I want my soil tested, please.
Soil Testing Offered by UT Extension
Ready your garden for spring by learning what is in your soil. The University of Tennessee Extension offers an affordable basic test so gardeners can learn the proper amount of lime and fertilizer needed for lawns and gardens. Here's how to get your soil tested:
- Get a soil sample box from your county's UT Extension agent, or use a sandwich bag with a zip seal.
- Fill the box or bag with at least one cup of soil collected from several areas of the yard or garden. Dig down six inches for your sample.
- Enclose a check for $7 made out to the University of Tennessee, and send the package or deliver it to the Soil, Plant and Pest Center, 5201 Marchant Drive, Nashville, Tennessee, 37211. Your soil will go through a nine-step process in the lab and will be checked for potassium, phosphorus and other elements.
Your report should arrive in a week or so by email or mail. It will show the phosphorus and potassium levels – you want both to be high. The report will make recommendations for amending the soil to give you a proper balance for a productive crop.
To get your soil tested, visit the UT Extension Soil Testing website.

2 questions about a soil sample.. How do I get a sample # it says to put a number on the box but… How do I get the number.. Also For a garden/ grass which service do you prefer the 7$ or 15$
I would like to submit a soil sample for testing. Is the fee the same as last year for the basic test? Thank you very much. Jere
Hi. I will be moving in about a year. Since the acreage I have is under 5 acres, I was told I had to have a soil scientist to test the soil for septic and so forth. Is the sample boxes the same thing as this?

Night Embassy ... (four)Mature
Happy birthday, Emily had said.
Before I met Emily, I hadn't celebrated my birthday in a few years. She had known me two weeks, and there she was in my office with a silly party hat on, carrying a chocolate cake with one candle in it. Little did she know I was lactose intolerant.
Emily designed her own cards. One valentine's, she sent me one that said - the beauty of art is that it is one moment that lasts forever, the beauty of life however, is that it is a collection of moments that don't. Share your moments with me?
Emily was young and fresh out of Art College. She was meant to say pretentious things.
My first date with Emily was a weekend trip to New York. I was out to impress. We ate in a Brazilian restaurant, the name of which I still can't pronounce, even to this day. They served us large slabs of meat on wicked looking swords and immersed us in all the exotic atmosphere the amazon had to offer. We watched Phantom of the Opera from seats in a fully reserved box including complimentary champagne and to seal the deal, I offered to hire out a separate room for Emily at the Millennium Broadway when we returned from our night out. I don't deny that my bank card was relieved, as merrily, she declined.
Later that night, holding her hair back as she looked into her slightly tarnished reflection in the toilet bowl, I believed thoroughly that I had found the girl of my dreams. No other girl could have looked as graceful and elegant after puking her guts up. I also found out that Emily was a t-total vegetarian.
At 21 years of age, you have plenty of time to adjust your goals and lifestyle. Your philosophy, sadly, is likely to change itself. If the education system didn't break you, it's more than likely that the "real world" will. At 21 I had it all figured out.
When I was 21 I was sure set to wind up like my Dad. I worked hard, all day and over time, packing ice bags full of fish. The bags weighed a good 100lbs each. We threw the huge, awkward bags into a container, piling them high as walls of frozen water and cold, dead fish. Some containers would be shipped to Jasper, then across the country to the east, other, smaller containers would be shipped across the border to Seattle, each of the fish smuggling significant amounts of class A drugs.
In the evenings, my colleagues and I would practice quality control on our goods. For the record, we didn't eat much fish.
I moved to Vancouver to get away from my Dad. I'd picked up the shipping job with relative ease and I rented a cheap bedsit in Coquitlam.
The fish job is where I met Mike.
Emily said that something fleeting like a moment shared by lovers is infinitely more immortal than a painting of the same moment.
I didn't really get that.
Emily had been 16 when she had painted that picture.
I was glad she wasn't immortally 16.
The way I saw it, death was inevitable. I even agreed with Emily, the fact our lives were a collection of moments unique to us that couldn't be collected and stored to gather dust was beautiful. It didn't mean I wanted to die. In fact, I was very much against the whole idea. I thought the entire system could do with rethinking.
At 21 years of age, you've got a lot going for you. By the time your 34, if you haven't set yourself up for life, you'd really best get a move on.
Nearly 14 years older than Emily, my actions weren't simply frowned upon but commented on actively by those that were aware of the relationship. It was my obligation, nay, my due diligence to ensure that as few people as possible knew about "us".
I guessed it was strange to think that I was playing truant in Valleyview Secondry before Emily was even born.
I like to think age is just a number; otherwise it's just this sort of backwards clock that doesn't really tell you anything. If it counted down at least you could plan for the less desirable happenings.
The weekend in New York had been a success, at least for the most part. Emily was 18, her parents weren't overly wild about a 31 year old man taking their daughter away on what, to them, must have seemed like a sexual elopement.
Truth be told, nothing happened. I was almost too scared to touch her, we didn't even kiss. She adorned herself in the most beautiful attire, but what affected me more so was the way her skin glowed and she simply emanated this mental, emotional and physical perfection.
I spent a weekend with Emily Hart in New York City and my philosophy changed. She showed me around the art museums, she showed me little quirks of architecture, she pointed out the simplicity of human art, the complexity of mechanical art, the beauty of natural art. She showed me a plastic bag dancing in the wind. I'd seen the scene in American Beauty, but I'd never taken anything from it before then.
With Emily, I looked at everything with new eyes.
I was reborn, I was an art connoisseur, I was a patron of the theatre, and I was an artist myself. I was Buddha. I was reincarnated, a new man, stripped of all the pain and suffering of youth and born again, a heart open to love and trust and art and the overwhelming beauty of the things I saw every second of the day that no person would ever see again, in exactly the same sequence, at exactly the same time interval as I had. My experience was unique. I was beautiful and I shared my beauty with someone saccharinely sacred.
Emily Hart was the love of my life.
At 18 years of age, you think you have it all figured out.

Page 12Mature
Through the window of her dirt-floored hovel, Éliane watched as life once again returned to the city. She saw churls of every degree, husbandmen, herdsmen, mechanics, household servants, all returning to their work. These were men who would have once sought entry into the Order as serving brethren. As in a layman's life, they may well have suffered inequity next to their knightly brethren. Yet in every outward regard, serving brethren were still members of the Order, cloaked by its inviolability and entitled to its privileges.
Men also joined in the hope that crusade might provide them with heavenly salvation. Not so any longer. Papal aggrandizement in Italy had devalued the divine currency of crusade. Now men sought the safer path to heaven with a short service at home in the quarrels of the Church. Investment and enthusiasm in the Holy Land had all but evaporated, with the public's estimation of the Order evaporating along with them. Philip's untimely accusations only added to the growing disquiet.
The populace was already rife with grief and indignation toward the Order. Éliane knew the feeling all too well. After all, she was here only by virtue of the Order's inglorious activity in recent years. Philip himself may be a snake, but he was a snake perhaps justified in his misgivings. The Order had failed in its duty in the East, losing the Holy Land and failing to reclaim it. And when royal politics compelled the Templers to undertake an expedition in the Byzantine Empire, they seized the opportunity to plunder the shores of Thrace and the Morea and carried the booty home to Cyprus.
As much as Philip or Clement were responsible for the state the Order found itself in, the Templers themselves were as much to blame. Yet in spite of these ignominies, Éliane was carried here by other reasons. Reasons which were less well known, or if known, less fully understood throughout Christendom. The details of the incident, like so many things within the Order, were kept secret. In her mind, the wounds of the schism were still fresh, only seven years old. Her son was a constant reminder.

Originally Posted by fidelio_forte
1. The Last Guardian
It was hard not to go into The Last Guardian as a game with high expectations, considering what had come before. I also had concerns about the soundtrack itself. Considering the incredible legacy of Kow Otani's Shadow of the Colossus score, and with the Miller's Crossing main theme being used for the original announcement trailer... how do you compete with that? Much to my shock and surprise, Takeshi Furukawa does so beautifully, and to the point that I can't even contemplate The Last Guardian without his work. After finishing the game, the game's primary leitmotif always makes my breath catch - which made compiling this track list quite hard, because I was getting a lump in my throat whilst making sure the tracks were correct. Thanks for all the awkward teary typing, Furukawa.
We have the gentle scene setting Overture, followed by the quiet and thoughtful beauty of Forest. Sentinel is a perpetual, organic, and ominous driving beat, and Flashback starts with wonder, and ends in dismay. The building horror of Finale I - Apex, gives way to the heartbreaking hopeful beauty of Finale II - Escape. When I heard Epilogue for the first time outside of TLG's promotion trailers, it took my breath away, and may have lead to some undignified teary sniffing. Epilogue encompasses TLG as a whole for me - it is absolutely breathtaking and utterly awe inspiring, much like Trico himself. An absolutely beautiful soundtrack.
2. World of Final Fantasy
A big surprise for me this year was World of Final Fantasy, in both the game and the soundtrack. Fool on me for assuming that just because it's a spin-off game, that there wouldn't be some phenomenal work from Masashi Hamauzu. Both WoFF itself and the soundtrack are incredibly likeable, charming, and bizarrely addictive. A highlight of the soundtrack is some new arrangements of old Final Fantasy musical classics, which is previously an area where a lot of spin-offs in the franchise have fallen extremely flat for me. WoFF's arrangements are genuinely fantastic, and perfectly capture the spirit of the original pieces whilst still fitting tonally into WoFF. In the case of Prismelody - Terra and Prismelody - Eternal Wind, I think they are now my favorite arrangements of the song. The first time Terra's Theme played, I stopped dead in my tracks in the middle of the desert, and stood there until the song finished. A mournful and powerful rendition of an incredibly iconic theme.
One thing I really have to praise WoFF's soundtrack is the incredible synergy it has as a whole throughout. Hamauzu's soundtracks are usually quite good at feeling cohesive as a whole (one of the reasons I have a love/hate relationship with XIII-2's soundtrack is that it doesn't always mesh that well together), but I think WoFF is one of his strongest soundtracks yet. Every track feels extremely individual, whilst still feeling strongly cohesive as a whole. I also have to applaud the entire soundtrack for never being remotely grating, which would have been so easy to accidentally do considering the tone of the game. With JRPGs, even FF games, I often find myself listening to other music for level grinding, etc, because I get a bit sick of the inevitable repetition. I tried that for WoFF out of habit, but I actually found myself missing the music, which is extremely rare. Battle themes can often become grating for me in particular in the long term, but I never found that to be the slightest issue in WoFF. This is surprising, considering there isn't that many of them. There is the likeable and rousing World of Battle, the more humorous and bouncy Another World of Battle, and the tentative then confident Mega World of Battle for boss battles.
There's the gentle and warm World of Beauty, which nicely encompasses the tone of the entire game. It feels like WoFF's equivalent of the FF prelude theme, or KH's instrumental versions of its theme songs. World of Nine Wood Hills is a track you'll not-so-coincidentally hear every time you'll visit Nine Wood Hills, and is one of the most relaxing tracks of the game. There is also the breathy trance of Labyrinth of Dragons, and the sharp beauty of Labyrinth of Ice. WoFF's soundtrack alternates between calming trance-like tracks, tracks with personable charm, and then, not to be outdone, we've also got our fair share of atmospheric horror. Both World of Babil and World of the Coliseum have a relentless beat - Babil's is off-kilter and more organic, whereas Coliseum's is more mechanical. In comparison, World of Sunshine is a gentle, delicate breath of fresh air. One of my favorite songs on the soundtrack is Labyrinth of War, which starts with an odd-ball charm and turns into a rousing, weighty march. The Prismelodies are new arrangements of old FF classics, and they are all genuinely fantastic. Personal stand-outs alongside Terra and Eternal Wind mentioned above, are the suitably ominous and atmospheric Prismelody - Mako Reactor, the electric (literally!) rendition of Prismelody - Those Who Fight Further, a more unique rendition of Prismelody - Balamb Garden, and the shining Prismelody - Blitz Off!/Zanakard.
World of Final Fantasy, as both a soundtrack and a game, was something I didn't realize how much I needed in my life. Of all the soundtracks this year, this has definitely been the one I've listened to the most. Such a pleasant surprise all-round, I can't recommend it enough.
3. Oxenfree
Oxenfree was one of my most memorable gaming experiences from the last few years. It's a clever game with charismatic characters and phenomenal art direction, with an almost palpable atmosphere thanks to scntfc/Andrew Rohrmann's incredible score. Half of the soundtrack is charming and relaxing, but with a constant ominous and relentless undertone. The other half is, well, hair-raising. I'm always in awe of soundtracks that have a perfect synergy with the games they were written for, and my top three gaming soundtracks for 2016 encompass this well. Oxenfree does steal the show in this department, and there are very few soundtracks that enhance both the pacing of the game and the art direction with the score alone. Oxenfree would be a wonderful game without its soundtrack, but Rohrmann takes it to another level, and the two feel irrevocably intertwined in both a beautiful and deeply uncomfortable experience.
There is the relaxing beachy chill of Beacon Beach, that also happens to have a darker, non-musical twist when understood in context of the story. The calming and beautiful Epiphany Fields still has an unnerving undercurrent. There is the perky, yet deeply uncomfortable Against the Rocks, and the breezy and cathartic Towhee Grove. Cleanslate is beautiful and mysterious, and the chilling and disturbing Cold Comfort is one of the most memorable tracks in the game. My favorite track from the soundtrack is the quiet and reflective The Beach, 7AM. Oxenfree's soundtrack enhances the game itself, whilst still stepping into the the spotlight on its own merit. It's extremely hard to do both, and is very memorable because of it.
Honourable Mentions:
- Virginia
It took me a bit of time to get this list together, and I'm glad that I did, because in that time I got to play Virginia. My jaw dropped from the very beginning with the Main Titles. As pretentious as it sounds, the cinematic synergy between the soundtrack and the visuals was superb. The soundtrack is such an incredible achievement, and is absolutely integral in holding the game together, and provides the pacing. Since there is no dialogue (or even moving lip flaps on the characters), the soundtrack itself becomes the dialogue, the narration... it sets the pace, and it takes you and holds you throughout the game. It's the glue that holds the game together, and is the drive that pushes you forward, and the gentle hand that holds you back. Virginia is very much worth playing for the soundtrack alone.
Inauguration beautifully sets the tone of the game, with a brisk and heart thumping musical build. The scenic and inquisitive Taxi Ride is definitely one of my most memorable tracks. The Twin Peak's inspired Sojourner's Truth is a highlight both in-game and out. Departures/End Credits is a masterpiece, and drives the end of the game into the End Credits, and keeps you spellbound throughout.
- Civilization VI
Civilization VI is a bit of an odd one of my list, as I haven't played the game, but have been obsessed with the soundtrack. The gradual builds from the Ancient - Medieval - Industrial - Atomic Eras was fantastic. The Ancient/Medieval eras ended up being my favorites due to the striking simplicity, before they became a lot more expansive and orchestral for the Industrial and Atomic Eras.
Sogni vi Volare is a soothing balm to 2016 as a whole, and is filled with wonder, strength, unity, and hope. I think it actually beats out Baba Yetu for me, which is an incredible song in its own right. Along with Sogni vi Volare, some of favorite tracks from this year out of all the soundtracks in general ended up belonging to America and its variations. The rustic, mournful charm of America - Ancient Era and the more upbeat hopeful America - Medieval Era, followed by the powerful and proud America - Industrial Era. Sorry, Atomic Era, it was all downhill from there, both literally and figuratively. I also really loved Arabia - Medieval Era and the build into Arabia - Industrial Era. Other Medieval Eras of personal note were the rich and airy France - Medieval Era, the delicate drumming of Egypt - Medieval Era, the comforting warmth of India - Medieval Era, and the heartpounding build of Russia - Medieval Era.
- Final Fantasy XV
I have a few frustrations with FFXV's soundtrack, and feel that overall WoFF's soundtrack came out stronger in both focus and cohesion of the two games. Whilst there are a lot of lows for me personally with the soundtrack, the highs with FFXV are extremely high. ARDYN is one of the strongest FF character themes in years. It's deliciously slimey, without being remotely overstated - the track has a perfect balance. Wanderlust beautifully encapsulates the open world aspect to the game, and takes the listener on a journey that builds in scale. The grandiose and charming Starlit Waltz is a highlight, as is the gentle NOCTIS. I love the contrasts between the driving yet thoughtful Hunt or Be Hunted, and I particularly enjoy the winding build that starts at around 55 seconds in. The decadent The Fight is On! makes for a very refreshing battle theme. One doesn't really need to introduce Somnus, as it's just as captivating as it first was all those years ago. The relentless The Hydraean's Wrath and the God of War-esque worthy Hellfire were my boss theme highlights. FFXV's peaceful and regal Main Theme from Final Fantasy is a wonderful rendition of an old mainstay, with a fantastic climatic finish. It's definitely one of my favorite versions of the FF theme.
Valse di Fantastica
2. World of Final Fantasy
Decisive Battle
3. Tokyo Mirage Sessions
Honorable Mentions:
Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice
Steins;Gate 0
Hellfire. Seriously Hellfire. Best track in any game ever imo. Across the Waves, Bros on the Road I & II, Somnus, Cleigne battle theme, Dawn, Main theme, Cindy's theme. I could go on but I'll stop with those.
2. World of Final Fantasy
Almost tied with FFXV's one for the sheer variety and breadth of quality! Great soundtrack!
3. Pokemon Sun/Moon
Loved the soundtrack here. Fit the mood and setting well.
2. Furi
3. The Last Guardian

- The Division

Soundtrack is ace, and really helpds establish the type of world you're in. Sippin on the turks with A Star Pierces the Dark on all twelve slots of the jukebox really got me thinking about things.
Man this reminds me of the djent shit I used to listen too back when I would go to every warped tour. Mike Gordon done good. It was hard to choose, but I'll have to go with BFG Division for fav track.
3. Oxenfree
Smooth tracks that really help set the vibe of the Island. Fav track would have to be Cold Comfort.
2. Final Fantasy XV; Just the tunes you can buy for your car alone would make it top 3 for me this year, but thankfully its original songs are just as good, with the songstress behind Kingdom Hearts giving us her best soundtrack yet, which runs the gambit from fun, heart pumping, and somber.
3. Street Fighter V; Rashidoooooooooo!^^ Mostly great remakes of old songs, the new ones are good enough as well to put it on the list.
I am Setsuna; My honorable mention is the OST that hit my personal weird tastes right on the head. I collect piano versions of RPG music, so you can imagine an OST that is all piano is right up my proverbial ally^^
*Sky Bridge
*Counterfeit Mermaids
2. Doom (Mick Gordon)
*Argent Combat
*Welcome To Hell
And...that's...all I got I guess.
I did not play many games in 2016 :[
2. Uncharted 4
3. Witcher 3: Blood and Wine
Figures that there are a lot of metal heads in here. Was my thing in my teens, not any more though. I can see it is a good fit for Doom.
2. Final Fantasy 15. I think the game doesn't utilize how great this soundtrack is. The anticipation for this Soundtrack was probably one of the few things left that made me excited for FF15 and it went beyond my expectations particularly the battle music.
3. The Last guardian. Beautiful soundtrack. "Forest" first time riding on Trico to the edge and looking out left a huge impression on me and the experience only got better as the game continued.
2. Doom
3. Uncharted 4
Special Mention:
Odin Sphere leifthrasir
1) Wow, I'm happy that the turnout is so good this year! I don't remember having to count this many votes before... if I did, that was probably when I just took over these threads. It's a genuine surprise, and I hope folks stick around for the 7th gen vote whenever AniHawk makes that happen and I make the companion thread for it.
2) Some of you are, uh, voting twice. It's only a handful but what I'm doing in this case is I'm using your second vote instead of your first. Please double check if you have voted twice and you're sure your second ballot is the one you want to stick with. Just let me know if you've changed anything.
3) Some folks have incomplete lists (ie: "I'm posting this part but I'll write the rest of the list later", etc) and since I don't really have time to go after everyone who has an incomplete list, I'm just counting what you have.
4) I'm being pretty generous if you're not following the sample ballot format, but writing something only like "Massive Toasters XVI: The thread" or "heckin flashlight action - I liked that soundtrack" in your post leaves me unsure as to whether or not I should count that as a vote.
5) I use sentences or little writeups you have in the OP of the results thread so it helps if you do write something even if it's the tiniest comment ever.
6) Some of you have ineligible soundtracks in your list (like maybe 2-3 people) which fall under the "no ports which don't have massive soundtrack changes" category, so please double check your ballot.
7) If you made any changes to your list please let me know via PM or twitter or a post in here or whatever so I can make the change in my count.
I think that's it?
Please continue voting until Sunday.

1. Mirror's Edge Catalyst
I'm a bit of an oddity in really, really digging the game, and a large part of my love for it, as with the original, is in its perfect blend of visuals and audio. The ambient soundtrack is just awe-inspiring, and it's even more sublime when encountered in context. Breathtaking.
2. VA-11 Hall-A
A delightful, eclectic mix of synthy goodness; one of my frequent disappointments in the game was finishing a night at the bar without having made it to the end of my jukebox playlist.
3. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Some moments of brilliance in this game, particularly in the quieter moments and hub areas. Really nicely realised.
Honourable Mentions (in descending order):
Rez Area X (if the rest of the game were new it would be in the list proper)
No Man's Sky
The Witness
Offworld Trading Company
Rather sarcastic to boot.

also i have to vote. i'm basically done with the games for this year. don't think i can reasonably squeeze in dqvii.
- Somnus (instrumental)
- Valse di Fantastica
- Omnis Lacrima
- Dream Catcher
- Maybe Friends, Maybe Lovers
- Smile for Me
A gloomy-melancholic piano and heavy strings soundtrack with equally paranoid electronic distortions contrasted by sometimes soothing and sometimes sinister synthy pads by Zinc LeMone for the Kickstarter survivor stealth game République caught me with surprise last year.
-The Morning Bell
-Ones And Zeroes
-A call to arms
-To serve and protect
They nailed it. What an amazing score! Was able to purchase it from the Google Play store at it's launch for $7. Seven. SEVEN. Worth every penny and then some. Listen to it daily.
2. Forza Horizon 3
The Horizon series has introduced me to so many of my now favorite bands. This game was no exception and I LOVE and ADORE the inclusion of the classical music station. Booting this game up and hearing Cut Copy's Lights and Music while speeding around the outback at night with blaring neon everywhere was bliss.
Looking through the thread, lots I still need to give a listen/ play at some point.

If you couldn't tell from this post or this one (spoilers in linked posts), I love this soundtrack and everything about it. I had a tough time ranking the tracks and it got harder as I got into the top 35-40. This is a soundtrack full of amazing original music that it's hard to pick just a few. Just listen to some of the songs off my top 25 list (spoilers here too) and you'll know that this soundtrack is one of the best Final Fantasy has ever produced. Some amazing tracks...
Somnus Ultima
Dewdrops at Dawn
Magna Insomnia
Song of the Stars
Bros on the Road II
2. World of Final Fantasy
World of Final Fantasy has a wonderful soundtrack full of callbacks that make it a joy to listen to. That said I didn't place it over FFXV due to how many of the songs are retreads of songs from past titles. That said, it is a strong soundtrack and one I enjoy listening to.
Main Theme of Final Fantasy (Cornelia Plains)
3. Bravely Second: End Layer
While not better than Bravely Default, Bravely Second has a very strong soundtrack that is very well done and one I enjoy listening to on regular occasion.
Altair and Vega's Theme
(Saving Persona 5 for next year.)

More than Friends?Mature
Lou was waiting for them when they returned
"You two were quick."
"Humans are suicidal today." Gabriel said ducking under the half closed shutters, Lou frowned.
"Don't tell me you killed one."
"Thousands of them." Gabriel grinned Lou just looked at him his eyebrows raised.
"It's not a joke." Lou growled.
"And I'm not stupid." Gabriel snapped as Dawn pulled the shutter closed.
"I know that" Lou growled back.
"Then prove it." Gabriel said walking away he headed to the fire pit. The others weren't around but there were packed bags and weapons laying around the fire but only Rossier, Balthazar and Amarantine were on the seats. Gabriel sat down heavily Lou and Dawn joined him.
"Is everyone sorted?" Amarantine asked.
"I think so." Lou said "are you two packed?" he asked warily waiting for an annoyed answer from Gabriel.
"Since we arrived." Gabriel said.
"Good" Amarantine smiled "I think nine tonight, it gives everyone a chance to make sure they have everything." Gabriel nodded and lit a cigarette.
"So, when we get to Hell, what then?" Rossier asked a small wisp of fire seemed to jump up as he watched the flames, it twisted itself into a ball and Rossier smiled.
"Rossier." Lou snapped "save your magick." The fire ball vanished and Rossier made a huffing sound.
"I'm bored." He grumbled.
"Find something to amuse yourself." Dawn said his own cigarette lit he leant back and watched as Rossier grinned at Gabriel. "Don't. You. Dare." Dawn snarled Rossier sighed again.
"Where are the others?" Gabriel asked.
"Clearing out the storage units." Lou said "we don't want anyone knowing we were here."
Outside Allegra was folding the sheets from the beds.
"What's wrong?" Lewis asked as he dragged the last mattress out into the warehouse yard.
"I'm not sure." Allegra sighed, she looked up at the young vampyre and smiled. "How are you doing?" she stacked the sheet on top of the others. "You know with the feeding and all?" Lewis sat down on his mattress and rubbed the back of his neck.
"Not brilliantly." He said "I'm not used to hurting people." Allegra sat down beside him.
"It'll get easier" she smiled brushing his ashy blond hair from his eyes.
"In a way that's worse." Allegra nodded.
"It's a shame that all of this happened now, you really needed someone to take care of you." Allegra saw Lewis' grey eyes look at her closely. "Someone like Sylver?" she added slowly.
"Or Gabriel?" Lewis said looking away from her.
"I don't think he would, he prefers to feed alone." Allegra shivered as the chilly air cut through her thin clothes.
"I noticed." Lewis smiled and wrapped one arm around Allegra, grateful for the warmth she settled her head against his shoulder. "He's changed so much since he was an angel, his attitude towards Dawn confuses me too." Lewis nodded. "But it is possible that he's scared, when he's nervous he shouts at things."
"I would have thought he and Dawn would be together again by now."
"So did I." Lewis sighed looking up the stars were only just visible in the dark pink sky. "You never know what Aura did to him though, she could have put an idea in his head we'd never know."
"No" Allegra agreed, she snuggled down beside the vampyre not minding at all when she put an arm around him too.

Russia planning to ban 'Gay Propaganda' for underage children and youth

Russia's parliament is considered a national law that forbids the "minors directed a gay propaganda," all over the country.Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27811313
A similar law is already in force in nine Russian region, including St. Petersburg.
A number of sexual minorities' rights advocate organizations have strongly criticized the proposal.
Have also joined the protest in the Italian city of Milan, which is why gay laws broken the 45-year town friendship with St. Petersburg.
Gay Sexuality was forbidden to the Soviet Union from 1933 onwards. The ban was lifted in 1993.
Bill is intended to be handling 19 December.
[link to www.hs.fi]
Well the connections between homosexuals and paedophilia are very cleverly hushed up. Most normal heterosexuals do not want sodomite propaganda in schools and culturally placed in childrens minds. Only demonically possessed Satanists and Freemasons want that.

Buying In
Sweat. Profuse. Dripping.
The scent of man pervaded the air.
Adrenal gland secretions.
He had used a Stim-kit™. He had his back against the wall. Nowhere to run? Or was something else going on?
Fear. Co-mingled with defiance.
This one would be difficult. The scared, desperate ones weren't usually a problem... unless they felt they were innocent. Those were always the worst.
The Patchwork bio-enhanced soldier, also known as PBES-172, sniffed the warm air surrounding his deployment location. He was still a fair distance away from the target, but one could never walk into this kind of situation unprepared.
He unsheathed his hunting knife, testing the edge against a thumb. Dark blood welled at to the surface — the last vestige of my humanity, he considered. The blade would do. He was equipped with the latest in nanotech and armed to the teeth, but his hunter instincts still preferred a more personal killing technique. The visceral thrill of killing at close range always made him feel more alive than anything else could even come close to.
Before becoming a Patchwork, he had been a regular soldier. Heavy infantry, 401st Division, deployed for three years in the former East European Conglomerate. He had been recruited young, still in his early twenties, and had excelled at his given task: killing. He had a taste for it; that was what made for the best Patchworks, they had told him. A taste for blood. Five years of black ops for the Corporacracy as a military assassin, before taking on his new assignment as a Patchwork.
Now, he had shed the bulk of his humanity. To become a Patchwork, one had to buy in — literally and figuratively. In addition to years of dedicated service to the Corporacracy, one had to give up all of one's personal possessions and wealth. No connections to family or friends could remain.
To become a Patchwork, one needed to be reborn, to shed one's former life entirely.
He'd amassed a fortune as an assassin, but he was more than willing to give it up for the opportunity afforded him. This was the Corporacracy's assurance that Patchworks were dedicated to the task at hand; they gave up everything to become the ultimate killing machine. In return, they were granted absolute power: a mandate to kill, and the ability to do so without regard for the well-being of others. To the sociopathic mindset of most applicants, this was a dream come true.
The Patchwork stood alert, his gaze directed to the south of his current position. Bio-enhanced senses probed ahead, up to a two-mile radius. It appeared that his target had stopped running. He was there, standing his ground. Two warm bodies were approaching him, armed, moving erratically.
PBES-172 smiled.
They don't know what they're walking into, the poor saps.
He started walking.

After almost two years and the best part of $2m in legal fees on both sides, the American Floyd Landis's convoluted battle to retain his 2006 Tour de France win finally came to an end today when the Court of Arbitration in Sport turned down his appeal against a positive test for the male hormone testosterone.
The CAS confirmed the validity of the test and ruled that Landis should pay $100,000 towards the legal fees of the US Anti Doping Agency. Landis is currently serving a two-year ban which ends in January 2009, and was formally stripped of his Tour title in favour of the Spaniard Oscar Pereiro at the end of last year. The 2008 race starts this Saturday in the Breton town of Brest.

This stunning crystal four light bath bar features dimensional lines that sparkle from within the chrome finish frame.More Details >
A curved frame of laser-cut chrome finish metal creates an array of lines, circles and diamond shapes that extend out from the wall in this crystal bathroom light. A host of inlaid clear jewels and beads give depth to this magnificent wall light from the Mica Collection by Eurofase Lighting.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
The hanging crystals are on the inside of the fixture and there are at least 14 of them and it looks like at the bottom of end of each hanging crystal is another hole to add some more length to them is desired. I think I will add a larger piece to the end of each so that the hanging crystals are just above the top medicine cabinet mirror.

awkward closets
i live in an apartment and there are 2 4' x 8' closets in my living room. What makes it even more awkward is that one of them is flushed against another wall (meaning there is no spacing or drywall between the wall and where the closet door begins).
Can anyone think of an idea to hide them? I want to be least intrusive as possible so when i move out i can easily remove it. I have curtains up now, but they don't look very good. I was thinking about a tapestry or two, but i have painted something on the other wall, so i did not want two accent type walls. Help please!
Post a picture, why is there not Bifold doors in these openings?
