Ellen's story; Vance's story
From then on, Isabel was a part of the household. Or so she thought. The maids came to check on her all of the time, and even people who did not need to do so came to see who this strange new girl was.
As the effects of time travel did their work, Isabel had a chance to observe the routines. Within a week, she had the three maids who lived there on her side. It would be better to discover this secret fast, Isabel told herself.
Ellen, who was the eldest, had the most authority. She was often taking care of Isabel, making sure she ate and rested. About a week after her waking, Isabel decided to ask her a few questions to see how this household was built. It ran so well, it was almost amusing.
"Ellen, how long have you worked here?"
"I've been under the employment of Mr. Saint-Claire for two years now."
"Are they good to you here?"
Ellen nodded. "They've always been good to me, miss. Ever since they took me in. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else, and no one else would take me."
"No one else?" Isabel repeated. That did seem odd. "Why was your master the only one who would take you in? Did something. . .happen?"
Ellen sat down on a small chair by the bed. "It's a very sad tale, miss. I'm not sure you would like to hear it. But I can tell you that no one will ever see a man like Mr. Saint-Claire ever again. He's not an ordinary sort."
"But why was he the only one who would take you? Did something bad happen?" Isabel asked again.
Ellen sighed a little. "'Cause my previous employer did things to me. Just before I turned sixteen. . . .I found out that. . . ." she paused.
"Go on. It's alright." Maria tried to sit up.
"I was having his child, miss. He beat me until it died." Ellen explained quietly, a tear rolling down her cheek. "It was four months later that the master found me."
"How did he convince you to work for him? Weren't you afraid?"
"I was, miss. But he didn't shun me, you see. He told me that he looked up my first employer, before that awful man, and they had told him that I have no equal. He asked me if I could take care of the missis and keep a reign on any other maids that he hired, and the wages would be more then acceptable."
"So you agreed." Isabel guessed, realizing how dangerous it could have been.
Ellen nodded. "I thought it would be tricky at first, miss, but Mr. Saint-Claire was good to me from the first day. I wasn't the only one, either. Lydia and Jocelyn, Vance the footman, even Mrs. Massey the cook has a story.
"We were all victims of some sort until the master found us. He's a different person. He doesn't care if something bad happened to us. He just. . . .helps. If God were on anyone's side, it'd be Mr. Saint-Claire's. That I'm certain of, and I'm not well-acquianted with matters of religion. I only know to say a simple prayer every night asking the good Lord to forgive me for my sins."
"That is. . . .excellent." Isabel murmured. "Thank you for telling me, Ellen. You've really never considered leaving?"
"Not once, miss." Ellen said with a smile. "Don't be surprised if the master finds a place for you here as well. He's a kind sort. He is a. . . I'm not really sure how to say it. . . "
"Philanthropist?" Isabel guessed.
Ellen nodded. "That's the word, miss. I remember it now. Mr. Vance told me what it meant the day after I was hired."
As it turned out, Ellen was right. She wasn't the only one. The days which passed by after that seemed long. The younger girls who Isabel had seen had stories of rescue as well.
Lydia, who was fifteen, had been rescued from the hands of her uncle, a pimp. Jocelyn, at fourteen, was from a poor family who had eight children. Even Vance, the footman, stopped in one day and let Isabel hear his story.
"I've been with Mr. Saint-Claire longer then the others, even our cook." he said. "But no one else has asked me how I came to be here 'sides you and Miss Ellen."
"How did you come to be here?" Isabel asked.
"Well," said Vance. "that right there is definitely not a story like Miss Ellen's, or even Miss Lydia's. But it is one worth hearing, if'n you're asking me."
"What happened?"
"Simply put, Mr. Saint-Claire saved my life."
Vance clearly hadn't told this story very often. He cleared his throat, and tried to look composed. "Well, about six years back, I had this girl. Beautiful, she was, and sweet as anything. I really loved her. I even planned to marry her. But. . . .the night I was going to pr'pose to her, I saw her smilin' and kissing another man."
Isabel's eyes widened. No matter what time you were from, that hurt. "Oh, no. . . "
Vance nodded bitterly. "Oh, yes. I didn't expect that sort of thing to happen to me. She saw me watching and tried to explain herself, but it were too late. I knew. She loved him more then me. It was in her eyes, it was."
"So what did you do?" Isabel asked, surprised at the numbing pain in Vance's eyes from the memory.
"I made my way down to the river, Miss. I wasn't afraid of death anymore."
"And. . ." Isabel tried once again to sit up.
"That's when the master found me, as I were about to jump. I had one foot up, ready to leap over the bridge when this great carriage comes up like it were from nowhere and two men leap from it to safeguard me from a-drowning. It were Mr. Saint-Claire and his butler, who was also driving that night as one of the servants had been fired.
"They wrestled me into the carriage, and the master got out of me all that had happened with Lacie, and then he offered me a job. Since that night, I've been here as his servant."
"Wow. . ." Isabel murmured. It was so tragic. Like something out of a movie. "It sounds like Mr. Saint-Claire is a little more then extraordinary."
Vance nodded. "Men like 'im, they comes far and few between on this earth. He can do things right and still shows up to all of them fancy parties. Most people he meets has sommthin' to be grateful for."
"How could such a man exist?" Isabel murmured. He seemed sort of revered, like those demigods that she had read about in books. But he wasn't arrogant at all. Just a nice guy.
"Not easily." Vance answered. "It's very 'ard for him some days."
I'll bet. Isabel thought as Vance abruptly left the room, having heard someone call for him.

Elves Are a Real PainMature
The trio managed to reach the next town just after nightfall. For almost the whole afternoon, Sayumi had been trying to pick a fight with Ruki and once they found an inn that they could afford Sayumi got her wish. In their room Sayumi shouted at Ruki, "Why don't you just leave us alone! How do you even know that we are leading you to Sayumi anyway?! We could be leading you on a wild goose chase across the countryside to stall for her to escape!"
Ruki was starting to get sick of her attitude and replied, "For goodness sake! I'm paying for all your expenses on this whole damn trip, and you are busy whining about how you don't like me this entire time! You sound like a damn princess!" Sayumi's eyes widened a bit, and without even thinking she clenched her fist and punched Ruki on his left cheek. Ruki staggered back, pain sweeping through his mouth. Sayumi glared at him with all the rage that was in her heart and snarled, "I ain't no damn princess! Don't ever speak to me again, or I swear I will kill you!" With that, Sayumi stormed out of the room and slammed the door behind her.
Ruki looked at Will, who was shaking his head. Will sighed, "You touched a sore spot you idiot. Did you forget that she has been raised as a princess her whole life, only to find out that not only does she have no royal blood, but she is a half-elf orphan with nowhere to go?"
Ruki blinked, then he felt like a complete bastard. Will sighed again and added, "You don't know very much about women do you?"
Ruki shrugged and muttered, "Well, I never really talk to any women so of course not."
Will got off his bed and walked over to Ruki. He put his arm across Ruki's shoulder and whispered, "I'll tell you a secret about that girl, something she may not even realize herself: she is incredibly lonely. All she really wants is someone to hold her tightly and tell her everything will be okay. However, in her current mood if you try and go near her... well, use your imagination."
Ruki asked, "Why are you telling me this?"
Will smiled. "I think I figured out that prophecy, and it's very important that you try to get along with her. How good you want to get along, that's your choice." Ruki eyes Will skeptically, but he really couldn't do anything, since elven minds are naturally immune to witch-folk. Ruki sighed and asked, "So what am I supposed to do?"
Will laughed and exclaimed, "Ruki, you have to figure it out for yourself! You won't have me here to give you advice when you get yourself in love with a girl and want to tell her how you feel! There are some things that a guy has to figure out for himself." Ruki moaned, and Will patted his back as he left to go find Sayumi.
"I don't understand, why did you agree to let him travel with us?" Sayumi asked angrily as she took a swig of ale. "He could figure out who I am at any moment and kill me!"
Will sighed. He almost couldn't believe how hopeless she was. "Don't you think you're forgetting something about warlocks? Do you remember what their abilities are?"
Sayumi scowled and replied, "Well, there's flying, moving things with their thoughts, and mind... reading..." Sayumi almost dropped her mug. "Wait a minute, that means that he knows what I'm thinking? He knows what I'm thinking right now?! That must mean he knows who I am!!" Sayumi was starting to panic, then she froze and blurted in confusion, "Then why hasn't he killed me yet?"
Will smiled. "Well, apparently Eliah is such a treacherous person even the most desperate of people don't trust him." Will went on to tell her the things Ruki had been telling him before; about his family, and the prophecy.
Sayumi frowned and asked, "But what does that have to do with keeping me alive?" Will stared her dead on, and Sayumi gasped. "You don't think the prophecy is about me, do you? That's absurd! I don't have an untold secret, and I'm not aided by faeries."
Will replied, "I'm not saying it definitely is, but I'm saying I want you to not take it off the table. You were deceived of your birth, after all. Don't think that you aren't the right type of person either, because often its the most unlikely of people that end up saving the world." Will got up from the table, and called over his shoulder, "You might want to come apologize to Ruki. Just saying."
After grumbling for a while, Sayumi trudged upstairs to their room and found Will wasn't there, just Ruki sitting on his bed sharpening his sword. Sayumi cleared her throat, and announced nervously, "So, Will told me everything."
Ruki looked up, and muttered, "That meddling cheeky bastard."
Sayumi continued, "Anyway, I wanted to apologize for the insulting things I've said about you the past couple days." Her kind expression that she had been wearing instantly changed to anger as she asked, "But why didn't you say you knew who I was?! That is messed up, making me worry for my life these past two days!"
Ruki laughed and replied, "Well, at first it was funny, but after a while it was all Will's idea..."
Sayumi growled, "I knew having you two together was a bad idea." She put her hands on her hips and announced, "I will forgive you, but that means when we get to Repremendant we need to talk to someone about this prophecy. And also I need to talk to a witch who discovered her powers after birth. After that, we will go save Rakelle and kill Eliah and save your kind." Ruki nodded, and Sayumi walked over to him and shook his hand.
The next morning, Sayumi made sure to get everyone out of bed pretty early, and they were on the road just barely after sunrise. Will was so exhausted he tied himself to his horse and kept sleeping. Ruki was drowsy as well, but Sayumi had a new sense of energy that she hadn't had for a long time. Even Kayo seemed revitalized. As the hours ticked by, with Ruki waking up enough to have the first pleasant conversation with Sayumi they had ever shared, Sayumi was starting to feel at ease for the first time in a long time.
When they stopped to eat, Sayumi asked between mouthfuls of sandwich, "So Ruki, you can read minds. Do you think you could read Rakelle's mind for me and tell me how she's doing?"
Ruki nodded and he stared into space for a moment. After about five minutes, he relaxed visibly and replied, "Well, she is in the dungeon at the castle in Feresat. She is worried about you, since everyone at the castle is telling her you are going to die. Don't worry, one of my other abilities is projecting my thoughts. I told her that you were fine, but I didn't tell us where we are. I also warned her not to tell anyone that you are okay."
Sayumi lit up and without thinking wrapped her arms around Ruki and cried happily, "Thank you so much! You really are an amazing guy!" Ruki's face slowly turned red, and Will smirked to himself. Ruki cautiously put his arms around her, and after a moment she let go. Ruki looked away, not wanting Sayumi to see him blush.
Once they were back on the road, Sayumi let Ruki take the lead, and rode next to Will. Kayo snorted, having a dislike for the draft horse that Will was riding. Sayumi ignored him and asked Will, "So Will, how many more days until we reach Repremendant? We need to hurry and save Rakelle!"
Will smiled a little and replied in a tired voice, "We should get there by noon tomorrow. Don't worry, it's not far now." Sayumi nodded, and glanced at Will when he thought she wasn't looking. Will's expression showed a deep loneliness, as though he had just lost his best friend. Sayumi had never seen him display any emotions other than worry and utter happiness, so she was concerned. She asked, "What's wrong?"
Will paused for a little while, then sighed. "I'm worried about her Sayumi. You know, it was sort of your father's hope that I would fall in love with you and take you back across the sea with me. But I just can't see myself with anyone other than her."
Sayumi nodded, and her heart went out to him. She added gently, "You know, she wouldn't object to you asking to marry her."
Will held up his hands in a hopeless gesture. "But it's not that simple. She is the princess of Feresat, the most beautiful kingdom in the human world. And I'm a poor elven warrior, not even able to afford my own unicorn to ride. Besides, I could never take her back home; my family would disown me, and she would become an outcast in our society. I could never do that to her."
Sayumi replied, "Then you could stay here."
Will stared at her, completely dumbfounded. "Stay here? But, that would mean I would have to abandon my post. Not only that, I would become king. KING! No elf has ever married a human of such status before, and somehow I doubt the people of Feresat would accept me as their king."
Sayumi laughed. "Will, when you're in love, sometimes you have to take risks that you aren't ready for. But if you don't do it now, she could move on and you will be left alone." Sayumi put her hand on his shoulder and added, "Rakelle loves you, isn't that all you need?" Then she took the edge of his hood, and pulled it off his head. She smiled and exclaimed encouragingly, "Be proud of who you are! If you show the people kindness and justice, they will definitely accept you!"
Will smiled and thanked Sayumi for her enthusiasm. Ruki, who had been listening in on the whole conversation, was getting a little jealous. He called from up ahead, "Hey! You want to get there as soon as possible right? Then get a move on!!" Sayumi blinked a few times at how angry he sounded, then she kicked Kayo into a gallop to catch up. Will smiled at how oblivious she was, and followed suit with his horse.
Meanwhile, back at the castle, Eliah had managed to find the most ruthless, hateful warlock he had ever came across. He held him in a place of respect for the amount of hatred he had for anyone, and everyone. Eliah closed his eyes and asked, "So you are saying, that Ruki has betrayed us and joined forces with the monster and the elf?"
The warlock nodded. "Yes sir. It also appears that he is starting to develop feelings for her as well."
Eliah burst out laughing so hard he fell right off his throne. He gasped, "I can't take this, its too much!! The traitor and the monster? Too much!!" He went on like this for about five minutes, then he stopped suddenly, and got up and asked seriously, "How should we deal with a traitor like him?"
The warlock shrugged. "I could go kill him if you want."
Eliah shook his head and muttered, "No no, that would be to simple. We need to have some fun with this! Hmm, what should we do, what should we do... ah! How about you go kill him?! It would be perfect! Cut him up into little pieces, and then kill the monster, and then the elf! Ahahaha, I'm so brilliant!!"
The warlock looked at Eliah skeptically, then asked, "You want me to go now?"
Eliah looked up in surprise, then replied quickly, "Yes yes, go now! The sooner the better! Then I can continue with my plan!" The warlock took off in flight and flew all the way out of the castle, and searched for the minds of his targets.
Sayumi and the others didn't see a town in a reasonable distance, so they set up camp near the road just before sunset. As Sayumi ate her dinner, she watched the sky turn all beautiful shades of orange and red, and she asked, "Will, why does the sky turn different colors at sunrise and sunset?"
Will stared into the sunset as well, and replied, "Well, us elves have a legend about that:
"A long time ago, there was a witch who was in love with her familiar, a handsome male centicorn. Relationships between faeries and humans are forbidden, so she kept her feelings hidden for a long time. However, she ended up coming across an old spell book that had instructions for turning a centicorn into a human. Delighted, the witch set to work on the spell. The spell was successful, but once the centicorn was human the witch discovered that he didn't feel the same way about her."
Sayumi waited for Will to continue, but it seemed like his story was over. She blurted, "So, what does that have to do with the sunrise and sunset?"
Will shrugged. "They never told me. They just told me that was the story. I never really understood it myself. My mother used to tell me that someday I would understand, but I'm sort of skeptical." Sayumi turned her head a little to one side, and Ruki furrowed his brow. Will sighed, and after watching the sunset for a few moments he climbed into his bed and drifted off to sleep.
Sayumi wanted to sleep as well, but something kept her awake. It was a feeling that something horrible was going to happen if she fell asleep. Ruki and Will were snoring peacefully, and Sayumi stared at the now-darkened sky. Something caught her eye, and she squinted to get a better look at the object. It looked almost like a bird at first, but the shape rapidly got bigger, and Ruki's dive out of the sky when she first met him popped into her head, and she leaped out of the way as a man shot from the sky and slammed into the ground where she had just been sitting.
Sayumi drew her sword (Will's sword that she adopted as her own), and pointed it at the intruder. She hissed, "What are you doing, trying to crash into people like that?"
The warlock rubbed his head and looked up at her with a gaze of malice. He replied simply, "Why, orders from the King! I'm going to kill you and the traitor, and the elf too!" He raised his hands, and before Sayumi could react a large rock smashed into her leg. She cried out with pain, but didn't let her guard down as a few more came hurtling at her.
She dived out of the way of two, but was caught off-guard by the third. It struck her very roughly on her head, and she almost fell to the ground. After a second to regain her composure, she stood up again and faced the warlock. By this time Ruki and Will had been rudely awakened, and as Ruki started to ask Sayumi what was going on, he saw her facing a warlock he hadn't seen before. He noticed how much effort it was for Sayumi to keep standing, and he glared daggers at the assailant. The warlock was very focused on Sayumi, not even considering that the others were now awake. Ruki, slipped silently out of bed, and flew quietly until he was directly behind the warlock. He clamped his hands on the warlock's head, then glared at his head intensely.
The warlock laughed for a few seconds and started to draw a dagger, but just as he got the dagger out of it's sheath, his whole body froze up and he dropped the dagger. His eyes started to bulge out of his head, and his jaw dropped open into a silent scream. Then, a deafening splat resounded in the ears of all that were present. The warlock went limp instantly, and Ruki dropped his body to the ground and walked away.
Sayumi stared at the body with horror, and asked slowly, "What did you do to him?"
Ruki replied as he started packing up their stuff, "Don't even ask. It's too unpleasant for your ears." Will stared at the body with shock, and murmured to Ruki, "I've never seen such a technique before, where did you learn that?"
Ruki shook his head. "I don't want to talk about it." Will glanced at Sayumi, who was still staring at the body, which was now leaking blood out of its nose, ears, mouth, and even its eyes. Will quickly pulled her away and got her to work putting tack on Kayo.
They traveled as far from their campsite as they could, as quickly as they could. Sayumi couldn't stop thinking about the expression the warlock wore as he died. Sayumi couldn't help but wonder what Ruki had done to him, and she found herself shrinking away from Ruki when he got close to her. Ruki definitely noticed this, and with a saddened and regretful heart he stayed away from her.
Will rode next to Ruki and asked, "How's she coping?"
Ruki sighed. "I think she may be traumatized. If I had known she would react like this I would have just stabbed him instead. I guess I just didn't think that she had never seen a man die in such a way before."
Will added, "No, its not the way he died that bothers her. She saw the way he looked while you were killing him, and how much pain he was in. That is what bothers her, and she is scared of you for being able to do such a thing to someone."
Ruki ran his hand though his hair, feeling despair creep over him. "How can I show her that I'm not the one to fear here?"
Will sighed. "Just be patient, and make sure to be extra gentle with her. She is resilient, she will get over this quickly." Ruki nodded, but as he looked into her mind, he just saw images of the warlock's death flashing through her memory over and over again. He couldn't bear to see her so scared, so very carefully so she wouldn't notice, he slipped a thought of Rakelle into her mind. Sayumi jolted visibly, and as he kept looking into her mind, he saw the memories of her and Rakelle playing in the castle as children, and he wondered how she hadn't figured out that she was not the same race as Rakelle.
Sayumi felt much better after a while, but she was still wondering why she stopped thinking about Ruki killing the warlock. It was almost like she was a child again, crying in her father's arms. She felt like nothing could harm her, and it almost bothered her. Then she remembered that Ruki could project things into other people's minds. She whirled around and glared at him, and Ruki blushed a bit with a very innocent smile on his face. I know you can hear me, was that you earlier putting those things in my head?
Ruki looked at her with an innocent expression, then sighed and cantered his black mare up to ride next to her. He replied, "I'm sorry, you just seemed really scared and I wanted you to not be afraid. I guess it was sort of an invasion of privacy."

A GOOD percentage of blokes would probably have moved to the jungle to be near
Myleene Klass and her white bikini when she was on I'm A Celebrity.
But the TV presenter was convinced her own fella — who
dumped her recently after just six months of marriage — wanted to
move into the garden shed when they were living together.
In a previously unseen interview, done just weeks before she married Graham
Quinn last October following a five-year engagement, she talked about their
relationship troubles.
The former Hear'Say singer revealed their life together had become strained as
he struggled to get to grips with fatherhood.
She said: "I love the girls and having children, but Gray said he felt like an
unpaid runner first time round and I'd be like, 'Listen, enough of that, go
and get some muslins and help me'."
The ex-bodyguard walked out on his missus and their two kids on her 34th
birthday on April 6.
The couple had their first child. Ava, in 2007 and their second, Hero, was
born last year.
But Myleene — who
put on a brave face to present the Jubilee Family Festival in London's Hyde
Park yesterday — believed they had already started having problems
before Hero was born.
She said: "Ava didn't sleep in a cot until she was two-and-a-half.
"She stayed in our bed. But you know what, it's fine — we just need a bigger
"But I'm sure Graham's going to contemplate moving out into the shed."

Luzerne County Council's legislative committee will meet at 5 p.m. Tuesday in the council meeting room at the courthouse in Wilkes-Barre.
Proposed legislation advanced by the committee must be approved by a county council majority at a future meeting to take effect.
A proposal to decriminalize possession of a small amount of marijuana in Luzerne County is set for discussion at next week's county council legislative committee meeting.
County Councilman Edward Brominski publicly requested the discussion during last week's council work session and formally submitted an email Tuesday requesting its placement on the committee agenda.
Decriminalization — switching from criminal penalties to fines — for possession of a small amount of marijuana would reduce incarcerations, Brominski maintains.
"I feel it would help us to relieve the overpopulation of the county prison and probably prevent people with minor offenses no worse than DUI from being placed in prison," Brominski said at the work session.
He has pointed to successful decriminalization ordinances in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Harrisburg officials also are considering an ordinance, according to published reports.
Councilman Harry Haas, who chairs the legislative committee, asked if counties have jurisdiction to enact their own marijuana possession laws.
Assistant county Solicitor Shannon Crake is researching the matter.
Under state law, possession of up to 30 grams (about an ounce) of marijuana is a misdemeanor carrying a maximum of 30 days in jail and $500 in fines.
County District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis said Tuesday she must review the solicitor's ruling and details of Brominski's proposal before weighing in, although she stressed any assertions that decriminalization would significantly reduce the county prison population are false.
The reason: most, if not all, cases of a small amount of marijuana possession are now funneled through the Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition program, which allows participants to avoid jail and get their charges erased from their record upon completion, Salavantis said.
First-time offenders and those not convicted of the same offense within the past 10 years are eligible for ARD.
The District Attorney's Office added the marijuana charge to the ARD program in 2013, largely driven by the push to reduce prison overcrowding, Salavantis said.
Those charged with small-amount marijuana possession and nothing else typically are released on their own recognizance at the magisterial district judge level as they await adjudication, Salavantis said.
"At this point, they aren't sitting in jail," Salavantis said.
Doug Hill, executive director of the County Commissioners Association of Pennsylvania, said Tuesday he is not aware of any Pennsylvania county discussing or attempting to implement marijuana decriminalization legislation.
City decriminalization ordinances may be more viable because only one police department is involved.
Luzerne County has around 48 locally-managed municipal police departments in addition to county detectives and state police, Salavantis recently said.
Under Philadelphia's ordinance, implemented in 2014, someone possessing less than 30 grams of marijuana can receive a $25 citation.
Pittsburgh's law, which took effect in an amended form last month, allows police the option to issue a $25 summary citation for possession of less than 30 grams of marijuana.
State Rep. Ed Gainey, D-Allegheny County, recently announced he will be introducing a "landmark" decriminalization bill modeled after the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh ordinances that "would completely eliminate any potential incarceration" for a small amount of marijuana possession statewide.
The legislation would amend the state's Controlled Substances Act to grade possession of a small amount of marijuana as a summary offense instead of a misdemeanor, eliminating "wasteful court proceedings," said a statement on his website.
"This legislation, I believe, reflects the will of Pennsylvanians who are considering decriminalization on the local level," he said. "Overwhelming evidence supports the notion that non-violent drug and alcohol abuse is a public health issue that requires treatment, and not imprisonment; it is not a criminal issue."
More than 18,000 are charged with minor marijuana possession in Pennsylvania annually, costing counties and cities more than $33 million in public safety and court expenses per year, he said. The breakdown for Luzerne County was not immediately available Tuesday.
Gainey said the misdemeanor conviction can lead to loss of employment, public housing and education loan eligibility and other "lifelong implications."

The howling winds which ruffled the region last week, gusting up to 130km/h, are a sign of early spring, a forecaster says - and there are more to come.
WeatherWatch.co.nz forecaster Philip Duncan said powerful winds on Thursday and Friday were due to a "big pressure gradient over New Zealand".
The country was in a "squash zone" between a big low to the east and a high to the west.
MetService meteorologist Liz Walsh said severe gale-force winds of up to 130km/h were recorded on the Mahia Peninsula at 8pm on Thursday.
At 7pm the same evening, gale-force winds of up to 83km/h were measured in Napier.
The winds persisted through Friday and died out on Saturday.
Ms Walsh said the winds brought some cold wind chills and some "good bits of snow" in the central North Island.
A dusting of snow could be seen about the hills at Te Pohue, near Napier, on Friday.
The harsh conditions didn't deter keen whitebaiter Alan King, Havelock North, from braving the chilly waters at the mouth of the Ngaruroro River at 5am on Friday morning.
The whitebait season officially kicked off on Friday and Mr King, who has been whitebaiting on the Ngaruroro River for 30 years, was sure not to miss the opening day.
"The sea was a bit rough, but it wasn't too bad in the river mouth."
Mr King said about 20 whitebaiters gathered on the river but "the cold water put a few people off".
He'd return to the river soon, as his 100 gram haul of whitebait had only been enough for an entree.
Meanwhile, Mr Duncan warned this weekend was likely to see similarly windy weather develop.
"[this] weekend Hawke's Bay is on the edge of a high over the South Island and a subtropical low to the east, in the squash zone again."
While September 1 is the official first day of spring, Mr Duncan said the winds were a sign spring had come early this year.
"In spring we get more and more of these windy setups. We're getting it earlier this year and we're likely to see more windy weather."
But Mr Duncan expected a "settled, dry" start to the week, with a daytime high of 16C today and tomorrow.
Today's weather was considered the pick of the week, with warm fine spells.
Cloud would develop tomorrow, and patchy rain would arrive on Wednesday.
There would be occasional showers about the coast and isolated heavy rain further north over the East Cape.
Winds would turn southerly on Thursday, causing a drop in temperature, with a high of 11C on Thursday and Friday.

Study: Working Moms Benefit Children
A large majority of American mothers work outside the home. In today's economic climate, most households need two incomes, but that doesn't mean Americans are happy with that shift.
A recent study from the Pew Research Center found that 41 percent of American adults say that the increase in the number of mothers working outside the home is "bad for society." Less than a quarter say it's a good trend.
A new study from Harvard Business School might shift that thinking. The study finds that the children of working parents see distinct benefits in school and at work.
In the United States, the daughters of working mothers earn 23 percent more than the daughters of mothers who stayed at home. Kathleen McGinn, a professor of business administration at Harvard Business School and co-author of this new study, says that the researchers saw a different trend among sons.
As McGinn explains, men tend not to see their mothers as role models for work; they see examples in their fathers or in society at large. But the sons of working mothers did tend to work more—at home. In the United States, the sons with working mothers spent seven and a half more hours a week on child care and 25 minutes more on housework.
Click on the audio player above to hear McGinn discuss her research, which included 50,000 adults in 25 countries.

Police arrested a 20-year-old driver whose three passengers were killed in a head-on collision in Nanakuli on Dec. 28.
The suspect was driving a Honda Civic that crossed the center line on Farrington Highway and crashed into a Nissan pickup truck carrying four people. Police determined that speed was a factor in the incident.
The driver's 18-year-old girlfriend, their 1-year-old daughter, and the driver's 19-year-old cousin were killed in the collision.
The driver was arrested Monday at the Kapolei Police Station on suspicion of three counts of first-degree negligent homicide and second-degree negligent injury. He was later released pending further investigation.

This Boy's Life is a memoir by American author Tobias Wolff first published in 1989. It describes the author's adolescence as he wanders the continental United States with his traveling mother. The first leg of their journey takes them from Florida to Utah, where Mom, fleeing an abusive partner, hopes to get rich quick finding uranium. Eventually Wolff's mother becomes involved with Dwight Hansen, and they settle in Concrete, Washington, north of Seattle, a place with plenty of natural beauty and, in their case, more than its share of personal desolation.

The question is: is the CTR normalized for ad position?
If yes, then it doesn't really matter what my position is until I know the different ROIs for particular positions.
If not, it might pay to make sure to get a good position at first, and establish a high CTR so the keyword would get a high quality score.

We have your boy
We have your boy.
Four simple words written in a scrawly hand. He kept re-reading it, although it said nothing more.
He went to the front door and let the two officers in. One was Montgomery-Officer Skinny, they called him. He could put away a dozen burgers at Macy's and not put on a single pound. The redhead with him looked familiar, but Frank couldn't put a name to him.
The two officers checked the place out, although he'd informed them that the perp had gotten away. He showed them to the kitchen, and where the note was still stuck on the fridge. Montgomery picked up the note with a pair of tweezers and turned it over.
"Nothing." He said. "No instructions, no demands." He put the note into an evidence bag.
"The place is a wreck." The redhead said. "Clearly, your son did not give in without a struggle."
Frank nodded. Clearly. He supposed he should have been proud that his son was such a fighter, but all he felt was concern.
It was all a blur after that. Crime Scene showed up and found nothing. Montgomery sat Frank down and asked him the usual questions- questions that Frank himself had often asked. He answered them in the same lost manner that the others had.
Helen wanted to stay over, but he sent her home- there was nothing she could do, and he felt like being alone. In his mind was etched the image of the baby-faced seventeen year old that meant more to him than anything in the world.
Eventually, everyone left. The new chief called him and assured him that they would do everything in their power to find his son. Many of his colleagues called him to show their sympathy. Eventually, when the chaos died out, it was two in the morning. He sat himself down at the kitchen table. In his hand was a picture taken five years ago at the beach picnic that the department and their families had went on that summer. Back when May had still been alive.
Frank was with May and Jake in the picture, looking happier than he'd felt in a long time now. May was smiling too. May, who had always been so full of life and joy. May, who had jumped off the the top floor of her office building for no apparent reason one day, and taken a part of Frank away with her. Jake was still there though, and he needed his father. Now more than ever.
He got up, feeling energized even though it was so late. He wanted to start right away. Come up with possible motives, maybe, and from it, compile a list of possible suspects. Anything that might help.
He never got the chance. As he looked around for his laptop...

Ruling Urges Swiftness For FLSA 'Pick-Off' Bids
The Company's recent failed attempt to end a potential Fair Labor Standards Act collective action by offering to pay the named plaintiffs' wage claims prompted a New York federal court ruling that attorneys say demonstrates the need to act quickly — for employers looking to complete an FLSA "pick-off" as well as plaintiffs looking to avoid one.
U.S. District Judge Raymond Dearie on Oct. 9 denied the Company's motion to dismiss a putative FLSA collective action, finding that although the retailer had made an offer to pay the claims of four named plaintiffs, he was "not entirely confident" that the offer accounted for all of the remedies those plaintiffs could have recovered. And although Judge Dearie found flaws in the company's offer of judgment and denied the Company's offer in the case, attorneys say the ruling did affirm that the strategy — often known as a "pick-off" — can be a legitimate tactic for employers, even when employees don't accept the employer's offer.
"The judge essentially gives a boost to the notion that unaccepted offers of full relief can moot an action," said Fisher Phillips partner Christine Howard, referring to the ruling by Judge Dearie, whose opening line says "sometimes surrender is the best option."
The Company had made the offers under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68, hoping that satisfying Afza Anjum and other named plaintiffs' allegations that they were owed wages for work they performed off-the-clock would render the case moot and allow the retailer to avoid a potentially costly collective action. The plaintiffs turned down the retailer's offer of judgment, prompting the company to file a motion to dismiss.
Judge Dearie determined that even in cases in which an employer's offer does fully resolve the named plaintiffs' claims, the case is not moot until a court actually enters judgment, answering a question that the U.S. Supreme Court left open after its 2013 decision in Genesis HealthCare Corp. v. Symczyk, which gave employers a green light to use the pick-off strategy in FLSA actions.
Although the Company ruling's impact might be mostly limited to the Second Circuit, attorneys said Judge Dearie provided guidance on what could make for a successful pick-off attempt.
"If there's a potential for an expansive FLSA action, the offer of judgment used early and smartly can defeat a pretty expansive collective," said Scott Rabe of Seyfarth Shaw LLP's employment practice. "The timing is key."
Rabe explained that Judge Dearie's conclusion — that, in the context of a pick-off attempt, the named plaintiffs' claims aren't moot until judgment is actually entered — signals to employers that, if they are interested in pursuing the strategy to try to defeat a potential class action, it can be key to act quickly.
Because a case would not be moot until a judge considers a motion to dismiss and enters judgment, the idea for employers would be to swiftly offer to pay the named plaintiffs' claims and file a motion to dismiss, Rabe said.
Howard also suggested that early action can serve an employer well, even though courts in other jurisdictions have reached different conclusions from Judge Dearie's on when a case becomes moot in the context of a pick-off attempt.
"With all the court decisions that have come out after Genesis, you're still going to have situations where the offer of judgment is an excellent tactic," Howard said. "Employers really have to look at the opportunities for these offers almost from the moment they get these lawsuits served upon them."
Judge Dearie's ruling also holds insight for plaintiffs' attorneys looking to dodge a pick-off attempt. Like their counterparts on the management side, plaintiffs lawyers would also have good reason to act quickly, according to Rabe.
Taking the Company ruling as a guide, a key early focus for plaintiffs would be to seek out other employees to opt into the suit and file a motion to certify a collective action. Both strategies, done quickly, may have the effect of keeping the employer's offers of judgment to the original plaintiffs from rendering the case moot, attorneys said.
"An employer will likely want to move as quickly as possible. A plaintiff will want to add opt-ins," said Rabe. "The Anjum [v. the Company] decision laid out very well what each party's tactics would be."
Of course, the adequacy of any timely offer also must pass muster with the court, according to attorneys on both sides of the employment bar. Judge Dearie pointed to a handful of potential flaws in The Company's offer to the named plaintiffs — including the damages period the company used in calculating the offer, failing to offer a separate award for pre-judgment interest and not fully accounting for potential damages under New York labor law — that, he said, raised "doubts about the adequacy of the offer."
"I am not entirely confident that the Company afforded all of the remedy to which the named plaintiffs are entitled. The court's preliminary conclusion is that the offer affords everything plaintiffs could recover under the FLSA, but falls short under the NYLL," the judge said. "The mere existence of these issues and the consequent need for court adjudication of the maximum value of each plaintiff's stake in the lawsuit forecloses the possibility that the Rule 68 offer extinguished this controversy at the time the Company made the offer."
Matthew Helland, a partner with Nichols Kaster PLLP, who represents employees, said that when employers attempt to use a pick-off strategy in an FLSA case, plaintiffs' attorneys often have room to argue that the employer's offer of judgment was deficient in some way, or wouldn't fully cover the employees' wage claims.
"It's difficult in an FLSA case to compute and actually pay full relief," said Helland.
The potential pitfalls of not making an adequate offer can, in turn, put the employer in the position of offering the employees an amount that is "greater than full relief" — which, Helland said, is something a plaintiffs' firm can then advertise in the hopes that other employees will be convinced to pursue their own wage claims.
"In that scenario, we use that as a launching point for the second case, a tag-along case," he said.
Despite the downsides of paying more than an employee is actually owed — and the threat of plaintiffs' lawyers using an offer of judgment as a way of advertising a case — management-side attorneys suggested adding a little extra into an offer of judgment, since it can be a way of anticipating the types of flaws Judge Dearie found with the Company's offers.
Baker & McKenzie LLP employment partner Douglas Darch went even further. In his view, not only should an employer offer to cover the named plaintiffs' allegedly unpaid wages, plus a "sweetener," but it also should actually "write a generous check and send it."
"If you actually send it to them, they can't say, 'You still owe me the money,'" said Darch. "The offer to pay it is not the same as paying it."
The case is Afza Anjum et al. v. the Company. et al., case number 1:13-cv-00460, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

13 Weird Things Found Inside Shark Stomachs
We know their hunger is insatiable — but where does it end? To see what else a shark's appetite consists of, watch Shark Week on Discovery, with all new episodes starting Sunday, August 4th at 9/8C.
1. A cannonball
Let's just call this one an act of desperation.
2. A tablecloth
3. An unopened can of sardines
Which did he enjoy more: the can or the sardines?
4. A fur coat
If you can't buy a fur coat, you might as well eat one. I think Coco Chanel said that to herself, in private.
5. A porcupine
It was worth a shot, ya know?
6. A polar bear
Not sure there's a good explanation for this one.
7. Grass
There's no "right" or "wrong" way to experiment.
8. A lump of coal
Because there were no more cannonballs!
9. A horse
Quite the hunger he must've had.
10. Wine bottles
This was probably after a bad day at the office, so let's let this one slide.
11. A cardboard box
A CARDBOARD BOX IS A DREAM YOUR HEART MAKES. Or something.
12. A copy of The Times
I guess some hate the vows column a bit more than others.
13. Snuffy the Seal
We're certainly praying for him, though.

McIlroy, Fowler among Abu Dhabi leaders
By Matt Smith
ABU DHABI (Reuters) - Rory McIlroy and Rickie Fowler were among a quintet tied for the lead in a fog-delayed, incomplete third round of the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship on Saturday as overnight frontrunner Andy Sullivan's late triple-bogey halted the Englishman's charge.
Poor visibility had again delayed the start of play for nearly three hours, with 60 players waiting to complete their second rounds.
That made for a strange day's golf as the likes of McIlroy, U.S. Masters champion Jordan Spieth and world number six Fowler played nine holes in the morning before returning to the course late afternoon.
Four-times major winner McIlroy grazed the pin from nearly 270 yards on the final hole of his second round, eventually making an eagle.
That followed a birdie on 17 -- his first of the round -- to catapult the Northern Irishman level with U.S. amateur champion Bryson DeChambeau on eight under and into the tournament-leading trio alongside Sullivan, 28, who was 10 under.
"I couldn't hole from outside two feet so I thought I'd hit a couple of shots within two feet on the last two holes. It glossed over a pretty average round," said the 26-year-old McIlroy.
Returning to the National course, McIlroy sunk a six-foot birdie on the second hole.
DeChambeau, in contrast, was loose from the tee and fairway and careless in his putting, slipping to seven under on the same green after a wayward four-footer. Continued...

When Nightmares Become Reality
When my dad did get up at around two in the afternoon, he came downstairs in a terrible state. He was pale and he looked as though there was nothing going on upstairs, if you know what I mean. Right when he saw my face, he turned from a blank stare, to anger.
"Why haven't you made me breakfast?"
"You were supposed to make me an omelet for breakfast. Why didn't you? I wanted a frickin ham and cheese omelet!"
I tried to remain calm. This happened a lot. "Dad, you never asked me to make you anything."
He began to yell and swear at me. Using many vile words, he told me how I couldn't do anything right and I never listen.
"Dad, listen to me. You have a problem. Look at the bottle on the table. Did you get sick last night? How much did you drink? You have a problem, Dad. We need to get help!"
"The only person who needs help is you! I had one small drink! Yah, and I had the stomach flu! Big deal!"
"Dad, you need to listen to me. Look at yourself in the mirror. You look disgusting. You act disgusting. You never told me to make you breakfast."
He then got a murderous look on his face and ran over to me. I cringed in fear. This was when he had always started to make me angry, when he continuously argues with me.
"What did you say to me?"
"You need help. You have a problem. You drink too much alcohol. You're hurting yourself. You're hurting me."
Out of nowhere, I received a punch in the nose. I bent over in pain, appalled. Was that my dad that just hit me?
"How dare you accuse me of drinking too much alcohol, you worthless little brat!"
Blood drained out of my nose and I tried not to cry. His words stung me. I ran out of the kitchen and to my room.
Tears falling from my eyes, I spent five minutes holding a tissue to my nose and applying pressure. When the bloody nose stopped, I was exceedingly tired. I felt as though I could actually sleep.
It took me about thirty seconds to fall completely asleep.
I was in the kitchen, holding my nose in pain. The clown was standing over me, holding his dagger in the air.
"It's me, you worthless brat. I'm the clown." My father's voice reverberated through my head.
My eyes widened in surprise. It's my dad. He's the clown.
He smiled an evil smile and lowered the dagger to my chest. Without knowing how I got one, I picked up my own knife and shoved it through the clown's heart. Blood poured out of the wound. I pulled the knife out and stabbed him again, this time in the neck. The blood was warm on my skin as it flowed. The clown's cold, dark eyes were almost brown in color, as he drew his last breath. The thought didn't faze me.
My eyes opened and I grasped that something was wrong.I'm in the kitchen, but…I looked at the dagger in my hand. It was full of blood. Then, I looked at the floor. It wasn't the clown I was looking at.
It was my father. The cold, dead, body of my dad.
A spark of realization hit me. I just murdered my father. I thought he was the clown in my dream, but…
My eyes watered yet again, but for another reason. I looked at my father's body again, and vomited my lunch. This was more than my stomach could handle. This was more than my heart could handle. This was more than I could handle at all.
Subconsciously, I stood up and walked down the hall. I grabbed my dad's car keys off the hook and went to the garage. I climbed into his red truck and started the engine. I pulled out of driveway, still only half sure of what I was doing.
As I drove down the road towards the lake, I knew that I was doing the right thing. All that I knew I could do. I couldn't live knowing what I've done.
I reached the road with the dead end. It was a cliff overlooking the lake. I stopped the car.
"I'm sorry, Dad." I said, and floored the gas.
I felt weightless as I drove off the cliff. There was the rush of falling and then blackness.
It was over.

Police on Wednesday removed 29 members of various Dalit organisations protesting at the Jalandhar Bypass for the past two weeks seeking jobs and education for the youths of the community.
Section 144 of the CrPc was also imposed in the area on orders of deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Harsh Bansal, prohibiting assembly of more than five people.
The members of the Dalit community were rounded up under preventive detention and for disrupting traffic on Jalandhar Bypass on the national highway.
Additional deputy commissioner of police (ADCP) special branch Harmohan Singh Sandhu, who has been given additional charge of traffic, said the detention was taken as a preventive action only.
Meanwhile, supporters of Dalit leaders gathered on the spot and allegedly pelted police with stones to protest against the detention.
The protesters had blocked traffic for at least two hours on October 20.
Sources in the health department said the supporters of leaders, who were rounded up, used to call the civil surgeon office every evening claiming that the condition of leaders was not stable and required immediate attention.

STUTTGART, Germany, Oct 3 (Reuters) Serena Williams put a ''crazy'' few games behind her to beat Julia Vakulenko of Ukraine 7-5 6-2 and reach the quarter-finals of the Stuttgart Grand Prix today.
Williams, the Australian Open champion and sixth seed, was leading 4-1 in the first set when she let her concentration slip, allowing her opponent to get back level.
The American recovered to finish off the first set in 40 minutes and proved too strong in the second, settling the match by breaking to love in the final game.
''I went a little bit crazy out there but it was important to keep positive,'' Williams said on court after the match.
She goes on to face Svetlana Kuznetsova in the last eight of the 0,000 indoor tournament after the Russian second seed won a scrap with Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska 6-4 6-7 6-3.
Kuznetsova served superbly throughout but after edging the first set she missed key breakpoint chances in the second.
Radwanska survived to a tiebreak, which she won 7-5, before Kuznetsova reasserted herself to move 5-0 ahead in the decider.
The world number two missed a chance to serve out at 5-1 but she made it at the second attempt.
''She was playing so well, really above herself in the second set and I knew she couldn't keep that up,'' Kuznetsova said at a news conference. ''If she had done so, bravo to her.'' There was an upset in the other second-round match on centre-court at the Porsche Arena when Tatiana Golovin of France beat fourth seeded Russian Anna Chakvetadze 7-6 6-1.
Golovin won the tiebreak 7-3, after her opponent had double-faulted on setpoint, and ran away with the second, taking it in 24 minutes with a forehand winner on her third matchpoint.
Fifth seeded Serb Ana Ivanovic cruised past Switzerland's Patty Schnyder 6-0 6-2 in a first round match.

The Smokey Bay
Poem written upon driving through Reykjavik, Iceland at night
Alien green overseer,
A foreign guardian,
An uncaring voyeur,
Our progress marked.
As the Tarmac hill subsides,
a great plateau of silver and amber grows.
scattered; ordered stars
sharp and stubborn flames
Mathematical carving,
Edifices of stone,
All disjointed,
Each to its own,
An unholy eruption of perpendicular lines
Steadfast; permanent
Cold water: hot ice
Shivers beneath the monoliths
Depth no counter to height
Fluidity subject to solidity
Still the bicoloured lights burned,
And the water returned the gaze,
And a green know only to space,
Played in the water, a turquoise haze.
But creeping slowly, breathing silently, squeezing gently,
like a child holding a doomed butterfly,
the land's fingers close on the extra terrestrial.
The shelter built by hands,
To be deconstructed.
the light: ignited by man
Unaware of the impending extinguishing.

If the answer to question 1 is no, will Andy Reid fire or demote defensive coordinator Juan Castillo? 4.
