Bully P.O.V.Mature
My name is Roxxy. Yes it's spelled with two x's. I was adopted when I was six years old by two competitive business people. They faught a lot, but I never cared because by the end of it the mother would always come raging to me and I would make her feel better and then father would cry and leave to his workplace to get everything off his mind. After a few years of my adoption, they ended up barely being home and I became less of their child. I was more of a pet they couldn't get rid of. I learned to take care of myself and how to defend myself pretty quickly. My parents were loaded due to their jobs. My mother is the only one who comes home and that's rarely. Even though, she makes me make
her happy I still cling onto this dream I had when I was giving up on everything. I knew that the girl in it was my soul mate and I became determined to find her. I wouldn't give myself to anyone but her, and I would protect her with my life even if it meant hurting her just a little. A few days later I found her. She was my neighbor and we were the same age, same school, same everything. I protected her, but without her knowing. I didn't have the courage to go up to her and speak to her. I was too dirty and tainted while she was innocent and clean. I found ways to get to know her too. Well, they might have been illegal, but I was never caught. In middle school it became tougher. So many guys were going after her! So I broke them in and made sure they would never forget that she's mine. Then high school: the guys were out of control and I couldn't fight alone anymore. So I created a nice little trio to help me and eventually we spread to fighting all the guys. We were the saviors of the school and I got special access to everything for it! I was able to watch over my princess all I wanted with no problems, but eventually I got power crazy. After the gender split mellowed out and everyone became friends, my access was taken from me. I have to protect my princess no matter the cost! So my trio and I became the top bullies. We regained access and when the school took away the clubs and security, we gained freedom as well. Now it's almost the end of our junior year and one of my girls heard some asshole say that him and his friends are going to kidnap my princess and gang rape her!
I decided that I was tired of all the shit I have to go through to protect her and sadly, I couldn't protect her from those guys. Their leader has a rich dad who would get him out of anything. He knew that my princess is a virgin and that I wanted her. I have to do something before it's too late! So I devised a plan. If she cooperates then everything will go fine and we will end up in a beautiful relationship. If not then she will hate me for eternity. I think the odds are fair. The first part of my plan took action at the last period. I got the teacher to let my trio and I leave class early so we went to the girls bathroom and hung out until the bell rang. I have everything ready and all I need left is her. I told my girls to go get her for me when she passes by and to make sure nobody sees her. I waited eagerly for them to return. I kept moving around to different spots in the bathroom constantly changing my position every second. This one looks too intimidating, this one doesn't seem like me, this one is stupid, they're all stupid! I heard more than the usual four footsteps from the entrance and quickly settled with the "leaning against the wall like a cool kid" position in the back of the bathroom and when I saw her I felt the world go slow.
Her form was exactly like a princess's from the movies and her eyes were beautifully big and brown, filled with life. Her movements were elegant just like a pri-she stomped on the ground in front of her stopping her fall and I couldn't help, but laugh. I couldn't show a different character because she might get creeped out, so my laugh came out as a wicked giggling. She straightened her posture and began to blush. Even though, nobody could see her blush, even her, I could always tell. Even the slightest blush was clear as day to me. She must be uncomfortable with all the eyes staring at her. I ordered my girls to go guard the doorway to the bathroom in case the guys saw her and decided to come in. My girls were big into exercising and weightlifting, but not like the guys are. They're into it just for protection and healthier bodies. So now I'm alone with my soul mate who has never know my feelings for her or that I ever existed until high school. My palms are starting to sweat and I'm getting itchy feet. I need to move, but I can't show that i'm nervous. It might ruin the mood. So I started sauceing around her and I couldn't help, but look at her body. It was beautiful and I bet her hands would fit mine like puzzle pieces. I saw a shiver race through her body. Alright, I'm running out of time. I need to make this happen and fast.
"Hey there you."
It came out very flirtatiously. So I guess I'm going the flirty route. Maybe she will get my signals and we'll hit it off!
" H-hey.."
Awww! When she stutters she is so adorable! It makes me want to cuddle with her! I shouldn't say anything though. It will definitely ruin the mood. Think sexy thoughts, sexy thoughts. Cuddling..naked. I let my mind wonder from there and thankfully it worked. Before I knew it I grew this air of hormones around me.
" So, do you have a boyfriend?"
I gotta play it cool and pretend I don't know anything about her. Hopefully, she will pick up what I'm trying to do. I always forget how stubborn she can be when she's clueless.
" N-no."
She stuttered again! I'm basically fangirling in my mind every time she stutters or even speaks! She's speaking to me! Me directly! I take step closer to her. Maybe if I get closer it will become more obvious.
" What's your sexual preference?"
I already know this.
"I prefer girls only."
I take another step closer to her. One more step to go and if she doesn't get the message hopefully she will at the last step.
" Have you ever dated before?"
Of course you haven't. You're mine.
I take my last step and now we are nose to nose. I could feel her frail body pressed against mine. Being this close to her was intoxicating me. She was my kryptonite and soon all my powers will be completely drained. I saw her body stiffen and a deep blush rise on her cheeks. I think that's a sign that she's understanding. I stare straight into her eyes eager to hear her stutter once more.
" Are you a virgin then?"
That is the most retarded question! Of course she's a virgin if she has never dated anyone! I fucked up already! Maybe if I play it cool she won't notice and I can move on like it didn't happen. I heard her gulp before she answered yes. I think that's a signal for something. Maybe that she has been getting my signals and feels the same way? Maybe if I...just...my mind became fuzzy almost blacking out. I couldn't control my body anymore. I grabbed her head firmly, enough to hold it still, and kissed her. It took me a moment to realize what I was doing and when I came back into control I didn't want to stop. Her lips were so pillowy and soft. Just like a princess's. I could feel a surge of lust spreading throughout my body like a mutating virus. I can't let anyone take her from me. I felt her arm move and grabbed it. This is how it goes in those romance mangas she reads, right? I was running out of breath and I could tell she was too. I slowly pulled away, almost lingering. I could hear and feel my heart racing in my ears! I felt so happy! I got to kiss my princess! Her first kiss was with me! I quickly realized that she was about to make a run for it. I grabbed her at the waist and pulled her in. She was about to scream so I covered up her mouth. Well now I look like a molester or rapist. I studied for weeks on romance and flirting and dating and I still did it wrong! Now, I'm forced to go to plan B. Before I thought of which steps should go first, I began stripping in front of her. Nothing like stripping in front of your lifetime crush to show how comfortable with your body you are. I called for my girls to come back in and help me. I had them hold her and bring her into the biggest stall. Since there is no longer security at this school I was able to get a hook and drill it into the wall high above the toilet seat in there. Of course for her comfort, I lined the toilet with soft towels.
I couldn't risk seeing her face while I'm tying her up, so I made of my girls force her to look down. I have to do this to protect you. Even if you hate me for eternity, I'll always love you and protect you, no matter the cost. I tied her wrists together tightly. I haven't done this before so hopefully they aren't too tight. I can't risk having them loose. I tied her ankles together just above them. I left space in between the wrists to tie them onto the hook. I did the same for the ankles, but that's so I can put her legs on my shoulders to prevent her from kicking me. I signaled for my girls to go back to their posts and locked the stall door. Complete privacy. I'm sorry it's not an elegant bedroom outlined with candles and dressed with silk, but I can't risk having you kidnapped while bringing you to my home. He may be a dumbfuck, but he's clever. I chose the perfect day to do this. She rarely wears anything like that. In her view it's probably scandalous. I silently took a deep breath and walked up to her. I went down to my knees and took the chance. I delicately felt her body with my own hands. Every curve and crevice. Suddenly, it was like everything I knew about her left me. I was awestruck by the beauty and purity of a princess. Suddenly a burst of noise came from her and almost made me jump.
" A-are you going to rape me?!"
I snapped to my senses and bursted out laughing. I couldn't help it! It was so cute and funny to me! I quickly corrected myself and decided that since she now sees me as a rapist I have to act like one. I tried my best to come up with some dialogue that would go with the character, but instead I pulled off her skirt that decided to drag her panties with it. I almost froze in shock that a princess would wear such scandalous underwear! I mean it wasn't strings, but it was still scandalous. I tossed them to the other stall so I wouldn't realise what I'm doing when it's too late.
" You should stop acting so innocent. I know who you are and I know what you want. "
Are you kidding me?! That's what I could come up with?! I'm too retarded for this shit. I could see the confusion in her eyes. I'm sorry princess. Your princess charming is a grade A fuck up. She gave me a deeply confused expression and I felt deep understanding of it. I pulled up her tank top and bra and realised that I should have taken it off before I tied her up. Damn it. I got up again and found my pocket knife. Sorry to ruin your cute bra and tank top. I'll get you a new one to repay you later. I cut the straps of the bra and tank and tossed it with the skirt and panties.
" Hey! That's my favorite! Please just stop! I'll give you anything you want other than this!"
Shit, that was her favorite. I will definitely replace that then. There's nothing I want other than you entirely. I can't tell her that though, it's too late. I have to hurry up and start this before it gets dark. I silently took another deep breath and went for it. I grabbed her breasts and almost fainted. They're so perfectly small and squishy like little dough balls! She's so perfect! I started playing with her nipples as well, but found it hard to. She has flat nipples unlike most females I've had experiences with. So basically it was harder to tell if she was aroused. I have to think of more dialogue to help progress the character.
" I don't want anything from you, but whether you like It or not you are my new sex toy."
That's better than the one before at least. My lust was beginning to take over and I couldn't help, but to mark her as mine. I trailed bite marks all over her body. It didn't take much to leave a mark. She was so sensitive. Every bite I made she jumped and made the cutest squeak! Hours passed by and I went way over my head. I had to take everything so nothing was left for that dumb bloodhound to find and sadly virginity is the blood. Eventually she began screaming and fighting back. I held her still and shoved my panties in her mouth. Not glamorous or sexy, but I can't get caught. I have to do this I'm sorry. My heart was cracking from pressure of keeping up the facade. In the middle of it, she stopped fighting and screaming and succumbed to it. My heart crumbled to dust and I was beginning to break. I tried my hardest to push back my tears. I'm not her savior anymore, I'm the dragon, but I will still protect her. I have to keep her away from him. He's a jock right, and his friends are basically the entire team. She doesn't go to games anyways. I gotta say something to make her avoid them. I ended up threatening her that if she told anyone our secret, I would get him and his friends to gang rape her in front of the entire school. I couldn't think of anything original, but hopefully that will do. I don't think she could see me crying or even hear my soft whimpers of pain over her cloudy eyes and clogged up hearing from the pain. She was blacking out and ready to climax at the same time. I knew she couldn't hear me so there was no chance of going back. As her body climaxed, words slipped through my lips at hearable volume.
"They can't have you!"
After her climax she blacked out. I slowly backed away from her body in disgust with myself. As the blood from her hymen dripped from her crevice down into the toilet. I slowly left the stall to wash my hands of the blood and took a while to clean everything up. I clothed her with her skirt and panties. I put my hoodie on her and shoved her broken clothes into my backpack with the rope and pocket knife. I got dressed and carried her as a bride out of the bathroom. When I met up with my girls I thanked them and told them good night. As we parted ways, I decided to take her home with me. Thankfully the dumbass left after seeing me leaving the school with my princess. Now he knows she's mine. I decided to take her home with me and care for her for the night. When I got home, I bathed her and dressed her in my pajamas. They were a perfect fit. I put her to bed and got myself ready for bed. I laid next to her and positioned her, just like in the dream of her that I had. I was so exhausted that I forgot I was running on adrenaline and once it ran out I passed out.

THE UNFINISHED LIFE OF ADDISON STONE is a novel about a troubled, brilliant young New York artist, now deceased. I told it as an oral history, fully illustrated with full-page art, plus photos, magazine and newspaper clippings, sketches, and candid snaps of Addison's life. When I am actually writing, I can't listen to music with lyrics because they get too deep in my head. But a lot of writing is not-writing, and I like listening to music when I think through a book-- maybe while I'm walking my dog or on yet another coffee run.
At some point in revisions I heard the song Chandelier by Sia, which is one of those uncanny book-meets-playlist moments. Anyone who reads it will know. People are starting to send it to me so I want to give it a nod.
Addison was a gorgeous It girl, but she was also dark and complicated. I moved between voices I enjoyed, usually female, like Ellie Goulding or Florence and the Machine—whose voice is so Addison-y themed. I especially loved dreamy haunted Heavy in Your Arms.
Sometimes I listened to this strange song by Daniel Johnston, who is a big force of inspiration for me. Johnston is a songwriter and an artist. The recording of The Story of an Artist has been covered by M. Ward to sound really beautiful here:
but I love it most this way:
the weight of his lyrics: we don't really like what you do / we don't think anyone ever will/we think you have a problem / and this problem's made you ill is so different when sung by Johnston himself, with all of his pain in them. Johnston's fragile mental health is well-documented in the film: THE DEVIL AND DANIEL JOHNSTON, and I can feel the echo of that movie's impact in Addison's own character. The book released on August 12 and is in stores everywhere. Soho Press will have lots of "mini-documentary" footage coming soon. Keep up with everything Addison and find more clues at www.iamaddisonstone.com. Hope you enjoy!
Big thank you to Adele Griffin for sharing a few songs of inspiration and a look behind the scenes at her process. I insist everyone go to their local bookshop and pick up a copy of this book and see how gorgeous it is. You won't want to put it down!

text: SAN MATEO, Calif., March 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced a webinar titled "Why It's Time to Switch from Microsoft Dynamics GP to Cloud ERP" to showcase the challenges that organizations face with Microsoft's on-premise ERP system and the benefits that hundreds of companies have realized by upgrading from antiquated on-premise software to NetSuite's superior cloud business management solution for financials / ERP, CRM and omnichannel commerce. The webinar, scheduled for Wednesday, March 19 at 10 a.m. PT, will feature NetSuite product experts outlining the key differentiators between NetSuite's integrated cloud suite and Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) and the gains in efficiency, visibility, scalability and business growth that customers have realized after making the switch to NetSuite. They will be joined by Kevin Harding, IT Director at Imagine!, who will share how his not-for-profit organization has reduced costs, gained real-time data access, dramatically accelerated its financial reporting and avoided the additional personnel required to maintain hardware and software systems since moving from Microsoft Dynamics GP to NetSuite. To learn more about the webinar and to register, please click here. Customers of Microsoft Dynamics GP confront the challenge of operating a pre-Internet solution built based on antiquated client-server architecture, meaning the software can't capitalize on the economies of scale of the cloud. The "version lock" of on-premise software leaves customers waiting for infrequent product updates that require re-testing of all customizations and hardware upgrades, whereas NetSuite issues two major upgrades per year and configurations and customizations carry forward automatically with no need for hardware.

As millions of new patients enter the American medical system a shortage of quality primary care providers looms. Physician Assistants/Associates (PAs) are well educated, well trained and highly capable primary and specialty care providers. Neither major medical organizations nor the lay population fully comprehend the potential impact of this profession on the future of American Healthcare. Despite over a half century of providing quality medical care, it is rare for these professionals to be allowed to practice as the full scope of their training and licensure.

I would imagine that a great many people recalling Damilola will remember the photograph which I've since seen countless times on television and in newspapers. The photo was taken about a week before he was murdered. A happy, smiling boy in mauve uniform who most people never knew. Just another victim.
This is not how I wish to remember him. Nor do I want my memories of the last time I was in his presence to be the prominent ones - the horrific experience of sitting in a fresh, sunlit church as his small, white coffin was carried to the altar by pallbearers amid harrowing scenes.
There are many happier things to remember about Damilola. He arrived at Oliver Goldsmith Primary School in September 2000 and smoothly integrated himself into a class of children of diverse backgrounds from mainly immigrant families. It occurred to me quickly that, although behind in several curriculum areas, he epitomised so many immigrant children with his strong work ethic and enthusiasm.
His academic promise was borne out by the fact that he had made large inroads into the task of catching up, particularly at science and maths. He was eager to adapt to changes around him and took up a healthy interest in computers. He'd often tear through maths tasks to gain the chance of accessing the Children's Encyclopaedia during the free time that followed.
He showed talent in a range of other areas, notably at art. I recall one superb sketch of horses, another of surgeons at work on an operating table, both drawn in his unusual, craggy style - Damilola took huge offence at the suggestion of another, not so skilled in the field, that they were tracings. It was only later I learned the connection between the latter drawing and his own personal desire, spurred by his sister's epilepsy, to become involved in medicine.
He was a very talented sports player. He'd often play basketball in school with children one or two years his junior at lunchtime. Comments made by children after his death made clear just how many younger children liked and looked up to him.
Damilola was one of the most talented and agile goalkeepers I'd seen in six years working in south London schools. He excelled in the position and won man of the match awards in the school football league. The Thursday before he died he produced an astonishing display in repelling what must have been two dozen or so shots on target to deny the league leaders victory. The match was on concrete, and Damilola threw himself left and right, full stretch, to great acclaim from onlookers.
My fondest memory of him at sport was during a game of rounders, just after he arrived from Nigeria. I don't think he'd quite picked up on the fact that in running the bases, you only had to run through them, not too far around them. He hit a mighty drive away down the ground, set off and ran the entire outer perimeter - about twice the necessary distance - with great booming strides and still got in for a home run, arms outstretched. Everyone around was engulfed in laughter, celebration and uproar at the sight of it all.
A keen sense of humour came easily to him. He had quite a few people hanging on the story that his mother knew a lady who, apart from being a close acquaintance of the Queen, had won £1 million on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Damilola told them that on the basis of this association, he would be receiving a large amount of money.
He was a terrific practical joker with a fine talent for hoodwinking. Once, Damilola had made it clear to a friend he'd give him £5 if he agreed to meet him at the nearby garage after school. The friend later admitted to having waited more than half an hour before realising he'd been fooled. Damilola played this prank on many children; it was his favourite. Better still is a story that many of his classmates recalled with affection. Damilola had told a number of children he'd brought in a Gameboy to swap at school, the problem being he had hidden it in one of the flowerbeds in school and couldn't find it. This resulted in all of them, including Damilola, digging around the flowerbeds for a week in a desperate attempt to find it. The Gameboy, of course, never existed and the only reason Damilola involved himself in the digging was to keep them all searching.
Like all boys, he occasionally became involved in arguments when standing up to others but retained a keen sense of justice and maturity in accepting mediation and moving on.
He had done very well to adjust to new and strange circumstances of a big school in a new country. However, while he was able to integrate himself well in school he would ultimately fall prey to those born and bred into an area of social and economic deprivation and disillusionment. He was eager to make friends anywhere, but as his aunt later told me, he was far too innocent and happy. He was unable to distinguish the right from wrong crowd when in trouble.
Our hearts go out to his parents. His killing shattered everyone close to him at our school - friends, schoolmates of a variety of ages, teachers and helpers. Paradoxically, the trauma and fallout from his killing has meant that many of the children who knew him well have since evolved into stronger and more rounded characters. But they will not forget as the years pass, that a boy of 10 was left behind.Reuse content

Green Eyed B****Mature
I heard footsteps coming up the hundreds of stairs, arghh, my head, way way waay too much to drink. I opened my eyes.
"ARGHH!" Nope, they shall just have to remain shut. The footsteps continued, shut uuuup. Banging on the door. For fu-
"JOSH! I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!" -heyy, i know that voice. The door opened,
"Heyy, Phoebe, Josh isn't exactly in-" Wynter had opened it. I knew it! It was her, coming in search of her Romeo,
"Where's Josh?", Straight to the point, I liked that in a girl...
"Urmm he's really not-"
"Phoebe! Hey! What are you doin-" I scrambled out of the ready-made bed on the couch, grabbing a pair of jeans of the floor, I didn't bother with a top- Pheebs deserved to get a good look at what she'd soon be getting...
"Lexi! What are you doin-"
"PHEEEBS! Babe! You came in search of me!" I grinned, she just couldn't resist... Four heads snapped towards me, wait four? Who was that guy?
" -And. Who. The. Fuck. Are. You?" I said, pronouncing each word very clearly- he looked a little bit, simple.
"Hey, urmm I'm Evan." Yup, very simple.
"I don't give a shit what your name is, who the hell are you?"
"Urmm, I'm Evan. I am- me?" Jeeesus, this was gonna be tough.
"Yeah, I got that mate. What the hell are you doing here?"
"He's with me Josh." Pheebs stepped infront of him, those green eyes piercing straight through me; she was, with someone else? That green eyed bitch...
"He's with-" I repeated, my head was still spinning from the alcohol. I couldn't see straight, and this reaally wasn't helping matters.
"Look, Evan said he saw you and Lexi together," -Wait, what? Me and Chameleon girl? I don't remember that, I really must have had too much to drink...
"What?" Yelled Wynter, " I knew it! I fucking knew it!" he stormed out, Chameleon girl running after him, tears rolling down her face...
"Wait Wynter! Wait, he got it wrong! Don't you remember-" The apartment door slammed shut. My head was pounding. It was just me, Pheebs, and this Evan prick.
"Hey, look I got it wrong-" I right hooked him before he could finish, he fell to the floor, spitting out blood. I smirked, a he looked up at me his face contorted with anger. Awwh crap. I flew across the room, and when I say flew I literally mean flew across-
"JOSH!" And then the weirdest freakin' thing in the world happened, I hit a mattress, and Evan and Pheebs were holding the side of it... "I'm really gonna have to find some sort of portable thing, all these mattresses-"
"What the fuck- I mean WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED!?"

I sat down on the window sill feeling cold.
"I don't get it, I don't get it at all" I whispered through the glass to the rest of the world.
After a while I decided to do the washing up from last night. Dirty, spaghetti Bolognese source clung determinedly on the white china dishes.
"Come on!" I cried hitting the plate on the side in anger, it shattered into tiny pieces.
"AH!" I screamed jumping out of the way just in time before the tiny bits fell on the floor. Another job to do. Wow, parents do, do hard work. I can now understand why parents mutter behind out backs, thinking that no one's listening but they are.
After I had finished with all the chores you could possibly think of in the house, I sat ouside on the wall, watching the sky with the clouds drifting by, like nothing unusual was going on at all.
Suddenly without thinking to much about it, I knew that I would have to go at some point with the spirits, I mean come on I couldn't live my life working away, doing nothing for the rest of my child hood, I mean I'm only 14, I wouldn't be able to handle it.
I stood up, and marched over to the house, It was funny I kind of knew what I was doing, somehow.
I ran into my bedroom, and closed the door. Breathing deeply and cried,
"Come out Spirits, come, I must come to the world of Spirits"

Asia House, Manchester
Asia House at No. 82 Princess Street, Manchester, England, is an early 20th-century packing and shipping warehouse built between 1906 and 1909 in an Edwardian Baroque style. It is a Grade II* listed building as at 3 October 1974.[1] Nikolaus Pevsner's The Buildings of England describes the warehouse, and its companion, No. 86, Manchester House, as "quite splendid ... good examples of the warehouse type designed for multiple occupation by shipping merchants".[2] It attributes its design to I.R.E. Birkett, architect of the Grade II listed companion building, Manchester House, which is similar in design. English Heritage attributes it to Harry S. Fairhurst.[1] Asia House has an "exceptionally rich" entrance hall and stairwell, "lined with veined marble and green and cream faience, with designs of trees and Art Nouveau stained glass".[3]
The warehouse was built for the Refuge Assurance Company and in 1910 was occupied by the Oxford Packing Company and 36 shipping merchants. Built on a trapezoidal plan, it has two linked blocks which are six storeys high plus an attic above a double basement. Its façade is pink-brown sandstone, brick and marble while the side elevations, where the service and workers entrances were located, are in glazed white brick and the rear common brick. The warehouse loading bays are between the blocks and were linked to the packing rooms in the basement by shafts.[4]
Many warehouses were built to a common design, often with steps to a raised ground floor with showroom and offices and the first floor contained more offices and waiting rooms for clients and sample and pattern rooms all decorated to impress customers. The working areas above were plain with large windows to allow in natural light. Orders were packed there and sent to the basement on hoists powered by Manchester's hydraulic power system and packed into bales using hydraulic presses before dispatch. The warehouse was lighted by gas.[4]
Asia House was converted for residential use in 2003 and the basement is a car park.[4] Mike Mckenna, University_Challenge 2011–12 winner lives here [5]and Noel Gallagher, singer songwriter with Oasis, is a former occupant.[6]

DeJesus, Six Others Named Charter Members Of Taylor Hooten Foundation Advisory Board
MCKINNEY, TX (via Tampa Bay Rays Communications) — The Taylor Hooton Foundation, widely acknowledged as the leader in the advocacy against appearance and performance enhancing drug use by the youth of America, today announced the formation of an "Advisory Board" made up exclusively of active players from throughout Major League Baseball.
Charter members of the "Advisory Board" are David DeJesus (Tampa Bay Rays), Jay Bruce (Cincinnati Reds), Dillon Gee (New York Mets), Clayton Kershaw (Los Angeles Dodgers), Max Scherzer (Detroit Tigers), C.J. Wilson (Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim) and Brad Ziegler (Arizona Diamondbacks).
Additional members of the "Advisory Board" will be announced throughout the 2014 season.
"Words cannot describe my emotions as we partner with these incredible athletes and role models," said Taylor Hooton Foundation president Don Hooton. "These young men have stepped up to make a difference with America's youth by becoming visible role models, examples of outstanding athletes who work hard and compete fairly. Their participation in our initiatives will be invaluable."
As members of the "Advisory Board," the players will participate in the THF's educational activities in their local communities, record radio public-service announcements and provide their input on the most-effective ways to educate North America's young people about the dangers of anabolic steroids and other appearance and performance enhancing drugs.
In 2013, the Taylor Hooton Foundation spoke to and educated more than 150,000 people. It also began a Latin American outreach and traveled throughout the Caribbean, speaking to thousands of RBI athletes, coaches and parents in partnership with Major League Baseball. This year the THF will introduce a new eLearning program – narrated by Bob Costas – to Little League Baseball that will be offered to its one-million adult coaches and other volunteers.
About The Taylor Hooton Foundation: The Taylor Hooton Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit organization that is dedicated to educating North America's young people about the dangers of anabolic steroids and other appearance and performance enhancing drugs. The friends and family of Taylor Hooton formed the Foundation in 2004 after his untimely death at 17 years old following his use of anabolic steroids.

Adjusting case mix payment amounts for inaccurately reported comorbidity data

Case mix methods such as diagnosis related groups have become a basis of payment for inpatient hospitalizations in many countries. Specifying cost weight values for case mix system payment has important consequences; recent evidence suggests case mix cost weight inaccuracies influence the supply of some hospital-based services. To begin to address the question of case mix cost weight accuracy, this paper is motivated by the objective of improving the accuracy of cost weight values due to inaccurate or incomplete comorbidity data. The methods are suitable to case mix methods that incorporate disease severity or comorbidity adjustments. The methods are based on the availability of detailed clinical and cost information linked at the patient level and leverage recent results from clinical data audits. A Bayesian framework is used to synthesize clinical data audit information regarding misclassification probabilities into cost weight value calculations. The models are implemented through Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. An example used to demonstrate the methods finds that inaccurate comorbidity data affects cost weight values by biasing cost weight values (and payments) downward. The implications for hospital payments are discussed and the generalizability of the approach is explored.

Adverse reactions have been very common in virtually all series of patients treated with Cordarone for ventricular arrhythmias with relatively large doses of drug (400 mg/day and above), occurring in about three-fourths of all patients and causing discontinuation in 7 to 18%. The most serious reactions are pulmonary toxicity, exacerbation of arrhythmia, and rare serious liver injury (see WARNINGS), but other adverse effects constitute important problems. They are often reversible with dose reduction or cessation of Cordarone treatment. Most of the adverse effects appear to become more frequent with continued treatment beyond six months, although rates appear to remain relatively constant beyond one year. The time and dose relationships of adverse effects are under continued study.
Neurologic problems are extremely common, occurring in 20 to 40% of patients and including malaise and fatigue, tremor and involuntary movements, poor coordination and gait, and peripheral neuropathy; they are rarely a reason to stop therapy and may respond to dose reductions or discontinuation (see PRECAUTIONS). There have been spontaneous reports of demyelinating polyneuropathy.
Gastrointestinal complaints, most commonly nausea, vomiting, constipation, and anorexia, occur in about 25% of patients but rarely require discontinuation of drug. These commonly occur during high-dose administration (i.e., loading dose) and usually respond to dose reduction or divided doses.
Ophthalmic abnormalities including optic neuropathy and/or optic neuritis, in some cases progressing to permanent blindness, papilledema, corneal degeneration, photosensitivity, eye discomfort, scotoma, lens opacities, and macular degeneration have been reported. (See WARNINGS.)
Asymptomatic corneal microdeposits are present in virtually all adult patients who have been on drug for more than 6 months. Some patients develop eye symptoms of halos, photophobia, and dry eyes. Vision is rarely affected and drug discontinuation is rarely needed.
Dermatological adverse reactions occur in about 15% of patients, with photosensitivity being most common (about 10%). Sunscreen and protection from sun exposure may be helpful, and drug discontinuation is not usually necessary. Prolonged exposure to Cordarone occasionally results in a blue-gray pigmentation. This is slowly and occasionally incompletely reversible on discontinuation of drug but is of cosmetic importance only.
Cardiovascular adverse reactions, other than exacerbation of the arrhythmias, include the uncommon occurrence of congestive heart failure (3%) and bradycardia. Bradycardia usually responds to dosage reduction but may require a pacemaker for control. CHF rarely requires drug discontinuation. Cardiac conduction abnormalities occur infrequently and are reversible on discontinuation of drug.
The following side-effect rates are based on a retrospective study of 241 patients treated for 2 to 1,515 days (mean 441.3 days).
The following side effects were each reported in 10 to 33% of patients:
Gastrointestinal: Nausea and vomiting.
The following side effects were each reported in 4 to 9% of patients:
Dermatologic: Solar dermatitis/photosensitivity.
Neurologic: Malaise and fatigue, tremor/abnormal involuntary movements, lack of coordination, abnormal gait/ataxia, dizziness, paresthesias.
Gastrointestinal: Constipation, anorexia.
Ophthalmologic: Visual disturbances.
Hepatic: Abnormal liver-function tests.
Respiratory: Pulmonary inflammation or fibrosis.
The following side effects were each reported in 1 to 3% of patients:
Thyroid: Hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism.
Neurologic: Decreased libido, insomnia, headache, sleep disturbances.
Cardiovascular: Congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, SA node dysfunction.
Gastrointestinal: Abdominal pain.
Hepatic: Nonspecific hepatic disorders.
Other: Flushing, abnormal taste and smell, edema, abnormal salivation, coagulation abnormalities.
The following side effects were each reported in less than 1% of patients:
Blue skin discoloration, rash, spontaneous ecchymosis, alopecia, hypotension, and cardiac conduction abnormalities.
In surveys of almost 5,000 patients treated in open U.S. studies and in published reports of treatment with Cordarone, the adverse reactions most frequently requiring discontinuation of Cordarone included pulmonary infiltrates or fibrosis, paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia, congestive heart failure, and elevation of liver enzymes. Other symptoms causing discontinuations less often included visual disturbances, solar dermatitis, blue skin discoloration, hyperthyroidism, and hypothyroidism.
Postmarketing Reports
In postmarketing surveillance, serious symptomatic bradycardia has been reported in patients taking amiodarone who initiate treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir or with sofosbuvir with simeprevir, hypotension (sometimes fatal), sinus arrest, anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reaction (including shock), angioedema, urticaria, eosinophilic pneumonia, hepatitis, cholestatic hepatitis, cirrhosis, pancreatitis, acute pancreatitis, renal impairment, renal insufficiency, acute renal failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome in the post-operative setting, bronchospasm, possibly fatal respiratory disorders (including distress, failure, arrest, and ARDS), bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (possibly fatal), fever, dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis, wheezing, hypoxia, pulmonary infiltrates and/or mass, pulmonary alveolar hemorrhage, pleural effusion, pleuritis, pseudotumor cerebri, parkinsonian symptoms such as akinesia and bradykinesia (sometimes reversible with discontinuation of therapy), syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH), thyroid nodules/thyroid cancer, toxic epidermal necrolysis (sometimes fatal), erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, exfoliative dermatitis, bullous dermatitis, drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), eczema, skin cancer, vasculitis, pruritus, hemolytic anemia, aplastic anemia, pancytopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis, granuloma, myopathy, muscle weakness, rhabdomyolysis, demyelinating polyneuropathy, hallucination, confusional state, disorientation, delirium, epididymitis, impotence, dry mouth, and lupus-like syndrome, also have been reported with amiodarone therapy.
Read the Cordarone (amiodarone hcl tablets) Side Effects Center for a complete guide to possible side effects
In view of the long and variable half-life of amiodarone, potential for drug interactions exists, not only with concomitant medication, but also with drugs administered after discontinuation of amiodarone.
Pharmacodynamic interactions
Drugs Inducing TdP Or Prolonging QT
Co-administration of amiodarone with drugs known to prolong the QT interval (such as class I and III antiarrhythmics, lithium, certain phenothiazines, tricyclic antidepressants, certain fluoroquinolone and macrolide antibiotics, IV pentamidine, and azole antifungals) increases the risk of Torsades de Points. Avoid concomitant use of drugs that prolong the QT interval.
Drugs Lowering Heart Rate Or Causing Automaticity Or Conduction Disorders
Concomitant use of drugs with depressant effects on the sinus and AV node (e.g., digoxin, beta blockers, verapamil, diltiazem, clonidine) can potentiate the electrophysiologic and hemodynamic effects of amiodarone, resulting in bradycardia, sinus arrest, and AV block. Monitor heart rate in patients on amiodarone and concomitant drugs that slow heart rate.
Pharmacokinetic Interactions
Effects Of Other Medicinal Products On Amiodarone
Since amiodarone is a substrate for CYP3A and CYP2C8, drugs/substances that inhibit CYP3A (e.g., certain protease inhibitors, loratadine, cimetidine, trazodone) may decrease the metabolism and increase serum concentrations of amiodarone. Concomitant use of CYP3A inducers (rifampin, St. John's Wort), may lead to decreased serum concentrations and loss of efficacy. Consider serial measurement of amiodarone serum concentration during concomitant use of drugs affecting CYP3A activity.
Grapefruit juice given to healthy volunteers increased amiodarone AUC by 50% and Cmax by 84%, and decreased DEA to unquantifiable concentrations. Grapefruit juice inhibits CYP3Amediated metabolism of oral amiodarone in the intestinal mucosa, resulting in increased plasma levels of amiodarone; therefore, grapefruit juice should not be taken during treatment with oral amiodarone. This information should be considered when transitioning from intravenous to oral amiodarone. Cholestyramine reduces enterohepatic circulation of amiodarone thereby increasing its elimination. This results in reduced amiodarone serum levels and half-life.
Effects Of Amiodarone On Other Medicinal Products
Amiodarone inhibits P-glycoprotein and certain CYP450 enzymes, including CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A. This inhibition can result in unexpectedly high plasma levels of other drugs which are metabolized by those CYP450 enzymes or are substrates of Pglycoprotein. Reported examples of this interaction include the following:
Cyclosporine (CYP3A substrate) administered in combination with oral amiodarone has been reported to produce persistently elevated plasma concentrations of cyclosporine resulting in elevated creatinine, despite reduction in dose of cyclosporine. Monitor cyclosporine drug levels and renal function in patients taking both drugs.
HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors
The use of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors that are CYP3A substrates in combination with amiodarone has been associated with reports of myopathy/rhabdomyolysis. Limit the dose of simvastatin in patients on amiodarone to 20 mg daily. Limit the daily dose of lovastatin to 40 mg. Lower starting and maintenance doses of other CYP3A substrates (e.g., atorvastatin) may be required as amiodarone may increase the plasma concentration of these drugs.
In patients receiving digoxin therapy, administration of oral amiodarone results in an increase in the serum digoxin concentration. Amiodarone taken concomitantly with digoxin increases the serum digoxin concentration by 70% after one day. On initiation of oral amiodarone, the need for digitalis therapy should be reviewed and the dose reduced by approximately 50% or discontinued. If digitalis treatment is continued, serum levels should be closely monitored and patients observed for clinical evidence of toxicity.
The metabolism of quinidine, procainamide, flecainide can be inhibited by amiodarone. Amiodarone taken concomitantly with quinidine increases quinidine serum concentration by 33% after two days. Amiodarone taken concomitantly with procainamide for less than seven days increases plasma concentrations of procainamide and n-acetyl procainamide by 55% and 33%, respectively. In general, any added antiarrhythmic drug should be initiated at a lower than usual dose with careful monitoring.
Combination of amiodarone with other antiarrhythmic therapy should be reserved for patients with life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias who are incompletely responsive to a single agent or incompletely responsive to amiodarone. During transition to amiodarone the dose levels of previously administered agents should be reduced by 30 to 50% several days after the addition of amiodarone, when arrhythmia suppression should be beginning. The continued need for the other antiarrhythmic agent should be reviewed after the effects of amiodarone have been established, and discontinuation ordinarily should be attempted. If the treatment is continued, these patients should be particularly carefully monitored for adverse effects, especially conduction disturbances and exacerbation of tachyarrhythmias, as amiodarone is continued. In amiodarone-treated patients who require additional antiarrhythmic therapy, the initial dose of such agents should be approximately half of the usual recommended dose.
Metabolism of lidocaine (CYP3A substrate) can be inhibited by amiodarone resulting in increased lidocaine concentrations. Sinus bradycardia and seizure has been reported in patients receiving concomitant lidocaine and amiodarone.
Potentiation of warfarin-type (CYP2C9 and CYP3A substrate) anticoagulant response is almost always seen in patients receiving amiodarone and can result in serious or fatal bleeding. Since the concomitant administration of warfarin with amiodarone increases the prothrombin time by 100% after 3 to 4 days, the dose of the anticoagulant should be reduced by one-third to one-half, and prothrombin times should be monitored closely.
A potential interaction between clopidogrel and amiodarone resulting in ineffective inhibition of platelet aggregation has been reported.
Dabigatran etexilate when taken concomitantly with amiodarone may result in elevated serum concentration of dabigatran.
Fentanyl (CYP3A substrate) in combination with amiodarone may cause hypotension, bradycardia, and decreased cardiac output.
Increased steady-state levels of phenytoin during concomitant therapy with amiodarone have been reported. Monitor phenytoin levels in patients taking both drugs.
Dextromethorphan is a substrate for both CYP2D6 and CYP3A. Amiodarone inhibits CYP2D6 and CYP3A. Chronic (>2 weeks) amiodarone treatment impairs metabolism of dextromethorphan leading to increased serum concentration.

Agree on both. But I think Webb makes this team because he can not only back up Webb but play DB. The Ravens seem to like that.
BTW, has anyone seen a TE catch a ball yet tonight?

"Eagle Eye" a highflier among weekend offerings
By Carl DiOrio
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "Eagle Eye" has a clear shot at the perch atop the weekend boxoffice.
The DreamWorks/Paramount thriller starring Shia LaBeouf opens Friday with mere pretenders to the domestic throne as competition.
Rated PG-13, "Eagle Eye" -- which co-stars Michelle Monaghan ("The Bourne Supremacy") and was directed by D.J. Caruso ("Disturbia") -- is tracking best with younger males and second best with younger females. The film counts Steven Spielberg among its producers and boasts 85 Imax giant-screen playdates in addition to its roughly 3,500 engagements in traditional venues
"It's the first mainstream, tech-savvy movie that we've ever had in the fall," Imax Filmed Entertainment chief Greg Foster said. "We need to prove ourselves as a year-round enterprise, so it's a big step."
Imax venues helped pad the huge summer run for Warner Bros.' "The Dark Knight." The giant-screen exhibitor's next big release of a commercial Hollywood film comes in November, with Paramount's simultaneous launch of DreamWorks Animation's "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" in Imax and traditional theaters.
Prerelease tracking surveys suggest a bow of $25 million to $28 million for "Eagle Eye."
"From a competitive standpoint, you're coming into a pretty open market," Paramount vice chairman Rob Moore said. "You also have a star coming off of three hits."
That would be LaBeouf, who ran a 2007-08 trifecta with "Disturbia," "Transformers" and "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." Continued...

a short story of mistrust, justice, lust, love and heartbreak
your teeth are bared, a smile of mass destruction. lurid, lustful charisma pours from your tongue like holy water. it washes over those around you, bathing them in a feeling of being wanted, being chased, being the object of desire. silver threads spill from your crusty lips and whisper around the waists of innocence, stroke their soft and blushing cheeks and prise apart their virgin lips. you play them like a fiddle, the music of which strikes disgust in those outside your web of lying lust. your face slides through love, confidence and innocence as the situation demands.
but one day, you will meet her. her of fiery words and sparkling eyes, who dances on her tiptoes and can fly through the criss-crossing silver strings. her who spins circles around you, whose laughter is cruel and mellifluous, whose smile is posed and tantalising. her whose angry bite will destroy the web around you, whose temper can throw hatred and fear into hearts around her. her like an angry storm, a demon of beauty and anger, who will bring you to your justice and confront you your sins.
her who you love, and her who breaks you.
