My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I have college education and degree.Im in between jobs at the moment but plan on going back to work real soon. Im a machine tecknician and studio musician. I also teach piano on occasion. I'm always reading and ancious to learn new stuff.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Ive been told that I'm too nice and that I have a tendency to get walked on at times but I prefer to look at it as another opportunity to help someone less fortunate than myself. I like to make people lauph and smile. I think a good sense of humor really goes a long way. I really love helping and accepting help from others and working with others to get things done.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I seem to have a good eye for interior design. My selection of furniture and art for my home is very unique. I've been told that I'm very well spoken and should make a profession writing public speaches for Presidential Campains. I have a very strong sense of humor. I always seem to know what to say at the right time and place. Im a good sport when the jokes on me but I always seem to know how to make a good come back when one is needed.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
Hmm I really enjoy old classic black&white movies and TV shows. But I do enjoy movies and some shows of Modern day. My personal favorites would be Polar Express the new Wizard of Oz and Coraline. Horror movies would be Case 39 , The Hills Have Eyes and the Tommy Knockers. As for music I'd say music from the 80's 90's and some of today. That would include Lady GaGa Kesha Rihanna Katy Perry Tattoo and more.
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
Food water shelter family friends God
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
The phsycology of people and why they make the decisions they do. I think alot about world polatics and the apocalypes. Sometimes I am as sharp as a needle when it comes to reading people and I'm usually dead on. People have told me before that I'm just too nice. I do hold alot of sympathy and compassion. I guess it just runs in my family.
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Im usually eating my favorite comfort foods and watching some really stupid movie I found on Red Box that seemed like a good movie to rent at the time ( teasers can be decieving ) I havn't had alot of luck selecting movies lately so maybe I'll leave that up to you lol. I also like watching a good sunset at the beach or just spending time with my friends family and Partner. On occasion I do go to the Gem across the street.
The most private thing I'm willing to admit
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
Well this could either be a strength or weakness. Im very quick to give you my full trust. Im short on judgment and long on compassion. If you make a relationship with me you'll have someone for life if you choose to stay connected. I have a need for physical affection. Not necessarily in a sexual way but more just feeling the love between us. Well I might have said too much already but I guess its better you know now.
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
If your going to take the time to view my profile at least take time to say hi.Oh come on just message me and lets see if we hit it off as friends.

Hazardous Duty (A Presidential Agent Novel)
Item Description
The Presidential Agent adventures return in the most harrowing novel yet in the #1 New York Times–bestselling series.
M exican drug cartels are shooting up the streets of Laredo and El Paso. Somali pirates are holding three U.S. tankers for ransom. The President is fed up and has what he thinks is a pretty bright idea—to get hold of Colonel Charley Castillo and his merry band and put them on the case. Unfortunately, that will be difficult. Everybody knows that the President hates Castillo's guts, has just had him forcibly retired from the military, and now Castillo's men are scattered far and wide, many of them in hiding. There are also whispers that the President himself is unstable—the word "nutcake" has been mentioned.
How will it all play out? No one knows for sure, but for Castillo and company, only one thing is definite: It will be hazardous duty.

|Key Info
Bought by a wealthy Roman, the tiny village of Aquaiura now consists of 5 luxury suites, restored to the highest standard and equipped with everything you can imagine that befits a mediaeval setting.Each suite is at a discreet distance from the other and has its own private garden and/or terrace. This arrangement ensures maximum privacy for all the guests. And, none is more than 2 minutes walk to the large pool.
To date, Aquaiura has been a secret place for world famous celebrities, seeking solace and discretion. Now, Aquaiura has been launched onto the holiday rental market so that you too can experience living like a celebrity – but, not at celebrity rates. Go on, pamper yourselves !
Located in the heart of the village, but still only 1 minutes walk from the pool and the gardens - very private - in the small square in front of the Church (not used as a church)..On the ground floor there is a kitchen with fireplace and a big living/dining room with fireplace.On the first floor there are two bedrooms (one double room + 1 bed-sitting room) with two bathrooms. A very pretty terrace looks onto a beautiful panorama of mountains and wood.
Communal washing machine. Ironing facilities available, by request.
"Staff" consists of a house-keeper and his wife, who live in the village, tend to the grounds and respond to any maintenance issues that may arise.
The "Meals Provided - Booking Possible" refers to the possibility of asking the house-keeper to get take-aways for you from the nearby restaurant. This possibility will be at his convenience but, mostly, it is possible, especially if you are arriving late and have no shopping. However, there will be some provisions left for you in the apartment tide you over.
The coffee maker is a traditional coffee pot and not a machine.
The pool is slightly heated.
The fitness room and the games room are the SAME room, in an outdoor area, away from the suites, where you can play physical games or use exercise machinery, without disturbing the peace and tranquility of the village.

The Umbria region
Spoleto is one the most un-touristy places you will find. Extremely popular with Italians because, not only is it beauitful, but, the Spoletini have remained faithful to their traditions. Here you will find live theatre, operas, concerts, ballets and plays, all year round. But, be prepared to hear only Italian spoken. Unlike, tourist traps, the indigenous Italian has never bothered to learn English. Nonetheless, foreigners are welcomed. Sign language still prevails. And, the language of food, wine and clothes is universal. Further, in Spoleto, as well as the surrounding villages and hill-top towns, sagras take place throughout the year, celebrating the harvesting of truffle, asparagus, olives, grapes, maize, tomatoes....... Halloween and various saints' days. Big spreads are provided, free of charge (or almost), as a kind of offering to the gods, a thanksgiving of good fortune, except that you will be the recipients and not the gods ! Indeed, any excuse will do for a celebration !
Spoleto is the Italians' favourite place in Umbria – some say in Italy. Now, Italy's best kept secret has been revealed. And, Spoleto is enjoying its new found fame. The locals are so friendly. Once here, you are bound in a kinship of love and worship of all that is most precious to the Italian….. sculpture, architecture, works of Art and, above all, food ! Not to mention wine, shopping and the most famous of all activities – the passeggiata ! The bus, at the end of the lane, goes to the top of Spoleto, the famous Rocca and Il Ponte. Very convenient if you fancy walking back home, down-hill, through the pretty, cobbled and arched streets of Spoleto, passing the myriad of shops, bars and restaurants along the way.

If you're interested in using AudibleOddities for your next project and would like to talk, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're always happy to discuss your project over the phone or email.
Please refer to the general topics below for a fairly straightforward overview of what we'll want from you.
Please supply your files in their native resolution. Don't upsample or downsample them. We prefer to work with 24bit files, but we accept any combination of bit and sample rates, and virtually any file type, though Wave and AIFF are the most common.
Be careful to send files that haven't clipped 0dBFS in your DAW and avoid sending songs that have been squashed using limiter plug-ins. In mastering, we can get it just as loud, and usually much louder while retaining more punch and transient clarity. Bypass any plug-ins that exist on the main output channel that you are using solely for level. That's not to say you should remove everything on the master channel, just the final limiter. If there are plug-ins on the master channel, such as compressors or EQ's that you feel contribute to the songs character and feel, by all means leave those there. But it's important that you don't clip the master channel, not only to allow us room to work, but also to allow for as much clarity as possible in the finished product. And as a reference, if you mixed into a limiter, you can also send the version with the limiting or clipping so we have an idea of the level you were shooting for.
AudibleOddities is an Apple approved supplier of MFiT masters. If you're selling your music on iTunes and would like to take advantage of Apple's new "Mastered For iTunes (MFiT)" format, you'll need to supply us with 24bit mixes. Ideally, the sample rates should also be higher than the standard 44.1kHz with 96kHz being preferred, but currently, only the 24bit specification is mandatory. We'll retain this high resolution through the entire mastering path, and carefully prepare the masters according to the MFiT specifications. Masters created for this format can be up to 1-2dB lower in volume to account for inter-sample-peaks (ISP's) and clipping which can become distortion during playback of the AAC format. Put simply, files prepared for MFiT will play distortion-free, providing the end-listener the highest fidelity in a lossy format.
It's helpful if you can point out anything specific about the songs you'd like addressed that you couldn't accomplish in the mixing stage. Include these in the track-notes field located on the project form.
If your project includes cross-fading between songs, send songs that have already been cross-faded and then cut into separate tracks. We can maintain their seamless transitions during mastering. Or, provide us with as specific times as possible regarding your desired overlaps between songs.
Please include fade-out times if you have a specific requirement, otherwise we will use our own discretion when truncating and adding fades to the beginnings and ends of files. If you've already done the fades and/or trimmed the files, let us know and we'll preserve them.
Stem mastering can be a great way for us to correct problems or make changes without affecting other components of the mix. Essentially, we're still just mastering it as we would a stereo file, but because everything is separated into groups, we have a greater degree of control over how we make changes. The main problem we run into is that this process can be mistaken for handling some or all aspects of mixing the song, which we don't do. So you want to get everything exactly as you think it should sound before you print stems.
*Pro-tip: If you're using compressors on the master channel, you can preserve the compression in your stems by feeding the whole song to the side-chain of your master compressor.
When supplying stem mixes, make sure they are synchronized, beginning at the same timestamp. Each stem represents a submix of song components. For example:
Stem 1: Percussive elements.
Stem 2: Bass Instruments.
Stem 3: Guitars, Lead Synths, etc.
Stem 4: Vocals, Chorus.
Stem 5: Hi-Hats, Cymbals, or any intricate detailed samples sitting up in the top of the frequency spectrum.
ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) is the international identification system for sound recordings and music video recordings. Each ISRC is a unique and permanent identifier for a specific recording, independent of the format on which it appears (CD, audio file, etc.) or the rights holders involved. ISRC's are widely used in digital commerce by download sites and collecting societies and they provide the means to identify recordings for royalty payments. In mastering, we can embed your ISRC's into the DDP master as well as your Wave files. You can get your codes by applying here: https://usisrc.org
CD Text is different than what you see when you load a CD into iTunes and the information automagically loads. CD Text is stored on the physical CD for the purpose of displaying album information in compatible CD players. But the information that shows up in iTunes is pulled from online databases, like CDDB or Gracenote. We handle CD Text here in mastering but this online information can be submitted by anyone using iTunes or any equivalent program supporting submissions to online databases. We recommend you take a CD that you get back from replication, insert it into the CD drive in your computer, and then with iTunes, tag the album exactly the way you want it to appear for others. Choose "Submit CD Track Names" from the advanced menu and this ensures you are the first to submit the info to the online database so the information will appear for everyone just the way you intended it.

Seemingly a rolling contradiction in terms, the upcoming MINI SUV model, previously (but probably not officially) known as the Crossman, has been seen out in the wild again. Like before, the little SUV wears very little clothing, leaving almost all of its altered-bits out in the open. After looking at the previous set of spy shots and the newest one here, we just can't see the not-a-Crossman doing any off-roading. Soft-roading... maybe, but we honestly think this is a vehicle that will never see

Re: Coffee and Keyboard....need some advice please in response to laurieandsar
You're correct; you probably do need a new keyboard, however let the keyboard/computer dry out over a few more days. It's the same with R/C cars; if you get water in the motor, let it dry over a few days (Can be up to 2 weeks) and then it should be fine again.
If it was that small amount of liquid then it shouldn't have caused that much harm, just let it dry out some more, other than that you might need a new keyboard
Hope this helps.

In opening our discussion of arms control, it might be best to emphasize at the very outset that here is a phrase which means many things to many men. Its meaning has ranged all the way from self-restraint in weapon deployment to supervision of weapons tests, and from increasing national armaments to their total elimination. In this study, we shall distinguish between arms control and the related concepts of deterrence and disarmament by applying it to any measures which nations take co-operatively (though not necessarily through formal negotiation) to enhance or preserve the stability of an international system short of the elimination of existing weapons. The crucial factors here are the psychological-perceptual, with much less emphasis on modifications in the existing weapon systems.
In Part I, our concern was primarily with the problem of deterring the adversary through the threat of massive reprisal. The question was one of providing the maximum in discouragement and disincentive to those who might be seriously con

Uneven Growth: Tactical Urbanisms for Expanding Megacities
11 West 53rd Street, New York, New York

Trivia: Midnight Nation
- Creator Breakdown: The story derives from one. J. Michael Straczynski writes in the afterword that during a breakdown in The '70s he would go on long, increasingly frantic walks through the city he was living in, and he couldn't help comparing the way the city would look during the daytime and the people that would populate it versus the much seedier side (in the same location) that would come out at night. That was the start of the idea of two worlds living right next to each other but unable to interact, and the story grew from there.

|Video: Adam McQuaid races with royalty
|07.06.11 at 11:04 am ET
While Bruins fans spent the fourth of July eating hamburgers and watching fireworks, B's defenseman and Prince Edward Island native Adam McQuaid did something that would make more than just mullet aficionados jealous.
With the royal couple in McQuaid's neck of the woods for a dragon boat race on Dalvay Lake, the Boston blueliner rowed in Kate Middleton's boat, which was bested by that of Prince William.
"Even though I lost the race," McQuaid told The Guardian, "some people might argue I won because I got to be in her boat."
McQuaid can be seen rowing at 0:27 and 1:10 of the following video, and at 1:33, he even stops to chat with Middleton for a moment. You know the 24-year-old has had a good few months when the only thing he's lost is a boat race in which he hung out with royalty.
|Bruins year in review: Top rookie
|06.22.11 at 3:09 am ET
Each day this week, WEEI.com will be taking a look back at the Bruins' historic 2010-11 Stanley Cup Championship season. So far, we've looked at the goal of the year, fight of the year and save of the year. Up today is the Bruins' rookie of the year, a no-brainer for anyone who followed the championship season.
Brad Marchand: 21 G, 20 A, 41 points (regular season); 11 G, 8 A, 19 points (postseason)
"I was impressed with with Marchy from the moment I saw him play. I obviously wasn't too familiar with him, but having seen him early in training camp'¦ then just build his way up and keep getting better and better, to be honest with you, he was so important to our team. When we were successful, usually Marchy had a big game or played well.
"Playing with Marchy, I enjoyed it a lot'¦ He deserves everything that he's gotten. He's worked for it. He had the opportunity. He made the team and he started with us and worked for his ice time. Rightfully so, he's an important part of this team. To even do what he did in the playoffs, that's even more important, and says more about him as a player that he can step up in those big games."
At the beginning of training camp, Tyler Seguin was a household name in Boston. He was perhaps the only Bruins rookie a Bostonian could pick out of the very lineup Seguin assured he had yet to crack. By the end of the Bruins' Stanley Cup run, people were talking about a few Boston rookies. Seguin's goals got him the hype and Adam McQuaid's mullet got him the cult following and customized t-shirts from Andrew Ference, but no Bruins rookie came close to bringing it the way Brad Marchand did.
When the B's opened the regular season in Prague, Marchand was a fourth-liner who got around 10 minutes of ice time. When the season ended, he had assisted the game-winning goal in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals and scored two of his own. When all was said and done, Marchand hoisted the Cup having scored 11 goals in the postseason, one behind David Krejci for the postseason lead. He worked his way from being a famed member of the Merlot Line with Gregory Campbell and Shawn Thornton to forming perhaps the team's most consistent line with Patrice Bergeron and Mark Recchi, and aside from missing time after being rocked on a beautiful P.K. Subban hip check in December, the 5-foot-9 Marchand looked invincible in the process.
The story of Marchand's preseason confidence has been well-documented. He told both Peter Chiarelli and Claude Julien that he would score 20 goals (the very number Milan Lucic was optimistically aiming for prior to the season) in his first full season. Chiarelli told him to think about what he was saying. While thinking may never be Marchand's game, he certainly backed up his words by popping 21 in the regular season.
The downside with Marchand is that with the good, you must take the bad, but depending on how you look at it, the bad isn't all that bad. He crosses the line often, whether it be with his on-ice actions or words. He was suspended for elbowing R.J. Umberger in the head, but at the end of the day he's a far cry from a dirty player. He's one of the Bruins who have been guilty of embellishment, but with Marchand, it's nowhere near the point of some of the players the B's saw in Montreal and Vancouver. If anyone wants to deem Marchand's feistiness a problem, it's a problem every team in the league would love to have. He's a special type of player, and the B's are fortunate to have someone who's just as good in all three areas of the ice and at killing penalties as he is at getting under opponents' skin and scoring goals.
Now, after a rookie year in which he became a hero in Boston, Marchand will get paid. A restricted free agent, Marchand couldn't have asked for a better time to be due a raise, as it should be a big one. He had a salary cap hit of $821,667 last season and could now get upwards of $3 million.
Just a note before we get to the honorable mention section: While McQuaid was a far more mature player in his rookie campaign and provided far more stability than Seguin did (it's an apples and oranges comparison anyway given the difference in age and position), the argument could be made that the B's could have won the Stanley Cup without him. In this scribe's opinion, the Bruins would not have won the Cup were it not for Tyler Seguin. The youngster may have singlehandedly changed the Eastern Conference finals with his performance in the second period of Game 2. As a result, if we had to make this thing a list, Seguin would be the runner up to Marchand.
HONORABLE MENTION: Tyler Seguin, Adam McQuaid
|Patrice Bergeron skates, Adam McQuaid in for Bruins in Game 1
|05.14.11 at 11:39 am ET
Bruins center Patrice Bergeron skated prior to the team's morning skate Saturday, marking the first time the team's postseason points leader has taken the ice since suffering a concussion in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals vs. the Flyers.
"He went out and just had a light skate this morning," coach Claude Julien said following the team's morning skate in anticipation of Game 1 of the conference finals vs. the Lightning. "That's where he's at now, just a light skate on his own.
"This is something that's just protocol, that he's going through the normal stuff," the coach added. "Today was a light skate on his own, and he just got off the ice when we went on. I don't think there's much more that we can give you except that it can go either way. We're certainly not going to comment on that kind of stuff and just hope that he keeps getting better."
While Bergeron will miss at least the beginning of the series, Julien said that defenseman Adam McQuaid, who sprained his neck in Game 2 of the conference semifinals in Philadelphia, will be in the lineup for Game 1. McQuaid has three points (all assists) and a plus-4 rating thus far in the playoffs.
|Claude Julien: Adam McQuaid 'should be back' for Game 1 vs. Lightning
|05.08.11 at 12:42 pm ET
Though the Bruins are going to be without center Patrice Bergeron (concussion) for at least the beginning of their Eastern Conference finals matchup with the Lightning, they will likely see one player return from injury. On Sunday, coach Claude Julien echoed general manager Peter Chiarelli's comments from a day earlier, telling reporters that the team expects to have Adam McQuaid back in the lineup.
"McQuaid should be back for the start of the series," Julien told reporters. "Things are looking really good for him."
McQuaid has been out for the Bruins since leaving Game 2 of the conference semifinals in the first period. The rookie defenseman went head-first into the boards after tripping over his stick on an attempted hit on Flyers forward Mike Richards.
|Adam McQuaid skates, doing better
|05.06.11 at 5:56 pm ET
Bruins defenseman Adam McQuaid took the ice Friday morning, according to coach Claude Julien. McQuaid has been out with a sprained neck since leaving Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals in the first period after crashing head-first into the boards attempting to hit Mike Richards.
"He's getting better," Julien said of McQuaid. "He skated this morning, and things are looking positive."
Shane Hnidy filled in for McQuaid in Game 3, playing 2:38. He will be in the lineup again for Game 4.
|Steven Kampfer still coming along, Adam McQuaid getting better for Bruins
|05.05.11 at 1:21 pm ET
Bruins defenseman Steven Kampfer, who began skating this week for the first time since sustaining a knee injury on April 9 in an AHL game, still isn't ready to return to the lineup. At any rate, he's just happy to be back on the ice. On Thursday he practiced with the team for the first time since the injury.
"It's good to get back out there. It's been long couple of weeks sitting by and watching, but it's good to get back out there skating and skating with the guys especially," Kampfer said Thursday. "It's definitely a perk. It's moving ahead, but it's always slow [progression] at this time.
"I've still go to talk to the doctors and everything. I'm just kind of cleared just to skate around to test and see how everything is. The flow drills are I've been cleared for, so I've got to see the doctors again before we make any decisions."
As for how he feels out on the ice, Kampfer said that he still feels "the occasional pull," but that he "wouldn't be out there if everything wasn't OK."
Kampfer spent about a day and a half on crutches after a knee-on-knee collision with a Springfield Falcons player while on an assignment to Providence to get some playing time. General manager Peter Chiarelli figured at the time that the rookie defenseman would be out for "at least two weeks," and just less than a month later, he remains out. Coach Claude Julien likes the progress he's seen, but doesn't expect to see Kampfer being in a position to jump in the lineup if need be just yet.
"We had no contact in our drills, so [Thursday] was a very good skate for him. We're moving forward as we're being told by our medical staff," Julien said after the practice. "He's looking better every day, so we just have to stay with it, but he's not ready."
Had Kampfer been healthy, it's possible he could have played in a pair of playoff games to this point. He was going to be healthy scratch for the start of the playoffs, but with Zdeno Chara missing Game 2 of the quarterfinals vs. the Canadiens and Adam McQuaid out with a sprained neck, Shane Hnidy has gotten the call to fill in twice. Kampfer, who played in 38 regular season games, isn't trying to think about what could have been.
"You can think about it, but at the same time, we have eight capable guys who can play. I thought Hnidy did a great job. That's why we have depth and why this team is so strong. We have guys who can fill in at any time. It's a good situation that we have eight D that are ready to go. Obviously it was an unfortunate incident that happened to Adam, but it looks like everything's going to be OK."
As for McQuaid,the 24-year-old defenseman did not skate Thursday and remains day-to-day. Julien noted that he has been encouraged by how he's come along since leaving Game 2 after spraining his neck trying to hit Mike Richards.
"He is definitely getting better," Julien said. "I know we are still saying day-to-day, but there is improvement in him and we are getting very optimistic that things are going to happen quicker than later. Right now we are just keeping our fingers crossed. He seems to be doing well, and hopefully we will have better news here in the next few days."
|No update on Adam McQuaid, Shane Hnidy ready to go for Bruins
|05.04.11 at 11:42 am ET
Bruins defenseman Adam McQuaid was not on the ice for Boston's morning skate Wednesday at TD Garden, a sign that he could be out of the lineup for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals vs. the Flyers. McQuaid left the game in the first period Monday with a sprained neck suffered while trying to hit Flyers forward Mike Richards.
Coach Claude Julien would not offer an update on McQuaid's status, but in the seemingly likely event that the rookie does not play, veteran Shane Hnidy would take his spot.
"Same as yesterday," Julien said of McQuaid's status. "Day-to-day. Nothing more to report on Adam's situation. I know Shane Hnidy is a guy ready to play, and he's certainly a possibility in our lineup tonight."
Hnidy has played in one game this postseason, filling in for an ill Zdeno Chara in Game 2 of the quarterfinals vs. the Canadiens. Hnidy played 4:13 in that contest. After the morning skate, he said he is ready for Wednesday should his number be called.
"The same as any other game," Hnidy said of his preparation. "I've been taking warmups, and it's the same. I'm prepared to play, and you never know what's going to happen, so my preparation doesn't change. I get ready for the game physically and mentally and once gametime comes, I go from there."
Mark Recchi was the only other regular absent from morning skate, though he has been a participant in morning skates throughout the playoffs.

This videocompilation contains footage of the documentary: The Fourth World War!
This documentary shows revolutions from across the world... and it shows that when civilians stand up against their government.. WE CAN WIN!
FIGHT THE NWO!!! ( part 1)
War Is My Destiny :
(Ill Bill featuring Immortal Technique/Max Cavalera)
[Verse 1: Ill Bill]
They killed my entire family
Murdered and tortured, raped and pillaged
I was only five and I was the only surviving witness
My entire village burnt to the ground
He wore a serpent in his crown
Unhappily committed murder with a frown
In an army of black-hooded fiery-skulled generals
And a sorcerer that could cast spells that'll change your genitals
Held me in slavery till I turned eighteen
Killed my slave master, five years later became king
And I slain dragons and ate stakes during famine
Had the seeds of war planted in a dirty tavern
Had the seeds of presidents killed in a burst of anger
And had their parents bleed to death on the floor of a dirty bathroom
I watched their palaces burn, I seen the ashes of my comrades
Returned to their family in an urn
While a proud child remembers his father that died
The cycle continues with vengeance alive in his mind
Refuse, resist, war is my destiny!
Desire unleashed, war is my destiny!
Chaos, A.D., war is my destiny!
Under a pale grey sky, war is my destiny!
[Verse 2: Immortal Technique]
Yeah, yeah, I was an angel before the thud of the stars fell
Cast with the sternum from Satan into the pit of hell
Our beloved leader forced to be a bottom-feeder
The great deceiver that promised victory over the monkey lovers
We took a vulturous structure and traitor, fell upon em
We ripped his skin off and crowned a new son in the morning
A new president to lead our corporation
The vengeance on God and Heaven's domination
But I seduced the daughters of man and made the Nephilim
I demanded human sacrifice from the rest of them
I became the spirit that tortured and protected them
And I built them the tower of language that collected them
And then the Lord cried, water falling out from his eyes
And my children died drowning in the tears from the sky
And it was then that Satan crawled back to me with a plan
A design for the ultimate corruption of man
See back then we used to set the chosen ones on fire
You really think God only sent a single messiah?
And so we allowed the birth of many prophets on earth
And since the followers were human they were born with a curse
They began to claim superiority to their brothers
And for eighty-five thousand years conquered each other
And when they prayed before battle they were praying to me
Killing in God's name cause war is my destiny!

Chapter 3, part 1
Day 3, 1900 hours
Inside her quarters, Kira was working intensely as she reviewed a list of credit transactions of Bajoran military personnel. She sat rigidly on the chair, there were padds scattered everywhere on the desk she was using. For over two hours she had been working, and it was a big sacrifice on her part. She had decided to conduct her investigation primarily after her shifts, so as to keep a low profile on the investigation.
It also meant that Ezri had no idea about the investigation, and Kira was determined to keep it this way. If Ezri got wind of the investigation, she might remove the petition for Bajors request to leave the Federation. Kira really hoped that the abductions were something minor and just the actions of some small extremist group. Yet the evidence was pointing to something much larger, some sort of systemic corruption in the Bajoran military.
Having Odo going over the records was a major help for Kira. It also allowed her to be more thorough with the investigation. Kira was so focused upon the laptop she did not notice Odo walking up from behind.
Have you found anything interesting? asked Odo.
Kira started, she was briefly surprised by Odo's appearance. No I haven't, but there is definitely evidence of illegal transactions of credits. Whoever was involved has covered their tracks well.
We will find something Kira, someone must have slipped up.
However misplaced Odos optimism was, Kira appreciated it none the less. You're being too optimistic Odo.
I was just trying to cheer you up, said Odo ruefully.
While Odo left the room, Kira focused upon the records with even more concentration. Her attention was diverted by a big mail icon which had appeared on the console screen. This aroused Kira's curiosity, and she tapped upon the icon. The icon changed and the whole screen turned black. A message in red letters then appeared.
What the? said Kira in surprise, and she read the message.
If you want your family to live, drop the investigation! We know what you are trying to do Kira, but you cannot stop us. You have two days to comply to our demand. If you refuse to do so, in two days time you will find your daughter's dead body on board DS9!
So shocking was this death threat, that Kira became numb with fear. What if her children had already been abducted? Odo! she shouted as if her life depended upon it.
Odo briskly came into the room. What is it? he asked urgently.
It's this, said Kira and she showed Odo the message. They're going to kill my children Odo! If Mia and Deru are already dead...
There was resounding fear in her voice and she couldn't stop her hands from shaking slightly.
However, when Odo had read the message he seemed to relax. He put his hands on both of Kira's shoulders, trying to calm her. Kira whoever sent the message could be bluffing!
Kira though wasn't convinced. How can you be certain? she demanded, while blinking the tears in her eyes.
Well... Odo hesitated, he was trying to find the right words to say.
Where are our children now? she demanded.
Cautiously Odo removed his hands from Kiras shoulders. In one of Quark's holosuites with Max and Holo, they're doing something called 'skateboarding'.
Confusion intermingled with Kiras fear. What's that?
Er... It's an early 21st century Earth sport, where a person rides on a piece of wood supported by metal axles with wheels.
Relieve showed on Kiras face, her children were safe. Sorry I panicked Odo, I just thought that Mia and Deru may have been kidnapped.
Odo briefly patted her on the shoulder. We never let our children play out on their own. They're supervised by us or by our friends. But just to reassure you I will double the number of sensor sweeps I conduct and increase the station's security. I swear to you, I will not let anyone harm you or our children.
Thank you Odo.
Kira gave Odos hand a brief squeeze and then she let go. As Odo walked out of the room, she remained in her chair breathing deeply. She felt ashamed of her sudden panic attack, though she had never felt so afraid in her life. However, she realised that she was not the aggressive, insanely brave, and risk-taking resistance fighter of 25 years ago. Back then Kira had nothing to lose and she was not afraid to take risks.
Now Kira had two children to protect, and the responsibility was immense. In that moment of fear, she realised just how much she cared for her children. More importantly she would do anything to protect them. For the first time in her life, she understood why her mother became Dukats mistress.
Meru was only trying to protect her children. Kira felt a tiny pang of forgiveness for her mothers actions, though it was a very brief moment of forgiveness. Meru was a Cardassian collaborator and one of Dukats mistresses, and for that Kira could never fully forgive her mother.
Day 3, 2100 hours
Major Dolsur was the second highest ranking Bajoran officer on DS9. He was popular amongst the crew for his honesty and his kind nature. After finishing a shift, Dolsur returned to his quarters. To relax he usually read novels from a pad. Right now Dolsur was resting against his chair, and he felt very comfortable and content. When the door chimed, Dolsur placed the padd on a small stand next to his chair. Come in, he said, his voice was warm and welcoming.
Ensign Farak who was a Bajoran officer, walked into Dolsur's quarters, and Farak looked very preoccupied.
Ensign Farak, is there anything I can do for for you?
I just want to talk to you about something.
Farak did not elaborate, and Dolsur wondered why Farak seemed so timid. Sit down; perhaps you want a cup of Pyrellian ginger tea? he offered.
No thanks, said Farak, and he briefly hold up his hand.
The two men sat down facing each other, Dolsur returned to the chair he had vacated. Dolsur looked at Farak carefully, for some reason Farak seemed brooding and nervous.
After a brief period of silence, Farak spoke up. I've come to you because I'm thinking of resigning from my post. Farak lowered his head slightly; he seemed to be embarrassed by talking to Dolsur. I was thinking of taking this matter up with Kira, but I didn't want to disturb her.
Why do you want to resign? asked Dolsur gently. Personally I think you are a suburb engineer.
Farak clasped his hands together in a nervous gesture. I'm resigning because of... political beliefs.
Dolsur thought that this was a very odd reason for resigning, and he frowned slightly at Farak. What sort of political beliefs are you talking about?
When Farak looked directly at Dolsur, he seemed strangely different, there was now confidence in Farak's eyes. Im talking about Bajoran sovereignty, a Bajor that controls its own destiny.
Dolsur thought this sounded disturbingly like the mantra of extremist groups 25 years ago. I don't understand. The petition that captain Dax sent to the Federation means that Bajoran sovereignty becomes a real possibility!
A look of anger contorted Faraks face, he seemed disgusted by the very mention of the Federation. Even if that were to happen, Bajor would still be dependent upon the Federation for its protection!
So what are you saying? asked Dolsur tensely.
Imagine a Bajor that could properly defend itself. There would be hundreds of warships, thousands of orbital defence pods above Bajor, and major shipyards orbiting around Bajor's moons! With defences like that, nobody would dare to attack Bajor!
Dolsur was surprised by how passionate Farak sounded. Youre probably right there, he said reluctantly. But with all of those armaments, the government would have to spend a considerable amount increasing the military budget. This would be to the great detriment of Bajor's culture and society!
Who said anything about Bajor's culture? said Farak impatiently. What is important is Bajor's economic and military strength. Do you really think that Bajor's culture alone is enough to stop it's enemies from attacking us?
Now Dolsur started to feel sorry for Farak, for Farak was deluding himself if he believed Bajor would ignore it's own culture. Are you saying that Bajor should turn into an industrious place? Where money and power, become the main elements of Bajoran society? I'm sorry, but that would never happen!
Dolsur's stern rebuke did nothing to dampen Farak's passion. I expected you to say that, you place great faith in the Prophets?
The Prophets have guided Bajor this far, and we are still in one piece. Bajor has recovered from the ravages of the Cardassian occupation and still retained its cultural identity!
However Farak shook his head, and a rather dark expression appeared on his face. What if I told you Bajor doesn't need the Prophets?
Dolsur was shocked by that remark, and he was now deeply regretted talking to Farak. But the Prophets form the bedrock of Bajor's culture! he exclaimed. Without our culture a crucial part of every Bajoran would be lost!
The dark look on Faraks face was replaced with an apprising expression. So you firmly believe in the vedek assembly and Bajor's various religious orders?
Of course I do, I-. Dolsur paused, as a terrible idea had occurred to him. Wait, are you saying to get rid of all of that?
Farak gazed intensely into Dolsur's eyes, it seemed as if Farak was weighing Dolsur up. Listen Dolsur I wouldn't be having this conversation if I didn't think you were a suitable candidate for membership in the Reformation Movement!
What is the Reformation Movement?
The Reformation Movement is an organisation inside the military, that is working towards Bajoran sovereignty and the transformation of Bajoran society. The movement believes in a strong Bajor, self-sufficient and well-defended. More importantly, the fundamental believe inside the movement, is that Bajor does not the Prophets for it's survival.
A deep sense of unease filled Dolsur, he didn't like the sound of this Reformation Movement. Are you saying that if you believe in the Prophets you can't join the Reformation Movement?
Farak looked slightly uncomfortable, he seemed to sense Dolsurs hidden anger. Not necessarily, while the movement intends to preserve Bajor's religious order, it is preferable not to believe in the Prophets.
Sounds to me like pious people aren't welcome in this- Dolsur paused, now he was finally making sense of everything that Farak had told him.
Wait! he exclaimed in a hushed voice. Youre trying to remove Bajor's religious order, aren't you? By the Prophets! Dolsur felt the blood from his very face drain away, as waves of shock crashed through his mind. Was your organisation responsible for the abduction of the three vedeks in the Koma Temple?
The tension in the room seemed to increase tenfold, Faraks hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, and he looked absolutely on edge. Listen very carefully Dolsur, you have a choice. You can either join-
Anger built up inside Dolsur, he would not join a criminal organisation. Absolutely not! he shouted. The Reformation Movement is responsible for the abduction of those three vedeks!
Farak looked angrily at Dolsur. Yes it was! he replied heatedly. But what does it matter?
Rising from his chair, Dolsur's fists were clenched, he had never felt this angry in a long time. You're coming with me to station secure-
Dolsur paused when he saw Farak remove a small phaser from a trouser pocket.
There was a somewhat triumphant look on Farak's face, as he aimed the phaser directly at Dolsurs chest. Sit down, before you do something really stupid.
For a moment, Dolsur considered rushing at Farak. But that wouldn't work, for Farak would simply fire his phaser. Reluctantly and slowly, Dolsur sat down on the chair. Are you going to kill me? he asked, and though he sounded calm, his very being was burning with rage.
Farak looked steadily into Dolsurs eyes. As I said before, you have a choice. If you join the Reformation Movement, and tell no one what transpired here, I will leave you unharmed. Immediately afterwards we will take a trip to Bajor, so that you can officially join the movement. However, if you do not join the movement, I will kill you, because you already know to much.
The thought of dying disturbed Dolsur somewhat, but he wouldn't show any fear in front of Farak. Then I guess you will have to kill me! he replied defiantly. Because I am never going to join your little Reformation Movement, for it will destroy everything that Bajor has accomplished over the last 25 years!
Farak looked purposefully at Dolsur, and he had the look of something who had no reservations about taking another life. Are you absolutely certain? said Farak in a chillingly cold voice.
You're not going to get away with this you know! exclaimed Dolsur passionately. You will be caught, and your movement will be exposed!
In a sudden motion, Farak stood up, and his whole face was livid with anger. Nothing can stop the movement, not even your death!
Before Dolsurs very eyes, he saw Faraks finger pull the trigger on the phaser. He saw the bright flash of olive-green light strike his chest. The phaser beam knocked Dolsur backwards, and hit the chair, overturning it. He landed against his back on the floor with his arms splayed outwards.
Intense pain flared in Dolsurs chest, for a moment he could almost hear the Prophets calling to him. Raising his head slightly, he looked at his chest. There was a huge crater-like dent in the centre of his chest, and he could feel the blood poring out from his chest. It was a ghastly sight to Dolsur, but that was the last thing he saw as suddenly the darkness consume him...
Farak walked over and looked at Dolsurs body, there was surprise etched on Dolsurs face. But there was no remorse or regret in Faraks eyes for what he did. A moment later Farak walked over to the replicator, it was time to cover his tracks...

Charlize Theron says motherhood makes her "want to explore real issues" on the big screen

By Gena Oppenheim with reporting by Heather Newgen
Charlize Theron is a mom now, but that doesn't mean she's going to be sticking to roles in kiddie movies. While out at the "A Million Ways to Die in the West" premiere in Los Angeles, the actress told Wonderwall that motherhood has made her want to take on more serious and important roles.
RELATED: Fashion don'ts
"I think it's a personal thing, but for me, having a child only emphasizes how much more I want to explore real issues and things that really matter," she revealed. "Darkness is one of those things that I don't think that I can veer away from just because I have a child."
The "Monster" star, romantically linked to Sean Penn, became more motivated to take part in eye-opening films after adopting her son Jackson in 2012.
RELATED: Celebs without makeup
"When you have a child, you become almost more obsessed with wanting to know why people do bad things," Charlize said. "It doesn't at all make me want to go, 'I'm just going to close my eyes and be naive about it.'"
But her 2-year-old boy has a long way to go before he'll be allowed to watch his mom in any of her dramatic roles.
RELATED: Celebrity baby countdown
"Obviously he's not going to see any of that stuff until he's way older," she explained.
And regardless of her big-screen ambitions, the South African native's first priority is her toddler.
She added: "My work comes way below him so even though I have all of those interests and I want to go and explore all of that stuff, it's when I have time for that."

© Copyright 2015 Newton Citizen
NEWBORN — As the lone person to qualify for the position, Gregg Ellwanger will soon be sworn in as the mayor of Newborn.
The city was to hold a special election on March 18 after the death of former Mayor Roger Sheridan, who was re-elected to serve four years in November.
Ellwanger said he decided to run for the seat because he wanted to continue the work Sheridan had set out to do.
"He (Sheridan) did a lot for Newborn. He improved the roads, worked on a new water system and renovations for the school house," Ellwanger said. "Unfortunately, with his passing in December, at that point someone needed to step up to the plate. I can see a lot of continued progression for the town, yet we can continue to keep the small town atmosphere."
Ellwanger moved to Newborn in 2001 with his wife and together they have three sons. He is a physical therapist at Rockdale Medical Center as well as an athletic trainer.
Some of his goals for office include improving cell phone reception, whether that's drawing in a company to install a cell tower or through the existing water tower; expanding sidewalks; and attracting new businesses.
"I want to keep an open atmosphere where citizens can express their needs. I would like to know about their ideas and problems so we can keep moving forward as a close-knit community," Ellwanger said.
Because he was the only qualifier and no election will be held, Newborn will save around $5,000 to $6,000, according to City Clerk Elisa Rowe.
"The most cost would've been from the early voting required, which would take 21 days, eight hours a day and three people required to be in the office," Rowe said.
Rowe said Ellwanger could be sworn in by the first meeting next month, March 3 or at a special called meeting on March 17.
Ellwanger will join his mother, Councilwoman Martha Ellwanger, on the council, but doesn't expect it to become a conflict of interest.
"Our town is very transparent and I don't expect any conflicts. The mayor position is more of a figurehead for the town," Ellwanger said. "What I hope to do is let folks know who I am and help them continue to enjoy Newborn's quality of life for generations to come."

*Who would have ever thought my moms (Kathy Silverton) small pleasure of knitting tiny hats and blankets for needy children that go home from hospitals with little or nothing to keep them warm would turn into a major knitting charity group called Stitches From the Heart.
It all started about four years ago when I read an article about babies going home with only a diaper. After I told my mom, she started knitting items for the babies whenever she had a few minutes. Right away her friends got involved. After an article was published in the local newspaper about What do You do for Charity?, she was amazed when over a hundred women contacted her to help out. Soon afterwards Stitches From the Heart was born.
Volunteers from around the country send their hand-made items to her West Los Angeles based organization, she then contacts a hospital or charity with a need and mails or delivers a bundle of lovingly made little tiny crocheted, knitted or quilted items for babies , children and families in need. You can help too. All you need is two hands powered by a very big heart.
Shane Silverton
How Many Infants have Benefited From Stitches From the Heart?
In just the first five years since Stitches was started, Stitches has donated over 161,000 hand-made warmth-giving items to over 411 hospitals charities and community centers nationwide. We are so proud of these numbers!!
What you can do to support the worthwhile efforts of Stitches?
There are three ways you can contribute to Stitches. First. As no one in the organization receives a salary, you may volunteer to purchase your own supplies and knit, crochet or quilt items for the babies. Second. If on the other hand, you want to help, but are unable to devote the time to knit, crochet or quilt, you can make a much needed financial donation. Your generous contributions help cover the costs of mailing the clothing to the hospitals throughout the United States. Third. We always welcome those who choose to do both: make hand-made items for the babies and contribute.
Is there anything else that Stitches from the Heart does?
Yes indeed. Stitches From the Heart donates yarn and supplies to many seniors, who want to knit and crochet, but cannot afford to purchase their own supplies. You see, your financial contributions will not only benefit needy newborns, but also bring an added purpose to the lives of many elderly volunteers who take great pleasure in helping these infants.What the hospitals say:
What a surprise and joy it was to receive your package of hand-knitted and crocheted hats, booties, blankets and outfits for our newborns! It felt like Christmas here as we went through your generous and beautiful gifts. You have no idea how grateful our mothers are to receive a new blanket or outfit to take their babies home in...often our mothers ask if they can take their babies home in the hospital shirt and blanket because they have nothing else.
Seton Medical Center, Austin, Texas
At the office, on a very dismal March morning in Pennsylvania, I was suddenly awakened by a most unusual package. A collection of the most adorable hand made baby clothing and afghans from California. What a pleasant surprise and a breath of spring to receive something as special as this. To every one involved in Stitches From the Heart, I commend your hand craft talents, but more important is your giving from the heart.
Chambersburg Hospital
To all the wonderful crafters that made the lovely gifts for our babies. We thank you!! Each piece is so special. The quality of each shows that it was truly Stitched From the Heart. The nurses are always so happy to have something pretty to put on the baby. These things may often be the nicest things the babies will ever have. The colors help take the high tech environment and soften it to be a bit more friendly place. Once again, thank you all for the lovely gifts. Medical University of S Carolina

Hi Gurus,
In Power Center 9.0 we have one feature on lookup transfermation.i.e Return multiple rows if the candition match.
how can we configure this lookup transfermation for getting multiple rows if the canditon match.
Can you please explain this process to me. I want impliment this process in my new requirement....
Thanks In advance.
in the lookup tranformation properties "Look up policy on multipl match", select the option which you want for the output.
I think this option we have in 8 version.
I am asking what is the new lookup feature in V9.
i.e, Multiple rows return.You can configure the Lookup transformation to return all rows that match a lookup condition. A Lookup transformation is an active transformation when it can return more than one row for any given input row.
Transformation guide clearly explains the process, see the transformation guide pageno 245,246..Nothing more to explain
Select lookup transformation --> enter the name for the transformation --> click create , at the bottom you will see return all values on multiple match.
check out the artcle for step by step instruction
Kishu, you are correct!!
we are not able to see that option (use all values) in 9.6.
could you please suggest any one .
Note:In informatica tranformation help that option is available.
got that option,we have to select this option while import lkp table
'Return All Values on Multiple Match
Thanks all
Hello all,
I am using a lookup with property: lookup policy on multiple match=use all values enabled but still only the latest record for the matching condition gets updated.
Unable to figure out how is that possible and If I'm missing something.
