The wheels use a traditional aluminum rim, and bond on a non-structural carbon fairing.
TriRig got opportunity to have a first look at FLO Cycling's new FLO 60 and FLO 90 wheels, which are going into production in the next couple months. These wheels bring top-level aero technology to an entry-level price point. They're pretty sweet, if we do say so ourselves.

Drake's crew may have tangled with Chris Brown and his boys, but the Canadian rapper's camp said he never laid a hand on the crooner.
You've probably heard by now that Drake and Chris got into a bottle-tossing tussle in New York City last night at W.I.P. Well that story's not exactly accurate according to Drake's camp.
Why? The "Take Care" rappers reps claim that he was leaving the club when the fight broke out.
"Drake did not participate in any wrongdoing of any kind last night at W.I.P. He was on his way out of the club when the altercation began," a statement from his camp reads. "He did not engage in any activity which resulted in injury to person or damage to property."
Chris' camp still hasn't singled any one out when it comes to who cut up the singer's chin. His rep did acknowledge that he wasn't the only one in his crew to get banged up. Injuries ranged from that scrape Chris got to the huge gash on the head his bodyguard suffered as a result of the brawl.
"Brown, his model girlfriend Karrueche Tran and other friends 'sustained several injuries,'" Chris' rep said in a statement. "Chris and his party are cooperating with New York authorities who are pursuing this incident further."

Awaiting 'none'
J.B. Poersch, executive director of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, got a kick out of a new Associated Press presidential poll that shows "none of the above" beating out all of the declared Republican candidates.
"How dysfunctional are Republicans right now?" he wonders.
Only straw
Suddenly the 2008 race for the White House isn't premature anymore, with the Iowa Republican straw poll set for this Saturday — albeit minus a prominent pair.
Unfortunately, former New York Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani and Arizona Sen. John McCain have opted out of the straw poll, the traditional warm-up to Iowa's presidential nominating caucuses. Mr. McCain jumped ship only after Mr. Giuliani declined participation, the former's recently resigned national campaign manager, Terry Nelson, announced to the chagrin of Iowans.
"It is clear that the Ames straw poll will not be a meaningful test of the leading candidates' organizational abilities. So we have decided to forgo our participation in the event," Mr. Nelson said.
Regardless, armchair political warriors can watch the proceedings from Ames, Iowa, in their entirety on C-SPAN starting at 12:30 p.m., with the speakers, in order: former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, Rep. Tom Tancredo of Colorado, Chicago businessman John Cox, Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Rep. Duncan Hunter of California, former Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson and Sen. Sam Brownback of Kansas.
Need intelligence
While Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York and her Democratic presidential opponent Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois continue to hammer each other on how best to tangle with the axis of evil, a top Republican candidate has declared that neither Democrat exercises sound judgment.
"They are dangerously out of touch when it comes to defending the homeland," former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney says of the two Democrats, who each voted last Friday against bipartisan reform of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which passed 60-28.
Mr. Romney considers the Patriot Act "perhaps our most effective new tool," pointing out that Americans' "most basic civil liberty is the right to be kept alive."
The key to effective homeland security, he explains, "is intelligence, finding the attackers before they attack, gathering and analyzing tips, monitoring suspects, wiretapping, surveillance, all of the tools associated with intelligence work."

Survival Research Labs has a totally unique, and surprising, approach to robotics. They focus on the artistic, the dramatic, and the memorable aspects and tend to ignore traditional engineering and approaches that might stand in the way of doing what they want to accomplish. Along the way they manage to crack, fracture, and sometimes demolish common misconceptions about robots and their role in society.
From Simone at Suicidebots: "Mark Pauline, punk rock übermensch of Survival Research Labs gave a talk at the Sonoma County Museum of Art the other day, in which he related his experiences starting up SRL,trials and tribulations along the way, and how the damn kids can't even fix a toilet nowadays."

Is there life on other worlds?
kir 2012/12/28 02:20:46
More and more worlds are being found. Recently released was information regarding a super Earth within the habitable zone in the Tao Ceti star system. That's a mere 14 light years away, practically next door astronomically speaking.
So with all these worlds around, and us getting closer and closer to finding a near double of Earth, it seems reasonable that pretty soon we may be looking at a world with life on it.

- DecreeB 2012/12/28 17:20:21There are other planets with life.+2Think about it, hundreds of galaxies, millions and billions of other planets. Some have even been determined to be 98% similar to Earth. Unfortunately, we'll never be able to prove that there is life on other planets (at least in other galaxies) They're thousands of light years away, so even if we tried going there it'd take billions of years, long enough for Earth's population to die off and tons of galaxies and planets to implode.
- I suppose that's right. There's a theory that neutrinos can travel faster than the speed of light, so maybe it's possible to go faster. Plus someone's developed a camera that can shoot fast enough to capture light as it's moving, seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?...
But it would be a very long time to figure out how to make something as large as a human (and a ship) to go that fast. However, I suppose it may happen one day.
- Check this out:
The mathematics and physics for FTL drives already exist. The issue is overcoming the energy requirements or coming up with ways to reduce them.
I think the solution is not to try to go faster than light but, as with the Alcubierre Drive, to play with the fabric of space/time.
- I totally forgot about that aspect! Okay, I'm not familiar with the Alcubierre Drive, but I do know about wormholes, which was one of the things Einstein theorized. This is actually really interesting to read about, though. I hope one day we can achieve this!
- As do I. I personally believe that the ultimate destiny of the human race lies within the exploration of the universe.
- Definitely. You know, I used to believe that if aliens existed (and if they were smarter than us, which is much less likely) than we still probably won't see them because it'd be nearly impossible for them to cross such a large expanse. But after learning about this, I see that it's completely possible! I can't stop watching videos on this now! :D
- hehehe Yeah, it's fascinating stuff.
I read an article recently that theorized why we haven't seen aliens. It says that our solar systm developed MUCH later than the star systems nearer the center of the galaxy. As a result, most of the potential opportunities for advanced civilizations are near the center of the galaxy.
We, comparatively speaking, are manning a lonely outpost where not much really happens so there isn't a lot of REASON for aliens to visit out here.
- Oh, that actually makes sense! I never really thought about it that way. Some people are freaking geniuses, and I wish I was one of them! Wow, I have to do more research!
- It really is fascinating reading.
- Flowers 2012/12/28 15:59:34There are other planets with life.There are lifeforms out there that created other life forms and transported them to habitable environments.
- And you know this how?
- there is evidence within our ancestors writings, from the very beginning every civilization that was intelligent enough to create a language talked about visitors in some form or another from the sky. Our very DNA proves that we were created specifically to thrive in the environment of this planet.
- Our ancestors talked about many things in order to explain that which they did not understand. There is no evidence in our DNA that we were created. In fact we have millions upon millions of years of data that says that our genome slowly changed until it came to what it is today. Selective pressures are going to produce species that work well in an environment. You don't need aliens to do that.
- Do you have proof that we don't need aliens to do that? There is nothing to say that there wasn't artificial help with the progression of our DNA, and actually with all the holes left in the study of fossils there is no way to be sure the theories of such slow evolution even happened. Many questions can be guessed but never answered with absolute certainty because so many pieces to the puzzle didn't survive the decay process.
As far as our ancestors go, you are more than welcome to believe what ever you want but it is more than just simple explanations for things they did not understand when entire civilizations describe visitors from the sky and how they arrived there exactly the same way with no known ability to communicate with each other. Again, no KNOWN ability to communicate. If our world had a catastrophic event that destroyed all living humans today, in 2,000 years all of our communications would be gone. All the wires and electronics we use today would have long ago disappeared and IF there were intelligent lifeforms they would have to guess about our communications just as we have guessed about theirs. It is quite possible that we would in fact appear just as prehistoric as the Sumerians appear to us now.
You can not be sure of anything, we can only guess.
- Question: If aliens are needed for the evolution of advanced life, where did aliens come from?
- I never pretend to know the answer to that question. We aren't given that knowledge, for some reason. If time is a circle, one that has no beginning and no end then the creator would have at some point been created by it's creations (time travel? time/space continuum?) The possible answers to that question are limitless, and in my opinion have no right or wrong answer on this plane of existence. If you find out, please let me know. I have been asking that very thing since I was old enough to know what the stars were.
- Well isn't that a great answer. "I never pretend to know the answer. It's not given to us".
It's the exact same answer I get from those who are religious. You've just replaced the word gods with the word aliens.
You are faced with two options. Aliens are needed for advanced life to be created but somehow aliens exist anyway or aliens are not needed for advanced life to form and it has. The second is the more simple explanation and therefore the one to be picked according to Occam's Razor.
- Well I'm pretty sure aliens ARE gods so yeah I guess I did. We can't know all the answers, it doesn't mean aliens aren't needed for life to advance. It just means we don't have the knowledge to comprehend what goes on around us.
- Who wants a cupcake? 2012/12/28 15:55:35There are other planets with life.i think so
- Golden Panther 2012/12/28 15:54:44There are other planets with life.To think otherwise is naive. Earth is a third class planet in a smallish solar system and of little, if any, significance in the total universe...now why would we be the only one with human or animal life?
- Kozmo, Kostable of the Kust... 2012/12/28 14:54:09There are other planets with life.And they're not stopping by for good reason (we don't have any).
- Fran-Halen 2012/12/28 14:18:49
- MadMax 2012/12/28 14:04:30UndecidedI hope so. It would make the future much more interesting.

- Kozmo, ... martin28 2012/12/28 14:55:56If, in this vast universe, we're the only ones here, doesn't say much for god.
What about that 'other flocks' remark by Jesus?
- martin28 Kozmo, ... 2013/01/07 04:42:53
- Radlad 2012/12/28 12:51:24Undecided+1Unknown! If we go with what evidence and facts that we have at the moment. Painstakingly review and with logical scientifical analysis of those facts we have and know for certain. We would have to conclude that we're it. That there is no other life out there in the universe........
Having said that...... Considering the number of galaxies there are and the number of stars in all those galaxies. To believe that we're it. That earth is the only planet that has given birth to life. Strikes me that that is a very unlikely scenario. The odds are good that there are a lot more worlds that have life on 'em. The question is: What type of life?

American Federation of Government Employees, Local 1156 and Laborers' International Union, Local 1170 (Unions) and United States Department of the Navy, Naval Inventory Control Point and Defense Logistics Agency, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (Agencies)
[ v56 p1024 ]
56 FLRA No. 179
December 27, 2000
Before the Authority: Donald S. Wasserman, Chairman; Dale Cabaniss and Carol Waller Pope, Members.
Decision by Member Pope for the Authority.
I. Statement of the Case
This matter is before the Authority on exceptions to an award of Arbitrator Irwin Kaplan filed by the Unions under § 7122(a) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute (the Statute) and part 2425 of the Authority's Regulations. The Agencies filed an opposition to the Unions' exceptions.
The Arbitrator denied in part and sustained in part a grievance alleging that employees were entitled to environmental differential pay (EDP) for exposure to asbestos. For the following reasons, we dismiss without prejudice the Unions' exception regarding attorney fees, and deny the Unions' remaining exceptions.
II. Background and Arbitrator's Award
The Unions filed a grievance seeking EDP for all members of the bargaining unit. The grievance was unresolved and submitted to arbitration. As relevant here, the Arbitrator framed the issue as:
Whether WG Bargaining Unit Employees employed by the Agency at the Mechanicsburg facility are entitled to EDP because they have worked and continue to work "in an area where airborne concentrations of asbestos fibers may expose [such] employees to potential illness or injury and protected devices or safety measures have not practically eliminated the potential for such illness or injury" as contended by the Unions.
Award at 6 (alteration in original) (quoting 5 C.F.R. pt. 532 app. A, Part II, Category 16).
The Arbitrator sustained the grievance as to four employees and denied it as to the remaining members of the bargaining unit. The Arbitrator found that the parties were not bound by statute, regulation, or contract to a particular threshold level of asbestos exposure entitling employees to EDP under 5 C.F.R. § 532.511. [n1] See id. at 66-68. Having made this finding, the Arbitrator concluded that he had discretion to determine the appropriate threshold level for EDP. See id. at 68-69.
The Arbitrator discussed various quantitative standards for EDP entitlement, including the OSHA permissive exposure level (PEL), and determined that the level of exposure entitling employees to EDP should be less than the OSHA PEL of .1 fibers/cc, but greater than .015 fibers/cc -- the mean exposure level at the Agencies. See id. at 66-73. Applying this standard, he awarded the four employees "a full remedy under the Back Pay Act," and "retain[ed] jurisdiction for the purposes of resolving any differences between the Unions and the Agency having to do with the money payments to said employees and for such other relief as provided under the Back Pay Act." Id. at 80-81. The Arbitrator also found that, with the exception of those four employees: (1) the Unions failed to meet their burden of demonstrating that unit employees had encountered airborne asbestos at the necessary quantitative level; and (2) the Agencies have practically eliminated the potential for injury and illness within the meaning of Appendix A, Category 16. See id. at 73-77. [ v56 p1025 ]
III. Positions of the Parties
A. Unions' Exceptions
The Unions contend that the award is based on a nonfact because the Arbitrator's factual findings are erroneous. The Unions also assert that the award is contrary to 5 C.F.R. § 532.511 because evidence regarding the asbestos levels and increased rate of cancer at the Agencies clearly demonstrates that the Agencies have not practically eliminated the potential for asbestos related illness and injury. Finally, the Unions assert that the award is contrary to 5 U.S.C. § 5596(b)(1)(A)(ii), 5 U.S.C. § 7701(g)(1), and 5 C.F.R. § 550.807, because the Arbitrator failed to address or resolve the Unions' application for attorney fees in the award.
B. Agencies' Opposition
The Agencies assert that the Unions' nonfact exception does not provide a basis for finding the award deficient because the parties disputed each of the three matters below. With regard to the Unions' claim that the award is contrary to 5 C.F.R. § 532.511, the Agencies assert that the evidence supports a finding that the Agencies have practically eliminated the potential for asbestos related illness and injury. Finally, with regard to the issue of attorney fees, the Agencies assert that the Unions' exception is premature because the Arbitrator has not yet made a determination on the merits of the Unions' fee request. [n2]
IV. Analysis and Conclusions
A. The Award Is Not Based on a Nonfact
To establish that an award is based on a nonfact, the appealing party must show that a central fact underlying the award is clearly erroneous, but for which the arbitrator would have reached a different result. See United States Dep't of the Air Force, Lowry Air Force Base, Denver, Colo., 48 FLRA 589, 593-94 (1993). The Authority will not find an award deficient on the basis of an arbitrator's determination on any factual matter that was disputed at arbitratio

November 5, 2012 A web of embargoes meant the full story on a 2009 mumps outbreak couldn't be revealed until now. Now we can tell you about the effect of an extra dose of vaccine worked and whether doctors recommend that others get a third mumps shot.
Two boys study together at a Chicago yeshiva in 2009. Public health officials say this type of close physical contact caused a mumps outbreak to spread throughout several orthodox Jewish communities in and around New York City.

It's universal that at some point, somebody's manhood - and indeed, his own ability and desire to procreate with women - is going to be questioned. Repeatedly. And God help any athlete who isn't white, because that's going to come up once or twice too.
But for as much flak as Philadelphia fans have earned for their poor behavior, isn't it time we started admitting that Chicago fans are rapidly becoming some of the most obnoxiously childish in sports? Why, just over the last couple years, we've had casual racism, more casual racism, and now this delightful sign (above) directed at Sports Voldemort and Packers fans in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
WITI-TV in Milwaukee has the story on the Bears fans TOTALLY OWNING THE PACKERS YO, and while there's little there worth blockquoting or anything - you already know how it goes, it's controversial to everybody but the owner - we're still dealing with the larger issue of … well, what the hell, guys?
As we mentioned before, this sort of stuff gets said at damned near every football game. It's not like this line's never been crossed or never will be again.
But doing it in public like this betrays your one goal, which is to bring shame to the opposing team. In reality, when you're so hard up for a point to be made and you just go for the easy gay joke, you've lost, because you were too dumb to think of anything clever.
Plus, come on: "Fudge Packers". How hard was that? Granted, it's still more juvenile than funny, but "Packer f*gs" is the stuff of message boards, middle schools, and mental wards. Pick better company than that.
Obviously, this doesn't mean everybody in Chicago's a racist or homophobic or anything like that. But at some point, don't the "good" fans bear some responsibility to stand up and say, "You know what? That doesn't fly around here"? There are so many easy ways to make fun of the Packers. You can just dust off some antique like "Packers are like possums, because they play dead and get killed on the road." That right there automatically whips the hell out of "Packer f*gs," because it's far better to be unoriginal than to be a mouth-breathing slurmongerer.

Related question: Calculating truck cargo capacity in a game
In my related question I have 3 different types of trucks, but I've decided to make it more simplified and just have a simple number that holds how many trucks each player has.
I need to find out how many trucks I need for a given cargo.
Each truck can carries 50 crates (
Player 1 has 0 trucks (
The cargo I want to move is 10 crates (
I've tried the following;
sum = truckCapacity / cargo
= 5
This is wrong, if I am moving 10 crates, it should be 1. As I only need 1 truck to move 10 crates
I've tried
sum = truckCapacity - cargo
= 40
This doesn't tell me how many trucks I need though.
I tried, as per the accepted answer in my related question,
current_capacity(truck) = total_capacity(truck) - loaded_crates(truck)
But this only loads one truck at a time, and doesn't tell me how many extra trucks I need to purchase.
What I'm after is;
I feed in the cargo and it returns with how much trucks it needs to move the said cargo.
It should also work if I have lots of cargo to move. So, if I want to move 500 crates, it should tell me that 10 trucks are needed (50 crates per truck * 10 trucks = 500 crates moved)
Things like how much space is left over in a truck is not important.

Taylor Lautner has revealed his acting career made him a ''bit of an outcast'' when he was at school.
Taylor Lautner was a "bit of an outcast" at school.
The 'Twilight Saga' hunk - who played for his high school football team - admits his budding acting career meant he often missed classes and time with his friends which meant his teen years were more challenging for him than for other students.
He said: "I had a lot of fun in high school, but was I viewed as maybe a bit of an outcast? Sure.
"I was busy and would sometimes have to leave school and shoot a movie and then come back, or I'd miss a week because I'd be doing a television show. That definitely made it more challenging."
Although Taylor was a 'jock' - a term for someone who plays sports at American schools - the actor had many different friends and he didn't limit his social activities.
He told Top Of The Pops magazine: "I wasn't the super-popular, hangs-out-with-the-same-crowd, kind of guy. I had friends on the football team, friends on the band team, friends on the drama club, and I liked that."
The actor can be seen reprising his role as werewolf Jacob Black in 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1' which is in cinemas from November 18.

Shikiga's Hidden Power
As night fell on the group on the outskirts of the Wolf Demon territory, Kagome, Miroku, Shippo, Kaname, and Michiru had pitched their tents and had settled in for the night with InuYasha standing guard.
As Michiru slept, his hand was clenched tightly to Sango's Hiraikotsu. Kirara slept above his head purring profusely as she inhaled and exhaled softly.
Suddenly and gust of wind got into an area of Michiru's tent he somehow forgot to zip up letting in a cool draft that hit Michiru with a brief and sudden chill. Even though it wasn't enough to wake him, it was enough for him to shift his hand until it no longer was wrapped around the massive boomerang bone, but had drifted to the side where his trust sword Shikiga was kept. In about a minute, his had has touched the Shikiga ever so lightly.
When it did, it began to glow with a faint unworldly glow. A glow that soon began to creep its way up Michiru's arm until it reached his head where Michiru was lost in a dream world.
As Michiru dreamed, he dreamed of the future of Sango and himself raising healthy happy babies, when all of a sudden his sweet dream turned black as he saw an image of Sesshomaru battling with InuYasha.
"Eat this Sesshomaru! WIND SCAR!" InuYasha roared as he brought his sword to the ground sending the wave of destructive power to Sesshomaru who immediately countered with the Tenseiga's teleport ability as he drew forth his Tokijin.
"Huh?" Michiru asked at the sight of this confused. "The Tokijin? But I destroyed that thing! What's it doing here?"
Watching the battle unfold, he watched as Sesshomaru called forth the Dragon Strike technique as InuYasha countered with the Backlash Wave to try and send the attack back at Sesshomaru.
"That is enough!" Michiru thought to himself drawing forth his Shikiga entering the middle of the fight as his sword glowed with the essence of Light as he was about to call forth his Shikiga's ultimate technique. "DRAGON BLADE OF JUDGEMENT!!!"
As all ten symbols on the sword's blade glowed with intense power, Michiru flew in and intercepted both combatants just as they were about to clash as the Shikiga made contact with Tokijin causing it to crack and eventually shatter to pieces as it had the last time Michiru and Sesshomaru clashed.
But all of a sudden, the Shikiga began to glow with the same color of light that appeared when Shikiga and Tenseiga clashed. The same light that shone when Shikiga copied the healing power of Tenseiga.
Turning to the side where InuYasha was, Michriu let out a gasp as the Tetsusaiga was also glowing with this power as well. Both Michiru and InuYasha looked into each other's eyes with the realization that Shikiga was copying Tetsusaiga's power just as it had Tenseiga's.
"Wait!" Michriu thought to himself. "This power! I...I don't want it! It is InuYasha's and his alone!"
Then all of a sudden everything disappeared. InuYasha's appearance vanished, as did Sesshomaru's and the swords. Looking around, Michiru couldn't see much. He was in an area that had no floor or ground even though he felt like he was standing. It was all black and red void.
Wondering what all was going on, Michiru asked himself, "What is this place? Where are InuYasha and Sesshomaru? Where am I?"
Just then a light shone getting Michiru's attention. It looked like a human shape that was getting fainter and fainter taking on the image of a man. Eventually the light resided to reveal to Michiru a man. A man who actually looked a lot like Sesshomaru.
"But..." Michiru thought to himself, "This man has no white fluffy scarf, he's dressed in spiked armor, he has no crescent on his forehead, and his hair is done in a ponytail. Who is this guy?"
Suddenly, Michiru's eyes darted to the figure's sash. He noticed the hilts of three swords he recognized. The hilts of Tetsusaiga, Tenseiga, and the dreaded Sounga. Letting out a gasp of realization, Michiru knew that only one being in history ever carried all three swords simultaneously.
"Y-You..." Michiru studdered. "A-A-Are you....are you...?" But he couldn't continue. He was at a loss for words if this being was who he thought he was.
Turning to look Michiru in the eyes, the figure nodded and spoke, "Yes Michiru Kururugi. I am the great InuTaisho."
Letting out another surprised gasp at this, Michiru replied nervously, "But...how can that be? You...you've been dead for centuries!"
Nodding at this, InuTaisho replied. "My body is dead, but my soul is not entirely dead..."
Then InuTaisho clicked his fingers causing the image of Shikiga to magically appear in his hand which he tossed to its rightful owner.
"My Shikiga?" Michiru asked knowing that part of InuTaisho's soul was in the sword. "But, I've had this sword for nearly three years. You've never communicated with me before."
"Yes that's true. But to be fair Michiru," InuTaisho began. "You've never slept with Shikiga in your hands."
Looking in confusion for a second, Michiru though of the times he went to bed after inheriting Shikiga and realized InuTaisho was right. He never slept with his weapon in hand, he always slept with Sango in his arms.
"So you're saying that if I go to bed with Shikiga in my arms, your soul fragment can communicate with me through my dreams?" Michiru asked.
"Yes. You catch on fast Michiru." InuTaisho replied. "That's part of the reason you were able to defeat my son Sesshomaru the last time you fought."
"I didn't defeat him." Michiru humbly replied. "It ended in a draw."
"You shattered that wretched Tokijin, the sword Sesshomaru used to use all the time." InuTaisho countered. "You defeated his primary weapon and thus in my view won the fight."
Michiru was at a loss for words. InuTaisho thought he was the winner in that fight? He couldn't believe it.
"But I am not here to talk socially." InuTaisho spoke up breaking up Michiru's train of thought. "I am here to tell you that you need to do something."
"What is that?" Michiru asked.
"I need you to use Shikiga to copy the power of Tetsusaiga." InuTaisho explained.
"What?" Michiru gasped. "But...why? The power of Tetsusaiga is InuYasha's. I don't want to steal it."
"I don't think you understand." InuTaisho replied. "You see in that dream I had when I gave Totosai that vial of blood, I neglected to tell him a strange part of my dream."
"A strange part?" Michiru asked. "What part is that?"
"Well you see, Michiru." InuTaisho explained. "When that human figure of light opposed he darkness, it for some strange reason had three hands on one wrist. One was holding a sword I did not recognize, until Totosia completed the Shikiga which my soul recognized as the image of the sword in my dream. In his other two hands, he was holding both Tenseiga and Tetsusaiga."
"What?" Michiru gasped. "Why didn't you tell Totosai that detail?"
"Because I figured it meant that this force was allied with both my sons and they were defeating this force together. But then when Shikiga and Tenseiga clashed, and my soul fragment could sense that Shikiga had the power to copy Tenseiga's power and give it to Shikiga, that was when I realized what the detail of that dream was. That the image with three hands was holding all three swords because he had the power of all three swords."
Studying InuTaisho's words for a minute, Michiru suddenly gave a noise of comprehension as he realized what InuTaisho was saying.
"The force...me...was holding all three swords because....because my weapon in the dream had the power of all three blades." Michiru realized. "That's why you need me to copy Tetsusaiga's power. So that I'll have the power of all three swords when I face this evil."
"That's right." InuTaisho nodded placing a hand on Michiru's shoulder. "I know you Michiru Kururugi. When you were handed to me and the bond was forged between us, I read your every thought, memory, and detail of your life. I know that you love my son InuYasha with the same love you share for your own sister. I know that my eldest son Sesshomaru respects you above all other beings on Earth outside his group. You are a great man and a great warrior Michiru Kururugi. Fate chose well to send you from your home to here. Just as she chose well to be the one who inherited my forth heirloom blade."
"Th-Th-Thank you...sir." Michiru stuttered in disbelief at receiving such respect from perhaps the greatest warrior who ever lived. "That...means a lot to me!"
"And I want you to know soemthing Michiru." InuTaisho began. "This isn't east for me to say, but you helped both my sons settle their differences and learn to respect each other. Now they might not love each other, but they do respect each other now, and that is because of you." All of a sudden, Michiru saw InuTaisho's image fading away as he continued to speak. "So what I'm trying to say to you is that based on all I have witnessed from you mind and all you've done to help my sons learn to respect each other I...I see you as a third son Michiru Kururugi. I...love you. Like a son...."
"Hey, hey bro." A voice broke in. "Hey Michiru, get up. It's morning now, and we've got work to do."
All of a sudden, Michiru woke up to the sound of his sister Kaname. It was now daylight in the morning, and it was time to get up to continue their climb to Koga's Territory just as Kaname said.
Getting out of his bedroll, stretching, and yawning. Michiru turned to the side to see that his Shikiga was indeed touching the mere tip of his finger. Remembering the dream, and all InuTaisho told him in it, he picked it up and nodded.
"Alright, InuTaisho!" He spoke to himself with conviction. "I will! If it will save the world, then I will copy the power of the Tetsusaiga! And together, we will destroy the great force of evil you foresaw so long ago...
Michiru and Sango's Children Ch. 22 by J4RRE77Watch
Well! THAT was surely interesting! The Shikiga has the ability to let Michiru communicate with InuTaisho himself? Totally cool! But how will Michiru obtain the power of Tetsusaiga in addition to the power of Tenseiga? And what was that great evil force from InuTaisho's dream? And what's going to happen when the group reaches Koga's lair? Tune in next time!
I also Enjoyed this chapter, though t didn't really get far. Butm glad you went to the length of explaining what the majoy role of the story is. Could the massive evil Inutaisho be referring to is Naraku? Or Maybe it's Something Else.
Anyways, You did a very good job on this and I can't wait to see more.
Elekid. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru aren't twins. Sesshomaru is much older.

I know they aren't excally twins I just didn't know what else to describe them
So glad you like it.
this was awesome dude! I so cant wait for the next chapter and see more Shikga. When you reach the part where Shikga gains the copy of the tetsieg's power could I make a card of it. This was a great chapter I loved seeing inutasho he was awesome myfreind and one of my favroture chracters Michiru would make a great son of his if they had been blood related
Thanks. So glad you like it.
I love it. this is one of the things that makes you coll you know what the fans like. Inutashio is one of the best chracters he's wise and loves his kids. In a way he and Michiru are the same both have twins and make sure they are save rom evil and themselves. Im glad they met

Building a Mosaic Table
See if We Have Top-Rated
Tiling Contractors in Your Area
Mosaic tables are a labor of love. Constructing one is a time-consuming business, but an artistic and fun one, as well. Here's the basics for building a mosaic table, as well as some other uses of mosaic tile that you may not have already though of.Mosaic Tile Basics
Before you start building a mosaic table, it's important to realize how many options there are out there to choose from when it comes to mosaic tile. Your choices include ceramic tiles, glass tiles, metal tiles, porcelain tiles, cork tiles, and even mixed material tiles. What does that mean for mosaic tables? Simply that the sky is limit when you're designing one of these fun and innovative table top additions. Building a Mosaic Table: Design
Once you've chosen a tile that suits your fancy, the next thing you need to consider is your overall design. The fun of building with mosaic tile is that your design options are endless. Alternating stainless steel and copper tiles creates a modern, clean look, while working with porcelain and ceramic tile creates a traditional, pastoral look to your table. If you have the means to invest in custom made mosaic tiles, you can even create intricate pictures and designs to grace your table top. Why Go Mosaic?
It depends on the material you settle on, to some extent, but most mosaic tiles make for durable, sturdy table tops. Because the majority are composed of glass, metal, or ceramic, you don't have to worry about scratching or staining, and you can place hot pots, pans, and baking dishes on the surface without worrying about causing any burns or damage. Building Mosaic Tables 101
When building mosaic tables, your primary concern is going to be support. You are going to need a lot of it. Use a six leg frame design, with a particle board surface on top of the legs. Place your legs six inches in from the sides, with cross members at least 16 inches apart. The structure underneath the table should resemble a ladder with legs on it. 1 x 6" hardwood would work fine for the frame. And you can purchase ready-made legs from a lumber company if you want a more refined, spindled look. Remember, though, that support is king here. Particleboard alone will warp in a day under the weight of the tiles if not supported correctly.
Tired of that same old floor? Use this link toInstall New Flooring
Once your table is built to specs, it's time to lay the tile. There are several ways to do this. If you want a totally custom design, you'll apply a layer of thinset adhesive, and then set your tiles individually into the thinset before grouting. You can also purchase pre-manufactured groupings of tile, attached to paper strips or fiberglass mesh, that make installation a lot easier and faster. The paper or mesh holds the tiles together in pre-set squares, so all you'll need to do is set each section into the thinset and then pull off the adhesive paper to get your tile in place. You won't get the custom design, or originality, of doing it tile by tile, but it might be the difference between finishing your table in a day as opposed to a few weeks or months.Mosaic Tiles Are Great for Other Areas as Well
If you're set on building mosaic tables, nobody's going to stop you. But don't forget the wide range of uses mosaic tiles provide in other applications as well. Backsplashes, countertops, wall murals, and pool murals are just a few of the areas where mosaic tiles can turn heads. Talk to a supplier of mosaic tiles about your full range of options when it comes to choosing the right materials and design for your particular project.

The Harlem rapper won't be eligible for release until 2042.
It looks like former Dip Set associate Max B has caught a tough break — the Harlem rapper's appeal to get out of prison after being incarcerated for a botched robbery-turned-homicide has been denied. Now he's facing 30 more years behind bars.
B, neé Charly Wingate, was first arrested in 2007 after being accused of ordering his ex-girlfriend and stepbrother to rob a man. The victim ended up executed with a gunshot wound to the head. In 2009, Max B was found guilty of 9 of 11 charges, including murder, robbery and kidnapping. He first filed for appeal last year.
The melodic rapper, a former member of Jim Jones' ByrdGang crew, was a close friend and collaborator of Bronx rhyme-slinger French Montana. In 2009, B and Montana released the collaborative mixtape Coke Wave. Though B's legal troubles put the breaks on his career, Montana's star continued to rise. Last year, he signed to Bad Boy Records after a much-publicized bidding war, and he was recently named to XXL magazine's exclusive Freshman Class of 2012.

With the perfect amount of charm and glam, this DIY wedding crafted up by the stunning Bride below is one for the books. Why you ask? Well, because not only did she dream up all the swoon-worthy details sitting in this gallery captured by Jenny Haas Photograph, but those amazing take-your-breath-away florals? She whipped those up too. I know, it's too much – but there is even more waiting for you here.
From Jenny Haas Photography…My name is Jenny Haas and I am a Dayton Ohio wedding photographer. I recently shot a beautiful wedding at the Dayton Art Museum with a lot of glitz and glamour so I wanted to share! Heather and Loftur met in college in the states, but since Loftur is from Iceland they lived there for a while. A lot of the guest were from there and it was fun to see two different cultures and traditions come together in one place, and to celebrate one couple :)
Some of my favorite details of the day were the florals, Heather designed them herself [crazy and ambitious!] she did an amazing job! I loved the pops of color and they accented the bridesmaids dresses perfectly. I also thought it was unique that some of the girls wore black gowns and some of them work mismatched pastel gowns. Heather's gown was simple and elegant.
The tables at the reception were covered with gold table clothes and decorated with blacks and golds. Heather and Loftur made CDS for favors with their favorite songs, and Heather arranged all of the flowers. The Art Institute was the perfect backdrop for all of the details!

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A proposal that would allow school board members to participate in meetings remotely is headed to the governor for his consideration.
The measure was sent to Gov. Bill Haslam on Thursday after the Senate agreed to minor changes made by the House.
The legislation would allow school board members to participate in a meeting electronically up to twice a year if they were out of the country for work, on military service or attending to a family emergency.
Sponsors say the bill is necessary because some school boards already allow remote attendance and proxy voting without any state guidelines in place.
Opponents of the measure say they worry that other elected bodies like county commissions, the city councils and even the Legislature could one day try to follow suit.

Video editing with Jahshaka
One of the first things you notice about the free video-editing software Jahshaka is its unconventional controls. But once you master the learning curve, Jahshaka turns out to be a useful tool with professional features.
The former computer vendor Jah Shaka (not to be confused with the musician of the same name) was looking for a free – but powerful – video-editing program, particularly for third-world countries, where people cannot afford to invest several thousand dollars in real-time video-editing systems. At the time, Jah Shaka was working for a UNESCO project in Jamaica, which had similar goals but finally failed, thus prompting his decision to take up the reins. Shaka considered various high-end video-editing systems as role models before finally developing the free video-editing and effects program with professional features. He gave his own name to the results – Jahshaka.

Losing My Religion by AeirmidWatch
©2014-2016 Aeirmid
So, I wanted to create something old-school style, mouse only. (This was largely driven by the fact that I am away from home and don't have a tablet with me.) Some of my older watchers will (I hope) recognize my old style. Constructive critique is welcome; I'm lukewarm on this one and only spent maybe 4-5 hours on it (not counting searching for stock).
EDIT: Fixed texture and lighting on hand/arm.
All stock is purchased.

OH WOW lady you are seriously talented, mind blown!!

Her username was "Selfish Eden".. and yes, I've been away that long.. lol.. This is gorgeous.. I love this style, I used to really love her works.. and now, I suppose I need to take a thorough view of your Gallery as soon as I possibly can.. This is beautiful!
Old school style with the mouse is often my style.. I still find it difficult to use the pen and tablet.. My reason for wanting a cintiq.. where I can actually draw on the tablet, and see what it is I am doing.. "on the tablet"

Vanilla addict here. I can't believe it took me this long to find such a wonderful body spray. I bought this for $6.99 at Walgreens. The packaging is super blah, luckily what's inside is the complete opposite. If you just remove the cap and sniff it smells awful. In fact, even when I sprayed it on myself at first it smelled like sweet chewing tobacco, ick! Luckily, I gave it about 10 minutes and it smelled like sweet pure vanilla extract. It's not overly sweet though, it doesn't smell cheap. It lasts about 3-5 hours on me. My husband gave me a hug and said "When did you become a walking talking human vanilla candle?" Awesome! I love this stuff. :D

My 9 soon to be 10 year old wanted a body spray she can use at school. This was hands down the winner. In the bottle it's an alcohol stench but spritzed on skin, hair, clothing, it smells exactly like pure vanilla extract. Slightly sweet, very inviting and, most importantly non-cloying and inoffensive. I haven't seen PdC products in Canada for a few years, unfortunately. I will stock up when I go cross-border shopping.

This is my curent number one fragrance right now! It smells subtle enough to be worn everyday but just sweet enough to get everyone to notice it. It lasts almost all day and I don't need to continuously spray huge amounts of it to get the smell across. Awesome product!

Bought this after reading all of the glowing reviews for this great, super inexpensive body spray. Picked it up on sale at Walgreens for $4.99 for the 8 oz. spray bottle. Lasts nicely, especially for a body spray AND the fact that my skin devours fragrances. It is sweet, but not too too sweet. If it was just a tad less sweet, I would have given it 5 stars. Will definitely repurchase. Went back the next day and bought a bottle to surprise my roommate with. Being unemployed right now, it was such a treat to find a pleasing product that boosts my mood and my confidence -- and at such an affordable price. Thank you to all of my wonderful fellow MUA-ers for the recommendation.

This is the scent of vanilla extract and vanilla cake and when it dries down it reminds me of chocolate pudding. It layers wonderfully with so many things and is also nice to wear on its own. I have to be in the mood for something foodie when I wear this. The price is very nice and this can be found in most drugstores. I would repurchase since I'd like to always have this in my collection. There are other fun Body Fantasies scents too. Hopefully this one sticks around for a long time.

I am a lover of all things vanilla...well almost. However, I am becoming pickier with my taste. This to my nose is almost identical to VS vanilla lace (with a better price tag). Its vanilla - like deep, warm, creamy, vanilla extract kind of vanilla. The bf is a big fan also...bonus : )

This is one of the few colognes that I can wear. Most of them go very off smelling on my body. I just love this one and have been trying to find out where I can buy it now. You give me hope that I can find it again!!

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this yet! I've been wearing this for as long as I can remember, at least since I was 12-13 (about 10 years). I've repurchased it many times, because it is one of the most satisfying vanillas I've found. Vanilla Fantasy is not like BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar...which places more emphasis on the brown sugar than the vanilla. It is similar to VS Vanilla Lace...it's definitely vanilla, but with depth - not too much complexity, it's just right. Vanilla Fantasy is sweet and warm...things like caramellized sugar crystals, vanilla extract, the creme inside a pastry come to mind. It also has touches of amber and musk, which gives it a feminine and sexy feel. You won't feel like a walking cupcake, but you'll feel delicious and comfortable wearing it. Most vanilla fragrances are inviting and appealing to others, and I tend to get the most compliments on Vanilla Fantasy. I wore it today and got a "you smell awesome" comment! This spray lasts a pretty good amount of time, and it layers well with most perfumes. This wonderful stuff comes in a $6 bottle available at any drugstore. Also, Parfums de Coeur recently redesigned their packaging, and instead of the fairy-capped bottles, they now come in sleek, simplistic bottles. Now young girls and grown women alike can buy this without feeling weird with childish packaging.

By itself it's..blah. But layer it w/ Bodycology Coconut Lime...it's yummy!
Age: 25-29

I discovered the Body Fantasies line back in my early teens and I tend to have a scent of theirs in my collection in some shape or form. Right now I'm wearing the Vanilla Fantasy and for $6 a bottle it's a steal! In my opinion, it's sweet but not overpowering. I'm currently using Fancy by Jessica Simpson as my fall/winter scent and this compliments nicely! It has amazing staying power. I can spray this in the morning and there will be a slight remainder when I get home in the evening. I always keep a smaller bottle in my purse. Without a doubt, this is a staple for me :-)

Last week, 41 veteran chaplains sent a letter to President Obama enumerating the many and serious religious liberty concerns with the administration's plans to normalize homosexual behavior in the armed forces. Almost immediately, a chorus of critics responded, branding the carefully crafted letter of the chaplains—who have a long and distinguished record of service in the all branches of the armed forces—as "insulting" and "illogical."
Perhaps such criticisms were made before the critics had taken the time to read the prayerfully considered and carefully researched letter that the chaplains released. Or the three accompanying personal letters written by a few of the signatories briefly outlining what it said. More charitably, perhaps the critics simply don't understand the chaplains' letter. Either way, it's important to ensure no one is misled by the criticisms.
For starters, the letter is not an attempt to protect squeamish Christians from having to deal with people who disagree with them on sexual morality. That should have been clear just by reading the biographies of the signatories included at the end of theletter. These are men who have defended American liberties in almost every major modern conflict, from Vietnam to Afghanistan. They've faced snipers' bullets and terrorist IEDs, so they're not afraid of ministering to people with whom they disagree. The chaplains said as much in their letter:
"To clarify, we are not saying that active-duty chaplains who share our beliefs would be unwilling to minister to those who engage in homosexual behavior. To the contrary, we believe that God loves everyone, that He desires that everyone should hear of and receive the Truth, and that He calls us to speak that Truth."

girl: "Damn I had a rough day. I need a good dickens"
by MoSpeed July 10, 2004
Top Definition
Similar but differing slightly to the term 'twat', a Dickens is a pompous and awkward bastard who will go out of his way to needlessly berate his fellow man. Owing to the Dickens' overinflated sense of self importance the term is almost exclusively applied to ex public school boys. Often a Dickens will have been subjected to repeated bummings as a choir boy resulting in frequent pegging throughout his adult life.
Person A: That bloke just called me a pleb!
Person B: Don't worry about it, the guy is a total Dickens.

Really nice! Your voice is nice to listen to as well! I am getting married next summer at a lake, & these would be perfect to hang in the trees etc. as well as along the ground. That was the most clever part of this vid, the ground hook!
Jun 07, 2011
Linda, I love this! It certainly looks like it cost so much more. My question to you is: where did you get the little charms that go on the front and also the wire you used for hanging the lantern? Great idea! So beautiful!

Take the Creepy Out of Recruiting
By "Jim Lein, Oracle Midsize-Oracle" on Jun 12, 2015
I admit it. Sometimes I creep. Anyone who prides themselves on being a top notch web researcher will from time to time. For instance, my son just received his roommate assignment for his freshman year at college and I knew everything the web could tell me about that kid within half an hour.
In fairness, most LinkedIn users are probably more flattered than insulted by recruiters looking at their profiles. But if your recruiting strategy relies too heavily on trolling LinkedIn, you're not on the path to adopting Modern Best Practice for Recruiting.
This guide, Social Networking With a Purpose: Acquire More Talent by Combining Referrals with Social Media, identifies that your existing employees likely hold the key to hiring the best talent.
2014 research by Recruiting Trends:
- 73.6% of recruiters say that employee referrals yield the highest quality candidates
- 54% identify employee referrals as one of their top candidate sources
- A referred candidate is three to four times more likely to be hired.
Voluntary employee referrals are just the tip of the iceberg, as the guide states, because, "neither employees nor alumni can refer friends and colleagues to job openings they don't know about." Voluntary referrals miss out on the full potential of the reality that 45% of LinkedIn users have 500+ connections.
Read the guide to learn how to build a proactive referral strategy that makes it easy to tap into the full potential of your employees' and alumni's social networks.

The University of Dayton announced the news today in a press release.
"Percy and LaDontae committed to the University of Dayton after a long recruiting process, and after the coaching change they and their families feel it is in their best interest to start fresh," new UD coach Archie Miller said in the release. "I understand that, and I respect their wishes in this matter.
"The conversations I have had with them have been positive toward myself, our program and the University of Dayton, and I look forward to them getting to know me better in the recruiting process so that they remain Flyers."
Percy averaged 22 points and 11.5 rebounds this season, while Henton tallied 25.6 points, 14.5 rebounds and 5.2 assists in finishing second for Michigan's Mr. Basketball.
At this point, Dayton doesn't have anyone signed for the fall with four scholarships to fill.
