New Restaurant Concept Opens in East Bank District
Creative Collaboration From Chicago's Sports and Cuisine Leaders
Reverie, defined as "a daydream" or "an impractical idea", was designed to uphold both its name and meaning. Created by a local group of dedicated tastemakers, the new restaurant aims to bring to life the "impractical idea" that food and entertainment can bond in a way that is fresh and sophisticated. The dream team includes: restaurateursAdam Cisek (Red Ivy, Palermo's)
"I speak for the group when I say that we are looking to push the envelope in terms of the food, design, technology and service – and have a significant impact on the city's hospitality scene. The driving force behind Reverie comes from the name, which means 'impractical idea'. Our objective is to make people smile and maybe even laugh a little, all while providing a unique dining experience with superb service. We want to be multi-dimensional. We have a killer mixology program, a progressive menu and a terrific, diverse team. On top of that, Reverie has a very local, quirky charm that I believe people will genuinely want to experience over and over again," said Boyle.
Chicago native and internationally acclaimed architect, Rocco Laudizio (principal ofSlick+Designusa) envisioned Reverie as a modern, cutting edge space with a chic twist. The two-story building features an interior that is a steady balance of simplicity and complexity. A dreamlike palette of colored lighting and intricate textures on both floors will complement the matrix TVs, which will showcase sporting events, followed by graphic displays once the games are over. According to Laudizio, "It has become a creative amalgamation of many ideas. You create your own vibe. You set the tone. We created the perfect setting for you and your friends to do just that."
Gourmet, American dishes infused with Asian accents will take center stage of the first floor menu, which also features an innovative mixology program created by Benjamin Newby. The menu, carefully crafted by Agilbot (aka the "Food Buddha"), showcases his fierce loyalty to fresh ingredients and unrelenting creativity with his own take on staples like ribs, steaks, salads and sandwiches. "We wanted the menu to have a Midwestern sensibility, so we'll feature comforting classics with a modern twist," he stated. Some menu highlights will include Ahi Tuna Poke "Pokstada"
The drink menu, a flavorful companion to the dining menu, pays a bright homage to Reverie's modern sophisticated, and dreamlike aura. Specialty drinks include The Reverie (rum, orange curaçao and fresh tropical juice over ice, delightfully topped with chilled pineapple), Love You Long Time (a shot of lemongrass-infused sake, green tea and togarashi) and I Dream of Genie (Old Forrester Bourbon, orange curaçao, apricot, lemon and tart cherry juice, chocolate bitters and a kiss of smoked apple wood, served in a smoke filled bottled). Genie, beaded throw pillows and silk scarves not included.
Fully equipped with large screen TVs and AV capabilities, comfortable seating and a state-of-the-
Reverie will be open daily from 11 a.m. to close, Sunday through Friday, and until 3 a.m. on Saturday. Valet parking will be available. Visit http://reveriechicago.com or call (312) 467-4141 (tel:%28312%29%

Marcus Ericsson takes pole for DAMS ahead of GP2 Feature Race in Spain
Team-mate Stephane Richelmi completes front row
By William Esler
Last Updated: 17/09/13 1:22pm
As the clocked ticked down to the start of the session, dark clouds rolled in across the Circuit de Catalunya and the drivers all queued at the end of the pit lane in an attempt to get a 'banker lap' in before the rain would arrive. As it was, the precipitation abetted and the fans were treated with a thrilling session right to the chequered flag.
Championship leader Stefano Coletti was the first man to set a competitive time, but he was immediately pipped by James Calado, who in turn slipped behind Ericsson, Felipe Nasr and Sam Bird. Coletti attempted to go for a second flying lap, but the tactic backfired as he caught cars on their in laps and had to abort the run.
With all of the drivers back in the pit lane at the midpoint of the session, American Alexander Rossi decided to take advantage of the empty track to try and improve on his first run, but a rather unspectacular lap saw him fail to move up the order and he lines-up 15th.
As the session entered the closing stages, the drivers made their final pushes for pole and it became apparent just how impressive Ericsson's 30.0 second final sector had been.
First Colletti was three tenths up through the first sector, four tenths by the end of the second sector, but lost over half a second through the final turns to go third. Bird was the next man who looked set to go onto provisional pole after a purple first sector, but he to lost out to the Swede in the final sector, but did manage to pip Colletti for third.
It looked like no one was going to get close to Ericsson's time from the start of the session, when out of nowhere his team-mate Stephane Richelmi put together three personal best sectors to take provisional pole with a minute to go. His joy was to be short lived though, as the Swede was on an even better lap behind him to go a tenth quicker and pick up his first points of the season.

If none of our cars or trucks had steering systems, then we'd all drive in a straight line.

The tie rod ends on your vehicle connect the center link or the steering rack to the spindles, allowing the wheels to pivot and turn. A broken Dodge Custom Series D-19 tie rod means your vehicle would lack the capabilities to maneuver in an emergency.

Challenge #2
"Damn!" Marlin muttered as he inspected the bike's tire closely. That was the third time that the rear tire had gotten punctured in one week. It would have to go.
He dragged the bike through the sand, his long frizzy hair trailing behind him in the wind. It wasn't too tough a job for someone of his strength, but the wind kept blowing sand into his eyes. Once, the sting was so awful that he opened his mouth to curse, which only resulted in a mouthful of sand. He spit it out with vigor and carried on. No little sandstorm was going to get the best of Marlin Parinski.
He couldn't believe his luck as he came up to a garage not too far away from where the tire had broken down. He dragged the bike in and handed the mechanic ten Prios after telling him to remove the old tire and fix a new one in its place.
As he looked out from the shelter of the garage, the sandstorm kept getting worse. He'd been to deserts before on Earth, and although there had been sandstorms there as well, they were nowhere near as frequent as those on the desert areas in this world.
Marlin wondered if this world was bigger than the Earth . He wondered if anyone here had bothered to find out. People seemed to have very little enthusiasm over here. Most of the people Marlin knew lived in the town named Geric, which was where he lived. There were lots of others scattered all over the place, living by themselves. Many other towns probably existed as well, but very few wanted to explore the land to meet new people and were mostly satisfied with their simple, secluded lives.
He looked at his watch. He had to finish the task that The Prophet had assigned him and reach home before sunset. Not only did he not want to be out in the severe cold, he had to reach home in time for the special feast.
Today was no ordinary day. It was the ten-year anniversary of the eruption of Mt. Hellfire. Marlin had been in this world for two years when it had happened.
He had been sitting at the table eating dinner with his mother when it happened. The loud bang seemed to shake the house. He could see the volcano from the window. The top of the mountain was covered in what he assumed to be lava and ash, which slowly started flowing down.
They had rushed out of the house and watched as people screamed and ran in different directions. Some simply stood and stared at the volcano, either in shock or fascination. Those were the first ones to go. Marlin had rode away on the bike with his mother, but few others had the luxury of vehicles to get away.
The lava wasn't the worst part of the eruption. Its flow was slow enough for the people to escape, although lots of homes were destroyed by it. The worst part was the clouds of hot tephra that emerged from the top and sides of the volcano.
The clouds raced down the mountainside, destroying almost everything in their path. The ash that erupted into the sky fell back to the land like powdery snow that wouldn't melt. The thick blankets of ash suffocated all the creatures that couldn't escape its wrath.
The volcano continued burning for two weeks. Their town was almost completely obliterated. Nearly half the population had died of asphyxiation and due to the landslide that followed in the aftermath of the explosion.
Nobody had listened to the warnings of The Prophet. He had told them that the mountain was fated to explode very soon, but no one had paid heed to the old man's warnings. They had thought him to be a lunatic. After the eruption, he became their leader. He helped organize the rebuilding of the town in a location away from all the ash. He helped put their lives in order once again.
The Prophet dubbed the volcano Mt. Hellfire, and that was what everyone called it now. Everyone except the rebels. They were the ones who repudiated The Prophet's leadership.
Every year, The Prophet held a special feast to celebrate the anniversary of the explosion. The rebels considered this an insult to the ones who had died, but The Prophet said that the anniversary was simply to rejoice in the fact that Mt. Hellfire had left them in peace for another year.
Marlin didn't find death as serious over here as it seemed on Earth. Somehow, the concept had taken on a whole new meaning. They now knew that death was not eventual; at least, not the first time.
The mechanic had finished the work, and Marlin decided that he had better get going or the man he was to rescue would soon find out what happened the second time. The Prophet had told him that the man had been in one of Zhang Lin's cells for a few days. There was no way out of the cell. Zhang Lin hadn't meant his prisoners to escape. He had wanted them to die a slow death of starvation and thirst.
In spite of the sandstorm, Marlin made it to the spot in good time. Before his eyes were the infamous fifty cells where Zhang Lin, the most terrible ruler that the Second World had seen, imprisoned the worst of his enemies. It was very unfortunate for someone to arrive in this world at that particular spot.
Marlin walked through the area, noting the numbers on each cell, until he finally arrived at number 22. The Prophet had told him that there was only one way to open the cell. If Marlin leanedon the wrong spot, anything could happen. Zhang Lin might have placed any number of traps that would be triggered if pressure was put on the wrong part of the wall.
Slowly, Marlin moved his hands lightly along the wall. He had moved it along two of the four walls and was halfway through the third when he felt the slight bulge that was invisible to the eye. On this spot, Marlin applied all the force he could.
The wall opened up into two halves and revealed an emaciated figure lying on the centre of the floor, motionless.

Hi! My name is Marta and I thank you for stopping by. I realize there are thousands of blogs in the blogosphere and so I sincerely appreciate you coming by. My hope is that maybe something I say can be an encouragement to you along your journey. I am a mother of three amazing daughters. Mother-in-law to two really special son-in-laws, and Nana to seven extraordinary grandchildren. Family is primary to my life. At the end of the day the reality is that there is always more to be grateful about then not. If our focus can daily remain on gratitude versus what we don't have or wish we had it really makes a difference in our lives.
My life has been filled with many unexpected twists and turns. Joys and heartache. Failures and disappointments. Lessons, and an abundance of grace and mercy from a most loving God. There is a natural ebb and flow of life that can sometimes leave you filled with wonderment. I have spent many a nights asking the Lord about the grand mysteries of life that can often leave you puzzled.
"Man's steps are ordained by the Lord, how then can man understand His way?" Proverbs 20:24
I remember as a little girl I was convinced that when you grow up everything turns out just fine. No sure where I got that; maybe from watching episodes of Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best. Wow! I'm really dating myself. But it didn't take long as I grew up to discover that life doesn't always come wrapped up in a beautifully decorated perfect box, and it certainly doesn't always play out the way we may have envisioned or hoped for.
There is a beauty to be found in the whole tapestry of our lives. There is always hope and redemption to be found no matter what has happened. Like a miner mining for gold. Chipping away at what seems impossible but knowing that underneath there lies abounding treasures to be discovered. There is a richness to be tapped into and extracted from both the heartaches and joys of life.
No matter where we may find ourselves today. May we be facing forward. Determined to continue to move onward; even if it is one slow step at a time. But to continue to move forward with resolve and with great confidence in a God who takes everything in our lives and weaves great purpose. That looking back is only allowed if it enriches our moving forward.
I pray you know this day how loved and valuable you are to the God that created you. That whatever situation you may be facing God is mighty enough to carry you through it.
He is the way, the truth, and the life…John 14:6 nasb

Natalie Brooks - Give Me A Break
My nerves were on fire, literally standing on edge as I watched Mollie practically hit on my boyfriend. Not like I could do anything to stop her; if I tried to, Ash would think I was 'misinterpreting' their friendship or some crap like that. So I kept quiet and tried to suppress the urge to jump on her and strangle her as I picked at my food.
They'd spent the night together? When? Oh right: they had the whole history thing. I couldn't help but feel a slight prick of jealousy at the fact that Mollie had gotten to know Ash longer than I had.
Does that mean he cares less for me than he does for Mollie? It could be a factor why he'd choose her over me (which I'm rather surprised he hasn't done already).
My chicken grew cold, untouched with scraps of the meat lying on the plate uneaten. I wasn't hungry. Instead my stomach churned in anticipation as I tried avoiding the eyes of Ash and Mollie who were talking to each other.
"Hey! Do you remember that time you crept into my room in the middle of the night, just because you felt like seeing me?" Mollie asked enthusiastically, not really giving any effort to talk silently. Ash nodded, but I saw his lips twitch as if he were going to smile.
Annoyed, I angrily stabbed at a pea and forced it into my mouth, munching on the small thing while trying to keep a poker face. This was off my limits. I just had to ignore them.
That has got to be easy, right?
It should be! It's not like Ash has any feelings for Mollie still...right? Right?

Way into an frost giant heart ( Loki x Ebony)The stars shone brightly in the clear night sky whilst there was no sound except an gentle breeze from the winds they were getting pushed over from the Arctic Ocean but it was an peaceful night, one perfect for gazing at the night sky or in Ebony case observing the stars that lined above her. Ebony sigh gently to herself before looking into her telescope whilst the god of Trickery and lies sat peacefully on an deck chair that she had brought along herself for this occasion, Loki's eyes scanned the book that he had brought along with him whilst the mortal looked for answers in the nights sky. He smiles to himself before watching as Ebony long brown hair flows gently in the breeze whilst her hands glide over the notebook that she had been writing down her observations in, Loki could never understand why he has feeling for this particular mortal but he somewhat managed to dig past his hatred to mortals and found the good in most of them, specially Ebony.
"Loki? Your not bored are you?" Ebony clear voice calls out before she takes an few steps closer towards the god, she couldn't understand what had brought her to love this intriguing yet handsome god that once wanted to destroy all humans
"Yes I'm fine my Dear" Loki simply replies before going back to his book again and starting to pick up from where he had last left the story book adventure. He smiles again before feeling the warmth of the Midgardian next to him and finally found himself pulling her closer to him, Scared she could slip away from his arms or his life any second
"yes it's an splendid night, how about you take some time away from the telescope Darling?" Loki says before folding up the deck chair and placing it back into the car, Ebony watches this movement before doing the same with her chair and lying on her back onto the soft green grass that was spread out like an carpet below her and Loki
"Do you like this dear?" Loki says before wrapping an tight arm around her waist and placing an few kisses on her cheeks and slowly down her neck, an soft gasp could be heard before she turns to face the god
"I love this Loki, just as much as I love you" Ebony says before watching as an shooting star quickly shoots past
"Loki make an wish' it's an shooting star!" Ebony exclaims before closing her eyes tightly and making an wish before feeling Loki hand tightly hold hers
"I wished that I get to spend the rest of my days with you Ebony, your the only mortal who has forgave me for the crimes I have done and I love you for that" He says before pulling her back into his chest where they stayed for most of the night.

Yolo County Community Earns Grant Money for Recycling Used Oil
A Yolo County community is receiving grant money from Cal Recycle for their efforts managing used oil.
The City of Woodland will receive more than $27,000 in funding as part of Cal Recycle's competitive grant process.
Environmental Resource Analyst Roberta Childers says Woodland has a very active recycle program.
"The Yolo County jurisdictions, once or twice a year, have been doing used oil filter collection events," Childers said.
The city's Environmental Resource Analyst says they have been very successful.
"And they're good ways for us to inform and educate community members about the importance about the importance of recycling used oil," she said.
Childers says the city will use some of the money to purchase reusable devices that double as drain pans and oil collection containers.
Very popular with do-it-yourselfers, the containers will be available at future oil filter events.
Cal Recycle is giving out more than $5.4 million in grants across the state.

The Luxury Visionaries 2016
"The children adapted very quickly. Family life is fine so long as you've got a kitchen that functions and Wi-Fi"
"I've learnt that there are enduring themes at Knole over the centuries: one is the tension between the people and the house – which is more forceful"
Up a pitch-black and extremely narrow spiral of 17th-century stone steps, in one of the many wings that make up the wonderful citadel of Knole, the ancestral abode of the Sackville-West family, a door swings shut. And refuses to open again. It occurs to me at this point, and presumably also to the 7th Lord Sackville, with whom I am now stuck in a turret, that this may be the last we ever see of daylight – indeed, this is where we may die, slowly sinking into centuries of dust, our bones disinterred by some future Sackville, the mystery of how they got there becoming part of the many legends that surround this astonishing Kentish house. Robert Sackville-West, the 7th Lord Sackville, does some energetic banging on the door and miraculously, since being anywhere in Knole means there could be at least half an acre between you and another human, a disembodied voice floats up the stairs offering to go and find a key.
Some time later we are released into the daylight by the charming Emma Slocombe, the National Trust curator with responsibility for the house. It is not the first time a Sackville has been rescued by the Trust. Knole has been lived in almost continuously by the family since the 17th century, when Thomas Sackville, 1st Earl of Dorset, acquired the former palace of the Archbishop of Canterbury and decided to turn it into a grand domestic residence. But in 1946 the 4th Lord Sackville, worn down by the strain of keeping a 365-room house going in post-war Britain, made the brave decision to hand Knole over to the Trust. It continues to run it today, in conjunction with the Sackville-West family, who still live here. Robert, the present incumbent, inherited the title from his uncle, dispossessing five female cousins in the process, and has now written two books about his inheritance, the second of which delves into the unlucky Sackvilles disbarred from living here, either by illegitimacy or their sex. (A controversial clause in Thomas Sackville's will means the inheritance passes from male heir to male heir, one result of which has been the addition of West to the Sackville name.
Sackville-West's second book is the reason we come to be up in the turret – exploring the old suite of rooms that belonged to Eddy Sackville-West, "floppy as an unstaked delphinium in a gale", according to his cousin Vita, over whom he inherited the title – as he gives me a guided tour of the house. Left to one's own devices, finding your way around Knole, once described by Virginia Woolf as "half as big as Cambridge", might take a couple of months and result in complete disorientation. Knole is a "calendar" house, reputed to have 365 rooms spread over four acres, 52 staircases (very few of them leading where you want to go, as Horace Walpole noted in 1752), 12 entrances and seven courtyards, so Sackville-West is the ideal companion; he grew up here, first living in one wing of the house, then moving to a cottage on the estate. Since 2008 he has been back in the house again, this time as its heir, inhabiting the south wing with his wife, Jane, and three children, Freya, Arthur and Edie.
"Does Knole really have 365 rooms?"
Sackville-West thinks not, "although possibly, by the time you've counted up rooms that have been partitioned... but on the whole no, it's an Elizabethan thing – they liked the idea. "His share of the house – a nine-bedroom stately home within a stately home – comprises some of the most stunning parts of the building: the Colonnade room, painted with grey and silver trompe l'oeil; a bedroom in which Elizabeth I once slept; the 500-year-old chapel and the Poets' Parlour, which has been the Sackville dining room for 400 years, so-called because portraits of Rochester, Congreve and Dryden, Pope, Swift and Addison hang on the walls. The Poets' Parlour makes an appearance in Virginia Woolf's diaries. "You perambulate miles of galleries," she wrote, "skip endless treasures – chairs that Shakespeare might have sat on, tapestries, pictures, floors made of
the halves of oaks... & penetrate at length to a round shiny table with a cover laid for one," where his Lordship "lives in the kernel of a vast nut.!
"It's a really good room in winter," Sackville-West tells me. "Got a fire and everything."
Yes, how on earth does one keep warm here – Knole is on top of a hill overlooking the Kentish Weald, and even on this calm spring day, the wind is soughing through a stand of beeches, an ominous reminder of the ferocious storms of the past few months. "Put another sweater on," Sackville-West says stoically. We go through a green baize door into the family kitchen, which looks out on to the, named after an ancestor who went to China and brought back a pheasant. "It's unchanged since it was built," Sackville-West says. "Like looking at the equivalent of a 17th-century street scene."
The kitchen, by contrast, is very 21st-century country house, furnished with Aga, labrador and espresso coffee machine. A man enters stage left with a bucket and mop, and Sackville-West decides to decamp to the sitting room. We go back through another series of rooms and passageways, past the portrait of La Baccelli (mistress to the third Lord), a Mortlake tapestry of a double Van Dyck portrait that would have dealers on their knees with desire, and a library so ancient that the 16th- and 17th-century leather-and-gold-spined books seem to be growing out of the walls. This is where Sackville-West did much of the research for his own books, and it is littered with box files, pictures of ancestral Sackvilles, and a photograph of Vita standing heroically on a hill with her two sons, Benedict and Nigel. Eventually we arrive in a glorious room that overlooks the garden – sofas, a glowing still life with parrot over the fireplace, a portrait of Mary, the daughter of the 1st Earl - "when that was restored, we discovered that the Victorians had painted over the smallpox scars on her face and hands," Sackville-West notes. "So we said let's have it how it used to be." Mary now looks down on the room, mildly disapproving and faintly spotty.
Sackville-West, "a deeply relaxed lord", according to those who meet him, is 55, a charming, slightly hesitant figure, edging towards the Robert Bathurst character in Downton Abbey, but modestly attired in cords and linen jacket. He inherited Knole when he was 49, and thinks that this is about the right age to live in a house like this. "You wouldn't want to be any older, just the time-consuming size of it can take it out of you physically," he says. "Though my mother, who is 86 and lives in another wing, can still get from sofa to front door much quicker than I can." How long does it take? "About three minutes," he says seriously. "Though it could be a lot longer if you went by a more circuitous route... one of the many complaints in the journals and diaries I've discovered – right up to the 1940s and 50s – is that the food is always cold because it had to get through so many open corridors to reach the dining room."
Physical stamina is not the only attribute needed to take on a house this size; you would also benefit from a robust mental attitude to life. Vita described her ancestors as "a rotten lot and nearly all stark staring mad", and one of the themes of Sackville-West's books is the "melancholia" that has afflicted many inmates of the house. Was he afraid that he might also succumb when he took it on? Sackville-West says not. "I've never found it a gloomy place," he says. "But the sheer scale of it can get you down. There is a genetic history of insanity and depression in the Sackvilles. The 3rd Duke had melancholia, and my uncle had it very badly. In each generation there seems to be one depressive; I don't know if that's normal or not. It could be the house – but then some of the depressives didn't actually live here."
Sackville-West was in his teens when it dawned on him that he was likely to inherit Knole. "You try not to dwell on it," he says now. However, moving in with his wife and children was a big decision. "It took a lot of discussion. Living somewhere very historic and very big is wonderful, but on the other hand, it's open to the public – it should be – and that means compromises must be made. As a family we had to be happy with that trade-off, and we are making it work. We could have decided not to – you have the option." The worst thing, he thinks, would be if his son "felt it was an inescapable burden; there is nothing worse than feeling obliged."
At present, his children, aged between 15 and 10, love it. "They adapted very quickly," he says. "They realise people are always around, so they know they'll hear voices upstairs, and equally that they can be heard, too. Family life is fine so long as you've got a kitchen that functions and Wi-Fi."
Under the director Simon Jenkins the National Trust is keen for its houses to show signs of family life, and Knole, despite its size, is plainly a house that's lived in; Edmund Burke called it "a grand repository of whatever has been pleasant at all times". The 3rd Duke's clutter, generations of Greek pottery, phials of laudanum in Victorian medicine chests, and stands of classical busts are matched by the detritus of 21st-century family living: football tables, GCSE homework spread out in an attic space, bottles of shampoo languishing on stairways waiting to be transported to upper rooms. "A lot of footballing activity goes on in the Colonnade Room," Sackville-West admits. Outside in the park, which is open to the public all year, joggers in Lycra are limbering up for the London Marathon.
Having moved in, Sackville-West wanted to know more about the history of the house. "There had been Vita's book, but that was published almost 100 years ago and ended in 1815. Someone was obviously going to write another book at some point, and I wanted it to be me. I wanted to be the one who knew most about the house – to write about the people and the place, and also what the people thought about Knole." Not surprisingly, perhaps, it is the history of domestic life at Knole that fascinates him. "What I've learnt is that there are various enduring themes that have cropped up at Knole, which are continuous over the centuries: one is the tension between the people and the house – which is more forceful, the house or the person. The house got on top of some inhabitants."
The second is "those who didn't inherit because they were female or illegitimate". Since previous Sackvilles seem to have had a penchant for keeping Spanish or Italian dancers as their mistresses, there is no shortage down the ages of dispossessed offspring. The most poignant case forms the centre of Sackville-West's new book, The Disinherited, and it embroiled the Sackvilles in a 19th-century court case that, Jarndyce-like, went on for years. One of the main protagonists is Vita Sackville-West's mother, Victoria, the daughter of Pepita, a Spanish dancer, and Lionel Sackville-West, the 2nd Lord Sackville, with whom Pepita had a long affair but never married. Victoria and her siblings were disbarred from inheriting Knole, even though Lionel had no legitimate children.
Victoria solved the problem by marrying her cousin, the 3rd Lord, but her younger brother, Henry, continued to fight for his inheritance – landing his sister on an impossibly horned dilemma: accept the – at that time shameful – truth of her illegitimacy and live with her husband at Knole; or fight to be recognised as legitimate and lose Knole to her brother. "Victoria was crazy and impossible," Sackville-West says. "Powerful, full of energy and really sharp. Vita was terrified of her." One of the most unhappy parts of his book describes how Henry, desperate to see his father, '"arrived one Saturday afternoon and tried to force his way in, storming across the Green Court. A terrible thing..." Henry was turned away and eventually lost his case; Victoria got Knole but, Sackville-West says, "it didn't make her happy. She wound up a bitter old woman living in Brighton." Later Victoria's daughter, Vita, was also forced to give up Knole, in favour of delphinium Eddy; Knole is a house that, as Vita wrote, seems "destined to bring unhappiness".
The present Lord appears to be having a more positive experience of inheritance, however, and has "pretty good relations" with all his five cousins, "largely", he says, "due to the grace of their father and themselves. Three of them still have flats here." They, along with the National Trust, bring the total of people living at Knole to roughly 20. "I'm so used to it, I just think of it as home," Sackville-West says. "I think it's good for Knole to have a family here, but we have to distinguish what is private and what is public. Knole has always been open to the public, even before the Trust took over. In the 19th century there were about 10,000 visitors a year." He thinks the balance between private life and public access is about right, but says in a year or so, "Knole will be open 363 days a year. Ten years ago it was less than half of that. What the impact will be I don't know."
One of the greatest changes will be public access to the attics and the roof as well as the state rooms currently on show. An invitation to ascend into the Knole attics is impossible to resist, so we set off on another long trek, taking in several more of the 52 staircases, including one with a recently discovered section of painted trompe l'oeil urns decorating its walls, and up eventually into the roof spaces. Old photographs show the Knole attics stuffed with junk, antique chairs and cupboards, oil paintings of abandoned mistresses stowed there by subsequent wives and stacks of ancient iron bedsteads and chests. One of these last, a boulle cabinet, turned out to be so valuable that its sale paid for the damage done to the park by the storm of 1987.
Today one is less likely to come across a bank-balance-changing relic from the past, but these vast spaces are still wonderfully atmospheric, long, wide and painted white with elaborate plaster ceilings sporting reliefs of the Sackville family symbol, a leopard. They open up into rooms that, courtesy of the Trust, are filled with minutely documented detritus – SIX WOODEN FRAGMENTS, reads one sad label – belonging to previous Sackvilles. You can see the original 1604 beams that hold up the roof and, once you have bent double to negotiate another tiny door, the roofs themselves – Knole's seven acres of ancient red-tiled dormers rising and falling beneath you as they flow into the distance, like the heady view over an Italian hilltop town.
Twenty-seven stone leopards guard the Knole roofs; and all the drainpipes carry the insignia of previous Lord Sackvilles. Those who live at Knole are never alone, they must always share it with past as well as future incumbents. Does Sackville-West ever feel the insupportable weight of history on his shoulders? "I think it's important that, by living here, I enable future generations to carry on living here as well," he says, after some thought. "What I should be doing is making it possible for those future generations to have that choice. If I don't believe that, I might as well ship out..."
The Disinherited by Robert Sackville-West (Bloomsbury, £20) is available for £18 plus £1.35 p&p from Telegraph Books (0844-871 1514)

Late in September, Vazquez showed signs of retirement when he threw the ball of his first pitch in the last outing of 2011 to the dugout as a souvenir. "I know what I want to do already. I've talked to my family about that and basically this could be my last year," Vazquez said in August. "This could be it for me. The hunger is still there. But I think God puts my priorities in order. Baseball is probably third right now."

A heroic police officer was almost pushed under a Tube train by a drunk man after he tried to arrest him for loutish behaviour while off-duty.
Chief Inspector Roger Mitham was travelling on a Northern Line train when Ian Armitt became rowdy in the carriage.
He identified himself as a police officer before telling Armitt to leave the train as it approached Golders Green station, but Armitt refused.
The pair then tussled as Ch Insp Mitham forced Armitt off the train and tried to arrest him for being drunk and disorderly.
As they fought, they became trapped between the platform and the train just as it was due to pull out of the station, Highbury Magistrates Court heard.
Two plucky commuters came to the police officer's rescue but Armitt continued to resist arrest and began racially abusing them. The trio eventually managed to restrain him until officers from the British Transport Police arrived.
Armitt, 32, of Woodhouse Road, North Finchley, was jailed for 12 months after admitting assault with intent to resist arrest and two counts of racially aggravated harassment at court on August 3.
Ch Insp Mitham today thanked the Good Samaritans who had intervened to help him while he fought with Armitt on the platform in the incident on July 31.
He said: "I am very grateful for the assistance of the two members of public that day who stepped in to assist me. They were under no obligation to do so, but felt this man's behaviour was unacceptable. Together we were able to subdue this man until police colleagues arrived."
PC Stephen North of British Transport Police said: "Keeping the railway safe and the people that use it is our main priority. I am very appreciative of the actions of Chief Inspector Mitham and the two members of public who assisted in the apprehension of this person."Reuse content

Something MoreMature
A 15 year old girls daily life. :D
"Will you do me a favor?" His sweet voice whispered to me as I stared off into his deep blue eyes.
"Anything," I said. I didn't even know what he wanted me to do. I just knew that I would do it no matter what.
"Marionne thinks that I broke up with her to get with you. I need your help trying to convience her that we never went out..." Woah! Reality check! Excuse me!
"Do you still like her?" I gave my 'ex' a curious glare, but he looked away at Marionne.
"No," he said. I gave him a glance, then I looked at Marionne. You're kidding me. Your damn puppy eyes are all over her! I might be stupid, but I'm not that stupid!
"All right," I let love take over as I uttered those words. Soon, I knew I would regret them, but right now? I knew that I would do anything for him. Anything he wanted me to.
I walked closer to Marionne as I felt his eyes flying from me to her. "Hey," I said walking up to her. Damn, why is she so pretty! I can't be mad at her!
"Hi," she said with a dazzling eyes that fluttered a couple times. "Is there something you need?"
"Yeah," I said begining to walk her to class, or atleast the way she was walking. "I need to talk to you." she stopped, and I did too.
"About what?" she gave Noah a quick look. "Him?"
"Yeah," I said wandering how she could think that he broke up with her to get with me! She was just too nice. "Look, here's the thing. All the romors about us getting together is just bull crap people are saying to get you mad," (ha! Yeah, and the 3 months that we spent together were all for nothing too!) "We've been good friends. People just get the wrong impression of 'us'," (yeah, and the cow jumps over the moon). "There was never really an 'us'."
"Oh," she said. I glanced at Noah, noticing that he was carefully listening to what I was saying. "That's nice, I guess. Thanks for telling me." she smiled.
"Mhmm," I walked away back to Noah, but he had already left to go talk to Marionne.
It had been 4 months. I hadn't talked to the one person that made me cry in 4 months. But when he did, he just used me. Like I was some disposable trash. Use once, then throw away. Jerk.
He was everything I had. We planned out our future. We said we would go to colleges together, and he said that the only way he would ever break up with me was if I cheated on him. Let me tell you. 2 words could describe that. Bull. Shit.
I guess life just doen't work that way. You want it to go one way, but it goes the other.
The words of advice a caring mother had given me echoed through my head for the 5th time that day. 'When you plan too far ahead and you get all excited, and that plan doesn't work out. You'll be crushed like a grape.' If only I'd listened to my mother.

A total of 1,341 of 6,700 members of the Canyon Lake Water Supply Corporation cast ballots either in person or by proxy, and the unofficial vote count Saturday afternoon at Mountain Valley Elementary School was 991 in favor of the sale and 350 against — a margin of 73.9 percent to 26.1 percent. A total of 894 of the votes cast — two-thirds — was required for either side to prevail. The vote count will not be official until CLWSC officials check off signatures on the ballots against a list of membership — a task they began at the door of the polling place Saturday but were forced to abandon when an estimated 250 people or more lined up to cast ballots. The official result will be canvassed and announced at the Wednesday meeting of the CLWSC board, which takes place at I p.m. in the not-for-profit utility offices. See WATER, Page 10A NBISD drug tests maybe paying off By Jessica Sanders Staff Writer Keith Ploeger said it probably will take more than random testing to get some New Braunfels I ligh School students to kick illegal habits. On the other hand, a little incentive can't hurt. "I don't know if it's a deterrent as much as something people have to find a way to get around," said Ploeger, a senior. "I have overheard people say no' because of drug testing." New Braunfels Independent School District's random drug testing policy has been met with mixed reaction from students, but the results seem to be clear. Drug violations at NBISD are down by 80 percent since the random drug testing policy went into effect this year, according to data released by the district. In September and October of 2004, before the policy was in eff ect, IO students were punished for drug use or possession. Tor September and October of this year, only two students were punished for violations. In July, trustees approved the policy aff ecting students in grades 7 through 12 who participate in extracurricular activities or park on campus. A student who tests positive will be suspended from activities or parking privileges. Teresa Crosby, whose son is a New Braunfels sophomore, said she likes what shes been hearing about the policy. Her son said he knows people who have cut down on drug use since its inception. See DRUGS, Page 9A By Leigh Jones Staff Writer Wurstfest might be the biggest party in town tiffs weekend, but it is not the only thing to do. While many of the city's visitors were headed to banda Park for the big party, hundreds visited all areas of Comal County to spend time exercising, shopping and learning about the city's German heritage.

Does an example of this exist on the web site? Not just an explanation, but a clear example :-D. As I understand it, to add a page that is not linked from the navigation structure: How do I(tm) add a file/page to a Forrest web site without linking it from navigation? 1. Add a file to the src/documentation/xdocs/path/example.html 2. In the page which links it, add a URI/link to src/documentation/xdocs/path/example.html 3. There is no step 3 It might also be nice to be able to add it in such a way, and still have it linkable from a Site Map (which leads me to the question: Can Forrest build a Site Map? I don't think I've ever seen one built with Forrest.) Cheers, Web Maestro Clay

After realizing how many people underestimated the power of a Good Lookin' website, Megan decided to join the fight to make the web a better place. Now she creates beautiful and well built websites for a variety of customers, helping the web become a better looking place one site at a time.
Bru was recruited from the ASPCA in San Francisco. He was hired for his uncanny ability to make people smile and his experience in furBOMBing large quantities of people. His skills and attitude are unmatched and because of that he makes the perfect addition to the team.
With out Mr. Pro there would be nothing. He takes all the ideas and turns them into reality. Sometimes he can be quite cantankerous and slow but he always pulls through in the end. He also knows how to play a mean melody and more often then not redeems himself with musical masterpieces.
" Working with Megan was one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. From discovery through final delivery, she was always thinking steps ahead and making sure I was getting exactly what I wanted at every stage. But most importantly, Megan was a collaborator rather than a mere executor; she was never afraid to voice her opinion when she thought something could be better. Her creative input was invaluable throughout the whole process. Long after final delivery, I'm just as happy as the day the site went live, and I look forward to the day when we collaborate again. "
" Megan is a pleasure to work with. She brings a sophisticated design aesthetic and savvy, current graphic design expertise to every project. In addition, she excels at managing project budget and time constraints. Megan is equally capable of bringing a classic elegant design to the table as she is at creating products influenced by her love of sports and nature. "
" We needed a professional website fast and Megan delivered with a clean, sharp and easily-managed website that was beyond our expectation. She worked with us to create a strategic blueprint, offered us a number of design alternatives, provided strong design advice, and then built a WordPress site we could manage ourselves. She's our go-to designer now forever. Highly recommended. "
" Megan was great to work with. She understood my concept quickly and delivered an incredible website! I hardly had to make edits and when I needed to add or change information she was very available and made it happen within an hour. I was amazed to find someone with both the creativity I was looking for and the tech ability. "
" Megan designed my business's website from top to bottom last year and I couldn't be more thrilled with how great it turned out. Everyone tells me how beautiful my website is and I think it has been an important gateway to my work for prospective clients. Megan was very able to translate what was in my head (which wasn't website-ready AT ALL) into a sleek, easy-to-navigate website with immense visual appeal and great flow. "
" Megan did the graphic design for my website and implemented it using Squarespace. I liked everything about working with her: She delivered a slick, easy-to-navigate site. She was responsive. She was quick. And she went out of her way to research a tricky client login problem. I plan to work with her again, and recommend others do the same. "

Jarred Reece - Project Phoenix Files
Project Phoenix File No. J45305 Archive.
Reconstruction Initiative: Data Retrieval Department.
Charred remains of notepad found on the body of pers Probable owner: Sgt. Jarred Reece approx. three years after first infection in an abandoned stronghold on a Hoffman island one mile ESE of South Beach, Richmond NY.
May 25th 2013
If there has ever been a moment that I could describe as bittersweet, it was the moment we set foot on this boat.
On the bright side, we were finally in some form of safety that had eluded us the entire time we occupied the LAV III. There's something about the yacht that makes me feel free, and out of reach of the horrors we've been living through the past several months.
But at what cost? I lost four of my men, and countless survivors that have tried to travel with us, the most recent, a young man who I thought would have been a great addition to our team in time.
Today, I lost Jason Schultz, my driver and friend. Half his body torn from the drivers hatch of our vehicle.
Today, I lost James, a fine American soldier who we ran into only a few days after all hell broke loose. He helped us navigate the dense populated areas we weren't accustomed to, and lead the way when we were lost in the vastness of the American cityscapes.
Today, I shot two men, who's fates I ultimately decided upon.
Boris, his legs crushed and trapped in the LAV III. I didn't want to admit it, and I thought at first that the others were unaware of my mercy killing. Apparently they were quite aware.
On the deck of the yacht, James was coughing up blood. He knew that it was happening, and so did we.
That boy, I wish I had a fraction of his courage.
I remember it now. Jon came from the helm above deck, he saw us all surrouding James, yet keeping our distance. It took him very little time to realize what had happened.
"What now?" Jon asked, staring at us.
James, stood slowly, holding his throat as the infection already began to ravage his body. He looked up at us, bloodshot veins beginning to slither toward his pupils. "Take away it's prize Jarred, don't let it win."
There was a moment of silence, then I asked the question. "Are you sure? There are other ways."
"No." He answered. "One shot, clean. don't hesitate."
He had barely finished the word when my rifle was raised and a round began traveling down the spout. It struck him directly in the forehead; the exit wound exploded into a mist of vaporized gray matter.
The single shot echoed, it was like the punctuation of a sentence; clear, yet resonating with the questions behind its meaning.
For those on deck, it maybe seemed like it took only the fraction of a second for me to do what I did. However from my point of view, it was an eternity of questions and doubts. It was the word that drove me to push aside my humanity and do what I had to do.
"Don't hesitate."
How could I? Every second I let the boy breath, was a second closer to a dangerous problem. He knew what had to happen. He was prepared, and if he wasn't?
Too damn bad.

Microsoft Windows-based operating systems support several types of kernel-mode network drivers. The Network section of the Windows Driver Kit (WDK) documentation describes how to write these network drivers. This topic briefly describes the supported types of network drivers and explains which sections of the Network section you should read before writing each type of network driver.
This network driver design guide documents the following Network Driver Interface Specification (NDIS) interfaces:
NDIS 6.40, which is supported on Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.30 includes support for Network Direct Kernel Provider Interface (NDKPI) 1.12.
For more information about NDIS 6.30, see Introduction to NDIS 6.40.
NDIS 6.30, which is supported on Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.30 includes support for single root/I/O virtualization (SR-IOV), Hyper-V extensible switch, Network Direct Kernel Provider Interface (NDKPI) 1.1, and other services.
For more information about NDIS 6.30, see Introduction to NDIS 6.30.
NDIS 6.20, which is supported on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.20 includes support for Virtual Machine Queue (VMQ), receive side throttle, and other services.
For more information about NDIS 6.20, see Introduction to NDIS 6.20.
NDIS 6.1, which is supported on Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 (SP1), Windows Server 2008, and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.1 includes support for header-data split, direct OID requests, and other services.
For more information about NDIS 6.1, see Introduction to NDIS 6.1.
NDIS 6.0, which is supported on Windows Vista and later versions of Windows. NDIS 6.0 includes support for filter drivers and many additional services that were not provided by earlier NDIS versions. NDIS 6.0 includes major updates to driver initialization and network data management including required support for driver reconfiguration at runtime and the NET_BUFFER architecture for handling network packet data. For more information about supporting runtime reconfiguration, see Driver Stack Management. For more information about how to handle network packet data in NDIS 6.0 see NET_BUFFER Architecture.
For more information about NDIS 6.0, see Introduction to NDIS 6.0.
Windows Vista and later operating system versions support the following types of kernel-mode NDIS-based network drivers:
Miniport Drivers
A miniport driver manages miniport adapters and provides an interface to the adapters for higher-level drivers. A miniport adapter is a conceptual entity that can represent either a physical device or a virtual device. For example, a miniport adapter can represent a network interface card (NIC) or a virtual device that is associated with an intermediate driver.
There are many variations of miniport drivers, such as a connection-oriented miniport call manager (MCM), a Windows Driver Model (WDM) miniport driver, and the upper edge of an intermediate driver.
Protocol Drivers
A protocol driver provides high-level services in a driver stack. A protocol driver binds to underlying miniport adapters. An upper-level protocol driver implements an interface, possibly an application-specific interface, at its upper edge to provide services to users of the network. At its lower edge, a protocol driver provides a protocol interface to pass network data to and receive incoming data from the next-lower driver.
There are many variations of protocol drivers, such as a connection-oriented call manager (MCM), a connection-oriented client, and the lower edge of an intermediate driver.
Filter Drivers
A filter driver filters information on the interface between protocol drivers and miniport drivers. Filter modules are attached in the binding between the protocol driver and the miniport adapter and are generally transparent to the other drivers. Filter drivers can implement modifying or monitoring filters. For example, a filter driver can enhance the services that the underlying miniport adapter provides or simply collect statistics.
Intermediate Drivers
An intermediate driver interfaces between upper-level protocol drivers and miniport drivers. Intermediate drivers provide a miniport driver interface at their upper-edge to bind to overlying protocol drivers. Intermediate drivers provide a protocol driver interface at their lower edge to bind to underlying miniport adapters. Intermediate drivers are typically used to implement n to m multiplexer services. For example, an intermediate driver can implement load balance and failover solutions.
Intermediate drivers can also manage hardware when they are configured as a miniport-intermediate driver.
For more information about the Windows network architecture and programming considerations, see Network Architecture for Kernel-Mode Drivers and Network Driver Programming Considerations.
For more information about network INF files, which are used to install network components, see Installing Network Components. If your network driver requires a notify object--for example, to control bindings--also see Notify Objects for Network Components.
The following additional driver models are available to use particular hardware technologies and architectures.
Networking technologies that support the offload of tasks to a network adapter, such as the following:
Networking technologies that support Hyper-V virtualization environments, such as the following:
Networking capabilities that include Native 802.11 Wireless LAN.
A system facility that allows a driver to attach network modules to one another.
A kernel-mode Network Programming Interface (NPI).
A set of utility functions that enable drivers to retrieve and modify information about the network configuration of the local computer.
A kernel-mode interface that enables deep inspection, packet modification, stream modification, and logging of network data.
A type of network connection that uses Windows Sockets Direct to support a high-performance, connection-oriented network.
A class specification that defines a system-provided, bus-independent message set over a USB bus.

The journey in music that began under his musician father Lou's influence from almost birth to his tutelage at age 6 has taken him from polka bands in his early teens, classes at The Cleveland Institute of Music, the bands of Cleveland greats Eddie Bachus and Bill DeArango in the jazz clubs of Cleveland, to a life in music that includes the mentorship of Cannonball Adderley, tours with Quincy Jones, performances with musicians such as Ell Fitzgerald, Phil Woods, Sarah Vaughn, Buddy DeFranco, Groove Holmes, Terry Gibbs, John Faddis, The Dizzy Gillespie Orchestra, David Sanborn, Jackie Wilson and concerts with his own groups at Jazz Clubs and Festivals all over the world.
The musical journey goes on with a new recording for Capri records on the horizon in 2015 and touring that will give audiences an opportunity to hear "The sound that sets him apart" (Applegate music review), and the musician that the venerable Jazz Journal (of the UK) calls "both classic and brand new"...The Legend Continues!
