The Carmine Ledger
Oriana, Wrench, Zane, and Frederick the driver were arrayed around a table in the corner of a crowded but quiet tavern in Southpass. All of the place's customers seemed to be groups that valued their privacy, as no one spoke in more than the most hushed of tones. Oriana had never seen anything like it; typically Romantics were boisterous and unconcerned with being overheard.
But then again, that was likely why Zane had chosen this place.
"It's not too bad now," said a Cynic to whom the group had not yet been introduced. He wore a cloak so red that Oriana couldn't imagine him possibly blending in with his countrymen and their drab outfits. "A small group of soldiers and a Shade, plus the Pass's usual guard."
"But that won't last, I'm sure," Zane reasoned. "Additional trouble will be on its way. It's only a matter of time."
"You're right," came another voice, sharp enough in contrast to the whispers filling the building that many other tables looked up in annoyance or curiosity.
The girl to whom the voice belonged ducked her head and frowned before sitting beside Zane at the table. She was another Cynic, and also wearing red, but hers was much more subdued and Oriana recognized the form-fitting but sensible cut of her clothes as tailored for moving quietly through forest.
"Advance reinforcements are already arriving," the girl continued, this time in a conspiratorial whisper. "Another Shade, and a dozen soldiers on horses."
Zane opened his mouth to reply to this, but paused when he noticed Wrench's hand in the air. He didn't seem to know what to do about it. Wrench waved her hand above her head.
"…yes?" Zane finally prompted.
"Who're all dese people?" she asked, gesturing to Frederick and the other two Cynics.
"They're associates of mine," Zane explained. "Frederick is a travelling merchant. James is an entertainer. And Kelly is a forester."
Wrench had barely finished looking unsatisfied with this answer when Kelly spoke up.
"We're lieutenants of the Carmine Ledger," she said with a proud smile, her posture straightening.
"You have a… cult?" Oriana asked Zane, raising an eyebrow.
"It's not a cult, it's a group of people who have agreed to help me try to protect you from the Crown," Zane said, exasperated.
"Why do they care?"
"They don't, necessarily…" he admitted. "But my ledger allows me to secure very sensitive contracts for people with absolute certainty the terms won't be reneged upon. In turn, they agree to render me their services."
"And what, they sign contracts with you for it?"
Zane hesitated for a moment but nodded.
"So, they could die?" Oriana demanded, her voice rising enough to gather the attention of nearby patrons.
Zane averted his gaze, and nodded again.
Oriana glared at him, looking ready to get into a yelling match with the boy. But before she get any words out Kelly interjected. Her voice was quiet but her tone was dangerous and her eye burned in reflection of it.
"Look, you ungrateful brat, Zane has done all of this and put his own life in danger countless times just to protect you. You should be thanking him, not telling him off."
Oriana was taken aback by the stranger's tone, but she was not silenced. "Just because his goal is good doesn't mean he can do any terrible things he wants to get there. He's coercing people into giving their lives for him, in my name!"
"He's not coercing anything," Kelly nearly growled. "His contracts gave many of us back our lives! We owe it to him to help him try to save you, even if you don't deserve his help."
"Kelly…" Zane started, but Frederick held up a hand and the gesture almost seemed to physically cut off his words.
"She's right," James chimed in. "It was our choice. We knew what we would be getting into, going up against the Crown. And not all of us have such dangerous jobs."
"Right," Kelly said, nodding with vigour but restraining her tone for Zane's sake. "We volunteer to be the sneaky ones in the dangerous situations. *And* breaching contracts is already punishable by death anyway."
Oriana was not entirely convinced. But the way the Cynics did things had never sat right with her, and as far as she could tell Zane really hadn't *forced* these people to do anything. They seemed to want to help him, and by all appearances he did just want to help her.
She decided to drop the subject for the time being. She could come back to it after she had given it some thought.
"Okay, fine," she said, before a smirk came to her face. "But did you have to name it after yourself?"
Zane stared, and then threw his hands up in the air in exasperation. "I didn't!" he protested. "The group and myself are both named after the colour of the ledger you gave me. I have no recollection of my family name."
Oriana got the impression he had explained this many times. She also got the impression it was just as funny every time. She stared around the edge of the table at the book on his hip. It was red, like she remembered.
"Is that colour 'carmine'…?"
Zane crossed his arms on the table and slumped forward, hiding his head. Oriana could hear muffled groaning.
"That's what I said!" Kelly agreed. "It's really more like burgundy or maroon."
"No no, it's far darker," James piped in.
"Crimson," Frederick grunted.
James pointed to Frederick and tipped his head in agreement. "But 'Zane Crimson' doesn't have the same ring to it, does it?"
"Yeah, but 'Da Crimson Ledger' is pret-ty neat," Wrench noted, nodding sagely.
James and Kelly oooh'd, and Frederick nodded with her.
Oriana, meanwhile, was staring at the top of Zane's head.
"So why carmine?" she asked.
Zane groaned some more and lifted his head with theatrical effort. "I'm fairly sure it is carmine," he muttered. "Had I known this colour was not common knowledge I would have chosen a different name."
"Well, I think it sounds pretty good," she assured him, with a smile that grew smarmier as she spoke. "Besides, thanks to your mistake the Crown will be busy looking for some guy with a 'carmine' ledger instead of a red one."
Wrench chuckled quietly, and Oriana stifled her own laughter. The rest of the group were not so polite about it, though, and chortled, guffawed, and snorted uproariously. Zane's head sunk back into his arms.
"Can we just get to the plan?" came his voice through the protective arm wall.
"No way, food's here!" Kelly piped up, seeing two of the tavern's staff headed toward them loaded with plates. "You guys better have ordered me something good!"
× × ×
Plates of leftover food were scattered across the table like the debris from a delicious explosion, and the group slumped around it looked like they'd been hit by the force of one. Wrench and Frederick looked particularly sluggish—though contented—after their eating contest had ended in an impressive stack of cleared plates and an amiable draw.
"Well fought," Wrench whispered over the end of the speech Zane had been regaling them with, holding her fist out to Frederick. Frederick nodded and gave her fist a dap with his own.
"That should be everything. Does anyone have any questions?" Zane asked.
If anyone did, they were apparently not in any condition to ask them.
Zane frowned. "Well, I hope that's just a sign I've explained it well. We can discuss any concerns that may surface in the morning, though. We don't know how far ahead of those Shades we are and any time we waste only makes the situation in Mardok more trying."
Though many heaving sighs and groaning attempts (and failures) at movement were had, the group eventually made it to their feet and scatter to their rooms. Zane asked Oriana to stay behind.
"Oriana, about the ledger…"
"Don't worry about it," Oriana reassured him. "I haven't quite decided how I feel about it but you're off the hook for now."
Zane's eye swung from corner to corner as he considered this before settling back on Oriana's face. He nodded.
"Additionally, your bow. We were unable to locate a toy-maker with arrows of the correct size and quality for use in combat. So I'm afraid you'll have to do without."
Oriana couldn't interpret the strange, pointed look he was giving her. Like she should already know what he was thinking. She raised an eyebrow.
"…your bow was an integral part of your role in tomorrow's excitement…?" he offered.
"Of course. So what are we going to do about it?"
Zane squirmed. She might have found it entertaining if she hadn't been worried about where the conversation was going.
"Well… nothing. I didn't want to embarrass you in front of everyone, but you'll need to sit this one out."
"No," Oriana countered without hesitation. "We'll figure something out. Give me a sword."
"You don't even know how to use a sword," Zane cringed. "You'll be much safer if you just stay out of it."
"Safer? Who cares about safer? You want me to just let everyone risk their lives for me while I do nothing?"
"Yes! Or the risk they're taking will have been for nothing! I fail to see how this is any different than the past few years they've been doing so while you did nothing in Genethan," Zane said.
His eye widened as soon as the words left his mouth, but he realized his mistake far too late. He had barely touched the ground before Oriana started walking away, shaking out the tension the punch had left in her hand.
Sitting involuntarily on the floor, Zane touched his cheek gingerly. His normally pristine hair had shifted over his good eye, revealing the sunken eyelid where his right eye should have been. His ledger had fallen open beside him, revealing one of many contracts he had with his followers. His shirt was running up on his stomach and his rapier cape had fallen off completely.
But for once he didn't seem to care how inelegant he looked. He sat in silence as a bruise began showing its first signs on his face, staring into nothingness.
Down the hall Oriana had left through, the nearest door crept open and Kelly stepped out. She sauntered over to Zane and offered him a hand getting up, which he wordlessly declined. She shrugged and sat on the floor beside him.
"That went well," she teased.
"I chose my words poorly, perhaps, but I'm only attempting to keep her safe. I can't imagine why she reacted in that manner."
"I'll bet you can't."
Zane gave her a curious look. "Would you have acted the same way, were you in her position?"
"No," Kelly admitted, grinning at the look of vindication this gave him. "Her jab sucks. I would have hit you much harder."
Zane frowned and heaved a sigh. Kelly laughed.
"For someone you've dedicated your life to, you still have a lot to learn about her."
"I suppose my lessons will begin tomorrow, when she runs into danger with no weapon or regard for her personal safety," he muttered.
"I'm sure they will! Come on, let's get you to bed."
Accepting her offer of help this time, Zane straightened out his clothing, gave his ledger a long look before picking it up, and trudged down the hallway to his room.

Sienna Castillo Model
About Me
My interest in photography began shooting scenes, botanical items, family members, sporting events and has grown to include models. I like having fun during shoots, capitalizing on the creativeness of the model and my inspiration for quality photos. Working with models to bring out their personality and challenging them to bring out their passion is something that I find very rewarding.
I enjoy outdoor and indoor settings for shoots. Themes based on natural beauty, glamour, fitness, lingerie, casual and implied is the range I work with, but am open to others. It is important for me that the model feels comfortable and enjoys herself or himself during a shoot. I will treat you like the professional that you are.
My desire is to continue to build my portfolio and assist models building their own portfolios. Both TFP and compensation, depending on the assignment or shoot, are available. While I have a "day job", my plan is to make photography a source of income and not just a hobby.
I look forward to collaborating with other photographers and models to enhance my abilities.

Dream Come True
Claude arrived as he usually did to registration - on time and on his own. He sat in his usual seat - in the corner on the side of the room which was furthest from the door, on the very back row of tables. As per usual no one sat beside him.
Soon Mr Foreman was taking the register and when he reached Claude's name, Claude called out "Good morning," making several people jump as he normally did because few people actually realised he was there. Oh, life was dull.
He had almost forgotten about the new kid and allowed himself to float down into the world of mental blankness he customarily visited when nothing interesting was happening and his attention wasn't required for anything. Usually he stayed here until the end of registration period but today he was jerked out of it when a male voice suddenly called, "Hi; is this Mr Foreman's class?"
Claude looked over in the person's direction and stared , in a mixture of horror and amazement, at the boy who had just appeared at the door, at the boy who must be Matt.
The new boy, in Claude's class, at Claude's school, was the young man from Claude's imagination. There was absolutely no doubt about it. He had the same jet black hair (albeit rather more messy and less straight than in Claude's daydreams), the same icy blue eyes, the same sharp nose and jaw, the same thin, pale lips, and the same tall, slender figure. The only thing denoting that this was, in fact, reality was the fact that right now he was standing in the hallway of a place Claude would never have imagined him in.
How could this be happening?
"Oh, yes," Mr Foreman replied, smiling. "Welcome, Matt. Do take a seat."
Claude quickly masked his feelings as Matt looked around the class, interest evident in his eyes. Claude noted that, as in his imagination, Matt looked about two years older than him. What was he doing in this class?
"Come and sit with us, Matt," called a girl named Susie who was surrounded by her girlfriends. Every girl at that table looked like she had her eye on him.
"Nah, you're better off with us," called Jerry, the captain of the boy's football team. Those boys looked friendly enough but were part of the large group of people who didn't ever ask Claude if he wanted to hang out.
Claude sighed internally. The silent, watchful presence, the guy from his dreams, was going to sit with someone else in his class - since why would he possibly want to associate with a loner? All Claude's hopes that he would be the one to support him and be his very best friend would be shattered as if they had never meant anything to the power that had turned his imagination into reality. What had Claude been thinking, wishing that the guy would come to life? It wouldn't change a thing. Claude would still be the loner, still be the guy with no real friends, still wonder what was wrong with him - except now he'd be worse, because now he had nothing to hold onto for comfort or to anchor him as the seas began to swell for the most terrifying storm in the history of sailing.
"Hey there. What's your name?"
Claude was startled. He turned his head from the direction of the window he had been staring through unseeingly for the last few minutes and faced Matt.
He swallowed hard.
This couldn't be happening... could it?
"Hi," Claude murmured, finding his voice dry as he waited for the image of the guy of his dreams -curiously superimposed onto the space before him - to disappear.
Matt fought back a smile.
"Hi? That's your name? Oh, never mind. May I sit here?" He gestured to the seat. Claude stared for a moment too long at his hand and looked away, blushing.
"Sure." He swallowed again, trying to hold himself together as his world threatened to collapse from excitement. Matt was going to sit next to him! He had actually chosen him!

With the MLS Eastern Conference as wide open as it was down the stretch last season, a roster tweak in the right direction could be all it takes to separate certain clubs from the pack.
In the opening month of the offseason, no teams did more to augment their rosters than the Philadelphia Union and Sporting Kansas City, two clubs that felt they had what it took to win the conference crown last season before ultimately losing out to the Houston Dynamo.
With SKC adding Bobby Convey to the fold and Philadelphia tapping into the international market to add talent from Costa Rica and Panama, the two teams figure to be very much in the mix yet again in 2012.
Then there's the expansion Montreal Impact, whose calculated roster construction makes it seem like the club won't be a typical expansion pushover in its inaugural MLS year.
While those three clubs have been the most active during the offseason, here is a look at the comings and goings in the entire conference to date:
Not much in the way of headline news has come out of the Windy City, where the Fire's only adds so far have been adding complementary pieces in former Vancouver goalkeeper Jay Nolly and New England forward Kheli Dube.
The club cut ties with Colombian import Cristian Nazarit and former U.S. Under-20 striker Gabriel Ferrari, who is in the process of recovering from ACL reconstruction.
The Fire also lost two players in the re-entry draft, as Baggio Husidic and Jon Conway were both selected in the second phase of the draft.
Chicago did secure the services of forward Orr Barouch, purchasing his rights from Tigres after having him on loan in 2011.
Another offseason, another roster purge by the Crew. Granted, this season's edition is hardly as drastic as last year's, but Designated Player (and the team's leading goal scorer) Andres Mendoza is gone, as is MLS all-time leading goal scorer Jeff Cunningham. Robbie Rogers could very well be the next big name to bolt Crew Stadium, as he is out of contract and has been rumored to be making a move overseas.
Talented left back Josh Gardner was picked in the expansion draft, and midfielders Kevin Burns and Santiago Prim and defender Dejan Rusmir were ushered out of town as well.
The Crew did sign their second-ever Homegrown Player in goalkeeper Matt Lampson, and they brought in former New York Red Bulls defender Carlos Mendes through the re-entry draft to provide cover in the back.
There's a bit of a changing of the guard going on in D.C., with veterans Santino Quaranta, Clyde Simms, Marc Burch and Devon McTavish all gone. Brandon Barklage, Steve Cronin, Joseph Ngwenya and Jed Zayner all had their contract options declined as well, meaning that D.C. has plenty of holes to fill on its roster.
The biggest item to emanate from the bowels of RFK Stadium was the club passing on its option to purchase Charlie Davies' contract from Sochaux and ending his up-and-down tenure with the club.
Veteran defender Robbie Russell was brought in from RSL to stabilize things across the back line, and he is the first of what should be quite a few new faces in the United locker room come 2012.
Aside from purchasing the full rights to midseason midfield pickup Luiz Camargo, Houston has been rather dormant since reaching the MLS Cup final, but that doesn't mean that Dom Kinnear and his staff won't make some noise before the offseason is up.
The first item on the docket is finding a way to re-acquire Brian Ching, whom the club left unprotected for the expansion draft. Despite making threats he would retire if selected, Ching was taken by the Montreal Impact, putting Houston in a position to make a trade if it wants its captain back.
Hunter Freeman never made the impact expected upon his return to MLS and was subjected to the re-entry draft, where he was picked up by Colorado. Carlo Costly had his loan with the club expire without a new deal, and he returned to Atlas in Mexico, leaving room on the club's depth chart at forward.
Homegrown Player Francisco Navas Cobo was also shown the door, as were Jason Garey, Eddie Robinson and third-string goalkeeper Evan Newton.
Montreal hasn't entered the league silently, making a splash by taking Ching with its opening pick of the expansion draft.
From that point, it's seemingly been notable move after notable move for Jesse Marsch and his staff, who have integrated the likes of Donovan Ricketts, Zarek Valentin, Justin Braun, Bryan Arguez, Davy Arnaud and Patrice Bernier into the squad while also having a go at Chelsea's Nicolas Anelka before losing out in the bidding process.
The Impact began the roster-building process with the acquisition of former Inter Milan defender Nelson Rivas and Brazilian midfielder Felipe Martins, as well as NASL holdovers Ian Westlake, Sinisa Ubiparipovic and Hassoun Camara.
With the first pick in the upcoming MLS SuperDraft in tow, Montreal's offseason and roster construction are far from being completed.
The biggest moves the Revolution made this offseason were swapping out coach Steve Nicol for Jay Heaps and securing captain Shalrie Joseph to a Designated Player deal.
Aside from that, the Revs used the re-entry draft to their advantage, plucking Danleigh Borman, Nate Jaqua and Simms off the scrap heap. Borman and Jaqua have yet to sign with the club, though.
Among the names leaving New England include veteran defender Ryan Cochrane, midfielder Pat Phelan and Dube. 2011 imports Monsef Zerka, Rajko Lekic and Milton Caraglio also look unlikely to return to Gillette Stadium.
The Red Bulls have been awfully silent for a team accustomed to making the headlines. Perhaps the biggest moves have yet to be made, though. Despite claims from GM Erik Soler that neither Tim Ream nor Thierry Henry would be leaving the club, even for a loan, reports have both players making potential moves to the Premier League.
The Bolton-Ream link won't go away, nor will the buzz about Henry making a return to the Emirates to play for Arsenal on a short-term loan.
As far as the moves that have been made, the Red Bulls signed St. John's centerback Connor Lade to a Homegrown Player deal and cut ties with a number of players, including John Rooney, Chris Albright and Bouna Coundoul.
Plenty of question marks remain, including just who will be in goal considering German goalkeeper Frank Rost hasn't yet been brought back (although the club acknowledged it was in talks with him), and whether Rafa Marquez will return or be sold this winter.
Philadelphia hit the CONCACAF market hard, going after Costa Rican up-and-coming forward Josue Martinez and left back Porfirio Lopez in addition to Panamanian central midfielder Gabriel Gomez.
Philadelphia also managed to secure high-energy midfielder Nizar Khalfan in the waiver draft and signed Jimmy McLoughlin to a Homegrown Player deal.
The biggest losses for the Union came in the midfield, where Justin Mapp and Stefani Miglioranzi have left town, but the recent signings should certainly cover up for those departures.
If the Union or Impact haven't had the most newsworthy offseason so far in the conference, then Sporting KC has. The club brought in veterans Paulo Nagamura and Bobby Convey to change the culture of the midfield and re-acquired the services to left back Seth Sinovic after initially losing him in the expansion draft.
In order to get Sinovic back, SKC dealt captain Davy Arnaud to Montreal. Two Designated Player spots on the roster opened up as well, as Omar Bravo returned to Mexico with Cruz Azul, and Jeferson's loan from Vasco de Gama expired. Left winger Ryan Smith, who took a leave of absence from the club early last season, was dealt to Chivas USA.
Aside from trading for Jeremy Hall and signing Bermudan international winger Reggie Lambe, it's been a pretty quiet offseason for the Reds, who did most of their roster shuffling throughout the 2011 season.
The club parted ways with the likes of Javier Martina and Gianluca Zavarise, while losing Borman in the re-entry draft, but manager Aron Winter has a solid core of players who came together late last season in preparation for a run to the club's first postseason berth in 2012.
uh… Rost isn't being brought back? I thought that was still up in the air.
You missed the Dynamo not picking up Danny Cruz's option for next year. It doesn't assure his departure, but it makes it somewhat probable.
The Imperative Voice
I like what Montreal is doing and it will be interesting to see how the Ching gambit sorts out. I personally would let Montreal rot because Ching is overpriced for his production, but Houston is making brave noises that they won't be held hostage by Montreal, which suggests to me a period of typical Kinnear stubbornness followed by an Oduroesque training camp move to bring Ching back. I'm not a Hainault fan so I'd bluntly trade the Quebecois out for Ching to save salary and speed up the backline.
As Pepe suggests what the Dynamo do about likely GA grad Danny Cruz will be interesting. There's been talk of the Dynamo pursuing RWs and I'm not sure if that's intended to limit Cruz's salary ambitions or more intelligently a statement we want to upgrade the right side to be more complimentary of the left. Houston is a little too dependent on Davis and Colin Clark, while showing flashes, hasn't proven durable or everyday enough…….but if history says anything Houston will move in the summer — at the expense of early season mediocrity or outright suckiness — so they're best analyzed in August or September.
I think the Mendoza (13 G) and Davies (11 G) decisions may come back to haunt those teams. They may have subjectively underwhelmed per expectations, or outright offended, but goals aren't easy to come by in MLS. My team leaders had 5 goals, and a lot of the NT flavors du jour like Bunbury and Sapong had 5-9 goals. I don't think you just drop 1/3 to 1/4 of your goals out and snap, recover.
I also think KC is more ordinary of a team without Bravo. I think Bravo was the touch of class difference between competitive and mediocre.
NY looks unsettled as does DC.
Edwin in LA
That would be pretty dumb from Houston's part, he is the only natural right winger they have.
Watson can play there but he's a central midfielder and didn't do all that well on the right, even if they brought someone else to start Cruz is a good back up that is plenty serviceable. I thought he finished strong especially after that 2nd goal to secure the win in Portland when the Timbers were pushing really hard for tie
He just graduated from GA and would be very expensive. I'm sure Houston doesn't want to lose him, but it's probably not worth 140k a year for an inconsistent, injury-prone sometimes-starter.
The Imperative Voice
I agree that Cruz is overrated, I've seen nothing besides occasional flashes and a lot of running around. Can't hit a cross much better than Ashe and is marginally technical for the wing spot. I think you need more than hustle on the wing, just look at Brad Davis on the other side.
I think the key factor is he is coming off of GA and past experience was that Ianni was cast off when that happened. I think Kinnear's cheap and when the GA label disappears the formerly-labeled player tends to do so also.
The suggestion I've heard batted about is Cruz moved to RB to justify the expense, but I'm not sold by the similar Ashe experiment on the other side, because you end up with a mediocre hustling back who is sloppy in disribution. As a former back I am big on the "prime directive," I want to see shut down defenders who make clean passes from the back. Cruz doesn't convey that to me.
Davies had a high price tag to buy him ($1.3 mil). His inconsistency makes him almost as much of a gamble to buy as he was to acquire on loan at the beginning of last season.
But the Dynamo have no need for a RB. Hainault's got the position locked up (now that Cameron's at CB), and Sarkodie is the long term future there.
I checked EA FIFA 12, NY is fine right where they are. Best team in MLS.
I could see Montreal making the playoffs the first year right now. They have to beat out Chicago, Columbus, New England, NY, and Toronto. Yeah, long three months to go, but I could see Montreal making the playoffs.
The Imperative Voice
Houston lost the final because the defense could not hold for 90. The defense allowed a mediocre 41 goals, and Hainault, Boswell, and Ashe were often exposed during the season. Hainault in particular was repeatedly exploited by Chivas and KC in 3-goal drubbings. I think Hainault is slow and overrated. I prefer him to Boswell but I would keep looking.
[My personal preference is for athletic backs in the Olave/Cameron/Jermaine Taylor mold. I think Houston's defense has tended to prosper recently not because of Kinnear's favored stick figures, but when Cameron plays CB.]
I know the party line is Sarkodie is the future and we are so starved for defensive speed I found his ability to hold a flank refreshing — imagine that, a Houston defender who can't be easily beat to the endline — but in practice Zakuani abused him during one start and his distribution was awful….he was a wing back who wanted to pass the ball back inside to mids all the time. He looked out of his depth and disappeared for the balance of the season. Granted, the veteran Kinnear Dynamo is not the best place to develop, but I think he needs to grow just to be a safe starter. Because he wouldn't even start at Vancouver or NE long hitting telegraphed passes towards central midfield than can be picked off and run right at goal.
And just on a basic level, when you finish second, I don't think you can elevate to first without changes.
The Imperative Voice
My two cents I would not be surprised if Operation Shutdown was initiated. He started out very strong and then seemed to lose energy. He's working his way back into the sport — credulous version — or he got the idea DC was merely renting him and was balking at your price tag argument and decided to save his body for the long term — cynical version.
I would admit that we used to not pay transfers period, and $1.3 million is a tad steep, but if he was the Franchise maybe it would be worth it. There are players in that neighborhood on salary.
I dunno, for some reason Emilio comes to mind. DC gets really productive strikers in town and then doesn't keep them.
And the other 800 lb gorilla in the room not getting mentioned is DC's unstable franchise/stadium situation. Maybe Davies wanted a stable platform to work back up to the NT, and Sochaux is clearly not it — hopefully he escapes that nightmare — and DC was maybe a starting point, but maybe he wants a bigger scene or a more stable team. I worry about them playing at RFK. That can't last forever. There is an OldQuakes potential here.
August Spies
The Fire-zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Mr. Maxican
If Ching comes back to Houston it's gonna be in an orange power tie not a Dynamo kit.
As for Cruz not getting a reup is it by his design? Stu Holden was here for a mere 35k a year because he planned on moving on. maybe he is trying to do the same.
Also grade on the Dynamo picking up Nathan Sturgis?
No doubt Philly is the most improved….Look for Chicago and Sporting to try to keep up with moves shortly
No doubt Bravo was important and KC isn't happy to lose him but players go where they will, but you don't watch Sporting much if you think he was the touch of class difference.
He was a piece, a good piece but just a piece of the team. He had trouble keeping up with the relentless atheleticism of Kamara, Bunbury and Sapong.
KC will be money ahead to add a steller attacking mid fielder like they hoped Jefferson would be. But Jefferson just never adjusted to the MLS. With Bravo and Jefferson gone Sporting has a ton of room to go out and get what they need.

Genre: Romance
Autumn Reeser
Shawn Roberts
Antonio Cupo
Ron Oliver
Quality: HD []
Release: Feb 06, 2015
IMDb: 6.0
I must admit that I like Hallmark movies. This is a charming movie and it reminds me of the Bill Murray movie, "Groundhog Day" in which he relived that day over and over to get it right.
As the trailer and title (I do, I do, I do) from this movie implies, the leading lady gets to relive her wedding day over and over until she gets it right. At first she is bewildered as to what is happening, as well as those who are around her, which leads to her and those around her questioning her mental state. But when she finally realizes she is stuck in her wedding day she takes advantage of it. Without going into specific details it will suffice it enough to say this leads to some very funny and touching moments. Familiar Hallmark movie actors / actresses Autumn Reeser (main character), Shawn Roberts, Antonio Cupo and Ali Liebert lead the cast and they are a talented bunch, too. Shawn Roberts is familiar from some major Sci Fi movies and Ali Liebert is in her normal supporting role as Autumn Reeser's sister but she is talented enough to carry a movie on her own. This movie is well worth watching.

DT Henry Melton Henry Melton had a breakout year in 2012, registering 7 sacks, 9 quarterback hits, and 23 quarterback pressures and graded out as ProFootballFocus' 17th ranked defensive tackle. Heading into his 4th year in the league and a contract year, Melton, a 2009 4th rounder, is expected to get a larger role in the absence of guys like Amobi Okoye and Anthony Adams, who are no longer with the team. If he can keep it up in a larger role, he could emerge as one of the league's premier defensive tackles and the Bears might see him worthy of the relatively inexpensive defensive tackle franchise tag (7.9 million in 2012). Likelihood: Somewhat likely Brian Urlacher Urlacher is a future Hall of Famer, but he's aging and the linebacker franchise tag value (8.8 million in 2012) is inflated by the salaries of rush linebackers and thus non-rush linebackers rarely get tagged. After an offseason in which Curtis Lofton, Stephen Tulloch, and David Hawthorne got 27.5 million, 25.5 million, an...

Train - We Were Made For This Lyrics
Train – We Were Made For This Lyrics
I woke up on Angel Island in your arms
To the smell of burning bridges
And the sound of those alarms in my head,
We should have stayed in bed
But we held them up for ransom anyway
When the coldest days of winter were
The summers that we took aim at the Bay
And grateful wasn't dead
And like your lips were only made for me to kiss
Oh oh oh oh
We were made for this
While the girls all danced beneath a burning man
And the last waltz did somersaults to finish off the Band
Where they began in a wonder Winterland
All we ever wanted was to be alone
Learning how to fly to Sly, trying to find home
Underneath the Family Stone
And just like New Year's Day was made to reminisce
Oh oh oh oh
We were made for this
Love and stardust settle on us like a net
While Buckley's "Hallelujah" fills our ears from your cassette
While my heart stops beating, and you stop breathing, Juliette
You're the only thing I'm ever gonna miss
Oh oh oh oh
We were made for this

1939-40 Allan Cup
Originally Posted by
I finally got around to running the home/road splits on the incomplete save percentages numbers I presented for Bill Durnan last round, and wanted to slip it in just in case this is the last chance to discuss Durnan:
Home: 1800 Min, 576 SA, 51 GA, .911 Save %, 19.2 SA/60
Road: 1680 Min, 694 SA, 67 GA, .903 Save %, 24.8 SA/60
Home: 1920 Min, 663 SA, 64 GA, .903 Save %, 20.7 SA/60
Road: 1680 Min, 737 SA, 68 GA, .908 Save %, 26.3 SA/60
The fairly large shot differential (5.6 SA/60 in each season) does suggest the possibility of undercounting or inaccuracy in compiling the results, and therefore perhaps gives reason to be less confident in these numbers, although as some have noted home ice advantage was pretty significant back then. I think it remains unlikely that Durnan was dominant save percentage-wise in those seasons, despite playing on a very strong defensive team, which in addition to his short career,
underwhelming senior league record,
and the poor quality of opposition in the war years is why I still have him ranked relatively low in this round.
If we're going to massively adjust Johnny Bower's numbers because of shot quality against (which is probably the correct move), then it would stand to reason that Durnan should have a similar adjustment, and this evidence (limited and incomplete though it may be) does suggest that Durnan probably wasn't even as far ahead of the rest of the pack as Bower was, at least from 1947-48 to 1949-50.
Bill Durnan won the 1940 Allan Cup, 1 Allan Cup loss in 17 games, with the Kirkland Lake Blue Devils and went to the Allan Cup playoffs on three other occasions
Not many other goalies played on Senior teams that went to the Allan Cup playoffs in four consecutive seasons. Rather impressive record that was used as a plus for Durnan's career. Now you misrepresent his achievements. Why?

"If there's one thing I'll never be it's your brother Sasuke," I said. "If your planning on following in his foot-steps that's your business."
"Shut up!" He shouted and brought up a knee. Before it hit me I was pushed back.
"Take it easy on the new kid Sasuke," he said, the voice of reason. "For all you know he's better than you." Mused the Shinobi. It took me a second to guess his identity.
"You-your Kakashi!" I exclaimed. "The copy ninja!" He nodded slightly as a way of saying Iwas correct. "It's a pleasure to meet you, I acutually came here to talk to you."
"Really, about what?" He asked.
"Well, I'm a Uchiha and I here that your one of the most powerful sharingan users there is. I was wondering if you'd mind taking me in as a student." I explained.
"I'm a little full right no-." He began but I cut him off.
"You don't seem too understand." I exclaimed, letting a bit of fear into my voice, not quit sure if it was fake or real. "I need this!" He looked at me with his uncovered eye. Finally he said, "Let me see it."
I didn't need to ask what he meant by that. I had already closed my eyes. "Haven't done this in a while but here goes nothin', Sharingan!" My eyes opened and Sasuke gasped. Kakashi's eye got wide.
"Wh-what, why do you two look like that?" I asked before Sasuke attacked. He moved lightning fast with his punches and kicks. I saw the all coming before they hit. "Sasuke wha-?" I grabbed his fist and twisted his arm into a position known as the chicken wing.
I punched him in the stomach. He threw up.
"Mind explaining how you got the Mangekyou Sharingan," demanded Kakashi as he helped Sasuke.
"I came to train with you, not be forced to remember a past I tried to forget!" I shouted angrily.

Do you mean "repository creation and deletion" or "repository object creation and closing"? JSR 283, version 2.0, public review 2 July 2007, page 49 talks about "Repository Construction". > why is that an issue? When the application has to link to a specific class it is not possible to create wrappers (for example JCRLog). When the application links to an interface this is not an issue. >> JDBC > but this is about getting a connection and closing it again, which is > equivalent to obtaining a JCR session and logging out when your done. that's > already standardized in JSR 170. There is no 'Database' interface in the JDBC API, and applications don't need it. When using the JCR API, you first have to have to construct a Repository object to get a Session. Yes, closing a database is vendor specific. However it is still possible without having to cast to a specific interface or class, that means it is still possible to write a wrapper around the JDBC API. To close a database in HSQLDB and H2, you execute the SQL statement "SHUTDOWN". Apache Derby is a bit more complicated: you have to open connection with a special URL. But in all cases, you don't need to import any vendor specific interface or class. Regards, Thomas

The Checklist and Originator Certificate may be subject to amendment over time for reasons including market relevance and accuracy. The board of the PCS Association will have sole discretion over any changes to criteria but will have the ability to consult with the Market Committee over any changes. The Market Committee may propose changes to the Board of the Association
The PCS Process is fundamentally driven by the transactional law firm i.e. the law firm advising the Applicant
The transactional law firm prepares the central document: "the PCS checklist"
The transactional law firm must also draft the prospectus and Originator Certificate so that it allows the eligibility criteria/checklist to be screened against the prospectus and Originator Certificate
The prospectus is a document subject to securities law and supervision of listing authorities; the checklist will therefore have a sound legal underpinning
The PCS Process – Key Themes
The nine practical PCS Label Process steps are:

What's new in fashion trends for 2013? Beyonce will give you an (EYE) popping look.
From the renewed popularity of velvet, to the 2013 fashion trend predictions of what's coming. I can see Beyonce making this prediction true with an eye piece to match with it. Love the stand up ruffled collar…Fierce! We will be seeing and getting a feel of fashion that takes us back in time and yet takes us to the future. There are uniform styles that consist of great and smart separates which we will see in dark hues. We will get to see some geometric patterns that come in mixed colors of grey or blue jackets. The 2013 fashion trends may be interesting so we all have to wait and see. For the most part, I am predicting fashionable ideas that have never been done before. What are your 2013 fashion trend predictions?

The Bahnhofsviertel in Frankfurt – roughly translated into "scary red light district full of drunk men, junkies, dealers and women turning tricks' – is usually avoided by everyone who's in their right mind.
I used to live near Frankfurt before I moved to Berlin. The city never seemed remarkable or interesting to me, but I would always remember the Bahnhofsviertel as an obnoxious place. It's not like in Berlin, where the "bad stuff" just spreads all over the city. Here, it's centered in a realm of 3 or 4 streets. But time has passed, and the district I used to avoid has become a culturally evolving hub for artists, students and – ahem – "the scene".
At night the streets are lit in neon pink colors to advertise the sex shops, brothels, strip clubs and bars. The backdrop is the fantastic skyline of Frankfurt. During the Bahnhofsviertelnacht – an annual festival for the district – the streets are packed with people having a good time. Mosques, ethnic restaurants, churches, brothels – everything is open and on display.
Of course, the Bahnhofsviertel being trendy now – as the only affordable area in the city center – has not been met without controversy. Gentrification is an issue in Frankfurt as well. Art students from the Städl-Schule, creatives and party-goers all mingle in the Bahnhofsviertel now.
Remarkable places of interest are Plank, a bar in affiliation with the Robert Johnson Club in Offenbach, the Yok Yok Kiosk – a Späti, basically – , and the 25 Hours Levis Hotel, where I got to spent a wonderful night. In relations to Berlin, the Bahnhofsviertel has more in common with Oranienstraße than Simon-Dach, but it's still weird to see men and women – bankers – in suits mixed with the cool crowd. It's also ethnically mixed, much more than in Berlin. The scene does not only consist of Western Europeans and Germans. Many young, creative Afghanis, Arabs, Greeks and Turkish are part of the "cool" community as well. In that sense, the Berlin scene can definitely learn from its counterpart in Frankfurt. It's also interesting that quite many of these kids were born and raised in Frankfurt, while many people who are the leaders of the artistic / creative scenes in Berlin are usually from abroad (or other German cities). What gives?
I visited a couple of times in the last few months and decided to take a few shots of the surroundings. It turned out to be more difficult than I thought, considering that it's basically strictly forbidden. The privacy of the prostitutes has to be ensured as well as that of the johns. They congregate openly.

Family issues
I am suffering from anxiety since childhood. It's because I always used to follow my brother as a role model. He takes a lot of stress, over thinks ,and always remain in imaginary life. I never knew it and hence I copied his nature because he is very intelligent person. I am improving because I have been consulting with a psychiatrist but brother is becoming worse. He thinks a lot and he is not even want to do anything productive in his life. He doesn't want to meet people, get married, etc.(same like earlier me). He is reluctant to meet any psychiatrist. We live together which makes me tensed about him. He doesn't listen to me at all which results in fight. What should I do to not disturb my peace of mind and not to make him irritable because of daily disputes?

A New JobMature
Nien was a bit nervous. She would start working today if she got the job. She wasn't usually this concerned about things, but it wasn't just her anymore. She had a... well a family to look out for. She walked into the building and approached the receptionist.
"Hi. My name is Nien... I'm here to see Mr. Carter?" The receptionist shuffled a few pages, checked a schedule, and nodded.
"Yes that's right dear. Have a seat, and he will be with you shortly."
Nien nodded her thanks and choose the seat closest to the door. Three minutes later Mr. Carter came out. Nien liked him, he was a refreshing change from Joe and Madge. He was happy, kind, and didn't beat her.
"Ah Nien! It's good to see you! Come with me please." Nien tried to figure out what this meant. If she hadn't gotten the job would he bring her in? Would he have just dismissed her? She pushed the thoughts away from her head as Mr. Carter led her into his office. He motioned for her to sit down, and then took a seat himself.
"I'm not quite sure how to word this." Mr. Carter began somberly, and Nien's heart fell.
"Congratulations!" Her head shot up, and she saw Mr. Carter smiling trying to hold in laugh. He had been teasing her. Nien's look of horror and sadness melted into a smile and she began to laugh as well. "Thank you sir!" She exclaimed and pinched herself to make sure it was real.
It was.
Mr. Carter pushed a button on his desk and said, "Please send in Aaron to show Ms. Nien around." An affirmative came through the speaker and Nien's new boss turned back to her. "Aaron is going to show you your duties, and once he is done you can get right to work." Nien nodded and eagerly awaited Aaron's arrival.
There was a knock on the door. "Come in!"
The door slowly opened and Nien gave a little gasp. She hadn't seen many boys in her life, but she had seen enough to know that this one was pretty good looking. He had sandy blonde hair, very white teeth, a cute smile, and absolutely beautiful eyes. Mr. Carter was looking at her expectantly and she shook her head to clear her mind then asked "Could you say that again please?" Mr. carter smiled and said "If you are all set you may go with Aaron." Nien nodded, trying not to look at her new guide, and she stood.
"Thank you Mr. Carter." She said, then turned and followed Aaron out the door."

The End of the Frontier, 1816-1850 Epilogue: OThis Country of LibertyO Acknowledgments Essay on Sources Index
PressestimmenCayton's graceful, arresting narrative is grounded in primary and secondary sources, including classics by Emma Lou Thornbrough and Bernard Knollenberg, James Madison's The Indiana Way (CH, Jan'87), and new studies from such scholars as Richard White and Gregory Evans Dowd. Spanning 1700--1850 in ten chapters and an epilogue, Cayton's first-rate study interprets the successive worlds of the Miami (1700--1754), then of individuals whose experiences epitomized unfolding chapters of Indiana frontier history. With a keen ear for the revealing anecdote and apt quotation, the author treats the world of George Croghan (1750--1777); the village of Vincennes (1765--1777); the milieus of George Rogers Clark (1778--1787), Josiah Harmar, and John Francis Hamtramck (1787--1790); Little Turtle (1790--1795); Anna Tuthill Symmes Harrison (wife of William Henry Harrison, 1795--1810); Tenskwatawa (1795--1811); Jonathan Jennings (1800--1816); and the end of the frontier (1816--1850). Along the way readers discover figures such as John and William Conner, the early rivalry between Centerville and Richmond, an explanation of why Indiana remained a state of small towns and farms until the latter half of the 20th century, and the basis for understanding one of the more interesting states of the Union.

text: Throughout the Second World War, the Ministry of Information (MOI) flooded British magazines, newspapers, billboards and cinemas with informative and propagandistic material designed to instruct citizens about everything from spotting German anti-personnel bombs and using ration books to helping maintain national security ("Careless talk costs lives!") and avoid unnecessary travel ("Is your journey really necessary?"). The most effective and indelible were those shown week by week in every neighbourhood cinema programme and this wide-ranging, double-disc collection (which also includes films made in the first seven postwar years by the MOI's successor, the Central Office of Information) will bring back vivid memories to some of us and prove illuminating and entertaining to anyone interested in the war and social history. Sometimes subtle, frequently hectoring, almost always guilt-inducing, they use drama, humour, newsreel footage and animation to make their points and they tell us a lot about class, the manipulation of public opinion and life on the home front.

Madrid (Spain), Oct. 29 (ANI): Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has appealed for calm in the wake of Tuesday night's "humiliating" 4-0 Copa del Rey defeat to Segunda Division B side Alcorcon, insisting that new coach Manuel Pellegrini and his side need time to gel.
"There has to be calm and patience, even though the defeat in Alcorcon was humiliating. The history of Real Madrid is more than one game, which shouldn't be exaggerated or create unrest," The Mirror quoted Perez, as saying.
"Of course it's not nice for a president to see his team like that (against Alcorcon), but we are Real Madrid. The same as knowing how to win, we have to know how to lose and recognise that Alcorcon were better than Real Madrid. We need to congratulate the opposing players and try to turn the tie around," he added.
Perez's comments will be welcomed by coach Pellegrini, who has been facing questions about his future even though he only took harge of Madrid this summer and guided the club to seven successive wins at the start of the season before their current lip in form. (ANI)

My dearest Cats and Bats.. The end of the year is vastly approaching us. Do you have any regrets from this past year?
My only real regret is not shooting more. I want to become a SuicideGirl more than I can say, and me letting my health get the better of me, is not any excuse at all.
