text: COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL 2 Managing Legal Risks in Early Childhood Programs ARE YOUR DECISIONS "FAIR ENOUGH" OR "NO FAIR!"? Leaders are judged on the fairness of their decisions. Unpopular decisions, if fair, garner respect, albeit grudgingly. Decisions seen as un- fair land you in a bog of discontent. Disgruntled employees or families, like a dog with a sock in its mouth, will shake their heads ferociously all the way to court. We all know what's fair. Or do we? Is it fair to withhold the truth from preschooler Anna's ailing grandmother, while telling Reginald's thicker-skinned father the blunt reality? Is it fair to discipline teacher Ted for being late while excusing Mei Lin for lateness because her rela- tives are visiting? If your answer is: "It depends on the situation and individual circumstances," you are in the majority of early childhood decision makers (Bruno, 2012). If your answer is: "Treat everyone the same way. What's fair for one is fair for all," you are in line with the majority of executives and (56%) of men (Myers et al., 1998). However, in our car- ing profession, you may be seen as "having ice in your veins" and out of touch with people's feelings. If so, you can expect resistance to your decisions. Definitions of fairness differ. To gain a sense of what courts have held to be "fair," let's look into legal history. Definitions of Fairness from a Legal History Perspective To understand what's fair, we need to time-travel to 12th-century England. Imagine you are a judge presiding over the Law Court in the sheep-grazing countryside of feudal England. William, who rents his farmland from a local lord, appears before you, asking that he and his family be permitted to stay on the property. Everyone knows the law: Tenants must pay their rent to the land- lord on time. Failure to pay on time will result in forfeiture of the land. Although William's rent was due on April 15, he paid his rent on April 20. Should he forfeit his property because he knowingly broke the law? What seems fair to you? The judge decided: "Forfeit the property. Quit the land." William had failed to obey the law. Breaking the law led to a clearly stated con- sequence: forfeiture. The judge did not take into account William's personal circumstances. The judge used a logical, "letter-of-the-law" approach consistent with his other decisions: Lawbreakers suffer con- sequences. Everyone could expect the same treatment: "What's fair for one is fair for all." COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL

Great buy! posted on 18/05/2016 by catzcool8
I spent some time trying to find something that would entertain our kittens. I'm so glad that I purchased this. They love it and have hours of fun on it. I was surprised at how sturdy it is, our 2 kittens run up it so fast and chase each other and hang off it! They particularly enjoy the hanging balls! Even my 2 year old daughter has sat on the edge of the first ledge and it remained upright and in one piece! Would definitely recommend this item. Great value for money.

Amjad Farooqi - wanted in connection with two assassination attempts against the Pakistani president, General Pervez Musharraf, and the 2002 murder of the Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl - died in the shootout at a house in the southern town of Nawabshah yesterday. Two or three other men, one of them a cleric, were arrested.
Fayyaz Leghari, the deputy chief of police in Karachi, said security in the city - known as a hotbed of Islamist militants - was on "red alert".
Patrols around foreign consulates and key government offices were being stepped up, with increased numbers of plain clothes officers stationed at high-profile buildings.
Mr Farooqi, a Pakistani who was aged around 32, became one of the most wanted men in the country after security officials in May revealed that he had helped plan two bombings targeting Mr Musharraf near Islamabad in December last year. His alleged accomplice, the Libyan al-Qaida suspect Abu Faraj al-Libbi, remains at large.
In Washington, a US official said intelligence services had been unable to obtain full confirmation that Farooqi had been killed. The US considered him to be "a key al-Qaida figure", according to the official.
Pakistani officials said they were certain the dead man was Farooqi, although DNA tests to confirm identity had yet to be completed.
He was believed to have been an associate of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the reputed al-Qaida number three who was captured in Pakistan last year.
Pakistan has sought to boost its credentials as a key US ally in the fight against al-Qaida over recent months.
The government said it had arrested more than 70 terror suspects since mid-July, including an alleged Pakistani computer expert for al-Qaida and a Tanzanian wanted for the US embassy bombings in east Africa in 1998.
Officials have hailed Farooqi's killing as another breakthrough, and police said information gleaned from the suspects captured in yesterday's raid had led to the arrest of another Islamist militant early today.
Officials have yet to formally identify the suspects arrested in the raid, but said they were all Pakistanis.
An intelligence official in Nawabshah, speaking on condition of anonymity, named one as Abdul Rehman, whom he said was a teacher at a local Islamic seminary and had rented the house for Farooqi two months ago.
Another intelligence official named a second suspect as Yaqoob Farooqi. It was unclear whether he was related to the dead man.
Authorities also seized a laptop computer, CDs, militant literature, some grenades, a wire-cutter and several photos from the house, the intelligence source in Nawabshah said. He did not disclose who was in the pictures.

When you decide to have crowns done, especially if they involve your front teeth, you will want to be able to give your input regarding how the final crowns will look. One way to do this is with temporary dental crowns. When your teeth are prepared for crowns, the dentist will place temporary dental crowns for you to wear while the final crowns are being made.
There are some differences between temporary dental crowns and final crowns that you should be aware of. Temporary dental crowns are made of a different material, usually some sort of a plastic or acrylic. Since these materials are not as strong as your own teeth, you will have to be careful of what you eat. You should avoid hard foods such as nuts, and tough foods such as bagels or French bread.
Another difference is that temporary dental crowns are cemented on with a dental cement. The reason for this is that the cosmetic dentist will need to be able to remove the temporary dental crowns when it is time to cement the permanent ones. Since the cement is not as strong, sticky foods may cause them to come loose.
If your temporary dental crowns come off or are loose, you should call your dentist so that they can be re-cemented. It is important not to wait, as the tooth may be sensitive, it may move, or, if a long enough period of time passes, the tooth may get decay. As far as home care, your temporary dental crowns should be cleaned with a toothbrush, just like your own teeth. When flossing, though, it is important to floss towards the gums and then slide the floss out by one end rather than lifting it back up through the teeth. This will help ensure that your temporary dental crowns do not come off while flossing.

Advanced dental techniques now provide consumers with exciting, new options for enhancing their smiles. Revolutionary methods are now available for teeth bleaching to make smiles sparkle!
Teeth bleaching or tooth whitening lightens the color of teeth whether darkened from age, coffee, tea or tobacco. Its brightening effects can last up to five years after the treatment depending on your personal habits.
Tooth bleaching has a higher than 90% success rate. It is tough on stains but gentle on your teeth! Results vary depending on whether or not your teeth are stained from smoking, from taking certain medications such as tetracycline during tooth development, or from fluorosis, a condition occurring when too much fluoride is used.
Teeth Bleaching will not lighten fillings or artificial materials used in dental repair such as dental crowns, porcelain veneers, etc. Your dentist may discourage treatment if you have sensitive teeth, periodontal disease, teeth with worn enamel or if you are pregnant or breast-feeding.
Some teeth bleaching treatments are performed in the dental office using an in-office tooth bleaching system, such as laser bleaching. This method lightens teeth instantly.
The same results may be obtained more economically through dentist-supervised, at-home teeth bleaching, but takes longer to achieve. Some tooth bleaching systems, which bleach your teeth while you sleep, work in 10 to 14 days (or more accurately nights)! Others bleach your teeth from two to four hours a day requiring three to six weeks to complete.
It's important to know that certain types of stains respond better to different types of teeth whitening materials. In such cases, your dentist may recommend one method over another.
Research over the last five years has proven tooth whitening products to be both safe and effective. The American Dental Association's seal of approval has been given to a wide range of teeth bleaching products. Generally, the only side effect from treatment may be some sensitivity to hot and cold foods. If this occurs, sensitivity normally disappears within 48 hours.

Many home based business opportunities are actually Network Marketing companies (aka MLM). Often they are marketed as 'independent businesses'. Such terms as 'independent distributor' and 'independent business owner' (IBO) are actually used in many network marketing organizations. But are they really independent home businesses?
For one thing, network marketing companies restrict independence by policy. In most network marketing companies there are policies in place that restrict how the individual can market the business, promote the opportunity, and price the products — among other things.
There is also the issue of what happens if the network marketing company folds due to legal action, financial problems or other issues? While the individual can contribute to the overall success of the network marketing company, some things will be out of the individual's control. It's not like the individual can go on selling the product or service after the company has folded is it?
So these and possibly other issues keep Network Marketing companies from being truly independent home based businesses. Having said that, the best Network Marketing companies will provide a reasonable framework to have some independent choices in your business.

West Africa (British) 1/10, 1/2, and 1 Penny 1907 to 1958
Most of the states of the northern and western region of Africa are now free independent nations i.e., Benin, Senegai, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Togo, Niger, Guinea-Bissau, but until recently much of the region was under French and British rule. These holed coins circulated in the British colonies of Gambia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, and Gold Coast (Ghana). They all carry the six-sided (hexagram) star, a crown, and the name of the British Monarch. Some were minted in aluminum, some in copper-nickel, and bronze. The denominations, one-tenth, one-half, and one penny, are clearly marked on the coins.

Free: 10 Things the Best Law-Firm Website Designs Have in Common
For seven years, Lawyerist has published an annual list of the best law firm websites. Now, you can find out what they have in common.
I love legal blogs as a marketing tool and a way to increase the visibility of your firm. There are plenty of ways to keep your blog strong, and one of them is to make it more user friendly.
Add a FAQ section
Your top five questions could simply be five questions that potential clients ask all the time. For example, question one could address free consultations versus free case evaluations. If clients continually ask about a law, or a legal process, you can link to a post you wrote on the law and procedure.
Just because answers to frequently asked questions are within your blog, that does not mean clients can easily find them. Creating a FAQ can change that.
Make it easy for clients to call you
You can add a plugin that allows visitors to your site to click their mouse to get you on the phone. Installing this plugin, however, is a double-edged sword. You may get deluged with calls. Or, you might receive phone calls from people that turn into clients that previously would not have called. At a minimum, it is worth experimenting for a month to see what the result are.
Make your contact form interact with your client relationship management software
You can also install a plugin that interacts with your client management software (CRM). When a visitors fills out the contact form, it will automatically convert it into whatever CRM format you use. That can make tracking potential clients that much easier, and make your intake process more efficient.

CEDRIC STOKES A/K/A ABDUS SALAAM MUHAMMED, APPELLANTv.UNITED STATES PAROLE COMMISSION, APPELLEE
Appeals from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia (No. 00cv03075)
Before: Ginsburg, Chief Judge, and Randolph and
Roberts, Circuit Judges.
Argued December 8, 2003
Cedric Stokes challenges the district court's denial of his habeas corpus petition, brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. In his petition Stokes claimed the United States Parole Commission violated the Ex Post Facto Clause of the Constitution of the United States by denying him parole and determining his parole rehearing date on the basis of regulations and guidelines promulgated after the crimes of which he was convicted. On appeal, another panel of this Court concluded the district court lacked jurisdiction over the proper respondent. When Stokes petitioned for rehearing, however, that panel vacated its earlier decision. For the following reasons, we reverse the judgment of the district court insofar as it purported to exercise jurisdiction over Stokes's petition, and remand this case with directions to dismiss his petition without prejudice.
I. Background
In 1987 Stokes was convicted in District of Columbia Superior Court of various violations of the D.C. Code. He was sentenced to consecutive prison terms of 10-30 and of 8- 24 years and to a term of 2-6 years to be served concurrently.
Since August 2000 the United States Parole Commission has been responsible for making parole determinations with respect to District of Columbia prisoners. See D.C. Code § 24-131(a)(1); National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government Improvement Act of 1997 § 11231, Pub. L. 105-33, 111 Stat. 712; Fletcher v. District of Columbia et al., 370 F.3d 1223, (D.C. Cir. 2004). In October 2000 the Commission denied Stokes parole and put off any rehearing for 48 months. Each decision represented a departure from the Commission's guidelines adverse to Stokes.
Under those guidelines a prisoner with Stokes's "Base Point Score" is ordinarily paroled; if such a prisoner is denied parole, then the guidelines recommend he be given a rehearing in 12-18 months. The Commission explained that it departed from the guidelines because it believed Stokes posed an "unusual risk to the safety of the community." The Commission noted in this regard that Stokes was sentenced for his "involvement in 3 separate assaults with a deadly weapon over a period of 7 months," including an incident during which he "brutally beat the victim in his head with a shovel, causing serious bodily injury."
Stokes, who is now in a federal facility in South Carolina but was then incarcerated in a private prison in Ohio, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. In his habeas petition he argued the application to him of the Commission's parole guidelines violated the Ex Post Facto Clause because the guidelines were promulgated by the Commission and made applicable to D.C. Code offenders after the conduct for which he was incarcerated. The Commission opposed Stokes's petition, arguing, among other things, that the district court lacked personal jurisdiction over the only proper respondent -- the warden of the Northeast Ohio Correctional Center -- and, in any event, the Ex Post Facto claim lacked merit.
After a procedural detour of no concern here, the district court ultimately denied Stokes's petition because he had not shown "application of the Parole Commission's regulations `yields results materially harsher than those ordinarily occurring under the prior regime.' " Dist. Ct. Mem. Op. at 3, citing Blair-Bey v. Quick, 159 F.3d 591, 592 (D.C. Cir. 1998). The district court granted a certificate of appealability, however, because "the precise application of the Constitution's prohibition against ex post facto laws to Parole Commission regulations" was then still unresolved in this circuit.*fn1
On appeal, a different panel of this Court held the district court lacked jurisdiction over the warden of the Ohio facility in which Stokes was incarcerated; his petition should therefore have been dismissed. The court also noted Stokes could refile his claim in a judicial district with jurisdiction over the warden of the Ohio correctional center. Upon Stokes's petition for rehearing, we vacated that judgment and invited the District of Columbia to participate as an amicus curiae. The District of Columbia is of the view that the district court had jurisdiction over Stokes's habeas petition but takes no position on the merits of the claims presented therein.
II. Analysis
District courts may grant habeas relief only "within their respective jurisdictions." 28 U.S.C. § 2241(a). Because "[a] writ of habeas corpus does not act upon the prisoner who seeks relief, but upon the person who holds him in ... custody," Braden v. 30th Judicial Cir. Ct. of Ky., 410 U.S. 484, 494 (1973), a court may issue the writ only if it has jurisdiction over that person. See Padilla v. Rumsfeld, 2004 WL 1432135, at *5, *9, 542 U.S., (June 28, 2004).
As an initial matter, it is clear the only proper respondent to Stokes's habeas petition was his "immediate custodian" --that is, the warden of the Ohio facility in which he was incarcerated at the time he filed the petition. See Padilla, 2004 WL 1432135, at *5, 542 U.S. at; see also Blair-Bey v. Quick, 151 F.3d 1036, 1039 (D.C. Cir. 1998) ("When a prisoner seeks to challenge parole-related decisions, the warden of the prison ... is the prisoner's `custodian' "); Chatman-Bey v. Thornburgh, 864 F.2d 804, 810-11 (D.C. Cir. 1988) (en banc) ("proper defendant in federal habeas cases is the warden" of the facility where prisoner is incarcerated).
Citing Braden v. 30th Judicial District of Kentucky, 410 U.S. 484 (1973), Strait v. Laird, 406 U.S. 341 (1972), and Ex Parte Mitsuye Endo, 323 U.S. 283 (1944), Stokes argues the "immediate custodian" rule is a "policy rule[ ]," rather than a "hard and fast limitation[ ] drawn from the plain language of the applicable habeas statutes." If this theory was once viable, it clearly is not after Padilla.
"In Braden and Strait," the Padilla Court explained, "the immediate custodian rule did not apply because there was no immediate physical custodian with respect to the `custody' being challenged." Padilla, 2004 WL 1432135, at *6, 542 U.S. at (emphasis in original). Here there was: At the time Stokes filed his petition, the warden of the Ohio facility "exercise[d] day-to-day control," id., over Stokes. The immediate custodian rule therefore applies in this case. See id.; accord Guerra v. Meese, 786 F.2d 414, 416 (D.C. Cir. 1986) ("The Braden decision in no way stands for the proposition that the Parole Commission is the `custodian' of a prisoner currently incarcerated in a federal penal institution").
Endo is equally unhelpful to Stokes's cause. Endo, a Japanese-American citizen of the United States interned in California by the War Relocation Authority (WRA), brought a habeas petition in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, naming an official of the WRA as the respondent. While Endo's petition was pending before that court, the Government moved her to Utah. The Supreme Court held the Northern District of California retained jurisdiction over the habeas petition, notwithstanding that the prisoner -- and hence her immediate custodian --was now in Utah. See 323 U.S. at 306 ("the removal [of the prisoner] did not cause [the District Court] to lose jurisdiction where a person in whose custody she is remains within the district").
Endo did not, as Stokes maintains, "relax" the immediate custodian rule but rather recognized the continuing jurisdiction of the court in which that rule is first satisfied. As the Supreme Court recently explained:
Endo stands for the important but limited proposition that when the Government moves a habeas petitioner after she properly files a petition naming her immediate custodian, the District Court retains jurisdiction and may direct the writ to any respondent within its jurisdiction who has legal authority to effectuate the prisoner's release.
Padilla, 2004 WL 1432135, at *8, 542 U.S. at.
Thus, if Stokes had filed his petition in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, naming the Ohio warden as the respondent, then under Endo that court would have retained jurisdiction over his petition notwithstanding Stokes's later transfer to the federal penitentiary in South Carolina where he is now incarcerated. Instead, Stokes filed his petition in the District Court for the District of Columbia. Because Stokes was already in Ohio when he filed, that court never acquired jurisdiction over his petition. That Stokes had been arrested and convicted in D.C. in 1987 and that he served a portion of his prison term in a D.C. correctional facility are of no moment under the immediate custodian rule. See Padilla, 2004 WL 1432135, at *8, 542 U.S. at.
In sum, the warden of the Northeast Ohio Correctional Center is the only proper respondent to the petition before us.*fn2
It is equally clear the district court did not have jurisdiction over the warden of the Northeast Ohio Correctional Center. Relying again upon the Supreme Court's decisions in Braden v. 30th Judicial District of Kentucky, 410 U.S. 484 (1973), and Strait v. Laird, 406 U.S. 341 (1972), Stokes and the amicus assert the Supreme Court "has abandoned an `inflexible jurisdictional rule' " based upon the territorial jurisdiction of the district court, "in favor of explicit reliance on modern principles of personal jurisdiction and service of process."
The Supreme Court's recent opinion in Padilla unequivocally rejected that theory as well. Concluding that the limiting language in the habeas statute -- "within their respective jurisdictions," 28 U.S.C. § 2241(a) -- means a district court may issue the writ only to one who is within its district, the Court held that in habeas cases involving "present physical confinement, jurisdiction lies in only one district: the district of confinement." Padilla, 2004 WL 1432135, at *10, 542 U.S. at. This is necessarily so because in such cases "the immediate custodian and the prisoner reside in the same district." Id. at *11. Therefore, a district court may not entertain a habeas petition involving present physical custody unless the respondent custodian is within its territorial jurisdiction. Guerra, 786 F.2d at 417. Dicta to the contrary in the course of our en banc disposition of Chatman-Bey v. Thornburgh, therefore, have been overtaken by Padilla. See 864 F.2d at 813.
III. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the district court purporting to deny Stokes's petition on the merits is reversed for want of jurisdiction, and this matter is remanded to the district court so that it may dismiss the petition without prejudice.
So ordered.

Barneys on sale
Fashion retailer Jones Apparel is set to sell storied emporium Barneys to a private equity firm for twice as much as it paid three years ago.
Jones Apparel is hammering out a deal to sell Barneys to Dubai-based investment firm Istithmar for around $800m (€595m), according to a report in the New York Times. Jones bought Barneys in 2004 for around $400m.
Jones owns mid-price clothing brands like Anne Klein, Jones New York and Nine West. Barneys, whose flagship store sits on a tony stretch of New York's Madison Avenue, sells clothing from high-end designers and jeans with price tags of $200 and up.
Jones Apparel hired Goldman Sachs in March 2006 to seek a sale of the entire company. The retailer reportedly came close to a $4.3bn deal with TPG and Bain Capital a few months later, but decided the price was not satisfactory and canceled the auction.
US clothing retail deals have been picking up speed, though they are less common than other kinds of retail sales. There have been 20 major deals valued at $6.4bn across the retail apparel and shoes sector since January 2006, according to Dealogic. The largest such deal came earlier this week when sports clothing chain Finish Line bought rival Genesco for $1.5bn. Just a few weeks ago, discount shoe company Payless ShoeSource offered $806.2m for Stride Rite.
Istithmar is planning a $4bn (€3.2bn) spending spree this year, 60% more than it contributed to investments last year. Dubai's government has spent more than $12.5bn on foreign assets this year, including UK ports operator P&O which it acquired for $6.8bn. Istithmar is also one of the backers of Joseph Perella's new boutique investment bank, Perella Weinberg.
Acquisitions of US companies jumped 46% in volume this year to date compared to last year, according to Dealogic. There have been 4,354 acquisitions of US companies this year, totaling $1.1 trillion in deal values. Last year at the same time, there were only $747.9bn in such deals.

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, RESPONDENT,v.JAMES HUBEL, APPELLANT.
Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, Erie County (John L. Michalski, A.J.), entered November 20, 2008. The order determined that defendant is a level three risk pursuant to the Sex Offender Registration Act.
As corrected through Wednesday, March 31, 2010
It is hereby ordered that the order so appealed from is unanimously reversed on the law without costs and the matter is remitted to Supreme Court, Erie County, for further proceedings in accordance with the following memorandum: Defendant appeals from an order determining that he is a level three risk pursuant to the Sex Offender Registration Act (Correction Law § 168 et seq.). Contrary to defendant's contention, we conclude that Supreme Court properly assessed 25 points against defendant under the risk factor for sexual contact with the victim. The People met their burden of establishing by clear and convincing evidence that defendant engaged in deviate sexual intercourse, i.e., oral sexual contact (see § 168-n [3]; Sex Offender Registration Act: Risk Assessment Guidelines and Commentary, at 8 [Nov. 1997]). We reject defendant's contention that the court erred in relying upon the facts set forth in the case summary in assessing points under that risk factor. It is well settled that "[t]he case summary constitutes reliable hearsay, which is properly considered by the court in determining a defendant's risk level" (People v Sanney, 56 AD3d 1220, 1220 [2008]; see People v Vaughn, 26 AD3d 776, 777 [2006]). Although "the case summary alone is not sufficient to satisfy the People's burden of proving the risk level assessment by clear and convincing evidence where . . . defendant contested the factual allegations related to [the] risk factor" in question (People v Judson, 50 AD3d 1242, 1243 [2008]), here, defendant did not challenge the allegations of oral sexual contact contained in the case summary. Rather, defendant contended only that the accusatory instruments did not include any allegations of oral sexual contact and that he was not convicted of sodomy. In assessing defendant's risk level, however, the court is "not limited to the crime of conviction" but may also properly consider, inter alia, the victim's statements (Risk Assessment Guidelines and Commentary, at 5).
We agree with defendant, however, that the court failed to comply with Correction Law § 168-n (3), pursuant to which the court was required to set forth the findings of fact and conclusions of law upon which it based its decision to grant the People's request for an upward departure to a level three risk. Here, in its decision the court merely recited in conclusory fashion that it reviewed all the relevant information presented by the parties and accepted the findings contained in the risk assessment instrument and the case summary, and that recitation was insufficient to fulfill the statutory mandate (see People v Cullen, 53 AD3d 1105 [2008]). Inasmuch as the court's failure to set forth the findings of fact and conclusions of law upon which the court based its decision "preclud[es] meaningful appellate review of the propriety of the court's risk level assessment" (People v Miranda, 24 AD3d 909, 911 [2005]; see People v Sanchez, 20 AD3d 693, 695 [2005]), we reverse the order and remit the matter to Supreme Court for compliance with the statute (see People v Smith, 11 NY3d 797 [2008]).

Itachi stared at the river listlessly. It had been five years since he had first arrived in the Soul Society. So much had happened in that short amount of time. He closed his eyes, venturing back into his memories to find the exact moment where everything changed.
It was the hunger.
Getting hungry in a world where one is not supposed to get hungry. Miss Megumi nearly had a heart attack when he had suddenly collapsed one day while they were searching for herbs for Megumi to sell. He still remembered the earful he had received from the frail woman about making her worry. She then explained that the hunger meant he had high spirit energy, which meant that he could potentially become a Soul Reaper one day. Itachi vehemently opposed the very idea; he was through with fighting and wanted to lead at least a somewhat peaceful life. Since that day, most of Megumi's earnings were used to buy food so Itachi wouldn't die—again—of starvation.
It wasn't long after that when the woman died. She had explained that when souls died, they were supposedly reincarnated into the World of the Living. He couldn't remember how much he stared at the small shack she owned. Death was fleeting and unexpected. Once it happens, it seems unreal. The ones you care for vanish, like a dream upon waking.
Itachi had fended for himself from then on. Living in Inuzuri was tough. One often had to resort to theft and trickery to get what they needed. Although his days as a shinobi had long passed, his body retained its experience from that time. He often found himself wandering the streets of Inuzuri aimlessly, pick-pocketing those who were too stupid to notice. It was one day after another; the same senseless struggle to survive in the dump that was District seventy-eight.
Itachi exhaled as he opened his eyes. Judging from the sun's position in the sky and the stiffness of his legs, he had been standing in the same position for hours. The Uchiha readjusted his dark grey kimono sleeves and began walking toward the market street. It was his daily chore to steal food or money and he hated it with a passion. It made him feel pitiful. As he walked, he kept his eyes open for potential victims who could—
Itachi blinked. He then rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
Lying in the middle of the street was a boy. His bright red hair contrasted greatly with the rest of his surroundings, which made it difficult to not notice him. The child was lying face down in the dirt, unmoving and only the slight movement of his torso was the only indication that he was still alive. Itachi's long-repressed "big brother" instincts were screaming at him to do something and help the child. He rushed up to the kid, turning him over on his back and examining him. He was skinny from malnourishment and dirt was smudged over every visible inch of his body. The child's expression was twisted, hurting from exhaustion and hunger. He looked no older than six.
Itachi was greatly reminded of Sasuke. This was a child. He shouldn't be lowered to thieving and running around in the dirt to survive. He should have a family to take care of him; to love him and to be companions to him. Yet, fate was determined to be cruel to children like Sasuke no matter where they grew up. Forced to grow up to survive, destroying their innocence with the reality of life. That was no way to live.
Itachi took the child into his arms. He would not allow that to happen again. Never. He had destroyed Sasuke's childhood because of the actions of the Uchiha clan as well as the orders from Danzo. Here in Inuzuri, there was nothing that held him back. There were no elders to order him around and no rules that needed to be followed. There was no one stopping him from helping this child other than himself.
As Itachi made his way back to his "home", he began pondering his decision. The question was whether or not he could take care of the child and if the kid even wanted to be looked after. He was having enough trouble trying to survive on his own. With his decently high—and steadily growing—spirit energy, Itachi had to steal food almost daily just to keep up his strength for the week. Add a kid onto that and Itachi would have to use more drastic measures—measures he did not want to resort to—to get the supplies he needed. He shook his head. If things did happen that way, let them. He was capable of killing if need be, but only in self-defense or if he had no choice.
He soon arrived at his small shack that he took ownership of once Megumi passed. He laid the small child on the rugged futon, covering him up with a blanket so he could rest. Itachi then went to get some food he had stored away for himself whenever he got hungry. Taking some bread and some taiyaki, he went back to the unconscious child. Itachi closed his eyes before reopening them, his irises scarlet red instead of coal black.
He was still able to use his Sharingan and all the jutsus he had learned when he was alive. Although his body was technically a soul and made up of spirit energy now, it was still a physical body and he could still move and work his bodily functions. As such, he was still able to access the physical energy that was required when controlling chakra. Deeming it as an unexpected addition to his high spirit energy, he decided to practice with his jutsus every now and then so he wouldn't get rusty should he ever need to use them. In a similar manner to seeing chakra, he discovered that the Sharingan could gauge the spirit energy of the individuals around him. What he saw in the child startled him.
The boy had a chakra system. Not once in the five years Itachi had spent in Inuzuri had he seen anyone else like him where the individual had any sort of chakra flow. Not until today, that is. The flow was steady, which indicated that the system was matured and available for use to the user. Whether if the kid had known that he could manipulate chakra or not remained to be seen. Perhaps before he died, the boy was training to become a shinobi. That was the most logical explanation.
Itachi also noticed that the redhead's spirit energy was low due to constant hunger, but he could see that his reserves were capable of being high despite being so young. With proper nourishment and training, he could potentially become a Soul Reaper one day.
Itachi inwardly scoffed. The residents of Rukongai praised the Soul Reapers highly and they rightly deserved the title "death gods" due to the dangerous work that they performed. But anytime he saw one in Inuzuri, he felt nothing but contempt for them. The Soul Reapers he saw abused their power and they took unfair advantage over the poor residents who were struggling to get by. As much as he wanted to interfere when a situation like that came up, he bottled his emotions in and put a tight cork on them. It wasn't his business and he did not need to draw attention to himself when he was attempting to live a peaceful life.
Deactivating his Sharingan, Itachi knelt down and lightly tapped the boy's cheek with his hand. The kid's face contorted for a few seconds before stirring from his dreamless sleep. The boy opened his eyes, revealing bright chocolate brown irises. They zeroed in on Itachi, instantly narrowing in contempt.
"The hell are you?" the redhead grumbled.
"Just a fellow resident of Inuzuri," Itachi answered blankly. "You were laying half-dead in the middle of the market street."
"The hell are we?"
"My home."
"…Is that taiyaki!?" the redhead's mood suddenly brightened as he saw the fish-shaped cake in Itachi's hand.
"YAY!" he shouted, snatching the taiyaki out of Itachi's hand faster than Kakashi-senpai when buying a new Icha Icha book from the bookstore. Itachi blinked as a dotted outline of where the cake once was in his hand flashed a few times before disappearing. He then redirected his gaze to the child, whose mouth was dripping with bean paste.
"…I see you like taiyaki," Itachi stated as a small sweatdrop ran down his head at the redhead's sudden about-face. He hadn't seen a child devour something so fast in a long time; not since his early teens during the occasional ANBU protection missions for Naruto. When he first witnessed Naruto consume five bowels of ramen in a row—and the blonde was still itching for more afterwards!—he felt his jaw drop behind his ANBU mask. He knew Naruto had inherited Kushina-san's love for the food, but Itachi had no idea how he could eat that much of it and not get sick, "food of the gods" or not.
"Hell yeah I do! It's my favorite!" the redhead said, bringing Itachi out of his thoughts. The child was licking the residue from his fingers and the sides of his mouth.
"I see," the ex-shinobi said. "Tell me, little one; how did you end up in such a state in the middle of the road?"
"Hey! I ain't little, bastard!" the kid snapped angrily. "Don'tcha know who you're talking to, geezer!?"
"A child throwing a temper tantrum," Itachi answered bluntly, deadpanning at the outburst. The redhead ignored his statement.
"I'm Renji Abarai, ya old goat!" the child shouted, pointing a finger in Itachi's face. "I'm gonna be a Soul Reaper one day and I'll kick your ass if you treat me like a scum!"
"Renji Abarai, is it?"
"Yeah, Wrinkles. Remember it!"
Itachi smirked lightly. "Don't worry. I will."
Renji was about to retort, but he instead did a double-take. "Wait, what?"
"I told you I would remember your name. Or did you not truly mean what you said?"
"No! I mean it! It's just…" Renji paused to cross his arms. "You asshole grown-ups never cared much about who I was before. Why should I expect anything different from you, Wrinkles?"
Itachi poked Renji's forehead with his middle and index fingers. "Let me tell you this important life lesson, Renji, and take it to heart. Appearances and preconceptions aren't going to tell you anything about a person. For example, you assume I am like every other miserable wretch that you have met in this District. I'm not."
Renji irritably rubbed the sore spot on his forehead, pouting while he did so. "Why'd you poke me?"
Itachi remained quiet, frowning a bit. Renji greatly reminded him of Sasuke, despite the obvious differences in personality. Something he realized when he arrived in the Soul Society was that his memories were slowly disappearing. His time in Akatsuki was practically nonexistent and the faces of friends and family he once knew were gradually becoming foggy. If there was one person he wished to never forget, it would be his younger brother. He would do what he could to cling to those precious memories. The memories of his time alive were the only things that kept him company through the years. It was cruel in a way. Memories were basically the only things of personal value a soul could bring to the Soul Society; to take those away would be similar to taking away one's very identity.
Itachi placed his façade back up, smiling at the child. "Let's just say you remind me of someone."
"You're a weird ass grown-up," Renji bluntly stated. "But I guess it's a good weird. Any other grown-ups would've tossed me out into the street by now."
"Yeah. I don't like being treated like a stray dog, but them assholes do it anyway just 'cause I'm a kid living alone!" Renji snapped. "I'm gonna show 'em all! I'm gonna be a Soul Reaper one day and I'll shove my sword in their faces when I'm livin' in the Seireitei!"
Itachi sighed. "Renji. Getting revenge won't solve anything."
"What would you know, geezer!? You don't know nothing!"
"I know more than you think I do," Itachi said, his eyes sharp as they remained focused on the redhead. "I hurt a number of people when I was alive. In response, those people wanted to do anything to hurt me. In return to that hatred, my family would want to reciprocate that hurt. Tell me Renji; what would happen next if my family returned that hatred?"
"The other family would get mad?"
"And then what?"
"It would…continue?"
"Exactly," Itachi explained. "A cycle of hatred is born and numerous people would get hurt, both the ones who were involved in that cycle and those who were innocent in the whole matter. Do you want to begin such a cycle, Renji? I highly doubt that you do."
"No…" the child mumbled guiltily. "I'm sorry…"
"What are you sorry for? You are still young; you've been forced to grow up in an unsightly place where hatred is easily bred. It's only natural for you to feel loathing towards those who have wronged you. There's no need to be sorry."
"You really are different from other grown-ups, aren't you, Mister?"
"First it was Wrinkles, then it was geezer, and now it's Mister? Why the sudden change in formality?" Itachi asked, smirking at the child.
"Well, you got wrinkles," Renji explained, getting up and pointing at Itachi's facial lines. "Only old people have wrinkles so I thought you were old. So you'd be a geezer."
Itachi sighed. No matter where he was, people always poked fun at his tear-troughs. De…what was it now? The blonde one in Akatsuki who hated his guts; he constantly teased Itachi for them, saying it made him look older than he really was. What could he do about them? He was born with them and they steadily got longer and more pronounced as he grew older. How could he explain that to a child?
"…Astute observation, I suppose," was all he could come up with.
"So, what's your name?"
Itachi blinked. "What?"
"What. Is. Your. Name?" Renji repeated. "You helped me, so I wanna help you."
"You don't have to do that, Renji."
"But I wanna!" the redhead chirped. "I may not remember my Kaa-chan very good, but she always told me to 'repay someone's kindness when they help you'! Don't know what she means by 'repay kindness'; I got no money to buy it, but I still wanna repay ya!"
Itachi held in a snort, placing a hand over his mouth to prevent any laughter that wanted to burst forth from coming. He forgot how innocent and honest young children could be. He rarely saw Sasuke when he was that age because he was almost constantly on missions, so he wasn't used to hearing it. Itachi regained his composure, though a smile still made its way onto his face.
"You want to repay me?"
"Yeah! Whatever it is, I'll buy it!"
Itachi poked Renji's forehead again. "Repayment doesn't always mean buying something, Renji. Sometimes, just doing a favor for someone is just as valuable as any material object."
"Really?" Renji asked, cocking his head in a confused manner while rubbing his poked forehead again. "Then what do you want from me?"
"Would you like to stay here, Renji?"
"EH!?" Renji shouted in disbelief.
"I'm not a fan of children being forced to become adults before their coming of age because of the society they live in," Itachi explained calmly, watching Renji's face mirror that of a gaping fish. "You've already established that you live on your own. That doesn't sit well with me, especially now since I've gotten to know a bit about you. Of course, the decision is entirely up to you whether to accept or not."
"You're willing to let me stay with you?" Renji's bright eyes seemed to expand in amazement the longer they stayed focused on Itachi.
"Yes. Is that really such a surprise?"
"Of course, dumbass!" Renji said. "So…you'd be like my big brother if I said yes?"
"More or less; if that's what you want to view me as."
"Then hell yes! I wanna stay!" Renji jumped out of the futon and tackled Itachi, nearly toppling the ex-shinobi over. He wrapped his arms around Itachi's neck in a fierce grip. The redhead was laughing as he hugged the young adult, slightly choking Itachi while he did so. Renji suddenly paused and let out a small gasp. "Wait a sec!"
"What?" Itachi choked out as he loosened Renji's arms enough so he could breathe.
"I forgot! You didn't tell me your name, nii-san!" Renji exclaimed.
"Itachi. My name is Itachi," replied the Uchiha.
"Doesn't that mean 'weasel'?"
"Yes. I am aware. Renji?"
"I have a question for you."
"What is it, nii-san?"
"Do you remember the names of your parents?"
"Um…kinda?" Renji said, scrunching his face up in concentration. "My last name is from tou-san and kaa-chan was Mizuki Uzu…Uzu…Uzu something?"
"Yeah! That was it! Uzumaki!"
So, it sounded like he was a descendent of the Uzumaki clan, confirming Itachi's suspicions. That explained Renji's fiery red hair that could rival Kushina-san's in intensity and the fact he had a chakra system. There was one last thing left that Itachi needed to find out.
"One last thing. Do you know what chakra is, Renji?"
"What now? Chock-rah?"
That response answered that question. His time in the Soul Society must've wiped almost all his memories from his short time alive. It was Renji's desire to become a Soul Reaper, despite Itachi's misgivings about the profession. As his guardian, it would fall to him to make sure that dream came true. So it would be a blatant advantage for Renji to relearn the concepts of controlling chakra for future uses. The occasional Soul Reapers that Itachi saw did not have the chakra system. If Renji were to learn jutsu, it would be a great surprise tactic to pull on his opponents which could give him the upper hand in combat.
"Hey, Itachi? Can I call you Weasel-nii-san?" Renji asked, bringing Itachi out of his thoughts.
"Please don't…"
"Alright, alright, alright! Damn it...Then how about Itachi-nii?"
"That, I am fine with."
"Hooray! Itachi-nii!" Renji cried as he resumed his hugging/choking of Itachi.
"Renji, I can't breathe! Loosen your hug!"
"Whoops! Sorry, Itachi-nii!"
And so the title of big brother was thrust upon Itachi Uchiha once again…
Tou-san – Father
Kaa-chan – Mother
Nii-san – Big Brother
Itachi-nii – Big Bro Itachi
San – Japanese honorific. Similar to Mr. or Miss in English.
Senpai – Japanese honorific. Used to address someone who is senior to you.
This took me a while to write up since I was playing around with quite a few ideas of where to head with Itachi's early years in Rukongai. It didn't help that I was trying to come up with a potential cover for this story either. In the end, we got Itachi playing "big brother" for Renji in this chapter.
Renji's past isn't explicitly stated other than his time with Rukia, so it allows lots of free room to manipulate his background. I was absentmindedly thinking about Renji in one of my college classes when I suddenly remembered that the Uzumaki clan had trademark red hair. Then I returned thinking about Renji and his bright red hair. It took me two whole minutes of epic failure before I had the epiphany.
I hadn't seen the concept used before and I wanted to see how it worked. So, TADAH! I have created the original idea in Bleach/Naruto crossovers that Renji Abarai is a descendent of the Uzumaki clan! He is Renji Abarai-Uzumaki and with Itachi in tow as his big brother, his growth as a person and as a Soul Reaper will change dramatically. Please review!

Scythe XD replied to TacoManStan's topic in Bot HelpEverytime I try to open an RS3 bot, It almost loads and then the bot closes leaving the error(?) in the console: "Java HotSpot Client VM warning: Using incremental CMS is deprecated and will likely be removed in a future release" i've updated my Java to the latest, and i've tried an older verson of java, I don't know what else I might be able to do to fix this little issue I'm experiencing.
