Drake finds himself smiling then. Black figures surround then all with short blades. Their forearms go across there face, which is covere by a black mask and cloak, then the blades are close to the skin.
"Oh shit... Life wake up" Drake hisses. Life slowly raises her head and almost squeals but bite back on her lip.
"Seems we've got you all..." One of the figures says. "Follow us"
They begin moving and some shove Drake from behind. "I don't like this Drake" Life whispers gripping round my neck. I hold her more securely.
"Neither do I..... somethings wrong" Drake said. Just then they walk into a blinding room. A large crystal hangs down from the ceiling showing the very advanced building skills for some group of renegrades in a cave. They have tall spires and beautifully built domes.

Nicolas Anelka has joined Mumbai City FC as more than just a player/manager. As a marquee player/manager.
The former Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool striker, whose tally of two goals in seven games fired Mumbai to second from bottom in last season's inaugural Indian Super League, replaces Peter Reid in the dugout but will continue in a playing capacity.
Freddie Ljungberg was last season's marquee player but Anelka has taken on the role, which will allow the Frenchman to earn a higher salary.
Surprisingly this is not the 36-year-old's first foray into management. In 2012 Anelka joined the Shanghai Shenhua coaching staff, but he lasted just one season at the Chinese Super League club before returning to Europe. Since then he has spent time at Juventus and West Bromwich Albion, with the latter terminating the forward's contract in early 2014 after "gross misconduct" related to a controversial 'quenelle' gesture.
Mumbai City used Twitter to announce their new boss, with unsurprising results.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - September 11, 1983, New Braunfels, Texas Business Hwrald-Zeituaf Sunday, Septembar 11,1983 SALegislature must tackle $1 OO million problem Business mirror AUSTIN (AP) — A HOO million problem in collecting Uses from Texas banks is an almost sure subject for the next legislative session, special or regular. Whether Texas needs new laws or just different methods of collecting the taxes will be the big argument. On July 5 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that federal securities, such as Treasury bills and U.S. bonds owned by Texas banks, are exempt from property taxation. That decision shook not only Texas banks but practically every Texas city, county, school district and other taxing unit. Taxing banks' federal securities is the major source of revenue from banks for local governments which live mostly on property taxes. The legal controversy began in 1960 when the American Bank and Trust Co. and 51 other Dallas banks sued Dallas County, alleging the county was unlawfully taxing federal securities held by the banks. According to the bankers, such taxation was prohibited by federal law that said federal obligations are exempt from state or local taxes. The Dallas district court originally held for the county, but the Supreme Court, after three years, finally sided with the bankers. "Statewide, the decision will reduce the annual tax collections of cities, counties, schools and other taxing entities by an estimated $100 million/' said a statement prepared by the Texas Municipal League. "Of this amount, cities will lose about one-third." Some authorities said the decision might void existing state laws authorizing local governments to tax any or all bank-held securities. Additionally, the judgment was retroactive to 1960. After the suit was filed, some cities, counties and school districts put aside taxes collected from bank securities in escrow accounts, to await the final court decision. Others did not. Localities that have already spent the bank tax revenue are faced now with two options, said the TML — either increase taxes or cut bade spending to pay back the banks. The impact mainly will be felt in major urban areas, where most banks are concentrated. The ruling does not directly affect savings and loan associations, because they pay a state franchise tax on their operations, which banks do not. "I think that something will have to be done at the next session, whether its a special session or the 1965 regular session," said Rep. Stan Schlueter, D-Killeen, chairman of tile House Ways and Means Committee, which would have first vote on any tax Mil considered in a special session. "It probably will be some sort of a franchise tax for banks, collected by the state then returned on a pro rata basis to local governments," Schlueter said. "There are some problems with that, but I think we can do it." While the bank tax case was going through the courts, the Texas Bankers Association backed unsuccessfully in 1961 and 1963 a proposal to remove the bank securities from taxation and substitute a state franchise tax for banks that would not apply to federal securities. "We have not altered our position," said Leonard Passmore, general counsel of the Texas Bankers Association. "There is no reason why Texas banks should be taxed differently from other Texas businesses." Passmore said if the law is not changed, some banks with extensive holdings of federal securities would have "zero renditions."Dollar contributes to unemployment NEW YORK (AP) - If you take great pride in the strength of the UJS. dollar, which is to say it's superior buying power in relation to other currencies, you might not have thought the issue through. This is especially true if you are jobless, because the dollar's strength, so often portrayed as a symbol of economic well-being, is a direct contributor to the high rate of domestic unemployment. This strength-is-weakness scenario is accomplished by making it difficult for American companies to price their exports competitively, and making it easier for foreigners to undercut U.S. producers in their home markets. How many jobs? Hundreds of thousands. The Commerce Department says at least 20 percent of all U.S. jobs are tied to exporting, and since the trough of the recession late last year net exports have fallen by $12.6 billion. Which do you want: A dollar that continues to rise in value or one that begins to lose some of its international buying power? lf you choose a stronger dollar you will, in effect, express support for housing and other credit-sensitive industries, because a stronger dollar might mean a continuation of low inflation and, perhaps, moderate interest rates. If you choose a weaker dollar you will be siding with those who seek to make U.S. manufacturers more competitive in international markets, simply because a weaker dollar would mean lower price tags on U.S. exports. Financial focus GNP important as an economic indicator By Stan Cunningham, Edward D. Jonas Cr Co Economic indicators, as we have pointed out, are signposts which tell us the overall movement of our economy at a glance. One of the major signposts — or indicators — is the Gross National Product generally referred to as the GNP. This is reported quarterly on an annual basis by the Department of Commerce. The GNP shows the total current dollar value of new goods and services produced (or purchased) annually. It's a good overall measure of our economic growth. GNP is important because it shows the amount of direction of consumer, business and government spending and therefore helps estimate future business results. For example, if the GNP rises this would tend to indicate expanding corporate sales and hopefully increased profits. A rising GNP would be a positive investing sign, all things being equal. There is also the Federal Reserve Board Index (rf Industrial Production. This shows the combined physical output in manufacturing, mining and utility industries. The FRB Index measures activity in the most important basic industries like steel, automobiles, industrial machinery, chemical paper products and electrical and gas utilities. It shows us production and sales trends in the industries which produce over one-third of the nation's income, and thus is a valuable indicator. There are other indicators of production trends in specific industries such as steel production, auto production, electrical power output and petroleum production. These are reported weekly. We could go on indefinitely but I feel the picture is clear. It is possible to get a clear indication of trends in almost every sector of our economy. These, of course, are just facts and figures. They must be utilized to conclusions and investment decisions made. mro-Mnn I By RUSSELL STOLLEWERkB SCHRIEWER 6 ASSOCIATE! ■ insurance agency* Q: WHI my homeowner's policy provide lor level defense and settlement costs for Iniury to another person which Is alleged to be due to my negligence?

Water-drilling firm uses traditional means to find water BOERNE (AP) — Hugo Schwope tips back his cap, hitches up his coveralls and directs his water "witcher" skyward, gripping it tightly in his work-worn hands. He waits only a few seconds before, sure enough, there's a steady inexorable pull that ends with the contraption pointing straight at the ground. "Water," he says confidently. "I've never been wrong." Schwope, 67, is one of about 25,000 known water "witchers" in the United States, but his "God-gifted talent" has a rather unusual twist. He drills water wells for a living, thousands of them. "I always 'witch' a water well before I drill," he declares, "and I've never, ever drilled a dry hole." He founded Schwope It Sons water drilling company 35 years ago in this Hill Country community, about 25 miles north of San Antonio, and it didn't take long for word to spread about his knack. "I enjoy doing it," he said. "You feel like if you get people water, you're really being a big help." He discovered his gift, he said, during the 1962 drought that parched the local Hill Country terrain. He began with the most rudimentary equipment — a green forked wooden stick that folklorists say is directed to the water by the sap inside. "Witching," or dowsing, refers to the practice of using a forked stick, rod, pendulum or similar device to locate underground water, minerals or other hidden or lost substances. Schwope now uses a stick he bought in Florida many years ago for about $40 and then jazzed up with bits of a broom handle, plastic tubing and a "transistor," which strengthens the rod's pull. A six-inch vial on the stick's tip holds whatever substance Schwope is ferreting out — water, oil, gold or silver. "We had a guy come here out of Houston and say, 'I'd just like to see that work once,"' Schwope said. "He put a Kruggerand under a Styrofoam cup and lined the entire road with cups. "I put some gold in the tip of my 'witcher,' walked right to that one Krugerrand and made a believer out of him," he said. Schwope has four sons, but only one is "God-gifted" with dowsing ability, he said. "Very few people can do it," he said, "and a lot of people flat just don't believe it." Skeptics insist that dowsers unconciously move the rods themselves, and that ifs unusual to drill a hole and not hit at least a trickle of water. One of Schwope's former employees, a Jehovah's Witness, was deeply disturbed by his boss' unorthodox method for seeking water, Schwope said. No one knows when bull market will awaken NEW YORK (AP) - Wall Street's bull market is showing signs of stirring again after a summer-long snooze. But analysts aren't certain just yet whether it is ready to wake up. In the past few days, the Dow Jones industrial average has edged close to the record highs it reached in June. But the latest rise in stock prices has been sluggish, for the most part, with trading volume running relatively light and only a few dozen of the more than 1,500 issues listed on the New York Stock Exchange reaching new 52-week highs. "There has been some near-term improvement in the indicators," Stan Weinstein, s specialist in technical analysis of market trends, told readers of Ida letter "Tbs Professional Tape Reader" early this month, "but not enough (by far) to give the 'all deer' for the intermediate term trend." the viewpoint of market-watchers who fundamentals such as the economic climate, ens important plus of late has been a slowing in the pawth of the money supply. Most agree that this has improved chances for lower in-[ rates in the months ahead. "He said, 'Boy, if that ain't voodoo, then I don't know what is,'" Schwope said. "He said it was the work of the devil. He didn't mind if I did it, but he didn't want to be around when I did." Schwope said he even relied on his "witcher" when he was hired by the state of Texas to drill two water wells. 'I told these two state engineers, 'I know you're engineers and you probably went to college and ;'ou probably won't believe this — but watch,'" he said. "I 'witched' and one of the wells we drilled pumped 450 gallons a minute." References to "witching" date back to the Bible, in a passage where Moses strikes a rock with a rod and water gushes forth.

The Washington Post's Palin/Biden contrast is also reliably stark. This Saturday's headline: "McCain Picks Alaska Governor; Palin First Woman on GOP Ticket: Democrats Insist Running Mate Lacks Experience."
Last Saturday's headline was all what Democrats preferred: "Obama Calls His Pick, Biden, Both a Statesman and Fighter." (No subhead for what Republicans said.)
The captions under the pictures? For Palin: "Sen. John McCain said Sarah Palin, a conservative with strong antiabortion views, could best help him 'shake up Washington.'"
For Biden: "Barack and Michelle Obama, along with Jill and Joseph Biden, on the steps of the old statehouse in Springfield."
Labels in the front-page copy? Once again, for Palin: "The self-described 'hockey mom' brings a blue-collar conservatism and strong antiabortion views to the ticket and appeals to a party base somewhat suspicious of McCain."
But not for Biden: He "brought an infusion of experience and aggressiveness to the Democratic ticket....Biden, 65, a sharp-witted and energetic foreign policy expert who has held two of the most critical Senate chairmanships, bounded out onto the stage just after 2 p.m. Central time."
The pictures were roughly the same size, but if you wanted to get picky, the Obamas-and-Bidens picture was nicely posed. The Palin fist-pump shot is nice of her, but also includes McCain in the background with a forced-looking half-smile.

A boat trip on a beautiful lake
We have just come back from a lovely trip up to Lake Konigssee, and a boat trip down the lake to St Bartholoma. The lake is nestled between the mountains, and is 602m above sea level with an average depth of 150m. It is the cleanest lake in Germany, with the water being pure enough to be classified ...

EUR/AUD: next buy target - 1.4200
• EUR/AUD reversed from support zone
• Next buy target - 1.4200
EUR/AUD recently corrected up sharply from the strong support zone lying between the support levels 1.3800 and 1.3700 (this level was set as the sell target in our previous report for this currency pair). The upward correction from this support zone recently reversed down from the resistance level 1.4000 (former strong support level which reversed the previous impulse waves 3 and (1) in the middle of January, as you can see from the daily EUR/AUD chart below).
EUR/AUD today broke above the aforementioned resistance level 1.4000 – which should further accelerate the active minor upward correction toward the next buy target at the resistance level 1.4200 (standing near the 38.2% Fibonacci Correction of the previous minor downward impulse 1).

As is his tendency, Yuki Kawauchi (Saitama Pref. Gov't) led the way on a busy weekend that saw Japanese athletes in at least four competitive overseas races. Running the second edition of the Saga Sakura Marathon in scenic southwesternmost Kyushu despite having changed his workplace this week, Kawauchi took almost nine minutes off the course record and beat last year's winner Tomonori Onitsuka (Team Kyudenko) by more than ten minutes in 2:13:02 CR, his third marathon of the year and second soloing a massive CR in an amateur-level race. "I haven't been feeling well since the Incheon Half last week and have just been jogging 60 minutes a day, so I'm glad I could at least run passably," he told JRN post-race. "If there hadn't been a strong headwind between 25 and 35 km I would have been a minute faster." Like Onitsuka, women's course record holder Hiroko Yoshitomi (First Dream AC) was knocked back to 2nd as 20-year-old Hua Yang (China) took the win in 2:38:23.
While Kawauchi raced in a far corner of home, three other elite Japanese men ran overseas marathons. 2013 Ohtawara Marathon winner Tadashi Suzuki (Suzuki Hamamatsu AC) and runner-up Yasuaki Kojima (Team Subaru) ran the Paris Marathon as part of a relationship between the two races, Kojima three minutes off his best in 2:18:46 for 12th and getting screen time as the subject of some racial commentary by Britsh Eurosport announcers Martin Gillingham and Geoff Wightman, and 2:16 man Suzuki sightseeing his way to a 26th-place finish in 2:28:26. Ohtawara's 2nd and 3rd-place women Yumi Sato (Tokyo T&F Assoc.) and Ayano Kondo (Team Noritz) also lined up in Paris, Kondo running a five-minute PB of 2:43:54 and Sato jogging a 2:55:42. Directly across the channel, Tomoyuki Morita (Team Kanebo), all-time #4 on the Japanese debut lists with a 2:09:12 best at Lake Biwa in 2012, failed to make any impression at the Brighton Marathon, the first elite to fall out of the lead pack and shuffling home in 2:22:03 for 7th.
Aspiring indy Azusa Nojiri (Hiratsuka Lease) was not much better at the Prague Half Marathon, almost seven minutes off her best as she ran 1:17:19 for 13th place. On the other side of the Atlantic, 2011 Tokyo Marathon winner Noriko Higuchi (Team Wacoal) had what might have been the best Japanese women's run of the weekend on the roads, making her ten mile debut at Washington D.C.'s Cherry Blossom 10 Mile Run in 55:21 as a tuneup for the Boston Marathon two weeks from now.

BAFI Academic Seminar
Speaker(s): Dasol Kim
Date & Time: Thursday, Oct. 8, 2015 from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
This paper provides evidence that financial literacy mitigates biases in depositor behavior during depositor runs following issuance of FDIC enforcement actions. Using survey data from the National Financial Capability Study, the financial literacy of respondents nearby branches of banks receiving an enforcement action significantly reduces deposit outflows. Additional tests exploiting heterogeneity in respondent characteristics show that the effects are unlikely due to uninsured depositors, knowledge of deposit insurance, or market-related factors, but rather related to misattribution of institution-specific shocks to potential losses in insured accounts if the bank were to fail. In other words, depositors lacking financial literacy may require additional assurances of safety by running rather than relying on deposit insurance guarantees. Depositors that run do not appear to completely leave the banking system, as nearby competing banks experience deposit inflows. Finally, I provide evidence of social factors that contribute to financial literacy development, suggesting plausibility for the identification strategy.

Pinsent Masons saw its turnover increase by 4 per cent on a like-for-like basis in the 2011-12 financial year with that figure jumping to almost 39 per cent when turnover from merger partner McGrigors is added in.
Turnover for Pinsents alone was £221m, according to unaudited results, up from £212.7 in 2010-11. McGrigors, which operated a September year-end before the merger, pulled in around £74m in fee income in the full year to September 2011, making combined revenue £295m.
According to managing partner David Ryan, Asia was the firm's best performing region, posting a revenue increase of 30 per cent on last year, while the Gulf office increased revenue by 15 per cent. The UK also grew, but only by 2 or 3 per cent.
The firm has not yet released profit or average profit per equity partner figures (PEP). In 2010-11 average PEP at the firm was £400,000.
In a statement, Ryan, said: "Our results show that we're continuing to perform strongly in a difficult market. The continued investment in our staff and infrastructure has increased our ability to respond to changing client demand. The merger with McGrigors built on this, and as a combined firm we're in a strong position for growth in the coming years."
Pinsents merged with Scottish firm McGrigors on 1 May, creating a firm with more than 1,500 lawyers (6 February 2012).

Last Friday the Mountain Lakes Senior Citizens had an enticing view of Chautauqua from Anne MacDermott, a long-time Chautauqua summer visitor. She told us of intriguing and challenging programs and activities.- speakers, music festivals, recreational opportunities of every sort! Many of us groaned when we heard that, because of its popularity, reservations had to be made a year in advance.
Unfortunately, the trip planned for this Friday, April 27, had to be cancelled but Alyce Ann Myers is already planning for us to return to Lancaster early next October - Wednesday, October 3, to be exact - to see their renowned spectacle, NOAH, which so many of us expressed interested in seeing.
Then, on the following Friday, May 4, we will have the Sheriff's trained dogs demonstrate for us how they perform their crime-fighting activities. That should be an interesting sight.
Some of the Seniors had another fun experience the Saturday before Easter. They helped the Recreation Commission in running the Easter Bunny Hunt. They handed out food and drinks, admired painted faces and helped steer the young ones in the right direction. This is an annual event whereby the Seniors can help this small community we love.
There is also another interesting project afoot. A local Boy Scout, looking to perform a community service in working toward the rank of Eagle Scout, has offered to teach Senior Citizens how to use their computers. He can do classes for beginners or answer questions for the more advanced (but confused) Seniors. He is willing to arrange suitable times and places, this Spring. He must have a sizable number of Seniors for it to be considered a "community" service - so volunteer immediately. Call Ruth Harrison 334-2618, if you want to take advantage of this offer.
All regular meetings of the Mountain Lakes Senior Citizens are held in the Conference Room of St. Catherine's Church on Fridays, from 1 to 3 pm.
All are welcome. Last meeting of the season will be May 11.

Eye for an EyeMature
Chapter Forty Five: Eye for an Eye
Silas Alberec
Word Count:2010
Silas was as quick on the draw as ever as Fox lunged at Rory. The sights of his duel revolver focussed completely into the inch wide space between her eyebrows. But before he had a chance to pull the trigger Rory ducked from his vision and Fox fell with a wail. Watching the love of his life fight the girl he had lived with for the past three months was a strange and disturbing feeling, he just wished that they could have chosen a better place than this to do it! Lava rained down from the soupy heavens like globules of burning rain. Each drop an excruciating needle of fire against his skin, the largest pieces of volcanic rock fell like comets. Hitting the dusty, ashen ground with solid plunks. How they avoided them he didn't know. He didn't care. He just wanted to get Rory and get out of this hellish place, but before he could react to help her the two women were consumed in a great whoosh of ash. 'Rory!' Silas yelled arcing his gun through the ash-fog. It stung his eyes and made tears sting his cheeks. Blurred ashen shapes lunged out at him from the mist, the smell of his burning hair and sweat was enough to make him gag, and every breath he took felt like breathing in sand. He could taste the blood in the back of his throat.
'Rory!' he yelled again, tentatively stepping a few feet forward through the five inch thick layer of ash that carpeted the cliff side path they ran across. Movement fluttered through the gray snow that floated down from the beige sky. 'Rory,' he said softly flicking his eyes to the source of the movement but keeping his gun aimed in front of him. That was his first mistake. The figure that charged at him was bigger than Clayton and Tyberos; at first just a black boulder against the background of gray but soon it engulfed Silas. Swinging his revolver around Silas tried to take aim. But he was far too late. A foot the size of his forearm shout out, breaking his wrist in dozens of places and the revolver snapped backwards against his grip. The momentum of the kick transferring to the weapon and sending it tumbling through the air. All he could do was brace himself for the impact as this Rhino of a man crashed into him. Pain registered first. Pain. Then the feeling of the weight behind this titanic individual. Bodies colliding Silas managed to hold his ground for all of three seconds before the strength of this behemoth pushed him back against the cliff wall. Hands the size of breeze blocks wrapping around his throat and lifting him a good metre off the ground.
Choking beneath this man's callused grip Silas looked down and saw it to be one of the competitors from District Seven, he had never spoken during any of the press interviews...in fact Silas could only remember seeing him once. And this bastard had a face you remembered. With a head the size of an ordinary mans chest, a nasty, knotted scar running down his left cheek and a completely bald scalp it wasn't the face of a man that blended into the crowd. 'Aren't you a big fella'?' Silas choked through the Titan's grip. The huge man grunted and squeezed tighter, his enormous biceps crushing out the air from his body, closing his wind pipe as easily as Silas would crush a drinks can. Lashing out with every conceivable type of blow no matter how much force Silas put into the attacks the huge man seemed totally unfazed by them. Even using the pressure points lacing his body proved useless, they were covered in layers of bulbous muscle and every attack did nothing but tighten his grip. Coughing without sound Silas saw the blackness closing in on his vision and kicked out, he hit something that made the Titan's grip falter for just a moment. Taking the momentary lapse of strength Silas kicked out again, and again and again! Realising it was the Titan's groin Silas gave him one final shot that sent a muffled groan through the man's mouth.
Sucking in sulphurous air as the Titan dropped to his knees clutching his balls Silas dropped onto the ash laced ground and revelled in the air that filled his lungs. Twice in three days he'd nearly been suffocated! Standing up Silas jumped out of the reach of his opponent. 'You know what they say, the bigger they are,' he said smugly. Firing a devastating right cross Silas hit the man across the jaw. He forgot completely about the broken wrist and the shards of fractured bone screamed in protest against the attack. And to make it worse with all his force behind the punch the Titan didn't even move. His jaw was like hitting an anvil. And if anything just seemed to piss him off even more. Without anything else coming to mind Silas just attacked out again. But this time the Titan grabbed his hand, and with his other massive palm, smacked it against his locked elbow. The sound of the bone breaking was enough to echo through even the falling lava and the deep rumble of the bellowing volcano. Screaming as nearly every bone in his hand splintered into nothing but needle sharp fragments the pain seared through his body like fire.
Before he could react through the tears his huge palm wrapped around Silas's throat again, cutting the wail short and making Silas lash out. But it was pointless. This...beast...was far too strong. Unnaturally so. And with no weapons and a broken arm Silas was all but useless. The Titan grunted as he tossed Silas into the ash like a discarded rag doll. Fluffy gray particles lifting into the air as he crashed into the earth, floating down with the raining lava. Feeling a strange heat close to his forehead Silas looked up and saw lava rolling down the cliff path, its black carapace laced with glowing veins of bright red heat. It curdled down the path at a similar speed to a slug, but the heat it brought with it was unbearable. Silas just began to back away when a massive hand grabbed his dreadlocks and pushed him closer to the lava. With his left arm fighting against all the force of this giant Silas's whole body trembled with the effort of it all. The heat from the rolling lava seared against the skin of his cheek, burning his stubble from his face in an instant, and the closer he got to its surface the hotter and more unbearable it became. Screaming as he pressed against the Titan's attack Silas wondered if Rory was alright. He hoped she was. He hoped with his last thought that she turned and ran and never looked back.
'A little hint,' spoke the Titan, his words slow and sluggish. 'If you're gonna' kill someone, do it, don't stand there like a fool talking about it.'
'Hey ugly!' a voice spoke through the dusty atmosphere. The next thing Silas knew the Titan grunted before the thunder like crack of his revolver being fired cut through the rumble of the distance volcano that spewed its rage into the sky. Blood and brains spattered across the back of Silas's neck and into the lava, the smell of burning copper filling his nostrils as the Titan's body crashed into the ash. His headless body falling like a shot mammoth. 'Nice advice.' Rory said as Silas painfully lifted himself. Spinning he found her with rifle and pack in one hand and his revolver in the other, its duel barrels smoking slightly, her hair wild and messed, all her weight on her right leg whilst her other poured with blood. 'Silas!' she said weakly, fear and worry racking across her face.
'What?' he asked through the falling ash. Noticing her eyes running down the left side of his face he lifted a hand to it and felt something totally unnatural. His skin felt the same texture of plastic and strangely warped. 'Oh my gods.' he breathed. Behind him the plunks of the falling lava rocks became less and less frequent and soon the rumble of the volcano stopped all together.
'Come on,' she whispered limping over to him. 'Let's find a place to bed down and heal up.' as his Girlfriend took his arm Silas blindly followed her.
Together they found refuge in a hollow of some massive tree, its roots as thick as Silas's legs and the hollow high enough up off the ground to be safe from almost anyone. 'I feel like an owl,' he said half heartedly. Rory chuckled slightly as she prepared the med kit.
'A one eyed owl,' she said almost softly. She tried to contain her smile as she looked at him, he looked at her with his working eye, the other according to Rory was a milky and inflamed mess. Raising an eyebrow that was no longer present on his face Silas stared at her. 'Sorry,' she muttered, the smile still growing over her bruised face.
'Don't worry about it. You look better through one eye anyway.' he joked. For an instant he thought she was going to take offense but she quickly smiled and chuckled softly,
'I'm sure. Now I think this is going to hurt but,'
'You first,' he said lowering her arm with the health shard with his good hand. 'You're more important.'
'Silas just let me,'
'Not until you heal yourself Rory!' he forced. Her sapphire eyes glittered as she looked at him.
'Oh Silas,' she breathed leaning in and kissing him passionately. Kissing her back Silas didn't notice her arm crawling up towards his bicep until it was too late. She stuck the health shard into his flesh and the blue crystal drained itself of energy, lacing the bones together with an agony that was greater than their original breaking. 'You'll never learn.' she smiled quickly uncapping another health shard and stabbing it into his face. Clenching his teeth so he didn't scream Silas felt the skin of his face crack and splinter and become very hot and very cold all in the same instant. When the pain stopped he was left breathless and exhausted, Rory looked at him lovingly and rubbed a hand down his newly repaired face. 'There's my handsome man.' she whispered kissing him on his knew skin.
'I didn't think I'd ever left.' he joked weakly. Rory smiled. When her turn came to take the health shard Silas held onto her as she stabbed the sharp crystal into her leg. Moaning with tears rolling down her cheeks the deep wound across her calf stitched itself back together, leaving her flawless ivory in place of that crooked cut.
'We can't risk a fire,' Rory said after they spent an hour reloading their weapons and reorganising their pack. 'We'll need to huddle together for warmth,'
Silas smiled. 'Any excuse.' he winked. Rory smiled back with a wicked spark in her eyes before her face fell. 'Rory!' Silas said, heaving Rory suddenly shot to the opening of their hollow and promptly puked onto the branches below. Rubbing her back and pulling her hair back Silas grimaced at the noises, those alone were making him feel ill. 'Easy,' he said softly as she stopped. Pulling her into his arms she suddenly looked pale and clammy.
'I should not have inhaled so much ash!' she said before spitting the last mouthful out of the hollow.
'Are you going to be alright?' Silas asked hugging her close to him. He loved this feeling. Her body so close to his, the smell of her hair and feel of her skin.
'I'll be fine, I just need sleep.' she whispered. Her eyes already closed.
'Then sleep.' he whispered, kissing her on top of her head. 'I'll keep watch. Just sleep baby. We're safe now.'

NOTES: DL, Richard Seymour has been listed on the injury report since the regular season game against the New York Jets (12/26/04), when he was injured on a play away from the action by a low block from Jets lineman Kevin Mawae. While Seymour shrugged the block off as just part of the game, some questions remain as to the nature of the block.
Seymour has not been able to return to the field since incurring that injury, and is hopeful to return to the field in time for the game vs the Colts. If Seymour cannot go, then DL Jarvis Green will probably get the call.

UPDATE 3-Amaya CEO charged with insider trading by Quebec regulator
* CEO David Baazov says "allegations are false"
* Amaya says charges are without merit
* U.S.-listed stock falls as much as 27.7 pct (Adds details, Amaya statement)
By Amrutha Gayathri
March 23 (Reuters) - Canadian gambling website operator Amaya Inc's Chief Executive David Baazov has been charged with insider trading by Quebec's securities regulator.
The regulator said it had filed charges against Baazov for "aiding with trades while in possession of privileged information, influencing or attempting to influence the market price of the securities of Amaya" and "communicating privileged information."
Amaya's U.S.-listed shares fell as much as 27.7 percent to $10.30 in early trading.
The charges come about two months after Amaya said it had received a non-binding proposal from Baazov to take the company private.
"These allegations are false and I intend to vigorously contest these accusations," Baazov said in a statement on Wednesday, adding that he was "highly confident" he would be found innocent. Continued...

BRADFORD MADE light of the absence of the Paul brothers with a purposeful and efficient performance on a night which recalled the conditions under which winter rugby was often played at Odsal.
It was not a game for frills or flights of fancy and Bradford did the simple things far better than opponents whose confidence should have been high after beating Wigan last week.
Perhaps the most satisfying aspect for the Bulls' coach, Matthew Elliott, was the response of two players he left out of his team last week, loose forward Steve McNamara and centre Nathan McAvoy.
McAvoy showed his best form since arriving as a big-money signing from Salford last year while McNamara, dropped after some sub-standard performances, came back to prove Bradford's most influential player on the night.
"It was the first time that Steve hasn't been picked since he came to the club," said Elliott. "The way he handled the disappointment was to come out and play like that tonight. I'm really proud for him."
The Bulls looked destined for an early try from the moment Graham Holroyd knocked on from the kick-off and it duly arrived after four minutes, with McNamara spreading the ball, McAvoy standing up in the tackle and Tevita Vaikona powering his way over in the corner.
Holroyd halved that lead when he landed a penalty after being obstructed by Brian McDermott, but Bradford always looked the more likely to adapt successfully to the conditions and would have had a second try through Paul Deacon if the referee had not spotted an illegal play-the-ball.
It was an occasion for good, basic rugby and Bradford had by far the bigger share of play, although a clever kick by Daryl Cardiss caused momentary alarm and Damian Gibson almost squeezed in by the corner flag.
Before half-time, however, Bradford extended their lead to something that began to reflect their dominance, Danny Peacock stealing the ball in a tackle, McDermott getting over the try line only to be held up and McNamara working the scrum base to send Michael Withers over.
Some of Bradford's composure mysteriously deserted them at the start of the second half when they briefly began to match Halifax for mistakes.
They were revived by their young prop, Stuart Fielden, who put them back on the right track by storming through the middle and sliding over the try line in Gibson's tackle.
McAvoy, showing much of the potential that seems to have been mislaid over the last couple of seasons, then took advantage of a neat pass by Deacon to crash over, while there were other touches to cheer Elliott in the contribution of the teenage back, Leon Pryce, in the latter stages of a match that was now firmly under control.
"I'm delighted and really proud of them, because it was a great team effort," said Elliott. "I hear a lot of talk about other clubs' team spirit and I probably play ours down, but there's a great atmosphere among the players at the moment.
"Our defensive effort was superb. They never looked like scoring."
For Elliott to be able to say that about a potentially tricky fixture like this shows just how solid this Bradford display was.
Bradford Bulls: Spruce; Vaikona, McAvoy, D Peacock, Withers; Boyle, Deacon; McDermott, Lowes, Anderson, Jowitt, Forshaw, McNamara. Substitutes used: Donougher, J Peacock, Pryce, Fielden.
Halifax Blue Sox: Cardiss; Gibson, Bouveng, Craig, Pinkney; Holroyd, Clinch; Broadbent, Rowley, Skerrett, Gillespie, Bloem, Chester. Substitutes used: Marshall, Moana, Clark, Seal.

WAYNE — The Wayne Lady Pioneers defeated the Mingo Central Lady Miners on Friday evening for the sectional championship. The Lady Pioneers won 8-0 in five innings.
The Lady Miners were digging deep until they hit a pocket of quick sand in the fourth. One thing went wrong , and then another, and then another. The more they fought back the worse things got and what seemed like winnable game turned into a heartbreaking loss in two innings.
The Lady Miners held tough in the first inning, despite a slow start on offense. Wayne put two scores on the board in the first but the Lady Miners were not phased. Parson and Followay crossed the plate for Wayne and the Lady Miners dug in and made sure that was all they got.
The next two innings were scoreless, thanks to fantastic defensive efforts from both teams. Mingo Central's Kara Lester found herself feeling the pressure when the Lady Miners were closing out the third inning. Lester faced the batter with two outs and runners on second and third. She worked into a 2-2 count and sent the Lady Pioneers back onto the field with a heater down the middle. Swing and a miss by Wayne's Fischer.
The Lady Miners were gaining momentum and realizing that two runs would be easy to make up. That's when the quick sand struck. The Lady Miners had a single and two quick fielders choice outs to send them back on the field. Queen, Parsons, and Sanson scored back to back to back runs for the Lady Pioneers and Central lost composure.
Wayne continued to get into scoring situations and the Lady Miners kept giving up runs.
Head Coach Patrick Cline said, "The last part of the fourth we allowed them to get some hits and runs. We made just enough mistakes that it hurt. Wayne is a team that you can't make those types of mistakes on." Cline continued by saying, "I thought the game was called a little tight on our pitcher but, that's just the nature of the beast."
For some of the Lady Miners this was their last dance as the queen of diamonds. Cline announced he would be back next year as the Lady Miners head softball coach.
Cline said, "Very pleased with the girls, they all got better and better. We lose three seniors but we have some girls on the bench who are ready to step in. If we can develop our pitching by next year, I believe we will be okay.Our batting was something we had worked on all year, that was our biggest improvement this season." Cline continued by saying, "We batted well but they fielded well. You have give it up to Wayne, they earned every bit of it.
The Lady Miners can hang up the cleats and put the gloves in the garage.The game was scheduled to be played Tuesday but the weather held the game off for almost a week. The boys sectional tournament will begin next week however, the weather does not look promising for next week either.
Scores by inning:
Mingo: 0 0 0 0 0 – 0 2 2
Wayne: 2 0 0 3 3 – 8 4 0

Boudreaux Getting Major Interest
Class of 2015 forward Evan Boudreaux, Lake Forest (HS) High School, has had an impressive and ultra productive spring for Team NLP.
It translated to multiple offers from DePaul, Iowa and Iowa State to go along with his offers from Boston College and Northwestern.
Now the 6-foot 7 forward continues to pick up interest on the first day of unlimited recruiting.
"I've already talked to Stanford, Michigan, Michigan State, Iowa, Georgetown, Harvard, Virginia, Butler, SLU, and Boston College."
Butler had already offered two true centers in the class and could be looking to pair them with a bruising rebounder like Boudreaux.
Smits Also Busy
Despite being on the road in Illinois, 2015 center Derrik Smits had a busy morning with calls from different schools.
Smits, who already has an offer from Butler, fielded calls from Butler, Michigan State, Boston College, IUPUI, Valparaiso, and Tennessee.
With his rapidly improving game and high ceiling the Zionsville (IN) HS big man could pick up offers rapidly during the summer.
Although with his interest with Butler, who Smits has followed growing up and lives just north of Indisnapilis, could pull the trigger at anytime.
Fleming Has More Interest
Reported earlier that Butler was active with 2015 shooting guard Andrew Fleming earlier the morning and it looks like interest is only picking up from other schools.
Clemson and Tennessee have joined the action.
Will catch up with Andrew this evening to see what Coach Johnson had to say to the talented scorer this morning.
Update: Butler had a good conversation with Fleming and will be watching him at Peach Jam. Looks to be in position to add an offer.
Where would Butler stand with an offer? "Top 5," said Fleming.
We'll watch as the situation develops.
Jordan Popular Target This Morning
Plainfield East (IL) High School guard Aaron Jordan has been busy as well.
Jordan has had calls with schools like Marquette, Iowa, Illinois, Butler, Georgetown, Tennessee, and Georgia Tech.
The Illinois Star shooting guard played well this spring and recently picked up an offer from Wisconsin, which made eight total.
He could see his recruitment blow up quickly and have offers from all over the country.

Men are running behind a truck, trying to jump up and grab on to it, so they can hitch an illegal lift into Britain. It's a self-evidently dangerous game. Like the "super-tramps" in Depression-era America who jumped on and off moving goods trains to get from city to city, these migrants are risking life and limb in search of a better life, or at least another place to be poor in.
Eighty years on, who fails to feel sympathy for the victims of economic and political world turmoil in the 1930s who left their homes or were driven to the adventurous lifestyle described by WH Davies in his Autobiography of a Super-Tramp? Perhaps one day these truck-jumpers will be celebrated as heroes or mourned as victims. But right now there is little compassion for those who come across a continent or a world in search of a life in Britain: no curiosity about motives, no pity for need, no recognition of potential.
Why are the nerves of empathy severed when it comes to immigration?
This picture was published on the front cover of the Daily Mail today, over the headline Dying to get into Britain. Its context was not calculated to make British people feel for the men in the picture, but apparently to urge us to fear them, for it was connected by the Mail with claims by MigrationWatch UK that 500,000 newcomers will arrive in Britain in the next five years and that EU migrants into Britain can boost their income with benefits totalling up to £300 a week.
How is it that the Mail, pushing fears of immigration and the EU as leading Little Englander Nigel Farage prepared for his second televised debate against Nick Clegg, can put this moving and concerning picture on its front page in full confidence that it will not make people want to help these men or even know anything about them but add to widespread longings for a "tough line" on immigration?
Britain is suffering an atrophy of imagination about our place on a complex and interlinked planet. It is terrifying to see how easily economic anxiety closes minds. Perfectly nice people feel justified in narrowing their focus to themselves, their families and "this country". This is a monstrous betrayal of our best traditions. The other day I visited the RAF museum in north London. Many of the people getting emotional in front of Spitfires were Polish – naturally, for Polish pilots played an absolutely crucial part in the Battle of Britain. And we owe Poles – for instance – nothing? But even that is the tip of the iceberg. Britain could have avoided war with Hitler. We were not forced to fight – we chose to. On behalf of a wider humanity. That is what made it our finest hour.
This, by contrast, sometimes appears our meanest hour. If EU migrants are vilified and slandered, the plight of Africa's poor ceases to pluck heartstrings the moment the poor stop suffering in their proper place, faraway. Once again historical amnesia fuels a cosy viciousness. Britain is the last place on earth that can claim to be a little country with no responsibilities except itself. There is no country – not even the US or USSR – so deeply entwined with The Rest of the World.
You don't need to be a pious liberal EU fan to see that. Believe the rightwing historian Niall Ferguson, whose book Empire shows more clearly than any Marxist ever did how profoundly imperial our story is. The British empire shaped the modern world and mixed our history with that of almost everywhere on earth. There may even be causes for pride in parts of that global British story, as historians such as Ferguson claim. What there is not, and cannot ever be, is any excuse for any British person still enjoying the benefits of a history that was imperial from the Tudor age onwards ever to turn away from the outside world and claim to owe it nothing.
What a miserable, pathetic distortion of Britain is this petty fear of outsiders. Surely, looking at this photograph, we can see the bigger picture. One of the most famous poems in the English language recognises that "No man is an island / Entire of itself / Every man is a piece of the continent / A part of the main."
If John Donne could see this in the 17th century, why is Britain succumbing to an island's delusions of solitude in the 21st? The seas are smaller now than they were then. The world is just a tunnel or airport or a click of the internet away. There are no borders to humanity, and the fools and bigots who want to build them are the true threat to Britain's grand cosmopolitan nature.
Ignore their words. Look at this picture. The Mail has accidentally published the truth.

A true sense of caring is created by a combination of colors that are fragile, soft and tender. Arrangements in pastel shades and the softest yellows, peaches, warm pinks, creamy whites and subtle greens make us feel safe, snug and loved. Consider a nurturing floral arrangement for a new mother, a sick friend or a grieving loved one – anyone who would benefit from a caring, loving embrace.

'K, last chapter guys ^^, sry I've been doing such a poor job on updating...but at least I finished :D
Enjoy, ~Kuro-chan
Chapter Three: The Teacher Quits?
Kaname and Yuuki instantly noticed something wrong on the third night that they walked into the classroom: the human teacher that was supposed to be at the head of the classroom was gone.
Kaname and Yuuki exchanged confused glances.
"He probably couldn't stand us…" Aidou said with a tiny smile and a shrug.
"So do we just hang out this period or something?" Rima asked.
"Well, it's not like we can do anything without the teacher." Shiki answered Rima while putting an arm casually around her.
Right when the Night Class was trying to decide what they were going to do for the rest of the night, the door to the classroom banged open.
Yuuki and Kaname's eyes widened first.
The headmaster strolled happily up to the podium in front of the room with an annoyed Zero Kiryuu tailing him from behind. Aidou struggled to hold back a laugh. Kain elbowed his cousin from one side while Ruka kicked him under the table. They were all waiting for the purebloods' reactions.
"Zero…" Yuuki whispered with pure surprise in her voice.
The headmaster began speaking in his dramatic flair. "The teacher we had quit yesterday night after the failure of the second lesson, so I will be teaching instead today. And most of you should know my son, Zero Kiryuu. He will also be 'observing'."
"Observing?" Rima whispered to Ruka, "What's he supposed to mean by that?"
Ruka looked like she swallowed a laugh, "I'm guessing it's 'Kaname-sama and Yuuki-sama 'do it'' while Kiryuu is the bystander."
Rima giggled and glanced to see Shiki's reaction. To her surprise, he wasn't laughing like the rest of the class. "What's wrong, Shiki?"
Shiki frowned, "Nah, I just kinda feel bad for Kiryuu for getting dragged up in such matters and seeing your worst enemy make out with your lover."
Rima took Shiki's arm, "You're so soft-hearted sometimes, you know that? I'm sure the Headmaster was joking, right Ruka?" Rima turned to Ruka for support.
Ruka shrugged, "The Headmaster is crazy enough to do anything. He probably doesn't get the whole point of these classes are to persuade 'kids like us' to not have sex."
Rima raised an eyebrow, "You mean he's going to teach us…teach us…how to have sex or something?" There was a look of horror on Rima's face.
Kain joined their little conversation, "Well, it shouldn't be that bad…"
"Of course it's bad!" Ruka and Rima voiced each other at the same time and Ruka continued, "It's going to be the Headmaster teaching us! Has he ever touched a condom before?"
"Of course I have!" The Headmaster interrupted the vampires' conversation, "But their father…" The Headmaster pointed to Kaname and Yuuki, "…blew up before I had a chance to do anything." His bold declaration left the room in silence as the class soaked up what he had just said. That meant Juuri Kuran-sama almost…
Kaname and Yuuki both sighed in disgust as the silence was broken by Zero, "I'm leaving. This class is making me sicker by the minute."
"You have no idea how lucky you are for being able to leave." Ruka mutter under her breath.
But the Headmaster stopped Zero from exiting the room. "You can't leave yet! We haven't taught these kids anything!"
Yuuki thought she saw a vein in Zero's neck snap. "Then you can teach them, damnit! Why do you drag me here?"
The Headmaster gave Zero his best puppy face, "But…but I wanted to teach with my cute son."
"Oh god," Kain murmured on the other side of Ruka.
Ruka rolled her eyes, "Now do you see what I mean? We don't need to learn anything from the Headmaster and…Kiryuu." She shuddered involuntarily.
After dragging Zero back up to the head of the classroom, the Headmaster turned to the class and cleared his throat. "So, we will begin lessons today. First, I need someone to demonstrate our topic of discussion today." The Headmaster looked around, "Shiki? Rima?"
Shiki gave the Headmaster a menacing glare, "Hell no!"
"Kain? Ruka?"
"Count us out." Kain shook his head.
The Headmaster turned to his last hope of success in class, "Yuuki? Kaname?"
"Headmaster," Yuuki answered, "This isn't the place for demonstrations." Behind Yuuki, Kaname was trying to hide his infuriated face but his aura proved to everyone around him that he was roaring with rage.
The Headmaster sighed, "I guess I've got no choice but to use my last alternative: Zero, please demonstrate your skills with Yuuki!"
"WHAT?!" Kaname, Zero, and Yuuki cried at the same time.
From below, Shiki met Rima's eyes, "I really want to leave now, Rima. I hate to see the next scenes that are going to take place in this class."
"You have no idea how much I agree with you right now; two guys doing it with one girl is going to get pretty crazy." Rima answered Shiki.
Kain looked over to his right at his cousin. Aidou hadn't move an inch and was watching the scene at the head of the class with a sense of admiration on his face. "Hanabusa, do you want to ditch class along with the rest of us?"
Aidou shook his head, "No, I think I'll stay."
Ruka smacked Aidou on the face, "Don't be stupid, Hanabusa. Do you want to watch Kaname-sama having…"
Aidou had a dreamy look on his face, "Yes…" He answered Ruka before she finished.
Kain took Ruka's hand, "Let's just go; Hanabusa has always been the problem one in our family." With that, Kain and Ruka slipped out the classroom.
Shiki looked at Rima, "What do you think? Should we go too?"
Ichijou came up from behind the two. "I'll go with you too! By the way, are you two planning to kick me out of my room tonight?"
Rima put her finger to her lips as if in deep thought. "No, I don't think so. Since Aidou wants to witness porn, Ruka will probably be in her room tonight, so Shiki and I can be free my room tonight."
The three of them exited the classroom along with a few of the other Night Class members leaving the only ones left to be Kaname, Yuuki, Zero, the Headmaster, and Aidou.
Shiki yawned lazily and fingered through his hair, "It's okay, Aidou can tell us all about it in the morning…"
Gotta tell me what you think...*wink, wink*
