Crisply executed dialogue elevates 'Understudy'
"All I see are movie stars movie stars movie stars," laments Harry, the journeyman actor in Theresa Rebeck's rollicking "The Understudy," now on stage in a fun Renaissance Theaterworks production that opened Saturday night. "It's like a disease," Harry continues. Or "maybe more like 'pathology.' Or 'ongoing cultural disaster,'" he concludes.
All true enough, if one is keeping track of the numerous Hollywood stars making fools of themselves on Broadway. But as Rebeck's title suggests, Harry is now understudying one of them: an action-movie stud named Jake, himself improbably understudying an even more famous Hollywood co-star. »Read Full Article

A Permanent Solution to Tonitrophobia.
If you're like most people who live with this fear, you probably wonder if you can ever be rid of it. After 10 years working with people with the most severe phobias, we have yet to come across someone with a case of tonitrophobia that couldn't be overcome.
Here is what we offer:
- Significant progress overcoming tonitrophobia in just 24 hours
- Utter discretion
- Clients in 70+ countries have put their trust in CTRN
How Do You Get Started?
There are two programs we offer to help you overcome tonitrophobia fast. You can choose to experience the Home Study program (going at your own pace on your own time), or choose to work one-on-one with a highly-qualified practitioner:
Home-Study Program: Vanquish Fear & Anxiety
CD's & Workbook – or – Immediate Download Available
• Get Underway Instantly & Download Now
• Work Through the Program on Your Time
One-on-One 'VIP' Program
Personalized Program Developed with Own Practitioner
• Board-Certified Practitioner
• Highly Developed System to Permanently Overcome the Underlying Fear
How This System Works
The core of the problem is that your unconscious mind is repeating patterns of thinking that generate the fear… and now its time to change things up so those patterns don't run any more. You know that Tonitrophobia isn't working for you. But it affects you because your unconscious mind has associated thunder and lightning with fear and perhaps a bunch of other negative emotions and they get triggered automatically – like clockwork – every time.
Getting rid of those automatic feelings isn't hard – you just need the right techniques for changing your reaction to your personal set of thunder and lightning-related triggers. We're here to give you give you what you need to take back control. Success is on the way – all you need to do is get started:

It's Time to Vanquish Your Tonitrophobia: Treatment & Cure
Here's the thing, our system does not treat or cure your fear. The key to this program is knowing that you are the one who will be making the changes. Quite simply, we are here to hold your hand through this method of self-empowerment.
The process educates you with exact steps on how you gain self-confidence, calm and happiness, as well as proven methods to overcome anger, sadness, fear, hurt, guilt and anxiety. Why keep living your life with negative emotions when you can easily change them? Harmful thinking isn't helping – you need to make some serious changes now.
Risk Factors & Causes for Astraphobia
Tonitrophobia in many (but not all) cases is triggered by a nasty experience in the past. In some cases, the mind has seemingly, without basis, created the fear. To locate the foundation, and substitute encouraging connections in place of the negative ones, is the solution. People who are at the greatest risk include:
• People with a general tendency towards fear and anxiety
• One who seems to be 'high-strung'
• People suffering from adrenal insufficiency
Any of those portray you? Click here to see what individuals like you are saying about our capability to make a difference.
Or you can <see what the media> is saying.
The Warning Signs You Should be Looking For
To find out the gravity of the problem for you, use our 2 minute Online Assessment for Tonitrophobia Online Test although it is fairly clear cut: If this phobia is having a significant negative impact on your life, its time to do something about it.
- Does the thought of Thunder And Lightning make you nauseous?
- Do your palms get clammy and your mouth feel like cotton?
- Does your heart begin to pound?
- Do your legs turn to rubber?
Those are just a few of the symptoms. Click here to learn more about the symptoms of tonitrophobia.
We not only help you deal with the symptom you experience, but we find the cause. This is what CTRN is all about
Pills and Medication
To use <pills and medication for Tonitrophobia> isn't supported in our program because we believe they act as 'camouflage', That said, you should follow your doctor's recommendations and always and seek proper medical advice if you want to change any medication. Drugs may produce a short-term improvement by masking symptoms, but they never tackle the core problem of the overwhelming automatic fear response to thunder and lightning.
There hasn't been a medication created specifically for treatment of Tonitrophobia, just general broad-application meds – When looking for an answer, maybe you should think about possible side effects before turning to prescription drugs.
The good news is with our system you will vanquish your Tonitrophobia, without drugs..

Town of Cobram in shock after man dies in fight
- From: Herald Sun
- January 03, 2014
THE heartbroken girlfriend of a young man who died after being caught up in a fight at a service station in Cobram has led a wave of tributes for the "fun-loving" footballer.
Struggling to come to terms with his death, Kelli Berdini described Hayden Atkinson-Thring as her "soulmate".
She said she was trying to be strong and would cherish every minute she had spent with him for the rest of her life.
"I'm so thankful that I had the chance to have such an amazing person in my life and to be a part of his," she said.
"(I've) lost my best friend and soulmate. I feel like the best part of me has gone."
She said her love for him was "indescribable".
The tiny town near the Victorian-NSW border was in shock as it woke to the news 20-year-old Mr Atkinson-Thring had suffered a fatal stab wound as he stopped to refuel at the Caltex service station on the corner of the Murray Valley Highway and Station St about 10.30pm on Thursday.
Witnesses told the Herald Sun, the Cobram Secondary College graduate fell to the ground and quickly became unconscious after he was stabbed in the gut when a "verbal altercation escalated".
Despite the efforts of friends and paramedics to revive him, he died soon after.
Police were last night trying to determine what happened.
The former Barooga Football Club player's family was too distraught to talk about their loss. But a family friend told the Herald Sun he was "one of the best kids" and that he "never picked fights".
She said he was on the way home when tragedy struck.
He was caught "in the wrong place at the wrong time", she said.
Friend Jaxn Townley-Fox said he would think of his mate every day.
"RIP Hatch, I love you like a brother," he said.
Another friend, who did not wish to be named after she watched on in horror as Mr Atkinson-Thring died, said he was a "wonderful, fun-loving guy".
"He was friends with everyone," she said. "Everyone is just trying to understand why this has happened."
Local teen Reid Wilson witnessed the incident at the petrol station.
He said several men were tussling for a minute or two before the victim ran towards the assailant, was "stabbed in the gut" and fell to the ground in front of a crowd of people.
Mr Wilson said he thought the victim had been punched until he saw the knife.
He said he knew Mr Atkinson-Thring and described him as a "good kid" who didn't deserve it.
Police said up to 20 people had gathered at the service station when the fight broke out.
An 18-year-old Shepparton man and a 27-year-old Cobram man who fled the scene, were on Friday night in custody being questioned by police.

Historical Traveler Reviews Mercure Bristol Brigstow Hotel
A lovely Experience
My girlfriend and I stayed in the lovely hotel on a weekend in Bristol. The Staff were extremely efficient and friendly to the point of directing us step by step when lost in Bristol.
Try a room with a view over the river looking down on the beautiful glassboat restaurant below and the swans swimming. The bedrooms are very modern and well laid out with a lovely clean en-suite bathroom with Plasma screens in there. Robes are also provided which are fluffy and soft.
A must for a romantic soppy weekend. Going back soon.
Modern, Stylish and in a Great Location
Been there twice this year first for May bank holiday then august bank holiday and fab both times, had an upgraded room overlooking the river which was nice. The room itself is different from other hotels, very stylish and modern, thankfully wooden floors so none of these horrid carpet stains. In a great location only 5 mins to the shopping part and 5 minutes to all the bars at the quay. Only down side is the parking as you have to pay to park in the NCP next door
Stylish and comfortable
Stayed in an upgraded room, with balcony. Interesting and original room design, slightly odd colour scheme. Balcony nice, although there's not a particularly exciting view. Bathroom has small flat panel tv above the bath -- totally loved this and haven't seen it in any other hotel. Separate shower. Mini-bar. Small business centre in hotel. Breakfast OK in dining room/restaurant.
Would certainly stay again, although Hotel du Vin would be my first pick.
Perfect Location
The Brigstow is a great contemporary hotel. Compared to it's peers, it is heads and shoulders above them. It is centrally located and only a 5 minute walk to all parts of the central city. For people who run, it is on the river that runs through the city. There are running areas on both sides. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. The food at the resturaunt for dinner is top notch. I would recommend it to anyone.
Valentines weekend
stayed at the Brigstow for Valantines night, we had a fab time, the room was great, loved the TV in the bath!!! very clean, staff were friendly, ate in Eclipse, food was great and reasonably priced!! only downside was the parking, Cost ?12.60 although the car park is practically next door, its still pricey!!! although the hotel is in a great location, pleanty of bar, restaurants around and lovely view too!! would definately return!!!!
Really Really Great Hotel. Excellent prices, clean modern rooms, great location. A little gem in the city.
The Brigstow what a great hotel
I regularly stay at this fantastic hotel. I can only say what extensive training all the Brigstow team must have which is reflected in the friendly manner all staff I have come across display. Nothing seems too much trouble, I always find the food really nice. Check in and out usually very quick with efficient staff. Every person you see during your stay always greet you with a friendly smile "good morning" etc..
The public areas are always clean bright and well presented. My room (and I have stayed in a few other hotels) is always cosy, with clean linen, lovely soft towels and at the end of the day there is no better way to unwind than to languish in the bath with the best touch ever a plasma T.V. you don't even have to get out of the bath to watch. All i can say is well done to the Brigstow team, you should be proud of yourselves I would certainly recommend this hotel to any one visiting Bristol. See you all again soon.
THE BRIGSTOW HOTEL - a breath of fresh air!!!!
I visited the Brigstow Hotel for the first time recently and, as soon as I walked into reception, it was like a breath of fresh air. The contemporary uncluttered feel and the warm reception I received was so refreshing. I loved the bedrooms and was knocked out by the plasma screen in the bathroom - what a fantastic idea! Dinner was a delight, well cooked and delicious. I was made to feel very comfortable by the excellent restaurant staff, which is so nice, especially when you are a lone female traveller [although, I suspect that all the Brigstow's guests are treated in the same way]. My compliments to the Manager for a beautifully run Hotel - I would certainly visit again when I'm next in the area. I've been in the hotel and tourism industry now for over 25 years and the Brigstow certainly rates as one of my more memorable experiences.
Don't be fooled by first impressions
Being a Bristol girl originally, I often find myself visiting family and friends in the area and prefer to have the independant space of a hotel room. For years I have used the Swallow, Marriott and Redwood Lodge with very little complaint, but was delighted to hear about the arrival of a new boutique style hotel (being a 20 something the Marriott decor can prove to be a "bit much" for more than a couple of nights. My initial impressions were favourable and having worked in interior design I could look beyond the first impressions and see a well planned design. The public areas were smart and relaxing and the bedrooms spacious and well equipped. The use of glass fronting the river creates a wonderful effect. There are however some awfully planned elements. The wooden floors in the halls and bedrooms ensure that you hear every footstep or suitcase being wheeled along, or even more annoying the clattering of the housekeeping trolleys at an ungodly hour of the morning. The heavy doors on every room sound as though everyone is a little disgruntled as they leave. The staff are on the whole disinterested, there are very few exceptions. The food is always disappointing and I am certain that customer service is the very last thing on anyone's mind there. After a few disappointing incidents, the Brigstow redeemed itself after I arranged a family lunch to celebrate my Grandmothers birthday, the service was exceptional and the food very much agreeable to everyone aged 5 -80. After my stay this weekend however, I will never return. On Friday morning we were told that at 9.32 we were too late for breakfast, despite the restaurant being quite full with people who had only sat down two minutes earlier. We were told that parking was free on Saturday by an incredibly rude receptionist, then to be told by the car parking attendant that it was actually £9. Over a 3 night stay we only had the glasses washed in the room once, the smudges that we found all over the windows were never removed. On Saturday night we were asked to check out by 9 the following morning as they had promised the room to a film crew! Then on Sunday we were told it was fine to park in front of the hotel, to return half an hour later to find that the car had been towed away - £125 later and no apology from the hotel. All in all a very disappointing stay, we will not return and would certainly never recommend it to others.
The best hotel I visit
I travel a lot for my job, and off work I have stayed in hotels all over Europe and the US. Bristol is one of my favourite cities and The Brigstow is my absolute favourite hotel anywhere.
The rooms have the right blend of compactness and space, there are internet facilites in every room, a Plasma TV screen over the bath, and the bed is super-comfortable.
There are excellent views over the river next to which the hotel stands, right in the centre of Bristol, superbly placed for business and nights out or sight seeing.
The excellence of the accomodation and situation would only make the Brigstow one of my favourite hotels. What takes it right to the top of my list is the friendly, welcoming and efficient staff. Every hotelier I have ever visited could learn from the way the Brigstow staff make you feel welcome and at home.
Bristol is well worth a visit, and the Brigstow is the cream on the cake.

A 5-year-old boy is back with his mother after a car thief made off with her car in the Sacramento-area with the boy inside.
Sacramento County Sheriff's officials say they received a 911 call from the woman around 5:15 p.m. Monday. She said she had left the boy in the car with the engine running, as she picked up an older child from a school in Arden-Arcade.
When she returned to the parking lot outside the school, the car was gone. She went back into the school and called 911, but when she went back out again her son and car were there. Her purse was missing.
Sheriff's spokeswoman Sgt. Lisa Bowman tells the Sacramento Bee ( http://bit.ly/GPMKsm ) the thief may not have realized the child was in the car.
The boy has described the suspect to authorities.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Kiffin, Keyshawn added to Bucs' Super Bowl reunion
TAMPA - Monte Kiffin and Keyshawn Johnson have joined the list of more than 50 former coaches and players planning to attend Sunday's Tampa Bay Buccaneers' reunion of the 2002 Super Bowl championship team. Kiffin, the team's former defensive coordinator, is noted as the architect of the Bucs' famed "Tampa 2" scheme. He resigned as Southern California's defensive coordinator last week. Kiffin and his wife, Robin, still own a residence in Pinellas County. Johnson, a wide receiver who now works for ESPN, was not on the original list of alumni but was later able to arrange with his bosses to make the trip. They will join former head coach Jon Gruden and most of the players from the 2002 team during a ceremony at halftime of Bucs game against the Philadelphia Eagles.According to the team, players expected to attend include Warren Sapp, John Lynch, Derrick Brooks, Mike Alstott, Brad Johnson, Simeon Rice, Martin Grammatica, Keenan McCardell, Joe Jurevicius, Michael Pittman, Brian Kelly, Shelton Quarles and Dexter Jackson. Johnson, an outspoken and at times controversial figure during his tenure in Tampa (2000-03), told WHFS-FM radio Monday that he expects to be booed when his name is announced to the crowd at Raymond James Stadium. Tampa Bay defeated the Oakland Raiders, 48-21, in Super Bowl XXXVII on Jan. 26, 2003. The Bucs are billing Sunday's game as a "rematch" of that season's NFC Championship Game victory over the Eagles.

Dr. Lillo is amazing. Warm, friendly, helpful, knowledgable, and competent.
Dr. Lillo: fine physician. Staff: rude. This is a staff, it appearsm, that goes out of its way to express rudeness towards patients.
Best Doctor I have ever had. Never talks down to you and always has a smile. Great Dr, Great person.
I met dr Lilly his first day of work and family has gone to him since He has treated me for many ailments. Some very serious. My faith in him is beyond anything I could write. His staff thru the years also proved he cared and provided the best of care. This is dr day but everyday is dr day for Dr. Lilly. Thank you
I have been going to Dr. Lillo since 2000 and I would be hard-pressed to find another physician as knowledgeable and caring as him and his staff. He never rushes through appointments, and you always feel like he is hearing what you have to say. His support staff always return calls within 48 hours and I have never had trouble getting an appointment to see him when needed. Five stars all the way. We need many more doctors like Dr. Lillo!
I have been a patient for Dr Lillo for the last three years. During this time, I have had routine appointments and emergency appointments. He and his staff have always had great manners and follows up quickly, when needed. I couldn't ask for a better family physician. I have moved (different states) a few times and have just recently moved again. Dr Lillo is the first physician I have had where I am very sad I do not get to keep.
I have had Dr. Lillo as my Dr. for over 19 years. He takes time to figure out the issue. He is kind hearted and he listens to what the issue is. I have never had a better doctor in my life. Due to insurance changes there have been times when he wasn't my Dr., but as soon as I was able I went right back to him. What a great person he is, and would never want another doctor if I could help it!
The Best
I have been going to Dr. Lillo for over 20 years and would not want anyone else for my healthcare provider. He cares about his patients and always has your wellbeing in mind when treating you.
If you have been in a car accident Dr. Lillo is the Doctor to see. He knows exactly how to treat your injuries and will document in detail to support what you may need for future legal issues.
Love Dr.Lillo and his two wonderful nurses!!
he see's things noone else does!
In addition to the above categories, I add that he is an outstanding partner in the maintenance of my health as I age into my late sixties. He is up to date on research and a strong patient advocate when dealing with health care agencies, especially where prescriptions are concerned. Patiently listens to all questions. If you are looking for a doctor, look no further.
Dr Lillo actually cares about me as a person. He takes the time needed to help and explain and is never arrogant like so many in the profession.
I have had the honor of being a patient of Dr. Lillo's for the past 30 years. Dr Lillo has always been forthright and honest dealing with my medical needs and has always sent me to good doctors when the need arises. I appreciate that in a doctor and have recommended him to many of my friends through the years, and will continue to do so as long as he is in practice. Afterall, it is very hard to find the best, and Dr Lillo is one of the best in my opinion.
The breadth and depth Dr. Lillo possesses is only surpassed by his deep caring and his ability to communicate. His diagnostic skill is, in my experience, unsurpassed, his bedside manner is suburb and even with a busy schedule he manages to keep up on all the latest in medicine. Where Ive often sat in Doctors waiting rooms for over an hour Ive never waited more than five minutes in his office. In life it isnt often one can recommend people whole heartedly, but Dr. Lillo is a rare exception. I recommend his without reservation.
Although the front/back office staff has always left something to be desired (particularly to those of us long-time patients), Dr. Lillo, his assistant and nurse are wonderful. He is attentive, caring and responsive to patient needs.

Ashikabi SU:
Akira Takako
Akira has curly, jet black hair that goes nearly to her waist, and rather puffy bangs covering her forehead. Her eyes are large and watery blue and appear to have slitted pupils due to the contacts she wears. Set on top of her ruffled hair is a pair of phony cat ears that she never removes. She does her best to keep her hair covering her actual ears so it looks more like the cat ears are her real ears.
She stands at 5'5", not really short but not really tall either. Her skin is lightly tanned from the amount of time she spends outside, though not incredibly so since most of that time is spent either in the shade or in the late evening. Her hands are rough and calloused, contrary to what her soft appearance would make one think, and she usually sports a number of cuts and bruises from falling over, which she does a lot. While she may not appear so, she is actually quite strong from all the time spent climbing trees, running after stray objects, and other feline activities.
Besides the cat ears she wears on her head, she also wears a collar with a bell around her neck and a fake cat tail attached to whatever pants she is wearing. Since she believes her cat form would be black to match her hair, she wears nothing but black clothes. Black pants, black shirts, black shoes, black everything. There isn't a single article of clothing in her closet that isn't black.
For someone her age, Akira is definitely quite childish and playful. She is very bubbly and seems to have boundless energy. She simply can't hold herself still and is always on the move, making some new discovery or playing some game. She is very curious about the world around her, but the conclusions she comes to are rarely realistic, ranging from stories of angry ghosts being the cause of depression to stories of magical beings that control the weather with their emotions. No matter how far-fetched something may be, Akira is bound to believe it. However, she's only gullible about unbelievable things; if someone tells her something that's perfectly believable and normal, she's more likely to be skeptical about it, even if they are telling the truth. The only ones she'll believe under any and all circumstances, whether those circumstances be abnormal or normal, are her close friends. Akira also gets very upset when a friend gets hurt and is likely to do something even more reckless than her usual stunts if she thinks it will either help them or get back at the person who hurt them.
Akira can get along with most anyone; or at least, she would be able to if she was a bit more down-to-Earth. Most of the people are really just trying to be polite when they sit and listen to her prattle on about whatever topic. While Akira is very outgoing, she is also quite blunt and isn't afraid to speak her mind, and that puts a lot of people off. This added to her unrealistic beliefs leaves her with very few real friends and with absolutely no romantic relationships, or any relationships for that matter. She doesn't seem to care much, however, and keeps a positive outlook on life - as well as an outlook for any possible adventure.
Her attention span is very short. One moment she could be having an in-depth conversation about the upcoming zombie apcolypse, and the next she's running after a feather caught in the breeze. When she's given a responsibility, however, she is very strict on herself and won't allow anything to distract her.
Promises are very important to her and she never breaks any promises she makes, no matter the cost to her. People in the past have taken advantage of this, but she's becoming more careful who she makes promises to.
Starting Location:
Northern District
Akira is an excellent cook, proven by the fact that even Fia enjoyed her food. She also has a very sharp eye and can catch small details quite easily.
Akira was raised by a mother and father who cared very little for her beyond her basic necessities. They fed her, they clothed her, and they sent her to school, but beyond that, they could care less about her or what she did. To make up for the love she didn't receive from her parents, she tried to make friends with other children her age; however, to them she was either too clumsy or just too strange. When she learned that she wasn't going to be making any friends any time soon, she turned back to her parents, questioning why they never spent time with her. They answered of her pleas for family time with promises for trips to the park on the weekend or for large family meals if she did well in school or anything else that would make her leave them alone; every time, when the time came for them to fulfill these promises, they would come up with an excuse for why they couldn't keep them and Akira would be left alone again. It was because of all of these broken promises that Akira became so resolute to never break a promise she made; she didn't want anyone to feel as if a promise, not matter how small, meant nothing at all.
After years of trying, Akira finally gave up and moved on to trying to find other things to distract herself with. She turned to exploring the area around their house, gradually moving her expiditions further and further away from the house until she knew pretty much every nook and cranny within a few miles of where she lived. This couldn't keep her entertained forever, though; then one day, she finally was tall enough to open the attic door.
For eight whole years, the attic was the only place in the entire house Akira had never seen, even if she used a step ladder. Then finally, at 8 years old, she could make it up! Within the confines of the dusty - but surprisingly well lit - attic, Akira found a box full of her father's old manga collections. From that day on, she spent nearly all of her time up there, reading manga after manga - many of which probably weren't the best thing for a young girl her age to be reading. Her innocent mind took many of the fictional plots for fact, and she became especially attached to any cat-like characters, partly because of the cat her family owned. This attachment quickly became an obsession, and it eventually reached the point where she somehow became convinced that
was actually a cat that had been trapped in human form.
Really, this was a way for her to deal with her parents' indifference towards her; after all, if she was a cat, then there was no possible way she could truly be their child, so they had no obligation to show any love for her. As the years went by, though, it became more than just a way of coping with her loneliness, and she truly started to believe it. Her parents were no help, since they didn't take notice of the obsession until it was too late.
By the age of 12, Akira had adopted her current style of clothing, and had even schooled herself in the art of purring. At first, she had simply thought it was appropriate to purr when she was happy since she was a cat. After a time, though, it had simply become a habitual thing that she did without even thinking. The other kids at school avoided her even more and she was the topic of many scornful conversations, but she had long ago stopped caring as she believed she had found her "true self".
Then, when Akira was 16, Fia came along. It was pure coincidence that they met. Akira was attempting to climb to the very top of a tree, when one of the branches snapped. She only survived because her landing was padded by a certain white haired Sekirei. After recovering from a sore back and rump, and after a million apologies which Fia tried to brush off so she could simply be on her way, Akira insisted on repaying her by making her dinner. Fia, not one to turn down what could possibly be a very good meal, went along with the teenager.
Akira did not disappoint. She had been forgotten during meals before and so had cooked for herself many times before, and
she now used everything she had learned to repay her unintentional savior. Fia was so delighted with the meal that she decided she would be staying in Akira's house. Akira had no problem with this; in fact, she was quite excited at the prospect of a possible friend. However, she doubted that her parents would be too keen about the idea of a random stranger staying in their house, even one as beautiful as Fia.
In the end, Fia made set herself up in the attic. Akira had cleaned it up over the years, so it was no longer the dusty mess it once had been and was actually rather cheery, even having a small window to let in light besides a bright lamp. Since Akira already spent most of her either up there or outside anyways, her parents didn't suspect a thing - not that they had anything to be suspicious of, since both of them were usually at work all day.
Over the next few weeks, the two grew surprisingly close. Akira was completely unaffected by Fia's biting comments, and Fia in turn found Akira's strange fantasies quite amusing to listen to. Their relationship became one similar to that of siblings. Fia was the condescending older sister attempting to straighten out her wayward younger sister, and Akira was the innocent younger sister with no idea what the real world was like, yet who still had a child's wisdom to share.
To Akira's disappointment, barely six months had passed before Fia had to leave for a reason she wouldn't tell Akira; after all, during her time living in Akira's house, Fia had not once told the teenage girl what she was, and she had no intention to reveal that secret now. Fia left after promising Akira that they would meet again one day. Akira continues to believe that they will.
A few short years later, Akira moved out of her parents' house to make her own way in the world. She started out poorly enough, having trouble finding work that suited her odd habits, but eventually she settled on setting up her own little home-run daycare. She found it quite pleasing, as the children didn't care how strangely she acted, and the parents found her to be trustworthy enough despite her odd view on the world.
Despite having quite a comfortable and happy life now, Akira still continues to hope that one day, she'll be able to live out one of the adventures from her manga.

The term venture capital is interpreted in different ways. It is a form of private equity capital which is provided to emerging or high growth potential companies. In fact they are expected to lend their support or expertise along with the capital to the invested companies. In return for the high risks which the venture capitalists undertaken, they have considerable amount of influence on the decisions of the company. The growth of countries like Malaysia has been due to a large influx of venture capital and that too particularly from the domestic or offshore areas. In financial terms venture capital is also known as risk capital. Some of the characteristics which are required in a venture capitalist are as follows
€ Well groomed management skills
€ Ability to take well informed decisions
€ Solid technological background as well as analytical skills of the highest order
€ Well knowledgeable also
Firms in Malaysia normally opt for this capital, even though the cost of acquiring is high. This is because it will be very difficult for a new firm to get any financial assistance from the market or raise money from the public. The need for this form of investment is all the more necessary in south Asian countries to bridge the gap between capital and knowledge along with utilization of maximum resources at the disposal.
The market in Malaysia is expected to grow in the year 2020 by up to 4.5 trillion. The expansion strategies are oriented towards expanding the role in the capital market and growth strategies needs to be formulated as far as market stability or investor protection is concerned. The objective of all these strategies is to make the country prepare to counter the challenges in the present decade. In addition to this initiatives will be taken to increase participation in Venture Capital Malaysia along with private equity industries by establishing a regulatory framework for the functioning of these industries.
There is a thin line of difference between this form of capital and private equity. Though they resemble a lot in similar, if you closely observe them the difference can be found. First and foremost private equity buys firms across all industries, whereas the venture firms are more focused on technological as well as bio tech or clean firms.
