Excited about your first guitar lesson? Not sure what to expect? Read on as Goodyear, AZ teacher David A. offers his advice on how to prepare, the basics of guitar you can expect to learn, and more! By the time I turned nine years old, I had spent six months begging my mom and dad to get me an electric guitar. When I finally had one, I was extremely eager to play it.

"48hr stay with my 18 month old"
About: John Radcliffe Hospital John Radcliffe Hospital Oxford OX3 9DU
Posted by JamieLee
I arrived at the hospital at around 11pm after being transferred from Wexham Park. My son was very ill, and from arrival to departure I cannot thank Toms Ward enough, especially the Senior Nurse. Everyone was so friendly and the care for my son was brilliant. I also can't explain how great the indoor and outdoor playrooms are, I was so worried about keeping him occupied but honestly it went above snd beyond my expectations. Thank you so much

linux driver review only
I thought i was buying a card that would work with b43 and bcm43xx linux drivers. however, I got the 4.1 version which is RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI. The current ralink rt61 userland driver works but you can't put this card into promiscuous mode. I couldn't get the current rt2x00 driver to compile on a recent kernel. the ralink driver should be found in most linux repos. for linux users, there are other chipsets with better drivers than this card.

Hello you all how are you?
I hope that super fine and shiny and fantastic. I'm havien some gloomy days and today was specially sad. When I'm feeling like this something strange always happen. Once I had an accident today I had another one, it was almost nothing but it made the rest of my day a big amount of infinite sadness. I swear I braked my bike but I ended up crashing a car at the end... nothing happened. This is hard to explain in english so I will write it in spanish... choqué y mi manubrio quedó un poco torcido... ahora es rarísimo andar con el manubrio medio ladeado y me raspé un poco la pierna. Fue casi llegando a la universidad. Llegué mega deprimida por haber cometido un error tan idiota y me quedé triste. Sentí que fue una reacción rara de mi parte pero supongo que me sentí un poco tonta. Apart from that, the rest of the day I suffered from a terrible stomach ache which tends to happen whenever I feel sad. The other strange reaction I tend to have is to be cold... I feel like a freak.
So, this week we are having a workshop. Obviously I didn't want to participate because I tend to be shy whenever it comes to work with work with strangers. It was an obligation for me because... "es obligatorio para el taller en el que estoy (de arquitectura)". We had a strange lunch, like a roman feast, I swear, and my stomach felt worst with that e_e... and we are leaded by a foreign teacher which came to be nice to work with. The good and happy part of the day is that he sent us an email thanking us for participating today in the activity we had. I think that little email made my day ;_; now I can't leave the group so I will try to give my best. Let's hope I don't crush again.
Oh and by the way, I was doodling yesterday...
So yeah, I draw semi naked girls instead of reading my Foucault's text... WHO WOULDN'T 8D
And the other good thing in my life is called "Arular"... slowpoke should be my second name. Now I'm hearing it all day long, it makes me soooo happy
Thanks for reading if you read this. Please let me know <3

Watch how to make this recipe.
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the onions to the pan and lay them flat on their sides. Cook on each side for 3 to 4 minutes, or until browned, being careful as you flip them. Add chicken stock, balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the pan. Add dots of butter around the pan. Turn the onions in the liquid so they are nice and coated.
Place the skillet in the oven and roast for 25 minutes, stirring on occasion so the onions don't stick to the pan. Roast until the onions are nice and soft and the balsamic is caramelized.

The Museum would have superior rights to that pistol, over the entity that bought it. In other words, yes. The Museum SHOULD get the pistol back.
A potential problem might come in if there was a State Statute that mandated that any weapons bought must then be destroyed. Also, of course, the Museum should put the entity that bought it on notice that they want it back. Ie make a demand for it.
The gun buyback programs are sort of unusual examples. A much more common example is that of pawn shops.
Someone steals a gun, then pawns it. The original owner is entitled to their weapon back at NO COST TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER. Omaha is an exception to this rule, though. How they operate is contrary to Nebraska Law, lol. No kidding.

Excellent, Mr. Holmes
More than a hundred years after his first appearance, fans and writers are still compelled to study and perform the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and his resolute sidekick, Dr. Watson. Its this very hunger for mystery that brought about Sherlock Holmes and the Spinsters of Blackmead, an original new play from the Theater Company of Lafayette, writer C.P. Stancich and director Erich Toll.
Its a classic whodunit with language very much in 1897, but still filled with wit and humor for a modern audience, Toll says. And it's a whodunit, indeed, as the actors werent even given the final pages of the play until just days before opening night.
The audience will get a chance to play detective as well. During intermission, audience members will get to place their guesses about the murderer for a chance to win prizes, says artistic director Madge Montgomery. I think people will jump out of their seats when we get to the end, Toll adds.
If youre interested in solving the mystery, the play opens tonight at 7:30 p.m. and runs through November 20 at the Historic Mary Miller Theater, 300 East Simpson Street in Lafayette; tickets are $10 to $15. For more information, visit www.tclstage.org or call 720-209-2154.
Fridays, Saturdays, 7:30 p.m.; Sun., Nov. 7, 2 p.m.; Sun., Nov. 14, 2 p.m. Starts: Oct. 29. Continues through Nov. 20, 2010

HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
Windows 10 / HP Spectre x360
Ultimately, I think the Windows 10 environment is excellent for me as it caters for so many different uses. The inclusion of the Xbox app is also great for when you need some downtime too!
Windows 10 / Lenovo Yoga 910
For me, the Xbox Play Anywhere is a great new feature as it allows you to play your current Xbox games with higher resolutions and better graphics without forking out extra cash for another copy. Although available titles are still scarce, but I'm sure it will grow in time.


text: otters Overrun By Otters, Illinois Reinstates Trapping Season By Steve Inskeep • Nov 26, 2012 Transcript STEVE INSKEEP, HOST: Just over a couple of decades ago, there were fewer than 100 otters remaining in the state of Illinois. Today, there are at least 15,000. They're furry and cute and a nuisance to some, often called the raccoons of Illinois waterways. What's wrong with raccoons? Anyway. So for the first time in almost 90 years, Illinois has reinstated otter trapping season. We called Bob Bluett, a biologist with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

Mumbai Amateur Radio Society
MARS logo
|Registered society
|Fort, Mumbai, India
The Mumbai Amateur Radio Society or MARS is an amateur radio club based in Mumbai, India. The club was founded on August 7, 2000 by a group of 25 active hams. Since then it has grown to over two hundred members and is the largest such club in the metropolis.[1] MARS is a registered 80G tax-deductible non-profit organization.
The club undertakes several social activities such as providing communication support during the Ganpati Visarjan, setting up of a quick response teams for communications during emergencies, and monitoring flood situations during the monsoons. The organisation was mobilised during the 2006 Mumbai Train Bombings, 2005 Maharashtra floods, 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and the 2001 Gujarat earthquake to provide the necessary communication links after established modes of communication were severed.[1]
MARS conducts several activities such as communication support during the Ganpati Visarjan, providing emergency radio services to civic organisations during calamities and disasters, homebrewing, amateur radio awareness drives, and contests such as foxhunts, and JOTA.[1]
During the Visarjan, MARS sets up several stations at Girgaum Chowpatty, some on the procession trail, and other in the lifeguard towers, lost and found, medical, and on the speedboat providing a vital link between members of the public and various civic authorities. In 2007, MARS opened another unit at Juhu Beach. A total of 40 ham operators were involved during the event in 2007.[2]
The club also conducts annual classes for those interested in becoming an amateur radio operator. Classes are usually conducted during July to September so that amateur enthusiasts can help out during the Visarjan and JOTA.[1]
MARS works closely with the Wireless and Planning and Coordination Wing (WPC) of the Ministry of Communications, Government of India (which issues amateur radio licences in India) in coordinating licence exams in Mumbai and other activities such as moving base stations during amateur radio events, disasters and other exigencies.
Club repeaters[edit]
MARS has set up a repeater tower operating at 144.1 MHz, located near Nana Chowk in South Mumbai, to provide line-of-sight coverage to the Mumbai agglomeration.
The call sign of MARS, VU2ST, was adopted in honour of notable late ham operator Saad Ali.
Future plans[edit]
MARS plans to try to persuade the Maharashtra government to introduce ham radio as a subject in school syllabus in the city. This is on the lines of the Japanese government to provide support during earthquakes.[3]
Another field in which the organisation is working, along with other amateur radio groups in India, is to shorten the waiting period for receiving an amateur radio licence. In the 1990s, the waiting period was two years. It has now been reduced to eight months.

Bubblegum Crisis: Stage Three
Part Sixteen
"What the fuck?" Priss Asagiri blurted as they met in the converted warehouse later that day. Unlike in the office she wore baggy shorts and a t-shirt, looking somewhat relaxed on a day off from their body guarding duties.
"Don't swear," Reika Chang chided gently.
"Sorry," Priss said quickly. She looked at Nene, "You're serious? A Boomer bought Lisa Valente's identity?"
"It appears so," Nene Romanova said calmly, "she bought the papers to get into Japan not long after the Russian/Chinese war. Since Hong Kong got slagged in the war, there was no one to say the name wasn't hers."
"Think she's involved in the attacks on Sylia?" Linna Yamazaki asked. She was dressed in a business suit, having been shadowing Sylia today on her errands.
"I don't think so, actually," Sylia admitted, looking as sleek as usual in her off-white business wear. She leaned forward, "Think about it. If she was involved with whomever is attacking me, she would have had the access to build a identity from scratch. Why buy a dead woman's papers and go to all the trouble she did?"
"True enough," Reika said calmly. "I can't say I'm comfortable knowing a liar of that calibre is in out midst, though."
"Keep digging, if covertly," Sylia ordered both Nene and Reika, "we need to be sure what she's doing in Genom is legal. An if not, we need to take steps."
"I'll give Nene access through my system," Reika noted, "it should help her do the searching into Lisa's identity and activity in Genom."
Nene looked thoughtful then nodded, "Should work."
"Any updates on what happened to that snake, Mason?" Linna asked curiously.
"Police are still convinced it's a drug killing," Sylia sat back with a sigh. She rubbed between her eyes gently, "I have... put some pressure on certain officers in the Tokyo Police to investigate."
Put some pressure, Priss decided, probably meant bribes. Or blackmail?
"After a more complete investigation they agree the killing stinks," Sylia admitted. "However they are being told by their superiors to drop it."
"Who would be powerful enough to do that?" Linna wondered, "The Mayor? Someone in Genom? Or...?"
"Could even be someone in the Japanese government," Reika noted thoughtfully. "They rely on funding from Genom, anything that might be endangering that would have to be stopped."
"You're as cynical as I am," Priss noted admiringly.
Everyone ignored that as Sylia continued, "I think we can be certain that this is related to my case."
"Can we really?" Nene asked. Meeting the others eyes she said, "Yes, it was murder. Yes, it was not a drug deal, that's a smoke screen. But Mason was DEEPLY involved in black ops for Genom, any of which could have bounced back at him."
Sylia looked at Nene in concern, hearing the deep loathing in her voice. "What did you find, digging through his files?" she had to ask.
Nene gave her boss a weak smile. "What haven't I found?" she asked wryly. "Just digging through the files I've decoded I've found murder for hire, blackmail, fraud... he was involved in so much dirty deeds I'm surprised someone didn't whack him sooner."
Sylia reached over and patted Nene's hand, her touch lingering a moment.
Priss waited a moment for them to finish, then continued, "So, you think he got killed for something unrelated?"
"I wouldn't go that far," Nene conceded. "But until I go through his files, I can't be sure something he was up to didn't come back to haunt him." She shrugged, "And so far, I've found nothing indicating he plotted against Sylia."
"I guess that makes sense," Priss conceded as Sylia subtly let go of Nene's hand and tried to look business-like. It was cute, in a odd sort of way. She looked at their boss, "Anything new we gotta cover? I promised to take some friends of mine out later."
Sylia tried to give Priss a disapproving look, but it didn't have much heat behind it. "Not from me," she admitted, "Linna? Reika? Nene?"
"We're covered, I think," Reika said after exchanging a glance with Linna, "there's contracts to review in the music division, but that's my area."
"If my assignments are cutting into your work...," Sylia started.
Reika smiled as she quickly said, "I'll let you know if I can't handle it."
"Fair enough," Sylia conceded. She looked at Nene, "Any other updates?"
"Not really," Nene shrugged, "at this point I'm still sifting data. As soon as I get something, I'll let you know."
"All right everyone," Sylia nodded, "dismissed."
Leon McNichol, Tokyo PD, really hadn't expected to be put in this kind of situation. There were several figures with guns surrounding him, he was alone, and the chances of backup were slim to none. Clearly, looking into this alone had been kind of dumb.
He had been assigned to assist in the Brian Mason investigation, but as a junior officer all he was supposed to do was interviews and data entry. He had reviewed Mason's file, finding it damn slim for such a famous public figure, then went to Genom to interview his co-workers. At the same time his seniors in the force were chasing the drug angle, one that was much more likely to lead to results.
The problem was, when you investigating things, you could find stuff you didn't expect. Interviewing people at Genom he learned about Mason... and a series of attempts on Sylia Stingray's life. Attempts, as far as he knew, which had not been reported to the Tokyo PD.
It was something out of bad science fiction. MULTIPLE android assaults on Sylia, hacking attacks on Genom itself and bombing attempts. If he had seen it in a ction film Leon wouldn't have believed it. And worse, due to wrinkles in the law Genom's own internal police, the ADP, could carry out the entire investigation. Which struck Leon as a horrible idea.
Not that Leon had anything against Jeena Malso, the head of ADP. She was a former high ranking cop who hit the glass ceiling, he had heard. Getting tired of banging her head against walls she quit the regular cops and took a position with the ADP. She quickly rose through the ranks, and now rand the internal police force of Genom.
Sadly, most of the rest of the ADP were glorified security guards or washouts from the regular police. Yes, Jeena did her damn best to keep everyone in line and functioning like real cops, but there was only so much one person could do. These people were, at least in Leon's opinion, in no way capable of investigating a attempted murder.
And worse, Leon had no juristiction there either. All he could do was look into the Mason case, which his superiors thought was just a drug deal gone bad. But Leon reasoned that Mason's death and the attack on Stingray might just be connected, and if he investigated one he might find some answers to the other.
Which is how he found himself in an alley, with a group of gangbangers trying to kill him. "Folks, you really don't want to do this," Leon said calmly, keeping his open hands away from his body.
The Revengers were a tough gang, one that ran over on Tokyo's docks. They were also the guys to talk about in the city's drug trade, which was why he was there. The men circled him warily, even as their leader looked at him with annoyance. "What the hell, man?" the older gentleman noted, his short brown hair streaked with silver, "We paid you bastards this month."
Leon made a mental note that someone on the Tokyo PD was on the take. "I'm not here to shake you down," Leon said calmly, "I just want to ask a few questions."
"Can I kill him?" the redheaded woman asked.
"No, Eve," the old man said thoughtfully. He looked at the other gangsters, "Scatter. Eve can take care of me and we'll handle this."
Several guys protested that, but shut up once Eve glared at them and ordered, "Go." They slipped away into the shadows, leaving the three standing alone. "We're clear," she told them after a few moments of listening.
"You IDIOT," the older man suddenly slammed Leon against the wall, rattling his bones. "What the hell were you THINKING?"
"Hey, Buzz," Leon smiled weakly, "it's been awhile."
Basil 'Buzz' Nikvest was a cop, one that worked undercover in the city's gangs. He was a older man, a cop who learned survival on the street and was as touch as nails. If you looked up 'hard boiled cop' in the dictionary, you'd see a picture of his old face, before plastic surgery.
"I repeat," Buzz scowled at him, "what the hell are you thinking? You could have been killed!"
Not to mention blowing his cover," Eve noted calmly.
"That too," Buzz sighed. He looked at Leon, "Well?"
"I need information," Leon admitted, "and you might be the only guy I can get it from." He tossed a wary look at Eve, not quite sure what to make of her.
Eve quickly realized his discomfort as she answered, "I am a police model Boomer assistant, assigned to Buzz for this case." She paused, "You could consider myself his bodyguard."
"More like a nursemaid," Buzz muttered. "Well, get on with it," he asked Leon.
Leon puffed out a breath, more than a bit disturbed that Buzz had this boomer as his only backup. Still... "The Revengers, do you still have a lock on drug traffic in the city?" he asked.
"I wouldn't say a absolute lock," Buzz said cautiously, "but we're the biggest player." Something flickered in his eyes, pride at his success mixed with disgust at what he was doing. He was becoming the most powerful drug dealer in Tokyo, all in hopes of crippling the networks in an out of the city.
"Good, you know about Brian Mason's death?" Leon asked.
"About time someone came to see me about that," Buzz snorted.
Leon looked at him in surprise. "The lead detectives didn't contact you? Not even through the safe drop system?" he asked.
"Not a peep," Buzz answered, "in fact I was expecting to hear from someone, eventually." He frowned, "What's up?"
"Looks like my superiors have decided not to look to hard," Leon muttered. He looked at Buzz and Eve and said, "Mason was found with drugs, and gear was found at his home. Was he a user?"
"If so, it wasn't from anyone connected to me," Buzz said, blowing a massive hole in the theory Mason died in a drug deal gone bad. "And there is no way a major player like him would be buying and I would not know."
"Crap," Leon breathed out, knowing things had just gotten much more complicated.
"Indeed," Eve agreed.
To be continued...
Notes: Buzz and Eve are characters from Parasite Dolls, the BGC 2040 related anime spinoff. I mostly just used the characters names, rather than getting the details right...

I use the Environment Chart - Time Spent on Tickets to allow easy display of ongoing time spent on tickets. The chart is not longer being updated. It shows the same time spend as was shown at least a week ago.The only change I have made was to update SW to the latest version.
Are there any troubleshoot procedures I can take to correct this or provide additional information for you?

I've created a few custom reports for my helpdesk tickets which I've found works better than the built in ones. Let me know what you're trying to achieve and I'll create an SQL query for you.
e.g. this one lists hours spent (based on closed tickets) per customer for the current month
/* List tickets closed so far this month */
c_company as 'Company'
,round(sum(time_spent)/60.00/60.00,2) as 'Total time'
, summary
, closed_at as 'Closed'
from tickets
where STRFTIME('%m',closed_at) = (STRFTIME('%m','now'))
group by c_company

I am wanting to do a few things with the map and there may already be answers to this. My questions are these.
1. when I edit a device in the inventory it does not change the information on the map. ie- if a device has an IP as a name but i want to call it the back firewall i can change that but it never replicates to the map. The map will still show the IP as the object name. How can i fix this for an inventory device. I know i could delete it and add a non inventory device with the right name but that defeats the purpose.
2. I want to bring in all of my devices so it doesnt take up 8MP of screen space when I want to see the items as anymore than specs on the screen. I know I can manually move each device one by one but that takes ages when i have a few hundred devices on there. Also i have tried all three view types and there is just so much white space that it spreads it out too much
3. I want to be able to see the netflow on the main routes without clicking on a device to see what kind of traffic is being used. I have an snmp enabled catalyst 4510. It does show traffic by port if i view the device but I would like a hud of my traffic for a screen that is on the wall outside my office.
Thanks in advance for all help.

akp982 is an IT service provider.
- You will have to wait till the map rebuilds (at the end of the next full network scan)
- At the moment you cant move them in groups but add a feature request
- Dont get what you mean? Screenshot ;-)

Over the years I've talked to a number of people that want to broadcast a live video at a certain time of day. Usually this is in a corporate network where a CEO is doing a large broadcast to the entire company or something similar that needs to happen at a specific time without the intervention of a WMS admin. One of the features that comes with WMS starting in Windows 2003 SP1 is wallclock scheduling. This gives you the ability within a server side playlist to trigger an event to take place at a specific time.
I'll detail two examples of how you can schedule a broadcast. The first one below loops through the three videos indefinitely in the second priority class called "od" until the higher priority "live" priority class fires off at 5:41 PM. This may seem a little out of order, but the way this works is that because "live" is listed above "od" the first priority class would normally play first. However, with the wallclock tag set to begin at a specific time "live" will not start until that time. So the server plays the lower priority "od" until "live" hits it's wallclock scheduled time.
<?wsx version="1.0″ encoding="utf-8″?>
<priorityClass id="live" lower="pause">
<media src="http://encodermachine:8080″ begin="wallclock(17:41:00)"/>
<priorityClass id="od">
<seq repeatCount="indefinite" begin="0s">
<media src="C:\wmpub\WMRoot\snowboard_300.wmv"/>
<media src="C:\wmpub\WMRoot\powered_by_300.wmv"/>
<media src="C:\wmpub\WMRoot\racecar_100.wmv"/>
There are times when you don't actually want to stream data the entire time you're waiting for the broadcast. You could throw up a banner video that says, "This video will not play until 5:41 PM" and put some groovy music behind it but the network admin is likely going to wonder why you've been chewing up bandwidth hours before the broadcast. So instead you may just want to start the broadcast at 5:41. You'd think you could delete the "od" priority class and just use the one "live" one to start whenever it's scheduled for. However, there's a requirement in WMS that when a publishing point starts it actually has to play something. Not indefinitely, but it does need to successfully see bits going through the pipeline. So what you do instead is something like this:
<?wsx version="1.0″ encoding="utf-8″?>
<priorityClass id="live" lower="pause">
<media src=http://encodermachine:8080 begin="wallclock(17:41:00)"/>
<priorityClass id="od">
<seq begin="0s">
<media src="C:\wmpub\WMRoot\pinball.wmv"/>
Note that all that really happened was that I removed the repeatCount. I changed the "od" priority class to be just the one short pinball.wmv, but that's only because it's the shortest of the sample clips. So what happens is that when the publishing point starts pinball.wmv would play to the end. If you have a client connect as soon as the publishing point starts they will see pinball play and then a black screen. The client may timeout after a couple of minutes because no data is actually being sent. The publishing point won't start sending data until lthe wallclock scheduled time. At that point clients can connect and view the live stream.

Demonic NightmareMature
Chapter 12- Ryan's fate
As Ryan stood in the sun wondering how he was going to track the one responsible for all of this a series of happy moments with her flashed in his mind as he knew why he loved her as she was herself.
No matter what people thought about her she never let that stop her and she was always there to help the world with their problems. He could never explain it when some asked him why he loved her as all he knew was that he felt like he had to always be there to protect her and this situation he found himself in now was no exception.
But before he had time to react he felt a sharp pain in his neck wondering how the hell that happened he said to himself." What the hell where did this pain come from?" before he could finish that sentence however he collapsed on the hard, uncomfortable concrete floor.
Panic spread across Ryan's body the moment he woke up in a building he had never adventured into before. Then he knew who kidnapped him and why they wanted him locked up in here it was so he could greet death with open arms.
Ryan thought to himself yeah right I am not going down so easily and if I go down. Then I am going to make sure I save Kate in the process as that is what I was chosen to do.
Just as that thought came into his head he suddenly noticed that he was lying down on something. What was it? A table or a bench?. If so why was he lying down it must all be a part of Kate's dark half's evil and unforgiving plan that would probably end up in my death well time to face some demons.
The moment Ryan thought about fighting against Kate's demons she appeared in front of his face. The room's temperature seemed to decrease dramatically as that wasn't the women he fell madly in love with for a really long time staring at him. This was a clone but a clone that had a sick mind he could tell by the way she stared at him it made shivers travel down his spine and pray to god that it wasn't too late to save her.
Ryan built up the courage to talk to this clone of his girlfriend that was standing right in his face as if she was studying him like he was a new discovery.
Ryan" Kate I know that you're the one that killed all of those people, but I am here for you so you can get through this you're not alone".
Kate" Oh you do make me laugh I am pleased I decided to kidnap you last as I am going to enjoy your torture the most".
Ryan" Stop this Kate I know this isn't the real you as I had a dream about your good half begging me to help free it from its prison".
Kate looked at Ryan with great interest and wonder then she thought to herself that isn't possible there is no way my good half could of contacted this fool. But wait oh I see because they are deeply in love they have mental contact oh this is precious.
Kate" Well then chosen one what is your great plan of rescuing me as so far you haven't got very far and now you're my prisoner so there isn't a single thing you can do so game over you lost".
Ryan"It's far from over yet even though I can't move I can save you in other ways".
Kate" Oh really? You sound like Dawid now and you know what happened to him in the end".
Ryan" I know you better than anyone else so I know how you truly feel about everything and I know for a fact that you want to be saved from the demon that now processes your body".
Kate" You must be a fool to believe such nonsense as while I am like this I have the power to do anything I want. What do you have?"
Ryan "I have unconditional love for you and that is what wins over power, I know this isn't the real you and that everything that happened to you got out of hands. But I am here for you and I always will be because I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART".
Kate" I just........ I just don't know it feels to strong and I don't know if I am strong enough to hold it back for my good side to gain control again".
Ryan" I know you can do it as I believe in you just remember you're not alone and what happened wasn't your fault. Even Dan and Dawid are here for you to help you get out of this nightmare"
Kate" But how is that possible? I killed them in the cruel and painful way possible there is no way they could still want to help me after that".
Ryan thinking to himself alright my plan is working as Kate is starting to become the person that we all love. I just need to push her a bit more and then she will be free from this demon that is taking control of her body.
Kate starting to cry begs Ryan" I don't know what to do please help me as I don't know how to fight this darkness that has taken over me"
Ryan" I am here for you as I always have and will be, I will never give up on you and you will fight this you just need to take small steps at a time".
Kate" Ok then that sounds like a plan to me, let's do it where do I start?"
Ryan" You can start by releasing me from my prison so then I can help you much easier"
Kate" Ok then that sounds like a good plan to me, hold on a minute my love"
But before Kate had a chance of releasing her one true love from his prison the dark side too over again. Then it said to Ryan in a creepy tone" You really think I was going to fall for that?" I haven't changed at all I was only pretending and you fell deep into my trick"
Ryan screamed at Kate" You bitch get out of my girlfriend's body and stay the hell out right now"
Kate" I don't think I will bother as I am having way too much fun but enough talking it's time for the torture to begin".
Ryan trying to be reasonable with the demon that corrupt his girlfriend said "Please don't do this I know this will only haunt you for the rest of your life later".
But the next thing that Ryan felt was agonising pain as he couldn't feel the bottom half of his body he screamed out to Kate. "What the hell did you do to the bottom half of my body?, as I can't feel it anymore".
Kate just laughed and said "oh that's easy your lying down on a bench with a swinging pendulum blade over your head the reason you never saw it coming is I distracted your attention so you couldn't do a thing to stop it from happening"
Ryan" YOU BITCH for cutting the bottom half of my body clean of".
Kate" Don't worry I won't let you die so easily as the torturing has only just begun, let's continue shall we"
Ryan" Oh no not needles near the eyes no no nooooooooooooo"
Darkness is all that could be seen from Ryan's eyes as Kate stabbed one needle into each of his eyes as she knows that is what he can't stand watching so it makes it the perfect torture tool thank you good half looks like you're useful for something after all.
He knows that he didn't take this pain like a man but the pain was unbearable and now he not only lost the bottom half of his body he had become blind from a phobia he had ever since he can remember. What was he going to do he needed to save Kate but the more she kept torturing him the more it felt like all hope was lost and that she was beyond saving.
Then a light flashed in front of him but he knew he had become blind from that recent encounter so this doesn't make any sense then he realized he was in his mind again. There she was radiating happiness all around her and that smile she had made him feel all warm with happiness it was the version of Kate he loved that would never tortured anyone.
She spoke kind caring words to him with panic showing clearly in her movements towards him. She said " Ryan oh my god what has my dark half done to you?, this should never have happened ever. You need to keep fighting don't give up and then I can be freed from my prison I love you with all my heart and soul and I am right here with you always"
After that she kissed his lips it felt so good as if all the pain he felt had washed away, this Kiss gave him the strength to keep fighting then he knew what he had to do. He had to let death take a hold of him as that was the only way to free Kate's body from the darkness and with that the last thing he heard was Kate's good half whisper in his ear I LOVE YOU before she faded away.
Kate's dark half looked confused as a minute ago she knew that lover boy was worn down and about to give up and now suddenly he looked as if he could fight anything that came his way. Then she thought damn my good half interfering with my plans she is no fun.
Ryan" Kate even though you stole away my legs and my eye sight I am still ready more than ever to welcome all the torture you give me"
. As I know that when I die I will be able to wait for Kate's good side in heaven so we can be together FOREVER. Just face it Demon you have lost now be gone from Kate's body"
Kate screamed out" ENOUGH HOW DARE YOU TALK TO ME LIKE THAT IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO SAY GOODBYE"
With that Kate moved the swinging blade pendulum over Ryan's chest and with one swing it was all over. The battle the Ryan fought bravely was over as the second that pendulum hit his chest with such an impactful force he WAS DEAD.
Kate laughed in her eerie cold laugh then in excitement shouted to the world " I HAVE DONE IT THE PLAN I HAVE BEEN WAITING YEARS TO ACHIEVE I DID IT. I WON NOW MY GOOD HALF WILL NEVER RECOVER FROM THIS MY WORK HERE IS DONE.
Here you go good half I release you from the prison I trapped you in, your body is now yours to control as my mission is finally complete.
Kate thought it felt good to get her body back from her dark half but WAIT something felt wrong, what had my dark half done and what did she mean that her mission was finally complete.
Kate was about to discover the horrors that awaited her and the destruction that her other half left behind in her wake.

Sprint to Arrive Late to the Windows Phone Party in 2013
Jason Mick

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Sprint "pulls an iPhone" when it comes to Windows Phone
Sprint Nextel Corp. (
) lately seems to have a knack for latching onto other carriers' good ideas well after the party has started. Sprint
bent over
backwards financially
to become America's
third and final major iPhone carrier
, is now looking to be a late guest at another hot party -- Windows Phone 8.
The good news for fans of the nation's third largest carrier, and sole remaining proprietor of "unlimited" mobile data, is that you will eventually get your hands on Windows Phone 8. The bad news is that you won't get the opportunity to get your hands on WP8 hardware this year.
Sprint is the
only major U.S. carrier not to offer WP8 hardware
for the holidays.
In an emailed statement to
PC Magazine
a Sprint spokesperson
, "Sprint and Microsoft are partnering to bring Windows Phone 8 to Sprint's customers - operating on its 4G LTE network - next year."
The carrier previously did test the waters with a single Windows Phone 7 device -- HTC Corp.'s (
) Arrive. While lacking hardware-wise, the Arrive nonetheless held the highest owner satisfaction score on Sprint for some time. But the enthusiasm was not enough to stop Sprint from
killing sales of the badly aging handset earlier this year
, nor was it enough to guarantee an immediate replacement.
Sprint will be the last major carrier to board the Windows Phone 8 train, arriving in 2013.
But Windows Phone does have a key ally at Sprint in a pivotal position. David Owens, director of device acquisition at the carrier, in May said he felt "bullish" about the LTE-endowed Windows Phone 8 platform.
For the holidays Sprint customers will have to choose between a smaller selection than on rival carriers. However, the carrier is offering some premium handsets on other platforms, including Apple, Inc.'s (
iPhone 5
, Samsung Electronics Comp. Ltd.'s (
phone-cum-tablet Galaxy Note II
, and LG Electronics, Inc.'s (
Optimus G
One good thing for those waiting for Windows Phone 8 is that you'll at least likely be treated to broader LTE coverage, versus Sprint's
current relatively lackluster deployment
, which only covers select areas of the Midwest, including Chicago and St. Louis, along with a handful of other locations nationwide.
Softbank Corp. (
) a rising power in the Japanese market is
set to take majority of ownership of Sprint
in early 2013 after a purchase plan announced in mid-October. The deal is worth $20.1B USD.
PC Magazine
"Intel is investing heavily (think gazillions of dollars and bazillions of engineering man hours) in resources to create an Intel host controllers spec in order to speed time to market of the USB 3.0 technology." -- Intel blogger Nick Knupffer

ESurance--the rates aren't high, but you sure are.
DC is home to many fly-by-night, low rent rendezvous car insurance companies, and we know them by their commercials. The straight-out-tha-strip club insurance dancers of the old Gebco commercials being perhaps the most famous. I mean, if you find yourself unable to get reputable insurance, you'd think that it'd be time to reflect on your life and the actions you took to bring yourself to this lowly state. Gebco's philosophy, on the other hand was "Forget your troubles, come on, and get a foot up between Tina's buttery ass."
There's another one now with commercials of even lesser production value that feature the tagline: "Tell those other insurance companies to kiss your bumper!" Yeah. Leaving aside the similar need for self-reflection, I don't think that leaving "Kiss my bumper!" on an answering machine is going a long way to sticking it to State Farm.
Tom, over at Unrequited Narcissism, however, reminds us today of the newest and, I daresay, classiest of this breed, eSurance, who's commercials are cartoons in the vein of Kim Possible featuring a spy named Erin, eluding evil agents and tipping the same old Schmoe off about how eSurance is all like, hella convenient and shit.
Browse on out to the eSurance site and you can take in some cartoons that didn't make the late-night TV cut, including my favorite:
Serials. Gotta love someone that'll save some green. And it looks she's up in the Pacific Northwest, there, too, don't it. Clearly, she's on a double secret background assignment from Method Man.
Be sure to tune in for the next adventure: "Erin files a claim and carefully cleans the bongwater off the dashboard." Kiss my stash, just kiss it!

Low-field colossal magnetoresistance in manganite tunnel spin valves
CEA Saclay, Service de physique de l'état condensé, 91191 Gif-sur-Yvette,
2 UMR CNRS/Thomson-CSF, LCR, domaine de Corbeville, 91404 Orsay Cedex, France
Accepted: 10 July 1997
We report on the magnetoresistive properties of all-oxide tunnel spin valves in which electrodes of mixed valence manganites are separated by a thin insulating layer. The structures were prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition and several tunnel barriers were used including , and . The latter gives the largest magnetoresistive effect where the trilayer's resistance is increased by a factor of 5.5 at 50 Gauss and 4.2 K. Analysis of the temperature variation of the barrier resistivity shows that the dramatic loss of the magnetoresistive effect above 150 K is due to a reduced oxygen content of the interface between and . Solving this problem should lead to similar results at room temperature.

text: Androsolve is highly recommended by me. It's where we've been these past 8 months and it has been great. Many ordinary citizens go to school to learn that cleverness. No matter what type of Androsolve you have, you can learn to do that. That may be true if you reckoned that germane to Androsolve because actually could hurt a little. It isn't my best work but here are my terribly essential statements as that regards to Androsolve. Maybe I can help you get started tonight by going over Androsolve. There are gimmicks that you can miss when it is on par with Androsolve. http://androsolveblog.com/

fast internet
they lied
I had the service for 3 days. They came in, reused my existing cabling ( to include HDMI's), then cut the coax that ran to rooms I didn't order from them. Their channels suck and their remote and guide is arduous, so I cancelled it. For 3 days they charged me $91. I spoke to a 'live chat' who tried to convince me that $91 was fair for 3 days of service. I had to pay it. I bet they make a fortune off of people that way. And you can't email them either. You can call, and waste your time, or live chat and waste your time. Nothing is documented either way. Thieves.
it's fast
they lied
I was going to try 30 days (and I was actually going to switch), but 3 days later, the remote was arduous, the channel line up didn't compare with Dish and I just didn't like it. Also, the techs cut all my existing inhouse coax, except what they didn't reuse. Well, they charged me $91 for those 3 days. I called, I spent hours on the 'live chat" is still $91 for 3 days.
Good when it works
Consistently and SHAMELESSLY throttle bandwidth
I'd like to believe Charter just gets slows very often, and that's why at certain times my internet will either shut off completely or get so slow I can't even load blank pages in WordPress.
For a long time I wasn't sure if Charter throttles the speed of their customers. Sometimes when I'm watching Netflix for a few hours the connection will cut off, and I'll have to wait a few hours before it turns back on.
The first few times I thought it was maybe just a coincidence that Charter ends up having problems with their service whenever I happen to be watching Netflix or working heavily on my website, but it has happened way too often and way too consistently under the same conditions for it to be a coincidence. I'm not sure what the data cap is, they were kind enough to not inform me about data caps when I signed up, but I'm convinced they're throttling my speeds. I don't mind so much with Netflix, but when I'm in the middle of working on a website and the connection just cuts off for several hours, that's unacceptable. I'll be looking somewhere else for service, or dropping these guys and staying off the internet for awhile. No more money for these shady companies.
no pro
not reliable
I`ve had Charter internet for a long time , but in the last few weeks it`s on & off On & Off lousy internet Their phone is pretty reliable but the internet two thumbs down !.
speed it good
Deceptive pricing, rate goes up after 12 months
Charter does deceptive advertising. Although their connection is good I am giving a negative review of the company because of their website and deceptive practices. All prices on their website are introductory prices.But does not say the word introductory. After 12 months the price goes up. To what? that is actually not anywhere on the website. THE PRICES FOR CHARTER ARE NOT TO BE FOUND ANYWHERE ON THE CHARTER WEBSITE. Even in the product disclaimers all the way at the bottom of the site it only says "after 12 months standard rates will apply" but it does not say what that rate will be. For me it meant at an increase of 50%. Better ask what the actually price will be because it is not published publicly. Your bill will show your new higher price after 12 months.
slow , unreliable , bad cust service , high price , lousy lousy lousy
total crap , nothing good to say
Horrible…this company only goes where they have 0 competition and they are horrible but can get away with it because they are the only choice…advertise speeds of 69 mbs but actually get 11 mbs at best…pleasant view Tennessee…hate em …worse than Comcast , they do the same stupid troubleshoots everytime acting like its equipment or something…ITS YOUR CRAPPY SYSTEM !!!! …con artist losers and liars…very unhappy
Auto Saves Sent Emails
Lost Important Information sent to Folders, Slow speed, Not user friendly, Compared to all other email systems I've had this is the worst one, No response to feedback, I can not trust this system
Poor system compared to all others I have worked with. On a scale 1 to 10 where 10 is best, to me this is a 2 at best.
e mail
I have been using your new e-mail service for a few weeks now and I will have to admit that I absolutely hate it and as soon as my wife get back from working in china we are going to switch. its slow to use and not very user friendly as before. sometimes change is not good , as is in this case. I don't know who designed this for you but you should fire him. Steve Wallace
Pretty fast
Dreadful troubleshooting support
Intermittent service interruptions over several years. Charter persists in following the same repair routine every time, even though they've had dozens of experiences with my service that have proven that their repair procedures don't work. But they persist in doing what has proven time after time to not fix the problem. Probably total incompetence at the management level.
after 39 years Charter finally allow us cable in our area...
after 39 years Charter allows cable in our area but not at 3 homes including mine.
My neighbor has Charter for over 4 years but not 3 homes within 500 ft of neighbors receiving Charter.Then one day they allowed one more home cable. Charges were too much for family nd we all use one address but separate homes so now bill must be paid before we are allowed cable etc services….speed nd distance was awesome when they had wifi. Never any probs.
very few
lots of negative reviews
I was considering changing from Time Warner to Charter. Since I have read these reviews I have decided against it. Thanks for all the reviews. It sounds like Charter needs to considerably improve their reliability and customer service before I switch to them. Too scary for me. I'll look elsewhere.
I've had Charter for 4 years, ALWAYS price goes up, they state "it's not a price increase, you had a SPECIAL for 2 years now the special is over and your bill increased by 50.00"
I live in a place where it is Charter or nothing, makes me want to move!
If I could give a negative star I would!!!!
Service is fast same day
They can't fix my problem over a month now
On demand for TV basic channels not updated with new shows for a month now – useless to me
Don't subscribe!
They took over for optimum in Wyoming last year. Service stinks ever since. Now they have gone all digital. They want me to rent a cable box for every TV in my house at $6.99 a month per box. What a rip off. They could have given me some small DTA boxes to keep watching the basic channels on some of the TVs, but no suggestion of that. Cannot reach a real person. They stink. I am switching to another carrier now.
I don't use them but the box is in my backyard. They didn't bury the cable. It's exposed to my dogs and anyone who goes in my.backyard. it is a hazard. They promised to correct this. No one showed up. I have made numerous phone calls to no avail. Don't use Chsrter! Live stream, it's cheaper and better.
Everything else
This company is only about selling you services or packages. They put very little effort into keeping their current customers happy or running. Took them 3 days to get my internet back after they had switched something out on my pole. As I work from home this lost me THREE days of work. They scheduled an appt. 3 days out and then called every 12 hours to re-confirm appt. threatening to cancel appt. if you did not answer the call and confirm. OMG
Faster Porn
Now I can watch porn faster than ever.
If I phone about a problem a number of times and get different personel, they contradict each other and a few downright lie. This market should be open for other companies so Charter doesn't have a monopoly. There is a bill in congress that would allow a customer to pick his channels and pay for only those. But no one has moved on it.
bad company
Extremely poor organization to attempt to do business with
The longer that you are with Charter, the higher your monthly bill becomes. New customers get service for $19.99, long term customers get to pay $57.00 and then listen to some smart aleck CSR explain to you how lucky you are!

Date of Stay: June, 2016
As the previous reviewers said, the camp is clean and woodsy. Our problems stem from the fact that this campground is not big rig friendly. The main roads are too narrow and the sites are not situated to allow easy access to 52 foot sites (our coach is 42'). Also, the adjacent sites had dogs that ran loose, barked incessantly, and were quieted occasionally by their owners yelling louder than the dogs were barking. If you go in early June the mosquitoes are terrible. We have tried this park twice now and we won't be back.
Date of Stay: November, 2015
We did a one night stopover on our way from Houston to Tucson. Very tidy campground with plenty of space between sites. Our site had a nice covered patio. The river makes an interesting walk with lots of birds. WiFi was pretty good but wireless was 1X on Verizon. We would definitely stay here again.
Date of Stay: October, 2015
I probably could have given this park a higher rating but they put us in site C2 for one night. It would be OK if we were in a travel trailer or small motorhome but we drive a 42' coach with 3 slides. I parked the passenger side tires on the edge of the gravel and only had about 8" between our slide and the trailer on C1. All of the pull-throughs are side by side hookups. All but C1/C2 have about 6 ft of grass separating the units on the hookup side. C1/C2 has zero clearance so if your unit lines up with the hookup post you are zero clearance from the other unit. So if you are driving a big coach and they tell you they are going to put you in C1 or C2, go elsewhere.
Date of Stay: October, 2015
I would give this park a better rating except that I am sitting here listening to loud music from the campers across the street who not only play their hip-hop loud but also have disco lights emanating from their stereo. The site is difficult to level with air only leveling as it is not level front to back. We are on site G11 and if your sat dish is in the rear of your coach you will get satellite but if it is in the front you won't. Also, trust your GPS when you tell it to skip gravel roads. If you follow the campground signs you get 2 miles of rough gravel roads. So if you don't mind an out of level, party campground, you will enjoy it here.
Date of Stay: September, 2015
If you are an experienced RV'er looking for great place to stay, this is it. The sites are huge and level. The sites and areas around the sites are immaculately maintained. The owners enforce the rules to keep the park nice and safe. If you are looking for activities they have them on the weekends. We are usually looking for a peaceful campground with access to local sights and shopping and this is wonderful for that. We used to stay at a fancy RV resort near Acme but his campground is quieter and way less expensive. If you are visiting the Traverse City area I would highly recommend it.
Date of Stay: June, 2006
If this park was anywhere but 2 miles from Bryce it would be empty. The sites are laid out strange, out of level in many cases, and mostly dirt. The dust is terrible and no one has cut the weeds. To stay 7 days we had to stay in 2 sites. We asked for a site with no trees and they put us in a site with nothing but trees. When we went to the office to get a new site they said "What Trees?". The help is mostly work campers and I don't think they've ever been in the park. I won't stay here again.
Date of Stay: October, 2005
This is a well kept park with awesome views of the Pioneer mountains. Nice big pull thrus , wide access roads, and great satellite signal. Easy-on/Easy-off but no freeway or train noise. Good water pressure and voltage.

House panel eyes dropping 'concealed' from Texas gun law
Associated Press
April 28, 2011, 10:45AM
AUSTIN The House Committee on Homeland Security and Public Safety wants to take the "concealed" part out of concealed handgun licenses.
The committee voted 5-3 in favor of a bill that would remove the word "concealed" from the law that allows Texans to have a handgun license. The so-called open carry law would allow license holders to carry their weapons in plain view wherever they would be allowed to carry a concealed handgun. The rules for getting a license would not change.
Texarkana state Rep. George Lavender authored the bill that was approved Wednesday. In a committee hearing last week, advocates said the law would deter crime. Opponents warned it would create a dangerous and intimidating climate in densely populated cities.
The bill now goes to the full House for consideration.
That sounds very good. Good luck

This would be fine and dandy.
I won't be making use of the ability to open carry however except on my own place or perhaps a deer lease and I've been doing that all my life.

The text was posted here in another thread a few weeks back, and only wishful thinking could put the interpretation that this will be only for OC on it. That might be the intent, but it is not the letter of the proposed law.
Ernie, sorry I started another thread on this. I didn't see yours. Hope the mods merge them, though I think we are interpreting the legislation in 180 degree opposite ways.
So, if I'm reading this right... you would be allowed to open carry BUT NOT ALLOWED to conceal carry any longer ? ? ? I wouldn't like that, I would want the option to go either way ... open or concealed.

Chief Justice John Roberts : "I don't see how you can read Heller and not take away from it the notion that the Second Amendment...was extremely important to the framers in their view of what liberty meant."
So, a handgun license gets issued. Fine. That's a license to what? OC? CC? Both.
The poorly drafted legislation which was posted here certainly didn't make anything clear.
Now I don't know if they fixed anything in the last few weeks. Maybe what passed the House Committee today had cleaner language than the earlier draft. I hope so.
I am just really fearful of a stupidly constructed bill passing that leaves us with a handgun license good only for OC.
(Mods-- I think we have three threads, maybe 4, on the same subject going simultaneously.)
I still like the concealed part,but if it passes some of the situations of MWAG calls my friend got jacked on will be a thing of the past.On the other hand,I can make a Bar B Q holster and belt for my 1911

Chiyoko's Tale
The boy sneezed. He was completely drenched from the rain that had been pouring from the sky these past few hours. He sat, huddled up next to a nearby house, his arms resting atop his knees and his chin in turn resting upon his arms. His eyes staring blindly into the depthes of space, his expression revealed nothing. Somehow something about him seemed odd, and he seemed in some way more fragile and delicate that was normal for a young man his age. Even so if I had to pick one word to describe him it would be "determined." I'm not sure why, but he just seamed to radiate determination, and also though it seemed as though he was trying his very best to hide it, I could tell he was desperate. All in all I determined that this was a very dangerous young man.
Of course now I have a problem, what do I do now? He doesn't appear to have seen me yet, so maybe I could just leave, but if I just left I'd never know anything more about him, he would remain a mystery in my mind and I would eternally regret not taking this chance I have to talk to him. After all, life is never a sure thing, and for all I know, either of us may be dead tomorrow. So took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and tried to think of a way to approach him.
Just then lightning flashed in the sky, and thunder rumbled less than three seconds later, and my instincts told me that a much worse storm was headed this way quickly. I abandoned all reason I had left, and though all of my instincts screamed in protest, I dashed out from under the limited protection and shelter the overhang of the roof of a small shop had given, and out into the street. The lightning flashed again, and this time the thunder was almost right on top of it. I ran faster and managed to get to the other side before the next flash of lightning split the sky. Once I was there, I had practically forgotten why I had come, until I heard a voice from my left,
"Hello?" I jumped in surprise, then I remembered, and knew who it must be.
"Hello," I answered weakly, "Can I sit here with you?"
"Umm...sure...I mean why wouldn't you be able to?"
"Oh, no reason I guess."
At that point I realized that he wasn't looking directly at me but instead at some point a little above the top of my head. I couldn't help but wonder why, but I was scared so I didn't ask.
"So...um...why are you out here in the rain?" I asked still more than a little scared, and my voice probably showed it.
"Why do you care?" he demanded, suddenly defensive, "It's not like it effects you any!"
Even more afraid than before I immediately broke, "I'm sorry! I'm very sorry! It was none of my business! I had no right to ask!" I hurriedly said all in a rush, "Please don't hurt me!"
He appeared quite taken aback by my response. He blinked a few times and said, "Hurt you? Why would I hurt you? And don't apologize, it wasn't your fault, just don't ask again."
I slowly lowered my arms from in front of my face and peaked out at him. He didn't seam all that angry, at least not anymore. I decided it was safe to come out again.
"I won't ask for any more than you choose to tell me, I promise!" I said sincerely.
And that is how I, Chiyoko, and Arashi first met.

I'd never believed in fate, and I certainly had no faith in a god. But I was beginning to think some things were just meant to be. Everything was better for me. I'd come to realize that sometimes things fall apart, and we dont know why, but it turns out they are only making room for something better to fill the hole. Xander had completed me, healed me. And my scars began to fade, and for the first time in a month I didnt feel the need to replace them.
"Alright," Wynter said one day after school, slamming her bookbad onto the table as he kicked off her Converse lowtops. "Spill."
I bit my cheeks to contain my smile, continued on with my math homework. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Bulshit," Wynter snapped. I thought that in that moment, she'd never seemed more like me. "You're smiling, Reina. You dont smile. I heard you singing in the shower. A month ago you were crying yourself to sleep."
"You could hear that?"
"The walls are paper thin, Reina. Now tell me what's going on."
Looking up at my sister, I tucked a stray strand of hair behind my tripple pierced ear. "I'm going to dye it black, I think," I told her off-handedly. "I'll have Melissa and Lexi help me."
Wynter rolled her eyes, turning to pul a can of Coke from the fridge. "You are avoiding my question."
I shrugged. "Only a little bit."
"Whatever," she growled in that tone she used when she was clearly annoyed and wanted the whole world to feel her pain. "I'm onto you, Reina Pewter," she added before disappearing down the hall.
I was still sitting at the table, consumed by the monster that was geometry, when my dad came in. "Hey," I said casually. He gave me a half-hearted wave as he passed. "What's up?"
Only when he neglected to reply did I look up. Then I kicked my chair back and stumbled to my feet, because my dad was crying. I'd no sooner thrown my arms around him than the sobs began to turn hysterical, and I was crying too and I didnt even know why, and I was screaming for Wynter because she was so much stronger than me.
"Daddy?" I heard her feeble little cry, felt her arms around us both.Holding us both. "Daddy, what's wrong?"
As though something inside of him had snapped, he wriggled from noth out graspsl moving away until his back was against the counter. His face ws red and streaked with fallen tears. "There's no way to say it that wont break me down again," he said slowly. "So I might as well just say it. Your mother died."
Numb. I became numb at that moment. I completely vacated myself until there was nothing but a shallow heartbeat. Beside me, Wynter had broken out into quiet sobs. But I was perfect still in my nothigness.
"She overdosed," he added. "I mean, I know she didnt contribute much to the family, but...I know how much she loved you girls."
I heard his words without really hearing them. When he came ove to give me one last hug, I felt it without really feeling it. When Wynter took my hand, I squeezed her own tightly, because her slender, icy fingers in mine were the only thing I could feel. I closed my eyes and stood unmoving, and wondered why I was never allowed to be happy.
