Chapter IV: Shadowed Trouble
I could hear the endless thunder as I slept that night. Its deep, drawn out voice rolled constantly across the sky. And though I was unnerved by everything, the elongated sound of the booming voices calmed me down. It was rare that my emotions got thrown out of balance, and yet, this one day had somehow made it so. I did not like the feeling it brought upon me, but it was one I had to deal with.
The sun rose across the eastern sky the following morning. The storm clouds, which seemed to be settled now, were painted stunning shades of pink and orange. My eyes slowly opened to a beam of sunlight directly aimed at my face. It was not often that I slept on the couch, an event I always regretted the morning after. My body ached. It was something Guardians normally did not have to deal with. I assumed the aching I felt was a result of the mental torment I had previously suffered. My head also seemed to reflect the day prior—it was pounding relentlessly. I lay there trying not to think too much about the day before, but it was something I could not avoid.
The world I once knew now seemed to be a blur. I wanted to be wrong. A majority of myself wanted all of what had happened in the previous twenty-four hours to be a dream—a terrible, terrible dream. But it was hard to ignore the fact that I knew it was not. My mind began to wonder and finally stumbled across the one thing I had not seemed to focus on fully as of yet: my charge. I felt ashamed that I had only been worrying about myself. What kind of Guardian had I become? Had the world of Man taken such a toll on me that I allowed the irrational behavior of selfishness to affect me? I felt a surge of guilt shatter against my body.
The time had come for me to stop thinking of my troubles, just for a bit, and start thinking about my charge. I needed to find her. I needed to protect her. Above all, I needed to save her from an unfortunate fate that I believed was the result of the Council. Once again I hoped they were not involved in such a thing. And in all truthfulness, I had no proof.
Peridis, I thought to myself, please hurry. In some way I knew he would hear me. It was always said that Shadows were always around, always listening, always watching. It was a slightly fearful thought if one were to dwell on it too long. Thinking of Peridis made me think about the Records and how he would get past the Record Keepers.
The difference between Record Keepers and Shadows was simple, and very obvious. Record Keepers were hired, loyal servants to the Council. They were the only ones privileged enough to know every piece of Daemon history that existed. Shadows were normally once high ranking members of the Teriosec society that defied the Council in some way. As a rebellion they seek to find out whatever information they can to destroy the Council's power over the Teriosec Empire.
How long I would have to wait for Peridis to show up, I did not know. My mind started to get to me. I had been left alone with my thoughts for too long. I once again questioned why I was relying so heavily on a Shadow. Did I feel so betrayed by everyone that I did not have a choice? In truth I knew not enough information to justify anything. I had no proof that anything was truly wrong; I only had my own suspicions. For once, I needed to trust my own feelings on this.
I knew the longer I lay there, the more my thoughts would consume me. I pulled myself into a sitting position. My body sat there, heavy, almost lifeless. I had not felt such bodily exhaustion since… I did not want to let my mind think of what once was. I could only hope to move forward with thoughts of my charge and my charge alone. I snapped my fingers and let my heavy hand drop back down beside me. It was strange to think that I was experiencing something that was so…so…human. The balcony doors swung open.
A breeze danced its way into the dungeon-like room. The smell of rain previously falling filled the air. The calming sensation sent a wave of healing over me. Oddly my body felt lighter, better. I never understood the calming effects of storms on me. I never questioned it though. The sensation of feeling so peaceful made me not want to question that which I found incredible.
I stood up and wondered slowly over to the balcony doorway. Once there I stood still. I let my arms hang at my side and closed my eyes. The breeze was again danced its way through. I smiled as I felt it caress my face. My hair intertwined with the breeze and danced with it. I felt myself smile a genuine smile.
I walked to the edge of the wall-less balcony and peered down into the cloud abyss. I wanted to know what it would be like to just fall through the sky. I just wanted release everything and drop to the world of Man below. I stood there and began to clear my mind. I knew that I had not much time to waste.
"Find her," a whisper came to my ear. I spun around to try and see who was there. No one stood near. The soft, feminine voice had gone as quickly as it came. I began to think all that had happened within the last day made it so that my mind could not rest. And as such, the words I thought now seemed so real to me. Exhaustion and confusion plagued my mind. They were feelings I did not enjoy getting used to.
I ran my hands over my face, rubbing my eyes in the process. I walked to the very center and stopped, staring at the ground. I pointed my index finger and began slowly spinning in a circle, my finger drawing symbols on the ground. To the north I drew the symbol of the Council. To the east I scrawled the symbol of the Navis. To the south I placed the symbol of the Fortuna. And to the west I drew the symbol of the Guardians. Each symbol was required for the ritual of finding. Finally, I drew a ritual circle enclosing the symbols and binding them together.
I stood there slowly spinning around. I gazed down at each symbol as I twirled passed it. I knew I needed to proceed with the ritual but thoughts of what Peridis might discover filled my mind. I had never felt so distracted and disoriented in my life. I could not help but wonder when I would hear from him next.
"A Guardian," I heard a disgusted voice from behind me. I turned to see a sickly-like figure standing before me. His eyes pierced into mine the same way Peridis's had. Something was much different than that of Peridis though. It took a moment for me to realize what it was: he was not afraid of me. His stance was cautious and shocked. I could tell that he was struggling hard to not let me see what he was thinking in his eyes; I could not read them.
I pulled my hands behind my back and concentrated as hard as I could to conjure a weapon. My thoughts were all over the place and lacked the concentration I needed. It felt like an eternity had passed before I felt a dagger appear in my hand. I stood my ground and maintained a calm appearance. I wanted to make sure whomever this was did not sense danger.
"Who are you?" I questioned as I tightly gripped the weapon. I was ready to throw it at any instant. I considered the option of summoning the other Guardians in case something were truly about to happen. I needed to step with caution as I played out my next few decisions.
"I am O'inzahn," the man spoke in just as chilling a voice as Peridis had. His tone was laced with no respect—disgust was clearly there. His appearance, like Peridis, was terrifying. Though unlike Peridis, O'inzahn appeared much cleaner and more put together. His hair was a as dark as the night; he had it pulled back so that you could truly see the terror in his face. His eyes were a dark red, almost evil in their appearance.
"And why are you here O'inzahn?" My tone was harsh. "It is quite obvious as to what you are. And apparently you know what I am." His glare did not stir from my eyes. "Why are you in my presence?" I could feel a look of disgust light my face as I played the part of a Guardian towards a Shadow. I did not know if he was trust worthy, and as such, I did what I would normally do in such situations.
He showed no fear as a Shadow should towards a Guardian. "I was told by another to come to his call. I did not realize it would be to the repulse of a Guardian." His tone became harsher than mine.
"I would watch my tone and words if I were you!" I was trying to gain his fearful respect. I had yet to make such a point though.
"Should I fear you?" he raised his eyebrow while asking. "Lucky for me, I am not you. You're just another spoiled Guardian waiting for any chance you can to rid this realm of us 'lowly' Shadows. If you wish to kill me, go ahead. But do not insult me by hiding your weapon behind your back."
My eyes widened. How could he have possibly known? Conjuration of a Guardian was silent, stealthy. It was more than apparent that my knowledge of what Shadows were capable of was extremely limited.
"How dare you," was all I could seem to muster up in response. I clenched my jaw tight and made the dagger disappear.
"How dare I?" his tone specified further insult. "You know nothing of the Shadows but what is whispered in your ear by your precious Council. Your thoughts are given to you and you fight for a cause you know nothing about." I'd never seen a Shadow so courageous in front of a Guardian. Not to mention that I had never heard of one speaking their mind so fluidly.
His opinions were just. Had I been any other Guardian he would have been dead for his tongue by now. Perhaps that made me weak.
"Well then, perhaps you should check with Peridis again about this Guardian before you continue with your overly formulated opinions." I stared more intently into his eyes. I could tell his irritation with me was rising.
"What are you talking about?" He moved several steps closer to me. A small trail of Shadow mist lingered behind him for a moment before disappearing. "How do you know Peridis?"
My eyes looked at him confusingly. Was it not Peridis who sent him? I thought to myself. "Was it no he who sent you?"
"If it was, why would I ask how you know of him?" His gaze was just as confused as mine.
Fear struck me hard. If it was not Peridis who had sent him, who was it? I knew nothing good could come of this. I tried to not let my thoughts stray. Staying focused on O'inzahn was my current priority. If I did not—well I did care to think of the alternative.
"Before you decide to question my spoiled thoughts, you should speak with whoever sent you since they so clearly know me. And as for he who sent you, tell him this: do not send someone in his stead. Now leave my presence." O'inzahn bowed his head and allowed the Shadow mist to take him from my sight.
I collapsed to the floor as soon as I knew he was fully out of my presence. My body trembled in shock. Someone other than Peridis had sent O'inzahn to me. This meant that others knew of my request of him. I began to feel fear course through me. If others knew of what I had asked, whether it be others Shadows or not, it meant the chances of the Council knowing were far greater than I had suspected.
My thoughts fell on the conversation the evening before. My memory flew through moments in which the other Guardians had told of their assignment: to watch me. Such a request of the Council would never be made so lightly. Something about this charge had sent everyone out of their normal balance. What was I so clearly missing that everyone saw? The only clue I had was the Fortuna. And even with that, the clue was small and almost non-existent.
A small breeze came and danced over me. I sat there and tried to calm myself down. There was nothing I could know for certain until Peridis returned. And though I knew I needed to search for my charge, I also knew that waiting to hear what Peridis found out was a far better option.
"Have you lost your mind?" Peridis asked in an irritated salutation. "Are you trying to shock every Shadow in the Daemon realm?" He stared down at me with his hands up in the arm out of frustration. I had been so focused on wanting him to return, I did not even realize he had returned.
I stood up and glared back into his eyes. "Is every Shadow in the Damon realm trying to get me killed?" My reply was quick and terrifying. I placed my hands on my hips and waited for his response.
"No my lady," he bowed to me the same way I bowed to the Council. It was the same robotic bow that was always seen, but always ignored. "I sent O'inzahn to deliver a message. I did not, however, tell him that my lady was a Guardian. I suppose it goes without saying that he was a little shocked." His last statement had the underlying tone of sarcasm.
"Shocked? Is that what you would call it? I was more leaning towards rude beyond all reason."
"Yes well, O'inzahn has quite the opinion where the Immortals are concerned. You do not even want to get him started on his outlook on the Guardians."
It was odd how O'inzahn had labeled us: the Immortals. It was a term that had been used over the years to refer to the Council, Guardians, Fortuna, and various others. It struck me odd when he said it though. Almost as if he himself was judging us. It was a title that made us seem arrogant, conceited--elitist in a sense. It was a title that I ultimately fell under but did not like.
"Yes, I picked up on that little fact." I felt my body surge with anger. It was unexpected and I could not seem to stop it. Was I really allowing O'inzahn to hit my nerves in such a way? "Look, I summoned you for a reason I ne—," I felt myself stop as if I could not finish my sentence.
A strong wind came rushing from the north, almost knocking me onto the ground. A feeling poured over me as it came. My heart stopped for a few moments. My stomach felt twisted and out of sorts. My eyes opened wide—I could sense my charge. I could feel her as if I were standing in front of her. But something was off. Something was different. Something felt wrong about finding my charge this way. I glanced down at the ceremonial circle. I had not even started my search and yet I had found her. Something was wrong.
"Let me guess," he began as he strolled over and sat in a chair close to the doors, "you found your charge?" His tone almost seemed smug.
I tilted my head a little incuriosity and walked over to Peridis, folding my arms in the process. "How could you possibly know that?"
"Every Shadow has their ways of discovering information," he responded curtly. I could sense him withholding the truth.
"You'll have to forgive me Peridis, but I refuse to believe that. Especially considering I only just sensed her. How is it that you knew?" Respect and patience filled my question. I did not want him to withdraw and not tell me.
"Settle down there Guardian," he instructed mockingly. "I asked for a favor from some—well let's just call them higher Immortals, shall we?"
His answer did not please me in the slightest. The only higher Immortals that existed were the Council and at one time the Fortuna. I quickly eliminated the Fortuna from his favor. Though both Shadows and the Fortuna were hated by the empire, it was a safe assumption the two would never associate with each other. There was also the small fact that it had always been said the Fortuna lost their high Immortal status when severing ties from the Council.
"Higher Immortals?" I sighed. "Peridis, in the last twenty-four hours I have been told my new charge is female, The Fortuna still bless the Navis, the Council apparently wants me watched, Fading is being tracked, and some Shadows do not fear Guardians! I am not exactly in the mood to guess or get more confusing information. So you'll tell me who it is you asked a favor of or so help me I promise you will regret becoming a Shadow." I was out of breath. I tried to say as much as possible without gasping for air. Perhaps threatening Peridis was not the best of ideas, but I did not care. I was mentally exhausted with all the puzzle pieces not fitting together.
"Lady Vahliana," he leaned towards me, "the more information you know, the more trouble you will be in. Please trust my word on this. Sometimes it is alright to know less than one wishes to." His point was well made and without a doubt disregarded.
"And I understand that Peridis, but I do not care how much trouble I get into right now. That point alone should not need to be stated considering my association with you over the last day." My tone was rude as I spoke this. It was quite rare that I was so abundantly rude. This was one of those times, and being this rude was the only way to get my point across.
"I cannot tell you, my lady," he spoke somberly. The look in his seemed as if he wanted to tell me more than anything.
"What do you mean you cannot tell me? Who did you ask a favor of Peridis!?" My voice grew in irritation.
"All I can tell you is this: those that I work for are not quite ready for you to know who they are. When the time comes, you will know."
"Work for? Shadows work for themselves." Peridis belted out a laugh at this statement. "What?"
"Contrary to popular you belief," he began correcting me, "Shadow do not operate on their own. We have always answered to one source since the beginning of our governmental existence."
This knowledge took me by surprise. Every story ever told about the Shadows told of them working alone. So much so that Shadows did not even work together. Were they all lies meant to throw the Council off from knowing who they truly worked for?
"That is just not possible! Even the Council says you work alone." I was trying my best to make him hint anything that would give me an answer.
"Well," Peridis chuckled a bit, "that is what we have allowed them to think. My bosses have been very careful over the years. It is far easier for us Shadows to take the plunge for our work then let them fall. The reason there is any sense order is because of them. And when the time comes, you will find all of this out."
Once again another puzzle piece had been added. And once again I was left standing at a dead end. I kept wondering how many more times this was going to happen to me. The annoyance of it all was beginning to wear on me.
"Why do I bother with questioning any of this?" I looked at Peridis in dismay. "All it does is lead to one dead end after the other." We both were silent for a time. "I would like to ask you one last thing for now that I think you are able to answer. Are your bosses the ones that did me this favor?"
"Yes, they did." He smiled gently as he said this. For a moment I could see past the terror of the Shadow façade. "The time will come soon when you will meet them. But you are not quite ready to see their faces. There will come a time when you will be much more willing to listen to them. When that day comes, they will tell you what you need to know." With that he disappeared into his black mist and left my presence.
I stood there not knowing what to think. I attempted to list off all that could possibly be involved with the Shadows; I came up empty. I felt more confused than I ever had in the last day. I realized it was pointless to try and think too long on the matter. In the end, I needed to come to the realization that I was learning more about my kind. It was all coming to the surface now. All of the lies, all of the secrets, so many tangled webs of hidden truths laid before me.

Would Obama have prosecuted him?
An octogenarian took positive steps to protect himself and his wife from a violent home invader. He did what was necessary to protect his life and the life of his loved ones by shooting an armed thug who broke into his home. The Army veteran had been robbed previously, and the piece of shit that broke into his home had a history of drug and weapons convictions. Oh… and he shot first.
Unfortunately, this incident happened in Chicago, where the only people who can use a gun are police, security shitbags who protect Dick Daley at taxpayer expense, even as he works to disarm the very people who pay to protect his worthless hide, and criminal thugs.
Would Obama have prosecuted this hero for taking a piece of festering shit off the streets for good – something that police haven't been able to do?
Yeah. Probably.
"As an Illinois State Senator, Barack Obama voted not once, but twice in opposition to Senate Bill 2165," recalled Alan Gottlieb, chairman of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
The so-called "Hale DeMar Act" – named for a Wilmette, IL resident who shot a burglar with a handgun, a violation of Wilmette's handgun ban- was passed in March 2004 on a 38-20 vote. Obama was one of the senators voting against the measure. After disgraced former Gov. Rod Blagojevich vetoed the bill, the Senate voted to override the veto on Nov. 9 by a vote of 40-18. Again, Obama was one of the opponents.
It always appalls me to see politicians who take their own safety for granted because the very people who put them in office fund their ARMED security work to unilaterally make those same people vulnerable to armed thugs! They live at taxpayer expense, sucking on the public trough for decades, they have armed security, live in gated communities and never worry about the security of their loved ones. Their safety is funded by the very same people whom they try to disarm!
And if one of those people dares defend their lives and their loved ones despite the politicians' best efforts, they're prosecuted! They waste countless resources and nerves defending themselves against assaults on their very lives! First, by the armed street thugs, and then by the self-righteous, power-hungry politician thugs?
This is justice?
By what standard?
Britain to Greece
Please, just go away.
THE Greek government has been advised by British economists to leave the euro and default on its €300 billion (£255 billion) debt to save its economy.
The Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR), a London-based consultancy, has warned Greek ministers they will be unable to escape their debt trap without devaluing their own currency to boost exports.The only way this can happen is if Greece returns to its own currency.
Greek politicians have played down the prospect of abandoning the euro, which could lead to the break-up of the single currency.
Speaking from Athens yesterday, Doug McWilliams, chief executive of the CEBR, said: "Leaving the euro would mean the new currency will fall by a minimum of 15%. But as the national debt is valued in euros, this would raise the debt from its current level of 120% of GDP to 140% overnight.
Their debt level would skyrocket, lenders would stop lending to them, they'd have no money, and MAYBE then they'd be forced into some degree of fiscal responsibility! Maybe.
Lending more money to Greece to help them pay off their debts is like giving Jack Daniels to an alcoholic, hoping that this last drink will help stave off the shakes. Greece is an addict. Stop giving them money, and force them into some degree of fiscal responsibility!
Devaluing their currency and leaving the Euro means default. It means German and French banks are hugely at risk, and there's a massive change of contagion.
But really, what other option do they have? Handing them more cash is obviously not going to do any good.
This is what we need in office
"I came here to govern, not to worry about re-election."
Please! Someone clone NJ Governor Christie and send him to the White House!
Dear MSNBC
Could you please, for once, practice some journalistic standards of integrity and objectivity, instead of feeding your drooling viewers the usual, tainted pabulum that appears extracted from your collective asses after a particularly rancid meal of rotten eggs and month-old oysters?
Yes, I mean YOU, Dylan Ratigan! You appear completely incapable of not only objective, but rational thought, as demonstrated by your condemnation of Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell's decision to keep biased, politically tainted, hysterical gun
safety banning agenda out of Virginia's classrooms.
Apparently Ratigan was pissing his frilly panties over the decision to keep the National Crime Prevention Council's (NCPC) histrionics about gun safety out of our schools. This is the kind of indoctrination Ratigan would like to see Virginia's children undergo.
- To
explore the impact on society when a person dies prematurely from gun
- To develop research and critical-thinking skills
- Discuss with students the dangers of guns.
Review what they should do if they find a gun.
- Share
with them that when people die from being shot, they can no longer do
good things for their families or for society.
- Assign
students to groups of four or five, and have them select a
historical figure who was killed by gun violence. Possibilities
include Martin Luther King, Jr.; John F. Kennedy; Abraham Lincoln; and
Mahatma Gandhi. Have each group research the person they chose and list
the positive contributions he or she made to society.
- Ask
students to predict how these individuals might have continued their
work if they hadn't been killed by gun violence.
- Have
each group present a biography of the individual they researched and
their ideas of what the individual could have done if he or she had
not died from gun violence.
- Have each member of
the group write a diary entry that takes place five years after the
person died and shares what the person could have done if the person
had lived. The students may choose to write the entry from the point of
view of the individual or of a third party who had been influenced by
the individual's work (e.g., someone who heard Martin Luther King, Jr.
give a speech).
- Extend this into a service project by
having students design a memorial for people killed by gun violence.
They may choose to plant a tree or design a peace quilt to display in
the school's lobby.
Wow… there's a difference. And even police officers deem the NRA's gun safety program very effective.
That, of course, doesn't matter to Ratigan, whose primary mission is not the education of children about gun safety, but rather the indoctrination and brainwashing of our children into hysterical hatred of a tool, a leftard political agenda and an avoidance of personal responsibility.
Really, (P)MSNBC! Could you please put on your big girl panties and stop with the quivering vagina ache because some big, bad Republican has derailed your political goals!
It's getting old. I'm not even sure anyone actually considers you a real news source any longer!
h/t: Jeff Soyer
Nicholas Kristof is going to a reeducation camp pronto! Writing in the New York Times? This?
There's an ugly secret of global poverty, one rarely acknowledged by aid groups or U.N. reports. It's a blunt truth that is politically incorrect, heartbreaking, frustrating and ubiquitous:
It's that if the poorest families spent as much money educating their children as they do on wine, cigarettes and prostitutes, their children's prospects would be transformed. Much suffering is caused not only by low incomes, but also by shortsighted private spending decisions by heads of households.
Doesn't he know that all people living in poverty are righteous, abused, long-suffering at the hands of their more successful oppressors, magnanimous, kind, and virtuous?
Doesn't he know that it's not their fault that they can't afford to educate their children? Doesn't he know that they're not responsible for the decisions they make, but rather are the product of generations of abuse and are entitled to yet more resources from "the rich" countries?
After all, their rent is $6 per month, and they must pay $2.50 monthly for their kids to go to school! That's a LOT! It's HAAAAARD! Especially, since they live in poverty and have thus far popped out 8 kids!
Lady, it's a vagina, not a clown car!
"It's hard to get the money to send the kids to school," Mr. Obamza explained, a bit embarrassed.
But Mr. Obamza and his wife, Valerie, do have cellphones and say they spend a combined $10 a month on call time.
In addition, Mr. Obamza goes drinking several times a week at a village bar, spending about $1 an evening on moonshine. By his calculation, that adds up to about $12 a month — almost as much as the family rent and school fees combined.
And the Obamzas aren't the only ones choosing booze over their children's education.
"If possible, I drink every day," Fulbert Mfouna, a 43-year-old whose children have also had to drop out or repeat grades for lack of school fees, said forthrightly. His eldest son, Jude, is still in first grade after repeating for five years because of nonpayment of fees. Meanwhile,Mr. Mfouna acknowledged spending $2 a day on alcohol and cigarettes.
There's your inconvenient truth, folks. I applaud Kristof for bringing it to light and addressing an uncomfortable topic that will no doubt give the righteous redistributionists an Obama-sized wedgie!
These people are largely responsible for keeping themselves ignorant and miserable. By making booze, and not their children a priority… by breeding like rabid rats… they keep themselves in the dark ages, as the self righteous who claim we don't do enough to help the third world, wallow in their unctuousness and demand we assuage their consciences by shelling out more bucks for them to redistribute.
Now, off to the reeducation camps with you, Sir Nicholas!

Helping All Students to Independence Helping All Students to Independence
Here's a sample of our volunteer opportunities:VIEW AS
Mission Statement
MISSION STATEMENT To bring students together with different backgrounds and beliefs to serve each other and their community. To form co-ops, and support systems, to make opportunities for networking, to develop a financial resource that will help students with transportation, and other obstacles that may impede their education. To assist students academically through tutoring, mentoring, and study groups. Thereby helping students meet and surpass their academic challenges. H.A.S.I. goal as a non-profit is to develop resources for students that are in need. Not by giving them handouts, but by empowering them to earn what they need. Therefore we will embrace change, start a new, and grow & improve beyond all "Boundaries". We will call on God for strength, wisdom, & understanding, and we will make a difference.
H.A.S.I. is a non-profit 501{c} 3 multi-purpose organization that is run by students and former students from different backgrounds, educational disciplines, and ages. These students come together to assist other students and non-students academically or financially (when funds are available). We promote independence, by helping students create opportunities for self advancement by assisting them develop the tools to promote and start their own projects that will hopefully generate income for themselves.Our H.A.S.I. members and volunteers work to raise funds for students who need a "HAND-UP" and not a "hand-out". Whether helping a student with transportation issues, such as bus-tickets or gas-money, or other needs such as tutoring, food, and clothing donation drives, helping pay with a bill, like utility or sometimes when funds are available rent, and even assisting with finding a place to stay,-our members work hard because they are compelled to and see the need.

Representative Erik Paulsen (MN-03), a member of the House Ways & Means Committee, issued the following statement after this morning's jobs report.
"Today's report is another reminder of just how anemic our so-called "recovery' has been," said Rep. Paulsen. "Our economy is simply growing at too slow a rate to replace the millions of jobs that have been lost. Our job creators need certainty and clarity, but for too long Washington has given them neither.
"Washington needs to stop perpetuating policies which stall job creation, such as burdensome and costly regulations, and continuing out-of-control spending -- all while the American people face 30 consecutive months of over 8% unemployment."
Paulsen, a champion of small business and advocate of free enterprise, entrepreneurship, and innovation currently serveson the House Ways and Means Committee, and is co-chair of the Congressional Korea-U.S. Free Trade Working Group and co-chair of the House Medical Technology Caucus.

What headsails are you flying?
In the upper Chesapeake (i.e. Severn River to Baltimore to Rock Hall), what headsails are you using and when? I have a 100 and a 135. I'm compelled to put the 135 on from the start in April-May and just use that for the entire season. Pearson 35 CB/Skeg and a 4'9 to 7'9" draft, 14k lbs.
We have a similar size, weight boat aslo with a k/c of 4'6-8' draft. We fly a 135 in the colder heavier months of March, April, Oct, Nov and Dec. In the warm/ hot months we fly a 155
You roller furling guys are spoiled. Just pick the one that fits for the conditions of that day. Honestly, how long does it take to change a headsail?
Ha! We are spoiled!!!! With small children, it takes me what seems to be an eternity.
I keep a 135 on the furler in summer and a 100 the rest of the year and offshore. I also have a small staysail and a big asym.

My friend hired Mr. Kates about 10 months ago..... I truly don't know how experience Mr. Kates is in the area of child custody.
My friend is going through challenging times with his kids and seems that either Mr. Kates does not know the law or is taking him for a ride. I have researched my friends case and he doesn't seem to have a chance... What I don't understand is why Mr. Kates is taking his money, knowing how clearly the law reads.
I wish my friend would have come to me first or have seeked different opinions before choosing Mr. Kates.
My advice is do some research first, seek different opinions before choosing a lawyer, don't be fooled.

This lock pin worked perfect for my RAM 2500 truck. I had an old lock pin that had clearance issues because of the hitch design. Once I worked the key a couple of times, the motion was much smoother. As it shows in the picture, it does have a dust cover over the key portion in order to keep it free from debris.

5 Easy Summer Craft Projects for Kids
Are you looking for ways to keep your kids busy during their summer holidays? Keep them creatively entertained for hours with these easy, yet engaging craft activities:
1. Painting Rocks: Your kids will love staying outdoors in your garden or backyard busy painting rocks of garden stones. Supply them with acrylic paints and brushes and let them use their own creative ideas. They could either paint little objects and scenes on larger rocks or paint smaller stones in single or multi colors.
2. Photo Frames: Photo frames can be made and/or decorated in many different ways. Ask kids to choose their favorite summer photos to be framed and supply them with plain plastic or wooden frames. Now ask them to embellish each frame with a theme that matches the photograph. A picture taken on the beach can be displayed in a frame embellished with sand and seashells. A birthday photo can have a frame embellished with birthday clipart, cutouts or stickers.
3. Wrapping Paper: Let your kids make different types of wrapping for use throughout the year to wrap presents for their friends' and teachers' birthdays. Give them paint and different household supplies that create various patterns on paper. For e.g. sponge, cut vegetables, carved buttons, jar lids etc. They can also make and store some for Christmas.
4. Bead Crafts: Assorted beads in different colors, shapes and sizes make for interesting craft supplies. Kids can create themed jewelry, bead art, pins and little decorations by stringing beads on to wire and then bending wire to create shapes.
5. Playdough: Homemade playdough is one of the oldest and still the most effective of keeping kids busy. Give the kids a 'summer project' to complete before the day ends in which they can make a summer scene or a number of summer themed objects.
Giving these crafts a 'summer' theme will not only give the projects an interesting twist, but it will also make your kids enjoy the season and wait for it to arrive soon next year!

Prospective Guests:
We want to "thank you" for accessing our VRBO listing and for considering booking the Cottage at Reausaw Lake (i.e. the Cottage). During your search for Black Hills accommodations, please do not hesitate to contact us for additional information.
We are the owners and, also, the property managers of the Cottage. In this capacity, we are able to give our guests individual attention. Our priority is to offer a vacation rental that is comfortable, cozy, clean and complete, at a competitive rate. Additionally, we continually strive to make Cottage improvements, such as a recent patio expansion and a partial kitchen remodel, to better accommodate our guests.
The value a business offers can quite often be measured by repeat customers. During 2015, we booked eight (8), repeat customers for a total of fifty-nine (59) nights! This was almost 50% of the 125 total nights we booked in 2015. We didn't do as well in 2016, but we did have four (4) repeat guests for a total of twenty (20) nights. This was about 20% of the 102 total nights we booked in 2016. It makes us proud, and we are humbled, to know that our past guests have had such a positive, Cottage experience.
We, again, "thank you" for considering the Cottage and we look forward to serving you.
PS. And, for you repeat customers, we "thank you" for your business AND your friendship!
Doug & Denise Miller
Private, quiet and chocked full of diversity!! Enjoy outdoor activities in a poisonous-snake-and-wood-tick-free environment! Enjoy all types of bird and wildlife viewing, including turkey, deer and elk. This rental offers a magnificent location for the outdoor enthusiast, yet, is centrally located for easy access to all Black Hills attractions. Rapid City is 30 miles, Deadwood is 15 miles and Sturgis is 25 miles. Essentially all Black Hills attractions are located within a one-hour drive. Located on 80-privately-owned acres, the Cottage offers convenient access to the Black Hills National Forest…..a one-million-acre, public playground for your outdoor enjoyment! (Did we mention that the Cottage's location offers no rattlesnakes and no ticks?!! Yes, way!)
Explore the diversity of the Black Hills from your backyard!! Summertime activities include all types of recreational activities…..mountain biking via the 111-mile Centennial Trail (eight miles from the Cottage), "easy" bicycling / hiking for all ages and abilities via the 109-mile Mickelson Trail (eleven miles from the Cottage), four-wheeling via the extensive Black Hills road system and, of course, hiking, camping and fishing. Would you like to fish? We will supply the fishing equipment! The Black Hills has an extensive lake and stream system, however, Reausaw Lake is only 100 yards away. This small lake is owned by the South Dakota Game & Fish Department and stocked with trout for excellent catching success….especially enjoyable for the young angler! Or, our adult, fly-fishing guests can supply their own fly-fishing gear and have access to a private pond with hungry trout (catch and release, please)!
Wintertime activities are endless! Downhill skiing and snowboarding are thirty minutes away at the Terry Peak and Mystic Miner at Deer Mountain ski areas. Most of the Black Hills is open to off-road snowmobiling, or access to 350-miles of groomed trails is a ten-minute drive away. How about a family sledding outing? Sleds and a toboggan are available for onsite use. Further, let's not forget that the Black Hills is excellent for snowshoeing and cross country skiing activities.
AND, most importantly, the owners of the Cottage, Doug & Denise Miller, will do everything they can to make your stay completely enjoyable! The Miller residence is located ¼ mile from the Cottage. Just look out the Cottage's back door. This close proximity allows the Millers to personally meet their guests and to be readily accessible should guests need individual and immediate attention. The Millers believe in customer service and will do all they can to make your stay an enjoyable one.
The Millers are looking forward to meeting you!
PS. Please feel free to contact us via phone or email. However, when contacting us via phone, first, please call our home phone (605-578-1102) and, if no answer, leave a message. Then, call our cell phone (605-920-0287). Also, if no answer, leave a message. This will assure we get back to you in a timely manner. THANK YOU for your extra effort here!
NOTE: For larger groups, please be aware that the Cottage only has one (1) shower / tub.
FYI: The Cottage at Reausaw Lake is licensed as a Vacation Home with the State of South Dakota. License number 60350. The Health Department of the State of South Dakota is required to inspect the Cottage on an annual basis. For 2014, 2015 and 2016, the Cottage received 100% scores of compliance from the South Dakota Department of Health.
We always return to the cottage when we travel to the Hills. The Miller's welcome us like friends and treat us like special guests. Our family can't wait to return.
What a great place, We had 5 guys ATV'ing, plenty of room, great location, plenty of room for storage of our gear. Doug and Denise are such great host's. The cottage was so clean, loved watching the turkey's and deer, also seen a huge bull elk from the cottage, would reccomend to anyone to stay ther.
The Cottage provides such great peace and quiet and yet it is not too far from most of the sites we wanted to see. There is a great little trout pond just a short walk away. We only wished we had planned to stay longer. We also feel like Doug and Denise have become fast friends and it was nice to have them in the area to answer questions. This was our second year to visit and when we return, we intend to stay at the Cottage. It is a beautiful location.
The cottage is located in a beautiful location in the Black Hills. It is close to most major attractions, yet secluded enough for when you want to have a relaxing and quiet day or evening at "home". The cottage is well stocked and is by far the cleanest vacation rental we have ever had. We fished in the pond and hiked the private property. On our first day there, my husband saw a herd of elk grazing in the field behind the pond. The scenery is beautiful! Doug and Denise are wonderful hosts and go above and beyond to accommodate their guests. This was our first trip to the Black Hills, and we have already decided that we will not stay anywhere else the next time we travel to the area. Thank you Doug and Denise for your hospitality and for sharing your lovely cottage.
The cottage was awesome. If you want seclusion, peace, tranquility, cleanliness, and feel right at home, the Cottage is the your home away from home. My husband had three requirements in the Black Hills area, Privacy, A/C, and Firepit. With tourism being the primary industry in South Dakota, I knew I was in for a challenge when he said, I want to hear silence. Since we were going in August, A/C needed to be considered but little did we know that the elevation would take care of that for us. And thank goodness for the firepit because, it warmed us up during the cool nights. We were busy bees during our week long stay with 12-14 hour long days: hiking, sightseeing, visiting the state and national parks, exploring nearby Deadwood and Rapid City. And in the back of my mind I was relieved to know that after a long day we would be going to the cottage for the night. The place is homey, beds are comfortable, we loved the fact that they had everything you can think of. Books/magazines to read, outdoor equipment, all of your amenities, oh and cookies on the fridges. We absolutely enjoyed it.
My family spent a long weekend in this cottage. The owners called to let me know they were going to be out of town during the time we were going to be there and gave me information they thought would be helpful gave me their cell phone number so we could call if we had any questions. They then called the first day we were there to make sure everything was fine and to make sure we did not have any questions. Doug was very friendly and attentive. The cottage is well stocked with anything you could think of. We enjoyed using it as a base for all of our adventures and enjoyed returning in the evening to grill, play horseshoes and have a fire in the fire pit and my husband enjoyed fly-fishing in the pond on the property. The cottage was exactly what we were looking for - comfortable, clean, convenient and reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend it to others.

Marijuana is such a term which is controversial and praiseworthy at the same time. For a long time this very thing was indeed infamous for a product of addiction. It was indeed the eyeball to the addict across the world. But now a day the situation has been changed altogether. Now there is a new aspect of marijuana or cannabis has come to the fore. And most surprising to you this new aspect is about medicinal use of marijuana. Yes, you have not mistaken to hear it. Medical marijuana program RI is a complete reality now.
It is a fact that most of the people are still unaware of it. But it is indeed the crying needs of the hour. Actually marijuana is such a thing which can make your nerves soothing and relaxing for a considerable span of time. The people who are fond of using it exploit it for the sake of such relaxation. And the doctors and expert of the present day are also using it for the same purpose. The names of Medical Marijuana act text are apt in this context.According to the Observer, of late the drug treatment centers have reported a sharp rise in the number of cannabis addiction. Lion's share of the clinic says that even a decade ago, the number of patient was just one fourth!
Michael Rowlands, medical director at the Priory Farm Place, says cannabis shows all the classic signs of dependency.
"There's a strong desire to use, which overrides other activities, so friends and hobbies and work are neglected," he says. "There's difficulty in controlling the amounts you use. There's a degree of tolerance developed so you need higher doses to have the same effect. And then you persist in using despite the fact it's causing you ill health or debt."
Naturally you can understand quite easily how much important is the activities of Marijuana doctor RI in the present context. But the mission is not as easy as it is thought to be. There are still a hell lot of misconceptions on the part of the common mass of people. That is nothing new to be very frank. Whenever you will try to draw any new picture, the adverse critic will always pounce on you with the stones in their hands. The radicals have to go forward breaking the several social shackles. Yes, RI medical marijuana license is a vanguard in this region.

As John says, he's been ear-deep in Avalon for over two years. He knows what works and what doesn't and why. If Avalon's in your future, you'll want to be listening to what John has to say.

Sharon and Alexandra Lazidis Comment on Decoy Workshop In Western Australia By Kris Kotsopoulos
I'm writing to tell you what a fantastic experience this two day workshop has been for us - a real eye-opener. Our understanding about the nature and training requirements for protection / working dogs has taken a massive leap forward.
I'm writing to tell you what a fantastic experience this two day workshop has been for us - a real eye-opener. Our understanding about the nature and training requirements for protection / working dogs has taken a massive leap forward. As the private owner of Von Forell German Shepherd puppy, it was clear from the responses around us that other owners, breeders, and trainers on the course were similarly affected.
Perhaps the first aspect of protection dog training to impact us was the fact that a protection dog is a certain type of dog, one that is programmed genetically, then brought to engagement through specific training and care. The protective behaviours are then just a natural extension of the integrity and spirit inherent in the dog from the beginning.
The magic begins in the breeding and selection process, and then just carried through to maturity by respectful handling and shaping of the dog within it's specified environment. You can't expect just any dog to fulfill this expectation. It's a "horses for courses" scenario, and accepting a highly spirited dog is part of the package. It's the drive factor that is all important, and accepting the responsibility that handling that drive as carefully as a high-powered vehicle is a requirement.
The advantages of the Von Forell Training Systems was abundantly clear. Any concern that this was painful or harmful to the dog at all was quickly dispelled through clear explanation.
The next powerful awareness was a greater understanding of the true nature of dogs, and how the selection and breeding processes need to reinforce the relationship the general public has with the concept of dog ownership and responsibility. Rather than a "them" and "us" mentality, support for dog ownership and interaction with dogs needs to happen at a community level.
This begins with some pretty basic education about the motivation governing a dog's behaviour. Our community are expected to take on board basic road rules and respect for moving vehicles. This isn't much different, however it is chronically lacking. The difference between innate, positive drive principles and unwanted defensive aggression, and public confusion of the two, are a prime example.
Thirdly, our five month old German Shepherd had an absolute ball !! He was so motivated with enjoyment that he was charging to the car this morning in anticipation of repeating yesterday's activities with the trainers. To see dog after dog leaving the arena with heads and tails held high, their hard-won tug-toy or training-sleeve prizes gripped firmly in their jaws, was a joy to witness. The dogs engaged in the training as a positive experience, and all came away extended in some direction.
Worth every cent in both time and effort !! Thanks so much for the availability of the course, and all your valuable research and advice.
Kind regards,
Sharon and Alexandra Lazidis

1. Volunteer More. CHECK! Thanks to Junior League, I am happy to report I completed this goal. I was able to contribute more at church, too. Wanting to keep this up this year, as well. Giving back always makes me feel good, and just like my parents say, "the more you give, the more you receive".
2. Lose the Baby Weight. CHECK! It wasn't easy, but it was oh so worth it. And as you're all well aware by now, obviously that'll be another goal for the latter half of 2013 all over again. I hear the second time is much harder so this should be loads of fun (sense the sarcasm?)
3. Get Back in the Kitchen. 1/2 a CHECK...I did cook a lot more in the summer/early fall, but then when the pregnancy tiredness set in with #2, it was back to the easy stuff-pizzas, anything you can pop in the microwave, easy entrees from Trader Joes, and takeout.
4. Don't Overplan/Schedule My Time. Major FAIL. I am good at scheduling, just not good at saying "no". I need to spend my time doing things I enjoy and not worrying so much about doing it all. If I miss out on something, so be it. I am horrible at this and I know it.
5. Start My Own Business. FAIL otherwise known as pushed to the backburner until further notice. It's still there in my mind, and something I absolutely want to do, yet other things like family take precedence right now and I want to fully support Jeff and his career. He is doing incredible things in his role and I couldn't be more proud of him.
1. Don't Get Lazy with My Faith. Keep reading the Bible (it's amazing how much I've learned so far), make attending church a priority, spend time EACH day in prayer (not just at night), start a daily children's devotional with Caroline, and get involved as much as possible with church activities.
2. Maintain an Organized Life. I have started going through each and every room in our home packing away things into bags and boxes and hauling them off to Goodwill every chance I get...out with the old and in with the new. I always seem to do this right after Christmas because I feel "clutter" everywhere and I am a neat freak. With that, I want to keep organized with everything we have going on...appointments for Caroline, upcoming events with friends/family, weekly dinner menu, etc.
3. De-Stress and Invest Time in What and Who Matters Most. Let's face it...we all change, we grow, and we lean more about ourselves as the years pass. In 2012, I learned how much can change when you have a baby... I'm happy with where my life is and where it's going and I'm going to give 110% to the relationships that mean the most. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff and I need to learn to not get so stressed out about trying to maintain a perfect life...remember, there is no such thing as "perfect" ;)
4. Run a 5K and 10K Post Baby #2. I miss running... I've been working out again, mixing cardio with weight training, but at the end of the day, I miss my "hobby". There is something so relaxing about running. I am hoping to get back to that happy place and complete a few races.
5. Start Designing/Building Our Dream Home. Jeff and I have been talking about this topic for quite some time and it seems that at the pace we're at, we'll be outgrowing our home before we know it. We have made a few decisions regarding where we'll build, what our timeline looks like, and what builder we will be using, but the next plan of action is to set those ideas in stone and put pen to paper. This is going to be a long process and I have to tell myself that as to not get overwhelmed, but hopefully by the end of 2013 we will have broken ground and will be on our way to our forever home.
I've made a post-it note of these actions and goals and it's sitting on my desk to help keep me accountable day-in and day-out. Here goes nothing! Do you have a list of similar resolutions or are you taking charge in a different way?? I love to hear what you're thinking!

Danny Welbeck scored his first international goals for more than a year as Roy Hodgson's England began their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign with a morale-boosting win in Switzerland.
England manager Hodgson, who came in for criticism following last week's uninspiring win over Norway, handed Welbeck the central striker's role he craves and he responded by scoring both goals in this impressive 2-0 victory in Basle.
The 23-year-old showed why Arsenal paid £16million for his signature as he turned home a Raheem Sterling cross on a lightning counter-attack that also involved captain Wayne Rooney.
And the former Manchester United man rounded off the win in injury time with a well-taken finish.
Hodgson turned the air blue following criticism of his team at Wembley last Wednesday, but tonight he will have nothing but kind words to say about his team after they put in a much-improved display.
Switzerland v England: Player Ratings
Switzerland v England: Player Ratings
1/24 Yann Sommer: 7
Having taken over from Benaglio between the sticks following the Wolfsburg keeper's shock international retirement, the 25-year-old slowly settled into his new role as the Swiss No.1. An unconvincing save to deny Wayne Rooney saw the Monchengladbach pull off a stunning save to keep out Phil Jones' header from the resulting corner. Helpless to prevent either of Welbeck's goals.
2/24 Stephan Lichtsteiner: 5
Lined-up himself up for worldly which had Hart rooted, but the thunderbolt sawed over the bar. But the Juventus man struggled to react to Sterling's guile whenever the Liverpool man drifted wide, and the flying full-back was caught napping for Welbeck's opening goal as England hit them on the counter-attack with Sterling supplying the cross.
3/24 Steve von Bergen: 4
Lacked concentration in the early stages as his misplaced pass fell at the feet of Sterling, leading to England's first shot on target. His first half failed to get much better, finding himself utterly incapacitated by Welbeck's pace which should have led to an England opener on the half-hour mark.
4/24 Johan Djourou: 6
The former Arsenal man applied a telling block, albeit only just, to help divert Wilshere's effort wide of Sommer's goal. Sacrificed himself at the feet of Delph, and on second viewing, was perhaps somewhat fortunate not to have conceded a penalty for a what was a clumsy lunge.
5/24 Ricardo Rodriguez: 6
Timely interception to deny Rooney early on, the Wolfsburg man enjoyed some decent link-up play with Xhaka and Mehmedi down the left flank. Made a timely interception to cut-out a driven cross from Delph as England looked to extend their lead.
6/24 Gokhan Inler: 5
Having picked up a knock in training leading up to the game, the Swiss captain was one of last players Jordan Henderson would have been looking forward to lining up against. But the captain failed to dominate the match, and was caught in possession in the build-up to Welbeck's goal opener.
7/24 Granit Xhaka: 6
Linked-up well with Mehmedi and Shaqiri throughout, but will feel he should have tested Hart when the ball landed at his feet inside the box in the second half. Unable to apply to the telling touch to prevent Welbeck's goal, he was replaced by Dzemaili with 15 minutes left to play.
8/24 Valon Behrami: 7
The former West Ham man was crudely taken down by Delph in the opening 10 minutes and was somewhat fortunate not to pick up and early booking for a tug on Sterling. Battled throughout alongside a somewhat tepid Inler. More dominance from his captain would have seem them win the midfield battle.
9/24 Xherdan Shaqiri: 7
The Bayern Munich man has attracted heavy interest from Liverpool, and he burst into life late in the first half with an exquisite reverse-pass that unlocked Engand's backline, but sadly for the Swiss, Seferovic failed to apply a finish of comparable quality. Mehmedi's withdrawal on the hour mark sure the Bayern man move to his preferred No10 role, but was unable to find the telling spark for his side.
10/24 Haris Seferovic: 7
A performance or player who lacks a clinical cutting edge. His job on Jack Wilshere – dropping deep to suppress the Arsenal man – proved a key component in the Swiss setup. Had a golden chance to put the hosts ahead after good work from Shaqiri, but failed to find the net as Hart's trailing leg kept it out. He later stunned the palms of Hart in the second half with a powerful drive, before later rounding the Manchester City stopper only for his effort to be expertly blocked on the line by Gary Cahill. Deserved a goal for his efforts.
11/24 Admir Mehmedi: 7
His nutmeg on Stones in the opening moments proved a decent sign of things to come. Operating predominantly down the Swiss left flank, the Freiburg star proved their most potent threat in the first half. Surprisingly replaced just after the hour mark.
12/24 Josip Drmic: 6
Replaced Mehmedi and his freshness almost made an instant impact, but after a powerful run, the Bayer Leverkusen man took the ball too wide and his shot was snuffed out by a grateful England defence.
13/24 Blerim Dzemaili: 5
Replaced Xhaka with 15 minutes left, but struggled to make any noticeable impact.
14/24 Joe Hart: 7
Returning to his imposing best. Under-worked in first half as Lichtsteiner shot over. Strong saves from Seferovic before being rounded by Drmic.
15/24 John Stones: 6
Forced to play out of position again but not unduly troubled. Turned easily on occasion but overall was unfazed on the biggest night of his career.
16/24 Phil Jones: 6
Fell into Seferovic to halt one Swiss attack. Ceded possession before being bailed out by Hart. Close with header and cleared from under how own crossbar.
17/24 Gary Cahill: 7
More experienced centre-back and held backline together with authority. Struggled on turn at times. Trademark clearance off line from Drmic.
18/24 Leighton Baines: 6
Caught late by Shaqiri in opening minutes but was danger with delivery from left side. Enjoyed freedom to spend large periods in the Swiss half.
19/24 Jack Wilshere: 7
Too easily robbed of possession but enjoyed space to influence proceedings. Clever ball to Rooney came to nothing and had shot deflected past post.
20/24 Jordan Henderson: 6
Overcame injury worries to maintain place in centre of the park. Tidy in possession and aided forward momentum as England prospered on counter.
21/24 Fabian Delph: 7
Handed competitive debut and too hyped early. Left foot in on Behrami before diving in on Lichtsteiner. Rarely gave ball away and should have won penalty.
22/24 Raheem Sterling: 7
England's latest great hope kept the hosts occupied with his quick feet and canny movement. Played major role in move for Welbeck's opener.
23/24 Wayne Rooney: 8
Failed to control Wilshere pass in front of goal and close with header before dropping back to orchestrate move for opener. Best showing for a long time.
24/24 Danny Welbeck: 8
Arsenal new boy replaced Sturridge. Chose wrong option after steaming in off right wing but showed composure to find net twice to earn the points.
Without 15 injured seniors, Hodgson's young starting XI had just 282 caps among them whereas Switzerland's team had played 481 times in total for their country.
That, and the fact that Switzerland were ranked 11 places above England, made the hosts the pre-match favourites but Hodgson's men were the best team going forward by some distance.
The attacking triumvirate of Welbeck, Sterling and Rooney created many chances, but their finishing let them down until Welbeck poked home his first England goal since September 6, 2013.
Fabian Delph, making his full debut, also put in a strong display in the middle of the park.
The defensive vulnerabilities that cost England in Brazil were still evident - Phil Jones almost gifted the Swiss the lead in the first half.
But Hodgson will return to England with a broad smile on his face after beating his biggest rivals in Group E.
Delph showed no sign of nerves as he started confidently. The Aston Villa midfielder pinched the ball off Stephan Lichtsteiner and crossed for Sterling, but his control was poor and Switzerland were let off.
Delph's enthusiasm descended into recklessness moments later though when he cut Valon Behrami down with a late tackle that was somehow left unpunished.
The former Leeds man was no so lucky with his second bad tackle on Lichtsteiner which earned him a booking.
It did not take long for Hodgson to come to the edge of his technical area, but there was no need for him to be alarmed early on - his team were putting on a much more confident, high-tempo display than the one that lead to so much doom and gloom last week.
Jack Wilshere chipped a delightful 30-yard ball to Rooney, but the captain's control was desperately poor and the attack faded out.
An error by Steve von Bergen allowed Sterling to race at the defence but Rooney's shot dribbled straight into the arms of Yann Sommer.
Five things we learnt from England's win in Basel
With Xherdan Shaqiri in their side, Switzerland always looked capable of hitting England on the break though.
Haris Seferovic latched on to a clever pass from the Bayern Munich midfielder, but the referee waved play on when the striker went down under pressure from Jones.
Jones carelessly gave the ball away and Shaqiri took advantage, carving a lovely pass through to Seferovic again, but this time Joe Hart saved with his right leg.
England had a brilliant chance of their own just before the half-hour when Welbeck broke down the right. England were three on one, but the Arsenal striker's pass to Sterling was poor and Switzerland rushed back to snuff out the danger.
Only Sommer's acrobatics prevented England from leading at half-time.
Sommer tipped Rooney's shot behind and from the resulting corner the Switzerland goalkeeper denied Jones with a superb one-handed save.
Behrami almost handed England a way into the match just after the restart when his clearance drifted inches wide of his own goal after some good work by Henderson and Sterling.
England were soon under pressure again though and Hart did well to deny Seferovic, who had smacked a sweet volley towards the top corner.
Switzerland's pressing left them open at the back and England took full advantage just before the hour.
Rooney galloped forward from the halfway line and slipped the ball straight into Sterling's path.
The Liverpool winger, compared to Marc Overmars by Rooney on the eve of the match, cantered down the left just like the flying Dutchman and bypassed three defenders with a flat ball across the box to Welbeck, who shinned the ball into the net at the far post.
Sterling almost doubled England's lead with a mazy dribble into the box, but Lichtsteiner put in a superb last-ditch tackle.
Moments after his introduction, Josip Drmic broke through the England back line and he was allowed to advance on goal despite being offside. The striker rounded Hart, but Cahill came to England's rescue with a block on the line. It was a superb block, but one that involved his hand, much to Switzerland's annoyance
Ricardo Rodriguez's deflected shot sent a few pulses in the away end racing towards the death, but Hart saved.
Then in the fourth minute of injury time Sterling found substitute Rickie Lambert on the break. The Liverpool striker played the ball on to Welbeck and he slotted the ball past Sommer to seal the victory for England and their hordes of jubilant fans.

I actual have a Paramont Cinema hd 2112. I was iffy at first but my family loves it. It even came with a coupon inside the box for an extra bulb. We sent that in the day we got it and recieved the bulb within a week. I have not tested the 3d part but I do not think my family will ever use that anyway. We use it to watch cable tv or the netflix.

Vahelna is a small village located on the outskirts of the city of Muzzafarnagar. The village is famous for its iron factories and abundant sugarcane crop. It also has several prominent religious centres of worship, namely Jain Mandir, Shiv Mandir and mosque that share a common wall. This is also historically significant because it is one of the few places in which Hindus and Muslims live in harmony.
