"We're almost there," I smiled.
"Really? Cause it seems like we're in the middle of no where." he said sarcastically.
"Don't worry. It's just beyond those--" I was stopped by a stench I had smelled so many times. Werewolves. Damn.
"Stay here," I ordered, my voice serious. He caught on and was a good little boy and stayed there.
I ran quickly to my house and caught a glimpse of red hair.
I ran around the house and slammed myself into the nasty foul smelling creature. Then, I looked into her eyes. They glimmered with terror as tears streamed down. She was scared and I knew she wasn't old or a threat. I loosened my grip.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Crimson." was all she said.

Vice-Admiral James Wilkes Maurice (10 February 1775 – 4 September 1857) was an officer of the Royal Navy during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. Unlike his contemporaries who won fame commanding ships, Maurice gained accolades for his command of a number of island fortresses.
Maurice was employed on a number of ships prior to the outbreak of the French Revolutionary Wars, and by 1794 held the position of midshipman. He saw action in the English Channel and in the Western Approaches the following year, participating in the Battle of Groix and the Quiberon expedition. Good service in these actions led to his appointment to a number of acting commissions as a lieutenant. His career took a major step forward when Maurice, his lieutenant's commission by now confirmed, went out to the West Indies with Commodore Sir Samuel Hood.
Hood had decided to fortify Diamond Rock, in order to harass French shipping off the port of Fort de France in Martinique and Maurice, as first lieutenant of Hood's flagship, began to oversee the arduous task. After work was completed Hood commissioned the Rock and rewarded Maurice's efforts by putting him in command. For seventeen months Maurice and his men raided and interdicted shipping off Martinique, and proved a continual thorn in the side of the French. The arrival of a large fleet under Pierre de Villeneuve in May 1804 during the Trafalgar Campaign gave the French enough resources to assault the Rock. In the subsequent battle, Maurice held out for several days until the exhaustion of the Rock's supplies of water and ammunition forced him to surrender.
Maurice spent a brief period in command of a sloop, before being appointed governor of Marie-Galante, tasked with the defence of the island. His next posting was as governor of Anholt during the Gunboat War. In 1811 he fought off an attack from a much larger Danish force, inflicting heavy casualties. Maurice then returned to Britain and largely retired from active service, though he continued to be promoted. He reached the rank of vice-admiral before his death in 1857.
Family and early life[edit]
Wilkes was born on 10 February 1775 in Devonport, Devon.[1] He was nominally entered onto the books of Lieutenant James Glassford's HMS Monkey in 1783, but did not actually enter the navy until August 1789, when he became able seaman aboard Captain Alexander Mackey's 14-gun sloop HMS Inspector.[1][2] He served on Inspector until joining the 74-gun HMS Powerful under Captain Thomas Hicks in December 1792.[1][2] He visited the Cape of Good Hope during his time on Powerful, when the ship escorted a convoy of East Indiamen there.[1] Hicks was replaced by Captain William Albany Otway, and Powerful was ordered to the West Indies, but Maurice left the ship before she sailed, having been subpoenaed to give evidence in a case concerning a warrant officer accused of embezzling stores.[1] By the time his services were no longer required Maurice found himself unable to rejoin his ship and instead joined the 80-gun HMS Cambridge under Captain Richard Boyer in January 1794.[1] Cambridge was based at Plymouth with the Channel Fleet, and in May Maurice transferred to another ship on the station, the 32-gun HMS Concorde under Captain Sir Richard Strachan.[2][3]
Maurice remained with Concorde after Captain Anthony Hunt replaced Strachan and served in the Western Approaches based out of Falmouth.[3] Maurice saw action at the Battle of Groix on 23 June 1795 and then during the Quiberon expedition under Commodore Sir John Borlase Warren.[3] Warren gave Maurice an acting commission as a lieutenant in August aboard the 74-gun HMS Thunderer under Captain Albemarle Bertie.[3] Maurice returned to Concorde in January 1796, serving at first under his old captain Hunt, and when he was replaced, under Captain Richard Bagot.[3] He was briefly aboard Lord Bridport's flagship, the 100-gun HMS Royal George for three weeks in February 1797, before taking an acting commission aboard the 80-gun HMS Glory, a commission confirmed by the Admiralty on 3 April 1797.[2][3]
He was lieutenant aboard the 74-gun HMS Canada between 17 January 1799 and May 1802. The Canada was at the time the flagship of Commodore Sir John Borlase Warren, and served in the English Channel and off Minorca.[2][3] In late summer 1802 he was moved to become first lieutenant of the 74-gun HMS Centaur, captained by Murray Maxwell and the flagship of Commodore Sir Samuel Hood.[3] Centaur went out to the West Indies and aboard her, Maurice was present at the reduction and capture of the French and Dutch possessions of Saint Lucia, Tobago, Demerara and Essequibo.[2][3] He was landed with a party at Martinique on 26 November 1803 with orders to destroy the battery at Petite Anse d'Arlet, but was badly wounded when the battery's magazine exploded.[2][3] The Lloyd's Patriotic Fund awarded him a sword valued at £50 as a reward for his services.[3]
Maurice on Diamond Rock[edit]
Hood had by late 1803 decided to move against the two last remaining French naval bases in the Caribbean, at Gaudeloupe and Martinique.[4] Large numbers of privateers used the ports on the islands as a base from which to operate against British merchant shipping in the Caribbean. They had captured a number of valuable cargoes and were diverting British warships to protect the merchant fleets. Hood decided to blockade Martinique, and thus curtail the privateers and intercept supplies destined for the French garrison.[4] Patrolling off the bay at the southern end of the island, in which one of Martinique's two main ports, Fort-de-France, was located, Hood saw that if the British could occupy Diamond Rock, a large outcrop of rock at the entrance to the bay, it would allow them effectively to control the shipping approaching the ports on the western side, as the currents around the island made the easiest approaches mean passing within sight of Diamond Rock.[5] Maurice volunteered to lead a party of men to prepare the fortifications.[5]
Fortifying the rock[edit]
Maurice led a party of men onto the rock on 7 January 1804 and work immediately began on fortifying the small cove they had landed at with their launch's 24 pounder, and establishing forges and artificers' workshops in a cave at the base of the rock.[5] After fixing ladders and ropes to scale the sheer sides of the rock, they were able to access the summit and began to establish messes and sleeping areas in a number of small caves.[6] Bats were driven out by burning bales of hay, and a space was cleared by blasting at the top of the rock in order to establish a battery.[6]
In February a number of guns were transferred over from Centaur, with two 24-pounders being installed in separate batteries at sea level, another 24 pounder halfway up the rock, and two 18-pounders in the battery at the top. In addition to this the men had use of a number of boats, with one armed with a 24 pounder carronade, which were used to intercept enemy ships.[6] Marshall's Naval Biography, when describing the process of hauling the guns to the summit, recorded that
|Lieutenant Maurice having succeeded in scrambling up the side of the rock, and fastened one end of an 8-inch hawser to a pinnacle, the viol-block was converted to a traveller, with a purchase block lashed thereto, and at the other end if the hawser set up as a jack-stay, round the Centaur's main-mast. The gun being slung to the viol, the purchase-fall was brought to the capstern. In this manner the desired object was effected in the course of a week, during which time lieutenant Maurice and the working party on shore suffered most dreadfully from excessive heat and fatigue, being constantly exposed to the sun, and frequently obliged to lower themselves down over immense precipices to attend the ascent of the guns, and bear them off from the innumerable projections against which they swung whenever the ship took a shear...[3]
Commander Maurice, of Diamond Rock[edit]
By early February the guns had been installed and tested. The 18-pounders were able to command completely the passage between the rock and the island, forcing ships to avoid the channel. The winds and currents meant that these ships were then unable to enter the bay.[7]
With work complete by 7 February Hood decided to formalise the administration of the island, and wrote to the Admiralty, announcing that he had commissioned the rock as a sloop, under the name Fort Diamond.[5] Lieutenant Maurice, who had impressed Hood with his efforts while establishing the position, was rewarded by being made commander.[5] Diamond Rock was to be considered a captured enemy ship, and was technically treated as a tender to one of the boats stationed there, commissioned by the Admiralty as the sloop Diamond Rock, superseding Hood's use of Fort Diamond.[5]
Maurice had a party of around 100 men under his command on the rock, with the usual officers found on a British warship, including a surgeon, purser, and a junior lieutenant to command the small supply vessel.[5] A hospital was established, and food, gunpowder and ammunition were brought to the rock in boats, at first from Centaur, and then from Martinique, where it was purchased from sympathetic inhabitants.[5] Water also had to be brought from the island, and large cisterns were built to store it.[6]
For seventeen months Maurice held the rock, foiling several attempts by the French at Martinique to oust them. He reported the movements of Rear-Admiral Missiessy's fleet which arrived in the area during the Trafalgar Campaign, but in May 1805 a fleet under Pierre de Villeneuve arrived in Fort de France Bay, having briefly exchanged fire with the British on Diamond Rock as they did so.[9] Shortly after their arrival Maurice discovered that the main cistern, holding a month's supply of water, had cracked in some earth tremors, and the leak had been made worse by the vibration form the guns.[10] There was barely two weeks left, but fresh supplies were now unobtainable as a blockade of the rock began by a number of schooners, brigs and frigates.[10]
The fight for Diamond Rock[edit]
Villeneuve despatched a flotilla consisting of the 74-gun Pluton and Berwick, the 36-gun Sirène, a corvette, schooner, eleven gunboats, and between three and four hundred men, under Captain Julien Cosmao, to retake the rock.[11][12] A French force landed unopposed on 31 May, Maurice having assessed the overwhelming strength of the French, and having decided that it would be impossible to hold the lower stages withdrew his forces to defend the upper levels.[13] Cosmao began an intense bombardment while the infantry forced their way onto the landing stage, losing three gunboats and two rowing boats full of soldiers as they did so.[13] The attacking force had however neglected to bring any scaling ladders, and could not assault the sheer rock sides.[11] Instead they were forced to besiege the British forces in the upper levels. By 2 June, with his ammunition almost exhausted and water supplies running critically short, Maurice opened negotiations.[14]
At five o'clock Maurice agreed to surrender Diamond Rock.[14] The British had two men killed and one man wounded in the battle.[14] French casualties were harder to judge, Maurice estimated they amounted to seventy, the French commander of the landing force made a 'hasty calculation' of fifty.[14] Maurice and his men were taken off the rock on the morning of 6 June and put on board the Pluton and Berwick.[15] They were returned to Barbados by 6 June, and on 28 June Maurice faced a court martial for the loss of the rock.[11] The court unanimously acquitted him, noting
|the Court is of the opinion that Captain J. W. Maurice, the Officers and Company of His Majesty's late sloop Diamond Rock did every thing in their power to the very last, in the defence of the Rock, and against a most superior force ... [Maurice] did not surrender the Diamond until he was unable to make further defence for want of water and ammunition, the Court do therefore honourably acquit Captain Maurice accordingly.[11]
Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, who had arrived in the West Indies in pursuit of Villeneuve's fleet, apologised to Maurice for having arrived too late to prevent the fall of Diamond Rock.[3] Maurice returned to England in August and Nelson arranged for him to take command of the 18-gun brig-sloop HMS Savage on 20 August. Maurice was to join Nelson off Cadiz, but she could not be manned in time, and Maurice missed reuniting with Nelson prior to Nelson's death at Trafalgar.[3]
After two years in the Channel, Maurice and Savage sailed to the West Indies. While in command of Savage, in early December 1807 Maurice captured the Spanish privateer Quixote of Port Cavallo. Quixote was armed with eight guns and had a crew of 99 men. She was a "Vessel of a large Class, and fitted out for the Annoyance of the Trade to [Jamaica]".[16]
Command in the West Indies[edit]
Maurice again returned to the West Indies in July 1808, joining the fleet at Barbados under Sir Alexander Cochrane. He carried with him a letter of recommendation from the Admiralty, and Cochrane appointed him governor of Marie-Galante, a commission confirmed by the Admiralty on 18 January 1809 with a promotion to post-captain.[2][17] Marie-Galante had not been long in British possession, and there was the risk of an uprising. Maurice had only 400 soldiers under his command, many of whom were seriously ill.[17] A regiment was raised from the black population, but its loyalty was suspect.[17] The issue became moot as the French never attacked the island. When Maurice became ill he resigned his commission to return to Britain.[17][18]
Governor of Anholt[edit]
Maurice was made Governor of Anholt in August 1810, a Danish island in the Kattegat captured in May the previous year during the Gunboat War.[17][18] He had a force of 400 marines under his command, while British frigates patrolled the approaches to the island. These patrols prevented any Danish attack, except possible for a few weeks during the beginning and end of the winter freeze, when the supporting ships would be off station.[17][18] It was expected that the Danes or French would attempt to recapture it, and Maurice was forewarned of a Danish attack that began on 27 March 1811.[17] Maurice recorded that the enemy force attacked the British in their well prepared positions, but were driven off after four and a half hours of fighting. The Naval Chronicle recorded
|It is proper to mention, that the assaulting force consisted of a Danish flotilla, of 33 sail, amongst which, according to our Gazette account, were 18 heavy gun-boats, carrying nearly 3,000 men. Our little garrison, including officers, seamen, marines, &c, amounted to only 350 men; yet with the loss of only two killed and 30 wounded, we killed the Danish commander, three other officers, and 50 men; and took prisoners, besides the wounded, five captains, nine lieutenants, and 504 rank and file! Three pieces of artillery, 500 muskets, and 6,000 rounds of cartridge, also fell into our possession; and two gunboats, and 250 more prisoners, were taken by his Majesty's ships Sheldrake and Tartar, in their retreat!
|— The Naval Chronicle, volume 25, pp. 343-9
Though this account was probably exaggerated, the battle remained a crushing defeat for the Danes, who were unaware of the presence of the two frigates, HMS Tartar and HMS Sheldrake, when they made their attack.[18] Maurice was presented with a sword by the garrison, and continued at Anholt until September 1812.[17][18]
Later years[edit]
Maurice then returned to Britain and saw no more active service. He married Sarah Lyne of Plymouth on 5 October 1814, but she died of typhus in June the following year at the age of 21.[17][18] Maurice never remarried. He was promoted to rear-admiral on the retired list on 1 October 1846, and to vice-admiral on 28 May 1853.[17][18] He died at East Emma Place, East Stonehouse, Plymouth, on 4 September 1857 at the age of 82.[17][18]

text: Project Description John and Dona Vasey wanted to retire and move South to a warmer climate. John suffered a work accident so a life-span designed home with Universal Design (UD) principles at its core was the goal. They purchased the UD plan book that includes energy efficient details titled "Universal Designed Smart Homes for the 21st Century", from Architect Charles M. Schwab. They chose a plan and modified it with Charles to suite their tastes and site along the Grand Strand in South Carolina. The open floor plan promotes viscous circulation providing smooth and gracious movement throughout. The inside is an extension of the outside and the outside is an extension of the inside. No -step portals are seamless . The open floor plan flows together for easy access and is defined by varying, yet flush floor surfaces and differing ceiling treatments and colors. Dimmable- up lighting levels create evening excitement, fun and beauty. Open views from the kitchen to an aquarium, through the serving bar and then into the piano recital room move metaphorically as a musical composition while providing a visual connection and encouraging entertaining at home. The couple has older children who visit often so the plan is separated for multi-generational living with the Master Boudoir opposite their quarters. On the Guest side of the home is a large life-span designed bathroom, that, because of its larger footprint, doubles up nicely as a hurricane safe-room. The house within the house has safety and communication features already proven effective during a storm. The home opens up to a vast landscape and gentle slope to a fishing pond intuitively connecting with the colorful Aquarium . The home demonstrates that a life -span home can be beautiful providing serenity and piece of mind and designed for better living for years to come.

BeschreibungThis unusual book, the world of obituaries looks at obituaries as a rich source of information on cultural representation of gender. It examines obituaries published from 1938 to 1998 in three cultures -- Egypt, Iran, and the United States -- to analysis how women and men are represented in their death notices and how these representations have change over time. It also shows how obituaries, viewed as texts, at times converge within but often diverge from expected norms.Mushira Eid has applied quantitative and qualitative analytical techniques to 4,400 obituaries, using names, titles, and occupations as linguistic symbols of identity. Data were collected for a month at ten-year intervals to measure change. From them, she demonstrates differences within the world of obituaries, relates this world to the world at large, and constructs a model based on this comparison. Resulting facts are placed within the context of women's movements in the three cultures and other sociocultural and political events that influenced the perception of gender roles.The World of Obituaries offers a unique synthesis of information on women and public space in three cultures. It opens a new window on gender-related differences in language, both cross-culturally and historically, and invites readers to view obituaries in a new light.

In this comprehensive work, three of the foremost scholars on Einstein delve deeply into the life of the renowned yet still enigmatic scientist, from his birth in Germany up to his death, in New Jersey, in 1955. The encyclopedia is divided into three distinct parts: "The Personal & Family Sphere," "A Life in the Sciences," and "Identity & Principles." This book is full of fascinating information about Einstein, including romantic interests and rivals, myths and misconceptions, health issues, hobbies, Jewish identity and ties, and humanitarian work, just to name a few. There are also entries devoted to all of Einstein's theories, inventions, and lectures as well as a full chronology, black-and-white illustrations, and archival photographs. Three appendixes include select books and documentaries about his life, and there is an annotated bibliography for further exploration. This is an extremely well-organized and user-friendly reference title, thoroughly researched and accessible to the general public, students, and scholars alike. Highly recommended for public and academic libraries.

Tell me if this seems familiar: you know a lot about what you could and should do to drive your business forward... but you can't seem to get yourself to do most of it.
Call it procrastination, call it inner resistance, call it being a lazy bastard, it all amounts to the same thing: the incredibly frustrating experience of being stuck for apparently no reason.

In previous posts & podcast episodes, we've talked a lot about minimum viable products, getting businesses off the ground on a shoestring budget and the value of releasing rapidly.
If you follow the advice you find here, you'll soon find yourself with a product or service ready to present to the world and perhaps you even orchestrate a small launch for it.
Now, what if you do all this and get virtually no result? What if no one buys your minimum viable product, no one signs up to your launch list and you get no feedback from the market? Is it time to give up or are there other options?
Discover the answer in today's podcast episode...Continue reading
In previous posts, we've covered the importance of launching your business by creating a minimum viable product – the smallest possible version of your product idea that you can release and get a real-world response to.
Personally, I swear by this approach and related concepts like the lean startup method and rapid implementation.
But what about the downsides of this approach? What if your minimal product is too minimal and your early users turn away in disappointment? Isn't it even deceptive to promise a solution and then only deliver a very minimal concept of one?
These are the questions we address in today's podcast episode…
A tried and true method of getting more traffic and getting traction for your business is collaboration. Specifically, collaboration with people and companies that are ahead of you in the game – those that have greater reach than you and can give you access to audiences you can't otherwise reach.
This is the basis of guest posting, JV promotions, cross-selling and many other promotional strategies.
But how exactly can you contact an influencer who could help your business in such a way that you don't just get ignored? Listen to today's podcast episode to find out:

With Arm Your Sampler he played live all around Italy with names like Kiki, Kevin Saunderson and Don Rimini.
Now residing in Madrid and working as a solo artist, his first EP was released on Tunz Tunz Records in August and brought a strong Detroit techno taste while heavily referencing the old school and deep house. 'Stab Fever EP' is his second full solo outing and comes as Andee finalises preparations for a new live solo - a mixture of deep funky house with that all important classic feeling.

Smoking has been proven to be a sure shot way to welcome cancer the world over. While you are pregnant, you have to be extra careful when it comes to smoking or hanging around smokers. While the habit is easy to shake off if you are not an addict, if you have been a chain smoker, you may face a great challenge to curb the same once you get pregnant. Withdrawing from smoking while pregnant can be a huge struggle for those who are used to the nicotine rush.
Women who smoke have slimmer chances of conceiving and once they do, they need to alter their lifestyle tremendously – the one that does not have cigarette puffs anywhere! This is easier said than done, particularly for the groups who have been smoking for many years and the habit has become a core part of their life routine.
It would be useful to understand the effects of smoking during pregnancy and how it affects the growth of your baby inside the womb.
What Are The Dangers Of Smoking During Pregnancy?
It is stated that smoking is more dangerous than alcohol or even drugs. While all of the mentioned habits are disastrous for a baby, smoking in particular does a significant amount of damage to the developing fetus inside the womb.
- Babies born to smokers are underweight, underdeveloped and born with many physical and mental defects. Most times, these babies go on to become the individuals with lesser cognitive and intellectual capabilities as compared to their peers.
- Cigarette smoke consists of life taking chemicals like cyanide and lead. There are 4000 chemicals and 60 other cancer causing contents in cigarettes that directly affect and hinder the healthy development of babies while inside the uterus.
- The nicotine and carbon monoxide present in cigarettes cut off the oxygen supply to the growing fetus by a large ratio, impacting the overall growth. Nicotine cuts off the oxygen supply through umbilical cord by narrowing the blood vessels, making it very difficult for the baby to breathe inside.
- The red blood cells that carry oxygen begin to carry carbon monoxide to the baby instead, resulting in many growth defects.
- Smoking during pregnancy leads to adverse results such as miscarriage, still birth, premature birth, low birth weight and babies born with deformities.
- Women who smoke during their pregnancies may go on to have slimmer or absolutely no chances of conceiving again.
[ Read : Alcohol During Pregnancy ]
5 Serious Effects Of Smoking On Your Baby:
Because of the oxygen cut down during pregnancy as a reaction to smoking nicotine and carbon monoxide, your baby's overall development is significantly hindered during the three trimesters. This results in many physical and mental deformities in the newborns. Sometimes, the newborns have minimal chances of survival if some of the defects cannot be dealt with during the post natal care.
Here are some of the serious effects caused on the newborn babies:
1. Low Birth Weight:
Babies born to the smoking mothers are usually born with lowest birth weights.
- This is a direct result of cigarette smoking during pregnancy.
- The babies born with a significant low birth weight often require serious post natal care to cope with the post-delivery weight management.
2. Small Body And Lungs:
Babies are born with small bodies and underdeveloped lungs. The delayed lung formation is because of nicotine content in smoking.
- Most times, the babies are delivered with lungs not fully developed, which means that they can't breathe on their own.
- The newborns with breathing difficulties require assistance of a respirator in the initial few days after the delivery till they are self-sustaining with manageable lungs.
- Some babies are also strongly prone to Asthma and are exposed to the sudden death infant syndrome (SIDS).
[ Read : Caffeine During Pregnancy ]
3. Defective Heart:
Mothers who would have smoked even in the first trimester will give birth to babies with defective heart.
- Smoking causes congenial heart defects in the growing fetus, thus resulting in newborns with the same condition even after delivery.
- The babies are either born with right ventricular outflow tract obstructions (obstructed flow of blood from the right side of the heart into lungs) or atrial septal defects (openings between the upper chambers of the heart).
4. Weak Cognitive Function:
The brain development of the baby gets directly impaired due to smoking.
- Babies born to smokers have serious cognitive issues such as learning disorders, behavioral problems, low IQ, etc.
- Most times, these babies will grow up to become slow and disoriented.
- Few cases also turn into chronic subjects of mental disorders requiring life-long medical attention.
5. Physical Deformities:
Babies born to smokers are likely to be born with physical deformities as well.
- This is mostly due to the effects of nicotine and carbon monoxide.
- The oxygen cut off to the baby via umbilical cord causes uneven physical growth pattern.
6 Measures To Tackle Smoking:
When you are pregnant, it becomes more of a personal responsibility to mend your addictions. This is another life that we are talking about, and what you practice in the form of physical and emotional routine becomes a major part of your baby's. If you are an addict, you are understandably in a tougher situation than the rest, as it is not easy to shake off the habit just like that.
[ Read : Green Tea During Pregnancy ]
Adopting certain useful measures should help you address the issue of smoking during pregnancy:
- Medical counseling and therapy to keep a tab on withdrawal period. You may require professional help with serious addiction.
- Support groups are available to share and understand. Do not hesitate to talk it out with those sailing in the same boat.
- Emotional support from your partner and loved ones in kicking the habit helps to a great extent.
- Frequent health checkups to track your baby's growth inside as you fight it out will keep you in charge of the situation.
- Being educated and informed about the seriousness of the issue motivates you to deal with the addiction better.
- Strong willed efforts to stay away from the habit wins the battle hands down.
[ Read : Steroids During Pregnancy ]
Making an honest, responsible effort to kick the habit makes a lot of difference to you and your baby. Talk to your doctor to get more inputs on altering the lifestyle and making healthier and better choices.

DELTA Goodrem is a high-maintenance lady - and so is her waxwork lookalike, which has been the target of a sustained campaign of vandalism since it was installed at Madame Tussauds six months ago.
Wax artists are forced to repair The Voice judge's replica almost daily as a result of a litany of abuse by visitors to the Darling Harbour tourist attraction.
Studio manager Zoe Walton said Goodrem's plastic progeny had suffered 500 "incidents" to her face and skin while visitors had also plucked off 11 sets of eyelashes. She said stressed staff were also continually reapplying the model's lipstick and redoing her hair.
"Delta's definitely the most (damaged)," Walton said.
"She needs an awful lot of care and attention, shall we say. While minor scratches and abrasions are common across all the 70-plus mannequins, Delta needs the most TLC from staff.
"She's quite famous for her eyelashes and her heavy mascara look so people like to tug out her eyelashes quite often," Walton said.
The vandalism has been so intense Walton said they had even changed her dress because visitors had torn more than 50 crystals off her original gown.
"We all worry what she's going to look like each day," she said.
"We in the maintenance team say to each other, 'Oh who's going to do her today?' It's certainly hard work."
Statues standing alongside Goodrem - Johnny Depp and Bruce Willis - attracted nowhere near the same damage.
Goodrem fared little better in real life, forced to retire six songs into her show at the State Theatre after scalding her legs on a steam machine backstage. "I'm really sorry I can't do this. I feel like I'm going to faint," the singer told the audience.

Selective screening for inborn errors of metabolism — past, present and future

Selective screening for hereditary metabolic disorders has developed from a highly specialized activity, provided mostly by research oriented scientists, to an important diagnostic tool in the work-up of paediatric patients. A brief overview is given of the present status of selective screening in Europe, the USA and Israel including the distribution of centres and resources for diagnosis, therapy and follow-up. Current status and most pressing problems vary widely between different countries. Most countries still lack an organized network of clinical genetic centres which are capable of competent and comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic services. For example, it must be assumed that more than 60% of patients with inherited metabolic diseases, which could be diagnosed nowadays, remain un(mis)diagnosed in former Western Germany. Early diagnosis and treatment are important determinants for a successful approach towards inherited metabolic diseases. Therefore, screening and therapy for inborn errors of metabolism has to be organized in clinical genetic centres, each serving a population between 2 and 4 million. The quality of the services provided depends on good pre-and postgraduate training of physicians (paediatricians) in the field of metabolic diseases, good co-operation between the referring physician and the clinical genetic centre and a broad spectrum of highly specialized metabolic investigations in the respective centre. The institutionalization has to include licensing of laboratories, directors and personnel, as well as quality control and proficiency testing. The size of the centres cannot be judged on the basis of the work involved with selective screening for inborn errors of metabolism alone. The number of diagnosed patients suffering from treatable metabolic disorders, such as those of amino or organic acid metabolism, are cumulative. The patients need lifelong dietary therapy, clinical assessment and biochemical monitoring.

The Starke County Sheriff's Department investigated a fatal accident late Friday afternoon.
According to the accident report, Edward O'Boyle was traveling eastbound on State Road 10 when 93-year-old William Lemke pulled into the roadway from the Highland Cemetery, attempting to go westbound on State Road 10. O'Boyle told police he was unable to avoid striking Lemke's vehicle on the driver's side. Lemke was pronounced dead at the scene. O'Boyle sustained minor injuries. Both O'Boyle and Lemke are from North Judson.
A witness told police that she saw Lemke stopped at the stop sign at the entrance of Highland Cemetery. She said that the sun was about to set and that it was hard to see oncoming traffic.

It brings back memories of her experiences in The Netherlands during the war, memories of betrayal. September 1944. Rachel is in trouble when her hiding place is bombed by allied troops. She gets in contact with a man from the resistance and joins a group of Jews who are to be smuggled across the Biesbosch by boat to the freed South Netherlands. Germans from a patrol boat murder them all however. Only Rachel is able to escape. She is rescued by a resistance group under the leadership of Gerben Kuipers. When Kuipers' son is captured after trying to smuggle weapons, he asks Rachel to seduce SS-hauptsturmführer Ludwig Müntze. Soon she will find out the attack in the Biesbosch wasn't a coincidence.

Well last night was bittersweet! Honestly, when I first requested to recap Southern Charm, I certainly didn't think I'd enjoy it–I just wanted to have an excuse to chronicle the inevitable train wreck. However, I'm sad to see it come to an end. Heck, I even started to kind of like Thomas Ravenel (and, no, I'm not drinking!)! Cameran Eubanks is utterly charming, Whitney Sudler-Smith's mother Patricia totally stole the show, and Shep Rose, well, um, he's got great fratty hair. Even Craig Conover grew on me a bit, and I'm not totally ashamed that we will soon be alums from the same law school. We all know that T-Rav has welcomed a baby girl with Kathryn Dennis and is residing in Florida (though still planning to run against Lindsay Graham according to The State), and Cameran married herself an anesthesiologist, so I am not counting my chickens that there will be a season two. I guess we'll have to bask in last night's finale to dull the pain.
The show begins where it left off last week, with Whitney's admission that he too hooked up with Kathryn around the same time frame as her "fling" with Shep and her pregnancy scare with Thomas. Prior to their con-bro-sation, the thirty second recap of the season courtesy of Cameran and Craig is pretty spot on and hilarious, I must say. Whitney tries to explain that he feels "dark and sleazy" for keeping this secret from his best friend, and he hopes that T-Rav will tread lightly in pursuing a relationship with her given his future political aspirations. Thomas looks gobsmacked. When did chicks start hooking up as often and as haphazardly as dudes?

THERE'S a pattern developing here. Two singles up on Friday, both down on Saturday, two up on Sunday and both down on Monday.
So we know what's going to happen tonight – and hopefully people will have money left from day one at Cheltenham to have a punt.
I counted myself a little unlucky on Monday – unlucky because I didn't side with Lazio and Arsenal despite fancying both. Fiorentina I said could have an eye on Thursday's Europa League clash with Roma and that looked the case as they were crushed 4-0. Unfortunately I went with both teams to score and not over 2.5 goals for the goals single. My main tips at Old Trafford were Arsenal draw no bet and under 2.5 goals
The Super Single was Juventus -2 AH against Sassuolo and they never looked like covering although won the game with a Paul Pogba special late on.
Tonight sees the return of the Champions League with Real Madrid 2-0 up as they welcome Schalke and Porto and Basel tied at 1-1 after a first leg in Switzerland.
Incredibly Real boss Carlo Ancelotti is being questioned by fans after a weekend 1-0 defeat at Athletic Bilbao that allowed Barcelona to take over at the top. However, in Europe there's no stopping Real who are going for a record 11th Champions League win on the spin – they currently share the milestone with Bayern Munich.
Schalke will be without Kevin-Prince Boateng, Julian Draxler and Jefferson Farfan as well as keeper Ralf Fahrmann and Dennis Aogo. Four others are doubtful.
Real, who have won 11-2 on aggregate in three ties versus the Germans, are 4-7 with bet365 to cover the minus one handicap.
Cristiano Ronaldo is as usual the obvious choice to score first and is 3-1 with Ladbrokes and just 4-7 at Betfred to net at any time. Ronaldo has scored 58 goals in 58 Champions League games for Real and netted five goals and against Schalke in three games. Only against Ajax and Galatasaray has he netted more against in this competition.
Porto were by far the better side in Switzerland – they had 15 shots to Basel's one – and have a great home record. I'll be on them to win at 9-20 with bet365 even though they are missing top scorer Jackson Martinez.
Cristian Tello and Yacine Brahimi should see them home and I'm looking at Tello to score at 19-10 with BetVictor.
In Scotland Rangers expect close to a full house for the visit of Queen of the South in the Championship. Fans will welcome the new board but will the players rise to the occasion?
I'm not sure if they will until a new manager is appointed so it's no bet for me. Rangers are a best 4-6 at BetVictor while Queens are 9-2 at Coral.
I tipped Inverness to KO Raith in the Scottish Cup at the weekend and I'm standing by them in the rescheduled tie. The winners face a big semi-final clash with Dundee Utd or Celtic and I expect ICT to win at 4-11 with Coral.
My top treble in today's Daily Record is Real -1, Porto and Inverness and I'm sticking with that.
For the Super Single I'm siding with Bristol City at Yeovil even though some people have voiced doubts about midweek form going out the window. However, I'm pleased to hear City boss Steve Cotterill say he'll make little or no changes to a side chasing a fifth win in a row as they charge to the League One title.
It's bottom v top so a price of close to evens is too good to miss and hopefully form won't go out the window tonight.
I looked at Bradford away to Tony Mowbray's Coventry but their boss Phil Parkinson is making changes during a hectic spell that will see them play tonight, Saturday and against Reading in the FA Cup quarter-final replay on Monday.
Lower-league games in Scotland are often best left alone but having won 2-0 at leaders Morton on Saturday I'd be tempted to have a nibble at Forfar at 8-5 with boylesports at Peterhead.
For my goals bet I'm going with both to score at Elgin v Clyde – two teams still hoping to battle into a League Two play-off spot. Elgin have scored 12 and conceded nine in their last four games so a clean sheet is as likely as me picking a winner at Cheltenham today.
Barry Ferguson's Clyde have started to pick up results and are unbeaten in six – scoring in all of them. Both have scored in four of the last six meetings in the Highlands.

The Geoengineering Dilemma
Should geoengineering be regulated multilaterally before rogue countries experiment with our collective future?
By Evan O'Neil, William Vocke | October 13, 2010
What if global warming can't be halted by reducing emissions?
Geoengineering projects are proposed as stopgap measures that could tilt the atmospheric balance back toward cooler temperatures.
Some call for spraying sulfur dioxide in the stratosphere to create a reflective haze, blocking solar radiation. Others propose spreading iron in the oceans to encourage the growth of marine organisms, absorbing carbon dioxide.
But is this wise? While humanity is a problem-solving species, our natural geoengineering—through fuels we burn, crops we plant, and cities we build—is part of the problem.
According to climate scientist James Lovelock, organisms that alter the environment to their own benefit are likelier to survive. A self-regulating flux has thus emerged between the plants, plankton, microbes, and fungi that keep our atmosphere livable—life makes life possible and has done so for millions of years.
Does this concept hold for relatively young and precocious humanity? Will blunt industrial methods actually control climate, or could they backfire in local and global ways?
One concern is that geoengineering presents a cheap fix that will lessen the incentive to reduce pollution. Another fear is that geoengineering will only mask the climate problem. Finally, climate modification may be weaponized to induce drought or flooding in an enemy's territory.
Global warming now makes it impossible to limit environmentalism to one country. So should geoengineering be regulated multilaterally before rogue countries experiment with our collective future? Alternatively does the problem demand research and action now despite the risks? What do you think?

Jarrod Boyle's Sparring W/ The Demolition Man...
So as I was looking through sparring videos I came across this. Then I decided to see who Jarrod Boyle was. He's an Australian heavyweight who trained at Golden Glory in the past. Here's what he had to say about his encounter with Overeem. It's quite comical.
Although he has been fighting for years, it has taken Dutch heavyweight Alistair Overeem some time to reach the kind of status that he now enjoys. And while he fought around at a mid level for almost 10 years, The Demolition Man has cetainly made up for lost time. Unbelievably, he currently holds the Strikeforce MMA Heavyweight Championship belt, the Dream MMA Heavyweight Championship belt and in December he conquered the peak of world kickboxing by taking out the 2010 K-1 World Grand Prix Championships, too.

After a very impressive BBQ at the hostel on my last night it was time to head off.. My decision back to Rio!! Lets have it..
I met a lot ...

... to boot (I�m being PC now). I�m sure most of you know the story but just in case you don�t let me run through it real quick. I went to this samich shop called Potbellys every morning basically to get a ham and egg samich.

I just want things to be simple now and I figure I will come back with Kelly to spend some time in Brazil, because I didn�t even get to be in Carnaval or visit Bahia, so there are many reasons that I will come back here in the future. So I will save the falls until then. Believe me, it is the best decision for now. I prolly wouldn�t appreciate the falls if I had to sit on a bus that long right now.

Got back to the hotel around 6 and decided there and then thay we had seen pretty much everything we wanted to see in Rio and in the interest of time saving we decided to head to Foz do Iguazu the next day. Stayed in the hotel room as were too wrecked to head out but still managed to get drunk, playing drinking games. Beer only 31 cent a can. ...

This review is from: ADATA XPG V1.0 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model AX3U1600W4G9-RB
Pros: Fairly good price. Easy installation. Not too bulky. The black color matches my computer chassis.
Cons: None yet.
Other Thoughts: Can't really say much. It installed like RAM, works like RAM, and performs like RAM should. For the price it was a really good buy.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: NZXT Source 530 CA-SO530-M1 Matte Black Steel / Plastic / Mesh ATX Full Tower Computer Case
Pros: I can't say enough good things about this case. It's got plenty of room inside, which is only natural considering it's a fairly large case.
The customization options are absolutely crazy, with each fan "zone" giving you multiple configuration options. Hell, you can even install a 200mm fan behind the front panel if you want! It's got tons of air circulation options. Have a fan on the bottom of your PSU? No problem! This chassis is designed to allow that too! It comes with 2 fans already pre-installed and you can easily order more from the company if you want all your fans to match.
I thought, at first, the LED's on the back panel were just a gimmick until I actually had to climb behind my computer and plug something in. No flashlight needed anymore! In addition, the "button" placement on the front of the system is very well thought out.
The large window in the one side of the chassis doesn't make the side panel flimsy when removed.
I love the hidden fan hub, which makes plugging in all the case fans really easy, not to mention the mounting brackets! Even with the side off the chassis you'd never know I had a Solid State Drive mounted behind the motherboard.
All the hard drives are easily removed, with no screws required for anything in the 5 1/4 and 3 1/2 bays. The rear of the 3 1/2 bays all face the side of the chassis as well, making hiding your cables an absolute breeze. Plenty of tie-up locations as well, to keep those cables under control and where you need them to be.
There's no doubt about it, a true computer professional built this chassis. It's even got removable (for cleaning) air filter screens on the air intake zones (front and bottom of chassis) to keep dust out of your computer!
Cons: Someone with very little technical knowledge might have a hard time installing their equipment into this case. The hardware (nuts/bolts) came in nice packaging but the labeling on the packaging vs the labeling in the instruction manual was very confusing.
Other Thoughts: The only thing missing from this chassis are some extension cables for the fans. I find that most chassis fans come with very short cables and it's a real challenge to get them to reach the fan hub on the back side of the motherboard mount. I'm not calling that a Con though, as it's more the fault of the fan manufacturer than the chassis manufacturer.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: AMD FX-8320 Vishera 8-Core 3.5 GHz (4.0 GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W FD8320FRHKBOX Desktop Processor
Pros: The processor runs like a champ. My computer is so much faster than when I was running a Dual Core. Installation was easy and, even though I knew what I was doing, they had excellent instructions provided. Processor cooler and fan are included, never see my CPU over 29'C even when gaming. Heat transfer pad was also provided.
Cons: The provided CPU fan is very noisy, even at low RPM. When it revs up to high RPM, like when playing a game, it sounds like your computer is getting ready to take off and fly around the room. You'll need an aftermarket CPU fan (or fan/cooler combo) if you want to tame the noisy beast.
Other Thoughts: The packaging of the entire product was very nicely done. CPU was kept confined and protected from any movement. Would have been nice to get heat conductive paste instead of a pad, but that's nitpicking.READ FULL REVIEW

The first step in successful interviewing is preparation. When you receive a call inviting you in for an interview, ask what the interview will be like (format, length, etc.) This way you will know in advance what type of interview to prepare for.
Fundamental areas to address in preparation include:
Personal background. You should be comfortable discussing your education, work experiences, etc., and how they bring value to the employer.
Needed materials. You need to find out in advance what materials you will need to bring to the interview. You may want to bring work samples or other materials to demonstrate your skills. Be sure to bring extra copies of your resume.
Organizational and field knowledge. Research both the company and the industry so that you can speak somewhat knowledgeably about both during the interview.
Logistical preparation. Make sure that you know exactly where you are going, how you will get there, how long it will take, and that you leave adequate time for the interview. You should arrange for back-up childcare and transportation if necessary; try making a trial run to the interview location if possible. Also find out where to park and which part of the building to enter.
Clothing and appearance. Dress and grooming is key. Three things to keep in mind are:

Something in piecesMature
The girl with the raven black hair was not long for the world. She lay naked on the bed, empty eyes to the ceiling. Hazy thoughts drifted through her drug hazed mind, but she was unable to focus on any of them. It had been ten hours since Natalie had left, and she had not moved since except for a couple hours earlier, when she had grabbed the ecstasy and scissors from the nightstand drawer.
It was raining hard, harder then she could ever remember. The constant rapping of the drops provided a background symphony to her ordeal. It was perfect for her mood. The beat of the water changed and twisted, dancing on the fading remnants of her trip. Her wrists hurt, like nothing else had ever hurt before, but she had to take it. One last little bit of pain, and then it would be done.
She didn't think it would be like this when she made the decision. She thought it would be much warmer and fuzzier, something to take her home. It wasn't. It was cold, miserable, and painful. Not what she expected.
The pain in her heart is worse than her wrists. Natalie. The girl with the raven black hair loved her, but Natalie didn't love her back. Natalie carried on the relationship as something trifling, amusing, and then broke it off when it got too serious. For the girl with the raven black hair, there is nothing worse. It is realizing someone who you thought cared, maybe even loved does not. It destroyed her.
And this is where she has ended up. At the end of an ecstasy high, bleeding profusely from self inflicted cuts in both wrists, dying slowly. She sighs deeply, and sinks deeper into the swallowing haze. She just wants it to be over, just wants it to be gone.
She rolls over off the bed and, barely realizing it, hits the floor with a violent thump. She doesn't feel it. But someone in the apartment below hears it. Her eyes drift to a close and she curls up on the hardwood floor. Everything becomes dark and soft, slight and without definition. She is on the edge now, slipping to the point of no return.
She doesn't hear the rain anymore. She doesn't hear the insistent knocking. She doesn't hear the loud, sudden crash, and she doesn't hear the blaring sirens that carry her off into the night.

I think there's a good chance Kipper's out for even longer than the two weeks estimated. MCL sprains are tricky and Kipper's condition was upgraded to a second grade, which Backlund also suffered and he's scheduled to miss 4-6 weeks. Irving can't play every game while Kipper's out; he's barely played at all in the last year (huh I wonder why) and over playing him now could be disastrous. There's a back-to-back at the end of this week and I could see MacDonald starting that.
And personally, I don't buy Feaster's claim that MacDonald was always a target. The lawyer-speak is strong with that one.
I don't buy it either. Kipper may very well be out for 2 weeks but like u said, Im gona say its longer then that. Given that he's been out for a week now and that is similar to Backlunds injury, another 3-4 weeks seems like the real time frame. I also think its harder to recover from an MCL sprain as a goalie then it is for a player
