Life With Jack Frost
Chapter 18:
You're watching television but you've been moving side to side because your young winter spirit is observing the huge T.V screen in your living room. You can't really watch attentively and your favourite t.v show is on.
"Jack Overland Frost!" you yelled but he obviously he didn't listen. He keeps knocking the screen with his wooden staff and stared at it for couple minutes.
The young guardian grinned and turned to look at you, "You said my middle name." He said cordially and sat beside you.
"Finally!" you said with a bit of anger in your tone. You finally started to enjoy the show but unfortunately it's already over. "Damn!" you shouted furiously and turned off the television stubbornly.
"Can't you just play it again?" Jack said thoughtfully as he put his arm around your shoulder. "No!" you yelled frantically, "it's not a magic t.v Jack and this is not a magic remote not like your wooden magic staff!" You shouted with intense anger with the young guardian.
Jack Frost laughed and pinched you nose and kissed your forehead but that didn't make you feel any better. You stood up and put the remote down on the center table outrageously. You went upstairs leaving the young guardian behind, surprisingly, he's already in your room.
Groaning you went back downstairs and there he is again. Suddenly a hole appeared on the floor. You backed away from it and stared at it for a while.
"Bunnymund?" you thought and you are precisely right. The Easter Bunny jumped out of the hole and turned and greeted you warmly.
"Good after noon (F/n)!" Bunnymund said with a grin and swerved to glance at the young guardian. "Oh… hey frostbite." He said coldly.
The young guardian clutches his staff and looked at you. Still angry at the young guardian you stick your tongue out as you crossed your arms. You ran to the kitchen excitedly and grabbed a piece of fresh carrot.
"Heads up!" you said cheerfully and the Easter Bunny caught his favourite vegie. "Thanks mate!" he replied after he took a bite out of it. The young guardian glared and the Easter Bunny's chewing when he looked at the winter spirit.
"North wants you." Bunnymund said. Jack Frost sighed deeply as he scratched his white-silver hair. You took a sit while looking at the two guardians. The winter spirit looked at you, giving a message.
"What?" You asked curiously, "there's no way I'm going to say no." you added.
The young guardian groaned and the Easter Bunny talked by the time he finished his carrot, "He wants you… now." Bunnymund with said with a bit bossy in his voice.
"Just go," you said heartily when you noticed that the young guardian doesn't want to leave you alone. "I'll be at Jamie's place. I'll be babysitting him this evening."
Jack nodded cheerfully and looked at Bunnymund. The Australian accent Easter Bunny gave the young guardian a smile before he jumped back into the hole. You stood up and looked at the winter spirit as his smile faded.
"I'll be fine…" you said with your soft like silk voice. "Jamie will keep me company." You added.
"Alright," Jack suddenly said, "and tell him that I'll visit him." He added and gave you a big hug. "Sure thing…" you said whispered.
You watched your own superman as he fly away and waved at him before he's too far to be seen. You smiled sweetly and went back in and prepared for later.
North, while in his workplace, have been walking across the room for hours and can't take his eyes off on the enormous globe. A few moments later, the winter spirit came out of the portal and the man in the red suit sighed with relief.
"What happened?" Jack suddenly said as he went out of the sack. The young guardian looked at North's serene eyes and glanced at the globe. "It's him again, is it?" he asked.
"I'm afraid so." North said worriedly about the predicament they're in. "He's back and I presume you know what the reason is." He added and looked at the young guardian.
"Of course…" he said calmly as he grasped hi wooden staff. The Easter Bunny smiled with relish and glanced at the evil smiling young guardian.
"What are waiting for?" Jack said and looked at his fellow guardians. North and the others prepared for battle and went in the sleigh after.
"I wish (F/n) gave me another carrot. I could've saved it for this." Bunnymund said while holding his stomach and even the sleigh is not yet moving.
It's already seven in the evening when you arrived at Jamie's place and saw him waiting for you while sitting on the stairs. You gave him a sweet smile and knelt when he started to run to you.
"Oh, I miss you to kiddo…" you said heartily as he hugged you tightly. His mother stared at the both of you and grinned.
Suddenly Jamie's father opened the door and his parents reminded you again about the house's rules and regulations before they left. You waited them to enter the car before closing and locking the doors.
"Where's Jack Frost?" Jamie said with thrill in his eyes. You looked at the young boy and brushed his hair with a grin.
"If you want to see him…" Jaime clutches his hands with excitement as he waited you to continue, "First, you have to eat dinner, brush your teeth, clean up your room and dress up for bedtime."
Jamie nodded cheerfully and started running to the dining room. While you're heating up the food, the young boy keeps asking you if it is ready.
"Nope." You said serenely with a sweet grin. Finally, you put the food on the table and Jamie abruptly ate his food. You reminded him to eat slowly but he's too excited about the young guardian. He hurriedly drank his water and ran upstairs to brush his teeth and to wear his pyjamas.
After washing the dishes, the young boy called out to you and yelled that he's already done. You walked upstairs to his room and giggled when you saw him looking through the window waiting for the winter spirit.
"Wow! Your room is spotless!" You said sounding amazed and looked at the young boy while he's grabbing a chair and put it in front of his window. "Did you brushed your teeth?" you asked as you closed the door behind you.
"Yes ma'am!" Jamie said excitedly and swerved to look at you. "See!" he opened his teeth and pointed at it.
You giggled and stood beside the boy and looked at his teeth attentively. "Oh no!" you exclaimed and Jamie's face became sad as he looked at you.
"What's wrong?" he asked worriedly. You shook your head slowly and grinned after, "Your teeth is white as Jack Frost."
The kid smiled brightly and glanced back through his window. You sat on his bed and called the winter spirit but he's not answering. You tried for about ten times, still nothing. You looked at Jamie's whose still looking through the window with a sweet grin but after a few minutes you noticed that he's already asleep.
You carried the little boy and laid him in his bed properly. You sat on the chair in front of the window and tried to call the young guardian again.
"Where are you?" you muttered while you're dialling the young guardian. You looked at the poor Jamie whose expecting the young guardian but didn't come.
You stood up and walked to him. Staring at the young boy, you leaned and kissed his forehead and whispered. "Don't worry. He'll make it up to you. I promise."
You heard the doorbell rang and you hurriedly turned the little boy's nightlight and turned the light after. You glanced at the boy for the last time before you closed the door gently.
Jamie's parents are already here. His mother gave you your pay and thanked you again for the second time.
"You're very welcome ma'am. I'm glad that you trust me to look after your son." You said heartily. You grabbed your things and waved back at Jamie's parents.
While walking home, you looked at the time and didn't realize that it's already ten o'clock. You looked around worriedly as you put your hood on, observing the dark and quiet place around you.
"It's pretty late…" you whispered and suddenly you heard something coming from behind you. While looking behind, you noticed some… thing hiding in the shadows.
"Hello, (F/n)" a voice said. Your eyes widened and was about to run away when suddenly, about ten dark horse stood in front of you.
"Please… let me introduce myself…" the voice said again. Then a tall man with a greyish skin complexion, mixture of grey and yellow color eyes wearing a black long coat, came out from the dark. "My name is Pitch, also known as the Bogeyman." He added.
Your eyes widened with horror when you saw the man. You looked around and noticed that you're surrounded with black horses with fiery bright eyes.
Pitch walked closer and started circling while looking at you from head to foot. You whole body became frigid as the Bogeyman touched your hair. Pitch's lips suddenly twisted into an evil smile which made you shrugged and frozen.
"I admit…" he stated, "The winter spirit has a good taste." He said with a peculiar grin.
Suddenly your eyes are getting heavy and sleepy without knowing why. You're also hearing Pitch saying something but couldn't figure out what language he's using. After a few seconds you passed out leaving you to the hands of the evil, scary, vile king of nightmares.

Lehigh's Julie Fernandez
March 29, 2012
Patriot League Softball Statistics
Center Valley, Pa. -- After a combined 127 games to prepare, the six Patriot League teams will finally begin to face off with the opening of League play on Saturday.
Lehigh, the defending champion and preseason favorite, will open up at rival Lafayette this weekend while Army hosts Holy Cross and Colgate heads to Bucknell. Each Patriot League series is four games with doubleheaders on both Saturday and Sunday.
The Mountain Hawks and Black Knights enter the League season with the most momentum and winning overall records after each sweeping a doubleheader on Wednesday. Lehigh swept Fordham and has won six of its last eight games to improve to 15-13 overall at the start of League action, while Army holds a 15-12 record after winning by a combined score of 31-4 in its doubleheader against St. Peter's on Wednesday.
The Patriot League schedule will continue for five consecutive weekends, with each team facing off in four-game series against its Patriot League opponents. The regular season concludes on April 29, with the 2012 Patriot League Tournament set for May 10-12 at the site of the top seed.
Patriot League Notebook
Lehigh Picked First in Preseason Softball Poll
After winning its 11th Patriot League title last season, Lehigh has been selected to claim the crown again in 2012 as the Mountain Hawks were picked first in the Patriot League Softball preseason poll. Lehigh took home 48 points and eight first-place votes from coaches and sports information directors, who were not allowed to vote for their own team. Colgate, which won last year's regular-season title, placed second with 44 points and the remaining four first-place votes and was followed in the voting by Army (30) and Holy Cross (26) with Bucknell and Lafayette tying for fifth place with 16 points.
Bliss Earns Patriot League, ECAC Honors After Outstanding Week
Lehigh junior Rebecca Bliss had a memorable three-game stretch, and it gave her the Pitcher of the Week award from both the Patriot League and Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC). Bliss had three complete-game shutouts, tossing 21 scoreless innings for the week, to lead Lehigh to close wins over Ivy League opponents. She allowed just nine hits with no walks and eight strikeouts in the 21 innings of work, and did not give up more than four hits in any of her three starts against Penn (2-0), and Harvard (1-0, 2-0). Bliss allowed only a .132 batting average for the week. She had another fine performance on Wednesday, allowing just two runs on five hits in a 4-2 win over Fordham. Bliss is the second Lehigh student-athlete to be honored by the ECAC after senior Jen Colquhoun was named the organization's Player of the Week on March 13.
Freshman Pitching Sensation, Part I
Lehigh freshman Emily Bausher has an incredible resume early in her career, as she already owns a 12-strikeout no-hitter against South Dakota on March 4 to go with consecutive one-hitters with a combined 23 strikeouts in the shutouts of Binghamton and Penn on March 18 and 21. After a pair of hard-luck losses where she allowed four runs in 16 innings against Harvard over the weekend, Bausher posted another victory with a complete game in a 7-2 triumph over Fordham on Wednesday. Bausher has a 1.51 ERA and 7-7 record for the season, with 102 strikeouts in 88.1 innings of work.
Freshman Pitching Sensation, Part II
While Bausher has been spectacular, she has been matched by another first-year player in the Patriot League. Army freshman Morgan Lashley has carried the load for the 15-12 Black Knights on the mound. Lashley has started 20 and appeared in 24 of Army's games, and has made the most of her work with a 10-9 record and 2.60 ERA. She has already thrown 129.0 innings, giving up just 123 hits in that span and striking out 94.
Fernandez Breaks Lehigh Doubles Record, Closing in on Patriot League Mark
Lehigh senior first baseman Julie Fernandez is having yet another fine season, and on Wednesday she made the first mark into the record books. With three doubles in a sweep of Fordham, Fernandez became the Lehigh school-record holder with 52 two-baggers in her career. She passed Stephanie Digneo (2000-03) for the mark, and also moved past Digneo for second in Patriot League history. Fernandez is just four doubles away from the Patriot League record of 56 held by Army's Nicki Robbins (1999-02). She also excels off the field, and is one of 30 candidates for the Lowe's Senior CLASS Softball Award. The award encompasses community, classroom, character and competition. The 30 candidates will be narrowed to 10 finalists midway through the regular season, and those 10 names will be placed on the official ballot.
Fregenti Sets Holy Cross Home Run Record
Early in her junior season, Sam Fregenti is already the all-time home run leader at Holy Cross. She cranked a pair of home runs in the spring trip for the Crusaders, breaking the mark while coming through with the game-winning RBIs in a 7-6 win over Yale on March 6.

SHARON TWP. — Authorities are still looking for a burglar who shot at a fleeing resident Monday morning.
Several shots reportedly were fired about 10:35 a.m. during a burglary in the 200 block of Medina Road, Chief Deputy Ken Baca of the Medina County Sheriff's Office said.
The 27-year-old resident arrived home and noticed a television missing and a gun case opened, Baca said.
The resident turned around and saw a man standing behind him in the house. When the resident ran outside toward a neighbor's property, the intruder reportedly fired a number of shots at him, Baca said.
The resident was not injured during the encounter, Baca said.
The resident declined to comment Monday.
According to the Sheriff's Office, the intruder used a handgun. Several shell casings were found on the front steps outside the residence and just inside the home.
The burglar was wearing black clothing and fled the property in a blue or green Buick sedan.
Authorities with the Sheriff's Office and police departments in Medina, Medina Township and Montville Township searched for the man throughout the area Monday.
The sheriff's office said Monday night no one had been apprehended yet.

InfoQ had an interesting article out on REST based webservices. REST supplanted SOAP as the *best* webservice framework/methodology. It has been viewed as simple, small foot print, easy to develop against, and offering good performance.
BUT and its a large but, it depends on the API provider adhering to a set of best practices and understanding the thinking behind REST. And according to a Trove survey, most API providers do not understand that thinking. Many client developers complain of poor (or non-existing) documentation, bad version control and no backwards compatibility, inadequate test environments, poor domain object models and others.
A few questions the article raises as to why these webservices end up being so hard to use are:
- Code generation tools make for sloppier development
- HTTP is so flexible it doesn't prevent mistakes
- No enforcement of code via machine readable code
My personal observation is that without contracts and required standards, development tends to sink to the lowest common denominator. Many companies with big IT staffs don't even really understand object oriented programming, let alone REST based webservices and setting up usable/re-usable web contracts. But that's not an easy to problem to solve globally.

Seattle, WA- Writers who were members of Yahoo's vast network of online contributors had a rude awakening this morning as the company distributed an email outlining their plans to scrap the Yahoo Contributor Network (YCN) and Yahoo! Voices, an online content platform that allowed writers significant freedom to generate and share content intended for the search engine company's online audience. Top articles could be featured in Yahoo! News or Yahoo! Sports, pages with huge readerships where up-and-coming writers could be published right next to professional staff writers.
"I'm freaking out. I've got to find something fast," said Samantha Thompson of Newark Valley, NY, one of YCN's top contributors. "It's my only income.There are no other sites like it."
In its correspondence to its writers, Yahoo! struck a much different tone. "You made the past nine years incredible." it began "At Yahoo, we're focused on making daily habits more inspiring and entertaining. That means we're constantly reviewing our products and experiences and, in some cases, we have to make tough decisions to no longer support a product." The statement went on to reveal that it would no longer accept articles for submission as of today and would delete all content that it had not accepted under a work for hire license. The good news for writers is that they will maintain the right to all content they submitted (save those purchased under work for hire), but must download copies of the content themselves before the end of the month.
This is little comfort for hard-working writers like Samantha Thompson.
Thomson has been a contributor to the platform since 2006, when it was still known as Associated Content. She contributed close to 500 articles in her time with the platform, getting AC and Yahoo! close to 2 million views and winning top contributor awards in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Her dedication had taken her to the top of the contributor pay scale - $2.00 per 1000 views - and contributed enough articles on a daily basis to get by with writing as her sole income.
Thompson is still in shock that the way she has made her living for close to a decade is disappearing overnight." As of this morning writers were notified that submissions will no longer be accepted. This leaves them searching for other income opportunities. We are still in shock at this point. What this means for me is either I find other work elsewhere fast or I cannot support my kids."
There are many theories circulating regarding why Yahoo! would bail on its $100 million investment in the Associated Content platform and alienate its large workforce of independent contractors. Most point to Google's Panda update as the instigator, penalizing content generated on platforms such a Yahoo! Voices. Moving forward, Yahoo seems primed to mine its 1.1 Billion purchase of Tumblr for all the free content it can get and replace its professional writers with unpaid bloggers. It is a move that is sure to put other content generation platforms on notice: adapt to the realities of the Post-Panda internet or perish.
For writers, they have not only lost a source of income. They have lost a place where their voice was appreciated and they were able have a shot at seeing their name in print right next to the biggest names in the business. For Samantha and countless others like her, there is no guarantee that an opportunity like that will ever come again.

Basin with the Gathering of Manna
Patanazzi Francesco
Urbino, probably, c. 1600 - 1620
14.2cm (height); 38.7cm (diameter)
tin-glazed earthenware (maiolica)
This piece is painted with a scene from Exodus, chapter 16, depicting the collecting of Manna, the food miraculously provided for the Israelites on their pilgrimage from Egypt through the wilderness to the Holy Land. Beneath the foot of the basin is a painting of a marine monster. On the sides of the basin are winged putti supporting pseudo-cameos.
The scene of the Gathering of Manna is based on a woodcut by Bernard Salomon from the Quadrins Historiques de la Bible, first published in Lyons in 1553 and one of the favourite sources for late 16th-century Urbino maiolica-painters. This book also provided source material for Limoges enamel painters, examples of which can be seen in the case opposite.

Also, for a few months now my PC (running VISTA with IE Cool will periodically freeze up when IE 8 is open. I have to restart the PC (can't do a soft reboot, have to switch the computer off). I am not sure that this is a malware problem or if it is something beyond what can be diagnosed here.

A tech (I think from Gateway, not sure) had me run a progam that gave them remote control to fix some issue when the PC was new - forget what it was. Is it possible that is what you are seeing?

January 11, 2015 I became an angel. Mama and I have both fought very hard for the last several years. My liver, my heart, IBD, hyperthyroidism, etc. Mama believes I had a seizure of some sort in the wee hours of the morning and decided the fight was over. I went very peacefully and in my mama's arms.
Thank you so much to everyone leaving message, rossettes, gifts, etc. It makes mama cry, but comforts her to know there are those who understand I wasn't "just a cat".
Loves, Lilly
Kittanna's diary was supposed to be our last, but mama realized I'd never given a final on me and my health! So the Princess Purrs one last time.
It has never been determined the exact cause of what's wrong with me. I've been diagnosed with an enlarged liver and an enlarged heart. Several rounds of expensive blood work have found no base cause.
I'm holding steady between 6 and 7 pounds. Dr W has said since it's been so long that this is as good as I'll probably get. Mama didn't think I'd see 8 years, then I made it 9. We'll see how long we can keep this up. I'm on daily meds and will be for life. Reglan for the nausea. Prednisolone for the enlarged organs and to fight whatever is causing it, possibly some slow form of cancer, but we don't know. Enalapril for my heart, to relax my blood vessels and let the blood flow easier. THAT diagnosis was a tiny miracle.
Mama noticed a very slight change in my breathing and my cousin noticed I was having trouble getting on the counter sometimes. Blood flow to my back legs was becoming compromised. Dr W was very surprised mama caught it. She told him he had no IDEA how closely I was watched! MOL!
All in all, I'm doing well. I still fight and wrestle with the younger ones, I still beg for milk and cheese every chance I get, and I still love my lap time.
We will miss everyone here when Catster closes it's doors. While we hadn't been very active, we still looked in on our friends from time to time and came here to give and seek support when needed. It's a sad thing to be stolen from all of us.
To my beloved, Leaf, I will always love you, you gorgeous hunk of fur!!
It's been a long time since I've been here. Doubt my old boyfriend is still even around. Just dropping in to let everyone know how I'm doing. Don't even remember if I posted when things started getting bad.
Last year, mama noticed I was losing weight. Blood work was done twice and my ALT levels were high, though lower on the second test. My weight loss seemed to level off at the time.
This year, mama noticed I was again losing weight. We went back to the vet for a recheck and more blood work. I've got some kind of liver disease. They asked about exploratory surgery for a biopsy, but mama doesn't want me miserable if there's nothing can be done. My liver is very enlarged and my bilirubin is high. We've done medicines and tried an appetite stimulant, but it was going to drive me and mama both crazy! It made me feel funny so I walked around meowing and crying. DON'T let a vet tell you Cyproheptadine won't cause a cat to be overly anxious!
Anyway, I'm done with the meds (still on Denosyl) and still not eating much. Not gaining any weight. Mama mostly keeps me isolated in the spare bedroom so the rest of the kits don't pick on me since I'm so little now. But I'm still purring and love for mama to sleep with me a bit. I get out to wander around with the others for a bit. So even though I'm not gaining any weight and it's likely I won't be around for a long time, life is still good.

Poems don't always have to rhyme, you know. They just have to be creative.
I've missed lots of stuff around Film Club over the last several weeks - horror talk, Booing, &tc. My time has been dedicated to moving and the new job, which means I have not been watching many movies. But I have seen a few and for posterity sake I need to list them before I forget. They are all 2011-12 films and they were all enjoyable. I'd recommend them all (but won't wade back through the Moonrise discussion that I missed).

This snazzy piece of equipment is more functional than it looks. Hook the USB Typewriter Computer Keyboard ($699) up to your computer (iPads and tablets work too!) and insert paper to print drafts and save your work simultaneously. Yes, having that instantaneous printout will make editing a lot easier. But, bring this gadget to your favorite writing spot (we're thinking coffee shop or college library) and we bet it'll also be much, much easier to break the ice with any cutie you've been eyeing.

After many years serving his music to the underground fiends and an ill-fated stint on the now-defunct TVT label, Memphis rapper Yo Gotti has opted for the higher ground with his first major label release, Live From The Kitchen. As the title suggests, there's more than a little trap talk, but at a compact 11 tracks, it's closer to efficient than obnoxious."Testimony" opens the album with the typical connection between the trap and the church. Gotti has coke thoughts and fishcale visions as he talks crooked labels and evil streets. Third verse breathes life into an otherwise meh song with a double time flow and an energy boost. Rick Ross guests on "Harder," a song with the snare drums and booming lows made familiar by echoes of Wacka's "Hard In The Paint" infused in the beat. Church bells and an escalating whine push all momentum shifts as Gotti talks realness and what he'd leave his son if things go wrong. Ross closes with Benzes, Reebok and Ciroc talk and the notiong that trapping won't bar him from heaven.
We stay in the trap on "Killa,"where Gotti ponders alternate paths where his life could have gone whether performing in an orpheum or coming from an orphanage."Red White and Blue" is Gotti's view on America. There's no reason to go to war overseas when they are shooting around the corner. Crips and Bloods along with the coke make up the colors of the flag. Jadakiss drops by with an ok verse on the cleanup. He's eating lobster as the Black Frank Sinatra talking that Rick Flair jet flying shit.
"Single" is actually the lead song from the album with 808s and the dreaded trap snare drums. Gotti talks single records, being single in the club and single bricks. She got a man but for Gotti, she single for the night. It's about as inventive as you can be on a song like this. Gotti tackles failed relationships on "Second Chance." Baby momma left him and now wants to get back. It's hood, complete with "don't bring no n****s around my kids" but he does mention the karmic payback from running around on your woman. Now when you find one you want it comes back on you. Gotti ain't trying to hear a sequel on the broken relationship.
A production surprise along with 2Chainz makes "Cases" a highlight. Big brass and a familiar club synth anthem are trapetised and strangely married and soundstrong. You'll know it when you hear it. I'm not a fan of 2Chainz but he bodies this with energy and ignorance (living in a mansion but I'm still stealing cable). The duo does everything big (by the case). "Letter" is a heartfelt letter to his big brother, trying to get him off those streets. With his music working, Gotti has an exit strategy but it's hard to get a trapper to stop. Letter two is to his kids, sharing his indiscretions, telling his daughter not to fall for the way he treated her mother and explaining his role in why he isn't with their mother. It's the realest thing on the album.
Album takes a left on "Go Girl" with an all star lineup featuring half the new generation of rap including Wiz Khalifa, Wale, Big Sean, and Big K.R.I.T. It's a nice change from the trap rap and the inclusion of new voices breaks the monotony. The disparate flavors are definitely a plus. Gotti shares his coupke fantasies on "We Can Get It On," talking about his favorite chick, aspriing to power couple status. You've heard this song before but it doesn't suck. The album ends with the surefire strip club hit "5 Star," feat Gucci Mane, Trina, and Nicki Minaj. High synth stabs and the double drum pattern are paced by an organ. Minaj bats cleanup and steals the show, but it's not a memorable verse.
Live From The Kitchen is not a game changer, nor is it inventive, but it bumps and it will give Yo Gotti fans more music to ride to, trap haters more music to bitch about, and Gotti himself another solid effort in the books.

The Jets got their collective arses whooped last night. That's never a bad thing. Too bad it was the Patriots who did it, but whatever.
The Jets were once again exposed as vulnerable, and that bodes well for their fortunes remaining games.
Except that I'm not sure Miami can take advantage of that fact, especially since they square off this weekend - just after being embarrassed.
Sanchez threw three picks, but that won't happen again, especially considering Miami can't hold onto a pick!

Mark my words Scotland will soon be its own country. I could feel it in the populace like rain in the air, heavy and waiting for the right moment to pour forth it's innards onto you. This is Scotland. A wonderfully rugged community, full of culture and balls. That's right I said balls. Think about what it means when you say "you've got some balls" fearless, in your face, step out onto the fucking ledge and dance a Scottish jig. that's what Scotland is my friends. Balls.
I started in the capital Edinburgh and I haven't experienced a scene getting off the train like this anywhere else. The moment you step out into the street you are on this magical fence separating modern tastes and classic features. High atop is a massive castle overlooking the city like something out of Dracula it looms above the town daring you to visit. There are monuments and statues everywhere and somewhat second hand in there tourism. Like they are just there and the sheer beauty of this place is no big deal because it is every where. Beautiful balls…yes
I normally wouldn't speak much of one city within this very short blog but the story of this place is too good to not be true. You see I have been couchsurfing along this journey and for the first time felt awkward in the place I was to lay my head.
Have you ever seen the movie Trainspotting by Danny Boyle? It's about a group of drug addicted folk who run about experiencing life. Turns out part of it was filmed in Edinborough in a borough called Leif's Walk. Turns out this was where I was to stay as well.
The story begins as I walked up to an apartment deep in the heart of Leif's Ghetto. I buzzed and was let in by a wonderfully wrinkled lady by the name of Nicky. Upon entering the home I found about 15 other people scrambling about, eating food, rifling through crowded rucksacks, and sitting about on whatever seemed soft or sturdy. There was a bunk bed in the living room and plenty of knickknacks littering the floor. I was told to throw my things to the side and sit for a while. I obliged. Nicky was coughing incessantly and had strange looking sores all over her arms which gave me a certain pause, but I grew up on a farm and played in grime all day so I wasn't detoured. It must have been a topic of conversation with other surfers because she immediately engaged me about it.
"I have pigeon disease"
"I'm sorry what"
" I have this thing called cittacosas, or commonly referred to as pigeon disease (coughs)"
"I see, can I get you some water or something"
"Nah ill have a cigarette"
She preceded to tell me that her husband and her had lived in flat 7 on the third floor and there was a pigeon infestation of which she breathed in to much pigeon poop, which caused an infection in her lungs, so, Pigeon disease. Never the less she called out for a guy from Spain named Antonio to take me up to flat 4 where I would be residing for my stay. I thanked her and gave her a hug before I went Upstaurs to the next flat
Upon entering flat 4 I noticed that the walls of the apartment building were all marked in crayons and markers signifying things like apartment numbers and this wAy up or down, odd, but whatever. Once we entered flat 4 I was introduced to about ten other people from all over the world. Two female partners from Canada, a couple from Bulgaria, three German friends, a Polish hitchhiker, a Chicago born yank, and a brazillion queen, all living under this one roof with the rest of the house from flat 2. The Chicagoin named Dave recognized another American immediately and preceded to explain what the hell was going on. Apparently Nicky and her husband Dan take in all the strays. People from the street, couch surfers, nomads, you name it they bring them in. Some people pay to have "rooms" some people don't. It's like an orphanage of cultures and religions. I was intrigued.
The evening passed quietly until I was shown to my room which I shared with three other guys. As i was about to enter dream land on the dirty carpet the Canadiens came in to set up a tattoo table in the corner. That happened to be my sleeping corner but no bother, I was fascinated by this pop up parlor and watched impressingly as they inked the Bulgarian boys. The night passed and I awoke to A cold room in which everyone had left to either explore or escape. Who knows.
Downstairs I met Dan who seemed like he had had too many red bulls mixed with aspirin, whatever that makes. I met some more couhsurfers that showed up in the night and decided to go out and explore the city. I felt uneasy about leaving my ruck sac around with so many people but there was nothing of real value in it so off I went.
Edinburgh itself is a stunning place. As stated before the mix if old and new is abundant and the people are true to themselves which is more rare than you think. I won't ruin it for except to say. Go visit. Now, back to me 😉
I returned to the flat to the sounds of arguing. A rather large Scotsman was discussing things with Nicky in a sad yet angered voice while others I had not yet met chimed in with quips an unless avert. Uh huhs and yeps. Or in this case Aye and hughhh. He was wearing a kilt and hasn't shaven in a long time. I stayed out of the way and went to the grocery store. I was to cook dinner for everyone. I live to cook and culinary arts was my first degree from college. I returned to find flat 2 still full of arguing people and went to flat 4 to crest my Van Gough, tacos! All twenty some people ate loudly with delight and I took some downstairs to Nicky and her fellow debaters, although they were gone but a few still sulking in the conversation. I presented the paintings and they devoured them like Turkish gypsys in East Berlin munching in a Kebab. Nicky then told me to grab my ruc sac, I would be sleeping in flat 2 tonight on the bunk bed. I think this was reward for my cuisine and I didn't complain. I slept well cept for the sore throat all the marihuana and tobacco I inhaled second hand. i almost expected another late night tattoo session or some crazy piercing event, but the night passed un-eventful, but it might not have since I'm a heavy sleeper.
The next day there were some more new surfers and nomads roaming about and I decided to check my things. All there. Feeling confident I left for a bus tour to castles and coliseums. It was grand. However upon returning I found Nicky in. Heightened state. There were some people from the previous night who had argued, all cept the Scotsman. She asked if I could make dinner again. I found leftovers of all kinds of things surfers had left and obliged her. During this session the others drew me into there circle. I was trusted and as such was privy to certain information about the previous night.
"My husbands been kidnapped!"
"I see, well that's…um, that's awful"
She preceded to explain that she hasn't seen him all day and that she went upstairs to the Scotsman's flat and her husband was cowering behind him in the doorway not able to leave. I asked what she was going to do. She said she didn't know and soon she was telling me truth about so many things. Apparently the Scotsman is ex-mafia. He was caught and ratted on his "pals" and has been hiding out in flat 8 for about 9 weeks. I didn't believe her. Then she goes on to tell me that the reason she was fighting with her husband is because the other people had told her they saw him buying heron off the street of which he had a terrible habit he had kicked and now was back on. The reason he was a heroin addict is because he once lived in the U.S. and had a wife and two kids, which were subsequently murdered by hi wife and then she killed herself…I didn't believe her. One quick google search of his name and face will quickly render this conversation moot…..Holy Shit it's true!!!! Right there in google images was this guy and old newspaper clippings. I won't reveal names or regions but it was all true…wow! I started to believe everything.
I slept in the bunk that night thinking about how crazy these nights had been. Pop up tattoo parlors, crazy husbands, an international convention in these small flats, learning all kinds of new things and info, what will happen tomorrow? Tomorrow came and I decided to do a tour to a castle and try some local music. Dan had still not come home. Me and this lovely German girl Katarina went out and came home late. Neither if us felt like dealing with the house. We got home and buzzed to go into flat 2. Nicky answered
"Go upstairs, you can come back later"
We obliged and went to flat 4 where no one new what was going on. Soon though we decided that we must have our things and brave the unknown, so back down we went.
Knock knock
"Umm Nicky it's Jon and Katarina. We just need to get some things. Is that okay?"
Nicky answered by swinging the door open an pulling us in. The house was clean, a shadow of its former pigsty. It was organized and spotless. She had us sit on the couch and preceded to explain
"I've called the cops"
Well there you have it. Me an Katarina looked at each other. Our eyes spoke loudly that we should have stayed in flat 4. Who needs to brush there teeth or take out there contacts right? Then more bombs dropped.
Apparently a few weeks ago done gangs members had stopped by because her junky husband hasn't paid. They threatened to rose her at which point she said
"Go ahead, I'm HIV positive!"
BOOM! Insert bomb reference, noises, and destruction here.
"Well then we'll wear a condom"
"Go ahead ill cut you or stab you with a needle!"
This is when Dan came home and they went to a bank and pulled out some welfare money to pay for his habit. Never the less me and Katarina starting to piece things together. The sores on her arms, pigeon disease, Dans twitchy cracked lips. Patriot missiles to the face.
Knock knock
Nicky quickly hustled over to the door. It was the police. She shoved us into her room and said stay here. We obliged. Nicky then told the police what she wanted while me and Katarina stood very still in the room her husband had probably shot up more than a few times. We were wary of needles or anything else that could transfer the virus. This was highly unlikely but we were not thinking in likely terms. The cops left and Nicky swung the door open throwing a sleeping blanket into my arms. You both sleep in hear tonight. Slam!
Katarina and I found a clean spot on the bed and snuggled silently waiting for the cops to come down with news. The eventually returned stating that he was not kidnapped but did not want to come down. The conversation continued with words that Didnt matter until there was nothing left to say. We went to bed, the cops left, Nicky paced. The rest if the night was also quite interesting but this is part one so hold your horses.
I awoke early. My taxi was picking me up for an early train. I kissed Katarina on the forehead and snuck out finding Nivky splayed out on the couch like fish at the Cardiff markets. I didn't wake her and left this wonderland for good.
I arrived to Fort William a few hours later and checked my Facebook at a Starbucks. There was one message glaring at me from Katarina. How did I know it was going to be something crazy.
"They took her"
A million stories ran through my head, but the fiction was less than subtle in the truth. Apparently medical personal had shown up in the afternoon, put Nicky in a straight jacket and drug her kicking and screaming to the nut house. Dan kicked out all the surfers and then told the people he let stay that flat 4 was someone else's apartment that was on vacation and that we had all been squatting there illegally, which would have gotten almost all of us deported very quickly.
…seems the norm
A week later a message popped up in my feed from Nicky. She confirmed the hospital stay and that Dan had told the police she was sleeping with me, Dave, and Antonio. The cops had to tell medical personnel because of the HIV and so forth. She mentioned Dan was gone, cleaned out the bank account, and she would update me later. I'm still waiting on the update.
End part 1.

EUGENE, Ore.- The University of Oregon lacrosse team (6-4, 2-0 MPSF) treks to Edgewater, Md. to face Cincinnati (3-5, 0-1 BIG EAST) on Sunday, Apr. 1 at 9 a.m. (PST) at South River High School in Edgewater, Md.
The Bearcats were already in Maryland for a contest with Loyola where they fell, 16-7 on Friday. The Ducks travel into Maryland after splitting a pair of matches in North Carolina. UO lost to High Point, 13-10, on Mar. 25, but rebounded nicely to take care of Davidson, 8-4 on Mar. 27.
Oregon is being led by sophomore Shannon Propst. Propst has amassed 16 goals and 12 assists, for a team-leading 28 points. Sophomore Nikki Puszcz is second on the squad with 25 points (18 g, 7 a) and senior Kristina Barrett is third with 14 goals and eight assists for 22 points.
The Ducks also have three others that have accumulated double figures in the point column in seniors Jess Drummond (12 g, 3 a), Jana Drummond (8 g, 7 a) and sophomore Hayley Milner (10g, 2 a).
Sophomore Caroline Federighi and junior Salliebeth Finnegan have shared time in goal, while Federighi has posted a 9.01 GAA and .507 save percentage.
The Bearcats are being paced by the 24 points from Katie Kiriazoglou (13 g, 11 a) and 22 from Laura Simanski (19 g, 3 a).
Jennifer Walsh has completed the majority of the minutes in goal for Cincy, recording a 14.79 GAA and .354 save percentage.
Oregon, who is 4-1 in their last five matches, has outscored their opponents 62-39 in their 4-1 stretch and held their opponents to single-digit lows in points, goals and assists.
The Ducks hold a 2-0 advantage in the series between the two schools, with UO defeating the Bearcats on Mar. 20, 2010, 14-8 and Mar. 6, 2011, 16-5.
Consistency Is the Key
The Ducks have showed a unified effort in their matches in the young season. In matches, the one key person that has showed up on the Oregon stat line is Shannon Propst. In UO's 10 matches, Propst is the only Duck that has tallied a point in every match.
Finding the Groove
Nikki Puszcz may lead the team in goals tallied on the season with 18, but Jana Drummond is quietly moving up the goals scored top-five list. Drummond has eight on the season, but has 121 for her career, good for third place all-time. She is now only seven from tying current assistant coach Jen (May) Derby, who is second with 128.
The Climb
Jana Drummond is fourth all-time in points scored with 152 and as the season goes on, she will look to make huge movement in the points portion of the Oregon record book.
Last Line of Defense
As the last line of defense, Caroline Federighi has held her own in goal for the Ducks this season. Federighi has 72 saves in goal for Oregon, with her numbers she has climbed into third all-time with 159 career saves, nestled behind Salliebeth Finnegan, who is second all-time with 199.
Sneak Attack
Jess and Jana Drummond have had teams seeing double during their careers at Oregon. Ja. Drummond is currently fifth all-time in caused turnovers with 50, while her sister, Jess, is close behind with 45.
Sharing Is Caring
Current assistant coach Jen (May) Derby holds numerous records for the Ducks, but Kristina Barrett (61) recently passed Derby on the assists list and has moved into a tie for second with Alex Breiner.

Welded Wire Panels Technology at Its Best!
One of the best fencing options you can find today are the welded wire panels. Welded wire panels are made using the highest quality of low carbon steel wire. Welded wire panels are typically in a mesh configuration designed to contain livestock. Welded wire fence panels come in a variety of different designs and strengths. Welded wire panels are versatile and have a number of applications. They are more commonly used to construct enclosures for livestock and farm animals. Welded wire panels are ideal to contain animals and also prevent unwanted intruders and at the same time enhance the beauty of your property.
Farm equipment stores can provide you with welded wire panels designed to fit your specific type of property for farm animals. The welded wire panels may be made of galvanized steel and are categorized by various sizes and configuration of the holes in the mesh. Horse panels have square holes from top to bottom. On the other hand, cattle panels are similar to horse panels, however they have a smaller grid size. The net for hog panels is oval at the bottom where the intersecting wires are closer together and becomes square as it makes its way to the top where the interconnected wires are further apart. Several fencing companies can also provide custom-made wire fence panels to suit exotic applications such as farming ostriches or running a wildlife rehabilitation facility.
Wire mesh panels are also used in an industrial setting where they serve the purpose of fencing the equipment and machines in factories. The most appropriate welded wire panels for this purpose would be the electro-galvanized welded wire panels. Welded wire panels are also frequently used in industrial settings to set a boundary around the building structure or to create a confined work space within a factory or a warehouse. The welded wire panels are also useful in keeping people away from hazardous equipment or machines, or to prevent large pieces of debris from falling out an enclosed area.
Welded wire panels can also be used to decorate your garden area. There are welded wire panels available with a PVC coating which is the best for decorative purposes. PVC coating provides protection to the panel from rust and corrosion. Some of the benefits of welded wire panels with PVC coating is that they offer a strong adhesive value and anti-corrosion support.
A Guide to Purchasing Cattle Panels
In order to keep your farm animals in the field, you should consider purchasing cattle panels for sale and installing them around your farm or ranch. Cattle panels for sale are made up of strong materials that withstand the pressure of larger and more aggressive animals leaning up against them. Several ranches and farms make use of cattle panels for sale they have been found to be extremely effective in order to contain cattle, horses as well as sheep in the field. The strength of the cattle panels for sale meant for sheep farms are less sturdy in strength as compared to the cattle panels used for horses and cows.
Cattle panels for sale can be purchased at a home supply store. Manufacturers will also be able to provide you with cattle panels for sale. In addition to that, your local feed supply store or a livestock or farm equipment store may have the cattle panels for sale available. Alternatively, if you know of any locals that make cattle panels, you could also give them a visit in order to purchase the cattle panels for sale. Cattle panels for sale are available in a different styles, designs and colors and are extremely cost-effective.
Horses are known to be aggressive animals and if a single horse in the field finds a way out through a weak fence, then the others are likely to follow in view of the fact that they are herd animals. Cattle panels for sale, can help to avoid such a situation since they are strong and will not bend, break, rupture or pop out of place when a horse pushes against them, unlike other fences. When you purchase cattle panels for sale, you can pretty much guarantee that your horses are going to be secure.
Cattle can also cause damage to the fence and escape from their enclosures, but by purchasing cattle panels for sale, you can prevent this from happening. It is recommended by manufacturers who provide cattle panels for sale that you have the cattle panels installed by hiring the services of a professional rather than setting up the fencing yourself due to the size and weight of the panels. You must also ensure that you purchase cattle panels for sale that come with a long-term guarantee. For goats, sheep and other small farm animals, you can purchase cattle panels for sale and install them on your own since they are lighter, less expensive and easier to set up than the ones used for cows and horses.

HAZELWOOD, Mo. -- The St. Louis Blues gathered at the rink one final time before heading their separate ways, their feelings leaning toward disappointment and frustration after another exit in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
It was locker cleanout day at the Ice Zone inside St. Louis Outlet Mall on Wednesday, and it came sooner than they expected.
A pick by some to win their first Stanley Cup, the drought will go into a 48th season in 2014-15. But a year after learning the hard lesson of losing a 2-0 series lead in the first round against the defending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings, the Blues suffered the same fate in 2014 against the defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks.
After losing four straight in the six-game Western Conference First Round series, players Wednesday echoed the sentiment expressed by general manager Doug Armstrong and coach Ken Hitchcock the day before: There was a lack of killer instinct.

Nice house close to city centre. Need more warmers at wintertime
What a fantastic apartment! Wonderful location, incredibly friendly & helpful introduction to Lisbon upon arrival, very clean and well equipped, and beautiful views across the river and city! Everything is within easy walking distance, and Lisbon is super authentic. The small bar on the ground floor is a gem...we can't wait to come back!! Thank you very much to our hosts!
Apartment very well placed to visit Lisbon.
Great neighborhood.
The terrace is actually a large balcony which is still well appreciated.
Some stemware (5 to 8 people) and a second sofa for everyone to sit would be really good.
Appartement très bien placé pour visiter Lisbonne.
Quartier génial.
La terrasse est en fait un grand balcon qui est quand même bien appréciable.
Quelques verres à pied en plus (5 pour 8 pers ) et un 2ème canapé permettant à tout le monde de s'assoir seraient vraiment bien.
The apartment is quite spacious, comfortable, well equipped and modern decor.
It has a great location next to Los Jeronimos, and opposite the park. Well connected.
Marta greeted us very friendly and lots of information about Lisbon.
It's great to have access in the apartment.
It is above the restaurants, making it among smell of food in the apartment.
They should review the master bathroom cistern that loses water and is noisy and the door of one of the bedrooms that do not close properly.
Sheets on one of the beds, washed but with unsightly stains, the rest of the apartment was clean.
It is a third party without elevator.
We were comfortable, but there are small details that can improve.
El apartamento es bastante amplio, cómodo, bien equipado y con moderna decoración.
Tiene una excelente ubicación junto a Los Jerónimos, y frente al parque. Bien comunicado.
Nos recibió Marta, muy amable y con muchísima información sobre Lisboa.
Es estupendo disponer de Wifi en el apartamento.
Está encima de los restaurantes, lo que hace que entre olor a comida en el apartamento.
Deberían de revisar la cisterna del baño principal que pierde agua y hace mucho ruido, así como la puerta de uno de los dormitorios que no cierra bien.
Sábanas de una de las camas, lavadas pero con manchas desagradables, el resto del apartamento estaba limpio.
Es un tercero sin ascensor.
Estuvimos a gusto, pero hay pequeños detalles que hay que se pueden mejorar.
The house in the old center of Lisbon was very individual and schön.allerdings we had 10 people for a coffee for two and 7 tassen.alle cutter stumpf.in kitchen and upper bedroom were living ants (in bed) .Unfortunately was the shower curtain in the basement verschimmelt.ansonsten everything was fine and the location of the house is great.
Das haus im alten kern von lissabon war sehr individuell und schön.allerdings hatten wir für 10 leute eine Kaffeemaschine für zwei personen und 7 tassen.alle schneidemesser waren stumpf.in küche und oberem schlafraum lebten ameisen (auch im Bett).leider war der duschvorhang im untergeschoss verschimmelt.ansonsten war alles prima und die lage des hauses ist grossartig.
very good location and cool appart, very good welcome by the owner's friend.
could be a bit noisy if the neighbors are not friendly, the wall seems very thin between the apparts...we were lucky to have no neighbors and then a group of comprehensive people.
It is very nice and well-located apartment, very good (kitchen, Internet, etc.) equipped and furnished. There was a lot of fun to explore from here the city.
Although the apartment is located in a pedestrianized street, a certain noise level is present.
The local support is very good.
Sehr nette und schön gelegene Wohnung, die sehr gut (Küche, Internet etc.) ausgestattet und liebevoll eingerichtet ist. Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht, von hier aus die Stadt zu erkunden.
Obwohl die Wohnung in einer verkehrsberuhigten Straße liegt, ist ein gewisser Lärmpegel vorhanden.
Die Betreuung vor Ort ist sehr gut.
The apartment is very nice and has everything you need.
The size is absolutely sufficient for 3-4 people and great are the two bathrooms and shower facilities and toilets.
The reception was uncomplicated and very, very friendly - we have received a lot of information and good.
As already mentioned here, it is a regrettable fact that a bar / restaurant in the basement of the apartment and it is very well attended. The bar service (even outdoors) goes to about 3 clock at night ... sleep is difficult. As almost more uncomfortable we have the smell from the kitchen of the restaurant empfunden..sehr shame because the apartment is really nice and the location 1A!
Die Wohnung ist sehr schön und verfügt über alles was man so braucht.
Die Größe ist für 3-4 Personen absolut ausreichend und toll sind die zwei Bäder bzw. Duschmöglichkeiten & Toiletten.
Der Empfang war unkompliziert und sehr sehr freundlich - wir haben sehr viele und gute Informationen erhalten.
Wie hier schon erwähnt ist es jedoch leider so, dass eine Bar/Restaurant im UG der Wohnung ist und diese ist sehr gut besucht. Der Barbetrieb ( auch im Außenbereich ) geht bis ca. 3 Uhr nachts...schlafen wird erschwert. Als fast noch unangenehmer haben wir den Geruch aus der Küche des Restaurants empfunden..sehr schade, da die Wohnung wirklich nett ist und die Lage 1A !
This must be one of the most beautifull appts in Lisbon. The view from the terrace is magnificent and indeed breathtaking. The appartment was very clean. When we return to Lisbon, it will be in this appt.

Matt Vautour of the Daily Hampshire Gazette has a feature on the key role Tajae Sharpe will have on the development of freshman wide receiver Lamarriel Taylor. They gray shirt freshman figures to be the heir-apparent to Sharpe's record setting performances on offense.

Gazette: @UMassFootball star receiver Tajae Sharpe is mentoring a potential future star receiver this spring
Craig Malveaux of the San Diego Union-Times has a feature story that ran last week on incoming freshman wide receiver Lamarriel Taylor and his path from East St. Louis to San Diego to Massachusetts.
Taylor, who lives in Chula Vista, enrolled at Mission Bay for its International Baccalaureate program. He maintained a 4.0 GPA and scored a 2,000 on his SAT.
After sitting out the first six games of his junior year, Taylor earned All-Western League honors as a senior, catching 72 passes for 1,516 yards and three touchdowns while helping lead the Buccaneers (12-2) to a runner-up finish in the San Diego Section Division II playoffs.
Syracuse, Fordham, Georgia State, Massachusetts, Duke and Indiana offered scholarships to Taylor, a 6-foot-2, 185-pound, two-star receiver. Ultimately, UMass felt like home. He joined the Minutemen, whose football program was elevated to FBS status two years ago.
"I always told myself that I'd never give up," said Taylor, who became the first in his family to attend college. "I'm going to amount to something in society and I'm going to achieve my dreams."
PPR's Brandon Stone weekly feature focuses on a Mission Bay wideout that came from the projects of East St. Louis to become one of the best receivers on the West Coast.
