After I left a message in "The Song Name Game" I decided for no particular reason to look at my message count. The last time I remember was some time in the past going past 3,000 messages.
When I looked, the message count read 3,999 I thought that it was an interesting twist of fate that I get to choose my 4,000th message.
So, with no further ado, here is message # 4,000.
I would like to thank the patient people of foo for my recent spike in message volume... I couldn't have done it so quickly without you!
I would also like to say, along with all of my gratitude, I also pile upon you, the monsters of foo, all of the blame for my wasted time!!!
Now, like Roberto Clemente, I will fade off with a nice round number.
Actually I'll be back later, but I need to be offline for a couple of hours.
Until I get back, y'all can enjoy looking at my gloriously round number.
EDIT: In foo-like fashion, the post count still reads 3,999

God's Handiwork: Images of Women in Early Germanic Literature
By Richard J. Schrader
God's Handiwork: Images of Women in Early Germanic Literature
By Richard J. Schrader
"Perhaps because well educated women formed a large part of the audience of early Germanic literature, it was quite sympathetic to them. God's Handwork offers a guide to the images of women in this literature. Focusing on the vernacular writings of Anglo-Saxon England and other Germanic territories in the same era, he discovers that many of these literary women were 'romanesque' abstractions and not meant to represent actual people. Schrader's book offers a genuinely fresh look at its subject matter, and will prove of interest to scholars in medieval literature, comparative literature, and women's studies."

Don't worry if you don't know Ruby or Ruby on Rails at the moment, we'll teach it to you as a part of the course.
The class is broken up into six modules. Each consists of a set of lecture videos, which are between 6 and 12 minutes in length. Each module contains quiz questions and homework assignments that are not part of video lectures.
Yes. Students who successfully complete the class will receive a Statement of Accomplishment signed by the instructor.
For this course, all you need is an Internet connection, a computer onto which you can load the Ruby on Rails development environment (we'll tell you how), and the time to watch the videos and develop/debug/test web app code.
How to build and deploy a modern web application that supports a great idea you have, or a business opportunity you've dreamed up.

Alzheimer's Disease and Other Confusional States (Positive Health Guide)
Alzheimer's Disease and dementia are often used as blanket terms to describe any state of confusion in the elderly. They are often wrongly regarded as the inevitable results of growing old. In fact, problems such as memory loss, disorientation and difficulties in communication are frequently the symptoms of illnesses that can be treated effectively after prompt diagnosis. This book explains the terminology, describes the symptoms, explains the causes and effects of memory loss and the differences between chronic and acute confusion, Alzheimer's Disease, and other forms of dementia. This new, revised edition includes updated chapter explaining: how to make the most of health and social services; the role of memory clinics; where to find professional and informal support; care for the carer and the sensitive issue of abuse of the elderly.

US Sides with Japan on Disputed Islands: Beijing says its a betrayal, orders troops combat ready, could cash in on US debt for equity
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
Fukushima is a lot less of a potential hazard to the population of Japan than the upcoming implosion of China's economy as the housing bubble bursts.
Also all this rhubarb about China owning all US debt is a fallacy, its actually 8%.
kulo 32228659
Yeah right. Japanese economy is in so much great shape by desperately printing trllions yen out of thin air and expecting a rebund miracle from lost decades. So impressed.
Yeah. US debt is not a problem at all, why not give every citizen of the US 1 trllion coin to pay off each other's debt. Then you would be having any bills in the future. Retard.

Objectives. The primary aim of this study was to determine if the immediate outcomes of multidisciplinary pain rehabilitation were different for African Americans compared with Caucasians.
Design. A retrospective repeated measures design was used, and all analyses were adjusted for marital and employment status, years of education, and pain duration.
Setting. Multidisciplinary pain rehabilitation center.
Subjects. Each African American (N = 40) consecutively admitted to a multidisciplinary pain rehabilitation program was matched with three Caucasians (N = 120) on age, sex, and treatment dates.
Intervention. A 3-week outpatient multidisciplinary pain rehabilitation program.
Outcome Measures. The Multidimensional Pain Inventory, Short Form-36 Health Status Questionnaire, Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression scale, and Pain Catastrophizing Scale were administered at admission and dismissal.
Results. At baseline, African Americans had greater pain severity (P < 0.001) and poorer physical function compared with Caucasians (P < 0.001). At program completion, African Americans had greater pain severity (P < 0.001) and poorer measures of life interference (P = 0.004), perceived control (P = 0.013), affective distress (P < 0.001), role physical (P = 0.001) and role emotional function (P = 0.001), physical (P < 0.001) and social function (P = 0.002), general health (P = 0.005), depression (P < 0.001), and pain catastrophizing (P < 0.001). A repeated measures analysis demonstrated a time by race interaction effect for pain interference (P = 0.038), affective distress (P = 0.019), role physical function (P = 0.007), social function (P = 0.029), and depression (P = 0.004), indicating African Americans experienced less improvement compared with Caucasians.
Conclusions. The results of this study highlight an under-recognized health disparity which provides the basis for developing targeted interventions aimed at improving the clinical outcomes of African Americans with chronic pain.

LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) — An official with the Nigerian Red Cross says the death toll from a series of attacks carried out by a radical Muslim sect in northeast Nigeria has risen to more than 100.
Red Cross official Ibrahim Bulama told The Associated Press on Sunday that he expects the number to rise as local clinics and hospitals tabulate their numbers in Damauturu, the capital of Yobe state.
A radical Muslim sect known locally as Boko Haram claimed responsibility for the attacks Friday, which included suicide bombings and shootings in the cities of Damaturu and Maiduguri. Nearly all the deaths occurred in and around Damaturu.

- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The objectives of this study were to evaluate morphologic alterations and precancerous lesions in Reinke's edema. Patients included were 54 smokers with bilateral Reinke's edema submitted to surgery in the Otolaryngology Department, Botucatu Medical School, São Paulo State University, Brazil, between 2002 and 2006. All specimens were evaluated by light microscopy and five contralateral lesions were also evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The main histological alterations were edema (100%), inflammation (81.48%), basal membrane (bm) thickening (77.77%), and vessel proliferation (75.92%). Epithelium alterations were classified as grade 0 (11.11%), grade 1 (70.37%), grade 2 (14.81%), and grade 3 (3.70%). In the case included in grade 3 classification, microinvasive carcinoma was detected. SEM showed epithelial surface with some cellular desquamation, few microridges, and a polished and impermeable surface aspect. TEM showed epithelial hyperplasia, basal cells with different sizes, widening of the intercellular spaces, abnormal desmosome architecture, thickening of the bm, some electron-dense vesicles, and points of interruption. The morphological alterations presented in this study are not specific to Reinke's edema but this lesion can be the site of different grades of dysplasia and carcinoma, justifying the importance of periodic laryngeal endoscopic exams and meticulous histological analysis.

I have a Mexican Avocado tree growing indoors in the winter (we live in the Northeast) outdoors in the summer. It has developed white round spots and the edges to the inside are becoming brown and the leaves are falling off. I do not see any sign of infestation anywhere. The soil looks clean, as do the leaves and I think it may be a disease but I do not know what.

Beechwood's Yeagle leaves coaching job
FORT MITCHELL Beechwood's Mike Yeagle, who has coached seven teams to state championships, stunned his squad and the Northern Kentucky football community by resigning.
Yeagle, 41, said he would return Monday to his role as a Beechwood health and physical education teacher, but that he was taking a leave from football for undisclosed medical reasons.
There'll come a day I'll coach again when, I don't know, Yeagle said. I've got to get myself better.
Yeagle, a former Beechwood player who has been coaching in the program since 1985, is 137-17 in 11 years as head coach.
Beechwood principal Glen Miller said he would appoint an interim coach from within the staff by Wednesday. The Tigers begin their season next Saturday at home against Indianapolis Scecina.
Yeagle's players and assistant coaches knew something was wrong with him because he missed a series of preseason practices, but they said they still were surprised when he called a team meeting Wednesday to tell them the news.
My heart went to my throat, said assistant coach Bob Burnett, Beechwood's athletic director. It was crushing.
Said senior fullback/linebacker Kevin Martella: It was a shock, and very emotional. To most of us, he's more than a football coach. It became more than just about football.
Yeagle declined to identify his ailment, but he has endured some trying times during his tenure.
In 1994, then-freshman Josh Bishop was injured during a Beechwood playoff game against Bath County. He ruptured a vein on top of his brain, and only emergency surgery saved his life.
Yeagle, shaken up, contemplated quitting immediately.
Bishop returned to play the remainder of his Beechwood career and graduated in 1998. But in December 1998, he filed suit against Yeagle, Beechwood, the Kentucky High School Athletic Association, Bath County High and helmet maker Riddell, claiming his brain injury caused him serious and permanent physical impairment, substantial medical expenses and indefinite pain and suffering.
A trial on the lawsuit was scheduled to begin earlier this week in Kenton Circuit Court, but a financial settlement was reached about three weeks ago, said Crescent Springs lawyer Lawson Walker, who represents the Bishop family.
Walker said he could not divulge settlement details.
Also, in 1999, a 15-year-old Beechwood player who was drinking and driving in a stolen car slammed into a tree at a cemetery in Fort Mitchell. Brad Fritz, a Covington Catholic High School football player sitting in the back seat, suffered head injuries and was hospitalized for four months.
The Tigers have had on-field struggles lately. They won the Class A state championship in seven of Yeagle's first nine seasons, but an 11-0 Beechwood team was upset by Newport Central Catholic in the 2000 playoffs. The Tigers went 9-4 last season, the worst record in Yeagle's tenure.
Yeagle has been known as an intense individual who lives and dies with his team's results, and he is very close to his players.
You could tell he cared about us a lot, maybe too much sometimes, said Joe Hampel, who played for Yeagle in the late 1990s and is a volunteer assistant at Highlands. It's hard to hear if the way things happened contributed to this situation. I hope he can get himself back healthy.
Burnett, a former Dixie Heights head coach, said he is still debating whether to consider applying for the interim post. Miller said two unnamed assistants have already applied. The other varsity assistants are Jim Procaccino, Noel Rash and Greg Hergott.
We're going to open (the coaching position) back up again at the end of the school year, Miller said. If Mike's healthy, we hope he applies again.
We're going to do everything we can to support Mike in his endeavors to get well.

Re: Highly skilled Dentist
I've had a good experience taking my mom to Dr Cynthia Cox. She did a good job on her full dentures, they look natural and fit well. She was with a dental group at the bottom of College Ave by CCAC but it looks like she's moved to another group near Summit/Pill Hill http://www.oaklandpacificdental.com/Meet-Dentist.html
My dentist is Dr. Cox, and they are part of the Dentistry Group Dr. Peterson, Chan and Cox on College Ave. They are excellent, very thorough and responsible dentists. If you decide to go with them, please let them know I referred you. Jackie

The Democratic Party may be in the minority in voter registration in Arizona, but it has a lot more money than Republicans to get its followers to the polls.
Campaign finance reports filed Thursday show the Arizona Democratic Party raised $3.8 million this election cycle, according to campaign finance reports filed Thursday. The organization reported it has more than $1 million in cash on hand, after expenses.
By contrast, the Arizona Republican Party lists its contributions this election cycle at $878,000. With its expenses so far, that left just $263,842.
The difference is the size of donations.
U.S. Senate candidate Jim Pederson contributed $1 million to the Democratic Party. The report showed $580,000 from the Democratic Governors Association. And the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community kicked in $707,500.
By contrast, the largest donation to Republicans was Tucson auto dealer Jim Click's $113,500. Former Dial Corp. chairman John Teets put in $77,000, with $65,000 from developer David Mehl.
The Salt River tribe also gave to the Republicans — but just $1,000.


text: 000 FXUS63 KMKX 260824 AFDMKX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI 324 AM CDT THU MAY 26 2016 .SHORT TERM... TODAY AND TONIGHT...Forecast Confidence - Medium. Attention early this morning on convection spreading ENE across central into eastern IA. Convection being driven east by mid-level short wave trof in vcnty of northwest IA and 700h warm air surge. Both synoptic mechanisms weaken slightly but continue NE and affect portions of central and srn WI this morning. Thinking at least sct t-storms will return to srn WI but unsure if they will hold together into the east. Hence trended toward from sct to more chance wording. May bump up western CWA to numerous if convection holds together next several hours. Bulk shear in the 30kt range with SF Cape increasing to 1.0-1.5k joules, could not rule out isold severe threat this mrng. Other early morning concern is dense fog. Dense fog holding on at KUNU and KETB but has been transient elsewhere. With thickening mid- high clouds and boundary layer mixing just off the surface, will hold off on Dense Fog advy but issue an SPS for several hours. After convection ends later this morning, clouds should break up allow warm and humid conditions to develop. Temperatures should rise well into the 80s but a lake breeze will cool locations right at the lake. With dewpoints mostly in the mid 60s, afternoon capping remains minimal with lingering instability of 1-2k joules CAPE. Trigger appears to be lacking but need to hold onto small pops in case something pops along weak boundary or lake breeze. Another stronger mid-level short wave approaches southern WI late tonight along with another surge of low to mid level moisture flux advection. Late night shear and instability impressive. Wl continue high pops across western CWA, even some likely wording in the far southwest. If trend continues, likely wording may be spread farther north and east late tonight in next forecast. .LONG TERM... FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY... Forecast confidence is medium. The closed upper low over the southwest states will progress northeast into the upper Midwest through Saturday. There will be repeated waves of vorticity advection, a steady feed of moisture from the Gulf increasing precipitable water values to 1.75 inches, and the nose of the low level jet pointing into southern WI. Expect CAPE to be around 1000 j/kg or less, with a warm profile leading to tall, skinny CAPE. Bulk shear will be 20 to 30 knots. These conditions are very similar to the last couple of days except that there is better stronger synoptic support for more widespread thunderstorms. Parameters support the potential for a few to grow strong. SPC may expand the marginal risk into southern WI with their morning update today. It is very difficult to pin down a more favorable time for showers and thunderstorms for this whole period of Friday morning through Saturday night. The instability will be more diurnally driven, and Friday should have the stronger instability out of the two days. It looks like we will be stuck in a wet pattern with warm, moist, southerly flow that will lead to scattered showers the whole time. Max temps should reach around 80 each day with 925mb temps around 20C, although clouds and precip could limit highs a bit. SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY... Forecast confidence is medium. The weakening upper trough will slide through northern WI on Sunday and the corresponding surface low will track across Lake Superior. Showers and thunderstorms will be possible, but probably earlier in the day and more isolated. We will transition into a temporary zonal flow pattern for Memorial Day. There are signs of a weak shortwave rippling through southern WI, which could produce a few showers and perhaps a rumble of thunder. The GFS continues to look overdone with its qpf. Southern WI will still be in the mild air mass, so expect temperatures in the lower 80s inland from the lake. TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... Forecast confidence is medium. A closed upper low will make its way across the northern Plains. The occluding surface low will likely bring showers and thunderstorms to southern WI during a 24 hour period between Tue night and Thu. However, there are some timing differences between the GFS and ECMWF now that will need to be resolved. The GFS continues to look too wet. && .AVIATION/12Z TAFS/... Areas of fog will continue through the early morning before lifting. Fog may yet affect KENW and KMKE taf sites next several hours along with a period of IFR cigs. Generally VFR conditions expected today but wl need to watch for scattered t-storms this morning. There will be a better chance for t-storms affecting taf sites later tonight into Friday morning. More fog is likely later tonight as well. && .MARINE... Warm and humid air will remain in place across Lake Michigan for the foreseeable future resulting in areas of fog and occasionally dense fog. Latest Racine Harbor webcam is showing fog over the harbor but Sheboygan and Milwaukee harbors look fairly fog free. Lake surface temperature in the near shore waters estimated to be in the lower 50s while mid-lake buoy measuring 49 degrees. With dewpoints in the low 60s and lighter wind regime, fog inevitable and as winds become onshore later this morning, areas of dense fog likely. Will wait for after sunrise to evaluate near shore visibilities before pulling trigger on Marine Dense Fog Advisory. No significant synoptic wind events expected, but off and on t-storms affecting the near shore waters may bring some gusty winds over 30 kts. Best chance for t- storms looks to be late tonight through Friday evening. && .MKX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... WI...None. LM...None. && $$ TODAY/TONIGHT AND AVIATION/MARINE...MBK Friday THROUGH Wednesday...MRC

Rapidly dashing out of your room once you were ready to go, you grabbed your keys before running through another small hallway.
You suddenly stopped and took a few steps back to stand in front of a tall, mahogany drawer, faded with age. Standing atop it was a photo that dated back a handful of years. Observing more closely, you could clearly see the kind and nurturing face beside a more rugged, laughing one full of mirth. You recalled that day. You were the one that took the photo.
Gently picking up the frame, you held it in both hands. A wistful smile made its way to your lips as you softly kissed the cool glass protecting the memory.
"Mom... Dad..." You sighed. "I wish you could be here today, it would mean so much if you could."
A disheartened look came about your face and you could feel your hands dig into the sides of the frames, the pads of your fingers losing more heat by the second. There was nothing to regret. They couldn't be here and as much as that hurt, you knew they would greatly disapprove of seeing their daughter disheartened on a day such as this. The thought immediately brought a grin to your face as you recalled it in fact was the you had been waiting so long for.
You uninhibitedly squealed as you raced out the door, making sure to properly close and lock it. It wasn't a bad neighborhood, but you were determined to have everything go perfectly. Or at least, that's what your friend Christa had been drilling into your brain for the past five months. If you were late even a minute, you knew she would be on your tail in no time.
As you drove off, you observed the small house you called your home shrink in size. It was cozy, but it was empty. Soon enough that would change.
"Ugh... It's way to early for this..." You tiredly yawned as you rested your head on a your palm. True enough, when you looked out the window, the sky still had a sunrise look to it. The sight was absolutely lovely, but you just couldn't appreciate the natural beauty of the world when you had to drive to Mikasa's which was twenty minutes away.
Sure enough, once you arrived, an overly hyper Christa met you at the door and practically dragged you in. You were still a little groggy, but you managed to offer her a smile. You looked around. You hadn't been in Mikasa's house too many times and the elegant interior always left you awed when you compared to your own little place.
Once the two of you entered the living room, however, your peaceful disposition quickly dissipated and was replaced with one of utter disbelief. All your bridesmaids were present: Sasha, Ymir, Mina, Annie, Hannah, and Mikasa. And they were all gowned and ready to walk down the aisles themselves!
"How is it even possible that you guys are ready?" You gaped. They all looked spotless with their matching (f/c) dresses that elegantly reached their ankles and the heels matched perfectly.
As soon as your voice was heard, they all looked up and immediately overcrowded you, Sasha being the hastiest as she vaulted onto you and enveloped you in a hug. 'How is it even possible for her to move like that in her dress??' You thought as she squeezed the daylights out of you. She wasn't one of the star track athletes in high school for nothing. Elated and sincere congratulations filled the room and you couldn't help the light blush coating your face as happy emotions whirled through you. Their energy was contagious.
Despite the joy you found in the group, you couldn't help the exhaustion that came from waking up early. Great, the last thing you needed was to be grumpy on your wedding day, you yawned. As though reading your thoughts, Christa came to your side and handed you a white cup with the familiar Starbucks logo. The cardboard sleeve was nice and warm to the touch and you could smell the scent of your favorite drink wafting into your nose.
If there was a prize for most dedicated bridesmaid, Christa would be the one taking it home ten times over.
"Glad to see you won't be passing out on us, now." You whirled around and smiled as you went up to hug that familiar head of pale hair.
"Aunt Rico, I wasn't expecting you here!" You said. Rico was clad in her own dull, green dress with roses accenting the bodice. It looked terrific on her.
"You really expect me to just see you at your wedding? Give me some credit." She gave you one of her rare smiles. You smiled back.
"Your Aunt offered to drive us, since the limo driver's wife was apparently in labor. He did leave us the limo keys, though!" Christa interjected.
"Oh, good for them!" You spouted. It didn't perturb you in the least that he couldn't be here, you were happy for them.
Ymir came up behind you, obviously uncomfortable in her dress, and pulled you in a headlock, mercilessly ruffling your hair as she gave you a toothy grin. Oh no, that grin always came before some embarrassing remark.
"You sound excited, (First). Can't wait to be the one in the labor room yourself, eh?" She snickered. There it was.
Her comment left you sputtering and before you could attempt an awful comeback, Mina shooed Ymir from your now disarrayed hair, and the freckled girl barked out a laugh as she walked away towards Christa.
"C'mon, Ymir, you shouldn't mess up the bride's hair the day of the wedding!" Mina squealed. flattening the haphazard strands with her palms . She was going to be in charge of doing your hair and you knew how serious she was when it came to her subject.
You waved your hand. "Don't worry about it, Mina, it wasn't that neat to begin with." You said as you took another sip of your coffee.
Eventually, all the chat ended and the girls rushed you into another room where you were sat down in front of a mirror and your precious caffeine was yanked away.
"Hey!" You whined.
"No more of that, we need your mouth clean to do your make-up." Mikasa's calm voice informed you and you nodded. At least you had gotten enough to wake you up normally. Mikasa began laying the foundation on your face while Christa got everything else from her purse and you could sense Mina behind you, winding a brush through your (h/t) hair to clear it of tangles. Sasha and Hannah were preparing your clothes in the other room and out of the corner of your eyes, you saw Ymir and Annie with a camera.
"Hey, no embarrassing pictures!" You yelled.
"Too bad." Annie pressed the button. "Can't wait to send these to your husband on your honeymoon."
"Aww! You guys stink!" You stuck out your tongue. Unfortunately, Mikasa chose that time to dab makeup under your lower lip and the foundation met your tongue. You sputtered at the taste as your friends laughed, Mikasa, Annie and Ymir, smirking. "That's what you get for not being still." You groaned.
Not soon enough, your hair was done up just how you wanted it and you survived Christa's meticulous makeup techniques. She spent ten minutes on each set of eyelashes! You understood why you had to get up so early; if you woke up when you wanted to, you would've missed the ceremony by now.
After Mina and Christa were done admiring their work, you were pulled into the guest room, where your dress lay on the bed. Not even a moment was spared for you to admire it before someone began tugging at your jacket.
"Hey, I can do this part myself!" You said as you marched into the walk in closet, dress in hand. If you had to sit or stand still any longer you would explode. You could hear a mutter of "too much caffeine" out the door. As quickly as you could, you undressed and folded your regular clothes and slid up the bodice of the dress. It still had straps and zippers and such, so you opened the door to let your friends help you.
The dress fit like a glove when it was all secured and Hannah handed you your shoes, which fit like a dream. When asked how you felt, you were glad you could describe it as formal and comfortable.
You rushed to the other room that had a full mirror and you gaped when you saw yourself. The face you had known all your life looked so mature and had a glow about it. The dress made you look like a royal with the way it flowed around you and you couldn't believe that this person was you. All the faults you ever thought about yourself faded away to be forgotten for another day.
Rico, who was to your left, placed a hand on your shoulder and flashed you a smile. "I can't believe my little niece already looks like this." She gushed in a maternal tone. You smiled excitedly. "You're so old." She added, and you deflated, hitting her on the shoulder before loudly laughing with her.
"Alright. If everyone's ready are we good to go? What time is it, Sasha?" Rico asked.
"It's... Oh, no way, we should be at the chapel by now!" She exclaimed, looking at a wall clock. Your eyes widened and you clutched at the sides of your dress, ready to run if you had to.
There was absolutely no way you were leaving him waiting.
But much to your luck, Mikasa halted you and pointed the clock.
"It's always been half an hour fast, we're good." She stated and you could have fallen over in relief.
Once everyone had all their things and were ready to go, you piled into the limo in the driveway, with Rico up front.
"...Say, have you ever driven a limo before, Aunt Rico?" You questioned.
"Nope," She shrugged as she turned on the engine.
Luckily, Rico was more dependable than you thought and had gotten everybody there harm free. It was a rather pleasant ride, despite Sasha and Ymir trying to get you to drink at least three glasses of champagne before arriving. Bless Mikasa and her responsible personality.
The chapel bells came into view and you felt that churning of your stomach settle uncomfortably. With all the preparation, the actual going to the chapel seemed so distant, but here you were.
You friends sensed your anxiety, it seems, and they each expressed a form of reassurance. Christa and Mikasa took your hands and Mina and Hannah patted your back. Ymir gave you a rather soft pat on the head, much to Mina's protests while Sasha playfully forced a smile on your face with her fingers and Annie softly smiled as she sat.
"Don't worry about a thing. Too much planning's gone into this for anything to go wrong." You heard Rico say.
"This is your day, and if there's anyone who deserves it, it's you, so enjoy it!" Christa said excitedly. The other girls nodded and murmured in agreement and you blushed.
Your friends consisted of some of the most talented girls you had ever known and you never felt like much when you compared yourself to them, even though you were incredibly close to all of them. You just didn't see how you stood out is all.
But here they were, telling you how kind you were and how much they cared about you. You've never felt so surrounded by such strong camaraderie and it almost made you feel like crying.
"If you mess up the makeup we put on you, I won't be merciless with the photos Annie took." Mikasa said in her deadpan humor, making you laugh.
"Alright." You breathed as the limo came to a stop. "Time for us to get out now, huh?" Rico was already at the door and helped you out, followed by your bridesmaids.
The bells loudly rang, giving the air around it a beautiful tone that calmed your nerves somewhat, but not much.
You moved to a room within the building and the ceremony was to take place in just a few minutes, and you were anxiously waiting, a nervous wreck. Hannah was checking for any stray hairs for Mina to fix up and Christa was touching up your faint blush. Nothing was out of place and you were ready. Mikasa presented to you your bouquet, consisting of yours and your beloved's favorite blossoms.
Bouquets in hand, your bridesmaids filed out of the room, knowing you would be following soon after. Turning to Rico, she gave you a quick hug, which was rare for her, and you hiccuped, emotions flitting around like a butterfly storm.
"It really is a shame they couldn't be here." Rico said, and you nodded.
"If only the flying weather wasn't so bad..." She trailed off. "Oh well, at least you can show them the pictures when they come back from their trip, yeah?"
You nodded again. Your parents' flight was delayed and the next flight here wasn't due until a week after the wedding. It couldn't be helped, but you knew they would have loved to be here more than anything.
"Okay, enough chit-chat. Seriously, this doesn't even feel like a romantic day what with all the girl power talk." Rico's bluntness was not lost to you.
A knock on the door roused you from the conversation. It must've been your grandfather, Pixis, who was going to escort you down the aisle in your father's place. Rico waved as she opened the door, leaving to make her way to the pews.
"Is that really little (First)?" Pixis asked good naturedly.
You laughed. " Honestly, I'm not that little!" Pixis nodded at you with a nostalgic look in his eyes.
"No, I suppose you're not. Anyway, are you ready to go?"
Nodding your head, Pixis smiled. "I'll go on ahead and meet you at the aisle." He said.
"Oh! And we can't forget the veil, can we? They'll see the dress right away, but we need to save the best for last." Pixis said, lowering the veil so that it hid most of your features. He couldn't see you clearly, but he just knew you were beaming up at him with your smile.
After he left, you took a few moments to collect yourself, repeatedly thinking to yourself, 'This is it, this is it, this is it.' And you left the room to enter the dim hallway.
The doors to the ceremony room were large and somewhat intimidating, but as you looked harder at them, you thought about how he was right on the other side of the door, the man that you'd be marrying in a matter of minutes.
Two men saw you approach and grasped the handles, motioning to open them at the same time. Breathing out a small 'thank you', the large doors opened, revealing you to the people inside and revealing the groom to you. You immediately sought each other's eyes, and your heartbeat accelerated at the familiar sight of freckles at the other end of the room, soft eyes glancing in your direction.
Gasps were audible as the spectators saw you in your dress and you walked over to Pixis, who was diligently waiting at the beginning of the aisle. Looping your arm with his, organs began to play that familiar tune played for the bride, and now it was playing for you.
Soft step after soft step, you inched closer to you destination and closer to Marco, who appeared just as anxious for your arrival as you were. He took in your figure and noticed how heavenly you looked. More beautiful than any of his dreams could portray you. Alas, there was one obstacle stopping him from admiring you entirety.
If only that veil wasn't in place, hiding what he wanted to see most.
You were so close now and your mind was a flurry of wonderment on what was to come. A wedding marked the beginning of a new life. Who knows what could happen in the years to come? What was married life going to be like? Surely nothing too different, but then again, you've been wrong before.
All these whirring thoughts clouded your perception of distance and before you knew it, a soft tap on the shoulder from Pixis roused you from your reverie as he freed your arm and stepped back. Looking away from Pixis, your eyes locked with Marco's and you wondered why you even bothered to worry in the first place. He took your hand and led you to stand across from him, the contact making you blush.
As if that wasn't enough, he got down on one knee and kissed your hand in an act of chivalry as well as love.
You were smiling on the outside, but on the inside you were screaming your lungs out at his rather adorable mannerisms. Years of knowing Marco and none of that experience ever prepared you for his saintly actions. He always left you blushing happily as though it were the first day you had met.
Rising from the floor, Marco took both your hands in his, lightly brushing a thumb across your hand, and reached out to remove that troublesome veil.
Once it was removed, he quietly gasped, leaving you slightly confused. Was something wrong? Did your makeup smear? It didn't look that bad, did it?
Seeing the panic in your eyes, Marco suppressed a small chuckle as he leaned forward, whispering in your ear, "Your perfection blew me away, is all."
Your face reddened even more as the both of you faced the priest.
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to celebrate the union of Marco Bodt and (First) (Last)..." After some of the of the formal dialogue, your vows were said.
Yours came first and you doubt Marco's grin could've gotten wider if he tried. As you spoke, his eyes shined and it was almost as though he were restraining the desire to grab you in his arms and never let go. But ever the gentleman, he kept his arms behind his back tightly. A few snickers in good fun could be heard from Jean and Reiner as they pointed out Marco's blushing face. He was practically glowing as you finished the speech with a sincere "I love you, Marco Bodt."
Where you had the aid of cards, Marco recited from memory and your eyes widened. He remembered it all for the wedding?
He began softly, the audience of family and friends straining to hear.
"(First), if there was some way I could make it that I always knew you, I wouldn't hesitate to welcome you to all those years I lived without you. Sadly, those years without you will always exist, but I'm making a promise to you that a time like that will never happen again. I'm speaking the truth when I say I've loved you since the day I met you, even when you thought I was just some clumsy assistant at the office who spilled coffee on your reports," He softly chuckled and you grinned at the memory. "From that day on, I knew I wanted to be with you, any way I could. Your smile, your laugh, how your eyes light up whenever you talk about your dreams, it was like a breath of fresh air that gave me new life and through all those years, you've only proved even more how perfect you are whenever we spent time together. I loved every second we were side by side and how you're the kindest girl I've ever met."
You blinked away a few potential tears. Not possible, you thought. You weren't that kind at all, if he wanted to find a kinder person, he could have just looked in the mirror.
"You're the kindest person I know because after all we've been through, you're letting me love you until the end of time, and that's all I'll ever want. To be with you, (First). I promise to you I'll do everything in my power to give you a good life and protect you any in way I can, because you're the greatest thing that's ever happened to me." He smiled, warm brown eyes gazing at you and your heart swelled at the proud smile that adorned his freckled face.
"And so, it's a great honor to give you my life, (First), I truly love you too much for words." He finished, closing his eyes with a relieved smile at the fact he did not mess up in front of you.
His head snapped up, however, when he heard a sniffle coming from you. Your head was hung and he could see your chest rising erratically. Eyes wide, he was mortified at the possibility that he had somehow messed up and made you cry. He immediately grabbed your hands and would've began apologizing if he hadn't heard a subtle chuckle.
You met his eyes and carefully wiped away the tears before they began to ruin your makeup. He was greatly relieved when he saw your smile and he smiled back.
"If there be any objection to this union, speak now or forever hold your peace." The priest said. You and Marco paid no heed, but rather spent that silent moment staring at each other. He looked incredibly dashing in his tux that fit him amazingly and in turn he looked at you like you were his own personal angel, clad in white.
"In that case," The priest spoke up, gathering your attention, although Marco's eyes flitted back to you in no time, anticipating what was next with great fervor. "I now pronounce you husband and wife." You felt like jumping up at down at the words. Did he really just say that? You couldn't believe it!
"You may now kiss the bri-"
Before he could even finish that word, Marco grasped your waist and spun you around in a dip, fervently pressing his lips to yours as you wrapped your arms around his neck with his other hand settling on the small of your back and kissed him back with equal intensity.
Whistles and cheers immediately erupted from the crowd, including the inappropriate catcalls from Reiner. You could hear Christa sobbing like there was no tomorrow, but at that moment it was like none of them were there.
The kiss lasted for thirty seconds and when it came time to breathe again, you and Marco parted. He still held you close as the two of you began walking back down the aisle together, with the sound of family and friends celebrating behind you. As the limo door opened, Marco scooped you up in his arms, pecking your lips again, causing the both of you to laugh, and entered the vehicle, leaving to the building where the reception would take place.
Later into the night, as people ate, drank, chatted and enjoyed themselves, you and Marco were enjoying your first dance as husband and wife. The song was moderately paced and soon enough everyone else joined in as lights gave the room a lively atmosphere.
Marco spun you, even though the dance didn't really call for it and he pulled you in a little too quickly, causing you to stumble into his chest.
"Oh, sorry!" He apologized, holding your hips in place, protectively, but you laughed it off and kissed his nose.
"Don't worry about it, we're married, remember?" You said. He smiled at you endearingly, brushing a hand against your cheek to which you moved closer to.
Leaning closer, he captured your lips in a sweet kiss for the upteenth time that day and you responded immediately.
"How could I forget?" He murmured against your lips.
Ahhhhhhhhh this has been in my stash for the longest time now. For some reason, motivation to finish this struck me today! ...And I ended up ignoring everything else I have to do.
But putting that aside, I've had this idea for a while now and it really is too cute to handle. The number of wedding Marco fics needs to outweigh the death Marco fics, greatly. Also, I hope it's clear that I'm a spineless baby and I couldn't handle having Reader-chan's parents dead, so instead, they're only on a trip 0v0 I just felt that I wanted this story to be fluff and having that sadness would kinda dampen it.
I don't feel like I did the idea enough justice, but I hope you all enjoyed reading it!
Please leave a comment if you liked it, I always love getting feedback!

The U.S. Department of Justice law enforcement officials from around the country have renewed calls for legislation mandating that Internet service providers (ISPs) retain certain customer usage data for up to two years, Computerworld reports. Those calls came at a House Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday, where members indicated self-regulation would be their preferred path. From a privacy perspective, John Morris of the Center for Democracy and Technology cautioned that law enforcement would have a "massive amount of information" on presumably innocent Internet users. While privacy advocates are sounding an alarm over what one expert described as "dragnet surveillance by the government," a justice official said, "any privacy concerns about data retention should be balanced against the needs of law enforcement to keep the public safe."

It takes five minutes to set up your Pro Tools Preferences, but getting them right can smooth your workflow and even allow you to run more tracks from your hard drive.
In this month's Pro Tools workshop article we're going to take a closer look at some of the application's Preferences and work out what the various settings do. Some of these can make a big difference to both the sound and the ergonomics of Pro Tools, and as we'll see, it's possible to come up with a general-purpose set of 'recommended' settings that should give the best results for most users.
The Pro Tools Preferences window can be reached from the Setups menu and has seven pages or panes, which can be accessed by clicking the list across the top of the Preferences window. In this article we're going to concentrate on the first five of these pages. We're not going to go through every setting here, as the Pro Tools manual does a very good job of that. Instead, we're going to review how some of the settings can affect the way Pro Tools functions, and look at some of the other settings that might have escaped your attention, especially where they have consequences that aren't obvious.
This page, not surprisingly, enables you to configure how Pro Tools will display various options:
This section contains some of the options that I find cause the most problems with Preferences settings, especially the first two:
The other function in Classic relates to recalling Memory Locations. In Classic mode, to recall Memory Location 2 you simply need to press the '2' key on the numeric pad, followed by the '.' key.
Transport mode retains the shuttle lock functionality from Classic mode but adds a range of single-button transport functions to the keypad: '0' becomes Play and Stop, '1' is Rewind, '2' is Fast Forward, '3' is Record Enable, '4' turns Loop Playback on and off, '5' turns Loop Record on and off, and '6' toggles Quick Punch. However, to be able to recall a Memory Location in Transport mode you have to first press '.' and then the location number, and then '.' again. I keep trying Transport mode, but I can never remember to hit the full stop first, and because of this, Classic still tends to be my preferred Numeric Keypad Mode.
The third option is Shuttle, which is available only on HD systems. It enables a non-locking version of shuttle lock, where you have to hold down the keys to shuttle back and forward: '1' shuttles back and '3' shuttles forward at low speed; '4' shuttles back and '6' shuttles forward at normal speed; and '7' shuttles back and '9' shuttles forward at fast speed. You don't get the transport functions and you need to type a full stop, then the required number, and a full stop again to recall Memory Locations. I find this setting clunky to use on the keyboard and my guess is that it was done to aid shortcuts from a control surface.
So why does Pro Tools pepper the files all over the drive like that? If you don't tell it how long you are going to record for, Pro Tools assumes it is going to be for a long time. To take a simplified example of a freshly formatted drive and a four-track Session, Pro Tools will start recording the audio for track one as near to the start of the drive as possible. Then track two's file will start a quarter of the way through the drive, track three will start halfway through the drive and track four will start three-quarters of the way through the drive. This is so that there is the maximum amount of space between each file, giving you the longest record duration possible before the drive fills up, without the files having to be fragmented (split up) to fit them all on to the drive. However, the down side of this is that the files are spread right across the drive, even if the record duration is short, as it was on the drive in the screen shown.
If you tell Pro Tools how long you want to record for, either by using the Limit To option or by highlighting the record duration in the Edit Window, then Pro Tools knows how long the files are going to be, and can bunch them up much closer together, so making life a lot easier for playback. I would recommend, unless you are routinely recording long concerts and so on, that that you set the Limit To option to a sensible amount. For example, if you're tracking a song that's five minutes in length, you could argue that you won't be recording longer than that in one single pass, so you could set Limit To at 10 minutes and still be safe. Remember, Limit To sets the maximum record duration for one take, not the project length.
