WASHINGTON, D.C. — After a five-year absence from the tournament, D.C. United returned to the CONCACAF Champion's League Wednesday night with a 1-0 win over Waterhouse F.C. in their first game of the group stage of the tournament.
It took just five minutes for D.C. United to take the lead, but they would hold it until the final whistle at RFK Stadium in front of a crowd of 3,300.
David Estrada received a long pass from Connor Shanosky and took possession down the right side, beating his man and carrying it into the penalty box. He played a smooth back pass to Eddie Johnson, who beat Waterhouse goalkeeper Richard McCallum with a shot over his head, connecting with the roof of the net for the game's lone goal.
As the game wore on, chemistry issues for the unit made up of mostly reserves that Olsen trotted out were made very visible. D.C. United committed 21 fouls in the match and registered just three shots on goal.
"We were off a little bit with some of the patterns and the partnerships out there," Olsen said. "But that's normal when a team that hasn't played together a lot out on the field."
Estrada and Johnson played with each other last season for the Seattle Sounders, and Olsen saw tonight as an opportunity to re-unite a former bond.
"There's a little bit of familiarity with them; I'm sure they passed it to each other a couple of times in Seattle," Olsen said. "We worked all week to speed up some of the cohesion, some of the partnerships; we did a lot of pattern work, a lot of shape work, but it's tough when you get into real games with guys that aren't playing with each other week in and week out. "
In the 31st minute, Johnson found himself one-on-one with McCallum again, this time in a foot race with the goalkeeper, chasing after a long pass from Collin Martin. McCallum got there first by just seconds, knocking the ball away, notching another missed opportunity for the home team.
The second half was the same song and dance. On the offensive end, D.C. United struggled to muster up any cohesion, while on the defensive end, they stopped all efforts put forth from Waterhouse as the Jamaican side continued to try shots from distance.
"We watched some video and saw that they like to take long shots," D.C. United goalkeeper Joe Willis said. "Pretty much anytime I saw someone dribbling inside our own half I was preparing for a shot."
Perhaps the best chance of the night from Waterhouse was in the 63rd minute when Kenardo Forbes fired a shot-on-goal from about 25 yards out. A diving Willis was able to grab the shot heading towards the lower left corner.
"We pressed really hard in the last minutes," Waterhouse F.C. head coach Anthony Patrick said. "(D.C. United) were closing up in front of the goal, so we had to take those long shots."
Waterhouse fired 21 shots on the night, six of them on goal and six of them saved by Willis who has spent the majority of this season with D.C. United's USL-Pro affiliate, the Richmond Kickers.
"I have so much confidence in Joe and he knows that," Olsen said. "The back four and Joe played very well; credit them for getting the clean sheet."
Watch the highlights below:
Way to start the tourney with a win!
Waterhouse FC outplayed DC for all but about 10 minutes. Hollow victory for DC United's B team.
No such thing as a hollow victory when it comes with 3 points in cup competition.
DCU has 5 games in 15 days. It got the result it needed to get and didn't play any regulars and even got by with playing guys horribly out of position (midfielder Caskey at left back, CB Attakora at right back). The team that DCU started has played in only 4 games (excluding EJ who is currently suspended by MLS) this year in MLS (with 3 starts).
The Imperative Voice
In USOC or CCL, teams routinely field B sides and the only thing that matters is whether they get the result. There are no style points. You either take the heat off the starters (so they can play league) and advance, or you don't.
The more telling resut is a team like Newcastle tries to thread a cup needle and gets shellacked. But this is job done and on to the next game, when points are tallied no one cares how it went.
That makes no sense. They fielded a weak B team and managed 3 points…that's fantastic any way you look at it.
Jimmy Bobo
Did the Waterhouse club use their first team?
Yes. This is a big deal for the Jamaicans.
This competition has a long way to go, judging by the number of Mickey Mouse game like this one, with B teams and tiny crowds.
MLS teams using b teams is a good thing, that's what better teams do in the early stages of cups. And yes, the crowd was awful, but considering Waterhouse doesn't have much of a following outside Jamaica, the thunderstorms that killed any chance of a walkup gate, that these tickets weren't included in the STH package, and that this is vacation week in DC (schools start Monday, congress is in recess, and the weather is usually awful; the only other weeks dc is this dead is christmas and thanksgiving) it's only to be expected.
The Mickey Mouse nickname doesn't make a lot of sense. Huge crowds at Disney Land Disney World etc hundreds of thousands go there everyday. Who doesn't know who Mickey Mouse is? His friends are extremely popular too.
Anyone want to offer new word to belittle our conference champions?
Hahahaha… i find the dramatic background music hilarious. Its so intense and then the highlights are shots goin wide and players falling over, knees getting iced.. hahaha. Give me a break.

A Requiem for Innocence
Chapter One
It was midnight. Probably a little bit after midnight actually. Yami had a clock and could have looked over at it to check if he'd wanted, but he didn't much want to. He'd been laying there on his bed ever since he got home, knowing he was acting foolish, and he didn't really want to know exactly how long he'd laid there, staring blankly at the ceiling but not seeing it. Not seeing anything. Not even wanting to see anything, just wanting to lie there alone and go over what had happened that evening, go over it again and again and immortalize it in his mind.
Because he knew that after this night, his life wasn't going to be the same.
Four hours earlier: 8:30pm
Without warning, Yami had gotten the urge to go buy more Duel Monsters cards. This wasn't uncommon, hardly a week passed that he didn't go and collect more. It was the sort of thing you do when you're obsessed with games and happen to have a lot of spare money sitting around. And, to Yami's great fortune, not only was he obsessed with games, but he'd also recently won another tournament and had way more money than he thought he really needed.
There were two other hobby stores on the way from his apartment to the Kame Game shop, but he ignored these on his way. His urge to go buy cards was partially due to his love for the game, but more due to his secret love for something else.
He scolded himself about it in the car on the way. Yugi's a seventeen-year-old high school student. You're a twenty-four-year-old, plus 5000, professional duelist with too much money and no other discernable life. It doesn't matter if Yugi was once your host, and it doesn't matter if he's impossibly cute. That is still no right for you to feel this way about him, got that?
It was rather pathetic because he knew full well that he could say whatever he wanted but it wouldn't change a thing. And what he found even more pathetic was how he'd repeated this same speech to himself so many times, he'd gotten it down to where he could repeat it exactly three times from leaving his own driveway to arriving at the game shop.
You are an incredibly sorry excuse for a person. He chided as he got out of the car. You're in love with a teenager! How shallow can you go? You ought to be ashamed of yourself!
Yugi, of course, had no idea how he felt. At least, Yami was pretty sure he didn't know. He'd tried extra hard to keep his feelings hidden. It hadn't been easy, especially during the time they'd shared a body, and Yugi had had easy access to his thoughts. If he ever suspected anything though, he certainly hadn't mentioned it, and Yami was taking no news as good news in this respect.
You never should have let it go this far. You should have stopped yourself back when you still could.
He walked up to the door and stopped for a moment with a sigh, his hand on the knob. There was no use thinking it. He knew full well there had never been a point when he "still could". From the start he'd been attracted to Yugi's innocence, to his pure spirit and his kindness and his heart. He had never had a chance to stop himself.
As he stood there, he happened to glance over to his side and noticed another car parked off to the side of the house. He hadn't noticed that car when he'd pulled up. Maybe Yugi and his family were having company over.
"Hello?" he asked, opening the door. The downstairs was empty, which would have made sense to anyone else. Technically the shop was closed, but Yugi and his grandfather had told him to come by whenever he wanted to buy cards. Still, it was odd. Normally Yugi's grandfather at least was still down here, organizing the day's receipts and setting up the shelves for the next day. But the main room was empty. He walked inside and asked louder, "Anyone here?"
"Yami?" Yugi's voice drifted down the stairs and was soon followed by the teenager himself.
"Ah, hey. I hope I'm not interrupting anything." Yami apologized, figuring his earlier assumptions had been right and they were having company over. "I just wanted to pick up some more cards." He smiled a little too broadly and rubbed the back of his neck. "I know it's a bit late, but…well, you know how I am."
"I sure do." Yugi was obviously making a good try at sounding cheerful, but when he turned back to hand Yami the box of card packs, Yami saw an upset look in his eyes.
"Yugi…what's wrong?"
"Is it that obvious?" Yugi asked with a sigh.
"I'm really sorry if I'm interrupting your company." Yami said again, feeling guilty.
"No, no, it's not you. Don't worry about it. Here, do you want the latest set, or some of the older ones? I'll give you a deal on the newer set; we're getting a new shipment tomorrow."
Yami gave him a look as he got out his money. "Yugi, tell me what's wrong."
"It's nothing."
"No, you're upset about something, why won't you tell me what it is?"
Yugi glanced upstairs. "It's nothing." He repeated, handing Yami a bag.
"Who's visiting?" Yami finally asked.
Yugi was silent for a few moments. "My dad."
"Really?" Yami knew that Yugi's father was a businessman that was often away on trips around not only Japan, but in the US and Europe as well. He wasn't often home to visit.
"I'll guess your mom's pretty happy about that, huh?" Yami asked with a smile.
"I guess." The humour seemed to be lost on him.
Yami frowned. Something was definitely not right with Yugi this evening. His mind raced, trying to think of a way to stall Yugi long enough for him to spit out what was the problem. "Well, thanks for the cards. Ah…you know, the other day I dropped a pen down under the seat of my car, and my hand isn't small enough to get under it. Do you think you could get it out? It's one of my favourite pens."
"I could try." Yugi replied, following him out to the car. He felt around under the front seat for a moment and came up with a 100-yen coin and a black hair tie, but no pen.
Yami expected that. Of course there was no pen under the seat, he'd made it up. To keep Yugi from finding this out though, he just shrugged and said,
"Hmmn, maybe it rolled out. It's probably under the back seat. I can get it out later myself then."
"Alright." Was Yugi's reply as he turned back toward the shop.
"Well, good night." Yami called.
Yami watched him walk toward the door, then took off after him, grabbing him by the shoulder before he reached it.
"What're you doing?" Yugi demanded.
"Yugi, I know something's wrong with you." Yami replied, unable to take it anymore. "I want to know what it is. I might be able to help you."
"I told you, it's nothing!"
"If it was nothing, you wouldn't look so upset."
"It's nothing you can fix!"
"Why won't you just tell me what it is?"
Yugi stared at him for a moment, and without warning his eyes filled with tears.
"Yugi?" Yami asked in concern. "What is it? What's wrong?"
"What?" He took a step forward, his hands on Yugi's shoulders. "Yugi, please tell me."
"We're moving."
"Moving?" Yami repeated.
"To the United States, in America." Yugi finally whispered.
It hit Yami all at the same time. That must be why Yugi's father had come home, and why everyone was upstairs, probably in the middle of a family meeting. And Yugi…Yugi was going to be gone.
"My parents want me to finish my education there. And go to college there. They said it'll be good for me."
"But-but what about what you were always saying, that you were going to take over the Kame Game shop? I thought that was your dream?"
Yugi shook his head. "My dad…doesn't want me to run a shop. He wants me to be a businessman like he is. He told me an English education will be really helpful."
"Is that what you want?" Yami asked, only to have Yugi shout angrily at him,
"No, no it's not! Do you think I want to spend my life always traveling around, wearing a suit and tie and going to boring meetings, never getting to come home and see my family and friends? Do I look like I want a life like that?"
Taking a good look at Yugi's face, now streaked with tears that had spilled over and contorted in anger, Yami replied awkwardly, "No, no you don't."
Yugi glanced back at the shop and lowered his voice. "My dad says it'll be for my own good. I'll make way better money than I would running a shop. I'll be able to retire well later on, and never have to worry about being in debt because there is always work for a businessman in a good company. He says he's just trying to help me have the best life I can have. But I don't want that life, Yami. I just want to finish high school and start running the game shop myself and stay here in Domino."
"Haven't you told him that?" Yami asked, only to invite another verbal assault.
"Of course I have! But it doesn't make any difference! I've got another year of school to go, and my parents have the final say. They know what I want, but they told me it's impractical and that I can't spend my life playing games. I understand what they mean, I know it makes sense but…"
"But it's really not what you want, is it?" Yami asked softly.
"No, no it's not." Yugi looked down at the sidewalk sadly. "I'm going to miss you all."
Yami took his hands from Yugi's shoulders and put them around him. It was fairly dark out, he didn't have to worry about social etiquette, or anyone seeing them and asking questions. "I'm going to miss you, too, Yugi." He replied quietly, unable to resist stroking his hair a few times.
Yugi returned the hug. "Thanks."
"What for?"
"I don't know. Suddenly I feel better, so I thought I should thank you."
"Oh. Well, you're welcome then." Yami was now exceptionally glad it was dark- Yugi couldn't see him blushing.
"I don't think I can be a good businessman, Yami. I mean, can you imagine me wearing a suit?"
Yami blinked down into Yugi's hair. "No, not really. You might look rather silly."
"Exactly, it's just not my style to be so uptight like that all the time. I want to have fun with my life. Sure, not worrying about money is nice…but I want to enjoy myself. I think that's the most important thing. And I think I would have a great time here, I'd get to see my friends all the time and all the people that come to buy games…and it's really not THAT impractical. So what's the problem?"
"I understand."
"I wish my dad did."
"Maybe he'll change his mind." Yami suggested.
"Not likely."
"Oh…well…when are you moving?"
"In about two months. School in America begins in August or September. Mom wants us to be settled before I start twelfth grade."
It was June now, Yugi had turned seventeen only a few weeks before. Yami found it hard to believe that in just a couple of months, Yugi would be gone. It would be the answer to his impromptu card-trip problems, he supposed. And no more yelling at himself. But still…
"You're so lucky, Yami. You love your job and you've already got enough money to retire if you wanted to. And you're only twenty-four."
"More like 5024. I just discovered the secret to semi-eternal youth. Die young and seal yourself inside a puzzle for a few millennia." He replied, hoping to make Yugi laugh. It worked somewhat, Yugi did manage a smile.
"Well…I guess I should be going back upstairs. They'll wonder what's happened to me if I stay down here too long."
They released their hold on each other simultaneously and stood awkwardly for a moment.
"Well…Yugi…um, try not to worry too much. I mean, a lot can happen in a few months." Yami began, trying to sound optimistic.
"Maybe." Yugi looked doubtful. "I don't know Yami…I've lived in Domino my whole life. The idea of leaving…well, I don't really know if you completely understand, since this isn't your hometown. No offense."
"None taken."
"And my parents think the only reason I don't want to leave is because of my friends, and that's true, but that's really not the only reason…I have others, but they wouldn't understand. I mean, everyone has secrets, right? Secrets that no one else understands?"
"Oh, for sure." Yami agreed, thinking of his own secrets.
Yugi suddenly looked embarrassed. "I'm sorry…I didn't mean to bother you with my weird thoughts."
"No, really, it's okay. You've probably got a lot on your mind right now."
"Thank you Yami…of everyone I'll be leaving…I'm going to really miss you the most."
"I'll miss you a lot too, Yugi. I mean, where else can I walk into someone's house at 9:00 at night and not get shot, right?"
He finally succeeded in getting a small laugh out of Yugi. "Thanks Yami…you always know how to cheer me up."
"Aw, it's nothing." Yami brushed it off. "I wish I could help you not be so sad, though."
"But you have helped." Yugi glanced up at him. "I can't explain it but…I don't feel as bad anymore now that I've talked to you."
"Come on-"
"No, I'm serious."
Yami stared back at him, then lowered his eyes. "I'm glad I could help. I just wish I could take away all of the problems. I hate seeing you hurt."
"That's awfully nice of you, Yami. Thank you…but you don't need to worry about it. Maybe my parents are right, maybe this whole moving idea is a good one." Yugi looked doubtful though.
"Yugi, even if it'll assure a stable financial life, it's not worth it if you don't want it." Yami suddenly replied, reaching out and putting his hand back on Yugi's shoulder. "Don't try to convince yourself of anything like that."
Yugi stared back evenly. "But-"
"No 'buts'. If you're not going to be happy, don't do it, or at least not without a fight."
"I don't have a choice." Yugi raised his hand and placed it gently over Yami's. "It's not my place to say anything."
"Yugi…I know in your culture, your parents are supposed to know best, and you're supposed to always respect their choices. And I know it would be hard for you to disagree with them. But…I can't stand here and watch you suffer without saying something. I'm sorry. But I can't do it."
"So what're you saying, I should run away or something?"
"No, I'm just saying you shouldn't let them hold you back from your own dreams. And if that means running away…well, I'd be glad to donate some money to you. Heaven knows I have enough."
"Listen to yourself! Trying to stir up rebellion." Yugi shook his head. "I don't think I could run away. I'd end up staying with one of my friends and my parents would find me really easily."
"Okay, fine, I'll drop it. Just promise me something."
"Those secrets you were talking about? The reasons you want to stay? Try to explain them to your parents anyway. They might be hardheaded, but you ARE their son, so they can't be all bad, right?"
"It wouldn't be that easy. I'm not even sure I understand my own thoughts sometimes."
"Believe me, I know how that one goes." Yami muttered to himself. "Just…don't go agreeing with all this if you really don't want that sort of life. It's your own choice. Follow your own heart, not someone else's. And that's about the best advice I can give you."
"I wish everyone was as liberal as you are, Yami. Maybe the world would be a better place." Yugi replied quietly. "Well-like I said…I should be going back upstairs now."
"…Okay." Carefully he removed Yugi's hand from on top of his, foolishly chanced holding it for a moment, and then couldn't let him go.
Don't do anything stupid, Yami. He warned himself. Don't make a mistake you'll regret. Just take your hand away, and get in your car, before you do anything-
There was no point. Yugi's fingers were too warm and his skin too soft and his face too close, and it was too late for a mental talk to do anything. Their lips had already connected before Yami could finish his mantra:
And it was now, as they drew closer together and his eyes dropped shut and he felt Yugi wrap his arms around him, that Yami realized something for the first time. That maybe because he'd been spending so much time trying to keep his own feelings hidden, he'd failed to notice that Yugi, too, was hiding a secret. The exact same secret. And that now of all times, when in only two months Yugi would be gone, was when they would discover it…the irony was between beautiful and cruel.
The kiss lasted only a few moments, and then Yugi broke away and backed up, his eyelashes hiding his eyes so Yami couldn't see them. He held Yami's hand for a second longer, then let him go and took off at a run to the shop, opening the door and vanishing inside.
Yami remained standing on the street. Finally he glanced at the shop, whispered, "Good night, Yugi", got in his car, and drove quietly home.
That had been only four hours before.
And now Yami lay on his bed, in the same place he'd thrown himself when he got home, and even though his eyes were open and he was staring at the ceiling, all he saw in his vision was Yugi's face. And even though it would have been simple to try to dismiss this night's events as his own fault, (Yugi had, after all, been upset and Yami had clearly taken advantage of his raw emotions), Yami couldn't completely blame himself no matter how hard he tried. Because even though it was true that Yugi had been upset and in need of comfort-any sort of comfort-the facts remained. No matter how one looked at it, Yami thought, Yugi had still kissed him back. He hadn't had to do that, he could have pulled away whenever he wanted. But not only had he not resisted the kiss, he'd returned it.
It might have been their first kiss, and it might have been only in innocence, but Yami knew deep down inside that even if it was their last too, it wouldn't matter. It had been the moment he'd waited so long for. And, unbeknownst to him at the time, it had also been the moment Yugi had been dreaming of as well.
Yami rolled onto his stomach, closing his eyes. He had no idea at the time of the consequences that one single kiss would bring.
To Be Continued…
Author's Notes:
Yugi's birthday: It's June 4th, in case anyone is wondering.
Character stats: Even though I'm setting this in Japan, I'm sticking with the dub sl, (Thus Yami is 5000, not 3000), and I'm using the name Yami Atemu for him. Also, this goes by anime standards, making Yami five inches taller than Yugi. I've also guessed his age to be around 24. (As a few years have passed and all.) Yugi, obviously, is seventeen. This is after the series, after the Ceremonial Battle, so yes, there will be mentions of spoilers.
I've rated this fic R for content in future chapters, including violence, language, and rape. There is no true hentai, however, so don't worry about that. I'm just doing that for my own protection from the site moderators.
Couples mentioned or involved in the fic…YamixYugi, obviously. I also make references to JoeyxMai, RyouxBakura, and TeaxMariku (light Marik). As these are just references, they shouldn't bother any anti-fans of those couples.
Alright…I think that's good for the technical notes for now. :wink:
A new fic! Yaaayyyyy…took me long enough, right? It's going to be shounen-ai and angsty and sappy and romance-y, so get used to that now, kapiesh? Mostly it's just a big angsty romance fest, and that's almost the main sl. It also might get a little crazy in a few places.Flaming sent to me on any of those details, as well as others, will go unacknowledged and the fic won't change, so don't waste your energy. This is a big risk for me, really. It's the kind of thing I didn't think I'd post.You see, this fic will mostly be made up of Yugi and Yami hugging and crying and kissing and stroking each other's hair and basically just cuddling, which is cute and very fun to write and not bad in a one-shot...but I dunno how it is to read in a chapter story. But I've posted the first chapter...and am now honour-bound to see it through till the end!
I'm going to warn you now, AND THIS WILL BE THE ONLY WARNING YOU GET, SO PAY ATTENTION, that later in this fic certain ethics of the Christian religion-as well as others-will be challenged/teased. I mean no disrespect to anyone of any religion with these, and I'm not trying to start World War III, (That was Issei's job, if you recall. xD), but it's necessary for the fic and for the realism. Either learn to deal with it, or go read another fic that softens things for you and your religion, because as a writer, I shan't be doing so, and I'm so not in the mood to deal with irate religious mouthpieces getting on my case for some type of insult I made toward their faith in a fictional story.
Thanks for putting up with me there. I just want to make it very clear. I'm aware that religion is a madly touchy subject and people have been killed over lesser issues, so I'm just protecting my life.
Send me reviews, and I hope to see you in the coming chapters!

Several local non-profit organizations will benefit from special grants as part of the Grand Opening celebration, including Angels and Sparrows Soup Kitchen, Dove House Children's Advocacy Center, SCAN, Friends of Animals, Hope House Foundation, Lake Norman Chamber of Commerce, Lake Norman Women's Magazine, Mooresville Christian Mission, Mooresville Rotary Club, Mooresville Soup Kitchen, Rolling Thunder Charities, Rotary Club of Troutman, Top of the Lake Rotary Club of Mooresville, VFW Post 2031 and YMCA of Greater Charlotte. "The Board of Welcome Home Veterans at Richard's Coffee Shop/Military Museum is honored to have Sam's Club as a supporting sponsor," said David Parkins, a member of the Welcome Home Veterans Board. "Since a great many of our Veterans are older, they will enjoy the discounts, ease of access of the new location, and the clean uncluttered shopping environment that Sam's Club offers."

Levalbuterol inhalation may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
What are the possible side effects of levalbuterol inhalation (Xopenex HFA)?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:
- bronchospasm (wheezing, chest tightness, trouble breathing), especially after starting a new canister of this medicine;
- chest pain and fast, pounding, or uneven heart beats;
- low potassium (confusion, uneven heart rate, extreme thirst, increased urination, leg discomfort, muscle weakness or limp feeling); or

Less serious side effects may include:
- headache, tremors, feeling anxious or nervous;

Read the Xopenex HFA (levalbuterol tartrate inhalation aerosol) Side Effects Center for a complete guide to possible side effects
What is the most important information I should know about levalbuterol inhalation (Xopenex HFA)?
You should not use this medication if you are allergic to levalbuterol or albuterol (Accuneb, ProAir, Proventil, Ventolin).
Before using levalbuterol, tell your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, a heart rhythm disorder, a seizure disorder, diabetes, or overactive thyroid.
Tell your doctor about all other medicines you use, especially heart or blood pressure medication, diuretics (water pills), antidepressants, or other inhaled bronchodilators.
Talk with your doctor if any of your asthma medications do not seem to work as well in treating or preventing attacks. If it seems like you need to use more of any of your medications in a 24-hour period, talk with your doctor. An increased need for medication could be an early sign of a serious asthma attack.
This medication comes with patient instructions for safe and effective use. Follow these directions carefully. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.
It is very important that you use nebulized levalbuterol properly, so that the medicine gets into the lungs. Talk to your doctor about proper nebulizer use.
Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222. An overdose of levalbuterol can be fatal.

Five-time Grand Slam champion Maria Sharapova has been banned from competitive tennis for two years by the International Tennis Federation (ITF). The ban is the result of positive tests and Sharapova's own admissions that she had used meldonium, an alleged performance-enhancing drug that was just placed on World Anti-Doping Agency's List of Prohibited Substances and Materials this year.
Here's a look at the ban, and Sharapova's options to appeal the decision.

Georgia College & State University Reviews
Student & Graduate Reviews (4)
Georgia College was a great school for someone who wants smaller, more personalized education. The campus is beautiful and there are plenty of activities for everyone to get engaged. Plus, the more involved you get - the better your overall experience.
Beautiful campus and great class sizes. I made great friendships with my instructors and maintain contact even years later.
Overall, GCSU is a great school. The campus is beautiful and there are a lot of good professors. The disability/accessibility office needed improvement when I was there.
GCSU is a great college to attend even if you are a working single parent. The program of study is a two year process which includes classroom and field-based learning experiences. The program teachings you about and the importance of child development, family, community, curriculum development, and assessments.

He's never proven to be able to live up to the huge hype surrounding him. If he wasn't Russian, there would never had been the hype, if he were Canadian, you'd hardly ever hear about him, because he has never impressed, never dominated anywhere.

1981 Lancia Beta Zagato Coupe (photo courtesy of Auctions America)
It is easy to get lost in all of the big numbers that get thrown around after an event like Monterey. With Ferrari after Ferrari pulling down multi-million dollar figures, it may seem like owning a classic car is a luxury reserved only for the elite. But as the yin to that yang, I have compiled a list of cars to watch at this weekend's Fall Auburn auction by Auctions America. This is by no means a top 10 list of most expensive cars or a list of great investments. The purpose here is to have as much fun as possible for around $5,000.

Bài hát: Headlights - Eminem
I know I let you down
And though you say the days are happy
Why is the power off, and I'm *** up?
And mom, I know he's not around
But don't you place the blame on me
As you pour yourself another drink
[Hook: Nate Ruess]
I guess we are who we are
Headlights shine in the dark night I drive on
Maybe we took this too far
[Verse 2: Eminem]
I went in headfirst
Never thinking about who what I said hurt, in what verse
My mom probably got it the worst
The brunt of it, but as stubborn as we are
Did I take it too far?
Cleaning out my closet and all them other songs
But regardless I don't hate you cause ma!
You're still beautiful to me, cause you're my ma
Though far be it for you to be calling, my house was Vietnam
Desert Storm and both of us put together can form an atomic bomb equivalent to Chemical warfare
And forever we can drag this on and on
But, agree to disagree
That gift for me up under the Christmas tree don't mean *** to me
You're kicking me out? It's 15 degrees and it's Christmas Eve (little *** just leave)
Ma, let me grab my *** coat, anything to have each other's goats
Why we always at each others throats? Especially when dad, he *** us both
We're in the same *** boat, you'd think that it'd make us close (nope)
Further away it drove us, but together headlights shining, car full of belongings
Still got a ways to go, back to grandma's house it's straight up the road
And I was the man of the house, the oldest, so my shoulders carried the weight of the load
Then Nate got taken away by the state at 8 years old, and
That's when I realized you were sick and it wasn't fixable or changable
And to this day we remained estranged and I hate it though, but
[Verse 3: Eminem]
Cause to this day we remain estranged and I hate it though
Cause you ain't even get to witness your grandbabies grow
But I'm sorry mama for Cleaning Out My Closet, at the time I was angry
Rightfully maybe so, never meant that far to take it though, cause
Now I know it's not your fault, and I'm not making jokes
That song I no longer play at shows and I cringe every time it's on the radio
And I think of Nathan being placed in a home
And all the medicine you fed us
And how I just wanted you to taste your own, but
Now the medications taken over and your mental states deteriorating slow
And I'm way too old to cry, that *** is painful though
But ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan yo
All you did, all you said, you did your best to raise us both
Foster care, that cross you bare, few may be as heavy as yours
But I love you Debbie Mathers, oh what a tangled web we have, cause
One thing I never asked was where the *** my deadbeat dad was
*** it I guess he had trouble keeping up with every address
But I'd of flipped every mattress, every rock and desert cactus
Own a collection of maps and followed my kids to the edge of the atlas
Someone ever moved them from me? That you could bet your asses
If I had to come down the chimney dressed as Santa, kidnap them
And although one has only met their grandma
Once you pulled up in our drive one night as we were leaving to get some hamburgers
Me, her and Nate, we introduced you, hugged you
And as you left I had this overwhelming sadness come over me
As we pulled off to go our separate paths, and
I saw your headlights as I looked back
And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to thank you for being my Mom and my Dad
So Mom, please accept this as a tribute I wrote this on the jet
I guess I had to get this off my chest, I hope I get the chance to lay it before I'm dead
The stewardess said to fasten my seatbelt, I guess we're crashing
So if I'm not dreaming, I hope you get this message that I will always love you from afar
Cause you're my mama...
[Verse 4: Nate Ruess]
I want a new life
One without a cause
So I'm coming home tonight
Well no matter what the cost
And if the plane goes down
Or if the crew can't wake me up
Well,Just know that I'm alright
I was not afraid to die
Even if there's songs to sing
My children will carry me
Just know that I'm alright
I was not afraid to die
Because I put my faith in my little girl
So I never say goodbye cruel world
Just know that I'm alright
I am not afraid to die
(I wanna new life)

I just don't see a place to input the IR code. I'm following TiVo's instructions and repeating the guided setup now. Maybe there is a place to input the IR code there. I have 3 TiVos (need to update my signature). But the one I'm doing this on is the first one in my signature that I upgraded to 160GB years ago. I need to update my signature because I also upgraded my TiVoHD to 1TB earlier this summer. Thanks gastof and cannonz!

Chapter 15: ElodieMature
So, when I got home, I hid the fire knife in my double jumper pocket. Dinner was on the table, steaming and smelling delicious but everyone was in the lounge room.
"My darling, Elodie; how have you held up while we've been away?" My platinum blonde fake mother's hair shone in the light and her expression held nothing but concern. I shot Darren a look. He must have told her that I was seeing things.
My fake mother was quite young for a mother of three, only about 38 years old. My fake father's hairline was lined with sweat, and both of my brothers sat solemnly next to him.
"What's the occasion?" I asked nervously. I didn't know whether Caspar was watching or not but if he thought I was going to slaughter the only family I had ever known, he was dead wrong.
"Honey, are you alright? Are you feeling ok?" My fake mother asked me. I shot Darren another look since he didn't seem to appreciate the first one. He shrugged.
"I'm fine, but I have some kinda big news to tell you." I swallowed. "Good thing you're all sitting down."
My fake father watched me closely. I sighed.
"Just spit it out, Elodie. It's not like you're pregnant or something…." Michael trailed off. His eyes narrowed. My fake mother stood up and grabbed my shoulders. She shook them hard.
"You're not pregnant are you?" She yelled. I shook my head.
"No, it's nothing like that, calm down….mum." I had a hard time spitting out the word mum, but she didn't seem to notice. She sat back down, calmly. "I… found something out. It was hard to believe but I was shown pictorial evidence. It's about my real parents."
My fake mother broke down into tears and I looked down at her. My fake father put his arms around her. My brothers both looked down.
My jaw dropped.
"You all knew?" I screeched. My fake mother reached out but I let her arms fall. "Why didn't you tell me? You could have at least told me that I was adopted."
My father shook his head, remorseless. I was confused.
"We weren't permitted to tell you. We all knew because when you were given to us, a man by the name of Caspar came and handed you over with teary eyes. He said he was going to wipe our memories but he never got around to it before he disappeared." Dad said. I didn't know whether that piece of information made me hate Caspar more or feel a little bit of respect for my now confirmed biological father. I nodded slowly and put my hand inside my jumper pocket to where the knife was. I was not ready to use it on my 'family' even if they were fake.
"Just tell me, did you love me? Did you ever love me like a daughter… like a sister?" I asked. Michael was the one to speak up.
"Mum and dad always loved you like you were their own. Darren always loved you like a sister….but…" He trailed. I looked at him questioningly. He sighed, looked at Darren and continued, "I never could get over the fact that you weren't actually a part of this family- Ow!" He squealed when their mother hit him. A fleeting smile passed over my face.
"Shut up, she was always a part of this family you drama queen." Their mother hissed.
"I have to leave. I was sent here to say bye and then never return and I guess, Michael, if you felt that way, it won't be that hard to let me go." I said. Michael looked down.
"Honey…" Their mother said to me. I shook my head.
"Let's start over. You don't know me, but I'm Elodie, I have a father and a brother and apparently my biological mother died soon after I was born. I thank you for letting me live with you for all these years." I whispered. They all stood up because they knew I was right and that this day was going to come even though they never thought to tell me anything. I choked on tears which never came. It was weird because I never usually cried- lies, lies, I cry a lot. I'm a very sensitive person…
My fake mother held her hand out.
"Hi, I'm Diana, I'm an actress. It's…nice to meet you." She said, obviously upset. My father stood up and smiled at me, tears in his eyes.
"I knew this day would come- I'm Vic. I'm a singer." I shook his hand warmly.
Michael stuck his hand out and frowned at me.
"I'm sorry, Elodie," I took his hand and shook my head.
"No problem,"
"I'm Michael by the way." He said. I nodded. Darren was the last to take a stand. When he stuck a hand out, and I took it, he pulled me in for a brotherly hug instead. I realised that although they had lied to me all these years, I was raised with them and I was going to miss them more than life.
"God dammit, Elodie, you've been the best sister in the world- related to me or not- I love you so much, and I'm never not going to call you my sister. To me, you'll always be my sister and even if you leave, I will never forget you." He let go of me and smiled sadly. "It doesn't matter what anyone says. You'll always have family here." He put a hand over his heart. "You'll always have family here."
Trust Darren for making this such a heartfelt event. I exhaled and raised my eyebrows.
"Well, I've got to go pack and then I'll be off and out of Michael's hair- what little hair he does have.... Forever."
I was packed and off in less than ten minutes. No one resisted and so the knife stayed safe in my pocket. It was only when I was out of the house and met by Stone that I took it out.
Stone was wearing a button up jacket with a collar. He was wearing jeans and those same pair of Converse that I'd seen him wearing elsewhere. His green eyes sparkled with delight when he saw the knife.
"Ah, you were entrusted with a blade of let's-go-have-some-fun!" He said enthusiastically. His auburn-brown hair, so closely matching with mine, was tossed about as Stone jumped about. He walked ahead of me, super happy. I laughed. I was happy to see him so happy. It was as if we never got attacked by Enders. He seemed to live each day like it was his last. But then, as a Time Jumper- you never knew which day could be your last.
"Why is it a blade of fun?" I laughed as I followed him.
"Because you can kill people with it," Stone said, "Duh,"
He was such a… such a dude.
"Stone, why do they send you to live with another family and then break your heart while you find out that you don't actually belong with them at all?" Stone stopped short ahead of me.
"Elodie…. They don't do this to everyone. They didn't do it to me, to any of the other Time Jumpers or the Time Enders even. The only people they do that to, is to people they believe could one day rule us. Elodie… you're destined to become our leader, and me to protect you."
"What are you saying?" I asked. Stone pulled on his hair. "Well, sorry if I don't know, I don't exactly get told much around here."
"I'm saying all of that was to protect you for as long as we could. To protect you from a truth we've been trying to hide from you. There's going to be a battle Elodie. A real big one. You're the key to saving everyone on this god forsaken planet."

You walk into a room only to realize you can't remember why. You forget an appointment. Or maybe you're finding yourself distracted and unable to focus when it's never been a problem before.
They're called "senior moments" – and while you've been told you just have to accept them as a part of getting older, we're going to let you in on a little secret: nothing you've been taught about them is true.
That's right, nothing. Because despite what you've been told, an aging brain doesn't have to lead to forgetfulness, brain fog or confusion.
That's not to say your brain won't age – of course it will! But aging doesn't have to be mentally debilitating either.
In fact there's a healthy habit you can start TODAY that could be the key to staying sharp and focused for all of your TOMORROW'S.
We'll have more on that habit in just a moment, but first let's take a look at what's really behind those so-called senior moments.
Feeling forgetful? This could be the REAL reason why
According to studies structural changes happen in every brain including yours. And those changes begin far earlier than we used to think, sometimes as early as your late 20s or early 30s.
Your brain itself gets smaller, but that's not all. The pathways that carry messages throughout your brain change, too. There's less to work with and the pathways aren't as smooth as they once were. It adds up to frustrating lapses that can feel like they showed up all of a sudden, but have really been building up for years.
Since we can't simply stop our brains from aging it's no wonder so many of us find it easy to believe we have to surrender to mushy thinking and embarrassing memory lapses as we get older. Except it turns out that these changes are actually far from the only things that could be affecting your memory, and focus. And they may not have a thing to do with your troubling "senior moments."
There are other factors at work, too. Potential memory muggers such as:
- inflammation
- oxidative stress and free radical damage
- poor circulation
- holes in your nutrition
- blood pressure fluctuations
- changes in blood sugar levels
- lifestyle
- mood
Any one of these factors on their own could be enough to make your brain feel like it's as slow as molasses in January. But together they're almost sure to mess with your memory.
But what if there was one little change you could make… a simple daily habit that would make protecting, and even restoring, your brainpower easier than ever before?
Imagine fewer senior moments… better focus… sharper short-term memory. No more struggling to remember which names go with familiar faces. Or forgetting that last thing you needed from the store.
Because it's possible. Even with the natural changes that happen in your aging brain. Even with the external influences that are working together to wear you down. You just need a little help.
CogniSense CAN boost memory in just 60 minutes!
We've got good news. That help is finally available in one of the most comprehensive brain health supplements we've come across to date.
CogniSense, from our friends and affiliates at Best Health Nutritionals, takes on the factors that are making your brain burp head on. It addresses all the aspects of brain health that you can control, even many of the ones you once thought were inevitable.
And it doesn't take weeks or even days to start reaping the benefits of CogniSense. Try one hour.
That's right, Congisense can boost memory in just 60 minutes flat!
How does it work so fast? Because that's what it was designed to do.
It contains a potent herb called bacopa that's been around for centuries. And studies show that taking the right amount of bacopa can noticeably improve memory in an hour – as well as spur continued improvements in learning, mental calculations and thinking abilities when taken over time.
Incredible as it seems it's true, and it's a major reason why we're so impressed with CogniSense. It works and it works fast.
Powerful brain support in a single capsule
But the benefits don't end there, because CogniSense doesn't simply take on just one or two causes of "senior moments." Instead this powerful supplement focuses on many of the major causes of those mental missteps you dread.
CogniSense works with your own brain's chemistry to help protect your…
- attention span
- concentration
- coordination
- memory
And remember, CogniSense works fast. You can begin to improve your memory in one dose, and in just about an hour. Can you imagine the results you'll see after a week? Or a month?
- "Locking in" your short-term memory
- Avoiding embarrassing holes in your long-term memory
- No more worrying about "brain fog"
- And beginning to see results in less time than it takes to watch a movie
So the only question left is, are you ready to start the one simple daily habit that boosts your memory in just 60 minutes? If so, click here to learn more about CogniSense.

Adding and managing contacts
The iPad allows you to save contact information for the people you know using the Contacts app. You can use saved contact information to quickly place a FaceTime call, send an email, and more. The iPad allows you to create as many contacts as you need, so you'll always have important contact information with you.
To add a contact:
- Tap the Contacts icon on the Home Screen.
- The contacts list will appear. Tap the + button.
- Enter the desired contact information. At the very least, you should enter a first and last name, as well as an email address. However, you can also enter other information, like a phone number, street address, birthday, and more.
- When you're finished, tap Done.
Editing a contact
To edit information for an existing contact, select the Contact, then tap Edit.
When you want to add a Phone number, tapping: Add Phone will bring up the Home phone number. If you want to add different types of numbers like a work, fax, mobile phone number, tap Home.
To add additional phone numbers, tap: Add Phone. Tap Done when you're finished.
Add / Edit a Contact from an Email Message
If you tap the Sender in an email message, you can add that sender as a New Contact or add the Sender's details to an existing Contact.
Add a photo to the Contact
In a Contact, tap, Add Photo. you can choose to either take a photo with the Camera or choose an existing photo from the Camera Roll.
Managing Contacts with iCloud
If you want to add or edit several contacts at the same time, you might find it easier to use a computer with a normal keyboard. To do this, simply navigate to www.iCloud.com, click Contacts, then add or edit your contacts as needed. When you're done, the information will be automatically synced to your iPad.
Every time you make a change to your Contacts app on the iPad, those changes will be automatically synced to your iCloud account and pushed down to any other device running iCloud. You will always be up to date. If you need to access your contacts and you don't have your iPad or iPhone handy, you can always log on to your iCloud account to get access. All you need is a computer connected to the internet.
Navigating your Contacts
If you have a lot of different people saved to your contacts list, it can be difficult to find a contact quickly. Fortunately, there are two easy ways to navigate your contacts.
Search for a Contact
You can quickly search all of your contacts by using the Search bar at the top of the contacts list. Just tap the Search bar and type. Any contacts matching your search will appear.
Browse for a Contact
You can quickly browse through your contacts list by letter. Just tap the desired letter to the right of the contacts list. You can also drag your finger up or down the letters to quickly scroll through your contacts.
Your Info Card
If you'd like Siri to access your personal contact information, you'll need to set the My Info card. This will allow Siri to answer more complex requests, such as "Give me directions home" or "Remind me about my meeting when I get to work." If you have entered your birthday into your profile along with your contact details, then your iPad will wish you a Happy Birthday when the day arrives.
** Before you can set the My Info card, you'll need to create a contact with your own name and information.
- Tap the Settings icon on the Home Screen.
- Scroll down and tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars in the left pane.
- Scroll down and tap My Info under Contacts.
4. Your contacts list will appear. Locate and select your name.
5. The My Info card will now be set with your information.
Add Relationship Labels
If you'd like Siri to understand your relationships to different contacts (for example, that Frank is your brother and that Susan is your mother), you can add relationship labels. This allows Siri to respond to more personal requests, such as "Call my brother" or "Send mum a text message."
You can set a relationship label for a contact manually. When viewing the contact, tap Edit, then scroll down and select Add related name. Tap the default relationship label - Manager - and you can select Spouse or Assistant. Then Click Done to save the information.
Using Google contacts on your iPad
If you're using an Android device then your Contacts, Calendar and mail will likely be with Google - GMAIL, Google Calendar and Google Contacts. However, Apple's iPad Calendar and Contacts apps do not talk to Google's apps. There is a way to use your Google Calendar and Contacts information on your iPad and keep that information synchronised.

Undoing Testing Methods in Agile Projects
The period 2002-2004 was one of enormous progress in figuring out how testing fits in on agile projects. Test-driven design is more about designing and writing the code than about finding bugs. New testing tools such as xUnit and FIT came out and received a lot of use by early adopters. The hopeful notion that customers would write acceptance tests to find bugs was expanded, challenged, and deepened. With all that progress, it's hard to be dissatisfied with these methods in agile projects. But past ways of thinking are holding us back. To make further progress, we have to split our notion of testing into two parts: the task of after-the-fact product critique, and a role that has nothing at all to do with bugs and, really, little to do with the word "testing." Brian Marick, a founding member of the Agile Alliance, explains what that role presents and some ideas on how to fill it.
- The evolving role of testing in agile development projects
- Finding bugs is not enough to deliver the value customers need in agile projects
- A new view for agile development processes

Prior to the events of the series, Gauron was already a vicious mercenary. He was once shot in the head by Sousuke in the deserts of Helmajistan, yet survived thanks to a titanium plate protecting his skull. Since this incident, Gauron has been taking on various jobs with different terrorist groups and corrupt political domains. He developed a fixation with Sousuke, relishing the possibility that the two would meet again one day and settle their score.
Full Metal Panic!
Five years following his first encounter with Sousuke, Gauron was hired by a corrupt Soviet official and hatched a daring plot to hijack a plane carrying hundreds of Japanese school students. The purpose for this hijacking was to obtain Kaname Chidori, a girl suspected of being a "Whispered": individuals that contain intimate knowledge of Black Technology within their minds. Gauron captured Kaname and had her subjected to experimentation, but she was rescued by Sousuke. After battling against Sousuke with an Arm Slave equipped with a Lambda Driver, Gauron was defeated and supposedly perished.
Gauron survived his encounter with Sousuke in the Soviet Union and took on another job in Helmajistan, this time transporting a nuclear warhead for an unknown terrorist group. Mithril assembled a group of elite mercenaries, Sousuke among them, to find Gauron and kill him before he reached his destination. However, Gauron was aided by Zaid, a former comrade of Sousuke's, who pilotted a highly sophisticated Arm Slave mecha. While Sousuke was able to defeat Zaid and secure the nuke, all of his teammates were killed and Gauron escaped.
Not long after the Helmajistan debacle, Gauron appeared again commanding a group of extremists that were threatening to destroy a storehouse packed with chemical weapons. Mithril was able to defeat the terrorists and Gauron was captured, and he and his new AS mecha Venom were taken aboard the Tuatha de Danaan, Mithril's state-of-the-art submarine. However, Gauron had planned on being caught and had agents working aboard the de Danaan who set him free. Together, they commandeered the ship and Gauron used the invasive Toy Box program to take control of the ship's AI, Dana.
With the crew of the Tuatha de Danaan held captive and the world's most powerful sub at his command, Gauron was prepared to start a war between Mithril and the United States. However, the maniacal warlord changed his mind after his associates were killed and he thought it would be fun to take the world record for "most expensive suicide", commanding Dana to take the ship as deep as possible so it would be crushed by the tremendous water pressure. Captain Tessa Testarossa, who was a Whispered, was able to disrupt Gauron's scheme by mentally communicating with Kaname, who was on board the de Danaan at the time. Kaname, with Tessa's guidance, took control of the de Danaan by interfacing with the TAROS device hidden within the centre of the ship.
Kaname restored control of Dana to Tessa who commanded her to surface. Gauron was distracted by Tessa's interference and was wounded in the shoulder when Sousuke suddenly forced his way into the command centre and shot at him. Gauron was able to escape and made his way to the ship's hangar where his Venom mech awaited him. Sousuke pursued him and engaged him in his Arbalest. The two mechs could not use their Lambda Drivers in such an enclosed space and so relied on their mono-filament blades.
After the de Danaan surfaced, the hatch for the flight deck opened. Gauron had Sousuke pinned down as an elevator took them outside, the Venom set to self-destruct. Gauron intended to die and take Sousuke with him, but once on the flight deck, after Gauron said " I love you, Kashim" to Sousuke, the AS launch pad was activated and Gauron was catapulted off of the ship. The Venom exploded and Gauron appeared to have perished.
Full Metal Panic!: The Second Raid
Despite the seemingly inescapable circumstances of his defeat, Gauron actually survived his battle aboard the Tuatha de Danaan. The Lambda Driver aboard his Venom AS was capable of shielding him from the self-destruct and he was left adrift and crippled. He was rescued by two former pupils of his, the sisters Xia Yu Fan and Xia Yu Lan. The sisters cared deeply for their "sensei" and sheltered him in Hong Kong.
As his final act of revenge against Sousuke, Gauron ordered the twins to go after Kaname Chidori, using the resources of the terrorist group Amalgam that they also work for. While Sousuke and Mithril are operating against Amalgam forces in Hong Kong, Gauron arranges for Sousuke to meet with him one last time, having Xia Yu Fan plant messages intended for Sousuke all over the city. Sousuke eventually arrives and finds Gauron on his death bed.
Gauron spends his final moments ruthlessly taunting Sousuke, claiming he is weak for succumbing to human emotions during the time he spent protecting Kaname in Japan. He drives Sousuke over the edge as he gloats over Kaname's murder (though this is merely a lie) and the enraged Sousuke finally puts an end to Gauron by repeatedly shooting the crippled psychopath who dies with a maniacal smile on his face.
Gauron also had a bomb planted under his bed set to go off when his heart stopped, his final attempt to kill Sousuke. Sousuke noticed the bomb just in time and leapt out of the window as it went off.
Gauron is a violent sociopath completely devoid of compassion. He cares about nothing and no one, except possibly Sousuke, though that is more of a psychotic obsession. Gauron is a man who doesn't like being told what to do by anyone. He works as a freelance mercenary and is uninterested in the goals and ideologies of the groups or individuals who employ him, though he doesn't seem to care much about profit either. Near the end of the series, Gauron's psychopathic behaviour reaches a head when he decides to kill himself and the entire crew of the Tuatha de Danaan by taking the ship to such depths that it will be crushed by the pressure. His only reason for doing this seems to be merely his own twisted amusement.
Gauron is a brilliant tactician and soldier. He is proficient with a number of firearms, martial arts, and is capable of pilotting an Arm Slave robot. He can even use the Lambda Driver, a piece of Black Technology that can change human thought into physical force.

November 1992
BeschreibungAristotle's Poetics is one of the most powerful, perceptive and influential works of criticism in Western literary history. A penetrating, near-contemporary account of Greek tragedy, it demonstrates how the elements of plot, character and spectacle combine to produce 'pity and fear' - and why we derive pleasure from this apparently painful process. It introduces the crucial concepts of mimesis ('imitation'), hamartia ('error') and katharsis, which have informed serious thinking about drama ever since. It examines the mythological heroes, idealized yet true to life, whom Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides brought on to the stage. And it explains how the most effective plays rely on complication and resolution, recognitions and reversals. Essential reading for all students of Greek literature and of the many Renaissance and post-Renaissance writers who consciously adopted Aristotle as a model, the Poetics is equally stimulating for anyone interested in theatre today.

"pita the Great" - Tuna Salad
Recipe by J. Ko
I found this recipe in the "Looney Spoons" cookbook and it has become a family favourite. There are a few more ingredients than your standard tuna salad but it is well worth the extra time. An equivalent amount of chopped, cooked chicken breast may be substituted for the tuna with equally delicious results. My 9 yo DD, especially, loves these, so I send the components in her school lunch and she assembles it when she's ready to eat. I hope you enjoy!
Top Review by French Tart
Peter the Great will be pleased to have such a tasty recipe named after him, albeit tongue in cheek!! I halved this recipe just for moi today; the remaining tuna salad is in the fridge for my lunch tomorrow. I used EVERY single ingredient except for the alfalfa sprouts, and the only other change I made was to dice the cucumber and mix it through the tuna salad mixture. A tasty and VERY filling sandwich and one that I am looking forward to eating again tomorrow! Merci Jenn! Made for PAC Spring 2009 - Tarty.XX :-)

Super Game Black Mesa (PC) There Spiele TestSuper Game Black Mesa (PC) There Spiele Test
Designed by fans Black Mesa is a remake of Valve's classic shooter Half-Life from 1998. On the project about eight years in the making long, so serious doubts arose about whether it would ever finish.
Finally, since the beginning of the development some changes.
Over time, the original objective of the project was becoming increasingly difficult. First, they wanted to produce a decent Half-Life remake - not as unsatisfactory as Valve itself - (! There should ever be completed), but over the years it became increasingly unlikely that the finished game so modern looks, how it initially hoped . The time step is so rapid that the project simply could not keep pace.
So let me notice this right away: Black Mesa does not look like a modern video game. The limitations of the Source engine and the fact that the hobby developers worked with foreign code, led to the fact that the density of objects and the character animation looks like something that would be 2007 had been modern, but not as something that we today - used - even by mods is.
This does not mean that the game is ugly. It pleases the eye with wonderful light and ambient effects and the underlying original draft Valve see mostly still as fresh as when Half-Life was first published. But over long distances, you will feel like you are playing a game from 2007.
The only exceptions are the sections that you remember that you play a game that actually comes from the year 1998. Those who simply want to experience only old glorious moments once again could alter the unlikely, but younger players who want to know is why just made this game so much fanfare, should know that the first-person shooter Genre has not passed in error by several set pieces of the game. You need health packs (health packs) to survive, not five seconds into safe cover. That makes it perhaps a bit more difficult, but it is unfortunately also associated with endless quicksaves. Platforming, dominated by the combination of squatting / Jumping, still plays a role - and it's still terrible.
But you know what? None of that really matters. After Half-Life, like its sequel, due to its features so great, but because it was a pioneer in first-person perspective and can not be reduced to a disembodied floating weapon. And Black Mesa retains this feeling not only, but surpasses even in this respect the original is still a lot, because in this area the really valuable improvements have been made.
This is not just a remake. The Black Mesa team, led by Carlos "cman2k" Montero has taken the trouble to fix a number of minor deficiencies and add new content, and so to ensure that the players more than can ever indulge in the game since Black Mesa now really looks like a plant, in which many people work, and not like an empty, cavernous shooting.
That means more chatter and random events in the background. More stuff lying around. Has a gun, oh dear, front and rear sights. Many areas were not so subtle changes to increase it, or simply to let just impressive.
And that's brave! There are other developers who make the effort to port old games, and would never dare, the original make even the smallest changes. In a game like Half-Life, one of the greatest games of all time, they would not even dream of thinking. But these people dared, so it is all the better that the result turned out so well. Good for you!
Especially when the end they did a good job. If you have not played Half-Life is mentioned here: The end is really bad. I do not mean this in relation to the rest of the game, I think that it is really fucking bad. Terrifying first-person platforming combined with a strange twist (which will match with the rest of the series not quite) makes the end of the worst by far the moment of Half-Life.
Luckily for all first-time players (and all other), the end is gone. You do not play. The team has decided to give up on the latest release of the mod on it. It is not even a patch after or later update, but released as a stand-alone title, with the makers promise that there will be significant changes. It's not often that you praise a game that estwas was omitted, but here it is the case, because it was a brave decision - and the right. The Half-Life game experience becomes firmer and more consistent.
It's a little awkward to play after all this time Black Mesa. I was already resigned to never play this mod to. To make a judgment is not easy, since it is on the one hand is a fan-made mod, on the other hand is a remake of one of the best PC games of all time.
Even AAA title were published, which were taken less closely scrutinized than this mod, which is perhaps one reason that it took so long, until it was finally released.
But since it has been released, must be noted that the Black Mesa team really worked hard and made a masterpiece hath made. Half-Life has been modernized just enough so that it is bearable for contemporary tastes, but not so much that it moves away from the original vision. Given the number of employees, the duration of the project and the importance of the original Black Mesa is a great achievement.
Almost as great as the fact that the game is free.
