New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - September 26, 1989, New Braunfels, Texas 'Alarming trend' of drug use with students WASHINGTON (AP) — Some sixth-graders say they use cocaine as often as every week, according to a survey released today that shows an "alarming trend" of drug use among junior high school students.

"I've got friends on both sides of this. Whatever decision I make is going to make half of them unhappy," said Councilmember Bill Arnold before the Council's vote which approved the tennis courts site. Both sides were presented when members of the Noon Lions Club, Tennis Association and Parks and Recreation Advisory Board packed the New Braunfels Utilities meeting room, where City Council conducts its meetings, to voice opinions on placing tennis courts in Prince Sol ms Park. The Noon Lions Club approved a resolution last week asking City Council not to take the Advisory Board's recommendation of using Prince Solms Park. Since 1970, when the club donated $15,000 to help purchase the Pearce Property — now Prince Solms park, almost $39,000 from the organization has been spent to beautify the park and keep it as green space, said Lions Club member Bill Kolodzie. "I ask that council consider the facts and help keep Prince Solms Park a place of beauty, a place of serenity," he said. However, other members of the Noon Lions Club were for the Prince Solms Location. "Right now, what is that property being used for? A giant parking lot for one of the entrances to the Tube Chute," said Bill Mabry, a Lions Club member. "Building the tennis courts on this property is an opportunity ... to give back to the citizens of this community." Funding to build the proposed courts is made possible by a $35,000 grant from HEB Foods. The Tennis Association will add $22,000 cash and City of New Braunfels will contribute $23,000 cash and land for the project. The only requirement for HEB's dona tion of die money is that the courts be named the HEB Tennis Center. HEB withdrew its grant portion in 1984 when the city applied for the grant but the parties couldn't agree on a site for the courts. The city re-applied for the grant in 1988. "As a civic and a service club of this community, we believe in our park system. We have contributed money, time and just about anything the park department has asked us Sea TENNIS, Page 2 Findings show cause of death Preliminary autopsy findings indicate a 37-year-old Houston man who was found at a local motel Saturday died from alcohol intoxication, say New Braunfels police. Joe E. Ayers, 37, a former resident of New Braunfels, was found in a room at the Shaefer Motel around noon when maids went in to clean the room, said Lt. Felix Roque. He was found lying across the bed in the room. Authorities will wait for toxicology test results to verify that Mr. Ayers died of alcohol intoxication, said police spokesman Martin Mayer. "There was no evidence of any foul play," Roque said. "We're doing an investigation to find out what happened." The motel manager reported Mr. Ayers checked into the motel, located on Interstate 35, after 8 p.m. Friday, Roque said. The Travis County medical examiner performed the autopsy Sunday.

Search yields illegal drugs A New Braunfels man remains in 0 the Comal County jail today pending registration after he was arrested Monday and charged with possession of a controlled substance. New Braunfels police report. Javier Ortiz, 27, of the 1400 block of Stonewall Street, was arrested by police at his residence around 4:30 p.m., said police spokesman Martin Mayer. Less than 2 grams of what is believed to be methamphetamines was confiscated, he said. Based upon information from a reliable source, police received a search warrant from Precinct I Justice of the Peace Harold Krueger, Mayer said.

The 1989 Comal County Fair starts tomorrow with the arrival of many exhibits at the fairground during the day, followed by Family Night at the Carnival beginning at 6 p.m., and Night in Old New Braunfels at Comal Corral from 7 to 8:30 p.m. The 1989 Fair Queen and her Court will be introduced and other entertainment is scheduled. Wednesday night's dance will be to the music of the San Antonio Combo (Photo by Deryl Clark) A man driving down Seguin Avenue wearing a gorilla mask was stopped by New Braunfels police Monday and later charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. Clayton Charles Franke, 24, of Schertz, remains in the Comal County jail in lieu of $10,000 bond. "We had a report he had stolen a vehicle out of Victoria," said police spokesman Martin Mayer. "An over-the-air call from Universal City said that somebody was attempting a burglary and he was wearing a gorilla mask." A New Braunfels police officer later noticed a man driving down Seguin Avenue wearing a gorilla mask, he said. He followed the vehicle and eventually stopped it. At the time Franke was arrested, he was driving a different stolen vehicle than the one Victoria authorities were looking for, Mayer said. CISD supports aquifer lawsuit See COUNCIL, Page 2 The Comal Independent School District board of trustees Monday became one of several local entities announcing its support for the Guadalupe-Bianco River Authority's lawsuit seeking adjudication of pumping rights from the Edwards Aquifer. CISD trustees approved a resolution declaring their support for GBR A's lawsuit filed in Hays County District Court. The suit seeks a declaratory judgment naming the Edwards Aquifer an underground river, therefore making it subject to regulation by the Texas Water Commission. GBRA claims it filed the lawsuit in an effort to save the Comal and San Marcos springs and the endangered species which rely on the springs for habitat. Currently, the San Marcos and blind salamanders, the San Marcos gambusia, the fountain darter and Texas wild rice are threatened by the springs' diminishing flows which are being attributed to unregulated pumping. The lawsuit was moved up to U.S. District Judge James R. Nowlin's court in August because several large federal installations have been listed as parties to the lawsuit. When one of the parties to a lawsuit is an agency of the U.S. government, the lawsuit must be heard in a federal court. CISD's resolution reads, "Whereas the loss of the Comal Springs and Comal River could have a significant effect on the taxbase of Comal Independent School District ... Now, therefore be it hereby resolved by the Comal Independent School District: That the Comal Independent School Distnct hereby supports curent legal efforts to regulate and control the use of water from the Edwards Aquifer so as to ensure an adequate discharge of water from the Edwards Aquifer at Comal Springs to retain the benefits histroicaly associated with the springs..." President Carter Casteel stated no taxpayer's money would be devoted to GBRA and the lawsuit. Trustees tighten up career ladder rules Thanks to donations from many area residents and businesses, including the four who have paid for entire trees' worth of lights, the Light Up the Plaza campaign has met the immediate expenses of updating the electrical equipment and adding 1,500 feet of new lights to the decorations on Main Plaza. However, reserve funds still are required for bulb replacement and donations must be in by this Saturday for lights to be installed by Nov. 29, when they will be turned on. Donations may be sent to: Light Up the Plaza, Downtown Association, P.O. Box 310326, New Braunfels, Texas 78131-0326.... The Book Review Club will meet Wednesday morning at the SM STAMMTISCH, Pag* 2 Teachers in Comal Independent School District face stricter career ladder criteria thanks to the board of trustees and a new state law. The CISD board of trustees Monday approved the strictest career ladder criteria recommended by Personnel Director Dr. Aden Tieken based on feedback from the Texas Association of School Boards. Tieken said stricter criteria can be lowered if additional funding becomes available from the state through the average daily attendance or from the local district. Criteria cannot be made stricter after Sept. 30, he said. HB 2566, approved by the 71st Legislature, included several changes to the career ladder criteria. One of the major changes was that any stricter criteria would have to be done by Sept. 30 of each school year. Another change was the move to current year appraisal scores rather than previous year scores to determine entry and maintenance of career ladder levels. According to criteria approved by the board, a teacher must have a perfect performance appraisal rating of 184 in the immediately preceding year to remain at Level III. To remain at Level II, a teacher must have maintained a performance appraisal in the "exceeds expectations" category in the preceding year. Entry into Level III is contingent upon a perfect performance rating of 184 in the immediately preceding year and performance appraisals in the "clearly outstanding" category in the other two preceding years. To enter into Level ll, a teacher must have a performance appraisal rating of 184 in the current year aud a performance appraisal in the "exceeds Sm CAREER. Pag* 2 Central banks intervene to drive down dollar value WASHINGTON (AP) — Japanese and West German central banks today intervened in currency markets for the second consecutive day, driving down the value of the dollar in an effort to reduce the U.S. trade deficit. The intervention followed broader action on Monday when the United States, Great Britain, Canada and France joined the Bank of Japan and West German Bundesbank in concerted dollar selling. The actions are in line with a weekend statement by the Group of Seven industrial countries — the United States, Japan, West Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy and Canada — expressing displeasure with the dollar's strength and fear that its rise in recent months could blunt improvement in the U.S. trade deficit. A strong dollar hurts the trade gap by making U.S. goods more expensive on foreign markets, while lowering the price of imports to American consumers. In Tokyo, where trading aids before Europe's business day begins, the dollar today fell 0.15 yen to a closing 142.80 Japanese yen. It was quoted at die same level later in London. The U.S. currency was worth 1.9035 West German marks in early trading. On Friday, before the G-7 meeting, the dollar bought 146 yen and 1.95 marks. Meanwhile, the world's financial officials prepared for meetings today of the 152-nation International Monetary Fund and its sister lending organization, the World Bank. Delegates to the meeting are discussing a range of topics from the deterioration of the environment in developing countries, the Third World's crushing $1.3 trillion debt burden, and the movement of Poland and Hungry from communism to free-market economies Michel Camdessus, managing director of the IMF, is pushing for a doubling of the fund's resources from the current $120 billion, but is running into resistance from the Great Britain, Saudi Arabia and the United States, which as veto power over the matter Economists said the dollar's decline was sparked less by the intervention and more by live fear that the central banks would follow up with changes in interest rates.

Argent, the property company that came to the market in June with a pounds 140m price-tag, has agreed terms with BT to occupy a planned 120,000 sq ft (11,148 sq metre) office building at its Brindleyplace development in Birmingham.
The letting is the first at the 17- acre (6.87 ha) site, which Argent acquired from the receivers to Godfrey Bradman's collapsed developer Rosehaugh.
At an initial annual rent of pounds 1.89m, the property will give Argent an 8 per cent yield on its estimated pounds 22m development cost. It is expected to be valued at pounds 26m.
Interest in the Brindleyplace scheme is seen as an indication of the shortage of modern office space in Birmingham, where it is estimated there is less than 100,000 square feet of new facilities.
Argent recently announced British Airways Pension Trustees funding for another of the nine proposed office buildings at Brindleyplace.
Meanwhile, Yorkshire Water and Evans of Leeds are teaming up with Land Securities, the UK's largest property company, to build a pounds 100m, 600,000 sq ft shopping centre on the edge of Leeds. The project gained planning approval in 1991 before a Department of the Environment decision to clamp down on out-of-town shopping.Reuse content

Grace-energized Minds: Adopted, Redeemed, and Sanctified (18 of 23) by John Barnett

Titus 2:5
Communion is when we gather to honor our Lord's command, "This do in remembrance of Me" (1 Cor. 11:24–25). The word translated "remembrance" means much more than "do this in memory of". The word carries the idea of our present participation in a past event.
1 Corinthians 11:24-25 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me."25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me." NKJV
This Supper reminds us of the unity of Christ's church. He says that we are "one loaf" (1 Cor. 10:17). Tonight when we eat eat from this supper we do so with every other believer on earth. We celebrate as parts of one loaf. Parts of that loaf are here in Tulsa, others scattered across the other 49 countries--and even more scattered around the world. We are one with them as represented by that one loaf.
1 Corinthians 10:17 For we, though many, are one bread (loaf NIV) and one body; for we all partake of that one bread (loaf NIV). NKJV
It is "The Lord's Supper" (I Cor. 11:20), and we must never forget it is His Supper for all of His body. This celebration is not the exclusive property of any one Christian denomination, local church, or group. Each time we share in the Supper, we are identifying with all true believers everywhere. And that is why we are always to be reminded of our obligation to "keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace" (Eph. 4:3).
"For the Hebrew to remember, meant much more than simply to bring something to mind, merely to recall that it happened. To truly remember is to go back in one's mind and recapture as much of the reality and significance of an event or experience as one possibly can. To remember Jesus C ...

Telecharge Resource stole my personal info from another online site, then sent an email to me stating I had signed up for their "online storage service". The email cont with directions on setting up this service. It also stated a $12/mo charge would appear on my phone bill.
This email was in my spam file. Had I not looked there, I would not have known about this rip off. It took two calls to the number listed to get the "service" disconnected. The rep, named Jay, badge #455, would not tell me how they got my information.

Its one thing to see a kid have a modicum of success playing peers in a prospects game. When you watch what the player is actually doing you have to ask how much of that will be able to transfer to the NHL

Lol pretty arrogant statement . You're trying portray yourself as some scout expert , Does not surprise me though how many hats you wear claiming to be a expert from city planning to arena construction to scouting cfl as well as all Nhl players , and what is truly impressive is you aced all these professions while spending 18 hrs a day on the net arguing with anyone who will take your bait.

Clinical Translational Science
This specialization in the Master of Public Health degree is intended for clinicians who would like additional training in the methods most applicable for research in applied clinical settings. It draws on the tools of biostatistics and epidemiology along with such important considerations as law and ethics.
A combination of classes, seminars, and mentored individual study helps students develop the ability to function as independent investigators.
Recommended Preparation
The curriculum in clinical translational science draws heavily on epidemiology and biostatistics, so students should be prepared for the quantitative demands of those fields. In addition, because of the nature of the work, the specialization in clinical translational science is limited to persons who have a clinically-related doctorate (e.g., MD, DO, DDS, DVM, PharmD) or who are in a combined degree program for that degree along with the MPH.
For information regarding application materials, test scores and codes, and decision timelines see our frequently asked questions page.

Winemaker Notes
Ruby red with flashes of orange. This wine has a fine, penetrating bouquet. The taste has layers of damson, black cherry and licorice abound in this smooth and supple wine.
Nero d'Avola demonstrates a notable capacity for aging and is a splendid match with rich, flavorful pasta dishes, grilled red meats and hard, spicy cheeses.

The perfect Mediterranean climate and terroir of Sicily are ideally suited for making wine. Of course, the best winemaking requires more than natural gifts. Enter Settesoli, one of Europe's largest and most respected wineries.

I expect that most readers who are the least bit attuned to popular movies will have seen and can remember the movie Independence Day starring Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum and Bill Pullman. For the rest of you, let me assure you that Independence Day wasn't the type of movie one would expect to find featured at an art house. It was more of a typical guy movie with lots of explosions, ground-breaking (at the time) special effects and huge crowds at the box office. (The movie grossed a whopping $817,400,878 world-wide, but like most highly popular movies didn't garner any Academy Awards other than the typical "Visual Effects" award.) Interestingly, I think that the reaction to the film by the audience makes a point that many skeptics don't grasp when reading certain Bible passages.
For the small minority who spent the 1990s in an cultural isolation chamber, Independence Day centered around the arrival of several huge alien spacecraft which hung over major cities around the globe. At one point, following failed human efforts to communicate with the alien craft, the alien ships attacked and destroyed several major cities and a large portion of the population of the planet. In the course of the movie, the viewers learn that the aliens weren't your reasonable, fun-loving aliens like Mork from Ork. Rather, these aliens were much more like a swarm of ravenous locusts moving from field to field utterly destroying everything in their wake. There was no way to reason with these aliens. They didn't want to have peace with humanity. They didn't want to share pictures of the kids over a cup o' joe. There was nothing that humanity could offer to make these aliens go away any more than the farmer can convince the locusts to visit his annoying neighbor's farm instead. They had come to feed. Like Galactus of Fantastic Four fame, the alien civilization travelled in a massive spaceship from planet to planet simply to destroy the planet for its resources and move on.
Warning, if you had planned to visit the "classic" or "science fiction" movie section of your local DVD or Blue Ray rental store (or if you are one of those rare people who like to have older movies sent to you via Netflix) to watch Independence Day because you just got out of your isolation chamber, I suggest you do so before venturing farther into this post. If, however, you have never seen the movie but are understandably overwhelmed with curiosity as to exactly what I might say about the movie despite the fact that I will now spoil the ending, then please read on. But don't say I didn't warn you....
Ultimately the two biggest stars of the movie, Captain Steven Hiller (Will Smith) and David Levinson (Jeff Goldblum), fly up to the mother ship of this alien force in one of the alien fighter ships that had been recovered at the crash site in Roswell in 1947. (This is, of course, an error in the movie. The movie has the ship stored at Area 51, but everyone knows that the alien spaceship and its occupants were actually kept in underground vaults at Wright Patterson Air Force Base.) Using the cover of the alien fighter, Miller and Levinson slip into the mother ship where they launch a big ol' nuclear weapon right up its ... um ... cockpit. The mother ship is ultimately destroyed in a huge, special-effects nuclear blast and the smaller ships (which are still gigantic in size) that have been wrecking havoc across mother earth are defeated by the remnants of the air forces of shattered humanity.
There are a few Biblical concepts that are buried in Independence Day, and the first is a truth that is not found in the movie itself, but in the audience reaction to the movie: evil must be utterly destroyed. What happened in theatres when the aliens were destroyed? I expect that my personal experience was common. When the heroes turned the mother ship into nuclear soup and the nations of the word brought down the smaller (but still humongous) ships attacking the planet in a glorious show of force, practically every single person in the theatre burst into spontaneous cheers (shock and awe that!).
Why are we cheering? Quite simply, it is the correct resolution of the oldest plot in history: spiritual warfare. Good won and evil lost. Moreover, the evil was utterly and completely destroyed. As in The Lord of the Rings, the immediate evil of Sauron was annihilated. And we, being spiritual beings at heart, cheer at the defeat.
But wait a minute, wasn't the alien civilization totally destroyed -- not a single alien life form is left alive? And we cheer this act of genocide? After all, as the story suggests, the alien mother-ship contains the entire population of this particular race. Like other star-faring races of fiction, the entire civilization is travelling in this nomadic destroy and move-on manner. So, the earthlings (with a very geocentrist worldview) committed genocide against an entire alien culture. Why do we cheer this?
The answer (the one that many skeptics can't grasp) is that evil will ultimately be stamped out in its entirety. Deep down we all recognize that this will be so and that this is necessary for the creation of the New Heaven and the New Earth where there will be no evil -- "there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away." (Rev. 21:4b NASB). When we see a personification of evil destroyed utterly and completely, we cheer because we recognize that such complete destruction is absolutely necessary for goodness to finally prevail.
"Wait," some may complain, "they were attacking us first! We have the right to self-defense." Absolutely. But that's the point, isn't it? That's the evidence that they are evil. They were out to destroy Earth first, and Earth responded by wiping out the evil it confronted. And we cheer.
"C'mon," others may say, "they were aliens, after all...." Again, yes, they were aliens (and incredibly ugly aliens, at that), but does that really make the difference? Suppose that the alien spacecraft had arrived and tried to make friends with Earth, but we Earthlings responded by attacking them to keep them from taking over the Earth. Would we cheer when the Earthlings defeated these friendly aliens? I wouldn't think so.
What if the Earthlings made the case that such contact with a more advanced civilization ultimately must result in the absolute annihilation of our civilization? After all, history shows that when a more advanced civilization encounters a comparatively primitive civilization, the more primitive civilization has always been either defeated or swallowed up my more advanced civilizations. Michael Medved paraphrases Yale Professor Howard Lamar in The 10 Big Lies About America who made this point when noting what happens when a Stone Age population confronts a more advanced population.
Think about those stories you see in the news about some headhunter in Borneo who's surviving in the jungle in a loincloth and suddenly he sees a plane overhead. He's never even see a knife or a shoe or a wheel, for that matter, and all of a sudden he's looking at a plane. The next thing you know, his tribe is discovered and here come the doctors, the missionaries, the anthropologists. Well, the tribes can't just disappear back into the jungle. They've made contact, so whatever happens next, their old life is finished. If they fight a modern world, they lose quickly, or else they try to accommodate to it and end up swallowed by a more advanced and powerful culture.
*** The outcome can go only one of two ways -- either sad or horrifying.
So, arguably, the Earthlings could claim that a pre-emptive strike is necessary to preserve our less technologically-advanced, non-star faring culture from this more technologically-advanced population. Would we cheer such an attack? No, I can't imagine too many people cheering the destruction of this ship of gentle ET types.
No, the reason that we cheer is because these aliens are evil. Utterly evil. Destroy humanity evil.
Which brings us to the second point: when a being is intelligent, its actions dictate what is evil. Calling something evil does not depend upon whether the evil ones chose to be that way or cannot help themselves. In other words, for intelligent beings it does not matter if the evil is the result of nature, nurture or choice; evil is evil.
The aliens in Independence Day were clearly intelligent. They drove a interstellar spaceship, for goodness sake. They almost certainly created it and they were able to communicate. They used a strategy in attacking the Earth. Yet, David Levinson (if I remember correctly) compared them to locusts. Locusts don't deliberate when they are going to utterly destroy a field. They act on instinct. Could it be that these aliens were instinctively or genetically driven to act as they did? Ultimately, it doesn't matter what their motivation would be. They were intelligent and were capable of deliberating to not destroy another culture. Regardless of what was driving them, because they were capable of deliberation which means that they were necessarily capable of choosing a different course, the fact that they chose to continue with the destruction of the Earth is what makes their actions evil.
In sum, I don't believe that Independence Day should be seen as a source of great theological insight. However, since the story involves the oldest of all plots -- good versus evil -- I thought it worthwhile to consider what we might learn about evil amidst the battles and destruction. The lessons aren't as deep as those that can be learned from The Lord of the Rings, but there are lessons to be learned -- even from a movie that only won the "Special Effects" Oscar. Surprising.

Absolutely spot on, the day started catching the bait fish, then onto live bait fishing. Chase and the Epic fleet knew exactly where to look and what to do. There was also the added school of dolphins chasing the boat on the way back in. Note: if you get remotely sea sick and it is a windy day, I would...
We had such a grant time, lovely day on the water. Beautiful looking back at tairua from the boat. Paku Mt was so stunning looking at it from the water. We had a fabulous time and would recommend you to set aside a day if you enjoy fishing
Went out with Owen and two other guys. The fishing was a bit Slow, meaning you had to work for your Fish. Owen tried everything he could to put you on the Fish and he succeeded with a big kingfish for me. 21 kg 124cm.
The trip cost me 375 dollars, but it was definetly worth it. Did a lot...
Just got home after a day out with Epic Whitianga on Tom's boat.
The weather was a bit crappy but Tom did a great job getting us onto fish and keeping everything going.
This was the second time I've been out with Epic, I reckon that it has improved too.
Great touch with the few scenic stopovers like the old...
My husband told me this day out fishing met his expectations and more. For years he has dreamed on going on such a fishing trip. The boat, crew, and fellow passengers were all quality. Everyone experienced great action.
We are very, very pleased your husband's expectations were exceeded Nahanni and thank you so much for taking the time to provide this review. We do get nervous before each trip knowing that expectations are often extremely high! However, with the best Captain's (passionate, experienced and fishing the Epic way), top of the line gear (Shimano) and custom designed boats...
If you love fishing or want to give it a try then Epic is for you. I went with four friends and three of the group got personal best fish. Great action, share a few laughs and talk about your day out for years to come.
Great for any experience level. Be prepared to use a bit of energy pulling...
Thanks for your feedback MuzzNZ! It's really pleasing to have you provide such a great review and know that you and your mates will be reliving the day for years to come. It's exactly what we are about. We do try to cater for all levels of fishing experience so, as you know, you won't find our skippers in the...
First day a bust big wind bad weather we really wanted to fish thats on us.
Second day made it clear we did not want to fish unless weather improved and we could chase the big fish we wanted on the outside.
Owner Roy assured us we would be going outside but the skipper had other ideas.
Unfortunately it was...
Thank you very much jendavel for alerting us to your dis-satisfaction with the second day fishing with Epic. We fully appreciate both good and bad feedback and view negative feedback as an opportunity to improve our service. Whilst we aim to be a profitable company, our customer satisfaction is of the highest priority.
Our process is to ensure the customer...
Had a really great day fishing with Skipper Owen and Deckie Tom. Landed our target fish we went to catch. Great operators. Would definitely recommend these tour operators.
Thanks so much Mary. We really do appreciate feedback and always let our Captain's know what people have said. Tom has now joined us as a Captain with his own boat and is just as passionate as our other skippers. He is also our big game specialist on the Coromandel Peninsula. Perhaps we'll host you again to target some Marlin?
Surprised my hubby with a yellowtail kingfish charter. Was a really rough day, and the fishing was tough but Captain Haydn got us on the fish. We had such a great day, we decided to come back a few days later and went out again, this time with Captain Owen and Captain Chase and had an even better day! Can't...
Gosh mel_roks. No wonder we love our customers.... out on a rough day and back for more then taking the time to write a review! Captain's Hadyn, Owen & Chase are all completely passionate about fishing. It's what they do on their days off! We'll hope to see you again one day soon.
After Internet research about yellowtail kingfish charters I was gob smacked at how many fish this company caught and it was true to say the least.
Went on 2 trips with them and both times landed plenty of fish! Best charter I have been on would highly recommend epic!
Work on those muscles before you go your going to need...
Thank you very much for your review Paul. We work hard to make sure we have the best boats, skippers and gear. Along with access to one of the best fisheries in the world we aim to give our customers the highest chance of getting their personal best. You are right about the muscles.... recovery can take a few days!

Hi there, do you target Hapuka in your area and am I right in thinking that we are coming up to the Hapuka season, and I understand that you get puka on a short tide time and therefore can we then turn to snapper and the like after the hapuka have been caught.

There's plenty of good advice in The Value Of Failure (Weekdays, 1.45pm, R4). Novelist Anne Enright tells would-be writers: "The book you're writing is not the final book. What you are writing on any given day is the inferior version." Headteacher Heather Hanbury lectures her girls: "If you don't get in the team, go away and practise and try again." Entrepreneur Keith Cotterill looks for the difference between the honest failure of a project and the dishonest failure of the person behind the project. Former professional cricketer Ed Smith, who assumed he would be an England regular and wasn't, has decided: "A good portion of the value of sport is in the failure; through failure we learn more about people."
This ought to be a series, so badly do we need a corrective to the fantasy that everybody can achieve if only they want it badly enough. It's a fantasy that's taken an even tighter hold since we were encouraged to follow other people's personal "journeys". The journey of the person who fails follows much the same route as that of the person who succeeds. The only difference is the outcome. As Smith says: "Want and hunger are necessary but not sufficient." The real comfort of this programme lies not so much in the advice as in the smile you can hear in the back of the speaker's voice as they tell you about the things that went wrong. That's the true value of failure.
In The First Generation X (Saturday, 8pm, R4), oral historian Alan Dein tracks down some of the people interviewed as teenagers for Charles Hamblett and Jane Deverson's 1964 book Generation X. He also uncovers some very early attempts to find out What The Young People Want back in the days of Mr Cholmondley-Warner in programmes such as The Under-Twenty Club and To Start You Talking. Here we are temporarily plunged back into a world where a 14-year-old's daily duties might include "polishing the back kitchen" and a girl could be the envy of her friends down the Palais because her mother was always running her up a frock. As Jon Savage, whose book, Teenage, was recently been made into a documentary film, points out, society's concerns about teenagers tend to remain constant for the simple reason that "ver kids" – as we used to call them at Smash Hits magazine – tend to repeat back to society what society has dinned into them, only in a less polished way.
Radiolab is a programme from WNYC and NPR in the USA that brings together compelling stories around a science theme. It presents them in that chummy, discursive style, which for some reason seems not to be allowed in British radio. The programme you should start with is Brown Box (the very kind of title that's banned in British radio). In it, self-styled "lady reporter" Mac McClelland talks about her experience of working undercover in one of those massive warehouses 17 football fields long, in which lots of the things that you may have ordered while lying on your couch at home – nappies, books, marital aids, olive oil misters and millions of things to put on and around an iPad – are stored. The customer's greater convenience is bought at the expense of unforgiving pressure on the pickers, who walk many miles in a day to fill the orders, all the while under the inhuman scrutiny of their little hand-held scanner. You'll never order in quite the same way again.

Irrespective of the outcome of the US presidential elections, India and the US must deepen military ties over the next few years, two senior Republican party members said. They also advocated that US must do away with its "outdated" export control policy that limits defence cooperation with India.
"The next American president must be ready to welcome Indians with open arms into the US rebalance," wrote senior Republican members and Trump campaigners Puneet Ahluwalia and Alexander B Gray in the leading US publication 'National Interest'.
Mr Ahluwalia – who is a member of the Asian Pacific American Advisory committee for the Trump campaign – and Mr Gray – who previously served on the US Armed Services committee – outlined the Republican foreign policy agenda. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is a front-runner in the US presidential elections.To begin with the American foreign policy establishment should begin referring to the 'Indo-Pacific' with greater regularity. This is not only an accurate description of the map on which the US and China will be competing, it is also an important rhetorical recognition of India's strategic importance," they said.The next administration must reform the "antiquated" export control regime limiting defence cooperation between Washington and New Delhi, they advised."Such restrictions are hampering technology transfers and defence cooperation. The US has long castigated India for its byzantine bureaucracy; it is time the US fixed its own paperwork deficiencies to strengthen this relationship," they said adding that a deeper relationship with India was important for the US to counter China's growing belligerence in the region.While Beijing's brinkmanship in the South and East China Seas and bullying behaviour towards US' partners like Philippines, Japan, Australia and Singapore have most occupied Washington policymakers, there is another important but underused arrow available in the US quiver to fully implement the much-heralded 're-balance' to Asia," they wrote.

Mommy Makeover after Pulmonary embolisms caused from birth control?
I am 30 years old with three children all born by C-section. After having my last child 4 years ago I got on birth control to help with my menstrual cycle. After being on the birth control for less than 2 months I developed blood clots in my lungs. I took warfarin for 8 months and went to a hemotologist and was cleared from any blood disorders that could cause clots. It was ruled that they came specifically from traveling and the estrogen in the birth control. Can I get a TT after blood clots?
Doctor Answers 4
Mommy make-over - previous pulmonary emobolism
Thank you for asking about your mommy make-over.
- I am sorry you had such a problem with birth control - and very glad you are better.
- Yes, you can have a mommy make-over.
- Careful planning is required -
- The surgery should be well within the safe 6 hour limit
- You need preventive blood thinning with heparin or enoxaparin afterwards -
- Probably a post-operative duplex ultrasound of your legs to be sure no clots are forming.
- And surgical clearance from your hematologist to be sure nothing more needs to be done.
- Always see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Best wishes - Elizabeth Morgan MD PHD FACS
Tummy Tuck after blood clots
Yes, you can have a TT even though you have a history of blood clots. You should first get medical clearance from your hematologist and be sure to give a complete medical history to you plastic surgeon during your initial consultation so that proper precautions can be taken.Good luck!
Tummy tuck and history of blood clots
You ask a very important question that affects you individually and those many women who also want a trimmer figure but may have a medical history including prior blood clots. As long as you have been cleared by your hematologist to undergo a 2 1/2 - 3 hour operation under general anesthesia, additional precautions are appropriate to ensure your safety. These would include cessation of any oral contraceptive/hormone product at least one month prior to operation; the use of sequential compression stockings throughout the operation and recovery; possibly the use of injectable blood thinners although the risk with this may exceed the measurable benefit and provoke undesired bleeding; use of tumescent anesthetic combined with conscious sedation so that you don't have to go under general anesthesia. Not all surgeons are familiar with tummy tuck under sedation and you may not be a suitbale physical candidate for this type of anesthesia. Best to consult with a BNoard Certified plastic surgeon who can demonstrate extensive experience with tummy tuck and alternate forms of anesthesia.

Blood clots
Yes you can have a tummy tuck even with a history of blood clots. There is still a risk that you could develop them again after surgery, so extra precautions will need to be taken. Be sure to mention your medical history to your surgeon at your consultation. You may need to visit a hematologist for a work up prior to surgery just to be safe.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
Cameron ScottFeb. 7, 2007 5:50 PM
Not only has the Bush administration been purging out-of-favor U.S. attorneys across the nation, it has also been using its DOJ to investigate Democrats far more frequently than Republicans, according to TPMmuckraker. From 2001 to 2006, when Democrats made up just half of all elected officials (local and national) in the country, 79 percent of the DOJ's investigations targeted Dems. The data comes from a study by two retired professors, Dr. Donald C. Shields of University of Missouri-St. Louis and Dr. John F. Cragan of Illinois State University. "The chance of such a heavy Democratic-Republican imbalance occurring at random is 1 in 10,000," reported the study's authors.

The President's $2.9 trillion budget includes nearly $500 million to fund a nuclear waste dump and $400 million fewer dollars for our poor (literally) national rail service, Amtrak. Oh, and he plans to sell off $800 million worth of National Forest land. More gory details here.

After former CPA head Paul Bremer got grilled by Henry Waxman yesterday, the press has rediscovered the story of the billions of dollars in reconstruction money that went missing during the heady days after the fall of Baghdad. In particular, it's glommed onto the nifty fact that the U.S. government shipped 363 tons of Benjamins (and maybe some Ulysseses, too) to Iraqmuch of which was spread around like play money. In his defense, Bremer explained, "We were in the middle of a war, working in very difficult conditions, and we had to move quickly to get this Iraqi money working for the Iraqi people." Apparently democracy is a lot easier to export than standard accounting practices.
The revealing tale of the cash airlift isn't new, howeverwe wrote about it in September 2005. It's good to see it being picked up again, though. And it gives me an excuse to post this great photo of CPA officials giddily posing with $2 million in cash, which was given to the security contractor Custer Battles, which was accused ofdefrauding the government.
Update: Post amended in light of Custer Battles' fraud conviction being overturned later today.

There are several reasons to take a look at (and maybe even vote in) this "Best Senator" poll.
First, you can see where your senators rank.
Second, you can actually see what these people look like. (The answer, of course: white, male.)
Third, there's the fact that of the first 49 senators ranked by "integrity, honor, dignity and character" only one is a Republican: Chuck Hagel.
Fourth, there's the fact that of all the Democrats, the only two to not crack the top 50 are Hillary Clinton and Mary Landrieu, of Katrina fame.
Fifth, there's the parade of crooks and crazy men who do better than Joe Lieberman and John McCain, Nos. 98 and 99 respectively.

Word comes from the Chicago Tribune that Barack Obama is
quitting smoking! (Can't resist: "Up Next! Hillary Cuts Her Toenails!")
The real issue is, what happens to Obama's smoking advantage?!? You know, the one that was ridiculously overblown, never actually existed, and was just a product of over-caffeinated political junkies looking for any angle at all to write a counter-intuitive story.

With news that Dick Cheney's son-in-law is the primary culprit in a Department of Homeland Security effort to block any oversight, I thought I'd point you all to this chart we drew up last year. Follow the link and you'll find that many DHS workers are so unhappy with their jobs, they'd probably rather be working fast-food.

Bill O'Reilly and Glen Beck are still covering the Biden/Obama/"articulate" flap that I think a lot of people -- including me -- wish would just go away. O'Reilly and Beck are highlighting it because they feel the whole situation illustrates the plight of beleaguered white people who can't have black friends (honest, this is their argument) because they are afraid they might slip up and say something, maybe even a compliment, that unbeknownst to them is insulting to the black person in the room. The subtext here, of course, is this: "Well, gosh, us white people just try to say nice things about black people, and sometimes black people get all worked up, and we just don't know why, and man, white people just can't get a break."
Look. Just don't be stupid. Is that really so hard? Here's what the New York Times wrote about the issue: "When whites use the word [articulate] in reference to blacks, it often carries a subtext of amazement, even bewilderment." Okay, yes, exactly. Barack Obama is a man of many talents, who has accomplished more in his life than most Americans ever will: If the most you can say about the man is that he doesn't sound like some gang-banger, you're not giving him much of a chance. And you're damning by faint praise. Bill O'Reilly must understand this, and if he doesn't, he would if thought about it for a half-second. As a commenter on this blog wrote in response to one of our previous posts, "When was the last time someone said Chuck Schumer was "articulate"? Or Bill Clinton, or Chuck Hagel? They all are, but people have moved beyond how they talk and onto their other qualities."
The Times continued, "Such a subtext is inherently offensive because it suggests that the recipient of the 'compliment' is notably different from other black people." Again, this should be obvious. If you are amazed that one black man doesn't sounds like a gang-banger, you're letting your assumptions show: You assume that all black men speak Ebonics (or, as I suspect Glen Beck would call it, "jive"). Anyone who doesn't is the "exceptional Negro." (Link again goes to the NYT article, which is well worth reading.)
Allow me to requote a passage I quoted earlier from the Chicago Tribune:
Well-spoken black people hate it when white people call them "articulate." It's the modern-day version of what white people used to say back in the day when they thought that by saying "He's a credit to his race" they were saying something that a black person would welcome hearing.
Those dated words, like Biden's comments, were patronizing at the very least. And they also appeared to carry some pretty negative assumptions about the majority of the race.
The smart, accomplished, and successful Bill O'Reilly is bright enough to understand this, and I suspect he's just playing a dumb-like-a-fox routine. But if he keeps pretending like he's an idiot, I'm going to run out of adjectives to use when blogging about him. I guess the only thing that would left would be...

A lot has been written about how women are perceived to be either "not funny" or "not as funny as men." Now that there are a number of respected women comics, that paradigm has changed somewhat in that women can be funny as long as their humor is not aggressive. Ellen DeGeneres, for example, is generally considered funny by anyone who is not a hopeless homophobe, partly because her humor is not at all aggressive (this is not a criticism, by the way--I think DeGeneres is hilarious). Margaret Cho is another story: She says bad words, and she talks about sex in great (and hysterically funny) detail. She not only makes people uncomfortable--she is a woman, she is Asian-American, and she is a member of the LGBT community, to boot.
Perhaps no one, though, has fueled the "women are funny as long as they are 'feminine'" fire as much as Sarah Silverman, whose television series debuted last Thursday night. Both men and women have walked out of her shows, and I have heard many supposedly liberal people call her humor "tasteless" and "disgusting." But the fact of the matter is that Silverman, and other female comics like her, do not push the envelope any farther than a Chris Rock or a Dave Chappelle, whom these same critics admire.
Silverman's humor is not everyone's cup of tea, to be sure. I am not making a case for whether she is a good comic; I am just pointing out that the "shocking" things that come out of her mouth would be considered "badass" if they came out of the mouth of a male comic. Drew Carey says it well: "Comedy is about aggression and confrontation and power. As a culture we just don't allow women to do all that stuff."
Christopher Hitchens, writing for Vanity Fair, recently acknowledged that there are some funny women comics around, but "Most of them, though, when you come to review the situation, are hefty or dykey or Jewish, or some combo of the three." One might just as well say that most of the really funny male comics are black or Jewish (forgive me, those who think Robin Williams is still funny).
Hitchens, to his credit, also says:
Precisely because humor is a sign of intelligence (and many women believe, or were taught by their mothers, that they become threatening to men if they appear too bright), it could be that in some way men do not want women to be funny. They want them as an audience, not as rivals. And there is a huge, brimming reservoir of male unease, which it would be too easy for women to exploit.

Well, maybe slightly worse than Duke Cunningham. He bombed a U.S. embassy, and a French embassy, and maybe killed a Kuwaiti police officer and is maybe spying for Iran. And yep, Jamal Jafaar Mohammed is an elected member of Iraq's parliment. Let's hear it for Iraqi Democracy. Makin' us proud!

The Animal Health Trust is targeting the harvest mite as a possible cause of the mystery illness that has been killing dogs.
The Animal Health Trust has begun a pilot study to investigate a possible link between Seasonal Canine Illness (SCI) and harvest mites.
SCI is a mystery illness that in recent years has made a number of dogs walked in woodlands suddenly become ill.
Cases are usually seen from August to November, with dogs showing clinical signs of vomiting, diarrhoea and/or lethargy within 24 to 72 hours of walking in woodland.
Dog owners are advised to seek immediate veterinary advice should they see these signs in their dog following a woodland walk.
So far this year, there have been 49 cases reported to the AHT, from across all of its current investigation sites. A number of cases reported to the charity have shown evidence of harvest mite infestation.
Charlotte Robin, SCI Research Coordinator at the AHT, said: "To enable us to eliminate harvest mites as a potential cause of SCI, we are advising dog owners to treat their dogs with a fipronil spray directly before walking in woodlands."
There are currently no licensed products that will specifically prevent harvest mites, however fipronil spray is believed to be effective in preventing other mites.
The researchers believe it is important dog owners use the spray and not the spot-on treatment, which may not provide the same level of localised protection on vulnerable areas.
Charlotte added: "Dog owners need to be aware that using fipronil spray may not protect their dog from SCI, but it could protect them from harvest mites and other external parasites. What we are trying to do with this study is eliminate the harvest mite and other external parasites from our enquiries.
"Clearly, if harvest mites are not causing SCI then using fipronil spray is not going to stop dogs from contracting SCI, so please remain vigilant for the clinical signs in your dog and contact your vet immediately for advice if you suspect something is wrong."
In addition, the AHT is working with the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk to offer dog owners who wish to participate in the study access to the spray free of charge, if deemed appropriate by their vet.

Thanks largely to the mild insanities of the rugby rulebook, striking features of which include non-competitive line-outs and the virtual abandonment of the ruck as an attacking dynamic, England lost by a mere seven points when they might have conceded 40.
Two glistening French tries in the opening quarter were followed by no fewer than five might-have-beens and but for a bovine second row's pass here, a marginal forward pass there and a knock-on somewhere else, not to mention a couple of distinctly dodgy refereeing calls from David McHugh, Les Tricolores would have been off the scoreboard.
At least Woodward was characteristically up front in accepting the truth that lay behind the deceit of the final scoreline. "Of course the score flattered us," the coach said. "It would have been a travesty had we got out of there with a win, even though we played far better after the interval and might conceivably have snatched it.
"All our Englishness came out of us for some reason and it caused us to play too conservatively, but I'm not going to change the way I think about the game.
"The objective is to get to next year's World Cup with a team capable of winning it and while we could grind out the odd result now, we can't expect to beat sides like France on the big occasion without playing in a certain way. It's not difficult to ask players to perform in the style I want to see, the difficulty is getting them to put it in place. But I'm committed to moving our game forward."
Fine words. But the pressure on Woodward to re-root his vision in something approaching reality is mounting slowly but surely and the match with Wales at Twickenham on Saturday week is now of the must-win variety.
Woodward may be suspicious of the back-to-basics approach - it did not do much for John Major's trouser-dropping government, after all - but as England have already been caught with their pants down, he has nothing to lose by returning to fundamentals.
That fundamentalism should apply initially and immediately to the front row, which once again resembled a toothless pensioner chewing hopelessly on a rock cake.
Both Woodward and Lawrence Dallaglio, a desperately disappointed English captain, went the extra diplomatic mile in deflecting attention from the scrummaging issue, but the sight of the astonishing Christian Califano imposing his great bull-like torso on Darren Garforth at the set-piece before steaming 40 metres upfield with the ball encased in one huge, hairy paw was pretty definitive.
"I think the scrum was the determining factor out there," acknowledged Olivier Magne, the predatory flanker from Brive. "We were always going forward and that enabled my back row colleagues and myself to get to the English in areas they could not afford to be tackled in.
"Apart from the attacking opportunities created by a strong scrum, it is also the first and most important line of defence. Their back row was in trouble all game because England could not match us at the set-piece."
It did not help the visitors' cause that Martin Johnson, last summer's Lions captain and a walking embodiment of English brawn, found Olivier Brouzet far too hot to handle. Indeed, Johnson is too quiet by half at the moment. Perhaps he knew it would be a bad day at the office when he saw Garath Archer, one of the most physically imposing specimens in the red rose pack, being stripped of the ball by Philippe Carbonneau, who usually requires a trampoline to get on nodding terms with Archer's navel.
Only four Englishmen -Neil Back, Kyran Bracken and the two bold and combative wings, David Rees and Austin Healey - emerged with their reputations enhanced, although Jeremy Guscott's tantalising flickers of attacking genius kept the home midfield on red alert. On the other side of half-way, however, the French were delivering en masse through Jean-Luc Sadourny's sublime angles, Philippe Bernat-Salles' pace and the delicious subtlety of Stephane Glas at inside centre.
And towering above them from five feet nothing was Thomas Castaignede, who bamboozled the 80,000 sell-out crowd every bit as comprehensively as the English defence and, in the process, added another fistful of noughts to his asking price in the marketplace. "My contract with Castres has two years left to run," he insisted, none of which is likely to prevent both Newcastle and Saracens offering the earth for his services.
"Our defensive discipline was the key to our victory and I think that the French rugby spirit is changing," said the bleach-blond stand-off from Mont-de-Marsan. "We are still an up and down team - we can beat anyone one week, then lose to Italy the next - but we are calmer when things go against us now and even more importantly, we go on to the field believing that we have the players to win.
"We don't think 'Oh, it's England, this will be difficult'. We know now that it is easier to beat them than our recent predecessors believed. This game is played in the head, you know."
And with it, too. The French may have cost themselves a deluge of points with unforced errors, but their strategic options were almost invariably spot on. Jean- Claude Skrela and Pierre Villepreux have vast potential at their fingertips and, frighteningly, the know-how to maximise it. We saw a great French side in the making on Saturday and it will be fascinating to watch them evolve.
England are not quite at the other end of the evolutionary scale, but their rugby is nowhere near as sophisticated. Too many forwards remain uncomfortable with ball in hand, too many decision-makers allow themselves to be flummoxed by the demands of the international stage.
The gloom of Saturday evening will hang over Woodward's charges for the rest of this week and much of next before they turn their attentions to the Welsh. George Orwell had it just about right, it seems. Down and Out in Paris and London.

THE Duchess of Cambridge could miss Christmas with the Queen.
Kate, 30, still has severe pregnancy sickness. In a bid to recover, she may
spend the holiday with her parents instead of at the Royal Family's
traditional get-together at Sandringham, Norfolk. Kate spent three nights in
hospital this month with hyperemesis gravidarum and experts say she may
suffer for several weeks.
She has been recovering by staying with husband Prince William at Nottingham
Cottage, the home they share in the grounds of Kensington Palace.
A royal aide said it was "too early" to say if the Duchess would travel to
Sandringham. The aide added: "The only Royal Family we would definitely say
are staying are the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh."
The Duchess spent her first Christmas Day at the country estate last year —
when 3,000 people turned out to see her.

London, Aug 5 (ANI): A Scottish woman, who is believed to have stabbed her three children to death before jumping from a second-storey balcony, had been on the run after a bitter custody battle.
Theresa Riggi, 46, who was in the middle of a divorce battle with husband Pasquale, had first fled with her kids from her home in Skene, Aberdeen, on July 11, and was later traced to a friend's flat in Edinburgh on July 21.
When a court issued a warrant for her arrest, she disappeared again with the children on August 3, and ended up staying in the Slateford suburb.
On August 4 her neighbours heard a really loud bang and called 999 fearing a gas leak.
A 21-year-old man, who did not want to give his name, witnessed her jumping off the balcony.
"I was sitting in my living room, I heard screaming. It was really bad. I went outside. She was standing on the balcony. She was holding her arms, like she was already injured," the Sun quoted the man as saying.
"She was crying and screaming. There were about five of us saying, 'Don't do it, don't jump'. Then she jumped off. My neighbour tried to catch her and she kind of landed on his arms.
"She was lying on the floor and I left the scene - it was all too much," he stated.
When the emergency crew arrived at the house, they put out a small fire in the three-floor townhouse, and then found Riggi's twin sons Luca and Austin, eight, and daughter Cecilia, five, stabbed to death in the living room.
"It was a horrific scene inside. The kids were lying on the floor with stab wounds and there was blood all over the floor," a source said.
"Outside the house, the woman was crumpled in a heap with numerous cuts and broken bones," the source stated.
Riggi is said to be in a serious condition at the hospital, and the police are waiting to question her about the incident.
"This is a tragic set of circumstances," a police source added. (ANI)

Mismatched Evolution
In this funny world, evolution has become a day to day way of life, and the mismatching of species is a common though sometimes adventurous process. The style of writing and language in this story is one that I am just beginning to explore and play with, so let me know your response.
"Do not alarm him."
Harlow touched the ground with his fingers to balance his crouching form as his associate's snout-like nose sniffed at the furry animal whose reputation for chaos was the cause for this ridiculous chase.
"He will bite."
Harlow gave his companion one of his exasperated damn-it-all expressions. "And how do I stop it from biting me?"
"Cover your delicious smell."
Harlow allowed the disgust to wrinkle his lip, and his manner of professionalism slipped for a moment of calculated repulsion. "And do I smell delicious?"
His slightly carnivorous friend shrugged his bony shoulders and scratched his nose with a single claw. "I wouldn't risk eating you."
"Some relief that brings," Harlow commented. "It sounds as if you have a better eye for nutrition than this disfigured creature whose tendencies you have described as biting when alarmed."
He gazed awkwardly back at the two yellow eyes, but the lack of intelligence that answered his questioning stare left an unsettling uneasiness akin to the response possibly experienced upon witnessing one's own reflection fooling off without consent.
"You are closer to his species. What would it take to alarm a fellow like this?"
His companion sniffed. "A fellow like this does not need a reason. Truly, he is quite out of his mind like a moth out of a cocoon. There's no going back."
Harlow rather disliked this metaphor, but being a decent sport, he chose to express this opinion by suggesting an alternative. "I think he is more like a dragon out of his egg. There's no going back, and there's an awful lot of charging forward, and screaming, and roaring, and carrying on."
But it was at this finely balanced moment that their cynical conversations were paused due to a motion from their cornered quarry.
"How will we know when he is alarmed?"
Harlow's companion gave the polite equivalent to a snort, which came off as an amused huff followed by a preparatory breath with an obvious explanation hanging on the tip of a rather pointy tongue. "There is no analytical telling of such things," he said in a scholarly voice. "Either he tries to kill you or not. Being alarmed is not a static state; it is more of an action."
"What should we do if he is alarmed?"
"Is alarmed?" asked Harlow's peculiar friend. "I think you have misunderstood. Alarmed is more of an action. If he is, as you say, alarmed, then that relates to him alarming us. It is an action, and there is no step in between."
"So if we alarm him, then we are really alarming ourselves?" asked Harlow. His poor mind was beginning to go in circles in preparation for an abrupt abortion procedure to escape the mental operations that often accompanied the exposure to long periods of his accomplice's attempt at science.
"In fact," his accomplice continued without mercy, "The alarming fact that allows his act of alarming to be, as you say, a state of alarm, is truly, in itself, a mechanism of the alarming action that we, in the first place, inflicted upon the mindless creature. And you could then say that the lack of mind in our quarry's body is truly a reflex, or reflection if you will, of any danger we present."
Harlow rubbed his brow. "I think you're trying too hard to evolve."
His accomplice shrugged. "Maybe you are devolving."
Harlow frowned. The world was an upside-down place. But if he had to walk on his hands to stay upright, then he would do what was necessary. And that meant dealing with this reckless cross-breed whose yellow eyes watched their every move even now in this simple, contemplative moment.
"Well," Harlow sighed, "I suppose we ought to take action. This dawdling will only give our creature friend more time to catch his breath." He turned to his companion as an idea came to surface. "Your complicated reflection theory may come in handy after all. If we give him food, he will give us food."
His companion chuckled. "And now I believe that you do not have a very good eye for nutrition."
The two friends turned one last time to gaze upon their unruly foe before leaping forward in simultaneous motion.
