Road to Serendipity
Leaving was the only thing on her mind as she stood on the corner of the road, looking at the city streets all around her as they wound down twisty roads and crowded streets. Cold air brushed her muddy-brown hair across her eyes as she pulled it back behind her ear and walked on without looking back. Summer never wanted to look back at the life she was leaving behind as the teenager hailed a cab and climbed in the back seat and without looking up she said calmly, "Seventy fifth street." Slowly the yellow cab pulled away from the curb of the gum covered, over crowded road that backed onto a row of apartments. Ignoring the voices inside her head, screaming at her to turn back and avoid the pain she would suffer for leaving. Nothing would make Summer want to go back to the life she so desperately wanted to leave behind, finally the ache in her heart would disappear and she could live how she wanted to without anyone telling her what to do. Neon lights and street lamps flickered into existence as the sun began to fall back behind the towering sky scrapers. The city of New York had come alive in these past few minutes as the cab cruised down the chaotic streets. It was as if the other cars had given way for her as she started her long journey out of the city. Because unlike most people her age, Summer was starting her life for the first time, taking those first precious steps into the big world. Voices still echoed in her head, running round and round in her mind as she fought against them, trying desperately not to cry as she thought back to just this morning. Terror gripped her and Summer sat up straight, to tense to sit back in fear of them coming after her. The driver of the taxi gave her a curious look in his mirror, the licence said his name was Pedro and ven though it was dark he was still wearing sunglasses. After what felt like an age, Summer saw the sign marking out her destination and at the end of the road she could see the entrance to the subway. It was quieter at this time of day, just after rush hour and the only crowds were from arriving or departing planes at the neearest airport, New York JFK. She wasn't leaving on a plane, it was easier just to catch a train and it would be cheaper too, it would have been harder to steal her fathers money, and more obvious, instead she had saved for the past few months. The long journey would be easier once Summer was away from all the busy crowds and a bit out of the bustling city that never sleeps. Heart pounding, Summer paid her fee and walked shakily out onto the side walk and down the steep steps to the platform. Her train was already waiting when she got there, the doors opening as if they were bekoning to her. Closing her eyes, Summer walked on board and into an empty carriage. Strange. Sitting anxiously, the young girl leant to the left as the carriage pulled away from the platform, her heart was pumping visously in her chest because out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a sturdily built man on the platform. A trickle of fear ran down her spine and it turned into a full flowing river when she recognised the man she had just laft behind. Her father had almost caught her, he had been so close that it was too terrifing to think of what could have happened. It was a long train ride to the end of the road and Summer settled down in her red patterened seat, it was hard and uncomfertable but atleast she was alone.

A 19-track collection of otherwise unavailable live performances from 1966-1968, taken from shows in Melbourne, Stockholm, London, and the '67 Monterey Pop Festival, as well as radio and television broadcasts. Most of this dates from the psychedelic version of the band, which will disappoint those who are primarily interested in the group's rock/R&B prime. It's quite a good relic, though, with rough and ready execution by both Burdon and the band, and some unusual R&B and psychedelic material alongside the versions of hits like "Inside Looking Out," "Monterey," "San Franciscan Nights," and "When I Was Young." Sound ranges from fair to very good.
The Animals were a British band of the 1960s, formed in Newcastle upon Tyne during the early part of the decade. The band moved to London upon finding fame in 1964.
The original band, The Animals, broke up in 1966 and this band was entirely new except for lead singer Eric Burdon and drummer Barry Jenkins, who joined the original lineup when John Steel left in February 1966. With the new band, featuring guitarist Vic Briggs, bassist Danny McCulloch and electric violinist John Weider, Burdon began to move from the gritty blues sound of the original mid-1960s group into psychedelic music. All albums for sale by Eric Burdon & The Animals was released May 29, 2013 on the Universal Japan label.

Why are we asking this question now?
Cardinal Keith O'Brian, head of Scotland's Roman Catholic population, has voiced concerns that a breakdown of sectarian offences has revealed that Catholics are most likely to be victims of offences linked to religious prejudice. According to the Cardinal the extent of aggression towards Catholics has demonstrated that sectarianism in Scotland is more than just "alcohol-induced post-match revelry and hooliganism".
The figures released by the Crown Office in November 2004 looked at 110 offences that resulted in pleas or findings of guilty, it found there were twice as many offences against Catholics than Protestants. Out of 110 recorded incidents, Catholics were the target in 63 per cent of instances and Protestants in 29 per cent. Islam was the target in 1 per cent and Judaism in another 1 per cent.
According to Cardinal O'Brian, analysis of the figures, when population share is taken into account, demonstrates that Catholics are almost eight times likelier than Protestants to be victims of a sectarian crime. He wants to see more action taken to address the social and political climate which allows this to happen.
How bad is the problem?
Although legislation was passed in 2003 to allow all religious prejudice to be treated as an aggravating factor in offences in Scotland, sectarianism continues to be prevalent in everyday life. While the focus of the traditional hostility between the faiths has been blamed on a culture of football hooliganism the statistics suggest that much of the violence occurs away from the terraces.
The 2004 Crown Office survey revealed that 85 per cent of sectarian attacks were not related to football at all.
Over the past three years there have been in the region of 1,455 cases reported by police to prosecutors. More than half of these offences, some 830, occurred in Glasgow alone. Court proceedings were launched in 1,286 cases of which 752 were in and around Glasgow. The result was a total of 850 convictions, of which 488 were in Glasgow. Some 109 other cases are still waiting to be heard.
During any Old Firm game between Rangers and Celtic it is estimated that emergency call-outs for Accident and Emergency teams will increase by 66 per cent, the vast majority of those are made up of violent or drunken assaults between opposing fans.
Considering that within the past 20 years it wasn't acceptable for a Rangers player to have a Catholic girlfriend, and no Catholic played for the club until the late 1980s, it is easy to see how the problem has been perpetuated. Even Rangers player Paul Gascoigne got in on the act a few years ago when he was disciplined for imitating playing a flute at one match - a reference to the flute bands used to head the Orange marches - in front of the crowd.
How did it start?
The roots of sectarianism in Scotland go back as far as the 16th century and the Reformation, which was far more popular in Scotland than in England.
As Protestantism became the official religion anti-Catholic sentiments and legislative provision became accepted. By the 17th century non-Catholic Scots were emigrating to Ireland resulting in conflict between the Irish Catholics and Scots settlers culminating in the Scottish population of Ulster fighting against the Jacobites at the Battle of the Boyne, which is marked to this day by Orange parades in Glasgow.
Then in the 18th and 19th century many Irish, driven out of their homes by famine and poverty, migrated to Scotland - many of them settling in Glasgow looking for work. The competition between rival faiths and mutual mistrust created a hotbed of sectarian feeling which has been perpetrated ever since.
As recently as 1923, the Church of Scotland produced a report called "The Menace of the Irish Race to our Scottish Nationality" and Church ministers, the Orange Order and the Conservative Party lobbied against Irish immigrants, many of whom were Catholic, over fears that they were a threat to job security.
In 1931, the Scottish Protestant League won seats on Glasgow City Council and an even more vitriolic anti-Catholic Party, Protestant Action, won six seats on Edinburgh council in 1936. Anti-Catholic feeling was passed down from generation to generation, often reinforced by the fact that children were kept apart as Catholics went to their own schools supported by the church.
How is prejudice manifested?
Sectarianism and religious bigotry have been accepted as part of a way of life in many parts of Scotland, especially the central belt and on the west coast in particular, for hundreds of years. Generations of Scots have been brought up in a culture of division which has seeped into almost every aspect of daily life in many communities.
Seemingly innocuous questions, such as what's a person's favourite colour or which school did they go to, can be enough to start trouble or discriminate against job applicants. Even an individual's name, particularly if it is of Irish origin, can make a difference between acceptance or hostility from opposing communities. And euphemistic terms used to describe the followers of the opposing faiths, such as Left Footers and Tims for Catholics and Right Footers and Billies for Protestants, often conceal an undercurrent of enmity. Orange Order parades are a common sight in Glasgow, which also helps to fuel the attitude of "them and us" among a divided community.
What is being done to combat sectarianism?
Two years ago, Jack McConnell, First Minister, promised to combat the problem. Legislation has been introduced which outlaws sectarian behaviour and football clubs in particular have been targeted to rid the terraces of sectarian chants and songs. Fans who insist on goading their rivals over religious differences can now be prosecuted and banned from future matches.
In addition to tougher legislation on hate crime offences, the Scottish Executive is also targeting children in an attempt to educate new generations and end the scourge of sectarianism.
New teaching materials for schools have been issued to schools to promote enlightened attitudes and help children, brought up in a culture of bigotry to understand and celebrate religious diversity.
Is enough being done to combat sectarianism in Scotland?
* New legislation has been introduced that outlaws any hint of sectarianism and the courts are taking a tougher line with offenders
* That Scotland is becoming a more tolerant society is illustrated by the backlash against any public figures airing sectarian attitudes
* Anti-discrimination education has led to an increase in the number of Scots who would support a ban on all sectarian marches
* The rate of violent offences recorded by the courts suggest that Catholics are far more likely to be victims than perpetrators
* Half of Scottish Catholics believe their religion makes a difference to how they are treated in employment
* Gazprom would make the UK far too reliant on Russian gas at a time when government policy is to diversify energy suppliesReuse content

Detroit Electric to sell $135,000 sports car
More than 100 years after it began making cars, Detroit Electric is back in business.
The automaker is unveiling in Detroit the SP:01, a limited-edition electric sports car.
Detroit Electric was founded in 1906 and built 13,000 electric cars. Among its customers were Thomas Edison, John D. Rockefeller and Henry Ford's wife, Clara. But the company halted production in 1939, overcome by the Great Depression and drivers' growing preference for gasoline-fueled engines.
Detroit Electric was revived five years ago by Albert Lam, a former Lotus Cars and Apple Inc. executive. The company has set up offices in Detroit's historic Fisher Building and plans to build its cars in Michigan.
The two-seat, $135,000 SP:01 has a top speed of 155 miles per hour and can go from zero to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, the same as BMW's high-performance M5 sedan. Detroit Electric says it will be the world's fastest pure electric production car.
Detroit Electric will make 999 SP:01s. They'll be sold worldwide starting in August.

University of South Florida, Tampa, FL
SESSION TITLE: Quality Innovation, Transformation and Design Posters
SESSION TYPE: Original Investigation Poster
PRESENTED ON: Wednesday, October 30, 2013 at 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM
PURPOSE: Increasing attention is being given to the importance of communication in the delivery of high-quality healthcare. One commonly identified solution to inadequate communication is the implementation of electronic medical record (EMR). We sought to determine whether communication improved in a hospital setting following the introduction of EMR.
METHODS: This cohort design occurred at a tertiary care, academic hospital. We enrolled 75 patient-nurse-physician triads prior to the introduction of EMR and 123 triads after the introduction EMR. Patients, nurses, and physicians answered several questions about the plan of care for the day. Responses were scored for degree of agreement and summed to obtain a Total Agreement Score. Nurses and patients answered questions about their communication with the physician that day.
RESULTS: Although there was no difference in the frequency of nurses reporting communication with physicians before and after EMR, face-to-face communication was significantly reduced after EMR (67% vs 51%, p = 0.02). There was no difference in the frequency of patients reporting communication with physicians before and after EMR. Total Agreement Score was significantly lower after the implementation of EMR (p = 0.03). Patients were also less likely to accurately estimate their expected length of stay after EMR (p < 0.01). Lack of face-to-face communication between the physician and nurse was an independent predictor of 30-day readmission (OR 2.15, 95% CI:1.03-4.48, p = 0.04).
CONCLUSIONS: The implementation of EMR was associated with a decrease in face-to-face communication between physicians and nurses and worsened agreement about the plan of care. Lack of face-to-face communication was associated with an increased risk of 30-day readmission.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Although EMR provides advantages through enhanced information sharing, the importance of preserving interpersonal communication is demonstrated by this study. Efforts toward communication skills training and the modification of clinical workflows in the setting of EMR are necessary to facilitate quality communication.

French crowds are notoriously sparse during matches that clash with
lunchtime at Roland Garros but it was still a shock for Tramlines to hear the
support for Novak Djokovic during his second round match.
'Hear' is, of course, the wrong word. TL could hear nothing.
Despite Djokovic being undoubtedly the best player in the world this year, the
crowd was practically silent during the whole match.
Eurosport pundit Mats Wilander said Djokovic
still has some way to go before winning over the French crowd after they were
nowhere to be seen during his first round match.
On that particular occasion, he played at lunchtime. Why someone
would shell out money for tickets to watch the tennis on Court Philippe
Chatrier and then not actually watch the tennis is beyond TL. But it is a
little more understandable.
Today, however, Djokovic played at around about 6pm in the afternoon
and the stadium was relatively full.
Okay, so Djokovic did not have to produce his best tennis against an
opponent who, although solid, was never really at the races. Nonetheless Djokovic
did come up with some amazing retrievals and also some cracking passing shots.
And yet the biggest cheer of the entire match, came during a change
of ends early in the third set when news that Richard Gasquet had won his match
in four sets over on Court 1 appeared on the screen.
Tramlines is all for patriotic support but surely the French crowd
should be able to bring themselves to occasionally applaud or cheer the
unbeaten world number two?
Just a quick word on the dramatic scenes that ended the day in
Paris when Germany's Sabine Lisicki had to be stretchered off Court 1 in tears
at the end of her two hours and 40 minute clash against world number three Vera
Desperately short of match practice after 18 months decimated by a
bad ankle injury, Lisicki threw everything she had into her clash
with Zvonareva and very nearly dumped the third seed out of the tournament.
But the Russian saved match points before bouncing back to seal the
match when Lisicki hit long before the German, who was on an upward trajectory
before injury hit in late 2009, collapsed in floods of tears.
It's never nice to see that happen to any player, in any sport, and
TL wishes Lisicki a speedy recovery back to the kind of form she produced when
she reached the quarter-finals at Wimbledon
two years ago.
DAY: "I never played mix doubles cuz I don't know what are the rules
on and off the court.Not sure if I can hit it hard or not. The ball that is.."
A frequent visitor to this section of Tramlines, Ivo Karlovic can always be
relied upon to come up with the wacky comments of the day.
DAY: "I think it's a tough one to call. It's two great teams but
at the same time I like Barcelona.
So, yeah, I hope a little bit that they will win." Forget the tennis, avid
Liverpool fan Caroline Wozniacki gets involved
in the important conversation of the day.
DAY: It was not a single point that caught TL's eye today, so much as several shots from one player in particular. It looked for all the world like Juan
Martin Del Potro had been personally offended by the little yellow ball as he
hit out blistering forehand after blistering forehand against Blaz Kavcic. Tramlines
is surprised there was any fluff left on any of them by the end of that match
and if Del Potro can reproduce that shot against Djokovic, who in turn has the
best backhand on the tour this year, we could be in for a real treat in two
days time when the two of them meet in the third round.
DAY FIVE: Tramlines has started it's prediction service for the second Grand
Slam of the year in blistering fashion.
After picking Rafael Nadal's match against John Isner as the one to
watch on day three (hardly a difficult call, if we're honest) TL is now riding
a wave a glory after also picking Zvonareva-Lisicki as a match to watch.
And so, watch it all come crashing down around our ears, as TL
looks for the hightlight of day five amongst the schedule.
Ninth seed Petra Kvitova could definitely be tested by Jie Zheng. The
Chinese player is not on her best surface at Roland Garros, but she is more
than capable of creating an upset and rising-star Kvitova will be wary.
Likewise, in the men's game, 10th seed Mardy Fish could face a very
stern test when he takes on Robin Haase of the Netherlands.
Fish has never gone beyond the second round at the French Open,
while world number 54 Haase is high in confidence after reaching the
quarter-finals in Nice last week before beating clay-court specialist Daniel
Gimeno-Traver in the opening round.
So there you have it, two predictions for the price of one.

New York, Feb 12 (ANI): India, Brazil, Germany and Japan have said that there is a need to open up the United Nation Security Council (UNSC) to new members.
External Affairs Minister SM Krishna and his counterparts from Brazil, Germany and Japan-Antonio de Aguiar Patriota, Guido Westerwelle and Takeaki Matsumoto, met at the UN headquarters here to begin a new campaign for permanent UNSC seats.
In a joint statement issued here, the ministers agreed that as democracies with shared political values, including respect for the rule of law, respect for human rights and a commitment to multilateralism, the G4 countries hold a number of common positions on major contemporary challenges to international peace and security.
They expressed satisfaction over important contributions being made by their countries to the working of the Security Council and to the maintenance of international peace and security.
Reaffirming their willingness and capacity to take on major responsibilities in this regard, they stated that the international system would benefit from the expansion of the UN Security Council, which would ensure that the Council is truly reflective of current geopolitical realities and make it stronger, more representative, legitimate, effective and efficient.
They also reiterated their commitment as aspiring new permanent members of the UN Security Council, as well as their support for each other's candidatures.
The G4 countries also reaffirmed their view of the importance of Africa to be represented in the permanent membership of an enlarged Council. They also reconfirmed the need for additional non-permanent members and improvement in the Council's working methods.
The ministers expressed gratitude for the efforts made by the President of the General Assembly, Joseph Deiss and Ambassador Zahir Tanin, the Chair of the intergovernmental negotiations, for their facilitating role in the negotiations among the member states.
The Ministers stressed that the ongoing intergovernmental negotiations made it clear that the overwhelming majority of the member states support expansion in both the permanent and non-permanent categories of the Security Council membership, as well as increased representation of developing countries in both.
They also recognized that there is widespread support for a member-states driven initiative to take the process of the much-needed reform of the Security Council towards a concrete outcome in the current session of the UN General Assembly.
The ministers, therefore, agreed to press ahead, with all necessary steps to achieve at the earliest an expansion in both the permanent and non-permanent membership categories of the Security Council.
Towards this goal, the G4 countries reaffirmed their readiness to reach out to other countries and to work in close cooperation with them in a spirit of flexibility.
They agreed to meet again within the coming quarter to review progress on the decisions taken. (ANI)

With some clubs deep into preseason, a few final touches are being made by most clubs with the expansions sides trying to finish their first-year rosters.
Few moves were made around the NASL in the final stretch of February, but one of those moves was made by the Cosmos.
First up, Gabriel Farfán joined the Cosmos on a loan from Chiapas FC of Mexico. He offers versatility and can play both in the midfield and the back line.
To read more about him, click here.
The Eddies made one addition to their attacking corps, signing American forward Jason Plumhoff. The 24-year-old attacking mid spent last season with the Harrisburg City Islanders and notched 10 goals in his 22 appearances.
Miami signs another keeper in Lionel Brown. The 28-year-old spent the last four seasons with the Strikers, making four appearances last year. That makes two former NASL keepers from Florida with them. David Sierra signed with them earlier after spending 2015 with the Armada.
After signing his twin Pedro, Puerto Rico FC signed 25-year-old midfielder Paulo Mendes. The ex-New York Cosmos player was with the Silverbacks (and his brother) last year, starting 7 of his 15 appearances. Before that, he spent the last two seasons with the Cosmos.
They also signed Puerto Rican national team player Jorge Rivera. He can be utilized as forward or midfielder.
Rayo OKC also made a pair of signings to round out the month, both who have played on their respective national teams.
First up was 30-year-old forward Robbie Findley. The US international played at the World Cup in South Africa. He joins from Toronto FC where he made 26 appearances and scored twice. He also spent six years with Real Salt Lake and time with Nottingham Forest.
Rayo next signed Richard Menjivar, a midfielder who spent last season with the Rowdies, making 13 appearances and scoring once after being loaned there by the Scorpions for whom he made one appearance in 2015. He spent 2014 with San Antonio and 2013 with Atlanta. Menjivar, who was both an El Salvador and US youth international, now plays for the El Salvador MNT.
Tampa Bay made one move to close out the month. Eric Avila was signed to a one-year contract with a club option for 2017. The 28-year-old attacking midfielder spent last season on loan to Orlando City SC from Santos Laguna of Liga MX, and started 15 of his 21 appearances, scoring once. He spent the two years before that with Chivas USA and was with Toronto and Dallas before that.
Getting quieter and quieter. Of the six teams that made moves, four are in preseason match mode and the Eddies just began theirs. Would expect less and less signings from here on out with the obvious exception being the expansions teams.
Not sure, how I feel about Farfán, yet. The utility aspect he offers is a nice touch and I still need to watch the Fresno footage, but the San Jose match didn't really impress me. Then again, it's his second preseason match against an MLS side that was playing its final friendly prior to their season start. We'll see how it goes as preseason continues.
I was hoping the off-season would be a nice relaxing time after our first year of recording the Cosmos Country Podcast but all of these signings have worn me out.
That being said, Rayo OKC will be interesting to watch as the Findlay signing could be something to watch. Here is a guy with MLS and US National Team experience and is still only 30 years old. He could be a Golden Boot contender in 2016.
Puerto Rico is just starting to fill out their roster and I imagine we will see more and more signings over the next few months, however, we will be in full Spring Season mode so many of those signings might go unnoticed.
We are a month away from the first matches. Can we get down to it already?

They spoke out over the likely demise of the £380 million plan to house creative industries on the site of the Olympic media centre.
Most of the media facilities are expected to be temporary after private funding for a permanent development dried up during the credit crunch.
Local politicians say that without the media centre, Hackney will be the poor relation of the other four Olympic boroughs - Newham, Tower Hamlets, Greenwich and Waltham Forest.
They warn that it will enjoy few economic benefits but still suffer noise and pollution. Residents of Leabank Square in Hackney Wick have already written to International Olympic Committee president Jacques Rogge to complain about the disruption during building work.
Assembly member Andrew Boff, the Conservative Olympics spokesman, said: "It's the borough that the Olympics forgot. Hackney residents are going to have to pay a price for the Games both environmentally and through their pockets. Newham is obviously going to get some regeneration benefits."
Mr Boff, who was defeated in the race to be Hackney mayor by Labour's Jules Pipe, added: "Originally, all sorts of promises were made and permission given on the basis of the Olympics coming to London. Now that supposed legacy is not going to be inherited. It looks as if people are just going to have to pay more bills. The awful thing about [the Games] is the lack of thought about the legacy - it was sold to Londoners on the basis of certain legacies and these seem to be receding.
"People are starting to ask questions because the Games were sold to them on the promise of the media centre. I would say the mood now is cynical."
The Olympic Park will be on Hackney's doorstep and the handball arena, which will become a multi-sports facility, is within its borders.
But critics say these legacies alone will not deliver the promised 8,000 high-quality jobs. Meg Hillier, Labour MP for Hackney South and Shoreditch, said: "We're not so worried about not having the stadium. We want the legacy, not the glory."
Mr Pipe was a 2012 enthusiast and convinced residents of the employment benefits from the media centre, which was originally to have been the size of Canada Tower in Canary Wharf. He wants a blue-chip anchor tenant for the site but so far talks with 30 companies have failed to produce results.
Hackney council said: "We are continuing to fight for permanent buildings for our legacy vision of a digital village that will allow for the growth of Hackney's expanding creative industries."Reuse content

Title: Kisses of rain.
Beta: A huge thanks goes to Cariel for beta reading this for me and making it all spiffy like! DDisclaimer: Not mine. None of it.
Summery: Only one man keeps his Spartan reserve… A brief ficlet of Leonidas thoughts as he watches the stormy ocean and sky demolish the Persian navy…
Authors note: Love this pairing? want to see the SW version? be sure to visit Cariel's (User ID: 296706) for more! ;)
Kiss of Rain.
The scent of rain hangs in the air like a silent invitation, or a hidden smile meant solely for him. Though he knew it was foolishness to believe in such things, the king couldn't help but imagine that this is a gift from his queen, his goddess. Though she is not physically near, the warrior can smell her perfume in the wind –the soft scent of waterflowers. He could feel her eyes watching him through the clouds that overlooked their position. Though he couldn't see her, the warrior king knew his queen was smiling and knew that with her smile, even the heavens would gladly tear themselves open and bleed for her.
The rain came without hesitation and without apology, not unlike his beloved who he knew was watching over them even now. Standing at the edge of the jagged cliff, he stared ahead, watching as the heavens and the vast waters below danced to the drums of thunder and the crashing of waves. The mighty battleships, feared by many, didn't stand a chance against the storm's siren song and tossed about like toys against the merciless rocks that decorated the shore.
All around the king, the warriors cheered and danced, singing their praises to the great goddess herself. The warrior king silently raised his shield over his head to ward off the piercing rain. Though he stared ahead at the ocean, he did not see the destruction of the enemy vessels.
A small smile graced his lips.
'Do you always enjoy sneaking up on ladies who wish to bathe in the rain?'
His eyes softened to the memory of his beloved's teasing words and the mischievous smile that was accented by her freckles. For a moment, it was not the storm ahead, or the ships capsizing that he saw. Instead, his thoughts are on the lush green knolls near their palace where he had accidentally stumbled upon the beautiful woman whom in time would grant him permission to be her king.
'My lady, only a god would have the strength to turn away upon finding themselves in the presence of a goddess.'
She gave him an impish smile and a wink in reply before continuing on bathing herself, though it was obvious now that she was flirting with him through her subtly seductive actions. In silence, he watched feeling as though he had stumbled upon something entirely sacred. She enjoyed teasing him in this way just as much as he enjoyed being teased.
It was only when he was certain he'd go mad with desire that she paused to give him a look that said all that needed to be said. Only a god could have the strength to resist the siren call of a goddess.
She once told him that there was nothing greater in the world than making love in the rain; she was right. Even now, he could almost feel her fingers dancing along his chest, the way her lips tasted against his own, and the gentle scent of water-soaked flowers lingering in the air long after she departed.
The ocean was her throne room, the heavens her temple. Though she in time came to call him her king, he always knew that, in reality, he was nothing more than a mortal on whom a blessing no man could ever hope to receive was bestowed. She was a goddess in mortal form.
Though his subjects and comrades would claim this storm was from the gods or the Force, he knew who was to thank for this unexpected blessing. When the rains began to calm, turning the blustering winds into a soft breeze, he was reminded of the gentle, lazy kisses exchanged after long hours of stormy and passionate lovemaking.
While she couldn't be with him in person, he knew she was near, watching over him, watching over all of his men. This was more than just a blessing, a gift from the gods; this was a message of love, an unspoken promise given to a mortal by his queen, his goddess, and his love. She once told him that no matter how great the storms may be, or how long the dark hours might be, they were in it together. She would never leave his side; if she could not be with him in the flesh, she would be with him in his heart.

A lot of times when people plan for weddings, they tend to choose local stores in order to provide them with their dresses, gowns, and tuxedos. Unfortunately, doing this can end up costing a pretty penny. This ought to come as no surprise, as local stores were always the best bet for this sort of thing for decades. However, with the rise of the internet, more and more people have found that going on the internet in order to find the best deal. When looking for navy bridesmaid dresses, this is typically a good idea as it can give you an interactive look at all of the options that you possibly have for your dresses. Not only that, but with all of the retailers that are available on the World Wide Web, it is possible to compare pricing in order to make sure that you are getting the best quality for the best price.
This, of course, does not only apply to dresses and gowns, but it also applies to the tuxedos that you will need for your groom and your groomsmen. There is no reason to just settle for whatever price you might get offered at your local store when you can allow retailers to compete for your business by checking out all of the possible options available to you. Why would you ever settle for your first option when you can do your research and get the best possible price?
The internet is a wonderful tool for a number of things, and shopping for dresses, gowns, and tuxedos is definitely one of them. If you are planning a wedding and have enough time to wait for the attire to ship to you, shopping on the internet is definitely an excellent option for you.

Originally posted on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 11/14/12
Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio writes that Rams WR Danny Amendola is "performing at a level that will compel the Rams to apply the franchise tag" on him during the offseason. Last year, St Louis placed a second-round tender on Amendola and was able to retain him for a very reasonable salary of $1.972 million. He's clearly out performed that deal and is deserving a long-term contract, even though he does have a history of injuries. Amendola returned from a separated clavicle and put up 102 yards on 11 catches against one of the leagues best defenses. He's clearly the Rams best offensive weapon, so there's at least a chance they could franchise him during the offseason. We have him currently listed as the No. 32 best available free agent in our Top 50 Free Agents List, but that figures to change in the coming days.

text: Phase II efficacy study on-goingInovio continues patient recruitment for its phase II study of VGX-3100, which is designed to enroll 148 patients with cervical dysplasia at multiple study centers. This randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study will assess regression of cervical lesions from CIN 2/3 or CIN 3 to CIN 1 or complete regression of the lesions. The secondary endpoint is to assess the clearance of HPV 16 or 18. Subjects will also be monitored for tolerability and safety. Inovio expects results from this trial late next year. See the HPV-003 clinical trial protocol. About Cervical Dysplasias/Cancers Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the causative agent responsible for most cases of cervical cancer. At any given time, approximately 10% of women worldwide are infected with HPV. While roughly 70% of HPV infections are cleared by the body on its own, persistent HPV can lead to dysplasia, or premalignant changes in cells, of the cervix. Researchers have estimated the global prevalence of clinically pre-cancerous HPV infections at between 28 and 40 million. Persistent dysplasias may then progress to cancer. Every year, 510,000 cases of cervical cancer are diagnosed worldwide, and about 288,000 of the afflicted women die. Preventive vaccines such as GARDASIL® and CERVARIX® are playing an important role in limiting new HPV infections. However, preventive vaccines cannot provide protection for those already infected, which is a large population. In addition, a significant number of the girls and women eligible to be vaccinated are not receiving these preventive vaccines. There is no viable therapeutic vaccine or drug to treat HPV, nor dysplasias and cancers caused by HPV. Current ablative or surgical procedures to remove cervical dysplasias and cancers are unappealing due to their potential for disfigurement, the perceived negative impacts on childbirth, and the stress of the watch-and-wait approach that typically precedes these procedures.

For example, the information provided by suppliers of paper chemicals to paper mills is analysed in detail. This allows for greater understanding by users and therefore awareness of the possible implications of handling a given chemical with respect to its impact on the working environment, the final product and the environment beyond the mill. The information currently available is collected, summarised and systematised so that users bombarded with inconsistent Safety Data Sheets can make intelligent use of them or can ask sensible questions of their suppliers. Emphasis is on providing guidance on how to find a commercially realistic path between over evaluation and under evaluation of potential health and environmental risks.
'a clearly written and concise guide to the terminology and its broader meaning.'

New York Knicks Agree To Trade Wayne Ellington To Sacramento Kings
Earlier today it was reported that the New York Knicks was looking to trade newly acquired guard Wayne Ellington.
Phil Jackson has finally found a trade partner.
According to Sam Amick of USA Today, Knicks will trade Wayne Ellington, forward Jeremy Tyler and a 2016 second-round pick to the Sacramento Kings for forward Quincy Acy and Travis Outlaw.
The protection on the second round pick (picks 31-37) will be removed as part of the deal.
As part of the deal, the Knicks agreed to remove the protection (picks 31-37) on the 2016 second-round draft pick they sent to Sacramento in 2013.
Frank Isola of the New York Daily News is reporting that this may not be an end to future Prigioni trade rumors as he may still move the point guard.

Chapter 4: Induction (part 4)
Racieus was relieved when the morning came and his eyes snapped right open to the sounds of people getting up and ready up and down the hallway. Racieus, still in the same clothes he had been wearing for the last several weeks, jumped out of bed and pulled on his boots. If he was lucky, he'd run into Taryn and be able to retrieve his money.
Racieus bounded out of his room and followed the small groups of people down the stairs to a large room on the first floor. Some of the younger members were carrying plates with food, and Racieus, stomach growling profusely, traced the line of recruits back to a window in the far left corner of the room. He received a few suspicious looks along the way, probably from people who had seen him hauled in by Kellam, whom Racieus hadn't seen since last night. He wondered what Lieran had done with him.
After Racieus had filled a plate with eggs, and a few strips of meat, the guild master entered and the room went silent. He made his way through the crowd and came to a slightly raised podium along the back wall.
Lieran didn't immediately speak, but instead took a moment to survey the crowd, his eyes lingering for just a moment when he spotted the young halfling scarfing down his first real breakfast in quite some time.
"I would like to set a few things straight" the assassin said, when he finally addressed the guild. "First off, as you all can see, I am not dead." A loud cheer erupted at this and would have gone on for quite some time had the guild master not waved it away. "This means that all orders, edicts, and changes made by the late usurper Vance, are undone, aside from a few matters that I have discussed with some of the senior ranking members." Lieran rattled off a brief list, mostly consisting of minor warranted punishments and dismissals of recruits.
"Also," he announced when he had exhausted the list, "We have a new recruit whose arrival here started off on the wrong foot. He was wrongly sentenced to death by Vance, but, on my order, has been made an entrant to the guild in good standing, and will be taking part in tonight's tournament. Racieus!"
Lieran pointed, and all eyes turned to the halfling, but not a sound was made. This was partly because just at that moment, the halfling had taken a large mouthful of his food and looked quite ridiculous as he chewed it, but the other denizens, members and trainees alike, were shocked at what they saw.
"A halfling?" Came a voice from somewhere in the crowd.
"Indeed," replied Lieran, "And I would not make the mistake of underestimating him as Kellam did." The guild master paused for a brief moment, building a little curiosity before casually remarking, "Whom you can see is no longer with us."
He clapped his hands together, ending that particular discussion before exclaiming, "And now, the tournament!" More cheers than before burst out, filling the large room with a cacophony of sound. "It will begin when the sun sets and will take place here in the guild house." The announcement was met with a chorus of groans. In such a confined space, the first few minutes would be chaos, and maneuverability would be greatly hampered.
And for Racieus, the entire fight would take place in unfamiliar territory.
"The format of the tournament is as it always has been. You will be free to use a weapon, or several, of your choice, but it must be submitted for enchanting. No tampering will be done other than the enchantment, which dulls the blade and marks defeated opponents as 'out.' During the tournament, when you hit a an opponent, a colored mark will appear where you hit, and the mark enchantment on your opponent's weapon will be deactivated. The dulling will be terminated at the end of the tournament. The only rule is to win by whatever means necessary. Full members will be viewing the fight, and will also have dulled weapons, but they will not be able to mark the combatants."
Racieus listened, the excitement inside of him continuing to build as Lieran spoke, until a thought intruded on his anticipation: He didn't have a weapon. Getting his money back from Taryn seemed more imperative than ever. The halfling had finished his breakfast, and as he moved to return the plate to the same window that he had taken it from, he kept an eye out for the young thief and his group of doppelgangers, though he needn't have. As the guild master finished his explanation of the tournament rules and began to dismiss the crowd, he called out,
"-And I would like Racieus and Taryn to meet me in the training hall."
The halfling's head snapped up at this, staring at Lieran in surprise. He hadn't expect the assassin to seriously consider, much less grant, his request for a go at Taryn, and, much to his surprise, Racieus found that he was actually dreading the encounter.
He wanted, no mistake there, but he knew he had no chance of winning. Sure, he had taken a large, slow man by surprise, and had gotten lucky at that, but for all his grasp of moving in the dark, he still had little formal combat training, and his agility, though Lieran had taught him a few things, was nothing compared to someone who had been receiving similar instruction for much longer.
The arena began to clear, and Racieus pushed his negativity aside, determining that he would fight anyway, and give it his best shot, regardless of the odds. He had to ask one of the residents of the home where the training hall was located, and followed the stranger's directions to the second floor, to the room directly above the large area he had just left as a matter of fact, and it made sense. All three floors were more or less identical; a large room in the center, with dormitories lining the opposite walls. The bottom floor held the auditorium, the second floor held the training area, and Racieus assumed the third floor held a similarly shaped room, but the function of the room had not been revealed to him yet.
He entered the training room to find Lieran and Taryn already waiting. Taryn's eyes narrowed when the halfling walked in, the recognition in them unmistakable. Lieran too picked up on it and wasted no time in initiating the conversation.
"Well apparently you remember Racieus here Taryn, and you may have already guessed at why I called you here." The young thief said nothing, but the scowl on his face spoke for him. "I'm going to need you to retrieve the money that you lifted from his person yesterday. Those were startup funds that he will require if he is going to join this guild."
With a sigh Taryn dug into his pocket and pulled out a handful of coins, thrusting them towards Racieus with a look of disgust on his face. The halfling accepted politely, glad that Lieran wasn't going to pit them against each other, but slightly embarrassed at the method the guild master had chosen instead. Not only did he appear to have made an enemy, but that enemy thought he was weak. Taryn turned sharply on his heel and started to walk away, but Lieran, having counted the coins in Racieus' hand, stopped him.
"Taryn, I gave him the coins, in case you'd like to reconsider."
The boy stopped, fists clenching, and shoulders taut with anger. When he turned to hand over the rest of the coins, a gold and a silver, Racieus could see tears of frustration in his eyes. He recalled the boy mentioning a fund. He still didn't know what the fund was, but it clearly meant a lot to the thief. Had he stayed a few seconds longer, Racieus probably would have caved and offered one of the gold pieces back, but after he relinquished all the coins, he turned once more, and fled from the room.
