Captain Broahm hadn't been asleep nearly long enough when he was dumped unceremoniously from his bunk onto the floor. Cursing, he'd barely gotten his bearings before the ship righted itself, tossing him backwards into the bulkhead, sending a blinding flash of lightning through his already aching head.
His left eye clouded, and he wiped at the blood that was pooling there from a fresh gash on his forehead.
"Bugger," he grumbled, pulling himself upright with help from the cargo nets lining the sleeping quarters.
Staggering out of the still swaying cabin into the hallway, he climbed the ladder onto the bridge and found the first officer white knuckled at the wheel. Half the instrument lights were out or flickering and several of the windows were missing, broken glass scattered across the console and onto the floor.
"Grady, what the hell was that? You hit something?"
The startled first officer turned and stammered "Plane, I think, hit us. It's out there in the water." He pointed out the battered port side windows into the darkness. In the distance, lights flickered in and out of view as the waves rocked the ship.
"Any plane hit us like that would be in pieces at the bottom of the ocean by now." Broahm shouldered open the door to get a clearer view from the deck. Both hands gripping the railing against the rocking of the ship, he could see clearly another vessel hanging just off their port side. Broahm blinked, and rubbed his eyes. The other vessel appeared to be sitting just above the water, the waves sliding harmlessly beneath its hull.
Broahm shook his head, wiping again at the blood trickling into his eye. Maybe he'd taken more of a bang than he'd realized.
"Must be a life raft," he thought before yelling back into the cabin, "Grady, fetch us a flare and the glasses."
The first officer appeared in the doorway moments later with a flare gun and a pair of binoculars.
"Sir," he said, handing the equipment to the Captain.
Broahm took the gear from him, firing the flare into the night sky and scoping the other craft through the glasses as the pyrotechnic turned nighttime into midday.
The other craft sat still, featureless, long and narrow, hovering just above the water. As Broahm searched its length, he lit upon a figure standing on a platform, partially submerged in the water off the side. It was looking up, watching the flare arc across the sky. Easily as tall as he was, perhaps taller with no visible clothing and a large blunt face split by the thin line of a mouth that wrapped nearly half way around its head. From where its ears should have been stared large unblinking eyes. Running down the side of its neck, ribbon-like slits undulated as waves washed over them, its body slick and glistening in the artificial daylight.
"Grady, get us the bloody hell out of here." Broahm yelled back into the cabin without looking.
He felt warmth tracing its way back down his forehead towards his eye, and absently wiped it away, flinging the fluid into the sea. As the red droplets hit the water, he caught a flurry of movement through the glasses. The creature was looking right at him now, lips peeled back revealing rows upon rows of jagged teeth. Broahm's stomach knotted at the realization that whatever it was, it was smiling.
From Wikipedia: Flash Fiction - 'Flash fiction differs from vignettes in that the works contain the classic story elements: protagonist, conflict, obstacles or complications, and resolution. However, unlike a traditional short story, the limited word length often forces some of these elements to be unwritten, that is, hinted at or implied in the written storyline.'
In the case of 365tomorrows - Flash Fiction is a story of ideally 500 words, and new in the 3rd year a 600 word maximum.
StJoan issued a Lit Command - "Write a piece entitled: fuck you, I'm a space shark". Technically isn't exactly titled that, but it's the underlying message. Consider the command acted upon.

They're gonna need a bigger boat. Selachimorpha da Spazio by `SRSmith is a wonderful piece of disturbing flash fiction. ( Suggested by Kiresg and Featured by Halatia )
SPAAAAAAAAAACE SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK! lol congrats on the DD!
Cool read here
Awesome read!
wow! is there more???
Congrats on the daily deviation! The way you wrote this made it so clear for me to imagine it, like I was really there! The last paragraph was my favorite, a total cliffhanger. :]
Excellent! I love the title.
hey, Steve - congratulations on the DD!
ain't validation grand?
ain't validation grand?
I'm creeped out already.... *shudders*
Bwahahaha. I can see the smile, and it is straight out of Finding Nemo, only with much more of an R rating. This is absolutely tops.
Only one nit-pick: ribbon like -> ribbon-like?

very nice work.
Space sharks at sea? Very interesting indeed.
Caught a typo: From where it's ears should have been -- "it's" should be the possessive "its" instead.

I can't believe you made "space shark" sound serious - now that's talent right there
Thanks very much! It was on demand (see my notes on the piece re: StJoan's Lit Command), and I couldn't quite bring myself to camp it up.
Awesome story man, if you ever publish anything longer you better let me know!
Thanks very much! I intend to produce something much longer, and hopefully I'll see it in circulation at some point in the future. When that happens you can be sure I'll make a great deal of noise about it!
Hahaha, oh man! That's amazing that ^StJoan gave you that prompt and you actually made it work. As everyone else said, the last paragraph was incredible. It sort of reminds me of [link] (This is the Introduction, which you have to watch first, but Entry #1 is the one that this reminds me of. It's very well done, just like this.)
It was a lot of fun. The prompt just got lodged in my head and percolated for a bit, as these things do. That video project looks pretty cool too!
Thanks for the comment and the !

Thanks! She posted somewhere (Twitter?) that Lit Command, and I couldn't help but write a story about it. Glad you enjoyed it!
I somehow get the feeling that Broahm and Grady's ship might not be fast enough to get them out of their little predicament!
Nice short Steve!

i agree with MSpaintdog, the last paragraph is WOW
Thanks for the comment and . I only rewrote the ending a dozen times or so before it felt right. I'm apparently a little obsessive in that regard.
That last paragraph.....Whoa!Niiice.

American tries to entice top United fliers
American Airlines has finally decided to take advantage of the problems many United Airlines fliers have experienced since the merger with Continental Airlines was completed on March 3. In an extremely rare move, American is now offering conditions-free top-elite status match to United's most loyal customers.
Having read and heard about many United customers' troubles after the carrier adopted Continental's reservations system — and having encountered some problems myself — I e-mailed American spokesman Tim Smith on March 16. Smith has been the best PR person to deal with at any airline since I started writing my column in the Washington Times in 2008. I asked him whether American had any intention of capitalizing on United customers' dissatisfaction by stealing some of them away through a status-match offer…
Diplomats decry new United pet policy
Nearly 3,000 U.S. diplomats have urged United Airlines to extend to them a waiver from its more expensive and "unfriendly" new pet travel policy that the carrier has granted the military, the diplomats' union said. While it took United just days to exempt the military, it has been mulling the State Department's request for weeks.
The biggest hurdle appears to be the lack of understanding by United's management — as is the case with most people — what the Foreign Service does, and why diplomats' service to their country is no less important than the military's. That's exactly why — long before this issue arose — I decided to write my upcoming book "America's Other Army"…
Did United choose the best rez system?
The decision by United Airlines' management to use Continental's Shares reservations system for the merged carrier has been causing serious problems since its implementation last weekend. So the news that the airline is working on a new version of its IT platform, integrating some of the features of the pre-merger United's Apollo system, is very welcome, indeed.
It was hardly surprising that CEO Jeff Smisek and his team chose to keep Shares, given that most policies and practices of the combined carrier have followed the way Continental did business under Smisek. But in this case, the decision made good financial sense — Continental has owned Shares for years, while United paid Travelport, the company that owns Apollo…
Rethinking government air travel costs
It's no secret that the U.S. government wastes huge amounts of money on airfare, and that waste has been institutionalized. So it's hardly a surprise that Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul has done the same, as an Associated Press story pointed out yesterday.
The reason for the story was the apparent discrepancy between Paul's crusade against excessive government spending and his own spending. But while he did waste taxpayers' money, he didn't break any rules. So perhaps it's time for the rules to change. Government employees are usually required to buy full-fare tickets — meaning Y or B booking class — when traveling on business. The main reason for that is to have the flexibility to change and cancel those tickets for free…
United steps up fake 'direct' flights
United Airlines, already one of the biggest abusers of fake "direct" flights before its merger with Continental, has increased further the number of those flights in its schedule. Its oddest decision was to introduce fictitious "direct" flights, which consist of two or more segments with nothing in common but their number, between its hubs.
If you are shopping for a ticket from Chicago (ORD) to Denver (DEN), be very careful which flight you book. In addition to 10 daily nonstops with flying time of about 2 hours, United currently has three "direct" flights on that route, but they make a "stop" in Minneapolis (MSP), Des Moines, Iowa, (DSM) and Kansas City, Mo., (MCI), respectively…
Proper airfare advertising comes to U.S.
This should not be news, but it is: U.S. airlines have finally begun advertising some airfares properly, meaning they now show round-trip prices instead of the longtime marketing ploy of "each way based on a required round-trip purchase." But those are just baby steps, as some taxes and fees are still being excluded.
When I wrote about false fare advertising in 2008, my copy editor at the Washington Times put this headline on my column: "Fare sales often lost in translation." I compared the deliberately misleading airline practice to the mysterious "Twin Peaks" revelation "The owls are not what they seem." I also wondered, If a round trip is required, why on earth is only half of the actual fare being advertised?…
Delta SkyMiles needs new leadership
Delta Airlines has cemented its status as the network U.S. carrier with the worst frequent-flier program, further devaluing its long-cheapened SkyMiles. The leadership of the program or the airline — or perhaps both — doesn't seem to understand what the loyalty business in 2011 is about. It may be time for a new team at the top.
For more than a year, Delta failed to publish an award redemption chart for most of the world, resulting in lack of transparency about how many miles were really needed for an award ticket. When it finally unveiled a chart this week, the mileage rates on many routes were increased significantly. Many loyal SkyMiles members felt cheated and disrespected, calling Delta's move a "stunt" in comments posted on FlyerTalk, the largest online travel community…
US Airways denies StarNet blocking
US Airways has denied recent suspicion that it has begun to block award seats made available by its Star Alliance partners for mileage redemption by members of its Dividend Miles program — a practice pioneered by United Airlines, which I first exposed in 2008.
The airline has been silent on the issue since reports about apparent blocking surfaced last fall. Many travelers said they found award inventory on various Star carriers, using one or more of the publicly available sources — the websites of All Nippon Airways, Continental Airlines and Air Canada — but US Airways agents were unable to see those available seats…
U.S. carriers tighten routing rules
Do you sometimes prefer making a connection or two instead of taking a nonstop flight, either to save money or rack up more frequent-flier miles? You might have to change your ways. Domestic U.S. transfers are now allowed much less frequently than before, and making connections on flights between an airline's hubs is almost impossible.
No big deal, you might say. Wouldn't any reasonable person choose a nonstop any time? Not necessarily. Different travelers have different priorities — some would rather save time, others money. But the best thing about the previous practice was that passengers had options. Now, that's no longer the case…
Keeping United international first class
Should the new United Airlines have international first class, like the old United, or not, like the old Continental Airlines? Most frequent fliers expect a decision in favor of one of the two models, but why not go with a mixed model? Why not keep first class on routes where it makes business sense, and fly two-cabin planes where it doesn't?
Since the two carriers' merger was announced in May, there have been many opinions in online travel forums advocating just coach and business class, but it's hard to see the world's largest airline without long-haul first class at all. Continental may call its premium cabin BusinessFirst, but it's business class…

"One day we were sitting around and we said why don't we go to Green Bay and enlist? And I said--"Gee I hate to put in three years," Wendt remembers. "And he (the recruiter) let us enlist for two years."
Two days later Wendt and his friends were en route to Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri. After basic training, Wendt would be dispatched to Germany with the 37th Engineer Group with war planners in the S-2 section.
"Like the Operation: Desert Storm" That's the type of things we'd do," Wendt said. "Then when they went out on maneuvers they'd act that out because there wasn't an actual war on at the time."
After his service ended, Wendt tried different jobs and found a home at Smith and Schartner Trucking. He bought part-ownership in 1961, retired in 2000 and sold off his interest earlier this year. But for most of that time, Wendt has been an American Veterans or AMVETS member. He got involved after meeting some disabled veterans in Milwaukee.
"Went up to the tenth floor and saw those paraplegics laying there. Somebody had to turn them over. Somebody had to pick them up, get them to the bathroom, all that kind of stuff," Wendt recalled. "And I thought--"These guys need help."
Wendt made regular visits to various veterans' facilities, including the Wisconsin Veterans Home in King. He's helped raise money for various needs with help from a network of friends.
"Dave Ripp at "The Nightingale". Dave, I've got a party I want to throw. Well how much to you need? Three-hundred, five hundred," said Wendt. "And he writes out a check. He don't ask no questions."
Ken Wendt has literally put his money where his mouth is when it comes to helping veterans. When fundraising efforts for the Door County Veterans Memorial fell short, he and three friends took out 18-thousand dollars in personal loans to make sure it got done."
Wendt has also chaperoned "Old Glory Honor Flights", received numerous citations for his service and was appointed to the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs. But Wendt says all are just tokens compared to the real honor he gets.
"The satisfaction of seeing those guys smile and knowing that they're being taken care of," Wendt said. "That's what's really important."
Local 5's Terry Kovarik has the story.

Rivers ex-lawmaker assassinated in Port Harcourt— 2 hours ago
A former member of Rivers State House of Assembly, Monday Eleanya, has been murdered in Port Harcourt.
For actress, mother and wife, Juliet Ibrahim, acting was never on the front burner. Her dream had always been to sing and to model. Today, however, she is one of Gollywood's most popular faces following her break through after she played the lead role alongside aspiring Majid Michel back in 2005 in Crime To Christ.
In this interview with TONY EGHAGAE ERHARIEFE, the mother of a baby boy, entrepreneur, and Best Actress in a Leading Role award winner, opened up on growing up, how she met her husband and her turbulent childhood. She also spoke about how she is giving back through her NGO, Juliet Ibrahim Foundation.
At what age did you realize that you wanted to be an actress?
It all began when I was a little girl. I aspired to be a musician and a model. Acting wasn't really my dream from the beginning; I stumbled on it in 2004 when I was 18.
What was it like acting alongside Majid Michel in your debut movie, Crime to Christ in 2005?
Acting alongside Majid was fun because he is a fun person and knows his onions when it comes to acting. I co-starred with Majid Michel when he was just starting out and wasn't well known too. So it was just a case of me getting a shot at what I had always dreamt of doing which is acting. It was a wonderful experience.
You are one of Ghana's hottest actresses but you have Lebanese and Liberian parentage. How did you break into Gollywood? And how come you're a Ghanaian citizen?
The question of my heritage has been raised over and over again. It's in the open and has never been kept a secret. My father is Lebanese and my mother is half Liberian and half Ghanaian. So that makes me as much Ghanaian as I want to be. As for how I broke into the Ghanaian movie industry, it was by chance. I stumbled on acting in 2004 after I had just won a beauty pageant and was crowned Miss Ghana Institute of Languages (Queen of Languages). I went to try out my luck at an audition for one of Ghana's biggest film production companies and I never knew that was going to be the turning point in my life. I didn't just land a role, I got the lead role and was given a script to feature in Crime to Christ, where I played the role of the girlfriend of a notorious armed robber. The rest as they say is history.
Tell us about your experience as a model and how you were discovered?
I started my modeling career as a runway and editorial model modeling for the big designer brands in Ghana like Royal Dennis, B Exotic, Joyce Ababio, Karim Isaka, Art Michael, Dark and Lovely, Woodin and GTP Fabric. I have also featured in countless commercials notably Wrangler Jeans and Veltins Beer.
Your rise in Gollywood and your recognition in Nollywood is strong. What is the secret of your success?
I would attribute that to God, hard work, consistence, diligence and persistence. Even the Bible backs it up in Proverbs 22 verse 29: 'Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.' Every job has its challenges, the way you're able to overcome the obstacles you encounter in the course of your work is what keeps you on top.
Did you ever experience sexual harassment as a green horn in Gollywood?
Thank God I never did.
Were your parents supportive?
Of course! Right from the beginning I had always nursed the ambition of becoming a musician and model at a young age and my parents encouraged me and never discouraged me at anytime. I grew up watching so many celebrities in Hollywood and dreaming of being like them someday and my parents fueled my dreams by buying me every new album of any musician back in the day just to keep me updated. I was a huge Celine Dion fan and when we were asked to write an essay on what we would like to be when we grew up in the 7th grade, I wrote that I wanted to be an international model and musician. I didn't have acting in my plans, although I had acted a few times in senior high school. I've always been the shy type so I preferred singing at talent shows whilst hiding behind sunglasses.
We understand that you're married and have a baby. How do you juggle motherhood, acting and taking care of your husband?
I have a close knit family and we help each other out. My mum is there and so are my sisters. When I'm not around I know my son is in good hands. However, I make time to be with him as much as possible. Just like myself, my husband is also in a busy profession, perhaps busier than myself but we always manage our time well so we can have quality time together. Marriage is a beautiful thing and motherhood is awesome; these two are not things you would want to miss out on.
How did you meet your husband?
I met my husband on a plane, he is a pilot. We exchanged numbers and started talking but he was living in the USA then so it was a long distance relationship. We became very good friends over time. It became more serious when he moved back to Ghana a few years back. We fell in love and decided we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together.
Tell us about growing up?
My childhood was very eventful because we grew up in war torn countries so my family and I were always relocating. I grew up in Liberia, Lebanon and Ivory Coast before we finally moved back to Ghana. There were happy moments when I was in school but most of my childhood moments are not quite exciting and worthy of recounting.
How many kids are you in the family?
We are four; I'm the eldest. I have a younger sister, Sonia, then there's my brother, Nabil and my youngest sister, Nadia.
Aside acting, what else do you do?
I run a production company called Jewelz Production and a modeling/talent agency called Dolfins the Juliet Ibrahim Foundation, a Non Governmental Organization which focuses on creating awareness about cancer of the kidney and other kidney related issues. I also run a beauty parlor, Envoque and a boutique, House of Glamour in Ghana. I also sing and I have a single, Celebrate, featuring Ghana Dancehall star, Jupita.
If there is one thing Gollywood is very good at doing, its soft porn movies. What's your opinion on this?
Well, as far as I'm concerned, you won't see me acting a porn movie, not even for all the money or fame in the world. Like I said in one interview, those kind of movies are not movies from reputable producers; they are done by some new and money conscious producers, that's why they are not tastefully done.
What project are you working on right now?
My foundation is about kidney cancer but we get requests from people with other types of ailment soliciting for help all the time. The one we are presently working on is the case of a 3-year-old girl, Moyinoluwa Olasoji who has cancer of the eye. She is from Ile Ife, Osun State, and she needs N5 million for a surgery in India. I'm also premiering the first movie I eveproduced, Number 1 Fan, in Ghana this month.
How do you relax?
I love to go on vacation, pamper myself at the spa, reading and listening to music.
You're multi-lingual; you speak Spanish, French and English. How come?
I was raised in different countries, so as a child, it was very easy for me to pick up those languages and learn fast.
What's been the craziest thing a male fan did to you?
Crazy? (Laughs) Well I never stick around that long for any fan to act crazy around me. I haven't come across stubborn stalkers yet. I had a stalker years back and I had to involve the police till he stopped.
You're such a beautiful woman. Now that you're married and have a baby, how are you handling male attention?
I don't need to handle male attention; my wedding ring does most of the talking. I'm married so that's enough to keep everyone at arm's length. I'm civil with all my fans; I love them all and appreciate them irrespective of their gender.
What's been your saddest moment?
I had a tumultuous childhood. I have experienced wars in different countries and watched my family lose everything we own on different occasions because we had to run for our lives. I can't start recounting all the sad moments I have experienced.
What's been your most challenging experience as an actor and how did you overcome?
The most challenging experience as an actor is the fact that you have to keep doing what you do best to stay in the game and remain a role model to the fans who look up to you.
Could you share your happiest moment with us?
My happiest moment was when I had my son, Jayden.
What's your advice for youngsters who want to walk in your footsteps?
Believe in yourself, stay focused, never let anyone talk you out of your dreams and most importantly, put God first in all you do.
Who are your role models in acting?
My role models consist of all the great actors we have in Ghana, Nigeria and beyond. The American movie stars I regard as my role models include Catherine Zeta Jones, Vivica Fox, Tyler Perry, Celine Dion and Beyonce
What are your dreams?
For my foundation to reach out and help lots of people. To see my business empire grow and also, to be featured in Forbes Magazine as one of the most influential women in Africa.

Williams' paintings engage with the visual language of American and European abstraction, while also drawing upon Guyanese cultural history. His use of tribal glyph marks relates to the calligraphic motifs of other abstract artists. However, he first encountered these signs in the 1940s when he was working as an agricultural field officer in Guyana and spent time with the Warrau tribe. He described the glyph as 'a strange, very tense, slightly violent shape coming in somewhere. It has haunted me all my life and I don't understand it; a subsconscious thing coming out'.

Most people are motivated to work out to improve some aspect of their lives. Some do it because they want to feel healthier. Others do it because they want to look better. Then you have those who do it because they want to enhance their speed, endurance or strength. Regardless of the underlying motives for fitness training, results can be maximized when exercise is combined with a healthy diet.
There is no doubt that fitness training can improve your overall health, but optimum results may be elusive when eating habits aren't on point. When people find themselves hitting plateaus or having difficulties getting rid of body fat, it can often be traced back to what they eat.
The body can't convert such junky foods as chips, cookies, french fries, pork rinds and cakes into healthy organ cells, bone or muscle mass. Instead, these foods get stored in the body as fat. Obviously, this is not a good thing for someone who wants to reap the benefits of fitness training.
The body relies on the food a person eats to give them the energy they need to get through the day. If the food is less than nutritious, it makes getting through a fitness training session tough.
According to the Harvard School of Public Health, nutritious eating combined with exercise can:

Just over an hour from Downtown Chicago and 15 minutes from Lake Michigan sits the Briar Leaf Golf Club. This La Porte, Indiana course is one of Michiana's gems. From course condition to greens fee rates to amenities, Briar Leaf is very hard to beat.
Head Pro Jay Williams says "This land used to be a farm. It's got a mix of gently rolling terrain, some flat land, and outlined with trees. We've added over 200 trees to the course." With the extra trees, water on 9 holes, and other obstacles, Williams adds "This is a thinking-man's course."
Early in your round, the thinking definitely begins. Hole # 3 is a relatively short Par-4 that ends at a small island green ... appropriately named "Alcatraz." To escape # 3 with a birdie, you better put your drive where your approach shot will have very comfortable yardage, or you could easily walk off with a 7 or worse!
Briar Leaf is a fair test with water and bunkers in locations that quality shots can avoid. But it doesn't end there. While many of the holes require accurate, almost target-type shots to score well, several holes also allow you to "open it up." So, bring all your clubs, you'll need them!
Briar Leaf has 4 sets of Tees:
Green5,057 yards
Gold5,955 yards
Silver6,375 yards
Black6,765 yards
There is a formal Grounds Maintenance Program, and it shows. Briar Leaf is in excellent condition all season long. Over the past several years, all equipment has been upgraded and bunkers revamped.
The Briar Leaf Amenities list is a long one: Lockers / Showers, Golf Carts, Club Rental, Club Cleaning, Practice Putting & Chipping Greens, two Driving Ranges -- with one being HEATED so players can practice year 'round, Pro Shop & Retail Shop, and On-Course Drinks / Snacks / Restrooms. Affordable golf lessons are also available from three Instructors.
Speaking of amenities, Williams has had the pleasure of playing the course at St. Andrews on 3 occasions which served as the inspiration for the newly completed St. Andrews Clubroom. Truly a unique amenity that Course Members will certainly enjoy.
Another unique feature of Briar Leaf is that it doesn't house the usual "19th Hole" Pub. Instead, Portofino's Grill, attached to the Clubhouse, is an upscale restaurant featuring great food and service along with both casual and fine dining options. Call the Pro Shop or Portofino's for more details.
Briar Leaf Golf Club is a true golfing experience.
As one can imagine, Briar Leaf is an excellent location to host your next Outing or Fundraiser. Speak to Williams or his Staff about your plans and thoughts.
The Briar Leaf Golf Club is also a MichianaGolf.com "Offers for Golfers" participant ... do you have your Pass yet?
To learn more, visit the Briar Leaf Golf Club page.

Prime Minister's Economic Affairs Adviser Mashiur Rahman has returned to work, although one of the World Bank conditions for the revival of Padma bridge loan was to keep him on leave during the probe into graft allegations in the mega project.
He joined his workplace at the Prime Minister's Office yesterday afternoon as his one-month leave ended on Wednesday, said his Personal Secretary Tapan Kumar Chakrabarty in the evening.
Relying to a query, Tapan said he knew nothing about the adviser's leave extension.
This correspondent could not reach Mashiur despite repeated attempts.
The adviser had been dropped from several committees, including cabinet committees on economic affairs and purchases, and he would be kept out of these bodies even after his joining, a cabinet division official earlier had said.
Meanwhile, the Anti-Corruption Commission on Monday asked Mashiur to appear before it on November 6 to face questioning in connection with the graft allegations.
An external panel of the World Bank earlier had visited Dhaka to monitor the ACC enquiries into the alleged corruption in the project.
In June, the WB cancelled its $1.2 billion loan deal citing "corruption conspiracy" in the project. It said the government has to meet three conditions, including sending Mashiur on leave, for revival of the agreement.
The global lender, however, in September decided to revive its loan, saying all its conditions were met.

Seems to me PM's this stand does not care about What WB is saying, what shushil samaj are saying or other global or domestic experts are believing the consequence would be about starting of our Padma bridge project. If PM does not care about to uphold country's great interest rather depends on too much on an unelected advisor she should be resigned from the post or should be wait for the dire verdict from the voters in oncoming general election!

Thanks for this patriotic news report. The very purpose of this very important news report is to reflect the earnest outcry of the entire nation to get the much needed World Bank loan for Padma Bridge. The helpless common people are watching with deep frustrations of the Govt.'s mysterious role with this shameless Mashiur. Now it is clear even to a school kid that all-powerful Mashiur infect was working as a reliable agent of some powerful vested group behind the screen. Mashiur has put the last nail on the coffin on any prospect of this govt. in next general election. Alas, the senseless govt. failed to realise this simple reality.

If not, why are there so many question on here about how to increase traffic to your website?
Can't you just post your web address all over the web (in related places of course)?
Or is that also against the infamous Adsense TOS?

In either case, i have a signature with my site details. Occasionly I change the URLs a little to point to different pages.
In these cases there are no problems, but I do see enough spam with URLs in, that are totally off-topic & get removed.
In addition, publishers may not bring unnatural attention to sites displaying ads through unsolicited mass emails or unwanted advertisements on third-party websites. These activities are strictly prohibited in order to avoid potential inflation of advertiser costs.
Besides that, it's going to be pretty much against every reputable forum's TOS. A signature is usually acceptable, but self promotion is often considered spam.

2012 Tour de France General-Classification Contenders
2012 Tour Contenders: Vincenzo Nibali (Liquigas-Cannondale)
5 / 9
The 27-year-old Italian last rode the Tour de France in 2009 and finished seventh overall. He has since won the Tour of Spain and stood on the final podium at the Tour of Italy twice. This year he has shifted his focus to France. Known for his climbing—and descending—Nibali will lose time to Wiggins and Evans in the Tour's long time trials, but will benefit from the experienced and talented Ivan Basso riding as his lieutenant in the mountains.

Background: It is well known that loss of muscle mass (quantitative change) is a major change that occurs with aging. Qualitative changes in skeletal muscle, such as increased intramuscular fat, also occur as one ages. Enhanced echo intensity (EI) on ultrasonography images of skeletal muscle is believed to reflect muscle quality. Recent studies evaluating the quality of skeletal muscle using computer-aided gray scale analysis showed that EI is associated with muscle strength independently of age or muscle size in middle-aged and elderly women. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether muscle quality based on EI is associated with muscle strength independently of muscle size for elderly men.
Methods: A total of 184 elderly men (65–91 years) living independently in Kyoto, Japan, participated in this study. The EI, muscle thickness (MT), and subcutaneous fat thickness (FT) of the anterior compartment of the right thigh were determined by assessing ultrasonography images. The maximum isometric torque of knee extension at a knee angle of 90° was measured.
Results: The EI showed a significant negative correlation with muscle strength (r = -0.333, P < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that the MT and EI of the knee extensor muscle were independently associated with maximum isometric knee extension strength. Even when partial correlation analysis was performed with age, height, weight, and FT as control variables, EI was still significantly correlated with muscle strength.
Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that aging-related changes in muscle quality contribute to diminishing muscle strength. Ultrasonography is a low-cost, easily accessible, and safe method suitable for the assessment of EI as an index of muscle quality.

This is all very amusing, but underneath the humor lurks a serious problem. A large number of the most privileged men and women in our society are setting only juvenile goals. When they could be concentrating on how to make better places to live, engaging their minds in conversations of significance, they're frittering away their time in search of regressive escapes. For all their self-absorbed faults and indulgences, the boomers had passions and politics with a point.
But it's difficult to engage rejuveniles, whose attention spans are as short as the cartoons they fancy. Their obsessive "cultivation of immaturity," says Frank Furendi, a professor of sociology at the University of Kent at Canterbury in England, who began studying collective infantilism after he observed college students watching Teletubbies, is an extreme response to growing up in a culture saturated by media.
While the phenomenon suggests a fear of growing up, it reflects as well another facet of the dumbing down of the culture, an aversion to mature conduct and useful contemplation. When MTV interviewed Bill Clinton in his first campaign for president in 1992, a college student asked him whether he wore boxers or briefs. The question was not only dumb, but demeaning. Instead of putting the student in his place (a playpen?), the candidate answered it.
When Vice President Al Gore played himself, sitting in a hot tub in a "Saturday Night Live" skit, he thought he was being hip and witty, not understanding that he was merely degrading his office and mocking a lack of propriety.
Book publishers, television producers, moviemakers and other mavens of the media lust for the latest "edgy" notion to push the envelope. Such notions needn't be substantive as long as they turn on sensation to drive controversy.

Specially customized for the E-PL3, the new lightweight PT-EP05L underwater case is waterproof up to a pressure equivalent to a depth of 45m. It launches with a powerful new feature: The "Target Light", which is built in to the lens port and produces spotlighting that is targeted directly at close-up subjects - making it the new best friend for underwater Macro photographers venturing down to the dark depths. Yet another bright idea in the new PT-EP05L is the bundled diffuser, which works to soften the light of the camera flash (FL-LM1). This in turn makes the whole underwater system more affordable - even for beginners - as it keeps the need for any extra equipment to a minimum, while nonetheless being compatible with existing accessories.

Cardbirds I - VII, 1971
Robert RauschenbergAmerican, 1925-2008
Set of seven collaged and screen-printed cardboard wall reliefs, Edition of 75, No. 26
Norton Simon Museum, Anonymous Gift
Art © Robert Rauschenberg Foundation/Licensed by VAGA, New York, NY
Not on view
From the outset of his career, Robert Rauschenberg displayed a remarkably free and unconventional approach to techniques and materials. Beginning in the 1950s, Rauschenberg incorporated discarded objects from everyday life into his paintings, referring to these works as "Combine Paintings." These assemblages evolved from the artist's desire to "operate in the gap between art and life."
The Cardbirds are wall reliefs that evolved from this concern. Each of the works in this series is a carefully printed wall relief that replicates a discarded and disassembled cardboard box. Although they appear to be indistinguishable from the original object, everything on the boxes has been reproduced, from the shipping tape to the tiniest rip and tear. The artist even collaged authentic stamps, bills and sealing tape onto the screen prints to complete the edition.

Clear Choice Grooming Spray ends tangled and matted hair while conditioning fur.
August 6, 2010 8:04 pm | By Zootoo Editor Flinn D.
Perfect Coat's Clear Choice Detangling and Grooming Spray is a simple yet effective product that you can use on your dog whenever his coat gets matted. You can also use it to prevent future tangling. Made from water and Aloe Vera gel, the spray is formulated to smooth and coat individual strands of your dog's hair and make them easier to comb through.
Once you have dampened the hair, use your usual comb or brush to work out the mats and clumps until your dog's coat returns its lustrous and fresh condition. The spray can be used on either wet or dry coats — making it the ideal spray to use on your pet when he comes back from a walk on a hot day, or after a bath.
The spray works just as well on dogs with short hair as it does on dogs with long hair as I found out when I used it on my French bulldog. I was nervous that the formula might be too harsh for his scalp, but I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered the effect the formula had on him – basically, the product allowed the hairs that he was ready to shed to be lifted out easily with a grooming glove.
As with any formulated spray, make sure that you aim away from their eyes and monitor the amount of formula you are using on their fur – you don't want to excessively dampen or the product can cause irritation.
Pros: Controls shedding; makes grooming a snap.
Cons: As with all sprays, overuse can cause irritation.

Good On Matted Fur
posted 5 years ago
My chow gets tangles & mats just from turning around in a room so he requires lots of grooming. I use this to help work out the tangles & mats he always ends up with. I liberally spray it on the mats & work it in then comb them right out after a couple of minutes. It really makes a difference. I also use it as an overall conditioner when I'm brushing out his coat. It makes his coat much easier to brush out & its soft & shiny afterwards.
Pros: nice smell, works on mats & tangles
Cons: none

Helps Keep my Dog looking Clean in between baths
posted 7 years ago
I've been using this every time I brush Princess. She loves to run around in the woods and her long fur is always picking things up. This helps me keep her looking groomed in between baths. I like the fresh, clean smell I just wish it wasn't so strong when you first spray it. I don't like using something that smells so strong on my dog. After awhile, the scent wears off a bit and she just smells nice and clean.
Pros: Helps get out tangles, clean smell, makes her coat look shiny
Cons: The scent is a little strong when you first spray it.

Third round of British Open to feature first-ever two-tee start
British Open: Leaderboard | Photos | Odds & picks | Videos & GIFs | Stories | Tiger
On Saturday the British Open will make history with a two-tee start time for the first time ever, according to the R&A (and Bob Harig) and will be moved up to 9 a.m. local time.
According to R&A, Saturday will be first-ever two-tee start in Open history.— Bob Harig (@BobHarig) July 18, 2014
Some people are not fans of this:
Two-tee smart probably smart, but hate it. Open really is modernized now. Shame.— Doug Ferguson (@dougferguson405) July 18, 2014
There will also be groups of three going off instead of pairings like normal. The reason? The weather is supposed to be insanely bad.
Like, "wind and hail" bad.
Two-tee start at @The_Open tomorrow due to severe weather around @RLGCHoylake heavy rain, thunder, maybe even hail! Should be interesting..— Paul Higham (@SportsPaulH) July 18, 2014
Here's a look according to Weather Channel:
I'm not a fan of any of this because bad weather is such a big part of how this tournament plays out but I get it -- nobody wants to get caught up in a hail storm.
I also think this benefits Rory McIlroy -- I don't think he has as much a chance of posting an insanely high number without awful weather.
Though it also means everybody behind him will have a decent shot at posting a lower number. Whatever happens, it should be fun.

Friedhelm Blobel
Thank you, Sean. Good morning and thank you for joining us today on our Fourth Quarter and Year End 2007 Conference Call. Today we have included slides in our conference call. It can be accessed through the IR section of our website at www.SciClone.com. Before I begin, I would like to briefly remind you that we'll be making forward-looking statements during this call. These statements are subject to risk factors which include but are not limited to those detailed in our SEC filings.
Looking back at 2007 we achieved many significant milestones as we continue to execute our strategy, focused on growing our two main assets. The first is our late stage biotech business targeting the US and Europe pharmaceutical markets. The second is our valuable revenue and cash generator, SciClone China. We are executing our strategy with a goal of developing late stage products for viral infectious diseases and head for the US and European pharmaceutical markets and building SciClone China's infrastructure and capabilities to capture the opportunities in this rapidly growing pharmaceutical market. Looking forward we are gaining important momentum as we enter 2008, a year in which we expect to generate essential cash flow from SciClone China, report data from both our large Phase 3 and to prove of concept Phase 2 clinical trials for HDV.
I would like to take a minute to review the most important recent highlights for SciClone. Starting with our top line performance our strong revenue growth continues to generate valuable cash flow to fund the late stage development of all products for the US and European pharmaceutical markets. We increased revenue with 18% for the fourth quarter and 14% for the full year 2007 on strong demand for our lead product Zadaxin. Over 90% of our Zadaxin sales are to China where we continue to expand and leverage SciClone China's capabilities in this rapidly growing pharmaceutical market. Second, we are making great strides in the clinical development of our pipeline products. We recently reported promising interim blinded data from the nearly completed Phase 3 triple therapy hepatitis C trial for thymalfasin and look forward to un-blinding final results in the third quarter of this year.
Third, we began a Phase 2 pancreatic cancer clinical trial for RP101, a nucleoside analog which may act to enhance the therapeutic effect of chemotherapy. We also receive all from drug designation for RP101 from the US FDA. And finally we continue our outreach with investors and analysts by presenting our corporate strategy in New York at the BIO CEO and Investor Conference in February and the Susquehanna International Group Healthcare Conference in March. I will give more detail regarding each of these achievements later in the call but first I'd like to turn the call over to Rick Waldron, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer for a review of our fourth quarter and full year 2007 financials. Rick?
Richard Waldron
Thank you, Friedhelm. We are pleased with our solid financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2007 and look forward to strong revenue growth for 2008. Our consolidated results for the fourth quarter of 2007 which you can see on Slide #5 if you're viewing the slide pack on the website; we're driven by an 18% increase in revenues to $10 million. For the full year revenues grew 14% to $37 million which exceeded our previous guidance of 35 to $36 million. This growth was fueled by strong demand for Zadaxin in China, a growing pharmaceutical market which accounts for over 90% of our Zadaxin sales.
As we continue to invest in the development of our late stage products, our net loss for the fourth quarter 2007 was $3.6 million, or $0.08 per share, compared to $1.5 million or $0.03 per share for the prior year.
For the full year 2007, net loss was $9.9 million, or $0.22 per share, which is less then our previous guidance of $13 million, or $0.28 per share.
For 2006 net income was $727,000, or $0.02 per share, which included an $8 million settlement received in April of 2006.
Our cash position totaled $35.3 million at December 31, 2007 compared with $37.5 million at September 30. This figure is considerably higher then our guidance of $26 million for the year end. Primarily due to lower then planned fourth quarter R&D expenses resulting from our decision to review interim data from the HCV clinical trial before proceeding with extensive clinical trial development work for thymalfasin for the malignant melanoma indication.
The year end cash position was also augmented by strong accounts receivable collection from China in the fourth quarter.
I would like to note that both R&D expenses and net loss for 2007 were lower due to the January 2008 initiation of the RP101 trial and review of the thymalfasin program, which prompted us to review the Phase 3 results.
