Rated 5 out of 5 by sandshot Works great!! I recently purchased the Bushnell NEO XS GPS....I love it!!! has more courses than my old one plus has hazard distances as well as the ability to track the distance on a shot. Battery works just fine as my old one barely got me through an 18 hole round. I would definitely recommend this product. I did buy it when it was 30% off so a great value. June 2, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Stevie Great little device! A must have for any golfer regardless of ability... 1) Amazingly accurate 2) Extremely lightweight 3) Battery life far exceeds a round of golf 4) Use anywhere.... May 20, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by bobmurf as advertised No fees. Two to three rounds on a charge. Comfortable. Never wore a watch playing before but don't even know it's there until you need it.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Daniel42 yardages are off disapointed with this gps. A friend of mine has the same gps and the difference in yards ranges from 5 to 7. mine being higher May 18, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by Jim60 Not accurate Don't waste your money. Not very accurate played with a friend that has the sky caddie the Neo XS would be anywhere from 5-20 yards off. Sometimes long but most of the time short. Standing of the 100 marker it would read 82-89 most of the time. I'm returning to store. May 15, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by Zig It Just Works Used the XS for the first time yesterday. Course loaded within 2 minutes. Yardage distances were very accurate. Really like the hazard and layup distance feature. Very comfortable, easy to read.

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

Mauritius has become a model for the successful transition from a trade-preference dependent economy to a globally competitive economy. The EU has contributed to this success through tailor-made development concepts.
Mauritius' assets are a stable democratic system with a constitution based on the British parliamentary system; good and effective institutions; high investments and growth (4.5% on average over 2000-2015) which facilitated a fairly balanced economic and social development of the country. Its economy has been diversified relying on textiles, sugar, tourism, financial services, information technologies and fisheries. However, challenges remain such as one of the world's highest rate of population density and the endemic vulnerability of a small island nation.
Mauritius continues to play a constructive role in the fight against piracy and maritime crime. It hosts the office of the Indian Ocean Commission.
The last parliamentary democratic elections were held in December 2014. In June 2015 parliament elected Ameenah Gurib-Fakim as the first female president ever in Mauritius history.
EU-Mauritius political relations are very comprehensive and extend well beyond development cooperation covering many global issues of mutual interests. The EU has been Mauritius' main trading partner for years.
The EU has contributed to the success of the government's 10-year economic reform program since its beginning in 2006. In addition to funding from the 10th European Development Fund (EDF) of €64 million, 100% of the Sugar Accompanying Measures (AMSP) from the European Commission Budget was channeled through general budget support.
The 11th EDF has classified
Mauritius as a higher middle-income state. Therefore funding has been reduced to € 9.9 million mainly focussing on Tertiary Education including research and innovation.
However financial support from various horizontal and regional EU-funding baskets continues. It remains to be seen how Mauritius will master its role between its former position of a receiver of EU development and the aspired role of a high income country. To meet this challenge Mauritius has embarked on the extension of economic and trade relations in Southern Africa and in the wider region of the Indian Ocean.

In Kind and Usual Punishment: The Prison Business (1973), her book about the American penal system, Mitford condemns sentencing procedures, the parole system, and the use of prisoners in psychological and physiological research.

Edinboro women beat Gannon, take control of PSAC West
The Edinboro women continue to dominate their rivalry with Gannon.
The Fighting Scots throttled the No. 3 Golden Knights in a 69-57 victory Wednesday night before 1,026 fans at the Hammermill Center.
Four days after a forgettable 80-55 home loss to California, the Scots (17-5, 11-1 PSAC West) took control of the conference race with their seventh win vs. Gannon in the past eight games.
Edinboro used a hot-shooting first half and a pair of back-breaking3-pointers by Lauren Hippo to complete the regular-season sweep.
Junior guard Valerie Majewski led four double-figure scorers with 17 points as Edinboro jumped to a 37-21 lead at the half.
Gannon (22-2, 11-2), which got 22 points from junior forward Nettie Blake, was 1-of-11 in 3-pointers and never fully recovered. The Knights finished 2-for-20 from behind the arc in the game.
Gannon eventually cut the lead to 52-46 on Blake's 3-point play with 6 minutes, 15 seconds to go as the crowd got into it.
Hippo, a sophomore guard from Altoona who was 4-of-5 from deep, drained two 3-pointers as Edinboro regained control and deflated the Knights.
"My teammates were able to get me the ball, and I was able to make the shots that helped us rebuild the lead and help us win the game,'' Hippo said.
"We love Lauren as our sixth man because she gives us a boost off the bench,'' Edinboro coach Stan Swank. "We started her tonight, and she hit some shots in the first half when we build the big lead.''
The Scots started the game strong, knocking down 3-pointers, getting second-chance points and scoring off turnovers.
Gannon made its first two shots, then Edinboro scored 12 straight points. That stretch included Darche' Jackson hitting a jumper and scoring off a steal, while Hippo nailed a go-ahead 3 and Majewski drained another for a 14-4 lead.
Hippo and Lindsey twice collected 3-pointers, and Majewski's fast-break made it 28-10.
The Scots made 5-of-10 3-pointers and shot a solid 44 percent (15-of-34) from the field.
"They probably made more 3-pointers than they have all season (7-of-17), and our outside game was non-existent,'' Gannon coach Jim Brunelli said. "We had some good looks, but they didn't go in. You have to have a balanced attack. We can feed it into Nettie all we want but you can't win without making outside shots. Give Edinboro credit for sagging in and running at us at the right time.''
Gannon seemed to miss the alarm clock and never woke up in the first half
The Knights missed layups (7-of-30, 23 percent), 3-pointers (1-of-12) and defensive assignments. Gannon turned the ball over nine times and never appeared close to the No. 3 ranking in Division II.
"We just weren't ourselves tonight, especially in the first half,'' said Blake, who had 11 rebounds.
"We played really good defense in the first half, and when they got close, we made some shots,'' said Edinboro redshirt junior guard forward Laurel Lindsay, who had a solid game with 16 points and eight rebounds.
Sophomore center Aignee Freeland had 13 points. Senior guard Jackson reached 1,000 career points with a free throw after Hippo's big hoops.
Senior forward Jen Papich had 12 points and five assists for Gannon, while PSAC 3-point leader Brittany Batts was scoreless.

Students appearing for SSC and HSC examinations this year will be eligible for 25 grace marks for their performance at state, national and international sporting events. The state government's decision to give grace marks only to students falling short of passing marks will be applicable from March 2013. The state board for secondary and higher secondary education has decided to scrap the practice of allotting grace marks to all students excelling in sports as it suspects misuse of the provision after an unprecedented rise in students claiming grace marks in the last few years. Chairman of the board, Sarjerao Jadhav, said; the rule will be applicable from next year since students have submitted their performance in sports for this year.
The decision came in late and hence we will make the rule applicable from March 2013. The board had found a sudden and drastic rise in the number of claimants for the sports grace marks. Subsequently, it sent a proposal to the state government to scrap the system and restrict the benefit only for those who fail to get the passing marks. The proposal was accepted and declared by the state school and sports departments. The board contends that the change will not do injustice to students who excel in sports as they can still avail of the 5% quota reserved for them for admissions to junior college. Participation in sporting events that are endorsed by apex bodies, the School Games Federation of India, Sports Authority of India and the State Sports Council, Maharashtra, would be considered for sports quota marks.

Not a lot of World Football outfield players make it past the age of 35 and those who do so should be commended.
It doesn't really matter what the player did after the 35-year mark, though being productive would help, but we are focusing mainly on the fact that these players played past the age of 35.
All a player had to do to get on a slide was to continue playing after they hit 35, even if it was just for another year.
Here are the 35 Best Outfield Players to Play Past the Age of 35.

text: From Wikipedia: The Glass House or Johnson house, built in 1949 in New Canaan, Connecticut, was an important project for architect Philip Johnson and his associate Richard Foster, and for modern architecture. It was also the place of Philip Johnson's passing in January of 2005. The house is located behind a stone wall on Ponus Ridge Road in New Canaan, and is mostly hidden from the public's view. The Glass House is one of eleven buildings that Johnson either built or refined on his rambling 47-acre estate. After Johnson's death the Glass House passed to the National Trust for Historic Preservation, which opened it to visitors in April 2007. The house often draws comparisons to Mies van der Rohe's Farnsworth House.

Exhausted with how pervasive the process has become, many top recruits are pushing to make a decision before their senior seasons begin.
Others are putting together official visits or making one last unofficial to firm up who their finalists are.
In short, August is going to be a busy month. Just how many recruits will be deciding before their senior seasons is unknown, but there are a few who have made their intentions clear.
I'd like to predict what big names will be committing in this busy month, and where they might be headed.

CNBC just did a documentary on research report sites, they mentioned flash market research (google em) and how retail investors have made millions on their picks because they come out ahead of the street. Flash market research is now profiling SYK, this could be for us!!!
And... the possible laxity in the taxation of medical devices may well be the gift of SYK's purchase of MAKO systems. Incentives galore?
Just got off the phone with one of my associates and decided to bring back some fire into this board, see if we can have a little reunion and talk about the good ole days.

No word yet on fate of Michelle Shocked show at Madison bar
Michelle Shocked's May 4 show in Madison - the last remaining gig on her tour, after anti-gay comments at a concert over the weekend led the rest of the venues to cancel the alt-folk singer's shows - is still on, at least for now.
The Capitol Times in Madison reports that the Harmony Bar in Madison is waiting to make a final decision on the show until the bar's owner, Keith Daniels, returns from an out-of-town vacation late next week. »Read Full Article

Where do you want to go to college?
Not sure where.
Training and getting in shape isn't exactly rocket science. You lift, do cardio, try to eat right and get plenty of sleep (well, at least enough). It is not that complex, but it is not that simple either.
Many people can follow the same training routines and eat the same foods, yet their results may vary significantly. After our discussion last month about getting organized and focused, let's look at some tips and tricks we can employ to maximize our results.
Lady Panthers drop season-opener
Carroll was held scoreless in the first and third quarters, losing 58-24 at Western Hills Tuesday, Nov. 27. Makena Kindoll led the team with nine points, followed by Kayla Williamson, five; Lauren Moore, four; Kristen "Doodle" Amick, two; Tatum McIntyre, two; and Miranda Groseclose, two.
Panthers take down Demons in blow out
The Panthers managed to dodge a second-half scare from visiting Villa Madonna, hitting free throws late to secure a season-opening 59-51 victory Tuesday, Nov. 27, at home. They hit 20 of 26 free throws on the night.
Carroll jumped out to a big lead early, up 19-8 at the end of the first quarter. "I thought we came out, in the beginning of the game, really sharp, really playing well," head coach Carroll Yager said.
The Lady Panthers struggled Friday night to take care of the basketball, especially in press-breaking situations, turning over the ball 35 times in a 55-33 loss to the visiting Lady Raiders.
The gym was rocking Thursday night for what felt more like a playoff game than the second game of the season. But that's to be expected when border rivals Carroll and Trimble collide.
The Panthers dominated on the inside, out-rebounding the Raiders 33-21 and shooting 43 percent from two-point range, while the Raiders drained 12 threes from the outside. But it was Carroll's pressure defense that gave them a plus-11 turnover margin and secured a 67-56 win at home.
Wednesday, Dec. 5
Carrollton Rotary Club meets at noon in the River Room at General Butler State Resort Park's lodge.
AA Big Book study groups meets every Wednesday at 2 p.m. at Carrollton Christian Church, 310 Fifth St.

Reading the John Updike stories: 'Walter Briggs'
I'm reading and commenting on a story from The Library of America's recently published 'John Updike: The Collected Stories' each Wednesday until I finish the collection or give up.
In Updike's slight story "Walter Briggs," the young married couple Jack and Claire are driving back from a thing in Boston with their two droopy little kids in their car. They're passing time in the enforced setting, as these young Updike couples of the late '50s seem to do, with a verbal game: "Who's Best?," riffing on people from their past. »Read Full Blog Post

Geology has surely been in the news lately, with the price of petroleum moving relentlessly upward, a threat to global economic recovery because oil is so central to industrial society the world around.
The hearings that will determine whether eight current and former Bell city leaders will stand trial for misappropriating more than $5 million is a prime example of the "not my fault" mentality that has become commonplace in America today.
I have a confession to make: I used to be a smoker.
Of all the jobs that American citizens might do, and of all the careers for which they may train, only one profession is constitutionally protected. The First Amendment to the Bill of Rights guarantees freedom of speech and of the press; and by "the press", they meant journalism.
Dear governors, welcome to Washington! We are delighted you are visiting us for the National Governors Association Winter Meeting this weekend.
On Saturday morning, I received an e-mail from my cousin, informing me that he – while on a family trip to London – had been mugged and effectively left for dead.
Every couple believes in "happily ever after" when they're in love. As they plan their future together, the thought of separation never enters their minds. But all too often, one or both partners will one day decide the best course of action is to go their separate ways.
The public is bombarded with news reports saying that young people in the U.S. aren't learning enough about science, especially compared to kids in Asia. I'm not sure that's true, because I work at a large university where I see very able American students starting to excel in their scientific careers, and I hear back from them as they flourish in later years.
I now have a better understanding of the phrase "making a mountain out of a mole hill."
Like 111 million other Americans, I opted to spend my Sunday drinking beer and watching oversized men take each other's land by force. It's a national pastime, after all.
Hello Turlock Journal readers! My name is Jonathan McCorkell and I am the new education reporter here. I just wanted to introduce myself and give you a brief outline of who I am, my journalism history and my journalistic philosophy.
We're all in this sinking boat together, so we had better quit fighting and start rowing in unison or else we'll end up at the bottom of the ocean. That is my summary of Gov. Jerry Brown's State of the State address from Monday.It was somewhat inspirational and called on the innovativeness that Californians are known for to lead us into a brighter future. But before we can focus on our soon-to-be bright future, we have to deal with the financial mess that is the California state budget.Instead of heaping all the responsibility for our ...
I remember when I first brought my newborn daughter home from the hospital that my days were filled with worry. I worried about her getting enough to eat. I worried about positioning her in the crib the right way. I worried about germs, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and baby snatchers.
Community Colleges were not totally surprised by the Governor's initial budget proposal. We knew there would be some combination of cuts and increases to address California's $25 billion deficit. However, we did not anticipate the cuts to be as severe.
Late on the night of Jan. 11, in the cozy confines of the Yosemite Room of Turlock City Hall, a Turlock City Council meeting continued on well past 10 p.m.

In an upcoming free Web seminar, Kevin Jennings of the U.S. Department of Education (DOE) will speak to pupil transportation professionals on bullying and harassment.
The online event is scheduled Wednesday, May 19, at 2 p.m. EST.
Jennings, the assistant deputy secretary of the DOE's Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools, will explain the importance of eliminating bullying and harassment, because they detract from a student's ability to focus on learning.
He will also discuss how the Obama administration plans to create safer schools — where all students feel they belong — as part of the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act.
Jennings is the first career educator to hold the position he was appointed to at the DOE, bringing 25 years' experience as a teacher and writer. He taught high school history for 10 years, has authored six books, and wrote and produced the documentary Out of the Past.
Jennings also founded the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network in 1990 and served as its executive director until 2008.
More details and registration for the Web seminar are available on the National Association for Pupil Transportation (NAPT) Website. The event is free and doesn't require NAPT membership, but it is limited to the first 200 people who sign up.
The seminar is sponsored by NAPT, the National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services and the Public School Risk Institute.

Apple vs. the FBI — Do You Agree With Apple? [POLL]
The FBI and Justice Department are attempting to get into the iPhone of one of the San Bernardino terrorists.
The FBI and Justice Department are attempting to get into the iPhone of one of the San Bernardino terrorists.
Kim Komando provided some insight into Apple's newest products, including the iPhone 6S
The new iPhone 6 comes with a lot of features, sure, but is keeping the flame of love burning one of them?
Apple hosted a special event on Tuesday to reveal new products across its line-up, and we've got it all covered for you.
When it comes to Siri, we finally have some insight into what makes her work.
Apple will release a 128GB iPad starting Tuesday, February 5th, and this latest model has twice the storage capacity of the current 64GB versions. For memory hounds keeping score, owners of the Galaxy Note, the BlackBerry Playbook, or the Kindle Fire have tablets that can hold up to 64GB. Microsoft's Surface Pro, which hits stores February 9th, is being released in a 64GB and 128GB version.
You've proven to Apple you'll happily overpay for whatever they sell. So they're going to keep pushing until you give them a reason to stop. Here's the latest...
The world lets Apple get away with a lot. We've let them turn us into materialistic zombies. We look the other way on their products being hand-assembled by Chinese factory workers making pennies. But THIS could push us too far.
Believe it or not, Apple has a STRICT policy that all the laptops on display in their stores must have their screens tilted to 70 degrees. Which is actually an awkward viewing angle. There's actually a reason for that.
Between feedings, diapers and naps, new parents have a lot to think about. And yes, for all you inquiring tech-savvy parents, there's an app to help track all that. In fact, there are several. The real question, however, is, "Are they worth the download?"
Normally I ignore the pigs at the Westboro Baptist Church, since their protests at funerals are just lame publicity stunts. But this time I can all laugh in their hypocritical faces. Find out why on the next page.
Apple's highly-anticipated 'Let's Talk iPhone' event on Tuesday began with newly-installed CEO Tim Cook reflecting on some of the company's successes, as well as one new one: the new iPhone.
Dubbed the iPhone 4S, the gadget keeps with the company's tradition of introducing completely new models every other year, with upgrades in between.

The other day, I stumbled across a review on Amazon for one of my books. It was a one...maybe two star review on a book I tend to be rather proud of, so I went and took a look. Well, the reviewer had noted a glitch in the continuity. A big one. One I was aware of, my publisher was aware of, and we'd made the educated decision to leave in place. In the book "An Uncommon Whore 2: When I Fall, I reversed the names of Griffin's daughters. Did you notice? A few people did, but not many were terribly offended by it.
This reader was very offended.
The actual error wasn't made in When I Fall, but in An Uncommon Whore. During the final review of the book, I read over Maya and Lauren's very brief scene and realized that for personal reasons, I couldn't name Griffin's little dark-haired, scarred daughter Lauren. So I changed the names in the final draft, not knowing they'd already sent the book in for formatting.
When the switch was found in WIF, it was early in the life of the book. We could pull it, switch the names back to the version I believed unacceptable and just go forward. Or...leave the inconsistency in place, since An Uncommon Whore had already been out for a long time. I knew I'd catch some flack but decided to leave the names as I intended to move forward with them. Lauren is the blonde, Maya the brunette. That is in the series bible.
The other issue this reader had is a more tricky one, and in series books, it tends to crop up. In this case, she questioned why Griffin (and Maya) never got their eyes and scars fixed. Since there were almost miraculous advancements in medicine, and the seemingly mystical Vash healers, why would I dump my world-building and not have them healed?
That's where the author has to balance what we share on the page with what's in our head. Every character has extreme character development before I start writing. Most of that information never makes it to the page. For example, Belle in Belle Starr is an alcoholic. When she winds up in a bar, that's a very dangerous place for her to be.
Here's another conundrum: Generally I don't tell people too much about what's in store, but for this reader, I did share a few details. Griffin's Eye is a dangling plot line I planned to pick up in Book 4. Its not a major plot line, but it's there.
So now you know. ;)
While I write in fantasy worlds, I try to keep at least one foot in reality. And I try to keep true to a character's psychological make-up and the limits of their world. In this case, Griffin's eye is in his Goal, Motivation and Conflict chart. At this point in the story, there's no real external force on Griffin to change his looks. Helios loves him without question. Even with the patch, the scars and the missing testicle, Griffin Hawke is beautiful in his way. The Somians always get the hots for him. His kids love him as he is. Maya, in particular, relates to him since her scars mirror his. At this point, Griffin doesn't care. So there's no internal motivation to fix it.
But this goes deeper.
During the seven years of searching for Helios, Griffin was working as a mercenary. Every penny he earned went home, to Neo Domus, where the citizens were literally living in the dirt. They were in crisis mode, and he'd have been terribly out of character to give an iota of care to his eye. He had a co-pilot, and in a pinch, Griffin can land or dock a ship. So the eye wasn't an issue.
How about later? During When I Fall, when he was so badly injured? The Vash healers performed miracles...why not heal his eye and testicle?
Now we get down to world building.
The Vash are organic healers. Its in their DNA. They use psychic abilities to spiritually *enter* a patient's body, to map their nerves, their veins and muscles, on a cellular level. They can coax damaged tissue to heal. In Prince of Faith, they literally save Caius from brain trauma. Within their own species, their skills are almost unlimited. BUT they cannot fix what is no longer there. They could probably smooth scars, but they cannot regenerate missing body parts. They are not omnipotent. They have limits.
There must be limits. No one can be all-powerful. The Vash are powerful in that way, but they are poor fighters, rotten strategists, too kind and they are nocturnal...they burn easily and can't see in bright light. And they can't manifest a body part, no matter how amazing they are.
What about cloning? Or robotics? Well, there's a very good chance that the cloned eye would be non-functional. It would be a massive undertaking with a lot of related pain just for the sake of vanity. Griffin is not vain. Maya is too young for that sort of reconstruction, so its not relevant for this story.
While writing When I Fall, I felt that every single primary character
in the book was suffering PTSD. In Griffin's case, he was finally in a
safe, stable environment, and suddenly, he was re-living the horror of
the Landaun attack. He'd been widowed, saw the public torture (and
presumed execution) of his best friend and forced to witness the torture
of his daughters. His own pain was a side-note in the psychic agony he
suffered. What was vital in that book was his journey toward acceptance of the tragedy of his life, and faith in Helios and his future. During When I Fall, his missing eye was irrelevant.
No, that's not true. Like many of us, we cling to our scars and our mementos of pain. He looks in the mirror and he never forgets what was done to him. When he looks at his daughter, he can't forget what happened to her. Those scars are his sigil. To him, they shout: Never Again! Never Forget! Yet at some point, Griffin will have to let that go. He will have to address Maya's scar someday.
And that, my friend, is Maya's story.
I can explain these things in the comfort of time elapsed, but the review would have stung if I'd read it earlier. It shows me that I did not do an adequate job of showing why Griffin's eye wasn't important in the story. I wasn't clear in my world building. I should have looked at An Uncommon Whore more closely on the release day. Those are my errors and we all make errors. Hopefully, I will learn from this one, and not assume that every reader is going to read my mind and know why a story element wasn't expanded on or addressed.
And those are my musings for today. :) Hope you have a great weekend! If you're curious about When I Fall, you can pick up a copy here:
And its on SALE!
Happy Tails!

There Are Gods Among Us!
The Tenth Muse is now available to pre-order at Pride Publishing! You can order both the e-book and the paperback early, right here:
The Aphrodite Project is a brand new series at a brand new (to me) publisher! This series is a contemporary fantasy, where we follow the adventures of young Greek gods and Aphrodite's attempts to keep them from exposing the existence of the Pantheon to unsuspecting humans. This first case is all about her own son, Eros:
In a wicked game, the God of Love falls to his own arrow, and a gentle scholar learns how dangerous knowledge can be.
Aphrodite has had it.
It was bad enough that her son Eros walked a fashion show in drag, but did he really have to show the entire world his wings? Desperate to rein in the impulsive young god, she recruits the scholarly muse Rees to lure him back to Olympus until the scandal dies down.
After hundreds of years, Eros has finally located the reincarnation of his former love, Psyche. The only way to her heart is through fame, so the God of Love plans a daring campaign to win her back. Yet the closer he gets to Psyche, the more he's drawn to a geeky young professor who came crashing into his life.
Eros drags Rees into his wicked world of high fashion and risqué parties, only to expose him to danger from an unexpected source. When Rees' secrets come out, they threaten to destroy Eros' love for him. Yet when Rees is kidnapped, Eros is forced to turn to the woman who set this catastrophe in motion—his mother, Aphrodite.
Reader Advisory: This book contains some scenes of kidnapping/captivity and graphic scenes of death and violence. This book also contains references to/discussions of rape.
"Oh, Eros…you fucking little son of a satyr…you'd better not—oh…ohhhh—"
Rees staggered back from the anachronistic machine on his studio workbench and pressed the heels of his hands over his eyes. He was firmly caught between swearing and laughing hysterically. Because what he'd just witnessed on the computer… He was grateful to be alone. It was bad. Very bad.
When Zeus finds out about this, lightning bolts will fly.
He shook his head in resignation and returned to the laptop his sister had brought him. He wasn't sure what powered the thing, or by what magic it connected with the human world, but he'd fallen in love with the device on first sight.
But now he was cursing the screen. Because he didn't want to witness Eros' mind-bending, skull-crushing, cross-dressing misadventure. Still, he bit a knuckle, leaned closer to the monitor and almost stopped breathing. Rees had never met Eros in person, but was familiar enough with his image to know that the man moving down a long stage wearing nothing but women's underwear was the darling son of Aphrodite, who just happened to be Rees' mother's closest friend.
It was like a train wreck, as the humans would say, and Rees couldn't look away.
Eros sauntered, his body wrapped in a complex black corset, his privates barely hidden behind a filmy triangle of black silk. His muscular ass was bare and pale as that of a marble statue.
"Eros, I don't know where in hell you're hiding your balls, because they must be big as a Minotaur's." Rees felt heat in his face and knew he was blushing.
The camera cut tight to the god's beautiful face. He looked wicked and sexy under a glistening mask of elaborate makeup. Bolts of silver and blue slashed across his face and down his neck. His long blond hair defied gravity, standing in a wild halo around his head.
His legs were buckled into black leather boots that rose to his thighs.
And he was wearing a bra.
Rees groaned again, chagrin mingling with reluctant arousal.
The air crackled with power as Rees' sister entered the room. He didn't turn to look at her, still mesmerized by the computer.
"By Hades' whiskers…is that Eros?"
Rees nodded. "Yes. I think this is happening now."
"Rees, that's the Dark Angel's live telecast. It's one of the biggest fashion shows in the world!" Like his other eight sisters, Calliope spent most of her life walking among humans, whispering inspiration in the ears of artists, writers and musicians. She was frighteningly familiar with human culture.
"Do you suppose he hijacked that outfit from one of the girls? Because I know damned well that there's never been a male Angel before." She leaned down, looking closer at the screen.
As if in answer to her question, the camera panned back, showing a stunned audience and a parade of beauties who looked angry, resentful and outraged. In the audience, one particularly lovely woman was laughing helplessly.
"That's Rosalinda, she's one of the top models in the world. It's nice to see her laughing."
He kept an eye on the screen as he spoke to his sister. "Calliope, how likely is Ares to find out about this? Unless I'm way off, Eros is using his own wings. He's just charmed the color to black."
"Gods." Calliope went sober. "When Ares gets hold of his son, he'll make the maenads look like Orpheus' maiden aunts."
At the mention of the ill-fated god, Rees went breathless. He felt slightly sick. The brutal death of Orpheus was now a legend, one made resonant in its horror. The maenads were bad enough, but frighteningly, Ares was worse.
"Ares." Rees shook his head. "He comes here sometimes, badgering warriors into rebirth. I've kicked him out more than once."
"I don't envy you." Calliope gave a delicate shudder. "When he holds a grudge, he holds it close to his heart."
On the screen, the shots faded to a scrolling list accompanied by music. Putting Ares from his mind, Rees studied the names, committing them to memory. Calliope reached around and closed the lid of the machine, and he glared at her. With a final glance at the computer, he followed her to the balcony that looked out over the streets below and leaned forward, resting on his elbows.
Strains of music rose on the sweet air, gently competing with the song of myriad birds as they flitted from tree to tree. Laughter echoed as the residents of the Elysian Fields wandered, serene in their eternal peace. There was no rebirth for Rees' people, no more sadness and pain. They'd learned all they needed from their earthly lives and had chosen to drink the water of memory. They chose Paradise.
Everything was perfect here. Except when Ares came around to muck it all up.
Calliope tilted her head, peering at a handsome man below. "Is that Archilochus the Poet?"
"It is. I was pleased, though puzzled, that he opted to remain here."
His sister laughed merrily. "Given that irreverent poem about abandoning his shield, I'm sure he still has Spartans after his head." Her smile was slow to fade. Clearly she had a fondness for the poet.
"He does tend to stir strong emotion…even here."
"That's your kind way of saying that he pisses people off." She squeezed his arm gently.
If there were reincarnated Spartans after Archilochus, he'd be fairly safe here, though he'd eventually become bored. Warriors and adventurers rarely chose the Elysian Fields. Hercules, Achilles and Jason had all chosen Hades and rebirth. Men and women of passion returned to their rocky human lives, leading Rees to one conclusion—life in Paradise was dull. He had no doubt Archilochus would eventually petition Hades for rebirth.
Rees looked down at the residents of heaven and had an epiphany—he did not belong in the Elysian Fields. Those men and women had struggled and fought for their peace. In all his existence, Rees had faced no decision more difficult than what shade of blue to paint the sky or which turn of phrase most perfectly described the serene beauty of Athena.
And he didn't particularly like Athena.
He sighed heavily. What to do? He'd once approached his aunt Aphrodite about working on Earth with the hunters she employed. That hadn't gone well. Aphrodite had politely considered his request then moved on to visit his mother, leaving Rees feeling rather silly. When she had men like Zagerus the Shadow working for her, what need had she for a second-rate muse?
Rees was an ornament. He was lovely to look at, gifted at entertaining and always said the right words at the right time. His skill with the sword and bow were flawless, though he'd never seen battle. His strategic abilities were legendary…in the chess circles. He knew nothing of the other world, yet he ached to learn, to prove himself.
Barely hearing his sister, he turned and stared behind him, into the rooms where he lived his endless life.
His studio was a vast, airy space peopled with exquisite statuary and colored with paintings and frescoes. Walls were lined with books ranging from truly ancient scrolls to the latest literary offerings from Earth. A large set of double doors opened into a small amphitheater where he lectured.
One wall held his most cherished possessions—a collection of ancient lutes, many too ancient and fragile to play. Not that he'd ever tried. When he held the lute, his usually skilled hands went numb and stupid.
"Calliope." He took her hands in his and leaned in to kiss her soft cheek. Like all his sisters, she was beautiful. Exquisite. After all, the Muses were the inspiration for some of the greatest minds ever to have lived. Their faces graced paintings by great masters, their forms were immortalized in marble. Words describing their beauty danced through the years in verse and song.
He led her to a low chaise, and with a wave of his hand, a tall glass of wine appeared, its surface beaded with chill water. She took the glass and sipped, pleasure brightening her face. They sat quietly, for they'd existed so long in harmony that the siblings simply enjoyed each other's company. He gazed at her in appreciation, taking in the soft golden curls nestling around her face and neck and the gentle brown eyes that were the mirror image of his own.
Those eyes were sad.

First Friday in February
I had an adventure last night, but I lost Internet and couldn't share as it was happening.
First, my sister likes to fry food and will put pans of grease in the oven (!! I know!!) till the oil cools. Which is a fire hazard, so I generally take them out and discard the grease.
Last night, I poured the grease into a container and washed the pan, forgetting to seal the container and take it to the trash. And yes, Levi and Pai Mei had a bacon fat snack. Since Levi is prone to Negritudes and they're both old, I was up worrying about them and their gurgling bellies.(so far, so good)
About eleven o clock I heard all sorts of banging and crashing at the neighbor's house. We live on acreage so I couldn't see what was happening, but I did notice flashlights in the darkness...and then fire near my fenceline. Fire that accelerated very fast. So I hustled my sick dogs back in the house, grabbed a flashlight and marched out there in my pajamas and sweatshirt.
Oh...BTW...they also have a grow out there. So my courageous move was a little stupid.
I got to the fence and there are about ten young people...maybe high school seniors, and they've dumped a truckload of pallets at the back of their property and were building a massive bonfire.
I told them that I was NOT happy about bonfires near my brushy property in the middle of the nigh and made them swear they had a hose. (I doubt they did) Then I marched back to the house and texted a friend with Cal Fire to see if it's legal to have a bonfire in February.
As it turns out, it is and since they were polite and not noisy, I opted not to call the sheriff. Today I will report them for burning treated wood, which is illegal.
So yes, up till the wee hours, checking on the fire and walking sick Siberians.
Who are now fine.

But like anyone, it seems, with an ailment, Woodley went to Arizona to train with James Harrison, Max Starks, Ryan Clark, Stevenson Sylvester and several other members of the current team, and he claims to be as good as new.
Or at least as good as he was during the first half of the 2011 season.
"The ankle just took time to heal," Woodley said. "Throughout the season, when you have a high ankle sprain, you're struggling to push back each and every day in practice. Sometimes you set yourself back in practice and don't even know it, then you try to go out there in a game and you're just not a hundred percent. So what I did before I went to Arizona, I had to just take time. Even when I was out there in Arizona the ankle still was bothering me. It took time to heal."
Woodley was cruising along the 2011 season with 9 sacks in 8 games, and was on a clear path to sack Tom Brady for No. 10 when Woodley went down in the open field as if he'd been shot.
He's only had 4 sacks since that day, due to a combination of injuries, an injury-plagued season by bookend James Harrison, and more dropping into coverage than Woodley could ever remember.
"They pay me to rush so hopefully I'll be rushing and not covering receivers and tight ends down the field," he said of the coming season. "I felt I dropped back a lot in coverage last year, but that's part of the scheme. But I would definitely like to get back to doing more rushing than dropping back in coverage, because my game is predicated on sacks. This defense is predicated on getting after the quarterback, making the quarterback make bad decisions, and allowing our secondary to make plays."
The defense has also been predicated on getting pressure from both outside linebackers. Harrison is gone now, and Jason Worilds will start in his place. Worilds is making his coaches happy with his understanding of the position and performance so far in camp. He'll get help this season from No. 1 draft pick Jarvis Jones, who drew Woodley's praise.
But Jones at times this camp has been blocked rather easily by marginal talents such as Jamie McCoy on Wednesday.
On Monday, Jones impressed with his hands, and his coverage, but didn't show much explosiveness in one-on-one drills. Woodley shrugged that off.
"So what if you hit a (pass-blocking) running back with a lot of contact?" Woodley said. "That doesn't mean you're going to get to the quarterback. It might mean you'll just knock him back. Sometimes the soft touch gets you to the quarterback quicker than the hard stuff."
Woodley would know. He's gotten to the quarterback 63 times, counting playoff games. And after training – and healing – in the dry heat of the desert, he's expecting a few more.
NOTES – Add rookie defensive end Nick Williams to the injury list. He left Wednesday's practice with a knee injury of unknown severity. ... Cornerbacks Cortez Allen and Terry Hawthorne missed practice again with minor knee injuries but could return any day. ... Cornerback DeMarcus Van Dyke, as expected, will miss significant time, according to Tomlin, with his hamstring injury. ... Tight end David Johnson, already on the PUP list, underwent minor knee surgery last Friday and won't be able to return to the field for at least two weeks.

Azarenka avoids upset after slow start at Open
NEW YORK -- Victoria Azarenka needed to win the second set twice. She had plenty left to pull away for a three-set victory at the U.S. Open.
The second-seeded Azarenka took 2 hours, 40 minutes to close out Alize Cornet 6-7 (2), 6-3, 6-2 in the third round Saturday.
Serving on game point at 5-3 in the second, Azarenka pumped her fist and started walking off the court after the 26th-seeded Cornet hit a backhand into the net. The chair umpire had to get her attention to inform her that the line judge had called Azarenka's previous shot out -- replays showed it landed inside the baseline. The umpire overruled the call, but they still had to replay the point.
"Are you freaking kidding me?" Azarenka howled to the chair ump. "What the hell are you doing?"
After the match, she put it this way: "That was the most ridiculous thing there is."
On her second try at set point, Azarenka hit a forehand wide to send the game to deuce. But she won the next two points to clinch the set, after all.
Then she dominated the third to advance to face 13th-seeded Ana Ivanovic, who rallied to beat young American Christina McHale in three sets.
"The dynamic of the match was a little bit weird for me," Azarenka said. "I felt like I didn't take my opportunities in the first set, which was kind of a waste and it gave her a lot of confidence, and she really came up with the great shots when she needed with the big serves."
Rafael Nadal has barely been pushed so far at Flushing Meadows. The second-seeded Spaniard posted his third straight-set victory, beating Ivan Dodig 6-4, 6-3, 6-3.
He'll next face 22nd-seeded Philipp Kohlschreiber, who beat the top American man, John Isner, at this stage for the second straight year. Isner's 6-4, 3-6, 7-5, 7-6 (5) loss means the host country has only one player left in the men's draw. Tim Smyczek, ranked 109th, plays his third-round match against 43rd-ranked Marcel Granollers today.

'Neil Young Trunk Show,' directed by Jonathan Demme, set for theatrical run in March before DVD release
Add one more music film to the must-see list: "Neil Young Trunk Show," the second movie in Jonathan Demme's triptych devoted to the rocker, will get a short theatrical run before going to DVD and Blu-Ray later this year.
Unlike Demme's 2006 film, the largely acoustic "Heart of Gold," "Trunk Show" features Young, captured over two nights in 2007 at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby, Pa., both plugged and unplugged, including a blistering 23-minute version of "No Hidden Path." Bring the earplugs.
The movie played the festival circuit in 2009, including the Toronto International Film Festival and Woodstock (N.Y.) Film Festival. I interviewed Demme about "Trunk Show," which highlights Young via raw footage captured mainly by handheld cameras, for a Variety story last fall. In that piece, he revealed that the DVD will include eight songs not included in the 82-minute theatrical version. "I'm hoping we'll have some great moment in theaters, but I know full well this is a cable and DVD play," he said.
Here's where you can see "Trunk Show." No date has been set for Reprise's DVD/Blu-Ray release.

However, there are many individuals who don't need or want a fountain of youth, and love this time of year when they can show off...that they've still got it! Wednesday will day one of the 15th annual Lewis-Clark Senior Games.
We all know that the Olympics features the greatest athletes around the world. So what happens to those athletes once they get a little older? They participate in the senior games!
"It's an Olympic style athletic event and the Lewis-Clark Senior Games offers thirteen different sports with up to 100 different events," said Senior Games Manager Cathy Robinson.
And what age could people start calling themselves seniors and compete in the games?
"It starts at 50, and then it's in five-year increments and we've had participants all the way up into their 90's," said Robinson.
This week will not only feature the senior games, but also the run for the Sun 5-K Run and Walk on Thursday the 20th. These events are just a few ways to get seniors outdoors.
"It's another way that we can engage our mission of encouraging seniors to keep active in our community," said Director of WA/ID Volunteer Center Barbara Bush.
"The idea is to grow the games and just to get people out there and be active," said Robinson.
Other than staying active, what are the seniors competing for?
"They win medals, just like in the Olympics," said Robinson. "They win bronze, silver, and gold medals, depending on how they place in their age brackets, so we give out a lot of medals."
What really motivates these experienced athletes?
"You're out there doing what our bodies are telling us we can't do but our minds say we still can," said Robinson. Your mind is winning over and you're making your body do it."
And succeed they shall! Get out there and support our wise elders during the 15th Annual Lewis-Clark Senior Games!
The 15th Annual Lewis-Clark Senior Games begins Wednesday at 8 a.m. with target shooting at the Diamondback Shooting Range in Lewiston with various games and events being held throughout the Valley. And don't forget to attend the run for the Sun 5-K Walk and Run on Thursday.
All the events are non-profit with all proceeds going to support senior volunteerism in the Lewis-Clark Valley through the efforts of the Washington-Idaho Volunteer Center.

YOU WOULDN'T think it by looking at her, but Boni Zhang is the kind of kid who someday will move mountains.
She is little and precise, a cerebral seventh-grader at the Folk Arts-Cultural Treasures Charter School, just north of Chinatown, where the focus is on social equality. The focus is not on sports; in fact, after severe budget cuts over the past several years, FACTS has no interscholastic sports programs.
What it does have is initiative, found in powerful, little packages like Boni Zhang.
