September 2, 1999
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has recently obtained information suggesting that OSHA's current 2 micrograms per cubic meter of air (micrograms/m3) eight-hour time-weighted average (TWA) permissible exposure limit (PEL) for beryllium in the workplace may not be adequate to prevent the occurrence of chronic beryllium disease (CBD), a disabling and often fatal lung disease, among exposed workers.
OSHA is publishing this Hazard Information Bulletin to alert employees working with beryllium about the hazards associated with their work. It describes engineering controls, work practices, and personal protective equipment recommended for controlling exposures to beryllium through inhalation and skin contact. It also suggests health surveillance methods to identify workers who may have become sensitized to beryllium, or who may have CBD.
Beryllium is a metal that is found in nature, especially in beryl and bertrandite rock. It is extremely lightweight and hard, is a good conductor of electricity and heat, and is non-magnetic. These properties make beryllium suitable for many industrial uses, including: metal working (pure beryllium, copper and aluminum alloys, jet brake pads, aerospace components); ceramic manufacturing (semi-conductor chips, ignition modules, crucibles, jet engine blades, rocket covers); electronic applications (transistors, heat sinks, x-ray windows); atomic energy applications (heat shields, nuclear reactors, nuclear weapons); laboratory work (research and development, metallurgy, chemistry); extraction (ore and scrap metal); and dental alloys (crowns, bridges, dental plates); and sporting goods (golf clubs, bicycle frames).
Current Exposure Limits
The current OSHA PELs for beryllium are 2 micrograms/m3 as an 8-hour TWA, 5 micrograms/m3as a ceiling not to be exceeded for more than 30 minutes at a time, and 25 micrograms/m3as a peak exposure never to be exceeded. The OSHA limits have been in place for nearly 30 years and have not been revised in that time. The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) current Threshold Limit Value (TLV)* for beryllium is 0.05 micrograms/m3 averaged over an 8-hour work shift [updated 02/23/2010].
Potential Adverse Health Effects From Beryllium Exposure
Chronic Beryllium Disease
Chronic beryllium disease (CBD) primarily affects the lungs. CBD may occur among people who are exposed to the dust or fumes from beryllium metal, metal oxides, alloys, ceramics or salts. It occurs when people inhale beryllium in these forms. CBD usually has a very slow onset, and even very small amounts of exposure to beryllium can cause the disease in some people. In some cases, CBD develops while workers are still on the job, but in others it may not develop until many years after a person has stopped working in the beryllium industry, or has been transferred to a job that does not involve beryllium exposure. The amount or length of exposure to beryllium necessary to cause a specific individual to develop CBD is not known, but recent information suggests that exposure below OSHA's 2 micrograms/m3 TWA PEL over a very short time (weeks or months) can lead to CBD in some workers.
Signs and Symptoms of Chronic Beryllium Disease
Workers with advanced CBD may have one or more of the following symptoms: unexplained cough; shortness of breath, especially with activity; fatigue; weight loss or loss of appetite; fever; or night sweats. However, because the disease may develop slowly over a period of many years, workers may have the disease for a long time without knowing it.
Beryllium Sensitization
CBD only develops in workers who have become sensitized to beryllium. A sensitized worker is one who has developed an allergic reaction to beryllium. A worker may become sensitized at any point during job exposure, or in some cases may not become sensitized until after leaving a job where there has been beryllium exposure. Beryllium sensitization can be detected through the use of a blood test called the BeLPT, which stands for beryllium lymphocyte proliferation test. This test measures how specific white blood cells called lymphocytes react to beryllium. A positive test result means that a worker is sensitized.
Acute Beryllium Disease
Acute beryllium disease usually has a quick onset and has symptoms that resemble those of pneumonia or bronchitis. The acute form of the disease is believed to occur as a result of exposures well above the current PEL. This form of beryllium disease is now rare.
Studies of workers exposed to beryllium have demonstrated significantly elevated risks of lung cancer. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the expert cancer agency of the World Health Organization, has concluded that exposure to beryllium can cause lung cancer in humans.
Skin disease
A skin disease, which is characterized by poor wound healing and a rash or wart-like bumps, can occur as a result of the skin being exposed to beryllium dust.
OSHA recommends the following measures to reduce exposure to beryllium in the workplace and to determine whether workers have beryllium sensitization or CBD.
Employers should use appropriate engineering controls and work practices to ensure that worker exposures to beryllium are maintained below the current OSHA PELs to the extent feasible. The following engineering controls and practices should be used by employers:
Employers should ensure that employees use the following safe practices to reduce their exposure to beryllium:
OSHA is aware of CBD cases that have occurred among family members of beryllium-exposed workers. To reduce "carry-home" exposures, employers should provide showers, clean work clothes, and clean areas for storing street clothes. Protective clothing should be provided to employees who work in areas where beryllium-containing powders are used and where there is a potential for spills. In addition, employers should ensure that employees:
Recent data suggest that exposures to beryllium even at levels below the 2 micrograms/m3 PEL may have caused CBD in some workers. Therefore, employers should consider providing their beryllium-exposed workers with air-purifying respirators equipped with 100-series filters (either N-, P-, or R-type) or, where appropriate, powered air-purifying respirators equipped with HEPA filters, particularly in areas where material containing beryllium can become airborne.
Employers should give employees exposed to beryllium training and information about the following items:
To the Employer:
Employers should consider sending beryllium-exposed employees to a physician or other licensed health care professional to be evaluated for beryllium sensitization or the presence of CBD. The screening examination for CBD usually begins with a chest x-ray and a blood test for beryllium sensitization, namely, the BeLPT, plus any further evaluation considered appropriate by the health care professional. The blood test can detect an adverse health response to beryllium exposure earlier than breathing tests or chest x-rays can. The BeLPT is not routinely done in most medical laboratories; however, the health care professional may order this test from any laboratory that has overnight courier service to one of the Medical Research Centers listed below. If a worker is sent to a health care professional for health screening, a copy of this Hazard Information Bulletin should accompany the employee.
To the Employee:
If you work in a place where beryllium is used and have developed any of the symptoms listed below, you should inform your health care professional of your past beryllium exposure, or seek information from a health care professional who specializes in occupational lung diseases to determine whether you may have developed CBD:
If you do not have any of the above symptoms but are concerned that you may have become sensitized to beryllium, you should inform your health care professional that you would like to be tested with the blood BeLPT. Take a copy of this Hazard Information Bulletin with you.
Blood testing for beryllium sensitization
Only the three medical research centers and the one laboratory listed below currently offer the blood test to identify beryllium-sensitized workers as indicated by a positive blood BeLPT. As other research centers and laboratories develop the capacity to screen workers for beryllium sensitization, they will be added to the list.

When we think of Canada, we think of maple syrup, moose, Molson's, Bob & Doug McKenzie, Swiss Chalet and generally gracious & polite people. But such courtesy is toss aside when it comes to hockey. And just like surly sports fans around the globe, some can take a rivalry too far.
The CALGARY SUN reports that an Edmonton Oilers fan was badly beaten by a group of Flames fans still simmering after a loss last Saturday evening.
Andrew Parker was walking the streets of Calgary early Sunday morning in his Oilers jersey, when a car full of canucks clad in Flames jerseys spotted the 22-year-old & started glaring at him. The allegedly inebriated Parker then shouted to the car something to the effect of "How about those Flames!"
About four or five Flames fanatics then supposedly jumped out of their car and started pummeling Parker. The attack left Andrew with a broken nose and fractured cheek bones.
Flames president Ken King condemned the assault, saying the team would "have no interest in having any fans who'd even think of doing such a thing." But he further brushes off suggestions that violence on the rink leads to violence between spectators, even outside the arena:
"It's like suggesting NASCAR fans are reduced to speeding or reckless driving — it's utterly ridiculous."
Parker himself was shocked that he would be so severely attacked, asking, "Do they seriously think I deserved to be beaten?" But he claims that such a cowardly attack "has only made my pride for the Oilers stronger."
However, Parker admits, "In retrospect, I shouldn't have said anything." And he doesn't hold the entire Flames fan base responsible for the act of a fouled-up few, adding "I'm not going to stereotype them. It can happen anywhere."
Michael Platt of the SUN also notes that other Oilers fans aren't calling for any counterattacks on Calgarians. As one Edmonton supporter wrote:
"Those pylons that beat up that kid represent only a VERY small minority of Flames fans. Flames fans might be stupid, inbred, etc., But, all in all, good people."
Once again, Canadian courtesy comes shining through. Can you imagine Raiders & Broncos fans sharing such solidarity after an apparent attack? Or Raiders & Chiefs fans? Or Raiders & Chargers fans? Or Raiders & … well, you get the idea.

"Wonderful return to Harvey's Point"
My 3rd trip to Harvey's Point and still the best hotel experience ever. From the moment of walking in to the warm greeting of welcome, to every aspect of just a perfect break. Coupled with the chance to learn how to paint with the very enigmatic Conal, the whole 4 days was just perfect.. as well as the weather!! It always amazes me how Deirdre finds the time to come and say hello to all the guests at different times of any stay. That sort of customer service is priceless.
Here's to my next stay at Harvey's again, next time with husband Ken and Mac our cherished poodle, who also just loves Harvey's Point!

Verizon's Droid DNA "Hyper Intelligence" ad forgets to mention 5-inch 1080p display
I just came across the new commercial for the HTC Droid DNA called "Hyper Intelligence" which teases the big new handset. You know, the one with a 5-inch 1080p HD display – the first of its kind. You'll have to forgive us for reminding you of the selling feature because Verizon isn't going to tell you. There's nary a mention of the screen size or technology. At first glance, this might just confuse consumers who have no idea what one Droid does over the next.
Maybe the next commercial, huh Verizon?

According to Vulture.com, "Clueless" writer and director Amy Heckerling is working to bring a musical version of her 1995 comedy film to Broadway, and Perry has expressed interest in playing the lead role of Cher, originated on screen by Alicia Silverstone.
"Katy Perry has expressed interest, and I love her to death," Heckerling said. "Maybe Iggy [Azalea] wants to do it!"
The news comes off the heels of the release of Iggy Azalea's music video for the radio hit "Fancy," which riffs off the "Clueless" film.
Heckerling was flattered by the music video and said that a musical version of "Clueless" is in the "really, really, early, early stages."

Charles Green has been criticised for using "racist and offensive language" by a leading anti-racism charity.
Show Racism the Red Card has spoken out against the Rangers chief executive, who made two references in a newspaper interview at the weekend.
Green described his relationship with Rangers director Imran Ahmad in the article, in which he stated he referred to him openly as his "Paki friend".
The Yorkshire-born businessman also made reference to a former team-mate, who he said was known as "Darkie" Johnson.
Green has since defended himself against the accusation, saying the remark to Ahmad is "lighthearted" between the two and says the charity is guilty of a "kneejerk reaction".
Show Racism the Red Card's chief executive Ged Grebby said in a statement: "The comments of Charles Green are very ill-advised and someone in his public position should really know better than to use this kind of racist and offensive language.
"The use of the term 'Paki' is highly offensive and it is something that we at Show Racism the Red Card are trying to educate young people against.
"For the CEO of Rangers to use the term in any context is not helpful as it sends out the wrong message to young people.
"Show Racism the Red Card has a long standing working relationship with Rangers FC. The club is an excellent supporter of our anti-racism and anti-sectarianism campaigns."
Green said in the Sun on Sunday: "When I played at Worksop Town, the other striker was 'Darkie' Johnson. Now if I say that today I could go to jail.
"You know, Imran will come into the office regularly and I'll say 'How's my Paki friend?'"
Rangers chief executive Charles Green commented in a statement to STV: "It is unfortunate that Show Racism the Red Card has fallen into the trap of taking something out of context and giving a kneejerk reaction.
"In the interview I referred to the fact we are now living in a politically correct world where words and phrases that were once used are no longer acceptable.
"My use of the word Paki was when I was referring to how I sometimes warmly address my colleague and friend Imran Ahmad when we meet, something we both know is lighthearted.
"I deplore racism and sectarianism and this football club does a huge amount of work in this area to help eradicate these problems."

Article Summary
It's no secret that juvenile brains are more malleable and able to learn new things faster than adult ones – just ask any adult who has tried to learn a new language. That malleability also enables younger brains to recover more quickly from trauma. Researchers at Yale University have now found a way to effectively turn back the clock and make an old brain young again.

Skip to comments.Philly DA Blows the Whistle on Pennsylvania's State AG
Posted on 03/23/2014 6:33:18 PM PDT by smoothsailing
Philadelphia DA Seth Williams (left) has slammed Pa. AG Kathleen Kane
Prosecutors almost never go to war against each other. But in Pennsylvania, Democratic attorney general Kathleen Kane is being brutally criticized by Seth Williams, Philadelphias district attorney and a fellow Democrat. Williams is upset that last year one of Kanes first acts in office was to decline to prosecute four Philadelphia state legislators and other government officials. In a sting operation, all had been caught accepting cash or Tiffany jewelry in exchange for votes or favors. Kane, who is white, has defended herself, saying that the investigation was badly managed and tainted by racism. She claims the criticism comes from what she calls the Good Ol Boys Club. Williams, who is African American, has shot back: I have seen racism. I know what it looks like. This isnt it.
The sting operation followed pretty much the same playbook as the federal Abscam investigation of the 1970s. Begun in 2010, the Philly probe was conducted under Kanes three immediate predecessors as attorney general, and it resulted in more than 400 hours of video and audio recordings. Tyron B. Ali, a lobbyist originally from Trinidad, served as the undercover agent; after he was charged with fraud, he agreed to wear a wire in exchange for lenient treatment. Word of his cash offers eventually got around and prompted some elected officials to call him first. Sources with knowledge of the sting said the investigation made financial pitches to both Republicans and Democrats, but only Democrats accepted the payments, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported last week.
Attorney General Kane inherited the investigation when she took office in January 2013. She told the Inquirer that she stopped it without filing any charges because it was poorly conceived, badly managed, and tainted by racism. She quoted Claude Thomas, the chief investigator in the case, as saying he had been ordered to target only members of the General Assemblys Black Caucus and to ignore potentially illegal acts by white members.
In response, Williams issued an angry statement and penned an op-ed in Sundays Inquirer. The notion that they would target anyone based on race is ridiculous, Williams said in a statement. I am confident they are not racist, and it is regrettable that the attorney general would casually throw around such an explosive accusation. Thomas, who is also African American, now works for Williams and denies he ever made such a statement.
What is clear is just how damning some of the collected evidence is. The Inquirer reported this exchange between Ali, the lobbyist, and state representative Vanessa Brown:
Ali went to Browns office and handed her an envelope with $2,000, according to people who have reviewed a transcript of a tape Ali made on that day.
As Brown accepted the money, they said, she put it in her purse and said: Yo, good looking and Ooowee. . . . Thank you twice.
After he gave Brown the money, Ali urged her to vote against a bill that would require voters to show identification at the polls, the sources said.
Kanes supporters say that federal law-enforcement officials she consulted believed the probe had suffered from a lack of quality control and could be viewed as entrapment. Is the acceptance of cash alarming? Absolutely, one person close to Kane told the Inquirer. But youve got to think: Ive got to try this case.
It certainly may have been politically awkward for Kane, as a Democrat, to prosecute only African-American defendants, but a conviction on something should have been a slam dunk. Even if prosecutors couldnt prove a quid pro quo, it is illegal for politicians to accept payments to enrich themselves and also illegal not to report the income. Further, the prosecutors in this case have a sterling track record in securing convictions against the leadership of both parties in the legislature, winning 21 convictions in the 2010 Bonusgate scandal, which involved illegal payments to legislative staffers who performed political work. All of those convicted were white.
Kane has declined to answer detailed questions about why she dropped the investigation. Her critics, she says, are playing political games to discredit me in order to fulfill their own selfish and improper agenda. When she met with Inquirer editors last Thursday, she brought her personal attorney and on his advice declined to answer any questions after the meeting. Her attorney says she may file a defamation suit against the paper, a ploy frequently used by public figures to intimidate journalists.
Williams says he is tired of Kanes escalating excuses. He points out that when she took office, the files on the probe were with federal prosecutors who hadnt yet concluded whether they wanted to pursue their own case. All she had to do was leave the investigation in the hands of federal authorities, Williams wrote in Sundays Inquirer. But she didnt do that. Instead, she asked for the files back. And then, after going out of the way to reclaim the investigation, she shut it down.
One bit player in the drama, who had dealings with Ali and was shocked to learn later that Ali was a government agent, says the whole thing reminds him of a John Grisham novel. My vote is for House of Cards. And from what we know so far, it shouldnt be too hard to start matching up some of the Philadelphia players with their dramatic counterparts in the Netflix series.
John Fund is a national-affairs columnist for National Review Online.
Sounds to me like she got the word from Holder to drop it
Her chief "source" has denied the targeting claims, and repudiated several statements attributed to him by Kane.
Williams has the authority to convene a special investigative Grand Jury within his jurisdiction. He should do so, and Kane should be the target of his probe.
The Governor also needs to get legislative action. Under existing PA statute, only the Attorney General can call a multi-county investigative Grand Jury. That needs to be changed so that the Governor can also call such investigations under his own authority, especially in states such as PA, where the attorney general is not part of the Executive. It's time to find out why Kane took this probe out of Federal jurisdiction and then so publicly deep-sixed the whole affair, especially given that the investigators' past track record for bringing in corruption convictions -- against both parties -- was so good.
Can you spell ACCOMPLICE?
Time to file charges against her for malfeasance and corruption. Let's see where those chips fall.
Wouldn't surprise me. She also refuses to defend the state's ban on gay marriage.
Good for DA Williams.
It would be interesting to know if Kane is close in any way to Eric Holder.
This is reminiscent of what Holder did with the New Black Panther turkeys in the Philadelphia voter intimidation case but this seems more serious to me.
Both Kane and Holder are RATS that only enforce laws they see fit to enforce and they seem to not enforce those laws when other RATS and/or minorities are involved.
She's an Eric Holder wannabe. What a disgusting excuse for an AG she is.
My guess is Kane and Holder are in routine contact with each other. Vile lawless lowlifes, both of them.
i am assuming nobody cried racism in this instance...
You're absolutely right, they're both scum.
Bossy will be looking for an AG, and understands from prior experience the value of having a partisan half-wit as the figurehead at DOJ, while some hand-picked Arkansas subaltern runs the actual show.
Can you spell ACCOMPLICE?
Yes, and also COMPLICITY!
Yep. Absolutely corrupt.
Makes sense.You figure she's being groomed or is PIAPS just keeping an eye on her at this point?
Yep, this comes from on high, as a prosecution would make Holder's efforts to throw sand in the gears of Voter ID more suspect.
Dropping the ball on this case, refusing to defend the Commonwealth's DOMA against the ACLU...what exactly does this AG DO?
She works for Holder.
Rule of Law, eh? Amazing... Tyranny in your face. FReegards
While I don't agree with some of what Williams has done, he's taken a couple of stands since taking office that make me think he's a relatively straight shooter (as 'rats go) - the fact that he's black and wants to pursue these cases should put the lie to the excuse that they were brought originally because of racism......
When can we finally ban broads from public office?
Pennsylvania's Democrat AG Kane put on a disgusting performance last week after the "Philadelphia Inquirer" spilled the beans on her dropping of an investigation that had recorded four state legislators from Philly taking bribes.
Kane brought lawyer Richard Sprague down to the newspaper to threaten a defamation suit.
Politicians are getting pretty brazen nowadays with their intimidation of the media in Washington and up here in Pennsylvania as well.
Kane is a Clintonista endorsed by the X-Rated President himself when she ran in the Dem primary for PA AG in 2012.
If you see posts of interest to Pennsylvanians, please ping me.
Thanks smoothsailing for the heads up
No racism involved. There are plenty of corrupt white democRats in Pennsylvania in general, and Philthadelphia in particular.
About time someone takes on this lunatic AG.
Even better that it's one of her own party.
A friend of mine went to high school with Williams, still knows him and told me when Williams was elected that he would be a straight shooter, which is a very refreshing change after that corrupt hag Lynn Abraham.
P.O.E. - Please pass this to the PA ping group for wider distribution.
Be advised, all PA Gunnies:
CeaseFire PA is calling us "Parasites" now.
Video at link
I'm sure we can put together a sizable number of gunnies to show up at their events...
Far fewer Democrats would get elected, that's for sure.
I just saw this reported on Fox News.
I am totally disgusted, we now live in a country where your political party affiliation ALONE allows you to blatantly break the laws that the rest of us MUST follow.
Because they are Dems and Black?
This will only embolden crooks to greater illegal acts by Dems since they KNOW there will be no consequences FOR THEM. ALL they have to do is be Black?

"Great, sturdy french press"
This french press is great! We had one small glass one, and I'm always afraid of breaking it. This one is nice and sturdy, not too heavy (which I'm always worried about with Le Creuset), and large! It makes plenty for 2-3 large cups of coffee, and keeps it warm longer than the glass press we have.
I do think that some kind of markers on the inside to indicate when I've filled to the top would be good, so that I don't end up with grinds in the spout as I pour, but not a deal-breaker

Quality inferior
I love le crueset and I really loved this french press. It made fabulous coffee, and seemed sturdy and well-made. However, within two weeks of receiving it, the top broke under normal use. The quality is not up to the standard I have come to expect from le crueset. For the price, it should have lasted longer, way longer

Beautiful press
I love the color of this french press and always expect high quality from Le Crueset. These items, since not cast iron, are made in China which I didn't realize until purchasing. Not as heavy as I thought it might be (good thing) and a bit tighter fit than a standard glass press. I find that grounds always appear in that first pour so I pour out the first tablespoon or so to get rid of them before drinking. Time will tell if it holds up to daily use and cleaning. For now I am very happy with the product and would recommend it

"Not what I expected"
It is pretty but I thought it would at least some insulating value. That is why I bought it. I'm not sure it has much more than the glass style that I've always used. I heat it up before hand and that helps; but, it is just plain old ceramic with no interior insulation or anything as it seems to suggest. Also, it is heavy and will be a continual "fragile" item for washing...both the body and the lid. With the glass version, I wasn't quite as worried about breakage. Pretty -- but not worth the hype.

Love the French Press
Jennifer M on Sep 27, 2015
re: Le Creuset® Cherry French Press, if the stem filter breaks, must one purchase an entire new French press - or are parts available?
Are there any other colors
Best Answer: At this time we only carry this French press in cherry.
Reply · Report · AmandaSltCsStaff on May 6, 2013
Is the glaze / paint lead-free? Are the metal components free of hazardous materials? Thank you!
Best Answer: Yes and yes. i love this - it retains heat better than my glass French press, no my stainless steal press is the best at that (it's also damn near indestructible). Le Creuset is great if you're going to drink the coffee almost immediately, it's safe and gorgeous to look at.

How to Apply for the CEI Internship Program
Contact: Richard Morrison, firstname.lastname@example.com
Policy interns are assigned to work with one or two policy analysts for the duration of their internship. Interns have the opportunity to research important policy issues and are expected to have strong writing, research, and analytical skills. The cover letter should detail what the student wants to gain from an internship at CEI.
Experiences Offered
Interns participate in public policy research in one of CEI many issue areas. In addition to policy research, CEI offers internships in communications, video, development, operations, and Web and IT.
CEI offers both paid and unpaid internships. Upon being interviewed, exceptional applicants may be offered a stipend. Internships for which the student receives academic credit are always unpaid.
Unfortunately, CEI is unable to provide interns with housing. However, interns have several options in addition to independently finding rental units. Washington Intern Student Housing provides year-round housing for interns, and Georgetown University, The George Washington University, and American University offer summer intern housing.
Application Materials
Submit your resume, a cover letter, and a brief writing sample as a single PDF attachment to email@example.com.
Warren T. Brookes Journalism Fellowship:
CEI is no longer accepting applications for the Warren Brookes Journalism Fellowship. Thank you!
About Warren T. Brookes
During his 16 years with the Boston Herald and the Detroit News, and as a nationally-syndicated columnist, Warren T. Brookes, in the words of Thomas Bray of the Detroit News, "made a virtual career out of questioning the conventional wisdoms of the so-called experts." He "delighted precisely in the unconventional wisdom, not only about economics but also about a wide range of subjects."
Warren Brookes and CEI had a special relationship, sharing information and trading the woeful tales that inevitably arise from working in Washington. After Brookes' death in 1991, CEI established the Warren T. Brookes Fellowship to keep his legacy alive. Through the program, CEI identifies and trains talented young people and experienced journalists who wish to improve their knowledge of environmental issues and free market economics. In this manner, the program seeks to perpetuate Brookes' tradition of reporting from a sound scientific and economic perspective.
Current Fellow
Carrie Sheffield is the 2015 Warren Brookes Journalism Fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute. She is a columnist and broadcaster in Manhattan. An online contributor with Forbes, she is a regular guest on national television and radio shows.

"Ryou!! We need to find them before they find the Mew Aqua!" Ichigo demands, slamming her fist on the table.
He says, "So happy to see you coming back to your old self. I was worried there was an Ichigo twin."
Ichigo has a vein pulsing on her head after she heard that. "Hey, there are more important things to worry about then my attitude twenty minutes ago." She appears to prepare herself as she tells him, "I understand that this sudden fighting spirit just came out of nowhere after I was just ready to commit suicide in the corner but lets be reasonable here! Yeah, it hurts but that cannot be Kisshu!"
Taruto asks, "What do you mean that cannot be Kisshu? It looks like him, sounds like him, and acts like him before this whole truce thing!"
"Exactly!" Ichigo agrees, turning around to look at him. "What's with the sudden change of heart? It's only been like what? A few days since Selena took him away when we all thought he was killed. Now he's acting like he wants to destroy the world!"
"It took him only an hour to turn from wanting to kill you to wanting to protect you," Taruto reminds. "If the idiot really did fall for Selena then it really should be no trouble for him to want to destroy earth."
As much as what he just said hurt Ichigo, she tries to keep her fighting fire burning as she points out, "Exactly! That's what's weird! Lets not think about me or Selena here for a minute. Even if he really did.." she tries to push the words out, "fallen for her, why would he want to fight you two or even want to kill you? You three are like brothers."
Pai, who was standing right next to Taruto, looks down at him and he looks up at the older alien. She has a good point.
"And besides, she casted a spell on Mew Angel!" Ichigo points to the wounded angel on the chair who's getting her wounds treated by Lettuce. "Why would she cast a spell on her to not speak of what she saw? It sounds pretty suspicious to me and it must mean that whoever was with Selena must not have been him!"
Mint had to ask, "How did you figure all of this out on your own, exactly?" Now Ichigo has three veins pulsing on her head.
"Just because I don't have a decent grade in history or math does not mean I'm stupid!" she growls, her fists in tight balls. She turns to Mew Angel when she calmed down and she asks, "Mew Angel, just tell me this much. You noticed something, right? That's why Selena did what she did, right?"
The attention is turned to her. Mew Angel looks down at the ground and she answers, "I did notice something."
Desperate now, Taruto asks, "Was it
a copy of him maybe?"
Mew Angel was going to speak but then the spell took its effects on her. Her throat became extremely dry and when she tried to speak, no voice came out. The mews and the aliens stare when she doesn't speak and her hand goes to her throat to show that the spell is taking its toll on her. Before anyone spoke about it, Mew Angel tries a different approach. She starts to move her head. But then she feels a pain in her neck. She tries to move it to see what's wrong and her movement causes her to shake her head.
Taking that as an answer, Pai asks, "Then it was a control spell maybe?"
Selena tries to move her head again but it hurts in one direction but not the other. She ends up nodding and the mews as well as the other aliens gasp from this new information, all but Ichigo. She looks like she's thinking of something painful and does not like it one bit.
Hearing enough of it, Keiichiro turns to his computers and his fingers start typing away. Hearing the clicks of the keyboard, all but Mew Angel look at him and he explains, "I'm gonna update the sensitivity on our radars to see if anything about the Mew Aqua will pop up." After he presses enter, many alarms came up. He gasps at the results.
Ryou asks, "What is it, Keiichiro?"
He answers, "We're already a tad too late. Selena and Kisshu are already at a Mew Aqua signal and it's getting bigger."
"What, na no da?!" Pudding asks in shock.
Quickly and desperate, Ichigo asks, "Where are they?!"
"Right at the edge of Tokyo, near the canal!"
Mint then says, "But it'll take us forever to get there! We won't make it in time!"
Taruto asks her, rather upset that they've been forgotten, "What do you think we CAN do? Hurry up and transform so we can fight as soon as we get there!"
"But what about Mew Angel's wounds?" Lettuce asks.
Mew Angel stands up and tells them, "I'm fine." Since she's not talking about what she saw, the spell wears off for now but her voice sounds horsy. She turns to them and tells them, "We have to hurry or the planet really will be nothing more than a dead rock."
Hearing that causes some of the mews to gulp in nervousness. Talk about a serious burden they have to carry on their shoulders. They know the risks if they failed and right now, they've been failing way too often. The girls take out their pendants and they transform.
"Mew Mew Mint
"Mew Mew Lettuce
"Mew Mew Pudding
"Mew Mew Zakuro
"Mew Mew Strawberry
As soon as they transformed, Taruto and Pai teleported not only themselves but also the mews and Mew Angel to the destination Keiichiro just gave them. When they arrive in the outside air, filled with the smell of lake water and near by company smoke, they look up only to meet a blinding light. They tried to protect their eyes as the light got bigger.
Inside that bright white light, there is Selena and the white light is coming from the crown on her head. Her eyes are closed and her expression is peaceful as she's flouting in mid air and Kisshu below her, watching this happening to her. Soon her eyes open as if she's waking up from a peaceful sleep and the light begins to dim. Then her body begins to glide back down to the ground. As she comes down, Kisshu goes up closer and opens his arms to her. When the light was completely gone and the mews and aliens could look again, they see Selena smiling as she glides right into Kisshu's open arms. She hugs him and he hugs her.
He tells her, "I don't think I ever saw anything so amazing, Selena."
She giggles and her voice sound like warm milk and honey as she tells him, "That was the last Mew Aqua, Kisshu. Soon, very soon. You will see something even more amazing." He pulls her away and his hand cups her cheeks and he smirks while staring deep into her eyes.
"I think I already have."
She smirks too and both of them share an innocent, sweet kiss. But to Taruto, there is nothing so innocent about it.
"Hey, dumbass!!" he yells.
Hearing him, both Selena and Kisshu break the kiss and look up to see the whole gang. They didn't seem to mind the interuption. Kisshu greets, "Hello, brat! How are you?" He sounded as carefree and as cheerful as the Kisshu they all know and miss.
Taruto has a vein pulsing on his head and his body is shaking as he growls, "Don't call me a brat, you dop!" He calms down and yells with a bit more control, "Listen to us, Kisshu! You're being controlled! You don't love that demon over there and you know you don't! So break the act and come over here!"
"Being controlled?" Selena asks.
Kisshu asks, "Break the act?"
They look at each other before exploding into laughter. They hold their stomachs and bend over in complete laughter, making Taruto a little angry for making him feel like an idiot and making the others worried if maybe they were wrong. After a few moments, they calmed down and Kisshu was wiping away the tears from his eyes.
"I'm not being controlled."
"And he's not pulling off an act." Selena goes to Kisshu and hugs him with her arms around his waist and her head leaning against his chest. "You people just don't understand what we have. Only can I tell you would you understand. But yet again, maybe not." Now Taruto is growling.
Pai places a hand on his shoulder to calm him down and he says, "Control yourself, Taruto."
He asks in a whisper, "How can I when this wench in front of me is speaking in riddles?! I want to send her sorry little ass to hell where it belongs and don't you dare stop me this time!" Pai is a bit surprise by the younger alien's snap.
Hearing them, Kisshu and Selena smirk in delight as Kisshu pulls away from Selena's hold. Her arms slide off him and Kisshu yells, "If you want to fight her, you have to fight me first. Although think of fighting me as a way to save your life while you still can. I didn't promise anyone that I would kill anybody if I fight you. I can play with you for a bit before I start getting serious."
Finally, it became Ichigo's turn to talk.
"Kisshu, please! You know that we don't want to fight you and I know that you don't want to fight us! You don't have to stop loving Selena if that's how you feel. Just don't hurt anyone anymore. That's all I ask."
Selena and Kisshu stare at her after she said that, so did the rest of the team. Selena narrows her eyes and thinks, 'She's giving up on him, huh? Only because she believes in him, despite her own pain.'
Mew Angel thinks, 'Ichigo
you're trying to be strong when you're the one in pain.'
There was silence for a moment and all anyone did was stare Ichigo. She on the other hand is looking staring at Kisshu, pleading with all of her heart to just at stop fighting them. Then pain flickers on Kisshu's face.
His hand goes to his chest, right where his heart should be and he gasps out, "Aaahh!!" His cry and his sudden collapse to his knees causes now everyone to turn their attention to him.
"Kisshu?" Selena calls in confusion. She kneels down to his side as the mews and the other aliens are confused and uncertain about what to do. "Kisshu! What's wrong?"
He just mumbles, "It's done." Selena's eyes widen for a moment in realization of what he means.
Her eyes look a bit sad for a moment before saying, "I see then. This masquerade is over." Her hand goes to his chin and she lifts his face up to her. She tells him, "You did well. Thank you." Then she kisses him, softly and lovely. But as she kisses him, his body begins to turn white like mist and then it fades away. She opens her eyes and he's gone. Now everyone is basically confused.
Before they could even ask what the heck is going on, Selena stands up and only looks down at the ground where Kisshu once was. All they see is her back and just by looking at it, they can tell that something is upsetting her. But when she turns around to look at them, her face betrays no emotion but as-a-matter-of-fact.
"Kisshu will be returned to you shortly."
She can see that they are all very confused but she still continues. "What was with me since the time in front of the café and now was only a copy of him, a clone if you must and I was controlling him. What I said in front of the café was the whole truth. Now once Kisshu is returned to you, it's up to you on what you will do with him."
"Hold on!" Taruto yells. She stares at him and he asks, "That was a clone of him?"
"You heard me," she answers. Then Taruto turns to Mew Angel.
"I thought you said that it was him, only he was being controlled!"
Mew Angel looks like she was trying to say something but she can't. She's surprised by this and Selena says, "You couldn't speak of it and yet you were able to give away that he might be controlled?" Her sister looks up at her and it was if instantly, Selena understood. "I see. Your neck. It was hurting wasn't it, when you were going to tell the truth?" Now the mews and the aliens are surprise. Mew Angel still only stares at Selena as if waiting for her sister to do something.
And something does happen.
"Mew Angel, your neck!" Lettuce yells, almost sounding like a screech. Mew Angel looks at her throat and it's glowing black. Selena's hand is black and she raises it up to point her now glowing black fingers at her.
"Since I was the one who spilled the beans, you may speak of what you saw earlier today and you may speak in his presence. But not with me. When you are with me, you are to remain absolutely silent. Unless by chance that I relieve you of this spell or you break it yourself."
Then her hand stops glowing and so does Mew Angel's neck. Mew Angel touches her now glowing neck and looks back at Selena, her throat still dry and possibly nothing will come out.
Then Selena suddenly looks like she's enjoying with the outcomes of her actions. She puts a smirk on her face and her eyes reveal to them just how entertained she is. "Before I leave and report to Master Deep Blue on what has happened, there is one more thing I want to say." She raises her hand again and points a finger at Ichigo. She braces herself for the worst but all Selena says is, "Momomiya Ichigo, remember this. The one who holds Kisshu's heart in her hands is me. Your life and heart may belong to him but his heart and his life belong to me and me alone. Same thing goes for me too. For you see, we both cannot survive without the other."
Mew Angel's flinch when she heard that as Ichigo asks, "Wh-What do you mean?"
Selena lowers her finger and answers, "I take it that my beloved sister didn't tell you then. Despite my back being turned against heaven, I am still connected to Kisshu, even if I hated the idea to the depths of my soul. I know that many of you wish for my death and the only way to stop me is to kill me but there is a price. In order for you to kill me, another life must be sacrificed. Kisshu can only survive in this world so long as I am alive."
Hearing this causes a crack on the other side. It was like their strong forte has just been cracked in half and will now break into a thousand pieces. Selena liked this reaction.
"Don't worry, though. Kisshu is very weak right now and I'm full of energy. I guess you can say that I am only his life source. Not his twin that suffers as he has suffers but knowing that he can't stay alive without me! That's how deep our bond is and no one, not even you Ichigo can ever sever that bond, unless you want Kisshu's death on your head!"

If the voting reaches a certain threshold, the performer moves on, and the performer can see how the voting is going during the performance, so the feedback is immediate and dramatic.
