"...I was in the area when they put together The Expendables, and Sly knew about that, so he contacted me and said, "Man, please read this and feel free to just tell me what you think about the character and if you wanna change things." So I took it and read it, and I definitely did some changes. I changed even the name of character. And so, I started sending things that I wrote and he accepted them, and I said, "Okay." So, that's how we connected.
What was the original name of the character?
BANDERAS: It was Matador, and I have heard that name so many times, with so many characters that I have been offered. I said, "No. Matador, no. We have to do something different." So "galgo" means greyhound. It's a very fast dog. Galgo sounds easy and good in English, so they accepted it. And another thing I said to him is, "Sly, you have to give me the possibility to make some comedy here." The whole entire project, and how the concept is created, I don't see it as a very realistic approach to action. We're not doing the type of thing that is very realistic and goes through certain narrative rules and cinematic rules. This goes in a completely different direction. And he said to me, "You do whatever you wanna do and we will decide it, as we go. If we're going in the right direction, we'll talk." So I took over the character with that idea, and I ended up improvising a lot, which is not easy for me, believe me, 'cause it's not my language. But I think that actually adds some comedy, too. So, I am the type of pain in the ass guy who never stops talking and where everyone's rolling eyes when he arrives, but at the end, he's tender and has some kind of past story that actually makes him lovable, in some way.
How does he come into the story and end up with these guys?
BANDERAS: He's a mercenary. He is a guy who has been with a uniform in the Spanish army for a long time, in places of combat like Kosovo and Afghanistan and places like that. But something happened to him, that you will see in the movie, that takes him out of that. And so, he becomes a solitary man. Knowing the existence of the expendables, he's trying to approach them, by any means, but he never got the possibility."
How did you prepare for this role? Did you have to do anything special for this kind of project?
BANDERAS: You have to be in good shape, basically. And then, you have to have a certain craziness, if you're going to do some of the action things. I did something that I shouldn't have done. I'm in my 60s now, and just running almost 50 meters with explosives going on, it was kind of like, "Oh, my god! What am I doing here?" The whole entire building was shaking, and stuff like that. But, you do it. At the same time, I just wanna do it if I have the possibility of laughing a little bit at myself. In this particular concept of a movie, if I were doing something that can be catalogued as action, but is more serious and based on real events, I probably would approach it in a completely different way. But in this particular case, I asked Sly, who is the creator of this saga, and he said, "Yes, go there. Let's see what happens, and we'll just model it." I think at some point, he was a little bit scared of how far I was going with the comedy. But I saw him at an after party, the night before the Oscars, and he said, "I have to confess, I thought you could become crazy when you were working there, but now that I have seen the result, it's pretty good." So I said, "All right, good. You're not gonna kill me?" He said, "No, I'm not gonna kill you, man." That was my bet. That's what I asked him for, and he gave it to me. I had a tremendous amount of freedom to do it, which is not normal and doesn't happen. I never had that when I was doing Zorro. It was more strict with the script and the idea we had. And it was the same with Desperado, and all of the action movies that I have done in my career. But in this particular case, they allowed me to rewrite a lot of stuff and they practically approved of everything I brought.
What weapons did you get to use in this? Are there weapons that are specific to your character?
BANDERAS: Well, he didn't stop talking. It's impossible. He's a headache. Every time he arrives, it's a weapon of destruction of words. And practically everything was improvised. These guys are traveling for seven hours in a plane, and he doesn't stop for a second. These guys are trying to sleep. But at the end, you discover that there is a pain hidden somewhere in this guy and everything that he's doing is almost like a shield to protect himself.
What was it like to work with Patrick Hughes as your director, on set and during pre-production?
BANDERAS: I wouldn't like to be him. It's not an easy thing to have so many stars on set. But, he seemed to be managing beautifully. He has a great sense of humor, and he's open to receiving ideas. He established a great relationship with the creator, who is Sly Stallone, which was fundamental. If you don't understand each other, he would have been having a lot of trouble. But they seemed to understand each other, perfectly. They were planning everything, and he was open, even to tell Sly sometimes, "You have to do this." I like that. And I think that's what Sly is looking for, too. He needs somebody who actually brings him some objectivity about what he's doing, and I think he did it very well."
It sounds like he really pushed the comedy angle of the movie, let us know what you think about that in the comments.
And lastly here's a cool video of the stunt team 87Eleven acting out the Stallone vs Stone Cold fight scene from the first Expendables movie!

What Symptoms To Expect With Colon Cancer.
Colon cancer is a fast-growing disease that occurs when the cells in the large intestine mutate and grow too quickly, forming a growth called a polyp. There are a number of different symptoms that can indicate someone has colon cancer, they can sometimes be vague and not specific to colon cancer alone. Early detection is one of the best ways to be among the more than one million people who are currently survivors, so it is important for both men and women alike to recognize the symptoms of colon cancer when they do occur. In addition, there are several risk factors that can make you more likely to develop colon cancer, some of which can be controlled and others that cannot. Though colon cancer can eventually be eliminated from the body in many cases, the treatment methods used often depend on how early the disease was treated, which will be determined by how early the person sought treatment. Here's what you need to know about the symptoms of colon cancer.
Any change in daily bowel habits, including changes in the color or consistency of the stool, as well as unusual bouts of constipation or diarrhea, is a major warning sign that colon cancer might be present. Changes may also include the presence of blood in the stool, bleeding from the rectum, feeling that the bowels have not been emptied completely, and feeling an urgent need to make a bowel movement. The stool can appear long and thin, which may also indicate colon cancer. Sudden or persistent discomfort in the abdominal area, such as sharp pains, bloating, gas or cramping, is another common symptom of colon cancer. The area may also become painful to the touch.
Persistent pain in the pelvic area may accompany abdominal pain. The onset of weakness or fatigue is another of the major symptoms that indicate the presence of colon cancer. In addition, the disease may cause rapid and unexplainable weight loss, or loss of appetite.
Unfortunately, in some individuals there are no warning signs that colon cancer has taken root in the intestines, which is why having regular medical check-ups may help to save your life by detecting colon cancer in its earliest stages. The good news is that there is a survival rate of slightly more than 90 percent for those individuals whose colon cancer is detected in its earliest stages. However, no amount of testing or screening will help if the individual does not respond to the symptoms they may be experiencing. It is important to pay attention to the body and seek medical advice when something seems different or just not right.
There are several factors that make some individuals more likely to develop colon cancer. In addition to a family history of cancer, old age is one of the biggest factors that influences the appearance of the cancer. In fact, approximately 90 percent of all cases of colon cancer occur in those over age 50. Consider being screened for colon cancer annually starting at age 50; however, those with a family history should begin screening even sooner.
Other factors that increase the risk of developing colon cancer include obesity or living an inactive lifestyle, smoking, consuming excessive amounts of alcohol, eating a diet that is high in fat but low in fiber, and having diabetes. Though colon cancer can't be prevented entirely, there are certain lifestyle changes that can help. Those who smoke should quit, and drinking should be done in moderation, if at all. Losing weight or maintaining a healthy weight, in addition to regular exercise, can help prevent colon cancer and other diseases.
Screening for colon cancer should be done on a regular basis, especially for those in a high risk group. While the screening can be uncomfortable, it is the best way to catch colon cancer early. There are various tests that can be conducted, including:
– Colonoscopy – This test involves the doctor inserting a tiny tube into the rectum. On the tube is a camera which allows him to see the colon in its entirety and to look at any changes that many have occurred. This test is usually very effective and finding colon cancer early.
– CT Colonography – This CT scan is similar to a cat scan you would have for other issues. It focuses on the abdominal area and provides cross-sectional pictures of the colon and other abdominal organs to look for any suspicious areas.
– Fecal Occult Blood Test – This test of your feces is to check for the presence of blood in the stool.
– Flexible Sigmoidoscopy – This test looks at the bottom portion of your colon and the entire rectum.
If you have the symptoms of colon cancer, it is important to seek medical attention right away.

EUR/USD: forecast for July 13-19
EUR/USD slipped 1.0900 on the past week. However, on Thursday the Greek Prime Minister Tsipras proposed a bag of reforms to the European leaders, switching the market sentiment towards buying the European currency. As a result, at the end of the week EUR/USD recovered back above 1.1100.
European leaders will be discussing the Greek proposal over the weekend. If they find it not sufficient, on Monday euro could come under resumed bearish pressure, targeting 1.0910, 1.0820 and then lower. If a compromise is found by Monday, the pair may recover towards the 1.1400 mark. We don't see any fundamental reasons for a move higher.
Apart from the Greek news, pay attention to the ZEW economic sentiment index on Monday. Thursday is another eventful day of the coming week: ECB meeting, Mario Draghi's press-conference and final June CPI are on the schedule.

Cookie Additions
Cooking tips for the caring cook.
Cravable Cookies
- For a tasty twist on chocolate chip cookies, chill the chocolate chip cookie dough, wrap the dough around mini Snickers candy bars, and then bake.
- Your favorite peanut butter cookies will stay nice and moist if you add 1/2 cup of sour cream when you're mixing the dough.
- To fancy up the top of a cookie, try placing a wide-patterned doily on top. Sprinkle powdered sugar over it and remove.
- When rolling cookie dough, sprinkle board with powdered sugar instead of flour. Too much flour makes the dough heavy.
- Do not overmix your cookie dough.
- Do not overbake. Closely monitor oven temperature and baking time.
- Think outside the box - dried fruits in place of chocolate chips, chopped cashews or pecans instead of peanuts, etc.
How About Flower Butter?
You can consider replacing standard butter in your cookie recipes that call for butter with Flower Butter.
What you will need: 1/2 - 1 cup chopped fresh or dried petals and 1 pound sweet unsalted butter.
Finely chop flower petals and mix into softened butter. Let mix stand for several hours at room temperature, then refrigerate for several days to bring out the flavor. Can be frozen for several months. Wonderful on breads or used in sugar cookie or pound cake recipes.

I hate eminem
seriously though... don't sleep on EMINEM!! ok i'll admit, Encore was meh and Relapse was a disappointment. but i haven't given up hope. b/c here's how i see it: when eminem tries... he's unstoppable. but he's not always trying. You could tell on Encore that he was barely trying. He was rapping about nonsense and making up words and accents. i feel like that record was him just seeing what he could get away with. "how little can i do and still make a hit record?" i could feel himself getting bored with rap on Encore (and thus why he "retired" after it was released). but he's started to get that itch again. Why Relapse was a disappointment: I was expecting Relapse to be the return of Eminem. but it wasn't. but i feel like Eminem was disappointed with Relapse as well (which is why he went back to make Relapse 2 immediately after Relapse 1 came out). It was kinda like a practice to me. Relapse was more about Eminem getting back into the game. He's like an athlete who sat out a couple of years, then came back. Of course after a few years, you're not gonna be like you were when you were at your peak. its gonna take time to rebuild that swag and energy. but he's coming back. people saying that he fell off is giving him the motivation to try again. his verse on Forever? he hands down owned the song that featured 3 of the "10 hottest MC's in the game"). its like the real return of eminem is coming out now. ive seen more Eminem (doing stuff in public, shows, tv) since he started working on Relapse 2 than when he released Relapse 1. its almost like Relapse 2 will be the real return of Eminem (knock in wood). and that's why i haven't given up hope on him.2 Weeks ago in Music Discussion

This review is from: Amped Wireless RTA15 High Power 700mW Dual Band AC1200 Wi-Fi Gigabit Router
-The router's signal reaches where I want it to.
-It's compatible with (ac).
-Good wireless speeds on both the 5.0 and 2.4 Ghz channels.
-It comes with good instructions on how to set it up and the configuration interface is great.
-The connection to the internet drops out randomly whenever you go past 1 or 2 MB/s and I've barely seen it go past that as far as top download speeds are concerned.
-Whenever it does what I've mentioned above the connection doesn't come back until you reset it.
Other Thoughts:
I did not order this but my mom did and I have had experience using and configuring this router.
I really want to give this more eggs but with the severe reliability issue I can't give it more. Windows 7-8 even says I have 4-5 bars but as soon as I download something it turns the connection to "limited" and I have to reset it, and if I am right next to it it does the same thing. If I use the router this one is replacing I can download anything uninterrupted, I just need to be closer to it. For almost $200 I would of expected at least reliable internet usage.
Manufacturer Response:
Please contact our support staff to see if we can correct this issue for you. You can try flashing the firmware and check to see if you notice any changes. You may want to consider exchanging the unit with Newegg if you are still within the return period if swapping cables and flashing the firmware does not make any difference. You should not be experiencing drops like you are describing. If you are out of this period we can start the RMA process to get you a working unit. We are sorry for the inconvenience that you may have had.

Wembley extends NFL deal through to 2020
LONDON (Reuters) - The NFL has extended its agreement to play regular season games at London's Wembley stadium for another five years through to 2020, they said in a statement on Thursday.
The Jacksonville Jaguars, who had committed to playing one home game per season until 2016, have also extended their deal throughout the NFL's new agreement.
The NFL has staged games at Wembley since 2007, with London's iconic venue set to host three games in 2015 including Sunday's clash between the Jaguars and the Buffalo Bills.
"This new agreement extends a very successful, long-term relationship," said Mark Waller, the NFL's Executive Vice President of International.
Earlier this year the NFL agreed a 10-year partnership with Premier League soccer club Tottenham Hotspur to play a minimum of two games per year at their new stadium, which is due to open in 2018.

They found 2 fibrocystic lumps as well as saline leakage in the lower quadrant of my left breast. They can not visual see the leak and no rupture. Implants were put in 1985. The radiologist report says neg BI_RADS CAt 1 (neg.) can I have the implant and the cysts removed as well as having a new implant put in?
Firbocystic Lumps Found As Well As Saline Leakage
Doctor Answers 5
Depends on the cyst size
Exchanging implants and removing lumps
Fibrocystic lumps are benign (non-cancerous), so if you wanted to have two fibrocystic masses removed at the time of implant exchange you could ask your plastic surgeon to do both. If there was any concern for malignancy then you would want to get that worked up first, but from your description is does not sound like that is the case. As far as leaking of a saline implant, the fluid tends to get absorbed by your body. It is not surprising to have a leak in 26 year old implants. If you do in fact have a leak, I would recommend getting the implants exchanged sooner rather than later to avoid any further problems. I recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon for this type of procedure. Good luck!
Web reference: http://www.anitapatelmd.com/PhotoGallery_RevisionalBreastSurgery_400163.aspx
You can do that which you have suggested. The question is how will things look afterward. That depends upon how much breast tissue you have and what the status of your implants and implant capsules might be.

John Di Saia MD

Fibrocystic lumps and saline implant leakage
Leakage of saline is generally not visualized on imaging studies, as the saline (salt water) is reabsorbed over time by the body. In any case, your best option is to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon, so that you can be evaluated and can discuss your treatment options.
Good luck.

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse's Buffett Rule legislation takes center stage in American politics today, with the Senate expected to vote on the measure tonight.
But it's not the only tax measure Congress will take up with Tax Day approaching. The GOP-controlled House will consider a measure, sponsored by Majority Leader Eric Cantor, that would hand a 20 percent tax deduction to businesses employing fewer than 500 people. That's about 99.9 percent of American businesses, according to the Associated Press.
Economists don't think the GOP's tax deduction for small business would do much to spur hiring. And, as the GOP is quick to note, the Buffett Rule would barely make a dent in the deficit. Neither measure, of course, is expected to make it through a divided Congress.But if these are pure political plays, Whitehouse's bill clearly has the upper hand for now - with a big assist from President Obama, who sees clear
advantages in promoting the wealthy-pay-their-fair-share measure in the
run-up to his fall tilt with rich guy Mitt Romney.
The measure may not prove its true political value, though, for months.
Democrats will surely resurrect the bill a few times between now and November - Senator Whitehouse has said as much. And if the economy continues to sputter, and the GOP's tax-cutting proposals get more attention, the power of the Warren-and-his-secretary tale - in its simplicity and call to morality - may be the best tool the party has to blunt the impact of the bad news.

Tribal Economy: Fact or Myth?
While gaming is a significant revenue stream for some tribes, it is not the only source of revenue being pursued by Pechanga. The information below will share with you our focus on economic diversity and our efforts to use our revenue for the betterment of our people and the community at large.
There are over 560 federally recognized Tribes in the United States and hundreds of other state recognized Tribes. Nearly half do not have gaming at all. In California, 52 Tribes have gaming out of hundreds in the state.
All American Indian Tribes have gaming.
Indian gaming does help diminish the poverty rate of Native people, often by providing decent work, benefits and community infrastructure. It is not a guarantee of individual wealth.
The current national poverty rate among Native American people in the United States is high, with nearly one in four living below the poverty level, according to the 2000 US Census. 13% of tribal nations with gaming represent over 60% of annual gaming revenues nationally, while 130 tribes with gaming earned only 2% of total Indian gaming revenues.
All Tribes with gaming are rich, and all their members are rich.
Tribes are not private businesses, they are governmental businesses. Sovereign Tribal governments, like private states, have the ability to allow gaming operations, such as lotteries, within their borders and to use portions of revenues generated from gaming to help provide essential services to their citizens.
Even so, there are differences. For instance, states are never mandated to share revenues with other states. Tribes, however, are often mandated via the compact process to provide portions of revenue to a state's general fund.
Tribes operating Casinos are private businesses.
Tribal members do pay taxes: those who work off-reservation, or outside of direct tribal government, pay the same income, property and sales taxes that any other American citizen pays.
Tribal Governments, like individual states, municipalities, and other units of government are not required to pay corporate taxes to each other. However, gaming Tribes in California are required to pay into state-controlled funds that benefit local communities, the state, and non-gaming tribes. Read more about Tribal community contributions on Economic Impact
MYTHTribes don't pay taxes and therefore don't contribute to the well-being of their state or surrounding area.
Pechanga contributes significant economic benefits to its neighbors.
Tribes with gaming don't provide economic benefits to non-natives, or to their neighboring communities.

The MachineMature
Do you ever want to give up and die?
Shredded to pieces by The Machine,
Every slit wrist bleeds defeat,
Mechanical minds of clones keep going,
Outracing us,
If we give in now, the System wins,
It's inhabitants seem to multiply like bacteria,
Sometimes one breaks free for a few years,
But returns to the driving force behind the engine,
When called on by the higher power.
We lose again and again.

When a trucker driver sees that a thief is trying to get away with his phone, the driver unleashes his kung fu skills to kick the thief to the ground on his speeding moped.
In the video clip below, which was captured on surveillance footage, you can see the thief climbing up into the cab of the semi-truck to grab the driver's cellphone. He then jumps back down and pretends it is his phone before hopping on his scooter and speeding away.
But the eagle-eyed truck driver and apparent kung fu master noticed the man in the act of stealing. He wasn't able to get there fast enough. But he didn't forget what the thief looked like and found him again a few minutes later…
CCTV footage from Foshan in Guangdong, south east China, shows the trucker running out into the road.
The driver, who everyone says is a kung fu master, leaps up into the air as the scooter comes straight toward him.
The master clears the handlebars and then delivers a flying kick to the driver's chest – knocking him off the speeding scooter…
The criminal falls to the ground and the trucker gets to his feet before punching the thief in the shoulder. With the crook on his back, the truck driver and kung fu master allows him to stand – only to watch him fall again as the scooter pushes him back to the cement.The footage, which was filmed this Sunday, then shows the moped rider giving the stolen phone back to the kung fu master.
Thousands of people are impressed by the footage.
"Wow and the cig kept on glowing in his mouth thats a Dude..!!"
"it takes years of training in the mountains to learn that move!"
"thats how its done …… LIKE A BOSSSSS !!!!!"
"Kick ass great. But how he managed to spot the scooter rider coming back and sprint into action is even more amazing."
"Love it – good on the truck driver although I can't help thinking that in the UK the truck driver would probably have got done for endangering the life of the motorcyclist."
"Thats the way to do it. What a a move!"
Others are skeptical that this guy is a genuine kung fu mater. They just think he got lucky.
"Hardly a kung fu kick. Bruce Lee would have leapt up on his bike and kung fu kicked him, taken his phone, fried an egg, and pulled his underpants up over his head, all before his bike had even hit the floor!"
"Kung fu master? Really? So how many years training do you need for the flying-butt-to-the-face move?"
"Flying butt cheek to the face is more like it."
Do you think the truck driver was right to exact justice on the thief? Would he be able to do this in America?
Was this man a real kung fu master or did he just get lucky? Contribute your thoughts and look at the video again now!

Group Helps Children Thrive by Five
Early childhood education is the best way to prepare the next generation to succeed, and early intervention is key to identify any potential problems in a child's development.
Parents are a child's first teacher, and their involvement in their kids' initial schooling is critical to build a foundation for their formal education to come. But, for some, there are barriers. The need to work multiple jobs can sap time that would otherwise be spent with children. A teen mom may be still growing up herself and struggle to raise her child. Other may lack the know-how to prepare children for all the challenges they are sure to face.
For those who need help, there are ample resources available in the community. But many don't know where to turn or how to ask for the help they need. The Bristol Warren Thrive by Five group aims to point families who need help in the right direction.
"There are a lot of things going on in the community, but people don't know about them or where to find their services," said Donna Ramos, director of family development for East Bay Community Action and one of the founders of Thrive by Five. "Our idea is to be able to refer them to an agency where they can get the help they need so they can thrive by 5."
The group combines family service organizations from throughout the East Bay and around the state including such groups as the Bristol Warren Regional School District's Parents as Teachers organization, the Women's Resource Center, East Bay Community Action Program, the Parenting Support Group, and the East Bay Family Care Community Partnership, to name a few. Whether parents are seeking advice on early childhood education, screenings for developmental disabilities, or just need advice on raising a child, Thrive by Five aims to be a one-stop shop where families can go to seek whatever help they need, particularly where children are concerned.
"We're there for all families," said Emily Spence, program manager for Parents as Teachers and co-founder of Thrive by Five. "We're trying to reach everyone we can so all children are ready for school and families can deal with society and all its complexities. We help with the bumps in the road all parents face."
Community outreach is an important way for Thrive by Five to make its services known and available to the community. The group is planning its first major event to introduce itself to families that may not know its services exist — a Resource Fair at Hugh Cole Elementary School on April 12. Members of the group will be on hand from 9:30 a.m. to noon to answer parents' questions and point them toward the organization that can best meet whatever family needs they have.
The fair includes activities for all family members to enjoy while finding the resources they need. Kids can explore fire trucks scheduled to be on hand and watch a car excavation demonstration and an owl presentation by the Audubon Society. Bristol Police will be on hand to conduct child seat safety checks and teach parents how to properly install the seats. The Bristol Theatre Company will perform, and there will be yoga and Zoomba demonstrations, to go with face painting, fingerprinting and all kinds of kid-friendly activities.
"It's to bring families together," Ms. Spence said. "With all the fun stuff going on, we hope to bring people in, and hopefully, they'll walk away with all the information they need."
For more information on the Resource Fair scheduled for April 12, or to learn more about the services available through Thrive by Five members, contact Emily Spence at eps firstname.lastname@example.com or attend one of the group's meetings on the first Wednesday of every month at 9 a.m. at Rogers Free Library on Hope Street.

The distinguished economist, 78, a Labour supporter and father of the BBC's Robert Peston, said that proposals from the Senior Salaries Review Body to curb overnight allowances and other perks would leave Labour with few people willing to work in Opposition.
New figures showed 100 peers claimed £50,000 each last year. One Labour peer, Baroness Adams, claimed £67,000 despite having not taken part in a Lords debate in four years.
In their report, the SSRB recommended that the allowances be replaced with a simpler scheme to bring peers in line with reforms being introduced in the House of Commons. This would see overnight expenses limited to rented accommodation and hotels, for which, for the first time, they would have to provide receipts.
Lord Peston said: "Having spent 10 years slogging my guts out on the opposition front benches at great personal cost, I do not think that, if I were the same age again, I would remotely consider it my duty."

"Wow, erm, that was," he stumbled, his body still hovering over mine.
"Amazing," I finished. I tugged his curls and he shot me a wide smile, kissing me again. It had to just be crazy hormones, because I couldn't remember feeling this horny before. The way his body pressed against mine driving me insane. I itched to get out of my clothes but the rational part of my mind told me not too. That was way too soon. It was with a pained groan that I pulled away.
"My family's going to wonder where I am," I sighed.
"Mine too," Riley agreed. We watched each other for painful moment, both our breaths harsh. Was I shivering? I never expected kissing to effect me this much. Riley licked his dry lips and I found the simple act made me want to pin him to nearest surface. I squeezed my eyes and shook my head.
"Riley," I murmured.
"Yeah?" he asked, pushing himself off me to stand up. I missed his body warmth very quickly.
"I think I might be gay," I finished, running a hand through my hair. The implications of the statement suddenly hitting me.
"Really, never would have guessed," Riley laughed.
"But that's a bad thing," I whispered, standing up slowly. Riley couldn't think up a response, glancing down at the floor himself.
"Yeah, well, fuck 'em," Riley growled, a fierce expression on his face. "C'mon, let's head back," he said, his voice a bit calmer. His tone really surprised me, although it shouldn't have. He must have only recently starting shifting, so his anger was rawer. I followed him out, waiting patiently as Riley checked no one could see us leave.
"Wanna meet up later?" he asked as we walked back into the forests.
"Yeah," I replied, suddenly feeling very awkward. I'd just kissed someone for the first time, and it had been him. I was still confused about being gay, but at the same time it explained a lot. What would my family think? I decided not to worry about it, smiling at Riley instead.
"Okay, see you then," he yelled, waving and running off. I guessed to where ever his family where. I smiled again and started to walk then froze.
"Erm," I murmured, realising I was still in the middle of the woods, with no clue where I was meant to go. I looked upwards, searching for smoke, there had to be enough people making food. The trees stretched way too high though. Maybe I could walk back the way we came and find someone by the lake? I turned and walked a bit and paused again. Was it right behind us actually? I think I remember making turns at times while following Riley.
"Shit," I whispered. I could just call out one of my siblings names, but then everyone would hear it and that would be far too embarrassing. I walked more, east I think, when I heard voices. I followed them, hesitating when I recognised the words. I clung to the nearest tree and spotted four men, three of them were circling the fourth. The three were adults and the odd one out had to be in his late teens.
"So, me and my buddies heard some rumours. Something about you being a queer. That shit ain't true is it?" The man speaking had a gruff voice, like he smoked too many cigarettes. He had messy stubble and a tangle of dirty blond hair. I couldn't make out many other features but the other two shared his facial structure. They were definitely twins, sharing the same dark hair and blue eyes. All three were very muscular. Even though I wasn't able to sense a wolfs aura, I could tell the man who spoke was an alpha.
"So what if it is?" the younger man replied, shooting a glance over his shoulder. He jumped and I peered further round to see there were two others. They were walking over casually. All five faces around the young man were a mixture of disgust and joy. I'd never seen an expression like it before and was confused. I'd heard words like 'queer' thrown around in a bad light, but this felt different.
"Ah Felix, John, good of you to join us," the alpha murmured, smirking. "Oh, how rude of me. My name is Travis. My two nephews here are Mitchell and Samuel." Felix shared the black hair of the other two, although his eyes were more of a sea-green shade. John looked far more like Travis, although his blond hair was brighter.

Man Gets 8 Months in Federal for Slapping Crying Toddler
Apparently when a flight was landing into Atlanta, Joe Hundley, slapped a 19-month-old baby. Not only did he slapped the baby, he used a racial slur which wasn't released but coming from an Caucasian man towards a African-American baby you can guess what was used. The plea agreement was for a 6 months sentence but due to his past history of assault, the judge added two more months. How would you feel if a stranger pulled this move with your child? Leave your thoughts below.

No questionsMature
Well, everything was going swimmingly. I could already begin to sense the taint on her, though it was faint. Well, she'd found my bedroom in that most recent dream of hers.
I smiled to myself as I watched her from across the road from where she worked. I had to admit, I was rather enjoying this little game. This sort of work hadn't been what I was created for, it was something I'd chosen. Of course, that didn't mean that I stuck with the tainting all the time.
Leaning against a building, people tended not to notice me; their brains refused to notice me. It was simply one of the many wonderful things about being a demon. I watched Sarah closely as she shuffled around behind the counter. She was tired and fatigued, which was what all the dream-screaming would do to you. Her limbs moved as though they were as heavy as lead and as stiff as a board. She was going to be feeling like that for a quite a while, at least until she was fully tainted.
Sarah stopped for a second, resting against the counter while there were no customers she needed to serve. She closed her eyes for a moment and when she opened them, they were looking right at me. I froze for the slightest moment before pulling the shadows to my defence. She looked around the building she was stood in, as if trying to remember where she was.
I took a deep breath. That was impossible, she couldn't have seen me. Not unless I wanted her to. Which I didn't. Frowning, I tried to remind myself that she was begin to take to the taint; she'd probably be able to see me, and then just think she'd forgotten something when she looked away. She'd probably be different than all the others I'd whispered to anyway; apparently she was 'perfect', whereas they'd only been 'suitable'. But what her different?
I shook my head, reminding myself to ask questions. Get the job done, move on, take time off for a little while, go back, get my next assignment, that was what I needed to do. I couldn't be rash, or stupid about any of this. I also needed to do it discreetly so no one from the Other side would notice and come to stop me. Interference from Them was never good, especially when a lot of things seemed to be riding on this. Her file had been marked Confidential, and would have to stay that way. If anybody else found out, from our side or Their's, I'd be killed for it. Literally. Then brought back and killed again. That was what had happened to the last one after all.
Beginning to get bored, I began to watch Sarah again. I willed her into a seat, made her sit in it and sent her off to sleep again. I made sure to make this one as interesting as possible, for both our sake's.

Ji-Hae Park:
The violin, and my dark night of the soul
In her quest to become a world-famous violinist, Ji-Hae Park fell into a severe depression. Only music was able to lift her out again — showing her that her goal needn't be to play lofty concert halls, but instead to bring the wonder of the instrument to as many people as possible.

FDA Approves Empagliflozin for Reducing CVD Death »
"The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved empagliflozin (Jardiance, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals Inc) for the new indication of improving survival in adults with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD)."...
Read the FDA Approves Empagliflozin for Reducing CVD Death article »
The following serious adverse reactions are described below or elsewhere in the prescribing information:
- Pancreatitis [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
- Heart Failure [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
- Hypersensitivity Reactions [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
- Hepatic Effects [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]
Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
A total of 14,778 patients with type 2 diabetes participated in 14 randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trials of whom 9052 subjects were treated with NESINA, 3469 subjects were treated with placebo and 2257 were treated with an active comparator. The mean duration of diabetes was seven years, the mean body mass index (BMI) was 31 kg/m² (49% of patients had a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m² ), and the mean age was 58 years (26% of patients ≥ 65 years of age). The mean exposure to NESINA was 49 weeks with 3348 subjects treated for more than one year.
In a pooled analysis of these 14 controlled clinical trials, the overall incidence of adverse reactions was 73% in patients treated with NESINA 25 mg compared to 75% with placebo and 70% with active comparator. Overall discontinuation of therapy due to adverse reactions was 6.8% with NESINA 25 mg compared to 8.4% with placebo or 6.2% with active comparator.
Adverse reactions reported in ≥ 4% of patients treated with NESINA 25 mg and more frequently than in patients who received placebo are summarized in Table 1.

Hypoglycemic events were documented based upon a blood glucose value and/or clinical signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia.
In the monotherapy study, the incidence of hypoglycemia was 1.5% in patients treated with NESINA compared to 1.6% with placebo. The use of NESINA as add-on therapy to glyburide or insulin did not increase the incidence of hypoglycemia compared to placebo. In a monotherapy study comparing NESINA to a sulfonylurea in elderly patients, the incidence of hypoglycemia was 5.4% with NESINA compared to 26% with glipizide (Table 2).

|*Adverse reactions of
hypoglycemia were based on all reports of symptomatic and asymptomatic
hypoglycemia; a concurrent glucose measurement was not required;
intent-to-treat population.
† Severe events of hypoglycemia were defined as those events requiring medical assistance or exhibiting depressed level or loss of consciousness or seizure.
In the EXAMINE trial, the incidence of investigator reported hypoglycemia was 6.7% in patients receiving NESINA and 6.5% in patients receiving placebo. Serious adverse reactions of hypoglycemia were reported in 0.8% of patients treated with NESINA and in 0.6% of patients treated with placebo.
Renal Impairment
In glycemic control trials in patients with type 2 diabetes, 3.4% of patients treated with NESINA and 1.3% of patients treated with placebo had renal function adverse reactions. The most commonly reported adverse reactions were renal impairment (0.5% for NESINA and 0.1% for active comparators or placebo), decreased creatinine clearance (1.6% for NESINA and 0.5% for active comparators or placebo) and increased blood creatinine (0.5% for NESINA and 0.3% for active comparators or placebo) [see Use in Specific Populations].
In the EXAMINE trial of high CV risk type 2 diabetes patients, 23% of patients treated with NESINA and 21% of patients treated with placebo had an investigator reported renal impairment adverse reaction. The most commonly reported adverse reactions were renal impairment (7.7% for NESINA and 6.7% for placebo), decreased glomerular filtration rate (4.9% for NESINA and 4.3% for placebo) and decreased renal clearance (2.2% for NESINA and 1.8% for placebo). Laboratory measures of renal function were also assessed. Estimated glomerular filtration rate decreased by 25% or more in 21.1% of patients treated with NESINA and 18.7% of patients treated with placebo. Worsening of chronic kidney disease stage was seen in 16.8% of patients treated with NESINA and in 15.5% of patients treated with placebo.
Postmarketing Experience
The following adverse reactions have been identified during the postmarketing use of NESINA. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis, angioedema, rash, urticaria and severe cutaneous adverse reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome, hepatic enzyme elevations, fulminant hepatic failure, severe and disabling arthralgia, acute pancreatitis, diarrhea, constipation, nausea, and ileus [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Read the Nesina (alogliptin tablets) Side Effects Center for a complete guide to possible side effects
NESINA is primarily renally excreted. Cytochrome (CYP) P450-related metabolism is negligible. No significant drug-drug interactions were observed with the CYP-substrates or inhibitors tested or with renally excreted drugs [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

Piers Anthony tells his own remarkable life story in this candid autobiography, a volume that is sure to intrigue and entertain his many fans-and infuriate his critics. The book begins with a review of the author's early years, revealing new and telling details about his upbringing at the hands of two brilliant but often careless parents, including a riveting section about their harrowing experiences as expatriates in Spain just before the Second World War.
But most of the book focuses on the past fifteen years since Bio of an Ogre (the first volume of his autobiography) was published, a time both of personal progress and professional frustration for Anthony, as his works became increasingly ambitious while his sales began to slow. He offers cautionary tales on the pitfalls of the "bottom line" publishing mentality, as well as scathing portraits of several well-known publishing figures.
Candid, opinionated and endlessly fascinating, How Precious Was That While is an intimate self-portrait by one of the most intriguing writers of our time.

In the 2014 best seller, "The Second Machine Age," Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee argue that this information era will leverage software-driven machines to substitute and replace humans. At the center of that debate is the question of data and how powerful it can become. After all, the more that machines can know and learn, the more intelligent they will become.
Throughout the industrial revolution over a century ago, industrious people found ways to make new and more valuable jobs as labor-heavy duties were replaced by machines. The same is happening in today's economy. A key development has been to better organize data to serve human demands, commonly known as smart data.
So what does this mean for companies that want to evolve with the times and leverage smart data? Matiss Ansviesulis, CEO of Creamfinance -- Europe's fastest growing Fintech Company -- recently gave me a rundown on how smart data will manipulate the future of Big Data:
Smart Data will push the methodology of Big Data. You can see it in the already apparent obsolescence of social media data sets.
"Using information from social media, on which big data supporters rely, can bring negative consequences due to personal data leakage, which the customer may not be fully aware of," explains Ansviesulis.
Companies that use the big data approach collect a variety of personal data from social platforms. Thus, in the case of data loss, huge volumes of customer data can be made public. Far from being hypothetical, this scenario has played out time and again in recent years and is a compelling reason to approach data acquisition differently.
Collecting a ton of unstructured data has zero value. Collecting structured, smart data is extremely valuable because it follows patterns and creates predictability. In other words, big data aggregates information, smart data creates data points for decision-making.
It is not just about looking at terabytes of info; it is about making it useful.
"Smart data is actionable data that is available real-time and is actionable. When I say actionable, I mean a couple of different things, such as data accessibility, quality, accuracy, liquidity, and organization. With rapidly changing business dynamics and decisions, availability of real-life data is crucial, as it translates into smooth decision making for the Company and a rapid service for the customer," says Ansviesulis.

"Ahhh! Sarutobi-jiji, my eyes are burning." Exclaimed the petite little eleven year old as she flopped down on the roof of the building where he worked/lived. Sarutobi glanced over at her from where he stood, his lips curving up a little bit at her childish antics while she rubbed her eyes with the back of her small hands and made an irritated sound.
"Well, I'm sorry you're eyes are burning Naru-" He said as he thought, Especially since it's my fault. Her job of protecting the village and carrying out assassinations had been especially brutal on her of late. Wearing the poor child to a frazzle and then some. "But that's only because you've been working so hard. I'll stay up late tonight finishing the paper work that's piled up so that you can rest and get a full nights sleep for once."
Naru perked up instantly and removed her hands from her eyes to give him a calculating look before saying, "Alright, but if I'm bothered or woken up there's going to be hell to pay."
"Language, young lady." Sarutobi growled as he nudged her with his foot.
Naru made another irritated sound and grabbed his ankle and gave a not so gentle pull- trying to throw him off balance so that she could initiate another bout of Taijutsu training. Sarutobi cackled evilly and quickly pulled himself free of her grasp and poked her in the chest the second she got up and said sternly,
"Oh, I don't think so, young lady. I'm not training you anymore today. Not when you're practically exhausted."
The blonde shrugged her slender shoulders and muttered. "Whatever." Then fell silent as she looked away. There was a heartbeat or so of silence between them. Just like there always was as the elder sighed and put his hand on top of her shoulder length blonde hair and said,
"So...PB&J sandwhiches sound okay for a quick dinner?"
Naru tilted her head back and looked up at him and gave him one of her rare smiles and chirped. "Okay." As she took hold of his hand as he removed it from the top of her head and turned around and let him lead her towards the closed door thirty feet away. He needed to feed her, get her in the bath and get ready for the wrestling match that she affectionately called, 'story time'.
1 yr later-
Sarutobi sighed as he peered into his crystal ball. Trying to locate his wayward partner, Naru, before any harm or trouble could find her and made a disgruntled sound when he finally found her loitering outside of the school...again.
Well this isn't going to be good for my heart. He thought as one of the academy teachers- Iruka Umino- had noticed her outside on one of the swings and got an agrieved look on his face, as if to ask the heavens above; 'Kami, why me?' and set his text and chalk aside and told the kids in the classroom that he would be back in a moment. There seemed to be a stray child outside on the playground in desperate need of educating.
It was at this point that Sarutobi let the images fade to nothing and returned his crystal ball to it's original state and leaned back in his chair and ran his hands over his face.
Poor Naru had become a tad bit obsessed with the school and everyone in it of late.
Not that that hadn't been expected at some point it was just that he had no idea how to handle her obssession. But he suppossed that after twelve years of living a sheltered life away from the world, that this was simply her small way of trying to reconnect with what she had been kept from.
It wasn't like anyone could hurt her anyways. She had too much of the demon in her to be truly hurt by something or someone.
Still he worried about her. She may hold one of the most evil creatures within her small fragile little body, but that in no way meant that she understood or knew the meaning of true evil.

A Return To The Cathedral
A sequel of sorts to "A Promise To Keep To You, The Tainted Saints"
Follow Me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pages/Damien-Leniart/120766851447086
They cut out my tongue in fifth grade
When they ignored my complaints of injustice
I woke up to the feeling that I was a leaf floating in the haze
Raindrops fall juxtaposed with crippled insurrections of hearts colliding
There was a time I knew who I was
But that was strangled by second guessing
The story of my tainted saints continues
The tainted saints I first knew died within months of lost respect and burning flowers
They never knew that I loved them for who they were,
A mix of scars and muddled bones, cracked at centers of distrust and hate
With beating hearts and no one to abate the shame
I loved the tainted saints.
I loved the tainted saints as I watched them brace for blades that cut inside their hearts like lies
All their friends blind to the madness that came from the saints and their broken home
I watched as the sisters corroded away like eroded banks, and tried to use my intellect while my life became a hole where all my memories twisted into arrows
Arrows that flew across painted mindscapes I could never reproduce
There are three Tainted Saints in my life
One was the inspiration, she who preaches quick witted truth with the ease of pulling a trigger
The other two, I could not save, sisters, Miranda and Maria
I have struggled, and I have suffered
I have forgotten and I have sinned
I have learned that I am no longer a slave to approval
But to Him
I entered a church four months before coming here
They sat in chairs in a dance hall as a woman waxed insane about children in hell
Gays not inheriting the Kingdom, hushed spoken tongues as though the Spirit scared them
That there was ONE path to God (Pay money to find out)
Then one day I walked through a cathedral, and saw her face upon the glass window
The Tainted Saint who was once (to herself) a worthless whore
I alone can see her. I alone can hear her
She is still crying tears of sheltered blood with all her shattered dreams now slowly disintegrating as time dissipates in steady ticks.
She looks at me, and her silver eyes gaze across the marble floor
Evermore thinking of that past life where the sister tried to die
The guilt that still lays dormant, waiting for the right time to be used by Satan in a lie
That emptiness, the kind that pervades that which animates her
The lie she's told to others, even though they be slight reoccurs to that steel-trap mind
She must
I stand baffled, my eyes wide
She prostrates herself towards the cross, streaming fresh droplets of rain
Down down down the whitewashed tiles
The look of subjugation mixed with anguish that would stain the windows forevermore
And leave me shaken to the core.
I kneel in front of this woman, placing a hand softly on her shoulder as she cries against my chest
I want so badly to hold and console her as she cleanses herself of horrible sorrow
But I have no words to ease the pain
Then they come soft as silk and warm as honey
"Darling, there's no need to grieve anymore
Over failed alarms you ignored
No need to apologize for the suffering you and others endured
You were forgiven of that so long ago
It still stands my dear, because His word is eternal
You are forgiven, cherished and adored
And He is always nearest when you need support
Believe in Him and especially His forgiveness.
You hold the ideal I had before I knew you existed
The heart you have conflagrates and invades mine with its burning embers
I have nothing to say but how much I love the spirit that we share that is drifting through the midnight air
Beneath the bullets of past regret lies a heart craving solace."
I pause, looking down into her eyes
She heaves a deep sigh, and I wonder why
Why is she in disarray?
I am compelled to stay
Then the words of the Father come and say
"You were sent here to serve and to save the tormented from early graves
You're still young, and the path you are on, leads to better days
I called you here to send a message to the tainted saint
And soon you too shall see the dawn of a new age."
I help the tainted saint to her feet
"Dear warrior, you are saved because you believe
Shining upon man, dear warrior, you're a prophetess of tomorrow
Saving souls and guiding the willing sheep to The Father."
We walk out of the Cathedral, hand in hand
And are reborn again, watching paper thin sand sift though tides
Having a purpose, and not really knowing why.
