As already shown, this is an overly restrictive definition of the term.

He stared out at the hopeless cows, trying to get to their feet, so weak and feeble, hardly able to, the grass went alight. Though it was not as the traveller had expected. The gaunt cattle chewed the burning grass. He could see the veins beneath pulsing red and a faint glow fell about them. He knew then, for the first time, just how far away from home he was." Young, stupid and about to throw my life away on a dream, how could I not turn to the internet? I'm planning on writing for the rest of my life, because it is the only thing I truly love constantly, whereas I tire of anything else. So these are the tales that I wish to develop and grow, try to be honest, but at the same time, don't damn me for all my shortcomings, i'm still young and foolish. Thank you.

Julien: Thomas will practice, travel
|09.21.10 at 3:51 pm ET
With Tim Thomas a notable absence from Tuesday's practices, it is only natural to wonder just how much his workload will be cutdown as far as the short-term future goes. Thomas is recovering from offseason hip surgery, and after making appearances at captain's practice earlier this month was held out of Monday's intrasquad scrimmage.
Claude Julien, who has said that the team is taking precaution with Thomas in the preseason, said Tuesday that keeping the 2008-09 Vezina winner out of practice was simply "part of the process of giving him a little bit of rest in between those hard workouts."
Julien noted that Thomas is expected to practice Wednesday and travel with the team for its preseason matchups with the Canadiens and Panthers. He did indicate, however that Saturday's game against the Panthers at the TD Garden might be the soonest that Thomas, 36, sees preseason game action.
Regarding Wednesday and Thursday's games, Julien said that the team's intention is to go with a separate squad for each game, with no players participating in both matchups.

A dog bit me the other night, right on the finger. Nasty little thing, it was, sitting there in the corner of the pub, looking around with its ratty eyes for someone drunk enough to pet it. You can imagine what happened: the nip, the pain, the cursing, the indignation (me) and the self-satisfied wrinkle of the nose (dog). The owner didn't give a flying one. You're an idiot, he said, quite unfairly. You shouldn't have wound her up.
I am telling you this because I have now realised what happened that night. I was not merely bitten on the finger by a small, unpleasant dog. I was, like the England cricketer Moeen Ali, who was booed by a bolshy cricket crowd at Edgbaston last weekend, the victim of a 'non-crime hate-related incident'.
Non-crime hate-related incidents are now A Thing. One is probably happening to you right now. A hate incident occurs when someone says or does something vaguely mean to you, and you or someone else thinks it has been done for a hateful reason, even if it hasn't. You will notice this is rather a sinister-sounding definition for fairly ordinary human behaviour. But look, I don't make the rules. I think that dog bit me because it assumed I was black, or gay, or disabled, or Scottish, or something. I'm not. But that doesn't matter. In the world of non-crime hate-related incidents, we're all victims.
Anyway, back to Moeen, who was tormented for a few hours in Birmingham last weekend by some a***wits who would rather bellow jingo jive than watch the match. Big deal? Well, apparently, yes. His booing by a number of Indians was reported to the police by a busybody, so now it is officially a hate incident. Among other things, this means that when the Professional Cricketers' Association sensibly tried to talk it down as just one of those things, a load of professional offence-takers were able to throw their hands up and squeal in horror until the PCA had — inevitably — to apologise for saying something level-headed. Yeah. Another one of those. You can paint them by numbers, now, can't you?
For the record, I think Moeen is a terrific cricketer: a really exciting player whom I hope to see in the England team for many years.
It must have been irritating for him to be barracked by a brainlessly partisan element of the crowd — perhaps as irritating as it was for Stuart Broad, say, to be wound up by thousands of beered-up Australians last winter, all of them bellowing "Cheating Pom" at him. (In England, by the way, that could be classified as a non-crime hate-related incident.) Moeen was completely right to ignore it and to keep his dignified silence afterwards. He is, in general, an admirable sportsman. All that notwithstanding, how do we live in a world where people are genuinely angry about this? How did society — and particularly sport — become so thin-skinned, so prickly, so infantile and so desirous of offence and self-pity as to take an incident like a sportsman being booed by some morons and turn it into a matter of cosmic anguish?
Like it or not, sport is built on tribalism. It actively encourages rivalries based on nationality, cultural identity, geographical allegiance and neighbourly grudge.
Moeen is personally unfortunate that a strong rivalry exists between India and the country of his descent, Pakistan, and unfortunate also that Indian fans want to use that to clobber him with an attempt to put him off his game. But to frame this in the Big Brotherish language of the 'non-crime hate incident' — to imply that there should somehow be a police interest in the booing of a sports crowd — is a sure sign that society in general, and sporting society in particular, has gone completely mad. Last time I wrote about Moeen, by the way, I argued that his Free Palestine wristbands were a political statement rather than humanitarian, per the opinion of the ECB, and he either shouldn't have worn them, or else, in the interest of balance, we should be prepared to accept players wearing fervently Zionist wristbands, too. I got barracked to hell on Twitter by idiots.
I'm pretty sure at least one non-crime hate-related incident occurred. It was probably that dog, tapping away with its horrid, hateful little paws. B*****d.
Frampton comes alive… in SW11
Massive, massive plaudits to Carl Frampton for his excellent world title win over Kiko Martinez last weekend. A huge night for Belfast, of course, but also, I think we're claiming it as a huge night for Battersea, where Frampton's trainer, Shane McGuigan, has his gym. Regular readers will know that I take a keen interest in all things SW11. And now we have a world champion (right) among us. All other parts of London are basically inferior. As I have been saying for some time.
Sepp, you are brilliant
No matter how much we love to abuse him — and believe me, we love it — sometimes you have to admit that Sepp Blatter is a brilliant politician. Standing for his fifth term as Fifa president, he has now managed straight-facedly to lecture the English Football Association on learning to lose and to position himself as the champion of video technology in football. He triangulates, moves, slides, wriggles and always comes out on top. It's a form of evil genius, isn't it?
Gobbling over City chicken feed
In the context of the dizzying summer transfer window we've just witnessed, the news that Manchester City's Financial Fair Play fine will be shared around a number of top European clubs is almost funny. Each club is set to receive about £200,000, which — for context — would buy a nice lock-up garage in north London, or else pay Alexis Sanchez's wages for approximately… 10 days. Chicken feed, in other words. Will FFP ever really hurt committedly free-spending clubs?
Some Grand times ahead
So, to Stanislas Wawrinka we can now add Marin Cilic (left): not since 2003 has there been a year when more than one tennis Grand Slam was won by someone not called Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal or Novak Djokovic. It feels as though the game is creaking into a new age. But who will be the new stars? In a sense, the next 12-18 months feel like the turn of the century revisited: when the Sampras/Agassi years were coming to an end but Federer had yet to take the sport by the throat. Exciting times.

See and be seen
1st April 2012 - 9:39 | Bristol UK, Southwest | Age 53
I am considering setting up a loose group for voyeurs/exhibitionists.
The idea being that we meet at a discreet/neutral location, such as an hotel, sharing costs equally.
When all are present, (i'd thought 3-5 people per session) we draw numbers and that will be our 'name' for this session.
We all have around a half-hour or so where we become 'front' and may be asked personal/intimate questions, which we should answer honestly, and we may be requested to undress and perhaps assume positions or perform actions where our audience can get a close and personal look at all of our body.
Once our time is up we dress and the next number becomes 'front'
After all have had a turn, we go our separate ways.
1: no one under the age of 21. (i may require to see ID in order to protect all participants)
2: no physical contact
3: no-one under the influence of drugs or alcohol admitted
4: no recording of the meeting in any way
5: no names or personal details to be disclosed - other than to me, as organiser, as i will require a name and contact number.
6: absolute discretion to be promised
7: by entering the room you agree to participate fully
8: courtesy and respect must be shown at all times
You should be:
Over 21 yrs old. Adult and consenting.
Any age/sex/race/size - i feel in fact, that the greater the variety of people, the more interesting the whole experience will be for all
Open minded -someone who'd enjoy sharing both their thoughts and their body to appreciative onlookers and listeners
if you have thoughts, comments or suggestions i'd love to hear them

The Government is backing the plan, which will help to identify young players and fans who have been sexually abused. There have been fears that some coaches working with juniors have exploited their positions of trust to prey on them.
The screening programme will include every club in the country. Even famous names such as Liam Brady and Steve Heighway, the heads of the football academies at Arsenal and Liverpool, will have to be checked.
As part of a new Child Safe programme, which is launched nationally in Bristol tomorrow, professional footballers are also to be given training in identifying abused young fans who may come to them or write to them for help.
The programme has been developed by Bristol Rovers Football Club and has the support of Tony Banks, the Sports minister, and the Football Association, which hopes it will be adopted by all clubs.
Peter Cates, the FA Premier League's education officer, said: "Football certainly is not complacent about this and is more than aware that any job working with children offers opportunities to people whose motives might not be 100 per cent [honourable]."
The football establishment has been concerned by a series of cases involving the abuse of young players by professional coaches. Last November, Jim Torbett, the founder of Celtic Boys Club, which supplied young players to the famous Glasgow club, was jailed for two years for abusing three teenagers, including Alan Brazil, who later became a Scottish international.
Sheriff Margaret Gimblett told Torbett, a 51-year-old millionaire businessman: "These children were football-mad with stars in their eyes, and perhaps hoping to kick their way to the stars. You knew that, and you betrayed that trust."
Last June, Barry Bennell, 44, who was once employed by Crewe Alexandra and who had a close association with Stoke City and Manchester City in the 1980s, was jailed for nine years for preying on young players.
Chester Crown Court was told that from 1978 to 1992, Bennell talent- spotted boys aged 9 to 14 around the North-west and Midlands before selecting them for junior football teams.
He would invite them to stay with him at his home or take them on tours to various places, including North Wales and Spain, where he sexually abused them.
The FA's response to the problem was developed by the caretaker England coach Howard Wilkinson, who was asked by football bosses to draw up a Charter for Quality, to help clubs to develop their young footballing talent.
The charter, published last April, included a commitment to child protection. Next month, the FA will put this into practice by starting a training programme for all coaches working with young players at the Centres of Excellence and Football Academies that are now attached to professional clubs.
The scheme is principally aimed at helping coaches to identify abused youngsters and put them in contact with specialists from social services and the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. But coaches will also be asked to declare criminal convictions on self-certification forms, which will be subject to screening by police.
The FA hopes clubs will go even further and follow Bristol Rovers in adopting a Child Safe scheme, which has been drawn up on police advice. Bristol Rovers has appointed a child protection officer, former teacher Rod Wesson, to oversee the strategy.
Mr Wesson said: "We want to reassure parents who allow their kids to come to us that we have done everything we can to provide them with a safe environment."
The scheme is jointly run with Avon and Somerset Police and has also been adopted by Bath Rugby Football Club and Gloucestershire County Cricket Club.
David Niven, director of the charity Action on Child Exploitation, said: "We hope the big clubs will help this message to cascade down throughout the sports. Abuse can occur at all levels, from kick-abouts in the park to Premier League clubs."

Experts leave Norwegian Standards Committee because of OOXML
On September 29, 13 out of 23 employees from the technical committee of Standard Norge signed an open letter announcing their resignations. The reason: Norway's "yes" to OOXML
They say the walk out is a reaction to Standard Norge's inability to judge standardization suggestions responsibly, and they point to the approval of Microsoft's OOXML document format as ISO standard as proof of their allegations. According to the members, Standard Norge has paid more attention to (presumably) Microsoft-influenced proposal letters than to its own advisory committee, 80% of whom were against the decision to accept the format as standard. The letter voiced the opinion that Standard Norge had lost its credibility in the IT sector because it placed its own commercial interests above what is best for the institute, and above that which from a technical and professional point of view, would be advisable.
Sent as a press release to the Norwegian media, the letter was published the same day in the original language on the IT online portal Digi.no. Among the 13 who resigned are Steve Pepper and Hakon Wium Lie. Pepper is founder of the Oslo company Ontopia and director of the Norwegian ISO Standards committee, responsible for document description and processing languages. The Norwegian Lie has since 1999 been CTO of Opera Software. Earlier he worked for W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) where he introduced the CSS concept for the first time.
Standards Norge is the Norwegian representative in the international standardization organization CEN (Comité Européen de Normalisation) and ISO (International Standards Organization) and one of three national standardization institutions in Norway. The demonstrative resignations were preceded by a formal protest letter on March 31. 2008 and an angry speech at a demonstration in Oslo, both from Pepper. (Linux-Magazine reported)
The OOXML standardization process has been the subject of accusations and opposition towards its apparently antonymous stance since fall last year. In March, the German ISO body DIN, also released a statement concerning irregularities in the process. Middle of August, the standardization body dismissed the objections. The controversy surrounding the Microsoft document standards process has caused IBM to look skeptically at the ISO institution.

They have department stores?
A week after her adoption into the Saint-Claire family, Isabel was measure for all sorts of clothes that she hadn't thought was necessary for a lady back then. Day dresses, evening dresses, tea gowns, formal wear, even corests (those were a nightmare. No wonder Elizabeth from Pirates of the Carribean said "Well, women in London must have learned not to breathe!").
So many clothes. . .it felt kind of audacious to wear anything from this time. The formal stuff was finer than anything she could afford after six months of saving.
There was so much to discover about the 19th century, and about the Saint-Claire's place. They had knick-knacks and trinkets lots of furniture. Beautiful portraits hung on the walls. There were flushing toilets (a fact which greatly relieved Isabel), and there was a ginormous cooking range in the kitchen (scullery, she constantly reminded herself). It was really interesting. Isabel tasted her first Garibaldi biscuit in there.
The library was huge (Isabel found one author she recognized, Edgar Allen Poe. She then discovered that he had written detecive stories as well as poems). The dining room was exquisite. Her bedroom and her closet were really spacious and could house a family of four, no problem.
One day, when Ellen helped her to explore the house, Isabel even saw the servants' quarters (a little trip that didn't reach the ears of Saint-Claire, since Ellen insisted that it was improper "and the master might not like it" very much. But, curiosity was curiosity). Even they were roomy, considering the time and place.
The biggest highlight before the arrival of Lady Harrows, however, was Isabel's first trip to town. When the first of her dresses arrived, Grace decided that it would be nice to take a ride into downtown London. They even passed what looked like a playground on the way.
So there's a lot 2011 has in common with 1873 after all.
The streets of London were dirty, and there were people everywhere. But they all made way when Saint-Claire's carriage came along and the three of them, plus Ellen, stepped out. People around here just knew, it seemed, that get out of a rich person's way.
This sort of makes me think of the newest Sherlock Holmes movie. I'll bet Robert Downey Jr. would hate actually being in a time like this. On that note, have those stories even been written yet. . ?
Isabel wondered, but asking wouldn't do any good. She'd have to scour Saint-Claire's library. Maybe that was where the treasures and things were hidden? How did this Andrew guy even know where to look in the first place? He'd have to be close to James and Grace. I'll have to keep my guard up when I'm around a lot of people.
Isabel looked around, then saw something down the street that looked a little familiar. Was that a. . .
"A store?" she murmured to herself. It looked like a 19th century strip mall-type store.
Saint-Claire saw her gaze and gently nudged her shoulder. "Are you enjoying the scenery, Isabel?" he asked, a grin playing at his lips.
Isabel nodded. "What's that place?" she asked, pointing at the store.
"Oh." Saint-Claire looked at the place. "It's called a department store. They started to open about ten years ago. I remember the first one, I passed by it during the grand opening."
I knew it! "Can we look inisde?" Isabel asked.
"Well. . . .I suppose. Why not?" Saint-Claire looked at Grace, who nodded. So they went to explore a deparement store.
It was a little different from the department stores in 2011. No Sale! signs, no cardboard hanging from the ceiling naming a section or pointing you to one. No celebrity name brand stuff, no (2011) modern designer labels, no jeans or t-shirts (duh!). Isabel was a little disappointed when she didn't see what she thought a department store was. But that didn't mean that she didn't see anything at all.
It was kind of big, although nothing like the Saint-Claire's estate. There was jewellery, and lots of little trinkets and toys. There were hats and gloves of all sort, and chothes, that matched the time (althought nothing as elaborate as what was currently in Isabel's closet), teacups and all manner of dishes and silverware, and plenty of other things that Isabel knew that she might not remember by next week because there was so much to look at.
Saint-Claire and Grace browsed for a bit, but mostly watched Isabel as she browsed the store.
She had always loved browsing in stores during her time. Even if she never bought anything, it was fun just to look, to touch, to examine and determine it's wealth in your eyes without needing to decide if you wanted it.
As Isabel explored, she found a small, simple, just-intricate-enough silver cross on a chain. She held it up to the light, let the chain twirl and stop, and then let the cross rest on her hand while she looked at the beautiful patterns etched into it.
"Do you like it?"
Isabel nearly jumped out of her skin as a young woman approached her.
"It's beautiful." she replied, fingering the cross.
"One of our finest." the woman said. "Would you like to purchase it?" She must be a salesperson.
"Oh, I, well. . ." Isabel turned around and looked at Saint-Clare, who was walking towards her.
"Has something caught your interest?" he asked.
Isabel nodded, showing him the cross.
"Oh, it's quite beautiful. One of your finest, I heard you say?" Saint-Claire looked at the salesperson.
"Yes, sir, three of them were sent in not one month ago. This is the last one." she replied.
"How much?" Saint-Claire asked. "I'll give you fifteen pounds for it."
The saleswoman smiled. "That is the exact price, sir. If you'll come this way, please, we can do the exchange. Unless there is something else you would like?"
Saint-Claire looked at Isabel, who shook her head. Grace approached, and said "No, thank you, Darling." when her husband asked if anything had caught her eye.
"I believe this will be all." he said. The saleswoman nodded, and turned around. The three of them followed her to where the purchases were made. After that, they left to have lunch at a little restaurant. For one of the few times in her short life, Isabel tasted a fish product that she acutally liked from a genuine fish and chips place. It was a great day.
So far, so good. I'll do a little searching tonight.

Shinseki deserves more time to clean up mess at Veterans Affairs
As the scandal continues to boil around the abysmal treatment of veterans at some Veterans Affairs medical facilities, more voices are calling for the head of VA Secretary Eric Shinseki. We think that's premature — although it may become necessary if Shinseki does not make significant improvements in the months ahead.
We agree with Ryan M. Gallucci, deputy director for national veterans issues at the VFW, who told the Washington Post, "He's been available and open to criticism. We do not agree that he should resign right now, but this crisis demands strong leadership and decisive action, and we plan to hold him accountable."
We also agree with Rep. Ron Kind (D-Wis.), who Tuesday called for the creation of a blue ribbon commission to improve delivery of care at the VA and to investigate allegations that some VA personnel covered up long wait times for veterans seeking care.
"Long wait times for care can never be the norm for our veterans. And if any efforts were made to conceal the extent of the problem, those responsible need to be held accountable immediately," Kind said in a statement. "Forming an independent, bipartisan commission would bring needed urgency to this problem."
Kind suggested that leaders with military backgrounds and firsthand experience working with veterans and their families, such as Gen. Colin Powell and former Senators Bob Dole, Jim Webb and Max Cleland, would be "ideal choices to lead this effort."
The VA has launched its own investigation, but Kind is right to argue for an outside commission to examine what's going on. We believe such a commission would have more credibility with the public and would bring fresh eyes to a longstanding problem.
It also would provide some objective eyes. Right now, partisanship is infecting some of the criticism when in truth there's plenty of blame to go around. Some of the Republican critics seem to have forgotten that earlier this year their own party blocked a vote on veterans legislation that would have bolstered health and dental care, authorized 27 new clinics and medical facilities and provided other veteran benefits. They also forget that these problems existed long before the Obama administration took office. It's time to put that partisanship aside and just fix the problem. Let's do what's right for the vets.
The New Republic noted in a May 21 article that a 2001 report from the Government Accounting Office warned that wait times were often excessive even then. And Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), who serves on the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee and the Armed Services Committee, told NPR's Rachel Martin that the problems at the VA were "way bigger" than Shinseki. "That's why the calls for his resignation, whether you agree or disagree, are really not going to solve the basic systemic problem which involves practices and procedures that have existed for many years — so have the complaints — and also a culture that has existed for many years and a bureaucracy that predates Eric Shinseki," Blumenthal said. "And Secretary Shinseki has to show some people the door. He needs to clean house. And this set of issues is an opportunity."
Shinseki, whose track record as a military leader was exemplary, has had to deal with a steady drumbeat of crises and an inadequate budget since he took over the VA almost six years ago. Much of the current crisis has to do with an entrenched bureaucracy unable to cope with a growing tide of veterans needing help. Thirteen years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan and an aging population of World War II, Korea and Vietnam veterans and some rules changes have added to a massive disability claims backlog.
The most recent crisis centers on that backlog and allegations that long wait times for appointments at VA hospitals in Phoenix and other cities may have contributed to the deaths of dozens of veterans. Shinseki and President Barack Obama say they're mad as hell, but that's not enough.
That said, the VA is making progress. The backlog of disability compensation claims reached a peak of more than 611,000 in March 2013, according to the VA. That has been reduced by half since then, and, on average, veterans are waiting 119 days less than they were a year ago. More needs to be done, and Shinseki has set a goal of zero backlogs by 2015.
Shinseki needs to reach that goal and hold responsible those who can't cope with the growing numbers. He also needs to find ways to improve the system, which works fine in some places and very badly in others. If he can't, he should go.
Early in his tenure, Obama promised to clean up the VA. He and Shinseki need to keep that promise to those who have given so much for their country and have been treated so poorly in return. Although progress has been made, it clearly hasn't been enough. Kind's commission could help determine what needs to be done — and who needs to go.

The federal Bureau of Land Management wants to make it easy for the fossil fuel industry to siphon oil out of the Rocky Mountains — but it's not clear whether this would work, and it could be an environmental disaster if it does.
On Tuesday, the BLM proposed cutting the royalties it charges on oil shale from about 15 percent to five percent. According to Department of the Interior chief Dirk Kempthorne, shale deposits in the Rockies could yield 800 billion barrels of oil. That's enough to meet current U.S. oil demands for a century.
But as the Red, Green and Blue blog explains, nobody knows if commercial oil shale development is viable; even fossil fuel giant Shell is getting cold feet. And if oil shale works out, extracting it will require from 100 million to 300 million gallons of water per day — enough to meet the daily water needs of about two million Americans. And if there's one thing the western United States is already short of, it's water.
As if that wasn't enough, there's the greenhouse gas issue. Should we really be making it easier and cheaper to run America on oil for another 100 years?

The tragedy is thought to have happened before Christmas as neighbours who forced their way into the flat in Rhyl, Clwyd, on Wednesday found the bodies in the lounge, where presents were unopened and decorations in place.
Tests on the body of the boy, Michael Walker, who appeared to have been playing with toys, showed that he had died from dehydration through lack of care and neglect. But the post- mortem examinations on Tony Walker, 28, and his wife, Elizabeth, 23, were inconclusive.
The Home Office pathologist, Dr Donald Waite, has asked for further forensic tests to help him determine the cause of the deaths of Mr Walker, a postman, and his wife.
However, Det Sgt Philip Welsh told the inquest that there was evidence of drug abuse at the first-floor flat above a hairdresser's salon.
"The bodies were in some state of putrefaction and decay, and there was evidence at the scene of probable drug abuse," he told the inquest at Prestatyn. "Syringes were scattered about the floor and there were powders and items we would usually associate with the drugs scene." He also said that the flat, which was visited last Friday and Sunday by police who found nothing untoward, was locked from the inside, lending weight to the theory that no one else was involved in the deaths.
"There was no sign of violence to any of the three bodies involved and we are not looking for any other person in connection with this," he said. "There were a few small items out of place. I can only assume that the child had been playing with some items. There were a few toys on the floor."
David Jones, the coroner, adjourned the inquest to await a further police report on the outcome of forensic tests.
The townspeople of Rhyl, a fading seaside resort of grand Victorian houses, were shocked that the deaths could have gone undetected for so long.
Joan Butterfield, a councillor, said the local authority had long recognised the problem caused by the division of large properties into flats and bedsits, which gave rise to a highly transient population.
"Where there is a predominance of flats we have a moving populace very similar to the kind you find in a university town. In this situation people are less likely to know their neighbours. Perhaps this is reflection of the way we live. People are less neighbourly," she said.

Medi: The Ambassador's ServantMature
Medi moved through the iron halls as quickly as he could, balancing a tray with three pitchers of water on his spindly fingers. Around him, the staff of the fortress barely noticed him as they went about their business.
That had always been Medi's gift, not being noticed. Barely more than a boy, he was small, able to blend into places people never spared a glance, like a rodent, some said.
An overweight washer woman almost strode over him hurriedly, but he slipped round her, keeping the tray perfectly poised.
A slave, Medi had been sold into the Septarch's service as a servant. He had only been a young boy then, and remembered little of his life before he stepped into the iron halls for the first time.
Not that he was complaining, mind. In the servant's quarters he was never alone, and never wanted for food. His dedication had eventually put him in service to Artz Krieg, one of the highest ranking politicians in the Inner Sanctum.
A severe man, but he had never mistreated Medi, and Medi found serving him interesting.
He often penned his letters, and in return for his service, he was allowed to read many of the rare books Krieg had procured over the years.
He stopped at Krieg's office and knocked twice.
"Enter," Krieg's voice bellowed.
Medi entered and saw Krieg in a heated discussion with a man in a cloak he recognised. Aldor Zane, one of the Speakers, the servants of the Septarchs. The only ones who ever truly saw the city's mysterious rulers.
In his impressive black and red uniform, Krieg towered over the smaller man, but there was a sense of deference.
"Water, m'lord," Medi said, quietly.
"Lay it down there," Krieg said, before returning to his conversation. "They won't even leave the chamber for this? We must consider our next move."
Zane nodded.
"The Septarchs have been informed, and will decide the best course of action when the time is right," the man hissed quietly, like a snake. "But they will not leave the chamber."
Medi stood out of sight and disappeared again. Like a rodent.
"The sanctum has a right to be consulted," Krieg said. "The Septarchs have not been seen for more than a year, and now this-"
"The Septarchs have long been expecting the passing of King Aradane, and have made preparations," Zane said. "For now there is a more pressing matter at hand that requires your attention."
Krieg took up a pitcher and poured a drink. He offered it to Zane, who refused politely.
"Oh?" Krieg asked.
Zane reached into his robe and removed a scroll, unfurling it and laying it on the desk in front of them.
"This arrived this morning by hawk, before our agents in the city were able to report," Zane said.
"A notice of the king's passing," Krieg said, quietly.
"And an invitation to both his funeral in a fortnight and the imminent coronation of his heir, Her Majesty Princess Orabella."
Krieg pulled the notice closer to him with a gloved finger.
"The Septarchs have decided we will be sending an ambassador," Zane said. "The royal house wishes to present a united front, refusing the invitation would create needless tension."
"Me?" Krieg asked.
Zane nodded.
"Of course you will not be alone," he said. "As ambassador you will have a full complement of Iron Men."
Medi shuddered. The Iron Men frightened him, faceless blades in thick, black plate, the Septarchs' special guard. In his first year in Ironhaven, Medi had seen them silence a protester by severing his legs with a broadsword and tearing his head from his body. The bloody image had remained with him since.
"The masters trust this will not be an issue?" Zane asked.
"Of course not," Krieg said. "I would be honoured to pay respects on behalf of the Septarchs. If that is all?"
"There is one more thing," Zane said as he turned to leave. "The masters would also like you take another for your detail. You know him as The Quiet One."
Medi saw the blood drain from Krieg's face, but the name meant nothing to him. The young servant had never seen his master so frightened.
"Ironsail will be departing within the week," Zane said, moving to the door as Medi slipped in to open it. "Safe travels, ambassador."
Krieg stayed seated for a while after, in silence, before he sat forward and gruffly said: "wine."
Medi answered immediately by taking a bottle from the nearby rack and pouring it into his empty pitcher, returning quickly to his spot by the wall.
Krieg never thanked him, but Medi knew he was thankful, so it was not necessary.
"You are from Skyhaven originally, yes?" The man asked. He had never asked a question like that before.
"Yes, m'lord," Medi said.
Krieg nodded.
"Do you remember much of it?"
"No, m'lord. I was only young when I was taken by the slavers," Medi replied.
"Do you still have family there?"
"A sister, sir," Medi said. "We were separated."
Krieg did not answer this time. He simply stared out the window. Medi could never tell what he was thinking.
"You will come with me on the Ironsail," Krieg said. "I will need a servant as much as I need blades and..." he seemed to struggle for a word to describe the 'Quiet One' Zane had mentioned. "Other things."
Medi bowed.
"Of course, m'lord."
Krieg stood up.
"Go to Patron Seizster," he said. "Have him prepare my ceremonial armour for the journey."
Medi bowed and left Krieg looking out of the large arch window, across the glittering lights of Ironhaven.
Only when he had left the office and was three halls away did Medi stop and allow himself a smile.
He was returning to the place he had been born, the place where, almost eight years prior, he and his sister had been wrenched apart by men too big for him to fight back against. Bold, this one, they had said, good for working.
Medi looked through the huge window to his left. Soon, he would leave Ironglade for the first time in longer than he could remember, and he was going to find his sister.

I loved this short story of historical fiction. The mouse Amos is very witty and takes control. He had me laughing. You can hear his he accent when you read which make it that much more funny. This is an AR book, but is recommended for 6 th grade and up because of the vocabulary words. (I'm guessing)
My 11-year-old and I enjoyed reading this book together. She's a big fan of the Colonial Period of American history, and this funny take on Ben Franklin's role in American history had us both coming back for more. We loved it!
Do not say that book stunk ! I am almost finished with it but I had to give it back to my school ![ I was in the 5th grade and now Im in the 6th , Im young , and I like the book , by the way Im 11 Adults get it as well ! Although there is a little bit of history included , its mostly about a cute little mouse , you see, when its entitled Ben and Me' The Me is the mouse and how Benjamin Franklin helps it . There are ups and downs , but I was so ciked about this book that when I looked in the inside It said there was another book like it with Thomas Jefferson , I believe it was , I might be wrong though , Its really not about history in a boring way ! Its really not ! It brings you back drawing you into the time of his life explaining his best innventions , showing nobodys perfect and more , Get it Now ! Its not what you think ....
The book was very good except some part, but besides that it is great
It was okay, but it was a little boring.If you like history and fiction, you'll like this book, but it was too boring for me.
In my last few years of elementary school, learning felt like nothing but work, so I never did assignments AT ALL. The first one I completed in 5th grade was a book report on this book that all my classmates had to do. I loved this book! And I learned about Ben Franklin though I had never heard of him and didn't find out that he was an important historical charactor until a few years later. It was funny! ANd when I read about how Ben invented bifocal lenses and the Franklin Stove, I felt so proud and smart. I started this assignment because I wanted to see if I could be a good student, but after I few pages, it was painless and fun. I got my first A in elementary school on that report, and became open to the idea that writers and teachers can all teach them same concept but some do it in a fun, easily comprehensible way and others make it boring work. i.e. learning doesn't suck, just a few teachers and writers do. If your child doesn't like to read, has trouble in school, or simply has not been introduced to Ben, introduce them to this book. They'll learn how Ben discovered: that lightning is electricty, the Franklin stove, Bifocal lenses etc.) I'm 18 and(I'm not sure if I should be ashamed of this or not but...) almost everything I know about Ben Frankiln comes from this book.
I read this book in school it is an awesome biography from a mouse's interpertation. At first I didn't like but when we got into it made me like Ben Franklin even more.
I wish i had the imagination of that author
Quite imanigative and interesting for the young mind.
This book was very informative. It gave a good plot and a well told story. In a way, it was difficult to be reading it from the mouse, Amos's, point of view. I would recommend this book to more advanced readers with a clearer perspective!!!
This book stinks more than anything. I read it and when I read it I almost fell asleep.
i did not like this book at all! I thought it was the worst book i ever read. I highly do not reccomand this book. Ugh
I think this book was 2 boring. I no it needs 2 b educational but it could b a little bit more exciting and interesting. I had 2 read this book in the summer because I was going into 5th grade

It's that time of year again…time for Bike to Work Day!
As part of my commitment to my Earth Day resolutions, I decided to try biking part of my epic commute. I drive 50 miles each way on any given workday, and I feel pretty bad about my carbon footprint, and my general lack of exercise that are the result of so much drive time. We've had a fair number of storms recently in the Bay Area, so I haven't had a chance to try my new plan yet. I figure Bike to Work Day gives me the perfect opportunity!
So on May 13th, I will be taking BART from MacArthur station to Fremont, the end of the line. From there, I'll be following the route mapped out below, using Google Maps' relatively new bicycle directions. For some reason, Google doesn't let you embed maps that show only the green bike routes that you normally see when using the "by bicycle" option. But this should give you a general idea of where I'm headed–it's about 20 miles each way:
View Larger Map
Anyway, I encourage you to join in the Bike to Work festivities. Click here for the list of East Bay Bicycle Coalition "energizer stations" and here for the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition list of "energizer stations". If you check out the energizer stations, you can grab some coffee, snacks, and other goodies–definitely good motivation! I know I'll be stopping at the energizer station at the Fremont BART station before I get on my bike to make the trek to San Jose. If you have a great story about biking to work, please leave a comment…the more we talk about loving being on bikes, the more people will give it a try, and find out they love it too!

Electromagnetism calculation:
The insulation strength is comprehensively calculated with reference to the formula of "impulse voltage gradient+ actuation duration". Parsing imaging method is used for precisely calculating winding magnetic field and ampere-turn balance between windings, thus to minimize the mechanical strength.
Electric field wave process and field intensity are calculated, thus to ensure both the principal and longitudinal insulation having sufficient strength under impulse voltage. Advanced auxiliary computer programs are used to simulate and calculate the temperature rise on core and windings, with precision reaching each core step and each winding disk.
The interleaved and continuous winding structure is adopted for HV windings, thus to improve the electric distribution and effectively improve the anti-lightning impulse capability. Inner and outer support strip structure is adopted. The support strips and pads are all rounded to improve insulation reliability. Oil-directing structure is adopted in the winding, thus to reduce the hotspot temperature and prolong insulation life.
Both the H.V and M.V. windings are usually provided with separate voltage regulating windings, so the ampere-turn of all the windings are completely balanced. These can effectively eliminate the axial electrodynamics force during external short circuit and improve the dynamic stability under external short circuit.
Bell-type tank is adopted for the transformer (for transformer of below-20MVA, barrel-type tank is used). The tank wall is made into a corrugated shape with special machining equipment. This will reduce the welding work and the mechanical strength will be much improved. The tank rims are sealed with oil-resistant rubber pad and there is a position-limit device on bottom part of the tank.
High-quality cold-rolled grain-oriented silicon steel sheets are used for core manufacturing. 45-degree mitring and steps-overlapping structure is adopted. No punching holes in the core. The silicon steel sheet is cut with the most advanced cutting machine, with the cut edging burrs less than 0.02mm. This greatly reduces transformer's no-load loss.
Cooling Devices and Other Accessories:
The main cooling methods for transformers are ONAN (natural air cooling) and ONAF (air forced cooling). Transformers are designed to operate at full load when fans are in operation, and at 70% of the full load when fans are shut down. Panel-type radiators are used. A more compact size can be obtained for transformers equipped with such radiators .The fans generally blow horizontally, with lower speed and lower noise. The on/off operations of the fans are controlled according to changes in oil temperature and load.
Conservator with rubber bladder is used for the transformer, within which are the oil-resistant and sealed bladder for isolating the oil from the atmosphere. To further improve the reliability, the air cell in the bladder are connected with exterior atmosphere through silica gel breather.

Western Digital- thing is pretty quiet and quick for a HD
It's fast, one of the fastest mechanical drive on the market but the noise is awful. I wish WD makes a fast mechanical drive with tamer noise outout.
WD Black, 5-year warranty, 7200RPM HDD. What more could you ask of a hard disk drive?
