In November of 1996 I was waiting to move into a new apartment. I stopped at a small store in my town to pick up a few things and as I walked into the store I saw a little grey cat.
I found out later that week when I saw kitty again that the so-called owner shut him outside in the middle of winter because he decided he didn't want him so he figured he would just let it freeze to death outside in the middle of winter. My blood boiled. I also realized this kitty was not grey but cream colored. The grey was dirt.
When moving day came, I jumped into the car to go and get kitty.He had such a distinguished look about him. I named him Thompson.
First stop: the vet. He was estimated as a two year old non altered male with ring worms and a nasty mite infection that had progressed into his canals. So I spent the next couple of weeks squirting him with mite meds and worm stuff. In the midst of all that he developed an upper respiratory infection so antibiotics were added.
All the while I'm trying to get him to use the box (which he wasn't doing) and slowly getting him to trust me.
After all the meds and all the problems, I finally got him neutered. He learned how to use the box, play with his toys and about a year later acquired a sister named Josie.
It's been fourteen years now. Thompson is now 16. He chases 13 year old Josie around the house, bites her head and then they roll into each other a fall asleep. I look at him sometimes remembering all I went through with him. It was worth it. Glad he chose me.
I adopted Tencha from H.O.P.E. Animal Shelter in Ironwood, MI in July 2007. At the time she was only 7 months old and had already spent a good deal of time in the shelter. All I know is she had spent most of her life chained outside with little human contact and then put into the shelter.
As a husky she's now found a pack leader and is as happy and spoiled as can be! She was so happy to be going home that the first car ride home she happily talked to us the entire 1+ drive. She loves my parents and as well as myself, but she's mine completely. I saved her and she's since saved me in many small ways and is my rock in life. I couldn't imagine my life without her!
She is still terribly afraid of strangers, but seems to finally *maybe* be growing out it. She will be with me until it's time for her to go play with Samantha (my first dog, her first "sister") in the afterlife.
My little Socks was just hours from being killed at the local shelter before I adopted her. A friend who worked there told me about her-- said she was a good cat but didn't do well in a shelter situation. Deemed unadoptable, she was slated to be killed. Socks has had a hard life. Surrendered in 2005 with a poorly healed broken back right leg. Picked up as a stray in 2008. Scheduled to be killed 6 months later. Just last month I got new xrays of her leg which showed how bad her break really was, and she has no more cartilage left in her knee; she's going to be 11 in January so pain meds will have to do. She's a good girl and very loved!
This adorable little man was left behind by our neighbors (@!!#) this August. We couldn't believe what they named him (Big Ass Bitch) so we quickly gave him a new name that suited him. My husband suggested Partly Cloudy because he's gray and bright white. Since he had his claws and was neutered he spent the summer outside and we started feeding him. Whenever we'd pick him up he'd cuddle and hug like he never wanted to let go. Unfortunatly we tried to let him in the house and one of my fur babies chased him out the door so we decided to find another forever home for him. This is the 3rd kitty that has come to me and my husband for help and we are so privlaged to be able to help. Finally, one of my friends thought that PC would make a good friend for her kitty so she came and got him yesterday and he was so happy to be held and loved he was drooling! He knew he was going home :) Thanks to everyone who opens thier homes and thier hearts to animals when others won't or don't.
I had a cat Pooh, who had to be put down due to Leukemia, so my dad took me to the shelter to find another......I saw Booger and fell in love immediately...But was sealed the deal was the fact that the next day, he would be put down since he hadn't been adopted....I took him home right away!! I have had him since March 6, 1996!! I have no idea how old he is since he was full grown when I got him, but I hope he is with me for many hears to come. He loves to sleep under covers between us and stays on our laps while we are watching TV...We couldn't have asked for a bigger buddy or better friend!!
It's been almost a year since I found Pumpkin on PetFinder. We brought him home early December, 2009. He's a little over a year old now, and a huge cat already.
We say he has "hands", instead of paws. He pulled up the kitchen a/c vent with his hand, something I've never seen a cat do, but luckily I was standing right there and frantically put 2 cans of soup on it so it would be too heavy to lift, until a permanent solution to the vent could be found. He turned on the blender one night, again, something I've never seen a cat do. We were sound asleep when he did that.
His favorite toy is now a laser light. He chases it all over the place, and just stands in front of my husband, wanting him to turn it back on.
He is such a good cat, funny, very playful, mischievious, lovable. We are so lucky we found him, and are just crazy about him.
Here he is just hangin out in his favorite spot.
Phantom was found at our local "green boxes" where it seems everyone dumps unwanted trash - including cats and kittens, dogs and puppies. He was full of mats and burrs. Lucky for him we found him and he was curious enough to come out of the bushes. Naturally I took him home! That was two years ago and he has grown into the most affectionate, most beautiful animal I have ever seen.
Mouse (the little one) was adopted from our local shelter; he was brought in as a very tiny baby and hand fed. He has grown nicely and is now permanent part of our family.
Everyone says when you adopt an animal you save their life, but in one second they could save yours. I adopted my beloved cat Marbles from a local humane society when I first moved in with my drunk of a ex-boyfriend. My ex-boyfriend, being a drunk, a few months after we got Marbles, fell asleep with a cigarette in his hand (this was before fire safe cigs) and he started a small part of the carpet on fire. Marbles being the awesome cat that is he is, woke me up by biting my face. Not just a playful bite this was a get up now biting. Well to make a long story short, if Marbles wouldn't have woke me up that night my ex and I may have never woke up. Now I am married to a non-drunk (lol) and Marbles is seven and is living his out life in a nice house ( cigarette free ) and has my husband, Me, another cat, 2 dogs, and 2 boys to call his family for the rest of his life. I <3 you Marbles you are the best kitty in the world!!!!!!
We had found a little stray cat one afternoon who had collapsed on my mothers deck from heat exhaustion. I gently gathered her up and brought her home to try and care for her. She perked up as soon as we got home out of the heat. 5 hours later she ended up having 4 kittens in my living room (much to my suprise!) 3 of which I lost right away, then Mama the next morning due to unknown complications. All I had left was a tiny half bald little kitten in some serious trouble. We immidiately made an emergency trip to the vet where I was given less than a 5% chance the kitten would survive. I was shown how to tube feed and support the tiny fragile little life. Tube feeding had to be the most heartbreaking thing I have ever done, sticking a tube down such a tiny babies throat and hearing the tiny screams, but I knew that was his only hope in surviving. He earned the nickname "Mommies Little Bean" due to his size and lack of hair lol. I did not sleep a wink that first night in fear of the little ones life, I was so terrified that he would pass away in the night. The next morning I was so relived to find that he had survived, much to everyones dibelief. I knew then my little "Bean" might just have a fighting chance. Each day he grew stronger and healthier and eventualy learned to suckle from a bottle, then started on wet kitten food. I am now a proud mama to say Beans is now 5 months old and doing exceptionally well (much to the vets shock!!) I am so thankful that Beans is such a special part of my life <3
I work on the service drive at a Nissan dealer and one day when I was walking into the shop, one of the technicians yelled, hey Rhonda, look! and there she was...this skinny, abadoned, little Pastel Calico, rubbing back and forth on his leg. So of course, right away, I had to go and pick her up, everyone at my work, knows, I love animals. I took her into the file room where my friend Annette does the warranty, she loves animals too, together, we are always rescuing some baby :0). We kept this young cat in the file room for a couple of days, nourishing her and trying to get someone to take her home, no one did. Me and my sons weren't ready for a cat, but this kitty was growing on me, she is beautiful and loving beyond measure... One day the cleaners had accidentally let her out, so when I came to work, I freaked! and was sad all day. Then right before leaving that day, a co-worker brought her to me and said he found her trying to drink coolant water! I grabbed her and called my sons, who knew of all of this and they said, mom, bring her home! So that's exactly what I did and we named her that night...Mila, we love her, will all our hearts, she is our friend, family and little lover :0)

The singers were good and I enjoyed when they covered the Frankie Valli songs. I could have done without the opening act for each set that started with a guy who did some juggling, told some old jokes, and did some ventriloquism. I could have also done without some of the non-Frankie songs. Also, the singers tried to engage the audience to sing and clap along, but considering the demographic, they just didn't seem to be that into it. Three sets of just Frankie songs would have been great.

Great performances. Loved how they transformed theater into a nightclub. These guys are very talented & definitely could replicate the classic songs! Worthwhile to see.

Nicaragua, Costa Rica's northern neighbor, is extremely close to Guanacaste. A beautiful country with a rich culture and full history, Nicaragua offers travelers a unique contrast to Costa Rica.
This journey begins early in the morning to avoid lines while crossing the border. Be advised, all tour participants need to have both their passport and cash on hand to cross the border. The crossing fee is $7. Once across, you'll enjoy a delicious breakfast near the city of Rivas. You'll continue on until you reach Granada, one of the first cities founded by Europeans in America. A colorful, vibrant place, Granada was built with Spanish colonial architecture that remains in place today. In Granada, a horse-drawn carriage will take you to the city's most notable attractions. You'll visit the main church – known simply as "Catedral" – and the Plaza de España, where you can take in magnificent views of Lake Nicaragua. Nearby, you'll have lunch at a nice restaurant with great views.
After lunch, you will board the bus and drive to a viewpoint of Lake Masaya. This exceptional location allows you to take in stunning views of both the lake and the active Masaya Volcano. The tour wraps up with a visit to Masaya, a local town with an excellent pottery and souvenir market.
Following this stop, you'll return to Costa Rica and will be dropped off at your hotel.
Passport, camera, sunscreen, hat, and cash (for border crossing).
Transportation, breakfast, lunch, and guide.
"Fabulous tour. Our guide Herman was the best! He made us feel like his personal guests. A few of us were not feeling 100 percent and he went out of his way to take care of us. Enjoyed our trip across the border and know that Herman and our driver Michael was very responsible for that success."
– May 2013
"Short, but packed with details. Definitely on the list for a longer visit."
– Apr 2013
"Guide and driver were fantastic. Wish we could have stopped at more places, but tour was 4:30am to midnight as it was, so that's really not possible. Great value for the money. Breakfast was wonderful, lunch had bugs."
– Mar 2013
"Our driver and guide were amazing. They made this trip into much more than sightseeing! It was also a great lesson on the history of Nicaragua."

A very nice hostel in an amazing location (the village and island are stunning). Good facilities, well furnished rooms and helpful staff. Very nice breakfast. Only issue for me was lack of a guest kitchen which would be useful given the limited food options in the village.

This hostel is great! The location is ideal for hiking, climbing and any other mountain activities. The hostel is very communal, with a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, good for solo travelers. But the greatest part is definitely the staff! A special thanks to Nate for making my stay so enjoyable.

Really nice place in the heart of Veli Losinj. Although i had difficulty finding the place, it is actually very easy. Find the flagpole in the centre, walk towards the pink church, take the stairs to the right. As easy as that. Very friendly and helpful staff. Old building but clean. Free wifi. Parking for motorcycle. Many restaurants and bars within walking distance. Common area ideal for meeting people. Will stay here again.

The staff is amazing, and Bárbara was great. Clean beds, but at night they like to turn the WiFi off for no reason and it's only assessable on the main floor. Quite hostel for sure, but busier in the summer months. Would recommend

Love You Long Time
They say hip-hop is a young man's game, and they're probably right. Apparently, though, even rappers well past their prime can still hang with the kids if they never grew up in the first place. For proof, just check out the Old School Summer Jam. This throwback party of mid-'80s hip-hop hooligans features 2 Live Crew, Magic Mike, and Gucci Crew, a trio of moderately talented rap outfits still hanging on by the virtue of their easy virtue. As long as their adolescent tendencies are still intact, these guys will take you all the way back to the eighth grade. As will Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock, whose "It Takes Two" you tried to do the Running Man to at every junior-high dance. Their stuff stands up better to the test of time. Hell, "I wanna rock right now!" Totally radical -- this is the stuff summers are made of.
The Old School Summer Jam features 2 Live Crew, Disco Rick and the Gucci Crew, Magic Mike, Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock, MC Shy D, and Planet Patrol and is hosted by Raj from What's Happening. The show starts at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 28, at the Coconut Grove Expo Center, 2700 S. Bayshore Dr., Miami. Tickets cost $35 in advance, $50 at the door. Call 954-523-3309.

Getting the Quotes
The Old Versus the New
Wrapping It Up
The first time I really got excited about software and computers was back in the fall of 1981. (I was 12.) My parents had brought me on vacation to Baltimore. Little geek that I was, I wanted to go to Maryland Science Center. Having just come from the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, with its Apollo capsule, I was pretty excited about space and technology.
As lame as this sounds, in their Moon and Space display area, they had an Atari Lunar Lander game. This game allows the player to land a lunar module onto the surface of the moon (somewhat intuitive from the name of the game, isn't it?). I thought it was the coolest thing ever. It even prompted me to want to write my own version on my then state-of-the-art home computer, the snazzy TI-99 4A. Alas, the TI-99 4A didn't have vector graphics, which made it hard to write a version of Lunar Lander in "Extended Basic" with "Sprites," but it was still pretty cool. After all, it's what got me started in this business anyway. A couple of years ago, I finally found an old Lunar Lander machine at John's Jukes in Vancouver, BC, and now have it in my own home. (For fun sometime, try bringing a video game across the US-Canadian border. Customs agents aren't too suspicious.)
What could this possibly have to do with the Internet? One of the newest features for Internet Explorer 5 is Vector Markup Language (VML)—a vector graphics package.
I'd like to go through a sample that's a bit complex, and uses a combination of XML data binding, VML, and some new document object model (DOM) Level 1 support to produce a stock graphing component.
Check out the sample.
Getting the Quotes
The underlying data is coming from an XML file with the following schema:
<day> <symbol>AADV</symbol> <quotedate>1/7/98</quotedate> <quotelow>82</quotelow> <quotehigh>85</quotehigh> <quoteclose>84</quoteclose> </day>
Instead of using the XML DOM to iterate through the data, I'm using Active Data Objects (ADO). In this case, ADO is providing an abstraction over the data so that no matter what data source object I use, my underlying code will always be the same. For example, if I were using the Tabular Data Control (TDC) or Remote Data Services (RDS), the methodology for iterating through the dataset and getting name/value pairs would be the same.
Here's the declaration of the XML data source:
<XML id="Stock" src="stockdata.xml"> </XML>
To then get an ADO recordset from this data, I do the following:
rs = Stock.recordset;
Many times in this sample, I iterate through all the records (each DAY is considered to be a record).
count = rs.recordcount; rs.moveFirst(); // get min/max for scaling calculation for (i=0; i<count; i++) { cMax = rs.fields("quotehigh").value; tMax = Math.max(cMax, tMax); cMin = rs.fields("quotelow").value; tMin = Math.min(cMin, tMin); rs.movenext(); }
The recordset has a notion of a "cursor" or a pointer to the current location in the recordset. The moveFirst() and movenext() methods are used to change the location of the cursor in the recordset. To get the values of a given record, the fields() method is used to get the field object. Important meta data about that field, as well as its current value is available at that point. For the example code above, I'm only interested in the value set for the field, so I'm only using the value property to get the at the data in the field.
Drawing the Graph
Here's an outline of the method used to draw the graph:
- Create a new <DIV> that will contain the new graph. This <DIV>, as well as all other HTML and VML elements that will be created, is done via the new createElement(), insertElement, and createTextNode() methods.
- Create an ADO recordset from the XML data.
- Create the title. This is a <SPAN> that's positioned within the parent <DIV>.
- Create the vertical scale. The money range for the stock over a given date range is calculated, and appropriate tick marks are created on the right side of the <DIV>. Each tic mark is a VML line. The labels representing the value at each tic are positioned spans that are created on the fly.
- For each day of data, draw the high/low bar. This is a VML line as well.
- While going through the high/low bar pass, create the horizontal tic marks with VML. Also, position the <SPAN> elements with the appropriate dates below those tics.
- For each day of data, create a "running close line" that draws a line from the close of one day to the close of the next. Each segment is an individual VML line.
Let's take a closer look at Step 1, how the containing <DIV> gets created.
pDiv = document.createElement("DIV"); pDiv.id = "Graph1"; pDiv.style.width = MaxWidth11; MarginLeft = MaxWidth * 0.05; pDiv.style.height = MaxHeight11; MarginTop = MaxHeight * 0.05; pDiv.style.border = "1px black solid"; pDiv.style.position = "absolute"; pDiv.style.top = 70; pDiv.style.left = 10; insertParent.insertBefore(pDiv, null);
The chain of events here is that the element is created, then properties are set, then the element is inserted into the document. The new element isn't in the main document until the insertBefore() call is made. As a side note, other elements can also be created and parented to an element not yet in the tree. For example, if I wanted to have the <DIV> contain an <IMG>, I could create it, and parent it to the new <DIV> before the <DIV> was inserted into the main document. This is especially helpful when creating new table rows, as you can create the row, and all the cells, before putting the new row into the document.
The Old Versus the New
With Internet Explorer 4.0, if you wanted to insert new elements into a document, you had to insert the HTML content and use the innerHTML property or insertAdjacentHTML() method.The way to write the above code for Internet Explorer 4.0 would be:
insertParent.insertAdjacentHTML("BeforeEnd", "<DIV id='Graph1' style=" ' width: " + MaxWidth11 + ";" + "height: " + MaxHeight11 + ";" + "margin-left: " + (MaxWidth * 0.05) + ";" + "margin-top: " + (MaxHeight * 0.05) + ";" + "border: 1px black solid; top: 70; left: 10; position: absolute ' ");
Some may argue that this code is more compact, but it certainly is less clear. It's also much slower.
The New Way
Another benefit of the new method of creating elements is that all elements can be created and inserted into the document in the same way. With the innerHTML and insertAdjacentHTML() methods, there were some types of elements that couldn't be inserted that way. For example, table rows and cells or elements in the head of the document couldn't be inserted via the old methods.
One method that is used frequently in the sample is createLineWithDOM(). Here's the code for that method:
function createLineWithDOM(p, color, width, fx, fy, tx, ty) { var l, d, i; l = document.createElement("v:line"); l.strokeweight = width+"pt"; l.strokecolor = color; l.from = fx + "px, " + fy + "px"; l.to = tx + "px, " + ty + "px"; p.insertBefore(l, null); }
Note how the basic outline of this method is the same—element is created, its properties are set, and then it gets inserted into the document. VML shapes or HTML elements, they all get created and inserted the same way.
Wrapping It Up
The goal for this sample is to show how rich, interactive, data-driven pages can be created. Bringing the sort of interactive applications that developers have been writing with Visual Basic® and C++ to the Web is now very possible. Remember, it's not just HTML, its Dynamic HTML.

ICE Agents in Phoenix Seize More Than $8K Worth of Bogus NFL Jerseys and Ed Hardy Shirts as Part of "Operation Holiday Hoax"
Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Phoenix and Tucson rounded up nearly $800,000 worth of bootleg clothing last week, including more than $8,000 worth of phony football jerseys, as part of a national campaign called "Operation Holiday Hoax."
Two weeks before Christmas? Talk about bah, humbug.
"Operation 'Holiday Hoax' struck the counterfeiters and counterfeit vendors just when their inventories were at their peak. This is the season these criminals lure in unwitting holiday shoppers and sell them substandard and sometimes dangerous goods," John Morton, Department of Homeland Security assistant secretary for ICE, says in a press release.
Chances are the world wouldn't come to an end if a few kids were running around in "substandard" Larry Fitzgerald jerseys, but rules are rules for the folks at ICE.

ICE's hunt for the phony gear took them to three swap meets in both Phoenix and Tucson, where they uncovered close to $800,000 worth of counterfeit crap.
Across the country, ICE picked off more than $26 million in bogus goods before they made it to the hands of consumers.
ICE agents found a wide variety of fake stuff, including things like shoes, purses, and Ed Hardy clothing, which raises the question: Which is more lame? Being stupid enough to spend over $100 on an Ed Hardy tee shirt, or being tacky enough to wear a fake one? The answer is neither.
Ed Hardy shirts -- real or fake -- are lame.

Written on: 20/12/2013
I ordered 3 items in plenty of time for Christmas, but there was no clear information on delivery times in the confirmation email or on the website. I then received an email 2 weeks later saying that the order had been dispatched and will be delivered 1 - 2 working days later but due to this being over a weekend and very close to Christmas, I will not be able to give them as presents as I wanted to because they won't arrive in time. This service is not informative enough, there needs to be clearer information available and quicker delivery. I appreciate that this is a busy time of year but I ordered from 4 other companies on the same day and they all arrived within 3 days. I will not be using Forbidden Planet again, or recommending it to anyone. The store itself is fantastic but the online service is appalling.

Rick Perry, Texas Governor and GOP Presidential Possible, Shakes the Newport Beach Money Tree
Will he or won't he?
It's the question close watchers of the Republican Party's presidential prospects want Texas Gov. Rick Perry to answer.
Before he can, however, Perry has to come to Newport Beach today to ask the moneymen a question of his own:
Should I?

Like, if the Big Wallets on Orange County's Gold Coast are already committed to, say, Mitt Romney, what's the point?
Proving that not all campaign cash comes from one Southern California basket, Perry is scheduled first to meet with Rolex- and diamond-bracelet shakers in Beverly Hills.
After the private meeting somewhere in Newport Beach, Perry heads up the middle of the state (which should remind him of the nicer parts of Texas) to Sacramento.
Fueling much of that will-he-or-won't-he talk: Today marks Perry's second visit to the Golden State in two weeks.
Hell, Schwarzenegger didn't even spend that much time here.
A Perry spokesman denied to the Associated Press that the governor is here on behalf of a 2012 presidential run, maintaining that the visit is associated with official Texas business. But it sounds like Shawn Steel, a Republican National Committee member and Palos Verdes attorney, would have liked to have measured the spokesman's nose while the denials were aired.
"I sense that he is beyond considering running for president. He is now planning to run for president," Steel is reported to have said, adding the Texas governor's California swing "has everything to do with 2012."
Steel will get to ask the man of the hour himself, as he plans to attend the Newport Beach gathering.
By the way, announced GOP candidates Romney, Tim Pawlenty, Newt Gingrich and Jon Huntsman have already come to Orange County for their own private meet-and-greets--presumably with hats in glad hands.

Dating Games: A Novelby RM Johnson

At age thirty-three, Livvy Rodgers is fed up with relying on men and working her dead-end job, so she decides to apply for a scholarship to become a registered nurse. In order to afford school, she needs to move to/b>/i>/i>
RM Johnson, author of the #1 Essence bestseller The Harris Family, returns with a riveting story of love, family, and revenge.
At age thirty-three, Livvy Rodgers is fed up with relying on men and working her dead-end job, so she decides to apply for a scholarship to become a registered nurse. In order to afford school, she needs to move to a smaller apartment -- leaving no room for her twin daughters, seventeen-year-old Hennesey and Alizé.
Though both gorgeous, the two sisters couldn't be more different. Hennesey, a brilliant straight-A student, is soon off to college on a full scholarship. She's in a strong relationship with Rafe, a recently released convict unjustly jailed for drug possession after taking the rap for his old friend, Smoke, who has since become the most ruthless drug dealer in Chicago. Now a free man, Rafe wants nothing to do with his old friends and street life -- especially when he falls for Hennesey.
On the other hand, Alizé, who is perfectly comfortable relying on her undeniable sex appeal, is a hell-raiser. Once Livvy makes her announcement, Alizé is in desperate need of some money. She and her girlfriends come up with an outrageous plan to score some fast cash -- persuading the men with fat pockets they meet at clubs to take the girls to a hotel, and then drugging them and making off with their wallets and jewelry. In a weird twist of fate, one of their first victims is none other than Smoke, Rafe's old buddy from the street. Once robbed, he's bent on revenge -- and the violent chain of events that follow will change the women of the Rodgers family forever.
Emotionally charged and filled with unforgettable characters, Dating Games is an intense and thought-provoking page-turner, exactly what readers have come to rely on from RM Johnson.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
Lying on her back, still feeling the sensation of her boyfriend between her legs even after he had risen from her, Livvy knew she would become pregnant. She felt the warm fluid swim through her, making her certain of this. Her mother would kill her for wanting to have this child at sixteen years old. She'd do it anyway, that also she was sure of.
She waited four months to tell her boyfriend, Avery, for fear that he would run away. But the wait didn't matter, because he had disappeared only days after the news was given to him.
She finally called his house, then went over there, camping in front of his doorstep, wearing her big T-shirt, her belly big and round in front of her. His mother gave her no information, acting as if she had never met, or given birth, for that matter, to her son, Avery.
"Don't know where he is, and don't know when he's coming back," she said, slamming the door in Livvy's face.
Livvy walked home slowly, her head hung low, only to get harassed by her mother the moment she walked through the door of their apartment.
Livvy remembered their last argument in the kitchen. The place was a mess, as it had always been, and her mother had just walked in from her second job. Exhausted, she fell into one of the kitchen chairs, her hair wild about her head, her cheap clothes smelling like smoke from the lounge she worked at in the evenings. She had the strength to toe off only one of her high-heeled shoes, leaving the other one on. She blew out an exasperated sigh.
Livvy had walked out of her bedroom in a T-shirt and panties. She had not heard her mother come in, and when she caught sight of her, Livvy quickly turned around, hoping to disappear back into her room.
"Hold it."
Livvy froze.
"Why ain't this kitchen clean?"
"I was sick, Mama."
"What's wrong with you?"
"My stomach," Livvy said, a sour look on her face. She placed a hand on top of the curve of her belly.
"Livvy -- "
"Mama, I ain't getting rid of it." Livvy knew what her mother was going to say, because she said it every night.
"Child, you see this place?"
Livvy looked at her uncertainly, not knowing where the question came from and what kind of answer was expected of her.
"You hear me?"
"It's a dump. Everything is falling apart. Ain't got living room furniture. Got to sit on folding chairs, because we can't afford nothin' else. Don't matter how many times we call the exterminator, don't matter how many bottles of Raid we spray, the roaches don't go away, and the damn rats think they got as much right to this place as we do." She paused, a look of disgust on her face, and glanced over the room.
"You like living like this, Livvy?"
Livvy tried holding her mother's stare but had to look away.
"Mama, I'm used to it."
"That's not what I asked you, child."
"It's our home, Mama." Livvy looked up at her mother, wanting to cry, feeling sorry and embarrassed for her.
"'It's our home' don't make it reason enough for us to have to live in this shit. This just how you gonna be living when you get my age. Is that what you want?"
Livvy didn't answer, knowing her mother's tactics for trying to get her to kill her unborn child.
"And you want your child living like this? You gonna have enough to worry about with diaper rash, and teething, and nonsense like that. You want to have to worry about looking down into your baby's crib and finding a rat sniffing around her? Constantly have to watch her while she's crawling on the floor, so she don't put lead paint chips or dead roaches in her mouth? Do you want that?"
"No," Livvy said, anger and frustration creeping into her voice.
"Then let me take you to the clinic. I'll be there with you, holding your hand all the way, baby. I'll be in the room with you."
Livvy let her mind wander down the street, into that room. She saw her legs hoisted up into those stirrups, heard the buzz of that blade, the suck of that vacuum, could almost feel her insides being yanked out of her.
"No!" she screamed, and turned, stumbling back on weary legs toward her room. But her mother was quickly up and out of that chair, had chased her down, one high-heeled shoe and all, and had spun Livvy around.
"Then what you gonna do, Livvy? You're sixteen years old, ain't finish high school. Ain't got no job, ain't got no skills to get a decent job, and you want to have a baby. How you gonna care for it?"
"We'll handle it."
"We? We!" Livvy's mother shouted. "Ain't nobody around here but you. Ain't nobody carrying that baby but you. Who the hell is we?"
"Me and Avery," Livvy whispered under her breath.
Livvy's mother sadly shook her head. "That boy is gone, and he ain't never coming back, child. You got to know that."
"He left, but once -- "
" -- once you have the baby, he gonna come back?" Livvy's mother finished for her. "No. He ain't. I thought the same thing when I had you, but don't no sixteen-year-old boy want to raise no child. He a child himself. But the difference between boys and you girls is that they smart enough to know they still children and got no business trying to raise one themself. Livvy..."
"I ain't killing my baby," Livvy protested, a tear slipping over the rim of her eyelid.
"Livvy, Baby -- ,"
"I ain't killing my child!"
"You gonna regret this your whole life."
"Like you regret having me?"
"No, no, Livvy," her mother said, stepping near to her, placing her arms around her, consoling her daughter. "You the best thing that ever happened to me. But why you gotta go and do it just because I did?"
Livvy stared into her mother's eyes, took a moment, then spoke. "Because I want somebody who really loves me."
"Livvy, I love you. You know that." Her mother tightened her arms around her child, but Livvy squirmed out of the embrace.
"You never here. You always at work, leaving me here by myself."
"Because I gotta take care of you. Pay rent, put food on the table."
"And what about Daddy? He didn't even stay around to raise me. Don't nobody love me. But my baby will when I have it. Even if Avery don't realize what a beautiful baby we made together, it won't matter, because my baby'll still love me." Livvy kept her eyes on her mother for a moment longer, then turned, and started back to her room.
"I'm having it, Mama."
"Livvy!" her mother called again.
"Ain't nothing more you can say. I said, I'm having it."
"Then you ain't having it here." Her mother's voice was low, but Livvy heard the words. She stopped dead, but did not turn and look around.
"That's right," Livvy's mother said. She sounded unsure, as if she questioned each word she said, but had to stay strong because of what she believed best for her child. "You heard me. You think you grown enough to bring a life into this world, then you grown enough to care for it yourself. I did what I was supposed to do. I had you when I was sixteen and would've cared for you until you was old enough to do it for yourself, but obviously that time is now. I ain't spending no more of my life raising somebody else child, even if it is yours. So I guess you got one more decision to make."
Livvy waited for a moment, making sure her mother was done saying what she had to say, then took the last few steps into her bedroom and closed the door behind her. There was no decision to make, Livvy thought, because it was made the night she got pregnant. She was having her baby.
Seventeen years later, Livvy Rodgers was thirty-three, working in a hospital as a nurse's assistant. She was proud of what she did, of what she accomplished, in light of the decisions she had made over the course her life. Yes, she could've done more, should've gotten further, but she took what she did very seriously.
The hospital uniform she wore was always spotless, brilliantly white, and sharply creased in all the appropriate places. Her curly, almost shoulder-length black hair was always pinned up in a bun, making her look very neat and professional. She kept herself in fairly good shape, although she could not seem to drop the fifteen pounds she had put on during her pregnancy. It had all gone to her hips and behind, making it necessary for everything she wore, including her uniforms, to be taken in at the waist in order for them to fit properly.
That evening, Livvy had been taking care of a new patient, a beautiful, fair-complexioned girl, with curly light brown hair, pulled back in a ponytail, and held with a single rubber band. She was the reason Livvy was having thoughts about her own childhood, about when she was pregnant.
Livvy assumed the girl couldn't have been any older than she was when she had given birth. If anything, she was probably a year or two younger.
The girl's belly was large and round under the blankets, for she was past due. She placed her hands over her stomach, shamefully trying to hide her unborn child from the nurses' assistant who was staring sympathetically down at her.
"You gonna have a baby," Livvy said, trying to smile in spite of the situation, sensing the girl's discomfort.
The girl smiled, slowly moving her hands. "Yeah. A baby girl."
"How old are you?"
The smile disappeared from Livvy's face.
Livvy was in labor and screaming, clawing at the dashboard, feeling that something was clawing as ferociously at her insides to get out.
"Are we fucking there yet!" Livvy yelled out to her friend. Sharika drove the '73 Datsun B-210 as fast as the little engine would allow.
"We a block away, girl, just hold on. Don't be spillin' your insides all over my seats. Hold on!"
Not ten minutes later, Livvy was on her back in the delivery room of the Cook County Hospital, the free hospital. She was screaming and crying now, hot tears streaming down the sides of her face, and all the while she was trying to keep her eyes closed, trying to block out that damn bright-ass fluorescent light that burned her retinas like the sun. She had never felt pain like this before. Not even the first time she had sex.
Livvy screamed again, wanting to push, get this over with.
"Don't push. Don't push!" Livvy heard a voice coming from somewhere behind the sheet that hid her lower half.
"Fuck you!" Livvy spat and instead of pushing, squeezed the hell out of Sharika's hand. Her childhood friend was there by her side, dressed in blue hospital scrubs, mask and hat, like she was the other parent -- the two of them a cute little lesbian couple.
"You feel any pain, you just squeeze my hand, all right, girl," Sharika had told her before the pain really started. Livvy squeezed all right, and she hoped she broke some bones so Sharika could feel pain close to what Livvy was feeling.
"All right, push. Push!" the doctor told her, and Livvy gave everything she had. The agony intensified, enveloping her entire body, but she continued, hoping it would stop, needing it to, because she felt she would surely die trying to give birth to her child if it didn't. Then just before she thought she would black out, the child passed out of her.
"Awww. Look what we have here," Livvy heard voices behind the sheet saying. She felt Sharika try to let go of her hand to see what was going on, but Livvy wouldn't let her go.
"What? What?" Livvy said, trying to raise her head, see over the sheet. She heard a smack, heard the baby start crying, and then almost simultaneously felt another pain.
"Hold it," the doctor commanded. "Hold it!" and Livvy knew something was wrong. Her baby was going to die. That's why it was crying. She just knew it.
She felt more pain, something else trying to push out of her, but she couldn't pay it any mind, because she was so worried about whether her baby would live or die.
"Surprise, surprise!" Livvy heard the doctor say through all her panicking and pain.
"What?" Livvy said, tears rolling over her cheeks. "Is my baby all right? Tell me!"
"I think we have a two-for-one."
Livvy turned to Sharika, still squeezing her hand. "What's wrong? What is he talking about?"
"Livvy, I want you to push again," the doctor told her.
"Why! What for?!" She felt another jolt of pain shoot through her belly.
Sharika pulled her mask down under her chin. "Because you're having twins," she smiled. "Now push!"
Five days later, Livvy lay in bed with her two little girls. Sharika's mother said she could stay at her house in the basement for a couple of weeks, till she found a job and a place of her own. Livvy thought of calling her mother, but the thought quickly passed. Her mother didn't want anything to do with her or her babies, so Livvy wouldn't force them on her. She thought of calling Avery, but had no clue of where to start. She called his mother to let her know the good news. His mother said nothing more than, "That's nice. But I still don't know where he is."
As Livvy lay there, her daughters in her arms, she realized that none of that made any difference. It didn't matter that no one cared about her anymore, because she would receive all the love she needed from her baby girls, Hennesey, and Alizé.

This was my first book that I have read by R.M. Johnson and I really liked it! It was great I didn't lose interest for a second, I finished it in two days. Run out and get it!
This is my first time reading a book by this author and it was a really good book. It did have its slow moments but overall it was a good book. I dont care for the ending but I would recommend.
Bravo! Another great book by RM Johnson! This was the 2nd book I have read by Mr Johnson and I really enjoyed it. The events in this book seemed so real! Once I got to the middle of the book, I couldn't put it down. I loved every page and I can't wait to read my 3rd book by Mr Johnson.
Hennesey is straight ¿A¿ student. Hennesey has a twin sister named Alize. Hennesey always says, ¿If my sister is my twin, then why are we so different?¿. While Hennesey is on her way to college on a full scholarship, her sister, Alize, relies on her looks and sex appeals to get what she wants. Livvy, Hennesey and Alize¿s mother, becomes pregnant and she doesn¿t know whether to keep the baby or not and her boyfriend, Avery, finds out after four months of the pregnancy and leaves her high and dry, with no help and no money for her baby. Soon she realizes that she doesn¿t need a man to keep her happy. Livvy, Hennesey, and Alize soon have to move out of their apartment to get a smaller place to save up their money so they can live like a normal family and not have to have Alize persuade men with lots of money to go to hotels with her. Once she¿s there, she drugs them and takes their money and jewelry. The genre of this book is fiction. It has lots of drama and suspense. It keeps you flipping through the pages wondering what¿s going to happen next. Every time I¿m ready to put down the book I can¿t. All the drama that happens in the book is very much relates to the drama in real life and what goes on in people¿s lives for example, drugs, alcohol and even prostitution. Alize and Hennesey are the most different set of twin any one has ever seen the might look a lot alike but they are completely different in every thing that they do. They never decide on anything together, but to some people that¿s the beauty of having a sister so they can fight all the time but, there are some times that sister can be the best of friend. When I read this book, it makes me think how lucky I am that I have a house that I can stay in and have enough food to last a few months and even extra money to spend on myself. Alize is described as a loose girl in the book and her sister, Hennesey, is described as a properly brought up child that has everything she ever wanted, scholarships to the best schools around the world. I would¿ve never have thought that Alize would have to almost prostitute her body to make a few bucks for her family.
I first read this book in 8th grade, it was wonderful then and wonderful now that Im in 12th grade. Its all about the underdog and you find yourself rooting for certain people who do not disappoint! This is an excellent read that will leave you on the edge wanting more. 5 stars !!!
This book was pretty good. It was a little slow at times, but it was good enough to keep you wanting to turn the pages to see what was going to happen next.
overall the book was good at times it got slow but at the same time makes you want to know whats going to happen next the ending still leaves you guessing whats going to happen i know you have to save for the nexted book but ending stories liike that make you not want to even bother with the author anymore but I'll say again it was a good book i enjoyed reading it but i was pissed when i got he end
This is the first book I have read by RM Johnson and it is awesome. It is a page turner with lots of twists and turns. I highly recommend this book.
This was one of the best books I have read all year. I had a hard time putting it down. I recommend this book to everyone.
THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD. i FINISHED IT IN ONE DAY I COULDNT PUT IT DOWN. WHEN I WAS DONE READING IT I WAS LEFT WANTING MORE, A SEQUAL OR SOMETHING. I SUGGEST THIS BOOK TO ANYONE WHO WANTS A ENTERTAING READ.
This was a great book. I couldnt put it down. My eyes were glued to the pages. I flew through the chapters and before I knew it, there were no more chapters. This books has it all: sex, love, scandal, abuse, and drugs. The book was simply mindblowing. In this book, Livvy has twin girls that are totally different. Hennesey is a very smart, caring, and loving daughter and the sister that is destined for medical school. On the other hand, Alize uses her physical beauty to get what she wants. All of their lives, Alize has always taken everything from Hennesey....all the way down to her men. However, one day Hennesey meets Rafe who has just gotten out of prison after three years. Alize attempts to steal Rafe, but is quickly shut down. Rafe likes Hennesey and no matter how much Alize looks like Hennesey, to Rafe she's just not her. Livvy decides that she has given her girls all that she can and now it is time for her to do some things for herself. When Livvy informs Alize and Hennesey that they need to find a place to stay by the end of the summer, Alize panics. She and her friends concoct a plan to drug men and steal their money and jewelry. When Alize and her friends rob Smoke, a cold blooded drug lord and killer (who also happens to be the same guy that Rafe was protecting when he went to prison), the stories takes a wild turn and youll never guess what happens next. This book takes you on a ride you will never forget. For those of you that like to foreshadow and like a challenge, this is definately the book for you!!!
The story was a blast and i couldn't put it down after i started. The first RM Jonson novel i ever read and now im hooked. Henny and Ally were totally different but i loved how in the end they stayed tight.Dating Games can be looked at through many different point of views.Anyone who reads it will find it interesting :)
Dis' book waz really good. Their waz a lot of interesting stuff that happened in the book. Dis' is definetly a good book I wud love to read ova and ova again.
i really liked this book. i didn't really read all that much before but ever since i picked up this book i couldn't put it down.this book has alot of excitment in it i really makes you want to trun the pages. this book is things that could go on in real life. this book about twins that live in the ghetto. the older twin is suppose to set an example but ends up getting them into trouble. i like this book well really love and recommand it to everyone.
Alize was a handful and caused drama for her sister. I was glad she made in the end but wished more info could have been revealed on her mom such as her career or schooling for the future. Alize was so disrespectful especially when she slept w/her Mom's boyfriend to prove a point to herself.
This story started out slow but turned out to be very good. I almost cried when I got to the end of the book. And that daughter Alize was too much for me. She would have gotten slapped ten times over. Im glad that Hennesey chose to give Rafe a chance regardless of his past. The end end was sort of like 'yeah right' but it is a fiction book and anything can happen!
i thought this book was amazing, my friend lent it to me one day saying that it was so good, at first i was a little skeptical,but after the first page i couldn't put it down, i was reading during lunch, before and after school, after practice, every time i could even read a sentence i tried. i just couldn't get enough of that book, i thought that it was truly amazing and suspensful, i think any and all who read it will love it.

Patriot Day
Tuesday September 11, 2001 is a day that we shall never forget (click here for a time line of events). Think back....where were you and what were you doing at 0845 EDT on that day? On a call? finishing line up at the station? PT? taking your kids to school? at the gym? Just like our FDNY brothers and sisters. Just another normal day that was about to become anything but normal. 15 years ago....
Local 1014 Members were either at home with their families or serving Los Angeles County citizens when terror struck our hearts and the hearts and souls of all Americans.
The world watched in horror while the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in D.C, and a field in Shanksville Pennsylvania became the vision of terror on and in our homeland.
On that morning Americans stood strong and fought with incredible courage and wrapped in red white and blue, we all rose to the high standards that America was built on.
Firefighters and Paramedics who responded to the Pentagon, Shanksville PA, and the World Trade Center, which took 343 (click here for information) of our bravest, became Americas' symbol of hope and honor and resilience during this time of tragedy.
We all take time today to stay true to our commitment... "We Shall Never Forget". As you move through your day, take time to remember and honor all those who served and gave all including our great Military Personnel in addition to our Firefighters.
Local 1014 Members and all of the people who make up the Los Angeles County Fire Department are the proudest and most honorably serving members in the Country and it is with great pride that we stand together to honor our Country and all who serve. May God bless us all and our Country.
Your Local 1014 Executive Board
TODAY is Labor Day!
A day that became a Federal Holiday in 1894. Labor Day is a day that celebrates the economic and social contributions of workers. Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers. It also symbolizes the end of summer for many Americans, and is celebrated with parties, parades and athletic events.
In today's environment we have seen attacks on organized labor from every side. We have seen attacks to take away the very things that strong leaders many years before us fought hard for. Those leaders gave up other items to make sure their future, our future, and those after us, would always be secure. Take a moment today to remember what those labor leaders did for us and be thankful those folks worked so hard to lay the foundation for what we have.
This holiday marks the "end of summer" for most people. The last time to enjoy the sun, the beach, river or a backyard. It is the time to spend time with family and friends one last "summer day". Your 1014 Board of Directors wishes each and every member of our Local and the Los Angeles County Fire Department a happy and safe Labor Day.
As usual we also want to take this time to remind you to be careful, make good choices. Don't make a decision that will change your life or others forever. If you decide to drink PLEASE be responsible. Arrange for a room, call for a taxi or have a pre-assigned designated driver. Again PLEASE DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE!
Enjoy your holiday from all of us.
Your 1014 executive board
Please keep our brothers and their familes in your thoughts and prayers.

at this point in my life I feel the need to completely update my bio, because why the hell not.
Hi, I'm Endles, a 20-year-old English major (it's not my native tongue, though) whose dream is to become a teacher. I'm sometimes really quiet and reserved, but mostly I'm an annoying bad-mouthed girl, with too many ideas and too little time. I love religion, animation in all forms and classic rock. I hate ignorance, moths and putting labels on things.
When it comes to writing, my main inspirations are Ernest Hemmingway, Diana Wynne Jones and my closest friends. I love stream of consciousness, symbolism, hurt/comfort and stories about family, friends and the pain of growing up. It should come through quite well in my stories, but well… there's always room for improvement.
I'm a huge multi-shipper (although in my own writing I mainly tend to stick with Red/Green from pokémon... what can I say, I like them). Instead of rooting for my favorite ship, I like to explore all the possibilities. Because of this I get irritated when someone tries to claim their ship as the "best" or as "canon" when it's not. Ship and let ship, jeez.
I love good feedback as much as the next person, so I'm offering my services here! If you have a fic with no reviews PM me and I'll try and take a look!
