When India's top security official, M K Narayanan, and his Chinese counterpart, Dai Bing Guo, sit down today for boundary talks in Beijing there will be little hope of a breakthrough. Since 1981 there have been more than 30 rounds of talks – mostly about agreeing to disagree.
China claims the Indian-held state of Arunachal Pradesh and India claims portions of Chinese-held Kashmir. The contested zones amount to almost 58,000 sq miles (150,000 sq km) – an area slightly larger than Greece. What is really at stake is the most sensitive of issues: Tibet.
India has been home to the Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of Tibet, since he fled in 1959 after China sent in troops to suppress a revolt against its rule. Arunachal Pradesh is the birthplace of the sixth Dalai Lama and home to one of the largest Buddhist monasteries outside the traditional capital of Tibet, Lhasa. Lamas from Tawang are revered in southern Tibet. China says the portions of Kashmir it occupies are vital to ensure access to sensitive parts of the Tibetan plateau.
Alarming for Beijing is how Tibet has become part of Hindu nationalism, a potent continuing force in India.
The head of this nationalist ideology is the Rashtryia Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), or Organisation of National Volunteers. With an estimated membership of 5 million, it is the second-largest political movement in the world after the Chinese Communist party. The RSS spawned the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata party, which led India's government from 1998 to 2004.
When I sit down with Indresh Kumar, the head of the Himalaya cell for the RSS, he is quick to point out "the diplomatic, political and humanitarian crime" of accepting Tibet as part of China. "Tibet was never part of China, which is an imperialistic nation."
Kumar, who formulates strategy for the RSS on Tibet, bases his assessment on two doctrines: one is India's national security, the other is race. The former is easy to explain: India's security can be threatened by China's army from the Tibetan plateau. It was a blitzkrieg across the Himalayas that saw India lose the 1962 war with China in a matter of days.
But what jars is the racial component of the RSS argument. "(Tibetan) genes must be saved," says Kumar. "The first responsibility for Tibet's independence is India's … because the two nations are culturally, religiously intertwined. [The] Dalai Lama says India is guru (teacher), Tibet is shishya (disciple)."
This thinking harks back to the central RSS assertion that India is populated by a race, of Aryans, and a religion, Hinduism, which are both somehow special. It is also energising rightwing Hindu attitudes to China.
To see why this can lead to dangerous rhetoric, look back at the height of China's crackdown in Tibet in April. At this time, the former Indian foreign minister Yashwant Sinha told reporters "if there was conflict (over Tibet) we should be ready to meet the challenge".
Narayanan is not part of the RSS, but his government cannot ignore nationalist sentiment. Little wonder that today's talks in Beijing are unlikely to lead to much – but more talks.

React Reformed
Tiny form bindings for React so you can stop storing your form data in local component state. This higher-order component wraps your component and, through props, injects form data (a model) and simple bindings to update that model, giving you the opportunity to utilize composition in a middleware-like approach to accomplish more advanced functionality without bloating the form component itself.

The unofficial SBS hardware survey is now open for business
And no we're not talking about this pizza but instead the rack mounted computer variety and tower chassis. I want to know the typical hardware that was historically recommended by you a few years back as well as the hardware you recommend now.
And I have a couple of "religious" questions in there … one about disk partitioning…for example, once upon a time we thought a 20 gig partition was great for a C: drive and yet when I did mine I put 35 gig as the main C: and I have about 9.5 to 10 gig left. (Which reminds me I need to blog about some options for those who are now looking at SP2 wondering how in the world you can get it on that C:\ with what you have left)
The results of this hardware survey will be shared back with the community.
But let's talley up the typical hardware we have out here and installed, shall we? Get a feel for the typical setups we all do. And given that I'm cheap, sorry I can't offer anything other than a heart felt thank you for filling out the survey.. and no not even a SBS Cougar logo'd boxer shorts or something along those lines (sorry Vlad and Chris). How about a hug in person if you are at any of the conferences I'll be at this year… New Orleans with Jeff, Seattle with Harry and Sydney with Wayne.
(and right now I'm not going to shoot it to the yahoogroups listserves until they stop duplicating messages)

Course content -
The course is taught on dual boot computers (Mac and PC option) equipped with the latest Adobe CC software. You are welcome to use your own laptop provided it has the latest Adobe CC Illustrator and Photoshop software. Repeating patterns allow a design to be filled across the width and length of a fabric panel or be used for continuous metreage. The introduction of digital printing has enabled designs to be developed from a range of sources including scanned drawings and photographs.
This course covers a number of techniques for creating repeating patterns using both Photoshop and Illustrator. You will learn about digitising artwork, optimising originals and creating a unit of repeat or tile. In Photoshop you will use Define Pattern, Pattern Fill Layers, as well as Solid Colour and Gradient Layers. You will also use Layer Masks, Healing Tools, Adjustment Layers and Blending Modes to develop repeating patterns. In Illustrator you will be introduced to Image Trace as well as the new Pattern menu. You will also learn how to prepare files for digital printing for both Photoshop and Illustrator. At the end of the course a sample print of your design will be digitally printed onto fabric.

Ariel in her gorgeous Disneyland gown! Not much more to say...ha ha

Still experimenting some new shading techniques.
c) Disney
She's so beautiful!
but why in disneyland does she have GREEN dress she has a pink (semi formal), a blue (casual) & a white (wedding)
The Disneyland dress is a combination of three dresses, her wedding dress, blue dress and pink dress. The overall shape is the blue dress with the sleeves and neckline from the pink while the waistline and split panel skirt are from her wedding dress, however now with the redesign Ariel wears a green version of her pink dress whuch green fits her better than pink.
A lovely dress for Ariel - Much better then her pink one, don't you agree?
Actually, to be fair, I don't mind Ariel's pink dress, but I can certainly see why alot people hate it.
Very lovely! My only comment would be that her eyes look sleepy and Ariel is usually very bright-eyed.
Other than her eye looking a tad droopy, it's fantastic!
This is beautiful!
So pretty! Love it!
The shading is turning out nicely!

An Anchor and a Purpose
An Interview with Stephen McCain, by Timothy Dalrymple
Editor's Note: We are hosting a conversation on faith and sports, in which we hear from people of all faiths -- including those, as in this case, who find spiritual inspiration in many faiths at once.
Stephen McCain was on the United States gymnastics team for the 2000 Olympics in Sydney and the 2004 Olympics in Athens. He also won a silver medal with the United States team at the World Championships in 2001.
McCain grew up in Houston, Texas, in a Southern Baptist family. It was not long after he began gymnastics at the age of 10 that his training and his devotion to the sport consumed his life. When he departed for UCLA, he began "challenging everything" he had been taught to believe. Although he values the faith of his family, and in some ways wishes he had "a more organized faith," he began to find spiritual life in many different faiths and in spiritual disciplines such as yoga. Like many of his peers, he says, he seeks a "more organic" and "open-ended" faith that brings together the best of different religions.
He spoke with Timothy Dalrymple.
Prior to the 2000 Olympics, what sort of effect do you think your life as a gymnast had on your spiritual life?
A significant effect. Gymnastics was such a significant part of my life. It effected everything. When I was younger, all the way up until I left for college, I went to bed every single night praying to God about what I wanted to do as an athlete. In college, things changed. Maybe some of it was the atmosphere in Los Angeles, and maybe some of it was the deep need I felt to question everything I had been taught. But I can tell you one thing for sure: when I missed the 1996 Olympics, I was angry with God. I felt like I had done everything right. Now I look back at it, and I was just devastated at the time, but it turned out to be the greatest thing that ever happened to me. Now I'm actually thankful it happened.
But gymnastics had a profound effect. Sometimes, with gymnastics, you get a really profound feeling when you are in such amazing control of your body. You achieve these heightened states of awareness. I delved so much into who I was as a person, physically and mentally and spiritually, that I felt like I perceive God to be in everything. God is all of us, a universal energy. And I'm certain I developed this spiritual philosophy just because I have really delved deeply into my personal physical body.
You told me that Yoga had a profound effect on you. You turned to Yoga in order to find self-mastery, but you also found something spiritual there.
After I missed the 1996 Olympics, I had to assess why I had fallen short and what I could do differently. In competitions, I had a hard time keeping a calm nature. I had so much expectation. I was so prepared, but I was still anxious. So I started yoga, and yoga became a kind of moving meditation for me. Yoga was developed so that people could meditate for longer periods of time. It's an ancient practice, and when I really started pursuing it, I felt more collected and present than I had ever felt before in my life. That was a religious feeling for me. Some yoga is made only for fitness, but it was designed to have a spiritual side as well.

2015 European Games to succeed despite athletics gap
By Karolos Grohmann
BERLIN (Reuters) - Next year's inaugural European Games have generated unexpected media interest, Baku 2015 Chief Operating Officer Simon Clegg said on Friday, despite a complete lack of top track and field athletes from the $1 billion event.
The Azeri capital Baku will host the first continental Games next June, luring top athletes in some sports with 11 direct or indirect qualifiers for the Rio de Janeiro 2016 Olympics.
The June 12-28 event will have a total of 20 sports, 16 of them Olympic and four non-Olympic sports such as karate, sambo and beach soccer.
With 6,200 athletes, the Games are no small affair and Azerbaijan has pumped in more than $1 billion to organize it in just 30 months instead of four years for its successor, to be named next year.
Designed by the European Olympic Committees as a continental competition similar to the Asian Games or the Panamerican Games, it should eventually serve as a springboard to the Olympics for athletes.
"Things are on track and on schedule but there is no complacency on my part," Clegg told Reuters on Friday, less than 200 days before the start.
The former British Olympic Association Chief Executive must also a deliver an event that would quickly attract potential hosts for future editions.
Broadcasting rights have been sold to 90 percent of territories in Europe as well as 21 states in North Africa and the middle East and Japan, said Clegg. Continued...

Originally, this dapper Fostoria little task light would have been mounted on the work surface of a sewing machine, helping to shed a little light on the work at hand. While Fostoria still makes work station lights today, it would be hard to compare anything new to the wonderful patina and history carried by this fixture, which includes an original bayonet bulb.

Converting your vehicle to an electric fan system has several benefits. For one, removing the fan that's mounted on the engine reduces parasitic drag and can increase horsepower. Also, the fans will only turn on when necessary, rather than running all the time. Plus, you can actually get a better cooling system out of the conversion. This article uses the example of a 1995 Chevrolet Silverado that has electric fans; here's how to wire the fans using a relay.
Things You'll Need
- Wire cutters
- Wire crimpers
- Assistant
- blue butt connectors
- 12-volt test light
- 30-amp relay
- Red, black, green, yellow and brown 18-gauge wire, 20-foot lengths
- On/off switch, 12 volts
- Drill and drill bits
- 3/8-inch ratchet and sockets
- Ring terminals
- Self-tapping screws
- Blue spade connectors, male and female
- Zip ties
Pop the hood and find a spot to mount the relay. This is probably easiest on the core support, as it's close to the fans as well as convenient for wiring.
Mount the relay to the mounting spot using the drill and self-tapping screw.
Ground each fan motor by running the black wire from the fan motor to the chassis of the vehicle, using a factory bolt if possible. Crimp a ring terminal to the end of the wire, and unbolt a bolt using the 3/8-inch ratchet and socket set. Do not tighten down this bolt yet, as you'll be using it again.
Crimp a female spade connector onto the end of the black wire using the wire strippers and wire crimper. Run the wire to the bolt where the fan motor is grounded, and crimp a ring terminal to that end. Now bolt everything to the chassis.
Connect the female spade connector on the black wire to the 86 pole of the relay.
Connect the red positive wire from the fan motor to the 87 pole of the relay by stripping the wire and crimping a female spade terminal onto the end of the wire.
Connect a female spade connector to the end of the red wire using the wire strippers and crimpers, and connect it to the 30 pole on the relay. Run the other end to the positive terminal on the battery, attach a ring terminal using the crimpers and wire strippers, and connect to the positive terminal using an open-end wrench.
Locate the air-conditioning compressor on the engine bay. Turn the vehicle on, and use the test light to probe the wires running out of the compressor. You want to find the positive wire that turns on whenever the A/C is turned on, so have an assistant turn the A/C on and off so you can be sure you know which wire is which.
Cut the positive wire going into the A/C compressor about 6 inches back from the plug. Strip 1/2 inch of wire from both cut ends.
Strip the end of the green wire using the wire strippers, and twist it together with one of the cut ends from the A/C compressor. Crimp one end of the blue butt connector onto the paired wires, and crimp the other end onto the remaining cut wire.
Run the rest of the green wire to the relay, making sure to keep it away from any moving or hot parts such as belts or hoses. Strip the end of the wire using the wire strippers, but do not connect to the relay yet.
Strip the end of the yellow wire and twist together with the green wire from the A/C compressor. Crimp a female spade connector onto the end of the wire combination. Plug that spade into the 85 pole on the relay.
Find a spot to mount the on/off switch. Mount it by drilling a hole.
Run the yellow wire into the cab compartment and to the dashboard. Strip the end of the wire, and connect a female spade connector to the end of the wire. Push it onto the middle pole of the switch.
Locate an ignition wire under the steering column using the test light. Turn the ignition key on and off until you find a wire that turns on only when the key is on.
Cut the ignition wire and connect a section of red wire to the ignition wire in the same manner in which you connected the green wire on the A/C compressor. Two wires will go into one end of the butt connector and one into the other.
Connect the red wire to the top pole of the switch using a female spade connector.
Connect one end of a section of black wire to the bottom post of the switch using a female spade connector. Run the other end of the wire to a piece of metal in the dash, and find a spot to bolt it for ground.
Strip the end of the black wire, and crimp a ring terminal to the end of the wire. Secure it to the piece of metal using the 3/8-inch ratchet and sockets.
Clean up all the wiring using the zip ties. Secure the lines to any other part of the vehicle that isn't moving, and make sure the wiring looks neat.

Is this an open roof? Will shaving resolve it? (Photo)
Doctor Answers 3
Open roof
from the pictures it looks like an open roof. Shaving it may help but may make it worse. You may need a revision rhinoplasty to bring the bones together and smooth out the area. Good luck.
Revision, some advices:
Thank you very much for sharing your concerns about your Rhinoplasty with us.
Congratulations for having patience and wait more than six months PO, which is the recommended time allowed to make judgments of value and be precise and accurate.
After having analyzed all the info and photos provided to us, i recommend to perform a Secondary Rhinoplasty (not a tip revision) this means (basically) treat the nasal bones and the nasal cartilages.
Therefore i would perform a narrowing of the nasal base (nose osteotomy) and alar and triangular cartilage shaping.
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-
Is this an open roof? Will shaving resolve it? (Photo)
It is hard to be 100% certain whether or not it is an open roof but there certainly are some concerning features as you've pointed out. As you've astutely pointed out, an open roof is closed not by shaving down but by "closing" or "lateral" osteotomies, where a cut in the nasal bone on each side where the sidewall meets the cheek to allow the sidewalls to lean in further and close the roof. You may benefit from speaking with your surgeon about shaving vs. osteotomies to help resolve what is best for you.
Hope that helps!

But please go over and give your favorite a vote. There are some great authors out there waiting for the privilege of you clicking that button!
Aggression raced across my skin, and the snarl that had started low in my stomach built within me, expanding and racing along my ribs and across my heart to take wings in my throat. The sound that clamored to escape me was tortured and primal, but I refused to allow it to take flight; the need for silence was an absolute necessity. Rage, pure and strong, fueled the need to destroy, my instincts demanding to be obeyed as they screamed for the destruction, decimation, and annihilation of the enemy. The target of my plans paced nervously, unaware of just how limited his time left upon this earth was.
From a great distance, I heard Alice screaming as if she was in pain and the part of me deep inside that needed to relieve her agony responded. Wasn't I doing my very best to eliminate the man who had caused us to be this way?
"Edward!" she screamed.
It was imperative that I ignore her, that I use my speed and ability to hear those around me in order to get to the one that was causing us pain. Distractions could provide the enemy an opportunity to outwit me. Such was what had happened when Aro had taken me…I'd been distracted by my wish to fulfill another's desire, my mate's. The enemy wouldn't have that chance today…for I would destroy the man that dared to believe he could touch one of my own.
Ignoring Alice's pleas to the contrary, I moved quickly, using the shadows to cover me. Giving up on me and on my ability to help her, she screamed out instead for Jasper and Emmett. Taking to the roof, I moved toward the area where I heard his loud and lewd thoughts. They were what betrayed him in the first place. Visions of my daughter wrapped through my mind. Beautiful Renesmee. His intentions for her were what sparked the current need to obliterate.
I could hear a multitude of racing thoughts within the house, contemplations that were centered around the harsh words coming from Alice as she pleaded for help. Then everything went blank, my gift deserting me. Bella… The need for speed and covertness were instantaneously magnified as I sped across the sharp lines of the roof, and I fantasized about tearing at him with my teeth.
Crawling through the window, just down the hall from where the man responsible for my current rage paced surrounded by his lackeys, I made my way stealthily toward him. I heard their raucous laughter and banter. They were loyal to a fault and willing to sacrifice themselves for the good of the whole. But if he thought there was security in numbers, I would soon disabuse him of the thought, because I would destroy anyone that got in my way. Images of broken bodies and carnage filled my mind and amused me.
"Edward!" I heard Alice scream again in warning from below me and then the sound of a large group of individuals approaching. My advance had been betrayed.
There was no more time…it must be now.
Smashing through the door, I caught the confusion on their faces as I tore into the room toward the man that dared to despoil my loved one.
"Edward!" Jacob cried out in concern at the fury on my face. He'd been straightening his bow tie and shrugging on his tuxedo jacket. Immediate recognition of the mistakes he'd made and the consequences rolled through him, and he rightly panicked. "Shit!" He moved to protect those around him. "Seth! Get back!" The young man at his side didn't listen, placing himself between me and Jacob.
Seeing the startled and wary looks on the wolf pack's faces, my rage dissipated instantaneously. And as Seth held his hands out toward me in placation, my control returned. It was almost like a water faucet, the fury within me shutting off as the feral part of me was tamed by the rational. I shook to dispel the aggression that had momentarily controlled me, and Seth watched warily to see if I was successful…he'd been with me before when I'd had to struggle against the aggression within me. He was a good friend, a pure soul.
But Jacob wasn't, and he knew it. And, I still wanted to kill him, but maybe with just a little less pain. A whoosh of air at my back had me spinning and Carlisle collided with me, throwing me into the wall.
"SON!" He had his arm across my chest, holding me back. Worry tinged his golden eyes as he listened to the snarls that instinctually tore out of me at his actions.
Then, my love was in front of me placing her hands to my face as she'd done so long ago when she'd tried to tame the monster within. "Edward… That is Jacob; the man who loves her." She patted my cheeks softly to garner my attention, as she argued with me against our friend's destruction. Alice…she must have told them when she was screaming for help…and then the flashes of her frantic pleas for Emmett, Jasper, and Carlisle washed over me. I'd been too far gone with the rage to acknowledge her quick actions. I would have to thank her later, for although seeing the wolves' faces had broken through the rage, it was good to have Bella and Carlisle here to help me.
Focusing on the heart shaped face in front of me, I growled out as Emmett, Jasper, Rosalie and Alice made our side. Their thoughts crashed over me as Bella released them from her shield. Emmett…the perpetual happy one…was enjoying the show, while Jasper, ever the tactician, warily assessed the room attempting to determine how to deescalate the situation as quickly as possible. Rose supported me…well, to some degree. Nessie was her baby, and the thoughts of handing her over into the Dog's paws still upset her. But like me, she knew that harming Jacob would destroy our angel's heart. Alice, well, she was just exasperated.
I'd been with her one moment, allowing her to straighten the bow time I wore with my tuxedo, and the next, I'd lunged for the window upon hearing Jacob's thoughts. The need to destroy him for thinking of Nessie in such a sexually explicit manner had taken over instantaneously. It was the legacy of my time with Aro…the very reactive and aggressive manner that I sometimes allowed to reign in times of need.
The years had allowed me to develop a sense of self, but my savage nature was now a very large part of who I was. Most often, I could use it for advantageous reasons, rarely dealing with such loss of control. But any perceived harm to my family was a trigger...one that I was still having a little harder time managing.
"Sorry!" Alice squeaked out to the group. "I didn't see it happening until it was too late, and he wouldn't listen." She was quite perturbed at me.
Carlisle looked at me, inspecting my features and determining my mood. Seeing the gold color returning to my eyes and the way I took breaths to provide a focal point for relaxation, just as he'd taught me, comforted him. He smiled gently before saying, "I do believe he'd already started to calm before we arrived, though."
Just seconds before actually, but I still panted in anger, glaring over Bella's shoulder at the man who'd frozen. Seth, of course, took the chance to find humor in the moment.
"Thinking dirty thoughts, Jake?" he smirked, shaking his head at his friend.
It was only because Bella was in front of me and Jasper and Emmett grabbed my arms, that my lunge wasn't successful. Seth's words reminded me of what had started it all.
"Oh God! I'm sorry," Bella cried out, frustrated that she'd allowed her shield around Jacob to drop.
The pack found the situation hilarious, their wolfish laughter filling the room in a good natured manner. Alice, however, was not pleased. The tuxedo I was wearing was ruined, dusty and covered in sheet rock from my destruction of the door and ripped from my traverse across the roof of our house. Her lip curled in disdain at the disorder of my hair.
"Thank goodness I had the foresight to purchase an extra tuxedo, Edward Anthony MCullen!" she growled out, pointing down the hallway toward where I would need to redress for the wedding.
"Daddy!" Renesmee admonished me from across the house, having just figured out what had occurred. Another growl ripped out of me as Jacob turned toward the sound like a magnet.
Emmett and Jasper began to drag me from the room thinking that my more untamed side might reemerge. It was probably the best plan, considering that I wasn't entirely under control.
"Hey, wait!" Jacob called out, stopping them.
"Are you crazy?" Bella yelled at him in disbelief as he came closer to where my brothers restrained me.
He ignored her and moved close enough that if I played my cards right, I might just be able to take a bite out of him. But seeing the gleam in my eyes and recognizing it for what it was, he took a step back. Emmett actually snickered at the retreat, while Jasper hit us all with a calming wave. I narrowed my eyes at my brother so that he could see my disgust. Late much? Jasper didn't have to be a mind reader to know what I was thinking and wisely didn't react to my disgruntled look.
"You know,I love her," Jacob said simply, catching my eyes and maintaining them.
Damn him.
In regards to things he could've said to me, it was the one thing that would not infuriate me to near pathological levels again. What he'd envisioned had almost been the death of him.
"I know!" I hissed.
Jasper tried to hide his smirk, but his thoughts gave him away. He was enjoying the new me.
"What are you smiling about?" I asked shrugging his hand off in an irritable manner. Emmett still held me tightly, so no one panicked at my release from one of them. "Didn't you feel the lust coming off him?"
Jasper rose to his full height, putting his hands behind his back in a relaxed manner. "Yes…but unlike an over-reactive father, I realized that for their wedding day, that anticipation is exactly as it should be. Might I remind you that you were even more…um…excited than Jacob." He arched his eyebrow at me, prompting memories of the day Bella made me the happiest being on this earth. Just to add credence to his statement, he merrily sent me a memory of my virginal self…pacing, worrying with my bow tie, fingers plowing through hair.
"Screw you," I said of his rationality, even as those around me attempted to control their hilarity. My family was reliving similar memories, all focused on the neurotic being I'd been. I had one defense against their reminders. "Charlie didn't have to listen—" Jake had the grace to blush as I stressed the next part "—IN INTIMATE DETAIL as to what I would like to do to his daughter," I pointed out.
"DADDY!" Renesmee shrieked. "Don't make me come down there and ruin everything." Silently, she threw at me, "In my room. Now!"
Glancing over to a very silent and still Jacob, I growled. "Do you think you could at least attempt to control your thoughts?"
His eyes widened in reaction and the humor of this moment overwhelmed both Jacob and me. I'd inadvertently just repeated the request I'd asked of him regarding Bella, back during the time in the tent as we waited for Victoria to strike. And this time, he had the wisdom to not tell me to just not listen. Stepping even closer, he looked to Emmett to remove his hands from me. I saw Carlisle, sensing the crisis was over, grin and turn slightly from us.
"Edward, no one will ever love Nessie the way I will. You know that. I will do my best not to let my thoughts get out of control, but perhaps Bella needs to remember to help me just a little." Jacob's sincerity was plain, and it was the impetus for me to wrap my control around the remainder of the aggression, extinguishing it for now.
Bella grunted at his reproach, but then sniffed in disdain. "I only slipped for a minute. I saw Renesmee and lost it."
Our daughter was a vision…an absolute beauty wrapped in the simple elegant splendor of her mother's wedding gown. As if it would produce tears of love, my throat tightened at the image my wife shared with me. My memory of Bella in the same gown was just as miraculous.
"C'mon Edward. Bella and I have to finish off Ness' hair, which by the way I was about to accomplish when you went all badass Edward." Alice grabbed my hand to reemphasize her command. Bella took the other.
But I loosened my grip on Alice long enough to take Jacob's outstretched hand. That I pulled him in for a tight "father-son" hug and hissed in his ear slightly was just a necessary warning.
He chuckled as I left, knowing that we were fine. Over the past seven years, we'd gotten through Nessie's insistence that she wasn't waiting until she was eighteen in human years to begin their relationship, their dating, my reaction at catching them in their first kiss, Bella's first slip at keeping his lascivious thoughts from me, the day he'd come to ask my permission for her hand, and the day he'd actually run toward me to get away from Nessie and her passion - his muttered, "Your father will kill me," the only thing that saved him. Yes, if we could get through all that…then perhaps I shouldn't kill him on his wedding day.
Bella patted my hand as she pulled me toward our daughter. "What have I told you about saving that type of behavior for me?" she admonished.
The promise in her voice had me grinning like a fool. She was reminding me that there were better outlets for my excessive energy…ones we both found immensely satisfying. "Don't worry love; I have definite plans for our first night as empty-nesters." Alice giggled at the vision that raced through her mind and released me to blur toward Nessie. She was allowing Bella and me privacy, and I took advantage of it.
Leaning over, I whispered, "A night full of stars…our meadow…some silk scarves…some hot wax…" That I didn't care if our family and friends waiting below heard was just a measure of how much my experiences had changed me…Bella was my wife and I was all about enjoying that fact. We'd fought hard for our forever.
I bit the lobe of her ear before I left her standing with her mouth open in shock. As the aggression simmered just below the surface, writhing to break lose and attack her, I smirked in satisfaction. For one, I'd enjoyed the rare splendor of rendering Bella silent, and two, I knew as I envisioned her white skin crisscrossed with sapphire blue silk ties that I fully intended to make good on my promise.
A growl of pure lust threatened to explode from me this time. Yes…there were definitely better things to do with my monster.
Short and sweet! Not sure if I'd rather be Bella or Nessie this night! Smirk.

When eighteen-year-old teleporter Ember Pierce wakes up in a Los Angeles hospital, she remembers only the basics: she's been trained by the government as a spy, she's sent on dangerous missions, and her last assignment - the one that landed her in the hospital - was a setup.
Caden Hawthorne has spent the past ten months of his life grieving Ember's death. So when she shows up in his room like an apparition, he can't believe his eyes. But this Ember is different. Her hair is longer, her skin is paler, her gaze is haunted. She tells him what he's already begun to suspect: someone he trusted betrayed her.
Now, uncertain who is friend and who is foe, Ember and Caden face the toughest mission of their lives - to stay together and survive, as they run from danger toward an unknown future.

Coimbatore, Nov 25: A special meeting of the Coimbatore Corporation Council on Monday, Nov 24 discussed infrastructure schemes under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission. The main focus of the meeting was charges of civic body funds being deposited in a bank in Tiruchi, irregularities in the preparation of detailed project reports and allegations of inaction on shortage of staff.
Councillors of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) and Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) clashed over the issue of shortage of staff. The DMK pointed out the ban on recruitment during the AIADMK regime, when the latter's leader on the Council P. Rajkumar accused the Corporation of inaction on the shortage of staff. This led to heated exchange of words between the councillors of both the parties. "Without the required number of staff, how can the Corporation prove it can perform?"

Jason Witten is Tony Romo's security blanket and get out of jail free card. Witten for all statistics and timely catches is never really targeted in the red zone area, and he'd like that to change. Witten who had one red zone target in 2012 told ESPN that he wants the ball more in that area. "That's something we talked about this year, more than ever," Witten said. "The field gets tight there, and I think part of it is we try to use Dez there with fades on one-on-one coverage. Offensively we just haven't done a good enough job putting points on the board and I'm apart of that. Hopefully I'll get more touches and opportunities, and that's something we worked on this offseason. I felt like in training camp we saw some results of that and I'm excited to see it carry over into the regular season." The Cowboys of course hope that improvements on the offensive line will free up Witten to do what he does best. "That's part of it, trying to get the protection and then get laid out and attacking on the outside," Witten said. "That's just strategy that we've done. Tony has done a real good job the last couple of years with the protection, just finding receivers. You never want to take away from a team finding a way to score. At the same time, you want to maximize with the tight ends. There's a mismatch down there sometimes."

It is unfortunately not unusual for an election to be held in adverse circumstances; recent votes in Iraq and Afghanistan come to mind.
But rarely has an election taken place in conditions as unpropitious as those prevailing in Haiti. To the massive earthquake that devastated much of the country 11 months ago have been added human need far beyond the capacity of international aid organisations, neglect, once the television cameras had left, and now a cholera epidemic that has overwhelmed already inadequate medical services.
As if all this was not enough, the controversy surrounding the origins of the cholera – widely associated, rightly or wrongly, with the arrival of Nepalese peacekeepers – has undermined efforts to enforce law and order and turned popular ire on to the UN. With more than 1.5 million people still homeless, it is hard imagine a worse combination.
The decision, against much advice to the contrary, that this election should go ahead nonetheless can be seen as the one bright spot in this bleak landscape. If the election proceeds smoothly, it could just mark a much-needed new beginning. Many Haitians, weary of corrupt, poor or non-existent leadership, doubt that a new president and a new legislature alone will improve anything. And it is easy to be cynical on their behalf. But leadership can make a difference and there has been no shortage of those putting themselves forward; 19 candidates are contesting the presidency, which makes a January run-off likely.
The UN is responsible for running Sunday's elections, and they must be seen as credible, even if they fall short of being judged 100 per cent free and fair. Without a presentable mandate, no government will be able at once to build morale at home and attract vital funds from abroad. The challenge is huge, but it would be defeatist to dismiss it as impossible.

"Go away, Conway!"
Those were the chants ringing outside an Abbotsford halfway house today.
The city wants convicted three-time sex offender James Conway removed from their neighbourhood immediately.
Parents and children chanting outside the home of Conway are hoping the city's current zoning bylaws will have him removed.
The home where Conway resides in sits on agricultural land which permits residential use but does not permit business use like a halfway house.
Steve Markle lives near the halfway house and he says he's had to make changes to his daily routine.
"Everybody has gates now, they are keeping their gates shut. But this whole area is connected to a network of ravines. It's a causeway behind all these properties, if he wanted to move around."
Some parents are even having to make changes to their daily routine.
"We've had to find alternate methods, we're losing some wages in some cases because people are having to leave work early and arrive late in the morning, just to make sure kids are being taken to school safely".
The city says they've been in contact with BC Corrections and the home operator to resolve the issue.

De shud b HHIS – which may be translated as "They should be hanging their heads in shame."
Such is the scolding that some parents and teachers may want to give children and teenagers after reading the state of their homework, because a new study by a graduate student in linguistics at the University of Calgary confirms what some fear: that text messaging has a negative impact on language skills.
Ever since text messaging took off – Canadians send 154 million texts a day – linguists have debated the impact it has on the English language. Some experts insist that texting encourages creativity and writing, that asking "wot r u doin 2nite" isn't laziness, but rather another way in which English is naturally evolving, as it has done for centuries. Besides, young people know the difference between communicating to make plans for Friday night and writing a formal essay. In New Zealand, educators certainly thought so when in 2006 they approved the use of text speak in high-school exams.
But the naysayers now have some ammunition on their side.
In the Calgary study, a group of university students were asked about their reading habits. Those who read widely in traditional print media such as books and magazines were able to identify more words on a checklist than students who said they did not read as much, but sent and received texts a lot.
Some of the words on the list were real, and others were fictitious. The conclusion was that traditional reading material exposes people to variety and creativity in the language. It helps develop skills that allow the interpretation of new and original words. This is not found in colloquial text speak, which actually constrains the use of English and caused the students to reject many words on the checklist.
It is a triumph for the traditionalists.

I watched a lot of MacGyver growing up. I realize he's somewhat a cultural metaphor to most people these days, and sometimes the butt of home improvement jokes, but the man always managed to get the job done. As a writer, and specifically a fiction writer, I subscribe to the notion that heroic characters need to exhibit traits that we wish we possessed ourselves. And with MacGyver, it was all about getting things done.
For years I carried a red Swiss Army knife in my front left pocket. Just like MacGyver. And as a youth, that was a very handy thing to have around. Open boxes, cut rope, whittle a stick into a marshmallow-roasting implement; I think you get the point. But these days I carry something different in my pocket: index cards.
Sexy, right? Imagine the heads I turn when I pull out a small stack of dog-eared index cards in a coffee shop. They must think I'm the next Don Draper. But I manage to stave off the celebrity by reminding myself of how incredibly practical it is to carry index cards around with me. And I thought I would share those benefits with you as well.
Instant Capture I was in a meeting this week, and much like many meetings, there were assignments sprinkled across the table over the course of the 90 minutes we were there. A task would come up in discussion and one of the attendees would say, "I'll take care of that." But they wouldn't write it down. None of them. Each and every task mentioned went unrecorded. And though it would be difficult to do this, I would like to see what percentage of those assignments were actually completed. Because I doubt all of them were even remembered.
The main reason I carry index cards with me is to capture thoughts, ideas and tasks that will need to be done. And so I was the odd man out in that meeting. I had a single index card in front of me, and a pen, and as tasks fell to my responsibility, or ideas for something else I needed to do occurred to me, I would write them down.
When I'm back at my desk, the next step is simple. I open up the task management app of my choice (I use the Mac app OmniFocus, but any todo app will suffice) and enter all the items into the system. Personally, I assign dates to complete tasks for 100% of the items I enter, but your style may vary. The important thing is to treat the cards as a capture point, and then transfer their contents to the Greater System.
Take Aways Nothing is worse than having a meeting with someone, assigning them a task, and having them forget. You can manage your own forgetfulness with the section above, but other people are seemingly out of your control. Unless you carry index cards with you.
I just wrapped up a meeting with a friend (literally, between writing this section and the last) who is starting up her own greeting card business. Small scale, very personal, and very exciting to talk about. Except she has nearly no idea how to build the foundation of the actual business. Where will she keep the money she earns? How will she ship the product? How can she prepare for taxes next year? All of these things were "OMG moments" when I brought them up. They aren't the sexy part of building a business, but they are just as essential as the product itself.
So, because of her innocent cluelessness, she needed my help. And to help her, I had an index card in front of me for our meeting (noticing a pattern yet?). And rather than writing out what I need to do, I wrote out what she needed to do. I even gave every item a little check-box so she can work through the list like it was her own. And now she can't forget the important pieces of our conversation, because I've written them down and handed them to her on a small card.
I do this in larger settings, too. If I'm in a room full of people and someone asks me for a resource, I will literally take out a card, write down the information and then hand it to them. People forget stuff. They lose things less often. I'm hedging my bets by putting something into their hands. An app recommendation, a book I spoke about or a website that could help them transform their business; I write it all down and give them the card.
Interactive Book Marks Another great use for index cards is as a book mark to a specific book. Especially cards like the Frictionless Capture Cards, where there are some simple fields at the top to write things like the title of the book and the year or author. The cards make a great place to write notes or page numbers that you want to reference at a later time.
When you have completed reading the book, just tape the card to the inside of the front cover. This way, the next time you are reminded of a passage in that book, you can check the card first, rather than randomly flipping through the pages in hopes that you will find the information you were looking for.
Get Some Cards Index cards are great to have around. Keep them on your desk in a little stack or box. Keep 10–20 in your back pocket or your car. Set some beside your bed for those moments when the Idea Fairy throws a brick through the window of your mind. Whatever use you can think of, index cards can meet the challenge.
Life is full of friction. Find tools that help you remove it.

New Delhi, June 21 (ANI): Over the recent years, the incidence of HIV/AIDS cases involving men who have sex with men has increased fivefold in Shanghai, report medical experts.
Following the comments, which were made at a science forum in Beijing, Shanghai is gearing up to launch an intervention and education campaign to fight HIV transmission through unsafe sex, the Friday's Shanghai Daily reported.
Back in 2005, the Shanghai Center for Disease Control and Prevention had started a study of surveying gay males to find out more about their sexual behavior and to discover their HIV/AIDS or syphilis infection rate, reports The China Daily.
The incidence of syphilis from 2005 to 2007 remained around 12 to 13 percent, while HIV/AIDS increased every year. The incidence rate was 1.5 percent in 2005, 4.1 percent in 2006 and 7.5 percent in 2007, according to the survey.
Data from 2008 is not yet available. According to the survey, more than 60 percent of the respondents had more than one male sexual partner.
"The increase in HIV/AIDS cases involving male-to-male sex is a challenge for almost all Asian countries," said Kang Laiyi, an AIDS expert at the Shanghai Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Society is becoming more tolerant of gays and bisexuals, and intervention and education for this group should be intensified," the expert added. (ANI)

The scientific value of the largest remaining old-growth red pine forests in North America

Old growth red pine forests (Pinus resinosa) cover less than 1% of their original range in North America and are essential for maintaining biodiversity at stand and landscape scales. Despite this, the largest remaining old-growth red pine forest in the world, the Wolf Lake Forest Reserve, is currently threatened by mining claims in Northern Ontario and has been receiving considerable media and public attention in recent months. We provide a timely review of how large old growth red pine forests maintain biodiversity at several taxonomic levels (with a focus on trees and plants) through heterogeneous partitioning of limiting resources such as light and nitrogen, formation of complex habitats through increased accumulation of coarse woody debris, and the maintenance of natural disturbance-driven succession. These processes shape the overstory community, allowing for the regeneration of pines, coexistence of early-mid successional shade intolerant species and cross-ecotonal establishment of late successional tree species in response to regional warming over the past three decades. Using Wolf Lake as a case study, we review legislation and policy complexities around this issue and provide scientific arguments for the preservation of this forest. We invoke recent insights into the ecological role of refugia, the development of criteria for assessing endangered ecosystems, and the challenges of conservation in the face of climate change and disturbance regimes. These forests are ecologically important and provide a scientifically irreplaceable system for assessing baseline ecosystem function, processes and services. As the largest remaining old-growth red pine forest in the world, Wolf Lake Forest Reserve deserves intensive study, monitoring and full protection from future development.
