Water Jars of Heaven will take you on many journeys, back to a more innocent time, when God had man's ear. For man still feared god, because man had seen the power of the all mighty, and knew God could give them salvation. It cost him his son, but it costs us nothing more than a few moments of our time to be exchanged for an eternity of his. Come take the journey. Raven L. Skelton is a published, award-winning poet. She is a self-taught writer, musician, singer, and artist. She believes that God has a water jar for everyone, and it is up to us to refill it daily with the living water, which is the perfect word of God. And when we drink, not one shall go thirsty.

Reese Witherspoon Daughter: We Can't Tell Who's Who In These Photos
We already knew Reese Witherspoon's teen daughter Ava was her mini-me, but a new photo has us trying to guess who is who.
On Friday, Witherspoon posted a photo on Instagram of herself and Ava looking more alike than ever! "Mother daughter time," the 40-year-old actress captioned the photo.
Instagram users were also blown away by how identical the mother-daughter duo looked, from their eyes to their hair and even their complexion. "Reese gave birth to Reese," one joked.
Witherspoon had Ava with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe, but as Cosmopolitan points out, it doesn't look like the 16-year-old inherited many of her father's genes!
When you compare throwbacks of Witherspoon with photos of Ava, it's hard to tell who is who. Take a look for yourself below. Can you tell the difference?
How about in these two photos?
And looking back at photos of the duo over the years compared to Witherspoon's most recent shot, it's clear that Ava is growing up to look more and more like her mom.
Ava is the oldest child of Witherspoon and Phillippe. The former couple also has a 12-year-old son named Deacon, who recently graduated from elementary school. But unlike Ava, Deacon looks much less like his famous mom.
Love celebrity doppelgangers? Flip through the slideshow below for more!
Meryl Streep's second child, actress Mamie Gummer, is her spitting image. The mother-daughter duo look so much alike that in 2007, they both starred in the film "Evening" and played the same character at different ages.
The Eastwoods are one good-looking family. Although Clint is a father of seven, his youngest son Scott, 29, looks the most like him.
Speaking of the Eastwoods, Clint's second youngest daughter, 22-year-old Francesca, looks just like her mother, Frances Fisher.
Lourdes Leon looks just like her mom Madonna when she was younger. Madonna had her daughter with actor Carlos Leon in 1996.
Jude Law's 19-year-old son Rafferty is a model and it's not hard to see why. The teen inherited his famous father's dashing good looks.
Wow! Bette Midler and her 28-year-old daughter Sophie Von Haselberg are identical! The two made us do a double take when they stepped out together last year at New York Fashion Week. Read more here.
Everything from this father-son duo's eyes, hair and style are exactly the same.
Most people don't realize that Jon Voight and Angelina Jolie are related, but when you put the two side-by-side, the resemblance is uncanny. Voight had his daughter Jolie with late ex-wife Marcheline Bertrand.
Jackie O's granddaughter looks just like her! Rose Kennedy Schlossberg is 27 years old and an aspiring comedian. Read more here.
Caroline Kennedy is the only daughter of the late John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Caroline's daughter Tatiana Schlossberg, 25, looks just like her and is a New York Times writer.
John Schlossber is the youngest grandchild of the late JFK and Jackie O. The 23-year-old closely resembles his late uncle, John F. Kennedy Jr.
Dylan Penn is definitely her mother's mini-me. All grown up, the 24-year-old is now a model. Wright is also a mom to a son named Hopper, who she also had with ex-husband Sean Penn.
Diana Ross has good genes and she passed them on to her gorgeous daughter Tracee Ellis Ross.
Pierce Brosnan is a father of five, but his 32-year-old son Sean looks just like him! Sean is also an actor.
Whoa! Can you believe this is Sting's son? The two look more like twins than father and son. Joe Sumner, 39, followed in his father's footsteps and became a musician as well. He is the lead singer and bass player for UK band Fiction Plane.
James Jagger might not have his father's moves, but he's certainly got his looks! The 30-year-old is the son of the Rolling Stones frontman and Jerry Hall. The former couple also has three other kids: Elizabeth, Georgia and Gabriel. Read more here.
There's no denying it: Kris Jenner has passed on her good looks to all her kids. However, Kris and daughter Kim look eerily the same.
Eminem's daughter Hailie is all grown up at 20 years old and looks just like her famous father! The rapper had his daughter with ex-wife Kimberly Anne Scott.
There's no doubt that Bon Jovi's son Jesse Bongiovi is his carbon copy! The 20-year-old is a junior on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team. Read more here.
Susan Sarandon passed on her good looks to her daughter Eva Amurri.
Kiefer Sutherland is definitely his father's mini-me.
Goldie Hawn and daughter Kate Hudson make one attractive duo. You know what they say: like mother, like daughter.
This father-son duo looks so much alike!
Blythe Danner, 73, passed on her good looks to daughter Gwyneth Paltrow, 43.
George Harrison, of the Beatles, and his son Dhani are identical.

Google has announced new opportunities for advertisers within Google Maps, which means mobile users will begin seeing promoted search results.
The firm said it is experimenting with ways for companies to "prominently showcase their business locations".
These will arrive in the form of Promoted Pins along their driving route, with cards able to show special offers and product inventory or menus.
The Promoted Pins will also appear in the "near me" listings when users search for nearby attractions, stores or refreshments.
Related: Google Maps tips, tricks and secret features
Google says it's reacting to demand from advertisers to reach customers on mobile devices.
Of course, ads have been a huge part of the Google search experience since its inception, and to this day provide the company's top revenue source.
However, the firm has historically trodden more carefully when it comes to messing with the integrity of Maps searches, which have always felt quite organic and democratic.
"Maps users may start to see promoted pins for nearby coffee shops, gas stations or lunch spots along their driving route," Sridhar Ramaswamy, senior vice president, Ads & Commerce wrote on the Inside AdWords blog.
"Local business pages are also getting a brand-new look -- to encourage consumers to explore your store before they even arrive, we're adding new features like special offers and the ability to browse product inventory."
The company already offers ads within its Waze companion app, but including them within the main Google Maps app may not go down too well with the user base.

Returnnutrients and chemicals to the blood.
Lieretroperitoneally on the posterior abdominal wall,
one on each side of the vertebral column.
At the concave medial margin of each kidney is a vertical cleft, the renal hilum.
The renal hilum is the entrance to a space within the kidney, the renal sinus.
Structures that serve the kidneys (vessels, nerves, and structures that drain urine from the kidney) enter and exit the renal sinus through the renal hilum.
Each kidney has anterior and posterior surfaces, medial and lateral margins, and superior and inferior poles.
The renal pelvis is the flattened, funnel-shaped expansion of the superior end of the ureter.
The renal pelvis receives two or three major calices (calyces), each of which divides into two or three minor calices.
Each minor calyx is indented by a renal papilla, the apex of the renal pyramid, from which the urine is excreted.
The pyramids and their associated cortex form the lobes of the kidney.
Locatedbetween the superomedial aspects of the kidneys & diaphragm, where they are surrounded by connective tissue containing considerable perinephric fat.
Suprarenalcortex secretes corticosteroids and androgens.
These hormones cause the kidneys to retain sodium and water in response to stress, increasing the blood volume and blood pressure. They also affect muscles and organs such as the heart and lungs.
Suprarenalmedullais a mass of nervous tissue associated with the sympathetic nervous system.
The chromaffin cells of the medulla secrete catecholamines (mostly epinephrine) into the bloodstream in response to signals from presynaptic neurons.
The powerful medullary hormones epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline) activate the body to a flight-or-fight status in response to traumatic stress.
They also increase heart rate and blood pressure, dilate the bronchioles, and change blood flow patterns, preparing for physical exertion.
Pelvicviscera include the distal parts of the urinary system and digestive tract, and the reproductive system.
The bladder and rectum—true pelvic viscera—are inferior continuations of systems encountered in the abdomen.
Except for features related to sharing of the male urethra by the urinary and reproductive tracts, and physical relationships to the respective reproductive organs, there are relatively few distinctions between the male and female pelvic urinary and digestive organs.
Muscularducts (25-30 cm long) with narrow lumina that carry urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder.
Run inferiorly from apices of the renal pelves at the hila of the kidneys.
Along the lateral wall of the pelvis and enter the urinary bladder.
Ahollow viscus with strong muscular walls
Characterizedby its distensibility

Variesin size, shape, position, and relationships
according to its content and the state of neighboring viscera
When empty, the adult urinary bladder is lies on the pubic bones and pubic symphysis anteriorly and the prostate (males) or anterior wall of the vagina posteriorly.
Toward the neck of the male bladder, the muscle fibers form the involuntary internal urethral sphincter.
This sphincter contracts during ejaculation to prevent retrograde ejaculation (ejaculatory reflux) of semen into the bladder.
Musculartube that conveys urine from internal urethral orifice of the urinary bladder to external urethral orifice, located at the tip of the glans penis in males.
Alsoprovides an exit for semen (sperms and glandular secretions).
Passes anteroinferiorly from the internal urethral orifice of the urinary bladder, posterior and then inferior to the pubic symphysis, to the external urethral orifice.
The musculature surrounding the internal urethral orifice of the female bladder is not organized into an internal sphincter.
In females, the external urethral orifice is located in the vestibule, the cleft between the labia minora of the external genitalia, directly anterior to the vaginal orifice.
The urethra lies anterior to the vagina (forming an elevation in the anterior vaginal wall).
Slender tubes
Unionof ducts of the seminal glands with ductusdeferentes
Largestaccessory gland of the male reproductive system
Firm, walnutsizep
Surroundsthe prostatic urethra.
The glandular part makes up approximately two thirds of the prostate; the other third is fibromuscular.
Acutaneous sac consisting of 2 layers: heavily pigmented skin and the closely related dartos fascia, a fat-free fascial layer including smooth muscle fibers (dartos muscle) responsible for the rugose (wrinkled) appearance of the scrotum.
Because the dartos muscle attaches to the skin, its contraction causes the scrotum to wrinkle when cold, and assisting the muscles in holding the testes closer to the body, all of which reduces heat loss.
The scrotum is the male homologue of the labia majora in women.
Male gonads—paired ovoid reproductive glands that produce sperms (spermatozoa) and male hormones, primarily testosterone.
Originallydevelop high on the posterior abdominal wall and then descend, normally before birth, through the inguinal canal in the anterior abdominal wall and into the scrotum of the perineum.
An elongated structure on the posterior surface of the testis.
Efferent ductules of the testis transport newly developed sperms to the epididymis.
At the tail of the epididymis, the ductus deferens begins as the continuation of the epididymal duct.
The female internal genital organs include the ovaries, uterine tubes, uterus, and vagina.
The uterine tubes are divisible into four parts, from lateral to medial:
Infundibulum: opens into the peritoneal cavity through the abdominal ostium.
Ampulla: widest and longest part of the tube, which begins at the medial end of the infundibulum; fertilization of the oocyte usually occurs in the ampulla.
Isthmus: t thick-walled part of the tube, which enters the uterine horn.
Uterine part: short intramural segment, opens via the uterine ostium into uterine cavity at the uterine horn.
Theuterus(womb) is a thick-walled, pear-shaped, hollow muscular organ.
The embryo and fetus develop in the uterus.
Its muscular walls adapt to the growth of the fetus and then provide the power for its expulsion during childbirth.
The non-gravid (non-pregnant) uterus usually lies in the lesser pelvis, with its body lying on the urinary bladder and its cervix between the urinary bladder and rectum.
Adistensible musculomembranous tube,
extends from the middle cervix of the uterus
to the vaginal orifice,
the opening at the inferior end of the vagina.

How it seems, How it is.
A humourous exploration of how many foreigners wish Britain was, and how it really is.
You may wish for a Georgian lamppost.
Our street's mostly dark. There's this
Grey thing with a light on the end,
I mean, yeah, it's a lamppost, but not how you'd like it.
You'd love to see a man in a top hat, his
Tails flowing gracefully behind him.
I know a guy with a snap-back cap, who wears
his trousers so low that when he stole from the chippy they caught him cos
he fell over his jeans on the way out.
That happened twice.
There are Scouse over there,
Having a natter, having a chin-wag.
My god those eyebrows really are something.
There's the school bus. Nearly all
My friends get on that. Guess it must be fun,
Laughing with your mates about some geezer on the pavement who is
"Proper fit-like" and munching on midget gems or Mars bars.
We've got a pretty red letter box.
Yeah, over there by the Butcher's,
In front of the chav bench. Yeah, wouldn't go near them
If I were you. Might catch herpes or summat.
And our busses aren't pillar-box red out here. They're
Blue and green, and I wouldn't go on them if I were you,
Lest a peasant sneeze and you'd catch the lurgy.
But we have our rains and our pours,
And our barmy gaffers and piggies,
And our chippies and fit blokes ,
And our swots and our titches,
And our well-chuffed and our codswallap,
And dim twits we have to sort out,
And the jammy twats we want to kick in the goolies because
This place is potty, twee and arse-about-face.
This place is better.
This place is Britain.

In this park there is also a marketplace where the locals will go to eat breakfast after they have exercised and then go pick up the food they need for that day.

In the evening we went to a restaurant to have roast duck pancakes. We were lead to our own private dining room which was nice and we also tried some traditional Chinese liquor (actually didn't taste as bad as I thought it would!) after that we headed to the night market.

With no little despondency we headed back down the way we had come up, on the chair lift, although I was immensely cheered by the sight of a man travelling the other way drop his water bottle into the gorge below.

Nearing the end of his senior season, Tigers forward Shaq Goodwin knows the time is coming when fans will talk about him in the past tense.
So 10 years down the line when his name comes up, what would he want to hear?
First, there was the debate. Would Briarcrest star Austin Nichols really stay home and play for the Memphis Tigers? Or would outside offers, including ones from Duke, Kansas and North Carolina, be too good to pass up?

text: Heyy I'm Jenna but whenever I write anything I put Lani-Joe on. It's what my nanna wanted me to be called. It's kinda got stuck in my head now whenever I write. I'm from England, nearly 15. I love writing but I find that if I stop writing even for a little while I just can't seen to pick up where I left off. I get writers block a lot... Mostly, I like writing things similar to what I like to read. So.... horrors.... paranormal.... and I guess you could say that many of the things I write are almost depressing. The main thing I like to write, which I have varying chuncks off, is about a young girl whose father beats her up, and the boy next door is the one who completely turns her life around. Like... he's her reason for living... I know where I want the story to go, but again, writers block. It drives me insane.... I'm not much of a profile person, never knowing what to write, never really been able to fill them in... so I'm going to leave this off here. Feel free to send me a message if you like :). I'll talk to pretty much anybody :). LaniJoe x

No choice
"He's making you what!?" I exclaim.
William, Eloise, and I are sitting in the trailer that I share with Mason, a fiew breather. Eloise is cross-legged on the floor, clutching her Barbie doll, and William and I are seated on my bed.
"Look, Jingo. I don't want to upset him," the eighteen year-old says, smoothing out my blue and white checkered bed sheets.
"But William! You know that's wrong! It's stealing!" I cry out.
I can't believe William actually wants to go through with this. But even moreso, I can't understand why the ring master wants to do this. The circus has never been about money to him.
Eloise pauses her game of Barbie, and looks up at us with wide eyes. I can tell by her face that she understands the situation.
"I don't have a choice," William says grimly, still refusing to look me in the eyes.
A fly buzzes past my ear and lands on the off-white wall next to me. My box-spring mattress groans as William stands up. If only I could make him see that there's more to life than the circus.
Eloise pipes up, "You always have a choice, William. That's what you told me."
Her blue eyes, sparkling with innocence, are locked onto William's, trying desperately to get him to believe his own words.
"Eloise, I have to be realistic. I'm eighteen, and I've never been to high school. I'm stuck here. This is my only option."
"William--" I try to cut in.
"Enough, Jingo! I'm going to do what dad asked of me. End of discussion."
"I can't just stand by and do nothing about this!"
I stand up from my bed and clench my fists, staring hard at William. He doesn't return my gaze.
"Jingo, I'm sorry. But this is the way it has to be."
With that said, William takes his leave. A slight mist has begun outside, and it's dreadfully humid in the trailer. I quickly switch on the fan in the corner and plop back down on my bed. The fly buzzes by my ear again, and this time I hastily lash out at it. I miss. It flies to the other side of the trailer.
"Jingo, what're we gonna do?" Eloise asks, a fat tear rolling down her pale cheek.
"I don't know," I reply, still feeling a bit numb with frustration.
William is betraying everything he stands for! Not only that, but he's betraying me and Eloise, too.
Eloise stands up and makes her way over to me while smoothing her Barbie's hair. Fresh tears shimmer in her eyes as she sits down next to me.
"Is William gonna ruin his life?" she asks in a whisper, her chin quivering.
My heart breaks for the ten year-old. William and me, well, we must be the closest thing she's ever had to family. And now she must feel like William's abandoning her, the same way I feel.
I reach out my arms and wrap them around her shoulders, and she lays her head on me.
Wiping a strand of blonde hair from her tearful face, I say, "No, baby. No. We'll make sure of that."

Thank-you note scuttles O'Farrell's denial of receiving expensive gift.
The widening scandal over the allegedly corrupt dealings of a company touting for big contracts with the state-owned Sydney Water Corporation has claimed another senior Liberal head.
New South Wales Premier Barry O'Farrell resigned yesterday after falsely denying to a corruption investigation that he had received a A$3000 ($3270) bottle of Penfolds Grange wine from Nick Di Girolamo, then chief executive of Australian Water Holdings (AWH). Di Girolamo was also a prominent Liberal Party fundraiser.
O'Farrell follows Labor's Morris Iemma, Nathan Rees and Kristina Keneally as leaders with only short stints in the top job in the past decade.
His sudden resignation followed the earlier embroiling of federal Assistant Treasurer Arthur Sindinos, forced to step aside when the NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption probed his role in a company linked to the corrupt former state Labor powerbroker, Eddie Obeid.
Obeid was at the centre of several scandals involving senior state Labor figures, but the AWH investigation has spilled over the political fence through a series of senior Liberals named or questioned by the commission.
The allegations have hit Prime Minister Tony Abbott's conservative Government, now slipping behind the Opposition in the polls as the scandal joins a list of other woes. Yesterday Abbott, describing O'Farrell as a friend for 20 years, said he admired the now-former Premier for "an act of integrity, an act of honour ... the like of which we have rarely seen".
"Obviously, as we now know, he innocently, inadvertently misled ICAC and he has taken the utterly honourable step of resigning as Premier."
For O'Farrell there was no other option. He was shown to have misled the commission under oath during an investigation into allegations that people connected with AWH obtained financial gains through "adversely affecting" the official functions of Sydney Water. Investigators allege AWH corruptly overcharged Sydney Water for expenses to fund huge salaries and expensive perks, and channelled taxpayers' money to Liberal fundraisers. A second investigation involves allegations that MPs and other officials corruptly solicited, received and concealed payments from AWH in return for favours.
Counsel assisting the ICAC, Geoffrey Watson, SC, alleged Di Girolamo was trying to "butter up" O'Farrell by presenting him with a bottle of Grange dated May 24, 1959, O'Farrell's birthday. In evidence to the commission on Tuesday, O'Farrell rejected Di Girolamo's claim of sending the wine to congratulate him on his election victory, saying he could not remember the present and had not received the wine. The gift was not included on his declaration of pecuniary interests.
But telephone recordings show a brief call to Di Girolamo the evening of the gift which Di Girolamo said was a thank-you call, and courier records listed the delivery to O'Farrell's home. Yesterday the commission was shown a note to Di Girolamo from O'Farrell, thanking him for "the wonderful wine". On the witness stand, O'Farrell said: "I read the note and accept it is my handwriting, but I still have no recollection about receiving the wine."
Soon afterwards O'Farrell read a statement to the media and declined to take questions. "I still can't recall the receipt of a gift of a bottle of 1959 Grange. But I do accept there is a thank-you note signed by me and as someone who believes in accountability, in responsibility, I accept the consequences of my actions. The evidence I gave to the Independent Commission Against Corruption yesterday was to the best of my knowledge. I believe it to be truthful ... In no way did I seek to mislead, wilfully or otherwise, the ICAC."
Sindinos will remain on the back benches until the ICAC announces its findings.

Question about PIE and JBO impact
hi Blues fans,
I'm in long term draft and was planning to acquire Pietrangelo
I have few quick questions, tks if someone want to contribute
I know this season he had slow down offensively, do you think he will bounce back and will come back +50 pts /year and why not 55-60 range potential on a great year ? Or you expect he will be more a 40-50 pts.
Is the venue of Bouwm will help him or the opposite, at full strength i can see it positive, but what will happen on the powerplay, will he be on the 1st unit or you expect it will be Boumw and shatty ?
Do I have to be concern about injury, he is a fragile guy as they say on Hockeynews ? He's likely to do a 3rd complete season in a row
I will have to give some prospect to get him, but mainly Ryan Murray plus 2 others good prospects (but no future superstar), Murray seems to be Elite but maybe less Offensive than PIE ? Only the points count on my keeper league...
So, i know he's good, so is he a Blue Chip ? He will help me now in my team, and for many years... but who knows what Murray can do to ?
Thank you in advance

Boyan Slat is not only an accomplished inventor, environmentalist and entrepreneur at the mere age of 20, he may also have solved the world's ocean pollution crisis.
While at secondary school, the Dutch teenager dedicated half a year of his life to researching plastics pollution and the issues associated with cleaning it up.
The result of his work was The Ocean Cleanup project, an innovative idea which landed the youngster a spot on the TEDx Delft stage in 2012.
At the time, his ideas were held up as revolutionary but many wondered how feasible it would be to implement his designs.
Well, two years of hard work later, Boyan is back and he and his team have started to test the limits of the self-sustaining eco friendly design which they think might be capable of cleaning the planet's dirty seawater.
The project aims to rid the entire ocean of all plastic within the next 10 years, and hopes to make some money too by collecting the plastic and returning it to land for recycling.
The program, if successful, would work in three stages (extraction, prevention and interception) and involve the building and maintenance of five giant floating sea rigs. An array of floating barriers attached to the rigs will catch and then concentrate the debris.
The project then hopes to expand into rivers and waterways which, Boyan says, are the real cause of the pollution problem. So far the cause has raised 100% of its $2million goal, with the target launch date now set for 2016.
Boyan argues that pollution of the seas might be the next biggest problem our planet faces. If the oceans die, the Earth's biggest supplier of oxygen and carbon dioxide could be lost forever.
And, with the problems that rubbish in the sea can cause for wildlife, animal lovers and environmentalists everywhere will be delighted that someone has a realistic plan for the future of the seas. Good on this guy!

The showstopper for a designer at a fashion event, Yuvraj Singh, sent the media into a tizzy on Saturday (August 23) when he kissed his ex-girlfriend, Kim Sharma, on her cheek, in full public view.
Kim was seated near the stage, when Yuvraj, who was walking back with the designer, spotted her. That's when he momentarily stepped off the ramp to greet the now-married actor. The result was a loud cheer from the audience that left the cricketer rather embarrassed. After the show, the two met outside the venue as well, and exchanged pleasantries.
The couple dated for four years and ended their relationship in 2007, even as rumours of them getting ready to walk down the aisle did the rounds. Some reports suggested that Yuvraj's mother, Shabnam Singh, didn't approve of Kim, while others claimed it was the actor's obsessive behaviour that led to the break-up. Later, Kim was quoted saying that they had compatibility issues. In 2010, she had a hush-hush wedding with Kenyan businessman Ali Punjani and relocated to Nairobi.
Also read: Sportsmens' troubled relationships with celebrity wives, girlfriends
Later, on Simi Garewal's chat show, while talking about his relationship, Yuvraj had said, "Yes, I was going to get married, as she has been the main love of my life. She is married now, so it's not good to talk about her."
The former lovers have bumped into each other a few times since their break-up. On the last such occasion, they were seen having an animated discussion when they met at a suburban eatery.

wikiHow to Grow Daffodils Indoors
Daffodil bulbs require a cold season to grow and bloom. If you plant bulbs outdoors in the autumn, you must wait until the spring for them to bloom, but you can enjoy the blooms much earlier if you choose to grow daffodils indoors. Growing bulbs indoors is known as forcing bulbs. When you force daffodils, you try to replicate the conditions of the cold season they would experience if you had planted them outdoors.
1Water thoroughly
2Place pot in cold storage. The cold treatment will mimic the conditions the bulbs would experience if you had planted them outdoors. Temperatures from 35 to 48 degrees F (1.7 to 8.9 degrees C) are ideal. The bulbs will not grow properly if it is either too cold or too hot #* Cover the soil in the pot with a loose layer of leaves or sawdust to help regulate the temperature.
- Pick a location that is dark and cool. Good options include sheds, garages or refrigerators. In climates where it does not freeze outside, you can dig a hole and bury the plant outside.
- Keep soil moist, but don't overwater.
3Wait for shoots to appear. Most daffodils will require around 12 weeks of cold treatment. You will know your pot is ready to bring to a warmer climate if you see shoots about 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) in height and you see white roots coming out of the drainage holes on the bottom of the pot
4# Place the pot in a warmer location. The temperature should be around 50 degrees F (10 degrees C), and there should be low light. Leave the pot here for 2 to 3 days
5# Move pot to a sunny window. The new location should be 60 to 65 degrees F (15.6 to 18.3 degrees C). Warmer temperatures may cause the plants not to bloom
6#* Rotate the pot daily. Daffodil shoots will lean towards the light source. Turning the pot frequently will keep your plants from leaning in 1 direction.
7Wait for your daffodils to bloom. It typically will take 3 to 5 weeks after the cold treatment before flowers appear, but it will vary based on the variety. Once the plants bloom, the flowers will last for approximately 1 month
- Move the daffodils out of direct sunlight once they've bloomed to prolong the life of the flowers.
Community Q&A
After the flowers die off, should I cut off the stem?wikiHow ContributorYes. This will allow the leaves to collect more food, which reinforces your bulb. After a month, either let them die back, then replace the soil, and start over, or plant outdoors.
After the blooms fall off, can I keep this as an indoor plant?wikiHow ContributorYes. You can keep the daffodils inside even as they bloom.
Is it possible to grow daffodils in a tropical climate?
What do you do with the bulbs once they finished flowering?
How should I care for them after they've bloomed?
- You can cover the pot with an empty box, large pot, or black garbage bag to keep it dark during the cold treatment period if your storage area receives sunlight.
- Longer cold treatment will result in taller plants.
- You can only force daffodil bulbs once. You can plant the bulbs outdoors after forcing, but your plants will not grow if you attempt to force them a second time.
- Don't store your pot in a refrigerator alongside fruits and vegetables. Ripe fruits and vegetables release ethylene gas which can damage the bulbs.
Things You'll Need
- Daffodil bulbs
- Pot and drainage tray
- Peat moss based potting mix
- Sawdust or leaves

The CircleMature
The Hands dragged Kyran to his feet before he could take a breath, his legs wobbled a bit but the two soldiers held him up, their grip on his arm was an iron hold.
Walking nearer to Nataya, he could feel the heat from the Circle pulsating and the power that Nataya had entwined within the drawings of star constellations was remarkable. The light that the Circle itself emitted was like art. But the meaning behind the pretty lights, the warmth and the stars made Kyran's blood run cold.
Drums started as soon as he stood just a few feet away from the Circle at which time the Hands had let go of their iron grip and had moved a fair few feet away. The drums sounded like rolling thunder and they matched the speed of his heart, which was as if he had been running for days without rest. Kyran wished he could run away, but then again where would he run when the Hands and the Sisters were going to follow him?
"It doesn't hurt." Whispered Nataya as she leaned toward Kyran's ear, a small encouraging smile playing on her lips and Kyran smiled back at her, but it was a trying smile a smile that held no meaning.
"Think of me and pray that I don't die." Whispered Kyran, his voice wavered dangerously, he could feel nerves and fear grip him in a tight hold and suddenly his lungs felt as if someone were squeezing all the air out of them.
It was then however, that Nataya planted a small, clear, square cut stone in his palm, but Kyran thought nothing of it and instead was surprised at the sudden contact. Her skin was warm, soft and smooth and instantly Kyran felt the air in his lungs seep back in. Nataya smiled encouragingly at him and was about to say something when the bell tower suddenly started to sing.
It was noon and each and every toll from the bell signalled the coming of his departure from this world.
Mustering all of his courage Kyran stepped inside the Circle at the third toll, heat washed over him like an uncomfortably hot bath and immediately his shirt began to dampen with sweat. Nataya had told him that it didn't hurt, but Kyran was sure that he was going to die by thirst before he would even get to the other world.
The light from the Circle made the world outside shimmer and swirl, and Kyran could only make out shapes of people and buildings. Only Nataya, who was standing just outside the Circle, was the only person he could see vividly among the blobs of colour and weird shapes.
At the fifth toll, a cold wind started but it barely touched his loose clothes or stirred the dust and sand on the floor. At the seventh toll the wind started to pick up, it moved in circles sending the sand and dust around him. At the tenth toll the wind was howling in his ears, Nataya and everything around him had completely disappeared behind the veil of sand and dust and wind. He tried to shout but it was lost in the howling wind. At the twelfth toll, the final bell, the wind intensified and Kyran could no longer open his eyes or breathe or hear anything. The wind blinded him of his senses, and then suddenly Kyran was pulled back by invisible hands their grip on him was like that of the Hands, not letting go.
But they did and Kyran started to fall.

Here is the first paragraph of a news story published on Monday: "He shot to fame by taking unusual objects – notably dead animals such as horses and cows – encasing them in glass and displaying them in galleries as art. But when Damien Hirst discovered that his own diary, containing intimate declarations of love, was going to appear as an exhibit in an east London art show, he had no hesitation in contacting the police."
What is the word "but" doing at the start of the second sentence? There is no contradiction between exhibiting dead animals in art galleries and wanting to protect the privacy of your personal life. News stories love the drama of a contradiction. If we were talking about an artist like Tracey Emin, whose art specialises in personal revelations, there might be one. But in Hirst's case there just isn't. Also, notice the dreadful cliché "shot to fame". Take it out and shoot it.
Foreign invasion: There are tiny common errors that don't matter very much, but newspapers should still avoid them, because each one will annoy somebody. Here is one such, from a story on Monday about domestic servants: "Today the tens of thousands that make their living cooking, cleaning, driving or keeping house for others are more likely to come from overseas and work for ex-pat families than from our own homegrown working class."
"Expat" is an abbreviation of "expatriate". Where did the hyphen come from?
Who he? The campaign for discipline in the use of personal pronouns clearly has some way to go. Alan Hendry writes in from Inverness to draw attention to this, from a sports page article last Saturday about the career of Malcolm Allison: "Bobby Moore's devotion was as strong on the day he died as when, as a young contender at West Ham who one day would take his place in the team and surpass every football dream of a young Englishman, he trailed after him like a faithful spaniel, weighing every word – and laughing at every joke."
It seems that the first he is Moore; his is Allison; the second he is Moore (again); and him is Allison. But it is not certain. A reader not familiar with the details of the two men's careers has no way of knowing whether Moore simply took his place in the team, in the sense of joining it, or whether he took Allison's place.
Leaning sideways: A report on Thursday about the Supreme Court ruling on prenuptial agreements said: "Yesterday Lady Hale leant partial support to her fellow judges." We are used to seeing "lead" when it should be "led", but "leant" for "lent" is rarer. In neither case will the spell-checker save you. For the avoidance of all doubt: the past tense of "lend" is "lent", and the past tense of "lean" is "leant" or "leaned".
Say that again: Thursday's news report on the wedding plans of Russell Brand and Katy Perry began stylishly: "When Barbara Brand gave birth to her only child in a dingy Essex hospital, she probably never imagined that, 35 years later, she would watch him arrive on a white horse at a maharajah's palace before joining guests for a bit of wild-tiger spotting."
The reader, however, was assumed to have a short memory. The third paragraph began: "Brand, 35, and 25-year-old Perry . . ."
I also have a suspicion about that word "dingy". It is possible that the reporter has verified the decorative condition of the hospital in which Brand was born, in which case I apologise. But that "dingy" looks like the sort of thing people feel free to put in for poetic effect. After all, everybody knows that hospitals in Essex in 1975 were pretty dingy.
Old age: Another odd reference to someone's age appeared on the same day in a story about the trial in Belgium of a woman who disposed of a love rival by sabotaging her parachute. The fatal descent was described: "Mrs Van Doren, then 38, jumped that day – with 11 other parachutists – from a small plane flying at 30,000 feet." Why "then" 38? She never got any older.

A child abuse lawyer understands issues related to child abuse and neglect, and child physical or emotional abuse claims can arise in a variety of contexts and motives. Sometimes the young victim tells a relative, who then files a lawsuit; at other times, a government agency such as Child Protective Services may press charges. Because of the victims' tender age, abuse cases frequently are complicated. You may seek a child abuse lawyer whether you have been accused of child abuse, or if you're seeking to file a lawsuit on the victim's behalf.

Arguments still rage about the implications of his evolutionary theory, and skepticism about the value of Darwin's contribution to knowledge is widespread. In this analysis of Darwin's major insights and arguments, Jonathan Howard reasserts the importance of Darwin's work for the development of modern biology. He offers a stimulating view of the famous scientist in a concise, handy format, making it a masterpiece for all Darwinians as well as for all general readers of popular science.

|More information:
"This critical biography, the first on Theodore Dreiser in more than half a century, is the only study to fully weave Dreiser's literary achievement into the context of his life. Jerome Loving gives us a Dreiser for a new generation in an evocation of a writer who boldly swept away Victorian timidity to open the twentieth century in American literature." "Dreiser was a controversial figure in his time, not only because of his literary efforts, which included publication of the brutal and heartbreaking An American Tragedy in 1925, but also because of his personal life, which featured numerous sexual liaisons, included membership in the communist party, merited a 180-page FBI file, and ended in Hollywood. The Last Titan paints a full portrait of the mature Dreiser between the two world wars - through the roaring twenties, the stock market crash, and the Depression - and describes his contact with important figures, from Emma Goldman and H.L. Mencken to two presidents Roosevelt. Tracing Dreiser's literary roots to Hawthorne, Emerson, Thoreau, and especially Whitman, Loving adds a dimension to the writer's thought that has not been fully explored, and reshapes our understanding of his tremendous contribution to American literature in what will surely become the standard biography of one of America's best novelists."--Jacket.

Shedding light on the crystallographic etching of multi-layer graphene at the atomic scale

The controlled etching of graphite and graphene by catalytic hydrogenation is potentially a key engineering route for the fabrication of graphene nanoribbons with atomic precision. The hydrogenation mechanism, though, remains poorly understood. In this study we exploit the benefits of aberration-corrected high-resolution transmission electron microscopy to gain insight to the hydrogenation reaction. The etch tracks are found to be commensurate with the graphite lattice. Catalyst particles at the head of an etch channel are shown to be faceted and the angles between facets are multiples of 30°. Thus, the angles between facets are also commensurate with the graphite lattice. In addition, the results of a post-annealing step suggest that all catalyst particles—even if they are not involved in etching—are actively forming methane during the hydrogenation reaction. Furthermore, the data point against carbon dissolution being a key mechanism during the hydrogenation process.

|Reviews for Voldemort's Lesson
| hybridphoenix chapter 1 . 4/22/2010
You have to declare that that particular secret of flying was not originally conceived by you, lol. Although I must say I'm surprised that Voldemort fancied Douglas Adams' work;)
| Shadows-of-Realm chapter 1 . 11/21/2009
Well... That was odd but hilarious... Great job!
| PurpleArmadillo chapter 1 . 8/31/2009
That was pretty good! I liked how some of the dialog was humorous, especially the part about throwing at the ground but missing. The details here are subtle too but they help the reader visualize the situation, such as Yaxley's reaction to the hissing Nagini, and Snape's first attempt/failure. I always wondered how he managed to learn that. I liked how you ended with the scene where Snape finally puts the trick to good use-for some reason that part always makes me laugh, probably because of the way JKR decsribes McGonagall pointing to the "Snape-shaped hole" in the window. I can just picture the outline of a person with the rest of the glass still intact, like in one of those cartoon shows or something.
| An Aspiring Author chapter 1 . 8/10/2009
very interesting! i really liked it! great job!
| Luna Rapunzel chapter 1 . 7/6/2009
I like this! The idea for it is really original, and you pulled off great characterizations for both Snape and Voldemort.
| Espoir Noir chapter 1 . 7/6/2009
I just love that line 'The trick is to throw yourself at the ground...and miss.' Very well written. Snape especially comes through well, I like the way he thinks in this piece. Voldemort wasn't quite as skilfully done, in particular the line 'he grinned evilly' jarred with me. Maybe because he is so evil anyway, you don't need the adjective. But then, I can't really picture him grinning either. Sorry,I'm getting picky. I really liked it, well done!
| Wendy Brune chapter 1 . 7/5/2009
Interesting story!
I like your explanation of how Voldemort can fly. It makes sense!
"'The trick is, Severus, to throw yourself at the ground… and miss.'"
This is easily my favorite line of the story!
Although I didn't exactly take the time to examine the story, I didn't notice any major grammatical errors!
Overall, good work! This was a nice little one-shot!
| xoxcrescentmoonxox chapter 1 . 5/7/2009
This was very good! Voldemort must be so hard to write, but you did a great job of portraying him; Snape as well. I loved this line, although I'm not sure why: "The trick is, Severus, to throw yourself at the ground… and miss."
Anyway, fantastic job - and nice filling in of a missing moment (i love those) D
| TheWordFountain chapter 1 . 3/14/2009
I think you did a great job with this. Your portrayal of Voldemort and Snape were really spot on and it was quite funny how everything played out. Well done!
| You're Just As Sane As I Am chapter 1 . 10/5/2008
oh! now i get how he landed without dying in the book! he flew! duh...
| theessenceofsyd chapter 1 . 9/28/2008
hm...not one i have seen before...
nice creativity!
| Sara Winters chapter 1 . 9/9/2008
Well, that was certainly different. I would've never thought to use that particular spell for that trick, rather than something far more complicated.
| mrs.kapranos chapter 1 . 8/29/2008
I loved it! This was a great tidbit you have given us; a behind the scenes look, if you will. You kept them all in character very well! Again, absolutly loved it :D
| Leridan chapter 1 . 8/29/2008
I had already read your story, but I forgot to review at the time being.
I like the way the story is set up. Pace, dialogue and description are all in balance.
I do have my doubts about how the theory about the magic to fly works. But since I'm no witch I can't really judge that.
| Gaby Black chapter 1 . 8/29/2008
This was good; Voldemort's characterization was great.

Nicole Kidman tops Hollywood overpaid list
CANBERRA (Reuters) - Nicole Kidman was named the most overpaid celebrity in Hollywood in the second annual list of least bankable stars by U.S. magazine Forbes, taking the top slot from fellow Australian Russell Crowe.
Kidman's films were estimated to only earn $1 for every dollar the Oscar-winning actress was paid compared with $8 a year ago.
"The Invasion," a remake of the 1956 classic "Invasion of the Body Snatchers," even lost $2.68 for every dollar earned by Kidman who was reportedly paid $17 million for her role.
"Despite winning an Oscar for her performance in 2002's "The Hours," Kidman has become the most overpaid celebrity in Hollywood," said Forbes, adding that her upcoming movie "Australia" could give her a boost.
Second in the list came Jennifer Garner, whose movies including "The Kingdom" and "Catch and Release" have underperformed at the box office. Her movies were calculated to earn $3.60 for every $1 she was paid.
Kidman's ex-husband, Tom Cruise, came third in the list with a $4 return for every dollar he was paid, mostly because of the failure of last year's movie "Lions for Lambs." For every dollar the star earned the film returned only $1.88.
Forbes said the ranking was compiled by looking at a star's past three movies and dividing their total earnings by the films' gross income to get the actor's payback figure.
Making up the top 10 of overpaid Hollywood celebrities were Cameron Diaz, Jim Carrey, Nicolas Cage, Drew Barrymore, Will Ferrell and Cate Blanchett.
The actor whose bankability improved most over the past year was Crowe, who was ranked the most overpaid celebrity last year when Kidman was in second place. Continued...

Lost: Will Vincent Survive?
I've just finished watching the first season of Lost on DVD. OK, so I've just confessed to indulging one of my guilty pleasures: watching TV on my computer. Forgive this transgression, but we vets need some mindless diversion from the stacks of journals that await us in our mailboxes when we finally make it home.
To assuage my guilt, I'll give you a vet's perspective on this popular TV series:
In the first days after the crash, who else wondered whether Vincent would be granted water for survival? Where does Vincent get his food? Does anyone ever see him eat? How does he never seem to lose weight, lacerate a pad, or—God forbid—sick up after an unhealthy meal of uni spines and old fish bones?
So what would happen if Vincent fell deathly ill? Would it fall to Jack to treat him? Or would he refuse, in his characteristically petulant, hyper-sweaty way? Here's my take:
Jack: There's nothing in my medical oath that requires me to treat this animal, squander our medical supplies, or waste our precious time on one dog. It's about time we reevaluated our approach to pets on this island. Our survival depends on it!
Vincent: [whining]
Sun: But Jack, how can we deny treatment to another life force? His presence here has consistently reminded us of our humanity. Vincent has cast our inhuman acts of violence into sharp relief against the backdrop of our ability to love and care for him!
Michael: Yeah! And you better save my kid's dog, Bucko. It's the only thing my son has left after his mother's sudden death, his stepfather's aching rejection, a horrific plane crash, and kidnapping by a fiercesome crew of sea bandits!
Sun: Hurry, Jack. He's slipping away!
Jack: Okay, here goes! Aaargh! I think I've got it!
Vincent: [whining]
Sun: Jack! You've done it!
Jack: [holds up a dirty plastic airplane] That's the last time you'll be eating one of these, boy! Now can I go wash my hands?
Am I also alone in thinking it would have been much more fun if Jack was a hotshot veterinarian instead of a boring human surgeon with way too many emotional issues?
If this were Survivor, Vincent would have won long ago for sheer clear-headedness and overall strength of character. I posit he's the real hero of the show. After all, this is the only character you're never manipulated to suspect or dislike in any way. And why is he named Vincent? Ever think about that…? The innocent artiste as ultimate symbol of our humanity interpreted by modern day standards as…a dog?
And now I've said enough.
Perhaps it would make a great plot twist if Vincent was secretly in allegiance with the French guerrilla chick or with the Others. Maybe I'll email some Lost blogger on this...

Regular and intersessional meetings
The Commission holds annual sessions for the duration of one week in the first half of the year, as well as one-day reconvened sessions at the end of each year to consider administrative and budgetary matters. The Commission has a maximum number of eight working days for its session, pursuant to Economic and Social Council resolution 1991/39. In order to examine draft decisions, draft resolutions and specific technical issues, a Committee of the Whole is convened concurrently with the annual session of the Commission.
Inter-sessional meetings of the Commission are convened to finalize the provisional agenda of the Commission; to address organizational and substantive matters; and to provide continuous and effective policy guidance. The Commission also holds informal joint meetings of donor and recipient countries on the planning and formulation of projects, pursuant to its resolution 44/16.
Round table discussions
The agenda of the Commission at each session foresees specific themes to be addressed under the item "Round-table discussions" which replaced the "Thematic debate", starting from 2011. Participants to round-table discussions are nominated by regional groups based on their expertise, to ensure a focused and interactive discussion theme under consideration.
Annual Reports Questionnaire (ARQ)
At the reconvened 53rd session of the Commission on Narcotic Drugs, in December 2010, Member States adopted a revised Annual Report Questionnaire (ARQ), to enable the monitoring of and the biennial reporting to the Commission on the implementation by Member States of the Political Declaration and Plan of Action on International Cooperation towards an Integrated and Balanced Strategy to Counter the World Drug Problem, as well as for the reporting to the Commission mandated by the three international drug control conventions.
