( Lightsout is a boy and is a part of Shadowclan. Darkstar is a girl and part of Windclan. They meet after a gathering...)
Lightsout looked at Darkstar with a glare. He wondered if the leader knew what she was doing.
Darkstar looked back at Lightsout with a hateful glare.
"What? Got somthing on my face!" Hissed Lightsout at the leader. The tom didn't like the way Darkstar was looking at him.
" No... just something seems off about you and I." Darkstar turns away mumbling words on her way.
" Good luck young Lightsout on your mission." Darkstar grins evily and walks away.
Lightsout looked at the leader with a smug look. "Whatever." He said. Turning around the tom sat down next to a bunch of leaves. He felt sad. He hadn't talked to anyone for a bit of time. Thinking he should get up and talk to Darkstar he thought about her evil smile and how it made him uneasy. Standing up Lightsout called her name."Darkstar!"
"What now, Lightsout?" Darkstar turns around and looks Lightsout straight in the eyes.
Lightsout frowned. "I just thought i should know why you think im going to leave you alone." He then trotted over to the leader. "Why don't you show me around you clan?" The shadowclanner smiled showing his teeth.
Darkstar grinned evily. "Well, let me show you my clan."Darkstar leads Lightsout over to her den. Sniffs the air her den and growls. "Blackpaw and Silverpaw get out here."
Lightsout looked back at her..."Okay." He patted up to the side of her and said. "Let's go then!" The tom kept wondering why the she-cat was always grinning like a mad leader about to go over the end of a cliff.
Darkstar goes into her den and drags out a black apperentice and a silver apperentice. " I thought I told you two to stay out of my den. Silverpaw your mentor Deathclaw is looking for you, Blackpaw your mentor Blackout is looking for you. NOW GO!" The two apperentices go running. Darkstar padds back into her den, mumbling words.
Lightsout had watched. He yawned. "So? this is what your all about? The mighty Darkstar chaseing a few apprentices out of her den. "So lame your life must be." The tom sat down and looked at her.
Darkstar's eyes turn from dark red to a bright electric green and she looks back at Lightsout. " What did you say to me?"
Lightsout looked at her. "I said your life must be lame!" The tom stood up. "If you were anything like me you would know a little of the good life and not the babbysitting little kits all the time."
Darkstar roars. Darkstar's eyes become icy blue. " Shut up! It's not my fault that I have to chase apperentices out of my den! Now shut up before I have to start a blood fued."
Darkstar senses her dark side coming out. Darkstar's eyes return to their dark red color. " I-I-I'm sorry I yelled at you."
Darkstar think to herself, " What is happening to me? Am I starting to be unable to control my evil side?"
Lightsout was a little shocked at first but regained as the she-cat calmed down. "It's fine Darkstar." The tom huffed and sat down again. "It must be bashingly hard to be a leader. Always looking after warriors and stuff. I'll never know that, im just a shadowclanner looking for his next thrill." Lightsout sighed.
Darkstar sighed and padded over to the den wall and stractched it. " You have no idea how hard it is."
Lightsout nodded. "Well...I bet if you lightend up just a bit and tryed to have fun you will see theres more to life then kitsitting." Standing up again he walked over to her. The tom then said- "I bet a walk will clear your head of such worries."
Darkstar nodded. " Would you like to come with me?"
Darkstar's eyes turn pure white. Darkstar speaks as if shes saying a profecy. " The new moon will be the last night. Darkstar is the last one. She is going to disappear."
Lightsout tillted his head to the way Darkstar had talked.
"You Okay?" He asked slightly worried for the leader, It didn't sound like her voice.
Darkstar closed her eyes and hanged her head. " Ya.. I'm fine. Just tired."
Darkstar goes over to the wall and lays next to it.
Lightsout moves a little closer to the leader.
Darkstar looks up and tilts her head to the side. " Why did you move a little closer to me?"
"I just really want to make sure your alright." Lightsouts said worried.
Flicking his tail the tom placed it on the she-cat's shoulder. "Come, let's take a walk."
Darkstar gets up and starts padding towards the entrance of the cave. " Lightsout, this may sound unusual but, your one of the nicest shadowclan cats I have ever met."
Lightsout tilted his head to the side again.
"Urm...Thank's Darkstar." He said..
"And i have to say your not that bad your self."
Darkstar smiles normally. " Thanks Lightsout."
Light'sout smiled back.
Darkstar raises her head as a queen approaches. "What they do now, Glassclaw?" Glassclaw looks up with saddening eyes and drops a lifeless body. "RIVERKIT! What happened to him?" Glassclaw points to the bush at the side of the camp. Darkstar walks over to the bush and takes a berry off. "Deathberries....." Darkstar walks up to the queen and licks her ear. "It'll be alright Glassclaw. He's with Starclan."
Lightsout stood bye....
"Is...Is there anything i can do to help Darkstar?" The tom felt sorry for the queen.
He moved over to the poor kit.
"My Starclan lead the way." Lightsout thought about his sister and how he would be sad if anything ever happend to her.
Turning to Glassclaw the tom asked-
"Will you be alright?"
Darkstar looked at Glassclaw with sad eyes. " Glassclaw take Riverkit over to my den.. I will need to speak to Starclan about this." Darkstar turns towards Lightsout. " Lightsout... can you go back to your leader and tell him you'll be out on your mission with me?"
Lightsout looked at Darkstar for a moment. "Alright..." He said and dashed off.
Darkstar sighs. " I'm sorry for your lose Glassclaw."
Lightsout's long legs were able to carry him from and back to Darkstar's clan. Coming into the camp he said with a breath-"It took some doing but i was able to make Vengastar(Shadowclan leader!) see that you need help." Sitting down the tom liked his paw, getting some mud he had tracked into the camp.
Darkstar turns around her eyes golden. " Goodie. Now would you like to start your mission?
Lightsout nodded. He turned around and said- "My mish today was to find and track down a fox that was wondering in both your's and my camp grounds, Vengastar told me it would be a good idea to ask you if you knew anything about the Vixen."
Darkstar lifted her head at the name. " What's the Vixen?"
Lightsout looked at her. "Im sure i thought you knew. Well a Vixen is a half fox have warrior...and it so happens that the Vixen im looking for is My leaders son."
Darkstar laughs. " Haha. Now ready to find the fox?"
"Yep!" Walking forward Lightsout sniffed the gound.
"The last i heard he was heading east."
" Correct young Lightsout but there's also a badger over towards the east." Darkstar grins evily and her eyes turn the same color as Lightsout's.
Lightsout turned his Green eyes to The leader.
"Really? You have a good sense of smell." He said nicely.
" Thank you. I have to lead my warriors out since prey is starting to be scarce on Windclan territory." Darkstar turns her head towards the entrance. " Lets go find the fox and try not to get attacked by the badger."
"Okay...But keep in mind this is my leaders son." Lightsout said as he trotted along side the Windclan leader.
" Were not going to kill him. Were going to bring him back to your camp." Darkstar throws her head back and laughs.
Lightsout raised an eyebrow.
"Alright crazycat cool it." He said with a short laugh right back at her.
Then, there was a sudden rush in the tree's ahead..
Unsheathing his claws the tom said- "Could that be Whitesun.
Darkstar brings her head down. " Thats not Whitesun. It's something else.
Darkstar smells the air. " It's the scent of Thunderlcan."
"Oh dang!" Lightsout said then cured under his breath...
"How are we going to say that the leader of Windclan and warrior of Shadowclan are working together to find a half Cat half Fox!"
The tom growled...
Darkstar turns around grinning her evil smile scaring away the Thunderlcan cat. Darkstar laughs evily. " Man.. sometimes I think I'm scary enough I'm insane."
Lightsout smiled as he watched the thunderclanner run like a scared little kit.
"Nice one Darkstar!" He said scratching his claws on the ground.
Darkstar sniffs the air. " I smell Whitesun, he's nearby."
Darkstar unshealthes her claw and twirles around, seeing Whitesun grinning.
Lightsout did the same and turned around to see a big fox with cat like features
Whitesun growled at the two and lashed out a paw with unsheathed claws at them.
Darkstar dodges the attack and pins the Vixen to the ground letting her evil side loose. " Haha. Nice try Whitesun." Darkstar has a different voice.
"Wo!" Lightsout didnt think the Windclan leader was so fast.
He ran over to the side of the two and said boldly.
"Whitesun! You come home or we have to teach you not to run off like that again!"
The tom looked at the Vixen but it tryed to stuggle under the leader, trying to push her off.
Darkstar's pelt turns pure darkness and so does her eyes. " Bring him home now Lightsout." Darkstar looks at Lightsout telling him telepathlically yo leave imeadtly.

Therapeutic Areas: Pulmonary/Respiratory Diseases
Disease Category: Respiratory Failure
Location: United States, CO
Join our clinical research study for asthmatics who have experienced a serious asthma episode in the past year
We are seeking study volunteers at least 12 years of age who have required treatment with systemic corticosteroids (tablets, suspension or injection) OR who have been hospitalized for 24 hours or more due to a worsening of asthma within the past year.
This clinical study is being undertaken with the purpose of comparing the incidence of serious asthma outcomes in study participants treated during the study primarily with a combination of inhaled steroid and a long-acting beta-agonist (bronchodilator*) medication and those treated primarily with an inhaled steroid medication alone. A serious asthma outcome includes asthma-related hospitalization, intubation (the insertion of a breathing tube), and death.
* A medication that relaxes the involuntary muscles of the airways in the body. When these muscles are tightened, they constrict airflow; when relaxed, they allow the air to move more freely through the airways.

Todd Monken emerges as candidate for Southern Miss head coaching job
Oklahoma State offensive coordinator Todd Monken has, once again, emerged as a legitimate candidate for the head coaching job at Southern Miss.
A source close to the USM program told The Oklahoman Monday that Monken is believed to be one of three top contenders for the job. The others are North Carolina offensive coordinator Blake Anderson and Sam Houston State head coach Willie Fritz. Interviews for the position were set to begin over the weekend.
Monken interviewed last year for the head job at USM. Ellis Johnson was eventually hired, then fired after going 0-12 this season.
USM athletic director Jeff Hammond told the Biloxi Sun Herald last week that he would like to have a coach hired by Dec. 19. But the decision could be made by the end of the week, the source said.
Monken has also been linked to the opening at Louisiana Tech, where he was an assistant coach from 2000-01. Under former coach Sonny Dykes, the Bulldogs ran the same Air Raid spread offense as OSU.
Monken is in his second season as OSU's offensive coordinator, where he has directed one of the nation's most prolific attacks. The Cowboys rank fifth in the nation in total offense (548.92 yards per game) and fourth in scoring offense (44.67 points per game), despite losing two first-round NFL Draft picks in quarterback Brandon Weeden and receiver Justin Blackmon, needing three starting quarterbacks and sustaining a bevy of injuries on that side of the ball.
USM has a history of hiring OSU offensive coordinators, as Jeff Bower and Larry Fedora both went from running the offense in Stillwater to head coaching in Hattiesburg. Fedora then made the jump from USM to North Carolina last year.

Review quote
Physically this is one book, but its contents can easily be divided into two sub-books. First, you get a mind-bendingly thorough design and technique master class. And second, you get a collection of 15 gorgeous, innovative, and extremely tempting sock patterns. In the first half of the book, Cookie reveals an array of invaluable design secrets. We're not just talking about toes and gussets here, although she outlines those with great clarity. Likewise, she explains afterthought heels in a way that makes me want to cast on and experiment right now. We're talking things like inverting stitch patterns so that you can knit them both in the round and in right-side/wrong-side rows. Also, converting and re-charting flat stitch pattern charts into charts you can follow in the round. Cookie writes with intelligence and passion, and assumes the same degree of intelligence and avidity in her reader, which makes this book an extremely refreshing read. She has a gift for explaining things we may already know instinctively, but in a way that finally gives us an "a-ha!" moment of true revelation. These are small things, like how we should decrease cable stitches when transitioning from cables to stockinette in order to prevent puckering in the fabric. Cookie then proceeds to deliver 15 original new designs. Her socks are not simple stockinette affairs,they tend to have the stunningly ornate and sculptural detail of a Gothic cathedral. While these may look complicated, they are entirely achievable by any knitter who knows how socks work, can read a chart, and has a little patience. Cookie A's sock patterns have been so popular that I know expectations were very high for this book. Having spent some time with it, I can say that the book meets and exceeds every expectation I had. This is a brilliant and valuable book that every avid sock knitter will want to own.-Knitter's Review An exciting book that will take the average sock knitter beyond their normal realm. The projects are quite challenging so I think it would be more useful for readers who can already knit socks and would like to move to the next stage. The projects and tutorials are extremely well presented and clearly laid out, with plenty of photos and a lot of helpful advice. It is definitely great value for money with lots of useful information and an array of challenging projects.-Craft Business Thought you knew everything about sock knitting? Think again! This book takes the craft of socks to a whole new level, exploring the principles of sock pattern symmetry, cables that travel off the grid, and how to make your own designs work hard for their yarn. It's advanced, almost mathematical stuff, yet clearly and carefully explained - this is incredibly rewarding knitting.-AllAboutYou.com One of the most hotly-anticipated knitting books of 2009, Cookie A's first book is an excellent introduction to both knitting and designing socks, as well as being packed with her typically intricate designs. [This] is a book of two halves, and unlike most pattern books not only encourages you to branch out - to make changes, to create your own designs, to innovate - but teaches you how to go about it. The first 50 pages delve into the elements of sock design. Cookie keeps the pages clutter-free and informative, packing them with details which will interest sock knitters of all stripes: for budding designers, the glimpse into her process and technical information is invaluable, while for knitters keen to develop their skills the technical information about different sock toes and heels or reading charts is clear and well-presented. While the book is worth a look for the technical information alone, the 15 patterns are both varied and interesting, using a wide range of skills and stitches. As Cookie comments in the introduction, "Any technique that can be used in a sweater can be done on a smaller scale in a sock. They provide the perfect learning ground for knitting design." Knitting socks is the ideal way to learn new techniques, and we hope that her beautiful, elegant designs will encourage knitters to dive in, try a cable, and prodjce a pair of lovely and unique socks.-Simply Knittingshow more

I forgot to log my work on Norushen today. I saw my pet got 50% corruption and it was static the entire time. My question is... do guardians i.e Doomguard or Primal Elemental get effected by 50% corruption.
With the ilvl only creeping up, for the first few weeks I would imagine we would be tanky enough. 65%-72% is effectively 21% less dmg, with the trinket difference offsetting our lost 10% reduction.
Excited to try it out!
fel armor need a buff, a +60% armor contribution (and recalibrate nether plating, of course)?
and conflag wouldnt really affect ember regen much, now if you meant changing backdraft to generate more embers while its up, you'd be right.
... but I highly doubt it was meant to be intended, that is beyond retarded if it is
If they would have originally changed the mechanic of RoF ember regen as opposed to reducing the regen so that it was most effective on 4-10 but the ember regen remained the same on 4 adds in 5.4 as it is in 5.3 then Destro would be able to spam CB's once again.
I am not suggesting I like where Destro is, I don't.
As far as ember regen is concerned they have really been pressing on not increasing that in any significant way. Realistically they don't seem to have time for Destro at the moment so really just hoping for another small damage buff so we remain competitive up to a certain point.

Since the T16x4 bonus is designed to scale inversely with ember generation spikes/gear I'd think they don't want destro having 30% extra generation. Unfortunately that leaves the spec so far behind as to be non competitive outside of niches where it can snipe shadowburns and/or havoc them onto other targets. It also makes aoe of 4-6 targets unsustainable (gg on aoe change) so it really limits destro's niche even further.
The demo bonus really needs a fix before live...it should not charge DF nor expend charges. May just roll with the soulfire bonus and call it a day.
Good thing I am tanking this tier. Their response to our issues and the fact that they aren't doing shit is getting pretty old.
It would be fun to see how they judge the revamp at the end of the expac. Like i said earlier, maybe it's not the warlock class that has the issues but more so the damn developers behind the wheel.
- - - Updated - - -
This patch is looking very grim for warlocks
For every small buff/fix comes atleast 3 nerfs/negative redesigns
I would love to see for PVP, destro locks get the piercing CB back, maybe off a proc. IMO there was no more satisfying kill than destroying a dk through his AM shield.
For PVE, they could maybe incorporate a proc for a visually exciting CB that does significantly more damage than norm for a greater mana amount 50% for eg.
ok guys calm down. ive followed the discussion for the last 20 pages. nobody is forcing you to play the highest dps spec when 5.4 drops, but if you want to do max damage you have to play affliction. other class specs always have the problem that 1 spec is completly broken (look at MM hunters in 5.2).
yes but when you wanna do the maximum dps you have to play affliction, similar to play demo in 5.2/5.3. although i rather play affliction i had to change spec to demonology for maximum dps on most bosses. now you have to spec to affliction from destru.
maybe next expansion we have to spec from affliction to destruction for maximum dps.
Last edited by parayok; 2013-08-29 at 12:11 PM.
You have a point parayok, especially earlier about MM hunters being bottom of the barrel, but then in all fairness warlocks received a complete overhaul this expansion so people would expect that the specs play within reasonable distances of eachother.
Also, destruction warlocks were explicitly told that the removal of embers from RoF would be compensated for with damage buffs elsewhere, which has only been acted upon with a pitiful 10% buff to immolate.
I'm confident we will see a buff to destruction, I'm just concerned it will leave too little time to test.
Agree with Parayok. There is always a strongest spec.
It's just the spec most people like (destro) does not seem viable on all fights.
However, as cabana mentionned, there are fights where it is still strong in SoO. It is just situational.
Edit: Do not be confident about a buff to destro. It probaly won't happen; it might happen. There was a buff already, i don't see why Blizzard / GC would add another one before things go live after reading their tweets. They are "keeping an eye on Destro", therefore i don't think it'll get buffs before the patch goes live.

Abdulla Kalban
The CEO of Dubai Aluminium or Dubal: His company contributes around $600m to Dubai's economy every year.
August 11, 2008 8:08 by kippreport
Kalban was appointed as CEO of state-owned Dubai Aluminium (Dubal) in 2005. He was the first UAE national to take on the role since Dubal started in 1979.
With a degree in industrial engineering from the US, Kalban joined the company in 1985 as a graduate trainee. He went to occupy several positions, including general manager of smelting operations, and the director of operations.
Dubal provides hot metal aluminium for clients in more than 44 countries, and by the year-end, the company hopes to produce around one million tonnes of the metal.
Kalban is also the chairman of the safety committee in the International Primary Aluminium Institute and the deputy chairman of the Zayed International Prize for Environment.

Aaron Garcia looks to turn LA KISS season around
LA's new AFL team wasn't meant to be mediocre, but new QB Aaron Garcia, owner of every major AFL career passing record, is looking to change that.
WHITTIER, Calif -- Los Angeles' new football team wasn't meant to be dull and mediocre. But eight weeks into the season, the Los Angeles KISS' inaugural year is heading toward a realm of bitter disappointment.
Riding a five-game losing streak and plummeting in the standings, the KISS were in desperate need of a change.
The offense, in particular, was last in scoring and total offense. In a league that thrives on high scoring and non-stop action, KISS was inconsistent and inefficient.
"Unfortunately, blame falls on the quarterback when the offense isn't going well," said KISS head coach Bob McMillen. "We felt we had to make a decision to maybe make a change and we had the opportunity to get maybe the greatest quarterback to ever play this game."
Enter Aaron Garcia, the 19-year journeyman from Sacramento, owner of every major AFL career passing record.
On Monday, KISS (2-6) acquired Garcia from the Jacksonville Sharks in a three-team trade in exchange for quarterback J.J. Raterink, a No. 3 claim spot and future considerations. The Sharks sent Raterink to the Iowa Barnstormers for defensive tackle James McClinton.
Join us this Saturday @DaveandBusters Orange for the Official @LAKISS_AFL Watch Party!#LAKISS https://t.co/zSDwIqoYtu pic.twitter.com/LrkG4mXvhd— LA KISS (@LAKISS_AFL)
May 14, 2014
McMillen and Garcia reunite after beginning their AFL careers almost 20 years ago. McMillen, a fullback, and Garcia under center, were both rookies for the Arizona Rattlers.
McMillen was recently inducted into the Hall of Fame and Garcia is well on his way. In 2012, he was named No. 3 on the AFL's list of Top 25 Greatest Players.
Garcia is a three-time First Team All-Arena selection and an ArenaBowl MVP after winning the ArenaBowl 2011.
Just weeks removed from considering leaving the game for good, Garcia now has taken on the task to turn the KISS' season around.
"Probably about three or four weeks ago, I thought I was done with football. I thought I was going to retire," Garcia said. "This opportunity came up and to be able to stay fairly close to home, I can get on a plane and be home in an hour and drive if I have to and be with my kids, that made a big difference, so I was excited."

Even at 2-6, the possibility of making the postseason is not out of reach.
Garcia is no stranger to this situation.
Last season, he was traded midseason to the Orlando Predators, who began the season 0-5. Garcia helped Orlando win seven of the remaining 11 games to lead the Predators to a playoff berth.
In only two days with the KISS, Garcia as brought a sense comfort and security, giving McMillen no reason to panic.
-- KISS coach Bob McMillen
"It sucks to be in a five-game skid, but there are still 10 games left in the season," McMillen said. "We hold our own destiny. We know that we can get better. We're hoping with these moves, we can get better."
We're not panicking right now. Are we frustrated? Yes, but we're not in panic mode," McMillen said.
Garcia has brought his own playbook with him and essentially teaching the offense, while taking snaps under center.
So far, the transition has been smooth.
"Bob brought me in very open to what I do. I've been doing it for 18 years and it's what I feel like I'm good at. 'You can't teach an old dog new tricks' -- it's easier to get these young guys on the same page and it's been successful," Garcia said.

Hatfest Music Festival on tap this weekend
Published: Tuesday, June 25, 2013 at 3:30 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, June 25, 2013 at 3:30 p.m.
The Hatfest music festival will feature eight bands over three nights in downtown Wilmington this weekend, with shows on Friday at the Soapbox, Saturday at the Calico Room and Sunday at Orton's.
What: Hatfest music festival
When & Where: June 28 at The Soapbox, 255 N. Front St.; June 29 at the Calico Room, 107 S. Front St.; June 30 at Orton's 133 N. Front St., all venues in downtown Wilmington
Tickets: $5 per night
Details: Event page on Facebook
Friday: Astronauts Anonymous, Pretend Surprise and the Greasy Granny Band
Saturday: Lucky 5, Nomadic and Bad News Beers
Sunday: Bad News Beers, Alligator and Kit Marlowe
Hatfest is the brainchild of Chris Hatfield, a Wilmington musician who plays with Bad News Beers, a three-member progressive, instrumental rock band. Other Hatfest bands include Lucky Five, a multi-member Charlotte act that mixes funk, blues and R&B.
Hatfield started Hatfest last year and has starred in and produced short videos to promote it. He recently answered some questions about the festival.
What was the catalyst for Hatfest?
It was originally to get a lot of my friends' bands from out of town to play in Wilmington with the local bands that already had a good following here, to immerse them into the Wilmington scene.
What were you hoping would come out of it?
My ultimate vision at the start was to eventually get Hatfest to the point were it was big enough to have a bunch of different venues with dozens of bands around town all playing at once, like Moogfest (in Asheville).
The promotional videos seem to be a great way to capture an audience.
In making the Hatfest skit videos, we created something that was 10 times more stimulating than just creating a Facebook event page and a flyer. It was a good way to introduce the bands, as well as myself, through social media.
Features: 343-2343

Desktop search in Perl
On a big, busy Linux desktop, it is too easy for files to get lost. We'll show you a Perl script that creates a MySQL database to find files in next to no time.
Now where did I store that script I put together yesterday? Which are the newest files, which take up the most disk space, or which files have not been touched for at least three years? And where was that text file that I wrote last week containing the words "Michael" and "raise?" Of course, there is nothing to stop you navigating the disk level by level and retrieving the information you need. Cheap but enormous hard disks have led to users no longer bothering to tidy up their home directories in recent years; find and other utilities often need to navigate tens or even hundreds of thousands of irrelevant entries before they come up with the goods. That takes time, and time is a luxury that many people don't have.

I have not had any conversation about warts or anything with husband other than when we began dating and him insisting he was clean etc. I went back into the pharmacy as quickly as I could walking like an 80 year old woman. I handed the paper to him and asked if he would explain himself. He said that he in fact DID mention this to me and he followed up with a dermatologist that said no it was not warts, it was skin tags. Tito beat it all, the date on the paper from October was a date that my daughter and I were up north visiting my family. He said I must have been groggy from anesthesia and didn't remember him telling me. I cannot for the life of me ever remember him saying anything about this matter and I wasn't so groggy that I didn't remember being out of town on the date stated in the papers.
I don't know how to feel, what to think, etc. It just seems odd to me that if he felt like something was wrong "down there" he would've told me, which he insists he did but I don't think he did. And if so, then shame on me but my memory is pretty d*mn good so I find this hard to fathom. Also, it just seems odd to me for him to have gotten "checked out" while I was gone. Leaving enough time for treatment possibly? My husband has not been a saint or as honest with me as I would like but I never thought I would be trying to sort through something like this. I also think if he had gen. warts the first thing he would do is try to blame me. So now my mind is racing. I need to get checked now. Did he get tested because he suspected warts because he has cheated but turns out there were none or does he in fact have them? Have any of you ever had a similar experience? Sorry this is so long and for any typos. I'm still groggy and now my mind is running a marathon. Thanks in advance ladies xx.

It didn't matter to her that the day was beautiful in Green Hill Zone despite the turmoil that just occurred, or the horrid smell of gasoline that helped trigger the explosion to the latest "Egg-Obliterator" machine that went from scary to scrap metal within 3 minutes tops. Her friends' constant cheers and gloating was faint in her ears. All she could think about was the teasing, unbearable heat as it continued to beat down without mercy upon her, leaving the daunting task of fanning herself with her hand, and wiping the sweat off her forehead…at the same time.
She sighed in exasperation and annoyance as the sun continued to outdo the shade of the tree she stood under and shine down on her, delaying her schedule. By this exact time, she was supposed to be nuzzling her face into the blissful abundance of ocean colored fur, taking in every scent and moment before she would be forcefully removed within arm's length, and then released to prepare her for the "chase" to catch the moment once more, only for it to be gone until the next gathering.
Yes, she was wasting precious time as she continued to view the multiple high-fives of her team mates and the dashing smirk of her hero as he started to aggravate a certain scarlet colored echidna over how "slow" he was in taking the machine down compared to his speed.
That smirk.
That darn…accursed…handsome smirk of his.
How she adored and despised it at the same time.
It was a subtle, yet cocky expression that defined confidence and spunk, but yet contained humbleness, loyalty, and accomplishment. But whenever she would be near him…the expression would change.
Instead, a look of horror, exasperation, and worst of all "tolerance" would replace the cool and collected expression of her hero.
For everyone else, it was trademark. It was completely natural for the blue hedgehog to be so open, egotistic, and benevolent towards them. Only on rare occasions, could she have his trademark expression willingly directed towards her for a long period of time. However, when she was away or out of the picture, the expression was there full force. Well, at least she had a good view of it from afar right?
Wrong. She hated it.
It was as if that simple up turned direction of his lips teased her, belittled her, and literally sang "Na-nana- nana, you can't catch me!" tempting her to prove it wrong every time, determined to win the battle, only for her to lose.
Every. Single. Time.
So why did she not give up?
Why continue to endure through such torture?
Because she saw something.
It was something deep in his piercing bright green eyes, and it went beyond his cocky smirk.
Within that expression of his, there was no evil or hatred. Sure it made her feel inferior at times, but she saw emotion. The concern, fear, and even anger when she would be in danger, the amusement and patience when she would be ranting at one moment, but determined to keep her hero, friends, and the world safe the next. She saw the shyness, and appreciation, when she would be genuine about her feelings for him. And when they were together, in those rare and quiet times, she saw the devotion that matched hers and gave a silent message saying "I know you're there, and I'm still here for you. I always will be."
Simply put, she saw hope.
Hope that fueled her dreams of a future with him and that made her charged up and ready to run after said dreams.
He was like the wind, wild and free to blow where he pleased, knowing when to be as soft as a summer breeze or powerful and merciless like a hurricane.
Either way, she loved the wind.
And boy did she use every opportunity to make her affection known. Maybe that's why she clung on for dear life. Maybe that's why she would rant on and on like a waterfall of her desires.
Because she knew that her time was limited.
She knew that the wind was free and had a busy schedule to keep. She knew it had other places to be in and how it wasn't a guarantee that it would stay at all. So to have it blow so close to her, she took it not for granted and tried to take in every moment she could, before it would blow away from her in seconds.
She knew the wind could not be stopped and that it would not stop for anything.
And she was fine with that.
She had no desire to halt the wind.
She only wished for the wind to change its direction so that it would blow constantly towards and upon her instead of away from her, leaving her victim to the heat.
But that's how it was.
It was a repetitive cycle to tell you the truth.
And quite frankly, she was tired of it.
There had to be something she could do to end the cliché moments between him and her.
There had to be something that she could do to express her feelings and leave the wind no choice but to be near her at the same time.
There had to be something she could do to change the wind's direction.
There was.
The rose colored hedgehog walked at a normal pace towards the group in silence. Still, reprimanding herself of not bringing water or being more prepared for the hot summer day, she continued to the task at hand.
Her friends did not think much of it or notice her approaching the blue hedgehog cautiously but confidently with every step she took. The blue blur definitely did not take note of the pink bubble gum colored hedgehog as he continued to laugh heartily at Knuckle's sad attempts to "hold Sonic still enough to punch him".
But he had no choice but to take notice of her when he found a sudden and unexpected sweet taste on his lips.
Obviously he didn't see it coming.
He knew she was nearby, and kept on high alert for the high-pitched, ear piercing yell of "SOONIIC, OH MY DARLING SONIC!", that would sound off at any time and leave him ready to break the sound barrier to get away from her yet again. But since she kept her distance, he kept his with his friends. Seeing how it was a hot day and she was found trying to miserably keep herself cool under the shade of a tree at that moment, it wasn't abnormal for her to be distracted from her being close to him.
Either way, he didn't mind the peace.
But to be caught off guard like this?!
There was nothing he could say, seeing how his mouth was pretty occupied at the moment. But even more so, for some strange reason, there was nothing he could do!
It was strange and ironic how his reflexes would be the fastest with her around, even faster than when he was in battle. It wasn't as if he couldn't break out of her hold. He'd done it many times. However, with this particular "hold" of her hands softly yet firmly caressing his cheeks as she continued to take "hold" of his lips in hers…
He couldn't move if he tried.
The only thing that was moving, besides his pupils dilating, was his heartbeat.
Oh, his heartbeat had no trouble moving at all. In fact, it outran the fastest speeds he had ever run in his life. It broke sound and light barrier at the same time if possible.
And he couldn't do a thing about it.
Another thing that was running was his thoughts.
Different emotions and thoughts were clashing together at an alarming pace filled with "Who, what, when, where, and why's", a few "How the hecks?!", "How dare she?!", and "How'd she catch me off guard like this?!" were present in his mind as well.
But one unfamiliar thought seemed to overpower the others...
And whatever thought it was it caused him to have a reaction.
It was a reaction of his body becoming more relaxed, his eyes slowly closing, and his hands very slowly rising towards her direction.
It looked as if he was going to lose himself, and he was.
That is until she pulled away…
It was then, when she released him and distanced herself within arm's length that jaded eyes locked onto once again wide emerald eyes.
Only difference was that in that moment,
All was perfectly still.
There were no declarations of love, groaning, no "Knock it off Amy!", "Lighten up already!" or "There they go again…" comments from their friends.
No, all was completely silent.
The only thing "moving" was an unfamiliar heat that was quickly rising to the cobalt hedgehog's cheeks as he continued to stare at the rose colored hedgehog in complete shock.
Feeling the heat rise to her face as well, she turned to everyone else who was in complete shock and silence at her actions. Laughing nervously, she threw a thumbs up in everyone's direction and said,
"Um…Good teamwork out there today everyone!"
And with that, she rushed away from the scene, leaving her friends to continually stay like statues.
She didn't turn back.
She kept running farther away until she neared another zone area. After catching her breath, her mind went back to how unbearable the heat was as the sun continued to make its presence known.
Until she felt an unfamiliar breeze brush past her, cooling her off.
The breeze was pleasant, refreshing, and yet flustered as it continued to softly blow upon her.
As if it was shy, yet happy to blow in her direction.
Suddenly, she saw a flash of blue come near her direction. Not stopping as it passed by her, she saw a pair of shining emerald eyes that at first grew wide, but then she saw a faint but familiar smirk aimed at her.
Just for her.
It was gone as quick as it came, but she caught it. And once again, her hope was energized.
Somehow, the wind had changed direction.
The young rosy hedgehog continued to enjoy the breeze as it swayed her quills and bright red dress, continually keeping her cooled off from the sun's rays.
There was no telling what crazy thoughts were running through their minds, but at the moment…It didn't matter.
Somewhere, distant from each other, a blue and pink hedgehog licked their lips, and smiled.

This is my first Sonamy fanfiction ever. I've been a fan for a while, and also a very dedicated follower on fanfiction.net (starfiction123), so I thought....Why the heck not give it a shot! Even for my own enjoyment lol. So hope ya'll like it. I will be posting this on fanfiction as well. I just wanted to give it a test "run" here first.

Amy has always been blunt in expressing her feelings for Sonic, but this truly was a change of tactic. At one point I worried that Amy was essentially painting Sonic into a corner by kissing him out of the blue, in front of all their friends, but at the same time, it seemed to have worked.
I'm impressed at this being your first Sonamy fan fiction. Have you done any other writing prior to this moment? I ask because the writing is more neatly arranged than I'd expect to see in a first-time work (and I should know).

Lol would you believe yes? This is my very first time writing and like my latest post in my journal states, I got tired of Emotional, over the top, out of character Sonamy stories and just decided to do something! I used to do other stories besides this in other categories but my lack of grammar and proofreading skills made me delete them. To this day, I'm still not an expert, but I know enough to hopefully make someone go, "Hmm, not bad." lol
When I started writing Sonamy fan fiction myself, I didn't want to make a mushy love story either, because that's far too cookie-cutter in my opinion. My stories center mostly on action with a little bit of drama, a little bit of romance, and a little bit of comedy.
Well, I can't say much else I didn't already say on FF. So great job!
Omg this is a an awesome story^^ great job!!
-died of cuteness-
*places rose on tombstone*

Thank you soo much!!! That just inspires me. Really thank you! I definitely will in the future!
awesome!! i love it
Do more!!
This was just amazing!
That was a first Sonamy fanfic? I think you're joking. That was so detailed, so true to the characters, and the wind metaphor absolutely brilliant!! Keep it up!!
Nice work! I liked this line "She knew that the wind was free and had a busy schedule to keep." I don't know why it just stuck out to me. I like metaphors. haha. I love the way you portrayed Amy's thoughts and feelings. It's perfect
Wow! This is your first attempt? I'm impressed!
You put so much detail into this, It's very beautifully written. Well done!
You put so much detail into this, It's very beautifully written. Well done!
Okay, I usually don't read fanfiction anymore, but the name caught me. GURL, this was SO GREAT. for a first attempt? S RANK! (sonic riders) it really was amazing! I liked how it started out cute and honest, then suddenly the bold move! Sonic's surpise, the awkward silence of their friends, and then, "Uhh.. good work everyone!" and bailing out of that as soon as possible! LOL!! I cried it was so funny!!! XDDD haha! I'm glad the wind took notice of the rose, good job, PicturePrincess!!! <3 it was a good read ^^
Oh my gosh thank you soo much! That means soo much coming from you because I reeally loved your story!I'm so glad you enjoyed it and that it went well for my first time...Shoot S rank?! Awesomeness! Best rank in Sonic games ever! I got it on fanfiction.net too, but I'm glad you liked it! Thanks for commenting and faving.
How cute! ^^
Very beautiful.
That, my friend, was the most BEAUTIFUL, BREATHTAKING, AMAZING SONAMY STORY EVER!!!! The start was VERY well written, all those descriptive words were AMAZING, seriously, you should become an author!!! You had me picturing the whole story, and I could see and hear and breathe what was going on it was that well written!! You have done such an AMAZING JOB, and this is why I'm a Sonamy fan, because you just gave me EXTRA hope that Sonamy CAN happen!! WELL DONE, AND KEEP UP THE STUNNING WORK!!

Today American Airlines announced mostly negative changes for earning status in 2016 for 2017. (It also announced negative changes to earning award miles on paid flights and to its award chart.) The five big changes to status earning:
1. No More Elite Qualifying Points
There used to be three ways to earn status: elite qualifying points (EQP), elite qualifying miles (EQM), segments. In 2016, there will be two, with EQP getting the axe.
The number of elite qualifying miles and segments needed to qualify have not changed.
2. Elite Qualify Miles Are Earned at a Higher Rate
The only good change of the five is that EQM will be easier to earn. For travel in 2016 on American Airlines flights, you will earn:
- 3 EQM per mile flown on Full Fare First and Business Class
- 2 EQM per mile flown on Discounted First and Business Class
- 1.5 EQM per mile flown on Full Fare Economy Class
- 1 EQM per mile flown on Discounted Class
This is significantly better than the old earning rate for EQM and significantly better than United or Delta's earning rate.
This means it will be far easier to qualify for status, which means that more people will qualify, which means that upgrades will be harder.
So even this "good" change is bad for existing elites who would have re-qualified under the old rules.
3. Status Only Good Through January 31
Status used to be good through February 28 two years later. That is, status earned in 2013 was good until February 28, 2015. Now status is good for one less month.
That is, status you earn in 2016 will be good through January 31, 2018.
4. Only Four Systemwide Upgrades for Executive Platinum
When you qualify or re-qualify for Executive Platinum status in 2016, you will get four Systemwide Upgrades (SWUs). You used to get eight. SWUs allow you to upgrade any paid fare on any American Airlines flight as long as upgrade space is available. They are worth several hundred dollars each.
In 2016, you get two more SWUs for flying 150,000 EQM in 2016 and two more for flying 200,000 EQM. That means to get the same eight you got this year, you'd need to fly twice as many EQM next year.
Eight is the new maximum number of SWUs you can earn in a year.
5. Golds and Platinums Must Fly 25% More Miles to Earn 500 Mile Upgrades
In 2015, Gold and Platinum elites get four 500-mile upgrades for every 10,000 EQMs they earn. In 2016, they will get four 500-mile upgrades for every 12,500 EQMs they earn.
These tiers of elite status get unlimited free upgrades on flights under 500 miles but must use two or more 500-mile upgrades to upgrade other flights.
Other than these five changes, the 2016 program should be the same as the 2015 program.
Surprising non-changes include:
- American did not add a revenue requirement to earn status. Delta and United both require that you spend a certain amount of money with the airline in addition to flying a certain number of miles/segments.
- There are still only three levels of status at 25k, 50k, and 100k. United and Delta have, and US Airways had, four levels of status. I expected a 75k level to be inserted.
- Platinum elites (50k) still get a 100% bonus of award miles on paid flights. United and Delta 50k elites only get a 50% bonus. Of course, in the second half of 2016, the number of award miles earned will be tied to the dollars spent on the flight. Platinums will earn 8x miles per dollar versus 5x for non-elites, which is only a 60% bonus.
Bottom Line
American Airlines status is going to be easier to get next year, but it will be worth less because all levels get fewer upgrades, it lasts a month less than previously, and you will earn award miles from flying at a lower rate based on the cost of your ticket.
Plus, the award chart gets a lot worse in four months.------------------------------------------------------------

ELYSIUM - Spacestation by BenMauroWatch
©2013-2016 BenMauro
I honestly did not enjoy the Movie as much as I thought I would. But I liked the cyberpunk vibe to it.
this is great.
just awsome.
lovely effect and nice details.
its even better then the movie itself xD
In terms of process — where do sketches like this take place? Immediately before final renders or they grow with even more details after some discussions with (who, btw — art director, director?).
Just curios.
These took place extremely early on, way before the film was funded. Aaron Beck and myself had to illustrate the whole script to sell the idea to studios, so we would read the script or get some notes from the director each morning "i need a shot of the tourus from space" and that's about it. Everything is refined and designed much later once the film is in production.
Side question — did you have to draw any inspiration from District 9 for concepts? In some regard the two movies have something in common.
Not directly, but Neill likes a certain 'grounded, gritty and real' look to the designs in the film so a similar aesthetic carries over through all his films.Submit Comment

3Par Beats Despite Sales Shortfall
(PAR - Get Report) beat Wall Street's estimates in its first quarter results Monday, despite weakening demand for its products. 3Par reported revenue of $44.5 million after market close, up from $43 million in the same period last year, and just above analysts' estimate of $44.4 million.Excluding items, the storage firm posted flat earnings on net income of $41,000, compared to 3 cents a share and net income of $2 million in the year-ago quarter. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters had forecast a loss of 1 cent a share. Including items, 3Par lost 3 cents a share on a net loss of $1.8 million, thanks to a stock-based compensation charge, compared to earnings of 1 cent a share and net income of $678,000 in the prior year's quarter. 3Par had originally forecast revenue between $48 million and $50 million, although this was revised down to between $44.2 million and $44.5 million, partly thanks to weak demand. "Though disappointed by our revenue shortfall against expectations, we are pleased that we grew year-over-year in a difficult economic climate and that we continued to take market share," said David Scott, the 3Par CEO, in a statement. 3Par, which competes with EMC (EMC - Get Report) and IBM (IBM - Get Report), is seen as well-positioned for the shift towards cloud computing, which will force users to drive more efficiency out of their servers and storage. The Silicon Valley-based firm is a pioneer in thin provisioning, which allocates storage only when it is needed in an attempt to boost utilization rates.FREMONT, Calif. -- Storage specialist 3Par

The Old Hags Thread: the Third Time's the Charm!
Kinda odd that he will be claiming it is "his turn to pick" yet not telling you what name he wants. Like he is planning for the start of the discussion to happen when you are in the hospital holding your LO. No thanks lol.
Thank you :)

It's all fun and games til someone gets pregnant. http://www.babynames.com/namelist/9773195
Yay! I'm glad the hags like Luke Alan =D

The ratio in our family is 5 girls/then this baby boy. First grandson. He's already spoiled.
OK Hags new question. Lucky got me thinking about this with all of the Florida Beach talk.
How many of you would be willing to strut your hugely pregnant selves out on a beach in a bikini? Do you think it is appropriate for a woman that is very pregnant to wear a bikini and would you do so yourself?
Haha, I feel like I've succeeded in a finding a nice classic name. The hags have given me a stamp of approval.
Yeah, he is the first grandson, great-grandson, and nephew in 30 years. I have two laundry baskets of stuff already downstairs. I really need to start on the nursery...haha
lindsay | mom to luke 8.19.12
LOL My boys are both summer babies and I rocked a bikini 9 months pregnant.I couldn't stand wet tight spandex on my belly...no one piece for me!
