Chapter Two
Lynn's heart was still pounding, but she was willing to accept Marlow's story, however wild it was. She didn't feel like herself today. That dream last night, and the zaps she got from touching Stanley this morning made her think that something supernatural was going on. Even now, with his arm around her shoulders, Lynn felt odd. She felt safe, even in the presence of these strange men, as if Stanley's arm were enough to truly protect her if one of them attacked.
Marlow's eyebrows arched in surprise as Stanley demanded he prove what he was saying. He looked uncertainly back at Spiro and they shared a shrug. He stepped back and studied Lynn. He reached out hesitantly and poked her in the arm. She flinched back, rubbing the spot he'd touched. His fingertips were sharp.
"Ouch!" she said. "Why'd you do that?"
"You must've only just put the ring on," He said to Stanley. "The female shouldn't be able to touch others at all. She'll feel pain if she does."
Lynn sucked in a shocked breath, thinking of this morning again. It was as if Marlow had read her mind. "Pain?"
"Yes," Marlow nodded. "Even from her partner, if he doesn't give her previous permission to touch him."
"Like a zap…" Lynn trailed off, looking sheepishly at Stanley, who's eyes were wide with disbelief.
Marlow hesitated before nodding again. "It turns into a burning later on, you'll notice."
Lynn hugged herself. Stanley continued to glare disbelievingly. Marlow saw this and said, "You need more proof? You'll see in days to come. I've never heard of the bond being used on humans before--even behind the dark border. By now you should have a fair amount of control over her. Go ahead and try that if you want your proof."
"You're crazy," Stanley accused.
"Tell her to do something," Marlow returned impatiently.
Lynn's eyes were wide. She looked up at Stanley fearfully. Her mind couldn't handle this anymore. What other explanation was there for what happened today? What Marlow was saying had to be true. There was something strange going on, if not in Stanley, then certainly inside of Lynn.
"Go ahead," she told him.
. . .
Stanley sighed in irritation. This Marlow wasn't safe to be around. They needed to leave.
"This is ridiculous. I'm not listening to this crap anymore. Come on Lynn," he said. "Let's go."
Lynn turned with Stanley and walked quickly away from Marlow. She glanced back, seeing that Marlow held a smug expression on his face. Stanley kept his arm around her, looking back at Marlow too and frowning as he saw what Lynn had seen. He looked to Lynn and, to his shock, she was crying. Big rolling tears dribbled down her cheeks and dripped off her chin. She looked at Stanley as they walked, her eyes full of sadness and fear.
"What's wrong?" he demanded in a whisper.
"I don't think we should leave," she told him, wiping her eyes.
"But why are you crying?"
"You told me to leave," she said.
"What?" he stopped walking, but she kept going, walking away from him.
"Lynn!" he called.
She kept going, turning back to look at him fearfully.
"Stanley--make it stop--"
Stanley stood watching Lynn fight with herself, his body numb. There was no way any of this was real. Maybe he never actually got out of bed this morning, and this was just a long dream. Lynn's face was crumbling, and she was getting farther and farther away.
"Stop!" Stanley shouted, jolting himself to reacting. He stumbled back a few steps and she stopped walking. The woods were suddenly completely silent. Lynn was sobbing into her hands. Stanley was terrified and confused. He looked at Marlow, who remained silent and still where they'd left him. Spiro was still just shaking his head.
"Call her back now!" Spiro advised nervously. "Please, we want to get this all resolved before anyone else becomes involved."
"Do you believe me now?" Marlow asked them solemnly.
Lynn nodded furiously, her face still hidden. Stanley stood frozen. He didn't understand. What just happened?
Marlow reached into the pocket of his jeans, taking out a vile the length of his hand--filled with red liquid. He beckoned them over to him. Stanley hesitated, but then made himself walk over. He turned around, confused when Lynn didn't follow.
"Order her to do as she wills until you say otherwise," Marlow murmured, ashamedly uncorking the vile and not looking at Stanley.
For a moment Stanley didn't say anything. This was a load of crap. But Lynn was seriously crying. "Uh…Lynn?" Stanley said slowly. "Do what you want until…I tell you not to."
Lynn relaxed her stiff and frightened stance and looked up at him, her hands rubbing away her tears. Her eyes searched his for an answer that he couldn't give her. He waved her over to him and she ran, reaching for him and then drawing back at the last second--afraid of getting shocked again. Stanley frowned at her, not wanting to believe that anything strange would happen if they touched each other. She grabbed a handful of his t-shirt, her eyes wide and afraid, waiting for him to speak. He looked away from her, trying to keep his thoughts from flying all over the place.
"You'll need to drink this," Marlow said, holding out the vile. "It will transport you to our world."
Spiro took another vile from his pocket, looking warily at Marlow. "Both of them?" he asked.
"I fear another brawl coming on if we leave this male behind," Marlow said, giving Stanley a toothy smile, as if Stanley were an angry, brainless animal. Stanley swelled, glaring.
"How do we know you won't just knock us out with that stuff and kill us?" Stanley asked him angrily. His throat was dry. He couldn't believe this was happening. He was really buying this.
"The ring is what I need," Marlow answered. "This Lynn female will be safe until the last few days of summer. By then the ring will have realized that she isn't an elf. Elvin skin changes with the seasons. As summer ends--when the rings realizes what Lynn is--it will spread a poison through her body. To kill her so that it can be taken off of her and given to another elf or destroyed."
"But summer is over in two weeks," Stanley heard fall out of his mouth. He looked at Marlow, wondering if he knew how short two weeks could fly by. "Two weeks," he repeated.
"Marlow, you're telling them too much," Spiro said quietly behind his brother. "Stop."
"I disagree," Marlow countered irritably. "The more they know, the more silent and cooperative they'll be. If they act out while we're…" the brother's shared a wide eyed look that obviously meant they both knew where they'd be. "They'll blow our cover and we'll all end up dead."
"What?" Stanley cut in, panic in his voice. "What did you say?"
Marlow looked at Stanley guiltily. "The bond will progress--affect you in ways much stronger than a human could ever be able to feel naturally." he told him. "By the end of it you'll be so closely bonded that when she dies--" he corrected himself quickly as he caught the horrified look on Lynn's face. "If--if she dies, then you will die with her."
"How should that make us trust you any more?" Stanley demanded, too afraid and confused to work any malice into his tone.
"Well," Marlow answered weakly. "With any luck this will only take one day, so you don't need to worry. I'm meant to meet Katrina tonight. You three can hide in the shadows, and I'll ask her to bond with me and…" he thought about it. "The ring should simply fall off of Lynn and I can then subtly give it to Katrina without her noticing. It should work out fine. Then you can go home."
"Your emotional states will affect your actions." Spiro cut in. "And if your emotional states are well and content, you will act as needed to get this journey finished as quickly as possible."
"So what you're saying is that you won't hurt us because you want us to behave?" Lynn asked, her voice strained.
Marlow chuckled. "That, and we make it our business to leave humans alone if we can help it. The light side of our world is like that--we don't muddle in the affairs of humans on purpose. The dark side is the one you need to watch out for."
"Why?" Stanley asked bitterly.
"They enjoy the torture and death of humans--they won't hesitate to harm you if they find you in our world. Or to harm us, if we're found on their side."
"The ring will protect us though, won't it?" Lynn asked anxiously.
"No. Being bonded does not make you any less susceptible to harm."
"Why did the ring fall into our world in the first place?" Stanley spat angrily.
Marlow rolled his eyes, "You ask so many questions! You need not to know any more than what the situation calls for! And after this is all over and done with, you have to make a magical pact not to speak of it. We don't need humans snooping around our boundaries. For their own safety."
He held out the vile, an impatient and meaningful look on his face. Lynn took a deep breath and reached for it, but Stanley flinched forward to stop her. They met eyes for a moment, and Stanley felt his heart aching. He lost himself in her gaze. Something about her suddenly drew him in, and it made him so angry he wanted to kill someone. He didn't want to believe any of this, but weird things kept happening. He felt his breath leaving his body as he looked at her, afraid for her safety in a way he had never feared for her safety before. Something new was growing inside of him, and Marlow seemed to know all about it. But Stanley couldn't deal with this. He didn't trust Marlow.
Marlow cleared his throat. "You'll only need a small sip of it," he told Lynn. "If you drink it all, then we won't all be able to return."
Lynn's hand shook as she took the vile from Marlow, unable to break eye contact with Stanley. Stanley struggled to let go of his anger while he watched Lynn lift the vile to her lips. She inhaled it's fumes before drinking, and she smiled at Stanley anxiously.
"It smells like candy," she told him.
Stanley couldn't smile back at her. He was too afraid. He stepped forward, touching her elbow. She froze as she tilted the vile up, and Stanley felt a strange electrical current pass between them. She was trembling visibly as she looked at him, and he closed his hand completely around her arm, worried for her.
Marlow made no comment to the strangeness that passed between them. He waited patiently.
.. .. ..
Lynn quickly threw the vile back and poured half its contents down her throat. It floated over her tongue like a cotton candy cloud, releasing sweet flavored gas as it went down. She inhaled it with a gasp, and it filled her body--making her numb and happy. As she exhaled, pink smoke drifted out of her lungs. She barely felt or heard Stanley as he panicked and threw his arms out to catch her. She felt her body falling asleep and she smiled, sinking into him and letting herself fall down into a dreamy place where no one could harm her and the world was at peace.
.. .. ..
Marlow was back in his own world, sitting by a fire he'd made in the middle of the forest, not far from Katrina's. Spiro sat across from him, puffing so much blue smoke he almost wasn't visible. Neither of them spoke. They'd put the sleeping humans in their own tent close by, with the door flap open in case they woke up before it was time. Marlow sat feeling overwhelmed with worry and guilt. How could he have let this happen?
It wasn't yet time to meet Katrina, the moon wasn't directly above them in the sky. They had about another hour, but Marlow glanced skyward so often his neck was starting to hurt. He didn't know what to do. He was so nervous his stomach ached. He'd never imagined the situation could get so out of hand. He looked at the humans. The male was grunting in his sleep, and the sound of it made Marlow lean closer to listen. Unlike the affect the transportation potion had on elves, it put the humans into a deep sleep they couldn't be roused from until it wore off. Stanley and the female, Lynn, shared a blanket but made no contact with one another. Stanley seemed to be dreaming of her though. He was muttering something, and when Marlow leaned to hear, he found that it was the female's name.
Bristling with embarrassment, Marlow scooted back out of hearing range. It was not his business to witness such things.
The humans slept long after the time had come for Marlow to meet Katrina. The moon was in position, and he and Spiro stamped out the fire to hide themselves. Spiro stayed by the humans' tent, where he would stay until Marlow returned to retrieve the ring.
"You're absolutely sure you want to go through with this?" Spiro asked his brother seriously, a hand on his shoulder.
Marlow took a deep breath, feeling jittery and excited, and also sickeningly nervous. "Of course I do," he answered. "I love her. Besides, I don't have much choice now anyway." He forced a laugh and jerked his head in the direction of the humans. Spiro nodded, looking concerned.
"Alright," he told Marlow. "Take a puff of this, it'll calm you right down."
"I doubt--" Marlow started, but Spiro was already shoving the pipe in his mouth. He inhaled in surprise, and felt himself relax. Leave it to Spiro to slip him some pipe before his big move. He exhaled, coughing pink and blue smoke.
"There you go, brother" Spiro patted him on the back. "Better take another puff, there. Make all that smoke love. Exhale the worry, it'll do you good."
Marlow took another puff, and this time, feeling nauseous, coughed green and pink smoke.
"Oops," Spiro said innocently, slapping Marlow's back again and putting the pipe away. "You'll do fine, get up there. I'll be waiting with the ring when you get back."
Marlow, feeling lightheaded but ready for action, grinned at his brother and made his way towards Katrina's.
She wasn't waiting for him underneath the tree when he got there, so he supposed she might be up in the house. He felt around for the ladder, climbing somewhat clumsily to the deck. Once up there, he took the time to smooth his hair a bit and straighten his clothes, then he entered through the door. The house was empty.
He stood for several long moments, his light headedness fading as anxiety set in again. This wasn't right. Katrina was never one to be late. She'd said she'd be back this evening late, which always meant when the moon was high. He went back outside and peered between the swaying branches. There was the moon, big and bright. Perhaps this was a one time thing, Marlow tried to calm himself. He went back inside to wait on her bed for her.
Hours passed and she never came. Finally, as dawn arrived, Marlow made his way back down the tree and into the woods where Spiro was waiting for him. His eyes were bloodshot tired and every part of him ached from how tensely he'd sat, all night long, waiting for her. Images of her being killed by light side dwellers patrolling at night passed through his mind, along with images of her being imprisoned or trapped on the dark side by her family. He didn't know what to do.
Spiro appeared to have stayed awake all night too, and sat smoking his pipe by the empty fire pit, looking as exhausted as Marlow felt. As Marlow came through the brush, Spiro leapt to his feet, looking angry.
"Where have you been?" he demanded of Marlow. "It's DAWN."
Marlow said nothing. He walked calmly towards his brother and snatched the pipe out of his hand, inhaling long and hard from it as he paced back and forth. He exhaled black and white smoke, thick with pain and fear. Spiro dropped his anger at once.
"Marlow," he said. "What happened?"
Marlow shook his head, at a loss for words. Spiro watched him pace a few more times, and then stuck his arm out to stop him.
"Did she reject you?" he asked seriously. "Are you hurt?"
Marlow shook his head again.
"Well?" Spiro pressed.
Marlow opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out. He took another long breath from the pipe, and on exhale he said, "She wasn't there."
Spiro frowned. "Not there? And you waited the entire night?"
Marlow nodded, staring into space. "She's never not been there before," he said softly. "She's never even been late. I don't…" He stopped, unable to go on. He closed his eyes, and, after hours of holding them in, let his tears flow free. Spiro put an arm around his shoulders and squeezed.
"You must just have misunderstood her meaning," he assured Marlow gently. "She might have meant tomorrow."
Marlow shook his head. "That's not possible. We're always very clear."
` Spiro frowned. "Well, where do you think she is?"
Marlow let out a strangled sob and put his forehead in his hand, giving Spiro his answer. Spiro nodded, patting his back lightly. "It's possible, brother…I'm so sorry."
Marlow closed his eyes, fighting to regain control over himself. He and Katrina had a love that was so powerful, it was almost as if they were already bonded. He didn't believe that she had died, but he felt, deep within, that she was in danger. He had to find her. He lifted his head to look at Spiro, stepping away.
"We have to look for her," he said, clearing his throat and regaining control.
Spiro's eyes widened, and he took his pipe back from Marlow, putting it in his mouth. "We can't."
Marlow glared at him, daring him to go on.
"It's just…" Spiro said carefully, holding up a hand to stop Marlow from exploding. "We can't just go around asking if a certain dark side dweller has been seen recently. That's beyond suspicious. I won't lose my head over this, Marlow. There has to be some other way."
Marlow thought about it, frowning at the ground. Spiro sighed.
"You must have a decent connection set up with her by now, even without a bond." he told Marlow. "Try to see where she is."
Marlow felt himself blush darkly. He hadn't thought of using his gift to locate her. How stupid of him. It embarrassed him to think of Spiro seeing him though. Spiro sensed this in his brother's thoughts, and rolled his eyes.
"Alright," he said. "I'll turn away."
Marlow took a deep breath, turning and walking a ways away from Spiro to sit on the ground. Once he'd made sure Spiro's back was turned, he relaxed and closed his eyes, focusing his thoughts on Katrina. It was painful to think of her, after the night he'd been through, but he had to try. He had to see if he could locate her. He put his hands over his eyes to block the sun, which was rising quickly over the tops of the trees. He thought of her face, her smooth skin and glowing blue eyes. He thought of her hair in his hands, of her warmth, her scent.
There was silence, broken by nothing but the sound of his own heart beating. He listened, straining his ears inward, to hear his mind tell him where she was. All outside sounds were silenced. Suddenly, a second heartbeat joined his, and he thrilled. It was hers, she was alive. He strained harder, searching with his eyes. A vision swam in front of him, and he pushed to make it clear. There she was, sitting in a dark room, crying. She looked scared. He knew she was on the dark side. She was trapped there.
Quick as it came, it faded away. The sound of her heart was silenced, and his eyes saw nothing but the darkness behind his hands. He removed them, feeling dazed, and turned to face Spiro.
"Spiro!" he called, finding himself too weak yet to stand.
Spiro turned, looking at him with raised eyebrows.
"She's on the dark side," said Marlow urgently. "She's being held there. We have to rescue her."
"Rescue her," Spiro repeated flatly, as if he were at the end of his rope. He took his pipe out and lit it, puffing over and over until his head was completely engulfed with the white smoke of fear and the deep, red smoke of anger. Marlow didn't move, waiting for an answer.
"We could die," Spiro's voice said finally. "We probably will."
"Would you let the humans die?" Marlow asked him. "Because if we don't find Katrina soon, they will."
Anxious blue smoke joined the mix around Spiro's head, and there was a long pause. "Nobody has ever purposefully gone over the dark border to rescue someone," he went on, voice still flat.
"Right," Marlow agreed, still waiting.
There was a heavy sigh, which Marlow took as a yes.
"Thank you, Spiro. Thank you."
"We'll need to travel by day only, and keep a fire going all night for protection. We should go home and get supplies." Spiro's voice was gaining emotion, and Marlow assumed the pipe was working it's magic on him. The smoke was clearing as Spiro calmed down, turning a soft, soothing yellow.
"Alright!" said Marlow, getting to his feet. "That potion should be worn off by now. Let's wake the humans."
. . .
Deep in the unnatural sleep, Stanley dreamed. He was in an orange room. An oversized bed filled most of it. There were peach curtains drawn around the bed, but through a break in them he could see two open doors that led out to a terrace. Lynn stood on it, leaning and looking out into the night. Mesmerized by the sight of her, he quietly climbed off of the bed and stood behind her.
She sighed as she absorbed the view. He was distracted only by her though. Her normally conservatively dressed body was draped in transparent orange and red fabrics--all wrapped around her slim frame to make an elaborate dress. She wore nothing under it. No shoes. No socks. No extras. Her hair was swept up in a jumbled pile on top of her head. Her skin was beautiful in the moonlight, her hands gripping the fence of the terrace tightly. Stanley reached for her, and she drew in a quick breath, shivering as he touched her.
He found his hands on her shoulders, sliding down her arms. He pressed himself against the back of her, afraid and not knowing why he was letting himself do this. But it didn't matter, because he was leaning down and kissing her neck, and her skin tasted so sweet, and she made the most amazing sound. He breathed her in, turning her around to face him. She was so close, and as he leaned down she lifted her chin, her lips brushing his before he was ready. Soft and warm, a powerful mixture of surprise and relief washed over him. He needed this kiss. He needed her. His body reacted without his mind, and he lifted her off the ground, kissing her deeply. Lynn clung to him, her small hands gripping his hair for dear life.
.. .. ..
Someone was shaking Stanley's shoulder. Stanley groggily pushed them off.
"Leave me alone," he grumbled, turning on his side and hiding his face in his hands.
"You'll want to calm yourself before she wakes," Marlow warned him, poking his shoulder again.
Stanley stiffened at the sound of the voice. No. He opened his eyes and looked around himself, horrified. It hadn't been a dream. He had no idea where he was. Lynn was next to him, wrapped in a green blanket, just barely not in contact with him. Marlow was leaning in through the gap of their tent, waiting to see if he was awake. Stanley glared. "Where are we?" he demanded.
Marlow backed out of the tent and disappeared behind the door flap, which fell closed. Stanley quickly followed, careful to leave Lynn sleeping.
It was early morning in a strange new world. Stanley's jaw dropped as he took it all in. They were in a forest clearing, completely surrounded by tall, red barked trees. The sky was deep turquoise, fading to red and pink as the sun rose. The trees reached so high Stanley had to squint to make out the tops, and they gave off a strong, sweet, unnamable scent that made Stanley feel calm. It was a moment before he realized that the scent was actually coming from Spiro, who sat close by the tent, smoking his pipe. Stanley was shocked to see that with each exhale, a different colored smoke appeared. White, blue, yellow. He wondered what the colors meant, and if they were making him high. He covered his mouth and nose with his hand, glaring.
"What are you trying to do with that?" he snapped at Spiro. "Keep it away from me."
Spiro looked surprised, glancing from his pipe to Stanley. "I apologize," he said, putting it away. "It keeps me calm."
Stanley took his hand away from his face, still glaring.
Marlow stood, waiting for Stanley to fully come out of the tent.
"Wake the female as well, please." he told Stanley. "It's time for us to go."
"Go where?" asked Stanley. "I thought you said this would only take one day."
"The circumstances have changed," said Marlow, his face tight. "Please, wake her and I will explain."
Stanley sighed, going back into the tent and sitting down. The door flap fell closed again, giving him momentary privacy. He felt foggy. He ran his hands over his face, breathing deeply and trying to forget what he'd dreamed so he could focus on the situation. It was hard. Images passed behind his eyes as if he were still asleep. He uncovered his face and looked at Lynn. She lay with one hand tucked under her cheek, and even sleeping, looked beautiful. Her hair was a mess, her cheeks flushed from the heat. He pulled the blanket off of her, and immediately regretted it. Her shirt had hiked it's way up in her sleep, and revealed the smooth skin of her stomach. Stanley felt his face get hot, and quickly threw the blanket back over her.
"Lynn," he said gently. "Get up."
This all seemed like a big joke; a bad dream. He wondered if he'd ever truly wake up.

Valentine's Day is a popular time for using the internet to make purchases of flowers and gifts. I have used the world wide web for this purpose before and have been satisfied with the results. But rather than access the same sites I have used in the past, I decided to try an entirely different web service for my shopping. The service I chose was **FTD.com**, the on- line web site for FTD, the world's oldest floral service business. **Web Store Commentary:** I have used FTD.com a few times and my experiences have been positive. First of all, I like the arrangement of the web site and the ease of shopping. Once you pick the desired category, you can then sort by price (either ascending or descending) or you can narrow your search down to include only those items that fit your budget by defining a specific cutoff price. Once you click on "order now", the next screen will tell you all about the product. If you like what you see, then you can enter the recipient's zip code and click "add to cart". FTD.com allows you to select the delivery date of your choosing, up to about five weeks in advance. This is a nice feature because it allows customers to make a purchase ahead of time and avoid putting things off until it's too late and the special occasion has passed. This is a good idea because, without it, there is a chance you might forget to make the purchase in a timely manner. What was supposed to be a gift for a specific occasion could end up a belated present instead. One thing that does bother me a little about FTD.com is its basically false claim that the delivery is included in the price of each item. They tell you this, then they slap you with a "service charge", which can range between $10 and $15. This charge is, of course, to cover all the expenses related to handling and shipping. I would like it better if FTD.com just came forward and stopped the obvious b.s. Anyone can see that this charge is related to shipping (at least partially) and its obvious that this is nothing more than a sales ploy to get people to think they are getting something (in this case, delivery) free of any charges. Speaking of shipping charges (or "service" charges), they are slightly different from one item to the next. FTD.com offers standard shipping (within three days), two- day shipping, next day shipping, and Saturday delivery. Unless you need something desperately, you should most definitely avoid these expedited shipping methods. A product that sold for, say, $40 can easily see its price increase to $75 if you choose Saturday delivery, making it a foolish buying decision. Again, this illustrates the importance of placing orders early and selecting a future delivery date to avoid these high prices for shipping (or "service"). You can setup personal e-mail reminders for important holidays and events, to make sure you don't forget. This is a nice added service that can be activated free of charge by logging back into the site and following the links to "My Account" and "My Reminders". You can also register names and mailing addresses in your personalized address book to make the ordering process even faster in the future. **Bottom Line Viewpoint:**
Overall, I am satisfied with my FTD.com experience. Will I try other on- line floral services in the future? Probably, yes, because I like to try different services when I shop on- line. But FTD.com will still rank high on my list of floral services on the world wide web. They came through for me with flying colors, delivering my product in excellent condition within the promised time frame.

I have used FTD in the past and never had a problem. Up until this past week I definitely would have recommended them. However, this last experience used up any patience I normally show and it definitely used up any second chances!
On the Sunday night before Thanksgiving, my husband ordered me roses to be delivered to my job. They were to arrive on Tuesday. Late Tuesday afternoon they show up via Fed Ex. I noticed on the shipping label that they were mailed out on Monday. When I opened the box, I found the flowers were already dying. They weren't shipped in any water. No floral foam or individual vials for each stem. Because of FTD's guarantee that all their flowers will arrive in "exceptional" condition, I called to say something. I explained that the flowers didn't ship in any water and because of that they were almost dead. The sales rep apologized and said they would re-send but the earilest they could would be on Saturday. I said that was fine but they would need to be delivered to my home on that day. The rep verified my home address and said they'd be there Saturday.
Late Saturday morning I get a phone call from my job letting me know that flowers were just delivered. I couldn't beleive it. I asked them to open them for me. She did. Again, no water and they were dying. I called FTD right away to find out why they were shipped to the wrong address. They looked up the info and said they had an address of *****. The address she quoted was my house number with my last name instead of my street name! So instead of calling me when they couldn't locate that address, they just delivered to my job instead. Again the rep apologized and said they would resend but the earliest they could come would be Wednesday. I said that was fine but by then I would be back to work and they should be delivered there. Again, the address was verified and I hung up.
Saturday night I get a phone call from DHL saying they need me to contact them with a better address for a delivery they have for me. Seeing as I wasn't expecting the delivery until Wed., I called DHL on Monday morning. They verified my address as my house number and last name! I was furious! Not at DHL but with FTD. I gave the DHL rep the correct job address and he said they would "redeliver" that afternoon. I thought this was odd since they weren't supposed to come until Wed. Anyway.....they don't come on Monday but do arrive on Tuesday. Guess what? They're not in water and they're dying!!!
Fed up, I called FTD and wanted to speak to a supervisor. I was told they weren't available but the rep on the phone wanted to help. In the end I told them I didn't want any more flowers. I just wanted my husbands account refunded. It took a while but she finally said she would refund me the cost of the flowers but not the cost of delivery because they did deliver. I argued that I shouldn't be stuck with a delivery charge for dead flowers but she wouldn't budge. At this point, I didn't really care much anymore. I agreed to the rebate of the flowers. I was told the credit should appear on my husband's account in 3 or 4 days.
So, today is Wed....the day yesterdays delivery was supposed to show up. Guess what just came? You got it....more flowers!!!! These too were dying but not as bad as the other 3 dozen! I won't call FTD again but I don't care if I never see another rose!!!

Comments about FTD.com:
I ordered flowers for Valentines Day. Paid extra for morning delivery.
They didn't come until the next day and were damaged by UPS.
Got someone from India on the phone could barely understand him.
They will only refund the cost of the flowers which weren't what I ordered at all and were damaged.
Comments about FTD.com:
Sent flowers to my mom on her 61st wedding anniversary, my dad died September so wanted to let her know the day was remembered. Unfortunately flowers never arrived. I emailed once and called 3 times with no satisfactory result. On the 3rd phone call I was offered a 'free' upgrade because the flowers would be delivered a day LATE. Needless to say I cancelled the order, a day late will not work. What really bothers me is that I emailed in the morning to check the status and was told someone would get back to me regarding the delivery, never heard from anyone. Can't express my absolute disappointment in FTD, it's been a tough time for my family and they have added to the pain. Never again will I use FTD. Honestly I would give them -1 stars if I could.
Comments about FTD.com:
FTD messed up! I put in a complaint, they confirmed receipt of my complaint and told me they would follow up; however they never followed up. Actually contacted them twice – as I say, mistakes happen, people get busy, reminders are okay – but not responding is a business sin!
Keeping the short – Mother's Day, flowers sent from son to mother. Mother received a plant – it was a nice plant and that's why I gave two stars instead of one. Mother reads lovely card from son and it is signed "Kathy". Our son's name is not Kathy!
I, the husband, did not want our son to know we got the wrong gift so I thought I would handle it myself. That's when I contacted customer service; they replied stating that they would get back to me; they never replied.
I have now read other reviews and it seems like FTD screws up a lot! I have no reason to utilize them nor recommend them to anyone.

Comments about FTD.com:
I never got my flowers and spent 3 hours trying to, and was only offered a refund or the flowers-4 days late:( super bummed and then got hung up on while trying to get it taken care of.
Comments about FTD.com:
Placed an order well in advance of Mother's Day, they emailed the day of delivery that the vase was not available. I called cs person was hard to understand so I asked to speak to a supervisor. I was on hold for 27 minutes. I agreed to a vase substitution but then found out the delivery was made a day late. I followed up with a call again and was told a supervisor would call me back. My issues have not been resolved. Wrong vase, late delivery, horrible customer service. Good Luck dealing with FTD.

Comments about FTD.com:
I ordered some flowers for a friend of mine to be sent to her job. She later told me she wasn't going to be there that particular day so i had the day changed. I asked them to also have them sent by a certain time. I didn't hear anything from them so i called,they never changed the date and they could never get in touch with the florists..what kind of communication is this so i just canceled the order.

Comments about FTD.com:
Everything about FTD is horrible. I am so mad at myself for not reading their reviews first.
The flowers look hideous. They look like they've been run over 100 times. The customer service is beyond horrible. I placed an order online with a specific delivery date; when I received the confirmation email the date was different; 1st person I talked to said he switched it; 2nd person I talked to said it was never switched and she switched it; 3rd person I talked to said that neither person switch the date and that she would have to cancel the order then replace it because they don't have that capability; 4th person I talked to said the first order is still open and that it is going to be delivered on a totally different date. This place is absolutely the worst.
Comments about FTD.com:
My husband had flowers delivered early for Valentine's Day. The flowers arrived early Friday morning in a box with no vials of water, and were mostly dead. Please note: the flowers were shipped on Wednesday; for 2 days they remained in a box with no water. When my husband called customer service, their response was that the flowers will take 3 days to bloom. Now, im no flower expert, but from my understanding, dead flowers generally don't bloom.

Dealers say there is a big seller doing the rounds who is responsible for much of the deterioration in the price. A whopping 46.5m shares changed hands yesterday and some large lines went through on the ticker today, including two totalling 2.5m at the 100p level.
It was thought shareholders would benefit from the merger of Carlton and Granada with cost-savings alone bringing an immediate boost. But that has not happened and, as shareholders have found to their cost, the value of the enlarged company has fallen by almost onethird since the start of the year.
At the same time, chief executive Charles Allen has come under pressure to go. Some institutional shareholders would like to see former BBC director-general Greg Dyke get the job.
Spare a thought for investors who picked up 28.7m shares, or 1.5%, of satellite broadcaster BSkyB last Friday. US securities house Goldman Sachs placed them at 599p.
Today the price slumped 114p to 488p in the wake of full-year numbers. They proved to be in line with expectations but fourth-quarter new-subscriber numbers of 81,000 fell well short of the 155,000 the market had pencilled in.
Could it be the seller of that stock knew something the rest of us did not? One thing is for sure, buyers are nursing a loss of 81p a share.
Trading generally proved drab, with the FTSE 100 index dipping below 4400 before recovering slightly to show a 21.60 loss at 4408.10, following falls for the Dow overnight in New York.
This will be a week most investors will want to forget. Interest rates are set to rise tomorrow and the price of Brent crude has hit $40.75.
Investors have also been left nursing big falls in Royal Bank of Scotland, up 23p at 1533p, and BOC, up 1p at 914 1/2p, on the back of trading news.
Online banking group Egg has been another casualty after Prudential's decision yesterday to scrap the auction of its 79% stake.
The price slumped another 4 3/4p to 99 1/4p today with four lines totalling 63.84m shares going through at prices between 93p and 94p. Broker Cazenove was reckoned to have executed most of the business. This was the signal for director Mark Nancarrow to pick up an extra 154,505 shares, taking his total holding to 343,282.
Online travel agent Lastminute fell 8p to a low of 126p ahead of results tomorrow. Rival Expedia delivered a profits alert in the US yesterday. Ebookers, down 5p at 133 3/4p, rocked the City with a profits warning last month.
Carphone Warehouse retreated 3 3/4p to 134 1/4p after director Geoffroy de Bezieux sold 2m shares at 135p. It cuts his total holding to 9.9m, or 1%, and he has given assurances not to sell more than 1.5m in the next two years.
It was the first day of dealings on Aim for exploration and mineral development group Greystar Resources following a placing by broker Ocean Equities at 100p, valuing the company at £25m. Greystar is raising £5.1m to develop its wholly-owned Angostura gold and silver project in north-east Columbia. The price settled at 107 1/2p.
Medsea Estates Group also made its debut. Shares in the holiday homes estate agency based in Spain opened at 86 1/2p before settling at 88 1/2p.

Disclaimer: I own none of One Piece that goes to Eiichiro Oda….. It's sad I know BUT I do own my Ocs' and the situations I put them in!
Authors Note: So just to let you know this is my first posting something on here but not my first fanfic…. And I do realize that you won't get some of these things but they are drabbles keep in mind (to stories that I have in my head but haven't written yet hehe). Hopefully I'll be posting a lot of these drabbles because I'm already down to 39 and as the titles says they'll be more or less drabbles meaning they'll be above or less than 100 words. What can I say? I get carried away. p.s. pls don't mind the ooc'ness…ness 'tis awhile ago and was the first attempt for all.
Characters-well mine and their pairing(orders in appearance!) Shanks and Minori/Tru, Sanji and Luna, Zoro and Tsuki
#1 Happy (Shanks)
Join the Marines? Or do I marry a guy that's 45 years older than me? Either way I lose my freedom.
I should've left with him, my brother. Those seven years ago even if I was I was 10 and he trying to murder me later.
Hah! Because of him our "father" lost all trust in me. Marrying me off to a man 5 years younger than he is!
Oh, well… I guess I've made up my mind. I walked out of the guest room. Knocked on my father's office door, "Come in!" he answered. I walked in.
"Father, I've made up my mind. I choose to become a Marine and fulfill the duties my brother couldn't." At first I could tell he didn't like the answer but the last part got to him, he nodded and seemed pleased. I walked out.
Happy I am not.
SO that was the first 'drabble' peeps haha well to go into further detail these are things that happen in the past and probably will be in or not be in the story whenever I do write them down- if that made any sense.

Australia is "no longer on track" to meet its 2020 emissions target and the Abbott government's decision to axe the carbon tax is to blame, the United Nations has found.
The 2014 Emissions Gap Report, prepared by the UN Environment Programme, names Australia among four international pariah states that will require further action to meet their governments' emissions pledges.
Instead of hitting a target of 555 million tonnes of CO2 in 2020, Australia was on track to produce between 685 and 710 million tonnes, the report said.
"Four parties – Australia, Canada, Mexico, and the US – are likely to require further action and/or purchased offsets in order to meet their pledges, according to government and independent estimates," the report said.
"Australia had been on track to meet its pledge in part through its carbon pricing mechanism, but this mechanism was abolished on 1 July 2014."
In a section of the report comparing countries' pledges, trajectories and recent policy developments, the authors state in relation to Australia: "New government replaced carbon-pricing mechanism with Emission Reduction Fund. This results in an increase in projected emissions for 2020."
Labor environment spokesman Mark Butler said the report showed up the Prime Minister's claim at the G20 summit in Brisbane that Australia that would "deliver" on its emissions targets.
"World leaders, including some of Australia's largest trading partners, have pledged to increase their emissions reduction targets," he said.
"Tony Abbott would rather pay polluters to pollute and keep his head in the sand."
Domestic think tanks on both sides of the political spectrum, including the left-leaning Australia Institute and free-market Institute of Public Affairs, have previously criticised the Direct Action policy as ineffective.
But Environment Minister Greg Hunt has maintained that the policy will meet Australia's target of reducing emissions by 5 per cent on 2000 levels by 2020.
On the positive side, the UNEP report found Australia had made an effort to increase energy inefficiency by reducing transmission and distribution losses across power networks. The measures also helped to reduce "fuel poverty", where energy services are too expensive to maintain healthy living conditions, the report said.
The report found Mexico and the US had taken steps that would bring both countries nearer to meeting their emissions pledges, but that they still had more to do. South Korea may also require further action but this could not be verified, the report's authors said.

We thank Dr. BaHammam for showing interest in our study.1 Regarding the higher prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea observed in our study when compared with his, there are fundamental differences between the two studies. In the study by BaHammam et al,2 apart from being limited by a much smaller sample size (n = 50), patients with both acute myocardial infarction (n = 34) and unstable angina (n = 16) were included. There was no mention of the treatment administered (ie, revascularization vs medical therapy). On the other hand, all patients recruited into our study had ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and were successfully treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention. A direct comparison between the two studies, in our opinion, is inappropriate.
In our study,1 only clinically stable and conscious patients were recruited. None of our recruited patients received sedation during hospitalization. It is extremely unlikely that the patients, during the acute phase of myocardial infarction, had consumed alcohol. Chronic alcoholism, COPD, and neurologic disease were not exclusion criteria in our study. But our study is a real-world study that aimed to detect obstructive sleep apnea in patients who had been admitted to the hospital with ST-segment myocardial infarction. The clinical relevance would have been significantly reduced if patients with these concomitant conditions had been excluded. The fact of the matter is obstructive sleep apnea was present in these patients during the acute period of myocardial infarction, and it is important to identify them because of the potential adverse consequences on cardiovascular hemodynamics.
Studies2,3 on the diagnostic value of high apnea-hypopnea index detected during the acute phase of cardiovascular events are too small to be conclusive, and the data are conflicting. Therefore, we believe our "hypothesis," which is stated in the "Discussion" section of our article, is reasonable.

Alpinestars Paragon Protective Shirt
A back protector that can double as a hydration pack Sounds pretty good to us. It must've sounded pretty good to the designers over at Alpinestars, too, because they created the Paragon Protective Shirt, a stretchy mesh jacket that comes with a CE certified back protector that can be removed, replaced, and swapped out for a hydration reservoir when long XC days call for more water than impact protection. The back panel also boasts dual cutouts that let you direct the hose either over your shoulder or under your arm, while the front left shoulder features a tube loop that makes sure the hose stays where you can reach it. As you'd expect, the stretch mesh body fabric of the Paragon is designed to sit close to your skin, the better to slide comfortably under a jersey. It's also extremely lightweight and breathable, so it won't weigh you down or trap sweat, and it conceals two padded side pockets designed to hold small gear like gloves or a multitool. Additionally, Alpinestars integrated a padded zippered pocket at the back designed to hold your phone, because if you don't get pictures of your buddy sending it, it didn't actually happen.

Location: Environmental Microbial & Food Safety Laboratory2011 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416)
1. Inactivation of pathogens and prevention of cross-contamination through optimization of produce wash system design and operation; 2. Development of innovative washing processes and technologies; and 3. Prevention of pathogen proliferation in supply chain.
1b. Approach (from AD-416)
This project takes a system-based and trans-disciplinary approach to address food safety issues of leafy green vegetables. The project involves research in the fields of mechanical engineering, microbiology, post-harvest technology, and food processing. "Speciality Crop Research Initiative."
3. Progress Report
Chlorine is widely used as a sanitizer during fresh-cut wash operations. However, the large amount of organic materials in the exudates released by lettuce cutting depletes free chlorine rapidly, resulting in the potential for pathogen survival and cross-contamination. We evaluated various options including a rinse step between cutting and washing on removing organic load without incurring additional water usage. We demonstrated that a rinse after cutting and prior to washing can cost-effectively reduce water quality deterioration and retain sanitizer efficacy on pathogen survival during fresh-cut wash operations. Intensive research has been conducted in the proposed research areas and the progress of this project has been closely monitored by the ADODR via frequent contact with our stakeholder advisory board members, the Co-PIs from University of Illinois, University of California, North Carolinas State University, and University of Arizona, via conference calls and e-mail communications.

Booknerd2 replied to Mourneblade's topic in E10: The Winds of WinterThe little gloved "hush" hand that was raised to indicate silence….uh, immediately. I died laughing. Just the best. I didn't expect it. Every nuance, gesture, movement, expression, her eyes, and her poise, along with the matter of fact, scathing verbal deliveries….just perfect and balanced. I look forward to any scenes she's in next season. Totally get a kick out of her character.
Some wondered as they sat there, if they should just appoint Lady Mormont and be done with it.
Hi Wylla.
And still he has to talk about Catelyn….
Oh, this can't be good.
I'm not a Stark….oh, here we go...
The hell with Dumbledore's office…
I totally did not realize that. Lol! I'll get my blue roses ready, I guess.
Oh, nice focus on Lyanna. Dying to see how much.
Booknerd2 replied to Booknerd2's topic in General (ASoIaF)Hey, I, for one, got lulled on a first read when I was trying to absorb so much info and reflect on past books, and I get side-tracked. I was so focused on personally thinking Dorkstar is a fool that I forgot for a moment….hey, he is a Dayne…of the mysterious Daynes. And I never forget the "dangerous man" bit. For a smart, calculating, careful, and patient man to say that about him…definitely something to keep on file in the mind. Ned put the crackdown on talk at Winterfell. What Wylla, Allyria, and others say is curious. Somewhere Ned is slapping his forehead: "Can we keep the talk to a minimum? Really, people…" He would not want that, I am sure for the safety of Jone he made that VERY clear to Wylla. So why is she talking? Harder to live with of you bring it up, easier to slip that way too. I am very curious about her and what she's been up to these years. She is carrying with her the biggest secret in Westeros. Dorkstar. Loose cannon. Some type of agenda. Not sure what he is going to do. And also, what does he feel about Edric Dayne? Ready to step right over him? Thinks he is a little kid and could care less that he is THE Starfall Dayne. And….where the hell is Edric Dayne? How do you walk away from Uncat and her boys and take people with you. And you know their whereabouts and how they operate. Is it really that easy? Was it? Is is just me or….I mean, they are not going to kill Edric because his name isn't Frey, Lannister, and for many reasons, yet they don't exactly follow rules and are on the fringes of society, but…I think I'm curious to know how that one went down. Or it is supporting material, just the author telling us that there are cracks in the Brotherhood, like Thoros complaining to Brienne. That Edric was totally up for fulfilling service to Beric, but once's he's gone, he's out and they can't stop him. And he did get Arya to start thinking there are other perspectives out there. Starts to prepare her for some surprises upon her return home. No, I did not check out those theories. But I'd be interested. I've been busy and haven't been hopping around trying to get some posts going here. Sounds interesting. Let me know the title of the thread and I'll check it out. Would make a hell of a lot of sense. That sword is damn old, and it seems Daynes are already set up with stand out differences from other houses and their history. In general, I have more coming with Ashara and the Daynes. Something regarding all the Riverlands overlap I have to look over and finish, stuff that occurred to me with Barbrey, and more Riverlands-centric stuff too. But tonight….it's all about the show. Whoahhh……Wolf Pack!
Oh, I did have a moment where I thought he'll be walking around this episode and he's stopping somewhere to get his horse back. Nah, he just kept walking. Sonofa…. Very concerned for Big Nyms and Hot Pie now. New shoes, no horse. So pissed. But I thought the same thing you did too. We'll just call him Granger or Grazer or something…all the same Craven to me. This is like Arya without Needle. Huge loss. And I thought about what is the first thing he says to Sansa when they meet up after all the wisecracks tonight. It will be so earnest and lame, just too funny. Case in point: Calling the bowman a bloody girl, and then getting all serious about girls better than him trying to kill him. Nice smooth transition and it worked/flowed. Not easy to do. Great job the last two episodes especially. Hard when any actor has to return after a long period of time and in a new facet, yet still retain the old essence too.
I didn't even get started on the Hound yet…lol. These flick of a lightswitch raging rampages... I'm head scratching here. One second he is doing standup comedy, then it completely gets undone. Something about the pacing….and I admit it is hard to not make book comparisons. Almost impossible. He can still be a hell of a warrior and funny with more subtlety. Seems like there was no reason for the "time out" now show wise. What did he get out of it? Ok, at times he's calmer but... There is something about the actor. I'm giving him credit for taking the campy almost caricature dialogue and raging scenes lately and saving them. The deadpan-playing it down-and low key expressions are reining it in. But I did laugh myself silly, because his funny lines are all in the delivery, and he does it well. And there is that soft spot for chicken while on his buddy road trip with Arya. And the puttering around on foot, no wonder he's browsing for shoes. He needs Stranger Clegane back. People who only watch the show won't miss it. We know how heavily characterized and symbolic he is in the book. Big loss to me. Thought I have to say, his wise-cracking and the more subdued at times demeanor, is going to compliment the Sansa she is today on the show. The dialogue scenes are going to be a riot.
Booknerd2 replied to House Do'urdan's topic in E08: No OneAnd Stranger just joined them apparently.
Don't forget the Busbey Berkeley choreography rolls where I think she she hit every fruit basket on the way down. Gad to see I was not reaching when the Terminator resemblance hit me too tonight. It made the atmosphere/time period become off. The wounds opening again and how dirty water infiltrating the deep slash/stab wounds, that were bad enough on their own, that somehow Matrixed their way to bypass even nicking vital organs, get healed after bed rest, milk of the poppy, and soup. Maybe the Hound is onto something with the magic of chicken, if that's the kind of soup? I can only suspend belief so far... But to be honest, Arya's exit with Needle was awesome. That was a gift, a bone thrown. I doubt it is that cool and cut and dry in the books. I just enjoyed it as a fist pump second.

Rangers win debuts SWC Scores California 19. Texas ABM 17 SMU 24, Louiavilla 6Committee targets Schroeder, judge for defeatBy DEBBIE DaLOACH Staff writer With William Dale Savage out of the way, the Committee of Justice for All has shifted its sights to District Attorney Bill Schroeder and 207th District Court Judge Robert Pfeuffer. In a press conference Friday, Committee leader Ezequiel "Cheque" Torres said that his group "remains unsatisfied with the way Schroeder and Pfeuffer handled the Savage case," and has resolved to "work against them." Savage pleaded guilty to killing Ortencia Sauceda and her two children, and received concurrent 10-year probated sentences Thursday in court. All three were killed as they walked along Highway 81 West last October. The Fort Sam Houston private, now scheduled to go before a military board of review Sept. 16, was fined $5,000 and placed on IO years probation on April 14 for the involuntary manslaughter of Ruben Sauceda. However, Schroeder refused to prosecute Savage for the other deaths. Schroeder, who is up for election next year, called Thursday's hearing a "mockery." Torres said Friday the "real mockery was the first trial." Several Committee members testified Thursday all they ever wanted was "a day in court." Schroeder called that "garbage. All they ever said told me was, 'We won't be satisfied with anything less than another trial. "They also said this was never a racist issue. If that's true, then why do they broadcast, 'No Mexican-American will vote for Schroeder?"' the district attorney asked. "Voters make the decision — not the Committee," Schroeder said. "It's up to the people, and I have faith in those people. If they have faith in me, they'll vote for me. If not, I shouldn't be here." The controversy over the illiterate juror has served as the springboard for pointing the finger at Pfeuffer. "He should have stopped the first trial, after everyone found out about Mr. (Estacio) Guerrero," Torres said. Guerrero, who served on the Savage jury, later told a San Antonio reporter he didn't know what he was voting on. smiled when others smiled, and raised his hands when everyone else did. In the trial guilt-or-innonence phase, the jury delivered a note that said, "We have a problem. One of the jurors cannot write. He can only read or write in Spanish." So Pfeuffer devised a number system for Guerrero's vote, which was used by the entire jury. "Now that the case is over, I can talk about it," Pfeuffer responded "Several considerations went through my mind, but the first and primary reason I didn't declare a mistrial neither side made such a motion. 'As a trial judge, I had to make a snap decision, and I think the number system was good I found supporting case law I think Mr Guerrero's just a hesitant and shy person, who was put under pressure to say something different," Pfeuffer said The judge has no intentions of issuing a challenge to the Committee. "You can't run a court and campaign at the same time," he said. "Besides, I began a four-year term on Jan. I, 1983 Any future running mate will have to wait a while." jfiu New Braunfels Ut* Braunfels, Texas Herald-Zcituno AO k I ^ 1 *70 Donne P C nefinne SUNDAY September 4,1963 50 cents Vol. 92 - No. 176 72 Pages —5 Sections (USPS 377-880) Reagan: calm action needed on Soviets Travelers line up at the Jaycees rest stop on IH 35 Jaycees again set up rest stops Si#* photo br tomCW 8rnt<j»> The New Braunfels Jaycees want people to rest up and be alert during the Labor Day holiday.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Reagan, nearing a decision on American sanctions, said Saturday the Soviet Union must account for "the murder of innocent civilians" aboard Korean Air Line flight 007. Nonetheless, he said the "inexcusable act of brutality" would not interfere with arms reduction talks with Moscow. "It is up to all of us, leaders and citizens of the world, to deal with the Soviets in a calm, controlled, but absolutely firm manner,'' the president said. A senior U.S. official said the U.S. response would probably focus on measures to restrict Soviet air traffic. The president met Saturday for a second day with his top security advisers and considered a list of retaliatory options. In his weekly radio remarks, Reagan continued the tough language he has used since last Thursday 's attack on the Boeing 747 jumbo jet, but gave no hint about what steps he would take. His spokesman, Larry Speakes, called for restitution for the families of the 269, including 61 Americans, who were aboard the aircraft. Discussions in Geneva are to continue, Reagan told reporters "I don't believe that (the airliner incident) should reduce the importance of continuing the talks that we hope will lead to a reduction in the number of nuclear weapons in the world,"he said. Ambassadors and diplomats from several nations, including Japan and South Korea, were called to the State Department for a briefing on the latest developments in the tragedy. The bipartisan congressional leadership was to meet with Reagan Sunday morning. Disputes continued over just what happened last Thursday after the Korean commercial airliner wanderedSee PLANE, Page 14AShocked Koreans take to streets SEOUL, South Korea AP) — War veterans on crutches and in whee! chairs, actors and actresses, businessmen, workers and senior citizens borne on a floodtide of emotion rallied throughout this stunned nation Saturday against the barbaric and insane" downing of a South Korean jetliner Veterans burned Soviet flags Placards and banners bobbed above a rally of elderly people ' Massacre by cold-blooded Russians" they said "Savage Russians go to Hell!"

Last year, the $65,000 goal seemed modest after more then $96,000 was collected in pledges. "Nearly every person in the county can be expecting a pledge envelope or card this month," Leland Cox, Comfund publicity chairman, said. "When you get yours, remember our theme, With yon, it works,' and give to your local charity through Comfund." A Comfund spokeswoman said the pledge envelopes, debuting last year in bank statements and Guadalupe Valley Telephone Co-op bills, will change from yellow to blue this year. ' We're bringing them back, because we had such a good response last time," she added. lf the 1963 goal is reached, the following will be allocated: Salvation Army, $9,000; Comal County Mental Health-Mental Retardation Center, $12,500; Humane Society, $600; Crisis Line, $500; Youth Fair, $3,720; American Red Cross, $4,500; Head Start, $1,000; Boy Scouts of America, $14,000; Girl Scouts of America, $14,000.

Superfluous Sextant?
I would love to have a sextant for learning CN. Any of you GPS converts have one collecting dust? Please send it my way.
Considering that a good metal sextant is worth over $500 or so, it is unlikely that you're going to get one donated to you. If you're really interested in learning CN, then get a cheap plastic one...that will at least let you learn what you're doing, if you take care of it. Then, after you've learned a bit about CN, you can decided if you want to invest in a good metal sextant.
I'd love to have a "cheap" plastic one!
Try getting a Davis Mark III plastic sextant, less than $50 with shipping.
I got my Davis M25 on eBay last summer for 'bout $65.00 (US).
