Chapter 7: Rush HourMature
Geoff had calmed down and still lay on the ground, crying.
We weren't sure what to do, as we could never in our entire lives understand
the pain he felt.
Burt had worked up the courage to speak. "I… I'm sorry…
truly. But you know we have to go". I could tell he regretted saying this, but
I knew that eventually someone would have had to.
Geoff slowly stood up, shaking his head. "I… I am sorry as
well… I should not have…" he bowed his head. "Let's just get going".
We began slowly trudging down the hallway. I couldn't
believe that after all we have been through that we lost yet another person to
the zombies. Maria had been the youngest of us and never got the chance the
live, much like all of the others we have lost today. I knew now that I
couldn't let another zombie take the life of someone in our group. I don't care
how I go about it; I just know I'll stop them.
Geoff was out of it the rest of the way, and I couldn't
blame him. After what had happened, he probably didn't care for surviving much
more. Truthfully, neither did I. Although you lived to continue your life, the
people that died really leave an impact on you. Seeing Maria's corpse made me
wish it had been me Chase killed, seeing Harry torn up made me wish that was me
instead of him.
I heard Rachel gasp and let out a little laugh. She pointed
ahead. "Look!" she exclaimed. Right at the corner of the hallway was what we
had been looking for this whole time, the thing we had lost people to reach: a
science room.
"We're almost home free" Burt said, "at last".
I couldn't believe what I saw either. "Freedom's around the
bend" I said, my hopes of survival finally up to an all-new high. We were going
to make it. Here was the science room, just a quick dissolving material and
we'll break the window and slip out.
Trent took a step forward, then walked cautiously into the
science room. "It's just as messed up as the other classrooms, but the burners
with the propane are thankfully intact".
Hannah looked around the corner. "No zombies nearby either.
I can't hear or see them".
Burt clapped his hands. "They'll be here though without a
doubt. The brawl we had earlier definitely reached them. We have maybe a half
an hour window". He started running into the room. "Let's get moving people!"
The rest of us piled in after him.
Burt had been right: those zombies wouldn't stay in place,
and eventually a horde would be upon us. We had maybe thirty minutes to make a
dissolving material of some sort.
Geoff began heading the process. "Ok, we're gonna need a
strong acid to break through this".
"Like what?" I asked him, searching through the liquids in
the science storage room.
"Just get the strongest one you see. We don't have that much
I found a green liquid that looked pretty tough. I tore a
little piece off of my shirt and put it into the liquid. I backed up in shock
as the material dissolved inside of it. If this didn't work, I wasn't sure what
I tossed the bottle to Geoff who caught it and examined it.
"I know this. This liquid was discovered just last year, it's called Protranis
Z. It should work out".
Mixing the strong acid with other materials that we got for
him, Geoff began making the dissolving material. It was amazing watching how
fast he worked. He had started sweating something awful, but then again I
would've cracked under so much pressure. He still stood his ground, creating
the liquid that would deliver us to freedom. After about ten minutes, he was
near completion.
"I'll be done in about five minutes" he said, his hands
looking like a blur as he worked.
"We have about fifteen minutes, we'll be fine" Trent said.
That later became a huge understatement.
A sudden thought popped into my head: if we escaped this
building, then what about the zombies? If they could get out of here, they
would start a mass infection. Even the army would be hard-pressed against such
creatures, and that's assuming they would win the fight in the end.
"Guys, what about the zombies?" I asked them "We leave the
building, there's no doubt they'll follow".
Burt face palmed. "God Damnit, we can't leave them" he
cursed. Geoff looked up at us.
"If you guys are making a bomb, you better start now" he
said. "I still have to finish this"
"Can you at least tell us how to make one?" Hannah asked
him. Geoff looked up at her incredulously.
"You really think I KNOW how to make a bomb?" he asked her.
He shook his head. "I have no idea. None. Zip".
"You have to know something" she said. Geoff sighed.
"You guys know the basics. Propane, a match, fuse, that
stuff. Listen, I have to make this, so you're on your own".
Hannah turned to look at us. "We'll need propane; as much as
we can get our hands on. A string for a fuse, and a match, and I think that's
"We'll need some other stuff from the storage room" Rachel
said, "if we want something big".
I nodded. "Yeah, go ahead".
"There are still some matches in Mr. Tursow's room" Trent
said. He ran off to go get some.
I walked around with Hannah to grab propane tanks. I looked
around and spotted about six of them under the burners, and there were most
likely more than ten in the storage room. "Hannah, get the tanks in here and
gather them up by the wall" I said, pointing towards a giant white spot on the
wall. The wall had broken last year for reasons unknown, so putting explosives
near a weak wall wouldn't be a bad idea.
She began collecting the propane and putting it by the weak
wall. I went into the storage room and opened up a lower cabinet. Bingo; around
fourteen tanks of propane laid before me. Just as I went inside, Rachel ran out
with the liquids she obtained. She began adding them on to the bomb. Burt came
over to me and helped carry the tanks over to the wall. As we did this, Trent
ran in with a box of matches. There was a look of panic on his face.
"They're coming" he said, breathing heavily, fear in his
voice. "I could hear them coming up the stairs". We all knew what this meant:
zombies were on the way, and our time was running out.
"I thought we had more time" Burt said. "We need to make
this as quickly as we can".
Geoff stood up and admired his work. "Alright… This should
work". Our group followed him as he carried the substance over to the window.
He poured a little bit of it on the edge of the window where the white
substance was applied to hold it in place. "If I am correct" he muttered as he
put the liquid in its place, "this should work just fine". We waited in silence
for a minute or two for the liquid to work. Finally, we saw the white substance
gradually begin to melt away! Trent began trying to open the window, and after
enough of the substance was dissolved, he was able to throw it open.
"Here we are!" he said. "Freedom, just a little drop away".
"Uh, we have to drop? That's a little far" Rachel point out.
I clenched my fist.
"You've gotta be kidding me if we have another problem" I
Burt jogged back over to the bomb we were making. "We'll
figure that out later. If we don't, let's just drop. Oh well" he said. "A
broken leg is a hell of a lot better than the alternative".
"I'm not sure about that" Steven said. "I don't think I'll
be able to jump out of a window and be as better off as you guys would be".
"Please let's just make the bomb first" Hannah said,
beginning to put more propane in place. We all helped her in this task until
all of the propane was grouped together around the substance that Rachel had
made to help the explosion.
"Just need a string like a fuse" I said. "Then we can light
this up and get out of here".
The sounds had finally reached my ears. The sounds we had
become so used to over the time we had been inside of this school. The zombies
were approaching and would be upon us in a few minutes' time. Everyone else
began to hear the sounds as well and started panicking.
"Oh god, here they come" Rachel said. "We need to get out of
here. Now!"
I applied a string to the explosives and grabbed a match.
"Working as fast as I can" I said as I started lighting it. Burt and Trent
began walking out of the door.
"If they're coming" Trent said, "we'll hold them back".
I opened my mouth to protest, but Steven stopped me.
"They know what they're doing. They'll defend us as we
prepare" he said.
I cursed as the first match lit up then quickly dissipated.
It had been a dud. I tried lighting yet another match, but it refused to do so
as well. I could hear the zombies roaring and screaming. I heard Burt yelling
and the sound of metal hitting flesh. The creatures were upon us now.
I finally got one match to catch fire. "Yes, yes" I said,
quickly bringing it up to the string. Before I could do that, the zombies
barged into the science room! One of them leaped at me, and I was defenseless
to fight them off. Geoff kicked the zombie off of me, but he was taken down by
another mutant. Steven tried combating them with his metal poles, but one slice
to the arm and he went down as well. Rachel, too, was taken down, along with
Hannah. All of them were pinned and I was the only one that could save them in
time. I scrambled onto my feet and tried to get to them, to save them, but I
was tripped up by a zombie. I punched him back and kept moving forward, but it
stabbed me in the knee and tossed me aside. Was this, finally, the end of our
campaign for salvation?
My vision became blurred as I began accepting the reality of
defeat. There was no doubt that Trent and Burt were dead or dying. Rachel,
Geoff, Hannah, and Steven were all on the ground, pinned to the floor by
zombies. Then there was me, the one who could have saved them all, flat on my
back as well. Well, we made it this far, right? I guess we had a good run at
Suddenly I saw a dark figure walking at a brisk pace towards
me. None of the zombies made a move to stop him. Was this just another
hallucination? Was the Devil coming to drag me down to Hell? As the figure drew
nearer I noticed that it wasn't the Devil… it was, in fact, Harry.
He kneeled by my side and put his hand on my shoulder. "Come
on, get up man" he commanded me. "You're not done yet". And just like that, he
disappeared. It was then I understood: he was giving me a message, giving me
strength. Yeah, I know it's stupid, but I still got the message I needed. I
wasn't done yet, no. Far from it.
I punched the zombie that was attacking me. I got up on my
feet and followed up with a roundhouse kick to the mutant's face, knocking it
backwards into the teacher's desk. Another zombie took a slash at me, but I
avoided it and threw him over my shoulder. I saw Rachel pinned by the window
alongside Hannah. Moving quickly, I punched the zombie off of Hannah, then I
kicked the one on Rachel off of her. The creature tumbled out of the window. I
heard an audible 'splat' sound. I looked down and saw the zombie had impaled
itself on a sharp pole lying by the outside wall.
Steven and Geoff were still around here. "Stay here!" I told
the girls as I ran towards the zombies ready to kill the others. I lunged at
them, tackling them off of their figures. Geoff quickly got up now that he was
free and kicked the head of one of the zombie's heads so hard it collapsed
under the force. I turned around and helped Steven to his feet. He was still
okay, but the bandages covering his wound from the locker room were coming off:
he needed to get proper medical attention sometime soon.
I looked around at the others. "I think there might have
been a rope or something in the storage room" I said, thinking of something
that could help some us down to the floor. "Hook it up or tie it up quickly,
then go down. Do not hesitate at all". I started running off towards the door.
Hannah called after me.
"Wait, what are you doing?"
I turned to face her. "I have to help Burt and Trent out. I
have to" I said.
She ran over to me. "We can do it together then" she said.
We both ran outside the door and looked around. There were zombies everywhere.
I spotted Burt and Trent backed up in a corner with multiple scratches and
I ran off towards them, Hannah beating off the zombies
chasing after me. I was able to get to them, punching and kicking the mutants
in my way. "Over here!" I shouted at them. They began swinging wildly at the
zombies as they made their way towards me and Hannah. After powering through
the massive crowd of zombies, we made it inside of the science room. Thankfully
the others had followed my instructions and had gone down the window: they had
even found a rope.
I gestured to the rope. "Get down! Now!" I shouted at the
"What about you!?" Hannah asked.
Now was the time to deliver the bad news. I bowed my head.
"Someone's gotta light the bomb". Hannah shook her head.
"I… have to. Either that or the zombies run free" I replied.
She didn't stop staring at me.
"You've got to get going, we can't delay any longer!" I
Burt pulled her back and eased her down the rope. He took
one last look at me, nodded, then went down. Trent followed him back.
I couldn't believe what I was doing, but early on in the
bomb making, I had realized that someone else would have to perish, another
person would have to die. And I decided right then and there it was me. I don't
know why, but I somehow knew it had to be me. Or I thought it should be me… I'm
still not sure. You know that sense to be brave in tough situations? I guess it
turned on for me.
The zombies were already closing in on me. I beat them back
and dodged their strikes and ran forward towards the fuse. They kicked and
punched, scratched and slashed, but I just ran through it all as though it
didn't matter. One of the mutants stabbed me in the shoulder, but I didn't have
time to mourn the loss. I quickly lit a match and dived for the string that
would blow this place sky-high. I heard a fizz as the flame caught the fuse. I
smiled, then muttered "game over, zombie bastards".
I knew in about ten seconds I would be completely
obliterated. I laid patiently, preparing for the final blast- when something
pulled me back. I was lying down one second, the next one I was being dragged
out of the window and down the rope. I turned to see Trent bringing me down the
rope. I couldn't believe he had risked his life for mine, but there were no
time for a thank you card. He pushed me forward as we reached the ground,
shouting one simple, yet important word; "Run!"
I wasted no time; I made for the trees at the end of the
school parking lot at full sprint. My body seemed to have grown wings and flew
me over there. I guess the pressure of a bomb ready to explode in a few seconds
makes you run like a superhuman. Trent and I had made it about three-fourths of
the way to the parking lot.
"We're not gonna make it!" Trent shouted to me. He dove
behind a car, me doing likewise. Hopefully we would be well protected against
the blast.
Just a split second later, the school exploded in a bright
red color. It had been there one second, then a giant black cloud the next.
There was a shower of fiery debris in the general vicinity of the area. The
grassy ground was now lit ablaze and blackened. Only a few blocks of the
building's foundation remained standing. Some of it later toppled over.
Trent and I slowly stood up. Miraculously we had avoided any
damage from the large blast. We observed the carnage, then turned around and
ran back to the others.
I shouted out triumphantly. "We did it!"
Burt laid back on a tree. "We're done with this… finally
Geoff smiled, and offered a simple "Yeah. We made it". He
would never get over the death of Maria back in the school, and especially the
fact that her body was obliterated in the explosion.
Trent took a deep breath, then collapsed on the ground. "We
made it…" he gasped. I think he started falling asleep.
Rachel had been silent, then started silently laughing.
Eventually, all of us started laughing as all the whole adventure we had this
morning was nothing but a sick jock played on us. Finally we were done with the
zombies, with the deaths, with the cuts. We were all done, and I guess we just
wanted to laugh it out in celebration.
Hannah walked over to me. I could tell that she didn't
really approve of me acting like 'Tyler the Brave' again, and truthfully
neither did I. I had just decided to. I owed it all to Trent for saving me back
I held her close, she likewise. It all felt like that scene
in the locker room back hallway.
"It's all over" I told her, my voice barely a whisper. She
"Took long enough".
We stood there for a few seconds as the others celebrated.
She sighed.
"I can't believe after all of this… life just goes back to
I held her closer to me. "Much better than that" I said.
Our faces slowly moved towards each other until our lips
touched. We were in this embrace for several seconds, and it felt more like a
beginning then closure. Life wouldn't be the same anymore. Hannah and I would
be together. I'd have so many more friends along my side, as well as others
that would no longer be there. I knew for sure that we would all be scarred
with the memories of this day for the rest of our lives, and I also knew we'd
probably be forced to recall the events that had taken place to day for years
to come. As I stood in Hannah's embrace, one question still lingered in my
head: "what happens next?"
Steven must've had the same thing bugging him. "Listen,
sorry to interrupt our celebration, but we do we do now exactly?"
I turned around to face him. "I'm… not sure" I replied. That
wasn't the best response now wasn't it…
Trent jogged over to us, looking extremely anxious. "I can
hear sirens coming this way" he reported. "If they find us here-"
"The police are coming?" Rachel interrupted. "We're doomed
if they get to us".
Well great, now the law force was after us. I knew
eventually they would be on their way, but I assumed we would have more time to
get out of here. The only plan we had at this point was stay and get arrested.
If we ran from the police, we'd either get shot or locked up for life.
"We better bail" Burt said, "There's no way in hell they'll
believe our story. They'll write it down as bullshit and lock us up for life if
we're lucky". I immediately protested the idea.
"You think we should RUN from the police!? If you don't
think they'll believe us, they definitely won't believe us after we try to
outrun them!" I exclaimed. How exactly we were going to be proven innocent of a
crime when we run from the scene of it? This definitely wasn't Burt's best
Hannah backed me up. "I'm not too hot on this idea" she
said. Coincidentally, it later turned out Hannah and I were the ones locked up.
Oh the irony.
"Remember that you're dragging me along" Steven said. "I'd
rather get arrested and get proper treatment than try and outrun them. I doubt
that I could if I tried anyway".
"We can't roll the dice with the police" Trent said, "Too
much is at risk for that". He shrugged. "I guess the only option IS to run".
"Let's just find another way around this" Geoff said, trying
to think of a better solution. We waited a bit as he had a few minutes to
I could've sworn the sirens were getting louder. Powered by
desperation, I had finally come up with an idea, though it involved me throwing
myself into the fangs of danger again. "I'll run from the cops to divert them.
You guys can escape while I do that".
Burt cursed. "Tyler, we don't need any more of this" he said
I shook my head furiously. "This time there is a need. You
guys need to get out of here".
The blare of sirens had slowly begun to grow as we stood
there discussing what to do: I was sure of it now. By the sound of it, they
were maybe a few blocks away. We had maybe a minute to clear out of here, which
definitely was not enough time.
I pointed in the direction of the sirens. "Hear that?" I
asked them. "That is the sound of police forces closing in on us. If I don't go
out there and cause a diversion of sorts, we'll all be locked up, and that
wouldn't be good now would it?"
"I really hate it when you do this" Hannah said.
"There really is no other way" Burt muttered. He nodded at
me. "You best get moving then".
I stood there for a few seconds, looking at my group members
one last time. Then I ran off.
I began jogging down the back parking lot of the school, as
that is where I expect the police to come into. I not only heard the sirens
now, but I saw the blue and red lights piercing through the trees; they had
arrived. As I had predicted, they came rushing around the bend. The drivers had
obviously seen me and sped after me. I heard one of them pull out a megaphone
and shout at me. "This is the police! Turn yourself over or we will use force!"
Of course, I had to run away from them though, to allow the group to get away.
So I turned around quickly and began running much more quickly. They would
overtake me eventually, but by that time the others should be safe.
I heard the "click"-ing sound of a gun being loaded,
something I didn't anticipate. They were gonna shoot me! I began running
faster, the events in the past few hours flashing by, my life running alongside
it. This was it then; after getting out of a zombie-infested high school, I get
shot by the law force. I hope the others made it out fine…
There was no way that I couldn't have heard the extremely
audible shot go off. When death is coming your way, you can hear and see
anything. I felt the bullet imbed in the back of my knee. My vision become
blurry; I couldn't see where I was going. I slowed down abruptly, suddenly
feeling like a drunken idiot. I stumbled onto the pavement and passed out. One
last comforting thought went through my mind: I was still alive.
I clapped my hands. "And that's how I wound up here" I
"So you ran from the police to allow your cohorts to escape.
That is, at least, a few days in the can" Officer Hardy said. I was so happy to
see his face back in the interrogation room. The chief must've gotten sick of
his attitude though.
"Hardy, ever since this boy was proven innocent, you did
everything you could to turn that around" the chief snapped. He stood up and
took a deep breath. "This is basically wrapped up now" the chief said. "Go
ahead and start on your report. It's a little before ten, and it needs to be
done by twelve".
The officer nodded. "Yes sir" he muttered. He proceeded to
walk out the door, slamming it on his way out. Thankfully, that's the last I
ever saw of that particular officer.
The chief walked over by my side.
"I must say, the things you talked about are incredibly
traumatic" he began. "It seems like something out of a sci-fi movie script, yet
at the same time… it's true". He started pacing around the table. "The fact
that something like this existed deeply worries me" the chief continued. "If
something that can infect people so easily could come up again, the results
could be… catastrophic".
He leaned in closely to me. "Now tell me" he said. "You
destroyed everything in that blast… correct?"
I nodded. "Of course".
He shook his head. "If a disease like this resurfaces-
"It won't" I assured him, "They're all gone now. They're all
"Hmph. I suppose so then".
I sat in an awkward silence for another minute. I expected
to be let out soon enough, back to my friends and out of this dark place. I
decided to stand up and just walk out on my lonesome, but then the chief went
"This will never end for you" he said. I looked up at him.
That wasn't exactly the best thing for him to say.
"What exactly do you mean?"
"Well" he continued, "this is just step one. There's no
doubt that more organizations will approach you and ask you to regurgitate the
details that you have given to me of that horrific experience. I can only block
off so many". He took a deep breath, then delivered the worst news I've had all
day. "The military is already asking for you and Hannah Stoffer to tell them
the very same story you told me. Now that is one organization I have no chance
of holding off".
I slammed my fist on the dark table. "They can't do this to
us" I muttered, cursing the military. I had just been through the worst
experience in my entire lifetime. I had seen people literally torn to pieces by
mutated students, burnt by former friends, and morph into zombies themselves.
And now the military wanted me to get my little book and sit down for story
"They can, whether you like it or not" the chief replied.
"They are dying for this sort of information. If, and I'm just saying if; if
this disease resurfaces, they'd need to know what to do, or know about it.
That's why they're asking for you and your group. They also want you as soon as
possible, which unfortunately means you leave tomorrow morning".
I decided to try and make a deal. "Just have them take me
then" I pleaded. "I don't want Hannah to have to go through this too. They can
deal with me".
The chief scratched his head. "I'm not sure if I can do
that. But" he said, holding up my hand to stop my protest, "I can at least
try". I nodded, satisfied that at least he would try.
The chief began walking out the door, then stopped. "For
now, you can go back out into the lobby. I'll release Hannah too for the
meantime. But you two cannot go home; you're staying here".
"What about my friends?" I asked him. He sighed.
"They really should go home, unless they are really bent on
being there with you" he said. I smiled, grateful for the chief's generosity. I
still disliked how he broke the news to me.
"Thank you" I said. I was about to go out the door when I
stopped to tell the chief something.
"Hey, if you see Officer Hardy around" I said, "tell him I
said hi". The chief gave off a small chuckle, the turned down the hallway in
the direction of another interrogation room. He walked inside, said a few
words, then exited. He waved goodbye at me, then left to his office. After he
did so, Hannah emerged from the interrogation room.
She ran over to me and embraced me. "Thank God I'm out of
there" she said. She released me, then told me what had happened.
"There was this one, large officer, and all he did was yell
and yell at me. I kept trying to tell him the details, but he didn't stop. At
one point…" she paused. "He slapped me".
"They can't do that!" I said angrily. Hardy was worse than I
had been led to believe.
"It's fine… he got chewed up anyway" she said smiling. "At
least I'm out of there".
We both walked out of the dark hallway together and into the
main lobby. I noticed our group lying around the place; Steven was leaning back
on a couch near the front door, his eyes slightly closed. Burt was leaning
against a wall, waiting for us to arrive. Geoff had fallen asleep on a chair by
the front desk. Trent was standing next to Burt, and he smiled once he saw me.
Rachel was also sleeping next to Geoff.
Burt walked over to me and Hannah. "I had half a mind to run
in and get you myself" he said, anger in his voice. "That guy at the front desk,
Jakobs, kept holding us off and off and off. It was getting on my nerves".
Trent walked over and joined them. "You alright man?" he
asked me. I nodded.
"Ever been in one of those interrogation rooms? They're
pretty comfy".
Trent laughed. "Yeah. Like a coffee shop?"
Hannah chimed in. "No decaf in there".
"That's why they were so high then" Burt muttered. We all
had a good laugh at that.
Geoff and Rachel had woken up and now joined us over at the
hallway exit. Steven slowly worked his way towards us.
"Sorry. Must've dozed off" Geoff said.
"Don't worry, I would have too" I replied.
"So you guys are fine?" Rachel asked us. Hannah and I both
"Don't worry, it's not like they tortured us or something"
Hannah said.
Steven had finally reached us. "I finally got the treatment
I need on that cut" he said. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly,
"Hurts almost as bad as when I got it. But at least I'll be able to walk… in a
few months".
Geoff sighed. "They didn't really give him the proper treatment
Steven leaned over and whispered to me. "Geoff wanted to
make sure I was treated properly. The poor doctor probably never heard so many
comments and complaints in his whole life".
"He's just looking out for you" I said. "Since he bandaged
you up he wanted to make sure you turned out okay".
He shrugged, then gestured to his new crutches.
"I ditched the old metal poles and got these new crutches.
They're actually pretty comfortable".
"Mind if I borrow them?"
"Ha, good luck. I may be crippled, but I'll beat up a wimp
like you" Steven joked.
Burt clapped his hands. "How about we head down to my place,
hmm? All of the sodas are on me".
"I don't know, I'm pretty hyper with caffeine" Rachel
confessed. Burt shrugged.
"After all we've been through, I think it would be good to
let loose for one night" Burt replied. Rachel nodded.
"Then sure, I'll have a few. If I'm bouncing off the walls,
I'll blame you then?"
"Fair enough" Burt said, smiling.
The others began to leave, laughing and joking around.
However, Hannah and I were forced to sit back and watch as they departed. The
military just couldn't deal without a report for another day. Instead, they
just wanted it bright and early in the morning. Oh joy.
The group turned around and saw us still staying behind.
"Umm… you guys coming?" Steven asked us. I bowed my head.
"The military wants me to tell them what happened… Hannah
too. We're not allowed to leave the station because they're picking is up in
the morning".
"They can't do that" Burt said. "Not after what you; what
we've been through, they can't do this". He started off towards the hallway. "I
ought to give them a piece of my mind".
"Burt, it's fine" I said, bringing up my hands to halt him.
If he really did try to get through, it wouldn't have done much.
"Actually, Tyler, there's no need to stay" a voice spoke up.
I looked over my shoulder to see the chief standing there. Surprisingly, he
looked incredibly angry. I knew he probably had a short fuse, but he looked as
though he had reached his boiling point. His mouth was trying desperately to be

"Military just called. Turns out that the order came from a
commander without the consent of his superiors. The best part of it is, he was
just going to throw you into custody" the chief said as calmly as he could. "The
idiots of the world… and to think they could be in the military!" He sighed. "I
think I should just go home and start drinking. Today has been one of those
"Indeed it has" Hannah said, smiling. She turned to face me.
"So we're free to go?"
"For today, at least" the chief said. "The military will be
looking into this no doubt, and they may ask for you to recall the details once
more. But for tonight," he waved his hands, "you're free to go".
"Well there's some much-needed good news" I said. Things
were finally, truly, looking up.
"Yeah, let's get moving!" Rachel cheered. Surprisingly,
Hannah and I hesitated to go at first. I guess that we had been in this station
for so long we thought we were still chained to a desk.
"You lovebirds coming?" Trent called after us, laughing.
Harry would've have been so proud of him for saying that.
Not wanting to waste any more time, we joined up with the
others and started off.
It was time for something to compensate for the horrific
events of today. A time where we just hanged out, carefree, forgetting what had
happened for just a few hours. A time where we'd laugh and joke, cry over those
we can't share the moment with, take a drink, laugh it off. And about time,
too. I think we all need a reprieve one day from all of the awful things in the
world, a day where we can have fun and be oblivious to the terrible things that
were present in our lives.
I'll never forget those zombies. I never will. There is no
way someone will come up to me and say they are nothing but science fiction. I
had seen them with my own eyes, fought them with my own body. I had seen people
killed at their hands, I had seen people morphed into infected themselves, and
I had seen desperation and pure fear.
But hopefully life will start getting better for me at some
point. Or maybe I'll get invaded by an army of giant Cyclopes. Or maybe a giant, evil gorilla will attack
the community. Or maybe…
You know what, forget it. I'm at Burt's place now; I'm just
gonna tune these rampaging thoughts out. As I said, everyone needs a reprieve.
I raised my first glass of soda in the air, and took one large sip. Life can be
such a bitch, but when the good moments come around you gotta enjoy it.
Or is it…

Yesterday the UK's number-two producer revealed that underlying pre-tax profits had slipped from pounds 20.3m to pounds 19.8m in the year to 29 April, despite a 7 per cent rise in turnover. The problem for Britain's cider makers is that, although the market is growing at a faster rate than for any other alcoholic beverage, most of the increase is at the low-margin, economy end of the spectrum and in the take-home trade, where the big retailers call the shots.
Taunton has been aggressive in winning back market share, raising volumes 15 per cent last year against an overall market up 8 per cent. Sales to the five big supermarket groups are up 68 per cent, which has clearly put pressure on "opportunist" producers in the economy sector, such as Merrydown. But the extra sales have been won at the expense of operating margins.
The company is tackling the problem by cutting costs - the profit figures mentioned are before a pounds 4m exceptional charge expected to eventually produce annual savings of pounds 7.5m. It is also trying to push through price increases and has high hopes for new brands such as Diamond Ice and the joint venture to sell US Miller Draft lager in the UK.
But innovative brands such as Brody and Red Rock have not been conspicuously successful in the past, and Taunton is facing rising apple juice costs. Kleinwort Benson's forecast of profits rising to pounds 214m this year puts the shares, up 4p to 179p, on a forward multiple of 13. Unattractive.Reuse content

Finding good deals is an important part of saving money, but did you know that you can also use that skill to make money? Yep, you sure can. [Read more…]
These days we all spend a lot of time online. If you aren't getting paid for that time, you're missing out on free money. Because there are actually quite a few companies that want to pay you to do whatever it is you do online, whether that's watching way too many cat videos or visiting this site. If you've been looking for a way to earn extra money, without doing extra work, this is a way to do it. Check out these five companies that are willing to pay you to surf the web. [Read more…]
When my kids were little, I used to participate in a lot of surveys. It was a fun way to earn a bit of extra cash after they'd gone to bed, and sometimes I'd even get to test new products. One time we were sent a case of diapers to try out. That was awesome.
But then life got busier (as it tends to do), and I kind of got out of the habit. I just had too many other things taking up my time. But I think I need to get back into the habit. Because with a 12 and 14-year-old, I spend a lot of time waiting in the car for kids, and that would be the perfect time to answer surveys. Unlike back in the day, you don't have to be tethered to a desktop computer and a dial-up connection to do it. You can actually complete surveys on your phone or tablet. Go figure. And you know what, I think the new way is a lot more fun. Clicking answers on a touch screen just seems like less work.
Whenever I talk about surveys, I hear from readers who want to know how much they can make. They're hoping it'll be enough to hang up their day job. And I'm here to tell you, the money will never be that good. But, if you sign up for several survey sites, and complete the surveys they send you, you could make enough to buy all of your Christmas gifts, to cover the cost of a family vacation or to make a dent in your debt (think extra credit card or mortgage payments).
So, after 14 years of survey-taking, which survey companies are my favorite? Here's the short list [Read more…]
It's always been my goal to have a yard sale where we sell absolutely everything. I mean, isn't that everyone's goal? It takes so much work to round up the stuff you want to sell, to price it, to haul it outside, to arrange it on tables and racks and then sit there baking in the sun while you try to sell it all. The last thing you want to do after all of that is box everything back up and then figure out what you're going to do with the leftovers. So, when we had a yard sale this weekend, I finally got serious about selling everything, and I'm excited to report that we got to hang up our first ever sold out sign. Woo hoo!
Our strategy for having a sold out yard sale is really simple, and it something that you can easily replicate. Here's what we did. [Read more…]

Reviews – In the President's Office: The Diaries of L. John Nuttall, 1879-1892
Deseret News, Dennis Lythgoe
L. John Nuttall acted as a temple recorder to LDS Church President Brigham Young, then as private secretary to Presidents John Taylor and Wilford Woodruff.
In that unique role he traveled often with LDS Church presidents, attended hundreds of meetings, answered private correspondence and overheard many conversations, which he recorded in his diaries.
It's not surprising that the editor and the publisher consider Nuttall's diaries to be one of the most significant in 19th-century Mormon history. Hence, "The Diaries of L. John Nuttall."
Nuttall served as a missionary in Great Britain, then as a bishop and stake president in Kanab, and also became heavily involved in financial decisions concerning church property, including Brigham Young's estate. Finally, church leaders called him to stay in Salt Lake City permanently, a decision he accepted, although he preferred living in Kanab.
As a polygamist, Nuttall lived underground for at least six years, beginning in the 1880s. He was bothered by long absences from his family, including his 18 children, and he suffered various health problems: a face rash, which he treated with sour cream and stewed cranberries; a stomachache he treated by drinking "about a wine-glass full" of squeezed carrot juice. Nuttall also had a strong aversion to the sedentary life of office work. When President Woodruff suffered abdominal problems, Nuttall waited on him, shaved him, kept his journal and attended to some of his office duties.
He also served in a number of community capacities such as a regent of the University of Deseret and as an incorporator and stockholder of the Deseret News.
He died at the age of 70.
Most of Nuttall's diaries and papers reside in the L. Tom Perry Special Collections of Brigham Young University, while his work regarding the First Presidency can be found in the LDS Church archives.
Nuttall was most often likely to write in his diaries about business dealings, political maneuvering and church-leadership decisions. The editor calls the 28 diaries "a rich cache," especially with regard to the activities and business of the church's First Presidency.
This is important because the papers of the First Presidency are still unavailable to researchers — and Nuttall was the only secretary to the presidency who kept a diary.
Nuttall portrays John Taylor as "strong-willed and demanding," but who also had a "warm and personable side" and displayed "kindheartedness, generosity and compassion."
Nuttall's diary is very important for understanding the atmosphere and discussions that led to the Manifesto issued by Woodruff, which banished the practice of polygamy in 1890.
The diaries demonstrate that Nuttall was a devout Mormon who took all his offices and callings in the church as a sacred trust. He prayed frequently and considered his life to be primarily a spiritual undertaking.
Jedediah Rogers and Signature Press both deserve kudos for shepherding such a dynamic work to publication.
Journal of Mormon History, Stephen C. Taysom
The depth and breadth of published primary sources widely available to interested readers remains one of the most appealing aspects of the field of Mormon studies. The treatment offered by Jedediah S. Rogers of L. John Nuttall's journals, co-winner of MHA's Smith-Pettit Best First Book Award, makes a useful contribution to this growing body of materials. Nuttall, a Liverpudlian convert to Mormonism and a nephew of John Taylor, began his work in the LDS Church administrative world in 1877 at age forty-three, assisting Wilford Woodruff with the systematization of the temple endowment. Following the death of Brigham Young, Nuttall became secretary to Young's successor, John Taylor, and eventually to Wilford Woodruff. Rogers's abridgement of the diaries covers the rocky period from 1879 to 1892.
Nuttall's diaries open a window onto these turbulent years of LDS history when the church faced increasing external pressure to abandon plural marriage, wrangled over the proper role of political parties in Utah, struggled for statehood, and weathered internal quarrels within the highest echelons of church leadership over such issues as the succession of Wilford Woodruff to the church presidency.
Nuttall is a rather terse diarist, and readers should not expect to find many lengthy entries or much extensive commentary. Such a style can be frustrating to the reader who wants to know more. In June 1884, for example, Nuttall records that he assisted John Taylor in "comparing the temple ordinances with the Bible & the new translation as found in the Pearl of Great Price" (152). Nuttall says nothing about what led to such an endeavor, nor does he comment on the conclusions they reached. Even a topic of such profound significance as the Woodruff Manifesto of 1890 (Nuttall was a polygamist himself) receives only a clinical summary of the main points: "We receiv[e]d a telegram from Prest Woodruff containing a declaration or manifesto from him in regard to the recent report of [the] Utah Commission … in which he denies their statements and declares himself as willing to obey the laws of the nation on that subject & to advise the members of the church to do likewise" (418). No doubt this circumspection reflects Nuttall's role as an observer of the hierarchy in which he felt more comfortable recording information than commenting upon events.
There are one or two notable exceptions, however. Occasionally we are afforded a glimpse into the unscripted and private world of LDS authorities, as when Joseph F. Smith said he would rather be sent to "Vandiemen's Land" (the Australian penal colony in Tasmania) than accept his new calling in the First Presidency (338). Nuttall also notes with satisfaction another conversation he had with Smith in 1889, in which Smith recounted a meeting of the Quorum of the Twelve at which apostles Moses Thatcher and Heber J. Grant disparaged Nuttall for being "officious." Smith assured Nuttall, however, that he had defended Nuttall's honor to the apostles. In response, Nuttall sounded an unusually personal tone in his diary, describing Smith as "a true friend," "a noble character," and an "honest and true man" (378).
Nuttall also occasionally reflects with emotion on darker themes. John Taylor's declining health and eventual death profoundly impacted Nuttall, and his entries on this subject are significantly more intimate and less formal than usual. Nuttall notes with great tenderness, for instance, that Taylor spent a good portion of his final days deliriously mumbling "to remember, to remember" in the presence of many of his wives and friends. Taylor's death also provided Nuttall with an opportunity to display his indignation at the treatment of polygamists by government officials. In fact, Nuttall blames Taylor's final "failure in health" on the "close confinement and inactivity of [Taylor's] body" occasioned by his years of hiding from federal officials (218). Nuttall's sensitivity to what he viewed as unjust persecution provides the emotional touchstone for much of the personal material that makes it into the journals. Nuttall himself spent years in hiding and describes being "overcome" with emotion when he is finally reintroduced to some of his children in 1891 (468).
Although Nuttall deals frequently with the topic of plural marriage, he offers little in the way of theological reflection on the practice. More common are entries relating to requests for permission to marry additional wives and brief notations about the government's various legal efforts to curtail polygamy. A more prominent thread that runs through the tapestry of Nuttall's record is the rapidly increasing institutional and bureaucratic nature of Mormonism in the second half of the nineteenth century. On nearly every page, Nuttall's diaries highlight the development of the burgeoning church bureaucracy that would become so central to Mormonism in the twentieth century. Nuttall handled voluminous requests for everything from second anointings and temple recommends to divorces.
These diaries also witness the increasing challenge of managing human resources in a growing church. A notable example involved the process of staffing temples. Prior to the dedication of the Logan Temple, Nuttall recorded a meeting in which John Taylor decided that temple workers, both at Logan and St. George, would be called from the general membership of the church to sacrifice their time and resources "the same as we do with our missionaries to the earth" (143). While such a development may appear pedestrian, it is in fact an important marker of the increased emphasis on the temple as a constant, rather than an occasional feature of Mormon religious life—a mark of modern Mormonism that dates to the final quarter of the nineteenth century.
Rogers provides a superb introductory essay that demonstrates his broad familiarity with the complex political, social, and religious worlds that form the backdrop for the diaries. Moreover, Rogers deftly foregrounds the most significant contributions of the diaries, something helpful for those readers who would prefer not to read through the entire volume from start to finish. The work is annotated copiously and scrupulously, and the use of footnotes instead of intertextual editorial marks spares the reader unnecessary distractions. Some readers may be disappointed to find that Nuttall's earliest and latest diaries are not included in this published version. The limitations of space no doubt precluded the reproduction of the entire Nuttall corpus, but Rogers is to be commended for selecting material from the years that saw the most dramatic events unfold.
Despite the generally excellent editorial work and the significance of the subject matter, several factors may limit the book's popularity. First, the Nuttall journals have been available to researchers for many years at the L. Tom Perry Special Collections at Brigham Young University, and excerpts have been published in other venues, most recently as part of the 1998 Signature Books-produced New Mormon Studies CD-ROM. Specialists in the field of Mormon studies are therefore likely to have already encountered the Nuttall diaries elsewhere. Second, nonspecialists may find Nuttall's style lacking in drama and narrative flair and may find more attractive such famous and chatty contemporary diarists as the voluble Wilford Woodruff. Nevertheless, the publication of the most significant of Nuttall's diaries in a single and superbly edited volume represents an important moment in the study of nineteenth-century LDS history, and it should be welcomed into the libraries of institutions and individuals serious about Mormons studies.

1. Re: OTM Set Password takes very long on Server 2008834498 Jan 23, 2012 11:14 AM (in response to Detlef)Nothing related to Oracle XE because it's purely script execution and I guess nothing related to HW power...
Most likely due to object identification.
Is that the same version of the web browser?
Can you share the script or at least share the steps before & after and maybe the report?
What is the application technology?
How do you launch the script? From OTM or manually or command line?
Is the auto-complete feature on or off on your machines?
Have you tried manually (i mean not from openscript) to run the scenario from the server?
How are you connected to your VM? Do you leave the session opened?
How do you perform the test?
Lot of questions I know but not easy to give you an answer....
2. Re: OTM Set Password takes very long on Server 2008Detlef Jan 24, 2012 12:34 PM (in response to 834498)Dear Jean-Baptiste,
yes a lot of questions, but i need help and have to deliver first answeres ;-)
Unfortunately the IE version on Client is 8.0 and on Server it's 7.0.x.
I start the script direct (manually, pressing the run button) out of the OpenScript Tester (perspective)
I try to run it when disconnected but sometimes failed and here i recognize the first time this long time usage ?
So for this performance investiagtion i decide to allways connected (Remote Desktop Connection) to the server, to see what happens on the sever desktop!
And clearly the IE start normal the userID is entered direct after that but before jump to Pwd Textfiled it takes and takes and .....
I have installed for testing OpenScript on my client and on the server, the repository is on an share on the server.
So i use exact the same script for my test on server i did disable the whole IE security settings , on client not company rules disdallow this on production machines.
However disable security settings on server, no changes !
Now the script part which make the trouble,
after wait +30 sec. and enter the pwd the script run on both (server/client) very fast ?
"/web:window[@index='0' or @title='about:blank']")
web.window(4, "/web:window[@index='0' or @title='OSIRIS']")
"/web:window[@index='0' or @title='OSIRIS']/web:document[@index='0']" +
"/web:form[@name='loginForm']" +
"/web:input_text[@id='login' and @name='login']")
"/web:window[@index='0' or @title='OSIRIS']/web:document[@index='0']" +
"/web:form[@name='loginForm']" +
"/web:input_password[@id='password' and @name='password']")
"/web:window[@index='0' or @title='OSIRIS']/web:document[@index='0']" +
"/web:form[@name='loginForm']" +
"/web:input_password[@id='password' and @name='password']")
-- This takes 32 sec. ??
Here i try to enter the pwd direct, so i use instead .setPassword(deobfuscate("XXXXXXXXXXXXX")); for testing .setPassword("XXXXXXXXXXXXX");+
unfortunately this did not help ! I thougth the deobfuscate takes the time+
"/web:window[@index='0' or @title='OSIRIS']/web:document[@index='0']/web:form[@name='loginForm' or @index='0']/web:button[@name='ok' or @value='
\r\n
\r\n
Validate

' or @index='0']")
Hope my answeres helpfull
and thanx for your feedback
3. Re: OTM Set Password takes very long on Server 2008Detlef Jan 31, 2012 8:49 AM (in response to Detlef)Hello,
meanwhile i did some more investigation!
I also use another script connecting to an application which use different technology behind
and also here the pwd entry stop the script and create an delay!
I have an systemacount where the OTM_Agent run,
so i was able to connect using my personal account on the same machine!
I start processexplorer and here i see following effect:
The TCP connection to the application machine is established as soon as the script start* on port 62935 & 62936,
however as soon as the pwd entry is requested the status state is changed to close wait.
Then when the script goes on, the TCP port has changed for that machine* to 62938 & 62939.
Which tell me inbetween an established connection refresh, this happens always when run the script ?
Here i am lost as i am not an Server Expert maybe there exists a possibility to keep an existing connection and avoid this effect but....
I assume now. this Testserver is is restricted to our local Intranet !
And i hardly belife my performance issue is related to security settings on our testservers.
never the less maybe my assumption is wrong and someone here can put some ligth in my life ;-)
thanx in advance
4. Re: OTM Set Password takes very long on Server 2008834498 Feb 1, 2012 9:19 AM (in response to Detlef)well i have no real idea :-(
You told us it only happens on the setPassword, right?
Have you tried to take a look if there is a Javascript on the login page, generating some specific codes/whatever?
Is there any integration with ldap/sso?
5. Re: OTM Set Password takes very long on Server 2008Detlef Feb 6, 2012 8:38 AM (in response to 834498)Hello Jean-Baptiste,
thanx for fedback, i did spend some very deep invetsigation.
Check IP Routing, TCIP setting etc.....
Your idea about sso/ldap.
Yes all this exists for both applications,
however SSO disabled for application to test and LDAP happens later in the database,
and also the same on my client but here no issue !
After all my investigation, i am very convinced the problem is related to the test server.
Our global infrastructure team having some strcit settings for test server and here i wont play to muuch and to deep with network settings,
there i need an IS Serveradministrator or someone who really knows behind our network and alternate DNS-Server
Never the less i still investigate here and try to find a way ;-)
thanx for all your input here
have a nice day

Smith slipped on a Dominique Wilkins jersey for his first dunk of the final round, against the Phoenix Suns' Amare Stoudemire. Then Smith unreeled a signature "Human Highlight Film" move, a windmill hammer throwdown, with Wilkins watching.
"I kind of surprised him with that," Smith said of the Wilkins jersey. "He didn't know I was going to do that, but I was going to do a dunk symbolizing what he did in his previous years."
"I think the whole jersey thing kind of made everybody a little nervous," said Wilkins, who won the dunk contest in 1985 and 1990. "Like I said, he shocked me with that one. That was outstanding."
The dunk earned Smith a perfect score from the judges, as did his final dunk of the night, a 360-degree, left-handed jam.
Stoudemire had raised the stakes with his final dunk of the first round, bouncing a pass off the backboard to Phoenix teammate Steve Nash, a former soccer player who headed it back toward the basket for Stoudemire to slam home on a 360.
"I knew I had to pull something out of my hat, you know, to get by and win," Smith said.
With the victory, Smith prevented a Phoenix sweep of the All-Star Saturday events.
The Suns' Quentin Richardson won the FootLocker Three-Point Shootout over finalists Kyle Korver of Philadelphia and Voshon Lenard of Denver by making his last nine shots to score 19. Korver scored 18 and Lenard, last year's shootout champion, scored 16.
"I knew I had to make them," Richardson said of his last nine shots, "and it was a situation where I knew I had time on the clock because I shot so quickly in the first couple of racks. So I just tried to slow down and really concentrate on those and take my time."
Earlier in the evening, Nash won the Playstation Skills Challenge over Denver's Earl Boykins in a record 25.8 seconds.
Nash completed the final dribbling, passing and shooting course nearly 12 seconds faster than Boykins. Nash was the leader after the first round at 31.4 seconds. His only mistake in the final was missing his first chest pass, but he got the second one and breezed through the rest of the skills after Boykins needed four tries to hit a three-pointer.
A Phoenix team comprised of Diana Taurasi, Shawn Marion and Dan Majerle won the RadioShack Shooting Stars competition to start the night.
Majerle capped the competition by hitting his second shot from halfcourt to help Phoenix beat Denver by 16 seconds.
"It's fun — we even got Thunder Dan back in the equation," Nash said. "It's great for the organization."
Stoudemire and Nash, who kicked the ball soccer-style to Stoudemire for his final dunk, nearly completed the sweep. But Smith, who opened the dunk contest with a Dr. J-like flying dunk from just inside the free-throw line, had history on his side.
Both the NBA, in 1984, and the ABA, in 1976, held their first dunk contests in Denver. In recent years, the contests have been criticized for their lack of originality. Cleveland All-Star LeBron James passed on Saturday's competition, saying "all the dunks are taken."
Smith, though, proved that what is old can be new again.
"He put the excitement back in it," Wilkins said.

My Family
I was born without a family.
I moved through life searching.
Craving parents, brothers, sisters, lovers
who wouldn't abandon me as I turned ugly
who would be bound to me by blood
who would be proud of my accomplishments
who would stop me from doing stupid things
who would love me
even after realizing I am so far from perfect.
You found me
and you loved me,
like I never thought a human could.
Your mother became my mother,
your father became my father,
and we built a haven together,
my own home in this place
I felt so lost for so long
but finally I belonged
and I felt so free, so beautiful, so lovely.
But then, we were only a family
when I was good,
and as I broke and made mistakes,
I lost all my love and was replaced.
And now I stand, outside, so stupid in my shame
to ever think I deserved to be treated the same.
I wish it could have been me
to share your eternity,
but I'm just a magazine you picked up off the floor
in a waiting room,
and was left behind so soon.

Heading west to Bordeaux
Another long bus ride, but the lovely green scenery made the time pass quickly. The bus company i used this time is punctual, and arrives on time.
The first day out starts out as a lovely day, so plenty of walking to be done. Bordeaux is so different to Lyon. The buildings seem to be a lot older. I am impressed at what i see, and the more i explore the more impressed i am. It is a very low rise city due to the weakness of the subsoil. The ...
An amazing day in Bordeaux
... We saw the Garonne way back at Moissac, when we were walking by the canal, and it was the river beside Auvillar, but now it is enormous! And tonight, after calling back at the hotel to change and drop our purchases, we went out to a fantastic brasserie that Amr had read about and been recommended. Another quite long walk - Amr announced that we had walked 20 kms today round the city, so I guess our legs don't really know that we have finished our real ...

There are no skyscrapers here due to weak subsoil; this explains why it is the largest city by area in France.

The soundtrack to indie hit Juno pushed 26-year-old Adam Green and his Moldy Peaches lyricist Kimya Dawson into the mainstream. When the then-mid-teenager and twentysomething Dawson first joined forces, they were part of the anti-folk scene that gives folk songs a punky edge. But the indie fans here hoping for cutesy Moldy Peaches songs might be disappointed; the duo have made a pact not to play their band work at solo shows. Besides, Green is keen to show off the crooning baritone he has been developing ever since.
The fancy-dress wearing Peaches were accused of being a novelty act. Tonight, Green's donned an Ozzy Osbourne-inspired outfit, with tassels on the sleeves, so when he flaps his arms, they look like wings. The act takes a good dose of imagination, invention and guts – all of which Green has in abundance. His new album, Sixes and Sevens, is possibly his most inventive to date.
A few months ago, Green played solo at the Union Chapel to an audience that included the Mighty Boosh's Julian Barratt and Chris Morris. Tonight is a noisier affair, and Green brings out the cha-cha-chas and crooning of his latest solo album with a full band and two gospel singers. With all this bravado, you would expect a celebratory atmosphere, but not tonight. "You guys are so well-mannered. It's almost scary, like a barrier. It's weird."
You can't blame it on English manners. There is a distinct feeling that Green is having a lot more fun than his audience. Against a huge backdrop of his face (his self-titled album cover), when Green introduces his band's names, and adds, "I don't need an introduction because I'm amazing", it doesn't prompt the type of screaming and adulation that he is accustomed to.
What lets the show down most of all is the weakness of the new material. Just as the album lacks a cohesive feel, hopping uncomfortably from one musical setting to another, tonight's set splices his idiosyncratic scruffy cuteness with crooners like "Morning After Midnight", and throughout he melds an Elvis theatricality with Leonard Cohen-style poetics. It's his older songs such as "Jessica Simpson", "Gemstones" and "Novotel" that receive the biggest reaction from the crowd, but even these scruffy indie favourites get the new smooth sheen and gospel inflation. Mid-set, Green takes his guitar to play "No Legs" and "Dance With Emily" solo. That these two songs are the best of the night, shows that perhaps Green should stick to what he does so perfectly: scruffy anti-folk songs on his acoustic guitar.

There isn't that I am aware of. You could make a "template"and then add to it as needed but you would have to create the document from scratch.
Does anyone else know of a way?

The two-metre crocodile was removed from a trap one kilometre downstream from the falls.
It is the third crocodile removed from Wangi Creek this year.
Rangers will survey the area for more crocodiles over the next three days before deciding whether to reopen the falls to swimming.

The Luxury Visionaries 2016
An Aladdin's cave of treasures, trophies and discoveries awaits all who travel to Maastricht in the Netherlands over the next two weeks for The European Fine Art Fair (Tefaf). It is that sense of impending discovery that explains why this is one of the fairs best attended by museum directors and wealthy private collectors, from Dutch burghers and Middle Eastern sheikhs to American philanthropists looking to endow a museum with something special.
Tefaf always has a few surprises up its sleeve. This year, Renaissance sculpture dealers, the Tomasso Brothers, from Leeds, are calling on a childhood friend to inject extra energy and debate onto their stand. Fellow Leeds student Damien Hirst is providing them with an extraordinary display of conjoined calf skeletons, paintings using insects, and a Black Sheep with Golden Horns standing in a formaldehyde solution in a glass and steel tank. The sheep is another version of a work made for his Beautiful sale at Sotheby's in 2008, which sold to fashion designer Miuccia Prada for £2.6 million. The version at Tefaf will be priced at £2.25 million.
"I think showing my work with older works in this way unexpectedly highlights more similarities than differences and works well for all the art on the stand, reminding us that all art starts out in life as contemporary art," says Hirst.
Tefaf is a place for dealers to upstage the salerooms, particularly by demonstrating their superior knowledge and wisdom; they are constantly outsmarting the auction rooms. Last year, Old Master dealer and Rubens specialist Fergus Hall spotted a red chalk drawing of a putto or cherub on the website of a small auction room in Dorset catalogued as "Dutch School" and with an estimate of £1,000. "I had a confident hunch that it was a Rubens," says Hall.
Someone else also had a hunch, but it was not as confident as Hall's, and Hall ended up paying £23,000 for it. He then showed the drawing to several Rubens experts, including Christopher Brown at the Ashmolean, Jane Turner at the Rijksmuseum, and David Jaffe at the National Gallery, and all concurred that it was a study from circa 1618 for a Rubens painting of the Virgin and Child surrounded by the Holy Innocents in the Louvre Museum. Only very few such studies have survived, says Hall, who is now asking £150,000 for it.
Another work to have been missed by the salerooms, this time a major London auction house, is a classical portrait of a young Italian woman signed by the Swiss artist Léopold Robert, and dated 1820. The painting had been touched up by so many restorers over the years that, by the time it appeared at auction last year, half of the original painting had been painted over, including the signature. The auctioneers described it as "Italian School" and estimated it at under £5,000. However, it was spotted by the Munich dealers Daxer & Marschall, who bought it, had it cleaned and found the signature.
Further research uncovered correspondence about the sitter, a Neapolitan outlaw's bride, and the region in which it was painted from the style of dress. It was also discovered that the painting was bought in 1821 by Lord Kinnaird, a "grand tourist" from Scotland with a soft spot for Byronesque romanticism, and has remained in the British Isles until now. A pupil of Jacques-Louis David, Robert is famous for introducing classicism to Switzerland, but, having died in his thirties, his work is rare.
At Tefaf, the rediscovered painting will be priced at 80,000 euros. Also slipping through the saleroom net is a previously unknown portrait by the late-16th century court painter Frans Pourbus the Younger, described simply as "Flemish School" by an Italian auction house and bought last year by London dealer Mark Weiss. Weiss has probably handled more paintings by Pourbus than anyone, and his opinion has been backed by Blaise Ducot of the Louvre Museum. That will be priced at 150,000 euros.
Then there is an ancient Greek amphora found at auction in France by antiquities dealer Rupert Wace, who has just identified it as the work of the renowned "Rycroft Painter". Adding prestige through its provenance, Wace has also established that it once belonged to the Prince of Canino, brother of Napoleon Bonaparte, "the Medici of antiquities collectors," says Wace, who is pricing it in the region of £250,000.
These examples are just the tip of an iceberg. A related feature could equally concentrate on the number of works, like one of Hogarth's early painting of The Beggar's Opera, that have come from long-established private collections. Little wonder, therefore, that among all those collectors at Tefaf, saleroom staff can be spotted in their legions – seeing what they have missed.

Leading Spanish firm Cuatrecasas has taken a step towards opening its first office in China, winning a Shanghai practice licence and applying for a national licence.
The firm expects the central Chinese government to award the national licence in July and to be able to launch its own office in Shanghai by the end of the year.
Cuatrecasas chairman Emilio Cuatrecasas told The Lawyer: "Each year there is more investment from Spanish companies into China. We want to accompany our clients there."
The firm has been using the Shanghai office of UK best friend Herbert Smith since May last year, sending out senior lawyer Omar Puertas to lead a team of three lawyers.
Cuatrecasas has made international expansion a focus of its strategy this year, and is considering establishing a small presence in Mexico in the office of relationship firm Creel García-Cuéllar y Müggenburg.
The Spanish firm has also approved a new wave of partner promotions, making up 19 new partners to take the firm past 200 partners in total.

ABOUT COPPER MOUNTAIN: Known as the 'Local's Favorite,' Copper Mountain is the largest ski and snowboard resort in Summit County. It is also the only ski resort that features naturally separated terrain, allowing beginners, intermediates, and experts to ski and ride on their own distinct areas of the mountain. Its central location (situated between Breckenridge/Keystone to the east and Vail to the west) makes it ideal for the guest who wants to get out and enjoy other resorts as well.
It's also known as the Local's Favorite. Perhaps that's due to Copper's long, steep mogul runs, or its ample above-timberline open bowl skiing.
You can get your skis out of your heated ski locker located on the first floor and be at the American Eagle Lift within a minute.

text: I finally got some pictures from last month's big tailgate party at FedEx field. A random Cowboys fan wandered by our tailgate and took some group pictures of us. I gave her my business card and asked her to send me the photos, and she finally did! So here they are in all their glory. Hope everyone can make it to next year's tailgate... it'll be the sixth annual one, I believe. Hostile is already scheduled to be our special guest!

An orkut User's Story
July 12th, 2007 | Published in Google Orkut
While we get a kick out of building the orkut site, it's our users that truly make the product. It's those of you that find old friends, make new ones, stay in touch and share your lives on orkut every day that make spending time on orkut so exciting. On our site we offer you the chance to submit your orkut stories to us, and we get some truly amazing ones. This week we'd like to share a story that comes to us from Marta Serrat, an orkut user for the past 3.5 years.
"Along with other orkut users, I used several orkut communities to get people involved in a campaign against violence, impunity, and corruption in Brazil. In 3 weeks, we managed to gather people in 21 cities all over the country, marching on simultaneous parades on 05/21/06. The event became known as the Brazilian Dignity Day."
If you have a story you'd like to share with us please submit it; who knows-- we might even post it on the blog!
