Chapter Thirteen
" Sorry but do I know you?" Shaurya asked
Anjali felt a deep disappointment on hearing that he didn't remember her. He was a person she would never forget. You never forgot some one who brought you back to life.. who taught you to smile, hope and dream. When her leg had been amputated, she had found it hard to accept her handicap but he had convinced her that handicap was only in her mind. He had helped her come out of the depression that had taken hold of her then.
Anjali jolted back to the present realizing that she hadn't answered him. He waited patiently for her to reply as though pleased to just look at her.
"I'm Anjali. Akash's cousin." She replied
"Oh yes of course, Anjali. I tried calling akash to tell him I'm back but his phone was switched off. Where is that cousin of mine?" he asked
"Actually my sister in law is admitted here..." she said matter- of-factly
Something flickered behind his eyes and then it was gone
"Your husband's sister?" he asked quietly
Anjali swallowed at the pain that question caused.
"No arnav's wife." She replied
"Come lets go out for coffee and then you can tell me every thing." he said grabbing her elbow and leading her towards the cafeteria.
Anjali agreed because she knew he was the only person who could help khushi. Now all she had to do was to convince him to stay with them rather than staying at the hotel. As they walked towards a cafe near the hospital, she noticed the female doctors.. nurses.. patients staring at him with admiration trying to catch his attention. But he was oblivious to it and continued talking to Anjali. Another girl purposefully stumbled around him but instead of holding her, Shaurya put his arm in front of Anjali to protect her from the impact. The girl straightened herself in time and walked off shooting draggers at Anjali. They had to stop every five minutes as his old collegues greeted him. Most of them asked him if he was still pining for Avisha.
Avisha? Another mystery. She wondered why she was still so curious about him.
Khushi was discharged late in the evening. Arnav told every one to go home and that he would bring khushi home himself. He then held khushi's hand and looked deeply into her eyes hoping the deep love for her mirrored in his eyes would bring some expression, some emotion in hers. Then, without breaking the eye contact he pulled her up against him. He kept a firm hand around her waist and guided her to the car.
She was still weak and arnav treated her with a gentleness which brought tears to everyone's eyes. Lulled by the motion of the car, khushi immediately fell asleep. Arnav gently pulled her against him and let her rest her head snugly against his chest as they sat on the backseat of his car. On reaching home arnav asked the driver to open the door of the car and carried a sleeping khushi to his room. He laid her on the bed tenderly trying not to awaken her. He sat with her for a long time content to just watch her.
After a while he got up to have a shower. He was tired. He hadn't eaten anything yesterday nor had he slept while fearing for khushi's health. As he dressed and went to his room he was surprised to see payalji sitting on the chair he had vacated.
"Arnavji go down and eat something. You will make yourself sick if you go on like this." She said kindly.
Arnav was surprised. After everything he had done, her family didn't hold it against him.'
"You are not angry with me?" he asked politely
Payal smiled "You are suffering which shows that you didn't do it deliberately. And you both were trying to protect the one you loved. If we hold this against you, Shyam is winning and I don't want that. And besides even buaji said a lot of things to khushi and amma refused to talk to her so even we are to blame."She explained to him everything what buaji said in the hospital.
For a minute arnav felt a flare of temper that they, around whom khushi had grown up had accused her, but it died quickly. He had no right blame them when he had made her life a living hell in the past few months.
"Babuji is recovering. Shauryaji says he will be on his feet soon."
"Shaurya?" he asked confused
"Babuji had fever. Doctors found traces of something in his blood. Shyam's doing. They said he was deliberately giving him slow poison to halt his progress. The moment anjaliji told Shauryaji everything, he thought most of this was triggered with babuji's failing health. He appointed his own team to do the tests again. Shauryaji says babuji's progress will bring khushi back too."
Arnav's mood brightened considerably at the possibility. He hated to admit it but he was grateful to shaurya for his quick thinking. Giving payal a brief smile, he walked downstairs.
As arnav reached the dining room he heard Shaurya telling nani something. The moment di noticed him, she nudged shaurya asking him to be quiet. Every one was eying him nervously. Everyone except Shaurya, who was looking relaxed and calm. Arnav nodded at him and sat down as Anjali served food in his plate.
"As I was saying-,"shaurya continued as if he hadn't interrupted,"- that khushi will be better off at her house with the secure environment of her family. Its not like arnav married her for love.."
Arnav saw red. What the hell did this Shaurya singhania think of himself? Who the hell was he to even talk about sending khushi away or speaking about their relationship.
"Enough!" he said coldly.
"That's what I'm trying to say, its enough." Shaurya said calmly "She has had enough. Her family will take care of her."Shaurya replied
No one dared to talk to arnav singh raizada that way. There was an ominous silence in the room. Every one was holding their breath. He gave a hard stare at Shaurya which would send other men quaking in their shoes but shaurya remained unfazed and glared back at him.
"khushi's family have to look after her ill father. Having khushi will only increase their burden and we can take the best care of her here." He replied sharply.
Shaurya considered his words. He was quiet for a moment but then he spoke the very thing that arnav was dreading.
"Fine but if khushi recovers and she wants out, then you will let her go_"
Arnav felt a sharp pain in his chest at the thought followed by a cold rage. Why was he bent on separating khushi from him? If this man as much as looked at khushi, he would permanently disfigure that handsome face. Let khushi go?
"You have given her nothing but pain" shaurya said
Anjali kept her hand on Shaurya's shoulder to stop him from speaking further but he knew every one agreed with shaurya including di. He got up angrily and pushed his untouched plate away and ignoring di who was asking him to come back, he headed to his room.. to his every smile.. to his life.. to his khushi.
He sat next to her and held her hand. He knew she was asleep, knew she couldn't hear him yet he spoke to her in soft tones, stroking her hair gently... the moment he touched her she awoke and looked at him with blank empty eyes.
"I didn't say sorry did I?" he whispered " Every one apologized for treating you badly but I treated you more badly than any one present. You have every reason to be angry with me khushi. I believed in you too late. What I have done is too big to ask for forgiveness. How can you forgive me when I can't forgive myself? But khushi I beg you please don't punish yourself. Respond khushi, hit me scream at me but please respond. "He begged
But khushi remained unchanged. Still retreated in the same world where no one could reach her. How could he have hurt her so much?
"You will listen to me. Because I dont if I'll ever say this again.. for I might never be this weak again or may be this strong again'' I LOVE YOU
She had meant it then, he realized. She had loved him. And now when he would have happily given up every thing he owned just to get her love him back, it was too late. He wanted to see her laugh, try her mischief, irritate him- anything to bring the old khushi back.
'I will even get out of your life if that is what it will take to make you live again' he thought . 'It will kill me but for you, I will. But I will watch you from far khushi. You will never know that I'm there and I'll be living for that one glimpse of you, if a glimpse is all I can ever have.' And he would survive knowing she was happy and still lived in the same world where he did.

Mahaicony farmer fatally stabbed in row over washroom use
– sister's boyfriend held
A row over the use of the washroom has left a Mahaicony mechanic dead; allegedly stabbed by his sister's lover, who is currently in police custody.
Dead is Alvy Richmond, 52, a mechanic and rice farmer of Lot 10 Strath Campbell, Mahaicony.
Ernestine Richmond, the dead man's mother, told Stabroek News that her son had returned home from work around 5.30 pm yesterday and exclaimed that he needed to use the washroom badly.
Alvy Richmond made a bee line for the washroom, but found the door closed. "He asked, 'Who lock the door? Who in there?'" Ernestine said. His enquiries revealed that his sister's partner was bathing.
Alvy Richmond began to pound anxiously on the door, calling for it to be opened. However, his mother said, the man within responded, "You ain't got no manners? You ain't see I bathing?"
An argument soon ensued between the two men during which Alvy was challenged to "come out on the road and prove yourself."
However, he refused and asked the visitor to his home to leave.
After a few more tense moments, things seemed settled as the visitor left the washroom and Alvy entered to use it, Ernestine said. The calm was short-lived.
"I ain't know when this man put on he clothes, but the next thing I know is Alvy come running up to me with a knife sticking out of he," the mother said. The dead man had sustained a fatal stab to the left side of his chest.
By that time, the attacker had escaped. He was soon caught, though, after residents of the area became aware of the attack through the loud cries emanating from the Richmonds' yard.
He was reportedly cornered in the compound of a nearby school and held until the police arrived. He is currently in police custody.
According to reports, Alvy's sister, who is the accused's partner, and the dead man's 11-year-old daughter, who had witnessed the attack, had been taken in to give statements.
Ernestine is in shock over her son's murder. "My son trusted this man because is he sister fella but they say yuh feed magga dog, he turn back and bite yuh; that's what happened here," she said.
The father of three was described as a peaceful, hardworking, and loving man.

Jump into the Sky
by Shelley Pearsall
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Excellent historical fiction set during WWII for middle school readers.
Another winner from author Shelley Pearsall. It's 1945, and 13 year old Levi, after living three years in Chicago with his aunt, is suddenly sent away by her to live with his father on an Army base in South Carolina. Levi hasn't seen his father in three years, only has the occasional cryptic letter sent from a myriad of Army bases. But Levi is hopeful, despite being very nervous to travel alone for the first time on a train through the segregated South, that his dad will be glad to see him and their relationship will take up right where it left off. Unfortunately, when Levi arrives, his father is gone! Shipped out! The only person still on Base is Cal, a buddy of his dad's whose injury prevented him from shipping with his crewmates. So Levi has to figure out if he can stay here or how he'll find his dad, and is it true what Cal is saying, that Levi's father jumps out of airplanes? Really? An all-African-American paratrooper squadron? Levi's never heard of such a thing!
Based on the true-life stories of the 555th "Triple Nickle" squadron, and full of great period detail, memorable characters, action and humor, told by a warm and funny teen character you'll love to meet. At times this book reminded me of "Bud Not Buddy" by Christopher Paul Curtis, in its tone and the sweet funny nature of Levi.
Falling. The ground so far away it feels like the distance is forever. As your parachute opens you get jolted to a sudden stop. Then you continue to drift down slowly with the farms spread out below you in neat little rows. This is an everyday experience for Levi's dad who is in the colored army during World War 2. Jump Into the Sky is a historical fiction book by Shelley Pearsall. In this book Levi spent 3 years with an aunt on his dad's side of the family before one day she shipped him off to the army base in North Carolina where his dad is working. Levi has a horrible ride on the train learning about what colored people were treated like back then in the south. When he arrives at the army base, he learns that his dad was shipped out to another army base and nobody knows what base that is. This story is about Levi's experiences trying to find out where is dad is, and what it was like for colored people back then.
This book is extremely exciting. I think that the author did a great job making me feel the fear that Levi felt on the train and after learning that his dad had already left the army base. I think that this book would be great for middle schoolers because it has drama but it also has its happy moments. This is a book for anyone who likes to experience what it would be like to have your dad in a war and never know exactly where he is.
I like a little-known historical fiction story as much as the next person, but it was like I kept waiting for the story to get exciting and it kept ALMOST getting exciting, but then meandering away to something else. Levi's voice wasn't strong enough for me to enjoy the book on his character alone and the plot meandered too much to be compelling. Part of my disappointment might be with the cover and title, both of which seem to promise a lot of wartime action, which is not necessarily the fault of the author, but I don't feel like the insides matched. So... it was okay? I think teens who enjoy a more leisurely-paced historical fiction would probably like it, or anyone with a special interest in the lives of African Americans on the WWII homefront.
BUD NOT BUDDY by Christopher Paul Curtis for the historical (1930s) adventures of a young black boy traveling on his own.
FLYGIRL by Sherri Smith for another story about African Americans on the homefront during WWII.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0375836993, Hardcover)Levi Battle's been left behind all his life. His mother could sing like a bird and she flew away like one, too. His father left him with his grandmother so he could work as a traveling salesman—until Levi's grandmother left this world entirely. Now Levi's staying with his Aunt Odella while his father is serving in the U.S. Army. But it's 1945, and the war is nearly over, and Aunt Odella decides it's time for Levi to do some leaving of his own. Before he can blink, Levi finds himself on a train from Chicago to Fayettville, North Carolina, where his father is currently stationed—last they knew.
So begins an eye-opening, life-changing journey for Levi. First lesson: there are different rules for African Americans in the South than there are in Chicago. And breaking them can have serious consequences. But with the help of some kind strangers, and despite the hindrances of some unkind ones, Levi makes his way across the United States—searching for his father and finding out about himself, his country, and what it truly means to belong.
Shelley Pearsall has created an unforgettable character in Levi and gives readers a remarkable tour of 1945 America through his eyes. Jump into the Sky is a tour de force of historical fiction from a writer at the very top of her game.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:24:06 -0400)
In 1945, thirteen-year-old Levi is sent to find the father he has not seen in three years, going from Chicago, to segregated North Carolina, and finally to Pendleton, Oregon, where he learns that his father's unit, the all-Black 555th paratrooper battalion, will never see combat but finally has a mission.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas quarterback Tyler Wilson will make his debut as a starter in the Southeastern Conference when the No. 14 Razorbacks face No. 3 Alabama on Saturday.
Wilson has stepped right in for the departed Ryan Mallett through three nonconference games — competing 68.6 percent of his passes for 274 yards per game. His true test will come on the road in Tuscaloosa against the Crimson Tide (3-0).
Wilson's first hiccup came in the second half last week in Arkansas' 38-28 win over Troy. The junior threw an interception that was returned for a touchdown as the Razorbacks (3-0) went three-and-out four times after building a 31-7 lead.
The performance led to a tough film session for Wilson and his teammates, something Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino expects to help the Razorbacks this weekend.

Making the most of the beautiful weather, a bunch of beautiful celebrities showed up at the Fifth Annual Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic at Will Rogers State Historical Park in Pacific Palisades, California.
Last month, Lauren Conrad threw a big celebration as she married William Tell, and gal pal Lauren "Lo" Bosworth was in the house making memories.
However when it comes to recalling said memorable moments, the "Hills" stunner seems to be having a difficult time.
Last month they tied the knot before heading off on a Sicilian honeymoon and now Lauren Conrad and William Tell are getting used to their new roles as husband and wife.
On Thursday (October 2), the "Hills" starlet showed off a souvenir they got on holiday- a ceramic tile that stated, "Villa Tell" along with a blue tree design.
Now that she's tied the knot with William Tell, Lauren Conrad is excited to start her new family in her gorgeous Beverly Hills penthouse home.
The "Hills" starlet invited InStyle magazine to check out her pad for their October 2014 issue, offering a glimpse of her Parisian boutique-inspired walk-in wardrobe and classy cocktail bar.
It was quite the fairytale affair, and Lauren Conrad has just unveiled a batch of new pictures from her wedding to William Tell.
In the newly-released snapshots, the "Hills" actress looks amazing in her Badgley Mischka gown, embroidered with Alencon lace and embellished with crystals, pearls and glass beads.
They happily tied the knot earlier this month, and now Lauren Conrad and her hubby William Tell are enjoying themselves on a lavish Italian honeymoon.
Earlier this afternoon (September 24), the newly married fashionsita took to her Instagram account to share a couple photos from the stunning trip on the Mediterranean Sea.
Given her background in fashion, Lauren Conrad was very particular about what she would wear to her wedding to William Tell earlier this month.
And it turns out the "Hills" starlet enlisted Mark Badgley and James Mischka to create her wedding gown, going for a "simple and classic yet glamorous" vibe.
Their wedding was a blessed occasion with plenty of love and affection, and Lauren Conrad and William Tell have just released their first photo as husband and wife.
In the new issue of Us Weekly, the "Laguna Beach" babe and her handsome hubby look blissful as they pose for their wedding pictures following the September 13th ceremony on the California coast.

Garibaldi by IvanAndreevichWatch
©2010-2016 IvanAndreevich
Garibaldi Lake is located about half way between Vancouver and Whistler. At the beginning of July, the area from which I took this photo was still covered by over one meter of snow! If you are curious, check out the precise location on Google Maps. The hike there is fairly easy, and it only takes 3 hours of steady, relaxed walking. I would say that this is one of the most accessible beautiful lakes in BC. Interestingly, all the water you see in the photo is part of the lake. The widely varying appearance from the foreground to the background is caused mostly by different depths.

Makayla Norman was 14 years old when she died. She had cerebral palsy and couldn't walk, talk or take care of herself. In 2004, her mother withdrew her from the Dayton Public Schools to homeschool her.
Since 2004, Dayton Public Schools was supposed to track Makayla's homeschooling education.
But the Dayton Daily News reports that "school officials admitted they violated their own policies, failing to follow up on Makayla's progress during her final seven years."
Makayla died of nutritional and medical neglect in March. Her death has been ruled a homicide and her mother and several caretakers have been indicted in connection with her death. From the Dayton Daily News:
When 14-year-old Makayla Norman died March 1, her 28-pound body was infested with lice, covered in bedsores, her skin caked in dirt, according to testimony during a court hearing Tuesday.
[related_content align="right"]When we reported on homeschooling earlier this year, an Ohio Department of Education spokesperson said it's up to local school districts -- not the state -- to work with homeschooling families:
The district does need to know who is living within their district who is of school age. …That's one thing that's important to note and notifying that district to say, 'I have three children but I prefer to homeschool them. And then they can also talk to their district about resources, and that's an important thing as well. But in terms of the oversight that the Ohio Department of Education has, it's very little.
According to the section of the Ohio Administrative Code that deals with homeschooling, parents are expected to notify their local school superintendent every year. They're also supposed to assess their child's progress annually and send a report to the local superintendent.

3 Ways To Treat Shingles
What Is Shingles?
Shingles, or herpes zoster, is a blistering rash that usually forms a band that spreads around one side of a part of your body. It is most commonly seen in the mid-section, but can also be on any body part, including the eye or the face. People often describe it as the worst pain they have ever experienced.
Shingles is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. Technically, shingles itself is not contagious, however, someone with shingles can transmit the virus that causes chickenpox, which could reactivate many years later causing shingles.
The blistering rash usually lasts two to four weeks. While there is no cure for shingles, there are three common treatments for shingles, to help reduce the pain and shorten the duration of symptoms.

Waterford - The Millstone Power Station is awaiting the anticipated Nov. 4 release of new federal standards for cooling water structures that could determine whether it would be required to construct cooling towers.
Plant manager Matt Adams, in a presentation to the Nuclear Energy Advisory Committee Thursday, said Dominion, the company that owns Millstone, last year submitted a study of various cooling water technologies as part of its application for a new permit to use water from Long Island Sound to cool the nuclear power plant.
The plant uses about 1.3 million gallons of water per minute from the Sound, but reduces the amount of water during spawning season for various fish species and at other environmentally sensitive times, he said. The permit expires in 2015. As part of its permit review, the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection asked Dominion to conduct a study of other methods of cooling the plant that would have fewer environmental impacts such as trapping fish and fish larvae in the intake structures. Cooling towers is one method used at some other nuclear power plants.
DEEP is conducting the permit renewal review as part of its role in enforcing federal Clean Water Act regulations on behalf of the federal Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA's pending decision on intake structures, which has been delayed several times, will impact what the state ultimately decides, Adams said.
On its website, the EPA said it expects to issue final standards on Nov. 4 for cooling water standards that would require plants to use the "best technology available for minimizing adverse environmental impacts."
Adams said the study conducted by Dominion found that if cooling towers are required, three structures would have to be built at the site - one for Unit 2 and two for Unit 3. They would be about 500 feet tall and would cost in excess of $1 billion, company spokesman Ken Holt said.
The study also determined that the method being used at the plant, with periodic reductions in water use and screens that prevent some marine life from getting drawn by the intake structures, meets the "best technology available" standard."
"But they (DEEP) might require us to do more studies," he said.
The presentation on the cooling towers came during Dominion's annual presentation to NEAC, a six-member citizen panel that reviews Millstone plant safety and welfare issues. Other than a four-day unanticipated shutdown of Millstone 3 in August due to an electrical malfunction, the two plants have had one of their best years of power production, Adams said.
"Basically, you've been operating satisfactorily for the past year," concluded Bill Sheehan, chairman of NEAC.

playwright is as famous
as William Shakespeare, and so fans worldwide will
again celebrate his traditional birthday on and around
April 23.
In 2006, some literary collectors have an additional reason for celebrating
Shakespeare this spring: one of the most important publications
of Shakespeare's works will soon be up for bidding at
a public auction.
It's believed that only 750 copies of the highly prized and well-guarded
collection—called "The First Folio"—were published
in 1623, by some of Shakespeare's friends seven years
after he died. The collection contains 36 plays and was
the first to include 18 of his works—like Twelfth Night and Macbeth—which
had never been printed before.
This week's lesson will lead you through your own celebration of Shakespeare's
life and his passion for playwriting. First, you'll
explore his life and works, and then you'll get tutored
in the art of playwriting and get a chance to write
your own play.
Shakespeare at the Folger Shakespeare Library. As you'll soon
learn, Shakespeare was not only a playwright; he
was also a poet and an actor.
Read the brief introduction, and then dive deeper into Shakespeare's
Life with his Stratford
Beginnings, his Success
in London, and The
Final Years.
What conditions and relationships were especially strong in shaping
Shakespeare's life in this Expansive
Age? In what ways did Shakespeare
influence the different facets of society? Why are
the details of Shakespeare's
Story still in dispute?
Now, let's take a good look at Shakespeare's
Works, specifically at some of The
Plays. Here, you'll find plot summaries and expert
commentary on most of his known plays. Choose a
few in each category—Comedies,
Histories, and Tragedies—to review.
For example, start
out with Alls
Well That Ends Well or The
Merchant of Venice,
in the comedy section. Explore
history-based plays like King
John and Henry
V, and enduring tragedies, including Hamlet, Julius
and Othello.
How do the different plays compare in setting, key characters, and plot?
Why do you think these plays have continued to attract
audiences, centuries after they were written?
you have time, also peruse The
Poems section, get some pointers on Reading
Shakespeare's Language, and learn more about The
Publication of Shakespeare's Plays, including why The
First Folio is a key collection.
leaving Folger Library, get a glimpse of Shakespeare's
Theater to get an idea of where these plays were performed. Learn
more about the London
Playhouses and Other Sites, discover what Inside
the Theaters was like, how Staging
and Performance was done, and how Business
Arrangements were
made among the acting companies and theaters.
For what reasons were "scene changes" often signaled by character entrances
rather than by physical changes in the stage set? In
what ways have conditions for actors and theater owners
changed since Shakespeare's time? In what ways have
they generally stayed the same?
To polish off your exploration into Shakespeare's life, visit the online
version of The
Complete Works of William Shakespeare. Choose one or more of
the plays that match those you reviewed at the Folger
Library. At this site, read the whole story and get
more familiar with the characters. Follow closely the
two or three main characters. What does each character
want? Is he or she involved in any conflict with another?
What obstacles exist? How does the conflict get resolved
and what are the consequences?
Note: You may also wish to watch a live performance
or feature film of the play, to get an even
stronger sense of how the story flows and characters
Shakespeare clearly had some superior playwriting
talents, with some guidance and practice, anyone can
write a play.
To start you off, learn some basic skills at Playwriting
101. Start at the top of the Table of Contents with
Play's the Thing and Types of Plays and Different
Theater Spaces. In which kinds
of theaters have you been an audience member or actor
Now, let's get to the heart of things: Story
structure. Why is the sequence of exposition, complication,
and resolution critical to a good story? What are
some of the key components of Story
Development? Write down or print the Top Ten List.
If possible, go back and review one of Shakespeare's
plays again. This time, use the list to jot down
more detailed notes about the plot and characters.
What does each character "show" rather than "tell"?
From "hearing" each character's distinctive voice,
how would you describe each of them? Identify
the event or conflict that the play's plot hinges
on, and so forth.
Continue through the tutorial to learn about the mechanics of writing
a play. For example, What
does a play look like? And, What
are the acceptable Manuscript Format Elements and Play
Page Layout that should be used? Continue reviewing these
specifics until completed.
Over the next few weeks, read The Cincinnati Enquirer.
Follow a few news stories that have been reported
on for two or more days and which seem to involve conflict
or some other type of relationship between two or more
individuals or group. Choose one of the unfolding
dramas as the basis for a play. Is this a comedy or a
tragedy? Start developing your plot by identifying the
main characters, along with what is at stake for each, and other
key elements following your Playwright's Top Ten List. Based on your
research, write a Ten-Minute fictionalized play based
on the news story. (Like Shakespeare's "history" plays,
your play does not have to strictly follow reality.)
You are writing this play so that, ultimately, fellow
classmates can act it out. So, make sure to consider
the type of theater space in which it will likely be
performed, and what kinds of props could be easily
and used. Type up your play in an acceptable format.
As the play's director, assign character parts to classmates,
distribute your script, set-up and run rehearsals,
gather props, etc. Finally, perform your play in front
of an audience.

This was made from a Scootaloo brushable. She was painted with acrylics and the hair was made with colored sculpey, which was then sealed with sculpey satin glaze. I know that she doesn't look exactly like her filly shape from the show, but I figured she has to have looked like this at some point.

Benefits Of Mental Health Support Groups
Unlike physical disorders, mental sicknesses are often not recognizable and difficult to identify. This makes these disorders lots tougher to understand leading the sufferers to believe that they are alone in their suffering and that help is unavailable. Top these with their own conviction that there isn't a way to heal them and that the disorder is just too embarrassing. These beliefs are true to most mental health sufferers making it hard for them to seek treatment or comfort, to say the least.
In response to changing these views, mental health support groups have been created to assist sufferers know that there other people experiencing the identical disorders that they experience which caused them to search for treatment. These also make them really feel that there is hope to their suffering and could encourage them to stay to their treatment. For some, its their groups that provide the support system they lack.
What's A Mental Health Support Group?
A support group is a gathering of people with a common purpose or interest. Translated into mental health, it is a group of people that have related sufferings and provide moral and emotional help to folks like them. Normally, these support groups focus and specialize on a specific condition. For example, it is rare to find a depression support group that additionally covers schizophrenia. This need to specialize is driven by the fact that a psychiatric or mental disorder is a very complicated issue thus requiring a specific direction.
Support groups could possibly be used in conjunction with formal and professional treatment and are often confused with group psychotherapy sessions. Group therapy is totally different in support group in such a way that the former requires a formal and pedagogical setting. This forms a group of people with comparable problems and subjected under the guidance of qualified mental health professionals.
A support group might be formed by anyone who has a need to establish this type of group or who have a particular interest on the services that could possibly be gathered from this group. It could possibly be a patient of a particular mental disorder, a family member of somebody who has a mental illness- just about anybody. More organized support groups, nonetheless, are formed by mental health providers, non-profit organizations or mental clinics. Oftentimes, this kind is controlled by a facilitator or a moderator who's knowledgeable enough within the field as to qualify him to manage the group.
Members of a support group are normally sufferers of mental illnesses. Somebody affected by unipolar or bipolar disorder is normally found on support groups specializing in these specific disorders or on a broader disorder like that of depression.
The preferred format of support groups is through internet which is broader in scope both in audience and varieties of topics. However, a customized but very limited type of support group is the person-to-person format or through telephone. Lack of more personalized support is the widespread drawback of joining online support groups.
A mental health support group could augment the professional treatment you receive but the services you get from this group should by no means be treated as a substitute to your medical and psychological treatments. This group could open you up to reality and may even provide you with new hope, however do not forget that treatment for a mental illness isn't all about will power.

VIDEO: Luis Suarez bite row is nothing compared to Peru keeper's karate kick
THOUGHT Luis Suarez attempting to bite Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic was the worst footballing incident this weekend? Then think again.
Amazingly, Flores only received a yellow card for his actions, although he did concede a penalty for the violent incident
Pacífico midfielder Mauro Cantoro broke clean through the opposition's defence, as he charged towards Flores's goal.
And, as the ball bounced up, both player's rose to challenge - with Cantoro nicking the ball first.
But, before he could slot home, Cantoro was felled by Flores's karate kick straight into the side of his face.
Amazingly, Flores only received a yellow card for his actions, although he did concede a penalty for the violent incident.
And Pacifico are lobbying Peruvian footie chiefs to hand the stopper a lengthy ban.
Maybe he could use the time off to learn the difference between a football and a human head...

If you don't know where your dreams begin and reality ends, you are probably in the Bahamas. And with thousands of breathtaking islands and cays, as well as secluded beaches fringed with coconut palms, you could be forgiven for not knowing the difference. Framed by a backdrop of mesmerising blue, the 700 islands of the Bahamas are scattered like jewels across the sea and offer endless possibility, from the hidden gems of the remote isles to the glamour and allure of New Providence Island.
From a port-of-call for 17th century pirates to the blur of high-energy hustlers it is today, Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas, is a high-energy antidote to sleeping your days away on the beach. Old Town is a juxtaposition of abandoned buildings and pastel-coloured Caribbean structures. During the age of pirates, Nassau was at the epicentre, and the Pirates of Nassau Museum celebrates this history. Shop at the duty-free, jewellery, and perfume shops on Bay Street, or head west of the wharf to Pompey Museum, which describes the slaves' journey to the Caribbean from Africa.
Unspoiled by mass tourism, Cat Island is an untainted, fishhook-shaped island with rolling hills, dense woodlands, and deserted pink sand beaches. The island is dotted with cotton plantation ruins and the remains of slave huts dating to the 1700s. Arawak Indian caves are ready to be explored, and this remote island is a stronghold for obeah, West Indian witchcraft, and home to the healing bush medicines.
The Bahamas' range of caves are fascinating to explore. Underwater caves are veritable aquariums filled with nearly every type of marine life you can imagine. Inland caves vary from deep fracture caves to sinkholes to shallower passages. One of the most famous caves is Thunderball Grotto at Staniel Cay, where parts of the 1965 James Bond movie, Thunderball, were filmed. Don a mask and snorkel, then swim under the water to the beautiful grotto. The Bahamas is also home to some of the world's most famous (and dangerous) blue holes, including Dean's Blue Hole, the world's deepest seawater blue hole, set in a bay west of Clarence Town on Long Island, Bahamas.
Swim the brilliant turquoise waters of Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park, located about 65 miles southeast of Nassau. This was the first land and sea park in the world and is the western hemisphere's second largest coral barrier reef. Famous for its pristine beauty and breathtaking scenery, there are 365 cays to explore. Swim with sea turtles or see the colourful coral reefs teeming with brilliant marine life.
There are two types of beaches in the Bahamas—activity beaches and deserted beaches. Either way, you are sure to find stretches of gorgeous soft sand rolling to crystal clear, shallow waters. Most (about 80 percent) of the beaches in the Bahamas are deserted, meandering swaths of virgin sand. Activity beaches are centred around the tourist towns and offer diving, fishing, sailing, restaurants, and beach bars. Some of the finest white sand beaches in the Caribbean are on Stocking Island, Exuma, ringed with pristine, clear waters and lined with tropical foliage. Cable Beach on New Providence Island is close to the glittering shoreline and offers easy access to casinos, water sports, and bars. For true isolation, head to Tahibit Beach, Elbow Cay, Abacos. This immaculate stretch of white sand and cool water is only ever seen by a handful of people.

The drier months of December to April see less rain, a milder climate, and a pleasant breeze thanks to the Bahamas' proximity to North America. Being high season, there's a great choice of things to do and a feel-good holiday atmosphere.
A perfect escape from the cold weather back home, our favourite time to visit the Bahamas is in the drier months of December to April, when the islands enjoy the most comfortable temperatures without being too hot.
The Bahamas' rainy season coincides with its hottest temperatures, meaning the short, sharp showers from May to October are actually a welcome relief from the heat and humidity. The hurricane season stretches from June to November, but storms are usually detected early.

There two main carriers offering flights to Nassau in the Bahamas from the UK.
Direct Carriers: Direct carriers from the UK are British Airways from London Heathrow up to 5 times per week.
Indirect Carriers: British Airways offer flights from most other regional airports such as Manchester, Glasgow and Edinburgh with a connection via London Heathrow, and American Airlines from most regional UK airports going via the States.
None for British citizens.
Bahamian Dollars, the official currency, are pegged to the US Dollar, keeping them equal. US Dollars are also accepted throughout the islands. You can exchange your UK Pounds for Bahamian Dollars before you go. There is no restriction on foreign currency taken into the Bahamas.
People usually use the US Dollar when on holiday in the Bahamas. The easiest way to get money when you're there is to withdraw cash from a cash machine after arrival. Cash machines offer the best exchange rates, but you will be charged a transaction fee from the bank you are using, as well as from your home bank. The major commercial banks are available throughout the larger islands and tourist areas for exchanging currency or withdrawing cash, but they are not as prevalent on the remote islands. Avoid exchanging cash at bureau exchanges or hotels, where the transaction fees are the highest. Major credit cards are widely accepted on the main islands, but you may have difficulty on the more remote isles. Most establishments only accept credit cards with chip and pin.
Most restaurants in the Bahamas add a 15 percent service charge, so check your bill before double tipping. It is customary to leave a bit extra if the service was very good. At a bar, tip one to two Dollars per drink. Tip one to two Dollars per bag for porters. For taxi drivers, round up to the nearest Dollar for short trips, or give a Dollar or two for longer trips. Most people in the service industry in the Bahamas are not paid very well and rely on tips for the bulk of their earnings.
End May, June, September, October, and November.
Hepatitis A, Polio and Typhoid recommended.
The Bahamas enjoy about 320 days of sun every year and with more beachfront than any other Caribbean nation—800 miles to be exact—your holiday is sure to involve sun, sea, and sand.
Lightweight jacket;
Converter and adapter—the Bahamas' power supply is 120 volts at 60 hertz;
Cotton T-shirts
and shorts to keep you cool;
Trousers for evening and going anywhere besides the beach;
Camera and underwater camera for snorkelling;
Umbrella in the rainy season;
Snorkelling gear.
High-SPF sunscreen;
Sandals or flip flops;
Unsurprisingly, given the Bahamas' ocean location, the cuisine is heavily seafood oriented. The flavours of this Caribbean cuisine are subtly spicy and uniquely flavoured with local seafood and produce. Conch, a firm white meat from a large ocean mollusc that features in many dishes, is a local favourite, as are land crabs, crawfish, and fresh fish.
Conch Chowder
Conch chowder is a Bahamian favourite. Combine tomatoes, potatoes, sweet peppers, onions, carrots, salt pork, bay leaf, thyme, and salt and pepper with a pound of conch meat. Variations include adding clams, potatoes, or tomato paste to make the broth thicker.
Souse (pronounced sowse) is a simple soup unique to the Bahamas. Water, onions, lime juice, celery, peppers, and meat such as chicken, sheep's tongue, oxtail, or pig's feet are mixed together and boiled.
Boiled Fish and Grits
A take on the American Deep South's favourite breakfast, the Bahamas love boiled fish and grits. Fish (usually grouper) is mixed with grits, a type of coarsely ground corn kernels, and boiled with water or milk for breakfast.
Peas 'n' Rice
Peas 'n' rice are to the Bahamas what potatoes are to Ireland. Peas are used in many dishes, including pea soup with dumplings and split pea soup, but peas 'n' rice is by far the most popular way of eating them. Like potatoes, peas 'n' rice can be prepared a variety of ways. A popular method is to cook pigeon peas or black-eye peas with salt pork, tomatoes, celery, uncooked rice, thyme, onion, green pepper, salt, and pepper. Locals often sprinkle hot sauce over the top.
Johnnycakes date back to the days of the islands' early settlers. They are a type of bread with butter, milk, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder mixed together, then pan fried. Johnnycakes were popular with fisherman who could make the dish on their ships.
Like in most Caribbean countries, street food plays an important role in life in the Bahamas. Not only does it add employment for the local economy, it provides tourists with a way of tasting authentic Bahamian cuisine. Queue with the locals at street vendors for some typical Bahamian cuisine. Be careful to only order street food from vendors whose food is clean and fresh, as well as cooked right in front of you.
Fresh or Fried Conch
Conch is a typical Bahamian favourite and can be served in a variety of ways. Often it is fresh or fried (cracked conch). For fresh conch, the meat is scored with a knife and lime juice and spices are sprinkled over the meat. It is usually eaten with slices of onion and fire-hot sauce. For cracked conch, the meat is pounded flat, dipped in batter, then deep-fried and served hot.
Conch Fritters
Conch meat is mixed with finely minced sweet peppers, onions, tomato paste, flour, egg, and milk, shaped into balls and fried, then served with hot sauce.
Prices in the Bahamas are relatively high due to most goods being imported and the addition of duty taxes and freight charges. A meal for two at a mid-range restaurant will cost about 75 Bahamian Dollars, but you can also go for fast food or to an inexpensive restaurant and only pay about 10 Bahamian Dollars. A 1.5-litre of water from a grocery store costs about two Bahamian Dollars and a bottle of low-range wine at a grocery store costs about 15 Bahamian Dollars.
Bahamians do not have a national costume. They dress in modern clothing similar to what we might wear in the summer, for example light, linen or cotton tops, shorts, jeans, etc. You will see colourful costumes at the annual Junkanoo Festival, held in the dark morning hours of 26 December and again at the same time on the first day of the New Year. Brightly coloured Junkanoo costumes consist of crepe paper meticulously glued to fabric, cardboard, or wood to create headdresses, shoulder pieces, and skirts.
Customs and traditions in the Bahamas have been shaped by African culture with a European colonial influence. Etiquette is actually quite similar to the UK, most notably in terms of politeness and consideration for others.
Customs you will notice while on holiday in the Bahamas include:
• Wear appropriate clothing when away from the beach. Shorts and shirts are fine, but don't wear a swimsuit to a restaurant.
• Many Bahamians are devout Christians, so Sunday is typically reserved for church and prayer.
• Bahamians drive on the left side of the road, but as most vehicles are imported from the USA, they are typically left-hand drive.
• You should greet people with a handshake, a smile, and direct eye contact. Not maintaining direct eye contact is viewed as suspicious behaviour.
• Bahamians tend to move to a first-name basis slowly.
• The legal drinking age in the Bahamas is 18.
• Importing, possessing, or dealing unlawful drugs is a serious offence with heavy penalties in the Bahamas.
• While time is generally more fluid in the Bahamas than it is in the UK, if you are invited to a Bahamian's house you should arrive no more than 15 minutes late. Make sure you dress as you would for going to the office; dressing too informally can be misconstrued as disrespect.
• Bahamians have a good sense of humour tending towards self-deprecating. They like to make fun of themselves as well as tease others. This should be seen as harmless teasing and Bahamians like it when you join in.
The Bahamas is home to a varied array of animal species on land and sea. The clear waters of the shallow islands means a walk in a tidal pool will reward you with crabs, starfish, beautiful shells, and colourful fish. There are 27 national parks protecting marine and land animals in the Bahamas, including the world's longest underwater cave systems, the world's largest breeding colony of West Indian flamingos, and the most successful marine fishery reserves in the Caribbean.
Bahamian Pigs
For a truly unique experience, head to Big Major Spot Island to swim with the pigs. The legend goes that the pigs survived a shipwreck many years ago and managed to swim to shore, making their home in the tropical foliage and white sand beach, which locals have now named Pig Beach. As soon as the pigs hear boats coming, they thunder over the sand and plough into the sea, ready for visitors to splash in the water with them and, they hope, give them scraps of food.
Bird Watching
There are many tropical birds to see throughout the islands of the Bahamas. Several species are only found here, including the Bahama yellowthroat, the Bahama swallow, the Bahama nuthatch, the Bahama warbler, and the Bahama parrot. Waterfowl and wading birds can easily be spotted throughout the islands, as can Caribbean coots, Bahama pintails, egrets, and herons. See the Bahama parrot at Abaco National Park. This is one of the most important bird parks in the Bahamas and home to diverse species of birds. You can also go bird watching at Black Sound Cay National Reserve and Tilloo Cay National Reserve.
Horseback Riding
Horseback riding is available on Paradise Island, Grand Bahama Island, and the Abacos. Choose from carriage rides, saddling up and traversing the silent woods, or galloping across deserted stretches of beach.
Scuba Diving and Snorkelling
If you like warm seas, soft white sand, colourful reefs, and an abundance of tropical marine life, then you are in for a treat. The Bahamas is a scuba diving paradise. The 760-mile arc of islands offers a diverse range of beautiful reefs, turquoise pools, and clear shallows. You can choose to snorkel in the shallow waters that rim the islands or head deeper into the sea to see sharks, dolphins, sting rays, loggerhead turtles, and coral teeming with brilliantly-coloured fish.
Pink Flamingos
The pink flamingos of Inagua National Park cut a shimmering slash of pink across Lake Windsor at Great Inagua Island. The brilliant, crimson pink flamingos stand about five feet tall with black-tipped wings. Around 70,000 of these remarkable birds nest on the salt ponds of the island, making a spectacular scene for the few that make the trek to see them.

You're on to four to five lines of text, which is way more than anyone wants to read to make a selection like this. Your text also assumes knowledge of what a "desktop environment" is, what a "panel" is, what an "applet" is...(and whether that's a problem or not *again* comes down to exactly who we're caring about here). I know you said not to care too much about your specific text, but I see the same problems every time someone attempts this. Describing GNOME and KDE in a concise fashion in a way that makes sense to someone who doesn't already actually *know* the difference seems very close to an un-solveable problem. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

US still going for medal despite losing Sacramone
TOKYO The U.S. goal at the world gymnastics championships hasn't changed, even if the Americans' lineup has been altered.
Despite losing Beijing Olympic captain Alicia Sacramone to a torn Achilles tendon, the Americans insist they can still contend for a medal - preferably an upgrade from last year's silver.
"We're still a threat," USA Gymnastics president Steve Penny said Friday. "We are very much a threat at this event."
The top eight teams at worlds earn spots at next summer's London Olympics. The U.S., defending champion Russia and China begin competition with qualifying Saturday. Romania currently leads qualifying despite a shaky session Friday that included mistakes on three events by all-around contender Ana Porgras, while Australia is second.
Team finals are Tuesday night.
"This is an incredibly talented and wonderful group of girls, and I have great confidence in their ability to go out and represent the United States," Sacramone said.
Losing Sacramone was a big blow for the Americans, who prize her leadership as much as the big scores she puts up on vault, where she is the defending world champion, balance beam and floor exercise. Aly Raisman is now the only American who has competed at a world championships before - and that was last year. The remaining four gymnasts - U.S. champ Jordyn Wieber, McKayla Maroney, Sabrina Vega and Gabrielle Douglas - are all first-year seniors.
But coach Mihai Brestyan said Sacramone was in good spirits after being hurt during training Thursday, and that's rubbed off on the rest of the team. The team had a good practice Friday, he said.
"She's a help to everybody. She needs to play the captain to the last moment," Brestyan said. "Everything is OK, we are OK."
With Sacramone out and uneven bars specialist Anna Li sidelined by an abdominal injury, Raisman, Wieber, Maroney, Vega and Douglas will have to compete on all four events in qualifying. That's a lot of pressure because the top four scores are counted, leaving little margin for error.
But Penny said that might actually make things easier on the young Americans. All five are all-around gymnasts, so they're used to doing every event at a meet.
"This is the kind of meet that they thrive on," Penny said. "If you look at what they did at the Pan American Championships last year, they're ready for this."
Maroney, Vega and Douglas helped the U.S. win gold at the Pan Americans, then divvied up the individual event titles between them. Vega also finished second in the all-around to fellow American Kyla Ross, who is too young to be competing here. Wieber, meanwhile, was injured and not part of that team, but she proved her mettle at the American Cup, beating world champion Aliya Mustafina in her first meet as a senior.
Still, Pan Ams - even American Cup - are a far cry from the world championships, especially when there's so much at stake.
"These kids are ready for this stage. They're hungry and they're ready," Penny said. "They know what's at stake here, and they want to prove they're a threat this year and next year. That's what this is about. We're here to do our best and to be on that podium. That's what our goals are and those haven't changed."
The Americans faced a similar predicament in 2003, when they lost three gymnasts to injury or illness at the world championships. The team won the gold, its first world title.
Granted, that team had 2000 Olympian Tasha Schwikert. But it also had three first-year seniors in Carly Patterson, Chellsie Memmel and Holly Vise. Patterson won the silver medal in the all-around, while Memmel, who started as an alternate, and Vise tied for the title on uneven bars.

An easy to clean, portable dog bed.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This bed folds in half with a briefcase-type handle at the top of the inside. As you can see in my picture below, it rolls up to about the size of a sleeping pad. The zipper on the side allows you to remove one of the foam inserts for washing, and the material is durable and unlikely to show any wear. It's not plush, but it does have a nice amount of cushion.
My complaint is really my dog's, for whatever reason, she does not like lying on it and prefers other, softer, surfaces. I'm returning it for something plush.
Sleepy dog.
Rolled-up view.
how tight can you roll this up without...
how tight can you roll this up without destroying the integrity of the foam?
You can roll it up so that it's a little bit bulkier than a z-rest sleeping bad. (Approx. 6'')
You could probably roll it up a little tighter that that, but I wouldn't for the sake of the foam's integrity (as you pointed out).

I love quilting, writing, and decoupage. My family quilts, however I did not have an interest up until 15 years ago, and didn't start quilting until 2003. I have been quilting when I had time, which was infrequent. Now I have time and getting into quilting like I want.

Ah well, we have to get used to it. Meeting new friends and then saying goodbye to them all too soon is the way of Air Force life. Molly and Emma have been companions for almost a year. We met her family within the first two weeks of being in Cheyenne, and the rest is history. It has been a sometimes turbulent friendship, with strong personalities conflicting from time to time. But together, they walked along the path of learning to work out problems by talking, or compromise. (And only sometimes physically.) Regardless, Molly misses her "Crazy Emma" very much.
And Abby. Remember the picture of Sophie's first day of school? She was with Abby. A very gentle and soft-spoken (in my presence, anyway) friend. Because Sophie and Abby were not in the same class, they did not see much of each other at school. But regardless of sometimes long gaps in their play time, they have been loyal friends, always picking up where they left off.
And then there's Stephanie, of whom I have no good picture to share. Strong bonds build up between military spouses, especially with kids the same age. Sometimes those bonds stand the tests of time and frequent moves around the world, and we never forget the possibility of being stationed in the same place again in the future. Stephanie and I clocked many hours in deep discussion, and I hope I can speak for both of us when I say, as stay-at-home moms, these hours are crucial for sanity. I will miss our long talks and companionship.
Farewell, friends!
