Donations and Sponsorships
Change for our Community
Started in January of 2014, The Merc Co+op's Change for our Community Program gives shoppers the opportunity to donate their pocket change to local community organizations each time they shop. Each month, The Merc Co+op chooses a different Change recipient and all donations collected that month go to that specific organization.
In under three years, our Change program has raised over $100,000 for 28 different local organizations.
Together, we have helped fund a number or worthwhile needs and projects, including:
- the purchase of special communication devices for children who do not have a voice or who are delayed in speaking (Tiny K Early Intervention, October 2015)
- tuition scholarships for Douglas County children in need (Positive Bright Start, March 2016)
- providing for the immediate needs of those seeking shelter, including fresh, healthy food (Willow Domestic Violence Center, May 2016)
- Round Up: Round the amount of your order up to the next dollar and the difference will be redirected to this month's Change recipient.
- Change Jars: Drop your spare change into the jars at our cash registers.
- Bag Refunds: Bring your own bag, and the 5 cent bag refund will be redirected to the Change recipient.
Donation Program
At The Merc Co+op we are deeply committed to our community. We respect and support the many organizations, schools and churches that help make Lawrence such a strong and vibrant place to live. Each year we receive hundreds of requests for donations from these organizations – all with valid and pressing needs. Due to the volume of requests we receive, we have created a procedure for requesting a donation. Following the steps outlined below will make it easier for your organization to make a request and will allow us to more fairly consider each request we receive.
To be considered as a donation recipient, please complete our donation application and return it to The Merc Co+op attention Nancy O'Connor, Education and Outreach Director.

Auto coverage for home health care workers, delivery workers and volunteers
Your personal auto policy will generally cover you for personal use, which could include giving a friend or family member a ride or taking your neighbor to a medical appointment. It will also generally cover you during unpaid volunteer work. Incidental, non-commercial use (for example: occasional transport of elderly or sick passengers) is not considered commercial use and is generally covered under a personal auto insurance policy. In the past, this practice has been accepted by the industry without serious problems.
Make sure you have the right auto coverage
If you have questions about whether your personal policy will cover you for certain activities, it's a good idea to:
- Read your policy carefully to see what it does and doesn't cover.
- Contact your agent or insurance company for advice.

Turbo Tax / Intuit VIRUS IN TURBOTAX DELUXE Internet
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
1) bought Turbotax Deluxe on a disk through Amazon; 2) installed it and began my Federal tax preparation; 3) It was going slow and taking long to go to varsious menus; 4) entered personal data, etc. 4) after almost a hour later my computer crashed and got a blue screen; 5) somehow got it running again and went back to TT; 6) same thing happened 2 times.
7) blue screen scared me enough to buy, install and run Advanced Systemcare Ultimate 7; 8) ASC 7 cleaned and indicated "Red Cliff" and a couple of other virus were removed; 9) then tried to run TT again; 10) no blue screen or crash, but TT ran slowly like turtle instead of turbo.
11) without more, got H&R block and almost finished the returns; 12) contacted support and spoke to rep in Chennai - Mr. Chetan Nambiar (Madras, India); said I can get a refund since I bought it from Amazon and sent a link; 13) used the link and requested a refund by email; 14) next day got an unsigned email from Intuit/Turbotax with the subject line stating "Case Closed".
15) I have preserved the disk as evidence. A class action will chastise their arrogance.

Ebb And Flow
"Would Alexandre Denis please report to the Air Canada Customer Service Desk. Alexandre Denis, please come to the Air Canada Customer Service Desk located at the international check-in." The kid's voice sounded thin and weak over the PA system, barely decipherable over the constant ebb and flow of conversation that filled the departure hall. I wanted to rip the microphone out of his hand and do it myself.
"Do it again," I growled after another twenty seconds had passed without Alex turning up.
"Sir, it takes time to get anywhere in this place," the kid said around the nervous lump in his throat. "You have to -"
"If you're getting tired I'd be more than happy to do it for you."
"Sir, please restrain yourself. I understand that you're under a lot of stress right now but I'm just trying to do my job, okay?" I didn't think he understood the situation at all but I turned my back on him and returned to surveying the crowd. It was either that or a right hook to the chin and a lengthy visit with airport security.
I never would have guessed that so many people would be flying out of Vancouver on a Tuesday morning. It wasn't like it was Spring Break or summer vacation or anything like that, but my field of vision was filled with families and businessmen shuffling around each other with mountains of luggage in tow. I tried not to let my eyes linger too long on the families huddled together – whether they were laughing, expressionless, or screaming at each other, it was too hard to witness just then.
A flash of red against black in my peripheral vision caused me to snap my head to the right with my heart in my throat. But it was only a teenager in an over-sized Angels jersey, demanding to know where the hell he was supposed to check in for his flight to L.A. and why the hell didn't nobody know what they were doing. My hands balled into fists and I stuffed them in my jacket pockets with a grunt and turned back to the kid behind the counter.
"Is there any way to check which flight he's registered on? I'm sure you can pull that up on one of the fancy computers you've got back there."
"Sir, first off – these computers ain't that fancy. My cell phone is more powerful than any of these ancient beasts." This comment earned him a shocked sideways glance from another representative but he ignored it. I was so caught off-guard that I had to bite my lip to stop from smiling. "Secondly, there's no way I can do that for you – that would be a total breach of protection of privacy laws and I don't make nearly enough money to go through that hassle. So either he's already gone, he's sitting on the runway as we speak, or he's in the terminal somewhere listening to me call his name over and over. That's all I can tell you."
"I'll take door number three," I said as I rubbed the heels of my palms into my eyes. I could feel my resolve leaking out of my body as I leaned against the counter. After a few fleeting days of easing up, the world was back to kicking me around.
"Me too," the kid told me. "Because I know that you'll keep making me do that announcement every two minutes until that last flight takes off – I'd rather this guy just show up and get you off my case."
I nodded my head and stared into the crowd again. This time my eyes kept falling on the faces of couples saying their strained goodbyes before one would collect his or her carry-on bag and turn to go. It occurred to me that I had never been a part of a scene like that, not at the airport at least. I had gone through similar motions whenever I had left Cara behind at the apartment when a fight called me out of town but the long wait in the airport was always a lonely one. I allowed myself a brief moment to wonder what Dawn was doing at that very moment before bringing my thoughts back to Alex.
"One more time," I said over my shoulder. "Please."
For a final time the words floated through the recycled air, landing in ears and empty corners and bouncing off the sterile walls. I overheard someone ask in a voice filled with irritation, "How many damn times are they gonna call that guy? Ain't it obvious he ain't here?" I sighed and stared at the scuffed floor at my feet, reluctantly accepting that I was too late. I began to wonder how difficult it was going to be to find a doctor to give me medical clearance for the fight on Saturday. And what the hell was I going to tell Cara?
"Nate?" The question was nearly lost to the sound of a passing luggage cart. "What are you doing here?" I looked up to see Alex standing in front of me, a black duffel bag slung over his right shoulder and an unreadable expression on his face.
"We need to talk," I said simply, shoving relief harshly aside. I knew the battle had only just begun.
"I have to take care of my family Nate – you cannot change my mind."
Just as I opened my mouth to reply the phone in my pocket began to ring. I yanked it out with a scowl on my face, expecting the caller ID to display the gym's number, or maybe even Gregor's. The noise from the crowd surrounding me fell to a dull roar and the lights of the terminal dimmed as I realized that the number that was actually staring up at me was my own.

Che bella settimana abbiamo avuto con Chris. La camera era ottima, con vista sul giardino posteriore. Camera molto pulita, un sacco di spazio per appendere e disegnare lo spazio. si ha l'uso della cucina e salone. Lavatrice e asciugatrice, che è molto utile quando nei giorni festivi. Chris è molto accomodante a condividere la sua casa, lo spazio frigorifero ecc Consigliamo questa sistemazione a chiunque, molto vicino al trasporto, per andare ovunque. Chris è un ospite eccellente e abbiamo avuto molte discussioni su ogni genere di cose. Altamente raccomandato.
What a lovely week we had with Chris. The room was great with views of back garden. Room very clean, plenty of hanging space and draw space. you have use of kitchen and lounge area. Washing machine and dryer which is very helpful when on holidays. Chris is very accommodating in sharing his house, fridge space etc. Would recommend this accommodation to anyone, very close to transport to go anywhere. Chris is an excellent host and we had many discussions on all sorts of things. Highly recommended.
Ho avuto un grande momento di stare in casa Chris. Servizio molto buono, Chris mi è venuto a prendere alla stazione dei treni e molto disponibile durante il soggiorno. Ottima ospitalità, mi hade pieno accesso alla casa, colazione servita e alcuni discussons piacevoli sopra tazza di tè.
I had a great time staying in Chris house. Very good service, Chris picked me up at the trainstation and were very helpful during the stay. Great hospitality, I hade full access to the house, breakfast served and some nice discussons over cup of tea.
We have loved our staying by Chris, he is the best landlord there is.
Amazing house, amazing owner! Chris is one of the kindest people I have ever met. He is always ready to help, and the house is extremelly beautiful! It has been an absolute luck to met someone like Chris! I definetly recommend to stay here, even for a night. And his cat Chairman is really cute!
Chris was the perfect host!
You cannot expect more. He was very friendly, he picked us up from the airport (!) and prepared breakfast for us - without charging.
If everyone would be that nice the world would be a better place.
5 of 5 stars!
Room was exactly the same as in pictures. We could we find juices, milk fruits and some snacks in the fridge. But what is most important Chris is a great guy who was really nice and helpful. He tried to make our life easier and gave us a lot of good advises about the city. We felt like at home and we are sure next time in Liverpool I am gonna book Chris apartment.
Our room was like it was shown the pictures, comfortable and well equipped as promised. The location of the apartment was great, good transport links.
Chris was a great host: always in a good mood, friendly and polite and very helpful... we had a great time and I can really recommend it (Liverpool and staying with Chris)!!!!
Thank you Chris for everything you have done for us!!!
Best wishes, Rhea and Hanni
Chris is a very sympathic and fantastic host. He gave us all advices for our journey and interessts, prepares fine breakfast with fresh milk delivered by the milkman at 5 a.m. and marmelades from Liverpool. The former doctor´s house can´t be more typical and much more sympathic. Unbelivable: in our room we found fresh fruits and a freshly filled refrigerator with sweeties, all sort of drinks, milk and so one. When we think back to our days in Liverpool, we think to our tours and to Chis. When we said good-bye it was somehow like leaving a friend.
We had a great time at Chris' house. Chris is very friendly and helpful. He picked us up from airport and told us useful information concerning Liverpool and all we needed during our stay.
We will definitely stay at his house again if we come back to Liverpool next time.

University Student
Why Chrissy didn't quit computer science
Too often in tech, we hear of women who started out with a love for computer science but amid the gender imbalance, lost their moxie. We recently shared Alexa's story, "Why I dropped out of computer science." Alexa was the only girl in a room full of guys. Like many young women, she felt alienated.
Chrissy Maertens is not among them. Chrissy is a Program Manager on the Catalog team, within Commerce Platform. She works on billing aspects of Microsoft Account, which provides a place where customers can review transactions and change billing information. For instance, she worked on the Gift Card Redemption feature.
When asked what personal qualities women need to succeed in computer science, Chrissy says, "Confidence is an important key to success for all employees."
Two key factors gave Chrissy a strong foundation for confidence and competence in computer science: family, and access to awards/tech opportunities in college.
1. Family support and female role models.
Both Chrissy's parents worked in tech, and she's the second-oldest of five tech-oriented children. "My mom especially motivated us to excel at math and science at a very young age. As we got older, we learned that engineering was a field where we could apply our skills."
Chrissy's older sister, Jen, completed three internships at Microsoft. Jen was in the first-ever group of Explore Microsoft interns. She worked at Microsoft full-time for five years, mostly working on the Microsoft Store. During Chrissy's junior year at Michigan, Jen started working full-time at Microsoft.
2. Scholarships, internships and university opportunities.
Chrissy graduated from the University of Michigan's College of Engineering in 2009, with a degree in Computer Engineering. After two Microsoft internships and graduation, she returned to Redmond as a full-time employee and joined the Pinpoint team.
While Chrissy was attending U of M, she was awarded a Microsoft Technical Scholarship. After two internships, and serving as the on-campus Microsoft marketing and technical student partner, Chrissy says, "I knew Microsoft would be a great place to work."
Here's why, five years later, she still feels that way:
- Competitive compensation. "Employees are treated well."
- Charitable donations. "When I volunteer to coach volleyball to local junior-high students, Microsoft matches my time spent with a cash donation to the school. Additionally, each year, I participate in the Day of Caring with the summer interns."
- Cutting-edge technology. "Microsoft produces innovative products that are interesting to work on."
- Career opportunities for jobs that provide intellectual stimulation. Microsoft offers an environment that's dedicated to ongoing learning. Grace Hopper is just one of the conferences Chrissy attends that provide networking, learning and enrichment for women.
- Customer focus. Chrissy enjoys hands-on opportunities for engagement, like the Worldwide Partner Conference and Build conferences. At WPC, she says, "I always loved talking first-hand with the partners. I've had the opportunity to work with great managers and great teams, and on customer-facing products where I can really see the impact of my work."
- Collaboration. Chrissy says it's a key reason women succeed at Microsoft: "Women tend to be particularly collaborative and inclusive. As a result, we can better build off of each other's work."
For Chrissy and her family, the intern-to-full-time lineage continues: Younger sister Katie is a PM on the Operating Systems Group (OSG) Map App team. Their brother Matthew completed his second internship last summer and will return full-time in the fall as a PM on the Dynamics AX team. Their youngest brother, Daniel, finished his freshman year at Michigan and is an Explore Microsoft intern on the Open Source team in Cloud & Enterprise. Also, Chrissy's fiancé joined Microsoft at the same time she did. He works as a PM on the DirectX team in OSG.

Color values can be specified using several ways.
There are 17 basic keyword color names that are specified in CSS3. Modern browsers support many additional color names - everything from papayawhip to darkorchid .

color: red;

Hexadecimal color values take the format #rrggbb, where rr is the amount of red in the color, gg is the amount of green in the color, and bb is the amount of blue in the color.

color: #ff0000;

Hexadecimal color values can be abbreviated when a color is represented by three pairs of hexadecimal characters. For example, with #ff6600, you can remove one character from each pair. The shorthand color values take the format #rgb, where r is the amount of red, g is the amount of green in the color, and b is the amount of blue. For example, #f60 is the same as #ff6600.
selector { color: #f60; }
Functional notation takes the format rgb(n,n,n), where n is a number between 0 and 255 or percentage between 0% and 100% for the red, green, and blue intensities of the color, respectively.

color: rgb(255,0,0);

color: rgb(100%,0%,0%);

CSS3 offers the use of RGBA-format color names, with the additional (the "a") parameter specifying the opacity (the "alpha" channel) of the color as a decimal between 0.0 (completely transparent) and 1.0 (completely opaque). Thus, the code

 color: rgba(255,0,0,0.5)

would style the div with a red background with 50% transparency.
Also new in CSS3 is the HSL specification. Supported in modern browsers (Internet Explorer from version 9), we use HSL to specify hue (a degree on the color wheel, with 0=red, 120=green, and 240=blue), saturation (a percentage, with 0% a shade of gray and 100% the full color), and lightness (a percentage, with 0% as black and 100% as white). The following code displays a div with red background:

Our recommendation is to use three-character hexadecimal notation (i.e., #rgb) when you can get the color you want and to use the six-digit hexadecimal notation (i.e., #rrggbb) when you need to define the color more granularly.

It is an ad-supported application.

YEN BAI (Bernama) – Nearly 10,000 pieces of unexploded ordnances (UXOs) have been destroyed during a three-month campaign in Vietnam's northern province of Yen Bai, Vietnam News Agency (VNA) reported.
More than 154 tonnes of UXOs on a 750 m2 site in Dong Cum village in Yen Binh district were destroyed by about 100 officers and soldiers.
Preliminary statistics show UXOs have claimed more than 42,000 lives and left some 62,000 people injured mostly in rural areas in the last four decades.
Over 1,500 people are killed and nearly 2,300 including children are injured every year due to UXO-related causes. The US army used more than 15 million tonnes of bombs and mines during the Vietnam War.
Vietnam is one of the countries most contaminated with UXOs. The National Steering Committee for Programme 504 said about 800,000 tonnes of UXOs are scattered across 6.6 million hectares or 20.12 per cent of the country's land mainly in the central region.
The Technology Centre for Bomb and Mine Disposal said over 88 per cent of communes in 63 provinces are polluted with UXOs.a

The objective of the TA is to promote green and pro poor economic development through the establishment of a sustainable transport system that will efficiently move people and goods. Being the second phase of the sustainable transport initiative, the TA will build on the findings of Phase I and produce a development framework for sustainable transport at the regional level. The TA will present (i) a singular vision, cohesive strategy, and clear cut directions for sustainable urban transport and the effective use of land (ii) a strategic development framework (policy, programming, and financing) (iii) a project development manual and (iv) a regional level action plan for clean and efficient energy use in transport.

Seven Healthy Skin Habits to Slow Down the Aging Process
posted on
Researchers and scientists have yet to find a way to stop the aging process, but taking good care of your skin can keep you looking younger, longer. Keeping up with a healthy skin management routine can reduce your risk of developing fine lines and wrinkles, age spots or hollowed cheeks, helping you look decades younger and enjoy a radiant, vibrant appearance all year long.
Cosmetic skin enhancement procedures can improve your looks, but there are several nonsurgical strategies that can keep your skin looking its best. Kick off your healthy skin routine with these seven habits:
1. Create an at-home facial routine. Cleansing, toning, exfoliating and moisturizing the skin doesn't have to wait for your next skin rejuvenation treatment. A simple home skincare regiment using quality products can help keep the skin clean and fresh every day. Make sure you wash off makeup before bed with a mild cleanser and toner, and exfoliate at least once per week for extra benefits.
2. Keep up with the exercise regiment. Vigorous aerobic exercises such as running, swimming, and even jogging help to elevate the heart rate, increase the heart rate and improve circulation. Activities that cause you sweat can also 'cleanse' the skin naturally, removing toxins from the body and improving other metabolic processes. Keep cardiovascular activities in your weekly workout routine for optimum skin benefits.
3. Don't skimp on sleep. Sleep is essential for cellular repair, and helps keep toxin damage at bay. Missing out on solid sleep can leave your skin looking dull, dry and weak; most adults need at least 7 - 8 hours of sleep per night, and your sleep cycle can also keep your metabolism in check.
4. Use a quality overnight moisturizer. Reducing breakouts and improving the texture and tone of your skin could be as easy as applying a cream or lotion overnight. Rebecca Tung, M.D., a dermatologist at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio suggest using moisturizers that contain antioxidants; these can reduce free radical damage so you wake up looking more refreshed and keep fine lines at bay (Source: Natural Health).
5. Watch that shaving routine. Shaving without the right cream or lotion can cause ingrown hairs, patches of dry skin, and even inflammation. Make sure you're using a fresh blade and using a moisture and emollient-rich lotion and after-shave cream as needed. Skin is much more vulnerable to damage after a shave, so make sure you steer clear of the sun and moisturize frequently as a restorative measure.
6. Load up on sunscreen. Protect your skin from UV damage – whether the sun's shining or not – with an SPF-infused moisturizer and makeup. Spending hours in the sun will give you a sun-kissed glow, but those powerful UV rays also break down collagen which leaves you more vulnerable to wrinkles. Protect your skin on a daily basis, and use collagen-stimulating products to restore skin to a healthy state.
7. Stick with the water bottle. Dehydration can leave skin looking dry, dull and pallid. Drinking at least 8 – 12 glasses of water per day can keep the metabolism in balance and encourages healthy cell production; this leads to better skin cell turnover so you're always producing a fresh layer of healthy skin every few weeks.
Maintaining healthy skin at any decade of life can be challenging, but there are several ways to reduce your risk of developing fine lines and other signs of aging. An advanced skincare program such as Obagi can help get your skin on a healthier track, especially if you're experiencing acne, skin pigmentation or noticing the start of fine lines and wrinkles.
Learn more about skin management, skin rejuvenation and cosmetic skin treatments in our information guide, or consult with a dermatologist in your area for the best skincare regiment for you.

Project B4 - Hsp70 peptide for in vivo imaging of tumours
The specific goals of project B04 will be to comparatively test our novel fluorescent and radioactive labeled Hsp70 tools, such as Hsp70 antibody, Fab fragment, single chain fragments and Hsp70 peptides for in vivo imaging of primary tumors and distant metastases in syngeneic and endogenous tumor mouse models. The best candidate will be utilized to define the minimum size of a primary tumor and metastatic lesion that is still detectable by the specific Hsp70 tool. Since Hsp70 is rapidly endocytosed from the plasma membrane into the cytosol of tumor cells, Hsp70 antibody-drug conjugates will be developed for use as a "theranostic".

April 2012
BeschreibungIn the modern era each new innovation poses its own special ethical dilemma. How can human society adapt to these new forms of expression, commerce, government, citizenship, and learning while holding onto its ethical and moral principles? Ethical Impact of Technological Advancements and Applications in Society explores the ethical challenges of these innovations, providing cutting-edge analysis of designs, developments, impacts, policies, theories, and methodologies related to ethical aspects of technology in society. It advances scholarship on both in established areas such as computer ethics, engineering ethics, and biotech ethics as well as nascent areas of research such as nanoethics, artificial morality, and neuroethics.

Away SouthMature
Wyrinther was the fastest horse that Seymour had ever ridden--or seen, for that matter. Even with the weight of three riders, and so precariously stacked, she wove through the trees with all the speed and grace of the wind, leaving their pursuers struggling far behind. But although it did not seem to bother the mare, Seymour found their seating situation rather uncomfortable and strove to adjust it as soon as possible. Giving Simon the reins and wedging his feet securely into the stirrups, the Aechyed reached up and removed Seoc from his shoulders, sliding him down behind Simon.
"Not...enough room...for that," Simon gasped, now pressed flat against the horse's neck.
"Sorry," Seymour apologized.
Seoc's eyes flickered open and he stared blearily up into Seymour's face. "Who...?"
"Who am I, or who are you?"
This question seemed to cause the young man physical pain. "What? I..." He trailed off and blinked hard, bringing his dark brown eyes into focus. "Could you repeat that, please?"
"Never mind. My name is Seymour de Winter."
"I'm Seoc," said Seoc.
"I know that," replied Seymour with the faintest hint of a smile. "Do you think I would break two unknown, scrawny, filthy, diseased men out of a madhouse on a whim?"
Seoc thought about it for a moment. "Well...probably no'. But you ne'er know."
Seymour brushed off the dirt that Seoc had left on his shoulders, wrinkling his nose at the results. "You'd better not have given me lice."
"Oh, I'm sure I have fleas as well," Seoc informed him, his tone matter-of-fact. "And Simon has things crawlin' on him that I canna even identify.
On that note, he lay his parasite-infested head against Seymour's chest and fell asleep.
The Aechyed grimaced, wondering for the first time whether the fifty thousand knamick was worth the trouble. Risk to his life? Fine. Possibility of capture and imprisonment? Also fine. But exposure to pestilence and countless contagions? Not fine. If he caught anything, he would be certain to demand extra payment.
And then there was the matter of Simon and Seoc. They stank. They smelled strongly of sweat and vaguely of mildew, as if their clothes were molding, but the most obtrusive of the stenches they carried was that of human waste. Seymour did not know how much longer he could stand it. The close proximity was beginning to turn his stomach. He would have to dunk them both in the river as soon as it was safe to do so.
They rode along the banks of the Waelyngar until dusk, at which point Seymour located a decent camping spot a short distance from the water's edge. He didn't want to tempt fate by lighting a fire, but he found a decent supply of food in Wyrinther's saddlebags, along with a bar of soap, spare clothing for the two humans, and various other useful odds and ends. The bags seemed to contain more than their apparent volume should have allowed; magic, Seymour surmised.

I wake up today, feeling worse than yesterday, still trying to wrap my head around the fact that grandma is gone.
I get dressed in my signature black long sleeves and black jeans. I don't bother putting make up on today, once everyone finds out about what happened at home yesterday I don't know how I will be treated.
I can't help but think about what Grandma Lizzie said either, what did she mean by "Come out of your shell."? Does she want me to open up more? If that's what she wants then I think that Scott might be someone I can open up to.
I go into English class and sit down in the back.
"Tick tock, tick tock," Theo Johnson starts deriding me.
"Hey Theo," Scott calls Theo over to him.
"What up Scott?"
"Come here I gotta tell you something," his was just loud enough that I can hear.
Theo walks over to where he is.
"Did you hear?" I hear him ask Theo.
"Hear what?"
"Kyle Teller got Mavis Ashford pregnant," he lies.
"No way," he says.
"Yea, I just heard it from Lilly Milne." he lies, he is lucky that Lilly Milne is the gossiper of the school, which helps his lie more believable.
"No way, I have to tell Nathan," Theo gets excited.
Scott winks at me, and then sits at his seat, as Theo skips to the front of the classroom.
The bell rings and class starts, Mrs. Westmore writes The Scarlet Letter on the board. That is one of the best Nathaniel Hawthorne books.
Scott sneaks a brief stare at me. Our eyes make contact and I smile, a real smile not a fake one like I usually puts on; this one isn't a mask. I start taking notes, or act like I'm taking notes; I have read this book so many times I know everything about it. I start writing a new poem. I usually write poems when I feel sad.
As I let go I start to face reality
That you are gone
That you left
As I let go
I start to cry
For me it was hard to say goodbye
I knew you had to die
Tear drops start to fill my eye
As I let go
I try and I try
I tried but I failed
The tears come down my face like a stream
As I let go
I become scared
Scared to be without you
I fall and land on my knees
Begging please
Hoping you won't go
Even though you have to
As I let go
I become stronger
As I let go
I realize I will never be the same
The bell rings and I rush out the door. I go to my locker and exchange my English materials for my history ones. I try to be quick so that Madison doesn't have to chance to give me misery. I already had enough from Theo.
I successfully switch my books. I get a text message from a number I haven't seen for years.
Hey Liz, I am sorry to hear about your Grandma, remember that even though we aren't close anymore it doesn't mean I won't be there for you. Text me if you need an ear. ~Sweet McKenzie~
I can't believe that McKenzie would go behind Madison's back and be my friend; but right now I am going to take all the support I can get now that Reagan is dead.
I get into history; Mr. Martin is sitting at his desk.
"Ms. Mathews, I am surprised to see that you are here at school," Mr. Martin says looking at a paper in the manila folder.
"What do you mean?" I ask scared.
"I am surprised that you aren't at home with your grandmother I heard that she wasn't doing well."
"My grandma is dead," I inform him.
"I'm sorry to hear that. I hope this doesn't affect your school work."
"It won't," I lie.
"I wish it would have happened sooner," Mr. Martin remarks.
I rush out of the room. I don't really care if I get a zero for the day. I can't take it anymore. Mr. Martin is cruel to me on normal days, but today, I can't be pushed over the edge. All this craziness of Scott Taylor being nice to me, Grandma passing, and McKenzie finally being my friend again I need to get out of my classes, out of the spotlight, I need books.
I rush to the library. The only place where I feel safe, alone, and the best place for someone like me.
"Hi Emilee," I wave to the librarian, who was also Grandma Gigi's best friend. They had been friends for over thirty years.
"Hi Veronica, I'm sorry to hear about your grandma. You can stay here as long as you need."
"Thanks," I head towards the back of the library, or as I like to call it my "sanctuary".
I get out my favorite book, The Raven, by one of the best poets who wrote about grief, Mr. Edgar Allen Poe.
I get to the part that explains how I feel.
Then the bird said "Nevermore."
I hear my name, "Lizzie?"
It's Scott, "Oh, hi Scott."
Why the hell would Scott be here? More importantly, how did he find my sanctuary? Nobody knows my sanctuary. Maybe this is a sign.
Maybe this is the person Grandma was telling me about in her letter. Even though Grandma of Scott in our talks, she never really met him. I'm thinking that she meant Scott. Nobody has tried to find me, especially someone who is in the popular group and just met me 3 days ago.
Scott is showing me real kindness, I remember what grandma wrote, "don't shy away when you meet someone who shows you genuine kindness," maybe I can talk to him.
"How did you find me?"
"McKenzie told me where you would be."
My eyes start to stream a river of tears.
"What's wrong?" he asks sliding down the wall where I am sitting.
I wipe my eyes, "Nothing."
"Lizzie, I know that's a lie."
"Why do you care?"
"Because I can see the pain in your eyes, McKenzie is worried about you; I am too."
"I get why McKenzie would be worried, but why you?"
He sighs, "Lizzie, I wear a mask in front of the basketball team, when I see someone in sadness I take off the mask and listen."
He scoots closer. I feel like I can tell him my secrets, this hasn't happened in a long time, I take a deep breath and I start to tell him the story.

Reading cam be dangerous.Mature
American Psycho.
I sat there in that chair and read and read and read, I passed out and I was woken again by star who had gone on missions for healthy food and had a tray laden with fruit and juices and newspapers, we ate and fucked and as she slept I read on lying on my side and bundled up in summer cool sheets.
I have to say, that the protagonist in that book, made me realize my own narcissism, and although I lacked his psychotic glee I could see what money could do to you what he fear of not fitting in could cause, I feared losing my mind, and was and am, probably halfway there and I was frightened by the idea that people walked the earth who were like that.
How I felt is pretty hard to describe, my whole head was screaming and juddering and I could hear a low bass sounding hum and a high pitched sighing and the content of the book scrambled around in my head aiming for a logic that was sadly lacking, the words screamed at me, but I couldn't put it down, and I wet the pages with nervous sweating.
For two days, I camped in that bed and read, and when I was done, I slept for two days taking only pisses and soup and tea when I woke.
And on the fifth day. I didn't know what I was supposed to do.
Now I had as a whole and as understanding, was something I saw as a sorry sort of semblance, I felt heavy and adrift I felt sickened by my own behaviour.
I wanted to go home, and home was a lie.
I snapped at Star and was rude to those around her; I threw tantrums that I couldn't express.
I was asked to leave and I went like a wounded puppy, unable to un-stick my tongue and speak of the internal crisis I felt. Probably would have been passed off as a 'bad come down' anyhow.
I went home to the house that had more of me in it.
Okay. Your probably wondering where the sick bit comes in?
It's harder to look back than you think it is, for someone with too many memories at least. So if you remember me telling you of my routine, here was the fifth day of that.
I was at home and one of my cats was clawing at the curtains and the others one licking his arse and I sat on the sofa staring at my notes on scams and I drew a blank.
I didn't want to do this anymore or did I just think I didn't? I had never ever, felt remorse or doubt or discontent before, ever! What the fuck was going on? I couldn't get the picture of Patrick (the books protagonist) out of my mind… I pictured my face on his, and his glittering maniacal eyes.
I had read books before that one book, and they had never had as much, impact as this one had had of me.
So I was wondering if it wasn't simply a fugue state brought on by the visuals I had had, and then the reading binge of a book best left for sober reading.
I had just flipped! But my heart wasn't into this excuse.
I lay down on the sofa and the cats came and curled up and I lay and I thought about me, my getting older, all that shit that confuses all the young and scares the old. And that is an imp called change; he is death's cousin, a polite and quiet invader.
Finally, I nodded off to sleep. I dreamt a dream that I still remember vividly now.

Behind the Locked DoorMature
The screams had ceased abruptly, but not before the mages had located their source, a small broom cupboard set some ways back from the main corridor. The door was locked, and they pounded upon it, shouting the names of those that they knew to be on the other side, hoping that someone would come to the door so that they wouldn't have to unlock it themselves. If they had to…well, that wouldn't be a hopeful prognosis for the twins' condition.
No one answered their shouts. No one opened the door.
"Well," sighed Alasdair, putting a hand on the knob. "There's no other way to it, then."
The locking charm that guarded the door, undoubtedly placed upon it by Henry, was a simple one, and Alasdair waved it aside with little trouble. But still he hesitated before pushing open the door, shooting a long, worried glance over his shoulder at his wife.
"Just open it, Alasd'thair. Get it over vith."
He started to open it, then stopped and looked backwards again. "Mia, there may be something dangerous in there. Would you—?"
"You von't tell me to go and to hide somevhere safe, Alasd'thair," she interrupted, her face set in determination.
"No," he responded. "That wasn't what I was going to say. I meant to ask you if you would…I mean, do you have my back?"
She nodded wordlessly, and Alasdair opened the door and walked cautiously inside.
"Rezyn," he breathed, coming to such a sudden halt that Mialina nearly ploughed into him. "What horror here transpired?"
She craned her head to see around him, looked, and saw.
For all appearances but for their shallow breathing, the Edmund twins might have been dead. They clung to each other, their faces the color of sour milk and contorted into the same expression of terror, eyes wide open and glassy. Although neither seemed to have any outward injury, trails of thick, dark blood ran from their nostrils, the corners of their mouths, their ears, and even, like crimson tears, from their eyes. Their bodies, sprawled on the floor, each clutching the other's limbs or clothing with such intensity that their knuckles had gone white and their tendons stood out, seemed to be paralyzed, likely from shock. They had, it seemed, been frightened nearly to death.
Mialina looked up as Alasdair put an arm around her. His swarthy face had paled somewhat and shone slightly with perspiration despite the cold. She glanced away from him and rested the side of own face upon his warm shoulder, feeling the soft touch of his deerskin-trimmed cloak upon her cheek. This, unlike his fearful countenance, she found comforting.
"Vhat d'tho ve d'tho, Alasd'thair?" she asked him. "Vhat d'tho we d'tho?"

By Andrea Kay, Gannett
For every pessimist spewing doom and gloom about the economy, there are just as many optimists.
One of them is McKinley Conway.
Founder of Conway Data Inc., a firm that specializes in research and futures studies, Conway says that if you really scrutinize the factors at play, you'll see that a lot of opportunity is here and more is on its way.
And that translates into jobs.
Dig a little deeper beyond the end-is-near headlines and you'll find that one of the key indicators things are looking up — something often overlooked — is the number of new industrial plants opening, he says in The Futurist.
For example, in 2008 Ohio landed the greatest number of new plants and expansions in the entire United States— a whopping 503. Texas had 497 projects. Michigan, Pennsylvania and North Carolina were the next top three.
In other words, the Rust Belt states ranked quite high in the number of new plants. But if you listen to the negative commentary and much of the news, you hear nothing but bad news about these areas.
This data "reveals the true strength of the U.S. economic system and its future," he says.
What's driving this growth are several factors. One is a fast-growing global population that has an urgent need for water, food, shelter, clothing and essential services.
Another is concern for personal security, which leads to the pressure to create "defense mechanisms, ranging from standing armies to city surveillance cameras and home intrusion alarms," he says. As a result, new industries will build tens of thousands of new facilities and create billions of new jobs.
Such emerging industries include water-supply systems that "will likely rely on huge seawater desalting plants" with desalting and potable water becoming big business — possibly the largest in the world.
Science and technology research development is another area that will rapidly expand into academic incubators, science parks and venture capital firms "that will spin off a stream of new science and technology breakthroughs," Conway says.
And from those, you'll see discoveries that will "range from giving sight to the blind and curing cancer to linking computers directly to our brains."
As governments commit to alternative energy sources, investment in clean energy and power plants will expand.
Don't overlook these areas either:
• Transportation systems that need to contend with congested roadways.
• The need to modernize highways.
• New travel frontiers such as space tourism and human-powered flight.
Agricultural technologies need to be developed to create more sustainable food production. Conservation projects need to be created to preserve and restore natural resources and environments.
The clean-energy economy is growing, says Aaron M. Cohen of The Futurist, who points to a Pew Charitable Trust study. Job opportunities in this area have increased more than twice as fast as the overall U.S. job growth rate since 1998, the study says.
The report says 770,000 white-collar and blue-collar green-energy jobs existed in 2007 in the U.S. That compares to 1.3 million jobs in traditional energy utilities.
Other research by Copenhagen Economics says more than 2 million jobs in renewable energy technologies could be created just in the European Union, which doesn't include jobs in energy-efficient construction and transportation.
And to add to all this promising news, is this: "Ohio ranked among the top five states with the most jobs in clean energy, energy efficiency and environmentally friendly production in 2007," according to the Pew report.
Who knew? You wouldn't if you didn't dig below the drum beat of bad news and negative sound bites.

Puff the magic dragon./
The Co-op, the world of local and alien teenagers buying junk food here, junk food there and the weirdos buying healthy food. Of course, our version of healthy is generally a pot of salad - which is full of salt and sugar.
I pick up a big bar of Dairy Milk - which has recently been brought by the Americans, I swear we're losing all our industrys. I decide - for some uncalculated reason - to go to the shortest, but slowest line. I stand there clicking my finger nails on the side of the isle, clucking my tounge. I see Shona evacuate the co-op, a packet of sausage rolls in her hand. I buy my chocolate and walk out.
We trudge back to school - me ahead as always, lost in my own world of my iPod music. My mind loops back to the C.I.D. lesson we had before. Shona's note,
Bye Mum,
love you ;)
love Shona.
My note on the other hand was quite, um, long.
Hello mother,
I'm going away, I don't know when I'll be back.
I have credit, don't call, I wont answer. Love Dee.
P.S. Unless someone died.
P.P.S. Or someone was hospitalised.
P.P.P.S. Or there is some decent gossip.
P.P.P.P.S. Or you just want to chat, 'cause you're lonely.
Love Dee.
Needless to say mine is a little long winded... I do wonder what it'll be like to run away though, would anyone notice, like my mum says, 'It'll be bad if you run away and no one even notices.'
I get to the cobbles by the church, and turn to the slow-pokes dawdling up the steep slope. Shona comes around the corner first, munching on a sausage roll, she strolls next to me as we wait for the others. The emerge from the corner, Beth singing at the top of her voice.
My mind wanders, making me think off Puff, my magic dragon. He left me for a TV career in Hollywood. How depressing.

Board To Pursue Reverse Spin Concurrent With Other Strategic Alternatives
Collectively, the strategic plan aims to:
"Today, we're announcing a strategic plan that we strongly believe will
enable us to accelerate Yahoo's transformation," said
"The Board is committed to the turnaround efforts of the management team
and supportive of the plan announced today. We have tremendous respect
for the thousands of Yahoos who work very hard to make the world a
better place," said
Strategic Plan for Growth
On this afternoon's fourth quarter and year end 2015 earnings call,
As a result of this four-point plan,
This press release contains forward-looking statements (including,
without limitation, the quotations from management) concerning
Non-GAAP Financial Measure
This press release includes the Company's expectations for adjusted
EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net earnings before of taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, other income, net (which includes interest), earnings in equity interests, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and other gains, losses, and expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing results. We present adjusted EBITDA because the exclusion of certain gains, losses, and expenses facilitates comparisons of the operating performance of the Company on a period to period basis. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results reported under GAAP. These limitations include: adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments and such payments reflect a reduction in cash available to us; adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in our businesses; adjusted EBITDA does not include stock-based compensation expense related to the Company's workforce; adjusted EBITDA also excludes other income, net (which includes interest), earnings in equity interests, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and other gains, losses, and expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing results, and these items may represent a reduction or increase in cash available to us; and adjusted EBITDA is a measure that may be unique to the Company, and therefore it may not enhance the comparability of our results to other companies in our industry. Management generally compensates for these limitations by also relying on the comparable GAAP financial measure of net earnings, which includes taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, other income, net (which includes interest), earnings in equity interests, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and the other gains, losses and expenses that are excluded from adjusted EBITDA. This measure may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies.
As mentioned above, we expect that the execution of our 2016 plan will
cause our Adjusted EBITDA run rate for the second half of 2016 to be
However, we are unable to provide a full reconciliation because we are unable to provide a forward-looking estimate of the other reconciling items between GAAP net earnings run rate and adjusted EBITDA run rate, including run rates of stock based compensation; restructuring charges; other income, net; provision for income taxes; earnings in equity interests; and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests; and other potential items such as advisory fees. Certain factors that are materially significant to our ability to estimate these run rates are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a full reconciliation to GAAP net earnings run rate is not available without unreasonable effort.
