The pain of war has become too much for these men. Wrapped in blankets, they have retreated into themselves. Vulnerable and
haunted by demons, they are the uncounted casualties of decades of war.
I was covering the war that erupted between the militias after the Russians withdrew from Afghanistan, photographing the aftermath of an attack on Kabul when, without warning another rocket attack began. I took cover in what turned out to be a hospital for the insane. Its residents were the victims of decades of war – both civilians and soldiers. There were no doctors or nurses, no electricity, no running water. The smoke from the fire of a makeshift kitchen blackened the ceilings and walls. The men and women there wandered around, or sat in a catatonic stupor.
Photographers work in metaphors, trying to distill experience in pictures. The scenes inside these hospitals get closer to showing the tragedy of the war than those of destroyed cities.
The rationale for the mission has lurched from one thing to another. Officials in Washington and in Kabul all try to explain what we are trying to accomplish. We have been told it is to keep the streets safe in America from Al Qaeda. It has been said that we are there to give breathing room to the Afghan government to build up their own forces. We hear that we are there to help build Afghan institutions so that the country can have a civil society with good governance.
The Century Foundation, a non-partisan research institute, has called on all sides of the conflict to enter into peace talks. Lakhdar Brahimi, former UN Special representative for Afghanistan, has co-chaired a special task force with former undersecretary for political affairs Thomas Pickering. Their recommendations are clear and blunt: it is time to stop deluding ourselves that there will be a clear victory in this war. The report, Negotiating Peace, was published this week.
Executive Summary Chapter One
Afghanistan has been at war for more than thirty years, and for nearly a decade, the international community has supported the country's political, social, and economic reconstruction—and opposed the return to power of the Taliban. Afghans have seen many improvements over that decade, yet the resurgence of the Taliban across much of the country underscores that they are undeniably a force in Afghan society whose exclusion entails a very high cost. A majority of the Afghan people seem anxious for the contending factions to achieve a negotiated end to the war.
There will never be a time when we can achieve an historic battlefield victory and declare that the war is won. Tribal groups will always vie for power. Religious groups will always believe that the right way is only "their" way. Women will always have to fight for their rights.
Wars end with political settlements, and it seems clear to many, if not most, that this war will have no winner. Decades of war have been tragic for the Afghan people and the generations of children who have lost their childhoods, their limbs, and their lives. It's time to see if negotiations can do what shooting could not.

In the early 1900's Leo Baekeland developed the first fully synthetic artificial plastic as a substitute for ivory in billiard balls. Baekeland's discovery was a phenolic resin which he named "Bakelite". Bakelite was not explosive or flammable, it was easy to work with, and more importantly, its playing characteristics were very similar to ivory. Finally, after many years the billiard industry and the billiard playing public had a substitute that most felt was on a par with ivory. Bakelite became widely used world-wide as an ivory substitute and was advertised as "the material of a thousand uses". Elephants everywhere breathed a sigh of relief. Today 80% of the world's pool balls are manufactured in Belgium by a company named Saluc, their products are sold under the Aramith and Crystalate (snooker) brands.

BELLAIRE - Saying the late Dave Ice was a track and field junkie isn't crediting the longtime Bellaire assistant coach's affection for the oval sport nearly enough.
He would have been especially proud as yet another Dave Ice Girls Invitational, which is sponsored by Burger King and the Bellaire Sports Foundation, was held under chilly, but dry conditions at Nelson Field.
Steubenville Catholic mustered 106 points and fended off Wheeling Park by 14 to win the meet title in what is, for most, the final girls' tuneup of the season before the OVAC Track and Field Championship opens Monday at St. Clairsville.
The Crusaders got off and running with a victory in the high jump. Moriah Vosteen claimed the title with a 5-foot clearance.
Steubenville Catholic's foursome of Kate Wilson, Alexis Mastrioanni, Suzy Thibault and Molly Marrow posted a time of 10:50.5 to win the 3200 relay.
The Crusaders' final victory came in the 100-meter dash thanks to Taylor Zapolnik, who sprinted a 13.1.
Wheeling Park, which didn't send its full roster, still managed to capture two events. The team of Chloe Robb, Tamara Bumgardner, Nakysha McGhee and Jaiehir Jackson-Hawkins joined speed forces for a 51.7 to win the 400 relay.
The Park team of Kayley Miller, Tamara Bumgardner, Cristin Dolan and Makayla Gray joined forces to skim 40 timbers in 67.8 for a victory in the shuttles.
St. John Central led the meet with four victories. Freshman phenom Jessica Alvey won the 400-meter dash in a time of 60.0. Sophomore Fallon Doyle ran two laps in 2:23.6 for the 800 crown.
In the 3200 meter run, Kaitlyn Santinoceto posted a 12:57.1 for the victory.
With Alvey chasing down a Steubenville Catholic sprinter, the Irish posted a 4:18.1 to win the 1600 relay. Also on the squad were Emily LeMasters, Doyle and Marissa Rose.
Steubenville Big Red was led by high-point track scorer Toshchel Demus, who posted a 16.0 in winning the high hurdles.
Big Red's team of Nyasha Jones, Lysiah Rice, Cierra Macon and Demus posted a 1:53.3 en route to victory in the 800 relay.
River senior Cassidy McCullough had a limited night's work, competing in just two events. The reigning Division III state low hurdle champion stayed unblemished in her specialty, posting an impressive 46-flat to win the lows.
Bridgeport sophomore Briana Massey won a pair of golds. She got her afternoon started with a personal and school-record mark of 16-4 in the long jump. It was only Massey's second time to compete in the long jump.
Later, she captured the 200-meter dash in a time of 27.3.
Bellaire senior Myleah Green and Barnesville frosh Shayla Markovich shared the high-point field award. Each totaled 18 points. Green won the shot put (34-4) and finished second in the discus. Markovich, meanwhile, won the discus at 98 feet and finished second in the iron-ball event.
Shadyside's lone victory came in the 1600 meter run. Ohio University-bound Tara Tollett won the four-lap race by nearly 37 full seconds. She crossed at 5:26.8.
Martins Ferry, which sent just two competitors, finished with 14 points. Of those, senior standout Courtney Crolley once again prevailed in her specialty. She won the pole vault with a clearance of 9-6.

Randolph County State Recreation Area
is a mecca for outdoor recreational activities. Fishing, hiking, picnicking,
boating, hunting and camping are just a few of the choices, keeping
even the most outdoorsman content on 1,101 acres. Located 5 miles
northeast of Chester in Randolph County, it lies in the rolling hill
country of southern Illinois. Offering a cool retreat from hot summer
days, well shaded picnic areas, hiking trails and scenic forest stands
await park visitors. Theres a diverse offering at beautiful
Randolph County State Recreation Area.
In 1958, land was purchased and plans started to build a dam and spillway for a 65-acre lake. The lake was completed
in 1961 and since that time, recreational facilities have been added to
provide picnic shelters, toilets, a boat ramp and a concession stand.
Randolph County Lake is a clear-water lake stocked with channel
catfish, redear and bluegill sunfish, walleye, saugeye and rainbow trout.
Game fish such as largemouth bass, green sunfish, bullhead and crappie
also can be found so no angler should be disappointed. Boat motors are limited to 10 HP.
The area is renowned for its wooded areas
and abundance of songbirds and wildlife. Hikers on the trail may see
woodpeckers, hawks, turkeys, deer, squirrels and waterfowl as they wind
through woods and open fields, and around the lakeshore. An additional 11.6 miles
of horse trails provide riders with the same panorama of sights and
Fifty-one Class BE campsites, 95 Class C campsites, an equestrian site with eight stalls for horses, and four Class D (primitive) campsites are available throughout the area. A group
camp area has its own shelter, stone fireplace, electricity and tables.
A wonderful escape from a hot summer
day awaits visitors in any of the six picnic areas. Nestled among hickory,
oak, sweetgum and tulip trees, the picnic areas have shelters, tables,
fire grills, and water fountains. Some of the shelters can be reserved through the site office,
so plan ahead and bring your family and friends.
Lake Hunter Fact Sheet | Randolph
Hunter Fact Sheet
On cold, wintry days, the horse trails
provide a perfect path for cross-country skiing enthusiasts. For nature
observers, winter is a great time to see a variety of wildlife
along the hiking trails and scenic areas.
For those who want additional
nature opportunities, several satellite areas are close by. Turkey
Bluffs State Fish and Wildlife Area is located south of Chester and
features picnic areas with scenic overlooks. Hunting for all species
(statewide regulations apply) is permissible at Turkey Bluffs. Fults Hill
Prairie is located a few miles north of Prairie du Rocher and offers
a spectacular view from the bluff overlooking the Mississippi floodplain. Prairie flowers, soaring eagles and hawks provide a breathtaking
experience. Piney Creek Nature Preserve is one of two locations in the
state that possesses the state-endangered shortleaf pine trees. A hiking trail crosses through
a ravine with steep canyon walls and past a running stream with waterfalls.
This scenic adventure will challenge the most avid hiker. Kidd Lake State
Natural Area also is nearby and provides quiet retreats from daily routine.
All access to the area is from the west entrance off Palestine Rd. Coming
from the North on Route 3 one will turn east on Shawneetown Trail south
of the town of Ellis Grove. At Palestine turn south on Palestine Road
and proceed two miles then turn left at the entrance sign. Coming from
the north on Route 150 turn west on Shawneetown Trail and proceed to
Palestine then turn south on Palestine Road and proceed to the entrance
sign and turn left into the area. Coming from the south from Chester
head north on Palestine Road to the entrance sign and turn right into
the area

Chevrolet C10 Gets Wiring Upgrade - First Things Finished - TechWritten by on September 10, 2010 The C10's Wiring Gets Upgraded To Meet Demand
First Things First was the opening title for this three-part series dealing with cab upgrades and rust prevention, so it only makes sense we wrap up the last installment titled First Things Finished. For those of you that just dropped in, we started on the C10 by sealing the cab and doors with weatherstripping from Brothers. Once we knew the doors weren't going to allow water, dust, or dirt inside the next step was to insulate and soundproof the door shells and inside of the cab with Dynamat Xtreme. Next, a pair of Power Bass 6x9-inch speakers were concealed behind the crossflow ventilation louvers in the doors, and stuffed a set of 73-87.com's 6x9 speaker brackets in the cab corners. (Boom Mats and DynaXorb formed the enclosures.) Then the hand-crank window mechanisms were replaced with Brothers' easy-to-install direct-fit power windows, and the speaker and power-window wires were routed from the doors into the cab.
As soon as the new wires were pulled through we realized the stock C10 fuse block was going to be inadequate to properly handle all of the new demands placed on it. Amongst the new demands was a list full of computers. This list of computers includes the one used to control the '79's Gearstar 4L60E transmission, the Howell Developments' TBI electronic fuel injection conversion kit, and a host of smaller computers such as the one in the Dakota Digital cruise control we installed in a previous issue of CCT. All in all, the roll call of new electrical drains placed on the system includes Brothers power-windows, a Dakota Digital electronic antenna, auto-dimming rearview mirror with compass and outside thermometer, and a Dakota Digital instrument panel. The Clarion head unit relies on four 6x9-inch Power Bass speakers backed up with an ultra-thin Power Bass 12-inch sub enclosure that tucks flush against the cab wall and doesn't restrict full movement of the seat to deliver crystal clear sound. A further drain comes from a 1,600-watt Power Bass ASA6004x amplifier mounted beneath the seat.
The most recent addition is going to be a 60/40-split power bench seat snagged from a '94 Buick Roadmaster Hearse. Back in 2007 when I first bought the '79 in anticipation of increased electrical demands a Painless Performance Power Star high-output alternator engineered to deliver around 14.9-volts at low rpm was the first electrical upgrade I made to the truck. Right off the bat I noticed the Power Star was able to keep up with the truck's air conditioning even while it was idling through heavy stop-and-go traffic. Now that I've gone off the deep end and added just about every power option imaginable once again it's the folks at Painless Performance I looked to, to come up with a solution. Painless' part number 50101, 12-circuit race car fuse block utilized as an auxiliary fuse block makes for a lot better solution than overburdening the stock fuse block with numerous taps, or completely rewiring the truck with a larger-capacity fuse block. In addition to curing the too-many kittens and not enough faucets situation, the Painless Race Car fuse block is equipped with a relay that eliminates spikes in the current flow. Spikes in a vehicle's 12-volt electrical system can raise hell with computers, and make the simplest of problems almost impossible to diagnose. True to how I like to write a tech feature, I zeroed-in on the areas where I think most folks might need a little help, and left the obvious steps to the manufacturer's instruction sheet.

There's a big pile of wires shown here, and not one of them is a wire that originated in the truck's factory wiring. They're all wires that need to be tied into the system.This is the C10's stock fuse block, and it's already been overburdened a little bit with added accessories.The first step to mounting the ultra-thin Power Bass 12-inch subwoofer cabinet was to find the center of the cab, and align the cabinet on center.Next, the mounting brackets included with the sub cabinet were installed. Note how they are marked "vehicle" and "cabinet," indicating how they must be placed.Several pilot holes were drilled and then an equal number of the self-tapping screws included by Power Bass were tightened.These are the type of leads used on the Power Bass 6x9-inch speakers. The smaller lead, on the left, has a black stripe indicating that it is the negative lead.The speaker wires to the sub cabinet were stripped as shown, and then the negative lead was pushed into the black, and the positive lead into the red to obtain correct speaker polarity.
This is the computer used to manage the Gearstar 4L60E transmission. The Gearstar computer is very light and only required sharing one mounting screw with the Power Bass mounting brackets.To ensure no exhaust fumes or rainwater would be able to leak into the cab, the wiring was sealed up with a silicone sealant.Notice how the Gearstar computer was pinned into the corner allowing it to be affixed with only screw.Once all of the speaker wires were connected they were grouped in a Teflon lined sheath and routed to the Power Bass amplifier.The best electrical tape money can buy to produce a super clean job is professional grade 3M Super 33+. A single-edge razor blade makes a clean cut without stretching the tape.To prevent any chance of the bare positive terminal screws shorting-out on the Power Bass 1,600-watt amplifier speaker wire connections, we used 33+ to cover the leads.The input and output RCA leads to the Power Bass amplifier are easily identified with red and white markings.With the amplifier and speakers wired, the next operation was to locate an out of the way spot to mount the Painless auxiliary fuse block. It was determined the best spot was on the passenger side adjacent the glovebox.
Here's a view of the Painless fuse block mounted inside the dashboard along side of the glovebox. Note that we left the wires long enough that the fuse block could be withdrawn from its mounting position for servicing without disconnecting any wires.The supply wire (Red) for the Painless fuse block was routed through the firewall on the passenger side and run to the positive post on the truck's battery.For the Painless fuse block's 12-volt supply wire an eye terminal with a hole large enough to clear the 3/8-inch battery bolt was connected with two other leads (One provides 12-volt current to an LMC Heavy-Duty light relay kit).To finish off installing Brothers direct-fit power-windows we needed to modify the window crank hole in the stock C10 door panel to install the power window switch.A Sharpie was used to trace around the profile of the window switch to indicate how big the square needed to be made for the switch.
Viewing Brothers power window switch from the front proves the special attention heeded paid off with perfect installation results.The stock '79 C10 radio antenna is a super-clean (notice the black nub) windshield contained design that worked well and meant a hole didn't have to be cut in the fender to mount a conventional antenna.Not wanting to lose this feature should the windshield need to be replaced, we opted for a Dakota Digital electronic antenna that amplifies the radio signal while it eliminates the need for an ugly conventional antenna.The Dakota Digital electric antenna plugs into the radio exactly as the original antenna lead did, and then the 12-volt lead was connected to the fuse block's switched side.Noting the front 60/40 power-seat in my '93 Buick Roadmaster wagon is way more comfortable than a stock C10 bench, I measured it for width and depth to see if I could swap one into my '79.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida officials are cracking down on fraud in the food stamp program through a new system that verifies client's identities before an application is processed.
Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater said Wednesday that more than $100 million was lost to fraud in the food stamp program from 2010 to 2011.
Department of Children and Families employees who administer the program will now use the same technology as banks to verify an individual's identity. This includes asking questions about the recipient's financial history and residence.
Food stamps are delivered through electronic debit cards.
The agency is also monitoring social media sites like Craigslist to stop people from buying and selling the debit cards.
Other steps include monitoring multiple requests for replacement cards and automatically closing certain cases when benefits expire.

About This Product
While developing a collection of ʻscent studies' on one aromatic note, DSH chose spikenard, an ancient root used extensively in early Egyptian perfumes, as a focus. Spikenard, a botanical relative to valerian, is used to soothe, relax and bring one into a meditative realm. When mixed with incense resins and spices it is truly intoxicating. An equally suitable fragrance for a man or a woman, Arome d'Egypte brings you back to the seductive world of the Ancients. Arome d'Egypte Perfume has adapted early Egyptian fragrance styles and aromatic notes into a modern fragrance in the French perfume tradition.

May 25, 2016
Thomasville, GA- Thomas County Sheriff's Deputies say they made only one DUI arrest over the New Years holiday travel period. A number they say they're pleasantly surprised by.
"Makes you feel good that you don't have to make these arrests," said Captain Steve Jones. "The best jail to run is an empty jail and of course society won't allow us to do that, but it's really great that we did not have anymore than the one."
Sheriff's Deputies aren't the only ones reporting safer roads this New Years, State Troopers in Thomasville say they also made fewer DUI arrests compared to other years.
They say it appears drivers are finally taking their warnings seriously and thinking twice before they get behind the wheel after a night of drinking.
Despite the decrease locally, Georgia State Patrol reported an increase statewide.
Numbers released Wednesday show that between 6 p.m. on Friday and midnight Tuesday 321 people were arrested on DUI charges .
262 people were arrested for impaired driving during last years period.
"Our guys are going to be out working as they do 365 days a year," Jones said. "We're not out head hunting, we're not going to be out with extra patrols just to work DUIs. We're going to work the way that
we always work Thomas County and we did, and it was a safe New Years and hopefully we're going to have a safe 2013."
According to a report by Georgia State Patrol, six people lost their lives in fatal car wrecks this holiday period. It's one less fatality than last year.

Brian Tumulty and Malia Rulon Herman, Gannett Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON - The House passed a $50.7 billion disaster relief bill for victims of Hurricane Sandy on Tuesday, 78 days after the storm began pounding the Northeast.
Lawmakers voted 241-180 to approve the final bill, which includes $17 billion in emergency spending and another $33.7 billion in an amendment from Republican Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen of New Jersey.
"People are hurting," Frelinghuysen told lawmakers on the House floor. "The suffering and damage are real and their needs are great."
The Oct. 29 storm killed more than 100 people in 10 states 41 in New York City alone and wiped out entire communities in coastal New York and New Jersey.
Republican Rep. Chris Smith of New Jersey said more than 22,000 homes were destroyed in his state, and people "desperately need help."
The bill approved Tuesday includes $16 billion in Community Development Block Grant money critical for rebuilding, $10.9 billion for public transportation projects, and $5.4 billion for U.S. Army Corps of Engineers projects. It also includes $11.5 billion for the Federal Emergency Management Agency's disaster relief fund.
Other successful amendments to the bill would require FEMA to identify the recipients of all disaster relief grants and would prohibit the federal government from using the aid to acquire more land.
Democratic Rep. Nita Lowey of New York said Northeast residents have waited far too long for Congress to act.
"Sandy devastated the Northeast and is one of the most costly natural disasters in our nation's history," she said. "It is imperative that we pass this package today."
The House bill, combined with the $9.7 billion the House and Senate approved Jan. 4 to help storm victims pay flood insurance claims, brings the total amount of House-passed Sandy aid to $60.4 billion.
That's the same amount the Senate approved last year before the 112th Congress disbanded.
House members from storm-battered states hope the Senate will act quickly to approve the aid when it returns from recess next week after President Barack Obama's inauguration.
The aid legislation faced opposition from House Republicans who wanted to offset it by cutting federal spending elsewhere. But a 258-member majority voted to reject a proposal by Republican Rep. Mick Mulvaney of South Carolina to cut all federal discretionary programs by 1.6 percent. Mulvaney's measure got 162 votes.
Northeast lawmakers decried the effort, saying Congress has never required disaster aid to be offset by spending cuts.
"To my colleagues... who have decided that we need to change the rules of the game, shame on you," Republican Rep. Frank LoBiondo of New Jersey said on the House floor. "Florida, good luck with no more hurricanes. California, congratulations, did you get rid of the (San) Andreas fault? The Mississippi is in a drought. You think you're not going to have a flood again? Who are you going to come to when you have these things?"
Republican Rep. Peter King of Long Island, N.Y., who had angrily attacked his own party for failing to approve Sandy aid in the last Congress, sounded a less combative note on Tuesday.
King noted that action on Sandy aid was delayed partly because governors in storm-battered states spent 30 days compiling detailed lists of aid needs, and the White House spent several weeks reviewing those lists.
"The time for recriminations is over,'' King said. "Let's stand together as Americans.''
Historically, congressional votes on federal disaster have not been partisan or even controversial. But Republican conservatives have balked at the size of the aid package.
The conservative Club for Growth had urged lawmakers to oppose the aid. There's no mechanism to pay for the aid money or make sure it's spent well, and the aid legislation is stuffed with unnecessary projects, the group said.
But Republican Rep. Tom Cole of Oklahoma said his state has benefited from federal disaster relief in the past particularly after the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 and failing to support the Sandy aid would by hypocritical.
"We have a national interest in getting this region back on its feet as quickly as possible, not only because it's the right thing to do, and it certainly is that, but because it's the smart thing to do,'' Cole said. "Over 13 percent of our citizens live in the four most affected states that were damaged by Hurricane Sandy, and collectively they produce over 17 percent of the wealth of this country. Having that area up, operational and prosperous is critical to the prosperity of the entire country.''

Week 3: Nynaeve vs. Lanfear
Posted 29 January 2012 - 02:40 PM
Write-up by: Despothera
The Contestants
Nynaeve al'Meara
Age: late 20s
Race: Human
Weapon: the One Power
Special: Set of ter'angreal jewelry that bestow awesome effects
Age: Several Centuries
Race: Human
Weapon: the One Power
Special: Age of Legends knowledge
The Breakdown
Nynaeve: immense strength in the One Power, indomitable will, quick learner
Lanfear: unequaled strength and skill in using saidar, highly capable in Tel'aran'rhiod
Nynaeve: has the self-control of a two-year-old, recklessness
Lanfear: overly confident, generally dismissive of most other female channelers
How we think the fight will go:
Lanfear strode purposefully through the courtyard, glancing about in a furtive manner. She knew that stasis box had to be around here somewhere. The Friend of the Dark that she tortured to find out its location told her exactly where she would be able to find it; she knew he would have just as quickly told her where and how she could find and kill any one of his family, considering the treatment she had given him.
In the back of her head, she knew the real reason she had been so brutally efficient in his questioning. The fight she had just had with the old, graying grandmother of so-called Aes Sedai had tested her far more than it should have. That old bat had had more tricks up her sleeves than Lanfear would have thought. To think that all of her plans had almost come to naught due to some old maid who thought she could take on one of the Chosen!
Lanfear cursed at herself for letting her thoughts drift to that fight again. Every time she thought of it her blood started to boil anew. She calmed herself down in moments, her mask suddenly the picture of cold calculation. Soon, she would find that stasis box. Inside she would no doubt find some kind of object that would help give her an advantage, were she to meet another skilled channeler in battle again. A severe grimace crossed Lanfear's face as she thought of how that sounded. The idea that she, one of the Chosen, would have to scrape for some angreal or ter'angreal just because she had run into some light-blinded fool with a paralis-net!
Lanfear put aside the thoughts that once again had her nearly fuming. Suddenly, she felt a strange feeling, as if she were being watched. She realized with self-scolding fury that she had had the feeling for some time, but had ignored it because she had been thinking of that encounter once again. Glancing around with a paranoid eye, she did a slight double-take when she saw the young woman crouching several paces away.
Realizing who it was, Lanfear embraced saidar with a frenzied rush.
Nynaeve gripped her braid harder, cursing inwardly. She knew Lanfear couldn't have seen her sneaking up on her; she was too careful for that! Looking the Daughter of the Night in the eyes, she stood straighter and let herself fill with as much saidar as she could draw. The ring ter'angreal she was wearing helped her locate the Forsaken, after it alerted her to the channeling in the first place.
She kept the ter'angreal activated nearly all the time now; it had the ability to alert her to the presence of anyone who channeled either saidar or saidin. It came as part of a set of ter'angreal jewelry and was connected to the bracelet by a fine gold chain. Nynaeve had felt slightly uncomfortable with it for a time, not used to wearing gaudy jewelry, but after growing comfortable with the different abilities the items conferred, she had no problem using them to help her track down and kill possible threats to Rand.
As soon as she saw the glow of saidar surround the other woman, multiple weaves began springing up around the Forsaken, almost more than she could keep track of, and almost any of them could kill her were they to hit their target. Nynaeve activated the bracelet ter'angreal now, and an armor tougher and more resilient than steel suddenly encased her skin. Nynaeve knew the armor would help deflect some of the more benign physical attacks from Lanfear, so she could focus on countering some of the more subtle ones directed at her mind and spirit.
She fended off what seemed like a storm of separate attack weaves, not being able to spare a moment for anything other than dodging and cutting separate flows. The attack continued in a frenetic effort on Lanfear's part, and by the set look on her face, she would not relent anytime soon.
Each weave that Nynaeve successfully cut sent a small tremor through Lanfear's features, but the Age of Legends channeler had far too much control to let that affect her weaving. Nynaeve started to sense a feeling from the attacks, a kind of panicked frenzy to them. The barrage continued, though, and Nynaeve knew if she kept trying to fend them all off she would soon become too exhausted to channel. Diving behind a small column, she wove a gateway to right behind where Lanfear was standing, running through it with all abandon.
The second she came out from the other side, however, she was instantly met with the oncoming path of a fireball headed straight for her. She was able to let her momentum carry her almost beyond the attack, and her armor absorbed the rest, but she still ended up hitting the ground hard, with her green silk dress smoldering.
She beat at her dress savagely, cursing the thin fabric of it. I wouldn't have to worry about my clothing catching fire if I was wearing some good stout Two Rivers wool! she thought while continuing to beat at the small fires on herself. Suddenly, she swiveled her head back around to face Lanfear. She realized with a sick feeling in her stomach that she was shielded.
She saw a smile begin to emerge on Lanfear's face, a triumphant and playful smile aimed to strike fear into Nynaeve. Instead Nynaeve drew from her belt ter'angreal, which contained a stored up well of saidar that she now used to blast Lanfear with a solid thick weave of Air. Lanfear was sent rocketing back to collide into a wall, and looked like she was momentarily dazed.
Knowing she had but little time to try and press the advantage, Nynaeve began preparing a weave of balefire to take out the little milk-faced vixen once and for all. She bared her teeth as she unleashed the weave which headed straight for the fallen Forsaken.
Lanfear dove aside just as a bar of molten hot white metal shot through the air beside her, shooting through where she had just been and taking out several pieces of architecture behind her with it. The balefire stream continued, and began to hone in on her like a hawk seeking its prey. Lanfear continued sprinting about, drawing open a gateway as fast as she could to get away from the terrible weave.
As soon as she came out the other side however, the stream quickly corrected its path and headed straight for her, making her have to scurry away again as fast as she could. Briefly her mind went back to the scene near Aridhol, when she had been unable to do much more than escape with her life, much less stop Rand and this little chit from cleansing saidin. Dismissing the memory with a bitter fury, she sprinted once again around another corner and began to weave another gateway.
Instead of going through it, however, she went around it and ducked down. The balefire stream shot past her and winked out briefly, but as she glanced up for a moment she saw Nynaeve searching the columns predatorily. Lanfear began preparing more offensive weaves, taking care this time to invert them and hide her channeling, but the second she started weaving Nynaeve spun around and unleashed another stream of balefire straight at her.
Once again forced to flee, the Daughter of the Night began coordinating a different strategy. Thinking fast, she spun a gateway to the world of dreams, Tel'aran'rhiod, where she could use the environment against this little upstart brat of an Aes Sedai.
As soon as she had stepped through the gateway, she began preparing her ambush. With a thought, she changed her appearance to that of an old hag and began to set up a couple of choice weaves to direct at the Aes Sedai as soon as she stepped through. Just as she thought she would, the young female channeler stepped through and hurriedly began looking around for her. Lanfear began setting off her weaves, and watched with cold fury as they were both negated by the strange armor the young girl seemed to be wearing.
Nynaeve spun around immediately, and Lanfear felt the new flows she had been weaving become cut apart and rebound back into her. Lanfear considered weaving her own balefire weave, then thought again of why she had brought this fight back to the world of dreams. Not bothering to finish the weave, Lanfear instead focused her mental focus on Nynaeve now, and began to think of Nynaeve as very slow-witted and forgetful.
In moments, Nynaeve's jaw suddenly started to go slack, and she assumed a dead eyed stare in her eyes as her arms fell to her side. The second Lanfear was able to, she slammed a shield down on Nynaeve, and continued to exert her will upon the defenseless channeler. She now imagined Nynaeve to be in increasing discomfort and pain, and began planning how she would use this one against Rand. She knew this girl was close to Rand; she would make a fine instrument to carry out Lanfear's revenge.
That would be later, however. Much later. First Lanfear would carefully select a long and particularly inventive punishment for the fool who thought she could take on one of the Chosen and live to tell the tale. Lanfear began searching her mind for the most dastardly weaves she knew.
Nynaeve's mind was blank, even though a second before she had been crafting the flows that would ensnare Lanfear once again. She felt like she had just been able to do something important, but before she could finish the attack, she suddenly lost all track of who and where she was. Seconds later, pain began to wrack her body, but she was unable to figure out why, or how. She struggled to even remember what she had been in the middle of, thinking it had something to do with Rand.
Who was Rand? A thought started to emerge in her mind, but before it could her mind went blank again. Her body started to convulse slightly due to the painful tremors shooting through her body, and she once again attempted to gather her thoughts. It seemed an impossible task; she was barely able to focus on anything for even brief moments before a fog would suddenly disrupt her mind.
The word came with an image, this one slightly clearer than any other images she had tried to focus on around her. The image seemed to sprout strange feelings inside her; one moment filling her with joy, the next ultimate sadness. A stern face that looked to have little room for a smile suddenly sprouted one, and Nynaeve knew it was meant for her. I...know this man, she thought hazily, using every ounce of effort she had left to focus on this one image.
Lan. Lan Mandragoran. A warrior, and a fine one indeed. But he was in trouble, and he...he was...he was her husband! She could not fail him, she could not leave him to the fate he had carved for himself. Only one person could prevent that fool man from meeting his death so willingly, and that person was Nynaeve.
Nynaeve's eyes suddenly narrowed with determination, and after another couple of moments she looked around her with a grim countenance on her face. She saw Lanfear only a couple of paces from her, and back in her usual form. The Forsaken was facing the other way from her and had a calculating look on her face.
As Nynaeve strode a quick couple paces towards Lanfear, not seeing her dress change into a full set of battle armor that looked to be fashioned in the style of a Two Rivers dress, Lanfear spun around as just as Nynaeve was right in front of her, and surprise started to blossom on the Daughter of Night's face, but Nynaeve's hands were already raising together. A sword suddenly appeared in those hands, and she swung with all her might.
Teeth clenched together, Nynaeve felt little resistance as the heavy shortsword separated Lanfear's head from its shoulders to land several feet away with a sickening splat. Nynaeve stood there holding the sword for another few moments, breathing heavily and shivering slightly, before she finally regained her composure.
She looked around again as if suddenly realizing where she was, and got a disgusted look on her face. She didn't remember much of what those white-haired women with Egwene had told her about this place, but she did remember that it was supposed to be evil to come in the flesh. Dismissing the sword and armor, she wove a gateway and stepped through, giving the headless body of the Forsaken one more glance before closing the gateway.
Predicted Winner: Nynaeve
You have until Saturday, February 4th at 9:00 p.m. PST to vote.

I vote Nyneave if we go with the present (so to speak) of Nyneave vs. Cyndane (who is weaker) but I would have to vote Lanfear if we went with original strength Lanfear due to strength and experience.
It was Lanfear against Cadsuane, not Cyndane, so it'll probably be the same here. That said Cyndane is nearly as strong as she was as Lanfear. She's still stronger than Greandal for example. Definitely stronger than Nyneave.
I think one of the reasons the Black Tower has become so popular in fandom isn't just that you get to dress in black and set fires with your mind, it's the sense of struggle the Asha'man have. To save the world, they have to embrace the part of themselves that's terrible and destructive. They risk madness to learn how to channel. It's a tremendous sacrifice they make.

If Moridin is kicking Logain's butt, why isn't Lanfear doing the same to Nyneave? The matches are quite similar.
Because it's also a popularity contest in some degree.

For some people, yes. For others, no. This is why Lan and Fain have been neck and neck most of the time. People who want the most realistic person will choose Fain, and the people who really want Lan to win will try to rationalize it (IMO). Here, 2/3 have chosen Nynaeve, including myself. Honestly, I chose Lanfear for the first but Nynaeve for this, and Moridin for both. The reason for these:
1)Only Moridin would use the TP willingly since most of the Forsaken are afraid to use it most of the time. To further this point, Moghedien didn't use the TP the whole time she was trapped in the A'dam when she still had access to it.
2)Nynaeve is not only a little stronger in the power than Cadsuane, but quite a bit. Moiraine, shortly after the events of NS, became the 2nd strongest channeler alive, second only to Cadsuane (based on what Cadsuane told Moiraine in her short appearance in NS). Elayne is currently quite a bit stronger than Moiraine, and she is still getting stronger. Egwene has reached her maximum potential, and is reasonably stronger than Elayne. Nynaeve should be (by now) as strong or stronger than Egwene, and maybe still growing. It has been stated that she, upon reaching her potential, is stronger than Egwene. Going by this, she should be about 20-30% stronger than Cadsuane, while Lanfear would have been maybe 50% stronger than Cadsuane. That being said, Lanfear is still stronger, but just not enough to assure certain victory.
3)Nynaeve has more experience with Forsaken than Cadsuane. Cadsuane's only experience is with Semirhage, whom she only confronted once, while Nynaeve spent the better part of half a year with a Forsaken. She battled with Moghedien multiple times and had control of her for months. Nynaeve seems the logical choice, since although inexperienced, she seems to think more clearly under pressure than people seem to think she does, especially after breaking her Block. Even though Lanfear is pre-LOC, it doesn't seem fair to power down Nynaeve, so it should be post-TOM Nynaeve vs. pre-LOC Lanfear. In this scenario, it just seems logical that Nynaeve should win.
Sorry for such a long post.

Alivia is "considerably stronger" than Nynaeve. The way the Sea Folk said this and what Nyaneve thought (PoV), that whatever she does Alivia will overwhelm her. So even holding the OP, Alivia would shield her.
Implies that Alivia is "very much stronger" than Nyaneve.
Cyndane is "weaker than Lanfear" according to Messana...implies that Lanfear was stronger. Cyndane is stronger than Grandael.
Lanfear >= Alivia.
Without the angreal and Fox head medallion, Nyaneve is TOAST. With them, she can defeat Lanfear.
Alivia had trouble even with an angreal because she is all offense.

I'll assume that this is pre-twisted door way as Cyndane is not as powerful as she was as Lanfear. That being said, while the al'Meara girl would probably have her roots pulled out, if she did'nt get torched in the first couple of exchanges she would be able to throw what she saw right back at Lanfear, knowing any weave seen but one time. That would be a shock to the Daughter of Night ! This would probably come down to fist-a-cuffs as they are so evenly matched and that edge goes to...Nynaeve al'Meara. She'll "box her ears till...well they ache"
You are correct. Messana said she is "weaker" than Lanfear. However, Cyndane is "stronger" than Grandael (I believe in book 8 or 9, when Moggy+Cyndane visited Grandael).
Lanfear > Cyndane > Grandael > Nynaeve >=Semirhage > Messana > Moghdien
Only woman who might be as strong as Lanfear is Alivia, described in book 9 as being "considerably stronger" than Nyaneve.
Nynaeve PoV it said Alivia would "overwhelm" her whatever she did. Keep in mind that Nyaneve could not overwhelm Elayne in book 7 (Elayne was holding the Power, Nynaeve was unable to shield her).
Fortunately Nyaneve has an angreal+Fox head, Nynaeve+angreal > Lanfear.

Is Nynaeve actually any good on a magic combat level? She is like Aginor; strong in the One Power but her abilities are focused on other areas then just fighting. Lanfear would have access to various weaves and whatnot that Nynaeve would never have heard of. Look at Lanfear on the docks with her fateful encountr with Moiraine; she was destroying everyone, no one could do a thing against her. And sure, she has lost a bit of strength but not enough to make that much of a difference, and she still has the knowledge. Alivia is probably Rands strongest female fighter channeling wise, who has 400+ years of being honed into a weapon. Cyndane still injured her. Nynaeve has what... 5ish years of... healing?
This is an absolute no contest. taking popularity out of it, Lanfear would destroy Nynaeve. Nynaeve may be stubborn, but that doesnt help when being pummeled with spells you have no knowledge of and no way to counter. I am stubborn to, but I wouldnt have been to take on Bruce Lee at his prime.
Might as well ask who would win a fight between Damer Flinn and Rand.

Nynaeve beat Lanfear? Seriously?

You can take Bruce Lee past his prime?
As for the fight, I think Lanfear would beat Nyneave as well. It wouldn't be simple considering Nyneave has a few objects of power, but I would still bet on Lanfear seeing how much knowledge and experience she has. And if Greandal was willing to use the TP, I don't see why Lanfear wouldn't be willing to use it just to take out Nyneave, whose foxhead-like terangreal will not defend her against the TP. Moridin is going to win this in the end anyway.

GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. - Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe spent some time in the national spotlight Friday and not for his football skills.
The 30-year-old punter, entering his eighth season with the Vikings, wrote a letter for deadspin.com Friday in which he directly addressed a Maryland lawmaker who criticized a Baltimore Ravens player for donating tickets to a fundraiser supporting gay marriage.
Friday night, Kluwe sat down with KARE 11's Julie Nelson to explain his letter and why he responded to the situation.
Last week, Maryland state lawmaker Emmett C. Burns wrote a letter to the owner of the Ravens which started by saying, "As a Delegate to the Maryland General Assembly and a Baltimore Ravens Football fan, I find it inconceivable that one of your players, Mr. Brandon Ayanbadejo, would publicly endorse Same-Sex marriage, specifically, as a Raven Football player."
Kluwe responded by writing, in part, "I find it inconceivable that you are an elected official of Maryland's state government. Your vitriolic hatred and bigotry make me ashamed and disgusted to think that you are in any way responsible for shaping policy at any level."
Kluwe's letter, which went viral Friday afternoon, included language not fit for kare11.com. His letter - again, which does contain graphic language - can be read on deadspin.com.
Kluwe also appeared on The Ed Show on MSNBC Friday night to talk about his letter.
