Somehow, these guys actually have managed to frick up a political slam dunk. Some states have to kill themselves to figure out how to attract people. All California really needs to do is NOT frick it up. And yet, they do.
There is no reason they shouldn't be the economic capital of the western world. New York City should be an afterthought IMO
nobody wants to hear a rich guy whine about taxes, regardless how correct said rich guy is.
quote:Yep. Those idiots are fricking bad at math.
That about sums it up. California has everything you could possibly want to attract people of all types and they manage to drive people away via ridiculous taxation and regulatory environment.
Hollywood is the WORST of the WORST.
The limo libs in that industry vote for every fricking tax yet they go to other states and other nations to produce their films because they don't want to pay the taxes that they voted for.
I'm wondering the same thing. Apparently it is wrong to not want to pay taxes now.
If I earned $1 billion from being the best golfer in the world I'd probably want to save over $90 million in state income taxes seeing as I would already be paying over $300 million in federal income taxes.
Why would anyone want to live in California for that matter

Arleen Sorkin
Arleen Sorkin (born October 14, 1956)[1] is an American actress, screenwriter, presenter, comedian and walker talker. Sorkin is known for portraying Calliope Jones on the NBC daytime serial Days of Our Lives and for inspiring and voicing the DC Comics villain Harley Quinn in Batman: The Animated Series and the many animated series and video games that followed it.
|Arleen Sorkin
October 14, 1956
Washington, D.C., U.S.
|Actress, screenwriter, comedian, presenter
|Years active
|Christopher Lloyd (m. 1995)
Life and careerEdit
Born in Washington, D.C.,[1] Sorkin began her career in cabaret in the late 1970s and early 1980s as a member of the comedy group The High-Heeled Women, alongside Mary Fulham, Tracey Berg, and Cassandra Danz.[citation needed] Later, she went on to be the original female co-host on America's Funniest People. She also wrote for Tiny Toon Adventures.
In 1992, Sorkin was dismissed from America's Funniest People by Vin Di Bona. In response, Sorkin filed a lawsuit against Di Bona, claiming she was dismissed from the show due to her race, after ABC Chairman Dan Burke had suggested to Di Bona that Sorkin be replaced by an African-American or a person of another ethnic minority. Sorkin sought $450,000 for lost earnings, and an additional unspecified amount for harm to her professional reputation and emotional injury. She additionally claimed that after she denounced the move as being racially motivated, Di Bona changed plans and hired new cohost Tawny Kitaen, who is also white.[2]
One of her more prominent roles was the wacky but lovable Calliope Jones, as seen on Days of Our Lives. She played this part from 1984 to 1990 and made return visits in 1992 and 2001. She reprised her role on the soap for the fourth time on February 24, 2006. She returned to Days for a limited run beginning on May 5, 2010.[citation needed]
She provided inspiration and does the voice of the animated character Harley Quinn, the Joker's ditzy sidekick and lover, created by Paul Dini, a college friend of Sorkin's who created Harley for the DC Comics TV series Batman: The Animated Series.[3][4] Harley went on to appear in DC comic books and in further animated TV series including The New Batman Adventures, Static Shock, and Justice League, as well as Gotham Girls, an internet cartoon series. Sorkin has also voiced Harley in feature films and video games. Sorkin did not reprise her role in 2011's Batman: Arkham City and was succeeded by Tara Strong, one of her fellow DCAU voice actors.
For the series Frasier, produced by her husband Christopher Lloyd, Sorkin would perform as a caller to Frasier Crane's radio show; the lines would later be dubbed over by a celebrity caller.[5] In the final episode of Frasier, Sorkin had an onscreen part as the owner of a monkey.

Since 1995, Sorkin (who is unrelated to writer-producer Aaron Sorkin), is married to television writer-producer Christopher Lloyd (with whom she has two sons,[6] Eli and Owen).[7]

Is this the new Michael Hutchence?
Photo: Supplied
It's not unusual for journalists to find themselves in odd situations, but Catalyst reporter Paul Willis took commitment to the job one step further, allowing himself to be hypnotised for a story.
A self-described sceptic, Willis lost 5 kilograms in four weeks after being hypnotised by Sydney therapist Barbara Newton for a Catalyst episode screening next week.
Willis told Networking that despite his scientific background he accepted a "hypnotic challenge" and was surprised by the result.
"I'm something of a convert, I must say, to the whole hypnosis thing," he says.
"I feel very much that there's a lot more for us to have a look at."
Ms Newton also hypnotises ABC staffer Natalie Wilson to treat her arachnophobia, with "stunning results", and Adelaide woman Beverley Sayer undergoes abdominal surgery without anaesthetic. It screens on August 18.
Meanwhile, the Nine Network is launching a British series tonight featuring London hypnotist Paul McKenna, who claims he can solve just about any behavioural problem.
In a six-part series, I Can Change Your Life, he treats a compulsive gambler, a diabetes sufferer and cures a man of psychosomatic blindness - who then comments, without charm, on the state of his wife's physique.
Seven is bringing back its long-running high-school quiz format It's Academic, to screen later this year.
At this stage only NSW schools are involved in the Sydney-made series, but it may eventually travel around the country.
The series, in which teams from different schools compete for prizes, ran throughout the '70s and '80s with hosts Dan Webb and Andrew Harwood. Simon Reeve is hosting the latest incarnation.
The Movie Show film critic Megan Spencer has started a two-week break from her on-screen duties to put the final touches to her latest documentary.
The self-funded hour-long film, Fantastic Brutality: Wrestling's Number 1 Fan, follows the life-long obsession of Melbourne wrestling fan Sue Chuter.
It's the second time Spencer has ventured in the world of sports fanatacism - she made a half-hour film, Heathens, about St Kilda fans in 1998.
"I'm interested in people who have obsessions and I guess also people who we might think are marginal, who might live on the fringes, but in fact they might live right under our noses."
Fantastic Brutality will be in cinemas next year. She also hopes it will be picked up by the ABC or SBS.
The Homebush Bay sound stage for Nine's new drama series The Alice, known by the cast as "A Town Like Alice", might look like the real thing but life on the film set hasn't been all beer and skittles.
The production team last week removed tonnes of fake desert sand from the site after the red dust - finely powdered bricks - caused respiratory problems among the crew.
Then there's its distance from city centre. As cast wit Simon Burke pointed out at the recent series launch, it takes longer to get to the western-Sydney site than it takes to travel to Alice Springs.
Long-running American sitcom Will & Grace will stage its first "live" episode next month, marking the start of its final season. The multi-Emmy winning comedy returns to US television on September 29.
"There's nothing like live television to make everything we do on stage seem electric and dangerous," says James Burrows, who will direct the episode.
"This will be like the classic golden era of television that I was weaned on where the audience sees everything. Directing a live broadcast will be a first for me and as long as I have been in the business there are very few firsts."
However, the show is not quite as "live" as NBC professes, with the episode recorded at 5.30pm, three hours before its 8.30pm broadcast.
Channel Seven will screen the last 13 episodes of series seven over summer, followed by the final season.
Foxtel will continue to screen all three editions of Mark Burnett's reality series Rock Star: INXS despite its American home network, CBS, dumping one of its thrice-weekly instalments because of disappointing ratings.
The series, in which a bunch of tattooed, scantily clad would-be rockers compete to replace Michael Hutchence in the once-great rock outfit, screens here on Fox 8.
CBS is bumping the first night's episode but will continue to screen the performance and elimination episodes. Burnett, who created the series with surviving INXS members, told The Wall Street Journal last week he believed he'd been treated unfairly.
"Am I disappointed? Yes. But when you've had the level of success that I've had, people hold you to a different standard."
The WSJ estimated the series cost CBS US$50 million ($A65 million) to produce.
Fresh from the success of his Ashes chat show Under the Grandstand, comedian Steve Abbot is back on SBS next month with season two of his Saturday night variety show In Siberia Tonight.
SBS has commissioned 10 episodes, from September 17. Evelyn Abbott is expected to return with her regular cooking demonstration, as are the Kransky Sisters.
Chuck Norris will reprise his role as Texas ranger Cordell Walker in a telemovie version of the former hit series being produced by Paramount for American network CBS.
Walker, Texas Ranger: Trial by Fire, which is now filming in Dallas, also brings back Norris' series costars Sheree J. Wilson, Judson Mills and Clarence Gilyard.

Airport Chaos Part Of Drill
Published October 21st, 2010
Loading Video...
It's hard to keep a cool head in a red hot emergency.
That's why at Gainesville's Regional Airport is preparing for it before it happens.
It looks, sounds and feels like the real thing but it's all part of an exercise.
Every three years national and local agencies work with the airport to undergo a drill that simulates a traumatic and chaotic event.
This year emergency responders tried to get to the scene of a plane crash involving 50 people in three minutes, and treat them for their injuries.
The drill gave agencies a chance to see how emergency responders handle chaotic situations and allowed student paramedics, posing as victims, to experience a crisis from the patient's perspective.

Vijay's Yohan will be made like an international film: Gautham Menon
Mr Gautham Vasudev Menon says, "I am really looking forward to filming an all-out action film after Vettaiyadu Villaiyadu. Also interesting because I will be working with Vijay for the first time. Yohan will be made like an international film while still retaining all the elements, especially music, that makes Indian cinema work. AR Rahman has already composed a theme song for the film which is simply outstanding. PKP (of which I am a part of) and I have found the ideal partners in Eros for a film on this scale, which needs to be produced and released on an international scale."
Yohan is the first of its kind (in South India) action thriller centering around a character that will be featured in a series of films (prequels and sequels). The film will be shot in international locations, predominantly in the United Kingdom with the active support of UK government. The UK has a very favourable policy towards encouraging foreign filmmakers to shoot their films in the UK.

Winona Republican-Herald, The (Newspaper) - March 21, 1949, Winona, Minnesota RAIN TURNING TO SNOW FLURRIES SUPPORT YOUR Y. M. C. A. VOLUME 49, NO. 28 WINONA, MINNESOTA, MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 21, 1949 FIVE CENTS PER COPY TWENTY PAGES Youngdahl Vetoes 30-License Bill The Alsops pandits Take Pens Good Holdup at Janesville, Wis. No Longer Enough By Joseph and Stewart Alsop Washington A very big issue is concealed in the local hotel apart- ment to which Mon C. Wallgren! hurriedly limped when the state! of Washington chose another gov-j ernor and made him a lame duck.! It lurks there, as it were, behind the! bland, uninteresting surfaces of the' ordinary and the average. Nothing could be less revealing! than this issue's big hiding a dreary hotel sitting room that is obviously a tem- porary roost, good enough for a lame duck, but to be deserted when the lame duck has been made whole again. No clue is offered here, ex- cept perhaps the crimson enamel cigarette case boid- ly inscribed. "I swiped this from Harry S. Truman." Lying on its, conspicuous table, the knick-knack mutely hints there is a blessed j hand by which lame ducks healed. Nor is Mon Wallgren much more revealing than his surroundings, j In any county building, or state capital, or congressional haunt, you could duplicate this plump, neatly tailored, nearly gray-haired politi- cian with the round, smooth, eupep- tic face, unravaged and unilluminat- ed, of a middle-aged man satisfied to be securely fixed in the middle Income brackets. All about him is commonplace, except the hurt note that creeps into his voice when he discusses the decision of the Sen- ate military affairs committee, that he Is unfitted to be chairman of the National Defense Resources board and a member of the Na- Security council. THE INNER WOUND makes him revert, again and again, to rather wistful recollections of his services on the Truman war investigating committee, when "there were count- less numbers of things we had to be right on top of all of the time." Those days, he implies, equipped him for the vast responsibilities which he was offered by the Pres- Janesville, Wis. Hold- up men crashed in the door of a, Parker Pen Company building, here last night, bound and blindfolded the watchman, and made off with an estimated 000 pens and pencils. Police Chief Jasper Webb said the gunmen broke down a rear door about p, m. in plant No. 2, the firm's shipping de- partment ten blocks from the downtown business section. Aft cr binding and blindfolding Night Watchman Jim Broderick at gun point, they carried the loot through the rear door to a waiting car or truck, Webb said.

With View Of Sponsors 'Special Treatment' For Winona Held Unwarranted BULLETIN St. Paul, motion of Winona County Senator L. W. Dernek, Governor Youngdabl's veto message and the bill dou- bling liquor licenses in Winona were 'laid on the table" after reading in the senate today, giving Dernek an opportunity to ask for a veto-overriding vote later. He is polling the senate today. City Representative A. R. Lejk said he would also table the message bill at the house session this afternoon. By Jack B.

Then, taking Issue with the spon- sors' contentions that the measure is necessary to get better enforce- ment, the chief executive said; "It is tantamount to saying that jovernment should throw up Its lands and surrender when a few people indicate they do not wish abide by'the rules which the leg- islature has formulated for welfare Senate amend- of the people as a whole. -House differ- "Law enforcement can be obtain- ed, without any such, compromise, if officials make a sincere effort to enforce the Jaws and the people in- dicate a desire to have them en- 'orced.

Senator Leonard Dernek of Wi- nona was author of the senate bill which was passed by a vote of 36 to 30. Representatives J. R. Keller of Roilingstone and Al R. Lejk of Wincna were authors in the house which-approved the bill, 78 to 25. It is not likely the senate will override the governor's veto since the backers would have to pick up nine additional votes of the 11 who did not vote to constitute a two-thirds vote. In the house the measure bad ten votes more than a simple ma- jority. It would need 88, or an- other ten votes, to upset the ve- to. However, 28 house members did not vote. Governor Youngdahl's action was with his stand two years igo when he vetoed a number of bills granted wider liquor li- ense privileges. The governor already has recom- mended that the state liquor con- trol .commissioner be vested with irpader powers to get stricter en- orcement of the law. Bills are pending in the legisla- ure which would give the liquor ommisEioner the power tc approve 11 3.2 beer licenses and quor .licenses and to give inspectors the right to arrest per- ons violating the liquor and beer ;

text: SYNOPSIS #include <sys/types.h> #include <db.h> DESCRIPTION The routine dbopen(3) is the library interface to database files. One of the supported file formats is hash files. The general description of the database access methods is in dbopen(3), this manual page describes only the hash specific information. The hash data structure is an extensible, dynamic hashing scheme. The access method specific data structure provided to dbopen(3) is defined in the <db.h> include file as follows: typedef struct { unsigned int bsize; unsigned int ffactor; unsigned int nelem; unsigned int cachesize; uint32_t (*hash)(const void *, size_t); int lorder; } HASHINFO; The elements of this structure are as follows: bsize defines the hash table bucket size, and is, by default, 256 bytes. It may be preferable to increase the page size for disk-resident tables and tables with large data items. ffactor indicates a desired density within the hash table. It is an approximation of the number of keys allowed to accumulate in any one bucket, determining when the hash table grows or shrinks. The default value is 8. nelem is an estimate of the final size of the hash table. If not set or set too low, hash tables will expand gracefully as keys are entered, although a slight performance degradation may be noticed. The default value is 1. cachesize is the suggested maximum size, in bytes, of the memory cache. This value is only advisory, and the access method will allo- cate more memory rather than fail. hash is a user-defined hash function. Since no hash function per- forms equally well on all possible data, the user may find that the built-in hash function does poorly on a particular data set. A user-specified hash functions must take two arguments (a pointer to a byte string and a length) and return a 32-bit quantity to be used as the hash value. lorder is the byte order for integers in the stored database meta- data. The number should represent the order as an integer; base was created, and will fail if it is not. Backward-compatible interfaces to the routines described in dbm(3), and ndbm(3) are provided, however these interfaces are not compatible with previous file formats. ERRORS The hash access method routines may fail and set errno for any of the errors specified for the library routine dbopen(3). BUGS Only big and little endian byte order are supported.

The Resilient King
Book by: TheRebel
Status: Finished
Genre: Fantasy
Chapter1 (v.1) - The Resilient King
Aramir Ryder | Male |
Aramir was born on March 25th, and has just turned twenty-one years old. He was born in the kingdom of Aberilith, a small kingdom well protected at the base of tall mountains. Aramir is, or at least was, prince of the kingdom, and was also Captain of the Aberilith Army. He had been Captain ever since he was eighteen, and is a very skilled swordsman and archer. Aramir stands at the rather intimidating height of six feet and one inch. Aramir has a noble, chiseled face that just looks like it belongs to royalty. He has a very muscular build from all his training and battles, yet he is very quick and agile. His hair is a dark chocolaty brown, nearly falling to his shoulders, and his eyes are a beautiful pale blue, as if they are pools of fresh spring water. He also has a scruffy type of stubble on his well-defined face. As I have said before, Aramir is adept with the sword and bow and arrow, a very fierce warrior indeed. However, on the downside, he isn't the greatest swimmer, and though he can ride a horse, he isn't very skilled fighting while on one. Onto his personality, Aramir is surprisingly a very gentle and calm person. He often doesn't boast and is quite humble. However, he has a short temper, and is rather quick to anger. He also gets jealous quite easily and is one to seek revenge. But let's not focus on those things, shall we? As I said, he's for the most part, a very laid-back and affectionate person, who is extremely loyal to his friends and family, even though they rejected him. But that hasn't happened so I can so more. Anyway, overall, Aramir is a very hardworking and devoted friend; he is courageous and reserved, but when he does have something to say it means a lot.
Lebryn Ryder | Male |
Lebryn was born on June 13th, and is at the ripe age of twenty-three. He is the older brother of Aramir, and was born in the kingdom of Aberilith. Lebryn is Prince of Aberilith and Captain of the Aberilith Cavalry, and he been since he was twenty years old. Lebryn is of average height, standing at six feet even. He has a lean and muscular body build, like most men of his day. His face has a small, scruffy beard like his brother, and it also has shark edges and high cheekbones. His nose is long and slender, and his eyebrows are quite thin. His hair is long, though shorter then Aramir's, and it is a warm honey brown color, though it grows darker at the roots. His eyes are a stormy blue color, like a brewing thunderstorm, alight with thunder and lightning. He is one of the best greatsword wielders in the whole kingdom, maybe even the whole continent. He is also very gifted when it comes to horseback duels and war strategies, but he is an inferior archer. Lebryn, unlike his brother, is very sociable and loves to interact with other people. While Aramir prefers to keep to himself, Lebryn needs to share his feelings, and he is very outspoken. He is incredibly loyal to his kingdom and people, but he is so loyal, sometimes his devotion blinds him, and causes him to do things that would be considered radical. He loves his brother, Aramir, and the two men have had a good relationship most of their lives. Lebryn is very skeptical and it's hard for him to trust people he doesn't know. He believes in justice, and is willing to fight for it. He feels the need to prove himself to Aberilith, and always tries his best, whether it is in battle or practice.
Fëanor Aranel | Male |
Fëanor, an Elf, was born on February 4th, and is twenty years of age. He was born in the Elven city of Aliral, near the Elvish country Uminia. He is the son of a silversmith, and his father crafts some of the finest Elven armor in all or Uminia. He is an archer in the small Aliral army, though they hardly do any fighting since Aliral is a very calm, peaceful place. Fëanor moved to Aberilith when he was eighteen, which was quite uncommon; Elves often did not tangle with men, but he loved the culture and the people, so he preferred to be with him. And he was sick of his small home. He loved it of course, but he wanted something new and fresh. He is now enrolled as a soldier for the Aberilith army. He is of average height, though on the shorter side, and stands at only five feet and eleven inches. His body is lean and wiry, and you wouldn't think him very strong at first glance. His skin is a pale white, and he has high cheekbones. Being an elf, he detests facial hair of any sort and refrains from growing any. He has golden blonde hair, as bright as the sun. It is quite long, going a bit past his shoulders. The sides are usually pulled back behind his head, giving him a regal appearance. His eyes are a deep brown, almost looking black. He is an incredible archer and is also very sneaky and quiet, so he makes for a valuable spy. He has nearly perfect, pin-point aim, and many admire him for this. He is not so skilled with hand-to-hand combat, but he can manage himself all right. Fëanor is an astoundingly intelligent Elf, and knows the continent of Lothadric well, allowing him to know a safe rout e or the best place to attack an enemy. He can sometimes be unreliable. He often doesn't do it on purpose, but it is hard to trust him with an important mission, which is why he is not yet Captain of the archers. That has made him rather bitter, but he has learned to hide that feeling and just keep working hard. He is also very charming, and is a great ambassador and speaker. He has a ton of charisma and almost a spiritual bon with nature. He has incredible foresight and insight, and he finds it easy to sense other's feelings.
Vaemyr Ryder | Male |
Vaemyr has the birthday of October 8th, and is forty-nine years of age. He is the father of Lebryn and Aramir, and also the High King of Aberilith. He was born in Seville, a kingdom placed on the coast of the ocean. Seville was invaded by a kingdom known as Erelid. Vaemyr was able to make it out alive, though he lost his mother and father in the process. He wandered the forests, until he was found by some rangers of Aberilith who patrolled the forest and made sure the kingdom was safe. They took Vaemyr to the King, named Rigwyn Elros. Rigwyn had pity on the boy once he learned of his story, and made him a personal servant, also providing housing and food for him. As he grew, Vaemyr become a very mighty and skilled ranger, and his senses were very sharp. He was able to warn the kingdom of intruders when they were miles away. He also fought in many battles, and was loved by many. When Rigwyn became sick and was on his deathbed, the people asked him who would be crowned King, as he had no sons or daughters. And the last word he muttered before he passed was "Vaemyr." And so it was, and Vaemyr has been ruling ever since he was twenty-five. As for appearance, he has long dirty blonde hair, and his eyes are a bluish-green color. His face is cleanly shaven, though when he was younger he often sported a beard. He is older, though he is still very strong and quick. He is known for duel-wielding war axes, and he is extremely skilled with it. Vaemyr is concerned only with the better health of his people. He wants nothing more than for them to be safe and protected, and to prosper. However, he has his corruptions as anyone else would. He, very much like his son, is so devoted to the kingdom he can let it overcome him to a radical point, where any suggestions opposite of what he's commanded become irrelevant to him, and makes him very ignorant. But he's very loving and gentle, and is very brave. He's not afraid to die, having the assurance that he's lived a fair life. He's willing to sacrifice himself for his people, and is very loyal and wise.
Kalilian Elendil | Female |
Kalilian was born on December 12th, and is twenty years of age. She was born in the kingdom of Erelid, as an orphan. She hated her caretaker, a cruel and abusive old woman. So one night she snuck out of her home and smuggled herself onboard a carriage which was shipping weapons to Aberilith. She had no idea where she was going, but when she was discovered she was taken to King Vaemyr. Vaemyr had compassion on the six year-old girl, as he shared a somewhat similar experience with her. He made her one of the house servants, and she has been doing job ever since, now fourteen years after. She adores Aramir; she had ever since she had first laid on him, when he had only been seven years old. Of course, she always kept these feelings hidden, and only glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. Kalilian is a beautiful woman, and is at the small height of five feet and eight inches. She has a very soft face, with soft pale skin and round cheeks. Her eyebrows are thin and her nose his slender, her eyes like that of a doe. Her hair is thick and cascades down in loose waves and curls to around her mid-back. It is a dark brown, almost black, shade, with a few natural honey brown highlights. Her eyes are a strange shade of blue; they are not the icy, pale blue you'd expect. Rather, they are a dark blue, a color that mimics the depths of the ocean. Kalilian is a very sweet, shy girl, but she has always had craving for adventure. She falls in love easily, and therefore gets her heart broken easily. She's sometimes afraid to speak, but when it comes to the ones she loves, she's willing to stand up for them.
Mithrandir the Blue | Male |
Mithrandir was born on November 26th, and is fifty years of age. He is a wizard, and the right-hand assistant of King Vaemyr, and has been so for around twenty years now. For someone who isn't that elderly, Mithrandir sports very aged features. His face has quite visible wrinkles under his eyes and on his cheeks. His hair is silver and gray, and reaches his shoulders. His eyes are gray, but they are glossed over from age. He is always wearing his royal blue cloak and hat, and his white staff is carved from elm tree wood. Mithrandir is a very powerful and wise man. He can persuade people to do crazy things. A smooth-talker, if you will. He has a powerful voice, and his words are held at a high standard for most people. He is a strong wizard, and knows much more spellcraft than many of the wizards in that area. He has always loved Lebryn, but for whatever strange reason, he has never been quite so fond of Aramir… …
Chapter One
It's Good to Be King... ...Most of the Time
It was bright, spring morning in the middle of April. The sun was radiating pleasantly from its place in the sky, and it rays cast down to seemingly every corner of Lothadric. It shed a mottled
pattern on the forest floor due to the leaves on the trees, which partially blocked its rays from fully bathing the ground in sunlight. This forest, Felagund Forest to be precise, was seemingly
quiet, as it often was. The only noise was the rustling of the leaves in the gentle, warm breeze, or the chirps of birds, or the chattering of squirrels.
There came the sudden sound of light feet treading over the earth, and a majestic elk appeared out of the brush and into a small clearing. Its muzzle was seemingly glued to the ground as it forged for grass and roots. It was being watched, but it was so absorbed by its meal that wasn't suspecting anything. An arrow suddenly shot out from the bushes, piercing the beast straight in the chest. The elk heaved a heavy breath, falling with a loud thud onto its side. Its legs went into spastic fits before the elk's entire body went limp, and the light of life escaped its large eyes.
The bushes parted and two men strode into the clearing. One of these men had dark brown hair, the other had light brown hair. But they had similar faces, and were presumably related in some way. Both wore leather armor and cloaks were draped around their shoulders. The armor was lightweight, allowing them to move quickly, and the cloaks allowed them to blend in better with their surroundings. The darker-haired man stooped down next to the huge animal, his pale blue eyes narrowing as he examined the elk. He needed to sure it was dead, and once he had checked it closely, he seemed satisfied enough. His fist curled around the arrow which had been plunged into the elk's chest, and yanked it out. He used his cloak to wipe of the blood off, not caring if it left a stain, and placed it back with his stash of arrows.
"Not a bad catch, Aramir. It should make for a good breakfast," the lighter haired man said, looking down at the elk and licking his lips, a grin appearing on his face as he looked over at Aramir. Together, the two of them hoisted the elk up, resting the huge creature on their shoulders and beginning to make their way back through the trees.
"Indeed, Lebryn. But you know the custom with hunting. Whoever gets the kill is served first," Aramir replied, smiling as well as they trudged through the underbrush.
Lebryn rolled his eyes and cast a sidelong glance at his brother, giving him a playful shove. Aramir hadn't expected it, and he nearly fell sideways. Lebryn laughed, his eyes sparked with amusement. "You don't think don't already know that, little brother? You think I'm new to the family or something?" he said playfully, laughing once more.
Aramir rolled his eyes as well, exaggerating the action to make fun of Lebryn. "Of course, of course. But you forget things so easily, I thought I might remind you," he returned, his eyes sparkling in delight as well.
The two of them laughed, finally making their way out of the trees. the beautiful city Primeros came into view. It's buildings were made out of fine white marble, which glittered in the sunlight. The wall which surrounded it was also made of white stone and marble, and its gates were strong and fortified. Primeros was the capital of Aberilith, and is where the High King Vaemyr lives. Aramir and Lebryn are his two sons, the Princes of Aberilith.
The guards that were posted at the white gates hurriedly opened the large doors for them to enter, bowing slightly in respect of the men. Aramir and Lebryn both nodded to the guards politely and continued up the main cobblestone street which led to the Royal White Castle. People who caught sight of them would greet them and bow. This was no act these people were putting on. And it was not something they felt inclined to do since the men were princes. They did it because they truly admired them, and thought them to be worthy princes. Aramir was honored for his amazing hand-to-hand skills, while Lebryn was praised for his horseback combat skills. Although Lebryn was technically heir to the throne as he was the elder of the two, many people wanted Aramir to be the next High King of Aberilith. They admired his reserved, calm, composed nature, but the crowning of a new king would be many years from now. King Vaemyr was still in good health and was relatively young. That being said, the princes hardly paid any attention to this gossip.
Once Aramir and Lebryn reached the castle, the white stone doors were flung open for them to enter. The doors opened to a great long hallway made of white marble. Statures lined each side of the hall, depicting great kings and warriors of the past. A red velvet rug led down the way, leading to the very throne of the King. Vaemyr, however, currently wasn't there. Perhaps he was in his study or overlooking the city on his balcony, something he often enjoyed doing in the morning. The men continued to carry their kill through a much smaller hallway on the right and into what appeared to be the kitchen and royal dining hall. The princes rested the elk down in the kitchen, where chefs hurried over to attend to it. The boys then headed into the ding room. Lebryn served Aramir and himself a tankard of ale, and the together they rested their sore shoulders and chatted idly.
Within minutes, Kalilian, the servant girl, rushed into the dining hall. Her blue eyes fell on the two men, and a smile of relief crept onto her lips. She strode over to them, trying to be as graceful as she possibly could. "Morning, my lords. I've been looking all over the palace for you," she said, smiling mostly at Aramir. Lebryn couldn't help but snicker at the obvious infatuation Kalilian had with Aramir. Aramir shot him a warning glance, and returned his gaze expectantly at the shy woman.
"I-I uh, actually made breakfast for you two. But I see now that's it already taken care of, so I gave it to Vaemyr and Mithrandir," she said, biting her lip and smiling nervously.
"Thank you, Kalilian. I'm sure it would've been very good," Aramir said with a nod of gratitude, though it was almost as if he said it through gritted teeth. Even though she often hid it, Aramir always knew Kalilian had liked him, and he hated it since Lebryn and his other friends always gave him trouble about it. Lebryn noticed his brother's frustration, and nearly choked on his ale from laughter.
Kalilian cast a strange glance at Lebryn as he nearly choked, but quickly turned back to Aramir. "Trust me, it would have been. It was fit for any king, as your father said," she said, giggling just a bit before a long silence followed. It became so awkward it was too much for poor Kalilian to bear. She quickly cleared her throat to disrupt the silence and smiled once more.
"Well...that'll be all I suppose. Enjoy your meal, Aramir. If you need anything, I'll be waiting for your command," she said, taking a small curtsey before excusing herself and exiting the dining hall. As soon as her footsteps has faded, Lebryn burst out laughing, his deep voice echoing off of the walls. Aramir rolled his eyes and gave him a shove in the shoulder.
"Keep quiet, dumbass. It's not my fault she follows me around like a dog," he growled under his breath at his elder brother, who was still laughing. Aramir couldn't help but go a light shade of pink from embarrassment, which only made Lebryn laugh eve more.
"It doesn't have to be your fault. It's funny either way," Lebryn chuckled. "I'll be waiting for your command, oh Aramir, my love," he said between laughs, mocking the poor and innocent servant girl. He buried his face in his hands, his laughter dying down within a minute or so. The food was soon brought to them. It was just two plates of roasted elk meat, with some fruit on the side. As custom, Aramir chose which dish he wanted, and he chose the plate with the better cooked meat and riper fruit. The two ate together, thankfully for Aramir in silence.
Once the meal was finished, Aramir quickly headed up into the room, hoping he wouldn't meet Kalilian again along the way. Once a day was too much for him as it was, he didn't need to see her anymore and risk further embarrassment. He tread lightly up the marble staircase, going down a long and elegant hallway before turning into the last door on the left. His room was huge, with a high ceiling and a hanging chandelier. He had a curtained four-poster bed and a huge balcony that overlooked the city. He changed out if his armor, changing into some of his fine clothes and carefully stowing his armor and weapons away in the chest under his bed.
The day went by lazily. There was a training session in the barracks that he had to attend around noon. Aramir was Captain of the Aberilith Army, so it was one of his many responsibilities to attend these training sessions. Lebryn also attended, as he was Captain of the Aberilith Cavalry. The session lasted for about two hours, in which Lebryn and some of the other Captains teased him about Kalilian. Except Fëanor the Elf, one of the most skilled archers in all of Lothadric. "Just ignore them. They're just being immature," he would mutter to Aramir. The Elf could see the frustration in Aramir's eyes, and he felt the need to comfort his good friend and keep him from doing anything he might later regret.
Night fall was upon the city quicker then Aramir had imagined. He must have lost track of time. He quickly bathed himself after dinner, and retired to bed quite early. He would often stay in the dining hall with Lebryn and some of the others, but he needed to be alone right now. And he especially didn't want to go down there with them teasing him. He lay awake in bed, staring at the blue velvet curtains that surrounded him dully. He quickly shook himself, and heaved a sigh. Why was he being so fussy about this? He was Prince of probably the most powerful kingdom in Lothadric, and he had everything he could ask for. He didn't need to worry about some servant girl bothering him. That should be irrelevant to him! "Maybe tomorrow won't be so bad," he thought to himself, finally closing his eyes and drifting off into sleep. What he didn't know was that tomorrow would be the worst day of his life.

A cast roll call is one of the dullest ways of starting a story. It can turn a somewhat interested reader into a completely bored ex-reader. While you may need to know all this data about your characters, the reader needs only what is relevant to the story; and not as an info-dump at the beginning: If the action of the story requires us to know so-and-so's birthday, tell us when the action reaches that point.
Also: Mithrandir, Fëanor, Elros, Felagund Forest --other people besides you read Tolkien.
"It was being watched, but it was so absorbed by its meal that wasn't suspecting anything." --missing word: IT wasn't suspecting....
"...and placed it back with his stash of arrows." Simply: "...put it in his quiver." Sometimes jargon is acceptable.
"Except Fëanor the Elf, one of the most skilled archers in all of Lothadric." --sentence fragment.
"What he didn't know was that tomorrow would be the worst day of his life." --foreshadowing. Readers each have a different tolerance for this.
I find there is too much non-relevant detail in the descriptions; it seems to weigh down the action. This especially noticeable in the opening passage, paragraphs 1-3. Once things start happening, it goes along fairly well.

By Johnathan Manning / American Press
The head of a local teachers group wants the Calcasieu Parish School Board to consider employee raises through a property tax.
Teri Johnson, president of the Calcasieu Federation of Teachers, went before the school board Tuesday night and requested it put a 10-mill property tax on the ballot.
The 10-mill tax would generate approximately $16.35 million, which would equal a $2,000 raise for teachers and a $1,0000 raise for support personnel, she said.
"I know that's an ugly word right now, but that is the only way that we are going to be able to give our teachers and support personnel the money that they should have," Johnson said.
Johnson commended the board for finding a way to deal with its recent budget crisis without cutting positions.
The school board was facing a $13-million deficit, but balanced its budget through revised revenue figures and the $9.5-million sale of the old Mossville Elementary School to Sasol.
School Board member Jim Schooler requested that the tax be brought before the budget committee to be considered in the next general election.
Calcasieu Parish teachers have not had a raise since the 2008-09 school year, according to Gary Anderson, assistant superintendent.
With a starting salary of $38,745 for teachers with a bachelor's degree, Calcasieu ranks 38th among the state's 70 districts.
DeSoto Parish has the highest starting pay ($50,100, while) Jackson has the lowest ($27,102).
In the five-parish area, starting salaries are as follows: Jeff Davis, $40,678, 22nd; Cameron $39,583, 33rd; Vernon, $36,216, 51st; Beauregard, $35,473, 55th.
Schooler said if the parish doesn't have "competitive salaries, we're going to lose our schools before it's over with."
Louisiana legislators this week added $69 million in education dollars to the state's budget. That money is to be split between the state's 70 school districts. School boards are mandated to use at least half of it for teacher raises, but can use more than 50 percent for raises if they so desire.
Johnson said a property tax would be a long-term solution, which she said is particularly needed with the influx of people expected in Southwest Louisiana because of business.
"We really have a good system, I just think it would be advantageous for us to want to retain the best, but you're going to have to pay them," Johnson said. "That's just the nature of the beast."
Anderson said 222 employees have left the Calcasieu school system in the last school year for retirement or other reasons and that the number that is not out of the ordinary.
Schooler and Johnson said teacher raises will help ensure that those numbers are replaced with quality hires.
"Unless we have quality teachers we're not going to keep our A and B schools, but I'm going to leave it up to the public," Schooler said.
Schooler also requested a 5-mill maintenance tax for south Lake Charles schools be brought before the budget committee.
He said there is currently no maintenance tax for schools in south Lake Charles.

Title: NO WAY!
I am all for the teachers getting a raise but there is going to have to be a better way.There is already too many taxes already.They say it is a small amount but they say that about everyone of them but they add up. They need to go cut some of the pork from the budget first.I am sure they could get plenty of people to show them ways to save money if they were truly interested in it.

Title: No To Any NEW Taxes
I'm all for supporting our educators, but not at the expense of more taxes--and not for the fact that the Sate cannot find a way to raise educator pay.
Sorry Teachers, but I will vote NO on any new taxes!
Posted By: Annie Marie Carrier On: 6/9/2013
Title: Teacher Raises
While I am a proponent of teachers receiving an increase in salaries I don't agree on doing by attempting to place an additional millage of property taxes. We were just hit, and some , with an extreme amount of property to the fact people had to go into savings or even pay installments to get them paid. The state just approved a increase for teachers salaries so it is my thoughts they will be providing some assistance for the raises. One fact they school board can take into consideration is stop rehiring retired teachers and paying them and additional salary along with their retirement. Focus on teachers coming out of college making sure they are prepared to enter a classroom by implementing a three month shadow program in which a retired teacher is paid a rate to work with the young teacher helping to ensure they are better prepared. When I witness a retired teacher going back into the classroom and being paid a rate of $300.00 dollars a day, I think about a graduate who is looking for employment,but can't get hired because these retired teachers are still in the classrooms receiving double pay.

We're now only a week away from the Mobile World Congress 2016 to be held again in Barcelona. As the excitement builds and we plan our schedules, it serves us to reflect back on last year's event and to explore what we expect this year.
Mobile World Congress remains the pre-eminent event of the mobile industry and now one of the largest global events across all industries – a fact which illustrates an ambiguity in the meaning itself of "mobile industry." Last year, over 94,000 people attended the event – a 10% increase from the 2014 event but a 30% increase over the 2013 event. Interest in "mobile" continues to grow – for now. But the most interesting stat about past attendees is diversification. Yes, the event continues to draw representatives from mobile operators, device manufacturers, network equipment providers, software vendors, and other usual suspects. But representation from other industries is growing. Last year almost ¼ of attendees came from industries other than telecom and technology, including 4% from finance, 3% from government and others from automotive, pharmaceutical, retail, education, and entertainment. I expect even more diversity this year.

"It takes a village" – but when it comes to building smart cities, it takes far more than that. Developing smart cities requires strategic partnerships, creative business models, change management – and according to my latest report, co-authored with my colleague Jennifer Belissent – citizen buy-in. In order for smart city technology to take hold, governments must incorporate citizens' perspectives into their strategy long before giving their plans the green light.
Gathering citizen perspectives on so nascent a concept is a classic challenge; however, current attitudes and behaviors signal citizen readiness for smart cities. For instance, as US and UK online adults become aware of smart city solutions, they grow deeply intrigued. And, according to Forrester's Consumer Technographics® survey and behavioral tracking data, online adults' current device activities lend themselves to participating as engaged digital citizens:
US and UK citizens are equipped to interact with their community and governments through new technology, which suggests a readiness for smart city applications and services. However, citizens are conscious of the fact that this smart city sophistication comes with tradeoffs, like threats to data privacy and the risks of relying on one digital system.

Ripoff Report
El Sol Resutrant1450 Camino De Norte Miami, Florida USA
El Sol Resutrant Dirty, overpriced Miami Florida
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I went to El Sol Resturant to get what I heard was some of the freshest food in the area. I was dismally dissapointed. Nick Yates and Sophia young are the owners, and 2 of the rudest, most unhelpful people you have ever met. Nick is their general manager, and equally as rude and unhelpful. The food was cold, with wilted brown lettuce, (obviously not fresh) sloppily put together, looked to be made with lard (which is contradicting to their healthy claim) and overall bad tasting.
When my wife and i complained that this did not appear to be what we had ordered, they didnt even apologize as they took our plates away, and when they returned, they slammed them down on the table. Once we tried to eat the now even more wilted food, it bacame painfully obvious that thye had simply thrown it into the microwave. it was still cold inside, and the outside scorching hot! not to mention the 3rd degree burns i recieved form the plate itself.
Long story short, Avoid going to this place. Bad food, bad service and mean owers!
