Karielle and The Return of Magic

Chapter OneThe first thing Karielle noticed was the pungent smell of pine. Mingled with it was the woodsy scent of fallen leaves and soil. A slight breeze pulled at tendrils of her long, white hair. A small thought entered her mind that she would now have to braid it again.
Kari opened her eyes. She hadn't been aware they were closed. All around her, trees grew tall and straight. Immediately she knew where they were. This was the Haldenar Forest.
Turning, she watched as Jasper, standing a few feet away, opened his eyes also and smiled at her before taking in his surroundings.
"We are just outside the walls of the Keep." He said.
"Yes. I can feel the magical barrier set so long ago. I must dispel it so that we can enter the compound."
"This is strange, Kari," Jasper was looking about himself now. "In my former life I had no magic, but when you mentioned the barrier just now, I could feel it too."
"Don't you remember Ethra telling you that when we returned here you would also be gifted with some magical abilities?"
Jasper was reaching out his hands as if searching for something. "I remember, but now that I have the tangible evidence, it is strange to me."
Kari grinned at her husband as she commented, "Be careful whenever you use that power, my love. It can be quite tricky until you become adept. Now, wait while I search for the lock placed on the barrier. It should be right around here someplace."
Jasper and Kari walked out of the edge of the trees into bright sunlight. Turning to the right, the couple walked several paces until she could detect the barrier.
Kari reached out her hand and ran it along the threads of magic that made the barrier wall. As she touched the strands, a soft musical sound filled the air. "Ah, here it is."
Only her trained eye could decipher the difference in the air surrounding the magic that had protected Hawke's Reach for at least two hundred years. The barrier was a strange thing. Although it surrounded the entire area encompassing Hawke's Reach, anyone coming near would not have been able to detect anything. They would not have seen the tall, imposing castle spread over a vast area, or of the grounds surrounding it. They would not have detected the stone wall encompassing it or the huge number of cottages within those walls. Nor would they have been able to see the barracks, smithy, stables, gardens, and all the other edifices that stood within.
If they had approached the barrier, there would have been a slight evidence of something different. The intruder might have felt slightly strange, as if a hand was holding them from going further. A thought would have gently entered their mind that they should turn back, or change their direction to the right or left. In their mind it might have seemed as if they had come upon a mountain or impassable grove of trees. After all, they would have been traveling through Haldenar Forest. Whatever the sensation, anyone other than those gifted with the magical ability to penetrate the barrier, would have passed right by it and not known what lay beyond.
Small animals, birds and the like, would have been able to fly over or go through since they would pose no problem to the area, but larger animals and humans would have been gently turned away.
Karielle, now touching the found spot, caused a slight shimmer to appear. Even the music changed its tune. Smiling now, Kari made a slight turn to the left with one finger of her right hand, then using her left hand, traced along an invisible line for about the space of one's arm. Pushing, she felt the barrier give and break apart.
"There!" she motioned for Jasper to come to her. "The doorway is open for us to enter. "It will close around us again once we're through so that no one else will be able to penetrate the magic, but I might change it once we're sure of things."
Jasper followed his wife as they came through the doorway and there, before them, stood the huge castle wall. The small gate that led to the kitchens was just a short distance and it was to this gate the couple moved.
Looking upward, Kari saw how ivy had grown to cover nearly all the stone of the Keep. There had been no human habitation since the last descendant had left over two hundred years previously. The castle had become too large for the last family of Hawke's and the barrier had been placed to keep anyone else from disturbing it.
Silence permeated everything. "It's a bit unnerving, my love." Jasper commented as he walked to the small gate, released the latch and walked through it to the kitchen gardens, now barren except for weeds and hardy herbs grown wild. "I'm so used to there being a bustling community of people all around, soldiers going to, from, or walking their posts, servants going to and fro, the smith hammering iron at his forge, and animals everywhere. To see no one about or hearing the sounds of everyday normal life is so strange."
The door to the lower kitchen was slightly ajar and it was here the couple entered the Keep's lowest level. This was the former storage area where crocks of meats, bins of fruits and vegetables, kegs of wines, ciders, and ales, and bales of grain had once been stored. The crocks and kegs still stood, lined up as they had always been, but were now quite empty.
It was strange that, even after so many years had passed, that Kari thought she could still smell the scent of winter apples and the pungency of other vegetables and wines.
A small set of steps led to the upper kitchen and as Kari and Jasper entered, there, spread before their eyes were the grills, the fire pits, the long work tables. The pots and skillets were still hanging from long metal hooks as if waiting for the cooks to pull them down for making stews, frying fish, boiling vegetables. The two large ovens that had brought forth many loaves of crusty bread, wonderful pies and meat tarts sat, cold and fireless, blackened doorways were all that hinted at what they had once been used for.
Jasper felt a slight sensation within his stomach and grinned. "Well, I'm sorry there isn't anyone preparing a meal right now. Being mortal again has my gastric juices awakening."
"Oh, you!" Kari laughed. "You're just imagining things. We were told we wouldn't feel hunger for quite some time. In fact, we probably don't have to eat at all to sustain ourselves, if we don't want to."
"But I so enjoyed eating all those delicious meals prepared by Tesler." Jasper whined. Why, can't you just taste those sugary apple tarts and those luscious fresh strawberries swimming in clotted cream?"
Kari hadn't heard him this time as she had walked across the kitchen and into the large dining hall beyond.
From there, she went into the main entrance hall where the huge wooden front door had so often welcomed guests.
The halls were so very quiet. Footsteps echoed on the stone floors in the emptiness. Jasper stepped forward and took one of Karielle's hands in his.
"It is so different from the past," Jasper almost whispered as he and Karielle entered the main hall of Hawke's Reach. To Kari, it was a step back in Time.
The tapestries, protected by magic, hung from the walls, still bright and beautiful. Pictures of the Hawke ancestry hung along the walls of the stairways going upward, stern faces or smiling, depending upon the original artist's whim. Those of Karielle's father, Karielle herself, Jasper, their two children as well as all the Hawke's who had descended from them were watching from their respective frames as if in anticipation for what would be happening next. The hand worked furniture lined the edges of the rooms, their surfaces glistening from long years of polishing. Back in the dining room, the long dining table with chairs neatly tucked around it, graced the large dining hall as if in anticipation of a gathering of favored guests and family.
There was no Hannah, the housekeeper, of course, to greet them. No Rolgrin coming out from his study, pipe in hand, no Tesler or Bella cooking up something delicious to eat from the kitchens. The Keep was silent except for the couple's footsteps echoing eerily on the stone floors.
At the foot of the winding stairway that led to the sleeping suites above, Kari stopped. Rubbing the well worn banister with the palm of her hand, she sighed. "My ghost would wander these halls after I left mortality," she whispered. "I missed you and the children so, but found it hard to leave all this behind until you and Ethra came for me. Oh Jasper, what is all this about? Must we always be summoned when our Earth can't take care of itself? We were happy in our new world, weren't we?"
Jasper pulled his wife close to his broad, muscular chest, held her tightly and breathed into her thick, beautiful hair. "My love, we were chosen for a special reason. You were always the gifted one and I was meant only to love you. When one is gifted in such a way, much is expected of them. Look at it this way, we have been given a quest. Let us accept our lot graciously and see what fortune awaits us. For one thing," he said, looking around them, "We will have to find servants for the Keep once again."
Kari leaned against him and ran her fingers over his arm. "We won't need servants, Jasper. Everything we'll need you or I can bring forth with magic. When we're hungry, I'll put food on the table. If we want to change our appearance, all we'll have to do is think what we want to be. This isn't like when we were mortals, my husband. Our bodies are changed. Yes, we will eat when or if it's necessary to help sustain us while here on this plane, especially when we are in the presence of others, but we must maintain secrecy here at Hawke's Reach. No one must know it is again occupied."
Jasper sighed. "This coming back will take a great deal of getting used to, I'm afraid. I wonder if our cache of coin is still behind the same hidden wall? For that matter, I wonder what coin is being used in this time frame? Come, I'll race you up the stairs."
Picking up her long skirts, Kari laughed, "I'll beat you like I always did, even in long skirts."
"Oh, ho!" Jasper roared as he quickly took two steps at a time and was soon far above her on the steps. "You just think you were faster than me. I always used to let you win."
At the top of the stairs, the couple stood giggling for a moment, not even breathless. In former times, both would have had to hang on to the banister to catch their breath before moving down the long hallway to their suite. This time, however, they looked at the hand-woven carpeting, the silent faces gazing from framed pictures, the small tables holding vases, now devoid of flowers, or candlesticks, still holding thick yellowed candles.
There were no laughing children running to greet them, no bustling servants carrying freshly pressed sheets or laundered towels, only silence.
The décor in each room had been changed, of course, to the tastes and desires of the tenants who had lived and slept in them over the years. The room that had once been Sarah's still must have belonged to a girl in the end. Ruffles ran along the curtained bedposts and windows. The colors were soft pinks and whites. Rolly's room had apparently been last used by an older person. The colors were tans and deep browns. A strong smell of tobacco still hovered in the air. The coverlet on the bed was plain, yet durable, denoting someone not caring much about appearances as long as things were serviceable.
Kari noticed a small book lying upon a table near the fireplace. Picking it up, she read, 'The Raising of Hawks and Other Birds of Prey For Hunting."
"Well," she said as she showed the book to Jasper. "It seems someone was still interested in the aviary."
"I will go out to check the cages eventually," Jasper quipped. "I doubt there are still any birds there, but it will be interesting to see how things have fared. I also want to see what condition the barracks and weapons sheds are in."
When the couple got to the suite of rooms they had shared for so many years, they were surprised to see everything much as it had been. It was almost as if the room had been made into a shrine. Had no one used these suites over the years? It certainly seemed so.
The small library of books Kari had always enjoyed reading when resting, was still on the shelves along one wall. The large blue and green quilt with the crest of Hawke's Reach embroidered in the center lay quietly across the broad curtained bed. The curtains had been pulled back as if the bed were waiting for Kari and Jasper to just crawl into it.
"Look, Kari," Jasper had crossed the room and opened the large amore where they had kept their clothing. Kari's dresses were still hanging there. Everything was fresh as if newly sewn. Jasper's side had his jackets and the shelves contained neatly folded trousers and shirts. Drawers held stockings and undergarments.
"I don't understand," Kari said as she ran her fingers over a shawl she had especially loved. "Nothing has aged one bit. It's as if all our things were magically preserved along with the Keep."
"It does look that way, doesn't it?" Jasper renewed his search.
Moving along the wall to another small table, Jasper moved it to one side and pulled back the tapestry hanging there. Pressing a wooden carving depicting a grinning gargoyle, he watched as the wall silently slid open revealing a small room. Just inside and sitting upon a sturdy table sat a large, plain wooden chest with a metal lock hanging from it. Jasper pressed a hidden button at the back of the table and a small drawer opened to present the key to the chest lock.
"Well, I guess no one ever discovered our secret little hidden room." Jasper chuckled. Opening the chest, the couple gazed upon a very large accumulation of coin, jewels, and right on top, an ornate dagger, such as one would wear to a dress affair. It had been presented to Jasper by Rolgrin, Kari's father, to award him for his bravery at the destruction of the evil towers.
Just behind the small table and hanging from a peg on the wall, Jasper lifted up the ornately worked leather sheath that held his beloved sword. Pulling it from its covering, the blade glimmered brightly as if just polished. Jasper had always taken excellent care of all his weapons. It was a matter of extreme pride with him. Standing against the wall just below the sword was his mighty battle axe and next to it, the long staff with a long, sharp blade fastened at one end.
After returning his sword to its sheath and placing it on a table within their room, he went back to the chest. Taking several of the coins and placing them in a pocket, Jasper replaced the lock then exited the tiny room and slid the panel back in place. When the small table had been once again put in front of the tapestry, no one would have ever known what rested behind it.
By the time the couple had totally inspected the interior of the Keep and then some of the grounds outside, night had cast its shadows over the land. There was no sense in venturing outside of Hawke's Reach until the following day, so Kari and Jasper retired to the rooms they had occupied for so many years to reminisce.
Chapter TwoWith the morning, the couple arose early to watch the sun rise over the horizon and begin filtering through the trees of Haldenar Forest. Kari delighted in listening to the sleepy calls of awakening birds. She listened to the small chitterlings, grunts and scolding of all the small animals as they searched for their morning meals. Far away she just barely heard the call of a wolf as it bid the moon farewell. A small ache entered her heart as she recalled her beloved wolf friends, Worg, Mist and Tanglefoot. They had never said goodbye to her so long ago. They had just simply vanished into the forest and into her past. Perhaps it had been best that way, she thought. She had always hated goodbyes. It was always better to remember loved ones as they had been while with you.
"I miss you, dear friends," she whispered to the morning breeze. Jasper gave her shoulder a squeeze in quiet response. He knew who she was thinking of.
It was decided that today Kari and Jasper would make a visit to the magic school and hospice first before venturing into the city of Rolgrin. The school was one of the main reasons they were back, was it not? Kari was most anxious to see just what was being taught there.
It was also decided, by Kari, of course, that the couple would take on the appearance of a middle aged couple dressed in simple garb. They didn't want to draw too much attention to themselves. For the traveling, Kari cloaked them both in a vapor of invisibility. All she had to do then, was imagine the small woods near the edge of the school and they were there.
"Whew!" Jasper held on to Kari for a few moments appearing to suffer a bit of vertigo. In reality, he was amazed. "That was an experience I knew you were able to do, but to be a part of it is another matter."

Niseko Weiss
Mountain stats
Lift count :
Niseko Weiss is the perfect place for intermediate powder seekers looking for their first Cat Boarding experience. It is an old ski area with disused chair lifts that has been converted into a small Cat Ski/Board operation. It is located close to the well-known linked resorts of Niseko and is about 2 hours drive from Sapporo City.
There are no groomed courses here, just simply lots of untracked fresh powdery lines to be had. Niseko Weiss gets over 12 meters of snow each season and although the terrain isn't particularly challenging, riding fresh lines every single run is something to be cherished. For the dirt-cheap price of ¥4800 (that's the cost of a full day pass!) you get 7 runs of about 800m vertical each.

Schoolboy takes up the challenge
Relevant offers
Southerners at War
War memorials around the world are there to remind future generations to remember their predecessors' sacrifices, and none illustrates this point more poignantly than the Southland boy who, at the age of 11, led the charge to restore the Kauana memorial to its former glory.
Logan Begg was a pupil at Limehills School when he applied for one of the $5000 grants being handed out by the Government to mark Year of the Veteran in 2006.
His application was successful, and now, six years later, the memorial looks the way it should – like we have remembered them.
In 2006, with Logan at the helm, locals formed a working bee to ensure the memorial was spruced up in time for Anzac Day that year, planting donated trees, plastering and painting the memorial itself, and building a fence out of wood also donated for the cause. Bark chips and a lime walkway – courtesy of the nearby Fernhill Limeworks – completed the picture.
Now 17 and a student at Central Southland College, Logan admits he doesn't have much to do with the memorial these days – a couple of Kauana residents take care of keeping it tidy and his mother Caroline can sometimes be found doing the gardening around it.
But, unconsciously, his words hint at how much his decision to do something about the sad state of the memorial, withering into obscurity, meant to the people of Kauana.
"I think they thought it was pretty good that someone had taken control and did something about it. It was sort of the last thing in town ... the Kauana Hall was in the process of getting knocked down, so they just didn't want that to happen to the memorial as well."
"It looks a lot nicer now, rather than sort of a run-down memorial."
One of his great-grandfathers and two great-uncles are commemorated on the memorial – part of the reason he took such a keen interest.
And while an Anzac Day service has not been held at the memorial for some time, he continues to lay poppies at its base each year.
Teacher Kirsty Rodger still remembers when Logan first began working on the project to restore the Kauana memorial.
Her pupils were asked to come up with a landscaping idea as part of a competition to win plantings for their chosen site, and Logan opted to draw up plans for giving Kauana memorial a much-needed facelift.
Although he did not win that competition, when Ms Rodger heard the Government was giving out funding as part of the Year of the Veteran she realised Logan's social studies project was a perfect candidate.
During the Christmas holidays, Logan worked hard to put together his application, and even got to be on a first-name basis with then-Minister of Veterans Affairs Rick Barker, she said.
"His letters would start `Dear Rick'."
Logan worked hard and gained a lot of important skills for somebody so young, having to learn how to use a spreadsheet, stick to a budget, and organise that year's Anzac Day service, which was held at the memorial, she said.
Like those in the Kauana community, she was proud to see Logan's hard work come to fruition.
"At the end of the day, every time he drives past that war memorial he can see what he did, and that's pretty special."
– Sources: Logan Begg, Kirsty Rodger
The Kauana War Memorial was originally built on the highest point of Fernhill after World War I, where it stood for 20 years before the Fernhill Lime Company, which started in 1941, deemed the site potentially unstable.
The memorial's marble tablets were then moved to and stored in the Kauana Hall until they were updated and installed on a new monument after World War II. In 1956, the memorial, which recognises the service of 46 men from Kauana involved in both world wars, underwent repair work to stop it from subsiding. It was upgraded again in 2006. – Information: New Zealand History Online, Ministry for Culture and Heritage

Schools show spirit at Tiller Days Parade
Irvine's Orchard Hills School and Beckman High School were among the 130 groups that proceeded along Main Street in a stream of bands, colorful costumes, songs and dance routines during the recent Tustin Tiller Days Parade.
Antique tractors were a fan favorite, and representatives from Shriners Hospitals for Children wore bright hats and drove miniature cars. Beckman's band won first place for drum major, first place for color guard, and won the sweepstakes and Tustin Unified School District awards.
It was the fourth consecutive sweepstakes win for the Beckman band.

Ronaldo questions Fifa's stance on racism
Zurich: Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo has questioned how effective Fifa and Uefa`s campaign against racism is, and insisted that he does not consider Lionel Messi a rival.
The duo are up for the Ballon d`Or award on Monday night, though Fifa has been in the news this week after president Sepp Blatter criticised AC Milan`s decision to walk off after racial abuse against Pro Patria.
Ronaldo, speaking at the pre-award press conference in Zurich, insisted that racism must be stamped out in football but believes the decision to leave the field of play is an entirely subjective one.
"In my honest opinion, I think this [racism] cannot happen at this moment in football," he told reporters.
"All the time, Fifa and Uefa speak about fair play and against racism, so why does it still happen? It's incredible, this cannot exist; it's just a football match.
"It's not good for the fans or anybody. We should live in peace, all of us."
Ronaldo, when asked about Boateng's decision to walk off, added: "It was a very personal decision by him. If he was angry or sad, that's his decision.
"I can give you lots of examples happening in stadia today when you cannot simply walk off the pitch.
"You have to cope with these kind of fans and perhaps a few people have a few screws loose. I couldn't give you a precise answer, whether you walk off the pitch depends on the person."
Barcelona forward Messi is the bookies' favourite to win the award for the fourth time in a row, with Ronaldo only getting his hands on the accolade once (in 2008), but the Blancos star insisted that he won`t lose any sleep if he fails to win.
"I have a clear conscience; I must say this award is not the end of life," he said. "Life goes on and we have to learn from our lessons - if others win then that's fine.
"With regards to what I have done in the last year, I think things went well, we won the league. Regardless of what happens today, I'm going to be the same man that I've been so far."
This award is the sixth year in a row that Ronaldo and Messi have both been included in the final trio of nominees, but the former Manchester United attacker believes that there is no real rivalry between the pair.
Ronaldo added: "I don't feel that I'm frustrated by Messi. He does his work for his team and so do I for mine.
"As far as I'm concerned, I don't feel much rivalry, at least not personally. We're here to win, we're part of football and that's what counts."
When asked why he did not select Messi in the voting process, Ronaldo denied having actually cast his vote.
"I didn't have a chance to vote myself this year as I got injured during training with the team that day," he said.
The Portuguese star was even asked where Madrid`s head coach Jose Mourinho was and why he had chosen not to come to Zurich for the award ceremony, but Ronaldo replied with a smile: "It's a secret!"

Retail Space at Annabelle Selldorf's Bowery Condo Hits the Market

It took five days after sales went live this month for a buyer to snap up the 4,000 square-foot penthouse atop Annabelle Selldorf's 13-story Bowery condo. The literal crown jewel is currently under contract for a whopping $17 million, which annihilates records for the area. Two weeks later, the 8,439 square-foot retail space in the base […]

(20) Utah (10-2) vs. (10) Boise State (11-1)
Today, 6 p.m. (MT) Sam Boyd Stadium
TurfTech Surface Las Vegas
TV: ESPN Radio: 700 AM
55 degrees with 70 percent chance of rain, winds 11 mph
For Boise State ... The Broncos came oh-so-close to making a third trip to the Bowl Championship Series. A decisive win could prove they belonged in the big show.
For Utah ... A chance at redemption that could ease the pain of a 47-7 loss at home to TCU in November. The Utes could use the momentum heading into the Pac-12.
For Boise State ... The Broncos have the nation's No. 2 scoring offense. They average 46.6 points per game. Boise State's defense is No. 4 overall, allowing just 13.5 ppg.
For Utah ... The Utes own the longest active bowl victory streak in the nation. They've won nine straight dating back to a win over Fresno State in the 1999 Las Vegas Bowl.
For Boise State... The Broncos appear to have advantages across the board. Question is, will they come to play after coming up short in another BCS bid?
For Utah... The Utes have won 16 straight games when having eight or more days to prepare under Kyle Whittingham.
Kellen Moore, Boise State: The Heisman Trophy finalist is second in the nation in pass efficiency with a 185.04 rating. The junior averages 290.4 yards of total offense per game.
Terrance Cain, Utah: The senior will get the start at quarterback in place of the injured Jordan Wynn. Will his career with the Utes end with a 10th victory or a second loss?
Boise State's D-line vs. Utah's O-line: The Broncos are second in the nation with 45 sacks. The Utes, meanwhile, have given up just eight all season — fifth fewest in the country.
Boise State: Tight end Tommy Gallarda (foot) is doubtful and linebacker Byron Hout (foot) will not play.
Utah: Quarterback Jordan Wynn (shoulder) and left tackle John Cullen (forearm) will not play.
The Utes open the 2011 season at home against Montana State on Sept. 1 before ushering in Pac-12 play the next week at USC.

We Had nothing to complain about. We were friendly welcomed.
I wish I had visited Praha next month, but unforunately I made a mistake and book this apartment for a month earlier. 5 minutes after that I told Olga and Emil about my error and asked them to understand my situation and refund me the whole reservation (as there is a clause and an * that allow wimdu to do it, with the permision of the host, also in estrict cancelation policy). They didn't, rhey prefered to earn the money instead of helping me although I told them that wothout the reservation money I will have to resing to the flights for next month due to the limited budget, as I already did.
Will never recomend such kind of people for hosting any of my friends.
Really nice apartment with everything included.
The hosts are very very friendly and nice. The apartment was clean and tidy; it locates in a residential area, 15-20 mins walking distance to the Wenzel Square. I will definitely rent this nice apartment for my next trip to Prague.
A really nice apartment. Close to centrum. :) We will recommend this apartment to others, who needs a place to sleep, when they visit Prague.
Great stay lovely apartment within walking distance of everything found managers to be very friendly and of great help would highly recom
It was a perfect stay. Emil was so friendly to wait for us. We had some traffic and arrived a bit later than planned but everything was superb.
The apartement was very clean and is perfectly located. Food and shopping centers are just steps away. If you want a good apartement with everything near by, this is the perfect apartement.
we will come back for sure if we visit prague again.
Very clean and convenient apartment.
We were very comfortable here and had no real issues. There is no living area so everyone is congregated in the kitchen. However you are in Prague to see the sights and not sit in the flat.
Would happily stay there again.
The women in the office were very helpful.
The hosts were very accommodating and helpful in planning our trip. They even made arrangements to pick us up from the airport, which was a great help since none of us were familiar with the area. There was some confusion with the initial encounter to get the keys, but that was mainly due to communication barriers. Emil was very nice and had maps and suggestions for places to go to eat, shop, etc... For the apartment itself, you couldn't beat the location. It was very central to everything, so for that reason the place was ideal. The apartment was nice, though the building, entry, and stairwell were in severe need of some cleaning and painting. The initial entrance into the building was a bit worrisome and we were concerned that the apartment was going to be in the same condition. It was obvious that there was some renovation occurring in the building so that contributed to the conditions. Once inside the apartment, it looked very much like the pictures online. The decor was nice and there was plenty of room throughout the apartment. There was a loft area that had a large living area and two bedrooms, as well as a bedroom on the first floor. The sofas upstairs and downstairs could also be used for sleeping. It would be a great find for those traveling to Prague with multiple people. There is only one bathroom, though. I would definitely rent this place again, but hope that the renovations to the building improved the overall look of the place. Overall, it was a good experience.
The apartment and its location were very nice and welcoming. Olga welcomed us in her office and gave great advise for sightseeing and hidden treasures of Prague. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Whimsical Windoodles
Windoodles is a tumblog project by artist Garrett Miller which aims to bring a bit of "dry erase markers and joy" to your browser.
Using temporary markers and windows, Miller draws little figures such as Spiderman scaling walls or cats peeking over horizons. The drawings are cunningly placed and a bit cheeky.
At just under two weeks old, the blog showcases Miller's background in photography and design but his inner child is what makes the doodles work so well.
The charm of the idea is quickly spreading, and followers are starting to copy Miller's idea. The Submissions page for Windoodles encourages its followers to "Find inner creativity. Doodle on a window. Avoid permanent markers. Submit."

OMAHA, Neb., Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* invested more than $90 million in its Nebraska wireless and wireline networks from 2010 through 2012, with a focus on expanding 4G LTE mobile Internet coverage and enhancing the overall performance of its networks.**
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120612/DA23287LOGO)
AT&T has made more than 175 wireless network upgrades in six key categories in Nebraska during 2012, including activating new cell sites, adding capacity, upgrading cell sites to provide fast 4G LTE mobile Internet speeds, deploying high-capacity Ethernet connections to cell sites, and adding or upgrading Distributed Antenna Systems, which boost wireless coverage and capacity in buildings and at major venues like convention halls or sports arenas.
"We know our customers depend on us for fast, reliable mobile Internet connections at home, work and everywhere in between," said Hardmon Williams, AT&T vice president and general manager for Nebraska, Minnesota and the Northern Plains. "Delivering for our Nebraska customers is a top priority and our ongoing investment here is designed to deliver a superior mobile Internet experience, encompassing speed, coverage and reliability."
AT&T launched 4G LTE in the Omaha area in September, 2012. AT&T 4G LTE is the latest generation of wireless network technology and provides faster mobile Internet speeds and improved performance on a variety of mobile smartphones and tablets.
The AT&T 4G LTE network has been nationally recognized for its speed and coverage. AT&T 4G LTE delivered faster average download speeds than any of the competitors in PCWorld's most recent 13-market speed tests, and telecommunications industry analyst firm Frost and Sullivan awarded AT&T its North American Mobile Network Strategy Award for the second year in a row in 2012.
"One of the reasons Nebraska has become such a dynamic place to live, work, and conduct business, can be attributed to the contributions of companies such as AT&T," said Barry Kennedy, Nebraska Chamber of Commerce. "AT&T's continued investment in our state's technological infrastructure makes possible the efficient communications and connectivity that are keys to building and strengthening Nebraska's business community."
"We're proud to invest in Nebraska and expand our wireless broadband network to support growing demand for the latest wireless devices and capabilities," said Beth Canuteson, regional vice president for AT&T Nebraska. "We'd like to applaud policymakers for seeking a pro-business environment that provides regulatory certainty and encourages private investment in our state's communications infrastructure. This type of investment helps spur economic development, job creation and greater access to healthcare, education and other vital services."
Planned Investment to Expand Reach of Wireless and Wired Broadband
AT&T recently launched Project Velocity IP (VIP), a three-year investment initiative to expand and enhance its wireless and wireline IP broadband networks. As part of Project VIP, AT&T plans to increase the density of its wireless network by deploying more than 10,000 macro sites, more than 1,000 distributed antenna systems, and more than 40,000 small cells. Through this initiative, we also plan to:
- Expand 4G LTE to cover more than 300 million people by year-end 2014
- Expand the AT&T wired IP network to 57 million customer locations, covering 75 percent of customer locations in its wired service area by year-end 2015
- Expand the AT&T fiber network to reach 1 million additional business locations by year-end 2015
For more information about AT&T's coverage in Nebraska or anywhere in the U.S., consumers can visit the AT&T Coverage Viewer. Using the online tool, AT&T customers can measure quality of coverage from a street address, intersection, ZIP code or even a landmark.

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah businessman Peter Mouskondis was a guest of the White House during Tuesday night's State of the Union address.
Mouskondis is chief executive officer and president of Nicholas & Co., a family-owned and operated broadline food service distribution company. The third-generation company employs more than 500 people.
Mouskondis, who according to published reports started working for the family business when he was 12 years old, was seated in the box with first lady Michelle Obama, Jill Biden and Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser to the president.
Invited guests "represent the stories of millions of Americans across the country who are working hard to better their communities, improve their own economic outcomes and help restore opportunity for all," a White House press release said.
Nicholas & Co. has been recognized in Utah and nationally for its culture of mutual respect and care of employees, emphasizing work-life balance and benefits, including maternity, paternity and bereavement leave.
"Our success at Nicholas & Co. is directly related to our family-friendly approach and the work of my grandmother, mother and wife in making work-life balance an essential part of our culture," Mouskondis is quoted in the White House press release.
Founded more than 70 years ago, the company serves the food service industry in six states and carries more than 10,000 products, according to the company's website.
"We have assembled resources that include a team of food service experts, state-of-the-art facilities, cutting-edge technology, exemplary food safety practices, and refined efficiencies. We are committed to remaining family-owned, which allows us to answer to Main Street, not Wall Street," the website states.
In the past 12 years, the company has received numerous awards, including the Sloan Award for Excellence in Workplace Effectiveness and Flexibility; the Utah Department of Workforce Services Work/Life Award Legacy; and the Utah Business Magazine's Best Companies to Work For.
Mouskondis could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

If you know your history, it's somewhat ironic. Next week, thousands of Alaska Natives will descend on Juneau and force legislators from their homes.
Celebration brings thousands of people to Juneau every other year for a series of spectacular events. This year, it coincides with the unpreceded extension of the Alaska Legislature's session. Lawmakers have passed 130 days of work in Juneau and are well on their way to 140.
The following editorial first appeared in the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner:
The Alaska Legislature has approved a budget compromise that avoids a shutdown of state government on July 1.
It may be a fatal mistake.
In December, Gov. Bill Walker spoke to the state in a televised address. In that address, he presented a complete fiscal plan, something that would wean Alaska from its reliance on oil revenue and erase a $4 billion deficit.
He told us that action must be taken this year. Failing to act will leave Alaska in uncertainty, and uncertainty is the No. 1 enemy of sustainability and growth.
Summer. Many Alaskans live for it. It's three months out of the year when the days are warmer, the skies are bluer and the daylight never ends. Fishing, camping, kayaking, hiking, swatting mosquitoes — you name it — we cram as much as we can into those three months. Locals and tourists flood our highways all hours of the day soaking in all that Alaska has to offer — opening more opportunity for vehicle collisions. Hence, the 100 Deadliest Days of Summer.
We all know Alaska is in a bind: oil prices are currently stabilized, but at a relatively low level, and our state income from oil is now in the neighborhood of $705 million unrestricted general funds (UGF). Add in $500 million from non-petroleum revenue and we have about $1.2 billion UGF. While that sounds like a lot of money, we are looking at a General Fund budget of between $4.3 billion and $5 billion (there is an outstanding question of whether we pay $700 million in cash tax credits to oil and gas companies).
Earlier this month, Alaska's House of Representatives passed a bipartisan oil and gas tax credit reform bill by a 2-1 margin. The story here isn't so much that half of the House Republicans broke from the leadership. Rather, they stood up to corporate imperialism by reminding the oil industry that Alaskans are in charge of our natural resources — and our government.
This session I had the opportunity to speak with different groups about the state's fiscal situation and the proposals before us to reduce the budget deficit. These groups varied – from the Superintendents Association to the Alaska Municipal League – each with their own interests and causes to champion. But there was one goal they all shared: the need to fix Alaska's $4 billion deficit.
Domestic violence is found across all socioeconomic groups — in fact, more than one in three women and one in four men have been victims of some form of physical violence by an intimate partner within their lifetime. However, women are often economically dependent on their abusers and are less able to leave and more likely to return to abusive partners. Many women are dependent on their spouses for insurance coverage.
Plans for the proposed Juneau Ocean Center (JOC) continue to progress. The project is being designed as a world-class facility to educate the public on ocean resources and to provide a spectacular venue for scientific conferences and community meetings. Equally important, it promises to be a public-private partnership model that will help Juneau to grow and diversify its economy.
The following editorial first appeared in the Peninsula Clarion:
Weekend showers have brought some much needed moisture to the Kenai Peninsula, knocking down some of the dust and pollen that has been blowing around and helping with the area's wildfire risk.

Harper mutes staunch defence of Wallin's travel expenses
Prime Minister Stephen Harper in the House of Commons on Wednesday Sept. 26, 2012. (Fred Chartrand / THE CANADIAN PRESS)
The Canadian Press
Published Tuesday, February 26, 2013 4:21PM CST
Prime Minister Stephen Harper is muting his staunch defence of Pamela Wallin following reports that the Saskatchewan senator has repaid a substantial amount of her travel expenses.
Earlier this month, Harper rose to Wallin's defence, saying he'd looked at the numbers and found Wallin's travel claims were comparable to those of other parliamentarians from Saskatchewan.
Now, however, Harper is deflecting opposition queries about her expenses, saying only that a Senate committee is reviewing all senators' expense claims to ensure they are appropriate.
Moreover, Harper's communications director, Andrew MacDougall, says the prime minister never intended to suggest he'd personally reviewed or approved Wallin's expenses.
In his earlier defence of the senator, MacDougall says Harper was only saying that her total travel claims were comparable to those of other Saskatchewan parliamentarians.
A spokesman for Wallin is not denying a CTV report that the senator repaid a big chunk of her travel expenses, offering only a terse "no comment."

I use Zyma for a website I recently started. I am thoroughly impressed with the excellent customer service that I received and I was happy that their hosting also included e-commerce services. I highly recommend Zyma and will use them again in the future for more web hosting.
