inspired by Octavia Butler
They rejected her blood again. It wasn't because she'd had sex with a man who'd had sex with another man; she'd learn to lie on the forms about that a long time ago. Too low iron, even though she liked her leafy greens. Her life essence, it seemed, was only good enough for the mosquitoes.
Whatever. It would probably end up going to the vampires, anyway. There was another bank hold-up just last night; she'd seen on the local news. Those were actually rare nowadays. They didn't like exposing themselves to society like that, and it was easy to see why. Just look at what happened to the zombies. So they had gotten quite good at passing; she probably even knew some right now without realizing it. But sometimes an individual vampire was desperate enough to walk in, remove eir prosthetic teeth, and terrorize a poor blood worker. The NARVP would have a lot of public relations work to do.
Some people thought it didn't have to be this way. She'd heard of committed cross-species relationships, of exchanges being worked out: regular blood taking for security or even status in some circles. Some called it love. Strange how, to her, that and slavery often sounded alike. But her friend told her things like that had always happened in history. People used to sell their eggs, sperm, even wombs for money. The body is just another commodity. It's all economics.
But she still felt rejected. She was trying to give hers away for free, and they still wouldn't take it.
Spinach and a steak for dinner tonight.

Hadley: SelfishMature
I woke up after an hour and lay in bed for a while, eventually giving up and shuffling into the living room. I put the TV on and glanced at Maxxie, leaning out the window in the kitchen, having a smoke.
"Hey" he said.
I flashed him a tiny smile but kept silent, like before. Maxxie flicked his cigarette butt away and closed the window.
"I was thinking, while you were asleep... that maybe I could deal with the stress, if you wanna make it the end of March" he said, sounding a tiny bit nervous.
I didn't say anything.
"It's up to you, gorgeous. If you can deal with me, that is"
I still didn't say anything. Why was I having a hard time believing him?
"You realise if you do wanna have it the end of March, you better plan like fuck, 'cause I'm shit at that sort of thing"
I let out a tiny little sigh. "Look, I said I don't mind having it later. You don't have to rush things just to make me happy"
"I'm not. I was just being a selfish bastard earlier. It's your day too"
The two of us were silent for a while. It was fucking awkward.
"I'm being selfish by making you have it in March" I mumbled.
He sat down, cuddling me. "You're not"
"I am"
"No. I said you could pick the date and you did, so we'll stick with it"
I was quiet for a while again. "And you really mean it? You're not just saying it to make me happy?"
"Of course I mean it"
I launched myself at him, smothering him in tiny kisses. "Thank you, thank you, thank you"
He chuckled and hugged me, kissing back. I cuddled him, not really caring that it hurt my stomach.
"Seriously, thank you"
"It's okay" he smiled.
I smiled back. "You don't have to do any planning, if you don't want. I can handle it on my own"
"No, I'll help if I can" he pecked me on the lips.
I kissed back and he chuckled.
"You'll just have to tell me what I need to do"
"I'm gonna say the main thing you need is a venue, a suit and a best man" I giggled a little, waiting to see if he'd pick up on what I missed out.
He smiled. "I'd figured that much out. I was thinking we could get the wedding rings from the same place I got your engagement ring. I had a look at them while I was there"
"Maybe we should avoid your parents..."
"Mmm. We can order them online and avoid going to England altogether" he said with a small smile and I laughed a little. "I only went there to get your ring because I wanted to make sure it was the one I wanted you to have"
He kissed me and I kissed back, humming a little. He cuddled me, closing his eyes as I sighed contentedly. I snuggled up to him a little and he kissed my cheek.
I smiled. "I love you"
"I love you too" he smiled back.
I hummed and kissed him. He kissed back and I hummed again, snuggling.
"What do you even need for a wedding?"
"No idea. People and rings and cake, as far as I know" he chuckled.
"Reckon there'll be more than seven people there?" I asked with a tiny giggle.
He smiled. "Dunno. Might be"
"I don't know many people" Aside from Caleb, I pretty much have no friends.
"Me neither, but I kind of like the idea of a quiet wedding anyways"
I hummed. A quiet wedding would be kind of nice. It'd cost a hell of a lot less as well. Maxxie traced patterns in the nape of my neck and I shivered a little. He smiled and I giggled, kissing his jaw. He cuddled me a little tighter and I smiled, shutting my eyes.

Bangalore, Oct 22: On Wednesday, India's third largest IT service company Wipro Ltd announced a 36 pc growth in its revenue during second quarter ending Sep 30. The revenues increased to Rs 6507 crore and profit after tax grew by 19 per cent to Rs 978 crore.
Azim Premji, the Wipro chairman told scribes at a press conference in Bangalore that for the quarter the company delivered an excellent performance with IT services revenues at $1110 million, ahead of the guidance of $1089 million. Retail, transportation, manufacturing, healthcare and financial services business led the growth with strong performances during the quarter, he said. Profit before interest and tax for IT services segment was at Rs 996 crore, a growth of 30 per cent year on year basis.
"Our differentiated services of technology infrastructure services, testing services and package implementation continue to show good growth. Our leadership in India and Middle East business was further re-emphasised with another quarter of strong year on year growth," he said.
Wipro had won six multi-year multi-million Dollar deals during the quarter, Mr Premji added.
IT services business was added with 28 new clients during the quarter, while IT products recorded 50 per cent YoY growth in revenues and 34 per cent YoY growth in PBIT. Wipro consumer care and lighting business revenue grew by 42 per cent YoY and PBIT was up by 46 per cent YoY.
Wipro Executive Director and CFO, Suresh Senapathy, said the performance during Q2 was strong reflection of Wipro's ability to deliver operational efficiencies. "Rate and realisation of fixed price projects mix improved sequentially by 200 basis points and 100 basis points respectively. Our continued emphasis on driving utilisation through an integrated delivery model resulted in utilisation moving up by 240 bps," he said.
These strong gains on operational front helped the company to improve our margins in the IT services business in spite of affecting salary increases to the off shore employees during the quarter, he said.
Wipro had 97,552 employees as on Sep 30. This included 75,748 employees in IT services business and 21,804 in BPO business.
IT services accounted for 73 per cent of the revenue and 90 per cent of the PBIT for the quarter.
Consumer care and lighting segment recorded revenues of Rs 527 crore, a growth of 42 YoY and PBIT of Rs 64.3 crore, a growth of 46 per cent. PBIT to revenue was 12.2 for the quarter.
In the current global environment of liquidity challenges, cash provides excellent flexibility to persue strategic initiatives and business. With that objective, the Board had decided not to declare interim dividend.
The company entered into a large multi-million dollar deal with one of the largest financial services group in Middle East and Africa region to provide testing as managed services, a five year deal with a global consumer apparel company of the US, and strategic engagement with a major French Telecom company.

Wow poor Jasper, I feel so bad for him. I think this is going to be a hard road he has chosen to go down but I do understand why he's doing it. I love this story and I can't wait to read more.
| Sonja Whitlock chapter 4 . 1/28/2012
Talk about role reversal, poor Jasper has the weight of the world on his shoulders. I wonder what he will do if he ever comes across Maria again, or worse, she comes begging back because she misses the baby and realizes how good her life was while living with Jasper.

Fantastic introduction. When can I have towels delivered.

| krystal214 chapter 4 . 1/27/2012
I know this chapter was a semi-serious subject matter, especially the end, but the first time he had to actually do the deed was like a comedy show. I was laughing so hard, but these were my favorite lines:
"Would I ever be able to have sex again without assigning a monetary figure to the act? What if I ever got into a serious relationship, and in order to make love to my girl, she had to wave a few hundred my way?"
"But Lauren wasn't the only one that had me by the balls; the bill collectors had their hands down my pants too."
"'Whoring for Dummies' or 'How to be a Sexual Dominant' on the shelves at Barnes and Noble...I would Google it later..."
"Hadn't this bich ever heard of Kegel?"
Come on, where did you come up with that stuff,you evil genius? That was hilarious. Of course you killed my happy buzz a little at the end with the sadness and disgust, but in a good way. Loved this chapter. It might have been my favorite one so far, aside from the sex with Bella, of course.

MartinLogan Helos 12, Helos 22 In-Ceiling Speakers Shipping
The Helos 12 and Helos 22 in-ceiling speakers feature a stealthy, sleek bezel design and include one 6.5-inch midrange/bass cone with extended throw driver assembly and thermal protection.
Arlen Schweiger · March 29, 2013
In-ceiling loudspeakers are becoming more and more pleasing to both the eyes and ears.
From the aesthetic point of view, companies are now offering in-ceiling models that are barely noticeable - after all, the point of architectural speakers is that you don't really want them to be seen, only heard.
Toward that end, the new Helos 12 and Helos 22 in-ceiling speakers from MartinLogan are not completely invisible (some in-ceilings can be painted over so they really just look like part of the ceiling finish) but they feature a sleek bezel-less design to help them look pretty stealthy.
But don't let the looks fool you. Under the frame-less grilles is a wealth of technology that includes MartinLogan's proprietary Vojtko crossovers for what the company says helps produce low distortion and seamless driver integration. It's used in the company's vaunted and beautiful electrostatic freestanding loudspeakers for which MartinLogan is renowned.
These additions replace the Helos 10 and Helos 20 models, and have the same neodymium soft-dome tweeters and high-rigidity aluminum cone woofers, the company says. The Helos 12 includes a single 1-inch pivoting tweeter that can be aimed toward the listening destination for improved performance, while the Helos 22 serves up single-point stereo sound with a pair of 3/4-inch tweeters.
MartinLogan says both models include one 6.5-inch midrange/bass cone with extended throw driver assembly and thermal protection.
On the outside, the company says the ultra-low-profile grilles for the Helos 12 and Helos 22 can also be painted for near-invisible blending into the ceiling, while a magnetic system secures them easily into place.
The Helos 12 run $299 each and the Helos 22 are $399 apiece.

2011/2012 srt-8
hi all new member just saying hello....would like to know if anyone has any insight if jeep will build new srt-8..thanks rob
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
its very much possible...but no word yet.
Stay here for the latest info....
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
just posted this on another thread, so I will add it here
Hey all
Still new here, but I can shed a little insight on this. I work for the ocean carrier that imports Chrylser, Saab, Volvo, Mercedes, BMW, Rolls, Jag, Land Rover etc (all new commercial units).
I was also in the market to buy a SRT in 2011 but several months ago, I was talking to one of the reps from Chrysler and because of the new GC11 models coming out, total revamp of the GC, adding the SRT was not in something they wanted to deal with. For one instance, the price of the SRT would have increased about 35-45,000. Most consumers would not buy a 85-95,000 Jeep SRT, unless of course you were a Prince from another country.
Secondly, Jeep is pushing the new models to show not only the consumer but the US Gov they the can in fact upgrade the models with less gas emmisions and keep it afforable for the public.
Third, launching the SRT with the new GC model would in fact down play all the new production teams ideas and set Chrysler back.
So if you are in the market for a SRT like I am and can hold a bit, the new models should (if all goes correctly) start showing up around mid 12 or so.
One a side note, there are still numerous dealers who have a large inventory of SRT's so when the new GC's come out and if you search hard enough you should be able to get a very good deal one.
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
I seen something on WKjeeps.com that said an SRT is possible for 2012 with a more powerful Hemi making over 500? HP. Whatever the exact numbers where it was a huge increase over that the SRT makes now which is like 435? Either way I wont be able to afford a 2012 since im sure prices will increase by at least a few grand so I might have to settle for a new old stock or used WK1 SRT when I get the money.
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
From what I have heard and read they may offer several versions. An engine with the with the 420, one with 5 and possibly a 6 hundred horsepower engine. Of course the 6 would be a special order and limited run, but if they continue with the norm, it will still be around the same price. The 5+ horse would only run you a few grand more.
Its actually a good thing because SRT designers as well as Chrysler are paying attention to what SRT fans want. They see the mods that are being made and here the suggestions that we are making. Of course Chrysler will cash in on it, but for those who dont know much about modifying a stock car or have the time to put add ons to your factory SRT this is a great addition.
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
bagwell, your info is piss poor.
SRT group will NOT offer three separate engine choices. I repeat, they will NOT offer three separate engine choices.
Good day
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
they will only offer the 6.4 If they do any other tuning for special packages it would be something beyond the norm for the SRT group
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
Yup if anyone I would say this site would be first to know. We have many active members that are wondering the same thing....
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
- 6.4L with MDS for all SRT8 models with auto transmission.
- 6.4L without MDS for the SRT8 Challenger 6-speed manual.
Re: 2011/2012 srt-8
Hmmmmm!!! Very interesting.

A Small Shift
Usually in the afternoon you would find Ron by the (indoor) pool, showing off for the pretty girls who would gather there. Since he was the second son of the Keykeep, the community leader, he was already an attractive prospect, so getting attention was never a challenge. But it was because he was the son of the Keykeep that this afternoon he was not beside the pool, flirting with Laura or Abby, his favourites at the moment. What Ron was doing was walking purposely through the common rooms, searching for a certain young boy.
Ron entered a narrow hallway and slowed, noticing the tussled chestnut hair of a boy, about nine years old, who was playing jacks. Trying to make his footsteps sound casual on the hardwood, Ron walked forward and sat down on a step nearby. He leaned forward, feigning interest in the solitary game.
"I used to play that when I was your age," he offered.
Sam looked up, clutching the ball and three jacks in his hand. "That must have been a long time ago," he said seriously.
Ron bit his tongue. Mother said, don't antagonize the boy, just learn what you can about the key.
"I see you're wearing a key," Ron said. He gave an easy smile as he studied the key hanging around the boy's neck.
"Yah," said Sam, bouncing the ball once again.
"It's a pretty small key isn't it," said Ron. "Not like mine, which is real big and fancy." Ron displayed the ornate key lying against his chest.
Sam looked at Ron in disgust. "I'm not four."
Maybe it was sarcasm the first time.
"I wonder where you found that key. I've never seen one like it before. I bet you found it pretty recently."
Sam shrugged, focusing on the game. Ron waited a few minutes, but Sam continued to ignore him. This kid isn't going to tell me anything.
Ron sauntered down the hallway, then sped up as he turned into a library and from there to a small kitchen. He knew the rooms of Great Hall community as well as he knew how to count, or the best way to polish a key. His steps were almost automatic as he took the fastest route back to the Great Hall, worrying about his mother's reaction. At least I know where the boy is. The men from Downstairs haven't found it yet. But mother won't be pleased.
He reached to his right to touch the next doorframe, the one leading to the Great Hall and stopped in surprise. His hand brushed the stone wall, sending a chill through the bones of his fingers. The doorway was slightly to the left, hardly any different. Perhaps in his worry about the boy, not paying attention, he had misjudged. Ron put the thoughts aside as he donned a smile and entered.
At the far end of the Great Hall his mother and a circle of councillors rested on cushions.
"Strange things have been happening," one man said. "I am certain our bedroom used to be just a little larger…"
Ron approached the Keykeep and the conversation ended.
"What have you learned, son?"
Back in the hallway, Sam kept on playing jacks, oblivious to the universe beginning to shift.

Disclaimer: I think I've finally come to grips with reality long enough to say that Lord of the Rings does not belong to me…
(A/N- Oh no, I'm not doing another LIST of God Knows What, am I??? Well, hold on to your socks, people, because another one of my pointless lists is headed your way…)
You Know You're Obsessed With Lord of the Rings When:
20. You have officially been labeled as the weird kid in all of your classes, because instead of cursing, you use such exclamations as "Balrog Droppings!" and "O Sweet Lord of the Rings!"
19. You and your sister (or friend) memorized the entire Green Dragon song that Merry and Pippin sing, and you have a dance routine to match!
18. You can't watch Lord of the Rings without dressing up like one of the characters. (Seriously, that's the only way to watch it.)
17. You spent an hour practicing your elvish penmanship instead of writing that report for Environmental Science.
16. You were so excited when you found out that the cutest guy in your class had read Lord of the Rings, until you found out that he had read up to part 4 in the Book of Lost Tales, and you had only just finished part 1. Then you proceeded to lock yourself in your room for hours reading The Book of Lost Tales Part 2, because you were determined not to be out Tolkien-ed by some pretty boy.
15. You bought a bunch of plants and named them after Ents.
14. You then felt the need to read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings out loud to your plants, because you felt that they should learn where their names came from.
13. When you informed your dad that he was not to refer to your bonsai tree as "that plant" but rather by her proper name "Fimbrethel" he asked you who that was, and when you told him it was the name of an Ent, he asked you what an ent was. You then stared at him in horror, embarrassed to have him as a dad, and proceeded to recite the entire history of Ents for him.
12. Upon realizing that you didn't have any butter or flour for the Lembas bread that you were about to make, you decided that you'd walk to the nearest market, except that it was pouring rain outside. Even though your parents offered to drive you, you insisted that it was your "mission…quest….thing" and that it needed to be completed by you. So you ended up walking a half a mile to get there, and a half a mile back, in rain that was sometimes past your ankles, just so that you could refer to yourself as the Fellowship because the "Council of Elrond" entrusted you with that task. Then, when you got back home, you dressed up like an elf, listened to the Lord of the Rings soundtrack and baked Lembas bread.
11. You drew a picture of the Gates of Moria, stuck it on your bedroom door, and refuse to answer it for anyone who doesn't say "mellon" when knocking. (Even though you didn't tell anyone that they were supposed to say that, so only your Lord of the Rings obsessed sister can gain access to your room.) When your parents asked what that weird drawing on your door was, you replied with something like, "It's quite simple. If you are a friend, just speak the password, and the doors will open," in your best Gandalf impersonation. You were then greeted with blank looks.
10. You read so much Tolkien, that if your friends see you without a book written by him, they become seriously concerned about you.
9. You cry every time you read The Breaking of the Fellowship, or at the end of The Return of the King every time you watch/read it. (And I mean EVERY TIME.)
8. You'd give anything to live in Middle Earth, even if it was for just one day.
7. Your friends can now tune you out very well, because they are so used to you going on and on (and on and on) about Tolkien's symbolism, and Tolkien's books, and Tolkien's life, ect.
6. Instead of your parents grounding you, they take away your Lord of the Rings DVDs. You then shout, "Cruel men hurts us, my precious!"
5. You've written fan fiction for Lord of the Rings. (Let's face it, who hasn't?)
4. When someone asks you who J.R.R. Tolkien is, you almost have a heart attack.
3. You find yourself writing essays and reports about Tolkien or his work….in elvish….just for fun.
2. You're re-reading Lord of the Rings, and even though you've seen the movie more times than you can count, and have already read the books more than everyone else you know put together, you still get sucked in every time. In fact one time, you stayed up so late re-reading The Two Towers that you fell asleep during your Algebra mid-term the next day. (Try not to drool on the test, it doesn't go down well with teachers, trust me.)
1. While reading this, your thinking "What?!?!!? This person thinks THEY'RE obsessed? I've done WAY more crap than that…"
(A/N- Thanks for taking the time to read. BTW, if you actually WERE thinking that you'd done worse stuff than me... tell me, I'd love to hear it!)

For years, I had no compelling reason to keep an appointment diary. If I needed to know what I was doing on a given day in the future, I would just look in my wife's diary.
"Why is the last week of July crossed out?" I would say.
"We're going on holiday," she would say.
"Ah," I'd say. "Anywhere nice?"
"You'll be told nearer the time."
But for Christmas I was given a black book titled "2014", which came with an implicit instruction: "Take charge of your life."
Not long after, I was asked to appear at a literary festival in mid-spring. I don't do a lot of this sort of thing, but the prospect of spending an hour talking about myself appealed to me.
"I'll have to consult my diary," I said to the organiser. Actually, I was talking to the email she sent me, but at that point I was new to forward-planning.
I found to my surprise that I'd already scribbled some words around the date in question: the band I'm in had gigs on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday, in Oxford, Newbury and Nottingham. The literary festival was in Chipping Norton. I calculated timings and distances. From a vantage point several months in advance, it didn't look like a logistical nightmare, just an efficient way to use up a future weekend. I took charge, and said yes.
There was one bit of arithmetic I forgot. I should have subtracted my birth year from the year of the book, and calculated how a man that age would feel at the end of such a weekend. As it turns out, I already feel that way on Saturday, when I wake up in my own bed after getting home from Oxford at 2am.
"Is today a good day to retile the bathroom?" says my wife, at 8am.
"Today doesn't count as a day," I say. I don't understand her urgency: some of the tiles that need reaffixing fell off five years ago. They have been saved and neatly stacked, along with a dozen more recent fallers, on the floor on my side of the bed.
The secret of good tiling, I find, is unwavering fussiness: thorough surface preparation, straight cutting, and a tireless eye for the slightest misalignment. On no account should your brain be screaming, "Tile faster!" because you're meant to be in Newbury in two hours with a drum kit in the back of your car. I tile like the wind, and it shows.
Twenty-four hours later, I am alone in a car park, the adrenaline from my recent festival appearance draining rapidly from my system, bone weary and brain dead, the underside of my fingernails still rimmed with grout. I ring my wife to commiserate, but she's got friends over for lunch. Most of what she says is for their benefit.
"I don't know why he's calling," she says. "He never calls. He's just showing off because you're here."
"I didn't know they were there," I say.
"I have no idea where he is," she says. "Where are you?"
"Chipping Norton," I say.
"I never know where he is," she says.
Two hours later, full of coffee and sugar, I am arguing with the sat nav somewhere south of Nottingham.
"In 200 yards, keep left," it says.
"There's a new roundabout ahead," I say, "of which you clearly know nothing."
"In 100 yards, keep left," it says.
"It has five exits," I say. "Your advice is meaningless."
"Keep left," it says.
I circumnavigate the roundabout twice, before selecting an exit at random. "Who's in charge now?" I shout.
The sat nav is lost for words.

US Adopts Law against Iran's Influence in Latin America
US President Barack Obama has signed a law designed to counter Iran's alleged influence in Latin America, through a new diplomatic and political strategy to be designed by the State Department.
The Countering Iran in the Western Hemisphere Act, passed by US lawmakers earlier in 2012 calls for the State Department to develop a strategy within 180 days to "address Iran's growing hostile presence and activity" in the region.
Although the strategy is confidential and only accessible to lawmakers, it must contain a public summary, international media reported.
The text also calls on the Department of Homeland Security to bolster surveillance at US borders with Canada and Mexico to "prevent operatives from Iran, the IRGC (Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps), its Quds Force, Hezbollah or any other terrorist organization from entering the Untied States."
And within Latin American countries, the text provides for a multiagency action plan to provide security in those countries, along with a "counterterrorism and counter-radicalization plan" to isolate Iran and its allies.
The US government has made it clear that it is closely monitoring Iran's activities in Latin America, though senior State Department and intelligence officials have indicated there is no apparent indication of illicit activities by Iran.
Iran, placed under a series of international sanctions because of its suspect nuclear program, has opened six new embassies in Latin America since 2005 - bringing the total to 11 - and 17 cultural centers.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has made regular visits to Latin America, though he only toured the region twice this year. Iran has close ties with Bolivia, Ecuador and Venezuela.

text: Asha was a bit off colour at the weekend, she vomited a couple of times, and had diarrhoea. We noticed that male dogs, even our neutered boy were very keen on sniffing her even though she'd finished her season 10+ days previously. Today she's worse. She didn't want breakfast, had been sick again, and was very lethargic, quiet and her poo still very loose and indoors, which she doesn't do. I wiped her vulva with a tissue, and there is a dry looking rusty coloured staining. It's not a wet discharge, just looks a bit like dried blood. She has had a bath since her season, so it's not leftover residue. Also her vulva is still swollen but that's probably normal. This season she has been a nightmare - she has flirted outrageously with my neuter boy, and it went on for ages. She was almost nympho! I took her to the vet, he's not convinced it's pyo, but he is going to treat as if it is, she had an antibiotic injection and tablets to start tomorrow. If she's any worse in the morning she has to go in and be put on a drip, have a scan etc. We want to avoid surgery if possible as she has a very bad heart (which is the only reason why she's not spayed). She doesn't have the excessive thirst, in fact is hardly eating or drinking. She is only 3, and it is very soon after the end of the season, only around 10 days. Does this sound like it could be pyometra? What else should I look out for? I've read the sticky, it seems like everyone has a slightly different experience so wonder what your thoughts are. Thanks.

"Teachable Moment"? How about teaching those kids police respect, teach the parents as well. Ignore the administration, they have no common sense.
This is a discussion on Cop asked NOT to wear uniform and gun when around students??? within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; Arizona police officer asked not to wear uniform at daughter?s school | Fox News I would say, someone just please tell me a school principal ...
Arizona police officer asked not to wear uniform at daughter?s school | Fox News
I would say, someone just please tell me a school principal was not this stupid, but what I can say is that around ten years ago I had a woman look at me, in a full police uniform, at a Middle School, and say, aghast, "You have a gun!" I told her, "Why yes, yes I do, because I am a cop....in uniform."
She looked at me with those glazed over Liberal eyes and I swear, this is what she said, "Well, don't you think that by carrying a gun into the school you are encouraging the kids to carry guns into the school!?"
I had absolutely no answer that did not include terms that would get me fired, so I just gave her that look that I use to convey, "You're obviously an idiot," and walked away from the gape jawed, vacuous, black hole of stupidity that she created......
Now I fear for our country even more when this kind of idiocy can cause the school to actually ask a uniformed police officer to NOT be there to drop off their child.

Well, we cant very well expect people to understand LE, if we dont also try to understand them. No one get me wrong. I think this is sheer stupidity.
However, in "teacher speak", or school speak, offering up a "teachable moment", is a way of saying they screwed up, and trying to put it right.
Wonder what a semi armed police officer looks like.A district spokeswoman told the station that "some parents" voiced concern about seeing a fully armed police officer on the school's campus.I hope he shows up "fully armed" for it.They invited the officer to a special assembly to talk about what police officers do for the community.

I wonder who that Admin will call when their is a "Bomb Threat", Intruder Alert", "Psycho Shooter", Bad Pop Tart, etc.
When I was in uniform, I did the "DARE" classes at the various schools, armed per policy (it was NOT a choice).
I used to pick my kids up at times in plainclothes with Open Carry (w badge on belt), attended countless parent-teacher conferences the same way and never heard a peep.
If Principle doesn't like LEOs wearing uniforms and sidearm, they should contact their State Congress Reps. (My self, I would have demanded to speak the the school Superintendent, immediately.... or a School Board Member if the Super was not readily available) then, I would have requested a supervisor to the location, immediately.
This is a serious and "Official Request" by a School District Officer.
My wife is a retired School Admin and I'm retired State Trooper.... we'd have put that admin's career on permanent hold, at the very least.

Atomic Threats: North Korea escalates production of uranium and plutonium nuclear fuel, while Iran is "preserving nuclear capabilities," says the U.S. intelligence chief. "Tough-minded diplomacy" fails, absent U.S power.
Back in 2007, when candidate Barack Obama was wowing the left's opinion mavens with his supposedly intellectually rigorous foreign policy plans, he treated North Korea and Iran as identical challenges.
In his much-celebrated article in Foreign Affairs magazine that year, then-Sen. Obama wrote: "We must develop a strong international coalition to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and eliminate North Korea's nuclear weapons program" because "Iran and North Korea could trigger regional arms races, creating dangerous nuclear flashpoints in the Middle East and East Asia."
How? "Our first measure must be sustained, direct, and aggressive diplomacy -- the kind that the Bush administration has been unable and unwilling to use."
Today, North Korea has apparently advanced to the hydrogen bomb, and the U.S. has formally allowed Tehran to keep a permanent and swift nuclear weapons construction capability.
President Obama has had over seven years now for a task he called a "must." But in 2016, all these years later, Obama's director of national intelligence, James Clapper, testifies to the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday that North Korea has expanded its Yongbyon plant for uranium enrichment and has restarted a plutonium reactor shut down in 2007 that could produce nuclear weapons fuel "within a matter of weeks to months."
North Korea could have as many as 100 nuclear bombs less than five years from now, plus, as Clapper warned, it's developing an ICBM missile to carry them to the U.S. homeland.
Obama's plan? Ignore it, it seems.
North Korea apparently detonated an H-bomb on Jan. 6, but in his State of the Union speech to Congress last month, the president pretended it never happened. "We didn't particularly feel compelled to give" Kim Jong-un "that attention," Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes explained.
Go to the White House website, type in "North Korea," and up comes a video of the president from May 2009 reacting to the A-bomb test Pyongyang had conducted hours earlier by promising that "we will work with our friends and our allies to stand up to this behavior."
The second item that comes up is a notice from last June that Obama is once again renewing for another year a June 2008 George W. Bush executive order that declared "a national emergency with respect to North Korea."
Rhodes is perfectly accurate: We are aren't giving the North Korea nuclear threat any attention.
On the diplomatic front, a U.S. under Obama that has lost two wars has seemingly zero clout with Communist China, the nation with the most leverage over North Korea because it provides most of its food, fuel and trade.
Does Obama believe Kim Jong-un is simply too fanatical? He had his own uncle-by-marriage, four-star Gen. Jang Song-taek, executed after all. But the Iranians are fanatical enough to believe the 12th Imam will soon lead an apocalyptic holy war against America and Israel, and yet Obama spent endless months negotiating a deal with them, which they never had to sign. In it, the U.S. ultimately relented and tolerated Tehran's ability to build nuclear weapons, and build them fast.
The "Worldwide Threat Assessment" accompanying Clapper's testimony features this astonishing post-Iran deal conclusion: "Iran does not face any insurmountable technical barriers to producing a nuclear weapon, making Iran's political will the central issue."
The president, who in 2007 promised that his untried diplomatic skills would denuclearize both North Korea and Iran, had by 2016 substantially escalated both of these fanatical terrorist powers' atomic threats to America.

Over the past few years the Detroit Police Department has gained quite the reputation for raiding afterhours establishments illegally and ticketing near everyone in attendance; they're even facing a lawsuit for it. However, it seems that the tides have changed and Detroit Police may have gotten it right this time. Perhaps the real problem with these "rave" style events lies with the event host and underage patrons.
According to people who attended an event called "OUTTA TOWN OUTTA MIND" at the Exotic Zone Gallery located just a few miles from Wayne State University, police raided the building around 1:50 a.m. on January 30th because neither the building owner nor the event host, Dubstep Grand Rapids had the proper permits for the event.
Once inside, police discovered several people with open containers of alcohol and dozens of underage patrons who were under the influence. Police executed breathalyzers and issued Minor in Possession citations (MIPs) to anyone under the legal drinking age of 21 that was found to have alcohol in their system.
(Picture has been temporarily removed at request of Facebook user.)
While the event was for those who are 18 years or older and Dubstep Grand Rapids did not directly provide alcohol to minors, some people are still severely questioning the ethics of the electronic music group because of the "deal" they offered to those ticketed by police.
In the days following the Detroit Police raid, Dubstep Grand Rapids announced via its facebook page that they would compensate those who received an MIP by giving them a 30% discount on all shows and events for one year if they simply emailed them a picture of their citation. The announcement generated tons of feedback from underage patrons, many praising the group and leaving some to wonder if the company gave the wrong message to teens and young adults.
One facebook user by the name of Ashley* posted, "If following the rules means paying twice as much and not even having a good time…sh*t I'm happy I got an MIP…"
Another facebook user by the name of Karly* posted, "Uhm, I blew a .023, and still got an MIP. That sh*t was totally worth it though…it was awesome and now we get into raves for free, for a year?!?! TOTALLY worth it…"
One must wonder if Dubstep Grand Rapids may have made an error in judgment by trying to compensate those who received MIPs. Rather than apologize for not receiving the proper permits and ending the night early, the group rewarded minors for breaking the law. Furthermore, patrons who were of the legal drinking age must feel a bit slighted, as they did not receive the same discount on upcoming shows and are almost penalized for following the law.
It's important to note that Detroit Chic is dedicated to local art and entertainment and fully and wholeheartedly supports all local artists. However, as a writer and an artist I respectfully assert my opinion that rewarding people for breaking the law sends a bad message to teens and young adults and can't help but to encourage all groups and artists to be mindful of the message they send because after all, art – particularly music is a very powerful medium.

WYDaily.com is your source for free news and information in Williamsburg, James City & York Counties.
Four years ago, Rick Ivey was flipping through a local magazine when he came across an advertisement about Literacy for Life, a program that assists adults in need with reading, writing, and language skills. Ivey felt compelled to sign up as a volunteer.
"The ad was inspiring to me," Ivey recalls. "Literacy is also personal to me. Growing up, I had a grandmother who couldn't read or write. Even as a small child, I could see the challenges she faced, even with life's daily chores."
So Rick decided to help others improve their literacy skills. He began dedicating his time to Literacy for Life as an instructor, teaching a conversation class for English as a Second Language (ESL) students. Class attendees ranged from young adults fresh out of high school to retirees from varying national and cultural backgrounds.
Discussions during the class geared toward American history, government, civics, and culture.
"The students had a real thirst to learn about America," Ivey says.
The course evolved into one specifically about the history of the United States and remains one of the more popular classes at Literacy for Life. Ivey continues to teach the class, which is one-year long. Between 15-20 students turn out each week for a 90-minute session.
"We work our way through American history from Columbus to Barack Obama," Ivey says.
As Ivey's involvement with Literacy for Life grew, he began to notice some of the struggles of the program's participants due to their lack of literacy skills.
Some of his students had a hard time finding work because of the literacy barrier, so last year, Ivey helped develop a career readiness course for Literacy for Life. He used his background as a sales executive with Forest Productions, where he worked closely with staff on recruiting, hiring, training, and mentoring employees for 30 years before retiring in 1999.
The career readiness class offers tips on where and how to look for work; how to read a job description; how to write a resume; how to dress and what to do during a job interview; and how to network.
"We've had people who've found work as a result of the skills and strategies they've learned in the class," Ivey says with a smile. "There is no better feeling than to see the students succeed."
Ivey was named Literacy for Life's Volunteer of the Year in 2015 for his role with the program, but he remains humbled by it.
"Whatever I do here is a labor of love," Ivey says. "I was honored to be chosen, but it's a real team effort. We have a really great staff here."
He loves the students just as much.
"It's all about the learners for me," he says. "They make it all worthwhile. They put so much effort into it. I get back so much more than I give."
Roughly 300 volunteers help more than 800 learners at Literacy for Life. Ivey hopes to be a part of the program for as long as he can and would love to have others involved. Just like the students, instructors and tutors come from all backgrounds and all walks of life.
"I am delighted to be a part of Literacy for Life," Ivey says. "It's the most rewarding thing I've ever done."

Posted on 12/19/2008 7:01:17 PM PST by Free ThinkerNY
Ever wonder what terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden might look like if he shaved his trademark beard and turned in his robes and camouflage for a western business suit? Well, apparently so did the intelligence analysts at the National Counterterrorism Center. In their popular annual desk calendar, just received at Whispers, a page about the al Qaeda leader features an altered photograph, showing a neatly trimmed bin Laden in a dark suit and tie, looking more like a used-car dealer than a guerrilla fighter.
(Excerpt) Read more at usnews.com ...
0se looks like a clean cut Elvis.
He looks like the guy that yelled and me for stealing a slurppee once
He is disguised as a pile of crow and jackel dung near Tora Bora.
With a good shave and dressed in drag, I'd say he could give Nancy Polosi a pretty close match. He'd still have to work on getting that death-tone complexion though.
OK, come clean my keyboard! BAHAWAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
Hey! That's our new salesman at Explosives 'R Us!!
I bought a tank of gas and 2 packs of smokes from this guy here in Michigan today. HONEST!
I would never recognize him shaven.
Looks like an older Barry O' to me.
Bet he shows up at the inauguration in a burkha disguise. If you see a burkha in DC around Jan 20, 2009 double check the identity of the person inside.
Kill it before it multiplies.
Still bugugly.
I think he runs a falafel stand in D.C. or is that Marion Barry?

most if not all the spammable attacks are easy to avoid but that doesn't mean it's fun to fight those kinds of people, I would like to have an epic battle where my opponents and I are giving it all we got, I want my opponent to put as much effort into the fight as me.

Let's be real this game doesn't have much strategy, I don't care how anyone talks about the different moves they do or their skills. I see people doing the exact same thing until they get supers and try to get kills. Sackboys and Radecs try to get away to spam. While melee characters spam in your face. You can win matches using one button, I do it ask the time with Radec I don't even try to do anything else some matches just ruin and snipe. Kratos only had to use square that's the same with most other melee characters. I so wish I had gotten Hitman instead of this, and like a dummy I downloaded it so I can get anything for it.

In today's volatile economy, people are increasingly shying away from the stock market and seeking safe investments that provide positive interest income over a shorter duration. Many are discovering that marketplace loans represent a significant opportunity to generate an attractive level of income.
Whether you're a sophisticated investor, registered investment advisor (RIA) or just a hobbyist, marketplace lending may be the investment option that you have been looking for to diversity your portfolio.
The benefits of investing in marketplace loans include:
Individuals who invest in marketplace lending loans can earn an estimated 5-9% net return (after adjusting for fees and defaults). These loans tend to perform better than more traditional types of fixed-income products such as corporate government and emerging market bonds.
Marketplace lenders make it easy to diversify across many loans to reduce risk and drive solid returns. In increments of $25 of more, people can invest in a number of loans (or portions of loans).
Typical marketplace lending loans are offered in terms of 3 to 5 years. With no pre-payment penalties for the borrower, the effective duration of the loans could be less.
Investing in marketplace loans is easy. Investors can choose to use an automated tool, which runs a search for specific types of loans, or manually find loans that match a desired risk tolerance.
Well diversified portfolios of marketplace loans have consistently performed during times of stock market volatility and rising interest rate environments. These loans have also performed well during times of both high and low unemployment rates.

BT is on the slide on renewed concerns about its pension deficit.
A weekend report said a three yearly review of the telecoms group's scheme was likely to show a 50% jump in the deficit to around £6bn. So BT would have to increase its contributions, which could leave it with less cash to spend on its battle with BSkyB over sports rights, according to the Sunday Times.
The news has sent BT shares 10.8p lower to 383.5p, making it the biggest faller in the FTSE 100. The earlier occupier of that unwelcome position, Smith and Nephew, has recovered some ground despite potential predator Meditronic turning its attentions elsewhere. Smith and Nephew is down 6p at £10.65, having fallen as low as £10.35.
Elsewhere Rolls-Royce has dropped 23p to 997p as analysts at Societe General moved from hold to sell and cut their target price from £10.70 to 950p, ahead of an investor day on Thursday. They said:
A detailed agenda has not yet been released but the company has indicated that senior management will discuss the group's strategy, management's thoughts on capital allocation and M&A and future communication around guidance and TotalCare accounting.
We do not expect any groundbreaking new information to emerge. Indeed we expect some concerns over the outlook for 2014 earnings given management guidance of a strong second half bias to the results and uncertainty over the group's interest in [Finnish group] Wärtsilä. We have trimmed 2015-16 earnings per share estimates mainly to reflect the recent divestment of Energy.
We see some risk of a further earnings downgrade given the guidance of 1/3:2/3 sales and earnings before interest and tax phasing between the first and second half this year. This is a major change from the more typical 45-47%:55-53% split of previous years and leaves the group a lot to do in the second half to make the guidance.
In view of management's desire to maintain a strong balance sheet, we think any potential combination with Wärtsilä would require a major equity element. Our simulation of a Wärtsilä acquisition based on various bid premia indicates that a hypothetical deal would be value destroying under most scenarios. It would also dilute the group's civil aerospace business which is a major attraction of the group for many investors. Given these concerns on both earnings outlook and corporate intent, we conclude that the shares could continue to underperform civil aerospace peers.
The company said last week its order book would be hit by £2.6bn after Emirates Airlines cancelled an Airbus order for 70 A350 aircraft.

Most folks understand the need for incorporating fresh fruits or vegetables in their daily eating habits but sadly fail to grasp the importance of getting the needful nutrients into their systems. Take most juices in the market, for instance, that many uninformed individuals consider to be nutritious and useful to their health. Nevertheless, consuming these products can in fact be detrimental to one's health. Drinking such juices is really quite useless in helping to keep one's health in tiptop condition.
The preparation process of such juices is what reduces their capacity to be nutritious as it lowers or even destroys the nutrients that are found in the meager fruits or veggies they are extracted from. Two great culprits of this process are the oxidation (addition of air) and heating procedures that most juice manufacturing firms pass their raw products through. These two in effect kill most if not all the vital nutrients, enzymes and minerals that are naturally found in the fruits and veggies.
After decades of research Juice Crafters made cold pressed juice available to LA's local community at their store in Brentwood, Pacific Palisades and Downtown LA. Cold-pressed juice is processed by juicers that is pressing instead of the chopping and slicing action typical of normal juicers. Pressing doesn't produce any heat or allow air into the pulp hence it enables the fruit and vegetable ingredients like nutrients, minerals, enzymes and even fiber to remain intact throughout the juicing process.
This process thus culminates in healthy and nutritious cold pressed juice from which the body can absorb essential ingredients. Consequently, such juices have been found to be extremely useful in helping to regulate the body's critical functions, preventing certain diseases, boosting the immune system, and even cleansing it of harmful toxins. These juices have also been proven to possess invaluable medicinal attributes. For example, pineapple juices have been noted to sooth sore throats and ginger juices are known to ease nausea.
One particularly beneficial cold pressed juice variety is that extracted from green vegetables. This juice type is currently rated to have arguably the highest quantity of nutrients as compared to any other food type. It is extremely rich in vital vitamins and minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium and potassium. Iron is essential in blood production, vitamins are key players in boosting the immune system against diseases, and calcium is vital in the formation of strong and healthy bones.
Additionally, cold pressed juice that has been extracted from green vegetables aids in maintaining appropriate pH levels in the body by virtue of containing crucial Omega-3 fatty acids that minimize detrimental cholesterol build up in the body. Drinking this juice has been noted to be helpful in curbing the cropping up of heart disease and some kinds of cancer of the body.

Stay healthy and vibrant by drinking cold pressed juice

No10 tried to appease Labour MPs amid warnings that Gordon Brown should "rein in" his Business Secretary's influence over Government.
Labour backbenchers, growing numbers of whom oppose the part-privatisation plan for the post service, called on the Prime Minister to clip Lord Mandelson's wings.
When asked today about complaints that the peer had too much influence, Mr Brown's official spokesman said: "We don't have a Deputy Prime Minister. Lord Mandelson is Secretary of State for Business."
Lord Mandelson infuriated backbenchers yesterday by suggesting critics were using "scare tactics" to stymie his proposals to bring in private-sector help for the state-run postal service.
Fresh evidence of Cabinet disquiet over the plans emerged when Deputy Labour leader Harriet Harman confirmed there had been "robust discussion" among senior ministers. Labour rebels were boosted by Ms Harman's reassurances that the Government will look closely at their "concerns".
But many were smarting from Lord Mandelson's latest Sunday newspaper interview in which he underlined his wish to push through the plans.
Former minister Peter Kilfoyle told the Evening Standard: "It's time for Gordon Brown and his colleagues to break the spell Peter seems to have over the higher reaches of the Government."
Geraldine Smith, whose Commons motion opposing the plan has been signed by 145 MPs, added: "The only person who's been using scare tactics and dirty tricks is Peter Mandelson."
Several MPs believe Lord Mandelson's unashamedly Blairite policies are weakening Mr Brown's support.
John Grogan, a leading rebel on the plans, said that Cabinet ministers and "people within No 10" were beginning to see the dangers of splitting the party.
Government sources have suggested Lord Mandelson wants to get his plans through Parliament before the summer recess. But Mr Grogan said the Royal Mail Bill would face serious Labour opposition at its second reading.
A recent poll showed that 65 per cent of voters opposed the plans.

GoldCore Update - Gold New Record Highs; USD Record Lows Again?
Gold has traded at new nominal record highs (over $1,070/oz) and is currently trading at $1.066/oz. In EUR and GBP terms, gold is trading at €715/oz and £665.90/oz respectively. Resistance currently lies at $1,070/oz with initial support at $1,050/oz and then at $1,040/oz. With oil back above $75 per barrel and at a 1 year high, and the dollar again under pressure today, gold continues to eke out gains. Gold's record comes as the dollar (as measured on the US Dollar Index) has fallen to lows last seen in August 2008 and has breached 1.49 against the euro. The US Dollar Index has fallen to 75.51 and looks in poor shape technically with strong support not seen until down at the multi year lows at 71.0 (see chart). As long as the dollar keeps falling, gold will continue to rally in dollar terms. Should the dollar mount a rally then we shall see gold move up in euro and sterling and likely make new record highs in these currencies - as has happened throughout this gold bull market in all currencies.
Gold's move is not all about the fall in the dollar. With the dollar having fallen again in recent days, obviously gold has rallied in dollar terms but gold is actually moving up in all currencies.
This can clearly be seen in the chart of gold as measured against a basket of major currencies (US dollar, euro, sterling, yen and Canadian dollar). Gold is just below record highs in nearly all major currencies and when the dollar mounts a counter trend rally (which is due in coming days and weeks) then we shall see gold reach new record highs in other currencies.
The continuing taboo is that of an international monetary crisis. While this remains unlikely, it is a real possibility and this is one of the primary reasons for gold's strength. Central banks continue to diversify into gold and overnight came news that the central bank of Taiwan is considering diversifying more of its substantial currency reserves into gold.
Silver is currently trading at $17.91/oz, €12.03/oz and £11.20/oz. Silver resistance lies just above the $18/oz mark and support at $17.55/oz. Silver remains very undervalued relative to gold, on a supply/demand basis and on a historical basis. The very large short positions held by two large Wall Street banks is under pressure and could lead to a significant short squeeze.
Platinum Group Metals
Platinum is trading at $1,365/oz and rhodium is trading at $1,775/oz. Palladium is currently trading at $333/oz.
