Sorry if my words are offending. You know, it's frustrating that after all those long/hard works for a new novel, there're no one discussing about that.
the fourth part of the exciting NOT, part 1
Chapter 4: Time Hazard
Nearly dead, again.
After regaining consciousness again and check his physical status, Sousuke thinks so. Wholly wet and feels painful all over the body, but probably because of the AS pilot suit they just need some simple treatments------except the left arm which seems to be broken for a little. There're sounds of water flow and winds, but it's completely dark around and his NVG is nowhere to be found. At least he still has his torch in his back......and using the lowest level of light needed, what he saw at first is the surface of fallen rocks, broken foam boards and twisted wires. Simply said it's just a mess. He's now in a cave-like space which looks like underground pipelines, and there're water flow here which depth reaches the knees, junks are carried by the water and forms a small hill here. The water flow seems to be determined by seasons, and it seems that he is carried to here after he's fainted just like being flushed in the toilet. How far has he gone, and what time is it? Looking at his watch, he thinks that he just lost conscious for about 15mins, but by the quiet environment he should have been being washed away far from the crash scene. His Carbine is also lost. There're bones pf dead body around, but obviously Tessa isn't here, nor knowing her status and position. The radio can't be used as well, not only being flooded by water, but because of his position is enclosed underground. In the end he has to find his way back......
Running in the opposite way, he sees the brick walls instead of rocks, so it seems taht it's really a pipeline underground where rainwater and underground water gathered. He then finds a broken hole in the ceiling, climbing up by the ruins and reach an upper level: another vault. It's smaller than the first elevator vault, but its height is at least 5 floors. Judging from the debris laying around and the holes above the vault, he thinks that it's teh place he falls......But then he's just injured by a little, probably because of the debris on the walls slowed his falling speed and distance instead of falling a full 5-floor height. But in Tessa's case, things will be more different......Using the torch he searches among the ruins at the vault's base, she's not here but he finds his still-working Carbine (though no gauarantee that it can still fire at the vault's entrance). Is she above there? Probably she's still unconscious there but since he can't see that, maybe he should shout------NO. It's about 30mins since his fall, so enemy reinforcements may arrive anytime soon, as such he can only go up there. He initially thinks ghe's unlucky for falling into here, but afterwards his mind changes: if not falling into the pit they may be squished to bits by the copter, and if they've fallen into here together, how will she become without the impactproof AS pilot suit?
Using the pipes hanging around he climbs up for about 3 floors in height, but he can't go up any further so he better leaves this vault and find another way. Junping into a square hole nearby, he continue to walk deeper within the ruins, searching for ladders that can bring him back to the falling point. Because the carbine may be broken, he better use his own Glock19 for now, and try to fire his carbine when enemy comes along to avoid detection. Advancing in the lack-of-maintainence passages, turning for a few times, checking the actually-bare rooms on the way, and finally reaching a ladder in a passage......
------With Leonard Testarosa standing in front of it.
teh large pic for this scene
Wearing a red cape in front of his AS pilot suit, with his old silver hair, carrying his Colt Peacemaker (IIRC the gun that hurt his head in MMD), and though his face is covered by NVG but it's so obvious that it's him.
Without any question nor hesistation Sousuke fires, but it's simply blocked by his red cape (which is an bulletproof cloak), and also the subsequent shots. Leonard comments that his way of greeting people is still unchanged, and fires his pistol. Sousuke barely dodges the shot by hiding in a hole nearby, then unloads his entire clip, which are probably either all missed or blocked. Leo then says that he'll be stunned by his quick temper, but Sousuke thinks he's the one that just good at bluffing since he chose not to ambush him......What can your cloak do against Full Metal Jacket bullets (all army-use bullets are these)? He switches his carbine and fires, but the shot goes off-target at the same time when Leo dodges the shot. He continues to fire when Leo soon fires back. The targetor seems to be off for a little right, but the rest of teh gun seems fine. The situation then become a chasing fight in a big room which stores lots of containers and appliances.
Sousuke then thinks about the situation. Leo's using a NVG, and he's a torch, which will be a huge disadvantage......But no. He can't win him now is because Leonard is tough: Those reacting speed, accruacy, calm actions, seems unconsidered but they're through correct thoughts at different positions, these aren't an ordinary person can achieve, no matter they're gifted or by training. Before this he always think he's a weak guy protected by technology, but now it may be wrong. Leo then tease him about his own ability, saying that he has to work harder since he can't win on an AS. Though not contacted for many times, Sousuke thinks his actions should be softer than these (obviously he doesn't know what changes him or he's acting), so he says Leo seems to become ruder than before. In return Leo says it's necessary for building better relations with him, and fires his gun at his position. ("With your dead body the relation can become better" and Leo praises his words) Start from the gunfight 3+ mins has been passed, if Leo's units arrive it'll be bad for him, so Sousuke has to determine either leaving or continue......But before he can make a decision, the enemy infantry indeed arrives. However, Leo tells them to go back since they come without his order, nevertheless the men starts to fight with Sousuke. They seems trained well by their supporting attacks and aimed for killing, and can still keep calm even one of them dies, but their patterns are boring so they shouldn't have been teamed up for too long. At the predicted position one man jumps out. He's killed, but he throws out a grenade......
BLAM. It's an Incendiary Grenade, which is lethal within a room. Though Sousuke himself is fine, but those spilled liquids suddenly start burning and leads to a serious chain reaction (skipped this part) that shakes the entire floor and room, and Sousuke can't continue to fight but can only dodge around.
Gunshots and explosions shakes the ceiling where Chidori's gang are walking. Tessa guesses it's Sousuke there who met enemy when searching for her------Chidori has heard everything from the crash of copter and their separation, and when she wanders around finding him she met up with Chidori and Lemon. How cna Chidori calm down when she knows Sousuke is that close? She tries to kick away the feeling of "leaving the team and find him by herself" and reasserts herself that she'll be lost if going alone, btu on her emotional side she doesn't want to accept this: She wants to see him at once. She won't be lost either, when she shouts his name repeatedly she'll find him first before she was found by the enemy------such idiotic thoughts will emerge no matter how hard she doesn't want to. Explosions comes just when she's thinking about these, so she immediately suggests the gang to find Sousuke first. But Tessa hesistates, saying that the explosion means enemies are around, and with Lemon's legs are hurt they can't escape in case of being seen by enemy. Chidori insists that they can't leave him alone and wants to see him, and even Tessa starts to argue with her about their safety, she can't cool down and even shouts out she'll go finding him alone......Until Lemon grabs hold of her arms, saying that all will be lost if doing things recklessly. She finally realizes the fact and apologizes, and Tessa says that she also bear responsibility for the mess right now, and understands her actions for him being so close------Chidori suddenly feels guilty for her brainless and selfish words, since that Sousuke-liking Tessa is still enduring all these kind of stuff while she just want to do things for herself, and she stands the position of her she may just scold the opposite one. Lemon tells them to move after cooling down, and try to escape from the enemy, get to the ground level to get contact with friendly forces, leaving Sousuke alone------due to the fact that he'll be lots easier to move without them, and will eventually escape for contacting friendly units, so trying to find him may lead to loss of both sides. No matter how weak he seems to be, Lemon is still an experienced guy so it's better to listen to his advice. In this case, Chidori finally gives up and follows Tessa's lead to the north, which they'll go deep into the facility to teh research complex and escape fom there (they may also have less chance to meet with the enemy). After they start walking from teh crossroad, Lemon suddenly smiles, saying that it'll be awesome for being stick between 2 beautiful female if he's not injured. (......) Chidori then asks if they can leave him here, while Tessa agrees and stated that he can still say his last words. Lemon quickly apologizes and the three gets moving.
Trapped. After escaping from the burning scene and wanders around, Sousuke comes up with this conclusion. There're debris blocking the ways everywhere, for once he wants to use C4 to blow up for a way, but there're some gas flowing around that may cause another explosion if using firearms. With caution he tries to make way back to the previous room, but the way is blocked as well. Fire has been diminishing there, and though they're still oxygen around, he just can't stay here forever. Especially on Tessa's side: With enemies around she may had been caught, and though they may not kill her at once due to her identity as Leonard's sister, he can't leave this matter alone. Should he get out and rally with Kurz? Using Laevatein and with Kurz's backup they may get her back, and it's lots better than using a damaged carbine to face lots of enemies even though he's uncertain about if he can beat Verial. But if she hasn't been caught? Still it's better to rally with Kurz in order to clear this ruin from enemies in order to search within this huge maze with colleagues, though he's also not sure about if it can be done......
Leonard, undamaged and even seems not touching a piece of dirt, emerges from a corner in front of him. Both of them raised their guns at another at the same time, but both resisted from firing. Leonard says he seems also noticed how dangerous the environment can be------those flowing around are alike rotten onions, which can be LPG------and Sousuke replies that it may not explode. He can headshoot Leo at this distance, but it's teh same for him. Leo urges him to try, and while Sosuuke agrees it's attractive to do so, Leo comments that he's trying to move closer to him, knock him down in melee and use a knife to cut his throat......And while it's a fact (and Sousuke feels certain that he can win), Leo adds taht he's also prepared for that, and pointed his knife towards him: a Spetsnaz knife. (designed for Soviet Special Forces, it has a strong catapult that can fire the knife itself to the enemy, at a force that can penetrate a Yellow Pages 10m away) Once Sousuke sees this thing he feels screwed immediately: his AS pilot suit can protect him fron knife attacks but NOT this kind of assault weapons, if hit he'll be dead or heavily injured, won't spark an explosion AND at such distance he can hardly miss. He's thinking about of taking him down if dodging the first shot, but Leo states that he know what he's thinking: Sousuke is a kind of person that will try to kill enemy with every means without thinking about negotiations. He denies the need for doing so, but Leo adds that both of them are trapped here, and in about 2 hours the flowing LPG will suffocate or poison them, so in any way they'll die......
Except for one way. After his wandering he finds a staircase blocked by debris, and by the cooperation of both of them they may escape. Sousuke wonders if it's a ceasefire, and Leo nods that whoever wins may just be heavily injured, and either of them in that state can't do such a job, so they can just help each other for now and escape before having another duel. Leonard isn't lying nor bluffing, stuff about gas or escapign way are also true, and so is the fact that both will die without ceasefire......Sousuke finally agrees about it for the sake of escaping, though he's not going to forgive him. Both of them put down weapons at once, and while Leonard proposes a handshaking Sousuke just dislike that and leave.
Amalgam forces under the command of Solid Snake (Uh, Kalinin) has not suppressed------or just say secured------the town since there're no enemies around. He also lands and checks the leftover of the copter-landing from another faction, then sees that there're 2 people getting into the ruins and later predicts it's Sousuke and Tessa (full name written) going in there. Both of them may just beneath the factory, and Leonard may had also noticed that: he went into the factory alone and loses contact. 4 men sent for scouting also lot contact after reporting there're gunfires, so they probably are killed by Sousuke. A few minutes later his subordinates sent reports that support his view: explosions and fire had occured in places away from crash sites, a survivor has been foudn and said that the French and Chidori Kaname are still alive. Leonard, Sousuke and rest of the guys are nowhere to be found. Something must had happened underground, so he propably need to divert half of his forces to search in there......but because of déjà vu he doesn't want to send his units too close to there. Casper (on Eligor) then says that he can handle anyone that get close on the ground, so Kalinin lead a few men to descend into the ruins.
Elsewhere, probably because of good leading, the three haven't meet a single enemy on their way, though it's so simple that they're just moving away beneath the point where the enemy are. Chidori understands the plan of going deep and escape from there, but she still feels uneasy about this. She asked many times if the way is correct (and partly because of déjà vu), and while Tessa answers it she seems worrying about something else other than the route (since she's still confidient about her planning), and when Chidori asks if she's thinking something else she suddenly stops, saying that she has a place where she'll go on her own and urge them to get away first, and both of them are shocked about this, since going on her own will be very dangerous. Tessa says it's OK, since her coming is for
this issue
, and she cna't leave this behind when she finally comes here. Both of them want to follow her, but she doesn't want to because it's an important job that can be finished on her own. Her answer is so vague that as if she knows something but hides them from their faces------or probably just Lemon's since he's a member of DGSE that may leak something to them if he hears about the secret of this ruins. Lemon seems to know about it and asks if those can't be told to him, and Tessa can't reply. He then states that it's him and Wraith who bear the risks of investigating about this secret city without question even they knew nothing about details, all because of her direct request. "Now I've been such a bad shape, and we don't know if Wraith is alive or not. Even so, you still can't tell us the truth. Is it?" When Tessa tries to say anything, Lemon states that his identity shouldn't be a problem since DGSE should have fired him for no communication with them for so long.
Then Tessa continues that her concerns are far more than that: this issue isn't teh Security Protection of a single country can solve, and if being dealt without care all people's lives and fates will be toyed. Lemon thinks she's is overestimating it, but she says that if one knows all about the secret of this ruin, almost no one can resist teh want of using such power: except herself, Chidori and Sousuke, who're all being toyed by the secret within the ruins (so tehy're those who're involved), but she's uncertain about Lemon's will for such resistance. He's still confused but Chidori understand it, still he wonders if it's the concern of consficating this power along by himself, and Tessa agrees taht it's the problem, and that's why she urges them to move on first. Lemon says it's difficult, and pulls out his pistol which scares Chidori to no end......but he hands the pistol to Tessa instead, saying that she can shoot him if anything starts to go wrong, since he wants to die with everything known under such condition that survivability is uncertain. She's now troubling over this issue: Lemon seems to be a honest man up till now, but who can tell if he's just acting and my backstab them at any time? In the end she chooses to trust him due to no other choices, but states that she'll really shoot him, at least she'll try her best to. She then turns to Chidori and says taht she was about to tell her about this, or Leonard may tell her about this since he brings her to here, but when Chidori asks abotu it she stops talking and starts moving.
The odd cooperation continues in teh darkness, but after 15mins they can only make a steel pipe move for a little (after removing those debris aroudn the pipe). Both of them have just speak for necessity, and neither of them becomes careless that they continue the stances of able to pull out knives at will in case either of them may changh their mind------since they're still enemies. Leonard then starts to become bored of a single, boring job, while Sousueke tells him not to halt and so he goes back to work. He has those skills and are strong in physical strength, but in the end it seems strange for such a noble-pretending person to do these harsh works. Maybe because of the boredom, Leo asks about if Sousuke worry about Tessa in case she's here, since he won't come here alone so the one who really have things to do will be her. Since it seems that Amalgam didn't catch her, and there're no reason to tell him about the objective here, Sousuke replies taht he doesn't know and doesn't want to answer, and after throwing a big piece of cement downstairs Leo asks how will he think if he hears taht Chidori Kaname is here, and at once Sousuke's works suddenly stops. He asks him if he brought her to here, but instead Leo teases him not to stop working and laughs. Sousuke has to suppress his anger and continue to work, while Leo says that she's in the copter that fell into the vault, which then exploded and burnt because of attacks from their side. In a short moment his back goes cold, but soon h ethinks he's just lying: he can't be that calm if Chidori's really dead, or at least laughing there. Leo then adds that he's stating the fact from the view of his AS cockpit, and it's unknown how's she after the crash. Sousuke still doubts him, and Leo comments that it's good to ask "how can he talk so calmly if it's true". The two then finally pulls out the steel pipe, and Leonard continues his speech about her: She really was in the copter, he didn't save her, and teh copter blew up. Even so, he really believes that she's still alive (which Sousuke doesn't understand why he tell him these and his belief in her survival), which he really experienced before.
Back to the days before he wrecked havoc in Hong Kong (DBD/TSR), she was assaulted by a killer from Gauron in Tokyo, and he observed the whole thing going somewhere else. Think about it: a killer trained by Gauron, versus a female student whose sport senses are above average, she'll be dead no matter how she struggles, but instead she was saved. Sousuke thinks it's because of luck, but Leo stresses it's some sort of
luck (hinting something in his words). The killer is using guns from the start, but the first shot missed and jammed the gun, so she could escape at that moment. (As a sidenote, Sousuke seems never knew the whole picture from Chidori, only about the mini-AS Alastor, and chatted with Leo for a little......At least he doesn't know what Leo did to her, meh.) Sousuke then counters that autopistols are tend to malfunctioning, but then Leonard asks him what he'll do when he has to use the pistol to assassinate someone------checking if the gun's working properly and if the bullets are in good state, since killing someone will be lots harder due to resistance if teh first shot missed, so everyone including the killer will prepare for one-shot kill carefully------but the bullet still missed and the gun jammed. Such luck is bodering on the side of impossible, and while Sousuke thinks he's insane for her survival in the crash, Leonard asks him further that how many crises she met that she survived even under the most impossible scenerios. Sousuke can't deny the fact that what he says is true: since they met they lived through many crises together, and some of them even make this "specialist" shurddered. Putting these into account, it's impossible of pure luck------he won't deny teh factor of luck, but in the end it's just an adding factor, so her survival really depends on her hardworking actions and her strong will of never giving up. Excluding the factor of being a Whispered, Chidori Kaname is just stronger than most of the population. Leonard agrees that she has outstanding willpower and physical ability, but he thinks Sousuke can also consider that such capability given to her is also because of her luck. He obviously disagrees, because there're billions of people that have a good environment and enough abilities to live peacefully till their death. Leonard says it's probably a joke, but her survival isn't luck, it's
"She is the crossing point of reasons and results. We can say she is here because the world has become abnormal, or we can say the world becomes abnormal because of her presence. After these she------even without my guidence------will meet the Dead Spirits in the deepest part of this 'relic'. There she will merge with the power to put the history to a halt, and becomes the 'waystone' to create a world that without the past, present and the future."
"It's ridiculous. What are you talking about?"
"Stuff about Omni-Sphere and 'Whispers'. The chaos of the world begins from this place."
Obviously ,hope is the first step to the road of disappointment.
But no fear, people can only overcome disappointment when one still has hope in the mind.
So keep on fighting UNTIL THE GOAL IS REACHED!!

Disclaimer: I don't own Dragon Rage.
Given that Dragon Rage was not one of the high-budget games, some things weren't really expanded on, like the pasts of the characters. Cael especially, considering that he's the protagonist. The only 'reason' that he was executed was supposedly because of the disdain the orcs have for the dragons, but I get the feeling there was something more than that. After all, no one just rises up to the challenge of heading a war overnight, no matter how abused your race is.
He had started out as the offspring of one of the few dragons left that remained free. He didn't remember the specifics of those first few years of his life very well, but he knew where it all went wrong.
The orcs came, and they took his parents away, and shipped him off to work in their mines.
His memory hazed on the exact specifics of the day, but that's the earliest he could go to remember when he had first had the collar of slavery clasped around his neck. It was standard for all dragons pressed into service. He was different from the other dragons that were stuck in the mines with him. They were dull-eyed, hopeless, while he was sharper in mind, and never let a thing about the world around him escape his notice.
He immediately swore he would never let the orcs strip his life away from him, or his mind. This might have been when he remembered life before slavery, but he wanted to watch the Orc Empire, the one built on the backs of his kind, burn and break into pieces. He wanted the dragon race to be free of their tyranny. However, he saw no way of going about it that did not end in a horrible and pointless death. He knew the other dragons would take some convincing if they were to back the idea, if even take a note of interest in it. Him dying to free them certainly would not inspire confidence.
Despite his angry thoughts, Cael kept his head down, simply observing and waiting for an opportunity to get a one-up on those who held him as a slave. It must have been around there that he forgot everything before the mines. Still, the idea of freedom was enough to keep his mind sharp, and churning with ideas. They may have been able to take his freedom away, but they would not strip him down like they did the others, he wouldn't allow it.
He thought he had found a handhold in another dragon, one like him, who remembered freedom, and wanted to fight for it. Runen. Red, oriental, and with a sense of determination about him that nothing seemed to be able to break, he had caught Cael's respect, and mild admiration, after their first meeting. It only grew when he was told that they were trying to build some kind of resistance against their orc masters. So far, it was just the two of them, but Runen said he knew more that would be willing to help.
A whole week have gone by, during which Cael could practically feel the fresh air wafting under his wings, imagine what it would be like when he finally got out of the hot, damp darkness of the mines. Just to see the sun would be welcome now.
The night when they would make contact with the other rebels came far too delayed for Cael, and he followed Runen back to their group's cave for the night, watching the entering crowd of another group carefully. Some of the caves had been demolished in an accident, so they were being stuck with the other digging groups to compensate. They all seemed to have the same dull, downtrodden expression, though he supposed that was the mark of a smart slave; to be able to hide whether or not you would be a problem. Once everyone had settled down for the night, Runen and Cael had ended up next to a trio of dragons, a blue, green, and yellow. The inert looks immediately swept away from all, and Cael saw the clear, bright spirits underneath. They were indeed similar to him and Runen.
However, the orcs had caught them speaking with one another, and, even to this day, Cael could remember the words they had said as they had zapped their group into unconsciousness.
"These ones are independent, and that makes them dangerous. They shall be used as sacrificial dragons; it is the only way to be sure they are taken care of."
When he had woken up again, it was dark, and he was in a wagon, muzzled and bound. The orc vehicle rocked as it went over the uneven terrain, sending him into the sides enough to hurt. By the time he got to the place where they sacrificed his kind, he was sore all over. The drizzling rain was felt for only a moment before they shocked him back into oblivion.
This was it, everything was over.
That's not true, Cael.
Hmm? Who was that? An orc? It didn't sound like one. The voice was much more sonorous compared to the guttural sibilants of his masters.
You can escape your fate Cael, but in order to escape, you must learn.
The sudden flapping of wings filled his ears, his wings. Opening his eyes, he found himself in the air over a barren landscape, wings beating powerfully. The sky was cloudy, and Cael felt a flicker of disappointment at the fact that the sun wasn't out. The voice went on to explain that the world he was in was just a construct, that none of it was technically real.
But he would see the sun again; feel the air rushing over his wings.
He would survive, persevere, and learn if he had to.
Anything to be free.
That's all, folks. Reviews are greatly appreciated, but not manditory.

The routine was hilarious, involved the use of many of our audience members (which made it all the more entertaining) and his ESP/mind reading bits were amazing! Everyone had a great time and after all the kudos for choosing him as our entertainment I felt like a star! I would absolutely recommend Denny More for any event and would definitely use him again!

By DAN KARELL
For the eleventh time in club history, Barcelona have won the Spanish Super Cup.
The Catalan club on Wednesday played ten-man Atletico Madrid to a scoreless draw at the Camp Nou, winning the title on away goals after a 1-1 result in the Vicente Calderon Stadium in Madrid. The match marked the first time as well that Lionel Messi started alongside Neymar since Barcelona acquired the Brazilian this summer.
Messi nearly gave the hosts the lead in the ninth minute when Sergio Busquets played a beautiful ball into his stride, but Atletico Madrid's Felipe Luis made a goal-saving sliding tackle to help his goalkeeper collect the ball. The visitors had a solid chance on goal as well in the 34th minute when Arda Turan got around Gerard Pique and fired a shot on goal that was saved by Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes.
Felipe Luis was sent off ten minutes from time, making their efforts to win the cup even more difficult. They were shown a bit of luck when, even after conceding a penalty in the 88th minute, Messi hammered his penalty kick off the crossbar. Despite the miss, Barcelona held on to the scoreline to give Gerardo "Tata" Martino his first title in charge of the club.
Here are some more stories to get your Thursday started:
Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola could be without one of his key cogs in central midfield come Friday's UEFA Super Cup against Chelsea in Prague, Czech Republic.
Bastian Schweinsteiger limped off in the 79th minute of Bayern's 1-1 draw on Monday at SC Freiburg with an ankle injury, and it's unknown whether he'll be fully fit to face the Blues. The club have said that it's only a sprained ankle and that he will travel to Prague, but Guardiola might not want to risk further injury by playing him against Chelsea.
The annual cup match between the winners of the UEFA Champions League and Europa League this season pits Bayern Munich against Chelsea, with Guardiola facing his old rival Jose Mourinho from their days at Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively.
Samuel Eto'o is set to reunite himself with former boss Jose Mourinho.
The striker is nearing a move on a free transfer to Chelsea, according to reports in England, ready to sign a one-year deal with the London club. Eto'o was previously the highest-paid soccer player in the world at Anzhi Makhachkala in Russia, earning what Forbes reported was nearly $29 million.
Since the start of August, the management at Anzhi have had a change of heart and they've decided to dramatically slash the payroll and roster, meaning that highly paid players like Eto'o or the other new Chelsea signing, Willian, would be on their way out of the club.
Eto'o was one of the stars on Mourinho's 2010 UEFA Champions League winning Inter Milan team. That season, the former African Player of the Year scored 16 times on their way to winning Europe's crown. In 2011, Eto'o moved to Anzhi from Inter, which he had joined in 2009 from Barcelona.
While the Gareth Bale move to Real Madrid has stalled over the course of the summer, it hasn't stopped Tottenham from bringing in replacements and improving the squad in all areas.
The latest player to be on his way to White Hart Lane is Ajax attacking midfielder Christian Eriksen, who is reportedly discussing personal terms with the London club. According to reports in Holland, Ajax and Tottenham have already agreed a transfer fee. The reports also state that due to Tottenham's financial power, they can offer him a contract worth three times as much as Ajax could offer, making it an easy decision for the Danish international to leave.
Sky Italia is reporting that the three latest players to be signing with Spurs, Erik Lamela of AS Roma, Vlad Chiriches of Steaua Bucureste, and Eriksen will all undergo medicals in London on Thursday before they complete their deals.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger received some bad news on Thursday that winger/forward Lukas Podolski would most likely miss eight to ten weeks with his hamstring injury. (REPORT)
17-year-old PSV starlet Zakaria Bakkali has been selected to the Belgium squad to face Scotland on September 6. If he features, he'll be tied to Belgium for the rest of his career, despite having a Moroccan passport as well. (REPORT)
Celtic FC are about to sign Israel U-21 captain Nir Biton from FC Ashdod. (REPORT)
Schalke 04 have been given encouraging news that new signing Adam Szalai has only suffered bruising in his right hand and that there is no fracture. (REPORT)
What do you think of these reports? Were you left disappointed by Barcelona's lack of scoring on Wednesday? How much of an impact will Schweinsteiger's loss be if he can't play? Do you see Chelsea starting Eto'o or is he more of a depth signing? What does this mean for Demba Ba and Fernando Torres?
Share your thoughts below.
I'm sorry, but I think the away goals rule is stupid. A 1-1 tie and a 0-0 tie gives Barca the win because the 1-1 draw happened at Madrid? Congratulations on your draws. I would rather just go straight to penalties in this situation.
Disagree. Penalties are random, you might as well flip a coin. At least the away goals encourages teams to attack away from home.
jim in Atlanta
Penalties are random? Who knew.
Away goal winning a trophy is stupid no matter how you slice it
jim in Atlanta
I just realized who posted that comment. I've been on the internets far too long to be so careless about who/what I feed.
away goals
That's one interpretation. The other is that it forces the home team to play ultra defensive. Especially in the first leg.
couldnt agree less. Away goals are hard to come by, as are any points on the road. In situations like these, it's a great tie breaker, AND, makes the games far more exciting/interesting. Look at the Celtic game.
And, anyone advocating for MORE use of PKs shouldn't be taken seriously
Why even play the games? Just go straight to PKs
Extra time, then more extra time. Then extra subs.
I also hate away goals, because… no one won. Its a tie…. You are not better than them, so why do you "win"
I agree. Goals are goals, doesn't matter where they happen.
Wenger for the love of god please buy someone you twit and Flamini does not count. Spurs have bought about 5 quality players this summer, we have bought nothing.
Magical Red Card in the AZ game. I mean it was a foul but… just a pretty standard somewhat bad challenge. Nothing special or nasty about it.
They just got jobbed by the Ref.
"Ajax and Tottenham have already agreed a transfer fee". There is a word missing here, otherwise it doesn't make any grammatical sense.
Looks like the AZ Alkmaar and Atromitos game was abandoned due to a techinal fire inside the AZ stadium. They may recommence tomorrow morning
what if FIFA changed the rules in league play so a draw is worth 0 points and a loss is worth -1 point. I bet we would see more attacking soccer.

This followed complaints of poor care by two women treated at the IVF expert's Wimpole Street clinic, the most successful clinic in London.
One alleged that he sent her home with a life-threatening condition without investigating her symptoms. Legal papers also claimed he pressurised the second woman into having "controversial" tests costing £900.
However, the case against the millionaire was thrown out today at the halfway stage due to lack of evidence.
A disciplinary panel ruled that his fitness to practice as a doctor was not "impaired".
Egyptian-born Dr Taranissi, 53, said he was "delighted" at the outcome, but told the Standard that he may leave Britain to escape negative publicity. He has always strongly denied the claims against him and had been due to give evidence in his defence next week.
The doctor, who runs the Assisted Reproduction and Gynaecology Centre, said: "The fact is I didn't even have to defend myself in this case because it was stopped halfway through. It's for other people to say whether I've been made a scapegoat.
"I just want to focus on my work I've got a job to do. I'll always be grateful for the support I've had. Sometimes it does get to you and over the next couple weeks I'll be thinking about my future carefully.
"I know I'm not a standard type of guy but I don't want to spend the rest of my life having to fight people."
This is the second victory in weeks for the IVF expert whose fortune is estimated at more than £38 million. Last week, the High Court ordered the BBC to pay him half a million pounds in costs in an ongoing libel action.
The BBC withdrew part of its defence over a Panorama programme which allegedly made defamatory allegations about his techniques.
Many patients view the IVF expert as a "baby god" for helping them to become parents. Almost two-thirds of them have babies, nearly double the national average, and he is responsible for 188 births a year. But others see him as a maverick because of the way he runs his clinics.
Fertility watchdog the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority investigated him last year over claims that one of his clinics, the Reproductive Genetics Institute, was operating without a licence.
It is understood that case has been settled in his favour.

If a substance has physical health side-effects (and this includes anything you smoke, like marijuana), then it should remain illegal.
I only ask for a scientific approach to assessing new substances:-Is it so addictive that it will lead to unreasoning behaviour where the victim will do risky things that no rational person would choose to do? I include things here like starving your children to get more drugs, robbing people in the street, sharing needles, etc.Does it have adverse health effects if consumed in sensible quantities? Does it have health benefits?What is a sensible quantity?Does it have health effects on others? How can we limit this? This may mean banning it from certain activities like driving or flying.Does it have economic effects on others (positive or negative)? If negative, this may mean that it becomes fair grounds for dismissal from work - and even dismissal from unemployment and health benefit schemes.Sugar and aspirin certainly should be subject to the same considerations!...In the absence of getting informed consent from the entire population, governments must make an informed choice on behalf of the population - hopefully informed by some objective evidence.
With what we know now, tobacco could not be declared "safe for human consumption" by smoking. I heard that a study of cancers in bodies from archaeological sites showed a similar incidence to today's population - except for an excess of lung cancer in modern populations, which was attributed to smoking. I haven't seen the same evidence for less-popular modes like chewing or snorting tobacco.
Problem drug use and drug harm is a small percentage of overall drug use.
QuoteProblem drug use and drug harm is a small percentage of overall drug use.A statistic quoted on the "Addiction" episode of Naked Neuroscience is that about 20% of humans (and laboratory rats) will become addicted to a given substance.That is not a particularly small percentage.

Dhaka, June 6: India and Bangladesh on Saturdsay opened a new chapter in their ties as they settled the 41-year-old boundary dispute and promised to do more in other areas amid Prime Minister Narendra Modi's announcement of a fresh line of credit of USD 2 billion to the neighbouring country.
With West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee standing by his side, Modi, on his maiden visit here, also expressed confidence to have a "fair solution" to the Teesta and Feni river water sharing issues with Bangladesh "with the support of state governments in India".
After extensive talks between Modi and Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the two sides signed 22 agreements, including on cooperation in maritime safety and to curb human trafficking and fake Indian currency.
Hasina, whose country is seen as a hiding ground for insurgents of north east India, also promised "zero tolerance" stance against terrorism. She said the two countries agreed to set up two Special Economic Zones to bridge the growing trade deficit.
Modi promised to do "everything" to address it. He announced a fresh USD 2 billion line of credit for Bangladesh and promised quick implementation of the earlier line of credit of USD 800 million and full disbursement of USD 200 million.
The highlight of the Modi's first day here was the exchange of documents related to the Land Boundary Agreement (LBA), which paves the way for exchange of territories to settle the 41-year-old border dispute which has been an irritant.
Also read: India, Bangla seal historic Land Boundary Agreement
Under the Agreement, 111 border enclaves will be transferred to Bangladesh in exchange for 51 that will become part of India.
"The visit is at a historic moment. We have resolved a question that has lingered since Independence. Our two nations have a settled boundary. It will make our borders more secure and people's life there more stable," Modi said at a joint press interaction with Hasina.
Referring to the unanimous passage of the LBA by Parliament last month, he said it "reflects the consensus in India on relations with Bangladesh."
Noting that the two countries had accepted the settlement of the maritime boundary last year, he said, "it is evidence of the maturity of our ties and our shared commitment to international rules.
So, we stand at a moment of huge opportunity in our relationship. Prime Minister (Hasina) and I recognise that."

text: SPRINGFIELD, Ill., July 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Horace Mann Educators Corporation (NYSE: HMN) estimates its financial impact from weather-related catastrophe activity during the three months ended June 30, 2012 will total $28 million to $30 million before tax (approximately $0.44 to $0.47 per share after tax). This range includes the estimated incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses from 13 catastrophe events that occurred during the quarter, the most significant being a prolonged stretch of severe weather in the central and eastern U.S. that occurred at the end of June. The events also included hail and other storm activity in late April and in the month of May. The company's catastrophe losses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $55.0 million before tax, or $0.90 per share after tax. "The significant weather-related claims from the severe storm system at the end of June, combined with a number of less costly weather events in April and May, resulted in a level of catastrophe losses significantly higher than our expectations," said Peter H. Heckman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "As always, Horace Mann clients can be assured that we are here to help them through the claims process and will make every effort to ensure timely and equitable claims settlements." "Excluding catastrophes, underlying earnings, in total, continue to meet our expectations in 2012; however, as a result of the significant level of catastrophe losses in the quarter, we are lowering our estimate of full-year 2012 net income before realized investment gains and losses to between $1.55 and $1.75 per share from our previously estimated range of $1.80 to $2.00 per share," stated Heckman. "This estimate assumes that catastrophe losses for the remaining six months of the year will be in a more normal range -- consistent with our initial expectations." Webcast Conference Call

eastward ho information please
Hello, I''m looking for information on the Eldridge McInnis designed 24'' Eastward HO built by Portsmouth Yachts. I may have some of that confused. Information regarding construction and reputation would be very helpful. Thanks. Eric
eastward ho information please
I vacationed in the mid 60s as a kid on an Eastward Ho in Long Island. Childhood memories are great, but I''m certain the boat was slow (very very slow) However, six of us spent 2 weeks at at a time on a boat that was meant for 4 to be a crowd. I haven''t seen one in many years. Somewhere I remember seeing them newer and in fiberglass and also I believe they made a larger (31?) boat. Good Luck
Re: eastward ho information please
I have had the misfortune of having the mast for my Eastward Ho 24 destroyed by an excavator driving over it while it was laid up for the winter. Needless to say my sailing year is shot unless I can quickly source a new mast.
Does anyone out there know of the original manufacturer of the mast, or a company with the specs to have a new one made up?
Re: eastward ho information please

JOHOR BARU: The local council has been criticised as being high-handed for removing the graffiti in Taman Molek. Even the owner of the premises is annoyed.
The owner, who declined to be named, felt the painting had livened up the area and attracted more people there.
"It was packed the past few days as people took photos in various creative poses. This also happened at night," she said yesterday.
She added that although the painting was done without her permission, she did not mind and felt that it was very creative.
"It was such a waste of good talent," she said of the council decision.
She said she had not received any notice from the Johor Baru City Council regarding the removal of the art at the building that had been abandoned after a fire last year.
Malaysia Tourist Guides Council president Jimmy Leong described the move by the local authorities as too drastic, saying the graffiti could have been good for the state's tourism.
"In Penang, there is a painting of a boy looking through a small window into a bathroom. Do we brand it as promoting peeping toms?" he questioned.
Leong said it was good to have the city area painted with graffiti, especially on abandoned buildings, instead of covering them up with canvas.
Johor Jaya assemblywoman Liow Cai Tung said the painting created awareness among the community as it reflected the real situation of the state.
"We should face the fact and understand that our state has been recording a high crime rate," she said.
Meanwhile, Zacharevic's Facebook page has been abuzz with many Johoreans expressing their heartfelt regret, and Netizens have also slammed the council.
Facebook user Charlotte Chen apologised to Zacharevic for the council's action and expressed her disappointment, as she was unable to travel back to Johor Baru in time to take pictures with the art.
"I wanted to go home to view the art for myself, but it has now been removed," she said.
"Please come and contribute your artwork in Klang, Selangor. We welcome you here," said another user Kenny Teoh.
Zacharevic himself has criticised the drawing of the policeman and the whitewashing.
"This is real vandalism. Malaysia never fails to amuse me," he said of the addition to his graffiti. Later, he told his fans to stay calm after the council whitewashed his work along with the policeman who had been drawn in.
The Star Online's Facebook page also saw many protesting the council decision.
Hussein Zain said that the white paint represented the council's inefficiency.
"Why not do the same on the irritating Ah Long stickers and the embarrassing 'massage' ads?" said Hussein.
Phuah SK believes the mural would actually boost tourism in Johor as it did in Penang.
Leong Hoe Lam, or also known as Leo LHL, said the graffiti at Sg Klang near Pasar Seni looked very nice from the LRT trains.
"Who says graffiti is vandalism? Vandalism is when someone scribbles aimlessly on a property or pastes loan shark and viagra stickers," said Leong.
Napsiah Wan Salleh, however, had a different views. She said it was the MBJB's right to remove the mural.
"It was vandalism and it was also akin to a socio-political statement by the Lithuanian which seems out of place," she said.

Williamsburg Christian Academy senior and class valedictorian Caroline Nice didn't have an easy path to success through the years at the school. A quiet child and riddled with anxiety, WCA's faculty, staff and fellow students helped her overcome her challenges with clinical depression....her testimony is transcribed below, copied from her recent social media post:
"By God's grace I was honored to be the valedictorian of my tiny class at Williamsburg Christian Academy. I was incredibly touched by the strong feedback that I got from my speech on Saturday. I have decided to post it because I want as many people as possible to be able to read my testimony and to see what God has done in my life at WCA.
Never would I ever have thought that I would be standing here before you today. I know that sounds cliché, but I really do mean it. I remember being in Kindergarten at Rawls Byrd Elementary School and being the only kid in the class that didn't know how to hold a pencil. Thanks to pencil grips, I've been able to move on from that. Fast forwarding a couple years, to first, second, third grade, I was in the "yellow" group. Otherwise known as the lowest level reading and math group. I am very much a perfectionist, which I consider a gift and a curse, and this killed me knowing that I was the worst at something. I very much struggled with testing anxiety, as many younger children do that my heart goes out for. Not only did I struggle academically, but also socially.
I rarely spoke a word when I was at school. The other kids would ask me why I didn't talk. Why was I so quiet? I didn't know how to answer. With everything in me I wanted to be just like them but the words just wouldn't come out. I feared rejection. This internal struggle resulted in anxiety and depression starting at just seven years old. In school, the combination of social and academic stress made me physically sick. The teacher would make me stay at my desk with a bucket. I would carry this stress with me back home. Those who witnessed my quiet self at school would have no idea how awful I treated my family. The mental overload that I faced at school caused me to act out towards my mom, dad, and sister.
It wasn't until I came to Williamsburg Christian Academy in the fourth grade that I experienced real peace. The first time that one of my classmates picked up my pencil when I dropped it or held the door open for me I was shocked. When my teachers worked with me through my anxiety instead of tossing me a bucket or helped my mom cope with my behavior at home, I experienced the peace of God. I cannot stand here and say that everything about WCA has been perfect but it was where I needed to be and for that I am so grateful. Yes, I still have anxiety and yes, I still have my ups and downs but what I also have is the knowledge that I'll never be alone because of Jesus Christ and a support system that is so rooted in him.
My mom, many of you know her, did not want to have children because she didn't want them to be like her. You see, my mom has also struggles with anxiety and feared she would pass it on. I would not trade having clinical anxiety and depression for any other mom. My mom is my rock, my best friend and I strive to be just like her. She is beautiful and selfless and is the reason why I am who I am and have gotten this far.
My dad works harder than anyone I know. He truly does everything as if he is working for the Lord. Even though he tends to think that I am his son, bringing me to work with him, assisting him in yard work, and even demolishing the back porch once, I love him with all my heart. My dad has made abounding sacrifices for our family and selflessly gives to others. He is my role model, the reason why I have achieved such high academic honors. Although I am not going on to pursue a degree in engineering at Virginia Tech, his alma mater, I know he is proud of everything I do.
My sister, Ashley, is my best friend. What I thought was the "end of the world" this summer turned out to be the best thing that could have happened to me because as a result I grew so much more closer to her. After years of bickering, I have grown to adore my sister. I am going to miss you so much next year. I know you will be successful in everything you do and a blessing to everyone you come across. I know I am leaving you in good hands at WCA.
Zechariah 13:9 states, "This third I will put into the fire; I will refine them like fire and test them like gold. They will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say 'They are my people' and they will say, 'The Lord is our God.'" As I finish this year of restoration and reflection, I cannot think of a better life verse. God does not expect us to be perfect. God puts our imperfections through the fire so that we will come out as pure and beautiful as gold and silver. Williamsburg Christian Academy has been my refiner's fire for the past nine years. It is more than just a school. It is a place that refines young men and women, with grace and love, to get towards the person that God wants them to be. I have learned that God does not use us for our strengths, but for our weaknesses. I could be standing here before you today, talking about my academic achievement and honors, but instead I am talking to you about my anxiety and depression. The advice that I would give to my peers and to anyone in the crowd would be to not be scared of vulnerability. Vulnerability is what makes us human, what makes us real. God uses our vulnerability for his glory. Yes, my achievements are something to be proud of but they are dim in compare to the real work that God is creating within me and the work that he is creating within all of you.
I truly do care for each and every one of you and wish you the best in everything you do. Thank you."

Being clean on the inside is just as important as being clean on the outside, which is why doctors recommend that you eat at least one natural sponge a day. De-gunk your trunk with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $37 for one colon hydrotheraphy session (a $75 value)
- $109 for three colon hydrotheraphy sessions (a $225 value)
During the treatment, a licensed professional uses a purified system to infuse the colon with warm, filtered water, which then flushes waste out of the body. This process may also be assisted by light abdominal massage to help facilitate results, which include feelings of rejuvenation and cleanliness.
Click here for more information on colon cleansing.
Natural Wellness
At Natural Wellness, it's perfectly acceptable to spend an entire conversation discussing nothing but the human colon. That's because, according to their expert team, this final stage of the digestive system can be responsible for numerous health matters. During consultations, their staff will tell patients that a clogged colon may lead to constipation, hemorrhoids, and other problems across the body.
They address these issues through the process of colon hydrotherapy, the center's primary focus. The team sends purified water into the colon—often aided by a light abdominal massage—to clear out toxins and gas. They purify other areas of the body as well, seeping toxins from feet with ionic footbaths and sweating them out with an infrared sauna.

You gotta get this too!
This one is an excelent looking version that is nicely detailed. The weathering looks to be a bit less heavy than you can see in the promotional photos. The only negative I can give is to the seams. The joins are a bit too prominent where the two halves of the parts join, making those seams stand out too much. This shows mainly on the feet with the 'ankle' boxes.
The body is an R2 with different painted pannels, as in the movie. But I did a check of the Blu-ray and the blue R2 legs are almost iridescent in the daylight and quite bright in colour. The blue on these R5s is quite dark by comparison.
Overall great Sideshow quality.
Overall, it's a nice addition for Star Wars fans of the original movie. If you have the Hot Toys Tatooine Luke, Sideshow R2-D2, and upcoming Jawas on order, then I think R5-D4 would make for a great display with all of those characters.
The weathering perhaps could've been painted on a bit better, but if you like your Astromechs, then this should do nicely in the collection!

German Chancellor Angela Merkel will visit Turkey on Sunday for talks on the fight against terrorism, the civil war in Syria and the refugee crisis, her spokesman announced on Monday.
Merkel's visit comes after the attacks outside Ankara's main train station on Saturday that killed 97 people, which raised concerns in Western capitals over the stability of a key NATO ally neighboring Syria.
"As Chancellor has expressed in her condolence message to Prime Minister Davutoglu, this attack is a cowardly act directed against civil rights, democracy and peace," Steffen Seibert said at a press conference in Berlin.
The attack targeted left-wing and pro-Kurdish protestors who had gathered for a peace rally, and the investigation was focused on the terrorist organization Daesh as the primary suspect.

Udupi, May 4 (UNI) Former Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa said the BJP would write a letter today itself to the Chief Election Commission (CEC) urging to ban all types of pre-poll media surveys.
Addressing a press conference here, he said that he would urge the CEC to ban publishing of pre-poll surveys before the election.
The recent pre-poll survey by CNN-IBN was totally ''biased and baseless.'' The NDTV had also planned to publish a pre-poll survey, indicating that the Congress would get 120 to 130 seats while BJP's stake would be reduced to 60 to 65 seats and JD(S) would get only 20 or 25 seats in Karanataka Assembly.
The former Chief Minister said, ''I am in politics for the last 40 years and have been touring all Constituencies in the State since last two months. The response from the people all over the State was overwhelming and much above our expectation. Our party would definitely get majority seats in the Assembly and will form BJP Government in the State.'' Replying to the criticisms made by former Chief Minister M Veerappa Moily and senior Congress leader and Rajya Sabha member B Janardhan Poojary, Mr Yeddyurappa said, ''let them either prove the charges made against the BJP on destruction of Sri Ram temple at Ayodhya or robbing of Hundi offering. Why are they making false allegations against the party with the fear of defeat in the election,'' he wondered.
He alleged that both the Congress and the JD(S) had hatched conspiracy by withdrawing their candidates in Shikaripura, where he was seeking re-election, not only to defeat him but also to make the former Chief Minister and State Chief of Samajwadi Party, S Bangarappa, a scape goat, who too was contesting from there. Both the parties have also entered into secret seat understanding with Mr Bangarappa in other Constituencies, he added.
He said he would write a letter to Congress Chief Sonia Gandhi about the false charges and conspiracy hatched against BJP by the leaders of her party. He challenged that if the Congress leaders have grit, then let Mr S M Krishna, Mr Poojary, Mr Moily, Mr Jaffer Sherief, Mr Siddaramaiah and Mr Mallikarjun Kharge come on a single platform to discuss all the issues, instead of making false charges misleading the public. If the Congress party have courage, let them announce their captain (name of the Chief Minister candidate) before the election, he challenged.
Referring to the charges that the ban on liquor by the BJP-JD(S) coalition Government was the main cause for hike in the liquor price in the State, Mr Yeddyurappa said the prices have been hiked during the period of President Rule in the State.
He said the party was committed to set up a separate annual fund of Rs 100 crore for the developmental activities taken up by the temples in the State.
Mr Yeddyurappa also said both Mr Moily and Mr Poojary, representing Udupi and Dakshina Kannada, should retire from their political life if the BJP would capture ten out of 13 seats from the undivided Dakshina Kannada Constituency.

My Jeep is starting to either turn off after I either jump something or jerk it around too hard or hesitating. The carb seems to not give enough fuel or it's just not made for a jeep. What is a fix for this, obviously other that putting a fuel injection system($2k) in to this thing. I currently have a 750 Double Pumper Holly.

Penny the Pea.
Haha! We're out, finally! All the vegtables jump out of the cooler and towards the fruit, ready for a fight! I giggle. "This is so exciting!" I say to my friend Clover the carrot. She smiles at me then runs to join in the fight.
I'm small but I'mnot stupid! I know that if I join in unprepared, I'll get squashed. I look around and see a little plastic fork. I go over and pick it up.
"Okay, this isn't that heavey." I say, putting the fork above my head. "C'mon Penny!" Clover yells at me. I giggle and charge at a soft, small, peach. I stab her with my fork and she goes down. Hehe. I like this game!

Shed Your Winter Skin In Matoma's New Video
"Running Out" to watch
Photographed by Jimmy Fontaine
Even if you haven't heard of Matoma, you've probably been exposed to the producer's chart-climbing single, "Running Out." The tropical house jam, featuring Astrid S, is an out-of-left-field hit so infectious that—on top of his recent viral remix of The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Old Thing Back"—it has turned all eyes toward the Norwegian producer's full album, Hakuna Matoma. And if you, like his 1.5 million weekly streamers on Spotify, dig that track, we have some good news for you: The synthpop maestro is premiering a gorgeous music video right here.
Hakuna Matoma is what you might call a dynamic album, more akin to a playlist that never stops growing than a finished, polished product. So far, it features 12 of his most popular tracks. Matoma assured us that he will keep adding new music to ensure that the album gets bigger, better, and bolder as the year progresses. We're betting that the artist is on the same path.
