The Awakening
Izzy stood under a burnt out street lamp shivering in the cold rain. She'd been walking for hours. She fled her home and all that she knew two nights earlier. She though briefly of her mother and of her father. As cruel as the man was she still felt some connection to him, a sadness that she couldn't explain. The rain woke her up, she'd been dreaming of Icarus. He came to her, said she must keep moving because the Queen was looking for her. She opened her backpack and checked that the book stayed dry. Along the way, she found several plastic shopping bags and wrapped her prize away. Just seeing its shape and feeling the weight comforted her. Images of symbols and words in a long dead language floated before her open eyes. She though about the night she left, still not fully understanding what happened or how she did it. What power did she have? Why did the Queen want it back so badly? Surely, a mortal like her posed no real threat to an immortal queen.
The city looked very different at night as she walked alone on the near empty streets. Flickering street lamps cast unnatural shadows along the worn brick walls. Unfamiliar noises came from dark alleyways echoed through the brick lined jungle. Ahead she spotted a restaurant with a bright glowing sign flashing "open 24 hours." The smell of greasy food drifted to her, but she had no money. What could she do? I could pretend I'm lost, she thought. Lost and hungry, the thought of it was more real than she wanted to admit. She took a breath and pushed the door open.
She squinted from the florescent lights overhead. The glass door closed behind her and a small bell rang. She looked back at her own reflection, I look like a wet cat, she thought. Her bangs plastered to her head and her coat dripped into a puddle just as the waitress walked up.
"Oh my, you're soaked!"
She looked up at the woman, not sure what to say. She followed the curve of her face and studied the color of her wild multicolored hair. Jessica, the name came to her. Her name is Jessica. She's 23 years old and will die when she' 44 in a car accident. Izzy wasn't sure why she knew this but she did.
"I…I was walking in the rain."
She nodded. "Do you want something warm to eat?"
She picked up a menu from behind her and walked into the dining room with Izzy a step behind. Several patrons looked up at her but gave little notice as she walked by. Every face she looked into she felt she knew them, she felt a connection, something that she couldn't describe but felt so natural.
"Izzy", someone whispered. She looked around the cafe but no one looked at her. "Outside", the voice came again. Across the street from the café, a shadow moved between buildings. The figure stopped in mid stride and looked her way then disappeared as it rounded the corner.
The figure "felt" friendly. The girl stopped and she sat down and took the menu from her. She wasn't sure how she would pay and she was too hungry to think about it now.
"Do you need a little time?"
She shook her head, "Grilled cheese and a milk please."
The girl nodded and walked away with the menu.
Izzy looked out the window searching for the figure again but saw nothing out of the ordinary.
Her back grew warm and she remembered the book. She reached into her bag, and caressed its cover, traced her fingers over the designs. She felt comforted, relaxed, safe. She closed her eyes. Energy flowed around her forming arcs of light and…
"Is everything ok?" the multicolored hair girl asked.
"Is everything ok? You've not touched your food."
Her grilled cheese and milk sat on the table. She bit into the sandwich, it was cold but she ate it anyway. It was the best she'd ever tasted. The girl shook her head and walked away.

I've had a 2TB My Book Essentials for about 2 months now, I use it to store all my extra stuff and now all of a sudden its not being read by my computer I've gone under device management and it shows up there and if it does show up in My computer it'll just show as a Local Disk and I can't get into it or it'll say I need to format my drive before I can use it Could someone tell me whats going on with my external Hard drive..this is the 2nd external hard drive I've bought
Hi there
Your drive may have data corruption or bad sectors I'd suggest to you to use TESTDISK to run a test on the drive.-
I have 2 GB hard drive, it was ok with my laptop vista and desktop pc windows xp but from last month it is not working. I've stored my data on it and now when i attach to computers, its light shows on but device is not shown on screen. Is there any solution to retreive it?
Did you try the program mentioned above TestDisk? Moving drives between different OSs can cause problems.
I have the same problem with a WD My Book Home edition.
I have tried following the instructions for Test Disk but can't get past the Please Wait screen in Test Disk after I hit the enter key (on No Log).
I am running Windows 7 - 64 bit.I have an external WD 1 TB hard drive connected with USB that is partitioned into drive G and drive H.
H is where my important data is and it is suddently "not accessible" and it wants me to format it to use it. I click NO to that then the box pops up DATA ERROR (CYCLIC REDUNDANCY CHECK).
G still works fine so I know it is not the actual hard drive or cable causing the problem.
Both were formatted NTFS and given a name of WD 1 TB first (G) and WD 1 TB second (H).
G still has it's given name and is still NTFS. H is now just LOCAL disk that is listed as RAW.
I have tried restarting the computer but that does not change anything.
I have tried a cold boot and that brought the drive back so I started a backup and went to bed. Got up in the morning and the backup had stalled out, early on, as drive H went back to being a LOCAL drive that is RAW.
I downloaded both versions of Test Disk and tried to run them as administrator.
I tried the 32 bit first as I assumed I had WoW64 from what I had read.
When that didn't work, (stalled out with please wait after choosing No Log and hitting the enter key) I downloaded and ran the 64 bit version but the same thing happens... I choose No Log, hit the enter key, then am greeted with Please Wait... but nothing ever populates after that and I've waited up to a half an hour.
What do I do next?
thank you in advance for your assistance,Cindy
It sound like some of the partition data got corrupt. You can try free Easuse Partition Manager http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm . I have read that running the procedure to convert from FAT32 to NTFS will sometimes fix the problem of Raw partition even though it was formatted NTFS to start with http://windows7forums.com/windows-7-hardware/52429-hard-drive-unrecognizable-file-system.html . In this link http://www.ehow.com/info_8555094_command-fat32-partition-ntfs-partition.html that part is toward the end in Syntax. One other option to try recovering data is create a Linux Live CD http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html It doesn't actually install on your system but sometimes allows access to data.
As I look around the net it seems that the failing WD drives is a constant. Will be leading my customers away from these drives. Sorry folks loyalty only goes so far.

Re: Is AT V accelerate faster than MT V?
I like this argument. I 100 percent agree that an auto is gonna be faster. However, I still prefer the manual. I logged my zero to 60 the other day and my shift times were 2 tenths of a second from first to second. I feel like i should make a video of this........anyone else with manuals that has gotten better than a 2 tenths shift?
i also logged back to back 3.8 second 0-60s with just an intake and a tune on 305 wide re11s. What are the auto's running for zero to 60? I would think with sticky tires a stock one should do 3.6.... Only thing holding the stock cars back is the PS2s.
flame on!!!! hahah...manual all day long! I like the concentration and practice involved in being fast in a manual.

Re: Is AT V accelerate faster than MT V?
Just got back from a joy ride with this tread in mind...I have an A6 coupe heavily modded - temp about 50 degrees. Sport mode with all nannies off.....75mph coast then stomp. Holy shit, this car is so fast to find the exact gear and then bang all subsequent gears that I really have to hang on and stay focused. Step out then hook. IMO when this tranny is tuned correctly, it is pretty amazing and faster than any leg/arm combo. I think the horse is dead.

Re: Is AT V accelerate faster than MT V?
agreed...still doesnt make me want an auto though....only reason i would is if i was planning to build a dedicated drag car. But, i do not have the monetary backing to turn a 60k dollar car into a weekend warrior. lol
No way can i shift faster than a well tuned auto...but i bet i can get damn close and for me...that is where all the fun is.
Re: Is AT V accelerate faster than MT V?
one thing I miss about manual transmissions (now that I drive an AT vehicle) is being able to cut the engine as i'm pulling into the driveway/parking spot to cut down on the noise as i pull in
(i'm often out late and like to be curious to my tennant and roomate)
Re: Is AT V accelerate faster than MT V?
comprehend the fact that no matter how bad you want the standard to be king of the hill (think 1950's-90's)
the auto is now holding that spot and will for the rest of 4 wheel history. i love a stick for the same reasons
everyone else does, but to win bragging right/races you'll need an auto. (not to be associated with the auto trannys of the 50's-90's)
facts list:
1. auto has 3 modes of driving options. (auto/normal, sport, & "MANUAL MODE"- (paddle and slap shift) minus stiff calve muscle)
2. auto is faster to react and doesnt miss shifts. it's computer controlled, and therefore it's ALWAYS going to be faster than humans can react.
3. new age tech has arrived,... and the auto is the leader in this realm.
note: the Nürburgring record breaking run was done in an auto because the auto is more consistent. period.
and lastly for all you stick huggers, the only thing you truly miss by not having an auto is being in the winners circle. lol
- 04-29-13 05:51 PM #53Originally Posted by Stillborn
Is the A6 strong enough to run consistently all day on a Road Course?
Again some thought. But is that the OP'd question? Who knows...
I love how stillborn is so obsessed with his little plastic trophies. If I wanted to be faster, I'd mod more. I just want to drive. You know, not just brain dead right foot, right hand only jive...
Re: Is AT V accelerate faster than MT V?
as far as the left foot, now it's used to steady/plant you in the seat, instead of throwing your weight differential off in the seat.
as for shifting, i can shift faster and shorter throws (slap shift) than you can ever dream of. so where is this "experience" i'm missing out on?
I guess ignorance is bliss...

Re: Is AT V accelerate faster than MT V?
I think this is interesting, since most people say the manual has lower gears it should be quicker, but if you look at the ratios with the transmission ratios thrown in the automatic has the clear advantage:
Manual Transmission .......... Automatic
Trans ratio X Rear ratio = overall... Trans ratio X Rear ratio = overall
1st: 2.66 X 3.73 = 9.9218.......... 1st: 4.03 X 3.23 = 13.0169
2nd: 1.78 X 3.73 = 6.6394.......... 2nd: 2.36 X 3.23 = 7.6228
3rd: 1.30 X 3.73 = 4.849.......... 3rd: 1.53 X 3.23 = 4.9419
4th: 1.00 X 3.73 = 3.73.......... 4th: 1.15 X 3.23 = 3.7145
The manual transmission car would need a 4.89 rear gear to be equal off the line (assuming good traction).
I have a 2012 CTS V coupe with 6-speed manual and I love it. Does anyone know if there are gears available for the CTS V rear end?

Skip to comments.Florida might reject stimulus cash for jobless
Posted on 03/26/2009 1:34:10 PM PDT by sheikdetailfeather
Florida might reject stimulus cash for jobless Federal funds to the tune of $1 billion could extend unemployment benefits to Florida's jobless -- but Republicans say there are too many strings attached. By JEFF HARRINGTON St. Petersburg Times Florida is on the verge of forfeiting more than $1 billion in federal stimulus funds that could help 250,000 Floridians whose unemployment benefits are running out.
The problem: The federal offer for aid comes at a price that many in the state Legislature are unwilling to pay. To receive the money, the state would have to pass a new law widening the pool of people receiving extended unemployment benefits.
So far, no legislation has been introduced. The federal government would pick up most of the estimated $776 million cost of providing the extended benefits through December 2009.
But since state agencies and local governments account for about 6 percent of benefit costs, they would be on the hook to pay about $71 million between now and June 30, 2010. Moreover, the federal stimulus only runs through the end of the year. After that, the burden would shift to Florida to pay for the program. That tab could be about $200 million for the second half of the 2009-2010 fiscal year, according to an estimate from the Florida Agency for Workforce Innovation, which oversees unemployment benefits.

Gov. Crist - DON'T DO IT !
Gov Christ is a woosie boy kiss ass mambie pambie parasite that will do whatever the powers want.
Crist is a damned lying RINO.
Tax Relief" B.S.
Insurance relief? B.S.
What else ya got beside that sham marriage ya fag?
NO confidence in Crist the RINO.
I would love it.
Florida ping!
With Crist I'll believe it when I see it!
Anyone else get their Republican strategy survey? They had the nerve to ask me for money. I wrote on my form that when the Republic leadership grows a pair, stop apologizing for wanting Obama's Marxist plans to fail and starts upholding the Constitution of the USA I would be happy to send them money. Oh yeah, and the party shouldn't support Crist for the Florida Senate.
Why don't we take the money and then in 2010 change the law back and reduce the pool back to original size?
With Crist Ill believe it when I see it!
Me too. That greedy liberal SOB!

Reviews for Mirbeau Inn & Spa
Peferct get off the grid, read a book and be pampered spa. Accommodations are beautiful, food was fantastic. My only complaint was the spa treatments. The massage was great but the facial was so so at best. I expected better for costing double what I pay locally and I get a better facial that includes hand massage and warm mitts at my local spa. I think it's because the esthetician that I got was very young and didn't seem to have much experience. But overall I recommend I would go again if I got a raving referral for a very good esthetician.

I stayed here for a girls weekend with a few members from my family. The hotel is gorgeous and well kept. We had 3 rooms total and 1 of the rooms was not ready until after 3, which would have been more inconvenient had we not had the other 2 rooms. I did not book any spa services, but did use the hot tub and foot spa. The hot tub was great, but really small. The food was out of this world delicious. Everyone loved their dinners and breakfast, and I was pleasantly surprised to find a vegan option at dinner. I would definitely come back just for dinner.

Ok / not thrilled with management or housekeeping! Positives: lovely building and grounds, food and wait staff is amazing, spa, spa setting, services, amenities and staff - love!!!, beds comfy, pillows and linens very nice, rooms lovely. Negatives: housekeeping does a lousy job, rooms are sprayed with a very fake chemical supposed fresh smell that is disgusting and if you have perfume or flower allergies you will suffer (I don't but the smell is fake and irritating and fortunately it was nice enough out yo open windows and air out). Checkout was a nightmare- billed incorrectly for spa service- took 10-15 minutes to correct and even then ended up calling billing the following day because it still wasn't correct - also, the bill is very difficult to understand - and that was confirmed by corporate billing. I contacted Guest Relations Manager at this location and let her know I had been there before, and gave her my "constructive criticism ", offered photos to support and told her it was meant to help make Mirbeau better- No response- re-submitted same a day or two later, no response (even sent pictures that time) - so I then called CEO who then contacted Guest Relations (should have title of "Guest Non- relations"- she was then "forced" to respond and I got a cookie cutter letter - could have been sent to anybody- not personalized, did not acknowledge any of my comments- very, very lame especially for a high end resort . And if I look at Trip Advisor I saw that she responded personally to others (fyi I am not talking about Natalie Ward- besides she responds extremely well by actually referring yo what you said, she left in early April or late March) -Patty McPherson is Guest Relations /Resort Manager- in title only, not in actions. Would have to really think before I rebooked here-

The place is an outstanding place to visit. Beautiful location with an excellent service and hospitality level. The following staff members have to be highlighted. Chef Coe, Scott and Jeremy created three outstanding quality dishes for us in the kitchen. Also Ashley did a great job at the bar. We will be back and can only highly recommend this value and quality destination. Don't miss to have a look at the beautiful Spa as well
Claus B - Miami, Florida
Was given a gift certificate for either location and since we had been to NY location we thought we would try the newer Plymouth location. The rooms are smaller but well appointed and plush. We were given a room that overlooked the parking lot, possibly because we visited on The Getaway Package. On a Monday when they are not busy I was hoping for a better room. I quests I should have complained at check in. We loved the big bath tub for two. Spa services were wonderful with every attention given to detail in the " locker room". The food and service were very good in The Bistro and Wine Bar, large portions and good selection. The problem was at checkout where the discount for Monday services was not given and I was over charged, until I asked for the detail on the bill . Then the proper discounts were given. Be careful before you approve the charges.

Open Mobile Video Coalition
The Open Mobile Video Coalition (OMVC) is a consortium founded to advance free broadcast mobile television in the United States. It was created by TV stations to promote the ATSC-M/H television standard to consumers, electronics manufacturers, the wireless industry, and the Federal Communications Commission.
The OMVC set-up the first real-life beta tests for ATSC-M/H on WATL and WPXA in Atlanta, and on KOMO and KONG in Seattle. Most recently, it has also advocated to the FCC, trying to keep it from taking even more of the UHF upper-band TV channels for wireless broadband. The OMVC commissioned a study to emphasize the fact that broadcasting is a far more efficient use of bandwidth than unicasting the same live video stream hundreds of times to every mobile phone that wants to watch local television.
As of January 1, 2013 the OMVC became integrated in the National Association of Broadcasters.[1]

I thought for sure you'd go for the musical definition. The haircut will make you feel better. Maybe some ice cold BenGay for the knee?
If you sat down and imagined what a great Game One would look like, it would be something like what happened in Pittsburgh last night. 4 goals in 22 minutes, sending the starting goaltender to the bench.
My knee hurts so much today that I can't think straight. I may have to re-think "getting off" pain pills. But the alternative is so bad (constipation) that I'm reluctant to go the other way.
At least I got the business plan straightened out, and the haircut has been postponed until noon. Just because I've been married to this man for 54 years, what makes him think that I can read his scribbles?

I sent my new Golduck to Professor Juniper to check out. I then had her send me four more Pokémon to come with Pelipper and Grimer. This time Crobat, Gligar, Vigoroth, and my recently caught Vulpix get a turn. I'll need a Razor Fang if I want Gligar to evolve though, since I haven't come across one yet. I figure the best place to look is the area where I caught Gligar. So I decided to head towards Route 11, training my team along the way.
Dream World: Lilligant. Found: nothing new; female Wooper with the ability Unaware.
Dream World 2: Muk. Found: Tympole that can use Earth Power.
October 23, 2013
Dream World: Darmanitan. Found: nothing new; female Cubone with the ability Battle Armor.
Dream World 2: Jolteon. Found: Maractus that can use the move Spikes.
I did some training late that evening, and since I did find a Razor Fang the other day, my Gligar evolved into Gliscor!
"Gliscor, the Fang Scorp Pokémon, and the evolved form of Gligar. Gliscor dance silently through the sky. If they succeed in catching even a faint breeze properly, they can circle the globe without flapping once. When they approach prey, they can land critical hits in an instant."
290. Gliscor
October 24, 2013
I did some more training with the team, and I had a Fire Stone in my bag, so I gave it to Vulpix so it could evolve into Ninetales!
"Ninetales, the Fox Pokémon, and the evolved form of Vulpix. Ninetales can live for a thousand years. Their nine tails are said to be imbued with a mystic, supernatural power."
291. Ninetales
Dream World: Maractus. Found: nothing new; Carnivine that can use Rage Powder.
Dream World 2: Flareon. Found: Heatmor that can use Heat Wave.
October 25, 2013
Dream World: Garbodor. Found: nothing new; Magby that knows the move Thunderpunch.
Dream World 2: Leafeon. Found: nothing new.
October 26, 2013
While exploring the Giant Chasm again, I found Ghetsis trying to capture Kyurem again. This time, he was using the DNA splicers to fuse it with Zekrom! When Black Kyurem attacked, my Pokémon were able to rise to the challenge and defeat it, thanks in large part to Vigoroth's Yawn and Gliscor's immunity to electric attacks. After the battle, my Vigoroth evolved into Slaking! It was then thanks to Slaking's power, boosted by having its ability changed from Truant to Mummy during the battle, which allowed us to have a much easier time than the last time defeating Ghetsis again.
"Slaking, the Lazy Pokémon, and the evolved form of Vigoroth. Slaking are the world's laziest Pokémon and they live lying on their sides. They only roll over and move when there is no more grass to eat. When they are lounging during battle, they are actually saving energy for striking back."
292. Slaking
Back at the Pokémon Center, I received a medal since Ninetales was the last fire-type Pokémon for me to find in Unova.
Medal Rally: Rookie Rank 91/126
New Medals:
Fire-type Catcher
Then I rotated my team, retiring Crobat, Gliscor, Ninetales, and Slaking, and having Muk, Shuckle, Sneasel, and Corphish sent to me. Wait… since it's still pretty early on a Saturday, maybe I'll hold off on Sneasel for now. I switched it out for Ditto. I've got a full day with no other priorities, so time to get some solid Pokémon training in so I can wrap things up in Unova!
I took my Pokémon back to the Giant Chasm for some training, and my Corphish evolved into Crawdaunt!
"Crawdaunt, the Rogue Pokémon, and the evolved form of Corphish. Crawdaunt love to battle. They pinch all Pokémon that enter their territories with their pincers and throw them out from their ponds."
293. Crawdaunt
Next I went to Route 23, and spent the entire afternoon there training. Once I returned to Lacunosa Town, I was awarded another medal.
Medal Rally: Rookie Rank 92/126
New Medals:
Water-type Catcher
So I retired those four Pokémon, and had Steelix, Sneasel, and Tropius sent to me. Since I still had Grimer and Pelipper with me, I asked Professor Juniper to send me my new Golduck.
"Your Golduck is quite a serious Pokémon," Professor Juniper explained. "We've found it to be very finicky, too. Other than that, it's fairly average."
When I received Golduck, I scanned it with my Pokédex to see what moves it knows. Screech, Zen Headbutt, Aqua Tail, and Soak. I'd rather focus on teaching it some special attacks rather than having it know these physical ones, so we'll work on that.
Dream World: Amoongus. Found: nothing new; Ralts that knows Helping Hand.
Dream World 2: Roserade. Found: female Shelmet with the ability Overcoat.
I gave Golduck some vitamins to begin its training. It got HP Up, Calcium, and Zinc. Then I took Pelipper and Golduck to Alex's Colosseum on Green Grimer Avenue for some significant training. When we were done there, I treated them to some power meals at Bistro Leah. Next, it was off to Nimbasa City's Sports Domes to give the whole team some training. Then as we traveled to Driftveil City, I worked on teaching Golduck the move Scald. Once in Driftveil, there was a move tutor there who helped teach my Pelipper the move Seed Bomb! I figured that would be an interesting move for it to learn.
Finally, I returned to Route 23, where my Sneasel evolved into Weavile!
294. Weavile
Alola Pokédex: Obtained 84 Seen 96
Melemele Pokédex: Obtained 58 Seen 68
Akala Pokédex: Obtained 50 Seen 57
Pokédex Go: Obtained 183 Seen 191

Supplement Football Fitness with Other Fitness
So, for those of you who would like to know more about how to stay in shape and improve your athletic ability this season, this is the post that you want to be reading. And if you have got this far it means that you are doing just that, so continue…
Long gone are the days where sports coaches and players thought it sufficient to just play football and train football in order to improve and maintain fitness for the beautiful game. Nowadays everyone relaises that you have to have a diverse fitness regime in order to be at your best at all times on the pitch.
Types of Training
In a football game most players will need the ability to sprint over short distances followed by recovery periods. This is very similar to interval training, so this is one aspect of fitness which needs to be worked on during training sessions. Another aspect is that of overall stamina. In order to sustain running for 90 minutes it requires quite a lot of stamina, and most importantly the ability to recover very quickly between sprints.
Anyway, I wanted to recommend a training camp that I recently went on over in Thailand. The guys down at Titan Fitness are a great crowd and will easily help you achieve your fitness goals, whatever they may be. They're all a bunch of proper personal trainers who did their training courses with Discovery Learning in London. For me, they designed me a specific training program for football so that I could improve my athletic ability on the pitch. The camp is down in Phuket and is very easy to get to. They also have a gym there, so you can easily do a normal workout in addition to the classes that they run.
If you think about a game of football you will often see players sprinting to attack or get back and defend then have some time to recover and walk around a little bit.

The Blues head into the game looking to return to winning ways at Stamford Bridge after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Stoke City in the Premier League at the weekend.
Chelsea are looking to book a fourth quarter-final spot in six seasons, and a seventh in the last 10 campaigns in the Champions League.
And former Liverpool striker Owen is tipping the Blues to progress through to the last eight, despite them losing the first leg in Paris last month.
Writing in his column for Bet Victor, Owen said: "I was in Paris with BT Sport for the first leg and wasn't overly impressed by the hosts.
"With that in mind, I must admit I was surprised to see the discrepancy in prices between the clubs to qualify for the last eight given Chelsea's away goal in Paris.
"It is sure to be a cracking atmosphere at the Bridge and 7/4 for the Blues to make the Quarter Finals is too big."
Chelsea are unbeaten in seven home games against French opposition and have kept five clean sheets.
The Blues topped their group for the 10th time in their last 13 attempts, finishing as runners-up twice in that period. They won all three home matches.

Poorer quality than previous polo shirts but still happy enough

Excellent returns policy,and always good updating of new products.
The returns service worked very well.

Really nice top, nice thick material, brilliant price.
hour-glass rather than slim-fit quality could've been better
Website is excellent although I have noticed the amount of sports equipment is reducing gradually. But in terms of speed of service etc... as always its been impeccable.
The fitting was tight.

Torn ApartMature
Time passed with the consistency of tar, Frederick burning minutes by organizing and reorganizing his medical satchel. Kelstrin sat huddled in the opposite corner, hugging his knees as a somber expression remained on his face.
"{So why then have you come for me?}" Frederick asked, breaking the silence.
Kelstrin looked up, his brows raised.
"{You cannot feel it?}"
"{There's no use denying…}" Frederick conceded, looking away, "{Do you know what's causing this?}"
"{Ever since your forces moved in, bad things have been happening. Fertile lands have grown barren, villages have been wiped out-}"
"{Elban villages?}"
"{Because of the Lore Stones.}"
"{Yes, but also the rain.}"
"{It is poison.}"
"{But why?}"
"{Que'Vallah is not meant to be torn apart. Everything must become whole again.}"
"{Going back to the source?}"
"{So unless these stones are returned, this hell will persist?}"
"{Yes.}" Frederick couldn't understand if it was mirth or sorrow he heard in Kelstrin's voice when he confirmed his fears this time, "{It's not just stones though. Anything of Que'Vallah…including us.}"
Frederick stared, unable to open his mouth.
"{We must return to the source, asagi. All of us must.}"
Frederick felt sick to his stomach and instead went silent, Kelstrin's brows furrowing before he conceded and placed his chin on his knees.
"{But if the Shadowbroods are searching for the stones…}" Frederick's eyes lit up, words lost to him.
The boat suddenly pitched forward, jars flying off the shelves. One hit Frederick square in the gut, causing him to gasp and roll onto his side. He realized now that the entire floor was tilted at a radical angle. More containers of food items rained from the shelves, smashing to pieces as the boat creaked.
"{Kelstrin, get up!}" Frederick shouted, wide awake now.
Kelstrin rose, falling back against the flour in his attempt as items rolled towards him.
"{Oh no…Not here…?}"
A low, reverberating moan answered their question, a question they didn't want answered. Both stared at each other, refusing to believe the truth.
"{We hafta get out of here. Now.}"
Frederick tried to reach the door, but the ship lurched backwards, as if trying to launch from the water before it came crashing back down. Screams fluttered through the body of the ship, splintered wood and squeaking metal drowning them out as more of these hollow moans occurred.
Water spurt from a corner of the larder, spraying out and trickling against the door. Kelstrin went into high alert, trying not to scream as he tried to maintain consciousness.
"{Can you help me?!}" Frederick shouted over the water, the level now past their ankles.
"{I would risk further injury if I tried!}" Kelstrin said, trying to control his panic.
Frederick swore and fished out one of the jar shards, scratching open the wound in his hand as blood mixed into the seawater. Ur'Kan words flew out of his mouth, the water churning and bubbling as it drew up and smashed into the door. Nothing. The level now reached their knees, the wave receding and once again smashing into the door. Kelstrin watched in abject horror, trying to figure out how he could help him.
"{Plug the hole, I'll blast the door!}"
"{Are you insane?! The debris will kill us!}"
"{What choices do we have!?}" Kelstrin squawked, the water level now passing their waists at an alarming rate.
The boat groaned and lurched, forcing both of them into the door. Kelstrin yelped before his head was submerged in the water, Frederick placing his hand on the door and closing his eyes. Blue light spread from his palm, pulling his hand back to watch the lines flare. He rapidly motioned Kelstrin to swim back, cracks forming in the iron.
With the explosion of the door, Kelstrin and Frederick were hurled out of the larder, spilling out across the floor while gasping for air. Frederick shook the water out of his eyes and helped Kelstrin to his feet, the gas lamps dimming before going out. All they could hear in the darkness was the roar of water, and the screams.
Frederick's legs carved through the murky water as he made his way into the lower deck.
"Is anyone here!?" he shouted over the noise, tripping over something soft and falling face first into the water.
The salt burned his eyes, and spluttering, he struggled to his feet. Furiously wiping his face, he saw the object he had tripped over was a dead body. The boat bucked and rolled, sending Frederick into the wall as Kelstrin was not far behind.
"Asagi!" Kelstrin hollered, knocking into Frederick.
Frederick felt along the walls, trying to navigate as the water rose past his knees. Bodies continued to crop up in corners, bumping into his legs. A cold shiver ran down the back of his legs, his hands curling into fists against the walls as he focused on finding a source of light and a way out.
"Asagi! {This way!}" Kelstrin shouted, the sound of shuffling water catching Frederick's attention.
Frederick followed the churning water towards the cacophony of screams, running up the stairs alongside Kelstrin as he witnessed the horror on deck.
Shadowbroods were tearing down the ship, people running and trying to find cover as the ship bucked in the water. Survivors dove overboard, some making it while others were snatched and flung against the steamstack. Others were drawn into their shadowy folds, the beasts evaporating soon after into the plum purple sky.
Frederick made his way starboard, narrowly dodging a Shadowbrood's hand as they grew in size. Kelstrin was not far behind, calling out to Frederick while firing blasts of green light from his now cut hand.
"{Look out!}" Kelstrin shouted, turning into his feline form and leaping over Frederick's head.
He rammed into the Shadowbrood's side, causing it to moan and topple overboard into the water with a violent splash. The water rose up and slammed into the deck, causing the boat to roll against the waves. Kelstrin stumbled, digging his claws into the wood to steady himself as he fought fatigue. Frederick slipped and slid across the deck, nearly going overboard as well. Kelstrin let go and threw his body against the railing, blocking Frederick.
A smile grew on Kelstrin's muzzle.
"Balku na." he responded softly, thrusting his hip out to help Frederick back onto his feet.
"{We need to get on a lifeboat!}
Kelstrin began to fade back into his original form, caught between feline and human as his knees sagged. Frederick caught him and forced him onto his feet, guiding his way through panicked survivors, splinters and tendrils of darkness.
The captain was ferrying people onto the boats, sending them off with less finesse and more urgency. His face went pale when Frederick grabbed his arm, copper glowing his eyes.
"You! But how-?!"
"Let us passage and we will protect what lives are left." Frederick commanded above the noise of chaos.
"I can't…I mustn't…" he feebly replied.
"Do you want these people to die?!"
The captain was at a loss for words, Frederick quickly tossing Kelstrin into a lifeboat as he spun around to form a shield over the boats.
Blood dripped from his palm, shining a brilliant cerulean as it plopped against the deck and sprouted into symbols. Shadowbroods were hurled back each time they tried to reach for villagers, denting metal and smashing windows. The captain cowered and leapt into the lifeboat behind Frederick, looking down at Kelstrin before he and four others grabbed fistfuls of his chiton and hurled him back onto the deck.
Frederick fell over from Kelstrin's weight, the shields dissipating as rage and horror took his senses.
"You backstabbing monster!" Frederick hollered, blasting back another Shadowbrood, "{May roots grow in your eyes and your fields remain barren!}"
The captain sank into the lifeboat as the rage filled words of Ur'Kan rang out in the night, rowing away from the doomed ferryboat as Frederick tried to survive.
From the belly of the ship came a horrible grinding noise. The white steam funneling from the stack turned to a charcoal black, the decks quivering as whining gears began to scream from below.
"{Kelstrin, up!}" Frederick shook Kelstrin's shoulder violently, his body now reverted back to flesh.
A Shadowbrood rounded the stern of the ship, rising its fists above its head to smash in the bridge. With a hollering fury, the boiler exploded from the core of the ship, launching into the night sky in a flurry of steam and showering iron as the boat snapped in half. Shadowbroods bellowed as they toppled into the ocean, others evaporating into the clouds.
Frederick shielded his body from the blast, flung up into the air along with the failing heart of the ship as wood and metal sprinkled the surface of the water. Kelstrin was launched into the ocean from the blazing fire, vanishing from sight as Frederick plummeted into the water. Parts continued to fall from the sky, Frederick bursting through the surface to gasp for air.
"{Kelstrin!! Kelstrin, where are you?!}" The sense of panic in his voice felt alien and familiar to him at the same time, narrowly dodging pipes and planks.
He spotted Kelstrin floating away against a scrap of steamstack, his body partially submerged as the glow of lifeboats were fading away over the horizon.
"Help us!" Frederick shouted, spluttering on seawater, "Please, help us!"
The boats did not turn around, nor even stop as they continued to drift, the lanterns becoming pinpoints of light.
"You demons!" Frederick hollered, his voice hoarse as he choked on seawater, "You pathetic dogs!"
He tread water as he tried to reach Kelstrin, his limbs exhausted as the last of the Shadowbroods dissolved into thin air. As he reached the Mystic, horrible thoughts rammed into him like a fist to his stomach. Everyone on that boat was exposed to the rain, including his family. What if they suffered the same fate? Were they safe in Ferezandra? The thought of his sister becoming one of those creatures made him sick enough to vomit, nearly drowning from the shock as he managed to grab hold of a section of deck.
Kelstrin continued to drift away, and now he seemed to be the only anchor in Frederick's consciousness. Five years, this terror remained dormant until now, and he swam with all his strength to try and reach him.
"Oh Lord, please, don't do this to me!" He panted, spitting out seawater before a pipe smashed into his shoulder.
He cried out, thrashing in the water as he frantically struggled to stay above the surface. Pain spiraled through his body, both hot and cold as his fingers tingled. He cleaved to the section of deck as he felt himself sag in the water, heaving himself on with his good arm. He pulled his legs in, fingernails digging into the wet wood as he lay on his stomach. He dragged his face to look over his damaged shoulder, colored spots flooding his eyes.
He helplessly watched Kelstrin float away on the metal scrap of ship, trying to move his arm in a feeble attempt to reach out to the Mystic. Just moving his fingertips caused tremors of pain to fire up his arm and attack his brain with sensory data. Frederick watched his world blot into darkness, the sound of roaring ocean and twisting metal deafening his ears before silence overcame him.

President Barack Obama said on Monday night that Russia was "on the wrong side of history" with its incursion into the Crimean peninsula and said he was considering economic and diplomatic options to punish it if it didn't reverse course quickly.
"Over time this will be a costly proposition for Russia and now's the time for them to consider whether they can serve their interests in a way that resorts to diplomacy as opposed to force," Mr Obama told journalists in the Oval Office shortly before a long-scheduled meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli Prime Minister.
"What cannot be done is for Russia with impunity to put its soldiers on the ground and to violate basic principles that are recognized around the world," the President added. "And I think the strong condemnation that it's received from countries around the world indicates the degree to which Russia's on the wrong side of history on this."
"What we are also indicating to the Russians is that if in fact they continue on the current trajectory that they're on, that we are examining a whole series of steps — economic, diplomatic — that will isolate Russia and will have a negative impact on Russia's economy and its status in the world."

However, President Yanukovych had previously said he would not ask for Russian military assistance.

We look to ITIL processes like Change, Release and Configuration Management to give us more control, insight and improved performance just find massive resistance to change.
Time and again our IT improvementS eludes us because of 'Resistance to change'.
However 'Resistance to change' puts the blame on the 'Resistor' and absolves our own ineffective and outdated way we implement change
To gain the benefits of next generation Service Management, we need next generation Organizational Change practices to get us there
Join Paul Vos as he challenges your thinking by presenting proven Organizational Change (OCM) best practices and learn how to prevent false starts and change fatigue.
Change does not have to be a frustrating tug of war, learn how to get change right in one go!
Learn how to improve your project success rate !
Improve your project success rate by leveraging Organizational Change best practices.
Time and again our projects fall short of intended goals due resistance to change.
Blaming the culture is valid but also a dangerous form of externalization.
When we blame culture we make the problem so big it becomes un-actionable for a mere mortal IT professional. We absolve ourselves from even trying to fix the problem and resign ourselves to our sub-optimal project practices, grit our teeth, hope for the best and dream about other companies where people apparently magically embrace Agile, LEAN DevOps without resisting.
Join this session as Paul challenges your thinking by presenting guidance taken from the ProSci organizational change management (OCM) best practice methodology.
Come away with actionable guidance on how to integrate OCM principles into your projects to maximize adoption.
From process refinement to execution – ITIL provides the framework, but people are your key to success.

It is well understood that a robust and inclusive Change Management process delivers real business benefit including reducing the risk to the business of Service disruption when introducing new and changed Services into the production environment, but what goes before and how does a Change Management function benefit and align with an established Service Introduction process?
This webinar will examine how a scaleable Change Management process and function can be utilised, and support, Service Introduction of IT Services in your organisation.
Change Management is one of the most critical ITSM processes for any organisation, but it's worryingly easy to get it wrong! All to many organisations try to deploy, or improve, this key area and struggle to gain adoption from those it's designed to support.
ITIL is a great starting point but where is a poor Change Manager to turn to when confronted with those questions that aren't covered in the books. "Do Incidents really require changes to resolve them?" "How do I make sure CAB does not turn into a technical torture chamber?" "What happens when Change Management goes home in the evening?" "How do I stop people abusing my emergency change process?" And of course "Just what is a change anyway?!"
Join Peter Hubbard, Principal ITSM Consultant Pink Elephant EMEA, as he shares practical solutions and tips gathered in his almost 20 years experience working within ITSM across all industry sectors.
Chanin Forsyth, Change Manager for American Greetings, will provide insight into a few basics she has learned during her time as both ITSM process manager and project manager.

What else do we need to consider? How does Change relate to other processes, such as Configuration Management.
Durch neue Technologien ändert sich die Welt um uns herum immer schneller, was auch größere Auswirkungen als jemals zuvor mit sich bringt. Zum Beispiel stellt das Konsumieren von Unternehmens-IT die gängige Arbeitspraxis vor neuen Herausforderungen. Auch die enormer Ausbreitung von Geräten und Endpunkten führt dazu, dass sich Unternehmen mit Internet of Things Strategien beschäftigen müssen. Zudem werden durch Virtualisierung und Cloud Technologien neue, revolutionäre Wege eingeleitet, wie wir heutzutage Services konsumieren. Aber, das Handhaben von komplexen Infrastrukturen ist schwierig, ein erfolgreiches Managen von Änderungen (Changes) über diese vielschichtige Infrastruktur hinweg kann ein "Alles oder Nichts" für ein Unternehmen bedeuten.
Hier nun die richtige Balance zwischen Agilität und Kontrolle zu finden, ist extrem kritisch für eine IT Organisation, die sowohl das Ziel hat, Risiko zu minimieren aber dennoch Business zu ermöglichen.
Dieses Webinar stellt die entscheidenden Grundlagen für einen neuen, modernen Ansatz im Change Management dar (der ebenfalls die Bereiche Configuration und Release Management tangiert), um es IT Abteilungen zu ermöglichen, Changes effektiver durchzuführen:
- Sinnvolle Automation: Eliminieren des Risikos und dies lieber früher als später durchführen
- Von Daten zu Einblicken gelangen: bessere Entscheidungsfindung mit kontextabhängigen Daten
- Gelegenheitsnutzer besser unterstützen: Einfache und intuitive Benutzererfahrung unterstützen

Bring sanity to your IT Change process: Influence the Change Management Culture
Change Management challenges with people & process – The first in a 3 part series on IT Change Management
Following the path of Crawl, Walk, and Run; learn to crawl before you fall. Many IT shops have change management where everyone submits changes for work they want done, process and enforcement is simplistic, and reporting is minimal. Join Acorio for this lively discussion as we cover the following topics:
Culture of Change
Change Management Steps of Maturity
Resistance to Process Enforcement
You'll come away with a better understanding of the challenges and practical ways to address them.
Cultural Change is one of the hardest things to crack within any organisation, let alone within IT. IT is fast paced - moving responsively to the business, technological and even public requirements. However, a required cultural shift from within is rarely successful. On average a mere 30% of Cultural Change Initiatives are successful, and a lot can be lost when it fails!
Join Helen Windle, ITSM Consultant, as she guides you through the key points to get it right first time.
Are you tired of hearing about how to implement Change Management and yet when you try it something is still missing? In this session, instead of talking about the perfect implementation of Change Management we take it back to the basics and figure out what is really needed to make Change Management successful. Using a whole-earth approach we will cover the basics, why they are important and what you have to do to make Change Management work. This is a session not to be missed by all Change Managers.Read more >
In this edition of BLB&G's Speaker Series, attorneys Ben Galdston and Lucas Gilmore welcome Jim Coburn and Andrew Collins, leaders from Ceres and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board ("SASB") respectively, to discuss the rising demand by institutional investors, policymakers and public interest groups of improved corporate disclosure regarding climate and sustainability issues.
Climate change and its regulation pose significant and increased risks to public companies' operations and financial results. Since 1980, weather and climate disasters have caused losses of over $1 trillion in the U.S. alone. Experts predict these climate change-related costs will only continue to intensify. Moreover, new climate-related federal and state regulations have dramatically impacted the electric power, coal, oil and gas, transportation and insurance industries.
Despite these known trends, it is estimated that more than 75% of public companies fail to make adequate disclosures regarding climate and sustainability risks. While the SEC issued guidance in 2010 regarding how public companies should address and report material risks posed by climate change, the SEC has yet to pursue any formal enforcement action. As a result, investors have suffered enormous losses when the undisclosed sustainability and climate risks materialize.
With DevOps continuing to be adopted by startups & enterprises alike, there needs to be a way to guarantee that the speed and flexibility DevOps provides is supported, and not hindered, by change management standards to ensure the success of modern enterprise.
Join Daniel Breston, Chief of DevOps Transformation for Ranger4, and Adam OBrien, Product Marketing Manager for SunView Software, as they review 5 key ideas and strategies on how to integrate your change management platform with your DevOps initiatives.

Geno Smith is expected to give Mark Sanchez a run for his money in the upcoming starting quarterback competition.
But even if he doesn't win, the ex-Mountaineer could still find himself on the field.
According to Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com, the Jets are "toying with the idea" of using Smith as a "change-of-pace quarterback" if he doesn't earn the starting job.
In this scenario, Smith would have a package of plays -- mostly of the read-option variety -- that could "exploit his speed." However, Smith, mainly a pocket quarterback at West Virginia, rarely found himself outside of shotgun, let alone in a Wildcat-type formation. Cimini says Smith "gives the impression he wouldn't be thrilled in that role."
Nor should he be.
This idea reeks of last season's failed Tim Tebow experiment, and seems to have Rex Ryan's fingerprints all over it. Smith simply may not be cut out for the read-option, and fitting a square peg into a round hole is no way to develop a young signal-caller.
