At some point in the last several years, the Mason-Dixon line moved somewhere north of Manhattan. That's the only way we can explain the sudden influx of southern-leaning restaurants serving first-rate fried fowl. Sizzled in skillets or dunked in a hot-oil bath 'til burnished brown, this new breed of fried chicken--served at restaurants ranging from Harlem to hipster Williamsburg--is giving hungry New Yorkers something to cluck about.
The Redhead 349 E 13th Street New York, NY 10009 During weak moments, you can easily overdose on chef Meg Grace's addictive bacon-peanut brittle and soft pretzels served with beer cheese and chips with butter-braised onion dip. Don't. Instead, stuff your gut with chicken that's soaked in brine, given a buttermilk nap, then deep-fried 'til its crunch is as loud as a rock concert. Citysearch
Charles' Country Pan Fried Chicken 2830-2841 Frederick Douglass Blvd New York, NY 1003 Fry daddy Charles Gabriel has reopened his temple to heart-stopping Southern excess, offering up collard greens, sauce-slicked pork ribs, candied yams and, most importantly, fried chicken. His pan-fried birds are beautiful, with crisp, vellum-thin skin wrapped around flesh as juicy as summertime watermelon. What could make the restaurant better? It's an all-you-can-eat buffet. Citysearch
Pies 'n' Thighs 166 S 4th Street Brooklyn, NY 11211 After being shuttered for several years, the cultish Pies 'n' Thighs made a triumphant return to Williamsburg in 2010. Though the location is new, the restaurant's still serving its irresistible mix of sweet-tooth pies (try the banana cream and chocolate peanut butter), biscuits and superlative chicken. It's given a bath in sweet-salty brine, then deep-fried to a crunchy, golden ideal. Citysearch
Brooklyn Bow 61 Wythe Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11211 At this sprawling entertainment complex, you'll find bands, bowling and great Blue Ribbon fried chicken. While getting your fingers greasy on a drumstick might not help you nail a spare, it's worth the risk. The birds are coated in a crunchy mix of matzoh meal and flour, then spicily seasoned with paprika, cayenne, garlic powder and oodles of herbs. It goes great with the honey dip. Citysearch
Buttermilk Channel 524 Court Street Brooklyn, NY 11231 Swing by for brunch or dinner to gnaw on some fantastic fowl at New American standout Buttermilk Channel. Fat pieces of well-spiced, buttermilk-dipped chicken are fried 'til carrot-crunchy, then served atop a crisp waffle shot through with cheddar. Top the glorious mess with a drizzle of sticky balsamic–maple syrup reduction. Citysearch

Angie Wilt, director of operations for Animal Compassion Network, and Buddy check out the Appalachian Animal Rescue Coalition truck that will take Buddy and 24 canine friends to new homes in Massachusetts on Thursday.
- Filed Under
Buddy and 24 canine pals are going to have a great holiday this year. They will be with new families - not in Western North Carolina, but in Massachusetts.
That's because on Thursday, Appalachian Animal Rescue Coalition will begin regular transports to rescue organizations in the northeastern United States, where spay and neuter laws have been so successful that the destination agencies have more people eager to adopts pets than animals available for adoption.
The coalition is a new alliance organized by the Asheville-based Animal Compassion Network, a pet rescue organization that ...

ANAHEIM – Disneyland this week temporarily closed five attractions as the park prepares for next week's celebrity-studded premiere of the upcoming "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" movie.
Crews are building a screen and seating along Rivers of America for the outdoor viewing May 7 of "Pirates of the Caribbean – On Stranger Tides" for celebrities, invited guests and ticket holders. The screening follows "black" carpet arrivals along Main Street U.S.A.
The attractions were shut down Monday and will stay closed for about three weeks. Crews will dismantle the equipment after the movie premiere.
The closed features are: Sailing Ship Columbia, Mark Twain Riverboat, Tom Sawyer's Island, Davy Crockett's Explorer Canoes and the Fantasmic! show.
The attractions are set to reopen May 12. The Fantasmic! show will resume May 14, said David Gill, a Disneyland Resort spokesman.
The latest movie is the fourth installment in the series based on Disneyland's Pirates of the Caribbean ride, which is near the screening area. The film debuts in theaters May 20. Disneyland also hosted the three previous movie premieres and celebrity arrivals, including actor Johnny Depp who plays Capt. Jack Sparrow.
Tickets are sold out, but general visitors can try to get spots along the carpet on Main Street U.S.A. to see the stars. Disneyland will have restricted hours Saturday: 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. for regular park goers.

5.0 stars 7 totalReview Dawn Smith
Posted by a client
Dawn Smith has provided excellent legal advise to me. I have always had a positive experiences & outcomes with her & her firm. I have used her on several occasions through out the years. She is an attorney that I trust whole hartedly & has always steered me right. She is quick to get back to you with any answers to your questions. She has a strong understanding of personalities, special situations, & the emotions involved. Not only does she provide awesome legal representation & stands her ground, she also really cares. I highly recommend Dawn Smith. I will not use anyone else but her.
Posted by Bruce
As a lawyer myself, I'm very selective about the professionals that I choose when I need help. I hired Dawn and her firm to help me with a tricky Guardianship issue. From the beginning, she and her excellent staff put me and my wife right at ease and explained every step of the process clearly and thoroughly. They were great communicators, keeping in touch with me throughout the process. When we made it to the final hearing, the entire Court staff was openly impressed with Dawn's preparation, knowledge and professional demeanor. If you need a lawyer to help your family, you'd be smart to hire Dawn Smith and Smith & Lake.
Posted by Preeti
I first met Dawn to seek expert opinion and was represented by another attorney. The moment I shook hands with her, I knew I wanted her to be my attorney and within a week I became her client. My case is complicated and on going so I am not in a position to discuss it. From the beginning Dawn had a strategy and has given my children and me priority. Day or night she is there for me and acknowledges what I feel as a woman and mother. A true professional strong woman- no wonder she is once again 2015 Georgia Super Lawyer. We have a way to go with my case but I am in the best hands and all will be well.
Posted by Jonathan
Dawn understood my time constraints and did everything within her power to provide timely service even at a time when she was very busy with scheduled court hearings. I felt like my case with a top priority for her and she found a solution by having another partner step in when she was unavailable. I really appreciate Dawn's attention.
Posted by Matt
Dawn could not have been more invaluable to me as I fought to get custody of my two children. She had a winning gameplan and was there to make sure that I was informed and followed that plan to ultimately gain custody in a county that is very reluctant to award custody to fathers. Together we were a great team and got the result that will allow my children grow up in a happy and health environment. I can not say enough good things or thank Dawn enough times for what she did for me and my family. I will be forever grateful.
Posted by Chris
Dawn is a great lawyer. I had used other lawyers prior to engaging Dawn but none were as responsive, knowledgable, or open to sharing process and strategy. I would highly recommend dawn to anyone that needs a skilled competent lawyer that can appeciate your situation, act on your behalf and move the process along while keeping you informed.
Posted by Christopher
To me there is no equal for professionalism, ethics and practical application. Dawn fully represented me while also considering and accommodating the full family dynamic. If mental health issues come into the equation in your custody battle then Dawn is incredibly knowledgeable but regardless of that, in all things related to child custody Dawn is exceptional

Bad news... I'm scared again. Nervous. Wondering how we can afford another one! But...
Good news... My wife is pregnant again!! She's due in mid to late January 2008! WOOHOO! She's going into her 2nd trimester. Just wanted to share with you guys! My 6yo daughter is very excited as well! We were trying earlier this year but gave up since my wife started a new job. Doh! I guess "it" happened anyway! hehe!
Not sure on the sex [of the baby] yet but seeing the baby's heart beat on the sonogram and seeing it move around is just as exciting as it was the first time with my daughter!
And honestly, like my first, I don't care wether it's a boy or girl... I just want healthy. So that's another one of my fears is the health of the baby. So I nag my wife to make sure she takes her vitamins and folic acid everyday.
But I do feel bad because she has "morning sickness" day and night and there's not much I can do to make her feel better. But I continue to ask her... And no crazy cravings yet.
With our first she wanted a specific brand of red herrings in a glass jar. I went to a couple different places and none in stock. So I call her and she gets mad and spells out R-E-D H-E-R-R-I-N-G for me... So I suck it up and look some more. I finally find them and bring home about 4 bottles of the stuff. But she only wanted it at that time so there were 3 other bottles never opened!!! UGH!!
Oh yeah, my daughter is already wanting to have the baby ride in the trailer I got from Tiffanie! hehe!
Anyway... just wanted to share our good news... BF will have a new addition soon!

i couldn't quite find the right liquid eyeliner that i bought from elf but the one i have is the " precision ) its in a straight tube it has a very thin brush that works perfect for me , i highly recommend this, i don't know about the other ones but this one seems very simple to get the thin line you want without struggling :)

My mom bought me this eyeliner at target, because i was out and i guess she didnt know what type i usually wear. I dont like elf products but i had never used their liquid eyeliner So i thought i would give it a try because, why not. But its terrible just like most elf products.I put it on and it took forever to dry. It also showed little patches of my skin if you looked closely on my line. So it had looked like i missed spots. Even when i tried to keep dipping it to get an even line, it still did the same thing. After Realizing how shitty it looked and how difficult it was to put on, i tried to remove it with a makeup wipe. And i guess parts of it where still a little wet or something because a whole bunch of it literally got onto my eye and inside my lid!!!! And yes i know how to remove makeup! It took me a while to get allthe makeup out of my eye but the parts ofthe eyeliner that dried, were a bitch to get off! I have a lot of expirience with makeup because ive purchased so much before. And i know whats good and bad. This stuff is crap! No wonder its so cheap. If you wanna get a gret eyeliner, than get revlons because its only a few more bucks and works great. If you think this elf crap is great, you have no idea what your already missing out on. Nuff said.

Love this liner! It's cheap, it lasts, and that's all that matters! It's pretty pigmented for only being a dollar. All you have to do is set this with some black eyeshadow and it'll last ALL day! Why spend $20 or more on liquid liner when this exists and does the exact same thing?

This is the second best eyeliner under the 5 dollar range IMO. Dries shiny almost matte, stays put till the end of the day but its not the blackest black. For a dollar if I ask for anything more its a crime :)

I love this liquid eyeliner. Been using it for a year now. This product has great pigmentation and is easy to apply. I actually like this better than my wet-n-wild Mega Liquid Eyeliner since the brush is a bit thicker, so you could actually see the line. Unlike, the wet-n-wild one where the brush is really thin, so sometimes I have to double coat it to actually see the effects of the product. The only problem I have for this eyeliner is it doesn't last very long. It flakes off or smudges after 3-8 hours which is disappointing.

This is going into the garbage. Every time I use it patches of the eyeliner disappear before the end of the day. And yes, I use UDPP and a base! Also about half of the time I've used this the normal hydration fluid in at least one of my eyes turns black and stings a little bit as the runny product creeps into the socket. I do not line my waterline or tightline with this, and I don't even line my lower lash line with this because I am so afraid of it running into my socket. Is it an operator error? Perhaps. I am a humble gal and my makeup skills while above average are always a work in progress. However, this has never happened to me before, and certainly not this consistently.
I added a second lippie because the brush is of A- quality. It is just the right length and stiffness. It does gradually narrow at the end but not enough to form a point. I like them to come to a point, but it wasn't an issue with this product as the ends did not separate and cause double application or anything. E.L.F., keep the brush but please improve upon this disaster of a formula!

This is the best liquid eyeliner for the amount of money you pay. Pros: the brush is really thin and it doesn't wear off during the day. Cons: do NOT rub your eyes while wearing it, it makes a mess all over your eye

i bought this on a whim because i decided to start using liquid liners, and i thought a cheap one would be good to start with. the applicator is tiny and its easy to get a precise line, but it is sort of flimsy. i like a stiffer applicator generally. the liner is very black and pigmented. however, this liner wears away SO EASILY. i put it on my hand to test it and i rubbed it after it dried. i could pretty much make the liner disappear. the staying power on my eyes was also not very good, only 2-3 hours and in warm weather it could be gone within an hour. i will not repurchase and will be looking for better liquid eyeliners.

I had to review this product because I just realized how amazing it is. It somewhat fell into obscurity amongst my many makeup products; however, I believe that's because I have been taking for granted its great quality. I say that because it is an official staple black liquid liner that I use everyday with ANY eye look. For just $1 there is no way I can complain about its performance at all. The applicator tip offers good precision, it wears all day without fading, and defines my top lash line to give my eyes a very polished and refined appearance. So, again, for $1...there is no way to down grade this product for any reason. Compared to some other liquid liners (i.e. L'Oreal Infallible Super Slim~$10, Wet 'n' Wild~$3)...I'd say E.L.F. does a commendable job. Seeing as how liquid liners, like all makeup products, range greatly in price and quality, but regardless of which end of the spectrum u purchase from the ultimate mission is to get a great product that's is worth the $, and it's even more gratifying to get ur hands on something that exceeds expectations...this liner by E.L.F. encompasses all. Great value with exceptional quality.

I can't believe this has such low reviews! My HG liner is Revlon's liquid one, however, for $1 this is amazing! The lasting power is just as good. It may not be as dark black as Revlon's, but it is perfect for office days. Trace over the line with a matte black shadow to soften the look. It looks amazing!
It is WATERY, but that problem is EASILY solved by wiping it on the edge before applying. I don't know why people don't think of that. It is a natural and economical product. Not just for beginners, but for people that really know how to use makeup. I got a recommendation on it from a very talented makeup artist.

"Julius Caesar" (1953) is an exciting film about the opulence of the Roman empire during the time of Julius Caesar. John Gielgud plays Cassius, a man who is jealous of the love and honors given to Caesar by the people of Rome. James Mason plays Brutus, who, along with a number of senators, come to the conclusion that in order for Rome to survive, Caesar must be assassinated prior to his acceptance of the title of emperor. But can Marc Antony, played by Marlon Brando, be the voice of reason during this time of trial and uncertainty?

Yes, your garbage rates are going up. As much as 23 percent, maybe. That's what Recology, the local trash monopoly, announced March 15.
The rate hike isn't as bad as some people expected, nor is it as high as earlier predictions. More important, the way the company charges for the three bins we all use is going to change rather profoundly: No more free recycling and compost bins, but you can save money if you cut back on the amount of unrecyclable crap you shouldn't buy anyway that's headed to the landfill.
Here's how it's going to work:Read more »
Sponsors of an initiative to require competitive bidding on all aspects of the city's multi-million-dollar garbage services say they plan to deliver their initiative petitions to the Department of Elections this afternoon. The petitions contain 12,000 signatures, far more than the 7,000-8,000 required, effectively signalling that, even after the city weeds out non-valid signatures, the initiative will qualify for the June 2012 election.
The move threatens to give the Board a political migraine, since the Board is set to vote July 26 on a Department of Environment resolution to expand Recology (formerly Norcal Waste System, Inc)'s monopoly on San Francisco's garbage and recycling services.
In fact, the DoE resolution contains two separate agreements: a $112 million long-term landfill disposal agreement that was competitively bid, and a facilitation agreement that governs how waste is transported to the landfill and that was not competitively bid. As such, the city's facilitation agreement is already the subject of a lawsuit that Waste Management Inc. filed in San Francisco Superior Court last week.
Sponsors of the competitive bidding ordinance, which include retired judge Quentin Kopp, community activist Tony Kelly and Waste Solutions CEO David Gavrich,believe the Board should delay voting on the landfill disposal and facilititation agreements until next summer, after voters have had a chance to weigh in on the bigger question of whether folks want competitive bidding on all the city's garbage-related services, which are worth a quarter of a billion, each year. "
"It would be disrespectful to voters to accept a resolution while an initiative is pending," Kopp stated. Read more »

Peja Stojakovic, F, Dallas Mavericks, 6-10, 229:
Brought in mainly to provide offense when spelling Dirk Nowitzki, Stojakovic had his moments. He was a big part of Dallas' monster 3-point shooting game in the clinching win over the Lakers. But he averaged only 6.5 minutes in four games in The Finals. The Mavericks almost certainly won't re-sign all of their free agents and Peja, who's 34, might not be back.

Reviews for Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta
Sort By :
"Very good and easy. I didn't have 2 cups of heavy cream so I used 1 cup of 2% milk tasted great!"
"I really liked this casserole...my family thought it was just okay. I did omit the bacon and added a little extra ham just to keep the flavors a little more traditional and eliminated the bread crumbs because my family doesn't care for crumb toppings on casseroles."
"I made this casserole and doubled it to feed 12 people. Nothing was left in the pans after the meal. Everyone raved about it! I was actually disappointed that there were no leftovers. I made it exactly as printed, except I used half and half instead of heavy whipping cream, and to save time I used frozen cooked grilled chicken strips, and instead of cooking bacon, I used a jar of Real Bacon Bits. No one knew the difference and it was delicious! This recipe is a keeper."
"Yay! This looks great! And, I am so excited to see a recipe on this site from right here in our happy valley! I live not far from providence. Can't wait to try this. Thanks for sharing. =)"

The Walt Disney Co. China announced it will release a Chinese-language movie, THE MAGIC GOURD, its first co-production with the state-run China Film Group, this summer, reports ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Based on a novel written by the late Chinese children's writer Zhang Tianyi, the film, a mix of live-action and animation, is about a boy who discovers a gourd that, much like a genie, grants him wishes. The story has already been adapted into a TV show by state-run CCTV.
This marks a departure from Disney's established strategy of promoting its homegrown stories and characters, such as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.
Hong Kong special-effects studio Centro Digital Pictures, which worked on KILL BILL, produced the movie, AP reports.
"We respect and appreciate the deep-rooted rich Chinese local culture," Stanley Cheung, md of Disney China, said in a statement the news service carried.
The AP story points out that Disney has been flooding the Chinese market with its content, opening more than 4,200 "Disney Corner" merchandise outlets in stores around China. A TV show launched in 1994 that promotes Disney cartoons is seen on more than 40 channels. Disney also publishes cartoon books, and the stage productions "Winnie the Pooh," "The Lion King" and "Disney on Ice" have all been performed in China.
Disney movies EIGHT BELOW and CARS were also shown in Chinese theaters last year.
The company has also partnered with Shanda Interactive Ent. to develop an online game in China based on Disney characters.
Hong Kong Disneyland opened in September 2005, but the park fell short of its first-year attendance target of 5.6 million.
The Chinese government carefully controls media markets and products, and has banned foreign cartoons from primetime television.
Disney Channel Worldwide president Rich Ross told THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, in an interview last year, that Disney wants to launch a channel in China.
"In China, because it can't fully enter local media and entertainment due to legal restrictions, the spread of Disneyland culture is greatly limited," said Wang Ran, chief executive of China eCapital Corp., an investment bank specializing in the media industry.
Commenting on "THE MAGIC GOURD, Disney China's Cheung said, "In addition to bringing more Disney family entertainment content to China, we attach great importance on finding locally relevant and appealing content which complements our existing story values."
Being a Chinese co-production, Disney won't have to worry about having THE MAGIC GOURD included in China's annual quota of about 20 foreign films.
Nor should it have any problems clearing the Chinese censors, according to Wang. Not only aren't they political, he said, but, "for children's cartoon characters, they carry more common cultural denominators."

Get the fuck off my couch
Today, I heard the same sanctimonious, self-righteous line that I've heard over the years from every deadbeat, unmotivated, lazy hippie/roomate/boyfriend I've ever had/known:
"Well, everything I own could fit in this backpack/truck. I'm not a slave to my possessions, man."
Well, I have a response for you (especially the hippie who pooped in my yard):
GET THE FUCK OFF MY COUCH. That's right, my comfortable couch that I've let you sleep on - I own that couch and bought it with money that I earned at a job. Furthermore: stay out of my bed, give me back all the books and movies and cds and clothes I've loaned you, turn out the lights cause it's my electricity, get off my computer, figure out how to cook and eat your food without my pots and pans and plates and silverware, give me back the pictures taken with my camera, stop watching my TV while sitting on my couch, and take a walk to wherever the fuck you need to be because my car is no longer in your service!!!
Materialism warps peoples' minds, yes. But I don't own anything (except my grandmother's desk, perhaps) that I wouldn't mind selling in a minute if an opportunity came up to lead a better life in a non-material world. The thing is, you and I both live in the US, and without these many things that I own and you use you might as well be living on the street. "Well, I'd rather live on the street than sell out?" You say? THEN GET THE FUCK OFF MY COUCH and live on the motherfucking street!
I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm a generous person. I don't want you, sweet hippie/roomate/boyfriend, to live on the street, or with your evil mother which is where you were before you sweet-talked your way here. So I let you use my stuff which prevents ME from living on the street. And all I ask in return is that you not look at me, and my stuff, with holier(earthier?)-than-thou disdain and lecture me on the evils of owning stuff when you use it just as much, if not more, than I do.
If you want to lecture me on the comfortable lifestyle I share with you, my couch is not a soapbox, so GET THE FUCK OFF MY COUCH.
Thank you.

Suppose that there is a company named Megasoft. Megasoft has just launched their new software application to the public called Softronic. Which is correct: Softronic by Megasoft or Softronic from Megasoft?
Both are fine.
This implies that Megasoft made Softronic.
This only tells you that Megasoft is the source. They might have made it, or they might just be the distributors.
I said implies, but bear in mind that salespeople often imply things that aren't true.

During the design phase for a website, application, etc., the first stage involves defining the toolтАЩs users. During this stage, which is also known as тАЬuser modellingтАЭ, information is collected on the potential users (based on segmentation, user profiles, surveys, interviews, focus groups, etc.), taking into account aspects such as their information needs, experience or knowledge.
Personas and scenarios are two techniques that let designers and developers come up with and implement solutions for the tool that take into account specific people, with specific profiles, skills and needs.
The solutions implemented respond to real users and real needs.
Personas are descriptions for standard users of the tool. The descriptions use a narrative form and give the figures a specific identity. Some of the details to be included are:
- geographic profile
- demographic profile
- psychosocial profile
- the relationship between the persona and the product
- the level of relationship between the persona and the application
Scenarios describe the interaction between a persona and the application in a particular situation and with specific aims. In other words, they reflect tasks that users have to develop and the context in which these are developed. The scenarios are described in a direct narrative form.
Here at the UOC Library, we have recently started to work on offering contents and services via mobile devices. With this mind, we have defined personas and scenarios that will let us work on the mobile website and the mobile application for Library contents and services while keeping real users in mind.
Here are our personas:
Original document (full version):┬аhttp://hdl.handle.net/10609/38981┬а(Spanish version).
Related links: Human-Computer Interaction learning materials, in UOC OpenCourseWare (Spanish version).
The only way you can offer users a great service is if you know what they need and, thus, provide the services and contents that might be of use to them and do so in a way that is as usable as possible.
There are many ways to get to know your users. Here at the UOC Library we periodically carry out a series of actions to obtain this information that we need to be able to offer the best possible service.
- User tests. This is one of the tools that best help find out about users, their information consumption and browsing habits, etc. User tests are carried out to assess the usability of the tools on offer. Likewise, all the user tests and surveys carried out at the University are monitored and analysed to gain the widest, most comprehensive profile possible.
- Analysis of the Library Replies service. Every three months, we analyse the queries received by the Library Replies service, the LibraryтАЩs user help service. This analysis helps detect the main problems users have and assess any possible actions to resolve them тАУ for example, whether to improve the description of a service or highlight certain information or features.
- Analysis of resource use. We periodically analyse the usage data for the electronic resources and the tools to manage them (the Library website, discovery tool, link resolver) and look at the search terms used. These data let us improve the different ways of accessing resources such as the recommended links from classrooms, pre-configured subject searches, resources of interest, etc.
- Feedback from faculty. The subject librarians are also in regular touch with the faculty at the different departments which lets them keep track of their needs and proposals for resources and services тАУ for example, whether they need to jointly produce a selection of resources for subject areas or improve access to resources from the virtual classrooms, etc.
- Analysis of use of the LibraryтАЩs website. We monitor the pages that are most and least visited, user browsing behaviour, sources of access to contents, etc.
All these activities and the data they provide form part of an analysis, assessment and action design process for continuous improvement and adaptation to user needs and the changes in these needs brought on by the evolution of the UniversityтАЩs teaching.
Recently, and coinciding with the start of the new semester and academic year, the UOC Library added to the collection of training videos for users on its website. Ten new short videos subtitled in three languages (Catalan, English and Spanish) have been added. They offer specific training on Library services and resources (loans and databases), on searching for specialist information (theses, patents and statistical data) and on information management.
This is further proof of the UOC LibraryтАЩs firm commitment to self-training and audiovisuals to help users both when it comes to using the LibraryтАЩs services and resources and to basic information skills that allow them to find, use and manage information themselves.
We feel that multimedia тАУ which in most cases takes the form of short videos involving screencasts and subtitles, what we call knowledge pills тАУ is the format that best meets the current training needs of our users.
We remain committed to offering this kind of training and trust that we will be able to add to the catalogue of videos in response to the needs and suggestions of our users.
All these videos, and all the other training videos, can be found in the тАЬHow it worksтАЭ section of the Library website: http://biblioteca.uoc.edu/en/how-it-works.
Are you interested in knowing open or freely online┬аinformation resources in the field of Law and legislation?
In the UOC Virtual Library website, we've just included the Open Law Resources dossier┬аto gather┬аthe┬аmain open o freely accessible resources on the field of Law mainly focussed in the area of Catalonia and Spain.
Do you know that our public administration has to fulfill the┬аobligation to publicize the┬аlaws and regulations┬атАФas well as other dispositionsтАФ, before its application, according to the principle of information disclosure? Yes, that is.┬аSo, currently all the Spanish and regional legislation is freely accessible on the Internet in official gazettes or diaries, in legislative compilations at┬аwebsites of various government or public entities, etc.
We have mentioned before how the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) manages its technological projects from an Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) perspective and, with this in mind, it has attended the International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction for some years now.
This conference sees scholars, researchers, companies and institutions present their projects and studies in the field of HCI.
The latest edition of the conference took place between 22 and 27 June in Crete, Greece. There were 2,000 participants, 238 posters and 244 parallel sessions.
The UOCтАЩs involvement included the presentation of the poster on тАЬCustomization, Transparency and Proximity: A User-Centered Content Strategy Applied to the Design of a Virtual Library WebsiteтАЭ by Mireia Leg, Mireia P├йrez and Pablo Rebaque, which detailed the content management strategy for the LibraryтАЩs new website, which has been redesigned using a User-Centred Design (UCD) methodology.
The aim of the redesign was to provide users with more intuitive, usable and understandable content (textual content, resources and services) by implementing criteria of customization, transparency and proximity. The study also presents a selection of best practices for applying these criteria to the design of other library websites.
The University also presented three papers. Roger Griset presented тАЬCourse Sprints: Combining Teacher Training, Design Thinking and HackathonsтАЭ and Enosha Hettiarachchi presented┬атАЬDesigning learning tools: the case of a competence assessment toolтАЭ and тАЬTeaching and Learning HCI OnlineтАЭ, the latter on the experience from the UOCтАЩs postgraduate course on HCI.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. Adopting an animal can be an extraordinarily rewarding act; giving a safe and loving home to a pet in need. But sometimes caring for those animals can come with complications.
Cases of the highly contagious skin infection ringworm are not uncommon in shelter pets and vets say it can easily transfer to people as well.
"You want to just be clean," says Dr. Caylie McClure. "Wash your hands, obviously don't touch the infected area and if you do, wash your hands immediately."
Ringworm can live both on a body and out in the environment for an extremely long time, animals can even get it from soil that has infected hair on it.
Vets recommend keeping your pets clean, especially after letting them play outside or with other animals.

Julian Edelman got letters, stacks of them, but no scholarship offers.
Then, one day, the phone rang. Finally, an offer.
"I thought it was Kentucky State or something like that," said Edelman, the quarterback for College of San Mateo, a community college located on the San Francisco Peninsula. "I was like, 'What's Kent? Maybe Kentucky, abbreviated.'"
Edelman thought for a moment, recalling those high school U.S. history classes. Kent State? Hmmm
"I had heard about May 4, 1970 -- something when the National Guard shot four students," Edelman said. "I remember learning about that.
"I didn't know they had a football team or anything."
Daniel Muir grew up on the other side of the country in Lanham, Md., a suburb of D.C. But like Edelman, Muir knew next to nothing about Kent State or its football program.
"People only know it for basketball," said Muir, a 285-pound defensive tackle. "Some people didn't even know we had a football team."
He paused.
"Now they know."
In a flash, make that a Golden Flash, Kent State football has an identity.
After a typical 1-10 flop last season, Kent State is off to a 5-2 start, its best in 19 years. The Flashes are 4-0 in MAC play for the first time ever and lead the East division by a game over Ohio (5-3 overall, 3-1 MAC), which visits Dix Stadium on Saturday.
Other Kent State milestones include: first five-game winning streak since 1976, first nonconference road win since 1987, first homecoming win since 2001.
"A lot more people are noticing us now," Muir said.
But before Kent State could earn respect from outsiders, it had to start respecting itself.
For years, Kent was college football's cesspool, a place where coaching careers died and road wins were sure things. Winning seasons were rare (only one since 1987), and losing became the custom (six streaks of 10 or more losses since 1972).
The best stiff-arms at Kent came from students who wanted nothing to do with the team. And though the school is located in the recruiting hotbed of northern Ohio, Kent couldn't get top prep players to bat an eyelash its way.
"The players, all they would ever here is negative things about the football program," third-year coach Doug Martin said. "And rightfully so. We hadn't had any success. Convincing them that they could do it when they're hearing nothing but negative things from the outside was a tough thing to overcome."
Martin credits Laing Kennedy for being "the only AD in the country that would have hired me." Given the program's sorry condition, though, Martin's statement easily could have been flipped around.
"There was no training table for the players to eat," Martin said. "The nutrition system was really bad. We had players losing 25 pounds over a season my first two years."
There were other snags.
"The video system, ours was really outdated," Martin said. "Our meeting rooms were not air-conditioned. They weren't really usable. And then we had a team roster cap of 95, so you can only take 10 walk-ons. That hurts you in practice, it hurts you in recruiting, it hurts a lot of things.
"There needed to be some things done from the administrative side."
Kennedy came through, leaving Martin to clear the bigger hurdle, Kent's losing tradition. Martin had helped cultivate East Carolina's renaissance -- the Pirates went to five bowls in his 11 years as an assistant -- but Kent was a greater challenge.
The Flashes flirted with success in Martin's first season, going 5-6 and finishing with a four-game win streak, the program's first since 1976. But injuries and youth punted them back to the basement in 2005, with their only win coming against Division I-AA Southeast Missouri State.
Muir said things began to turn at spring ball, when the team passed up its cozy indoor facility to practice in the snow. Every day.
"A couple guys came out complaining, but the coaches didn't say anything," Muir said. "The players got on each other. The coaches didn't have to. They could just coach."
Kent had a foundation in the secondary -- it ranked 24th nationally against the pass last year -- but it lost games at the line of scrimmage. The defense finished 106th nationally in rushing defense (202.6 ypg), while Kent's offense averaged 27 fewer rushing yards (45.9 ypg) than any other Division I-A team.
Martin needed an answer and found one in Edelman, an academic qualifier who wanted to spend only one season in junior college.
"We kind of come from the same background," Martin said. "He plays with a chip on his shoulder because nobody recruited him. I was always the kid from the wrong side of the tracks. Wanted to play Division I football very badly and didn't get recruited very heavily, either.
"But I wasn't the player he is."
Edelman ranks second in the MAC and 26th nationally in total offense (234.1 ypg). He ranks fifth among Division I-A quarterbacks in rushing average (59.7 ypg), providing a counterpunch to running back Eugene Jarvis (82.3 ypg).
Martin said Edelman runs as well as former Flashes quarterback Joshua Cribbs, now a wide receiver with the Cleveland Browns.
"I was told that I couldn't play at this level all my life," Edelman said. "I was told I couldn't play quarterback all my life. It just motivates me. I wasn't supposed to be here."
On defense, it was a matter of getting older and tougher. The Flashes had five returning starters who were freshmen or sophomores in 2005.
Muir and Stevon Moss guide an assertive front seven, which ranks 11th nationally in sacks (3.43 spg), but the unit is highlighted by a veteran secondary. Free safety Andre Kirkland (team-high 59 tackles, 2 INTs, 6 pass breakups) and cornerback Usama Young (four pass breakups) have lifted Kent to 14th nationally in pass defense (154.1 ypg) and ninth in pass efficiency defense (97.8 rating).
For dark-ages survivors like Muir, Kent's U-turn and the renewed buzz on campus has been especially gratifying.
"Students knew we had a football team, but nobody really respected it," he said. "When we're in the game, it's hard to hear the calls now. You could hear a bird chirp out there a couple years ago."
Added Martin: "Last year, we'd play in front of 8,000 people. This year, we haven't had a crowd less than 22,000. This place has been hungry for this for a long time. They're finally getting what they've been waiting for."
The fans' decade-long wait for a home win over rival Akron ended Sept. 30. But Kent is hoping to end a longer drought and reach its first bowl since 1972 (Tangerine).
"All of us weren't even born then, so it would really get this program jumpstarted," Muir said. "It would mean everything."

Kidal rocked by car bombingComment on this story
Bamako - A car bomb exploded in the remote northern Malian town of Kidal on Tuesday, Mali's army said, the second attack there in less than a week as Islamist rebels step up a guerrilla campaign.
French forces have been stationed in Kidal since driving out al-Qaeda-linked fighters late last month as part of an intervention against the Islamist militants who had seized the northern two-thirds of the West African country.
Malian army spokesperson Modibo Nama Traore said a car bomb had exploded in the town, which lies close to the Adrar des Ifoghas mountains where the Islamists fighters are still battling French and Chadian forces.
Members of the MNLA Tuareg insurgent group, which returned to its traditional stronghold of Kidal after the Islamists fled, said the car bomb exploded at one of their checkpoints at the south-east entrance to the town, killing at least four people.
A Malian intelligence source said three other vehicles had been destroyed in the attack. - Reuters

That made me so wet. That's exactly how my man and I fuck. The tan lines on his ass and on his dick were a bit of a turn off though.
The reason why his dick is like that is because he is circumcised.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The state Court of Appeals has ruled that Tennessee's tax on illegal drugs is unconstitutional.
The levy known as the "crack tax" allows the state to confiscate belongings of people who haven't bought tax stamps for controlled substances, including cocaine, crack, methamphetamine and marijuana and moonshine.
The appeals court ruled that the state can't require a tax on items it considers illegal. The opinion called the drug tax "arbitrary, capricious and unreasonable."
The ruling upholds a lower court's decision. A spokeswoman for the state Department of Revenue did not immediately return a message seeking comment.
Tennessee collected $1.8 million from the tax in 2006.

Winning the World Car of the Year title is the best promotion any automaker can probably wish for. Plenty of media coverage plus the title no other automaker can use.
And the finalists are:
– Audi A4/Avant
– BMW 7 Series
– Citroën C5 Sedan/Tourer
– Fiat 500
– Honda Jazz/Fit
– Jaguar XF
– Mazda6/Atenza
– Nissan GT-R
– Toyota iQ
– VW Golf VI
The struggle will end on April 9 at the New York International auto show. In addition to WCOY the World Performance Car, World Green Car and World Car Design of the Year awards shall be announced and presented there.
So it's a tough call. What would You do in this kind of situation? Fortunately it is not for any car Czar to postulate. The vehicles are selected and voted on by a volunteer jury of close to 50 distinguished automotive journalists representing many of the world's most renowned automotive outlets.

Hausmarke (house brand, store brand, private label) is a term defined in Germany as a brand given by a wholesaler or retailer to a product manufactured by another company.
If the manufacturer markets it for his own under an own brand one would not call this a Hausmarke. Mirko is right on this.
Though the term is not best chosen. A less-ambigious and and also common term for the same thing is Vertriebsmarke (re-sale brand).

Re: Mass Effect 3
^Interesting, when I got to it with my Infiltrator playthrough, my thinking was that Citadel should go *before* Thessia. the idea being that the ship had just been in a major fleet battle (hence the need for maintenance) and everyone is on a high after taking down a second destroyer. I guess I just can't see anyone in a party mood after Thessia. Plus of course you're called back to the Citadel by the Asari councillor prior to that mission anyway.
Omega and Leviathan can fit just about anywhere, but I tend to place Omega before the coup attempt to make it seem as if the coup was a reaction to the increased pressure and losing their free reign of the terminus systems. My original thought was that it'd be between Sanctuary and Cronos as part of the "take down Cerberus" campaign. Indeed, had it been part of the main game I'd have had Omega being where you get the location of Cronos, but as it stands the lack of Normandy/squadmate involvement rather spoils it from a narrative perspective.
Leviathan...it's a bit harder to place, but I think the best place is after the Asari monastery (so not to spoil the Banshee reveal) but before Rannoch. Of course the way the quest chain works you can spread it out across the whole game, which actually might work better as a sort of running sub-plot.
Either way, in my mind once Thessia falls the game enters the final act and the plot starts to go at a dead run. At which point, if it were a book, film or TV series I don't think the story needs any more side stories or other distractions, so I like all the DLC over and done with by then.
The party is the only exception to that as tonally, it best fits *after* playing the ending. I won't pretend that Shepard survives and everything turned out fine, so if I ever do it that way, it's hallucination/afterlife type situation...since, after all, you *do* meet Garrus at the bar.....

Reviews for Raspberry Peach Jam
Sort By :
"I have made this jam three times now and each time I have very much enjoyed it. Love that it doesn't require pectin, so i always have the ingredients on hand. Have made with strawberries as well, great combo."
"good but not quite as good as my raspberry jam"
"This recipe is spectacular! I never make jam without pectin because I want to make sure that it sets. But the directions for boiling ensures that the jam sets perfectly. Thank you!"
"This is an awesome recipe! I added blueberries in place of some raspberries. Turned out nicely!"
"LOVED this recipe. I am new to making jam and have never made jam without pectin. The changes I made was that I used Costco's organic frozen raspberry/blackberry/blueberry fruit and put it in the blender to puree. Measured then put in pan. I did the same with fresh peaches. Decreased sugar to 2 cups and still used 1 1/2 tsp lemon. I followed the exact directions with regards to boiling, etc. Turned out really good and it is not runny. It is a soft jam. SO GOOD!"

Jamaican jerk sauce
Cold, Hard Football Facts for Aug 14, 2006
We were looking for a kick-ass Jamaican jerk sauce recipe when a friend of the Cold, Hard Football Facts sent us a recipe from something called "The Sugar Reef Caribbean Cookbook."
We were impressed – but not at first.
The problem with most sauces that you use for cooking is that you really don't know how good (or bad) they are until after you cook with them. Typically, the cooking process changes the flavors of a sauce so that what you get at the end is different than what you had when you started out. It makes developing your own sauces rather difficult, because you then have to go out and cook with it. The trial-and-error process can become time-consuming.
This is one of those sauces that changes as you cook. It was just O.K. after we blended everything together. But it tasted truly great when we used it on some grilled chicken wings and breasts. The flavor really came out after the chicken was grilled up nice and crispy. The original recipe did not have salt, except that found in the soy sauce, one of this jerk recipe's liquids. We thought it needed a little more salt to help bring out the flavor, so we added a bit.
You'll probably want to make a double batch for your tailgate. Use half of it to marinate your chicken wings or breasts.
Take the other half, heat it to a boil and then simmer it for a while to reduce it down. You'll get a thick, chunky jerk sauce you can use for dipping or for coating your chicken while it cooks.
- 1 habanero, seeded and finely chopped
- 3 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 Tablespoon ground allspice
- 1 Tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground sage
- 3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 Tablespoons garlic powder
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3/4 cup white vinegar
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- juice of 1 lime
Finely chop the habanero, green onions and yellow onion and set aside. (After handling the habanero, wash your hands well before touching sensitive parts of your body – or you will be sorry.) Mix the allspice, thyme, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, sage, nutmeg, cinnamon, garlic powder and sugar in a large bowl. Mix the olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, orange juice and lime juice in a separate bowl, and then whisk into the bowl of dry ingredients to blend well. Add the chopped habanero and onions and mix well. Use half the sauce to marinate chicken wings or breasts for at least an hour (you can also marinate shrimp, but for no longer than an hour). Boil the other half to reduce and use as a dipping sauce. Cook the chicken or shrimp over a hot grill. If you want some extra falvor, dabble sauce on the meat as it cooks.

Chapter Eighteen
Arnav, khushi and Anjali stayed up the whole night waiting for Shaurya but he didn't turn up. Anjali's annoyance with him vanished leaving a gut wrenching concern. She sat in silence eyes closed, muttering 'please let him be fine' in a low voice like a prayer. In that moment nothing mattered but the life of the only person she had truly loved. All her insecurities had no place and she didn't care if he betrayed her, didn't care if he would leave her, didn't care that he had loved Avisha perhaps still loved her. All that mattered to her was his safety. So what if she had to let go, so what his absence would kill her, so what if she would never really be happy, as long as she knew he was fine and happy she would live the rest of her life on those precious memories he had given her. She could feel Khushi tense and praying beside her too. Arnav was busy on the phone trying to trace Shaurya but in vain. He then sat besides her and held her hand
"Di, you still don't believe Shaurya has let you down, do you?" he asked kindly
Anjali kept quiet, the tenacious part of her heart which had once belonged to Shyam not letting her to give in completely. When she didn't reply Arnav continued
"Di Shyam married you for money. Shaurya has no such reasons. He has enough money earned in his profession to last for a lifetime and secondly his dad is the owner of a vast chain of hotels of which Shaurya is the only heir. He loves you di." Arnav reassured
Anjali wasn't sure about that but she knew one thing. She loved Shaurya completely. Loved him without expecting anything in return and she knew she wouldn't regret an instant of it.
"I don't care if he doesn't love me. I just want him to be fine." She replied quietly
Arnav understood how di felt. Loving khushi the way he did, he knew there was no life to him without her. He looked at her wondering if she would ever feel this way about him again. Love him in the way he loved her, love him in the way di loved Shaurya. Loved so much that nothing mattered except her happiness. But it hurt. God, it hurt when he looked in her eyes and didn't see the person who loved him but saw the person who had once loved him.
It was in the early hours of the morning that Shaurya returned. Anjali walked up to him, gave him a long look as if to check if he was really okay. Shaurya opened his arms to hug her but Anjali ignored him and limped to her room closing the door behind her. Arnav put his hand on Shaurya's shoulder telling him to give her time and that she would come around.
"Bhaiyya what took you so long?" khushi asked Shaurya. She had begun to call him bhaiyya because he was the only brother figure in her life.
"Had an emergency khushi. I was off duty but we are understaffed at the hospital." He told her tenderly. "I'm tired. I haven't slept for forty eight hours. I'll go catch up on some sleep." He said walking towards his room.
Khushi rubbed her tired eyes with the palm of her hand. The sleepless night caught up with her and she felt the room spin and the next moment she was in Arnavs arms as he lifted her off her feet smiling knowingly.
"Do you have to swing me up in your arms at every opportunity?" she asked brushing a hand across her eyes.
"Do you have to swoon around me at every opportunity? He mocked his eyes warm and smiling.
"I don't swoon around you." She said incredulously
"You have a weird way of showing it." He replied as he carried her upstairs to their bedroom. He entered the room but didn't put her down. Instead he looked in her eyes and said
"For a record, you don't have to swoon around me. Just say the word and I'll carry you whenever you want, wherever you want."
Khushi felt blood rush to her cheeks. She wanted to give him a sarcastic reply but instead her brain had a nasty idea to go blank and all she could do was lie limply in his arms blushing furiously. Arnav laughed openly and khushi marveled yet again at how much he had changed from the arrogant reserved person she had met.
He gently set her down on the bed and walked to the door calling out to OP. khushi heard him shout when OP took his own sweet time to turn up. 'Well some things never change' khushi thought as Arnav ordered OP not to disturb them in his typical laad governor voice. Finally khushi felt his weight on the bed as crawled in beside her and she shut her eyes purposefully. She heard his soft laugh and then he pulled her in his arms and held her lightly against him. Khushi didn't protest. After all who would know better than her, how fragile these moments were, how fragile tomorrow was...
Anjali entered Shaurya's room closing the door softly trying not to disturb his peaceful slumber. She looked at his handsome face and once again sent a prayer of thanks to god. A loud ring of his cell phone made her jump. She quickly switched the phone to silent mode and went outside the room and answered the call. A tired voice said from the other end
"Can I speak to Dr Shaurya?"
"He is resting at the moment. Can I take the message?" Anjali asked kindly
"You must be his wife I didn't know he was married. I called to thank him for saving my daughters life. It's the result of his efforts last night that she has a fighting chance. May god give both of you all the happiness beta."
Anjali felt a rush of guilt when she hanged up. Shaurya had spent the whole night working and she hadn't even spared him a smile. She felt tears of remorse well up in her eyes. She went into his room and quietly kissed him on his cheek. 'I have made you pay for Shyam's mistakes but not any more.' Not wanting to disturb him further she turned to leave but accidently knocked his wallet. It fell down giving her a glimpse of a picture.
It had been an old picture of hers during the time she had first known Shaurya. She extracted it out to have a closer look, her heart beating with elation. She turned it around and found something written in Shaurya's untidy scrawl.
'ANJALI. My precious gift. My very own Avisha. Love you baby. Now, always and forever.'
Anjali's eyes filled with tears of happiness. She felt as if everything she had dreamt of became real along with everything she had been too scared to dream. She felt Shaurya's eyes on her and realized that he was awake.
"Looks like my secret is out." Shaurya said sleepily smiling tenderly at her.
"Me... Avisha..?" she asked confused, too scared to hope.
"Yes Anjali you are Avisha. The patient I fell in love with. The girl I will love till the day I die." He replied
"But why Avisha?" she asked as he sat up tiredly
"Anjali means 'a gift' and Avisha means ' a gift' too. That's what I used to think of you. My own personal gift from god. Being the only son of a multimillionaire, I had a lot of attention from the media and I fuelled it further with my playboy reputation. I didn't want you exposed to that. I loved you too much to expose you to it."
He smiled sadly
"I destroyed both of us because of that. Because I loved you too much. My father had a heart attack and I had to go to London. Suddenly I had too many responsibilities. I couldn't tell you to come with me. You were hardly out of the hospital. Your brother needed you far more than I did and I knew how attached you were to your family. And I didn't want to promise you something because I didn't know if I could keep them. So I let you go hoping I'd get another chance. When Akash told me that you were married, something inside me died. I got drunk that day and stayed drunk for days."
He pressed his hand to her cheek brushing away her tears.
"But you were god's gift to me. And no one could take it away. I should have known. The moment Akash told me about your husband, I came rushing to India. So our meeting wasn't accidental but a part of my plan."
With a cry Anjali threw herself in his arms. She was not sobbing because it hurt but because she knew that all the wounds had now healed. She felt complete. She felt whole. She knew she would never doubt his love again. How could she doubt his love? It was so pure, so deep, so true and entirely hers.
Shaurya and Anjali wasted no time in finalizing the plans for the wedding and were married a month later. Arnav and Khushi worked in harmony as they helped in the wedding preparations. They had a bantering teasing relationship where Arnav would always mock her; tease her, goading her to react.
Love hung in the air, spoken in words of concern and tenderness, shone in their eyes and yet went untold because words were lost in some unknown place. Arnav continued to love her in silence, because in silence there was no fear of saying the wrong things. Loving didn't mean you could always express your feelings. Sometimes you were too scared of mistakes, too scared of distances, too scared of losing the one you loved...
The sun shone brightly in their lives as happiness, joy filled in once again. But who could guarantee the sunshine? Sometimes dark clouds flitted suddenly and all the sunshine and all the warmth could vanish as if never existed.
Shaurya had purchased a property right next to Raizada house so that Anjali could visit her brother often. Anjali mostly stayed at the Raizada house when Shaurya had a night shift or was on call. One morning Arnav and Shaurya were reading the newspaper when JP came running towards them
"Arnav baba, Shyamji has come. The security tried to stop him but he is coming barging in and they don't know how to deal with him." JP said hurriedly referring to the fact that Shyam had once been a respected member of the house.
Arnav looked at khushi and di who had identical expressions of fear and horror on their faces. He was about to tell them to go upstairs when Shyam entered. Arnav moved protectively in front of khushi, shielding her with his body. The image of khushi which had haunted him flitted in his mind. Khushi broken staring at nothing, her eyes unfocussed and Arnav felt fear clutch its hand over his heart.
"GET OUT SHYAM, GET OUT BEFORE I KILL YOU." He shouted angrily
Shyam looked at Anjali pleadingly. Anjali felt nothing but disgust for this man who was once her husband. She cast a sideways glance at chote, who looked angry enough to kill and yet he looked scared for khushi. She was scared for khushi as well. Shaurya had gone all quiet but she knew he was angry. Where chote shouted in anger, Shauya went all quiet but the stillness was deceptive and she wondered if Shyam knew what he was getting into.
"Rani sahiba, how can you turn your back on me? How can you forget every thing we had together? Our sacred marriage vows? How can you believe this lying cheating-"
"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANOTHER WORD AGAINST MY WIFE." Arnav shouted loudly
Arnav wanted to hit Shyam for all the pain he had caused his family but right now this was about khushi. his love, his life and he prayed to god that this wouldn't affect her. He didn't have the strength to live through that again. He turned around and wrapped her in his arms, his hand at the back of her head, her face buried in his chest. His eyes were on Shyam but he was holding on to khushi, holding on to everything they had built, praying it wouldn't unravel and crumble at his feet.
Shaurya was about to move but Anjali stopped him saying, "Please, don't argue... he is not worth it."
Shaurya extracted himself from the death grip of Anjali's hand on his arm and leisurely walked in front of Shyam.
"Anjali told me not to argue so I wont-"
"This is between me and rani sahiba. Who the hell-"
Before he could complete his sentence, Shaurya punched him hard. Shyam staggered and fell. He pulled himself together holding his bloodied broken nose.
"I agree with Anjali. Arguments are pointless. And besides I wanted to do that from the time I heard that you made your way on my territory."
Shyam opened his mouth to speak and Shaurya punched him again.
"Arnav loves his wife too much to leave her and come here to punch you. So I thought I'd do the honors on his behalf." Shaurya said coldly
Shyam struggled to his feet, determined to convince Anjali.
"Rani sahiba-" he whimpered
Shaurya punched him again.
"I'm a possessive man. No one passes endearments to my wife and lives." He said his voice deceptively soft as he moved forward.
Anjali walked up to Shaurya and dragged him back as the security officers threw the almost unconscious Shyam out. She then hugged Shaurya hoping he would cool down because she knew, though Shaurya hid his emotions he was as angry as chote had been.
Arnav held khushi tightly, his arms wrapping around her completely as he buried his face in her hair. His breath was ragged and he had a lump in his throat. He felt di stroke his hair and Shaurya thump him on the back saying "its all right." But he didn't move. He needed to hold her. Needed to be held. They had lost so much already...
It was when khushi said 'I'm fine Arnav' did he move. He looked into her eyes hoping she would see love in there and wondered if she would ever know how much she meant to him. He didn't know what hurt him the most, the fact that she no longer cared or that she once did. If only he could have her love again, he knew he would catch it in his outstretched palms and clasp it to his heart and hold it there till the end of time.
Khushi was quiet throughout the trip to the beauty parlor Anjali had dragged her to. Shyam's appearance had made many things clear. It had been Shyam who was the reason for their marriage and now it was shyam who reminded her of that reason. Who reminded her of the fact that she had been living a dream. And dreams and realities hardly existed together. The truth was that Arnav had married her to protect his sister and he was still married to her out of guilt. And she could no longer hold on to that. She knew it was time. It had been a beautiful day but then even beautiful days had their sunsets. Perhaps they had always been leading towards this. A time when their journey would come to an end and they would both choose separate paths and she would walk the rest of the journey alone.
It was dark by the time they reached home. Anjali went to her own house and khushi made her way home. She was glad that the rest of the family were visiting the temples along with her parents. Because she wanted to be alone with Arnav today.
There was no electricity. Everything was pitch black. She opened the door and walked in, her steps faltering. It was so dark that she couldn't see her own hands
"A-Arnav" she said uncertainly
"Khushi I'm trying to find candles. Stand there I'll be with you in a minute." He said
Khushi knew fate was on her side today. For once she was grateful for the dark because she was scared that her resolve would waver the moment she would see his face.
"Arnav I want to tell you something." She said quietly
"What is it?" he asked
She took a deep breath and put an end to her dreams
