HI all,
My main interest is 160-10 HF DXing, 6 and 2 mtr included, building equipment and contesting. I came in 12th for my call area for the 2008 CW WPX CW contest, which is probably my best achievement for contesting. Also won first place in Ohio in the 2012 ARRL 10 meter contest. I participated in the 2009 WPX CW and had 3 times as many contacts. Ragchewing on weekends on CW, mostly just to relax. SSB usually only during contesting and DXing, been hamming since 1973.
As a novice I was WN8QEZ in 1973 then upgraded to WB8QEZ and finally got NS8O extra in the mid 80's. So I am a 20 wpm Extra Class. Actually I can operate at 35 wpm or greater. CW is my prefered mode, as that's real amateur radio to me.
Antennas at the moment? 2 ele Quad tribander FOR 20 -10 meters. Other antennas: 96' per leg dipole that I feed on all the lower bands;. Also I have a 30 and 40 meter dipole at 42 feet. I have a 4 element quad for 6 meters and various 2 meter antennas. Antenna elevation is 1000 ASL feet in Meigs county, southeastern Ohio. Nice and RF quiet at my QTH.
I used to power my station and a few lights via a homemade wind generator that fed a 330 AH battery pack at 12 VDC. The picture shows me working on the 1.8KW wind generator. A couple of years ago a storm caused the welds on the tower to fail and the 80 pound generator came crashing down... within 3 feet of my truck! Now I still have the batteries and use it for standby power on the grid.
I was a Volunteer Examiner for about 10 years and helped many people get their ham licenses. It was a rewarding experience and I recommend it.
I was a member of Athens County Amateur Radio Club.. I used to live in Athens county since May of 2003 but I live in Meigs county now, moving in to my new county May of 2004. As of 10 July 2015 I have joined Sunday Creek Amateur Radio Federation (SCARF) and it seems to be more suited to me as a contester and a club that just has fun... after all that is what a hobby is about.
Mentor? For over 30 years, NC8V, John Cornwell. NC8V/ZF8/ZF2JC Now SK as of Feb 2008. His call has been reassigned to another ham in Ohio... If he only knew the history of John Cornwell and how much he contributed to ham radio in Athens, Ohio and Ohio University Amateur Radio Club!!

EURUSD: Fails To Follow Through Higher, Risk Turns Back To The 1.3212 Level
As EUR failed to follow through higher on the back of its previous week gains at the end of the week, further downside pressure is expected in the new week. This will leave the pair aiming at its key support at the 1.3212 level, its Nov 25'2011 low with a cut through here targeting the 1.3144 level, its Oct'2011 low. The pair has been under pressure since tumbling off the 1.4241 level in late Oct'2011. Below the 1.3144 level will open the door for more weakness towards its psycho level at 1.3000 and possibly the 1.2874 level. Its weekly RSI is bearish and pointing lower supporting this view. On the upside, a turn above its Oct 10'2011 low at 1.3377 and the 1.4241 level, its Oct 27'2011 high is required to reduce its downside pressure and set the stage for further upside towards the 1.4342 level, its daily falling trendline. Further out, resistance stands at the 1.4550 level, representing its Aug 29'2011 high. All in all, with EUR bearish and targeting further downside, risk remains lower towards the 1.3144 level.

My mother, Ruth Robinson, who has died aged 97, began a successful second career as a contemporary jeweller in her 50s, while studying at Camden Institute and Sir John Cass School of Art (now London Metropolitan University). Her work was shown at London galleries and arts fairs and she exhibited as far afield as Nicosia and Barcelona.
Ruth developed a technique for knitting silver wire with beads to produce unique pieces, both light and durable, and many jewellers learned from her other innovative creations. She found inspiration during her trips to Mexico, China, Poland, India and South Africa.
On her 90th birthday, friends organised a retrospective exhibition in London and Berlin. She chose the title Full Circle to reflect the fact that she was returning to her native country for the exhibition: she was born Ruth Katzenstein into a Jewish family in rural central Germany.
In 1934 she had the good luck to leave Germany with a group travelling to Palestine to work on a collective settlement. She then moved to Vienna in 1937 to train as a Montessori kindergarten teacher; she escaped on the night that German troops marched into Austria. Returning to Palestine, she again worked with children and met my father, Robbie Robinson, a major in the British army. They married in 1947 and returned to Britain, where Ruth initially worked in nurseries in London.
Ruth had a strong, warm, outgoing personality; she was feisty and often dismissive of authority. An elegant dresser, she could be seen wearing leather trousers in her 80s and she remained young at heart. She was active until her last few years when she suffered from dementia and restricted mobility.
On the day she died, "stumbling stones" were laid outside her childhood family home in Herleshausen, Hesse, to commemorate the other members of her family who had not managed to escape from Germany and had been killed during the Holocaust.
She is survived by Robbie and me.

HeyJude - Struggle with New School
My heart dropped as the bell rang, signalling the start of lunch. I had been able to make it through all four classes this morning without seeming like too much of a loner. To be honest, trying to blend into a classroom full of people wasn't hard. I just had to sit in the back row, do all my work and be as inconspicuous as I can. Blending into a schoolyard full of laughing people was a different story.
I took my time packing up my books, and walked slowly back to my homeroom. The room was full of people by the time I got there, with chatter and laughter filling the air. I slipped through a group of gossiping girls and two boys having a mock fight to get to my locker. It took me a long time to open the combination lock, since I was not used to using it at all. At primary school last year we had little tubs to put our books in and hooks to hang our bags on, not a square grey compartment called a locker. Finally I managed it, and slid my books carefully onto the shelf. It was only the second day of school, and being the neat freak that I was, my locker had to look meticulous. By then, my homeroom was empty. I took out my sandwich, and reluctantly left the room.
Outside, the sounds of a typical schoolyard made me so much more aware of how lonely I was. The yells of a footy game down on the oval, the tinkling giggles of groups of girls catching up with each other after the summer holidays made me uncomfortably conscious of the fact that I had no one to talk to. I had moved house late last year, just before Christmas. It meant that while I finished primary school with my old friends, none of them will be accompanying me to high school. Being the shy person that I was, starting at a new school was even harder since I knew no one.
I decided to sit down on the steps outside my homeroom and eat lunch. I ate as slowly as possible, chewing and rechewing each bite of bread and ham. I figured that as long as I was eating, I had something to do and was not just sitting there pointlessly like the loner that I was. But I finished my sandwich all too soon. Glancing at my watch, I had about twenty more minutes of lunch to go. I looked around me for something else to do.
It was then that I noticed the tall blonde girl. I thought I recognised her. She's the silent girl at the back of my classes, the pretty blonde who didn't catch anyone's eyes. It looked as though we were in the same boat. She was leaning against the door of the homeroom opposite to me, her pale hands twining around each other for a lack of something to do. She glances up at me as I looked her way. I thought her eyes were the prettiest I ever saw. They were a beautiful green. I later learnt that they changed colours according to her mood, which in my opinion is the coolest thing that someone's eyes could do. I really wanted to talk to her then, to become friends. Us two misfits would be great together. I gathered up my courage and unfold myself from the homeroom steps.
"Hey, I'm Tori," I mumbled, my heart beating like crazy.
"Hey, I'm Lena," she replied at the exact same time.
We laughed, the ice broken.
I've found my best friend.

Heavy meal... Breakfast with Mugabe at the Soho Theatre, London. Photograph: Tristram Kenton
With theatre, it's either feast or famine. I'm told that tickets for the RSC's Antony and Cleopatra at The Swan in Stratford-on-Avon are selling on e-Bay for £250, writes Michael Billington. Meanwhile the same company's Breakfast With Mugabe closes at the Duchess in London this Saturday after a three-week run. So what does this tell us?
Obviously, that the public likes star names in classic plays. Antony and Cleo has everything going for it. Patrick Stewart and Harriet Walter as the ageing lovers. Rave reviews all round. And a play that is part of the national folk memory.
Meanwhile Breakfast With Mugabe is a new play by Fraser Grace dealing with present-day Zimbabwe: in particular the colonial context from which Mugabe's corrupt regime emerged. I admired the play's complexity but it clearly never stood much commercial chance: although excellently directed by Antony Sher, it boasts no big stars and African politics, sadly, doesn't sell tickets.
But the contrast between Antony and Cleo and the Mugabe play proves something else: that theatrical success is all about horses for courses. Gregory Doran's production of Antony and Cleopatra fits perfectly in The Swan: instead of lavish Cecil B DeMillery, the emphasis is on the emotional intimacy of Shakespeare's epic. It's the right play in the right space.
However Breakfast With Mugabe, which sold out at the Soho Theatre, clearly lost its natural audience when it moved into the West End. Cost may have a lot to do with it: a top price of £15 or £20 at the Soho became £35 when the show transferred. But there's also a psychological barrier which means that the kind of young audience you find at the Soho seems scared off by the very idea of the West End.
Behind all this lies an even bigger dilemma: how do you ensure that enough people get into a hit show like Antony and Cleopatra? Its artistic impact depends on the fact it plays in a relatively small theatre; yet that also limits the numbers who can see it. Clearly the show will have a long life: there is already talk of a London run and an international tour. But the RSC has still not found the ideal London base to which to transfer its Swan hits: the Playhouse and the Trafalgar Studios have both been tried but neither remotely matches the neo-Jacobean charm of the Stratford venue.
In one way, of course, it's good to find a Shakespeare play creating the kind of buzz normally associated with a Madonna concert. But how will enough people get to see it? Televising it is the obvious answer: even the BBC, which seems to loathe Shakespeare except in its own adaptations, might for once step in. In the meantime, in the few days left, I'd recommend seeking out Breakfast With Mugabe. It may not be a smasheroo like Antony and Cleo. But it reminds us of the way colonial arrogance breeds its own revenge. Which is an idea that Shakespeare himself perfectly understood.

escort website
This project received 51 bids from talented freelancers with an average bid price of $739 USD.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$300 - $1500 USD
Total Bids51
Project Description
We are looking to build a small adult based website for an independent escort in Las Vegas. The entire site would probably not be more than 5 or 6 pages.
FLASH INTRO: Ideally we would like to have a spiffy flash intro page but this is not a definite requirement. What we have in mind for the flash intro is a series of famous Vegas pics floating or flying into the screen to form a nice Vegas-based background, and then perhaps a picture of the escort then appears just before the "adult warning" and the "invitation to proceed".
INSIDE PAGES: The main thing is to have a spiffy, classy approach that will appeal to high roller types. Nothing over-the-top or too fancy as far as design, it just has to be classy. Again, there would probably not be more than 5 specific pages, and it would be nice to tie each of them in with each other making them different yet obviously related. One page will be a photo gallery with maybe half a dozen or so pics that would need to be in thumbnail mode prior to enlarging in a pop-up.
PHOTOSHOP EXPERIENCE A PLUS as we would like for pics of the escort (the girl) to blend nicely into each page.
PRIOR ADULT SITE WORK NOT NECESSARY BUT PREFERRED. If you have ready-to-go templates that may work fine. If you have no experience with adult sites that is fine as long as you can take a look at a few sites on the web and get the idea of what we have in mind.
ENGLISH SPEAKING PREFERRED--PHONE CONTACT COULD BE HELPFUL. In the past, I have had trouble working with bid winners who were not available by phone or who did not speak english. Please be available by phone so that I don't have to spend hours on end emailing different concepts that I could easily convey over the phone--this is only in the event that we are having communication issues from the beginning of course as it is not my intent to spend a lot of time discussing this project after the initial consultation.
TIMEFRAME. Ideally we would like to have the site online no later than the middle of March. We anticipate a turnaround of about 10 days to 2 weeks after initial consultation.
TARGET PRICE RANGE. Although I selected medium (300 to 1500) I only did that to help entice good flash designer ideas. The site alone with no flash intro page should probably price out at under 300 because it should be really, really simple. If you are very creative and very good with flash and think you can put something together along the lines discussed above, then by all means feel free to price your bid accordingly.
IF YOU ARE NOT INCLUDING FLASH WORK IN YOUR BID, PLEASE SPECIFY ACCORDINGLY. We would be content with a nice, spiffy, and classy site without a flash intro!
NO AUTOREPLIES CONSIDERED! If you are interested in this project, please include this term in your reply: alohavegas. Replies without this term will be ignored.
Any questions, just ask! And thank you all!

Galilean Rendezvous
7 comments:
Hi Mark,ReplyDelete
I've been trying to post comments for a few weeks - so far unsuccessfully. So, I'm going to try something different (brilliant, I know), and see if that works.
I'm interested in the idea of baptizing in this passage. Jesus suggesting that the 11 "disciple" people while baptizing seems odd given the relatively small role baptism played in Jesus' own ministry. He never baptized people, except possibly with the holy spirit as John said he would.
It seems so clear to me that this is an interest of Matthew's, not Jesus'. Yet it became (and has remained) so central to Christians. And presumably the baptism of which Matthew and the early Christians spoke was akin to the baptism John offered…not Jesus (with the addition, I guess, of doing it in the name of the F, S, and HS).
This concerns me mostly because of the role baptism has played over the years in conversion - especially when coupled with making disciples of all the nations. Anyway, I'm curious about the move from baptism being relatively unimportant in Jesus' ministry here on earth to being extremely important to the early Christians.
Hi Kirsten,ReplyDelete
Whatever you did has worked. It's great to hear from you.
I've always assumed that, because of the trinitarian formula, the baptism part of this commission reflected the practice of the Matthean community, rather than Jesus' own preaching and teaching. For Matthew's text, baptism is mentioned in c.3 with respect to John's baptism and his baptizing Jesus. Then, it's mentioned in c.20 metaphorically (vv.22-23) with respect to Jesus' "baptism" (and "cup") in which the disciples must share. The metaphor seems to be a reference to Jesus' forthcoming suffering, not water itself or wine itself. And, as you pointed out, throughout the gospels and Acts the difference between John and Jesus is the difference between baptism of water and baptism of the Spirit, with the latter being the greater.
Then, there's this reference. What are we to make of it? And what are we to make of baptizing in the name of the one who did not baptize?
My only way of making sense of it is to see it as a later development in the Matthean community, which is not directly connected to what Jesus taught the disciples or practiced himself. Paul speaks of being baptized as a way of participating in the life and death of Jesus (Rm.6). I think Matthew's community saw the activity of baptizing itself as a way of participating in the teachings and ministry of Jesus. (Obviously one needs a baptizing community in order for people to be baptized, so this is not an either/or but difference emphases. Curiously, Paul also did not baptize with any regularity. )
My suspicion is that any time we see a reference to the sacraments in the NT, we are seeing a theology and practice that is in process - its practice is taken for granted, but its specific meaning is being negotiated.
Hope you are well.
One more thought. I don't know how Matthew fits in here, but I've often thought there was a substantial difference between John's practice of baptism and Paul's theology of baptism. For John, it was baptism for the remission of sins, replete with repentance. For Paul, it seems to have a larger meaning, a way of participating in the death and resurrection of Christ. Again, those are not necessarily exclusive of one another, but they are different. I don't know how Matthew sees it, but I suspect it is different from both John and Paul in some ways.ReplyDelete

Regarding "some doubted." I noted the same thing in my translation, but think the decision on the part of the NRSV translators and many others relates to it being a predicate nominative. A predicate nominative is considered a subset of the subject nominative (Wallace). I think if they were meant equally, the phrasing would have been different. The notion that they all worshiped and they all doubted is tantalizing though. Lisa P.
Yes, that's a tough one. There is a fine article by P.W. van der Horst entitled, "Once More: The Translation of oi δέ in Matthew 28:17" where he makes the following observations about how this is translated:
Existing translations divide roughly into three categories: 1. 'When they saw him, they worshipped him, but some doubted'; in this translation (the most usual one) oi δέ refers to some of the disciples. AV, RSV, NEB, NIV, GNB, JB, etc., and many commentaries.
2. 'When they saw him, they worshipped him, but they doubted; in this translation oi δέ refers to all of the disciples. K. Grayston, 'The Translation of Matthew 28.17', JSNT 21 (1984), , and the commentaries of Lohmeyer, Grandmami, Bonnard, and others noted by Grayston; also A.T. Robertson, A Grammar of the Greek New Testament (New York, 1919) p. 694
3. 'When they saw him, they worshipped him, but others doubted; in this translation oi δέ refers to persons other than the disciples. Some mss. of the Vetus Latina; also F. Blass-A. Debrunner-F.
Rehkopfj Grammatik des neutestamentlichen Griechisch (Göttingen, 1976), p. 201 (S250).
The problem is, of course for, (1) that there is no corresponding oi μέν in the first half of the sentence, (2) that the following verses do not give any indication of doubt on the part of the disciples, (3) that nowhere in the context is there any indication that persons other than the disciples (who are mentioned in v. 16 and are unambiguously the grammatical subject of προσεκόνησαν in v. 17) are involved.
Eventually van der Horst opts for #1, but I don't find his arguments to be ultimately persuasive.
For me, it's an open question. At the most, I want to recognize that the interpreters face a choice and opt for a resolution, but cannot fully rule out other possibilities.
Good to hear from you,
I'm reading this in light of my recent work reading scholars studying of the political consequences of being a Christian in the time of Tiberius Caesar and then Nero, when belonging to a Christian ekklesia meant not being part of the "ekkelsia" endorsed by Rome. There was a real cost to be born to worship a Son of God who'd died on a cross, the symbol of Roman power and supremacy. I'm therefore struck the idea that in verse 17, it can be translated as that "all of them saw, worshipped and doubted," at the same time. Why wouldn't you have doubts about who to worship in that world? Paul in his own story had more than doubt as he was violently hostile to those who saw and worshipped Jesus. And then in verse 18 Jesus speaks of having "All authority in heaven and on earth." Hello? Was Caesar listening in to this passage? As the closing of Matthew's gospel, I think implies, at least in part, those being discipled (in its verbal context) were exchanging the authority of one King for another. (And if they weren't making a complete exchange of one Lord for the other, then they were making compromises, which may be at the core of what Paul was dealing with when he was writing to the Galatians. I think there are also clear echoes of Monotheism in this passage, meaning it's rootedness in the Mosaic traditions, as it finds its echoes in the concluding concepts of "teaching", "obedience", and "command." Once more the question faced as a disciple is "Whose law (nomos) do you follow?"

We've finally found the silver lining to it raining in the summer - Harry Styles in a soaking wet t-shirt.
For once we were actually thanking God when the heavens opened and it soaked the One Direction star right through.
The 20-year-old ended up drenched while he visited the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. on Tuesday after playing in the US capital the night earlier.
Ever the woman pleaser, the heartthrob even stopped to pose with fans who seemed much more prepared for the torrential downpour.
At least he managed to get some shelter in the form of an umbrella as he smiled for pictures with the two female admirers.
We're guessing the showers caught the Brit by surprise as he looked more appropriately dressed for a sunny walk.
He was wearing a white t-shirt with a pair of blue shorts and black Nike trainers when he found himself getting pelted with raindrops.
But we don't think anyone was complaining when his top turned see through from all the liquad.
We even got a sneaky peak at his chest tats which, let be honest, are always nice to see.
The singer best get used to the weather on the other side of the Atlantic as 1D are touring the states until October.
A splash of water to the face might just be what Harry needed however after looking sleepy at the Teen Choice Awards.
During the band's acceptance speech, the heartthrob looked like he was about to doze off as he appeared via video link.
Poor Haz, who was rocking a plaid shirt and trilby, could barely keep his eyes open as he looked back and forth between Niall and the camera in the clip.
But it might just be a case of the former X Factor contestant wanting to keep his head down after rumblings that his ex-girlfriend Kendall Jenner has been romancing a member of One Direction's support act.
It's certainly going to be an awkward situation for Harry if the reality TV star ends up getting closer to Ashton Irwin, the star of 5 Seconds of Summer.

An Interview With IFBB Pro Johnny Moya!
IFBB Pro Johnny Moya disappeared from the bodybuilding scene a few years ago. Now he's back and doesn't regret a thing. Learn how Johnny got to where he is and where he wants to go from here.
[ Q ] You disappeared from the scene - what happened and where'd you go?
A: I felt I needed a change, a break. My
body needed to relax, my
mind needed to
focus on other projects. I don't regret it; I feel I'm a better athlete now than five years ago, both mentally and physically.
[ Q ] How and when did you become Pro?
A: I turned pro in 1997, I was the middle weight winner at the Nationals in Dallas that year.
[ Q ] What do you feel you need to accomplish as a bodybuilder and why?
A: I feel I need to be at my best
genetic potential. I hope that I can contribute to this sport by being a positive light, and not a negative one, like many others have done and continue to do so. I hope I can make a living out of the sport I love, and the sport I'm good at.
[ Q ] If you could change one thing about the sport of Bodybuilding, what would it be and how would you change it?
A: That is a difficult question to answer, at least, without sounding negative. The judging - it's gotten better. However, the
sport needs to recognize physiques that the average person can relate to, more realistic bodies.
I'm not saying that the monsters don't attract their share of fans, but I think we are missing the boat on another market. The more qualified, the better conditioned athletes should be able to make a living out of the sport itself.
[ Q ] If you should qualify for the Mr. Olympia again, what would it mean to you and your career as a Pro?
A: Qualifying for the
Mr. Olympia again would mean everything. The prestige of the event itself can contribute to the opening of different avenues. The promotion of the sport becomes a lot easier for the public to accept whenever
athletes that compete at the top of their sport speak. It justified my life as something I always wanted to be, a professional athlete.

Go Snakes!
For real, y'all. Snakes On A Plane worked, dude. They pulled it off. I think that many of the people for whom SOaP has been a minor obsession felt the same way the day the movie opened--after all that hype, the product had to be a let down. But fuck if they didn't manage to put together a fucking enjoyable flick simply by doing what they said they've been doing ever since Sam Jackson bitchslapped the studio into changing the name back to Snake On a Plane--being true to itself.
The movie was more cagey than smart, more fun than good, and more willing to find unique thrills within a formula than try to fuck with the formula itself. It managed to deliver exactly what it promised--personally, I think it managed to edge past expectations. And with an overeager crowd in the house to add its own steady stream of enthusiasm, the whole viewing experience was enjoyable as hell.
I agree with the Governess that the one thing that should have been added is some sort of classic sequel-baiting ending--one of those "The End?" type of endings or some gang of snakes swearing blood-oaths or something. But, for a fun, pretension-free night out, it was megaton superfly. We came hyped, we left hyped. We hope everyone else had as good a time as we did.

A/N: Tags to FAITH - season 7. I do apologize if this has already been touched on within a recent epi. As I am not US-based, got to rely on the internet for my season 7 fix. Didn't you think it strange, in FAITH, when Gibbs tells his father that the guest room is no longer a guest room? And to me, that bicycle seemed a little on the pink side. These random little thoughts have resulted in this random little one-shot, which - I hope - you all enjoy!
Warning: suggested adult themes
Morning has broken
Tony stands on the porch, paper bag in his hands, stamping his feet to knock the snow off. Shifts the heavy bag onto his hip, lifts his hand and thumps at the door. A few seconds pass before he hears foot steps on the other side and a gruff voice mutters: "Who the Sam Hill risks knocking at my door this hour of the morning?"
Tony smiles sheepishly as Gibbs peers out bleary-eyed, barefoot, wearing boxers and an old t-shirt: "Bought breakfast." Tony indicates the bag, hitching it higher on his hip as the bulky packet starts to slide.
Gibbs sighs heavily, staggers back through to the kitchen, scratching the side of his hip and looking a little worse for wear.
As Tony opens his mouth again, Gibbs shushes him: "Dad. Sofa." He mutters gesturing to a pile of gently snoring blankets on the sofa. "It's New Year's Day DiNozzo… Thought you might be sleeping off a hangover?"
Tony plunks the bag onto the kitchen table. "Surprisingly early night, Boss. New year, new leaf, I guess. But, then again, haven't really been that DiNozzo in a while, have I?" he adds introspectively, not really expecting Gibbs to answer.
"Buu-uut, if you are busy…" moves to stand.
"Sit down, DiNozzo," Gibbs sighs heavily, grouses: "Haven't even had my first cup of coffee,"
Smiling, Tony salutes, clicking his heels together. Gibbs shakes his head and moves over to the counter, filling the coffee machine. He fumbles around in the cupboard, muttering under his breath.
Tony empties out his bag - eggs; Parma ham; imported cheese; pancake mix; fresh fruit - onto the table, rifles through the items: "Gotcha."
Grinning widely, he holds up a packet of imported Italian coffee grinds, tosses it into Gibbs' waiting hands.
A ghost of a smile filters across the older man's face and the enticing aroma of coffee soon hangs in the air.
Pulling out two mugs, Gibbs pours, adding cream to one before placing it in front of Tony, who amicably chats about the Ohio State Buckeyes, how he hopes they will fare in this afternoon's game and, he predicts, if their current rate of play is anything to go by – he probably will have reason to celebrate this evening…
Gibbs leans back against the kitchen counter, cup in hand, grunting at the appropriate moments.
Down the passageway, the bathroom door opens, hot steam filtering through. This in itself, is not unusual: the old man has probably surfaced, Tony thinks, not even hesitating in his conversation.
But, mid-sentence he falters, swings back in his chair trying to peer around the doorframe, eyes-wide, jaw-dropping as woman saunters past the doorway, oblivious.
Those shapely bronzed legs, that miniscule towel wrapped round her torso, damp tendrils of chocolate brown hair escaping, clinging to her neck - his nightly fantasy wrenched viciously into reality.
Feeling eyes on her she stops, suddenly. Leans back ever-so-slightly, just enough for brown eyes to lock with green.
Realization. Flushed panic. Despair.
Watching - bemused; unapologetic – Gibbs lifts his mug to his lips, takes a deep, satisfying drink.
Tony turns his questioning eyes from one to the other, trying desperately to swallow the betrayal burning in his throat.
Slowly allows the chair to rock back to the floor, pushes himself up from the table. Ziva, still standing, dripping and uncomfortable, drops her gaze to the floor.
It is all the acknowledgement he needs. A low grow emits from his throat. He slams his fist down on the hardwood table, turns and stalks from the room.
Red hot anger burns and all he wants, no, needs to do is get out of there as fast as possible. Away from him; away from her. Trips over the bicycle leaning just outside the kitchen door – pink? The fleeting thought enters and leaves as he attempts to disentangle himself from the contraption.
Gibbs there, always there, quiet, silent, reaches out a hand to help him up. Tony shrugs him off, rolling over onto his knees, pushes himself up. Moves rapidly to the front door.
From under the pile of blankets, a disheveled Gibbs senior emerges: grizzled, hair sticking on end, startled by the swearing and noise. "Anthony?" he asks the retreating back, confused, uncertain. His eyes turn to Ziva, who stumbles behind Tony, haphazardly trying to tie her wrap and tug on her Ugg boots at the same time.
Tony is already halfway down the pathway, boots crunching through the freshly falling snow, hands jammed deep into his pockets.
"Tony," her voice angry, hard; halts him for just a second before he shakes his head softly dislodging the sound. He moves forward resolutely.
Again, she calls his name, her voice breaking, cracking just ever so slightly. The faintest edge that to most would go unnoticed. But not to him, he who knows her so well.
And despite his brain screaming no, he cannot resist, could never resist her. Accepting this as fact, he turns back to face her.
Ziva stands, hands clenched at her side, wearing a thin lilac silk wrap, a strangely vulnerable look on her face.
He stares at her briefly. Lilac? Cheerleaders and cougars wear lilac; the soft, frivolous, flirty colour incongruous on her, with her.
Perhaps it is a gift he validates; and lava hot anger bubbles unbidden through his veins. There is no tactical planning as his last rational thought shatters, the shards digging painfully in his chest.
Four strides and he is next to her, breathing deeply, heavily as he looks down at her, eyes blazing as she stares defiantly back. And perhaps it is this total disregard that he, Tony DiNozzo could actually have emotions, possess feelings, that motivates his next move.
Eyes still locked, he slides his hand into her loosely tied wrap, grazing the side of her breast as Ziva shivers. The cold? His touch?
"This," he says, voice dangerously low, nasty even, "may have belonged to him last night," he jerks his head towards the front door.
"But," he adds, softer now, but no less malicious, as his hand caresses, moves, until it rests on the swell of her breast. The rapid thump, thump, thump, of her heart beating in time with his own: "This belongs to me; and always has, hasn't it?"
He is arrogant and disrespectful and knows it. Hell, if he is to be honest, he wants to push her, hurt her, as far as she has pushed him, hurt him.
Even so, the stinging burn of her hand meeting his icy cheek, and the snapping back of his head leaves him with a dazed, somewhat comical, expression on his face.
He shakes his head to clear it, blinking rapidly. A flash of lilac silk. The freshly closed door still reverberating on its hinges.
This, is now an issue of pride; or of complete stupidly. He isn't entirely sure which. Either way, it doesn't stop him. Wrenching open the door violently, he follows her in, just as she followed him out a few minutes earlier.
"Hang on Girlie, let me get this straight – you're pissed? What the hell reason do you have to be pissed? " Tony asks her retreating back, arms crossed, wide-stance, standing his ground.
She whirls round, screams in frustration, stamps her foot heavily on the floor.
Still sitting at the table, junior and senior put down their coffee mugs, matching raised eyebrows. Gibbs stands: "Well, Pop, guess it's IHOP for us this morning." He picks up a pair of freshly folded sweats sitting in the laundry basket next to the kitchen table, pulls them on. Shifts past the two still standing on either side of the kitchen, glaring at each other. Slipping around Tony, he pats him awkwardly on the back before shoving his feet into his worn sneakers waiting by the front door. Gestures to the old man who shuffles across the floor, following him out of the door.
"You do realise," Gibbs Snr asks quietly, sardonically as the door latches quietly behind him, "that I am still wearing my slippers and pajama pants?"
Angry, raised voices float out on the air, a string of curses in a litany of languages, only some of which Gibbs can make out and none particularly attractive. Tony yells back that if Ziva wants to become an American citizen, she needs to assimilate already, and quite frankly, that means yelling in a language he can understand.
The two men, still standing on the porch, glance at each other: "So, breakfast or do you wanna go back in there?" Gibbs asks his dad, raising an eyebrow as a door slams somewhere inside, rattling the windows again.
"You know, it's early. It's a holiday and I can always pull out the old age card, say I got Dementia or something." Gibbs Snr throws over his shoulder as he heads to the truck.
Inside, Tony stares for a moment at the door that has unceremoniously been shut. In his face. He grabs hold of the the door handle, twists and walks in. Words burst, explode from his lips as he forcibly slams the door behind him, emphasizing his point.
His words falter, drip from his mouth as he looks around. An unmade bed, the white embroidered cover tussled, an indentation on only one pillow. The open cupboard displays neatly folded clothes – very Ziva-like clothes; her work boots and rucksack stacked against the dressing table; a brush, smatterings of make up and perfume on the counter.
A photograph of the team sits next to a lamp, stack of books and an alarm on the bedside table.
And he chews on lost words that catch in his throat.
She stands by the window, looking out. Refusing to turn around when he came through the door. Her stance rigid, angry. Shivering. From cold? From anger?
Moving past the dressing table, Tony picks up the perfume bottle, sniffs deeply – the recognizable scent clinging to his nostrils, tantalizing, tickling.
He sighs, deeply. The dark anger that had been strangling, stifling him since he first laid eyes on her in that towel, melt away.
He smacks the back of his head - Gibbs-style - only harder. Swears, loudly.
Her shoulders lift and a small barking sound that could, perhaps, be a laugh is quickly swallowed.
Moving up behind her, he whispers in her ear: "Got it all wrong, didn't I? You aren't sleeping with Gibbs aren't you – you're living here?"
And this time, she cannot resist the throaty laugh that bubbles out: "You thought I had sex with Gibbs?"
Turning, she lifts her fingers to his face; the red imprint of her hand still clear. Laughs again - that deep, sexy sound - as he cringes, ever so slightly. Lightly taps his cheek before cupping his face, gently.
"I know that things have been… difficult with us. But, after everything… do you really think I could do that…" her words waver, and she turns back to the window.
Looking down, she sees father and son at the truck. Gibbs glances up at the bedroom window, squints, lifting his hand to shade his eyes. He makes out Ziva standing, a light smile on her face, Tony behind her, his hands resting gently on her shoulders. Nods once, before climbing into the driver's side.
"Sun looks like it's trying to break through," Gibbs Snr mentions as they pull into the road. His son nods satisfied: "Gonna take some time, but it's a good start."

Now that I have the attention of everyone who has ever attended a school athletic event, I would like to express my excitement and appreciation to the local readers who have stated their desire for a weekly column on computers and for the staff of the Herald-Zeitung for publishing it. My desire for this first article is to provide an introduction of myself and to introduce you to some of the topics I will cover in the near future. I have been involved with computers since 1984 and in the computer business since 1989. My early involvement with computers was in the area of computer instruction. I quickly moved to a technical position where I worked on Novell networks and specialized in interconnecting networks with other networks and with IBM mid-range computers. In recent years I have jumped on the Microsoft Networking bandwagon and learned all about Windows NT and Windows 95 networking and configurations. Following well-developed habits I obtained in the Boy Scouts, I have been working on my "Professional Merit Badges." In computer lingo that equates to being a Novell authorized Certified Netware Engineer and Microsoft Certified Product Specialist with Windows NT. I have been working for the past couple of years helping companies in the South Texas area plan for and achieve their information systems goals. The magnitude of types of topics I can cover in this column is huge! The computer business today is booming and changing as each week passes. However, since this is a weekly column and not a novel, I must concentrate on topics that can be entertaining and informative. I believe that the one topic that is having the greatest effect on us all is the Internet. The Internet will do more to affect the way we live our lives than other medium available in the near future. The Internet has an effect on large corporations, small businesses, individual researchers and individual recreators. Perhaps the best description of the uniqueness and power of the Internet is offered by Kevin Kelly, the executive editor of "Wired" magazine. He described the Internet as an interactive many-to-many medium. Allow me to explain this computer term. Newspapers can present the words of a few to many people. Newspapers act like a forum in their editorial section. The weakness of this medium is that the time between responses is counted in days and the responses have to be chosen for inclusion in the medium. Television and radio are even more of one-to-many media. The Reed Helmly "talk" shows that do offer types of feedback are very timely and interactive, but that timeliness can be viewed as a disadvantage as well. The interactive dialogue has to be done in "real time" which means that you have to call in and talk during the actual time of the show. The number of people who can take advantage of this is extremely limited as a percentage of the whole number watching or listening to the show. What makes the Internet so interactive is its ability to conduct discussion forums in real time chat groups or near real time forum discussion groups that maintain historical messages that can be carried on by two or many people and read and referred to by many people that can benefit from the information in the discussion group. Besides the ability of the Internet to store and transmit text, the Internet is a good medium for the storage and retrieval of audio and video information. With today's technology and a standard connection, the audio programs work well. Video, on the other hand, takes a fast computer and fast connection in order to be of use with our current technology. That's how it is today. Tomorrow the technology will change. (Reed Helmly is a South Texas Computer Consultant for CompuVision and lives in New Braunfels.

What do you think? r____ I What steps should be taken to help keep J the Comal River clean and safe this year? Following the tremendous response the H-Z received from last week's survey question regarding the possible renovation of the old LORA building, we thought we better stick with that topic. Now that so many have voiced their support of a project to renovate the old structure, the next logical question is, "How would you fund such a project?" Also, "Who should take control of the project — the City of New Braunfels or a private organization?" We want to know what you think.

Six readers responded to last week's survey question, "What would be the best way to fund a renovation of the old LCRA building?" Their responses follow: ■ First things first! Let's focus on acquiring the building first — we need to save the building. This landmark is so important to the citizens of New Braunfels that we are counting on each and everyone, as well as support from the LCRA. ■ Since I do not know what the cost involved will be I find it impossible to suggest mean(s) of funding. All that I can be certain of at this point in time is that I am willing to donate personal funds for its renovation. ■ A half-cent increase in sales tax for a limited period of time, with the city of New Braunfels handling the renovations. ■ It is likely that LCRA will provide funds for renovating the building. We can plan for other funding after negotiations with LCRA are completed. ■ I feel a private organization should be formed for this purpose. We have been involved in the swimming program both local and national for a number of years. We feel we do need an indoor swimming pool. This would be a great one, along with the other great uses as a Children's Museum, etc. Please consider all ages. ■ Now that LCRA is aware of the tremendous community support for preserving the building as a cultural arts center, they will likely make a decision soon. We hope they will designate the funds, which would otherwise be used for demolition, to restoring the building. Then — and only then — we can move ahead with further plans. exactly two years later.)

SIBU (Bernama) – The High Court yesterday ordered former businessman Jacob Tiang Lee Yee,44, who is charged with murdering his wife and two children and attempting to murder another son, to enter his defence.
In her ruling after the conclusion of the prosecution's case, Judge Supang Lian pointed out that a prima facie case on four of the five charges against him had been made.
Forty-two witnesses were called by the prosecution to prove the elements of charges against the accused during the hearing lasting 32 days.
Tiang faces three murder charges under Section 302 of the Penal Code for causing the death of Ling Yung Ming, 44, (his wife), Christine Tiang Soon Ai, 14, (daughter)and Victor Tiang Soon Sheng, two,(son) on July 5 last year between 6.20am to 9.50am at their house in Pulau Li Hua Housing estate.
He is also charged under Section 307 of the Penal Code for attempting to cause the death of another son, Vincent Tiang Soon Thai, 17, at the same place, date and time.
He was however acquitted of another charge under Section 309 of the Penal Code for attempting to commit suicide.
Tiang, who appeared calm after the ruling, requested for permission to visit the graves of his wife and two children.
However, Supang rejected his request on the grounds the case was still in the midst of the trial.

Justin Trudeau Says Those Left Out Of EI Changes Should Feel 'Fortunate'
CALGARY — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pushed back at critics who say changes made to employment insurance to help the struggling energy sector don't go far enough.
Trudeau said in an interview with Global Calgary that people in Edmonton and Saskatchewan who complain of being left out of changes to the program should feel fortunate their areas have not been harder hit by the downturn in energy prices.
"I think that both people in Edmonton and Saskatchewan should be pleased that they are not hit as hard as other parts of the country and indeed the province have been,'' Trudeau said in the interview that aired at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
"We're of course going to keep monitoring to make sure we're doing everything we can for the places that need it.''
Budget boosted benefits for some, while neglecting others
Last week's federal budget boosted employment insurance benefits in some parts of the country, but left some areas of the oilpatch out.
The government said it picked 12 regions that needed the most help with extra weeks of benefits for jobless workers. Those include Newfoundland and Labrador, parts of northern and southern Alberta, northern British Columbia, northern Manitoba, northern Ontario, northern Saskatchewan, Whitehorse and Nunavut.
Calgary is on the list, but Edmonton isn't and Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall has complained that large parts of his province have also been shut out.
"We've heard the federal government say, well, they just sort of used this formula approach, they looked at where unemployment was high and decided to extend benefits in those narrow regions,'' Wall said Tuesday.
"But if it's about helping the oil sector, how can you miss two-thirds of our oilpatch? I am hopeful that they will (change their position on that).''

Trudeau was in Calgary for an EI roundtable where he met with a dozen individuals, including some whose benefits had run out and others receiving the benefit to get their views on what could be done better.
But the prime minister wouldn't specifically commit to further improvements to employment insurance, adding the government is always considering ways "to improve or increase that impact if necessary.''
Trudeau said previous governments were keen to announce programs, but not so good at following up to make sure they were having the desired effect.
Unemployed workers shared their stories
Jill Fink said she appreciated Trudeau taking the time to talk to unemployed workers. She applied for EI in February after she lost her job in the non-profit sector.
"The prime minister made a real effort to speak to everyone in the room, which I think was very kind,'' she said.
Fink told Trudeau she is worried about people who don't have enough savings and support while unemployed.
"He spoke to creating things that work for all Canadians and support people in the right place at the right time.''
"He spoke to creating things that work for all Canadians."
Alex Kent, who also took part in the roundtable, lost his job as an environmental consultant last year when his company downsized. His employment benefits have run out and he has sent 130 resumes to as far away as Ontario.
He's had no luck.
"I told him a bit of my story, but also asked him what his government will do to try to escape the boom-and-bust cycle,'' Kent said.
"Is the government trying to be different and do different things?''

A deficit of $29.4 billion in 2016-17, nearly three times the $10 billion promised during the fall election campaign, and a projected deficit of $17.7 billion in 2019-20 rather than the balanced budget that was promised in October.

Targeted to low and middle-income families, the government says the new benefit provides an average increase of nearly $2,300 in 2016-17. - An end to income splitting for couples with children, the children's fitness tax credit and the children's arts tax credit.

The government will spend $2.5 billion over two years on a suite of changes, including reducing the required work experience for new entrants and re-entrants; halving the two-week waiting period; extending a pilot project to allow claimants to work while collecting benefits; simplifying job-search requirements; and extending the benefit eligibility window in specific regions with a higher unemployment rate.

The Liberals' green infrastructure plan includes: - $2.2 billion over five years in water and wastewater treatment and waste management - $2 billion over two years for a low-carbon economy fund - Over $1 billion over four years to support future clean technology investments - $345.3 million over five years to Environment and Climate Change Canada, Health Canada and the National Research Council to take action to address air pollution.
