Luca: KidnapMature
Forever? Gemme wants to be with me forever? Okay, I'll admit that thought freaks me out just a little bit. I've never been great at commitment. Unless you count commitment to drugs. And I don't think you do.
Eventually, I got dressed again and we wandered back to the car. The walk from the sand to the car woke me up again, so I took to the driver's seat, reversing out of the space and driving through the empty car lot.
When we get back to the highway, I don't speed up too much, instead, content to cruise along through the night, smoking and talking to Gemme. Oh, and being annoyed by all the sand in my hair.
"I can't wait to get home now." She smiles, dusting off the sand that had dried to her skin.
"I'll drive faster after I've filled up the tank again," I say, smiling too as I turn into a gas station. "If you want me to go faster that is," I laugh slightly, remembering how terrified of my driving she was when I was going at a decent speed.
"I don't mind, as long as you don't crash," she tells me and I nod. I'll admit it's a miracle I have a driver's licence at all, I barely remember getting it. I do my best not to think about what Gemme had said on the way to the beach earlier. I still can't believe that the things I can't remember are because I asked her to wipe my memory...
It's just too impossible.
When I finish filling up the tank, Gemme hands me some money again and I go up to the shop thing and wander inside, looking for something to eat. I pick up a red bull and some random candy things, figuring the sugar and caffeine will keep me awake longer before I go up and pay. As the woman at the til counts out my change, I glance out of the window, bored.
Except that what I see really makes me wish I'd paid at the pump. Some guy is dragging Gemme across the forecourt, her screams barely audible inside the shop, muffled by his hand over her mouth.
I tell the cashier to forget it and race out of the shop, trying to catch up with the guy, but he's already got Gemme in the car. He's about to get in and drive off, but I make the door slam itself on his head as he climbs inside the car. He cries out and falters, but I don't reach him in time. He recovers quickly and drives off.
I don't need the caffeine anymore. Adrenaline pumps through my veins as I sprint back to the BMW and speed off after them. My first thought is to make the guy's car tires explode, or to run it off the road, but I don't want to hurt Gemme. Same reason why I don't reach inside of the guy and choke him or give him a heart attack.
I bite my lower lip slightly, following them. Glancing at the speed dial, I see the needle hovering past a hundred and I turn my eyes back to the car in front, making sure the guy doesn't suddenly turn off and try to lose me.
The road is totally deserted, so I pull into the wrong side of the road and floor the gas pedal so that I'm in line with the guy. As I pass the back seat window, I look over and see Gemme passed out on the back seat. In the driver's seat, I can see the guy concentrating on the road, his face illuminated really weirdly by the lights in his dashboard. He shoots a quick look over at me and I almost lose control of my hands on the wheel as I see who it is.

I have been using this shampoo and others from the range continuously for a few months. It takes a while to get accustomed to it because of the lack of lather. It has improved my hair texture dramatically. It lives up to the claims that the company makes which is rare.

This is a mild shampoo in that it does not feel too harsh on the hair. I used it, there was not too much lather, plus it is a very good cleanser. I have thin oily hair, this shampoo does not completely dry my hair like other shampoos fr oily hair do. I liked the shampoo and would order again

Shampoos, which are natural ones are free from harmful chemicals like parabens and is best for your hair . This product does justice to my hair and triphala being the main ingredient helps to keep my hair strong.

Not Alone
As thirst takes over my mind, I hear a noise that doesn't fit with the rustlings of the jungle. I pause and the melodic noise continues. Is that... is that a flute? I must be dreaming.
I clasp my knife in one hand and move cautiously toward the sound. It stops and I wait, crouched, for it start again. When it does start, the music comes from behind me. Confused by the trees and the bird calls and the scamperings, I whirl around, unable to source the haunting melody floating through leaves and greenness that surrounds me.
Rapid footsteps approach the area where I stand and I duck behind a massive fern, peering out cautiously and already feeling like a forest animal myself. A boy no older than myself appears in my sight, walking down a thin weaving trail that I had not noticed in the murky lighting. He is followed by a lady, a burly man and an almost child-sized, wrinkled woman.
"Another has landed," the old woman says. "But he has dropped no supplies."
"Bastard. Idiot. Moron," the man curses into his beard, anger and frustration easily readable on his features.
"Now, Bernard, you have no proof he is any of those things. We know only of the terrible things he has done to us, not of his intelligence level or heritage. Say not of what you know not." The little woman scolded the lumberjack and it was like watching a chipmunk scold a bear. I almost laughed. Almost.
"Of course. Sorry Mother."
"Now where is the child?"
"Child, Mother?" The lady asks, her voice lilting and pleasant.
"The child who landed. A girl of about Milo's age, if I'm not mistaken." The woman rubs her knobbly hands together and cackles a little as the boy, Milo, perks up.
"You know what I wish Mother? I wish you could use your powers to get us out of here," Bernard says.
"Powers? Only the power of observation. I saw her fall to us. And as I have previously said, we are not all here. We cannot leave until all have joined us."
"Is she the one Mother? Is she the last?" The lady's voice is soft, hopeful.
"No. Two more. Two more. Two more and then we can begin our journey.
I fidget behind my leaf, the pain in my stomach getting worse as my thirst claws at it with icy fingers. My eyes watch Milo as he runs a hand through his hair, toffee coloured, says my tired, thirsty and now hungry brain. His questing eyes are getting closer and closer to finding my hiding spot.
"Found her." His voice is soft as his eyes find mine. He points me out to the others and I see no point in lurking any longer. I stand and remove myself from behind the fern.
"Come child." The old woman says. "There are others who would wish to meet you."

A god beckons in Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse launch trailer
Atlus has released the launch trailer for Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse. The video introduces players to Nanashi, the new, recently resurrected protagonist. Now beholden to the god Dagda, the player must choose whether to do his bidding or attempt to make their own way.

The first thing that is important to understand about gay parenting is that no one is supposed to be discriminated because of the fact they have different sexual orientation. What is more, people have the right to be parents no matter whether they are a straight couple, a gay couple or a transgender couple.
Yet, there are lots of aspects which one needs to take into consideration regarding the issue of gay parenting. Obviously, the issue is considered to be quite controversial. The thing is that opponents of gay parenting state that a child is supposed to be raised in a traditional family. To be more specific, it means that the child is supposed to have a mother and a father.
What is important to keep in mind is that the child needs to feel loved. It does not matter whether this child is going to have a mother and a father, two mothers or two fathers. What matters is that parents do their best in order to raise a good person. If you are willing to read more regarding the issue of gay parenting, do not hesitate to proceed to … Gay parenting

Ridge Santa Cruz Chardonnay 2008
Chardonnay from Santa Cruz Mountains, California
Winemaker's Notes
Pale, translucent golden hue. Fresh-sliced pear, green apple; orange blossom, apricot, wet stone/mineral. Lively acid balances rich tropical fruit in a long finish.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Fresh and snappy, with ripe, firm, vibrant, full-bodied citrus, green apple, spice and honeysuckle flavors that turn delicate and elegant. 2,000 cases made."
The Wine Advocate - "The 2008 Chardonnay from Ridge exhibits subtle oak as well as plenty of fresh white currants, pear, and nectarine in a restrained, yet full-bodied, authoritative style. Bottled unfiltered, the wine has good acidity, a hint of minerality, and a crisp finish. It is a big wine, but very well-balanced, and the overall impression is one of restraint and equilibrium. Drink it over the next 2-5 years. "
International Wine Cellar - "Light bright yellow. Lively aromas of lemon, lime zest and green apple, with complicating notes of oak spice and sweet butter. Fleshy but taut, with bright citrus flavors that give way to deeper apple and pear in the mid-palate. The finish repeats the spice and orange notes and lingers with very good, nervy persistence. This is complex enough to drink now but is balanced to age."

Ridge Winery
Ridge's history begins in 1885, when Osea Perrone, a doctor and prominent member of San Francisco's Italian community, bought 180 acres near the top of Monte Bello Ridge in the Santa Cruz Mountains. He planted vineyards and constructed a winery of redwood and native limestone in time to produce the first vintage of Monte Bello in 1892. The historic building now serves as the Ridge production facility.
Though Ridge began as a Cabernet winery, by the mid-60s it had produced several Zinfandels including the Geyserville. In 1972, Lytton Springs joined the line-up and the two came to represent an important part of Ridge production. Known primarily for its red wines, Ridge has also made limited amounts of Chardonnay since 1962.
The Ridge approach is straightforward: find the most intense and flavorful grapes, guide the natural process, draw all the fruit's richness into the wine. Decisions on when to pick, when to press, when to rack, what varietals and what parcels to include and when to bottle, are based on taste. To retain the nuances that increase complexity, Ridge winemakers handle the grapes and wine as gently as possible. There are no recipes, only attention and sensitivity. View all Ridge Wines
About Santa Cruz MountainsView a map of Santa Cruz Mountains wineries
The Santa Cruz Mountain appellation encompasses the land between Half Moon Bay in the north and Mount Madonna (just near Monterey) in the south. Producing wine since the early 1800's, some of these wineries have been around for quite some time, mingling their vineyard lands with the sprawling redwood forests.
Notable FactsEven though the climate can be challenging, and only 1500 acres are under vine, over 50 wineries still operate successfully – and produce successful wine. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay do well in this region, along with a few plots of Cabernet Sauvignon. Hills, valleys and forests generate multiple micro-climates, creating a diverse flavor among the wines.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Voters are fed up with the current election system–the limited choices, the role of money, and the results it often produces. All of the candidates for this office will promise election reform. But ask yourself a simple question:
Are candidates from parties which depend on big campaign donations and have benefited from our current election system likely to produce real reform, or just superficial changes?
As the candidate of the Pacific Green Party, I will address the systemic problems of our elections and promote reforms to give voters more choices, reduce the role of money, and create fair conditions for all candidates. I support:
- Ranked choice voting to increase voter choice and reduce the role of money
- Constitutional amendment to permit campaign finance limits
- Public funding for candidates who accept limits on campaign spending
- Stronger fusion voting for cross-party nominations
- Updated voting technology to increase security and reduce costs
As Secretary of State I will also support:
- Promoting socially conscious businesses
- Acting on state agency performance audits
- Ensuring government transparency and the public's right to know
- Protecting our public lands from private exploitation
(Click here for more information on my positions. For information on the campaign to bring ranked choice voting to Benton County, click here.)
I'm not a professional politician running for office to advance my career. I am a former political scientist concerned about how two-party dominance, political gridlock, and big campaign donations have prevented us from addressing major problems such as widespread economic insecurity, climate change, and skewed budget priorities. The solution is to give voters a stronger and clearer voice by reforming how we conduct elections.
Your vote for me will tell state elected officials to get serious about cleaning up our election system.
I pledge to run my campaign without relying on special-interest PACs and big campaign donors. To succeed I need your help. Only by working together we can make Oregon a model of voter empowerment. Thank you for your consideration!

New Shay, New Couple, And A Creapy School Filled With Zombies
Book by: TheUnkownWriter
Status: Finished
Genre: Young Adult
Chapter1 (v.1) - New Shay, New Couple, And A Creepy School Filled With Zombies
Shay Fields was shy and never understood why, because when she was in her old town she wasn't. She had to move because her dad's job got moved to Texas. But once she moved she turned shy and was scared when she walked in her first period class. She almost felt sick. She hands her slip to her teacher while looking at the floor while her legs shook with nervousness.
"Go sit down by Roy Ryder." The teacher says pointing to a boy who's face was looking down at his book but his eyes were glaring at Shay. Shay's brown hair flung side to side while she walked toward him and her blue eyes looked at the dirty carpet. She slipped her skinny body onto a chair and dropped her bag. Roy passed her a book slowly then moved his hand and laid it on his book.
"Mr. Ryder, please read chapter one." The teacher tells Roy. "Sir.." Roy said silently. "Read." The teacher barks. "Yes, yes sir." Roy says silently and reads aloud. His voice was shaky and he kept patting his leg. Weird habit?
Once he finished he wiped his forehead and took a deep breath. "Now, talk with your partners about what happened in this chapter." What did we read about? I wasn't paying attention. Shay thought.
"I-" Shay said silently. "What was that Shay?" The teacher says. "N-nothing sir." Shay says. "Good…"
Shay looks at the teachers desk he had a name plate: Mr. Dean.
Shay turns slowly toward Roy and Roy looks at her with scared eyes. "H-hello" He says silently tapping on his leg. "Hi." Shay says silently. "D-do you know what happened? I-in this chapter?" Roy says looking at Shay slightly. "S-sorry, but I wasn't paying attention." Shay says looking back at the book and reading the chapter quickly. "It was about Earth." Roy says looking at Shy. "Earth, the planet we live on. Why are we learning about that?" Shy says rolling her eyes. "We have to learn." Roy says looking at Shay again. He was looking her over. He smiled slightly when she saw him eyeing her.
"Sorry, I'm very shy. My name is Roy Ryder. And your name is?" Roy says. "Shay Fields." Shay says putting her hand out, Roy takes it and shakes it nodding. "Is Mr. Dean always that mean?" Shay asks. Roy let's go of her hand late and blushes. "Yea, some people say that he used to be in the army." Roy says silently. Mr. Dean passes them and nods.
"Want to sit with me at lunch?" Roy asks. "Uh, sure." Shay nods with a smile. Shay looked at Roy while he was reading. His hair was in a surfers cut, and his eyes were a deep blue; Shay thought that they where the most beautiful things ever. His body was skinny but slightly muscular.
The bell rang five minutes later and Roy looks at Shay; "Can I see your Schedule?" He asks. Shay hands it over, there fingers brush slightly and they look at each other and smile. "You have the same classes as me. I can walk you." Roy says. Shay nods and they walk over to there next class. Shay's and Roy's hand brush each others and Roy looks at Shay and they blush. "Sorry." They say at the same time. They laugh silently and walk into the classroom. I think he likes me. Shay thinks.

MMM. Love is in the air. I LOVE it. You're good at what you're doing. The teacher is a biatch, tho.
BTW, there is a lil' typo: "What to sit with me at lunch?", I think it's supposed to be "want". Keep up the good work!

Codes, Ciphers and Secret Writing (Test Your Code Breaking Skills) by Martin Gardner
Publisher: Dover Publications | Number Of Pages: 96 | Publication Date: 1984-10-01 | Sales Rank: 55496 | ISBN: 0486247619 | PDF | 2 Mb
Experiment with cryptography — the science of secret writing. Cipher and decipher codes: transposition and polyalphabetical ciphers, famous codes, typewriter and telephone codes, codes that use playing cards, knots, and swizzle sticks...even invisible writing and sending messages through outer space. Hours of intrigue and challenge. 45 diagrams.
Non-Mathematical Intro to Ciphers of Historical Interest
This is a good, well-written book requiring essentially no mathematical background. It's appropriate for teens and older folks interested ciphers. As another writer has pointed out, it's not current (this is a Dover reprint of a 1972 Simon & Schuster work), and the very few places where it says a code is still in use, it's likely not. I don't view this as a problem.
Ciphers are categorized and historical development is given. Invisible inks and the like are discussed, as are microdots, and SETI, though not by that name. Modern ciphers get no mention whatsoever--thus the non-mathematical nature. The approach doesn't consider computers to any real extent. Also, certain historical items that could have been covered, like the Enigma, aren't mentioned.
There are three weaknesses, IMHO, that keep it below 5 stars.
(1) Most of the ciphers presented have a set of possible setups, which can effectively be considered keys. E.g., the Caesar Cipher, using the Roman alphabet, has 25 different possible versions, which can be considered 25 different keys. Gardner makes no attempt to explain the relative complexities of breaking the various ciphers.
(2) The age.
(3) There is no index, but the table of contents is detailed.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Local big wig in small town defames me to police which lead to false arrest, kidnapping, assault, battery, false imprisonment, excessive bail (to ensure I stay overnight), inadequate med. care. Refusal to treat medial conditions, intentional infliction of emotional distress, cruel and unusual punishment, 1st Amendment, 4th Amendment, 5th Amendment, 6th Amendment, and 8th Amendment violations. Released on reduced bail. Case dropped by DA. Dispo. = "NINF". Additionally, I also want to pursue actions against my accuser. The accuser has cash. Fairly bucks up. If you don't mind working for your earnings, rather than being "spoon fed" like most alleged lawyers I have heard from on this site, than by all means contact me. I will be more than happy to fill in the blanks omitted herein.
First, we can't respond to an inquiry for hire on this site - you have to contact specific attorneys. Second, most attorneys are unlikely to respond positively to this approach, which suggests that most of our colleagues are less than useful. Finally, while you may well have a case, giving a laundry list like this again suggests an approach that may be more wishful thinking than calculated, precise application of the law to facts crafted to get you actual positive results.
***Please be sure to mark if you find the answer "helpful" or a "best" answer. Thank you! I hope this helps. ******Ask a similar question
I must apologyze to all the subscrbrs. I had the wrong idea about this site. I was under the mistaken belief it was to find an attorney to represent me instead of simply answering a legall question. My apologies again.
Don't worry about it. Any number of people think that, we just have to explain. You can find lawyers on here who do both civil rights and torts, you just have to look them up and contact them directly.
I can guarantee no lawyer will respond to you.
Your post raises all the red flags that indicate a case and client a lawyer should steer clear of.
Recommend you meet with a local attorney to discuss the actual facts, not the unsubstantiated accusations, and see if you even have a case.
FWIW, solicitations like yours violate the terms of use of this site and the community guidelines.
NOT LEGAL ADVICE. FOR EDUCATION AND INFORMATION ONLY. DO NOT RELY ON ANY ADVICE YOU RECEIVE FROM ME OR ANY OTHER ATTORNEY IN THIS FORUM. Legal advice comes after a complete review of the facts and relevant documents and an expressed (written) agreement of representation that forms attorney-client confidentiality. Neither of these two events can occur in this forum. Mr. Rafter is licensed to practice in the Commonwealth of Virginia and the US Federal Courts in Virginia. His answers to any Avvo question are rooted in general legal principles--NOT your specific state laws. There is no implied or actual attorney-client relationship arising from this education exchange. You should speak with an attorney licensed in your state, to whom you have provided all the facts before you take steps that may impact your legal rights. Mr. Rafter is under no obligation to answer subsequent emails or phone calls related to this or any other matter.Ask a similar question
First of all, unfortunately this forum doesn't really function as a jobs bulletin board, so you may not get much in the way of a response to your post. You will have to take the initiative and contact attorneys to find one to represent you. As the other responses suggest, your post suggests a lot of attitude on your part that may not be the best approach, as far as finding a lawyer to represent you. You might want to carefully consider how you present yourself and your case when consulting with attorneys. In any case, use the Find a Lawyer tab on Avvo to begin your search for attorneys to talk to. Best of luck to you...
THESE COMMENTS MUST NOT BE CONSIDERED LEGAL ADVICE. Comments made on websites such as Avvo.com are provided for information purposes only, and you should not base a decision to act or refrain from acting based upon this answer. The only way to determine how the law may apply to your particular situation is to consult with an attorney licensed in your jurisdiction. Answering this question does not create an attorney-client relationship or otherwise require further consultation. That relationship is established by the execution of a written agreement for legal services. Also, see Avvo's terms and conditions of use, specifically item 9, incorporated by this reference.Ask a similar question

I just turned 30. I have a BS in digital arts but I didn't apply myself in school and didn't really come out of it with any skills other than the basics (simple Maya stuff, PS, bit of video editing). I worked in handheld gaming as an artist (3DSMax) for several years after school, but creating 64x64 sprites didn't do anything for my skillset and all that work looks terrible now, portfolio-wise. I was unhappy with that job and questioned my career choices, so I left and couldn't/didn't bother to find another job in the field. That was a couple of years ago. Since then I've picked up some Blender and played with game design middleware but haven't created anything significant. I am considering a Masters degree as a way to restart my career but I can't help thinking it's an inefficient use of money and I could spend way less simply buying exorbitant software licenses and learning on my own, or buying the software + online courses. I don't care about the degree or whatever "having a Masters" would do to my resume, I just want the opportunity to focus on improving my work to the point where I can make it a career again, just to be able to show a reel that makes me look hire-able.
TL;DR: I'm looking for advice from people who are successful in CG or Games, from your perspective is grad school a logical investment or is there a better approach for someone with a solid digital media background but no demo reel to get access to the tools and education it takes to get hired as a digital artist?

Up in Flames
Jeremi pressed her cheek against the rough wood, her fingers stroking the many knots and splinters, wandering down and finally coming to rest over the door's handle. She crooned quietly to the lock whispering for it to open. There was no click. Puzzled, Jeremi turned the door's handle and pushed. The door swung inward.
"It was already open -- just like the front door," she said, confused. She stepped forward into the room; Arianwen followed close behind.
The room felt very small, not because there wasn't much space, but because all the space available seemed to be taken up by all manner of clutter. Clothes lay unwashed in crumpled heaps upon the floor and the bedclothes seemed to be everywhere except on the bed. There was a bookshelf hugging one wall, but it was so overstuffed that all of the excess books randomly populated every flat surface. Under the window there was a small snowdrift of loose sheets of paper and scattered in various locations about the room were other sundry items such as mandolins and telescopes.
"Not so tidy, was he?" remarked Jeremi, but Arianwen made no response. Instead, she frowned and stooped down to examine a pile of rags on the ground.
"This isn't like Vollomeer," said Arianwen quietly. "He probably left in a hurry, but this isn't an untidy man's room -- it's a room that's been searched. Someone's been here before us"
Jeremi felt a little jolt in the pit of her stomach. "Who, though?"
"I don't know. But I have a feeling I know what they were looking for."
Jeremi had a feeling she knew as well, but she didn't say anything. Something had just caught her eye; a dark splotch on the wall. Jeremi crossed the room to get a closer look.
"K M? What does that stands for, you think?"
"What?" came Arianwen's voice from behind her.
"Look here -- it's burned into the wall."
Arianwen appeared at Jeremi's shoulder. Jeremi was short enough that her friend could still see the letters over the top of her head.
"I don't know. . ." said Arianwen pensively. She ran her fingers over the charred marks. "But it's still warm."
"Ari, I think we should get out of here," said Jeremi. "I have a bad feeling about this." She was getting a prickly sensation at the base of her neck. That was never a good sign.
"I think you're right," said Arianwen, surfacing from her reverie. She turned to Jeremi, but Jeremi had dashed to the window, catching sight of something moving in the snow below.
It was a black-clad figure, probably feminine, fringed with a dark, billowing cloak and matching mane of hair. She turned a wan face up toward Jeremi's window, as if intuitively sensing her presence, then stretched an hook-fingered hand out toward the house.
Jeremi dropped to the ground reflexively, and it was well that she did; the window above her blew in, showering her with a scintillating blizzard of glass. A gout of flame hissed through the window, lighting nearly everything in the room afire simultaneously. Jeremi rolled away from a pile of thick, leather-bound tomes just as they erupted into flame. Jeremi winced as the glass shards bit into her arms and legs.
The heat was unbelievable. Jeremi could barely see anything for smoke and fire and she could hear nothing but the roaring inferno that blazed around her. She tried to call out to Arianwen, but ended up inhaling a lungful of smoke instead, causing her to splutter uselessly.
And suddenly Arianwen was there, and Jeremi felt clean air rush down her throat that was no doubt Arianwen's doing.
"We need to get out the window," hollered Arianwen over the crackling of flames and groaning of weakening ceiling beams.
"The way's blocked!" Jeremi shouted, motioning to the wall of fire that was creeping closer by the moment.
Arianwen closed her eyes and Jeremi found herself momentarily robbed of breath as all the air was forced from the area. A moment later it returned, but the flames had been smothered.
"Go!" screamed Arianwen, for even now the flames were rekindling.
Jeremi bolted to the window and without a moment's hesitation leaped through it. It was a gut-wrenching drop, perhaps only eight feet or so with the bottom two feet cushioned with fluffy mounds of snow, but it was quite far enough for Jeremi's tiny frame. She landed with a whump as the freezing snow swallowed her. Jeremi felt her leg twist painfully and knew she had broken it. She lay, rattled and half-conscious, gazing hazily up at the slice of sharp, blue sky above.
She didn't know how long it was before Arianwen found her and dragged her out of the snow bank, but when she did, the majority of Vollomeer's house had collapsed into a mound of scorched wood and brilliantly orange flames that warmed Jeremi's skin. Before she passed out, Jeremi looked around for the woman who had set the house ablaze, but she was nowhere to be seen.

On July 1, 2001, a nationwide law in Portugal took effect that decriminalized all drugs, including cocaine and heroin. Under the new legal framework, all drugs were "decriminalized," not "legalized." Thus, drug possession for personal use and drug usage itself are still legally prohibited, but violations of those prohibitions are deemed to be exclusively administrative violations and are removed completely from the criminal realm. Drug trafficking continues to be prosecuted as a criminal offense. While other states in the European Union have developed various forms of de facto decriminalization -- whereby substances perceived to be less serious (such as cannabis) rarely lead to criminal prosecution -- Portugal remains the only EU member state with a law explicitly declaring drugs to be "decriminalized." Because more than seven years have now elapsed since enactment of Portugal's decriminalization system, there are ample data enabling its effects to be assessed. Notably, decriminalization has become increasingly popular in Portugal since 2001. Except for some far-right politicians, very few domestic political factions are agitating for a repeal of the 2001 law. And while there is a widespread perception that bureaucratic changes need to be made to Portugal's decriminalization framework to make it more efficient and effective, there is no real debate about whether drugs should once again be criminalized. More significantly, none of the nightmare scenarios touted by preenactment decriminalization opponents -- from rampant increases in drug usage among the young to the transformation of Lisbon into a haven for "drug tourists" -- has occurred. The political consensus in favor of decriminalization is unsurprising in light of the relevant empirical data. Those data indicate that decriminalization has had no adverse effect on drug usage rates in Portugal, which, in numerous categories, are now among the lowest in the EU, particularly when compared with states with stringent criminalization regimes. Although postdecriminalization usage rates have remained roughly the same or even decreased slightly when compared with other EU states, drug-related pathologies -- such as sexually transmitted diseases and deaths due to drug usage -- have decreased dramatically. Drug policy experts attribute those positive trends to the enhanced ability of the Portuguese government to offer treatment programs to its citizens -- enhancements made possible, for numerous reasons, by decriminalization. This report will begin with an examination of the Portuguese decriminalization framework as set forth in law and in terms of how it functions in practice. Also examined is the political climate in Portugal both pre- and postdecriminalization with regard to drug policy, and the impetus that led that nation to adopt decriminalization. The report then assesses Portuguese drug policy in the context of the EU's approach to drugs. The varying legal frameworks, as well as the overall trend toward liberalization, are examined to enable a meaningful comparative assessment between Portuguese data and data from other EU states. The report also sets forth the data concerning drug-related trends in Portugal both pre- and postdecriminalization. The effects of decriminalization in Portugal are examined both in absolute terms and in comparisons with other states that continue to criminalize drugs, particularly within the EU. The data show that, judged by virtually every metric, the Portuguese decriminalization framework has been a resounding success. Within this success lie self-evident lessons that should guide drug policy debates around the world.

A HAPLESS lorry driver has become the laughing stock of a quiet rural village
after wedging his truck between two houses.
The unnamed culprit's humiliating error of judgement in sleepy Bruton,
Somerset, forced him to spend the night in his cab.
The trucker was due to make a soft drinks delivery at a nearby convenience
store when he unwisely opted to take a short cut down a narrow lane.
Guided by his equally incompetent Sat Nav, his 13-ton HGV was brought to a
scraping, brick-breaking halt by two properties located too close together
for the vehicle to pass through.
Unable to reverse back up the lane or move any further forward, the trapped
driver had to bed down overnight while bosses plotted his escape.
Locals who encountered the stuck truck stopped in bewilderment as the
red-faced hauler sat helpless in the passenger seat.
Still, he couldn't have found a nicer spot to call home for a few hours…

Changing the Rules with Charter Cities
By Paul Romer | TED | August 6, 2009
How can a struggling country break out of poverty if it's trapped in a system of bad rules? In this TED talk, economist Paul Romer unveils the bold idea of "charter cities," city-scale administrative zones governed by a coalition of nations.

Jadyn Calvins: Mom?Mature
"OMG! Really, are you serious?" I was talking on the phone with my friend. So far we were talking for like about an hour, not so long. But suddenly the line got cut. "Hello? Reima? Are you there? Hmm...? That was weird." I put the phone down and walk over to the kitchen. "Hi, mom. Watcha' makin'?" "Food. Joking, well I am but I am making Kraft Dinner!!" "Don't forget the milk and butter." "I'll try not to this time."
I walk out of the kitchen to go back into the when the door burst right open. There was a man. He walked right up to me. He smelled like rotting dead things. He opened his mouth and tried to bite me. He got me to the ground. "MOM!! HELP!!!" She came running. She pushed the man off me. "What the hell?! Get out of our house!" He didn't listen. Instead he came running again but towards my mom. She got tackled down. The man bit her. "AHH! What the-?" I pushed the man off of her this time and I grabbed something, I didn't know what I grabbed but it seemed to hurt the guy. After stabbing a man like a billion times I went to check on my mom. "Mom? Are you ok?" "No....I can feel something. Something inside me....wanting to come out......I feel hungry...re-really hun-hungry..." She was dead. "Mom...?" I cried and cried.

A book is published on Monday that all ministers and officials should read before doing anything else. The Blunders of our Governments, by two eminent professors, Anthony King and Ivor Crewe, gives a forensic account of how and why so many ministerial projects have crashed and burned since 1979, at huge expense – although rarely to those involved. As ministers never believe they're going to fail (that's the first mistake), here's how things in the pipeline may go wrong, and possibly why they already have. One, to the architects of universal credit: remember that desirability of an outcome doesn't guarantee its achievability. Encourage, challenge and be prepared to adapt. Consult. Listen closely to those implementing pilot schemes. Introduce very slowly. Two, NHS reform. Caution! Activist ministers make bad policy and scare their officials into silence. Beware of prejudice: private might easily be worse than public, and the market can be a force for harm at least as often as a force for good. Do not oversell, do not spin.Three, HS2. It is possible that if everyone agrees, you are all wrong. Infrastructure needs continuity but you must (really) work up all the options. It is so much easier to decide to do something than it is to do it. Just because some critics are nimbys doesn't mean they're necessarily wrong. Recall the dangers of asymmetry of expertise. Be precise. Be particular. Above all, consider how history will judge you and your ambition. Less is so often more.
Ministers, read this book: it is possible that if everyone agrees, you're all wrong

Because corruption of minors and breach of fiduciary duties only matter if the teacher is a man...
...female teacher released on $2,000 bond for alleged sex with a 14 year old.
//Officials at a Fitchburg charter school say they are "shocked and concerned" over allegations that a former health and sex education teacher had sex with a 14-year-old male student.
The announcement from the North Central Charter Essential School came a day after Rachelle Gendron, 27, of Fitchburg pleaded not guilty in Worcester Superior Court to charges of rape and enticement of a child.
Gendron was released on $2,000 bail.//
//Neighbor Mark Wheeler said the allegation "really is surprising."
But he also questioned whether women accused in such crimes are treated the same as men.
"If this were a male they would never get out on $2,000 bond," Wheeler said.//

Anyone unpersuaded by the latterday imperialism of Niall Ferguson et al will relish this eye-opening panorama of a institution "maintained through bloodshed, violence, brutality, conquest and war".
From the 30,000 killed in the Great Irish Rebellion of 1798 to the 50 unarmed Aborigines shot in 1804, page after page is drenched in blood.
Cherished beliefs about liberal Britain are undermined: after slavery was abolished, the "seizure of Africans for the armed forces continued".

- After his parents both passed away in a tragic accident, when he was 15, Jack learned to work hard. He entered the army, fought in WWII, married and lived very modestly, often struggling to make ends meet.
- Late in life, Jack, then in his mid-80's, received a call from his hometown bank. They were updating their system and wanted to know if Jack wanted to move his money into a different bank account.
- Befuddled, Jack said, "I didn't know I had an account with you." The banker replied, "Oh yes, Jack, you do; and, it's got $3 million in it." However, Jack didn't even know that he had it.

As he peered over all of the boxes, cables and wires in that breaker room, the guide said, "Sir, this is the most unused power in the world." The tourist, a Christian, thought for a moment and said, "No sir, the most unused power in the world is the Holy Spirit."

Chris Hadfield's memoir An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth will be adapted for television, Deadline.com reports. ABC won the deal - which includes a commitment to produce a pilot - in what Deadline is calling "a very competitive situation."
The show will be a multi-camera sitcom about an astronaut who, after completing his final mission in space, must re-adapt to life on Earth. Justin Halpern and Patrick Schumacker are behind the show, it is part of a larger deal they have with Warner Bros TV.
It is not the first book-based project for Halpern and Schumacker. They also produced the book-turned-television-shows S#*! My Dad Says and Surviving Jack.
Hadfield will be a consulting producer on the pilot. Last fall, The Nature of Things looked at how Hadfield reignited society's love of space. Watch it below:

Love Doesn't Ask Why
Don't ask me if this feeling's right or wrong.
It doesn't have to make much sense;
it just has to be this strong.
'Cause when you're in my arms I understand.
We don't try to have a voice.
When our hearts make the choices.
There's no plan.
It's in our hands.
Love doesn't ask why.
It speaks from the heart
and never explains.
Don't you know that
love doesn't think twice?
It can come all at once
or whisper from a distance.
Celine Dion – Love Doesn't Ask Why
Heero's brow furrowed. "Why what?" he asked softly. Even as he spoke, his fingers continued to card through Duo's loose hair, simultaneously calming him and working out the tangles with which their recent bout of lovemaking had gifted him.
Duo sniffled against his pillow of Heero's chest. His latest crying jag had left him spent. His warm tears had ceased to fall a few minutes ago, but Duo was by no means over this most recent attack of depression. It didn't always happen, but often enough since the first time they'd made love, Duo would start crying for no reason afterwards and was unable to stop.
The first time it had happened, Heero had been at a loss. At first, he'd been worried he'd hurt Duo somehow, though they'd still been in the early stages of their relationship then and technically hadn't even gotten to third base, so he was almost positive that wasn't it. The only thing he'd been able to think of was to treat the effect, even if he couldn't figure out the cause, and that had led to him holding Duo while he cried and finger-combing the tangles out of his hair.
It seemed to help Duo, and so it had become their ritual of sorts. Duo had never been able to explain – or more likely was unwilling to explain, even to himself – what it was that caused him to cry at those times. Heero never pressured him, however, instinctively knowing that this was something that had to come in its own time.
Even if they had been together for almost two years now.
"Why…why do you put up with me when I'm so screwed up?" Duo clarified once he'd stopped sniffling. The waiting did little good; more tears were brimming in his eyes even as he posed the question.
Heero smiled softly and leaned to kiss those drops of sadness away. "Because I love you," he said simply. He didn't have to think twice about his answer, despite the fact that Duo had never asked him that before. At least not specifically. The other boy made jokes about it, and the first time it had happened, he'd apologized and Heero had taken the initiative to reassure him that it was okay…
But Duo had asked for that reassurance before. Heero allowed a little ray of hope to settle in his heart that maybe Duo was getting better. If, in fact, Duo had needed to get better in the first place.
Duo smiled back at him at his answer, but then his lips curved back and his eyes followed their path. "Heero?" he said after a moment, voice tight with the tension that Heero recognized from when he was gearing himself up to say something.
"Yes, love?" Heero asked. He normally didn't like to overuse endearments, but it was another small way to reassure Duo, and he didn't mind.
Duo was his love, after all.
"I know why, now," Duo said haltingly, lips tugging up ever-so-imperceptibly in a sheepish smile.
"Oh?" Heero asked, tone slightly interested, but not overly eager. Inside, he was almost straining against his brain to find out what was going on with his lover. It didn't bother him to comfort Duo – on the contrary, those moments of depression-laced afterglow were some of the few times when he could be the one to reassure Duo, instead of the other way around – but it did bother him that Duo might have a serious problem that he might not know how to help fix.
Duo proved he was still as infuriating as ever by asking another question, instead of answering Heero's own. "You…loved me, even back then, didn't you?" he murmured to Heero's left nipple.
Heero nodded hesitantly once he saw that Duo was watching him. Yes, hadn't Duo known? If he hadn't loved Duo, he never would have let him so close…in so many ways.
"I…did, too," Duo admitted uneasily, eyes flicking away once more. "But I only realized when you…" He took a deep breath and said, all at once, "When you held me in your arms as I came and looked at me like I was the best thing that had ever happened to you and you didn't want to ever let me go."
Heero flushed slightly. While it had been a personal pet project of his to try to be more open with his emotions, he'd never realized that he revealed so much when they were…intimate.
"And I…I couldn't deal with that," Duo finished quietly. "It was…too much. I couldn't handle it all." He let out a shuddering breath. "I know, intellectually, that just because you love me doesn't mean you'll die, but…" He shook his head.
"The heart is a strange creature," Heero told him after reflecting on his lover's words for a moment. Definitely; he himself still had problems with his emotions. He felt them, but half the time didn't understand why he felt them. Despite that, he accepted them all the same. They felt too right not to. "It doesn't need a rhyme or reason why, it just…feels." It had taken him these past two years – and would take many more – for him to come to even a tentative understanding of why he loved Duo. Though it had never mattered why; it was just was.
Duo nodded shakily, looking up into Heero's eyes, more tears pricking his own at those heartfelt words. "I love you," he said passionately. "I…I'm sorry I had – have – such a problem with expressing it."
It was only as Duo said those words that Heero realized Duo had never actually said them before. It was always 'Me, too,' 'Ditto, babe,' or an off-the-cuff, 'Love ya!' while he was on his way out the door. Before and after missions there were no words, just touches, to reassure each other that they were still alive.
Duo had never said, 'I love you,' before. And the fact that he did it now, knowing fully to the last tear exactly what that meant to each of them…
Heero never knew what that phrase about having your breath taken away meant before. But he did now.
"It doesn't matter," Heero said at last, not wanting to keep Duo waiting too long for an answer. His eyes locked with Duo's own as he said, "You speak from the heart even without words."
Duo's smile was like the sun rising on a new day. A hope for the future, and a promise that though the road might be rocky, their love would be a balm to any pain.
