Air Power as a Coercive Instrumentby Ian O. Lesser Keith Crane Seth G. Jones Rollie Lal John G. Mcginn Daniel Byman
Coercion--the use of threatened force to induce an adversary to change its behavior--is a critical function of the U.S. military. U.S. forces have recently fought in the Balkans, the Persian Gulf, and the Horn of Africa to compel recalcitrant regimes and warlords to stop repression, abandon weapons programs, permit humanitarian relief, and otherwise modify their actions. Yet despite its overwhelming military might, the United States often fails to coerce successfully. This report examines the phenomenon of coercion and how air power can contribute to its success. Three factors increase the likelihood of successful coercion: (1) the coercer's ability to raise the costs it imposes while denying the adversary the chance to respond (escalation dominance); (2) an ability to block an adversary's military strategy for victory; and (3) an ability to magnify third-party threats, such as internal instability or the danger posed by another enemy. Domestic political concerns (such as casualty sensitivity) and coalition dynamics often constrain coercive operations and impair the achievement of these conditions. Air power can deliver potent and credible threats that foster the above factors while neutralizing adversary counter-coercive moves. When the favorable factors are absent, however, air power--or any other military instrument--will probably fail to coerce. Policymakers' use of coercive air power under inauspicious conditions diminishes the chances of using it elsewhere when the prospects of success would be greater.
Deadly Connections: States that Sponsor Terrorismby Daniel Byman
Daniel Byman's hard-hitting and articulate book is the first to study countries that support terrorist groups. Focusing primarily on sponsors from the Middle East and South Asia, it examines the different types of support that states provide, their motivations, and the impact of such sponsorship. The book also considers regimes that allow terrorists to raise money and recruit without providing active support. The experiences of Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria, Saudi Arabia and Libya are detailed here, alongside the histories of radical groups such as al-Qaida, Hizbullah and Hamas.
The Future Security Environment in the Middle Eastby Nora Bensahel Daniel Byman
This report identifies several important trends that are shaping regional security. It examines traditional security concerns, such as energy security and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, as well as newer challenges posed by political reform, economic reform, civil-military relations, leadership change, and the information revolution. The report concludes by identifying the implications of these trends for U.S. foreign policy.
A High Price: The Triumphs and Failures of Israeli Counterterrorismby Daniel Byman
The product of painstaking research and countless interviews, A High Price offers a nuanced, definitive historical account of Israel's bold but often failed efforts to fight terrorist groups. Beginning with the violent border disputes that emerged after Israel's founding in 1948, Daniel Byman charts the rise of Yasir Arafat's Fatah and leftist groups such as the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine--organizations that ushered in the era of international terrorism epitomized by the 1972 hostage-taking at the Munich Olympics. Byman reveals how Israel fought these groups and others, such as Hamas, in the decades that follow, with particular attention to the grinding and painful struggle during the second intifada. Israel's debacles in Lebanon against groups like the Lebanese Hizballah are examined in-depth, as is the country's problematic response to Jewish terrorist groups that have struck at Arabs and Israelis seeking peace. In surveying Israel's response to terror, the author points to the coups of shadowy Israeli intelligence services, the much-emulated use of defensive measures such as sky marshals on airplanes, and the role of controversial techniques such as targeted killings and the security barrier that separates Israel from Palestinian areas. Equally instructive are the shortcomings that have undermined Israel's counterterrorism goals, including a disregard for long-term planning and a failure to recognize the long-term political repercussions of counterterrorism tactics.
Iran's Security Policy in the Post-Revolutionary Eraby Jerrold D. Green Daniel Byman Shahram Chubin Anoushiravan Ehteshami
Religion, nationalism, ethnicity, economics, and geopolitics all are important in explaining Iran's goals and tactics in its relationship with the outside world, as are the agendas of key security institutions and the ambitions of their leaders. This report assesses Iran's security policy in light of these factors. It examines broad drivers of Iran's security policy, describes important security institutions, explores decisionmaking, and reviews Iran's relations with key countries. The authors conclude that Iraq is widely recognized as the leading threat to Iran's Islamic regime and Afghanistan is seen as an emerging threat. In contrast, Iran has solid, if not necessarily warm, relations with Syria and established working ties to Pakistan and Russia. Iran's policies toward its neighbors are increasingly prudent: It is trying to calm regional tension and end its isolation, although its policies toward Israel and the United States are often an exception to this policy. Iran's security forces, particularly the regular military, are often voices of restraint, preferring shows of force to overactive confrontations. Finally, Iran's security forces generally respect and follow the wishes of Iran's civilian leadership; conducting rogue operations is rare to nonexistent.
Trends in Outside Support for Insurgent Movementsby Bruce Hoffman Peter Chalk Daniel Byman William Rosenau David Brannan
The most useful forms of outside support for an insurgent movement include safe havens, financial support, political backing, and direct military assistance. Because states are able to provide all of these types of assistance, their support has had a profound impact on the effectiveness of many rebel movements since the end of the Cold War. However, state support is no longer the only, or indeed necessarily the most important, game in town. Diasporas have played a particularly important role in sustaining several strong insurgencies. More rarely, refugees, guerrilla groups, or other types of non-state supporters play a significant role in creating or sustaining an insurgency, offering fighters, training, or other forms of assistance. This report assesses post-Cold War trends in external support for insurgent movements. It describes the frequency that states, diasporas, refugees, and other non-state actors back guerrilla movements. It also assesses the motivations of these actors and which types of support matter most. This book concludes by assessing the implications for analysts of insurgent movements.
Understanding Proto-Insurgenciesby Daniel Byman
This study examines how terrorist groups transition to insurgencies and identifies ways to combat proto-insurgents. It describes the steps groups must take to gain the size and capabilities of insurgencies, the role of outside state support, and actions governments can take to prevent potential insurgencies from blossoming. The most effective U.S. counterinsurgency action would be to anticipate the possibility of insurgencies developing; it could then provide training and advisory programs and inhibit outsides support.

The first to be recognized as an essential part of a metalloenzyme (carbonic anhydrase), zinc is the latest—if not the last trace metal implicated in deficiency disorders. Until recently, it was assumed that the abundant presence of zinc in meat, whole grain, legumes, and seafood would ensure the needed daily minimum of less than 5 mg/day for the synthesis of more than 20 enzymes of which zinc is an essential cofactor. This assumption appears to be illfounded.
Not too long ago, a JAMA editorial (228:1669-1670, 1974) called attention to the reported zinc deficiency, associated with the distorted or diminished taste and smell sensations that may occur in the wake of respiratory infections1 or during the course of viral hepatitis.2 Orally administered zinc alleviated the symptoms.
In a review of the broader ramifications of zinc deficiency, such as some gross disturbances of growth and gonadal development reported from the

Yankees beat Blue Jays, Red Sox have chance to clinch AL East on Tuesday
For tonight, the Boston Red Sox can say "thank you" to the New York Yankees.
Despite the Toronto Blue Jays loading the bases with no out in the ninth, the Yankees hold on to beat the Blue Jays, 7-5. The result moves the Red Sox' magic number in the AL East to just one game.
David Price will take the mound for the Red Sox on Tuesday night against those very Yankees with a chance to clinch the division.
They can also clinch the AL East with a Toronto loss to the Baltimore Orioles.
Dee Gordon homers leading off as Marlins mourn Jose Fernandez
Dee Gordon homers leading off as Marlins mourn Jose Fernandez
MIAMI - Dee Gordon hit an emotional homer in Miami's first at-bat following the death of Marlins ace Jose Fernandez in a boating accident.
Leading off the first inning Monday night against the New York Mets, Gordon pulled a 2-0 pitch from Bartolo Colon over the wall in right for his first homer of the season.
Just amazing, @FlashGJr. #JDF16 pic.twitter.com/Tgg03ZSJlt— MLB (@MLB) September 26, 2016
Gordon circled the bases slowly and was crying when he reached home plate. He tapped his chest and waved toward the sky, and then sobbed as teammates hugged him in the dugout.
Gordon took the first pitch batting right-handed, in tribute to the right-handed Fernandez. Gordon then switched to his normal left side.
Fernandez died Sunday morning, prompting the Marlins to cancel their game that day against Atlanta.

Bowling for the last five years, Turner Robins picked up a bowling ball because of his dad, and he hasn't looked back.
"My dad kind of bowled in college and he asked me one day if I wanted to start to bowl and I took up the offer and I've enjoyed it since," said Turner.
That makes sense, based on the fact that he is the first youth bowler in the Valley to notch an 800 series, and that included a 300 game.
"It's a hard goal to accomplish with the high games that you have to be able to bowl," said Turner.
In addition to throwing an 800 series, Turner has other big accomplishments under his belt.
"Me and my dad we qualified to go to a tournament in Louisville, Kentucky two summers ago," said Turner. "Last year I won state for singles and our team got second."
And he does all of this while getting his work done in school.
"I show up on time and get my work done, and just do what the teachers tell me to do," said Turner.
But this lefty doesn't plan on saying goodbye to knocking down pins after high school, he intends to grab a scholarship to college and maybe even continue bowling after the degree.
"My goal is to get to Wichita state and try and get a full ride to there and I would like to go pro with it," said Turner.
Knowing that won't come easy, Turner practices nearly every day in addition to being a part of summer and winter leagues.
"I do the PBA challenge during the summer and then I do the junior majors during the winter," said Turner.
Talent, big goals and the determination to achieve those goals make Lewiston's Turner Robins this week's P1FCU Prep Athlete of the Week.

Historical Traveler Reviews B&W Courtyards New Orleans
Been There Since the Get-Go
We have been staying with Rob and Kevin (hosts) almost since their opening--another B&B was sold out for a particular week-end, they suggested B&W, and we've been going back ever since AND recommending it to everyone we know traveling to NO. The location is fabulous, away from the hustle and bustle of the FQ, yet within walking distance and/or transportation to just about everything.
Rob and Kevin are extremely informed about restaurants, museums, sightseeing--and will go over and above to make sure their guests get the full NO experience.
Next trip I might just sit in the courtyard, sip some wine, read a book, and listen to all of the wonderful water fountains--why leave??!!
If your travel plans include NO, this is definately the place to stay.
THE place to stay in New Orleans
Five time repeat visitor - wouldn't stay anywhere else in New Orleans.
Great location - steps from the Quarter - plush rooms and tucked-away courtyards with dripping fountains. Over an elegant breakfast, catch the gossip and great recommendations on "off the beaten path" restaurants, shopping, and local hotspots from the hosts you'll just have to meet for yourself.
The B&W Courtyards captures the essence of this unique city - a real find.
Great place to stay
What a great place to stay. Lovely surroundings, attention to detail and quiet quarters. The owners seem to know everything about the city, so one does not waste time figuring out details: just let the owners assist you in arranging whatever your needs. I wouldn't think of staying any where else in the city.
What a jewel!
B&W Courtyards is a wonderful spot just far enough from the French Quarter to avoid the crowds and noise, but close enough to walk to everything. Our hosts were warm, friendly and extremely helpful. I stayed in the cozy and charming Back Carriage House with it's bright colors and oh-so-wonderfully comfortable king sized bed. The secluded courtyards with their lush gardens and babbling water fountains were beautifully maintained and a peaceful retreat from the bustle of the city. There was something beautiful to observe around every corner. My colleagues stayed in the suites located just next door, and the decor is just magnificent. I would recommend this oasis to anyone making a trip to New Orleans!
Definitely a Favourite!
Back here in the northland, folks are asking about my vacation, but I find myself dwelling as much on the virtues of this wonderful b&b as I do on the city itself! Rob and Kevin are incredibly gracious hosts, and their b&b felt like home--only better, since I don't eat breakfast in such a beautiful dining room, nor do I have the sounds of fountains floating through the window as I fall asleep. Rob's suggestions were always perfect (just thinking about lunch at Mr. B's makes me hungry) and Kevin is one of the sweetest people I've ever had the pleasure to meet. I'm already figuring out when I can go back, both to the Crescent City and to the B&W!
outstanding in everyway-----terrific folks---wonderful B and B--Both Rob and Kevin have a great sense for the wonderful things in life.
Richie and Nancy
Nice place and great suggestions!!
My husband and I recently visited New Orleans for the first time. We stayed at B&W Courtyards in the Faubourg-Marigny area. Definitely do not be put off by its outward appearance!! It is a very cute and clean B&B located in a very residential neighborhood. Its proximity to the French Quarter was excellent which allowed us to walk pretty much everywhere. Our innkeeper Rob (Kevin was away on family business) was very helpful with eating and activity recommendations. Our favorite place for seafood is GW Fins! Fabulous!!! We also managed to have a dinner at Commander's Palace which was also wonderful. We'd both definitely recommend B&W Courtyards and the city of New Orleans to anyone...
We'll never stay anywhere else.
We have stayed at the B & W Courtyard two years in row and plan on going back. The owners, have always made our stay memorable and wonderful. Great for New Orleans newcomers! They gave us extremely helpful advice and recommendations that were never wrong! Highly recommended!
Cozy and Friendly
We recently had the pleasure of staying at B and W Courtyards. The atmosphere is utterly charming, as were our hosts. I highly recommend this B&B, the cozy environment made our trip so much more relaxing and enjoyable.
Our first visit to New Orleans
We recently stayed at B&W Coutryards in New Orleans. If your idea of heaven during a holiday is to go behind a private facade and see inside, this is the place for you.(Don't be fooled by the outside) When you get inside you will be astonished at the quaint courtyards with water features and the lush plants that are growing in abundance. The rooms scream individuality and are loaded with character. Your hosts will trip over themselves to make sure you are happy and breakfast is served in the elegant surroundings of their dining room, while breakfast is freshly prepared for you in the kitchen. We were newcomers to New Orleans (and only visited the USA once before) but the welcome and care and attention we received at B&W Courtyards made us feel like family.

Call for Papers: ilinx – Vortexes, Streams, Turbulences
About ilinx
ilinx. Berliner Beiträge zur Kulturwissenschaft is a newly founded scientific journal that is to be published annually in the form of thematically focussed issues by Philo Fine Arts. ilinx originates from an initiative of doctoral candidates and postdoctoral researchers in the extended environment of the Institute for Cultural Science of the Humboldt-University in Berlin. It is committed to the generation of critical discourse on current topics of relevance.
ilinx – ancient Greek for whirlpool and whirling – stands for a self-reflexive form of interdisciplinary thinking, in which the investigated material and the employed theory encounter each other as equals. Vortexes form for a short time in places where multiple streams converge. They are local, temporary and mingle heterogeneous elements (theories, material, methods, disciplines, actors, artefacts, times, spaces). Established orders and codes are transformed in the process. Roger Caillois subsumed under the term ilinx all forms of play, "that are based on the desire for inebriation [Rausch] and whose allure resides in their ability to momentarily disrupt the stability of perception [...]". This inebriating and turbulent moment is also suggested by the metaphorical imagery of the whirlpool. Vortexes stir up dust, generate waves, becloud; but they also clarify. They create turbulent force fields – suction, undercurrents, and rapids – in which relationships are destabilised and reorganised. They entrance and entrain; carry off, along, toward, and away.
Vortexes, Streams, Turbulences
The first issue of ilinx – with the thematic focus on "Vortexes, Streams, Turbulences" – looks at configurations of destabilisation, interruption, disruption, inebriation and vertigo as formative moments of culture. Since antiquity these concepts have been credited with the potential for generating knowledge. Plato, for instance, sees the origin of philosophical inquiry in a vertiginous moment that calls the basic principles of knowledge into question. Modern thought also emerges from the experience of a fundamental vertigo, which Descartes assigns not only a methodological function, but an epistemological one as well. His consequential formation of a methodical and linear mode of thought is preceded by the dizziness and the tumble into fathomless depth that the method of radical doubt leads to. This exemplary experience also shows the precarious and dangerous dimension that accompanies the dissolution of an ordered perspective.
Against this backdrop, the first issue of ilinx examines vortexes, streams, and turbulences, in the multiple dimensions of epistemology, the history of science, the lifeworld [Lebenswelt] and cultural techniques.
1. Epistemological questions concern those moments during the production, generation and emergence of knowledge that result from a temporary interruption of rules, order, and normative codes. New knowledge often arises unexpectedly when unintended, irregular, accidental, and allegedly negligible factors disorient systematic research. Hence, the epistemological figure of turbulence is to be discussed here in terms of the following questions: What kinds of vertiginous and fuzzy forms of knowledge production exist? What is the role of the unintended or of the self-dynamic within the course of research? How do these moments in turn account for the emergence of fuzzy objects and epistemic things (Rheinberger)? What role do the accidental and serendipitous play in the formation of knowledge? To what extent do contingency and turbulence constitute the self-organisation of a given system and its dynamics? Does the figure of turbulence allow for the description of fundamental states of the world (order/chaos)? Finally, to what extent does the epistemological dimension of ilinx embody the intersection between thinking and playing?
2. The second section focuses on the history of knowledge concerning physical vortexes, streams and turbulences. This line of inquiry encompasses the discourses, instruments, media, architecture and experimental settings made to investigate and control these phenomena. Their observation and modelling has led to new epistemological dynamics and contingencies, whose performative power has in turn shaped material and symbolic forms of culture. Potential areas of inquiry include vortexes and turbulences within fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and early ether theory, including their knowledge architecture and experimental spaces (water channels, wind tunnels, meteorological networks). Another possible area of inquiry concerns the specific poetics and aesthetics of the vortex, ranging from Edgar Allan Poe's novel "A descent into the Maelstrom" to the streamlined shape of cars, ships and airplanes. Pivotal questions are: Where, how and from what streams do vortexes evolve? Which moments in the history of science and knowledge are geared to the creation, operationalization or control of ilinx? Does the calculation of turbulence and fuzziness, based in probabilities and aimed at prognoses, lead to a generalized "meteorological way of knowing" (Serres)? Is the knowledge of physical currents and vortexes applicable to a "physics of society"?
3. The third focus is on ilinx-phenomena pertaining to the lifeworld [Lebenswelt] and the cultural techniques involved. On the one hand, this section inquires about (non)everyday experiences, which can be described with the figure of the entraining vortex – e.g. the confusing irritation of a fleeting flirt, the seducing encounter with a fetish, the inspiration of a subcultural anomaly, but also the shock of a traumatic accident or the sudden collapse of a socio-economic system. On the other hand, questions should also be raised concerning the practices that have arisen for dealing with turbulence, rush and inebriation [Rausch]. ilinx can be produced through various techniques – e.g. different forms of movement, the violation of established norms or the use of drugs and other media. The cultivation of ilinx-like experiences ranges from childlike spinning-games through religious rituals, sporting events and political personality cults to the thrill of the stock market. Possible areas of investigation within this section are: everyday irritations, social turbulences and extraordinary situations, social experiments and aesthetical self-experiments (Romanticism, Vorticism, Situationism, Beatniks etc.) and cultural techniques of inebriation (dance, festival, play, mass mobilisation). Where and when do phenomena and situations emerge which seduce, decentralize, carry away and destabilize? How is ilinx produced and cultivated, but also problematized and banned? In what ways are vortexes, vertigo and inebriation operationalized in popular, artistic, scientific, and political practices?
Ideally, contributions should attempt to reflect on these figures of turbulence, by configuring material, methods and theories according to the demands of the specific object of investigation. In case of doubt, priority should be given to the appropriateness of the approach, with regards to the problem discussed, over disciplinary traditions.
There are two different forms of texts:
1. Essays of appr. 15 pp. (30.00 – 35.000 characters) related to the topic of the issue. These texts are selected through a peer-review-process and will also be published on the ilinx-homepage, a while after publication of the journal.
2. Short Cuts (short and rather essayistic texts, artistic contributions or presentations of current research projects) not longer than 15.000 characters. Topics are not constricted to the thematic focus of the journal. Experimental uses of text and image are explicitly requested.
Please send your abstract in English or German (not longer than a page) to email@example.com by February 28. The deadline for completed contributions is April 30, 2009.

The geniuses (they pronounce it jeen-yuss-ease) at Mysterious Trousers asked me to help with a promotional banner for the App Store—the editors were set to feature LOOSE PANTS—MysTrou's dead-simple (and beautiful) fitness tracking app.
Everything those guys do has this elegantly-simple aesthetic to it (or "flat" as all the kids call it). The last thing I wanted to do was muck with that.
So I just took the LOOSE PANTS app icon and expanded it into a guy who'd obviously been using the app and looked all mid-century-modern-sexy in his rooster knit tie.
Thanks to Mysterious Trousers for asking me, and @Rob Foster for help getting those hands just right.

Product Description
Exotic Meat lovers, make it your New Year's resolution to try Eland Filet Mignon Steak this year. The tenderloin is the tenderest cut of Eland and is also arguably the most desirable and therefore the most expensive. The average Eland weighs approximately 1200 Lbs. provides no more than 6 to 8 perfect filet mignon steaks. Because the muscle is not weight-bearing, it contains less connective tissue, which makes it tender. Eland meat is 97% lean and Red Meat. Eland Meat is a more healthful and flavorful alternative to the standard boeuf du jour. And the best place in America to get it is from Exotic Meat Markets, USA.
Anshu Pathak says, "Our Elands are FREE ROAMING on a privately owned island in State of Hawaii, USA. There's probably more Omega-3 in Eland Meat than a piece of salmon because it is truly completely grass fed or brush fed meat. They're not eating grain out there. They are the wild antelopes of Hawaii. Hawaii raises the best game because it resembles the Eland's indigenous climate, because the rain and the vegetation are similar."
The gaminess of wild animals comes from the fat, but anyone averse to that flavor will find Exotic Meat Markets meats more palatable. The tropical climate of Hawaii produce leaner and milder-tasting Eland Meat compared with the harsher wintery areas farther north that force these animals to store more fat. Hawaiian Elands are also tenderer because they do not face the same predatory threats on the island.
In 1989, founder Anshu Pathak began purveying wild game as his personal passion in the USA. Now, the Exotic Meat Markets relies on a network of more than 100 different ranches and 100's of trappers throughout USA to harvest animals from about 14 million combined acres.

A Dream Of Togetherness
Author's Note: So, while writing my other story "Silver Lines." I had this really great idea for a Heya story. It starts off in the beginning of shooting Glee's season 4 hence why there might be some spoilers, nothing too big, just pretty much where the characters are set.
I hope you guys like it; if you do let me know so I can keep writing, if you don't then… then just tell me anyway.
I really appreciate reviews; it really is a big part of what keeps me writing so if you're kind enough to leave one after you read this I'll be very grateful!
Enjoy your Heya feels!
Chapter 1. – A Faint Sign.
She buried her face deeper into her pillow, clenching the sheets in her hands and arching her back to try to ease the pain from another day of work; another day of filming, another day of dance numbers and doing playback; she had to admit, though, she wasn't used to having to work so much, or remember so many lines, for that matter. She had gotten used to being in the background, she had gotten used to doing silly moves with her best friend, she had gotten really used to being playful and relaxed…
Now everything felt so… heavy. It was as if nothing was fun anymore, between dancing in the background for a Blaine song and having to playback and act her own songs, nothing seemed the same… Nothing felt the same. Everything was different, so, so different…
She knew what was missing, she knew what was it that made her work not seem like a job, she knew what was it, or more accurately, who was it that made everything seem so easy and fresh. But there was nothing she could do, she had to accept that nothing was ever going to be the same anymore, they barely had any scenes together, and the ones they did seemed too short for her to be able to fully enjoy herself or her company.
Besides, it's not like she cared.
The one person she wanted the most to care didn't really stop to even think twice about her anymore, everything they went through throughout the three years they had known each other didn't seem to matter anymore, it all seemed a thousand miles away, she had to stop and focus on the details to make sure that certain memories actually happened and that it wasn't simply a way of her brain to torture her and create fake memories that haunted her day and night… But unfortunately, no, they weren't fake at all; they were actually very real, too real, but somehow she had lost the grasp on reality when it came to those specific memories.
Heather grunted, sprawling herself even more across her double size bed, now that Taylor had gotten a job back in LA he had moved there again and Heather found herself all alone on a house that had given her such memories, memories of Glee parties, sleepovers, drunken talks and late night cuddles.
None of that seemed real anymore.
By 4:22 am she had completely given up on sleeping, although her body pleaded to get some most needed rest, her mind failed to let her give into the tiredness and she always seemed to find herself laying awake on top of her sheets, sheets that had covered the most beautiful skin she had ever seen or felt in her entire life; caramel skin, that, she imagined, it tasted as delicious as it looked.
Ah, that caramel skin… It smelled like a sweet hot chocolate on a cold winter's night and a pinch of the most playful vanilla. Heather inhaled deeply, trying to regain the scent that she had filled her nostrils with so many times before… but the scent wasn't there anymore. Nor was its owner.
Not anymore.
She shut her eyes and shook her head, forcing herself to stop trying to remember the feeling of that dark hair between her fingers, but the more she tried not to remember, the more her brain begged for her to.
She was so tired of it, so tired thinking about her, so tired of having to sleep alone, so tired of not having her on the set, she was damn tired of fighting with her own brain about it, fighting, telling herself that she's crazy, telling herself that she loves Taylor whole-heartedly, telling herself that Taylor is the right guy for her, telling herself that it's all in her imagination, telling herself that she can't be what she thought she might be…
It was all way too much for her to handle. Or maybe it was to handle on her own that seemed too much.
Maybe all she needed was that caramel skin lying next to her, falling asleep next to her, sharing a bed with her, living a happy life with her.
Heather punched her mattress in frustration and sat up, immediately resting her face on her hands; she definitely couldn't go on like that.
She reached for her phone on her nightstand in the middle of the darkness and pressed the unlock button, the screen shinning a blinding light into her bright blue eyes; she had to half close her eyes to even be able to catch a glimpse of the screen.
She sighed. She definitely had to change her background; that "Fate has laid a hand" image of them had been her background for way too long, and now every time she unlocked her phone it was like a shooting pain that went through her stomach.
Yep, 4:35 am…
She was ashamed to admit to herself that she was actually considering calling her… She knew it was late, she knew she wasn't really going to… but she did want to. She wanted to call her and talk to her for hours, just talk… just talk about them and talk about the past three years, talk about the future, talk about their feelings, talk about why they drifted apart, talk until there was nothing left to talk about talk until both of them got so sleepy they laughed at each other for absolutely nothing at all, talk until there was comfortable silence, just listening to each other breathing, the simple sound of her breathing was enough to comfort Heather.
She just wanted to call her. But she knew she couldn't, she would probably be sleeping with her boyfriend, even possibly having… sex with him. She would wake them both up for nothing, because she had no idea what to say to her, she probably wouldn't even answer the phone, and even if she did was probably to say that it was way too late for her to be calling.
A faint sigh escaped Heather's lips and she locked her phone, defeated. It was the fifth night in a row that she had done that; she always had this rush of courage run through her and she would always pick up her phone, but when it came to actually call her and hearing her voice… she never really plucked up enough courage for that; probably because she didn't know what would come from the other end.
She considered herself lucky, she was cast in a show that turned out to be very successful, her character grew into something she had never expected, she had the pleasure to meet the most wonderful people she had ever met, and she had grown much cherished bonds with several of them… well, with one of them, at least.
Yes, Naya Rivera was someone that Heather could never forget it was as if since she first laid her eyes on her she planted a seed that then grew and roots clenched themselves onto Heather's brain and suddenly everything was Naya and Naya was everything.
Fate has laid a hand…
"You okay over there?" Heather felt a hand tap her shoulder and she abruptly opened her eyes and looked back to find Lea looking at her with her eyes wide open, probably got scared from Heather's jump.
"Lea," She started, trying to calm her heart's fast rhythm. "Yes, I am thank you." She turned forward again and rubbed her very swollen and sensitive eyes, she had probably fallen asleep for a few minutes on her chair.
"Are you sure?" Lea dragged her chair and sat next to the blonde. "You seem very tired."
Heather shrugged her shoulders. "I guess I am."
"Is it only that?" Heather was used to Lea's concern, she had always been there for her and for everyone in the Glee cast, she always seemed to worry about anyone that didn't seem to be in their best moods and she this six sense that always knew when people were lying to her.
"Yes, Lea." Heather smiled, glad that at least Lea still cared about her…
"I know you know I know you're lying." Lea squinted her eyes and took Heather's hand in hers, gently caressing its back.
Heather shook her head, it was way too early and the two hours of sleep that she had gotten was way far from enough for her to be able to understand Lea's language. "What?"
Lea chuckled. "I know something's up with you, you're not the usual cheerful ball of light that you usually are, Hemo."
Heather sighed at the ground and tried to come up with some excuse, but she knew it was pointless lying to Lea. "I just miss her, that's all."
Lea tilted her head to the side and entwined her fingers with Heathers. "Aw, sweetie… I know you do, but unfortunately we don't get to choose what happens to our characters…"
Heather nodded understandingly. "I know, Lea, I know we don't… I was just used to having her around all the time." She started, feeling all of last night's thoughts and wonders resurfacing. "I just… I just don't understand why she doesn't call or text…"
Lea sighed along with her. "Come on, Heather, you guys are best friends. She's just busy with filming, that's all."
Heather forced a smile. "You're right."
"See, now don't you feel better?"
Not at all. "Yeah, I do, thank you, Lea." She lied, but the poor girl was trying her hardest to make her feel better, so might as well pretend that it worked a little bit.
"I have to go get ready." Lea patted Heather's hand before releasing it. "Will you be okay? Or do I have to call Naya to come cheer you up?"
Heather quietly laughed. "I'll be fine, thank you."
"That's the spirit. Why don't you invite your boyfriend over, I'm sure he'll be able to bring a smile to your pretty face."
Heather made an effort not to let her face fall at Lea's words. "I will."
Lea winked at her before walking away to get ready for her scene.
Lea was right, maybe she should call for him to spend a few days with her, maybe that would make her feel better or at least make her forget about Naya… After all, he was one of the reasons why she let them drift apart.
"Heather, Heather!" She heard Lea's high pitched voice call her from behind her and she turned around to face a breathless Lea with big curls on top of her hair. "You will not believe who's here!" Heather's stomach sunk, she couldn't possibly mean… "Naya!"
She felt as if all the air in her lungs froze and she couldn't inhale new air.
"N-Naya?" She stuttered, not really knowing how to react.
"Yes! See, she probably came to see you, you have to come with me!" Lea grabbed Heather's hand and pulled her out of her chair, ignoring the blonde's protests to let her go, Lea practically dragged her along the hallway until they got to the make-up room and Lea busted in the door without even knocking.
"Naya!" She called out, scaring the poor brunette who was peacefully flipping through a vogue magazine and then dropped it at her feet.
"Jesus fucking Christ, Lea, wha-" She instinctively barked before noticing who was on the other end of Lea's arm. "Oh."
"Heather was all gloomy missing you back there; I had to go get her." Heather felt her cheeks turn the brightest shade of red she could possibly think of and she refused to look at the brunette in the eyes who looked even more beautiful than she did before they started filming season four, she was in a black fitted dress with short sleeves a cleavage that showed her beautiful tanned skin.
Of course she looks gorgeous, why wouldn't she… I'm going to kill Lea.
"I have to go but you two should really catch up." Lea said before pushing Heather inside the room and closing the door behind her after she left, leaving the two of them in a very uncomfortable silence, avoiding any possible eye contact.
"Hey." Naya finally said, she tried sounding steady but her voice cracked due to the huge knot she felt in her throat
Heather finally looked up at her and whispered. "Hi." She started nervously fiddling with her fingers. "Sorry about this, Lea just literally dragged me here."
Naya chuckled, trying to hide the fact that she felt a little hurt at Heather's words. "Is it such a torture to see me?" She looked down at her feet with a faint forced smile on her lips.
"No, not at all." Heather managed to breathe out, she studied Naya for a few moments while the brunette tried to make peace with the thought that Heather didn't really want to see her. Naya bent down to pick Vogue up from the floor and then carelessly let it fall on the table to then turn her attention back to Heather who was staring at her with her mouth slightly open.
"I could give you a picture if you'd like." Naya crossed her arms noticing that Heather was blatantly staring at her. "Actually, there are probably a few million of those plastered around the internet." Her words came out more harshly than she had previously intended them to.
Heather furrowed her eyebrows, not really recognizing the girl that was so dear to her. "Sorry." She shoved her hands on her pockets and too two steps back, leaning her back against the door. She could feel anger beaming off of Naya but she didn't quite know why.
"I don't really have much time." Naya informed, avoiding Heather's eyes again.
"Of course you don't." Heather muttered in between deep breaths.
"What did you say?" Naya took three steps closer to Heather leaving them a lot closer than they had been for a few months.
Even though she was quite taller, Heather felt herself shrink to the size of a very dehydrated pea when Naya approached her. "I'm just saying." She started. "You're a big star now."
"Heather, I don't have to listen to your clever remarks." Heather felt her heart break just a little bit more when Naya said that.
The brunette turned her back to Heather to hide the tears that had started to form on the corner of her eyes.
"What is up with you, Naya?" The blonde couldn't help but let her pain show. "You've never talked to me like this." She took two steps closer to Naya regaining the closeness they had before.
"I don't know, it's probably because I'm a big star now, maybe now I can talk anyway I want to." Naya's voice was cracking more than she hoped for; she was visibly hurt with what Heather had said.
The blonde looked at her feet, feeling guilty for hurting Naya, she never wanted to hurt her… but Naya seemed so distant, so protective of her feelings.
Naya suddenly felt two arms wrap themselves around her waist and then a familiar body pressed against her back and she closed her eyes, letting Heather's heat and embrace take over her; the blonde buried her face in Naya's dark hair and inhaled deeply, taking in that heavenly hot chocolate smell that never changed.
Naya couldn't hold it in any longer and she let a single tear make the trip from her eye to her lips and she felt her stomach tremble and her chest rise up and then down quicker than normal, feeling Heather's arms holding her made so many repressed feelings surface, she wasn't made of stone…
"I'm sorry." Heather whispered into her ear, tightening her embrace. "I didn't mean it."
Naya started sobbing but she felt glad that Heather apologized; the last person she wanted thinking that way was Heather…
"I'm sorry too." She managed to slip between sobs.
"Turn around." Heather asked, giving her space to turn. The change of position made Heather and Naya's face much closer than Heather had measured in her head; Naya stopped crying, letting the warm sensation wash over her; she lifted her arms and rested them on Heather's shoulders, leaning in until she rested her forehead on the blonde's.
They both closed their eyes, enjoying the much needed moment that they had only dreamt about for the past few months, it felt so… comforting to have Naya in her arms.
"Look at me." Heather whispered, causing the brunette to connect their gaze. Heather simply shook her head and furrowed her eyebrows, having so much to say but so little courage to… So she tilted her head and went for Naya's juncture between her shoulder and her neck, planting soft kisses there and gently sucking when she got to Naya's pulse point; she made her way up her neck to her ear, then to her cheek where she kissed her for longer than supposed to; that caramel skin did taste as delicious as it looked, she had almost forgotten how Naya's skin felt like against her lips, but then again, she had never kissed Naya the way she was kissing her now.
"Heather." Naya moaned out, starting to feel her knees weaken, but Heather's strong grip around her waist prevented her fall, she didn't know what to think from Heather's actions, or what to do, her brain seemed to go blank and she shut her eyes, simply enjoying the feeling of Heather's soft lips against her skin.
"Mh?" Heather grunted, not wanting to stop what she was doing. She started moving her hands from Naya's waist, sliding them to Naya's lower back and pulling their bodies closer together.
"Heather, don't…" Naya really didn't want to stop what they were doing, but she couldn't let herself be led on again only to have her heart broken to a million pieces, she couldn't go through everything again, to get closer to Heather, to get used to her touch and her presence, she couldn't allow herself to feel everything all over again to then have Heather either back away or simply not move forward… She couldn't handle another disappointment.
Heather ignored Naya's plea and kept trailing kisses on the brunette's neck while her hands travelled up and down her torso.
"Heather, please… just stop." That made Heather back away almost instantly; she had let herself get carried away while Naya obviously wanted to have nothing more to do with her. She broke their physical contact and ran a hand through her lips to try to get rid of the lingering delicious taste of Naya's skin.
She felt embarrassed.
"I'm sorry." She started, her eyes wandering all over the ground. "I shouldn't have done that." She felt deep brown eyes on her but she didn't allow herself to glare back at them, she didn't want Naya to see how embarrassed she felt. "I should go." She turned around and moved towards the door but a grip on her arm stopped her.
"Heather, wait." Naya softly spoke causing Heather to look back at her; the brunette tried to swallow the big lump in her throat away. "I-" Naya had no idea what she was trying to say, all she knew was that she didn't want Heather to leave.
"Yes?" Heather tried, turning her body towards Naya but the brunette didn't seem to have any words to say to her; Heather felt her face drop. Of course Naya doesn't have anything to say to me, I made a fool out of myself. "I have a scene to shoot."
Naya nodded and released the grip on Heather's arms, the blonde left, closing the door behind her and leaving a very confused Naya leaning her back against the door.

As I recall the inflatable module has a multilayer lining to protect from radiation and micro meteors and other stuff. I don't recall fuel tanks having the same concerns. Also the inflatable module used for comparison is a prototype and full size inflatable modules will be substantially larger.
All in all I don't see how a second stage tank will compete.

With all the talk of how these are Tracy McGrady's playoffs, and how he needs to show he can lead a team when it counts the most, something is being lost amid it all.
Yao Ming is on his way to becoming one of the greatest centers of all time. The only thing missing — dominance in the post-season.
So far, so good.
With Monday night's effort, Yao is averaging 27.5-points and 11 rebounds per game thus far in the playoffs. For his career, in three post-season appearances and 14 games, he's averaging 20-points, 8.1 rebounds and two blocks.
Time will tell just where Yao will rank among the greatest of the great — top 10? top 5? — but still just 26-years-old, Yao is well on his way to walking among the giants, literally.
His career regular season scoring average this year improved to 18.5-points, 8.9-rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game. He has improved in virtually every statistical category over his five NBA seasons, going from 13.5 points per game, to 17.5, to 18.3, to 22.3 to 25.0 this year.
As a comparison, here are career points and rebound averages of some of the greatest big men of all time in recent years. Yes, Yao is on his way indeed.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: 24.6 points and 11.2 rebounds.
Shaquille O'Neal: 26.3 points and 11.8 rebounds.
Hakeem Olajuwon: 21.8 points and 11.1 rebounds.
David Robinson: 21.1 points and 11.1 rebounds.
Patrick Ewing: 21.0 points and 9.8 rebounds.
Wilt Chamberlain (30.1 and 22.9) and Bill Russell's (15.1 and 22.5) numbers boggle the mind, particularly rebounding. They will always be the standard-bearers for big men, but they also played in an era when there was virtually no competition in the lane other than each other.
While Yao plays in an era of very few true centers, he also faces many more sleek, tall, fast, inside-out centers (Amare Stoudemire, Kevin Garnett, Dwight Howard) with which many of his predecessors did not have to contend.
Where would you put Yao right now, just five seasons into his career and 26-years-old? I definitely would put him among the ten best ever, or very, very close.
