Employment of veterans, 2010
November 10, 2011
In 2010, 69.1 percent of all employed veterans aged 18 and over worked in private nonagricultural industries and 21.9 percent worked in federal, state and local government. Another 8.2 percent of veterans were self-employed.
Within private nonagricultural industries, 12.9 percent of veterans worked in manufacturing, followed by 10.0 percent in professional and business services, 8.3 percent in education and health services, and 8.0 percent in retail trade.
Among male veterans, 69.4 percent were employed in private nonagricultural industries and 21.1 percent were employed in government. This compares with 66.1 and 29.6 percent for female veterans, respectively.
Among male nonveterans, 79.0 percent were employed in private nonagricultural industries and 11.3 percent were employed in government. For female nonveterans, the figures were 75.7 and 18.2 percent, respectively.
These data are from the Current Population Survey (CPS). For more information, see "Employment Situation of Veterans — 2010" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-11-0306. In the CPS, veterans are defined as men and women who have previously served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and who were civilians at the time they were surveyed. Data about veterans are collected monthly in the CPS; those monthly data are the source of the 2010 annual averages presented here.

Commuters Could Claim Up To 70% Of December Rail Costs For Delays
Long-suffering commuters could have reclaimed as much as 70% of monthly fares on some routes into London last month according to research for money saving website MyMoneyDiva.com, and will still be able to claim most of this money if they act now.
A further £257.75 can be claimed for commuter delays on the Hastings service in the first 12 days of January, with commuters from Brighton entitled to as much as £104.02 for the same period. Far more than offsetting the average 4.1% rise in ticket prices, it would give them a significant proportion of their travel costs back.
The best news is that because you can make claims up to 28 days after the delay, the lion's share of this money is still available to commuters who put in their claims now.
Alison Steed, founder of MyMoneyDiva.com, said: "It is time for commuters to fight back, and MyMoneyDiva is encouraging people to claim what is due to them – you can do this for up to 28 days after the delays occurred. So it is still possible to claim for the Christmas and New Year storms.
"It is disgusting that commuters are consistently suffering at the hands of the rail firms, yet to add insult to injury the compensation payments are stacked in favour of the train operators. With winter still in full swing, the delays are not likely to improve any time soon."
Compensation for delays is now paid under the Delay Repay system for most train operators, which was implemented by the Department for Transport in April last year. Most operators have signed up to the scheme, and it means passengers are now paid compensation for any delay of more than 30 minutes, which qualifies the ticket holder to 50% of their single ticket cost to be refunded, while those delayed over an hour will receive a 100% refund. Season ticket holders receive a proportional refund based on the daily cost of an annual ticket and although refunds are made in National Rail vouchers, they are usually valid for one year and are transferrable.
Although this is more generous than the previous system, it still lags well behind the high-speed compensation paid to the train operators by Network Rail. For delays on short journeys, the train operators are paid compensation after five minutes, and after 10 minutes for longer journeys. The bitter irony is that Network Rail is taxpayer-funded, so in effect rail users are paying the rail firms twice – first from their fares, and then a handsome sum on top through their taxes for late-running trains.
MyMoneyDiva asked DelayRepaySniper to look at six key commuter routes into the capital and what could have been claimed both by commuters and someone unlucky enough to suffer each of the worst delays throughout December.
We found that anyone travelling on each of the worst performing services each day in December would have actually been paid to travel on Virgin Trains from Coventry to London and on South Eastern Trains from Ashford to London throughout the month.
The total allowable reclaims would have been a massive £807.19 from Virgin Trains, which is a sizeable £284.89 more than the cost of monthly travel on this route. Virgin Trains has confirmed that, although theoretical, it would be possible for it to end up paying people to travel on its services under the new Delay Repay scheme.
For South Eastern, a traveller could have theoretically reclaimed £531.65 for suffering all of the worst-performing services between Ashford and London, which would have meant a reclaim of £54.25 more than the cost of your monthly ticket.
To help with the process, MyMoneyDiva has joined forces with DelayRepaySniper to offer an easier way to get your hands on the money that you are due.
Steed added: "You can make a Delay Repay claim directly with your train operator if you wish for free, and they should have the forms available on the trains or at the station. You should also be able to deal with most firms online to claim too if you wish. But this can be laborious.
"So we are working with DelayRepaySniper which will not only tell you by email when you can make a Delay Repay reclaim3, it can also help to make the claim for you if you wish. The full reclaim service costs just £11.99 a month, but anyone signing up through our website will get their first six months for just £10 a month. The best news is that if you do not make a claim for a month, that fee will be refunded even after the offer period ends. So commuters really can only gain from this."
The typical claim seen prior to December was £70 per month, still a significant proportion of a commuter's monthly ticket price, but according to the calculations done for MyMoneyDiva, the maximum claims that could have been made last month would have been significantly higher than that.
Steed added: "Even the lowest amount that could have been claimed according to the commuter claim calculations was still a substantial £194.02 – equivalent to 43% of the monthly ticket price – for those travelling in from Colchester to Liverpool Street.
"The good news is that you can still make a claim up to 28 days after the delay, so anyone affected by poor rail services over the Christmas and New Year can still get the compensation they are due.
"It is time for commuters to fight back, stop accepting poor services, and get the money they are due"

Notes to editors:
1. Commuter trains were considered to be those running between 6am and 9am and 5pm and 8pm. Weekends and December 25 and 26 were excluded from the calculations.
2. The calculations are based on standard price fares from Ashford International.
3. DelayRepaySniper will only email the affected journeys that you could actually make a claim for. This excludes non-claimable journeys, such as those where there was another service running that would have been able to get you to your destination on time, which can negate a Delay Repay claim.

The one style we constantly try to emulate but is difficult without a little seawater and sea breeze also happens to be one of Jennifer Aniston's signatures, beach hair. With the right styling products and tools, this vacation inspired hair trend isn't so complicated. One of Hollywood's leading hairstylists, Serge Normant, has broken the process down into five easy steps to achieve celebrity worthy beachiness…
Step 1. Pre air dry your hair in order to keep as much of your natural wave as possible.
Step 2. Apply Serge Normant's Spray Meta Lush Volumizer from root to tips to give flexibility and elasticity for the stye you're about to create.
Step 3. Create a middle part and smooth out the top layer to reduce unnecessary frizz.
Step 4. Use a little Serge Normant Meta Form Sculpting Pomade to give hair some texture before using a one inch curling iron or smaller to create your curls. Beachy curls aren't perfect so in order to have an 'undone' curl, I always recommend to leave the ends straight to give a more natural touch. In other words, don't wrap the entire strand around the barrel, but leave a 1-2 inch 'tail' hanging.
5. Flip your head over and scrunch up with your hands to loosen a little bit more. Then finally top it off with a little Serge Normant Meta Sheer Dry Oil Finishing Spray.
If you don't have a St Barth's or Miami trip planned anytime soon there's no need to worry, brush on your favorite bronzer and coral lipstick and rock your beach hair like a jetsetter!

Before you break out your bikinis and sarongs, make sure you stock up on SPF. We're fans of this award-winning brand's lightweight lotion, which meets all international standards for sun safety. Great for face and body alike, it provides broad-spectrum protection and lasts for up to 80 minutes in water. It's so safe that even infants can wear it, and the 1.6 oz. tube is perfectly sized for your beach tote or carry-on.
I am completely obsessed with all things sunscreen. I am the person that wears Coppertone in December because I love the smell. Unfortunately, I have awful skin so I need to be a little bit more careful these days. I absolutely love Supergoop. It isn't heavy, has no parabens and no fragrance. While I still love the smell of Coppertone, I think Supergoop is going to be my go-to.5
I used the sample from Birchbox every day at the beach last week on my face only. Usually, sunscreens clog my pores or make my face burn or tingle. Not this stuff! Goes on smooth, no noxious smells, and doesn't irritate my skin. I will definitely be getting the full size product.5

This product has changed it's formula from what it was, so if you think you're ordering the same formulation you have in the past beware. It appears they have changed this formulation and created another product called Nu-Hair with the same ingredients previously called "Advanced Women's Formula"
good product
Posted by Reviewer2201276 on Dec 11, 2007
I have been using this product for two months and have been taking two a day for the most part. I have noticed significantly less shedding after taking it for a month and haven't really noticed any new hair growth yet, but I am taking one a day instead of two a couple times a week, which could be slowing the growth.

To the Editor: The study by Dr Harbarth and colleagues1 and the accompanying editorial by Drs Diekema and Climo2 conclude that selective and incomplete expansion of MRSA screening may not prevent MRSA hospital-acquired infections. There are several issues that we believe require clarification.
First, the term "universal screening" for MRSA is misused and misleading. In this quasi-experimental study, 2 surgical subspecialty patient groups were screened for MRSA sequentially, not simultaneously. This is not universal screening of all hospital patients or even all surgical patients. A recent observational study using true universal MRSA screening (all patients on admission) found significantly reduced rates of MRSA hospital-acquired infections.3

The next miserable snowstorm may be barreling toward Philadelphia, but on Saturday, a mellow crowd in complete denial channeled spring on opening day of the 2014 Philadelphia Flower Show.
The show runs through March 9 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Spring begins 11 days later.
Attendance was down in 2013, and the show lost money. Pennsylvania Horticultural Society President Drew Becher blamed local forecasters for scaring people away with a "drumbeat" of snowstorm predictions that never materialized.
This year, Becher said, ticket sales were running 30 percent above last year. But it looks like a forecast of heavy snow starting Sunday night may come to pass. PHS said that the show would be open Monday regardless and that reduced ticket prices would be announced on its website, theflowershow.com.

Aren't you getting tired of that smell?
First you step in it when you suggest that the jobless are unemployed because they can't pass a drug test.
And now, you're talking about Latinos as if they're as elusive as the chupacabra. (It's like a Latino Jersey Devil.)
In case you missed it, Corbett stepped in it - again - Friday during a roundtable discussion at the Union League hosted by the Hispanic newspaper Al Dia. (Apparently the big guy didn't get the memo about knowing your audience.)
The exchange went like this:
Moderator: Do you have staff members that are Latino?

So, Troubled Production means many bumps were hit, but nothing as bad as Development Hell? If so, Sonic X-treme would more likely fit in development hell, as people were literally working for weeks on end. I won't move the trope myself, but if anyone feels like doing so, be my guest. Edit: unless troubled production means more along the lines of programming, in which development hell would be unrelated.

Nah, it's for production in general. Development Hell is more for delays, though.

Press Release:
Celebrity appearances, artist meet-and-greets, a film festival, a Cosplay costume contest, the first official after party and Cosplay Harbor Cruise are among many activities lined up for this year's Boston Comic Con. Boston Comic Con will bring its first three-day convention to the Seaport World Trade Center Friday August 8 through Sunday August 10, 2014. In the seven years since its founding, Boston Comic Con has grown from a one-day show that attracted an estimated 900 comic book enthusiasts to last year's record turnout of more than 23,000, which organizers expect to top this year.
"The community in Greater Boston that loves comic books and related television and film is tremendous and growing," said Nick Kanieff, a founder of Boston Comic Con. "We are home to some of the industry's most talented artists and devoted fans, all of which will join us in great numbers this August. Boston Comic Con has just enough of a celebrity touch to bring in ardent fans while still honoring the artists and writers who are the backbone of the industry."
The 2014 Boston Comic Con will feature celebrity appearances by Jason Momoa of "Game of Thrones"; John Barrowman of "Doctor Who," "Torchwood" and "Arrow"; Sean Astin of "The Goonies" and "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy; James Marsters of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel"; Katie Cassidy of "Arrow"; Eve Myles of "Torchwood"; Jewel Staite of "Firefly"; Sam Witwer of "Being Human"; and Darryl McDaniels, aka DMC, of Run-DMC, one of the founding fathers of the hip hop and rap movement, who is producing his own comic about a rap superhero. Celebrities will also participate in panel discussions, Q&As, photo ops, and signing autographs throughout the three-day convention.
Among the 200+ comic book creators taking part in the convention are well known artists such as artist Greg Capullo and writer Scott Snyder, who together produced legendary Batman story arcs as The Court of Owls, Death of the Family and Zero Year for DC Comics. Indie sensation Jeff Smith, creator of the fantasy epic Bone, makes rare appearance at this year's convention. Also featured is artist Adam Kubert, best known for his work with Marvel Comics on Wolverine, Incredible Hulk, Ultimate Fantastic Four, and X-Men. He is both a graduate of and an instructor at the famed Kubert School, founded by his father, legendary artist Joe Kubert. Other creators include Skottie Young, whose current project, Rocket Raccoon ties in with Marvel's summer blockbuster Guardians of the Galaxy, fan-favorite Gail Simone, writer of Batgirl, Birds of Prey, and Wonder Woman, and Mark Waid who is the most prolific writer of popular characters such as Superman, Spider-Man, and Daredevil.
Participating Boston-area artists include husband and wife team Shelli Paroline and Braden Lamb, Joe Quinones, Maris Wicks, Ming Doyle, Norman Lee, Sara Richard, and several others.
Boston Comic Con is especially proud of its showcase of 14 top women creators including: Christy Blanch, Danica Brine, Katie Cook, Danielle Corsetto, Ming Doyle, Dawn Griffin, Rebekah Isaacs, Shelli Paroline, Sara Richard, Gail Simone, Cat Staggs, Babs Tarr, Maris Wicks, and Chrissie Zullo.
"Boston Comic Con is at the forefront of supporting local artists, especially women creators. It is truly an organic, home-grown event that has gained popularity over the past few years," said Kanieff, a Framingham resident who is also an avid collector. "We welcome everyone, from families with young children, to college students, to older comic book fans. There is something for everyone at Boston Comic Con."
New This Year
The first Boston Comic Con Cosplay Harbor Cruise will take place on Saturday, August 9 from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. The cruise will be hosted by Ivy Doomkitty, international costume designer and cosplayer, and features noted cosplayers including Nicole Marie Jean, Destiny Nickelsen, and Bethany Maddock.

Additionally, Marvel editor C.B. Cebulski will be on hand to provide portfolio reviews for aspiring comic artists. And this year's exclusive t-shirt features Rocket Raccoon drawn by Guardians of the Galaxy artist Nick Bradshaw with colors by Rich Woodall.
"Not only is Boston Comic Con drawing interest from the area's extensive comic book community, but it's becoming a destination event that brings tourists to Boston," said Kanieff. "The growing excitement around this convention demonstrates the strength and vibrancy of the creative community we have here in Boston and in the surrounding region."

Las Vegas Comic Expo Relocates to the Riviera
September 21, 2012 by Colin Solan
Filed under Animation, Comic Books, Comic Strips, Convention News, Horror, Movies, Nevada, Other, Science Fiction and Fantasy, Television, Top Stories, Webcomics
Comments Off on Las Vegas Comic Expo Relocates to the Riviera
Las Vegas Comic Expo, previously announced to be held at the Alexis Park All Suite Resort, will be relocating to a new venue, the Riviera Hotel and Casino, directly located on the Las Vegas Strip!!!
Due to the flash floods from the recent rain storms, the original hotel and halls located at the Alexis Park Resort were damaged beyond immediate repair to house Las Vegas Comic Expo. Drywall, carpet and a lack of power proved too much to repair in such a short window, thus making the shift to the Riviera necessary.
We sincerely apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused any of our guests, vendors and attendees. But oddly enough this unfortunate circumstance actually has led to an expansion for the show with a larger convention hall and plenty of space for attendees to browse and shop. The new location at the Riviera will be able to showcase and accommodate the entire guest list of over 50 of the top names in comics and entertainment all united with the exhibitors and artist alley in one grand exhibit hall. The gaming, panels and programs will be conveniently located adjacent to the main hall as well.
The dates of the convention hours remain the same for Las Vegas Comic Expo: Saturday, September 29 (10AM to 7PM) and Sunday, September 30 (10AM to 5PM).
All tickets previously issued will be honored and redirected to Las Vegas Comic Expo at the Riviera. Tickets are still available for sale in advance as well as at the door on the days of the event.
Located on the Las Vegas Strip, The Riviera Hotel and Casino is just a quick cab or shuttle ride from McCarran International Airport (LAS) and only minutes away from downtown Las Vegas and the Fremont Street Experience.
The hotel offers guests amenities of many dining options including a buffet, food court and steakhouse as well as the Oasis Pool, a barber shop, beauty salon, tattoo parlor (What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas), gaming casino and other forms of entertainment and conveniences. The hotel has ample free public parking, and is also a short walk to the public monorail system.
The Riviera is located at 2901 Las Vegas Boulevard South, Las Vegas, NV 89109.

Website: http://www.LasVegasComicExpo.com
Facebook: http://facebook.com/LasVegasComicExpo
Twitter: http://twitter.com/lvcomicexpo
We are making arrangements with the Riviera Casino and Hotel to offer our guests of Las Vegas Comic Expo similar room rates as we had offered to our guests at the Alexis Park All Suite Resort.
We will have updated information to reserve hotel rooms within the next day.
Once we have that information, we will send it out to everyone.
If you used the "Las Vegas Comic Expo" promotional rate, you have two options.
You can maintain your reservation at the Alexis Park Resort.
The Alexis Park All Suite Resort will run a 14 seat shuttle service, complimentary to and from the Riviera Casino and Hotel, taking our guests door to door. The shuttle service will run on Saturday and Sunday from the Alexis Park every 2 hours at 8:00am, 10:00am, 12:00pm noon, 2:00pm, 4:00pm, 6:00pm, and 8:00pm.
They will also continue to have complimentary shuttle service for their guests between the airport and the Alexis Park All Suite Resort.
You can cancel your room at the Alexis Park All Suite Resort and opt to make a reservation at The Riviera Hotel and Casino. The deadline to cancel at The Alexis Park Resorts without penalty is 48 hours prior to the date of your reservation.
For those who made reservations at Alexis Park outside of the Las Vegas Comic Expo promotions, you will need to discuss with Alexis Park about your options.
If you took advantage of the "Confirmed 100 Offer", your free admission to Las Vegas Comic Expo, as part of our free pass promotion will still of course be honored as long as the following applies:
If you keep your Alexis Park reservation, you will still receive the free admission pass(es).
If you transfer your reservation to the Riviera Hotel and Casino, you will still receive the free admission pass(es).
We will cross check all reservations made with Alexis Park and the Riviera.
With the current situation, the easiest way to claim your free admission is to bring a government issued photo ID (driver's license, passport, etc…) to the Will Call area during the pre-registration or show times.
Her Universe Exclusives at Star Wars Celebration VI

Comments Off on Her Universe Exclusives at Star Wars Celebration VI
Press Release:
The largest gathering of Star Wars fans, Star Wars Celebration VI, is about to take place again in Orlando, Florida August 23rd through the 26th and Ashley Eckstein announced today that she and her fangirl apparel company, Her Universe™, will be there in a big way with a special event, a panel and exclusive merchandise.
• After receiving hundreds of requests from female fans all over the country to be a Her Universe model, Eckstein (the voice of Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars) is offering a free Her Universe photo shoot on Saturday, the 25th from 10am till 7pm in room W305A. Girls are encouraged to come dressed in their favorite Her Universe top or hoodie to be photographed by professional photographer Preston Mack (www.pmack.com). Her Universe shirts will be provided just for the photo shoot if girls do not have one on that day. A sign-up sheet will be posted outside of room W305A that morning for those wishing to reserve a time slot and it will be first come, first served. The completed photos will be posted to a special photo board following the event on Facebook so girls can tag, share and download their photos. "Her Universe is a brand for the fans, and when the fans overwhelmingly tell me what they want, I do my best to make it happen," said Ashley Eckstein. "It's important to me that I am not the only Her Universe model because fangirls come in all ages, shapes and sizes and I want to represent the entire fangirl community by using real fans as my models. I am also so excited to have Preston Mack! He is such an accomplished photographer and I am honored that he will be sharing his time and talents with us!"
• In addition, Eckstein will be hosting a very special panel with author Carrie Goldman based on her new book, Bullied – What Every Parent, Teacher, and Kid Needs to Know About Ending the Cycle of Fear. Carrie is the mother of Katie Goldman, the little girl who was bullied for carrying a Star Wars water bottle to school. Carrie has spent the past year and a half researching and writing about this topic and Ashley encourages fans to come and join the conversation. The panel will take place on Thursday, the 23rd from 3:30 PM – 4:30 PM in room W311 ABCD.
• Celebration would not be complete without exclusive Star Wars merchandise and Eckstein divulged that Her Universe will have two exclusives that fans have been asking for at the Her Universe booth #915. One of the most popular characters from the Star Wars expanded universe, Mara Jade, will be featured on a stunning new V-neck shirt with original art by renowned artist, Cat Staggs. Only 300 of these shirts will be available at CVI. "This is a shirt I was very excited to do," said Cat Staggs. "I love Mara and wanted to depict her as both beautiful and powerful. She, like Leia, is such a fantastic character that while charming your socks off she can also take you down… I hope fans enjoy the shirt just as much as I did creating it." Second, to accent the Mara Jade V-neck shirt, fans will have one more chance to pick up the exclusive R2-D2 3D Sterling Silver plated charm to add to the existing Star Wars by Her Universe charm bracelet. Standing 3/4" in height, there will be only 300 of these adorable little droid charms available at the convention. However, Eckstein recognizes that not all fans have the opportunity to join the fun and travel to Celebration VI, so she is making available a limited number (50 of each) of the two exclusive CVI items on www.heruniverse.com. The exclusives will be available starting at 10 AM EST on August 23rd. First come, first served. In addition to these exclusives, fans can buy Her Universe merchandise at booth #915 for female fans of all ages, including babies and plus sizes. Ashley will also debut two new tank top designs where fangirls can show their allegiance to the Republic or make a statement that they prefer the dark side.
About Star Wars Celebration

Let me get this straight: Arsenal are five points out of a top-four spot in the English Premier League—in need of help nearly everywhere on the pitch except striker, have loads of cash left over from the summer sales of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri. And this is the best Arsene Wenger could come up with?
A 19-year-old German kid named Thomas Eisfeld, who cost the Gunners a mere £400,000, and made but one token appearance for Borussia Dortmund—while struggling to make the first team?
Oh, and Eisfeld faced a "career-threatening" cruciate ligament injury in 2009?
This is the best Arsene could come up with during the January transfer window—a gimpy teenager and an older, heavily-bearded Thierry Henry?
Okay, so maybe there's nothing wrong with adding Henry on loan—if for no other reason than pure nostalgia and a sprinkle of magic from time to time.
Or was Arsene just dreaming about digging up terrible films while actually dumpster diving during a recent bout of narcolepsy?
Here's how I imagine this deal went down between Wenger and Dortmund boss Jurgen Klopp:
Arsene: "Hey Jurgen, may I call you Jurgy?"
Jurgen: "No. Let me guess, Arsene, you want Mario Gotze, don't you?"
Your reaction to the Eisfeld signing?
Arsene: "Noooo, who, me? You think I want Ma—how much?"
Jurgen: "He's not for sale."
Arsene: "C'mon, Jurgy! How much?"
Jurgen: "He's not for sale! And he's injured."
Arsene: "Right, right. Sorry to hear that—what about Robert Lewandowski?"
Jurgen: "Absolutely not!"
Arsene: "Don't you have anything for me, Jurgy?"
Jurgen: "Stop calling me that!"
Arsene: "Sorry—so?"
Jurgen: "Sure. He's 19, he never plays and he'll cost you less than a million."
Arsene: "Perrrrfeeecttt."
Not that anyone should be surprised. Wenger is notorious for both his thriftiness and his preference for young players. The Eisfeld acquisition gives him the perfect opportunity to exercise both tendencies at once.
As for that other tendency—leading Arsenal to the UEFA Champions League—well, that might just have to remain secondary if this is the best Wenger can do.

In between Heaven and Earth
Spencer - Chapter 2
Spencer threw his bedsheets off and got to his feet slowly, in a undisciplined manner, from out of his bed. He was fully recovered from the last mission and couldn't feel any pain no doubt due to being a reaper although he could still trace where his scars were on his body. It made him feel even more inhumane, it seemed to take a certain pleasure and genuineness out of his life although there isn't much he could do about it now. He had a job to do and he couldn't cease to function due to being in a bad mood, seeing as how that wouldn't sit well with his superiors.
As he walked towards his door, he noticed a head-sized raven tapping against the window. Spencer groaned and slid the window open with hesitation, forcibly grabbing the bird and untying the letter on it's leg as it struggled in his arm. As he opened the envelope he noticed the ink was blood red, making Spencer feel slightly squirmish.
We have discovered that a species of fire demon has appeared in the Great Sandy Desert, Australia, Earth. You and your partner for this mission, Adrian Frode...
A sharp pain ran through Spencer's arm as he looked down and saw the bird pecking at his arm and a crimson red droplet fell down his arm. Spencer threw the letter at the bird and his lungs flared.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?" Spencer's fist was shaking and he felt sick with himself once more, replacing his sudden anger. He knew the bird most likely wanted some food or something. Spencer retrieved some crackers and held them out to the bird, who slowly pecked away at the food while climbing onto his wrist. Walking out of the door, Spencer began to make his way out to Australia.
Apparently they didn't think he needed a break from such a disastrous mission. All he was to this society was a tool. It may have been for a good purpose but he knew he was beginning to loathe himself to an extent just for mindlessly following orders like this even though it was for the good of humanity. He lit a cigar and made his way towards the door once more...
Spencer was unable to manipulate his energies to use the psychic-like abilities of his coworkers although his brute physical strength was unmatched. Physical strength hardly did anything helpful though except for in fights, and only against certain enemies. Because of his lack of even a novice ability to even teleport, he was able to carry around an enchanted coin. It wasn't of pound sterling but rather was solely unique and it had no other counterparts, which he could use for inter-dimensional teleportation. All he had to do was flip it and call out the location he was headed to although it had a limit on it which he hadn't figured out yet. This coin was special to him though. It wasn't originally enchanted and it was the only personal possession he had from his mortal life. Looking at it reminded him of his sister, who was the only person from his family who he could still remember entirely, and how little he did to keep his family together...
A coin rotated into the air and landed in Spencer's palm.
"Great Sandy Desert, Australia, Earth, Milky Way." Spencer muttered as the coin returned to his hand by gravitational pull and the instant it returned to his palm, he vanished into thin air, leaving behind a tail of smoke.
As Spencer gained footing he frowned. Back into the desert again. Apparently whoever had the job of assigning him to this mission was a heartless jerk. Without much reaction, he had his usual clothing on: his bartender uniform, and continued to smoke. Holding his hand up, the bird flew into the sky into the direction of the sun. Spencer opened the palm of his hand revealing the coin sinking into his skin. It was apart of him and all that was left to prove that his memories weren't the babblings of a madman.
Spencer pivoted around to see a guy in his twenties wearing jeans and a hooded leather jacket. His hair was messy and he had a dreary gray sword at his hip. Spencer blinked quickly, adjusting his eyes to the lighting of the desert through his shades and held out his hand to who he assumed was Adrian.
"I'm going to take a shot in the dark and assume that you are my partner, Adrian."

I remember when I got my Ruby stolen. Some chunky klepto stole it back in 7th grade. -__-
My friend lost Ruby too. The Pokemon games I still have lost are....Leaf Green...wait...thats it. Figures I lose my only Kanto game.
Alright! The next Johto PotW is...!
Spoiler Alert!GIRAFARIG!
Dex number 203
Type: Normal/Psychic
Ability: Inner Focus/Early Bird
Height: 4' 11"
Weight: 91 lbs
Japanese Name: Kiriniki
Girafarig, the Long Neck Pokemon. Its tail has a small brain of its own. Beware! If you get close it might react to your scent and bite. When it is in danger, its tail uses some sort of mysterious powers to drive away the enemy. Girafarig's rear head contains a tiny brain that is too small for thinking. However, the rear head doesn't need to sleep, so it can keep watch over its surroundings 24 hours a day. A Girafarig is a herbivore - it eats grass and tree shoots. While it is eating, its tail makes chewing and swallowing motions as if it was also eating.
Girafarig... I'm not exactly a fan of it. It's just in general an odd pokemon, being moddeled after a Giraffe. It's tail is... just odd, although it's an interesting aspect of Girafarig at the same time. I don't like it that much.
In a competitive aspect, Girafarig is simply NU, but due to it's lackluster stats, it generally keeps to Baton Passing only. All in all, it's not a very good pokemon at all.
Now then, what's your opinion of Girafarig?
I hate Girafarig it was always a pain to catch and its tail can bite you. What's up with that.
Girafarig ... sucks. It looks like it should be Psychic/Dark (with its chain chomp-like tail being all black) but it's stupid Normal type instead of Dark. Psychic just removes Normal's Fighting weakness, while adding on weaknesses to Dark and Bug, though Normal makes it immune to Ghost... It still seems pretty worthless (in battle, maybe it has other uses like breeding moves).

Girafarig's normal typing was only good in the 3rd gen, when Shadow Ball was being flung around everywhere (by pokemon like Medicham). Now that Dark moves are prevelant with Crunch being physical STAB, Girafarig's normal typing is a burden. As you said, it's losing out on it's fighting resist, and it doesn't gain any useful resists besides Ghost, which isn't very useful. Most ghost pokes will anhilate it either way. :P
In battle, it really is useless, lol.
I dont really like it a lot. The only cool thing about it is its unique duo Normal-typing, and the head on its tail.
bottom line- don't like it

Sponges possess multicellularity but have neither tissue-level development nor body symmetry. Cells that compose a sponge include a layer of choanocytes, a layer of epithelial cells, and amoeboid cells in the mesohyl between the two layers. Choanocytes have flagella that beat to circulate water through the sponge body.

Halleluiah it is almost time to leave for my spring bear hunt! It has been almost 18 months since I booked this hunt and I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel and this time I know it's not a train. My wife and I will be leaving Sunday morning and the hunt starts Tuesday the 15th and runs until the 21st. I spoke with the outfitter last night and they have been seeing several good bears and two really good bears. We will be the first hunters of the year in this area and I will be the only hunter in camp. My wife is going just to be part of the hunt and also to be the camera girl. I have two tags so we will see how it goes and hope to have a success story with some photos when I return.

Vermont officials surprised by NC shooting suspectThe Associated Press | February 20,2013MONTPELIER — Vermont corrections officials say they're surprised by the charges against a Randolph man who allegedly shot a North Carolina state trooper four times.
Twenty-three-old Mikel Edward Brady was arrested Tuesday in Durham on charges of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill Trooper Michael Potts.
The 42-year-old trooper was shot four times Monday. He is recovering from his wounds.
Brady's criminal record dates to 2007 and includes multiple convictions for burglary and grand larceny.
Before Monday's alleged shooting, the most recent charge against Brady was poaching deer.
Vermont Corrections Commissioner Andy Pallito says there was nothing in Brady's past "that would lead you to believe he was going to be pulled over on the side of the road and randomly shoot a cop four times."MORE IN This Just InRutland got two goals from Eli Henni and Ryan McKay made three saves in notching the shutout as...

I would like to adjust the size for the following pattern for the Amian Fedora pattern. Here's the link: http://www.ravelry.c...t&craft=crochet. The pattern is the 5th picture in the 1st row.
I want to make an adjustment for the size circumference of either 21 1/2 or 22 inches. The size in the pattern is 23 inches.

You might get away with just following the pattern with a smaller hook. Do a swatch and see (do the math at stitches per inch). Or, since the child's size is almost 21", make the child's size with a bigger hook. Swatch it up and see. The ladie's size is 90 sts before the brim flare, the kid size is 80 sts, so see what your swatch sts per inch extrapolates out to be for 80 or 90 sts.

A new film by respected environmental publication the Ecologist has highlighted the growing controversy surrounding Cayman Turtle Farm. Investigators from the Ecologist visited the Farm, the last facility in the world to farm sea turtles for human consumption, after WSPA revealed shocking levels of animal cruelty and suffering. The Cayman Islands' Department of Environment (DoE) have broken their silence on the issue for the first time, admitting that it had concerns about the Farm prior to WSPA's investigation. DoE Director Gina Ebanks-Petrie told the Ecologist: "If there's a good thing to come from this then it would be that shining a light on the farm would mean that everybody understands that it is under scrutiny and that it is really important that the husbandry and the care really are important considerations from the Farm's management's perspective." Pressure mounting on Farm The Ecologist film comes in the wake of growing political pressure in the UK, with 65 MPs from across the board already signing up to a Parliamentary motion condemning the Farm. The Cayman Turtle Farm is denying WSPA's claims, with its Managing Director Tim Adam calling the operation "a facility the Cayman Islands can be proud of". WSPA does not believe that forcing over 7,000 sentient animals into cramped, overcrowded tanks is anything to be proud of. WSPA Wildlife Campaigns Manager Rachel Alcock said: "The tide of public opinion is turning against the Cayman Turtle Farm. "The bottom line is simple: there is no humane way to farm sea turtles. We would ask that the Farm would stop burying their head in the sand, engage with WSPA and commit to stopping farming for good."

Christina Gomez couldn't hold back the tears of joy.
Christina, 33, and her husband, Ozzie, 35, held their two children tightly and could say for the first time that they were legally theirs.
"It's just so special to hear the words to know that they're mine," Christina said. "We went from being a couple with no kids to now having two kids."
The Weld County Courthouse in Greeley was the site of celebrations at adoption proceedings Friday as 19th Judicial District Court Judge Marcelo Kopcow presided over adoptions for 14 families and 20 children. Colorado courts celebrated National Adoption Day as judges and magistrates throughout the state finalized the adoptions of more than 150 foster children into permanent families.
"To me, Adoption Day means that these kids are going to have a forever home, and will be able to know where to go every Thanksgiving, every Christmas, and they won't be in limbo," Kopcow said. "We are bringing some forever families to these kids, and some permanency to these kids and that's why it's so special. When Thanksgiving comes, it seems like family is so important."
Kopcow presided over an assortment of adoptions, including kids who were in foster homes who went through the Department of Human Services as agency adoptions, two foreign adoptions from different countries and other adoptions.
The Gomez family, who live in Fort Collins, adopted Christine and Sebastian, both 20 months old, after the two moved into their home under the foster care program. They found out two weeks ago that the adoptions would be finalized, and family from New Mexico as well as friends filled the courtroom to celebrate.
Sebastian is five days older than Christine. Christina and Ozzie have been taking care of Christine since she was 3 weeks old. Sebastian arrived in the Gomez home when he was 7 months old.
Christine is daddy's girl.
"She's so smart. She picks up on everything," Ozzie said.
Sebastian is the independent child.
"He's kind of my strong, silent one," Christina said. "If he needs something, he'll definitely let you know it. He loves to cuddle."
Christina, who is a stay-at-home mom, and Ozzie, who works in retail management, have been married for 11 years and always talked about having a family.
"It's just amazing. We talked a lot about how we would build our family," Christina said. "Foster care for us is very close to our hearts. We made the choice that this is how we were going to build our family through adoption, and specifically adopting children through foster care."
Christina and Ozzie have cared for foster care kids in the past.
"We know there are kids out there that need loving homes, and that's how we wanted to build our family. We were open to foster adopt, which means we were open to children who come into our homes for the purpose of needing foster care while their family works through circumstances," Christina said. "The others who have lived in our home have returned home. These are the first kids that got to this point in the foster care journey."
Ozzie said it was easy to get attached to the foster kids who lived in their home.
"You have to be attached to take care of their needs," Ozzie said. "I think you just hope that the outcome is the best for the child when they return home or when they become adopted. We know that as foster parents, there's a good chance they're going to go home."
Christine and Sebastian lived in Weld County before they were taken in by the Gomez family.
"It's so special. I can't think of anything else other than maybe our wedding day," Ozzie said. "It's exciting. They've been in our home for a long time, so it's so exciting. I can't even put it into words."
Christina became emotional when talking about her two children.
"I have several friends who have had families through different ways," she said. "To go to the hospital and meet their kids for the first time ... I had one very special friend that came up to me and said, 'I feel like I'm going to the hospital to meet your kids, but I already know your kids.' The process for us not having biological kids, I think for us this is just that they're ours. I'm taking Christine to get her ears pierced tomorrow. I could have gotten permission to do it, but I'm doing it tomorrow because she's mine."
Greeley family law attorney Dallas Greenfield, who represented the Gomez family, said it was a special day.
"These are the good days. Absolutely," Greenfield said. "These are the beautiful times. You get the extended families, the church people, the school people, the teachers and the old case workers. Everybody comes and sees the forever family put together."
Terry Cooper of Greeley, the grandfather of Christine, was able to witness the adoption. He is still a part of his granddaughter's life.
"It's been a privilege to get to know them, and it's a blessing to know that she's gone to such an awesome family," Cooper said.
Christina's younger sister, Veronica Delgado, 31, of Las Cruces, N.M., said her heart melted during the adoption hearing.
"My sister has wanted children since I can remember," Delgado said. "She would not let anybody touch her Cabbage Patch dolls in a certain way other than picking them up gently like you would a baby."
As for the kind of parents her sister and brother-in-law will make, Delgado simply said: "The best."

Amazing color. Love these earrings!

Stunningly beautiful!!! Truly unique!!!! Excellent customer service!
Handmade jewels: sparkle & vintage flair.
I have always loved jewelry. Jewelry has history, and with history comes stories...passed along from generation to generation, travels near and far, handmade, a favorite piece worn day after day... I have fond memories of rummaging through my mother's jewelry box at home when I was a young or going through my grandmother's silk jewelry case when she would visit.
I have been collecting and making jewelry since I was very young. I'd save up money to visit the local bead store or dissect my small collection to borrow a bead from a bracelet or pendant from a necklace. Even now I take apart my jewelry and turn it into something 'new', a cycle that is constantly evolving depending on what I envision on that particular day.
My husband is the true inspiration on getting my shop started here on Etsy. After making numerous pieces for friends and hearing compliments from strangers on pieces I had made, he asked me why I never tried selling my jewelry. Thanks to his love and support, here I am!
I use a lot of vintage supplies - the stories behind them are so much more fun to tell. I also use Swarovski crystals for that punch of sparkle that I seem to be attracted to these days. Many items are made in small quantities, mainly because I can only find a certain amount of particular items to sell as jewels in my shop. I am constantly on the hunt for 'new' treasures to jump out at me and inspire new pieces to share with all of you!
Thanks for stopping by my shop and I hope you find something inspiring to add to your jewelry collection!

> For international customers: shipping times vary from place to place. Depending on where you live it can take up to two weeks for you to receive your package.
> To keep shipping and packaging costs down I will be combining orders of multiple pieces in one package with one gift box. If they are gifts please send me a note and I will provide additional packaging.
> I package each item in a natural Kraft pillow box that is wrapped in handmade fabric ribbon.
Refunds and Exchanges
> I want you to be a happy customer! If you are not satisfied with your jewelry purchase please contact me (custom jewelry and items purchased in the clearance section are not returnable). You have 7 days to return the product to me from date of receipt in its original condition to qualify for a refund/exchange; however you must contact me prior to sending the item back. You are responsible for shipping costs.
