Austin, Texas is already home to Whole Foods, but that won't stop a group of entrepreneurs from founding a new grocery store right in the natural food behemoth's backyard. While the new store In.gredients will also specialize in local and organic ingredients, there's one major difference between this venture and its hometown competion: In.gredients promises to be the country's first ever "package-free, zero waste grocery store."

CHICAGO -- Late in this hard-fought playoff game, with the Chicago Bulls on his back and Tom Thibodeau's breath on his neck, Nate Robinson couldn't cool down.
If you've ever wondered what goes on between Robinson's ears when he plays his special brand of basketball, just think of the announcer's voice on NBA Jam.
"I always think I'm on fire," he said after scoring 34 points in the Bulls' wild 142-134, triple-overtime victory over the Brooklyn Nets. "Like the old school game, NBA Jam, you make a couple and the rim's on fire and when you shoot the ball, the ball's on fire. I feel like that at times. Well, all the time. When I'm in the game, I play with a lot of confidence and you kind of got to lie to yourself that you can't miss."

Inside The Mind of Glenn Beck: Obama's Silence On St. Louis Unrest Will Cause Companies To Move Overseas
During yesterday's morning staff meeting, before President Obama had issued a statement in response to the unrest outside of St. Louis following the shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a police officer, Glenn Beck ripped Obama for not having called for calm, saying that this sort of instability is why American companies moving overseas.
"It's absolutely unbelievable," Beck said, "and especially if you look at it this way: the entire world is on fire, we have companies that are leaving America. Why are the companies leaving America? It's too expensive for them to stay, but also I'm not sure if I'm going to bet on the stability of this place."
"You add instability," Beck lectured his staff, "you add riots on the street, more companies want to leave, more companies overseas say I don't know if I should invest there. We've always been stable. The president has got to call for stability!"

We don't envy the designers who pen bikes for the likes of Triumph or Harley-Davidson. Machines like the Bonneville and Sportster are inherently popular for their nostalgic looks, and die-hard fans are the first to cry foul when the bikes wander too far from the original recipe. As the Triumph Bonneville Speed Twin Concept elegantly illustrates, that's a crying shame. As the brainchild of English designers Roy Norton and Tom Kasher, the Speed Twin is a modern take on the classic Bonneville. The

I've followed a lot of the advice in this book, including how to approach physical activity and some of the supplements suggested, and have had a notable improvement in symptoms. I no longer use prescription anti-inflammatories and rarely need ibuprofen, which amounts to no small miracle after my own PCN reacted to my diagnosis as if I should just give up on life right there in her office. As a very active individual (and very young for the typical arthritis sufferer) this was obviously not an option, and this book went a long way towards helping me get control of my situation and for the most part maintain the lifestyle I had before.
Of course everyone's case is different, but I strongly recommend giving this a read and trying some of his suggestions if, like, me, you've found your healthcare team not up to the task. If you're looking to take control of your care, this book is an excellent place to start.
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
Dr. Grant Cooper has written a concise, clearly understandable guidebook for managing arthritis to achieve the best quality of life. I realized while reading that when I was running fifty miles a week I was doing everything he suggests. The onset of fibromyalgia set me back tremendously but there is no reason I, and anyone who has arthritis, cannot slowly introduce the changes Dr. Cooper enumerates. The brilliance of this book is that, while making arthritis more tolerable, it also will improve your overall health.
The book is divided into five sections. The first is a brief explanation of the workings of your joints and how arthritis develops. The second through fifth are the remedial portions. Dr. Cooper addresses nutrition and his recommendations are in line with those for good health in general. Arthritis sufferers need antioxidants even more than others and there is a list of the most antioxidant-rich foods. Essentially you need to add a large variety of fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. You also need to add more cold water fish as the omega 3 fatty acids are important. You should limit your red meat consumption. All these and the others mentioned are common sense not just for our health but also for the health of the planet. If, as Dr. Cooper suggests, you begin to adjust your eating habits slowly you CAN reach your goal of a healthier diet.
Part III deals with exercise. Counterintuitively it is important to move the affected joints. Dr. Cooper presents stretching and weight bearing exercises with clear explanations and excellent photographs. As with the dietary changes, slowly incorporating exercise into your daily routine can have great benefit and not just for those who suffer from arthritis.
Part IV covers supplements that may help some arthritis sufferers. Not everyone should take supplements and, as throughout the book, there are caveats and recommendations to discuss any changes you contemplate with your doctor.
Part V broaches the topic of surgery. Hopefully this will be a last resort and Dr. Cooper discusses the various degrees of surgery available to those who find it necessary.
I learned quite a lot from this small book and I have been keeping myself informed as best I can about my various forms of arthritis. I believe I can make some of these changes quite easily since I used to live this way. They are all accessible to anyone, however, and when the book comes out you will want to read it if you suffer from arthritis no matter how debilitating.
Dr. Grant Cooper has written a very accessible book about osteoarthritis, one that has relevance for all age groups. For the young, it provides a plan to minimize one of the probable effects of aging. For seniors, it is a guide to ameliorating the effects of arthritis. One of Cooper's goals is to help the reader make lifestyle changes and the book is written and organized to give the reader the information to make those changes.
In Part I, Dr. Cooper describes how joints work and how arthritis begins. Some readers might be tempted to skip this part and go directly to the chapters that give action plans for the reader to follow. That would be a mistake. That would be a mistake. Knowing how the joints work and how arthritis sets in provides a foundation for the subsequent chapters particularly those describing exercise.
Nutrition is covered in Part II. The advice is not faddish and clearly presented. It might be the most difficult aspect of ones life to modify but the author makes a compelling case and relates the effects of diet to the information on joints and arthritis provided in Part I. Dr. Cooper describes why and how he modified his own eating habits which contributes to the effectiveness of the message that proper nutrition plays a major part in preventing the onset of arthritis and easing the effects of an existing condition.
I had already begun an exercise program as described in Part III before reading this book. Dr. Cooper recommends working with a trainer and I endorse that recommendation. I was going to the gym on my own before I engaged a trainer and was astonished at the ineffectiveness of my approach. It is difficult to effectively exercise based on text and photographs in a book. A trainer will make sure that you are performing the exercises and stretches properly to avoid injury and also make sure that you are exercising and stretching the right areas of the body.
Part IV covers supplements. As with nutrition, Dr. Cooper takes a practical, conservative, and balanced, approach that doesn't stray into exotic, supplement remedies popular in infomercials. He is careful to indicate where the benefits of certain supplements have not been conclusively proven but where there is sufficient reason to believe that they will have some effect. I found his discussions on fish oil and glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate particularly interesting as I was taking those supplements before reading the book. For example, while my fish oil supplement is advertised as containing 1,200 mg of fish oil, it is well short of the recommended amount of EPA/DHA.
The subtitle of the book is The Essential Guide to a Pain-Free, Drug Free Life but he necessarily concludes with a section on medication and surgery. He emphasizes that these options need to be done in conjunction with diet, exercise, and nutritional supplements. An analgesic will mask the pain but do nothing to correct the underlying disease causing the pain.
Dr. Cooper's book is a excellent, readable resource for to establish both a preventative as well as a management program for dealing with arthritis.
Dr. Cooper spells out all the key concepts in the first chapters; he goes into detail later.
The sections on nutrition, dietary supplements and exercise are particularly strong. Pages 95-107 are devoted to specific exercises, with photos. I wish Dr. Cooper had included some aquatic exercises in this section but I think I understand why he didn't. He stresses that the best exercises are the ones people will actually do.
Exercises that can be done at home are certainly the most convenient. Still, I think the next edition of The Arthritis Handbook should be expanded to include specific aquatic exercises, illustrated by line drawings.
I recommend The Arthritis Handbook as an excellent "first book" for arthritic patients. You'll learn, for example, why your joints are so stiff upon getting out of bed in the morning, why a good diet and regular exercise are so important and what causes the pain and inflammation in arthritic joints.
The book is not a typical arthritis help book - it is peppered with personal and cultural references that are as informative as they are amusing. The book also includes a glossary to help readers understand medical terminology and a list of websites for readers to learn more about osteoarthritis. Overall, the best aspect of the book is that it encourages patients to communicate with healthcare professionals, and notes key times when patients should seek professional advice.
Despite the fact that the information in the book is sound, the book is somewhat disorganized and at times seems to be addressing two separate audiences. Also, I would have liked to have seen a detailed reference list of the studies described in the book. Ultimately these stylistic shortfalls do not detract from the promising message of the book - osteoarthritis can be managed by lifestyle changes that are described in the book.

So back in early April I sat down with my brother before we watched Wrestlemania on his apple TV… browsing through the tvOS appstore we couldn't find that many co-op games to play which gives me more reason to get Boot Club on there.

Dungeon Time – Our first Unity3D Game
So, while Super Boys was in hiatus (it was handed over for server stuff) – We decided to make a jump to Unity3D… making 3D games!
Kwok and I (Simon) had no experience before the switch in 3D but honestly, that didn't seem to be a problem because of the vast amount of help available online. It REALLY helps if you have a good grasp of English. I guess this is something overlooked when deciding to learn online since the majority of help you'll find is written/spoken in English.
Oh yeah here's the cool thing, Unity (Pro) was made FREE the same time we started learning it so there was no extra money headaches with licenses and all that.
Neither of us knew which 3D tools to pick up, the choice was 3DS Max, Maya or this program Kwok saw that I never heard of called Blender.
Surely Blender wouldn't be any good? I mean, it's free…wait, what… it's FREE? OK what the hell, let's check it out and see if it's any good for the models we need.
I must say that was the best decision we made so far. Blender has been amazingly easy to pick up. The support and tutorials are abundant, the UI is friendly and the files are accepted by Unity! Oh and no need to dish out 10k USD on more licenses. Just remember everything you will experience with our unity games were built with free software, in case anyone out there wondered if it was possible – it is.
That being said, I donated to the Blender Foundation because their software and effort is totally worth it. Donate here!
So, I trawled Youtube for as many quickfire blender tutorials as possible and artists like PigArt on Youtube inspired me very quickly as we made our transition from 2D to 3D. This is what I put together after 2 hours in my maiden week:
6 months later, I think I've made decent progress and although I wish I could go much faster my philosophy has always been to just pick something you love doing and give it your best shot. That's how you make something 'magical' – by caring about what you're doing regardless of how inexperienced you are at it.
For a while, doing 3D modelling became an addiction as I literally sunk in 100 hours a week figuring out X, Y and Z and sleeping way too late trying to create all sorts of nonsense. I think 50% of the work was just learning and getting fast with the keyboard shortcuts. I had already mastered Flash, but now I had to switch to Unity and Blender and not confuse them together.. yeah that was a bit tough.
Right, that was the software part… what about the actual game? We started with a couple ideas, most of them didn't click.. but we knew we wanted the following things
- More randomness to the stage
- Co-operative multiplayer
- Utilize some of the 3D space
- Continue using our built up characters & story
Dungeon Time is a top-down 'Gauntlet' dungeon crawler with the bonus of having a pinch of Mooff Games spice. Bosses, exploring various environments, different characters, ragdoll dying… LOTS of it.
The game supports the idea of people using different characters to compliment each other with healing, protection, damage roles.
We took care of the usually-poor mobile controls with a very smart auto-aiming system without the use of dual-sticks so most of what you care about is your positional awareness and ammo. Tell us how it is later, we really like it.
I think i'll just leave it there for now as we wrap up the remaining parts of the game and target a November 2015 launch date for iOS & Android. It's a free game, with the option of unlocking the whole thing for $1.99. Will this be a hidden gem? Probably… you heard it here first then
Trailer to follow when it's time… Dungeon Time!

The omens weren't good, to put it mildly, but it actually turned out to be a surprisingly entertaining and ambitious retelling of the troubled relationship between Lord Fairfax and his deputy Oliver Cromwell in the aftermath of the English Civil War. I can't vouch for its historical accuracy (widely criticized in the UK), but as drama it works very well, despite the fact that Roth's Cromwell isn't at the top of his game while Scott lacks the voice for the rabble-rousing speeches (although he's much better here than his usual lacklustre screen performances).
It's well-directed and hides the budget problems that saw the picture shut down for a few weeks while they scrambled for money to finish the picture quite admirably. It has a sense of scale both in story and treatment and, though it loses momentum slightly after the king's death, it deserved to find the audience it was denied in cinemas. Certainly a notch above the usual staid British historical picture, it's well worth a look.
The simple reason for the criticism is that the audience waiting for this film wanted something a bit more realistic and historically accurate. This is a subject that fascinates me (having read Antonia Frasier's "Cromwell" and "Charles II" plus "The Trial of Charles I: A Documentary History"). Sadly, there is too much going on to satisfy in almost all directions. We don't get to see much of the trial of Charles I, we don't get to see any of the Civil War, Pride's Purge is fairly swiftly done, and then we get a massive time lapse of Cromwell's rise and fall all in an hour and a half. Too much is happening and not enough time to allow the audience to care.
To say this is a bad movie, however, is just wrong. I suggest that the producers didn't quite understand the audience for this subject as most costume dramas are aimed at a female audience. However, there truly isn't anything feminine in this story (Fairfax's wife's time on screen is a little overdone.) All this could have been fixed with a longer runtime and a bit slower pace.
Since we aren't likely to see another film on this subject again in the near future, this is worth a look.
Richard II, Act iii. Sc. 2.
Oliver Cromwell and Thomas Fairfax led the Puritan revolt against Charles I that resulted in what as known as the Civil Wars. In the mind of Cromwell and his supporters, Charles I led a series of bloody civil wars against the Parliamentary forces that challenged Charles I's right to absolute rule. These civil wars caused the death of approximately 10% of Britain's adult males. It was a bloody time. Eventually, Cromwell and his supporters determined that the only way to end the civil wars was to put Charles I to trial. The trial and subsequent execution of Charles I was a watershed event that left England a republic (albeit only temporarily) and created the legal theory that tyranny was not a right of rulers but a crime against the ruled. The trial destroyed forever the right of kings to act with impunity from justice and the principles established at this trial still exist today and were evident at trials from Nuremberg to Yugoslavia.
"To Kill a King" sets out to tell the story of the trial and execution of King Charles I at the hands of Oliver Cromwell and his republican/Puritan army. However, the film's centerpiece is not, sad to say, the trial of Charles I but, rather, the complex and emotional relationship between Oliver Cromwell and his closest ally, Lord General Thomas Fairfax. The result is a film that, while interesting in its own right, misses the opportunity to explore one of history's most important events.
Director Mike Barker (and his cinematographer) does a commendable job in evoking the horror of the Civil Wars.Read more ›

Henry Theodore Tuckerman
|Henry Theodore Tuckerman
Henry Theodore Tuckerman (April 20, 1813 – December 17, 1871) was an American writer, essayist and critic.
Tuckerman was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He was a sympathetic and delicate critic, with a graceful style. He wrote extensively both in prose and verse. He travelled much in Italy, which influenced his choice of subjects in his earlier writings. These include The Italian Sketch-book (1835); Isabel, or Sicily: A Pilgrimage (1839); two volumes of verse, Poems (1851) and A Sheaf of Verse (1864); Thoughts on the Poets (1864); The Criterion, or the Test of Talk About Familiar Things (1866); The Book of the Artists (1867); Leaves from the Diary of a Dreamer, etc. He was prominent in the literary life of New York City after 1845.
Articles that Tuckerman wrote for The Knickerbocker magazine include: "Love in a Lazzaret" (1838), a vignette from his travels in Italy, "New York Artists" (1856), "Something About Wine" (1858), "Newport Out of Season" (1858), "Italia Libera" (1861), "Paris and Life There" (1861), "Obituary of John W. Francis, M.D., LL.D." (1861).

Version 6 helps prevent internal data theft or accidental malicious downloads
Desktop PCs are like sieves when it comes to potential data leaks. Each port and drive is like a hole through which data can escape or be stolen.
Firewalls and encryption can protect a network from external threats, but locally unsecured devices and ports are vulnerable to internal attacks or simple carelessness.
Endpoint security products aim to prevent those types of data loss. One such product is DeviceLock from SmartLine, which we reviewed a couple of years ago. We found the product an easy-to-use, highly customizable and effective way to prevent internal data theft or accidental malicious downloads.
The company recently released Version 6.0 of the product, which contains several significant new features and improvements.
The core functionality of the product remains the same. It prevents leaks by controlling user access to devices and ports on a PC. It does this by intercepting every request from a user to the device and then checking to see whether the user has permission to use the device. If not, the user receives an "access denied" message.
DeviceLock can protect a surprisingly long list of ports and devices. They include USB ports, FireWire ports, serial ports, parallel ports, Bluetooth adapters, Wi-Fi adapters, CD and DVD drives (including writable drives), floppy drives, tape devices and removable storage devices such as memory sticks, flash drives, external hard drives and Iomega Zip drives.
We like the one-stop shopping interface that lets you view computers that are running DeviceLock, remotely deploy the software and set permissions for each device type. Setting time and day access for users or groups is a simple matter of selecting squares on a grid.
One important new feature in DeviceLock 6.0 is an optional data-shadowing capability. Data shadowing captures all data that users copy to removable devices, burn to CDs and DVDs, or print. The shadow copies can reveal whether the duplication breaches the agency's data integrity policy.
Another new feature is the Media White List, which allows administrators to authorize access to specific DVD/CD-ROM disks even when DeviceLock has otherwise blocked access to the DVD/CD-ROM drive. DeviceLock identifies the allowable disks by a special data signature.
If anyone changes the content of the disk, the data signature will change and DeviceLock will then block that disk. This safeguard prevents people from using a white-listed disk to introduce unwanted data to the network.
The Media White List is useful to agencies that routinely use CDs and DVDs to distribute software or instruction manuals over the network. This feature can also let administrators specify allowed users and groups so that only authorized users can access the contents of the disk.
DeviceLock 6.0 also offers an improved and integrated Active Directory Group Policy Manager console. The console allows DeviceLock to be as scalable as any Active Directory environment, allowing administrators to manage hundreds of thousands of Microsoft Windows desktop PCs.
DeviceLock can also manage any Lightweight Directory Access Protocol network of Windows PCs, including mixed network operating system environments.
Pricing starts at $35 per license with volume discounts beginning at 25 licenses.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
Talen Jacek was tall, dark and delicious, with a face that haunted Keri Maddox's dreams ... and a body that inspired her fantasies.
He stood in her kitchen, glaring at her Mr. Coffee. The only barrier between her feasting eyes and his scrumptious body was a snowy cotton towel slung low on his hips. Outside of a large jagged scar that cut diagonally across his chest, he was a study in male perfection. Somehow, that one imperfection made him that much more stunning. It made him look dangerous.
Tiny droplets of water glistened on his wide, suntanned shoulders and smooth-skinned chest, and his dark, wavy hair was a riot of damp curls. Her fingers just itched to slide through their tangled, sexy thickness, to trace the intricate lines of the amazing black and grey tattoo of a bird, spread wings stretched from one side of his upper back to the other.
It was a sight straight out of last night's fantasy.
The only problem was, Talen was in the wrong apartment.
Keri knew for a fact that she'd locked her door this morning when she'd left for work, and Talen didn't have a key. Talen didn't have a key because they weren't dating. They weren't roommates. They weren't even friends. Heck, they'd exchanged nothing but polite small talk since Talen had moved into the building. Granted, they'd exchanged more than their share of heated looks.
Sadly, he'd never made his move.
"Uh, hello?" Unable to stop from openly ogling her almost-naked neighbor, Keri dropped her purse on the counter. "What are you doing in my apartment, besides the obvious--abusing my coffeemaker?"
Talen glanced up, his expression shifted from nondomestic male confusion tobeaming heartbreaker on-the-prowl. Keri caught the edge of the counter to steady herself.
"Hi. Sorry. I had a little accident." He motioned to the stove, which was coated with some sort of red substance--funny, she hadn't noticed that disaster before now. "I was trying to make spaghetti but the sauce sort of ... burped all over me. So I jumped in the shower. I'm afraid I'm not exactly the King of Domesticity."
What gave Talen the idea that she'd expected him to be anything but the silent and mysterious neighbor with the adorable dimples?
"Ooookay." She went to the coffeemaker and started it. Oddly, she felt like she might need some hefty doses of caffeine tonight. She normally cut off all caffeine after six. Her body tingled all over when she shuffled past the mostly unclothed Talen, heading to the sink to arm herself with a wet sponge and some spray cleaner for the stove. She dumped the pot of soggy noodles she found in the sink before heading back to the stove. Once she checked the burners, making sure they were cool, she doused the entire stovetop in cleaner. "I'm afraid you've lost me. So, how about you start from the very beginning, like when you decided you needed to break into my apartment--"
"Oh, I didn't break in. The other guy did."
Huh? "What other guy? Where?" Suddenly realizing there might be a reason to be concerned about Talen's unexpected visit, she glanced around her kitchen.
She hadn't noticed anything odd when she'd first entered her apartment. Her door had been locked. The door itself had shown no obvious signs of a break-in, nothing to catch her attention. Her living room had been in its usual tidy state. The only thing out of the ordinary had been Talen.
Then again, maybe she'd been too distracted by his yummy self to notice anything else. Heck, she'd totally missed the mess on the stove until he'd pointed it out.
"You're telling me someone broke in? Like a burglar?" She swung around and checked the sliding door to her tiny balcony, wondering if the suspected burglar had come in that way. Unlikely as that was, since she lived on the second floor, she supposed it was possible.
"I'm guessing it was a burglar, although I'm not absolutely sure..."
The balcony door was shut, the curtains undisturbed. Pivoting again, she glanced at Talen. "Someone was really in my apartment? How do you know?"
"Because ... I heard something, a noise. Thud. No, a thump. And when I came to check, thinking you might've fallen, the door was hanging wide open."
"That's strange. A loud noise? Nothing seems to be knocked down. I wonder why anyone would break in..." Forgetting for a moment about her nearly naked guest, she hurried toward her bedroom, the room that was closest to Talen's apartment.
"I didn't see any sign of damage to the door or forced entry. But I did find something. Does this look familiar?" Behind her, Talen extended his arm, unfurling his fingers.
A gold cufflink.
A very unique and memorable cufflink.
Oh no. "Where?" The air left her lungs in a huff, and she staggered backward on shaky legs. Her hands flew to her face as she struggled to gulp in some much-needed air. Her stomach twisted in her belly. No, no, no!
"Keri?" Talen caught her upper arms and jerked her against him, wrapping her in a protective embrace. "What's wrong?"
Immediately, the awful nausea in her belly eased.
Mark Hayward, Esq. had taken their so-called breakup pretty badly, and after he'd showed up one night drunk and belligerent, she'd even filed for a personal protection order against him. Her application had been dismissed by the judge, but her threat to try again seemed to work when he showed up drunk a few nights later. He'd left her alone for a couple months. Until now.
Obviously, the spoiled-rich-kid-turned-attorney-slash-party-boy decided she wouldn't go through with the PPO, or maybe he knew it would be denied.
Darn it, she'd hoped he'd finally moved on, found someone else to obsess over. Stalk. He was a freaking lawyer. Who would've thought a guy with an impeccable reputation, a thriving law practice and more money than he could spend in ten lifetimes would be such a nutcase when it came to women?
What made things more confusing was the fact that they'd never officially been a couple. They'd only dated casually for a few weeks. And that was months ago.
"I'm okay. Honest ... I think." She wriggled free from Talen's protective hold and headed toward her door. "That cufflink you found belongs to a guy I dated a while back. How'd he get in? Did you see him?"
"I think I missed him by seconds. The elevator door shut just as I came around the corner. I got only a glimpse of a guy with dark hair, shorter than me. Dark complexion."
"That's Mark."
"Mmmm, if you're not dating him anymore, you might want to get your key back."
"Key? I don't know how he'd get my key. I never gave him one. We were never that serious. And I haven't talked to him in months. Ohmygosh, I need to get the locks changed." She twisted the deadbolt and walked in a circle, not sure what to do first.
Talen stood silent, tracking her movement back and forth with his eyes. "I don't think you should stay here tonight."
"Great, now what?" She couldn't think, couldn't prioritize. What should she do first, call the apartment's office to request a new lock or go pack some stuff? Where would she stay? The thought of camping in some stupid hotel made her insides twist into knots.
This was insane--having to run from her home, to leave everything she owned and go into hiding because of one insane man who didn't know how to deal with rejection.
Would he just get over it already? Sheesh, she'd hate to see how he reacted when an honest-to-god girlfriend dumped him.
A part of her bristled at the notion that she'd have to let him basically bully her out of her own home, even temporarily. But the other part of her--the one that wasn't sure how demented he was--reminded her that being safe always trumped making a point. She'd watched enough of those true crime shows on television to know that a guy like this could be capable of some really horrific things.
Multitasking, she went for the cordless phone, punching the numbers for the apartment complex's office while hurrying around her bedroom. As she waited for someone to answer, she started tossing clothes into an overnight bag then rushed to the bathroom to gather some essentials.
After about twenty rings, she glanced at the clock.
Just freaking great. It was after six. The office was closed until tomorrow.
Talen was still standing in the kitchen, in her bath towel, when she returned from the bedroom. He poured her a cup of freshly brewed coffee and handed it to her. "Want to tell me what's going on? Maybe I can help somehow."
"Oh, I don't want to drag you into my troubles. Like I said, the cufflink belongs to a guy I ... dated casually--emphasis on casually--for a short time. Short, as in a couple of weeks. Clearly, he has issues with rejection. Unfortunately, he's not only the sole son of our governor but also a well-known lawyer with a brilliant future in politics ahead of him. No one wants to believe me when I say he's stalking me. Not even the police." She plucked the piece of jewelry from where Talen had left it on her kitchen counter and stuffed it into her pocket.
"Where are you going?" he asked.
"To the police station. Again. And then ... I don't know." She sagged against a bar stool, dropping the overnight bag on the floor at her feet. "I guess I'll stay in a hotel until I can get the locks changed. This sucks. Why's he doing this? There's nothing here he could want. And it's not like what we had was all that great." Her cheeks warmed as Talen's brows knitted in surprise. "What I mean is, there are plenty of other women out there who don't mind a guy who's a bit on the controlling side. He's rich. Good looking. Me, I'd rather not deal with it, regardless of the size of his investment portfolio."
Talen nodded. "Got it." He kicked a foot over the other and leaned into the counter. "I have an idea. Just hear me out. You should stay with me instead of going to a hotel. That way you could come to your place and get what you need when you want, and you won't be alone--which is probably not safe, no matter where you stay. Plus, we can keep an eye on the place, maybe catch him in the act, so he'll be arrested or at least you'll be able to get that PPO."
That sounded like a good plan. A brilliant one, actually. The fact that she'd be staying with Talen, who had at least thirty pounds on her psycho-stalking lawyer, as well as a good four inches, made the idea all the more tempting. And even better, it would give her a chance to get to know this charming man with the dimples, enormous tattoo that spanned his back from shoulder to ass, and to-die-for body. Mmmm, he was something to look at.
"Are you sure?" she asked.
"I mean, this is asking a lot. What if stalker-lawyer-guy finds out I'm staying with you? He could come down and start giving you trouble too."
"Believe me, I know how to deal with guys like him. I can handle it."
She wanted to believe him, boy did she ever. "Can I ask, since we've hardly spoken before today, are you married? I'm not going to get in the way, am I?"
He shook his head. "Nope. Not married..."
He crossed his thick arms over his chest and leaned a hip against the counter. "And you won't be in my way. So, do you have everything you need?"
She took a second to glance around, but her mind wasn't focused. "Can I ask, what do you do? I'm not going to get you into trouble or anything, am I?"
"Not at all. I'm in the ... security field. Personal security."
"You mean, like a bodyguard?" This was too much of a coincidence to believe. Her nerves started twitching.
"Yeah, like a bodyguard. I protect people, individuals. And at the moment I'm between jobs..."
Another coincidence.
The phone started ringing, yanking her attention to the handset sitting on the counter. She lifted it, glancing at the caller-ID display.
Mark's number. Ack!
Her heart literally stopped beating for a second.
Now what? Stay with the bodyguard, who just happened to be gorgeous, single and between jobs when she needed his services? Or take her chances on her own?
Her eyes jerked back to Talen.
Merely standing there, he gave off this dangerous, predatory vibe while still, somehow, making her feel safe and protected.
He smiled.
Her body proclaimed its choice.
The phone rang again, and a shiver of anticipation skittered up her spine. She snatched up the phone, hoping Mark would explain everything and then she wouldn't have to go anywhere.
But there was a click and the call ended.
A second later, the phone rang again, and hopeful the first call had been cut short because of a bad connection, she answered, "Hello? Mark?"
This time, he said nothing. Only breathed.
Creepy! She hung up.
The phone rang again, and she threw her hands into the air. How could she think logically with so much going on? "Fine. I'll stay with you. But only on one condition--I pay the same price for your services as every other client would."
"I'm good with that if you are." He offered his hand.
She took it, and yet another zing of energy zapped up her arm. Her cheeks heated and she dropped her gaze to his navel. It had to be one of the sexiest belly buttons she'd ever seen. And of course it was situated dead center on one of the sexiest bellies she'd ever seen too. He had to have noticed she was gawking by now. Searching for safer territory, she snapped her head to the side and stared out the window instead. "Ooookay then."
A quick shake of his hand, and the deal was sealed.
A few bits of her anatomy did a happy dance.
"So, have you worked for anyone famous?" It had taken a few hours, and a fruitless trip to the police station--they still didn't believe her!--before Keri was finally starting to feel a smidge more comfortable with her new fulltime bodyguard. The fact that Talen was finally semiclothed helped a bit.
Wearing a pair of shorts and a snug black tank shirt that showed off his chest and shoulders to perfection, he lay sprawled on his very masculine black leather couch, the remote control in one fist, a can of cola in the other. Your typical guy. King of his castle.
She sat on the matching loveseat, her legs curled beneath her, a pillow propping her back and a coverlet thrown over her legs. Her head was mere inches from his, thanks to the relative position of the couch to the love seat. Definitely close enough to get a good look at that stunning face of his.
Cozy, her stomach full of Italian takeout and a couple of glasses of white wine, she was feeling better about things by the minute. Who knew? Maybe Mark had done her a favor tonight by pulling the stalker act. If he hadn't, Talen might have never gotten over his shyness or whatever it was that had kept him from saying more than "hey" when they passed in the hallway.
He took a swig from his can then set it on the coffee table with a clunk. "Yeah, you could call a few of them famous, I guess."
"Cool." She leaned closer. "Like who?"
His eyes twinkled as he shook his head, his lips quirking into a smile that hinted at lots of secrets. "Can't tell you. It's in my contract."
"Even if you're not working for them anymore?"
"Yep." In the next several heartbeats of silence that followed, his gaze wandered over her face, making her a little squirmy, but in a good way.
She wondered if there was anything in the contract that forbade him from kissing her. He licked his lips, and her gaze lingered on the slick path his tongue had left behind.
"Have you been anywhere interesting?" she heard herself ask. How the heck had she managed to string together so many words in a row?
"Yes, I have. I've traveled all over Europe, Asia, Africa..."
Was it her, or was the heat cranked up to ninety? She pushed the coverlet off her lap and smoothed her hair into a ponytail, lifting it off her shoulders.
Twisting to face her, Talen tilted his head and reached, gathering the column of hair in his hands, and she knew, without a doubt, that he was going to kiss her.
Any second now.
He inched closer and she held her breath.
Her eyelids shuttered closed, and a comforting blackness cut off her sight, allowing her other senses to amplify. She could hear the soft, steady whoosh of his breathing. And the nerves in her neck and shoulders jangled from the fleeting touch of his knuckles as they scraped across her nape.
"You're beautiful." He was so close that his words fell like puffs of sweet-scented air on her mouth. "Do you know how many times I've wanted to do this...?"
"Do what?" she whispered, fully intending the words to be an invitation. Hot and tight, her body reacted to the sensations raining upon it like a spring shower--the erotic hunger she heard in his voice, the scent of his skin, the almost cruelly soft way he held her hair. She licked her lips, tasting the lingering flavor of wine. His mouth gently caressed hers, and she sagged against the loveseat's arm, drowning in sensual heat.
His fingers splayed, supporting the back of her head. He traced the seam of her mouth with his tongue, not exactly begging entrance but more or less making his intentions clear.
She eagerly opened, welcoming the sweet invasion. His tongue swept into her mouth, gliding over hers, a show of raw male possession. The fingers holding her head gently kneaded her scalp as his tongue and lips worked magic.
A kiss had never been so devastating. Her mind--usually delighted to scream all kinds of shoulds and shouldn'ts--went totally silent.
Wherever this was going, she wasn't about to fight it.
He broke the kiss for an agonizing second or two. "Damn, you taste good." He stood, walked around the end of the couch and paced back and forth once, twice, a third time. His head down, he shoved his fingers through his hair. "Dammit."
"Is something wrong?"
His eyes found hers. "Yes. No." He charged toward her, caging her shoulders between his outstretched arms. "You taste so sweet, like honey. I want more."
A soft moan slipped between her lips, and a tremor raced up her spine. "Yes, more," she pleaded, relinquishing to the desire swirling through her. "Kiss me again." Oh, how beautiful he made her feel as he looked down upon her with flames flickering in his dark eyes. Pretty but also vulnerable and overpowered. It was a thrilling combination.
He climbed overtop of her, wedging one knee between her hip and the back of the loveseat and balancing the other one on the edge of the cushion. Bending his arms, he levered lower, until the heat radiating from his bulk warmed her simmering body and his mouth hovered over hers again. She closed her eyes and let her entire being focus on the place where his mouth met hers, and their tongues mated.
With every stab and stroke, the warmth in her body edged up another degree and the tension coiling deep in her belly knotted tighter. And yet she couldn't stop, couldn't stand the thought of tearing her mouth from his, even if it meant she'd burn up from fever or die from heart failure.
Never had she been kissed by a man like this, so incredibly strong and striking.
Dizzy. Hot.
She reached up and looped her arms around his neck, pulling him down, anxious to feel his hard body pressed firmly against hers, his hips wedged between her spread thighs.
A pounding ache was gathering there, in her center, and she rocked her hips, desperate to grind it away, hoping he wouldn't deny her the pleasure his kisses were promising.
Another sensual brush of his mouth across hers and then he straightened up, pulling her with him until she was sitting completely vertically, and his bent legs were straddling her tight and trembling thighs.
She watched, breathless, as he swallowed and smiled down at her.
He shook his head and dragged his fingers through his hair. "I'm sorry."
Oh God, he was apologizing. That was the last thing she wanted. It had been such a long time since a man had looked at her like that--like she was a desirable, sexy woman. Since a man had touched her. Talked to her with a voice gritty with barely contained wanting.
"I'm not sorry," she stated matter-of-factly. Her heart lurched in her chest when she realized she was going to actually admit she'd been attracted to him all this time. Guys didn't like to hear stuff like that. Her words just might send him running.
She knew a woman on the hunt tended to do that to men--turn them into skittery cowards. She'd watched her mother chase away enough good guys to have learned that lesson early. They liked things to go the other way. She did too. But for some reason, she sensed Talen needed to know she was okay with this, that she held no expectations other than those promised in his touches and kisses.
"I noticed you the very first day you moved into the building," she whispered. "I've waited, hoping, wanting..." Oh God, she sounded so sappy. "Not that I'm expecting anything. But I wanted you to know I don't feel taken advantage of here. Okay? I'm not letting this happen because I'm feeling scared or vulnerable right now. I've wanted this--whatever this might be--for a while. Because I think you're the most intriguing man I've ever met."
He cupped her cheek and ran his thumb over her lip, and she stared up into his eyes, wishing she could read whatever secrets she saw in their shadowed depths. She knew he was struggling with something and wished she could find the right words to put whatever inner battle he was waging to rest.

No not really depends on bit of luck with the proc heal but if you champs duel and fight on wargs are easy.
Champs are not UP just not as OP as they used to be or like other classes atm.
Red champ using all skills should beat most creeps except maybe high rank reavers.
Read the tooltip of Shadow.
Claws, Maul and Pounce is not block, parry or evade able.
There's one you really have to worry about and watch is Knives out. Learn how that icon looks like and when...
Another good solution is to make it like WoW where if youre in a safe place (for pvp it would be gv and grams) you can logout instantly but when youre not it takes much longer
Wargs are in pretty good position atm without doubt but each freep class has at least one trait line that can beat wargs or at least make em hips away.
hunter - trap
captain - yellow without...
When so so players like rab looks good theres something wrong definitely. Don't even mention Banenakh.
I would have been so impressed if it was 3 creeps killing 8 acta non verba 12.1 but oh well
Yet you dont need selective memories about apocalypse lol.

EDITED & SOVLED (below)
I'm using Java for Android trying to send the byte 255 (0xFF in WriteSingleCoil function) to a ModBUS server device.
Device is not runnig, I don't know if because of not able to interpretate the signed byte -1 or because of I'm wrong calculating the CRC. I don't know how to calculate CRC for negative bytes.
Summarizing: I don't know how to send function 05 Write Single Coil with 0xFF value for switch on the coil for from Java to ModBUS server.
Can anyone help me please?
" iIndex = ucCRCLo ^ b: operations like this must be written as iIndex = (ucCRCLo ^ b)&0xff because the & will cast ucCRCLo, b and the result to int, which is 32 bits while short is 16 so you will have a lot of extra bits set to 1 "
This answer helped me. Thanks a lot to TheDayOfcondor
But also my huge problem was the usual problem in Java with signed bytes. My CRC calculating function is doing it right for unsigned bytes, but it give errors if I pass inside signed bytes. The trick for work with bytes for ModBUS comunication is work in the whole App with shorts as bytes, for have the range 0-255, even calculating trames and CRC. And only in the last step, when sending trame to ModBUS sever, cast them to bytes again. This is running.
Hope it will helps to someone in future.
I'm trying to set ON a coil to ModBUS with function 05, this is explaining of function:
I'm tryiing to set ON the coil on address 1:
This hex: 0A 05 00 01 ff 00 DC 81
This byte array: 10 5 0 1 255 0 220 129
10: The Slave Address (10 = 0A hex)
05: The Function Code (Force Single Coil)
0001: The Data Address of the coil. (coil# 1 = 01 hex)
FF00: The status to write ( FF00 = ON, 0000 = OFF )
DC81: The CRC (cyclic redundancy check) for error checking.
The thing is that Java is using signed bytes, so I can't put 255 on my byte array. I understand I should put -1, but then I can't calculate CRC correctly, because of I have a couple of precalculated array of bytes for get the CRC but the function send a negative index.
So: I don't know if I'm doing right trying to send -1, if I have an alternative for sending 255, neither how to calculate CRC for -1.
This is function for calculate CRC:
public short[] GenerateCRC (byte[] pMsg) {
short ucCRCHi = 0xFF;
short ucCRCLo = 0xFF;
int iIndex;
for (byte b : pMsg)
iIndex = ucCRCLo ^ b;
try {
ucCRCLo = (short)(ucCRCHi ^ aucCRCHi[ ( iIndex ) ]);
ucCRCHi = aucCRCLo[ ( iIndex ) ];
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e(LOGTAG, "GenerateCRC: " + e.toString(), e);
short[]result= new short[2];
result0]= ucCRCHi;
result1]= ucCRCLo;
return result;

On the Battlefields of Business, Millions of Casualties
Published: March 3, 1996
(Page 2 of 8)
The conundrum is that what companies do to make themselves secure is precisely what makes their workers feel insecure. And because workers are heavily represented among the 38 million Americans who own mutual funds, they unwittingly contribute to the very pressure from Wall Street that could take away their salaries even as it improves their investment income.
The job apprehension has intruded everywhere, diluting self-worth, splintering families, fragmenting communities, altering the chemistry of workplaces, roiling political agendas and rubbing salt on the very soul of the country. Dispossessed workers like Steven Holthausen are finding themselves on anguished journeys they never imagined, as if being forced to live the American dream of higher possibilities in reverse.
Many Americans have reacted by downsizing their expectations of material comforts and the sweetness of the future. In a nation where it used to be a given that children would do better than their parents, half of those polled by The Times thought it unlikely that today's youth would attain a higher standard of living than they have. What is striking is that this gloom may be even more emphatic among prosperous and well-educated Americans. A Times survey of the 1970 graduating class at Bucknell University, a college known as an educator of successful engineers and middle managers, found that nearly two-thirds doubted that today's children would live better. White-collar, middle-class Americans in mass numbers are coming to understand first hand the chronic insecurity on which the working class and the poor are experts.
All of this is causing a pronounced withdrawal from community and civic life. Visit Dayton, Ohio, a city fabled for its civic cohesion, and see the detritus. When Vinnie Russo left his job at National Cash Register and went to another city, the 85 boys of Pack 530 lost their Cubmaster, and they still don't have a new one. Many people are too tired, frustrated or busy for activities they used to enjoy, like church choir.
The effects billow beyond community participation. People find themselves sifting for convenient scapegoats on which to turn their anger, and are adopting harsher views toward those more needy than themselves.
Those who have not lost their jobs and their identities, and do not expect to, are also being traumatized. The witnesses, the people who stay employed but sit next to empty desks and wilting ferns, are grappling with the guilt that psychologists label survivor's syndrome. At Chemical Bank, a department of 15 was downsized to just one woman. She sobbed for two days over her vanished colleagues. Why them? Why not me?
The intact workers are scrambling to adjust. They are calculating the best angles to job security, including working harder and shrewder, and discounting the notion that a paycheck is an entitlement. The majority of people polled by The Times said they would work more hours, take fewer vacation days or accept lesser benefits to keep their jobs.
Even the most apparent winners are being singed. A generation of corporate managers have terminated huge numbers of people, and these firing-squad veterans are fumbling for ways to shush their consciences. Richard A. Baumbusch was a manager at CBS in 1985 when a colleague came to him for advice: Should he buy a house? Mr. Baumbusch knew the man's job was doomed, yet felt bound by his corporate duty to remain silent. The man bought the house, then lost his job. Ten years have passed, but Mr. Baumbusch cannot forget.
A Question of Expectations
One factor making this period so traumatic is that since World War II people have expected that their lives and those of their children would steadily improve. "It's important to recall that throughout American history, discontent has always had less to do with material well-being than with expectations and anxiety," David Herbert Donald, a social historian at Harvard, said. "You read that 40,000 people are laid off at AT&T and a shiver goes down your back that says, 'That could be me,' even if the fear is exaggerated. What we are reacting against is the end of a predictable kind of life, just as the people who left the predictable rhythms of the farm in the 1880's felt such a loss of control once they were in the cities."
As the clangor from politicians over the jobs issue has begun to be heard, aspirants to public office may find an audience in that group of households in which a lost job produced a major crisis.
The Times poll revealed something of their signature. Only 28 percent, versus 44 percent of the entire population, say they are as well off as they imagined at this juncture of their lives. The vast majority feel the country is going in the wrong direction, and they are more pessimistic about the economy. They are more likely than the overall population to be divorced or separated. They are better educated. Politically, they are more apt to label themselves liberal. They are more likely to favor national health insurance, and to say that curbing government programs like Medicare, Medicaid and welfare is a misguided idea. And more than 63 percent, compared with 47 percent in the whole population, want the Government to do something about job losses.

High quality 100% beeswax tapers and pine caskets
Please note the taper price increase to $10 per pound.
We have absorbed the increases in raw wax price for many years, only raising our price once in 15 years from $7 to $8 per pound, when the price of raw beeswax has more than doubled. In order to stay in business we can do so no longer. We believe this new price to be fair and even low-average to average of what others are charging. We thank all our customers for their support!
