The Best Message?
Jim Burroway
July 19th, 2006
Yesterday was the one year anniversary of the hanging of two Iranian youths, Mahmoud Asgari and Ayaz Marhoni, who were accused of having a gay affair. They were seventeen years old when they were murdered by the Iranian authorities. Several vigils and protests marked the occasion in cities around the world.
[Update: San Francisco activist Michael Petrelis, who, more than anyone, organized the vigils worldwide has a complete roundup of those vigils. And the Washington Post today has an excellent article on the mainstream media's silence about Mahmound and Ayaz.]
The picture for gays is very bleak in the Middle East. In addition to ongoing active persecution in Iran, the situation is deteriorating rapidly in Iraq. According to the United Nations:
16. UNAMI HRO has received several reports indicating that, since 2005, homosexuals have been increasingly threatened and extra-judicially executed by militias and "death squads" because of their sexual orientation. It is believed that such incidents are underreported, because families are unwilling to admit that targeted members were homosexual for fear of further abuse. It has been difficult to independently verify the information received due to the fact that members of this group maintain a low profile, preferring instead to go into hiding or leave the country.
17. From October 2005 to 30 June 2006 at least twelve homosexuals were reportedly killed in targeted attacks. Militias are reportedly threatening families of men believed to be homosexual, stating that they will begin killing family members unless the men are handed over or killed by the family. In March 2006, a 29-year-old man was kidnapped in Baghdad and his family threatened for allowing him to lead a homosexual lifestyle. The family paid a ransom for the man's release but the mutilated body of the kidnapped victim was instead found dead a few days later. In another case reported a homosexual man was allegedly victim of "honour crime." It was reported in the press that the man's father was released without trial once he explained that he had hanged his son after discovering that he was homosexual.
An editorial in The Advocate also notes pervasive persecution inside the Palestinian Authority:
Tarek, a young Palestinian gay man suspected of homosexuality, was sentenced to a "reeducation" camp run by Muslim clerics under Palestinian Authority jurisdiction. He said that for a period of two months he was "subjected to beatings with belts, clubs, and was forced to sit on bottles which were inserted into my rectum. I was hanged by the hands, I was deprived of sleep, and when I finally did sleep, my limbs were tied to the floor."
Meanwhile, just one day earlier the House of Representatives turned back an attempt to amend the constitution to ban same-sex marriage. But supporters of the amendment were not daunted, nor were they apologetic over the fact that while Beirut burns, the House fiddles. After the vote, House floor leader Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-Ga.) commented:
This is probably the best message we can give to the Middle East in regards to the trouble we are having over there right now.
Message received. Unfortunately.

text: Home Politics Abigail Fisher and the Me Generation Her affirmative action case is one example, but millennials' sense of entitlement transcends race. By: Michael Arceneaux Posted: Oct. 21 2012 12:12 AM 0 Mark Wilson/Getty Images (The Root) -- Abigail Fisher is a puppet, nothing more than the latest Pinocchio to Edward Blum's Geppetto. She may be the vessel, but it is Blum who is the driving force of Fisher v. University of Texas -- the current Supreme Court case that may lend the fatal blow to affirmative action for which staunch conservatives have longed. He recruited her through his legal defense fund group, Project on Fair Representation, which he's used to fight race-focused legislation for two decades now. The legal fees are reportedly paid through support of DonorsTrust, a group that has directed millions of dollars to the Koch brothers' Americans for Prosperity Foundation. Together they're dressing up her bitterness at being rejected from her first-choice college as the need to stop "discrimination" in college admissions. That's a cute little tale, but in actuality all of this boils down to someone operating under the unfortunate assumption that just because you work for something, it is owed to you. Working hard toward a goal doesn't automatically mean you deserve to achieve it. Nonetheless, while we wait to see how the Supreme Court does rule, there's growing evidence that the court can't really do away with affirmative action altogether. Maybe so, but that won't stop the Abigail Fishers of the world from going above and beyond to essentially enact revenge on others over feelings that they were wronged. I'm not convinced that future incarnations of Fisher will have solely white faces, either. I initially thought to chalk up Fisher's sense of entitlement as "mighty white," though I've increasingly seen this perspective among people in their 20s -- my age group -- regardless of their hue. Yes, white privilege undoubtedly plays out throughout Fisher's case, and I'm irritated by her lawsuit's implication that students at UT who look more like me are less deserving of admission than those that look like her (though they are apparently smarter and more well-rounded than she was). However, the more I thought about it, the more familiar her "me, me, me" outlook on life appeared. It could be something as simple as your cousin thinking he deserves to be famous just because he has more than seven followers on Twitter and figured out how to upload a YouTube clip. Ditto for the opinion of a random blogger who thinks belaboring your opinions is synonymous with holding informed ones. Or someone as famous as Chris Brown feeling entitled to the world's forgiveness because he figures enough time has passed since his assault on Rihanna. Each is fueled by a desire for fame, success or acceptance and bolstered by the belief that simply because they want it, they deserve it. Jean Twenge, professor of psychology at San Diego State University, revealed findings from a study she conducted of 16,000 university students across the United States in 2006 that showed 30 percent were narcissistic in psychological tests, compared with 15 percent in 1982. Twenge said, in a 2011 speech, of this statistic, ''They are all 18- and 19-year-olds, so this is clearly a generational shift." The trend was attributed to "permissive parenting, celebrity culture and the Internet." The result? Narcissists with an "inflated sense of self, [who] lacked empathy, were vain and materialistic and had an overblown sense of entitlement." Other studies (pdf) have found that "millennials are more likely to value money, image and fame over community, affiliation and self-acceptance." Perhaps Fisher was emboldened by people -- her parents, fellow self-involved peers surrounding her -- to think that her outlook is all that matters. No attempts to see other people's perspectives, including that of the admissions officers at the University of Texas at Austin, who said regardless of her race she wouldn't have gotten in. All that mattered to her was, "I wanted this, I didn't get it, now others must pay." Her vanity is disgusting, but it's becoming a pastime within my age group. Anyone who carries that entitled attitude with them through life is already losing -- regardless of whether or not a few Supreme Court justices agree with you. On the meaning of her study, Twenge noted in 2011 that she was concerned about a growing culture ''that seems to not just accept narcissism but finds it laudatory." The college students she spoke to weren't surprised about her findings, telling her, "We have to be this way because the world is more competitive." Twenge countered that the problem with such a pro-narcissism stance is that it "doesn't help you compete" and "blows up in your face eventually.'' One hopes so, anyway.

Peter Pears (tenor), Benjamin Britten (pno)
BBC Legends Music
Catalogue Number:
BBCB 8006-2 ADD mono
'Britten the performer' should really be 'Britten the pianist', whom Gerald Moore rated above all song accompanists. These live recordings (1958) over-favoured the voice and were far from ideally balanced; the remastered applause is disagreeably harsh, and the piano distant and under-nourished. Nevertheless, Britten's sensitive touch and range of colour are everywhere apparent. Pears's word-centred approach best suits the English songs and Schumann; he was on top form, with a few harsh moments, easily forgiven, and wonderful control. I cannot previously recall hearing them in Fauré, but once adjusted to Pears's idiosyncratic French, I found this marvellous cycle exciting and moving.

Topaz St Underground Car Park is a car park under Topaz St, in Lancaster.
The car park lays between Bismarck Ave and Columbus Ave, closer to Bismarck. There are two enterances, one on Topaz and the other in Silicon St. The car park seems pretty basic, with spaces for cars, speed bumps, grey pillars and some vending machines. 5 Sprunk machines and 2 prop snack machines. The car park is regulary empty, with three or four cars in it. The signs, above ground, says it's free and open 24 hours.
The car park has some importance in GTA IV and greater importance in The Ballad Of Gay Tony. In GTA IV, it's where you pick up Jeff's Blista Compact, with his deceased wife in it, and dump it the river. In TBOGT, the mission Going Deep is set here. You have to kill crooked LCPD and NOOSE officers, after been lured here in the hope of planting evidence against Bulgarin in his car.
- Strangely, the headlamps don't work in the car park, despite that they can be turned on before you enter.

- Mobility in the public rental market
- Author(s)
- Wulff, Maryann; Newton, Peter W.
- Abstract
- Why do people move house? Are some households more likely to move than others? Where do they ultimately reside? The dynamic process of residential mobility has been much studied by social scientists. Research has focussed, however, on households moving within the private sector tenures of owner occupancy and rental---accounting for some 95 per cent of all households in Australia---and has paid little attention to public renters. One reason for this oversight is that low income public tenants are perceived as a relatively immobile group and therefore not useful to study (Paris and Lambert 1979). Another, more important reason, is that the traditional paradigms used to explain residential mobility imply choice, and 'housing choice is a concept that has seldom been applied to the study of the allocation of public housing' (Kintrea and Clapham 1986, p. 1281). The processes involved in moving into, and within the public housing sector are quite unlike those operating in the private housing market. Public sector mobility is determined by housing authority managers through administrative decisions concerning the allocaton of new tenancies and transfers of households within the public rental stock. These practices in turn reflect the objectives of public housing---as these objectives have changed over time, the nature of mobility within the sector has altered. [Introduction]

King in the North
this wiki
- "There sits the only king I mean to bend my knee to: the King in the North!"
- ―Lord Greatjon Umber, indicating King Robb Stark
King in the North was the title given to the ruler of the North during its time as an independent kingdom, before the coming of the Targaryens. A colloquial title also used for the rulers of the North was the "Kings of Winter". House Stark ruled as Kings in the North for thousands of years.
History of the title
The ancient Kings of Winter
House Stark ruled as Kings in the North stretching back into the mists of time, before written history began six thousand years ago, when the Andals invaded all of southern Westeros. When the Andals arrived, the Stark Kings in the North were already ruling at Winterfell. According to legend, the first King in the North was Brandon Stark, better known as Bran the Builder, who lived eight thousand years ago. According to the legends, he led the forces of the North in the War for the Dawn against the White Walkers and built the Wall to guard against their return, and also began construction of Winterfell. The Kings in the North were successfully able to fend off the Andals from invading, holding the line of the Neck at the choke point of Moat Cailin. As a result, the North remained the only independent kingdom of the First Men, with little or no ethnic imprint by the Andals. This also meant that the Faith of the Seven practiced by the Andals gained little foothold in the North, where the Kings of Winter continued their worship of the Old Gods of the Forest.
The Targaryen Conquest
During the War of Conquest, by the time King Torrhen Stark gathered his armies to challenge the invaders, Aegon the Conqueror had already won the decisive Field of Fire and conquered most of southern Westeros. Seeing that the war was already lost and that the Northern armies had no hope of driving back Aegon's armies or his dragons, Torrhen wisely chose to spare his people by bending the knee. In return for Torrhen's submission, Aegon allowed House Stark to continue ruling the North as they had for thousands of years, but as vassals of the Iron Throne. They held the titles of Lord Paramount of the North, Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North. Three centuries later, House Stark fought on the side of Robert Baratheon during Robert's Rebellion, in which the Targaryen dynasty was deposed and Robert crowned as the new king. After the war, House Stark continued to faithfully serve the crown, as King Robert of House Baratheon was one of their closest allies.
The new King in the North
During the opening stages of the War of the Five Kings, Lord Robb Stark was proclaimed as the new King in the North by his bannermen, the first in 300 years. Outraged by the imprisonment and then wanton execution of Robb's father Eddard Stark by Robert's successor Joffrey Baratheon, the noble lords of the North openly rebelled against the Iron Throne. Joffrey had brashly intended to shock the North into submission by executing Ned Stark, but instead this drove the Northern lords to deciding that they would never submit to Joffrey, no matter the odds against them. At a council of Robb's bannermen, some were undecided about whether they should support the rival claims to the throne by Robert's younger brothers, Stannis Baratheon or even Renly Baratheon.
Greatjon Umber, who was tired of being ruled by southron lords thousands of miles away, then pointed out that it was the Dragon-Kings of House Targaryen that the North had submitted to, but now they were dead. Robert Baratheon had been their ally, but now he was dead, and his younger brothers meant nothing to him (and as was soon after revealed, Joffrey wasn't even Robert's actual son but a bastard with no claim to being a Baratheon). Lord Umber declared that there was only one king he would ever serve, the King in the North. Rickard Karstark, Maege Mormont, Galbart Glover and Jonos Bracken, a local river lord, were among those who swore fealty to Robb, as did Theon Greyjoy. The call was then taken up by all of Robb's bannermen, chanting "the King in the North!".[1] Soon after being declared King in the North by acclamation of his bannermen, King Robb sent a formal declaration of independence to Queen Regent Cersei Lannister, proclaiming that "from this time until the end of time we are a free and independent kingdom".[2]
Robb was declared King by not just the northern lords, but also several of the lords of the Riverlands, as the Starks had come to relieve the Riverlands from an invasion by the Lannisters. Also, Robb's mother is Catelyn Tully, daughter of Hoster Tully the lord of Riverrun, and thus Robb is by rights a blood relation of House Tully, the Lords Paramount of the Riverlands. Therefore, King Robb's claimed kingdom includes both the North and the Riverlands. In practice, however, during the course of the War of the Five Kings Robb's forces only maintain firm control of the Riverlands north of the Trident River, particularly around the regional capital of Riverrun. All of the Riverlands south of this, between the Red Fork of the Trident and Gods Eye lake, are a warzone between Lannister and Stark forces.
Known Kings in the North
- King {Brandon}, called "Bran the Builder", credited for the construction of the Wall and Winterfell, the founder of House Stark.
- King {Rodrik}, who granted Bear Island to House Mormont.
- King {Torrhen}, called "the King Who Knelt", the last of the independent Kings in the North and the first Warden of the North.
War of the Five Kings
- King {Robb}, called "the Young Wolf", the first of the new Kings in the North. Betrayed by House Frey in the Red Wedding and murdered by Roose Bolton.
Line of succession
- Prince Bran Stark (believed to be deceased)
- Prince Rickon Stark (believed to be deceased)
- Princess Sansa Stark (hostage of the Iron Throne, forced against her will to marry Tyrion Lannister)
- Princess Arya Stark (missing, believed to be deceased)
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, "King in the North" is the ancient title held for thousands of years by House Stark prior to the coming of Aegon the Conqueror; they were also called "Kings of Winter".
According to myth, the first King in the North was Bran the Builder, the great lord who built Winterfell and the Wall and founded the Night's Watch, following the defeat of the White Walkers in the War for the Dawn. The King in the North held all the lands of the North south to the Neck, where the ancient fortress of Moat Cailin threw back every attempt by the southron kingdoms and, later, the Andals to invade.
Before Robb, the last King in the North was Torrhen Stark. During the invasion of Aegon the Conqueror, Torrhen led a great host to the banks of the Red Fork of the River Trident, meaning to give battle, but after hearing tales of the Field of Fire and upon seeing the size of Aegon's host and the presence of his dragons, Torrhen realized his cause was hopeless. Instead, he knelt and swore fealty to Aegon. Aegon acknowledged him and House Stark as the rulers of the North in the name of the Iron Throne.
Many kings are mentioned in the final chapter of A Clash of Kings: Edwyn the Spring King, Brandon the Burner, Brandon the Shipwright, Benjen the Bitter, Benjen the Sweet and King Theon Stark, among others.
They had a crown that was lost to Aegon the Conqueror. In A Clash of Kings, Robb Stark has a new one made, matching the old one to a very precise description: an open circlet of bronze with no gemstones, topped by a row of nine black iron spikes shaped like longswords.

Reminds me of the old Apple II...pretty cool.
Software: MS Paint, MSDOS Edit
Description: I've yet to see a really effective star system map in this forum. There may be one on here somewhere, but I've not seen it. So, I decided to give it a shot. I have a great affection for the retro-future technology found in movies like Aliens where the wonderful old green phosphor screens are the state of the art. So, since I'm not much of an artist and I only have MS Paint to work with at the moment, I decided to do a retro-future style star system map.
Maps encourage boldness. They're like cryptic love letters. They make anything seem possible.
-Mark Jenkins
Reminds me of the old Apple II...pretty cool.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

Omg i have read all of the Twilight bookz and seen every movie but i just cannot seem to find out if it where in Eclipse the movie or the book when Bella goes to La Push and Jacob and some of his friends are outside.. And they start teasing him about him alwayz having here on his mind about calling.. They said "Oh finale now Jake can stop torturing himself, I wish Bella would call, I wish Bella wouldn't call, Maybe I should call Bella, Maybe I shouldn't call Bella, Maybe I should call Bella and hang up" I think those where the words used and i just cant remember, but it was so funny. I dnt think it was in New Moon bc they were not madd at each other, well except when he could tell Bella about him being a werewolf.. or was it in New Moon the movie.. could use the help thanxz

Hey, thanks for uploading all of those images. Can you please make sure to add image categories too? Thanks, and keel up the good work! --TheLunarEclipse

You seem to be uploading many screenshots from the films in particular, so try checking Twilight movie screenshots, New Moon movie screenshots, and Eclipse movie screenshots before uploading, since we already have many of the images that you have been adding.

Hi, how ur you :)
Volturifan199 15:54, July 6, 2010 (UTC)Volturifan199
I'm fine thanks:D
Did you watch the eclipse movie?:D
The fight scene and Jasper and Alice training:)
and your fave scene?
Well, I believe she just explains that she will probably never imprint on anyone. Although, most people wish one had imprinted on the other.
I can't remember. I think he kind of pitied her and saw her in a new light. I honestly think they should have been together instead of him and the little monster. Or him and Lizzie. It says Leah was happier after Breaking Dawn, but I still think she could have been better with Jake.
Category additions
I undid your category additions. Sorry, but they aren't really based in fact, just opinion. I noticed that you did this on other characters and others have removed them as well. Just letting you know. LuckyTimothy 02:28, July 9, 2010 (UTC)
- Okay, had to remove your category additions again. I know you have no malice with your additions, but can't just add whatever categories you want. The ones you added don't even exist. The admins would remove them if I hadn't already done it. LuckyTimothy 16:51, July 12, 2010 (UTC)

I JUST MADE THE 6,000th EDIT ON WIKIA!!
Hello, you asked me if i knew about templates? yes i do, what are you needing?
and to the cookie thing, it was a game we were palying on the IRC, it was just a stupid game XD
Templates are what you add to a page to make it better...sorta, like the "ten top reasons" pages, they have templates creating the numbers, and the info box is one too! ^^ and yeah it was funny, and IRC is Internet RElay Chat, you can talk to people through it but faster than these talk pages ^^ yuo can also find me there at night and noon sometimes if you need to ask me something =D though it would depend on the time difference...
it is 9:almost 30 PM ^^
Oklahoma! you?
LOL, no XD
um...maybe XD what is it you're wanting?
I just wanted to say hi:D
Volturifan199 20:33, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
I'm fine thanks(:
And yes i'm a team Jacob fan:D
I know that Edward and Bella are made for each other..
but i like Jacob more(;
Volturifan199 22:08, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
Yea he is
Hot a good friend(;
and I hate when Bella makes him suffer:(
(I'm mad now LOL)
Volturifan199 22:27, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
I'm fine. How are you today.
I like Jacob best by far......he;s hawt <3. I feel bad for Bree :/.
So your a big fan??? What got you so interested.
Like the "Edit Awards?" Yeah, I do. Do you need them added to your page? LuckyTimothy 04:14, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, sure. So that's edit awards 50, 100, 250, and 500, right? LuckyTimothy 04:21, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
- There you go. :) LuckyTimothy 04:27, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

User page
Do you mean the Team Switzerland thing? That's at Template:Team. ;) fingernails 05:30, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
- I added it for you. It's called a template. We use them a lot on the wiki. And you know more about the wiki than most of the new people on here :P fingernails 06:07, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
- lol. If you ever want to learn what those things are, go here. XD fingernails 06:19, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
sure and hi how are you really Happy Late Birthday
oh! ^v^ once you've uploaded it you just put the exact file name into the image part when you edit the template
what you type for the picture to apear is: [[File:WhateverTheNameIsjpg|250px]] but not the WhateverTheNameIs part.
if you need anymore help just ask ^v^

CullenLoverForever17 18:12, July 17, 2010 (UTC)
Sign thing..
What exactly do you mean by the sign thing??
Of course not. What's up?Puddinginthesky 02:30, July 18, 2010 (UTC)puddinginthesky
Re: Friend award
It's not for what you think it its. It's for getting somebody you know to sign up for the Wiki. I mean, I have no problem giving it to you, just thought I'd let you know what it's really for. Let me know. LuckyTimothy 05:42, July 18, 2010 (UTC)
- Well, there you go, it's up. LuckyTimothy 05:04, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
Re: Creating New Life Award
Yeah, you get it when you create at least two new pages. But ones that are useful and based in fact. So have you created any new pages? LuckyTimothy 04:07, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
- Articles, pages, I use those interchangeably. If you created a page -- not a blog -- that didn't previously exist twice, then you get the award. LuckyTimothy 04:15, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
- Pretty sure it means that they were deleted and no longer exist. LuckyTimothy 04:18, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
RE: hey... :)
Heh, I'll work on seeing them. Unfortunatly all the good renting places near by closed so getting movies is a hassle. Anywho, you want to know more about me eh? Well, I'm open to questions. :P
Halopediaman 04:54, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Central Minnesota, and it's midnight. I'm guessing that you live in the Florida region?
Halopediaman 05:07, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Nah, I don't mind. I'm fifteen. Also, the New York City area was my second guess.
Halopediaman 05:23, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Heh, I'll take your word for it at the moment. Anyway, do you use the IRC?
Halopediaman 05:29, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
By going off your page, I put you ate fourteen. But I don't know if you lied or not, and your name is an utter mystery. As far as my name, I haven't givin it out on the entire wikiverse, but I have hinted and given many clues. Anyway, I do go by Tom Porowski, which is a name associated with a joke. Anyway, what is your name, if you care to tell me? :P
Halopediaman 06:01, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, sort of. It's not really important. So, anymore questions for me then? I don't really want to fill up your talk page with my bumbling...
Halopediaman 05:29, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Eh, my page was empty and boring. Anyway, I am familiar with that AIM is, however I do not have it.
Halopediaman 05:35, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
I don't really have questions, since you gave answers with your own questions. So...yeah. Thats all I have to say about that.
Halopediaman 05:43, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Oh really? What are thos two things? :P
Halopediaman 05:53, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Yes I am a very big Twilight fan! Twilight helped me make a lot of friends at school just by talking about it. I am pretty sure I will love this website too! I used to have a twilight fanfiction on fanfiction.net called Alice's Breaking Dawn but I deleted it. I had all 50 pages (and it still isn't done) in a notebook and I lost the notebook. So sadly I had to take it down so I couldn't continue it. I still have the first 20 or 30 or so pages saved so maybe I could continue. Would you like to know the summary? :) Sam (Princess) Puckett 05:58, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
- ) Here is the summary!
When Rosalie discovers a power to temporaily turn Vampires Human she tests it on Alice. Its Alice and Jaspers anniversary and things happen. Will things be different with a new Cullen around?
So basically Alice turns human for a while. Jasper and Alice ya know do it (But it is not described at all in the book!) Alice ends up pregnant. She still has her vampire powers while human so she can see the gender and everything. She couldn't see Nessie but the baby is 3/4 vampire 1/4 human because Alice is orginially a vamp. the baby is a girl and the name her Malexandra (Mary and Alexandra combined) Jalice (Jasper and Alice combined) Hale Cullen. She grows faster then Nessie cause of her more vampireness. At first she has problems speaking and walking. Her nickname is Maxi. Oh! Her powers are She can see the past and she can block when Jasper is trying to control her moods.
How does that sound?
Like something you would read? :) Sam (Princess) Puckett 06:10, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Thank you!!! I would love to be a writer when I grow up but I also want to be a Neonatal Nurse (A nurse that helps newborns) I had 2 notebooks the main one was lost (I think at school cause all of my friends read it) and I have the copy but like 20 pages are not there cause I never finished copying them. I can try to rewrite it and I can send you the first chapter if you want! It summer so i may just finish the notebook!
Thank you again for saying Jalice fans would love it and big event twihards!
I don't really want to post it on fanfiction again cause I have three other stories I'm updating on there.
Do you want me to just send you the Chapters on yoour talk page? Other ppl can see them too.
Sam (Princess) Puckett 06:24, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Yea I'll put it up :) I dont know what time it is where you live but here its 11:30 so when its morning tommorow ill post it on your user page. is that okay?
Sam (Princess) Puckett 06:31, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Sam (Princess) Puckett 02:31, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

Who knows? oh yeah i do! haha i may update again in a few hours or tommorow.
It is currently 40 pages long and unfinished! Your only on page 4 haha.
I will continue! :D I think its gonna be like a 100 pages or even longer! i've always wanted to show it to stephenie meyer or a person from the twilight cast.

I was gonna go to twicon in LA on march 12 which ironically is my birthday to meet Carlisle, Emmett, and some people from the wolf pack but it was too expensive :(

It was really good. It's one of those movies you're still thinking about after it's over. LuckyTimothy 03:35, July 22, 2010 (UTC)
- Yep, it was everything I hoped for and more. I dare say... probably my favorite move of the year. More so than Eclipse. Blasphemy, I know. :P LuckyTimothy 03:41, July 22, 2010 (UTC)
Well, simply put, it's about people who go into people's dreams to steal ideas. Sounds really basic, but it goes deeper than that. It definitely sells you on the idea that everything is not what it seems. Don't want to spoil too much. LuckyTimothy 03:52, July 22, 2010 (UTC)
Good morning(:
how are you?

Jasper and Alice Jordan 'Edward Cullen' Farrell 18:28, August 16, 2010 (UTC)
Yeah i've read Breaking Dawn, but i think it's sick. Jacob can't get the mum so he goes for the Daughter....just kidding, but i don't like it...i'd rather edward fall in love with Tanya or someone and Jacob and Bella go out...I wrote an alternate ending to New moon (and then a sequel) in which Jacob and Bella fall in love (in new moon) and then (in the next one) Edward falls in love with Jane because Aro uses Chelsea, who can now make people fall in love, to make them fall in love.... weird huh? Jordan 'Edward Cullen' Farrell 18:37, August 16, 2010 (UTC)

My page
My page is still under work, I just started to edit the page, but I'm not sure if I will take the time to finish the page.
I want my userpage that it looks like my myspacesite.
Yes, of course I would like to be friends!
I'm new in wiki, but I think it isn't able to add friends to a friendlist.
If you mean outside the wiki, I would be very happy, because I don't have any friend, who really likes the twilightsaga (none of them read a tilight-book).

Midnight Sun Characters
Cullen, I was wonderting why you keep to add the "Midnight Sun Character" tag to pages? You should have noticed by now that said tags are being cancelled time after time, and either Meyer is going to reprise Midnight Sun's draft or not, neither case of which support the canonicity of the current draft. Wouldn't it be better to wait and see what happens? Ngebendi 14:18, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
Certainly, many characters, including the main ones, appear there, but since they also appear in what is canon, (from Twilight up to Breaking Dawn), they are canon. Fact is that Midnight Sun is not canon! Ngebendi 16:33, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
I Need To Know.
Okay i want to know who read my story Rensemee's story wrote by me? If you did then will you let me know if you liked it or not and tell me if you want me to put up the 2nt chapter.
CullenLoverForever17 18:50, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
Yes, I would like to be friends! You are cute!

Choose from three formulas — each made with different resins to impart varying degrees of gloss. All are removable with mineral spirits or turpentine so that paintings may be cleaned in the future. Paintings must be thoroughly dry (at least 6–12 months) prior to application.
Gloss Varnish — A general-purpose, non-yellowing varnish, Winsor & Newton Artists' Original Gloss Varnish dries to a high-gloss finish. It may be mixed with Artists' Matt Varnish for a custom degree of gloss.
Matt Varnish — A traditional, wax-based varnish, Winsor & Newton Artists' Original Matt Varnish dries to a flat, non-glossy finish. Please note that Matt Varnish may separate in the bottle after sitting for long periods of time and must be mixed well to result in a proper matte sheen. Simply shake the bottle vigorously, let it settle until any air bubbles disperse, and then stir before applying.
Satin Varnish — This high-quality formula dries quickly to a low-gloss finish. Non-yellowing, it will not bloom or crack. Shake the bottle well before application.

North Carolina's highest court has upheld the conviction of a man serving a life sentence for killing a University of North Carolina-Charlotte student in 2008.
The state Supreme Court on Friday issued no formal opinion in the case of 42-year-old Mark Carver.
A Gaston County jury convicted Carver of first-degree murder in 2011.
Carver and his cousin, Neal Cassada, were accused of strangling 20-year-old Irina Yarmolenko on the banks of the Catawba River in May 2008. Cassada died from a heart attack the day before his trial.
Carver said he was innocent. Forensic experts testified at trial that his DNA was found on Yarmolenko's car but not on the drawstring, bag handle and bungee cord used to strangle her.

Just me being confused and all. And politics. And Pit Bulls. And a couple of babies.
Very sweet!! And her hair! I know I mention it every time, but I love it every time!!!!
Cassie didn't get her Hebrew name until she was probably 7 or 8 years old. Because I didn't know how, but I wasn't really willing to admit to the rabbi that I didn't know how. On the positive side of it, she got to choose the name herself (from a few that the rabbi suggested).
What's in a name? A lot quite a lot!
Jill, her hair is cute now, but if she's older and it stays like that, it might not be as cute. Although Marge Simpson IS a cutie.
SJ, all I know is that she'll be very happy with that name, which by itself will ensure she has a life full of happiness and butterflies. It's the least we could do.
And whilst we were those weird type of people that make up the spelling of kids names, we called our oldest daughter Madelyn too
That's awesome!
Loz, Madelyn is actually getting popular here. It's pronounced the same way as our Madeline, and it won't make her have to correct people who pronounce it like the girl from the Madeline books (with a-- wait, how do you spell pronunciations?).
Mama Zen, thanks!
Well...if that's the route she's going to go, I'm afraid it might be expensive. I got my gal just one lousy blue streak in her hair this summer & it cost a small fortune and only lasted three days!
:-) :-) :-)
Nono. A 3-day blue streak gives you 2 years of Cool credentials.
Is she related to Bernadette Peters?
Only on a spiritual level, that I know of.

Fashion News
Slimane showed a young, hippie new wave menswear for Saint Laurent
25 Jan. 2013
Paris men's shows: Effortless shaping in luxury materials
Five days, 52 shows on the official schedule and snow flurry: The menswear fashionweek in Paris which continues to grow nearly every season and closed last sunday, was this time quite spectacular because of the stormy and cold weather and also because of some interesting newcomers: Valentino showed the menswear collection for the first time in a show, as same as Carven. Both have been invited before at Pitti Uomo. Hedi Slimane, known as renovator of menswear, presented his first collection as new designer for Saint Laurent.
His debut collection for the luxury house was quite surprising as Slimane showed a very young, hippie new wave and slightly grunge menswear, breaking completely with the traditionel style of the house. But he was not the only one, who took his inspiration from the street. Phillip Lim for his brand 3.1. Phillip Lim was inspired by cafe racer culture and Miharayasuhiro named the anti-establishment, punk movement "Chinpira" as his main idea for the collection. Transformed in clothes the designers showed effortless shaping, unconventional elegance and skilful use of classical tailoring in a new and very casual way. Besides this the Bauhaus movement and mountain sports were other inpirations cited by the designers. Louis Vuitton and also Hermès showed a quite sporty collection out of luxury materials, Damir Doma and Wooyoungmi combined this with a strong alignment of cuts and silhouettes in the sense of the school of arts in Weimar.
Classical suits were widely abandonned in favour to a more comfortable and oversized styling with trousers out of soft materials, wide cuts or with elastic bunches and jacketts in differing materials as seen by Kris Van Assche, Lanvin, Viktor& Rolf, Dries van Noten, Paul Smith or Maison Martin Margiela. There are two big trends for trousers: extremly wide and long or a three-quarter lenght, more than a hand over the ankle or even shorter (as seen by Givenchy, Carven, Julien David).
The fashion-trend of mixing materials, already seen in the last seasons, was intensified: Now, even technical fabrics like neoprene or nylon were combined with cashmere, leather or wool qualities (Kolor, Raf Simons, Kris van Assche). As the color range stayed quite restricted in black, gray, navy blue, strong colors were used mainly on tops: like sweater, skirts or jacketts in golden yellow, prune and petrol or as patterned, tight-fitting pull-overs (Raf Simons, Paul Smith. Hermès).
The avant garde designers like Rick Owens, Y. Project by Yohan Serfaty, Boris Bidjan Saberi, Songzio, Juun J. remained true to their style, but softened their outfits with a lot of outerwear jacketts and coats with belts on waistline. Parkas, dufflecoats and classical coats stayed a strong theme for all menswear collections in Paris as also the accessories like bags, scarfs and i-pad cases.

Named for "The Angel of the Mining Camp" and Arizona's oldest club for women, Nellie Cashman's Monday Club Café continues the Resort's tradition of preserving the essence of Arizona with a newly updated menu.
Using many locally sourced ingredients that have been staples of Arizona cuisine since its inception as a territory, this inventive menu presents a modern take on the culinary trends made popular when often rough-and-tumble boom towns such as Tombstone, Jerome, Bisbee and Globe sprang to life in Arizona's silver-rich hills and valleys.
Especially popular are the new menu's Asian-inspired dishes offer a nod to the hundreds of Chinese laborers who came to work in new railroad and mining towns in the late 1870s. The Dutch Oven specials harken to the days when the great cattle drives crossed the American West in the mid-19th Century and barbecue, another staple of early Arizona cowboy cuisine, also features prominently. Locally grown chili peppers have always offered the region's cooks a wide range of flavors and they take pride of place here, bringing an ever-popular South-of-the-border flair to Arizona cuisine.
Nellie Cashman's is open daily from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm The ever-popular Bubbles & Brunch is served from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm Sundays. For information or reservations, call 480-624-1202 or email email@example.com.
