The RIPE NCC will move to a new office location in Amsterdam by mid-2016. We believe this move will make our organisation more efficient and will counter the limitations of our current location, solving a number of logistical challenges we've faced over the years. It will allow for an efficient work environment and will improve interaction and cooperation between departments. The new facility will offer greater flexibility to accommodate changes in function or occupancy. And we will realise lower recurring rental costs and maintenance fees over time. The result will be a comfortable, state-of-the-art and inspiring work environment that fosters health and productivity. The office is located at Stationsplein 5-7, adjacent to Amsterdam Centraal Station.

Ripoff Report
Decker Outlet CorporationNationwide United States of America
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
While checking my bank account on line this morning, I found an unusual charge for $191.25 from Deckers Outlet Corporation. Not knowing who or what this was I did a Google search and came across this site. After checking with other family members to see if they had made any purchases, and they did not, I immediately called my bank to report and unauthorized charge. My bank did a check to see where the charge had come from and to our surprise it was a purchase at a grocery store in China of all places. Since my bank can't stop the charge, it's still pending. I have to wait till the transaction clears the bank. Then the bank will credit me back the amount. They put a stop on my credit card and did a reissue for a new one. Good thing I check the bank this morning. And thank God for online banking. Bank of America was really helpful for this situation. And will be watching my accounts to see if anything else comes in from odd places.

We've got a ton of black squirrels in Kent. I used to live in Brimfield, which is a rural township right next to Kent and that shares Kent's postal codes. I would see these critters all the time, and boy are they ugly, they look more ratlike and scraggly than the grey squirrel. Here's a little background of how they got to Kent.ReplyDelete
I lived in Vancouver for a while. The squirrels are there for the nuts, who are in abundant supply.ReplyDeleteReplies

Gene, just be glad the Vancouver Canucks stink and were bounced out of the playoffs in the first round, because if they had made it to the second round and been swept by the Kings this past week then you'd currently been in the equivalent of a citywide meltdown. Case in point: pictures of post 2011 Stanley Cup Finals in Vancouver.Delete

Here comes yet another CC cream with claims that it offers color-correction and skin care. Now, before we get down to business, a little about CC creams and their counterpart BB creams. It's all about labeling to get consumers to buy a product thinking it's something new and different, nothing more. Generally, a BB cream from U.S. cosmetics brands is similar to a tinted moisturizer, while a CC cream is more like a liquid foundation, but not always. BB and CC creams typically provide sun protection, and may or may not include beneficial ingredients like antioxidants or skin-lightening agents. Neither BB nor CC creams are as revolutionary as they are made out to be, and there is certainly no consistency among products from different brands.
Physicians Formula says its fragrance-free CC cream will replace your anti-aging products, which is tempting (who doesn't want to use fewer products?), but we most certainly do not recommend you do that. This does not contain the blend of skin-repairing and cell-communicating ingredients that research has shown must be present to make an anti-aging product really effective. This does provide some vitamin-based antioxidants and offers broad-spectrum sun protection, so you will get some anti-aging benefits—which is more than we can say for many CC creams.
Where this CC cream truly excels is in its worth as a foundation. It has a lightweight, creamy consistency that's a dream to blend, with your fingers, a sponge, or a brush. It provides medium coverage of skin imperfections with an attractively natural, soft matte finish. Super CC+ also wears extremely well throughout the day, without emphasizing pores or wrinkles.
So far this only comes in two shades for light to medium skin tones, which is disappointing, although both look natural on their intended skin tones. If you fall into that range, this CC cream is definitely one to try - just don't throw your other anti-aging skin-care products out!
Active Ingredients: Titanium Dioxide 5.76%, Zinc Oxide 2.94%. Inactive Ingredients: Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Butylene Glycol, Dimethicone, Neopentyl Glycol Diheptanoate, Bis-PEG/PPG-14/14 Dimethicone, Cetearyl Alcohol, C30-45 Alkyl Cetearyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, PEG-10 Dimethicone, Sodium Chloride, Calcium Aluminum Borosilicate, Glycerin, Teprenone, Hydroxycapric Acid, Hydroxycaprylic Acid, Hydroxycinnamic Acid, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Caprylyl Glycol , Castor Oil Phosphate, Disodium EDTA, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Ethylhexylglycerin, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Hexylene Glycol, Laureth-12, Mica, PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone, PEG-4, Polysilicone-11, Polysorbate 60, Propylene Carbonate, Sodium Hydroxide, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Tin Oxide, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Xanthan Gum, Phenoxyethanol. May Contain: Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide.
Physicians Formula At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; almost all products fragrance-free; outstanding cleansers; pressed powder with broad-spectrum sunscreen; several bronzing powder options (primarily for fair to light skin tones); one of the only lines at the drugstore selling matte finish eyeshadows; the loose powder; most of the blushes; good liquid liner; excellent automatic brow pencil.
Weaknesses: Dated moisturizer formulas; several sunscreens lack sufficient UVA protection; jar packaging; several of the makeup products epitomize wasteful packaging; the shade selection for almost all the foundations and concealers is awful; tons of gimmicky products that don't perform as well as you'd think but are eye-catching in their compacts; the lip color and lip plumper; mostly average to disappointing mascaras; the Organic Wear products either have undesirable textures or contain irritating ingredients.
There aren't really any doctors at Physicians Formula (the founder of the company was an allergist, Dr. Frank Crandell, but that was back in 1937), and no physicians currently sell or endorse it either. The company asserts that "The term hypoallergenic is more than just a cosmetic claim for Physicians Formula. It is the basis for every product that is created. Physicians Formula honors this claim through stringent product testing and quality control. In fact, Physicians Formula products are formulated without 132 known irritating ingredients still found in many cosmetics on the market today." While the line doesn't list the "132 known irritating ingredients" that they claim not to use, one of their newer products contains menthol, which serves no purpose for skin other than to cause irritation, and other products contain alcohol and witch hazel, which won't make any cosmetic chemist's or dermatologist's list of anti-irritants.
It's good that the skin-care products have been streamlined. There are some excellent makeup removers and a couple of gentle sunscreens whose sole active ingredient is titanium dioxide. Surveying this line in its entirety reveals that makeup is its major focus. However, as you'll see from the Physicians Formula makeup reviews below, things aren't exactly rosy there, either.
For more information about Physicians Formula, call (800) 227-0333 or visit www.physiciansformula.com.
Physicians Formula Makeup
Does this assortment of makeup products have what the doctor ordered? The enormous selection of makeup (no other line at the drugstore sells more individual pressed powders, concealers, or powder bronzers) has seen some noteworthy improvements in recent years, but far too much of it is still built on gimmicky premises or eye-catching graphics while performance and texture are given short shrift. And for a line where just about every product carries on about its goodness for sensitive skin and the non-comedogenic nature of its ingredients, they're not using anything that other companies aren't also using, not to mention that many of the ingredients that show up in these products (such as waxes and occlusive thickening agents) can absolutely clog pores.
Still, for a line with increased retail presence in major drugstores, you may be wondering just what to pay attention to, and the good news is that there are indeed some finds among all the mosaic powders and oddly packaged concealers. Physicians Formula has never done foundations and concealers well, and for the most part that still holds true today. Only one of their concealers is recommended, while the others are best described as dismal. The expansive powder category has several attractive options, including a pressed powder with sun protection and many worthwhile bronzing powders. You'll also find best beauty buys among the blushes and other key products, including the matte eyeshadows, felt-tip eyeliner, brow pencil, and a few of the mascaras. There isn't anything medical or extra-pure about Physicians Formula makeup, but if you know what to look for and are on a budget there are some products that any doctor concerned with the subject of beauty would appreciate!
Note: The shade range of this line does not cater to darker skin tones. In fact, for some products, only those with fair to light skin will find options.
The Beautypedia and Paula's Choice Research teams have one mission: To help you find the best products for your skin, whether they're from Paula's Choice or another brand. By combining efforts, we're able to share scientific research and remain committed to the highest standards based on our decades of experience objectively reviewing thousands upon thousands of skincare and makeup formularies in all price ranges.
Beautypedia cuts through the hype to bring you product insights and recommendations you won't find anywhere else!

A excellent place to stay when you are in Berlin, a place were you feel like home and a very caring and welcoming atmospher. Joasha is a wonderful and very helpful host. I really enjoyd my stay in this beatuiful appartment wich have really a soul and a nice creative sense to it. I wish to return when im in Berlin again.
The house/appartment is situated in a calm area close to Ernst reuter platz, Close to the busstop for the bus x9 for Airport tegel, and very Close to the U-bahn/metro, from here you can easily explore the city.
My warmest recommendation
wonderfull gem in a typical charming berlin building, where a lot of attention is paid to keep the soul of the place....
stayed in the house like a good friend, thanks to the hospitality from the host, which is something seldom in the world of today,
From the moment we stepped into Gabs apartment, we felt at home. Very central (only ca. 3 min from U-Bahn) and yet absolutely peaceful and quiet. Gab is a lovely and welcoming host, who has carefully created a very cozy home, which is filled to the brim with memorabilia and selected decorative objects.. The large tranquil garden is an added bonus (VERY rare in Berlin in this area!). The whole place oozes her personality, and sets this place apart from most others on these sites, which often seem soulless, being offered only to earn an extra buck. But at Gab´s you not only have a place to spend the night, you have a place to LIVE. If I would ever need again a place to stay in Berlin, there would be no question - Gab´s would be my first port of call! Only careful, if you have cat allergies, as there are two cats! THANKS Gab!
I couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay whilst in Berlin. The apartment is fantastic, spacious and with a beautiful garden and of course, 2 gorgeous cats :-). This will be the only place I will ever stay in when I am in Berlin.
toller gastgeber mit den totalen wohlfühleffekt,entspannung und kultur waren auf einem niveau,drei tage gerne auch mehr,immer wieder,grüße aus dem schönen thüringen u natürlich auch aus erfurt
wir habe ein tolles Wochenende in einer schönen Wohnung genossen. Sehr zentral gelegen, alles fußläufig erreichbar .... wir kommen gerne wieder ! Vielen Dank für den freundlichen Empfang !
Es war meine erster Ausflug in diese Art des Reisens. Und: Glück gehabt. Oder ein glückliches Händchen.
Hinreißende Katzen, hinreißende Gastgeberin, witzige bis ernste (und auch mal laaange) Gespräche, extravagant-übergemütliche Wohnung (Fotos stimmen!), super Lage und Infrastruktur.
Ganz anders zu sein und doch gemeinsame Interessen und Themen zu haben – das war schon nach Anschauen der Website abzusehen und so macht es einfach noch mehr Spaß :-))
Many thanx, my dear!

2: Sparring
She rolled to the left avoiding the large descending form which landed where she had previously been. Then quickly, before the Father could recover, the girl clambered astride his robust chest, muscular arms pinned beneath her knees. Father Geoffrey futilely tried to improve his position by leveraging with his legs. Anonda took advantage of the distraction pushing his right cheek against the cold clean floor, her opposite arm poised to make a harmful blow.
"Perhaps you are ready." The burly monk spat between squished, pursed lips.
"Ready for what?"
"I'll tell you when I know."
"You don't know what it is?"
"I don't know if you're ready."
Anonda pressed her knees deeper into his elbows in response to the retort. Answering his groan she let her whole weight rest on her hand pressed against her mentor's face standing up defiantly. Father Geoffrey followed suit. "Why did I stop bringing in sparring partners for you?" he queried while rubbing the pain from his face. "Lack of volunteers." She rapidly replied adding "Why don't you ask some Ninitah, I'd love to spar with them." as she walked over to the water pitcher.

In a quiet office at the edge of the Galleria area, Amit Mehta runs a business related to the oil industry. But in his spare time, he also runs a social networking site called My Virtual Neighbor.
"My Virtual Neighbor was actually born after I was robbed personally, a couple of months back. I was used to getting notices from property management that' hey be careful. There was a crime reported. Be careful, there was a robbery.' So I never really payed attention and those used to go in my garbage cans. But when I got robbed myself, it was a wake-up call."
Mehta, who lives in a high-rise apartment building on Sage Road, says he started wondering if there was a more effective way he could connect with others in the building.
He searched around and didn't find what he was looking for, so he developed a website himself. Within a few weeks, 75 people in his building signed up and started sharing information.
"So a good example is, once somebody was robbed and they actually posted a picture of the door — how the people broke in. So everybody got that picture of the door posted on their walls after he found out about it. And then everybody was giving suggestions this is what we should do to protect ourselves next time. And next thing we know the community was really interacting in a big way to stop crime together."
Since it's launch earlier this year, the website has grown to about 150 communities here in Houston and across the country.
My Virtual Neighbor feels a lot like Facebook.
You have your own profile and a wall where you can post information. But unlike Facebook, the type of information you're sharing and receiving is more pertinent.
"Now the difference between this and Facebook is every post you read here, you can tell is meaningful. Whereas on Facebook, all we do is 'oh, I'm walking my dog,' 'LOL I just went to this party.' That's all we do. So there's nothing meaningful we are interacting about."
Mehta says it's already making a difference in crime.
Houston Police reports from January and February show an average of five crimes each month on the 3000 block of Sage, where Mehta lives. Reports from April and May, after My Virtual Neighbor took off, show one crime per month.
It's not much to go on yet, but Mehta says whether you go online to meet your neighbors, or walk the block tomorrow night, Houstonians can do more to build trust in their community.

What is hypnosis and how can it help you?
Hypnosis is an alternative discipline that has mainly been used by experts around the world to help people overcome many fears and phobias. Lately, hypnosis has also proven to be extremely effective in helping to reduce all kinds of physical pains that could affect the human body. In this short article you will learn how hypnosis can be used to help you reduce to post-surgical pain, as well as some of the long term benefits on those who practice it on a constant basis.
How does hypnosis work?
Hypnosis is a very powerful tool that helps us to effectively communicate with our subconscious mind. It is a method of deep relaxation guided by our imagination in which our attention is focused within rather than on the things around us, away from regular flow of thoughts and anxieties. Many of our habits and behaviors are based on past life experiences that have been forgotten by our conscious mind but are still active within our subconscious, making it a hard for us to change them at will. The way that hypnosis is effective in helping you to reduce post-surgical pain is by helping you to relax your body and visualize yourself away from your pain. It is a fact that what we focus on tends to expand therefore when you visualize yourself in a pleasant situation your mind believes it thus reducing your pain. It is important to note that in order to speed up results and effectiveness with this method that you consult with a qualified hypnotherapist or listen to a quality self-hypnosis program.
How can hypnosis help you to relieve pain after surgery?
When it comes to the use of hypnosis for pain reduction, there are many different approaches and techniques that have deemed to be effective. You can use hypnosis to combat pain by putting yourself in a state of trance, affirm to yourself that you are and feel painless and your mind will start to work towards your affirmations. You can use visualization in order to speed up recovery and reduce pain, you can also try to reprogram your mind to associate pain with something different such the feelings cold or hot.
Hypnosis has resulted to be a very effective way to control pain, so effective that it was sometimes used during World War II on wounded soldiers as a replacement of anesthetics when supply was low. Over time, people have also effective used hypnosis for weight loss, to stop bad habits such as smoking, and as a way of entertainment with stage hypnosis.
It is important to note that in order to effectively reduce your pain with hypnosis, you have to believe that it can help you. If you believe that hypnosis doesn't work and don't 100% believe that it will help you, then I can assure you that it won't. If you will like to learn more about the topic of hypnosis and more of its benefits, feel free to refer to professionalhypnotistshop.com for more detailed information and a great variety of outstanding self-hypnosis products.

Great rug for dog owners
I have 6 dogs who love to sit with me in the office. This rug is a breeze to clean and the dog hair doesn't stick. For the price,you can't beat it. Very soft to walk on. I looked all over at local discount stores to find a patterned rug like and the prices were at least $20-$30 higher. I bought this based on other customers recommendations and I couldn't be happier. Whenever I need another rug, I will be shopping at Overstock.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Color was a little darker and the pattern wasn't as defined
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Pretty accurate

This means that the animals in our care, our guests, are never euthanized merely because we lack space or because the animal's stay with us has exceeded a pre-defined amount of time.
Please visit our web site at www.baypathhumane.org to find out more about our shelter, our current animals and adoption policies. If you'd like to come visit us and meet our animals in person, we are located at 5 Rafferty Road - which is off Route 85 - in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. Click here for a map and directions.Hours of Operation
Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday (CLOSED Tuesday): 11:30AM - 4:30 PM*
*Baypath Humane Society is closed to the public on Tuesdays. This will give our beloved animals a day to rest comfortably. We will also use this time to conduct activities relative to operations, such as medical issues, cleaning, and behavior evaluations. This will make us a more effective and efficient operation on the other 6 days. As always, we thank you for your support!
Monetary donations cover our operating expenses and animal care costs. Baypath relies solely on generous contributions from you and our business community to run our society and operate our shelter. Baypath does not function as Animal Control for any town. We are not affiliated with any other humane society or any national organization. Thus, we do not receive funds from government agencies, local or federal.

Els put his marker on one of the Green Jackets that becomes the property of a US Masters title-holder following his two-shot victory over Woods in Sunday's Genuity Championship in Miami.
There was no time to celebrate his first triumph on the US Tour in over 18 months because the 32-year-old South African sprinted from the post-tournament awards presentation to the airport where he caught a plane to take him halfway around the world to the Dubai Desert Classic, which starts here on Thursday.
But before sleeping off the inevitable jet-lag, Surrey-based Els revealed a belief that his revitalised game and mindset could prevent Woods successfully defending the Masters in five weeks' time. Having wintered well on the beach in his homeland, Els has already played a practice round on the new-look Augusta - and found it to his liking.
The Georgia course has been lengthened by 285 yards to 7,270 yards in an effort to combat the new breed of big hitters who are exploiting advances in equipment technology to drive the ball clear of traditional traps and obstacles.
He said: "They have done a wonderful job. It is a tougher test now. It was a driving paradise, but now you have really got to get yourself in position and take it from there.
"You have to be accurate off the tee. I shot even par and I thought I played pretty well. I'd like to think it plays more into my hands."
Els's driving, so crucial in taming the famed Blue Monster course at Miami's Doral complex, has benefited from some tinkering by acclaimed guru David Leadbetter, but finally getting the better of Woods is a huge mental boost.
Two years ago Els finished runnerup to the world's best player on no fewer than four occasions including the British and US Opens, and for a moment in the final round of the Genuity on Sunday it looked as thought the jinx might strike again as Woods wore down his rival's eight-shot overnight lead.
Double US Open winner Els admitted: "My emotions were going all over the place. When Tiger gets on a roll there seems to be a different buzz on the course as people get behind him.
"It got to be a pretty difficult situation, so winning was nice.
"There's still a couple of aspects of my game that I can work on, but by the time the Masters comes around I'll be ready to play." Els comes to the Emirates course having jumped two places in the world rankings to third behind Woods and Phil Mickelson.
Woods was a welcome visitor here last year, when he lost on the last hole to Denmark's Thomas Bjorn in a sensational head-to-head over four rounds. But this time he has chosen to stay in America and hone his
game for the Players' Championship and the Masters.
So it is down to Colin Montgomerie to lead the challenge against the onform Els as practice got under way in Dubai today, with actress Susie Amy, Chardonnay in Footballers' Wives, joining boyfriend Steve Webster on the course. Montgomerie confirmed he will also be teeing-up against Els and Woods in the Players Championship, the Masters and other events in the US. Just a fortnight ago, he insisted his golfing days in America were numbered after he was heckled during a first-round defeat to Scott McCarron at the World Match Play in California.
Oafish American galleries have taken to taunting the seven-times European No1 and California two weeks ago proved the final straw. He said: "I'm 39 in June and I don't need this any more." But after a period of reflection, Montgomerie has changed his mind.
He said: "Over the past week the assurances I have received from the US Tour and tournament promoters, coupled with the support I have received from genuine US golf fans, has convinced me I should not let a small minority dictatewhere I play."

@granolagrinderLocale: Central TX
Hi, granolagrinder is HERE @_@. I'm so excited to join this community, great info guys, keep up the good work.
I'm going to spend at least 12 days hiking (with some friends) the JMT sometime middle of June and early July 2014. Its going to be my 1st southbound section hike trip in the wilderness and I'm very nervous as well as exciting, but planning is the key and that's why I'm here.
I'm interested in camping at different environments, mix it up a little bit, camping by the lake one day, next to the main trail the next day … or maybe just setup a camp at high elevation and enjoy the awesomeness of beautiful night sky and the view of valley. Perhaps, I can wander off to the dense forest, off trail, and camp with solitude.
I'm aiming to log about 8-13 miles per day in this trip, so 12 days southbound trip would properly get me to John Muir Ranch. I know there are many variables when it come to select a campsite but with your experiences, I'm hoping to enhance the total experience at JMT.
Thanks.Nov 7, 2013 at 8:07 am #2042146

@rosyfinchLocale: the mountains
Everybody's different, but from my perspective you can enhance you experience by not over planning. Relax, hang lose, and respond to the circumstances of the particular day as far as camp selection goes. Go with what you feel along the trail.
Bill DNov 7, 2013 at 8:16 am #2042149
David ThomasBPL Member
@davidinkenaiLocale: North Woods. Far North.
If you're new to longer hikes, then, yes, mix it up. You may find you really like being camped closer to the trail and getting a quick start the next day. Or maybe you won't like the other people walking by early and late. Higher elevations offer spectacular star and meteor viewing on clear nights, but are colder, especially on clear nights. If your sleeping system is a little light, that might not be comfortable. If you're working to keep your weight way down, then being near water lets you do lots of your hydration and cooking without carrying much water weight. So, yeah, play with it, sample a variety of types of sites.Nov 7, 2013 at 8:53 am #2042158

@granolagrinderLocale: Central TX
Thanks everyone for your input. I've always thought when you select campsite the only thing matter is: location location location, but there are so many variables such as temperature, moisture, water source, personal gears ..etc. I'm gonna look at my gear lists see what work best.Nov 7, 2013 at 8:55 am #2042159

@mariposaLocale: Outside
Your best source of information may well be the many northbound hikers you encounter. Engage them in conversation and see what they have to suggest about where to camp. Where do they WISH they had camped the night before? "Man, we passed this amazing spot by x lake and wish we'd stopped there…"
Variety of landscape and camping experience will happen on its own. Without any predetermination.
When I think of returning to the JMT, I tend to focus on particular gems that are a shame to rush through – whether you camp there or not. The two most universally beloved areas you are going to pass through are (1) a long section from Donahue Pass to Shadow Lake; and (2) the few short miles just before and just after Silver Pass. I would plan to do short miles on those days, pausing to enjoy, maybe see some of the famous just-off-trail sites like Lyell Glacier and Lake Ediza. Take long lunches; go exploring; photograph; take a half-layover day. And camp.

In case you are not yet a member, I recommend you join the Yahoo group joinmuirtrail. There are many resources on there that will be helpful – for example a spreadsheet with all the 200+ campsites (description, GPS data) that Elizabeth Wenk lists in her book John Muir Trail: The essential guide to hiking America's most famous trail
The members on that group are very nice and patient in answering any question that comes up.
Enjoy the trail!

@bluewaterLocale: SoCal
Like most have said camping is good almost anywhere on the JMT. There were a few places that I remember being special (in sobo order): Cathedral Lake, the north side of Island Pass, 1,000 Island Lake (west shore away from crowds), Squaw Lake (Silver Pass), Marie Lake (Seldon Pass), the south end of Darwin Bench, Evolution Basin (Evolution/Sapphire/Wanda/Helen Lakes), the plateau at the top of the waterfall that overlooks Deer Meadow, Upper Basin, the south side of Pinchot Pass, the lakes on the south side of Forest Pass, Big Horn Plateau and the tarn to the east of Guitar Lake. Most of these are already popular so I don't feel like I'm giving away any private 'secret spots', but I will say that there are many many special little areas out there waiting to be discovered. Have fun. Andy.Nov 15, 2013 at 4:31 pm #2044996

@b-g-2-2Locale: Silicon Valley
I was southbound on the JMT going through the Evolution Region. As I passed the McClure Meadow Ranger Station, I stopped to speak to the ranger, and I asked him about any upcoming tent spots that I should be looking for. He directed me to one that was a few miles ahead, and that would coincide with sunset. I headed that way, and I was just a few feet from the spot when a northbound backpacker jumped on it before I could. Shucks. I could tell by the wild look on his face that he needed it more than I did, so I found another spot a hundred yards away, not far from Darwin Bench.

I do encourage people to join the JMT Yahoo Group — we do have 2300 members focused on the trail and more research material on the trail than all the other web sites combined (or very close to it). We also have a JMT Cribsheet of all the information you'd want on the trail condensed to a single sheet of paper (back-to-back). Great to take on the trail.Nov 16, 2013 at 6:58 am #2045117

TODAY I'm turning my attention to group betting and for the first time there are six sections.
The top two in each group will reach the last 16 as well as the four best third-placed sides.
Finishing top of course will hand the winners an easier last-16 draw with four of them – the sides that finish top in Group A, B, C and D – up against third-placed finishers.
In Group A I can't see past hosts France who I've tipped on the outrights so let's focus on Group B which should be one of the toughest fought between England, Wales, Russia and Slovakia.
England are short-priced favourites and should take top spot if they beat Russia in their opener. Slip up there and the pressure will be massive with Wales next up in a game that could feature more brawn than beauty.
Group C sees two teams who qualified together from Scotland's section – Germany and Poland – paired with Ukraine and Northern Ireland.
It was one win apiece in the qualifiers and the result between the Poles and Germans could settle this group with both likely to beat the other two teams.
In Group D it should be a fight between Spain and Croatia for first place with the Czechs and Turkey trying to pick up one of those best thirds.
Group E is possibly the toughest to call with fancied Belgium, tough to beat Italy and Zlatan Ibrahimovic's Sweden in there with the Republic of Ireland.
Again the Belgium v Italy result could decide this but don't write off the Swedes.
Group F is wide open with favourites Portugal too reliant on Cristiano Ronaldo. Dark horses Austria are being backed to go well and Iceland could make a splash on their debut. Hungary could be the whipping boys though.

Don't Waste My Time
Two scientists are standing front of a portal. One is holding a bowl of petunias. Suddenly a man in a Union soldier uniform steps out of the portal whistling. He stops in his tracks when he sees the scientists.
Union soldier: Where am I? I coulda sworn I was almost home!
Scientist 1#: You are at Area 51 and we are testing this time machine. (Holds up the bowl of petunias)
Union solder: Ain't that a bowl of petunias? My fiancee loves petunias.
Scientist 2#: No, we disguised it as a bowl of petunias to keep it from getting stolen.
Union soldier: So like I said before, what am I doing here!
Scientist 1#: Oh well you see as time progresses, certain details and events are lost to time. So we would like to get that information firsthand.
Union soldier: You mean you want to interview me.
Scientist 1#: Er, yes.
Union soldier: So, how long is this gonna take?
Scientist 2#: Oh, about a year.
Union solider: What! I have to stay here a year!?!
Scientist 1#: Of course not!
Union soldier: Oh, phew.
Scientist 2#: We have to keep you here for ever.
Union soldier: What! But my fiancee, my friends, my life!
Scientist 1#: Well, you see, we can't have you going around and telling people.
Scientist 2#: So you can never leave.
Union soldier: So that bowl of petunias...
Scientist 1#: Time machine.
Union soldier: So that bowl of petunias brought me here?
Scientist 2#: Sigh. Yes.
Union soldier: Do I hear gunshots?
Scientists: What!
While they are distracted, the soldier grabs the petunias and starts to fiddle with them. A portal opens and he jumps through. The scientists follow him and they land in a jungle.
Scientist 1#: You idiot!
Union soldier: I'm the idiot! You're the ones who were gonna trap me there for the rest of my life!
Scientist 2#: Relax! I have the time machine right...
He holds up the time machine, which had gotten crushed in all the commotion.
Union soldier: So... Do you have another one?
Scientist 1#: Why yes.
Union soldier: Really?
Scientist 1#: Of course not!
Scientist 2#: Wait do you hear that?
Everyone freezes as the trees in front of them begin to part...

The Warehou-- Er, I mean, Headquarters
"This is it?" Paulie looked around at the dingy warehouse within which, was the headquarters for the small company Char worked for. It was in the bad part of town; was dusty, musty and had a distinct odour of old cheese that just wouldn't give up and move on. It was pretty rank but it was home to Char - sort of.
Char ignored Paulie's snooty comment and wound her way through the myriad hallways and doors, through which, she knew, Paulie would never be able to navigate. He'd be searching for another hour before he found her plunked down in a chair in Bud's office.
"Hey Kiddo," Bud looked up from his desk and greeted her.
"Hey Bud," She was relieved to be back after that little road trip from hell she had been forced to take.
"D'you bring back the kid?" Bud asked.
Char let out a sigh. "Yeah, he's here; wandering around somewhere."
They were both silent, knowing that they were both thinking about the same thing.
"Listen, I'm sorry about Moira; I know you guys were close--"
She cut him off. "It's fine. These things happen right? Business." She replied bitterly.
Another minute of silence. Char picked at her nails; Bud watched her.
"How'd the drop go?"
"Fine, I guess." Then, "Paulie was a wreck, though. I don't think he's cut out for this kind of thing."
"Aw, he'll get the swing of it." Bud offered, waving her worry away with a flick of his hand. "Sammy said he could do it. You're bother knows what he's talking about; I'll be damned before the day comes when I don't trust his judgement." Sammy was Bud's right hand man, although they were not, technically, partners.
Sammy was Char's oldest brother, as well. There were three other brothers between them; Paulie was the baby. They all worked for Bud; at least, now they all did.
Paulie finally poked his head around the corner of the door.
"Geez, Char, coulda' told me where you were going or something."
"Hey Paulie," Bud offered. "Ready to get to work?" Bud half smiled to himself, knowing that this process was going to get interesting. "Alright, we better get the basics out of the way first. Have a seat."
Char sat by silently while Bud explained the goings-on to Paulie.
"Alright, Kid, as I'm sure you know, people come to us when they need to get a job done that they can't do themselves." For some reason, Paulie thought this was quite funny. He began to chuckle until a death glare from Char silenced him. He nodded his head solemnly at Bud. Bud continued. "Now, sometimes, when regulars come to us directly - regulars is what we call the people right off the street who need the job done - when they come to us directly, we'll contact some other guys in a different company to do the job. We do this so we won't be as easily connected to the job, to the regular or to the other Hires."
"The 'other Hires'?" Paulie was getting confused.
"The Hires are the guys who do the job - the contract killers, if you will, although we try not to use that phrase." Paulie was still conused. "Like your 'sis, here. She's a Hire; and you're brothers too."
"That drop you did today, for example, we were giving another Hire the money and the file for a job that a regular came to us about...got it?"
"I think so..." Paulie replied catiously. Char rolled her eyes.
"The same goes for other Hires; when they get a regular come to them, they pass the job along to one of us, for example, or any number of other Hires. We try not to use the same Hire twice in a short span of time."
Char was getting bored far too quickly. She couldn't handle any more of her youngest brother's imbecility.
"Bud, do you mind if I take off? I'm meeting Martin for lunch."
"Sure, Kiddo, we'll see you later."
Char meandered out of the stuffy office, Bud's voice floating away behind her. She could hear him starting in on the lesson again.
Out in the street, the sun was peeking out from behind the overcast sky. The brlliance of the light started to tug on the corners of her sullen mouth. She couldn't wait to see Martin; he was her favorite brother. She finally gave in and allowed a full fledged smile to cross her lips.

One by one, balls of flames shot up from the towers like mini-infernos, lighting up the city skyline and casting a warm orange glow across the water below. We could hear the mighty whoosh each time the flames rose, followed by a hum of appreciation from the watching crowds lining the riverbank. The nightly fireball display in front of the Crown Casino has become a key feature of Melbourne's night scene, and we had the best seats in the house. Only thing was, we couldn't keep them still. That's the trouble with kayaks.
That morning we had cycled along the bank of the Yarra river, dodging office workers with their iPods and lattes, admiring the architecture and soaking up the city vibe. But now we were seeing Melbourne's hub from a whole different perspective – on a Moonlight Kayak tour, one of the city's more unusual sightseeing experiences. Under cover of darkness, we paddled silently up the Yarra like secret agents, passing under the bridges unseen. It was magical.
We had met at 7pm at Shed 2 of Victoria Harbour in the city's Docklands, like a smaller version of London's Docklands but catching up fast. Kent, our forever smiling (and ridiculously handsome) guide had introduced us to our ride, a two-seater fibreglass SeaBear sea kayak, and given us a quick but thorough briefing – life jackets, steering, paddling.
"Any more questions?" he asked.
"Are there any sharks?" I said, only half- joking. After all, we were in Australia. As it turns out, it wasn't such a stupid question. There had been a sighting, said Kent, but only the one, back in 2007. (It had been a two-metre shark – I Googled it afterwards.) But it was too late to back out now.
It was still light as we paddled off, and the low sun was glinting off the brilliant white super yachts lined up along the pontoons. At first, we stuck to the edge of the marina, getting used to our paddles and synchronising our strokes. The going was every bit as easy as Kent had promised. But then we changed direction and suddenly felt the force of the wind whipping across the water.
Warren, my fiancé, in the back, was in charge of steering with a foot pedal, but despite his best efforts we were being pushed towards the underside of a jetty. We had to use our paddles to help make the turn, really putting our backs into it to keep our distance. That was our only hairy moment, though, and we soon caught up with the others, in a sheltered corner of the marina.
Kent tied our kayaks to the jetty and left us chatting with our fellow urban adventurers. He returned a few minutes later with five portions of fish and chips, which we ate bobbing about in our kayaks, dipping our chips into the tartare sauce.
Kent told us how he'd moved to Melbourne from Toronto for a marketing job but got sick of the corporate world. A keen kayaker, he'd come up with the idea of the Yarra tours. He does daytime trips too, but the moonlight tour has been the winner. "I think it's the fish and chips," he said, and to be fair they were a big part of the appeal.
Energy levels up, we headed off again, out into the mouth of the marina and past the Star Observation Wheel, Melbourne's answer to the London Eye. It opened in 2008 but closed 40 days later because of major structural defects (it had cracked in the heat). Dismantled and completely rebuilt, it opened again last December. At dusk it lights up in pretty neon colours.
As the sun set, we passed under the enormous Bolte Bridge, with its distinctive twin giant towers (purely aesthetic, Kent told us), then made a sharp left turn to head up the Yarra and into the heart of the city.
The wind was in our favour now, so the paddling was easy and at times we let our blades rest and drifted along peacefully, taking it all in. Dusk turned to night and lights on the skyscrapers started to twinkle. As we cruised, Kent pointed out the landmarks, including the Eureka Skydeck, Melbourne's tallest highrise, named after a bloody rebellion during Victoria's 1854 gold rush. (The building's golden crown represents the precious metal, he told us, while the red stripe is for the blood spilt in the fighting.)
Next came the Webb Bridge, with its distinctive futuristic web tunnel for cyclists and pedestrians; and the Sandridge Bridge, with its large metal sculptures entitled The Travellers, representing the immigrants who arrived by train over the bridge from Station Pier.
We slipped under the eerie undersides of these famous bridges, paddling through their shadowy arches, some of which were low enough to touch.
I had expected that we would be dodging pleasure cruisers and restaurant boats, waving to people in other boats (like you do when you're a tourist on water), but we had the river completely to ourselves. On either side of us the city night scene was hotting up, restaurants and bars buzzing, and here we were, on our moonlight urban kayak adventure, floating gently through the middle of it, trailing our fingers in the warm water, seeing it all, but unseen, from a vantage point like no other.

Kristen Stewart has signed on to play the lead in "Like Crazy" director Drake Doremus' futuristic love story "Equals," and it's making her a nervous wreck.
Kristen Stewart has signed on to play the lead in "Like Crazy" director Drake Doremus' futuristic love story "Equals," and it's making her a nervous wreck.
"I can't believe I agreed to do it," said the "Twilight" actress about her upcoming role in the sci-fi drama, which also stars Nicholas Hoult of the upcoming "X-Men: Days of Future Past."
Stewart describes "Equals" as a slightly updated version of the 1956 film "1984," based on George Orwell's classic 1949 novel about rebellion in a repressed futuristic society. "Equals" begins filming later this year.
"I'm terrified of it," said the 23-year-old actress in a recent interview. "Though it's a movie with a really basic concept, it's overtly ambitious."
"In 'Equals,' things go wrong because you can't deny the humanity in everyone," said Stewart. "It's the most devastating story."
Adds Doremus of his sixth film: "It's about love in a world where love really doesn't exist anymore."
Written by Nathan Parker ("Moon" ), "Equals" is the first film Doremus will direct that he didn't write himself.
"I trust Drake's process and I know we will do something really natural and real," said Stewart. "But I told Drake, 'Don't expect that I am going to be able to do this. It's too hard.' But he wouldn't take 'no' for an answer. I've given directors disclaimers before, but never this much."
Jennifer Lawrence, who appeared in 2011's "Like Crazy," was one of the first actresses to read Parker's script. Though the story brought her to tears, she couldn't see herself in the role, said Doremus.
"It became evident in my head that Nick and Kristen would have great chemistry," the director said.
"It's a love story of epic, epic, epic proportion," added Stewart. "I'm scared."
This week, the actress heads to the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, where she'll star in writer-director Peter Sattler's soldier film "Camp X-Ray."

U.S. states, greens delay lawsuit, watch for Obama climate plan
By Valerie Volcovici
WASHINGTON, June 17 (Reuters) - Environmental groups and a dozen states and cities said Monday they will delay planned legal action against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, saying they will wait to see if the White House soon unveils a climate policy strategy.
The attorney generals of New York and nine other states, along with three major green groups, had planned to sue the EPA this week because it missed a deadline in April to finalize emissions standards for new electric power plants.
Two months after notifying the agency they intended to sue, the consortium had expected to file as early as Monday, but backed off temporarily to allow the White House to disclose its climate plans.
"Due to public reports that the president will be announcing major action on climate change very soon, the Attorney General has decided to postpone a lawsuit on this matter for a short period," said Melissa Grace, a spokeswoman for New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman.
President Barack Obama reportedly told campaign donors last week he will unveil a package of measures to combat climate change, possibly including EPA curbs on power plant emissions.
Many of those donors are ardent opponents of TransCanada Corp's planned Keystone XL pipeline, which would carry oil produced in Canada's oil sands regions to refineries on the U.S. Gulf Coast. Some policy analysts reason that, if Obama approves the pipeline, he will face pressure to announce strong climate measures as an offsetting measure.
The Natural Resources Defense Council, one of the groups that planned to sue, said in a statement that whatever Obama rolls out should advance his previous pledges on climate action.
"The president has set a goal to cut our carbon emissions by 17 percent - from our 2005 levels - by 2020. We need a set of actions that will get us there," said David Hawkins, director of climate programs at the environmental group. Continued...

Tell the Master
I read in the manuscript Superior had typed up: "Shadowlords. Aligned toward the energy axes of law and evil. They are the great puppet masters of the Plane of Dendroth, the lords of that place. Their bodies are weak in themselves, all flesh and fluid. But a Shadowlord would never let a player character approach it. It uses others, player characters and non-player characters, as tools and as slaves. Unless a willpower check is successful, it possesses minds and bodies with great tentacles and transforms humanoids into zombies." I read this aloud, slowly. I took a sip of my soda. I crunched some corn chips.
"Nasty fellers," Monty said. He packed his pipe with his thumb. He lit it.
I flipped a yellowed page in the spiral-bound Optima handbook Monty had given me. We hadn't played the game yet. He was helping me "make my character," whatever that meant. But we hadn't played yet. He made that very clear. In fact, I was still trying to figure out how you played it.
"How do you play it?" I said.
"Well," Monty said, pouring himself another cup of coffee into a ceramic mug. "It's kind of like storytelling, see. There is the Master. He kind of controls the story."
"How does he control the story?" I said.
He took a sip of his steaming black coffee. He puffed his pipe, cradled the bowl, sat. "Well, the Master doesn't control the story. That's shared. Instead, he controls the universe. He controls the monsters. He gives treasure. He takes it away."
"You're confusing me," I said. "He doesn't control the story?"
"Yes and no," he said.
"And you played this with Great Grandpa Superior?" I said.
He chewed his pipe. He grinned nervously.

A/N: So this random fluffy one shot (btw first one shot that's not a song fic yay for me!) that I wrote for my BFF ActingBlonde :) She also Betaed this story and fixed the whole 2 typos I made... SO now on to the story!
Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN JONAS...unfortunately... :(
Special Hugs
Macy loved hugs. No matter what type she loved them all. She loved giving and receiving them. There are so many different kinds of hugs. There are friend hugs, tackle hugs, consoling hugs, excited hugs, awkward hugs, bro hugs, group hugs, and then there are special hugs. Macy had a pretty extensive knowledge of all of them. No one, not even Stella, knew about Macy's fascination with hugs since she was pretty sure they would think she was crazy if they did. So she kept it to herself for the most part. Until one day when she ended up explaining everything.
It had been a long time since Macy fainted around JONAS, she still had her moments where she would go into fan girl mode around Kevin, Nick, and Joe, but it was not nearly as often or bad anymore. Macy and Kevin had gotten closer over time since they understood the whole animals with instruments or clothing thing that still mystified Joe, Stella, and even Nick, who is supposedly a genius. Kevin had taken to hugging Macy every time they saw each other. On one such occasion Macy let something slip.
"I love hugs." Macy was currently pressed against Kevin's chest as he hugged her by her locker. As they pulled back Kevin gave her an amused look.
"What do you love about hugs, Mace?" Macy was surprised, not having expected that question, but knew there was no way she could explain it all in the next four minutes between classes. It just wasn't enough time.
"How about I explain it more thoroughly during lunch? There isn't even enough time right now to scratch the surface of that." Macy looked up at Kevin with big brown eyes.
"Sure, I'll meet you in the Atrium?" he asked.
"Yeah!" She said as she turned and ran towards her next class.
Macy bounced into the atrium with her lunch and waited for Kevin to show up. She actually thought Kevin would understand her quirk about hugs. Now was her chance to test this theory since just that second Kevin walked into the atrium carrying his lunch.
"Hi Kevin!" Macy smiled up at him as he came over and sat next to her on the bench.
"Hey Mace. So are you going to explain your love of hugs to me now?" He looked truly interested.
"Yeah. I'm going to warn you now this may take a bit." Macy said adjusting her position her position on the bench so she was slightly facing him.
"No problem there. I have all lunch." Kevin looked down at her with a look mixed between amusement and interest.
"Okay, here goes. So I love giving and receiving hugs, right? Right. Well I've found that there are a ton of different types of hugs because I pay attention to the difference. There are friend hugs, tackle hugs, consoling hugs, excited hugs, awkward hugs, group hugs, and then there is special hugs. Every one of them is different. Friend hugs are just short 'I'm happy to see you!' hugs, like how Stella and I hug when we see each other or how Stella hugs you or Nick when she sees you. Tackle hugs are exactly what they sound like. They happen when you see a friend you haven't seen in a long time or when you're really excited about something, like when you told me I could sing back up for your new song a while back." Macy smiled sheepishly and was getting ready to continue when she was interrupted.
"You know I really am sorry about that, right? I just didn't want to hurt your feelings, but it completely back fired on me." Kevin looked away feeling some of the guilt return even though she had forgiven him almost immediately after it happened.
"Kevin you know I forgave you for that. It's no big deal." Macy looked up at him trying to show him she really meant it.
"Yeah I know. I just wanted you to know." Kevin looked down blushing lightly.
"I know. Now back to my explanation. There are consoling hugs. Those are basically hugs that are soft and given after something bad happens, like when Stella's grandmother died and Joe just hugged her for as long as it took for her to stop crying whenever she would start again. Excited hugs happen more often among girls because they normally involve grabbing each other and jumping up and down while squealing, like when Stella told me a prestigious clothing company picked one of her designs and we did that for almost five minutes straight. Now awkward hugs are those hugs you get from people who either you're not expecting them from or you don't necessarily like that much, like if Nick were to come up and hug me right now I'd probably go into shock because he doesn't do physical contact." Kevin laughed. It's true Nick wasn't much of a hugger.
"It's true. I'd probably react the same way since every time I try to hug him he tries to remove me from his person." Kevin laughed at the stream of memories that came to mind.
"Yeah Nick's definitely not a hugger. After awkward hugs there are bro hugs. They are basically those hugs where guys grab hands and pull the other to them and pat them on the back before immediately letting go. You and Joe do that all the time. Group hugs are just hugs that involve more than two people, like when my teams win games and we hug and jump around or when you pull Joe, Nick, Stella, and I into a friends' group hug. "Macy smiled at the memories.
"So what are those special hugs then?" Kevin asked curiously smiling at the look on her face.
Macy blushed and began "Well, special hugs are different with every person and they are normally specifically for one or two other people in that person's life. It's like when Joe and Stella hug their hugs feel different than the hugs they give other people. It's a special and no one else gets that hug. Some people have that special hug for more than one person, like their best friend and that special someone in their life. Some have a best friend hug that also fits the category of 'I've liked since we were three years old and just won't tell you' hug since some people can't seem to admit their feelings they do it through hugs. But that's more of an example of Joe and Stella being oblivious and frustrating. Do you get it now, because I feel like I'm rambling, which I probably am, but I can never te-"
"Yeah, I get it. You love hugs because of the variety and the meaning and feelings behind them. You know what? I feel that Joe and Stella might just need to get locked in a closet mysteriously so they'll stop driving us all insane." Kevin laughed at the last part of his statement. Macy looked up at Kevin in astonishment because he had understood her love of hugs so easily and not thought it was weird that she had thought so much about it. Kevin saw the look on her face and wondered what she was thinking.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Kevin asked. Macy blushed at being caught and looked down.
"Um…well, I was surprised that you understood so easily. I never expected people to get it, let alone not think I was crazy for putting so much thought into it." Macy snuck a peak of Kevin's reaction through her eyelashes. Her head shot up when she heard him start laughing.
"Macy you really need to stop thinking people are going to make fun of you. You should know I'd never make fun of you about something like this. My favorite animal is an otter with a trumpet. Of course, I get you. We're odd together." Kevin smiled down at Macy as she blushed. She had thought he was going to make fun of her after all when he laughed, but now she realized she was being ridiculous. Kevin would never make fun of her, or anyone for that matter.
"I don't know what I was thinking. We just get each other like Joe and Stella do." Macy smiled up at him. Kevin suddenly got a curious look on his face.
"Hey Macy."
"Yeah." Macy looked up at him curiously.
"I was wondering. Who is your special hug?" Kevin asked complete blind-siding Macy.
"Um…well, I mean, you know, I haven't really, you know, found that person yet." Macy was blushing deep red because she knew exactly who it was, but she wasn't about to tell Kevin it was him. Nope, no way was she going to tell him that.
"Well I know exactly who my special hug is. She's really amazing. She seems to just get me." Macy looked down dejectedly.
"Oh. She sounds great." Macy felt tears begin to sting her eyes as she looked down avoiding Kevin's gaze. Kevin grabbed her chin and made her look at him.
"Mace, you do know I talking about you right?" Kevin looked straight into her eyes trying to convey how true his words were.
"Really?" Macy looked into Kevin's hazel eyes with her big brown eyes hoping he was really telling her what she had been waiting to hear for so long.
"Really." Kevin smiled and pulled Macy into a hug that he knew he only gave her. Macy clutched onto him and listened to his heartbeat through his chest.
"Kevin?" Macy looked up at Kevin.
"Yeah?" Kevin looked down at her.
"I lied earlier. I knew you were my special hug a long time ago." Macy mumbled into his chest.
"That's okay. I don't hold it against you." Kevin pulled back slightly. Kevin started to lean in towards Macy as their eyes fluttered closed and placed a soft, gentle kiss on her lips. Until…he was interrupted.
"Hey, Kevin, Macy where have you guys – Oh, well, since you seem busy I'll just leave. About time." Joe had walked in with Stella looking for Kevin and Macy after they never showed up for lunch in the cafeteria. Macy and Kevin broke apart and watched Joe and Stella leave.
"When will they finally admit that they like each other?" Macy asked Kevin.
"Who knows? They've been oblivious since they were three." The two of them laughed.
"So where were we? Kevin asked smiling leaning into continue earlier activities.
*with Joe and Stella*
"Well that was an interesting development. I thought they'd never tell each other." Stella said as she and Joe walked away from the atrium.
"Can we really say much after how long it took us?" Joe said smiling as he interlaced his hand with hers and continued down the hall.
"Well that is one thing they missed today. We forgot to tell them." Stella smiled and swung their intertwined hands back and forth. Joe pulled Stella around to face him and kissed her softly before leaning his forehead against hers.
"We took way too long with this." He then pulled Stella into that special hug that was only for her.
"Kevin, you know, special hugs are my favorite."
A/N: SO What did you think?? I wrote this before the most recent episode of JONAS so I know things are leaning another way, but, hey, I can write randomness...either works for me just as long as Joella prevails :) R&R you know what to do.


text: I have an old North Face synthetic mummy bag I've used forever. Back in the day I used it in the winter and didn't get cold even though it's only rated to 30 or so. These days I pretty much just throw it over me since its so warm I don't even really need it. I never really liked being bound up anyway. I really liked the video on how to use a wool blanket and although I may pack one on my trip down to my farm, I can't see employing the method. I'll just thrash around underneath it.
