Villalón of the European Court of Justice ruled on the nature and meaning of the concept of parody, as defined in Directive 2001/29, in response to questions proposed by the Belgian Court of second instance, indicated below:
- Whether the concept of 'parody' is an autonomous concept of the European Union law
- If so, whether a parody has to satisfy the following conditions or conform to the following characteristics: have an own original character (originality); and such that the parody cannot reasonably be ascribed to the author of the original work; be designed to provoke humour or to mock, regardless of whether any criticism thereby expressed applies to the original work or to something or someone else; mention the source of the parodied work
- Whether a work has to satisfy any other conditions or conform to other characteristics in order to be capable of being labelled as a parody…

Three more mutants are returning to Bryan Singer's "X-Men" fold!
The "X-Men: Days of Future Past" director took to Twitter on Saturday to announce that Anna Paquin, Ellen Page and Shawn Ashmore have been added to the growing roster of the upcoming superhero film.
"Very excited to welcome #annapaquin, @ellenpage & @shawnrashmore to #XMen #DaysofFuturePast," he wrote, adding a note of thanks to the man at the helm of 2006's "X-Men: The Last Stand." "Thank you @BrettRatner for letting them live!"
Anna (who plays Marie/Rogue) and Shawn (Bobby Drake/Iceman) starred in 2000's "X:Men," 2003's "X2" and 2006's "The Last Stand," while Ellen, who plays Kitty Pryde/Shadowcat, first arrived on the mutant scene in the third film in the franchise.
The trio joins a long list of former "X-Men" stars returning for "… Past."
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Hugh Jackman will be back as Wolverine and Jennifer Lawrence will return as Raven/Mystique.
Additionally, Sir Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellen will reprise their roles as the older versions of Professor X and Magneto, respectively, while "X-Men: The First Class" stars James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender will return as the younger versions of the powerful mutants.
"X-Men: Days of Future Past" is set to hit theaters on July 18, 2014.

Clermont move clear
The Auvergne secure spot in the play-off semi-finals
Last Updated: 21/04/12 6:46am
Clermont have moved clear at the top of the Top 14 standings following a convincing 22-9 win over Montpellier at the Stade Marcel Michelin.
The Auvergne had started the match in a share of pole position with Toulouse, however they needed a late try from Ti'i Paulo to make sure of a place in the play-off semi-finals.
Clermont, the Heineken Cup semi-finalists, had only led 6-3 at the break after a nervy first half - with Brock James landing a penalty and a drop-goal, while Martin Bustos Moyano was on target for the visitors.
Santiago Fernandez kicked Montpellier level in the second half while James was in the sin-bin.
And although Morgan Parra landed two penalties to restore Clermont's advantage, Fernandez slotted over his second successful kick to keep Montpellier in the hunt.
However Parra added his third penalty and then converted after replacement hooker Ti'i Paulo barrelled over in the 70th minute to put Clermont clear.

Apple has released iOS 8.1.3 for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, which brings with it relief for those who feel that updates have become too cumbersome to install.
Google has released its Chrome Remote Desktop app for iOS, allowing users to remotely access their PCs using their iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices.
Jealous of the tight integration between iOS and OS X 10.10 Yosemite? Feel left out because you use an Android device on Windows? Wish there was an easy way to send files to your Android device? You need AirDroid 3.
The software helps users move files from their Android, iOS, and Windows devices to an Intel-powered laptop running the Chrome OS.
The week in iOS: Apple hit with $350 million suit over iPod, patent grant to protect dropped phones, and shifted selfie camera.
The iPod has been relegated to the non-material "other" revenue bucket for Apple starting next quarter. But its DNA lives on in the iPhone, iOS and App Store.
In iOS news this week, China is getting the iPhone 6, there's a possible launch date for Apple Pay, a bug in iOS 8 deletes iCloud documents, and some users are reporting Bluetooth issues with iOS 8.
When Apple added OTA (Over The Air) updating to iOS, it promised a simple, streamlined update experience. So why have I just spent the best part of an hour deleting apps and files to make room for iOS 8?
Just as the iPod became a gateway drug for the iPhone, which itself became the gateway drug for the iPad, iOS is set to become the platform that tempts people into the OS X ecosystem.
Android KitKat might have reached 1.1 percent of handsets in one month, but, as usual, the latest version of iOS is reaching Apple devices a lot quicker.
Holding off on upgrading to iOS 7 from iOS 6 may be a good idea for many reasons, but your iOS 6 device will have scores of unpatched vulnerabilities.
If you're sticking with an older iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, your preferences may warrant holding off upgrading to iOS 7 straight away. Here are six good reasons.
Malwarebytes has launched a backup service that includes scanning files for malware. It backs up multiple Windows PCs, and Android and Apple iOS devices, with optional encryption to protect your files in the cloud.
The lack of an accessible file system makes it hard to keep track of projects that use multiple files. Does Apple need to make the iOS file system accessible to all, or is there an easier way for the Cupertino giant to allow users to manage files?
An iWatch could help Apple cement iCloud services with its current iOS and OS X offerings, but it's more likely that any iWatch will be more of an iPod nano than an iPhone or iPad.
Now that iOS 6 is available, Apple has revealed what security vulnerabilities exist and have been patched in its latest mobile OS.

The parent company of the best Linux distro around now offers their free Ubuntu One Files service for your iPhone.

iTunes 9 Essential Training takes an in-depth look into Apple's popular music and media management application. Instructor Garrick Chow explores all aspects of this free application, from basic music management and playback to advanced iPod syncing options. Garrick shows how to browse and purchase music, TV shows, and movies from the online iTunes store, and how to find and listen to podcasts. He discusses the usefulness of Genius Mixes, the iTunes DJ, and the built-in backup features of iTunes. Exercise files accompany this course.
If you have a subscription to the lynda.com Online Training Library or if you're watching this tutorial on a disk, you have access to the Exercise Files used in this tutorial. Just copy the exercise files to your computer's desktop or to another convenient location.

So you will have to work with your own songs on your own computer. But this is probably a good thing if you musical tastes don't match mine. For the most part though, you can learn what I'm showing you just by watching and using the exercise files I was able to provide or you can always try out what I am showing you with any of your own music and video files as well.

text: New and Improved Desktop version of Google Maps open to All Stormy Beach 16 July, 2013 2 Comments Back at Google I/O they demoed what the new Google Maps online would look like. In the beginning stages you had to request an invite and pray to the Google Gods that you got accepted. While plenty of you probably did get your invite and have been happily playing around on the new Maps interface, many of us were left out in the cold. Heck, I almost forgot they even showed it. Today they have moved past the email invite system and are allowing anyone who wished to sign up give the new and improved Google Maps a go for them selves. The new Google Maps for the web is even easier to try out. No email invite needed. Sign up and get instant access: http://goo.gl/1qhuL No more sitting around checking your inbox and spam folder for that illusive email. Go hit "Try Now" through the link above and get yourself instant access to the new Maps. What are you waiting for? Go to the new Google Maps page now. Via 9to5Google FILA runs slow on the desktop right now, hope it improves. I guess Google is taking out the feature to make maps for navigation and shit, what a load of shit. makes sense take out features that people may have used to plan actual trips and not just one search for a fucking sushi bar like they always advertise. Thanks Google

Dominika and her man wanted to stay and shop a few more days. They just got a new camera and I offered for them to stay longer if I could take some pictures along with them. They seemed happy that I offered. They got into it more then I thought they would. I guess it did not take much for them to get all excited. They gave me a show I will not forget. Dominika has a great slim body and her legs went on forever. Her super model face had me with her first smile. I did not want to stop rolling after she got naked. I got what I wanted and then some, so they got to stay a little longer. It was just another great deal for everyone.

Simple eye test could diagnose Alzheimer's
Story supplied by LU Press Office
A simple eye tracking test could hold the key to earlier Alzheimer's diagnosis, according to new research published in the Journal of the American Aging Association.
Work, led by Lancaster University in partnership with Royal Preston Hospital, Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, has shown that people with Alzheimer's disease have difficulty with one particular type of eye tracking test.
As part of the study, 18 patients with Alzheimer's disease, 25 patients with Parkinson's disease, 17 healthy young people and 18 healthy older people were asked to follow the movements of light on a computer monitor, but in some instances they were asked to look the opposite way, away from the light.
Detailed eye-tracking measurements, taken from the group showed stark contrasts in results.
Patients with Alzheimer's made errors on the task where they were asked to look away from the light and were unable correct those errors, despite the fact that they were able to respond perfectly normally when they were asked to look towards the light.
These uncorrected errors were 10 times more frequent in the Alzheimer's patients compared to the control groups.
Researchers also measured memory function among those Alzheimer's patients who found the test difficult and were able to show a clear correlation with lower memory function.
Dr Trevor Crawford of the department of Psychology and the Centre for Aging Research, Lancaster University, said these new results were potentially very exciting as they demonstrated, for the first time, a connection with the memory impairment that is so often the first noticeable symptom in Alzheimer's disease.
He said: "The diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease is currently heavily dependent on the results of a series of lengthy neuropsychological tests. However, patients with a dementia often find that these tests are difficult to complete due to a lack of clear understanding and lapse in their attention or motivation.
"Over the last ten years researchers in laboratories around the world have been working on an alternative approach based on the brain's control of the movements of the eye as a tool for investigating cognitive abilities such as attention, cognitive inhibition and memory.
"This study takes this work forward because we found strong evidence that the difficulty in noticing and correcting the errors was probably caused by a problem in the memory networks of the brain that allow us to store the spatial position of objects in the environment.
"The light tracking test could play a vital role in diagnosis as it allows us to identify, and exclude number alternative explanations of the test results."
Alzheimer's disease is a devastating disorder of the mind and the most common cause of dementia, affect approximately 500,000 people in the UK. The disease process starts many years before the symptoms begin to appear so it is vital for the development of future treatments to be able to detect its earliest signs.

Kingdom Keepers
this wiki
The Kingdom Keepers is a popular book series for kids, teenagers and adults, written by Ridley Pearson and published by Disney Hyperion.
In the Kingdom Keepers series, five teens have been chosen to act as models for holographic guides at Walt Disney World. But the cutting-edge technology has a glitch; when the kids fall asleep, they are transported to the Parks in their holographic forms. The ensuing adventures take readers on a rollicking ride as the Kingdom Keepers fight to prevent Disney's destruction.
You can visit the official site for the Kingdom Keepers now at thekingdomkeepers.com.
Kingdom Keepers
The Kingdom Keepers series features seven novels. The first novel Disney After Dark was published in 2005, the second novel Disney at Dawn was published in 2008, the third novel Disney In Shadow was published in 2010, the fourth novel Power Play was published in 2011, the fifth novel Shell Game was published in 2012, the sixth novel Dark Passage was published in 2013 and the last novel The Insider was published in 2014.
Kingdom Keepers I: Disney After Dark
Using a cutting-edge technology called DHI — which stands for both Disney Host Interactive and Daylight Hologram Imaging, Finn Whitman, an Orlando teen, and four other kids are transformed into hologram projections that guide guests through the park. The new technology turns out, however, to have unexpected effects that are both thrilling and scary. Soon Finn finds himself transported in his DHI form into the Magic Kingdom at night. Is it real? Is he dreaming?
Finn's confusion only increases when he encounters Wayne, an elderly Imagineer who tells him that the park is in grave danger. Led by the scheming witch, Maleficent, a mysterious group of characters called The Overtakers are plotting to destroy Disney's beloved realm, and maybe more.
Kingdom Keepers II: Disney At Dawn
It's supposed to be a happy day at the Magic Kingdom — the return of the teenaged holographic hosts. But things go very wrong when a sudden lightning storm disrupts the celebration, and Amanda's mysterious sister, Jess, disappears. The only clue is the sighting of a wild monkey in the Magic Kingdom during the storm.
The mystery deepens as Finn is contacted by Wayne, an old man he hasn't heard from in months. Wayne tells Finn that there's trouble at the Animal Kingdom: the evil Overtakers have gained control of one of the computer servers that will be used to operate Daylight Holographic Imaging there. That means that if any of the holographic hosts fall asleep, they will go into comas — permanently.
The wild rides have only just begun; and the clock is ticking. How long can the teens keep themselves awake in their quest to find their friend — and what happens if they fail?
Kingdom Keepers III: Disney In Shadow
With the adventures set forth in the first books now behind them, Kingdom Keepers 3: Disney In Shadow follows the five teens, Finn, Philby, Willa, Charlene, and Maybeck as they search to find Wayne, their mentor and head Imagineer who has mysteriously gone missing. Concerned Wayne has been abducted by the Overtakers-Disney villains, who along with other Disney characters, take over the parks when the turnstiles stop spinning, and want desperately to steer the parks to a far darker place — the five kids pick up a major clue from a close friend, Jess, whose dreams (nightmares, really) often accurately predict the future.

The very few clues from Jess's dream lead the kids into Disney's Hollywood Studios and Epcot — through imaginary worlds that become real, by imaginary kids who are real. Each clue seems tied to the last, and with the stakes growing ever higher, what starts out as a puzzle ends up as a fight for their lives.
Kingdom Keepers IV: Power Play
For the five teens who modeled as Disney Hologram Imaging hosts, life is beginning to settle down when an intriguing video arrives to Philby's computer at school. It's a call for action: the Overtakers, a group of Disney villains, seem to be plotting to attempt a rescue of two of their leaders, both of whom the Disney Imagineers have hidden away somewhere following a violent encounter in Epcot. A staged attack by new Overtakers at Downtown Disney, startles the group.
One of their own, Charlene, is acting strange of late. Has she tired of her role as a Kingdom Keeper or is there something more sinister at play? When caught sneaking into Epcot as her DHI, acting strictly against the group's rules, Finn and Philby take action.
Has the "impossible" occurred? Have the Overtakers created their own holograms? Have they found a way to "jump" from the Virtual Maintenance Network onto the Internet, and if so, what does that mean for the safety of the parks, and the spread and reach of the Overtakers? Are they recruiting an army from outside the parks?
Kingdom Keepers V: Shell Game
As the Disney Dream joins the cruise fleet, a special treat is in store for guests aboard its inaugural sail from Cape Canaveral to Los Angeles: the Disney Host Interactive teenage guides will be part of the Dream crew.
Finn, Maybeck, Charlene, Willa, and Philby are to attend the cruise as celebrity guests, and to perform a ribbon cutting for the DHI server to go live. The Dream is now the most advanced cruise ship in the world.
But all is not right below decks. Strange things are happening. Unexplained phenomena. Only the Kingdom Keepers know the truth behind their invitation: nearly every Disney villain is represented on board the new ship: whether on its decks or in its theaters. It's believed the Overtakers have infiltrated the cast and are "stowaways." Worse: it is believed they have stolen an important journal that once belonged to Walt Disney himself–Finn has been having dreams about this–and that some kind of mission is planned.
The ship sets sail filled with enthusiastic guests and crew, and the battle is on in new and exotic arenas. But the end game is far more complicated and intense than anything the Kingdom Keepers had planned on. If the Overtakers get their way, a power will be unleashed that no one will possess the ability to vanquish.
Kingdom Keepers VI: Dark Passage
The five Kingdom Keepers and their core friends have uncovered a startling truth: Maleficent and the Overtakers (Disney villains) are plotting a catastrophic event that could have repercussions far beyond the world of Disney. Aboard the Disney Cruise Line's inaugural passage through the new Panama Canal, the Keepers and their holograms uncover a puzzle hidden within the pages of a stolen journal. The point of that puzzle will reveal itself in the caves of Aruba, the zip lines of Costa Rica, and the jungles of Mexico. A destructive force, dormant for decades, is about to be unleashed. The five Kingdom Keepers are to be its first victims.
Kingdom Keepers VII: The Insider
Ridley wrote the Kingdom Keepers series finale — The Insider — in an unprecedented collaboration with fans, over a 6 month period, through the Kingdom Keepers Insider app and website.
The Kingdom Keepers' senior year in high school is almost over. For more than three years, things have been quiet. Their battles are long behind them, they agree, the threat to the Disney realm silenced albeit at great cost. But inside the catacombs of the Aztec temple where Finn Whitman faced down his nemesis, the monstrous Chernabog, a new threat brews.
Deception and betrayal rock the Kingdom Keepers as the merciless group of Disney villains known as the Overtakers stage an unexpected comeback. But a discovery by the Keepers provides them with one hope of victory — a lost icon. It was believed to be gone forever. The Keepers have one last chance to preserve the heart of the Kingdom — Disneyland — from a terrifying destruction decades in the making.
Fairlies Adventures
Fairlies Amanda, Jess, and Mattie have won the hearts of Kingdom Keepers fans. Over the years, they've protected and supported the five Disney guides with their paranormal abilities. Now for the first time, author Ridley Pearson focuses on the "fairly human" girls, with a new series of novellas.
Unforeseen — A Kingdom Keepers Novella (ebook)
Unforeseen is exclusive to Kingdom Keepers Insider. To purchase it, go to the Kingdom Keepers Insider site now.
Jessica's "gift" to dream of future events is both a blessing and a curse—the same visions that have saved countless lives are pure torment for her. Trapped in a body with a mind that has a mind of its own, Jess is condemned to see things she would often rather not.
Picking up after Kingdom Keepers VI—Dark Passage and leading up to Book VII—The Insider, Unforeseen opens with Jess dreaming of "cracks" in Disneyland. Is this vision something that will consume and destroy her friends, the Kingdom Keepers?
Jess sets out to find answers, embarking on her own nighttime adventure inside the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. There, she encounters an old man with secrets, a young Imagineer-in-training whose future Jess wants to see, and a treasured wonderland about to shatter.
The Syndrome
When Amanda travels east to Orlando on a hunch, she's met with the worst news possible. Kingdom Keeper Finn Whitman is missing. Calling on her own gift (she's telekinetic), her sister Jess's ability to dream the future, and their fellow Fairlie Mattie Weaver's unexplained ability to read minds through physical contact, the three gifted girls must navigate treachery, deception, and the stubborn, unwilling parents of the missing Keepers if they're to save their friends.
The Return

Keeper Profiles
Lawrence Finnegan "Finn" Whitman
Finn is the natural leader of the group. He was the first to cross over as a DHI and the first to go all clear. He comes up with creative solutions under pressure thanks to quick thinking and courage. He's a reliable friend and holds the group together when times are tough.
Charlene TurnerCharlene was picked for the DHI team because of her extremely good looks and athletic prowess; she is a cheerleader, dancer, track runner, and champion gymnast. She's easily frightened but is able to overcome fear in order to do battle with the Overtakers. Charlene's good with people; she can make friends with anyone.
Terry "Donnie" Maybeck
Maybeck has that thing about him that makes him cool without even trying. He consider himself God's gift to everything and thrives on playing devil's advocate. His sarcastic humor isn't always appreciated by his fellow Keepers, but his artist's eye helps him see important clues other might miss.
Dell Philby
Philby is the kind of smart that makes other kids ask him to do their homework. He knows everything, and what he doesn't know he can figure out. Lately, Philby has had a bit of an attitude, but in spite of it (or maybe because of it), he remains an invaluable member of the Keepers.
Isabella "Willa" Angelo
Willa can come off as a bit geeky. She enjoys school more than she lets on, and of the five Keepers she's the only one who can match Philby in a battle of wits. She doesn't like breaking the rules, but she'll do anything for her fellow Keepers.
The Overtakers
The Overtakers are the enemies of the Kingdom Keepers. Walt Disney himself foresaw the emergence of the Overtakers, knowing that the stronger one believes in something, the more real it becomes; the more belief put in the characters, the closer they got to being in the real world. The Overtakers intend to rule the parks and the world outside. Most of the Overtakers are the antagonists of Disney movies and attractions. Generic, lesser characters are used as their soldiers. For an unexplained reason, the Overtakers are sometimes not visible to normal people or security cameras.
Overtakers From Disney Movies
Maleficent (Sleeping Beauty)
Kingdom Keepers I: Disney After Dark: Maleficent is the first Overtaker that the Kingdom Keepers encounter. In Disney After Dark she tries to get her hands on the Stonecutter's Quill (Walt Disney's first pen). Sometime before the events in Disney After Dark she captures Amanda's sister Jessica. She forces Jessica to help her by trapping her in a spell. The Keepers meet Maleficent at the Indian Encampment. She tries to scare them away but her plan fails. When the Keepers start searching for the Stonecutter's Quill she makes different attractions come to life in horrible ways.
After the Keepers find the Stonecutter's Quill Maleficent lures them down into a secret base of operations in the catacombs below the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction- an enormous jail built by the Imagineers. The Keepers discover that the jail is full of recently spruced up cells. Maleficent tells them that she plans to take over the Magic Kingdom and lock the Cast Members in the new cells once she obtains the Stonecutter's Quill. Finn manages to weaken her by using the Stonecutter's Quill on her but she manages to take Walt Disney's original concept plans, the last piece to the mystery of the Stonecutter's Quill.
The Keepers and Wayne set up a plan to get the plans back. Finn, Philby, and Maybeck find her in the computer server room in the Utilitors beneath the Magic Kingdom. Finn pretends to give her the Stonecutter's Quill and as soon as she opens the door to the room Philby grabs the plans from her. Realizing that she was tricked an angry Maleficent blasts through the Utilidors in an attempt to capture the kids. While the rest of the Keepers escape the Magic Kingdom Finn turns Jessica back to normal. Finn manages to escape Maleficent and the Disney Imagineers trap her in a net. Maleficent is then locked in one of her cells below Pirates of the Caribbean.
Kingdom Keepers II: Disney At Dawn: At the beginning of Disney At Dawn it is revealed that Maleficent has been moved from prison to prison by Disney Imagineers. Maleficent is now locked up in a tower in Cinderella Castle. One day The Overtakers use a weather balloon to attract a lightning bolt. The window of the tower is destroyed and Maleficent escapes to the Animal Kingdom and kidnaps Jessica. Wayne tells the Keepers that Maleficent has managed to get her hands on a DHI server.
The Keepers get into the Animal Kingdom at dawn to find Jessica and the DHI server. They quickly realize that Maleficent has animal spies and other Overtakers out to get them all over the park. Luckily the Keepers manage to escape or stop them all. At one point Maleficent kidnaps Philby and Willa while they have fallen into the Sleeping Beauty Syndrome. She hides them in the Animal Kingdom Lodge but Finn and Maybeck manage to save them.
Finn and Amanda realize there's still one thing left to do before they leave the park and they head to Expedition Everest. The Keepers, Amanda, and Jessica come face to face with Maleficent in the attraction's climax. Before they can do anything Maleficent uses her powers to release Chernabog from the giant Yeti audio-animatronic. Maleficent tries to use her powers to kill Finn but she is defeated by Amanda. The Keepers, Amanda, and Jessica leave Expedition Everest and Maleficent and Chernabog escape the Animal Kingdom in an ice truck that is headed for Disney's Hollywood Studios.

At the end of the book the Evil Queen and Cruella manage to free Chernabog and Maleficent from their prison by engineering a power outage.

So in my B classes, we're talking a lot about breastfeeding and the benefits, etc.Ā I'm getting to the point where I'm looking at pumps and thinking of how this will go (I'm 7.5 months.)Ā I'm a FTM and want to breastfeed, but I have 1 inverted nipple.Ā Has anyone dealt with this and breastfed successfully?Ā I'm concerned that my one boob with the inverted nip will become engorged.Ā I'm going to be consulting La Leche Leagues soon as well, but wanted to ask the masses if anyone has this problem too. Thanks!
Breastfeeding with 1 Inverted Nipple? Anyone else?
Comments (6)
Yes, I have done it successfully! It will be a little more difficult, but it definitely can be done! I am glad you are contacting the LLL. They will be a tremendous help! Luckily, you know about it beforehand and can prepare for it. With my first, I had no idea and it caught me off gaurd(I didn't have Bradley classes or a good doc for that matter!). Surrounding yourself with a good support team is the best way for you to breastfeed successfully and it sounds like you are acheiveing that! Good luck! :-)
Klarissa: wife to my sweetheart, mommy to 3 boys and 1 princess, Bradley Method teacher and doula to many!
One of mine was not necessarily inverted, but more flat than the other and didn't really stick out.┬Ā LO had a harder time latching on that side in the beginning, but we stuck with it and he drew the nipple out within the first few weeks!┬Ā Now he actually prefers that side. :)┬Ā I have seen multiple sources that say it can totally be done!┬Ā Check out the below link for more information.
Mama to my beautiful blue-eyed boy: Maxwell James, 3/14/11 (c/s)
and my sweet sunshine girl: Lillian Grace, 7/29/13 (VBAC!)
I also have one that is FLAT. With my son the Lactation lady gave me a nipple sheld and it was ok. But it got to the point where he wouldn't nurse without it and it didn't feel good it made it hurt. I am planning on nursing without the sheld this time. I know this might be TMI but almost as soon as I found out I was pregnant with my second one my "flat" nipple started looking normal. In fact my nipples have gotten huge this time. My Bradley teacher said its because your body knows what to do know so its preparing its self. You might struggle but don't give up it is well worth it.
I have flat nipples but consider them inverted because when I do the test (pinching together at edge of areola) they retract not stick out more, although they do get erect when stimulated:
┬Ā I got this:┬Ā http://www.lansinoh.com/products/latch-assist┬Āto help evert nipple prior to feeding.┬Ā
I also plan to go to a LL meeting or 2 prior for some tips.┬Ā I think preparation and information mixed with a little patience on both our and LOs part will get both of us success!
Me:38, DH:43. Colette arrived 3/23/2012. I miss charting
Check out the breastfeeding forum. there are plenty of resources there to answer your questions. There are also links to other sites and one of them has a lactation specialist you can chat with.

It is almost a truism that marketing has become highly technology-intensive. A nearly ubiquitous component of any marketing technology portfolio is email marketing. In fact, there is a high probability your company is already using some form of it, even though you might not be aware of it. A related component is marketing automation. Customers often talk of these in the same breath. In this article, we will look at this distinction in some detail and also summarize what marketers should know when evaluating these technologies.
Mar 02, 2004
The Wall Street Journal Online at WSJ.com has announced an enhanced version of In Today's Paper, which is designed to make it easy for online subscribers to "flip through" the site, particularly print readers accustomed to the print layout. In Today's Paper is one page on the site where all of the articles from that day's print Journal can be found online; the page features all print headlines and the section front articles feature summaries from the online editors.
Other online-only features include: Scoops and updated news every day; Journal archives; Personalized tracking of industries; Email articles to colleagues and friends; Interactive graphics and articles; More columns and discussions from Journal writers; Global edition with full content of Asian and European Journals every day; Research on nearly 30,000 companies worldwide; and Personal finance tools in the newly redesigned Personal Journal section. Prior to the enhancements, the In Today's Paper section showed a glossary of just the section front articles (A1, B1, C1, W1), but nothing inside the paper was available in that section. Now, the enhanced In Today's Paper section, provides a glossary showing every headline listing of major articles organized by section of the Journal paper in one place.
