Our Comic-Con Showcase was a huge success and many felt it was the best dance showcase yet. A big thank you to all of our dancers, teachers, and supporters for contributing to our success.
Performing in a dance showcase is one of the best ways to improve your dancing in a short period of time because it gives you a concrete goal to work toward. Performing in a dance showcase also builds self-confidence, helps you understand how choreography and music work together to create a complete dance performance and helps you grow as an overall dancer. (It's also a LOT OF FUN!!!)
If you are interested in dancing in one of our upcoming dance showcases contact Deborah or Guillermo.

By Your Side Dance Studio is excited to announce that seven of their competitive ballroom dance students will be ballroom dancing at the prestigious Blackpool Dance Festival starting May 23rd 2017.
The first Blackpool Dance Festival was held during Easter week in 1920 in the magnificent Empress Ballroom in the Winter Gardens and is now the world's first and most famous annual international ballroom dance competition.
This year the Blackpool Dance Festival will cover nine days of Ballroom and Latin American dancing with the best dancers from dance schools and dance studios from over 60 different countries in attendance.
And, for the first time ever the Blackpool Dance Festival has decided to invite students to compete with their teachers. Our ballroom dance students will be competing in the ProAm division which refers to a professional dancer or teacher dancing with their student.
The Blackpool Dance Festival is like Olympic Games: it's so prestigious that simply taking part in this incredible ballroom dance competition is a great personal achievement and winning it is like earning Olympic Gold for ballroom dancing.
We are proud to be part of this historic time in which Pro/Am ballroom dancing programs have been allowed to compete in the oldest and most prestigious ballroom dancing event in the world.
If you are interested in becoming a better ballroom dancer more quickly, consider Pro/Am competitive ballroom dancing. You will learn to dance with confidence, style, and grace while having a measurable goal for improving your dancing abilities.
For more information on Pro/Am competitive ballroom dancing talk to Deborah or Guillermo.
Get swingin' with our fun swing dance class! We teach two styles of swing dancing and they are both very easy to learn.
Jitterbug swing or East Coast Swing is typically more lively and energetic and is great for dancing to high energy big band music. West Coast Swing is generally a little slower, more formal swing style and West Coast Swing dancers often stay within a specific rectangular slot on the dance floor. While East Coast Swing is more jumpy and energetic, West Coast Swing is more sensual and elegant.
No partner or prior dance experience necessary.
Don't miss our Hustle class on Tuesdays starting at 8:30 pm. What is the Hustle? In the early 1970's a new partner dance called the "Hustle" became popular on the crowded dance floors of New York. The Hustle is a fun couples dance with smooth spins, turns and wraps along with elaborate arm styling. It's smooth, it's elegant and it's A LOT OF FUN!
If you haven't danced the Hustle why not try a class? This is an all levels class with no partner required. I hope to see you there!
This month we are offering lots of great ballroom dance classes. In the Rhythm classes we rotate between Cha Cha, Rumba and Swing. In the Ballroom classes we rotate between Foxtrot, Tango and Waltz.
Level 1 & 2 is for all dancers. Level 3 is for advanced social dancers (Bronze 3 & 4) and Level 4 is for the competitive ballroom dancer (Silver 1 & 2).
We make champion ballroom dancers and there's never been a better time than now to enter the fun, sexy and glamorous world of competitive ballroom dancing!
Except for Level 1, pre-approval by an instructor is a must for these classes.
The Argentine tango is often described as the most romantic of all the dances. Now you can experience the beauty, passion and romance of the Argentine Tango with our new series of beginner and intermediate Argentine tango lessons.
Our Argentine Tango lessons will help develop a more comprehensive understanding of how to "connect the dots". A strong focus will be placed on Argentine Tango dance improvisation, navigation and timing as well as an introduction to the two main systems: Parallel and Cross System. In addition, students will learn how to combine the core elements and implement new figures essential to Argentine Tango. Lastly, students will be introduced to the social dance etiquette preparing them for the tango socials (Milongas/Practicas).
Here are a couple of videos of our fantastic Argentine Tango dance instructor Jordi Caballero. In 2007, Jordi was an associate producer and co-star of Valentina's Tango, opposite celebrated tango master Guillermina Quiroga.
Tammy Gibson and Jordi Caballero perform during "Tango Nuevo Cabaret" at the Ford Amphitheater in Hollywood, California
Monica Orozco & Jordi Caballero perform in "Tango Evolution" at the Downey Theatre in California
Join us for a fun Salsa class. Our Salsa classes are very friendly and social, and we have classes for every level of experience. Salsa dancing has also proven to be a great physical workout and is much more fun than going to the gym!

Thank you to everyone that came to our James Bond License to Dance Showcase last Sunday… we had a blast! Here's the link to the pictures and videos from the show (videos are at the end of the gallery).
We were so happy to have four time undefeated US and World American Smooth Champions Slawek Sochacki and Marzena Stachura perform in our professional show at our Ten Year Anniversary Gala. We were very honored to have this amazing couple perform and their beautiful dancing was an incredible highlight to our professional dance show.
For three consecutive years Slawek Sochacki and Marzena Stachura were the European Champions in the 10-Dance Division, as well as 2005 Standard Champions. After moved to the US in 2009 they began dancing and competing in the American Smooth division. They were both US American Smooth Champions, World American Smooth Champions for four consecutive years in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and now teach the top ballroom dancing couples in the US.
They have been featured choreographers for the TV show Dancing with the Stars and are incredible ballroom dance instructors who believe strongly in bringing quality instruction, passion and beauty to the ballroom dance floor.
Let's face it, for every person who is gliding and swaying in perfect time on the ballroom dance floor, there are many of us who are just "rhythmically challenged." If you have tried to learn to ballroom dance and find it awkward to move your body to the beat of the music, you are not alone.
But guess what? The good news is that you can learn to dance and improve your rhythm by simply listening to your favorite music and practicing shifting your weight from one foot to another.
So, how do we begin to become more rhythmic? We begin by understanding the song structure. Most standard ballroom dance music, except for the waltz and cha cha which have triplets, is a series of 8 beat patterns. And, if you can count the sets of 8 beats in time to the music, then you have found the beat. The easiest way to learn this is to put on some music and immediately begin counting sets of 8 in time to the music. Make sure to listen to the drums as they will always be on the beat. If you are still having trouble hearing the beat, try either clapping or tapping your foot to the rhythm of the music while you count.
Counting beats to the music can also help you identify the song structure so that you will be able to dance in patterns that will naturally flow with the music. For example, you could plan a dramatic dance pose that is timed to a "break" or peak point of excitement in a musical number.
You will often find that the music structure changes throughout a song as one set of 8's ends and another begins. If the song changes as the music transitions then you have found the beat. If you feel you are a little bit off in your counting during these transitions then you may be off the beat just a little bit. Always be sure that you are counting "1" at the beginning of each song section or transition.
If you truly want to learn to ballroom dance, its important to understand that ballroom dancing is all about weight shifts. In fact, the most important thing to keep in mind when learning to dance is to always know where your weight is. To practice this, start by simply swaying side to side with the music. Each side to side movement should be 2 beats so you would sway to the left on 1 & 2 and then to the right on 3 & 4. You can tap your hands on the side of your hips as you sway to the music to help you keep the beat. Notice that when you are swaying side to side you are shifting your body weight from one foot to another foot. Once you have practiced your swaying enough, believe it or not you now have the feeling of rhythm!
The next step is to expand your swaying into a simple rock step. Start with one foot forward and the other foot back. Now, instead of swaying back and forth, completely shift your weight to one foot so that the other foot has no weight on it. The count for this is a complete weight shift forward on 1 & 2 and a complete weight shift back on 3 & 4. Rocking back and forth is a great way to practice complete weight shifts while maintaining balance.
Finally, you can continue to expanding your weight shifts into simple dance steps and dance patterns. An example of a single rhythm dance step with one weight change in two beats of music would be something like "step touch, step hold". A double rhythm with two weight changes in a beat of music would be something like "step step" or "quick quick".
Many basic ballroom dance steps are a combination of dance rhythms. Salsa, for example, follows an 8 beat rhythm pattern and is often described as "quick quick slow – quick quick slow", while the Rumba is "slow, quick, quick – slow, quick, quick". In these examples the slow step gets 2 beats and each quick step is 1 beat. Remember, ballroom dancers don't like to be "bouncy" so try to make your weight shifts as smooth and as elegant as possible.
Now that you have better rhythm to the music you just need to practice. The best thing is that you can improve your rhythm while listening to your favorite dance songs in the comfort of your home. Anyone can learn to ballroom dance, so start swaying to the rhythm and get dancing!
Congratulations to our ballroom dancing champions who placed 1st in their dancing heats at the recent Royal Ball ballroom dancing competition in Los Angeles!
Marilyn Tucker danced in Bronze American Smooth and placed 1st in 14 dances and 2nd in two more. In her Multi-Dance Championship she placed 3rd in a heavily contested group. This was her first time competing with Guillermo in this style. Great job!
Deanna Stanton danced in Silver American Smooth and placed 1st in all her single dances. In her Multi-Dance Championship she came in 2nd (but taking 1st in the Foxtrot). She danced the best she had ever danced showing great improvement in her quality of movement and her showmanship.
The annual Royal Ball ballroom dancing competition takes place at the historic Biltmore hotel is organized by Paul Killick & Shirley Ballas with a full day of dancing competitions for all levels. The event goes out in style with a gourmet dinner, amazing dance performances and live music.
Visit the Royal Ball website for more information on this annual ballroom dancing competition in Los Angeles.
Have you ever thought about dancing in a ballroom dancing competition? Guess what? It's really easy to start and it's a whole lot of fun! Plus, you will become a much better ballroom dancer much more quickly when you are practicing your butt off for that upcoming ballroom dancing competition!
How does it work? Basically you will compete against similar amateur dancers based on your ballroom dancing proficiency (Bronze, Silver and Gold levels) and your chosen style of dance. Visit this link for more information on the ballroom dancing medal system.
For Pro/Am events, you (the amateur) will be dancing with your ballroom dance instructor (the pro). This makes the whole experience much less intimidating and much more rewarding because you will be dancing with and experienced ballroom dancer right there by your side.
Competitive ballroom dancing is about setting a goal and getting there. If your goal is to become a good ballroom dancer then practicing for a ballroom dancing competition will get you there much more quickly and with an attention to dance style and technique that you may not achieve with your regular dance lessons.
If you are looking for a hobby that will literally change your life for the better, look no further than ballroom dancing! Ballroom dancing is a lot more than just learning dance steps to music, ballroom dancing is the perfect combination of physical activity, social interaction and mental stimulation that provides positive effects for the mind, body and spirit.
Studies have shown that ballroom dancing can help you lose weight, stay flexible, reduce stress, make friends and more.
Ballroom dancing is the perfect exercise for those who hate to "work out". Studies have shown that ballroom dancing burns anywhere from 5 to 10 calories per minute depending on speed and intensity. That's pretty good for a whole-body workout that is actually fun to do.
Ballroom dancing is a great way to improve your balance, flexibility and coordination. As you learn to ballroom dance, your body will find itself stretching and bending in different ways that all help to strengthen your core and improve your balance.
Ballroom dancing is a great hobby for reducing stress and increasing overall wellbeing. As the saying goes, there are not a lot of shortcuts to happiness but dancing is certainly one of them. Getting out on the dance floor and dancing to some upbeat music is a great way to "turn-off" the stress of everyday life.
A recent study in the Journal of Sports Science and Medicine found that ballroom dancing can improve your memory and cognitive functions. Since dancing requires you to remember dance steps you will enjoy increased brain power and improved memory function. In fact, studies showed that ballroom dancing twice a week can help reduce the risk of dementia in older adults.
Dancing is a popular social activity and studies have shown that the social aspects of dancing and learning a new skill can contribute to increased self-confidence and a more positive outlook on life. When you join a ballroom dance class you are committing to work together with a dance partner to learn a new skill and ultimately have a little fun on the dance floor together. It is ultimately this camaraderie and enjoyment of ballroom dancing which will forever change your life for the better.

• Texas Tech quarterback Taylor Potts had a good first day of practice and seemed much more at ease than he did for most of the spring. While the receivers rotated in and out trying different combinations, Potts was extremely consistent and showed good decisiveness throughout the practice.
• Freshman quarterback Jacob Karam spent the day working with the scout team offense, and looked much like a freshman quarterback in his first day at the collegiate level would be expected to look.
• The often injured Aaron Crawford practiced today and looked like his old self. It appears that his injured shoulder has made a full recovery.
• Speaking of full recoveries, Jamar Wall participated in practice today with no restrictions. He looked to be as healthy as he has been since fall camp 2008.
• Brandon Carter was practicing his field goal kicking and managed to hit a 20 yarder right between the uprights, swiftly followed by a kick that not only stayed inches above the ground but nailed a local television reporter in the left leg.
• Freshman defensive tackle Pearlie Graves, defensive end Kerry Hyder, and sophomore Myles Wade all looked ready to play in the Big XII immediately, at least from a physical point of view. Graves and Wade are both about the size of a Mack truck while Hyder isn't far behind.
• Terrance Bullitt showed several good flashes during today's practice, at one point defending a much more veteran receiver and forcing an incompletion. While Bullitt is extremely raw and in dire need of a year under strength and conditioning coach Bennie Wylie, he already seems ot have the mental aspect of the game developing nicely.
• Brandon Sharpe and Daniel Howard rotated in at the right defensive end position while Sandy Riley manned the left end spot. It remains unclear who the second left defensive end will be should Riley hold the starting spot on that side.
• Terry McDaniel was working with the second team offensive line while Chris Olson was working as the starting left tackle next to All-American Brandon Carter.
• Taylor Charbonnet was working wit the first team defense at right cornerback instead of LaRon Moore. It remains to be seen if this is a permanent move or an evaluative technique from secondary coach Brian Mitchell.
• The freshman receivers (E.J. Celestine, Derrick Mays, Aaron Fisher, and Eric Ward) did not appear particularly impressive during practice today. This is mildly perplexing since Ward was on campus during the spring. While it is to early to tell for certain, right now it appear that all four of these players would be likely candidates for a red-shirt.
• Linebackers Brian Mahoney and Dion Chidozie both took reps with the 3 deep defense at one point or another in practice.
• Aaron Charbonnet, the third brother to play for the Red Raiders, is following in his older brother Daniel's footsteps as he worked today with the safeties, not the corners.
• One notable absence included defensive lineman Brandon Sesay. No indication was given as to whether or not he would be available for the 2009 season.
• Donnie Carona let loose several outstanding punts during today's practice. It appears that the left footed kicker may be better suited to punting than anyone could possibly imagine.
• Defensive ends and defensive line coach Charlie Sadler still had a fairly serious bandage on his left wrist and forearm after suffering a burn during a grilling accident.
• Austin Zouzalik (who may or may not have the nickname ZaZou) had an outstanding and consistent day playing at the inside receiving positions while Jacoby Franks had just as good a day playing at the Z receiving position. Franks had several acrobatic catches throughout the day in several different drills.
Offensive play of the day: Jacoby Franks
Defensive player of the day: Brian Duncan

The WinksView in iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
Initially nothing more than an informal collaboration between mandolinist Todd MacDonald, cellist Tyr Jami, and a rotating cast of their friends, Canada's the Winks solidified into a chamber-infused indie pop outfit in the early 2000s. The Winks were prolific from the get-go, self-releasing seven EPs and full-lengths between 2000 and 2005. They managed to land a record deal with Ache during that time, and their debut full-length on that label, Birthday Party, was released in 2006. ~ Margaret Reges

Shares in taxpayer-owned Royal Bank of Scotland hit an 11-month high today as it said a much-improved economy, especially in Ireland, meant it could make lower provisions for bad debts.
The bank, which is 80% owned by the taxpayer following its £45 billion bailout, issued an unscheduled trading update today saying it "expects to significantly outperform" its previous guidance for bad debt provisions of £1 billion this year.
This was its third positive upgrade this year.
The latest one comes from its so-called "bad bank", where losses will be £500 million lower than previously expected, and Ulster Bank, with £300 million less.
RBS said this was due both to economic improvements in the UK and Ireland and improvements in assets prices, notably property.
Chief executive Ross McEwan said the bank had seen a "decisive turn in the economic cycle".
But he repeated his constant caution that "previously disclosed uncertainties remain, particularly relating to conduct and litigation matters".
RBS is one of six banks expected to face hefty penalties shortly from the Financial Conduct Authority and international regulators over its role in alleged foreign exchange benchmark rigging.
It was fined a total of £390 million for manipulating the key Libor interest rate last year.
The bank also cautioned: "Corporate and institutional banking revenues have been weaker than anticipated in the third quarter."
McEwan is already shrinking what are largely investment banking activities in this area of the bank, but the summer saw a general fall in financial market revenues across the world.
The £500 million writebacks at RBS Capital Resolution (RCR), or the bad bank, could be just the start, the bank said.
It added: "The potential exists, if market conditions remain favourable, for RCR to incur limited future impairments and disposal losses, and an accelerated timetable to achieve its wind-down goals."
Likewise, improvements in Ulster could mean further releases of provisions already made for bad debts, which across the bank totalled £8 billion at the start of this year.
With the good news far outweighing the bad, RBS shares rose 13.7p, or nearly 4%, to 375.1p — their highest since October 2013.Reuse content

Fantastic Med Cruise on the Beautiful Celebrity Summit: Celebrity Summit Cruise Review by sallylynne
Overall Member Rating
Fantastic Med Cruise on the Beautiful Celebrity Summit
Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean
Embarkation: Venice
We found the food delicious in the main dining room in just about every case. we especially enjoyed the French Onion soup & Caprice Salads. The beef dishes were always tasty & tender. Chicken & seafood selections good too. Our waiter, Lisme, and his assistant were great...funny & helpful & always anticipated our needs. The Waterfall buffet was great for breakfasts, especially the omelette More & waffle bar. Didn't have lunch on board often as we were in ports so much.Probably the only disappointment was in the Normandie specialty restaurant. Although the service was impeccable, the food wasn't any better than the MDR.
We thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment nightly. there was a violinist we would have gladly paid to see in Vegas. The Broadway productions were good & the aerialists fantastic. No complaints at all.
Our stateroom (just a lower deck ocean view) was very nice. Plenty big (larger than our previous cruises on Holland & Carnival) and well equipped. our room steward was wonderful...always went over & beyond what she needed to do, left more toiletries than we could use. I've read reviews about the rooms being in poor condition - ours was just great!
We love the Therapy Pool, wish i could have brought those jets home! After a long days touring, the pool with a peach daiquiri hit the spot!
We did all the ports with Cruise Critic friends...folks we'd met online & arranged tours with or just grouped together & did it on our own. much more fun to get lost in a group! This was great in every country. Made friends we are still in touch with.
Disembarkation was even quicker than embarkation! Totally smooth & easy with our luggage just where they said it would be.
All in all, this was truly a wonderful "trip of a lifetime". We hope to do lots more cruises with Celebrity. Less

CHAPTER 23: The LetterMature
Alice awoke on the floor of the living room with blankets everywhere.
The fort must've fallen down, she thought to herself.
She could smell pancakes coming from the kitchen and got up to join Cissy and Bella.
"Oh good Alice, you're awake," said Cissy.
"Excellent. Sleeping beauty finally awoke from her magical slumber . . . what a load of bull shit that is! Can you believe that's their idea of magic?" laughed Bella. "It's completely idiodic.
"That's muggles for you," said Cissy. Alice laughed.
"I didn't know you read muggle books, Bella," said Alice.
"I don't," she said. "I just killed a little girl once and thats the garbage she was reading."
"I'll stick with Babbidy Rabbidy," said Alice.
"Still your favorite, is it?" sked Bella.
"Since I killed my mum and dad," said Alice with a smile. "Did you ever read The Tales of Beedle the Bard to Draco, Cissy?"
"Some of them," Narcissa replied, flipping over a few pancakes.
"Good God," said Bella. "There are only three of us! How much do you expect us to eat?"
Alice and Cissy laughed.
"Mail's here!" yelled Bella.
A fierce-looking black owl handed Bellatrix a small stack of envelopes. She looked to see who it was addressed to.
"Cissy...Cissy...Cissy...Cissy...Cissy...Cissy...Ooh! This one's for Alice. From Severus -- how romantic!!!" said Bellatrix waving it around in the air.
"Just give me the damn envelope, Bella!!!"
"Come and get me first!"
Alice ran very fast, so it wasn't hard to pin Bella against the wall. Bellatrix handed her the envelope. Alice tore it open and read it.
Dear Alice,
I can't stand to be apart from you any longer. Please come and visit me. Meet me on Thursday at the astronomy tower at noon. I love you.
"Aww!" said Alice.
"What is it?" asked Cissy.
"He wants me to visit him!"
"And exactly how do you expect to get into Hogwarts?" asked Narcissa.
"I'll sneak in with the owl, of course," said Alice. "What day is it?"
"Thursday," said Bella.
"I have to get down there! Right now!"
"Wait, Alice. This sounds sketchy," said Bella. "It just seems out of character for Snape to ask you to do something so dangerous."
"I don't care, Bella. I'm going."
Alice morphed into an owl and flew off towards Hogwarts.

Trail to the Shining City
Leon lie awake in his bed, eyes stuck in a perplexing staring contest with the ceiling. He rolled over with a grunt and stared out the window. The lights of town were all but extinguished, and the moon shown like shattered gem against the clouds.
Had it really come to pass? Has the whole of recorded history simply been a grace period for the brewing storm of nightmares?
The red skies overhead mirrored an ever growing pile of corpses on the battlefield.
"They're overwhelming us!"
"We need to leave! Leon! Keep them at bay!"
Leon needed not to be told twice. He drew the blunderbuss with one hand and turned back to the lumbering hoard of Romanian once-soldiers. The glowing green danced in eye sockets of the Tepes empire once more.
The first row lowered their pikes. A glowing halo of shot thundered from the barrel of Leon's weapon at the same moment. The smoldering steel passed easily through several rows of undead before finally coming to a halt in the chests of the archers in back.
A large number of the armored warriors were taken down in the cone of destruction the firearm had left behind. But the masses simply refilled the hole in their formation and prepared once again to charge.
Leon raised his Wheelock from it's holster and removed the great sword from his back. He gave the enemy no opportunity to attack. A blur of grey passed through the skull of one soldier, and then sliced through the waist of another.
With a twirl, another cloudy smear twisted through those who surrounded the wolf. The ranks scattered in chaos, multiple knights attempting to strike with bulky maces. Leon lowered his gun on one helmet, blowing it and the wearer back to the grave. With one slash he took the closest attacker's arm off, then doubled back for a finishing decapitation. A shotsword jabbed in his vicinity, luckily parried by the butt of the pistol. The sword came around about chest height and easily sliced his attacker in two.
He struck and struck again, finding those encircling him to be falling away.
"What? Does the Impaler's army not live up to the legend?" Leon hollered at the monsters.
"They were simply a spectacle for me to enjoy watching." Came the accented reply.
From the hoard, a man emerged. His bizzare facial hair exactly as it was in the centuries old portrait. His skin much paler, and his rotting eyes alive again with a ominous crimson glow.
"Vlad Tepes. I'm surprised you would actually face me. Last I heard, you were feasting upon the commoners flesh in a forest of stakes."
"I grew more than a little bored with devouring these new peasants. They are not my countrymen anymore."
"You no longer reside in this world demon. Thus in the name of all who righteously live, I'll take your life yet again!"
The royal grinned, raising a sword from his golden sheath. It's ornate handle already coated with blood.
Leon came at him, sword poised for a brutal strike. The blades collided in a shower of sparks, then withdrew and repeated. Vlad stabbed forward, dodged only in a split second by the wolf.
The wolf twisted his hand back and blocked a quick reprisal by the prince, who scoffed at the lesser swordsmanship that Leon displayed.
"This is an insult to warriors across the land! What, do all idiots take up swords and call themselves noble now?"
"Wrong," Leon hissed, reaching deep into his coat,"I fight with the new weapon of this world."
From within he removed the snub nosed flintlock he always held for emergencies.
Vlad stared with horror at the device that he had only begun to see since his resurrection.
"No man would be so dishonorable!"
"We are, most certainly, not men. We are more monster than you will ever know."
And with a crack, the unnatural light within the Prince of Wallachia was purged.
And so it came to an end, the remaining forces lost the hub of their damned army to the wolves, who tore through their ranks.
But the end didn't come fast enough. Thousands had still been killed as the Impaler had made his way across Romania for a second time.
The signs. Were too clear, something was coming. Even worse was the story that merchant ships passing through the frigid water above Norway had seen a 'burning orange star' that appeared only briefly at sunrise.
A rhythmic tapping echoed from the door. Leon was startled, bolting up with hand on the gun by his bedside.
"Dear brother, pardon me for intruding so late. Might I enter?"
The hunter lowered his guard and sighed;"go ahead, Alice."
The black haired girl cautiously opened the door and put her head through.
Alice was the final of the three sisters, being the median of the girls. She was mild mannered, and composed. She was also quite attractive, with flawless skin and piercing eyes. This put her at the center of attention for the younger members of the pack.
"How are you tonight?" She smiled, walking into the dimly lit room.
"Alright I suppose." He sighed, leaning up and cracking his neck.
The dream had been real enough. The stench of the littered countryside. The wine colored blood bursting from every direction. Never again would he return to Romania, he had seen too many things that would only flood back when he stepped on it's soil.
"I actually wanted to report something."
Alice removed a note from the satchel at her waist. She handed it to Leon with a half-joking bow.
"I'm doing escort with Victor and Dante?" He read.
"Yes. Apparently, some anti-savior organizations have caught word of the Paris meeting. There will most certainly be an attack. Two naturalists from Normandy were found in a ditch with huge bites taken out of their limb joints. Canine bites."
The hunter's eyes turned to a murderous glare,"you're telling me lycanthropes did this?"
"It's why you were selected. You have the most experience hunting the rouges of our kind."
Leon's fury was hardly containable. The traitors would die these coming nights, and he would finally learn who their organizer was.

BUCKINGHAM PALACE has formally announced the birth of a son to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge; the future King was born at 4.24pm, London time (1.24am Tuesday, AEST) and will be the third in line to the throne to become King of Australia.
The palace said in a statement:
"Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge was safely delivered of a son at 4.24pm. The baby weighs 8lbs 6oz.
"The Duke of Cambridge was present for the birth.
"The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Harry and members of both families have been informed and are delighted with the news.
"Her Royal Highness and her child are both doing well and will remain in hospital overnight."
May we simply say that we extend our heartiest congratulations and best wishes to William and Kate, and to express our delight that the future King has arrived safely and well.
This entire event has been punctuated by the ridiculous, however, with the ubiquitous Fleet Street press pack providing coverage on details extending right down to the stains on the pavement outside the St Mary's Hospital in London.
Indeed, comment from so-called "royal watchers" overnight (Australian time) has ranged from such lofty themes as an attempt to turn the event into "the people's pregnancy" (get the sick bucket) to a "debate" over whether Pippa Middleton's bum would appear "and steal the limelight."
Some people have nothing better to do, even when being paid to do it…
All that said, however, we are absolutely delighted at the news of the royal birth, and look forward to the formal introduction of the Prince publicly — and learning his name — in coming days.
In the meantime it is to be hoped the Duchess enjoys rest and a speedy recovery from the childbirth she has experienced, and that all of Her Majesty's loyal subjects share the joy of this exciting news.
God Save The Queen!

In Africa, HIV and AIDS affects women and mothers at a greater rate than men, creating a heavy disease burden among families. When parents die of the disease, children are left orphaned or given to the care of relatives who may not have the means to raise them. Pregnant and breastfeeding women who are infected with HIV also run the risk of transmitting the disease to their children.

In a microcosm of the credit crunch, the summer so far has seen the once-thriving world of indie film lurching into crisis: Tartan's kaput, Harvey Weinstein is having his finances publicly gossiped over, and those arthouse distributors who do remain afloat are seeing their peers routinely sink beneath the briny. So grim is the climate that the debate, as rounded-up by Spout Blog, has turned to whether indie film-makers should even concern themselves with cinema anymore - or in the age of DVD and brutal bottom lines, is a theatrical release now just a pricey indulgence?
That appears to have been the conclusion of John August, director of recent meta-thriller The Nines, writing at his own blog of his regret at not taking the movie far more rapidly to DVD after a well-reviewed but economically pointless stint in cinemas he now calls a "fool's errand." The logic for a smaller movie to go straight to disc both here and in the US is, it must be said, persuasive: almost without exception, a "proper" release simply means an awful lot of money spent competing with movies whose studio backing means they still blithely out-spend you at every turn in the battle for an audience.
But the counter-argument isn't just that a cinema release still confers a certain vague legitimacy. More than that, once a film is no longer being made to be watched on a big-screen (however small the audience), the question is what goes with it? After all, just as you imagine musicians are now tailoring their work to the fact it's most likely to be heard on iPod headphones, so the film-maker who walks away from cinema for DVD is also leaving behind the physical gifts of scale and its hold over the viewer that make a movie so potent in the first place; a process only likely to quicken as DVD itself falls prey to the "third and fourth screens" of laptops and phones.
Anyway, there's plenty more to be read about all this from (among others) Chuck Tryon and Green Cine Daily, the latter linking to another Spout Blog post that includes Peter Bogdanovich's sage and pertinent reasoning as to why young audiences so often dislike old films. "[It's] because they've never seen them on a big screen, ever. If you don't see a film on the big screen, you haven't really seen it."
Meanwhile, Screengrab had another illustration of the effects of time on our relationship to movies this week, linking to a collection of haunting photographs of dead cinemas - old movie houses long since shut down and left to crumble. Ranging from the Lynchian glow of Buffalo's Sattler Theater to the desolate cemetery beauty of a former Washington State drive-in, the effect is so striking I'm amazed no-one's yet made a book of them - for now, they make a fine companion piece to the disused cinemas at Derelict London, with its images of the Catford ABC and Walthamstow EMD.
Which just leaves space to mention The Unsung Joe - a sublime blog stumbled on via Girish Shambu, devoted to in-depth tributes to jobbing bit-players from history who built careers out of stealing the odd scene in thankless minor roles. A step away from "cult" into the realm of the truly poignant ("Victoria Vinton had been in Hollywood for six years, and obviously things were not going well"), this is, to a tee, what the internet was invented for...

India to go for win against Myanmar: Wim Koevermans
Yangon (Myanmar): A draw against hosts Myanmar would see India top the group and qualify for AFC Challenge Cup 2014 in Maldives but coach Wim Koevermans says his team will only be going for a win when the two sides face off here Wednesday.
For the record, India stay at the top of the Group with six points from two matches while Myanmar, placed second are on four points from two matches.
The top team from the Group qualifies for the AFC Challenge Cup 2014 which is to be held in Maldives.
"At the back of the mind, you may be forced to think about a draw which will see us through. But we won`t play for a draw," said Koevermans.
"In such a match, there`s no place for any errors on the field. We need to keep possession and not give it away easily. In the last two matches, we have been casual at times to gift away the ball to our rivals. Against Myanmar, we can`t do that," said Mehtab Hossain who has been omnipresent on the green in the last two matches.
India`s captain Sunil Chhetri though made aware to his teammates of the large number of home fans who will be there to support their team.
"Let`s not forget they will have support from the stands and from what we saw, it`s a noisy crowd. Teams when backed by passionate fans can be very dangerous. That stays a big challenge for us," Chhetri warned.
India defeated a tricky opponent in the form of Chinese Taipei 2-1 in the opening match of the qualifying tournament and then impressed against Guam beating them 4-0 to go top of the table.

Instructor: Kem Hinton, Architect and Author
John Bridges, Historian and Author
Once the tallest structure in Nashville, Tennessee's magnificent State Capitol building gradually lost its prominence as one skyscraper after another obstructed our view. While gazing out of a third story window of the old Elliot School on Jefferson Street, John Bridges realized that the state capitol was visible from a distance only from the north. He knew if the wasteland before him was not replaced by a park, soon the last good view of the capitol would be lost forever. When then governor, Ned Ray McWherter saw Bridges' park concept booklet, he immediately recognized the park's potential as the central theme of Tennessee's upcoming 200th birthday celebration. Tuck-Hinton Architects were commissioned to turn a raw idea into the magnificent reality we enjoy today. Kem Hinton, lead designer of the project will explain the many features of the mall and the various approaches evaluated before the final design was selected. Using excerpts from his book, A Long Path, Hinton will help us to understand how this wonderful, yet complicated project was brought to fruition.

3-4:30 p.m.
Ezell Center, Room 109
Cost $60
Instructor: Tom Riley, Outreach Director, Bible and Ministry, Lipscomb University
The land of Israel has been called "The Fifth Gospel." We know the four Gospels of the New Testament: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. We study them to learn about the life and ministry of Jesus. By calling the land of Israel "The Fifth Gospel," we are saying that the physical location of Jesus' ministry has something to say about all of this. The land itself (and that which is buried within it) can be instructive.
In this course, we will discover that archaeology is not just about archaic languages, dusty holes, piles of rocks and hard to spell terms. It can be exciting. By studying some key archaeological sites in Israel, we will find the occasional gem. Some truth. Some new insight that gives deeper meaning to things we've read all our lives.
Join us as we discover together. Let's investigate some monumental finds (like the Dead Sea Scrolls) and even some lesser-known discoveries (like the inscription about Pontius Pilate). We might just come to see that archaeology not only supports and affirms the names, places, and events recorded in the Bible, it also has the potential to expand our understanding and enjoyment of the Bible.
Thursdays—How Films Tell Stories
Mar. 30 and Apr. 6, 13, 20, 27
3-4:30 pm
Ezell Center, Room 109
Cost $60
Instructor: Larry Brown, Professor of Film Studies, Lipscomb University

He will discuss how the fictional world of the story is communicated through the medium of cinema. Topics will include aspects of plot, characters, time, editing, sound, and music.

Peanut company owner refuses to testify
Wed., Feb. 11, 2009, 10:14 a.m.
WASHINGTON — The owner of a peanut company refused to testify to Congress on Wednesday amid the disclosure that he urged his workers to ship bacteria-tainted products, pleading with federal health officials that he should be able "turn the raw peanuts on the floor into money."
Stewart Parnell, owner of Peanut Corp. of America, repeatedly invoked his right not to incriminate himself before the House subcommittee holding a hearing on a national salmonella outbreak blamed on his company. The outbreak has sickened some 600 people, may be linked to nine deaths — the latest reported in Ohio on Wednesday — and has resulted in one of the largest product recalls of more 1,800 items.
Parnell sat stiffly, his hands folded in his lap at the witness table, as Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., held up a clear jar of his company's products wrapped in crime scene tape and asked him if he would be willing to eat the food.
"Mr. Chairman and members of the committee, on advice of my counsel, I respectively decline to answer your questions based on the protections afforded me under the U.S. Constitution," Parnell said.
After repeating the statement several times, he was dismissed from the hearing.
Shortly afterward, a lab tester testified that the company discovered salmonella at its Georgia plant as far back as 2006.
The House panel released e-mails obtained by its investigators showing Parnell ordered products identified with salmonella shipped and quoting his complaints that tests discovering the contaminated food were "costing us huge $$$$$$."
In mid-January after the national outbreak was tied to his company, Parnell told Food and Drug Administration officials that his workers "desperately at least need to turn the raw peanuts on our floor into money." In another exchange, he told his plant manager to "turn them loose" after products once deemed contaminated were cleared in a second test.
Parnell's response to a final lab test last year showing salmonella was about how much it would cost, and the impact lab testing was having on moving his products.
"We need to discuss this," he wrote in an Oct. 6 e-mail to Sammy Lightsey, his plant manager. "The time lapse, beside the cost is costing us huge $$$$$$ and causing obviously a huge lapse in time from the time we pick up peanuts until the time we can invoice."
Lightsey also invoked his right not to testify when he appeared alongside Parnell before the subcommittee.
The disclosures came in correspondence released by a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee Wednesday during a hearing on the salmonella outbreak.
"Their behavior is criminal, in my opinion. I want to see jail time," said Jeffrey Almer, whose 72-year-old mother died Dec. 21 in Minnesota of salmonella poisoning after eating Peanut Corp.'s peanut butter. Almer and other relatives of victims urged lawmakers to approve mandatory product recalls and improve public notice about contaminated food.
A federal criminal investigation is under way.
Darlene Cowart of JLA USA testing service said the company contacted her in November 2006 to help control salmonella discovered in the plant.
Cowart said she made one visit to the plant at the company's request and pointed out problems with its peanut roasting process and storage of raw and finished peanuts together that could have led to the salmonella. She testified that Peanut Corp. officials said they believed the salmonella came from organic Chinese peanuts.
An earlier FDA inspection report said the company found salmonella in some of its products a dozen times dating to June 2007.
"We appear to have a total systemic breakdown," said Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Mich., chairman of the committee's investigations subcommittee.
Other e-mails released by the committee show after salmonella was discovered in the Georgia plant's products, Parnell tried to salvage whatever he could from the plant, looking for loopholes in what the government said they could use.
In a Jan. 19 e-mail about a truck with more than 33,000 pounds of raw peanuts, Parnell noted that Georgia agriculture officials are "putting a hold on everything else in the plant" beside what was on the truck.
"Obviously we are not shipping any peanut butter products affected by the recall but desperately at least need to turn the raw peanuts on our floor into money," he wrote. "We have other raw peanuts on our floor that we would like to do the same with."
In another exchange, Parnell complained to a worker after they notified him salmonella was discovered in more products.
"I go thru this about once a week," he wrote in a June 2008 e-mail. "I will hold my breath ………. again."
A laboratory owner told the House panel that the peanut company's disregard for tests identifying salmonella in its product is "virtually unheard of" in the nation's food industry and should prompt efforts to increase federal oversight of product safety.
Charles Deibel, president of Deibel Laboratories Inc., said his company was among those that tested Peanut Corp. products and notified the Georgia plant that salmonella was found. Peanut Corp. sold the products anyway, according to an FDA inspection report.
"What is virtually unheard of is for an entity to disregard those results and place potentially contaminated products into the stream of commerce," Deibel said.
Deibel said he hopes the crisis leads to a greater role for FDA in overseeing food safety and providing more guidance to food makers.
The company, now under FBI investigation, makes only about 1 percent of U.S. peanut products. But its ingredients are used by dozens of other food companies.

Emilia: Newbies
As I take a walk around the school grounds, I am unable to stop the disappointment forming in my gut. I had been looking forward to a fight with Leo as he always pushes us until we are unable to move. I love training until I am unable to train any more. The feeling of absolute fatigue.
As I round the school, I walk over to a large cherry tree and stand in the shade, turning to look at the side of the massive, creme coloured building. The breeze is light but warm bringing with it the sound of constant chatter and occasional car engines. The smell of the pure, flowered air fills my nostrils as I close my eyes, leaning back on the firm trunk of the large pink tree.
A twig snapping brings me back to the present to see two first years walking the side of the building, watching me.
"Afternoon!" I say cheerfully to them. Something they take as an invitation to come closer.
"You were amazing back then!" The slight, fair haired female told me, her light blue eyes wide.
"Thanks. What is it you two can do?" I asked, my head tilting slightly to the side. In answer, the small, dark haired boy vanishes from sight. I grin lopsidedly and raise an eyebrow.
"Manipulation of the light squadron" I say appreciatively as he pops back into view, a large grin on his face. "Perfect for hide and seek" I tell him.
"I can see and control electricity fields." The girl answers, smiling. I grin, an idea sparkling in my mind.
"You able to use the Internet?" I ask her to which I receive a slow nod. "No cheating allowed." I answer, grin growing. The girl looks confused for a second before realisation dawns.
Her face turns into one of mischievous glee.
"Of course I won't" she tells me in a high girls voice. I nod, fighting back a grin.
Our chatter is interrupted by the dinner bell. Four quick rings one after each other in the space of five seconds.
"What is that?" The first years ask, confusion filling their faces.
"Dinner." I answer with a smile as I get of the tree and walk back towards the school.
Walking in the double doors, a tiled flooring leads onto two staircases. Under the large arc they make, is a dark red door leading into the assembly. To the right is a large white door leading to the cafeteria.I turn to my right, following the students already streaming in.
In the cafeteria, a large white clothed table sits in the centre piled high in food. Around it are ten tables each sitting up to eight people. Most of the tables are already full and a quick glance around shows me the twins and Jessie sitting at a treble to my left, I leave the two first years gaping and join my friends as Leo comes back from the table, a plate loaded with food.
"It will be assembly after this again, won't it?" I confirm once I have my own plate sorted.
"Yeah," Jessie replies, taking a drink of her water.
"And receiving our timetables" I add, a smile returning to my face.
"Yes. I hope we don't have Physical on Monday. I wouldn't be able to handle Mr McGarrett on a Monday," Arielle says, glancing over at the teacher table at the top of the hall. I look over myself to see the teacher in question glaring at the surrounding tables. I shudder.
"Please. If there is a higher being up their, please do not give us him on a Monday," I add, eyes closed to add affect which works. The twins burst out laughing and Jessie manages a smile. I grin.
Mission accomplished.

sleeping beauty, you look great in all of them! my fav is pic #40- the one you didnt like!!
attached to elijiah- i tried baby carrots (cooked in a pan with a little butter, salt and pepper, and a tiny pinch of sugar) this month for the first time and had a ridonkulous amt of ewcm the next day. not sure if that was a coincidence, but i think it was worth trying. i also am a big fan of soy- but i really think sometimes ladies over do it with how much they take. i think sometimes less (as in 40 mg) is more.
Hmmm, is it possible you O'd on CD 17/18? I know it's not a HUGE rise, but the temps are a little elevated and sustained and seem in the realm of normal for your post O temps. ***hugs*** Sorry for your screwy cycle but hey, maybe you'll be surprised with a BFP... maybe that would make all the weirdness worth it!

Anyone want to guess on whether I've O'd yet? I know it would have been early, but I have had creamy CM for two days and had EW for the two days before that. I thought I had a + OPK on CD11 but I am wondering if I misread it..Also, last night I could not get in the mood to DTD even though I thought I ought to to be on the safe side. My temp is up a little, but not high enough to make a definitive answer. I don't know why my body has to be so weird now...
Anyway, here's my chart
