Jeff Campbell, his wife Lucy and her younger brother Jesse were
new to town. They'd just gotten married then moved to Indian
territory, but just on the border, away from most tribes. It had
been a long journey from California, and they had Indians to
avoid the whole time. Jesse had already almost lost his scalp. If
it weren't for Jesse's fast gun they'd probably all be
Jeff and his brother were at their first town meeting. The man of every house was supposed to come. Jeff had forgotten that some houses were out of men to run it. Mrs. Taylor was a widow, and her only son was eight. Not quite old enough to be the man of the house, though he was here with his mother, learning the trade so it seemed. They had come for their fatherless family. She had six more daughters at home. And her son Samuel was the oldest.
And Jenny Land, she was young, only sixteen. Her father was young too. He and her brothers had gone to fight with the rebels. Word had come around that all three were dead. The girl was left to farm and work the house by herself. She had no blood family here. Her father had only just moved them here when they had to go to war. And Jenny was too busy to make friends.
There was silly folk talk that she never slept. Neighbors saw her working day and night. But tonight she was here, representing her land and her deceased family. Jenny had silver, blonde hair that was braided neatly behind her head. She wore a clean green dress and a yellow bonnet. She had clear green eyes and a small nose and full, red lips.
Talk was that she was the envy of all the young men in town. Jeff felt sorry for her. She couldn't be a pretty girl. She had to work and wouldn't really get the chance to court with other young men. He wondered what it was like for a young girl to have to take care of herself like that.
Everyone knew why the meeting had been called. Word was that soldiers were coming...Yanks. And what their intentions were was unknown. Were they here in peace or in war? The town was afraid that the Yanks were vengeful. War had been hard around these parts. Jeff hoped he wouldn't have to move again.
War was the reason they had to move from California. Even though the war wasn't as strong there, it was still dangerous. It wasn't the war about the states, but about land. A gang was riding and burning houses and claiming the lands for their own. There was rumors that James Carter Mitchell was behind it. He'd been trying to buy the lands for years.
A few men wandered over to Jeff and introduced themselves. Jesse joined them shortly. Jeff introduced his brother and the men grinned.
"Is there a reason you men are all smiling so big?" Jesse asked.
"Yeah, talk is that the pastor likes you." Mr. Darkens said, the men chuckled at the comment.
"Well I do reckon that is something to grin about. I suppose it is a mighty fine thing that a man of God thinks I'm a good man." he replied.
"Son, it's more than that. When Jenny was fifteen and her Pops and brothers left, well the pastor done took it on himself to find her a good husband. You're only a few years older, and the pastor only has you and Markey to choose from. Well, let's face it, Markey just ain't a good match fer Jenny cause of his temper." Mr. Darkens explained.
"Well, Jenny sure is a lovely lady, but I won't be staying long. I'm not lookin' for a wife just yet. I plan to move on to Tennessee once my sister and her faithful husband get settled down."
"That's just too bad. That girl works so hard. She deserves a man to help her run the farm."
"Well there ain't no reason you can't help Jenny before you move to Tennessee. Your sister would think mighty high of you for it." Jeff said.
"I think that's up to Jenny. She probably don't like to be imposed on." Jesse muttered.
"It's like he already knows her." Danny Saul teased. "She don't like that the pastor is trying to marry her either. I overheard her talking to Sherry, my wife, saying she didn't have time for a husband because she was too busy at night. My Sherry about fainted.
I was howling with laughter all the way home. Sherry likes to bring her food every once in the while. Something about being a good neighbor and God damning us to hell if she don't."
Jesse laughed. "Well, I commend her for working so hard. But like I said, I'm not going to be here for long. Besides, I might have to join the war in a year. It would be a shame to put her through what she just went through."
"Amen." Mr. Darkens agreed. "But she still needs a man."
Jesse shook his head.
"Is that right Mister Darkens?" a musical voice asked. It sounded so young. "I think I'd know if I needed a man. Far as I can tell, I'm managing just fine on my own." Jenny said.
Mr. Darkens put a friendly arm around her shoulders. "I'm just worrying about ya as always."
"Oh really? I figured you were just looking for more gossip to pass on to Sherry. The whole town would be buzzin' to discover I'm getting married." she replied. She kissed him on the cheek and smiled. "I tell you what, every man I meet just wants to get me married anymore. Can't a woman work herself to the bone this day and age?"
"It's more than the work, Jenny. You need a man to protect you when those Yanks come around." Danny said.
"I do have a man for that." she replied.
"Since when?" Mr. Darkens asked.
"Since I learned how to shoot my Daddy's six gun." she replied. The men laughed.
Jesse could see how mature the girl was. Though she seemed young and her voice was young, she was a woman beneath. He wondered how much she had to face on her own. He knew a little about womanhood from his sister. He wondered if Jenny had to face those kinds of things by herself. He felt a deep pity for her.
"Well Miss Land," Jesse said and tipped his hat. "They've only said good things about you as far as I can tell."
She smiled and nodded her head. "Well Mister Thomas, thank you for easing my worries. I don't think I could bear having folk talk bad about me." she said then grinned.
"All right folks, let's get settled down and start this meeting." Doctor James said. He was the one who held the town meetings and called them to order.
The crowd got settled down and Doc took his place at the front of the church. Jesse was suddenly taken with Miss Jenny Land. He'd never met another woman like her. His sister had a similar spirit, but not quite the same. Jenny was used to being the man of her house.
She acted like she was just another cowboy making a hard day's pay. It intrigued Jesse more than he liked. He didn't want to grow attached to anyone, especially not a girl. He was young and not ready to settle down. Yet, he was already falling for the stranger. Jesse shook his head and looked over at Jeff to see him grinning.
"What?" Jesse asked.
"You like her, that's what." he replied. "Can't wait to tell Lucy. We should invite her over for dinner. We are her new neighbors after all."
Jesse shook his head. "Brother, I think you're going to fit into this town after all. You're already trying to find her a husband."
"No, brother, I'm trying to find you a wife." Jeff replied. "Think how happy your sister would be with me if I did just that."
"Trying to kick me out, Jeff?"
"Something like that. Your sister and I never did get to go on a honeymoon." he murmured.
Jesse laughed as the Doc called the meeting to begin. "I think we all know why we're here." he started. "The Yanks are coming this way and the paper says they're burning houses and raping women." All eyes flew to Jenny and Mrs. Taylor then flickered back to Doc. "They're killing innocent men and stealing food. They're claiming the third amendment." he sighed.
"What does the third amendment have to do with burning houses and killing men?" Gregory Smith yelled.
"Nothing." The Doc replied. "They're grasping at straws, trying to justify what they're doing. It's war, and the Yanks are reminding us of that. Either we pack up and leave or we fight. There's not much choice." he sighed.
"Then we fight." Jenny said. "If any of my family is still alive I'm not letting them come home to Yankees. I'm willing to fight. I can kill a man. I can bury him too." she said.
Jesse looked at her, amazed. That's it, he was in love.
"Jenny, no one expects you to fight." Doc said.
"My father would. He wouldn't have taught me to shoot otherwise." she said, her chin up.
"We haven't decided yet, Jenny." he reminded.
His eyes flew to Jesse and the other eyes followed his. Jesse sighed. He'd already known it was him who was expected to protect Jenny. He was, after all, her new neighbor. He realized somewhere in his mind he'd already decided that for himself. Jenny was his new responsibility. Great.
He wondered if he could teach Jeff how to fast gun. It would come in handy when the Yanks came around, and there would be war in town. He'd do that too.
Maybe even teach Jenny how to fast gun. Though women weren't usually good at that type of thing. Jeff put a hand on his shoulder knowingly. He was reminding him not to worry so much. Jesse was famous for that. He pursed his lips.
"I'm not leaving my land." Mr. Darkens said. "I'm going to fight, and I'd like to get those Yankees before they have the chance to burn down my home. I say we take them out as soon as they set foot in town."
"I suppose we don't have much choice. We have about three days to plan for the Yanks. Any man who can fight is welcome to help." Doc held up a hand before Jenny could open her mouth. "You know what I mean Jenny. You're welcome to help, but you really should stay home."
"You need all the help you can get. In fact, do you have any idea how many Yanks are coming?" she asked. "How many are we up against?"
"We're not sure. At least seventy."
"I'll ride out to the Yanks as a spy and find out the numbers. If I ride hard I should be able to make it back in time and give you a good estimate."
"No." Jesse said. He stood. "I'll go. If a spy is captured they'll be hanged the next morning. A woman will be raped too. It's too dangerous."
Jenny stood. "Just because I'm a woman-"
"Because you are a woman no man will take you seriously. We know you, because we're your town. But to soldiers you're just a girl. I'll go." Jesse said.
"I can do this!" Jenny argued.
He glared at her. "Sit down." he snapped. God, women tested his nerves.
He and Jenny glared at each other for a moment. Finally, she slowly sat down and crossed her arms.
"I'll go." he repeated. "And I'll fight when I come back."
Jeff stood up beside him. "Where we come from Jesse was known as a fast gun. He can draw and fire in under one second."
The men laughed. "That's impossible." one of the men sputtered. He was a big, burly man, and looked pretty cocky.
"I'm not here to prove anything. Just know I can shoot and I'll fight." Jesse said.
"Any man who can stand up to Jenny is a fighter in my book." Doc said and the men erupted in laughter.
Jesse looked at Jenny and tipped his hat. "I apologize. But maybe you'd better remember you are a woman and that if you're father and brothers return they'd like to find you here alive and unharmed." he said then sat down. He wasn't in the mood to fight with a woman. A girl too, he reminded himself.

Simple Shoe Makeover
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.

Fix a little hole in your shoe with this Simple Shoe Makeover idea from I Love to Create. While this project uses Toms shoes, you can use this easy and fun idea on any and all shoe crafts! So grab those well worn shoes and give them a new look!
- Old pair of shoes
- Scrap fabric
- Aleene's Fabric Fusion Peel and Stick Sheets
- Ribbon or lace
- Scissors
- Peel one side of stick sheets off and apply it to the shoe, lining it up with the long seam across the top of the shoe.
- Smooth it over the front middle and then along the sides. Naturally, you'll need to pleat it where the pleats are in the shoes. Then just trim the paper to match the shoe.
- The sheet won't cover the entire front, so you may have to add a few more pieces until the whole front area is covered.
- Once you've got the paper everywhere you can smooth it over the shoe to get the adhesive to adhere and the just peel off the paper. Now it looks like this.
- Then apply the fabric the exact same way. You could apply a little fray check around the bottom, but if you got the adhesive all the way to the bottom I don't think you'll have to worry much about fraying. It's stuck on quite well.
- Add a little extra adhesive inside the pleats to get them to stay flat.
- Smooth the fabric over to get it really stuck on there - especially at the bottom. I didn't like the raw edge of the fabric across the top of the shoe so I decided to add a little bit of lace. I used the dry adhesive again, cutting it into thin lines and then I laid the lace over it.
- And BAM. They're done. No waiting until they are dry because they already are!

Totally clever! Also, cheaper than buying a new pair. Definitely easier than finding a new pair I like. I hate breaking in shoes and often this year's trend may not be available in my size.

@rayword45 alright, i agree with you except with Twilight Princess. In my opinion, TP has the best graphics in all of the Zelda games. everything was realistic, it had great design as well as smooth textures. I would like to see it in the graphics of the tech demo from E3 2011, but that is most likely not going to happen.
wind waker is probably the worst tv console Zelda game i have played and I own all of them except SS. If there is going to be an HD remake, make it one of the more iconic Zelda games like OoT (3ds doesn't count) or MM. I think that more people would buy the remake of Majora's mask more than wind waker. Wind waker was the first zelda on the GameCube and had a new method of getting from place to place, sailing. sailing in wind waker was boring, there was nothing to explore other than these bunkers that shot at you. As well in windwaker, there were only six dungeons. Nintendo could have done better, they should have scrapped the triforce search and added 1 or 2 more sages to awaken. this would have made the game much better and enjoyable. Nintendo, broadening the market, targeted this toward kids. my 9 year old brother beat this without looking up anything on the internet. what does that tell you. THIS GAME IS TOO EASY!!! I remember having rage fits when I was 9 playing OoT because I was so lost in the forest temple to finally pick it back up when I was 13 and still have trouble. Zelda games are suppose to to confuse you, (not to mention realistic graphics<like twilight princess>). Zelda also needs to have a dark feel to it. the Master of all evil Ganondorf has arisen and everything to everyone is still joyful nearly everywhere. compare this to OoT, Hyrule town is destroyed and filled with Redeads. everyone migrates to Kakariko Village for safety. there are problems nearly everywhere to Lake Hylia to Death Mountain to Kakariko Village to Zora Domain to Lon Lon Ranch and most importantly...Hyrule. you end up resolving these problems spreading peace where Ganon has thrown darkness. This is the true essence of how Zelda should be, and wind waker does not deliver. Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess are examples of games that do deliver the true essence of Zelda

I couldn't help but throw myself at him. Marshall was the only person that I felt like I could trust, at least besides Jed. But now that Jed is…gone, I really need someone.
I fell right into his chest. I could feel my sobs getting harder and louder. He surprisingly wrapped his arms back around me. It was very comforting.
We stood there for a long while. He let me cry and snot all over his sweater. After quite some time, I pulled away to look at his face. His eyes were very apologetic and sad. I could tell that he had emotions for what was going on.
He looked down into my eyes as he wrapped a jacket around my shoulders. I pulled it on and snuggled inside it. The jacket was big and heavy, and I practically drowned in it. But either way, it was nice and warm. I looked down at my feet as I sniffled. "I'm sorry I made your sweater all icky."
He chuckled. "It's really okay. I can wash it any time."
"And thank you for the jacket."
"I figured you'd be cold. You kinda rushed out in your t-shirt and your shorts."
I nodded.
"Are you…" Marshall paused, and I looked up into his beautiful baby blue eyes. "Are you okay Ava?"
I looked out into the woods. I could hear things making sounds, and I wasn't sure what it was. A soft rumble of thunder sounded in the distance. "I just…" I wasn't able to find my voice. I felt the tears coming again. I wiped my eyes for a final time. "I just can't believe what I saw."
He nodded and then looked down at his shoes. "I'm really sorry Ava. Please believe that."
I nodded and he looked back at me. "Marshall will you please walk with me and talk?"
He smiled slightly and then nodded. We started walking as the sky got even darker. There were no streetlights out here, but we could still see the road in the darkness and fog.
"What would you like to talk about?" He asked, breaking the silence between us.
I thought about it for a moment. I really wanted to take this time to ask him some serious questions. "Well, can I just ask why you're so nice to me? I mean, why aren't you a dick like Carter is towards me?"
He giggled. "Well Ava, believe it or not, but I like you."
I half-smiled. "Well thanks Marshall, but that's not really what I meant."
He sighed. "I don't like Fredrik. I really can't stand being where I am. I do what I do because I don't have anything to be able to live on my own yet. He's the only job that I have, and the only source of food and money." He sighed again. "I hate seeing how upset you get when you're around him. When I first tried to help and kidnap you, I couldn't have cared less about you." He stopped walked, and I turned around to face him. "But the more I got to see you, the more I really wanted to get to know the real you. I could see how scared you were whenever you were with Fredrik, and when you finally found out who he really is in his nonhuman form. I really don't want you to be miserable with him for the rest of your life."
I smiled. Through all the pain I had been feeling before this moment, I felt like it vanished. I was actually feeling very relieved. "I-I don't know what to say."
He continued to walk, and I turned to walk with him. "You don't have to say anything. You don't even have to forgive me for everything I've done to you."
I grabbed his hand. I entwined my fingers with him. I felt a lot closer to him than I ever thought I could be. "Marshall, could you at least do me a favor tomorrow?"
For once our footsteps were in sync. "Could you please break up with Bridget tomorrow?"
He laughed. His laugh was cute. It wasn't obnoxious, and it wasn't annoying. It was normal and cute for a boy like him. "I can do that. But only if you can do me a favor too."
"What would that be?" I felt a smile forming on my lips.
He stopped me from walking any further, and then he grabbed my other hand. We stood there holding each other's hands in the middle of the dirt road. I could see a faint smile on his lips. "We need to disguise you."
"You heard me Ava."
"Well yeah, I heard you, but what do you mean by disguising me?"
"Exactly that."
"Why would we need to do that?"
"I just feel like it would throw Fredrik and Carter off."
I paused and looked out into the fog, thinking about it. It did sound like a valid plan, and I had to admit, anything to get those two idiots off my case would be worth trying.
I looked at Marshall and I nodded. "What are we going to do?"
"I'm not sure yet. But I figured we could take care of it after school tomorrow. How does that sound?"
"Sounds good." He grabbed my hand and we continued walking down the dirt road.
We finally reached the outskirts of town and I could see the faint glow of streetlights. Under the sound of thunder, and under the few strikes of lightning, the rain started to fall again.
He walked me all the way back to my street. He turned me to face him and he put his hands on my lower back. "I'm gonna go back now okay?"
I nodded. "Thank you Marshall for walking me back."
"I want you to be able to trust me Ava. You can come to me for anything."
I nodded again and looked into his chest. He pulled me close into a hug.
"I really do care about you Ava."
I pulled away and looked back up into his face. His baby blue eyes shone bright in the low gleam of the streetlight. He leaned down and he kissed me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I let it happen. I knew it wasn't the best thing for me to do, especially at a time like this, but I couldn't help myself.
We finally pulled away and he was smiling. It was really cute. I smiled back at him and I gave him another long hug. "Goodbye Marshall," I said as I walked away.
I hurried back to my house. The fog thickened, but I found my front porch. The lights were still on in the house so my parents were still awake. I opened the door and I could see my father pacing back and forth in the living room.
Being back at my home brought even more tears to my eyes.
My father stopped and stared at me, then he eagerly rushed over. "Ava are you alright sweetheart? Where have you been?" He locked me in his embrace, and then my mother came and joined in. "Oh Honey! Are you okay baby?"
I could feel the tears flowing from my eyes like a leaky faucet. I backed away and then looked at them both. "Mom…Dad…Jed is…" I looked down at my face and watched my tears fall to the hard wooden floor.
My mother wrapped her arms around me. "We know Honey. We found him when we came home from work." She was sobbing as well. "Honey we need to get to the hospital right away."
My face shot up to look at hers. "You mean…?"
My father half-smiled. "Well of course Ava, Jed had to go to the hospital. There was no way that he would've been okay if we didn't call an ambulance."
My heart nearly skipped a beat. My father ushered my mother and I out to the car as he locked the door. We filed into the garage and into the big SUV parked inside. We sped off out of the driveway and headed out of town. The nearest hospital was in the next city over, so that's where we went.

I love mornings, and mondays... I view them as the start to new adventures! The day and week are full of possibilities!
usually don't mind, it's the start of the work week, but new beginnings as well

New Appointments at Marion County Board of Supervisors Meeting
Posted By News On December 28, 2009 @ 1:20 pm In Today's Local News | Comments Disabled
The Marion County Board of Supervisors met in regular session this morning. Included in the short agenda was the appointment of several individuals to various state boards and commissions including the Central Iowa Regional Transportation Planning Alliance, or CIRPTA, the conservation board and board of adjustment.

He stated bulk of the appointments will be made at the Board of Supervisor's organizational meeting at 9:30 am, January 4th.

I steam my veg in either reduced fat chicken stock or vegetable stock. They taste super yummy! And it makes me want to eat more. another good tip is using evaporated milk(low fat) and a little corn starch to thicken sauces, it gives a really creamy texture to recipes without having to use the high calorie heavy cream.
Whenever I cook a chicken I make stock from the leftovers. Once I've removed the fat from this I keep it in the fridge (or freeze it in flexible cupcake molds) and use it to stir fry vegetables with/add to sauces instead of oils... it really works. My current favourite use is a steak sauce made from mushrooms and onion fried with the stock, a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar, and a tablespoon of reduced fat greek yoghurt... it's great!
for added flavor, boil the pasta in chicken or veg stock and go a min or two past the recommended cook time
why i've overdone it , i eat a big plate of veg with a chicken stock cube for my main meal and this balances it all out

Boston researchers have found that, among infertility patients having IVF, men's poultry intake is related to better fertilization rates in IVF cycles with and without intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). However, men's consumption of processed meat, like bacon, canned meat products, and sausages, was related to poorer fertilization rates in IVF. Processed meat intake had no effect on fertilization in cycles using ICSI.

ALBANY, Ga. -- A two-vehicle collision sent a child to the hospital and injured four others around 6:45 a.m. Thursday, according to Albany Police Department reports.
All victims from the crash treated at Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital were discharged Thursday, a hospital spokeswoman said.
Johnny Reddick Jr. drove his 1995 Honda Civic out of a Home Run convenience store with his headlights off and failed to yield to traffic on the 3300 block of Gillionville Road, police reported.
The report added that the Civic collided with Carl A. Taylor's 2007 Dodge Charger that was heading west on Gillionville. Taylor had three children in his car: Cameron Moore, 7; Karron Moore, 4, and Jamaron Edwards, 3.
Reddick was cited for no headlights and failure to yield, reports stated. Taylor was cited for no proof of insurance and not having two children in child restraints, reports added.
In a series of dangerous driving events unrelated to the Gillionville Road crash, police reports stated that three drivers reported having objects thrown at their vehicles while on the 100 block of West Oakridge Drive.
According to three police reports, about midnight Wednesday, Robert Williams was driving a 2013 Peterbilt gas truck when its passenger side window was hit by "an unknown object" thrown from the side of the road.
About a minute later, Derrick Bailey and Shonta Coleman were in a 2001 GMC Yukon when someone threw something at the front windshield.
Within seconds, James Terinson drove another 2013 Peterbilt gas truck along the 100 block of Oakridge Drive, where an object thrown from the side of the road broke out the passenger side window.
The three incidents are all under investigation as terroristic threats and acts by Albany police.

Canton hopefuls miss 'Target'
The 24 national finalists in the 2014 Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run program presented by Scotts, the official youth skills competition of Major League Baseball, were announced recently on MLB Tonight on MLB Network.
But Canton hopefuls Luke Janack and Ben Brandt missed the cut in the boys 9-10 division and boys 7-8 division, respectively.
Only three contestants per division (nationwide) move on to compete at the National Finals and take part in activities this week at Target Field in Minneapolis, Minn.
Luke, 10, and Ben, 8, each won the recent team championships in their respective age divisions at Comerica Park in the MLB-sponsored state contest.
That came after finishing first in the PHR local and sectional championships at Eastern Michigan University. Both attended Workman Elementary School in 2013-14 and play on different teams with the Michigan Blue Jays travel program.
The national PHR competition will take place on the field at Target Field at 2 p.m. Monday, prior to Gatorade All-Star Workout Day.
Beginning in March, approximately 625,000 youths participated in more than 4,000 competitions that took place across North America. Two former finalists are Eric Hosmer of the Kansas City Royals and Chris Parmelee of the Minnesota Twins.
New coach for Pens
The Plymouth-Canton-Salem Penguins varsity girls hockey team has a new coach.
Jenna Donnelly has been named to coach the defending Michigan Metro Girls High School Hockey League Division 2 champions. She succeeds coaches Mary Beth Smith and Brad Johnson, who have moved on to other opportunities.
"Jenna will do a fantastic job and Mary Beth and I could not be happier that she is taking over where we left off," Johnson wrote in an email to the Observer.
Plymouth Y programs
The Plymouth Family YMCA is offering a variety of youth instructional programs. The focus will be on fun, exercise and social interaction through sports instruction.
The programs include preschool soccer, preschool and youth basketball and volleyball. Ages vary by program, but offer something for children age 3-14.
The programs are open to YMCA and community members. For more information, contact the YMCA at 734-453-2904 or visit ymcadetroit.org/plymouth.

One day there was a young
boy walking to his home . While he was walking he saw a wallet
and money fell out from it ,the young boy was surprised and had a
second to think 'what shall I do with all this money? ' The young
boy does not know that this action is not good to spend the money
because it does not belong to him ,so the young boy went to the
market and he was thinking about buying an expensive device to
play a game ,when the boy tried to give the money to the seller
,the seller saw his wallet and he recognized his wallet and the
seller tried to take it from the boy and said to him 'where did
you get my wallet?'
The boy said " i saw it when i was going home" . At that time the young boy was very Disappointed as he couldn't buy the device that he wanted. When the seller took his wallet, he was very happy to find his wallet, and he saw the boy crying , then he said to him 'what would you like to buy if you had this money in this wallet?' The young boy said ' I want to buy a PSP to play a game' ,so the seller looks at his wallet to see if the money is in it ,then he found all the money that was in the wallet ,but the money that was in the wallet was not enough for the device that the young boy wants to buy , so the seller gives the device to the young boy as a gift , to make the young boy happy for Bringing back his wallet .
The young boy is now playing his PSP at home and he is very thankful for finding the wallet that day. Honesty can pay off in the long term!.

Good day.
I'm glad that they have changed the law regarding the citizenship of a filipino to japan, in the case of being a half fil and half japanese myself. I read the whole article and it says that you must take care of your documents before you turn 20. in my case, i'll be turning 20 few days from now and I'm still studying for my college degree. after i finish my college degree, i want to move back to japan to study and work. basically to live there. is it possible that i can get a citizenship in japan even I'm above 20 years of age? and if so, would it be hard to get a citizenship in japan? Thank you and have a great day.

Jamaican saxophonist. He learnt to play at the legendary Alpha Boys? School, as did many of his contemporaries, a strict Catholic school for ?wayward? boys run by nuns that produced an incredible number of top class musicians. In the early to mid 60s Roland tore up the dancehalls as a founding member of the Skatalites, recording a string of hits such as ?Guns of Navarone?, ?Phoenix City?, ?Man In The Street? and ?Dick Tracey?, making them the leading exponents of this new music called Ska and the most popular group in Jamaica.
When the Skatalites split up in 1965 Roland formed the Soul Brothers with Jackie Mittoo, a group that oversaw the change of musical styles from Ska to the slower paced Rocksteady and more hits soon followed. In 1967 he joined Jackie Mittoo?s group the Soul Vendors where he played on many of the group?s instrumental hits which are still constantly being versioned in Jamaica to this day. For examples of his work check the Soul Jazz Records compilations ?Studio One Ska?, ?Studio One Story? and ?Last Train To Skaville?

When debating the NFL's best pass-catchers, most fans probably think of Calvin Johnson, A.J. Green, Josh Gordon, Dez Bryant, or Jimmy Graham.
But what about the most popular?
That title still belongs to Dallas Cowboys veteran tight end Jason Witten.
Witten, who is about to enter his 12th season in the NFL, ranked as the pass-catcher who generated the most memorabilia sales in 2013, according to a list released by NFL Players Inc.
Witten ranked No. 15 among all players in jersey and memorabilia sales via online and traditional over-the-counter outlets. He was also the highest-ranked Cowboy, besting Tony Romo (22), DeMarcus Ware (29), Dez Bryant (30) and Miles Austin (34).
Witten is considered by many to be one the greatest tight ends of all-time. Last season, he had 73 receptions for 851 yards and eight touchdowns in 16 games.
Super Bowl champion quarterback Russell Wilson was No. 1, followed by Peyton Manning, Colin Kaepernick, Robert Griffin III and Aaron Rodgers. In fact, nine of the Top 10 are quarterbacks. Marshawn Lynch is the highest-ranked non-quarterback at No. 7 and J.J. Watt is the top defensive player at No. 11.

Fragment from an incomplete and fragmented Attic sarcophagus (E00118, E00180 and E00182) dating from around 250 A.D. with an especially interesting because it is the only example of its iconography.
The story, which is highly appropriate because of its tragic character, is divided into various scenes. The front shows the armistice celebrated between Aqueans and Trojans to celebrate the marriage of Achilles to the Trojan princess, Polyxena. Agamemnon can be clearly seen in the center, between Ulysses and Paris (the latter's head is restored). The right side shows how the treaty was broken when Achilles dies after being wounded in the heel by Paris.
Finally, the left side shows Polyxena marching to her own sacrifice in honor of the dead hero, accompanied by various Aqueans including Achilles' son, Neoptoloemus. The front of the sarcophagus is missing, except for a few fragments in the Louvre. It represented a combat between Aqueans and Trojans.

Volvo Ocean Race Legends - Flying the Norwegian flag, the Norway Round the World project, headed by former Olympic sailor Peder Lunde, jr, will sail the veteran Swan 57, Berge Viking, to Alicante in November this year.
Past Whitbread competitor, Berge Viking, will be in Alicante to take part in the Legends Regatta and reunion this year - Volvo Ocean Race Legends
The boat will join Copernicus (Poland), Great Britain II (renamed Whitbread Heritage) and the maxi yacht Rothmans (Sweden) to take part the Volvo Ocean Race Legends reunion and regatta.
'We want to celebrate the 30-year anniversary of our participation, tell the story of our red, white and blue Swan and meet and unite with other famous round the world yachtsmen,' says Peder Lunde, jr, who will be bringing a large group of supporters and sponsors to the event in November as well as his crew.
Thirty years ago, an all-Norwegian, fully amateur crew led by skipper Peder Lunde, jr, Olympic Gold Medallist in the Flying Dutchman class, Rome 1960 and Olympic Silver Medallist in the Star class, Mexico 1968, and Stig Hatlo (co-skipper) found the support to build a Swan 57 in order to represent the Royal Norwegian Yacht Club in the Whitbread Round the World Race 1981-82.
In that race Lunde and Hatlo competed against Cornelis van Rietschoten, the eventual winner with Flyer. Many years before, in 1948, the 'flying Dutchman' as van Rietschoten was affectionately known, had, in an extraordinary feat of seamanship, sailed his 8.9-metre Dragon class boat across the North Sea from Holland to Norway to compete in the Dragon Jubilee regatta in Arendal, where he competed against Lunde's parents.
Lunde's pedigree is impressive. His parents won Silver (together) at the 1952 Olympic Games in Melbourne. His grandfather won Gold at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris, while his daughter Jeanette competed in alpine skiing at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer and in sailing at the Sydney Olympics in 2000. Lunde's wife Aud, competed in alpine skiing at the 1968 Winter Olympics in Grenoble.
Berge Viking's best result in The Whitbread was on leg one, from Portsmouth to Cape Town, where she finished in fourth place. But a host of other prizes were also awarded to this Norwegian team.
After leg three, which took the fleet deep into the Southern Ocean and around Cape Horn, Berge Viking was awarded the seamanship prize for the best log book, the prize for best communication with the organisers and also a prize for the best maintained yacht in extreme conditions in spite of their 180 knock down. The awards jury comprised British and Argentinean Naval Admirals, who were running the stopover in Mar del Plata.
After finishing eighth of a fleet of 20 eventual finishers (29 entries) in 1982, and taking 149 days to complete the 26,000 nautical-mile course, Berge Viking returned to Oslo where she was greeted by a large armada of pleasure boats and sailing enthusiasts. She became, as Norway's first entry in the race, a national symbol and a reminder to the Norwegians of their proud seafaring history.
For the main sponsor, the Bergesen d.y. group, the challenge after a successful race, was to find a meaningful use for the well-known boat in the future and Berge Viking was donated to the newly established foundation - The Norwegian Sailing School.
For five years she was used to train young Norwegians in the skill of coastal and blue water sailing, which included several longer voyages, among them a trip to the Canary Islands, where she was based for several winter seasons.
Finally, Berge Viking was put up for sale and was bought by today's owner, Morten Sig. Bergesen, who at that time was the CEO of the Bergesen d.y. group, the original and main sponsor of the project Norway Round the World.
Berge Viking returned to the Nautor Yard, where she originally was built, and went through a major re-fit. After being re-delivered she has been used as a private yacht for the owner and his family.
Among her many challenging and exciting adventures since, she has been to the Shetland Islands, visited Spitsbergen which brought her north of 80 degrees and, in January 2008, she went to the Antarctic, which brought her south of 64 degrees.
On her return to Norway it was time to schedule a new re-fit, where among other updates, the original mast was replaced.
The total sailing distance of Berge Viking since her delivery in 1979 is assumed to be approximately 200,000 nautical miles, and the 'Old Lady' is still ready to see more of the world.
'We will be proud to bring her to Alicante and show what a yacht that has circumnavigated the world several times can look like,' Peder says.
The official Preliminary Notice of Race is now available for download together with full information on how to take part and a preliminary schedule of events here
The Volvo Ocean Race Legends will celebrate the long and varied history of the world's premier ocean race and includes racing and social events in November this year for all those who have competed or been involved in the event since its inauguration in 1973. It promises to be an occasion not to be missed, with many former sailors travelling from all over the world to take part.

this is for all you broke people with a broken crank arm hole who ride $40 bikes from the salvation army.
you can use j-b weld epoxy (hardware store, auto store) to fix it for $5. i have ridden 100+ miles on mine over big hills and i am 220lbs.
maybe i will have trouble replacing the BB, but i dont care.
i had tried other 'cheap methods' .. drilling a hole in the axle was too difficult (hardened steel), shims didnt work, i had no welder and only one car battery for 'battery welding', locktite '1 minute' epoxy is too soft, and jb 'stick weld' is not strong enough.
i slathered the normal ordinary jb weld over the axle taper and inside the crank hole, then put the crank on, then put the nut on the axle thread, then kinda tightened it (thread was stripped , and broken), and then slathered jbweld all over that. i waited about a day and a half and rode off into the sunset.
keyword: pedal arm, crank arm, jb weld, j-b weld, epoxy, welding, stripped

December 1, 2015
NEW YORK (AP) - AT&T has confirmed it's reached a deal to acquire smaller rival BellSouth for $67 billion in stock.
The deal would substantially expand the reach of the telecommunications giant, already the country's largest by number
of customers served.
It also goes a long way toward resurrecting the old Ma Bell telephone system.
BellSouth is the dominant local telephone provider in nine
Southeastern states.
Together, the two could have $70 million local-line phone customers and nearly 10 million broadband subscribers.
AT&T and BellSouth are already wireless partners, jointly owning the nation's largest carrier, Cingular Wireless.

Talk a bit about the history of your curly hair, including things you vow never to commit again.
"As soon as I came into the world, I had huge, spiky black hair (even my parents couldn't guess what was coming). I always wore it short until my pre-teens; I can say that my hair was the least sexy thing about me!
My mom always brushed my hair (goodbye curls, hello super-volume and frizz!) and tamed it with a headband or cotton wool to prevent it from falling into my eyes. I was far from approaching the beauty ideal of my peers: AKA blonde, straight-haired princesses. It was hard, but at the same time made me appreciate my other features, including the interior ones.
I say without a problem that my hair has shaped my personality. When I entered adolescence, I had many episodes including everything from shaving my hair, to making braids like Snoop Dogg, dying it blue, red, and even green — but always with short hair. I adopted my current style at university; when I became an adult, I let my hair loose."
Tell us a bit about your hair's color maintenance.
"My hair is naturally brown. Currently, my lovely and patient mother dyes it for me at home. We started doing it because we wanted to save money, and I actually prefer it! I hate spending hours at the hairdresser doing anything. At home, I can be occupied simultaneously with something productive."
RELATED: We Can't Get Over This Girl's Hair Or Tattoos
"I always use a hydrating mask in the bath. As with most curly hair, the conditioner isn't enough because my hair is extremely dry. On the day I don't wash it, I use a moisturizer spray to eliminate the cushion-like quality. I try to use a serum, but sometimes I get lazy."
How often do you straighten your hair, if ever?
"I think I have straightened it three times in my life!"
Is there any aspect of your hair that needs special attention? "No, it's always okay. Except when it rains — then it stays in cloud mode without curls, annoyingly. But, I think only I notice it."
Is it easy for you to find the right product? Or do you jump from item to item?
"I know what kind of products to use. I get furious when brands change products I considered perfect, like TIGI's Dumb Blonde mask."
RELATED: Our Fave New Look: Big Curls And Red Lips
"I only comb in the shower, as you can imagine, and the best detangling mask is made by Pantene. I always recommended TIGI's Dumb Blonde line, because it gave me a unique glow. However, when they changed the packaging, I think they changed formula."
Are there any rules for people who admire your hair?
"Well, I really wish there were. It's super-annoying when anyone tries to touch it without my permission. But, it's also a good conversation opener."
How do you see the world covering our curly Portuguese hair? Do you think it's put aside as a niche, with brands putting all curly hair in one category? Are we self-marginalizing?
"I have seen a very rapid evolution in this fiend in terms of products available in the market, and in people's attitudes. 10 years ago, it was unbearable."
Do you envy anyone else's hair? Can I say that I don't?
"I don't envy! I envy my own hair on a good day!"
Ana Rita D' Almeida and Denise Sonnemberg — two Lisbon-based twenty-somethings behind the blog Curly Essence — know that you are not your hair. Still, there's no reason not to celebrate the natural hair movement, and now, the ladies are bringing their expertise in everything from the best leave-in conditioners to the top travel spots straight to R29.

Her long, dark hair and lovely blue eyes , her warm, gentle smile, her skin so soft and to touch her is like heaven. She lights up the room just by being in it, she's like a dream in real life, I've never meet anyone like her before. She truly is amazing and without a doubt, remarkable in everyway. She is, and always will be beautiful in my eyes

GREENSBORO, NC -- The holidays are great. Food, family, gifts, parties and that little thing called STRESS! Could financial stress be a contributor?
Many of you may not directly link your stress to your holiday spending, but Certified Financial Planner Matt Logan of Matt Logan, Inc says, " it is a contributing factor. If this is the time of year that you run up credit card debt and erase all of the progress that you have made all year long, you might want to pay attention. "
Matt's first rule: putting together a realistic budget.
"Try to sit down with your spouse and create a realistic list of expenses. Don't forget to include things other than gifts such as holiday cards, a Christmas tree, any Christmas parties you may have and any donations that you may do during the holidays. For many of you who have never done a Christmas budget, this total number may come as a sickening surprise to you."
The point is not to be a grinch, but if you know how this budget looks, you will be able to make slightly wiser choices when you are in the heat of your Christmas shopping bliss.
"When doing a budget, be sure to leave wiggle room. None of us are robots. Also, make sure that you know where this money is going to come from. If it is to be all on credit cards, you may want to look a little further and make some cuts. It is not worth the stress."
According to the National Retail Federation, sales in the months of November and December of 2013 are expected to be $602.1 billion. This is an increase of 3.9% from 2012 and more importantly, this is a whole lot of money. Another survey by Prosper Insights & Analytics says the average holiday shopper will spend $737.95. For many families who may have a tight financial picture in the first place, this amount is often put on credit cards.
"Many people I speak with, as well as my own extended family have gone away from giving individual gifts to doing a gift exchange. My wife uses a website called "Elfster".
To set it all up, you place a spending limit and it randomly selects who you gift. Each participant can request a gift that they would like to receive but the system keeps it anonymous. It is a great tool, but the even better part that is instead of buying a small gift for each member of a large family, you can focus on one person and get a little better item.

A local woman has been arrested following a domestic dispute which sent a man to the hospital early Sunday morning in west Shreveport.
Just after 5:30 a.m. on Sunday, Shreveport police officers were called to an apartment complex in the 4200 block of Greenwood Lane after a reported battery. Upon arrival at the scene, officers located 29-year-old Brian Green suffering a severe laceration to the neck.

Black Strathmore Artagain paper, white Conte' and Prang pencils, white vinyl eraser.
Added –30 brightness, +9 contrast after scanning. Tilting Sun program used for digital Sun insert.
The NE and the SE limbs continue to put on a display for us. I didn't get a chance to observe yesterday for all the overcast and light snowfall, but over the past several days' observations, it's been very interesting to watch the changes and compare observations.
The solar disk had long u-shaped very thin filament looking lines reaching almost from the SE limb to the inward 1/4th of the disk. The opening of "u†was facing outward toward the large prominence on that area of the limb. This was the prominence that I concentrated on today for a sequence that spanned only about 45 minutes' time. Funny, it seemed much longer than that, and as much as it changed in that time frame, I would have expected it to have been longer as well. Seeing was terrific, but transparency was only average with moments of excellent clarity as well as an orange haze all around the disk in my FOV.
Differences in the first two sketches almost alarmed me and I worried that I had made one too compact width wise and the other too spread out. There's a chance that I may have indeed done that, although as a sketcher, I try to make my sketches as true to my observations as I possibly can. Once I recorded the last two, though, I could see the movement of the prominence indeed spreading out, getting fainter to the eastern side of it with each sketch. It was almost as if that side of the prominence was getting weaker and losing structure. I would have loved to stay out all day to record this.
The NE prominence was not quite as tall as the SE prominence, but it was easier to view, although I did have to adjust the outside etalon as there was quite a difference between the two prominences for best bandwidth viewing. I normally tweak as many things as I can with the scope to tease out details in my observations, but I normally don't have to adjust the etalon that much between different prominences.
I observed 8 different areas of prominences around the limb total.

Tough Act
Photographed at Dalhousie University (my old stomping grounds); it was pretty obvious how much I have changed since graduating 3 years ago. It's amazing how a space can appear to have changed so much, but in actuality it really hasn't changed at all because really it's you. These buildings used to fill me with such anxiety, and curiosity at the same time, now they bring back familiar memories of success and lessons learned. When these photos were taken (just a few weeks back) this campus was like a graveyard, as you read this post today it is now full of new hopefuls with budding ambitions.
For the shoot with Matt I opted for a classic look: jeans, white t-shirt, and paired it with a black leather jacket and a punk inspired arm party. Traditionally I seem to lean towards the more "cute" or preppy style, but as I've been getting older I feel like I am starting to gravitate towards more harder hitting New York inspired "street style" fashions. If you would have asked me 3 years ago if I would be blogging about leather jackets, or taking photos with noted photographers in the city, I would have thought you were eight shades of crazy. It's interesting sometimes where life takes you.
There's something about a leather jacket that gives me that extra little bit of confidence; I'm not sure how to explain it really, but for some reason it unleashes my inner rock star, and I feel like I can take on the world. Laugh, please by all means I find this as funny as you do, but in all seriousness I do think that clothing can seriously affect how you feel. Whether it's pretty, flirty, intellectual (see elbow patches and a pipe), daring or just plain happy to be a girl; certain clothing can affect your feelings,mood, and emotions.
What's neat is that the feelings can be different for every person :) so maybe you find confidence in your latest tattoo, or your naughty little nighty; it doesn't matter as long as you enjoy it, and so you should. We put so much emphasis on the size and shape of our bodies and "can I pull this off" or not, and I say absolutely you can just find what works for you and own it.
I'm not saying that you should ever be something that you're not because it won't work. I would suggest, however, being brave in your wardrobe choices. There are SO many glorious items of clothing out there to wear and be worn, (Pinterest can attest to this), and we should be having fun, not worrying about this or that. "If it feels good do it" and if it feels awkward most likely it looks awkward! Figure out what works for you and go for it!
If there's one thing I've learned in all my years, it's that life is too short to not live your life exactly as you please.
Much love to you
Short Presents

The Glenville State College Lady Pioneers handed Alderson-Broaddus a 119-86 loss tonight. The Lady Pioneers got on a nice roll tonight, and it's coming at the right time as they head into the Charleston Civic Center for the second round game against West Liberty State University Wednesday night.

Miranda Reed played a great defensive game for the Lady Pioneers; she was all over the court and had a game high of 6 steals. The Lady Pioneers defense forced 38 turnovers while GSC only committed 15 their selves.
Alderson-Broaddus was led by Lauren Reed with 21 points.
The Lady Pioneers return to action Wednesday against West Liberty State University at the Charleston Civic Center, tipoff is set for 8:30PM.
