roofing job okay so far?
Hi all,
We hired a roofer we felt good about, had good references, etc., who subbed the job -- he said they'd do a great job, etc. They're part way throught the job-- dimensional shingles on an old house in 70-ish degree weather -- and we're disappointed to see the shingles not laying flat. We don't know if it's a bad job at this point, or if we just need some hot days for the shingles to settle down-- there are pics at the following link if anyone would care to offer advice.
We have't paid anything on the job yet, and we're thinking we don't want to pay the full price until it looks good --hopefully the job is well done in terms of rain protection, not just cosmetics, but we don't have the expertise to tell.
Thanks for any info--
link to pics:
I have a few questions about the agreement you made..
Why did you hire a guy who hired a guy?...unless the roof was part of a larger job run by a general.
Did they offer to do a tearoff and re-roof, and you didn't want to pay extra?
Did you sign a contract with a detailed scope of work, and does the detail include tearing off old roof?
Are these contractors licensed?
we didn't realize, when we hired the guy, that he wouldn't be at the job site himself. We had a level of trust in him, so when he said he was having the work done by another guy he uses, we weren't too concerned.
I did speak with the original roofer this evening, & he said the shingles would lay down with a few warm days--I've been researching the internet & found this is true, so we may be fine. Roofers should warn their clients about this, it's a shock to see shingles looking like that!
The guy is a member of NARI (I believe that's correct, I think it's a roofing association), has a good record with Angie's List locally, & no problems with the Better Business Bureau. He also provided a recent address they roofed & it looked great. He looked good on ServiceMagic as well, who stated he carried up to date insurance. (I know we should have demanded proof, we'll get tougher about that).
We did sign a contract stating the work to be done--there's one layer of tab shingles on the roof, so shingling over that shouldn't be a problem, though there seems to be controversy on that. The current layer of shingles were in decent shape. One company that bid suggested a tear off, but they didn't have a good track record.
Since I've found out about shingles needing a day or two of hot weather to "lay down", I'm feeling better about all this. Time will tell, we've got some warmer weather coming.
I think it will be fine, too.
I'm not a roofer, though...lol
Reroofing over an existing roof will create a slightly more bumpy appearance if the pre-existing shingles were already beginning to curl, claw or buckle.
Some of the lifting observed in the center of the new shingles may be due to being butted too tightly together or also from following the nesting pattern from the previous roof. The original 3 tab shingles have slots every 12 " which can accomodate some minor horizontal variences of the rows. If the new architectural shingles were following a wavy row, that could possibly account for the center bridging I noted on several of the shingles.
Also, it just may need to warm up a little more for then to lay down flatter.
It really all comes down to; What did the contract specifications say thay would do.
Minor cosmetic irregularities are not a warrantable byproduct of the installation, but more significant aesthetic problems which could adversely affect the weather proofing of the entire roof system should be held to a different standard.
BTW, just today our company is starting a new roof tear-off on an exact twin to the roof in your photos, including the offset roof at the top where the sheet metal flashings and brick chimney are located.
That one is in Elgin, IL.
Also, NARI stand for National Association for the Remofeling Industry. Were you thinking of NRCA, the National Roofing Contractors Association instead? He could belong to NARI, as they have a specialized trade program available too.
thanks guys!
I believe it was NARI he belongs to--his company is listed as roofing & remodelling, but I don't believe he remodels any more. (getting older, which may explain why he didn't work on this roof & hired the other guys).
Ed, how are you handling the flat roof area? Our guys aren't dealing with it all (contract didn't specify anything about it)--& he said the flashing around the chimney & flues was fine, but the only leaking problem we have is the chimney wicking moisture down to the 2nd floor. Roofer thought the moisture was coming from rain entering the flues. We put a chimney cap on one flue, (& will do the other as well). The exposed chimney in the attic shows a lot of deterioration of the mortar--at 100 years, I wonder if the brick & mortar is sucking up the moisture rather than the flashing leaking.
In any case, we're thinking of using another local company, larger & very reputable, to address that flat area of roof.
The roof section at the top by the chimney is not actually flat in my situation. Maybe yours is, but I didn't notice that from the thumbnail photos.
We are using Grace Ice and Water shield and shingling the one on the home we are doing.
Old brick does wick substantial moisture. If the tuckponting is in good shape, then a water repellant coating should be applied to the exterior of the masonry surfaces. This is not a long term solution and will be necessary to re-apply every 5 years or so.
thanks Ed!
(re: the thumbnails-the pics in the link can be enlarged, you have to click on them twice or so.)
Ed- If the severely buckled/fishmouthed shingles remain open rather than lay down and seal, how does this affect weatherproofing?
Similiarly, how do 1" to 2" gaps at the rake edges caused by buckled shingles affect weatherproofing there?
Many Thanks.
What was the current roof put over? The roofing looks like it was put over wood shingles or curled asphalt shingles.
Shingle roofs are weather proof only due to the slope that they are installed on. The shingles will probably lay down more and unless you are in a heavy wind tunnel area, it is probably not a major concern.
You have no "Rake edges" on your home. That term describes a gable style home, yours is a "hip" style.
Ron6519, it was put on a pretty flat single layer of tab shingles. (I think they're tab, they're pretty old. A little curling & algae in the back of the house, but most of the pics aren't of the back.) I'm hoping that the new dimensional shingles were that wavy before they put them on--the shingles sat in the back yard for several weeks before they could get to this job, so they weren't laying flat in the bundle.
We have a couple of nearly 80 degree sunny days coming this week, so I think we're going to know more then. . .the roofer wanted payment in full on completion of the job, the decision we're wrestling with now is, to pay the full amount or pay partially until the shingles lay down to an acceptable level. . .
Where are you located? I understand the IRC code says "no overlays". I had to correct the last building official on this last week. They had a pamphlet for their roofing projects in their area and it showed an overlay.
It is possible this is a MN thing though. I may have to correct myself after I find out the specifics.
I am just curious, how many other sites did you post this question on and where do you feel you recieved the most correct answers from. I would like to add those to my favorites to visit on occasion too.
Plus, you did not mention in your post here on this site, that they did tear out some but not all of the ridges and valleys.

Subject: is this a bad roofing job in progess?
We hired a roofer to put our roof on (dimensional shingles over one layer on an older home), and to our dismay the result so far looks, well, not too good. Is this a bad job in progess, or will it take warmer weather & sun for the shingles to lay flat? They started out not tearing off the ridges & valleys, but we asked them to do so on the areas they've not done yet. The job isn't quite completed, I have some photos showing the original shingles which mostly laid flat & smooth.
We're not sure how we should handle things at this point--the guy we contracted with is out of town & won't be back for a few weeks. We haven't paid any money yet.
Here's pics:
Hi guys,
sorry about the delay in response, we've been busy!
The job finished up yesterday, and the roof looks really good now--I think we (being first time roof customers) didn't realize how funky the shingles would be before they lay down, with the weather not being that warm. It's warmer now & it looks better & better.
Ed, that other site (Allexperts) was the only other one I posted on. I got a *lot* of good information from Stan, I spent a couple of hours reading his responses to lots of questions. I got good info here as well, and thank you for your input!! When I got several answers from roofers about the warm weather & the shingles laying down, I stopped worrying about the job. The roofers did tear off the ridges after we asked them to (they may have roofed one or two at that point), but none of the ridges look bad, considering it's a 2nd layer on asphalt shingles.
When reading Stan's info on ventilation, I realized we have a good thing in a working attic fan (just got this one fixed, it didn't work when we moved in)--and we were spending $200 on 4 static roof vents. I asked our roofer if both vents & attic fan would be redundant, and we decided not to install them, with the idea of installing soffit vents a bit later, so we saved a couple hundred bucks on that.
Re: the legality of more than one layer here (Southwestern Ohio)--I'm pretty sure it's okay, but I went to our (new) town's website & looked & looked in the regulations, could'nt find a thing anywhere about it. It's a common practice here though. I've heard you can have up to 3 layers here, but I'm not totally sure.
All in all, we feel good about this roofing job, they cleaned up well & were nice guys. I learned a heck of a lot in the process--especially about hiring contractors next time, asking the tough questions & checking work & references.

Chapter Seven
Kerry woke to the sound of Jo having a panic. "I really think I should call her parents, tell them what's happened..."
"I'm not sure that's wise," Ranajay was saying.
Kerry reluctantly emerged from beneath her duvet. She saw that somebody had roughly boarded up the window. Through the remaining glass pane, the dim light of early morning crept through.
"Mum and Dad are all the way in Greece," she reminded her aunt. "It would only worry them."
"Yeah, but how am I supposed to tell them when they get back? 'Oh yeah, sorry Cath, we're in a bunker at the moment but you can have your daughter back in a few weeks. Please send her homework to this PO box'."
"We're not going to be hiding in a bunker," Kerry said doubtfully. She sat up. She was wearing her clothes from the night before. As for Ranajay, he sat beside Jo with a pronounced slump and was tiredly pinching his nose.
"You certainly won't be there for more than a few days," he yawned. "Good morning, by the way."
"Morning," Kerry said.
"You two should pack. You'll need enough clothes to keep you going until we've got rid of Douglas. Maybe bring a few books and things, too, although I'm sure you won't be bored at Payton's."
"Am I going to be able to buy fags where we're going?" Auntie Jo said, slipping into her heels.
"Yes, I think so."
"I should hope so."
"Where are we going?" asked Kerry. "I mean whereabouts is it?"
Ranajay looked at her. "In Farcing, about half an hour's drive away. They're practically in the countryside. Listen, we really have to go. I know it's early, but I need to get back for when the circus moves. It's my car that pulls one of the caravans, you see."
"Oh right. Cool. So that's where you live?"
"That's where a few of us live. I share with Olaf, who is a total slob."
Jo stood up. "Yeah? At least he carries fags."
After a quick change, Kerry and Auntie Jo got their bags together and put them in the boot of Ranajay's car - a battered Ford Focus with a roof rack. In the end, Kerry had decided to pack light and carried a few clothes and her hairbrush in a plastic bag. Jo had nicked Kerry's suitcase and filled it with various clothes, shoes and toiletries. She experienced some difficulty dragging it up the drive.
Eventually, though, they all got in and set off down the dual carriageway. Jo sat in the front, pulling the threads out of her shawl. Kerry sat in the back, now wearing a pair of jeans, her red fleece and a shirt bearing the legend, 'I'm out of bed, what more do you want?'.
She wished she had a book. Kerry didn't read as much as she used to, but she still liked a good fantasy. The many stories she'd devoured as a child told of far-off places, where extraordinary things happened to ordinary people just like her. Around the age of thirteen, she realised that no aliens were going to abduct her, that she would never find a strange glowing crystal in the ground, and that an owl would never come flying through the window with a special roll of parchment in its beak. Things like that didn't happen in real life.
Except now, they were happening.
All the windows were rolled up, and Ranajay had the radio on. He turned the volume down as Jo made a call to the pub asking someone to take over her shift for a few days because she wasn't feeling well.
"Which isn't far from the truth," she groaned, turning off her phone again.
Kerry sat back in the seat and watched the trees and bushes blur past as they approached the motorway. Other cars zoomed past on the right side of the car; fields full of cows and horses rolled over the landscape on the left.
"Aha!" Jo exclaimed, pulling a packet of cigarettes from the side pocket. "Fags! Perfect!"
"Those belong to Olaf," Ranajay told her.
"Well, I'm going to nick one. Pull over, Ran, I haven't had one since yesterday."
So Ranajay kindly pulled onto the hard shoulder. Kerry got out to keep Auntie Jo company. It was a bit cold, but she tried her best not to set her teeth chattering.
"One time," Jo said in an odd voice, "I was travelling in a car on the way back to uni from this party. And we were on the motorway. So we stopped on this bit, like we're doing now, for a cigarette and a bit of air, and then the car stalled and wouldn't start again."
"What did you do?"
"I had to humiliate myself by walking around the car with my skirt hitched up, teetering about in heels, trying to look like I don't know which end of the car the engine's in." Auntie Jo demonstrated, mincing around in a comic fashion.
"Ha ha. Did it work?"
"Oh yeah. Two cars pulled over, both men, and one of them got us going again."
"You'd best never end up like me," Jo said, taking another drag. "Your mum was always the smart one. She got a proper degree. I took English Literature and dropped out in the second year to start working in the Blue Elephant."
"Well, at least you're pursuing a dream," Kerry said.
Auntie Jo blinked at her. "Pursuing a dream? I've been working in pubs and clubs since I was twenty-two, Kerry." She sighed. "The oldest of two siblings, and yet the least successful."
"Oh, that's not true."
"Well, your mum's a teacher, your dad's a teacher... that's how they met, you know, through teaching. Nice way to meet. Guess how many nice blokes you get to hook up with at a pub." She stamped out her cigarette. "Not many."
For the first time, it occurred to Kerry how little she really knew about her aunt. Her memories of Jo had always been of a happy and talkative woman someone who was fun to be around. But now... well, maybe Jo wasn't that happy after all.
"Is it weird?" Kerry asked tentatively. "Finding out magic exists?"
Jo turned. "Don't mention magic to me."
"Let's get back in the car then. I'm freezing."
Twenty minutes later, Ranajay finally turned up a long and narrow driveway and stopped the car. He got out first, then dashed round to help Jo. Kerry managed to exit the car without help, and leaned again her closed door, gazing up at the house before her.
The place was roughly three floors, although the windows at the top could have belonged to an attic or some such thing. The bricks were not red, but greyish and covered occasionally with growing green things. There were mullioned windows with brown ledges, the paint peeling off in places. Through one of the windows, Kerry could see a bookcase full of musty old tomes. She grinned excitedly despite herself.
"Well," her aunt said, also looking, "it's big enough."
Ranajay merely nodded and led the way. The front door was big and heavy and grey, with an iron knocker and a similar-looking handle.
"Go on and knock," Ranajay said, giving Kerry a nudge. A flutter arose in her belly at being suddenly charged with such a task, but she took hold of the ring knocker and banged it down three times.
They waited patiently for half a minute, and then the door opened.
Payton was a tall, white-haired old man with bulging blue eyes and very few teeth and what teeth he did have were yellow and crumbling away. Kerry noticed he wore a shirt and bow tie under his dressing gown. He grinned at them.
"Good morning, Payton," Ranajay said. "I'm sorry to bother you this early... This is Kerry Grail and her aunt, Joanna White, remember, from our phone call-
"But of course!" Payton beamed at them. "No problem at all, dear boy, I've been awake for hours, you aren't disturbing me at all. Besides which," he added, "any friend of Ranajay's is a friend of mine! And... wraiths! Yes, of course, well... in that case I suppose you two lovely ladies are in need of some magical training, aren't you?"
Kerry, for her part, was temporarily stunned all over again. She'd never seen anyone with such an enthusiastic manner. Every word out of Payton's mouth came out in a gasp and he was quite a trembly old man, which added to the effect.
"That's right," Ranajay said, relieved.
Kerry stepped forward before she had quite summoned up the courage to do so. "Nice to meet you," she murmured.
"You too, my dear," Payton said, shaking her hand. "Why don't you all come in and have some tea?"
They stepped inside, and Payton let go of Kerry's hand. She reclaimed it gratefully (she didn't like being touched by strangers very much) and examined her surroundings. The wallpaper was nice, and there was a strong smell of soap.
"Claudia!" Payton called through to the other room.
"Put the kettle on, our company has arrived!"
Kerry would have smiled if she hadn't been so nervous. Payton was clearly a well-read and highly educated man. It was hard to know whether to feel reassured or intimidated.
"Ranajay, if you'd like to step into the kitchen while I show our guests around..."
Ranajay hung back at the bottom of the stairs while Payton guided Kerry and Jo. They saw the next floor up, where a ladder poked down from the ceiling into what Kerry supposed was the attic. Dismissing the ladder for the moment, Payton led them on a tour of the three bedrooms.
"One for me and my wife, one for guests, and one which is also for guests, but is primarily where I must retreat when I snore," Payton explained.
They were shown the bathroom, the spare room and even the airing cupboard before Payton waved them towards the ladder.
"You go," said Auntie Jo. "I'm not going up that thing, not in these heels."
So Kerry took the lead, the ladder shaking worryingly as she climbed. The attic space she emerged into was dark and tasted musty, like antiquated paper. Even once she'd cleared the opening and clambered to her feet, it was difficult to see much until Payton came up after her and flicked a light switch.
It was a library.
Bookcases lined all the walls, even blocking some of the dusty old windows, and they were all holding books, from heavy hardback volumes to new and crisp paperbacks. On one shelf was a pile of old newspapers. On another, a stack of loosely bound manuscripts. A stripped pine table, roughly varnished, stood near the attic door. At the far end of the library was an especially tall bookcase that curled into a corner and back out again and had its own sliding ladder.
Kerry forgot her nervousness for the moment. "Wow. This place is brilliant!"
Payton smiled at her. "I've always thought so."
"Where did all these books come from?"
Payton began to stroll around the library, moving past the table with a few spare books lying higgledy-piggledy upon it. "Claudia and I collected them. Right from the off, we knew we wanted a really spectacular collection. We've had years and years to put it together, remember. And hopefully, we've still got a few years in us to enjoy them," he winked.
Kerry was wondering how to respond to this, just as Auntie Jo emerged from the middle of the floor, clutching her shoes in one hand.
"Jesus," she exclaimed, impressed.
"Thank you," Payton smiled, helping her out the rest of the way.
Kerry walked over not too quickly, trying to maintain some dignity towards the bookcase with the sliding ladder.
"Does this work?" she asked.
"It does," their host nodded. "It's very old and it rattles but by all means, use it."
"Wow, thanks," Kerry enthused. Bye-bye Dignity, she thought.
Payton pointed out a few final details, like the comfy sofa and armchair situated in the alcove to the right, and then they all went back downstairs.
In the kitchen, Ranajay and Claudia were drinking tea. Claudia was also silver-haired, was pleasantly plump, and was wearing a long violet flower-print dress. From here, Kerry could see her teeth she had more than Payton did, although several were discoloured.
"Hullo," she greeted them. "Nice tae meet ye. Tea a' roond, is it?"
"Do you have any coffee?" Jo asked. It was Jo's favourite drink of a morning. Kerry knew how she liked it scalding hot and strong enough to stand the spoon in.
Claudia shook her head.
"In that case, OK if I smoke?" Jo tried, rooting through her handbag already.
"Aye, it's fine. I'll hae ane masel," Claudia said. Jo offered her a cigarette, which she accepted. "Need a licht?"
Claudia proffered a lighter and clicked back the mechanism. "Fowk aye talk aboot tha' amiability smokers hae," she muttered.
Jo held her cigarette to the flame. "Yeah, I've heard that."
Kerry was about to comment, but something stopped her. She'd forgotten to ask Ranajay something. Deciding that this state of uncertainty within her had gone on for long enough, she walked straight over to him. It was odd, she thought, how he could fade so easily into the background like that. She was like that herself at school. Maybe that was why she didn't have many friends.
"Ranajay," she said, "what are we going to do about Douglas?"
"Well, he needs to be tracked down first," Ranajay told her gravely. "I've managed to speak to someone I used to know from the Consortium of Silencers, and he's promised to do his best to find Douglas."
Kerry sighed. "That probably won't be easy."
"He has a fairly distinctive appearance," Ranajay considered, "probably lives in Phalscam, almost certainly lives alone and works somewhere that doesn't involve much physical contact. Silencers have their ways. They'll find him."
"And will he kill him?"
This made Ranajay pause. "He'll try," he said. That's what they do. Mind you, not all of them are a match for a wraith. That's why the initiation process is so harsh to prove a person's worth. You need to be tough to be a Silencer, and you also have to be cunning and ninja-quiet. Amongst other things."
"Why did you leave?" Kerry asked.
He looked at her with his dirty dish-water eyes. "Now's not the time," he told her.
The two of them kept quiet for a minute. Over by the back door, Claudia and Jo had retreated for a quick smoke. Kerry had a small view behind them of the garden well kept and stuffed with flowers. Jo was smiling for the first time since yesterday. Kerry was pleased to see that Auntie Jo was getting on so well with Claudia, but it bothered her too. It wasn't fair that Jo had such a wonderful gift for fitting in no matter what was happening, and yet Kerry had fewer friends than fingers. She wondered if Ranajay had any friends.
Payton finished the tea and handed each of them a cup.
"I can't stay, Payton," Ranajay said. "I've got to go."
"Oh, yes, of course."
"But, Kerry," he went on, "don't forget to let me know if anything else happens. Be a considerate and helpful guest and do plenty of training. Can you do that?"
"Sure," Kerry said.
Jo stumbled back into the kitchen. "Whoa, whoa, whoa," she called. "You're leaving? When will you be back?"
Ranajay gave a sigh. "Tomorrow, if I can. Have a good day, everyone." And with that, he left. Auntie Jo half-leaned after him and some ash fell from her cigarette unnoticed.

When dealing with an Internet site you've never heard of, it's often helpful to perform a WHOIS search on the site to find out who you are dealing with. This is especially critical if you're buying clothing or other apparel. The reason is that the 'net is full of Chinese websites selling counterfeit goods to people who don't bother checking them out first. The probability of purchasing authentic, name brand merchandise from a Chinese website is practically zero.
In your case, a WHOIS search would have turned up the following infomation for the website you listed :
andy886 li
anmi,sd street,ningbo city
ningbo, shanghai 200000
If you paid with a credit card, you can dispute the transaction with the credit card company. If you didn't, you're out of luck. There's not much recourse since the seller is in China.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Another thing is that, in the past, I have some concern for the bundle copying, but currently, it seems that it does not affect the startup time too much :-) I think (b) is caused by something in xbean-naming federation code. Overall the xbean-naming federation seems to be quite slow. I haven't investigated why. It seems to be fairly hard to write a working jndi implementation and there aren't really any tests for what it should do AFAIK. I think the jndi implementation in openejb has some better design choices: the main one is that the Context implementation is clearly separated from the actual jndi tree data. I don't know if we'll have time to try to speed this up before 3.0, but at least we know a little bit about where a major problem is. For (c) I wonder if derby is doing more work than it needs to. Are we on an up to date version of derby? It's great to have this info about what is taking too much startup time even if we can't do much about it right now. thanks david jencks > > -- > Ivan

The Liberators
Sitting in his office, pleased with himself, by what he had done, both good and bad, was the honourable Brutus. There with him was Cassius, and he too seemed satisfied by his actions.
I knocked on the door before letting myself in, to join the ranks of the self-righteous. The two senators withdrew from their conversation, and then turned to me with worried smiles.
"Ah, Mark. Come in, come in," offering me a chair with a gesture of his hand. Cassius stood silently by the window, watching me as I sat across from Brutus.
"What may I do for you?"
"I'm not… interrupting am I?" I asked, staring at Cassius, who had a look of distrust, yet he forced a shrewd smile.
"Of course not," Brutus replied, "you are always welcome. My office is your office."
"But where are the others?"
"Yes, your compatriots. Decius, Publius, Cinna, Metellus, Casca…?"
"Oh of course! Well, no they will not be joining us tonight."
I found it difficult to not glare at them. To not spring from my seat and tear them to shreds for what they had done. To be in their presence, false friends like these.
"Very well," I grinned. "So, uh, Brutus. Or… do I call you Caesar now?"
Brutus looked to Cassius, who replied only with a look of his own, verifying the mistrust he had for me. Cassius then excused himself, "I think I'll leave you to it," and left the two of us alone in the office.
"No, no, there's no need for that. I wouldn't dare trample on the memory of a dead man like that."
"Indeed," I chuckled, but then turned suddenly sour, "just his corpse. Because… you are an honourable man."
His glibness altogether disappeared, and Brutus went to the defensive.
"Ah, I see you know."
"Yes I know. A frightful Casca told me. I of course blame myself for having not intercepted him in time."
"Does Lepidus know?"
"No," I growled, "Nor does Octavius. But they will soon enough. That is... if you don't kill me as well."
"Mark, I would never--"
"Of course not. Because you are an honourable man. All of you," I said referring to Brutus' co-conspirators, "are honourable men. You were only doing what you thought was necessary."
"Look, Antony," Brutus explained, "I know Julius was your friend, and he was my uncle. I loved him. And it eats me up inside, that we killed him, but we did what we had to. He was becoming more powerful, and we were unprepared to let our republic fail because of one man."
"That one man, WAS the republic," I retorted, "and if I were a better man, I would have stopped him from meeting you that night, both Calpurnia and I would have convinced him to wait until middlemarch had passed like the analyst said."
"I know you must hate me, Mark--"
"No, I don't hate you Brutus. Nor Cassius. Nor any of the others. Like I said: you are honourable men. What is treason, but a matter of dates?"
"Precisely," Brutus said getting a smile in edgewise, confused by my tactics. For I was bipolar in my method of questioning. I was alternating my morals before our conversation had even ended, without any persuasion from Brutus.
"The world will understand. Rome will understand. They will be grateful Caesar is gone. They will forgive his murderers. You have freed the public from the tyranny of a dictator."
"Yes." Brutus nodded.
"You are liberators!"
"Yes!" Brutus shouted now, standing up as he did so.
"You, Cassius, Decius, Publius, Cinna, Metellus, Casca, and Cicero all lured him to the forum, and you all took turns killing him, stabbing him in the back."
"No, Cicero wasn't there," Brutus blurted out. Then I smiled genuinely at last, and pulled out of my pocket, a tape recorder, which had caught his entire confession.
"Then I suppose Cicero has nothing to worry about. My only wish is that Cassius was here as well."
Brutus didn't answer.
"My guess is that he probably warned you not to talk to me. Not to trust me. I suppose that makes you as naïve as Caesar, who put his faith in you."
Brutus' expression changed again from pride to guilt. He had been tricked into revealing what happened, so he slumped back into his chair. Setting his elbows up on his desk he burrowed his face into his palms, and wept.
Meanwhile I rose from the chair, and turned to leave, when Brutus called, "I'm sorry, Antony. So sorry."
Without looking at him, for Brutus disgusted me, I replied, "Were you sorry Brutus, when Caesar looked among his assassins and found you there to greet him with your sword? I can only imagine what his last words might have been… et tu Brute?"
Once again, Brutus didn't answer, and he resumed crying, as I left to turn my evidence over to the media, and then the authorities. "I would leave Rome while I still had the chance. Because some people, plebeians, slaves... your countrymen. Romans... they won't show restraint like I have. Goodbye, Brutus."

The Rope That BindsMature
A young woman in a coma tries to understand how she got there, while navigating a strange dreamscape to find the answers she seeks. (Horror)
I walk through this strange world, looking for some kind of answer. I don't belong here, I know this much. But then, where do I belong?
I don't even remember how I got here.
The sky is the color of lilacs, and the water is clear. I haven't met anyone in this place. It is so lonely here. The ground is bare, but it does harbor a few buildings, but they are unimportant to me. I'll investigate them later.
I've been in a dark cold void for so long, but now I'm here. It's a nice change to the constant darkness. The only thing that is consistent in this place is the occasional red rope. It's random, but it must have some significance right?
I go to one of the buildings to investigate, and find a note. It's in clumsy written cursive but it's readable:
How long is this going to go on? I can't take much more.
Suddenly I find myself in a classroom, large and somewhat frightening. I turn to see a group of people mocking a person in the corner. How weak she is. How she's a loner. That she's useless.
"Stop it!" I shout, but it goes unheard. I can do nothing here but observe. Maybe this is a memory? One of the others hit her and run, along with the others. Then I see her. A younger me is crying in the corner covered in bruises.
They don't know the truth. She says to me, holding the note.
I rush to her to help, but her body begins to distort and then she starts to wail, hurting my ears. The next thing I know I'm in the ruins of the place one again, the note on the floor. I'm shaken and confused, but I know I must go on.
I leave the building and gather the red rope from the ground outside. It might mean something. I make my way to the next one, this time with a tape greeting me. I slip it into the player next to it and sit in a rotted chair to listen.
Guy: (laughter) you're so fucking stupid!
Her/me: Shut up!
Guy: Shut up you fucking bitch!
(Noises are heard in the background, followed by shouts of protest)
Her: Get away from me!
(A thud is heard, she's been knocked to the ground)
Her: No!
(The protests are repeating till they are but a whisper)
I cover my ears, I don't want to hear anymore but the sound seems to have found a way into my brain. The horror continues.
(Crying is heard, and footsteps echo away) (Tape ends)
I'm rocking in the chair trying not to cry. I remember the alley. I remember what he did to me. Everything was taken from me. My innocence. My will. All of it, gone like smoke.
I stumble out of the building, the rope in my hand. Since I have taken the rope from the previous building, the other have disappeared. It's the only one I need.
I make my way to the other building, wiping away burning tears. This building is newer, like a light from the darkness. But why do I feel so scared of it? What secrets does it hold?
I go to the only room I can find, towards the center, and when I open the door I'm greeting by my body, hanging from the ceiling. I'm horrified, my mind reeling. Then the head moves to look at me, her eyes filled with tears. She says something, when the rope suddenly snaps, her body hitting the floor.
Yes, I remember. I remember what I did, and how I failed.
Wake up.
That's what she said. That's what I said.
I run over and remove the red rope from her neck trying to wake her at the same time. Wake up.
"Wake up!" I shout.
She opens her eyes, bloody tears streaming down. She grabs me and pulls me close to her face, and I have to try not to scream as It contorts once again like in the classroom.
"You need to wake up. Not me."
"WAKE UP!" she screams, my fear taking over as I cower away and shut my eyes. I need to get away from here. I just want to go home and wake up in the safety of my room. I want to start over again.
Then I hear a gasp,my own, and I open my eyes again slowly to see the white walls of a hospital room.
I hear the girl's voice give me one last message, as it fades into the darkness of my mind:
Redemption is yours. Use it wisely.

The Truth
"This is the truth. This is all that I am afraid to say. This is all that I've been hiding and keeping. This is what I've been going through. This is for you. I know you'll never read this. I know you'll never see it. If you do, you probably won't believe me. But I'm saying it anyway."
Warning: It's going to be biased and childish and I am going to blame everyone around me but myself. It is going to be whiny and annoying and oh so filled with angst.
I am depressed. Not sad. Not dramatic. Not lazy or ungrateful or hormonal. I am depressed.
I know you can't understand that. Why would you? You know nothing outside of that little box you surround yourself with. Anything you don't understand can't possibly be true, right? Well, it is. I am part of your life and you see me go through it every single day. You scream at me about it. You complain and scold me as if it's something that I can change in a matter of seconds. But you don't really see it, do you? You don't see what it's done to me and what I've been putting myself through. You see but you don't see. It's been years and you're still utterly blind.
I've been alone and surrounded by darkness all this time. I've been harming myself and hurting myself. Thoughts of death are the only solutions to the problems that others seem to handle with ease. I've had no one. All this time, I had no one. You were there, but you weren't there. It always got worse when I was around you, because being around you was a constant reminder of my nothingness. Being around you, so fond of seeing nothing but yourself and your problems, showed me that I didn't exist. Not in your world. You spoke so highly of everyone but me. Always. I was always to blame when another was clearly at fault. You were so fond of finding ridiculous loop holes just so you could put the blame on me. You never knew that I could not handle even the slightest blow to my already low self-esteem. You never knew how hard I cried afterwards, how I had trouble breathing and moving, how the only thing I knew how to do was to crawl into bed and cry myself to sleep in a fetal position.
I was so lonely all this time that I made friends of my own. Friends that weren't real. Friends that held me when it got too bad and told me that they would make it better. Friends that bandaged my wounds and tried all their best to distract me for the oncoming storm that would haunt me if they left. They always left. Because that's how I knew people.
All the while you were outside my bedroom door, completely oblivious to my suffering. You lived your life with petty burden and you complained about them as loudly as you could, as if everyone in the world needed to hear of it. I was loud too. You just chose not to hear me. I was screaming for help and you went on as if it was just a gust of wind.
There comes a point in life where you get tired of blaming yourself, when all the mistakes and faults you've acquired just pile up inside of you that there's no room for anymore. So you throw the blame on someone else. That's what I'm doing now. I'm blaming you. I'm blaming you because I no longer have the motivation and drive to do even the most menial of tasks. I'm blaming you because leaving my bedroom takes such Herculean effort. I'm blaming you because I think of ending it everyday. I'm blaming you because I have no other means of fixing it. I'm blaming you because I am unable to interact with people without the fear of a man walking to his execution. I am blaming you because even the simplest things can trigger the harshest of tears. I am blaming you because I can no longer bare to blame myself. I am blaming you because I can no longer survive another reason to hate myself. I am blaming you because you are here and yet I am still completely alone. I am blaming you because I no longer know what to do.

I m a student of 12th std...i hv recently givn my 12th boards in feb 2014...i hd secured 68% in ssc. I want help regarding what shuld I pursue further...ma interest is specificaly in medical, since there are many fields m unable to guide myself to whch field shuld I go for...i need your help.... please suggest me...presently I am gng 2 appear for mh-cet.
Hello there!
Dear Aspirant,
I am glad that you want to become a doctor in your life. From your question it seemss that you have passed your SSC examination in medical (Biological subjects) with 68% marks. To achieve your dream of becoming a doctor, you have apply for entrance examinations. There are common entrance exams at state level and also at national level. To pass these exams you have to prepare yourself, you have to really study much subjects like Biology, Physcics and Chemistry. You can do self study or there are many coaching centers which imaprt good training to get through these exams.You shoud target to pass the exams with very high score, this will help you to get selection in MBBS (it is a degree in which you become doctor in allopathic mediciens) and that too in a very good and reputed medical college. If your marks come down, then you will not be able to get medical college of your choice. The career in MBBS is very rewarding and satisfying from job point of view. This profession really require lot of hard work but finally it is a very satisfying occupation. With even low scored marks, it will be difficult to get admission in MBBS and then there will be other choices available such as BDS (Bachelor of dental Surgery), BAMS (Bachelor of Yurvedic Medicines), then BHMS (Bachelor of Homeopathic medicins).You have also mentioned about Pharmacist and Pathologist.To become a pharmacist, you have to study BSc in Pharmacy and then after you should go for amasters degree and finally a doctoral degree (PhD) is must.Similarly to becomoe a pathologist, you have to graduation in Biology subjects or specialization in Clinical microbiology, medical microbiology , Microbiology (general) or Clinical pathology. After this a masters degree is must in the subject of clinical pathology or clinical microbiology. But again a deoctoral degree with specialization in Pathology (Clinical or medical) will be necessary.You can also write Doctor before your name, if you do not clear the MBBS or medical entrance examination. You should gof for graduation , post grduation in any life science subjects (Microbiology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Genetics) and finally a doctoral degree in any of these subject.Hope I have answered your quesry.I wish people should call you as Doctor (MBBS)
Welcome to meracareerguideWe are happy to guide you through to a perfect career.Great to see your positive attitude towards your future. You selected medicine as your career and it is service oriented. Therefore every field related to medicine is basically a service to humanity. You are different from others because you want to serve mankind. I appreciate it and feel proud about you.In my opinion, you should not worry about the specialisation you are going to take in your post graduate level of qualification or studies. Initially you need to complete your graduation. Graduation in medicine includes mbbs, bhms, bams, bnys and bums. These are allopathic, homeopathy, ayurveda, yoga and naturopathy and unani. You should take the entrance test and the choice is totally dependnt on your score of your entrance exams.Once you have enough score to choose mbbs, finish that course with good marks and start practicing as a physician or rmo in a hospital. Then you need to appear for higher entrance examination so as to get admission to a post graduate course. By then you must have taken a decision as to which super speciality are you are interested in. I think you should be able to decede then, definitely not now.Therefore wait, be prepared and leap at the right time. In the meantime, you could take a psychometric test to know whether you will succeed in your chosen field. Psychometric tests measure your aptitude and your aptitude tells your career area.Hope this answers your query.Good luck.

getting around
I was interested to discover earlier today that the news of Pan MacMillan's experiment with non-DRM ebooks has been spreading; to my knowledge I was the first to bring it to public attention in the Mobile Read forums. From there it spread to a couple of items at Teleread, with this piece grabbing my interest in particular; it has a link to a demo video by the makers of the stanza ebook software showing, amongst several others, Stealing Light. The image you can see is a screengrab taken from the video, of an iphone running the software (the picture is from Teleread).

Tag: refuge
A place of refuge
Daily I have to set my mind and my spirit on a deliberate course, to go to the place of being hidden in him. I know we should stay there but at times like these I am checking where I am, I know the course of life can cause me to not live in that place no matter how great my intentions are. But my desire is to maintain that place of being hidden in Christ. For some you will say we are already there and we appropriate it by faith, yes I agree, as it says in Colossians 3:2-3 'Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. ' I also know that people have a tendency to drift and it is moments of attack or pressure that show us where we really are, then we can adjust our position and our bearing. Even this passage from Colossians is encouraging us to 'set' ourselves because of the truth. And that is what we do, we set our course because of the truth. We set our course to be hidden in Christ, to dwell in the … Read More »

Developing Web Applications with Zope X3
Zope, a web application server written in Python, is an extremely popular open source content management system platform. The newly developed version X3.0 was released just recently. We'll show you what's new in Zope X3.0.
Since the release of the Plone [1] content management system (CMS), it has been hard to imagine a world of free web application servers without Zope [2]. Python, the language Zope is primarily written in, brings object-oriented and modular source code to the world of Zope, along with the kind of agility and flexibility more typically associated with web scripting languages. From the CMF to New Developments Zope is a popular platform for CMS. Most free Zope CMS systems (such as Plone [1], Silva [3] and CPS [4]) use a Zope product known as the Content Management Framework (CMF). The CMF framework for Zope 2 not only had the tools necessary for developing a content management system, it also provided a component-based architecture Difthat supported flexible modification of individual components. The experience gained developing with the CMF was then supposed to be incorporated into the Zope development process.

Chapter 1. In the Beginning...Mature
This is a story about a seventeen-year-old man who is so proud of his distaste for relationships, and only cares about what matters to him and his only friend, Desmond. However, they quickly discover that they are both interested in the same girl and it really tests how long Leon can be loyal to Desmond for, before he gives in to his desires and puts their friendship on the line.
Sometimes we are forced to choose between two things – sometimes two people – which both hold equal value to us. It's never an easy decision, and more often than not, the two things people must choose between is friendship or love. And no matter which you decide is more important, you will lose. This is the story of one of those predicaments; a story of a seventeen-year-old boy who must choose between his best friend and a girl he loves who happens to be his best friend's girlfriend.
His eyelids slowly drifted apart on a cold Tuesday morning. He knew as soon as he had awoken that the holidays had come to an end and it was time for him to start his first term as a year eleven student. He heard his mother calling from just outside the room, telling him to get up. He rolled out of bed with a grunt and stumbled over to his dresser where he grabbed his school clothes. He opened the door and saw his mother just outside his room.
"Oh good, Leon. You're up. I just wanted to make sure you actually woke up before I left."
"Mmm," Leon grunted and he walked past her. He dropped his clothes in the bathroom and turned to enter the kitchen. He heard his mother leave, and he had begun making coffee. After a few more minutes, he heard somebody knocking on his front door.
"Oh, for Christ sake," he said under his breath. He grabbed his cup of coffee and walked towards the front door, and when he opened it-
"Hey, Leon. Why are you still in your pajamas?"
This was Leon's best friend for seven years. "I don't know, Des. Maybe it's because I woke up five minutes ago."
"Why aren't you having your morning coffee like always, then?"
"I was in the middle of making it. Then you came knocking on my fuckin' door."
Leon stepped to the side and held door to allow Desmond entry. Since Leon and Desmond had been best friends for so long, Desmond had always gone to Leon's house where they hung out before they left for school. Desmond walked straight in and turned Leon's PlayStation 4 on without asking and began playing "Grand Theft Auto." Leon walked past him with his eyes almost completely shut, and mumbled, "Coffee?"
Desmond shook his head, but Leon had almost missed it; being drowsy. He returned to the lounge room with Desmond shortly after and sat down to watch while he drank.
"So," said Desmond, "how do you think this year'll be?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, how eventful will it be? Not much has happened the past few years. Most that's happened to me the past three years was getting a girlfriend and that was two years ago."
"So you're asking me if I think I'll be in a relationship? Me?"
"Look, Lee, I know you always say you hate them, despise them and they – how did you put this delicately again? – Oh right, they make you want to regurgitate. But trust me—"
"No, you trust me, Des. Teenage years aren't a time for fucking around with girls. It's a time to focus on your school life, do well, and get a good job to provide for oneself in the future. We don't need such interactions at such an age. It's despicable."
Desmond rolled his eyes in concede and resumed playing his game. After about thirty seconds of silence, Leon turned to him again, "No. I don't think anything 'eventful' will happen this year – not to me."
"Right," Desmond said with a chuckle, "so you can focus on school. And by focus on school, you mean sitting in front of your computer, learning senseless crap about their hardware, and playing 'The Legend of Zelda' while you listen to metal music?"
Leon wasn't sure how to respond. He finished his coffee and stood up, "I'm going for a shower. Won't be long."
After he had gotten out of the shower, he was dressed and ready to go. He walked down the hallway to rejoin Desmond.
"You ready?" Said Leon.
"Yeah. Let's go," and they began walking to school.
"I know you think it's disgusting," began Desmond, "but I think you would be much happier in a relationship."
"Des, look, let's say for a moment that I did want a relationship, hypothetically. I'm not very popular; you're my only friend. I don't know what girl would want to be with me anyway."
"You aren't popular because you act so pessimistic and negative about everything not to do with video games, music and computers. Seriously, and I can even help you! You just need to—"
"Shut up? Yeah, YOU do. And don't ever condescend to me; I don't need help."
"You mean, 'don't anthropomorphise me', right?"
After they finally arrived at school, they headed to the one place they always sat at whenever they weren't in class. It was always just Leon and Desmond. However, Desmond was off grabbing Leon's and his timetables for the year, leaving Leon to sit by himself. He didn't mind being by himself, though. He just sat in the corner, listening to his favourite band, Sonata Arctica. He was almost completely lost in his favourite song of theirs, "Full Moon," when Desmond had approached him at last. Popping out his left earphone, he heard Desmond.
"Here," he said, handing Leon's timetable to him, "we've got English first, and then music. After lunch we have…" he looked closely at his timetable, "Maths! Brilliant."
He sat down next to Leon. "You know, I've always wondered how things would have turned out if things worked out between Brie and I," said Desmond, "I mean, I was so freaking happy."
"Mm. I kinda miss having Brie around, myself actually," said Leon. "I'm sorry, man. It sucks that it didn't work out. But you keep holding out and I'm sure you'll get into another sick, disgusting relationship with some other woman soon enough."
Desmond stood up. "Well, we should head off to English now then."
When they finally arrived to class, they glanced around: typical, they both thought to themselves. Every class they had ever been enrolled in was full people they both hated. They took two empty seats in the back corner of the room. Leon turned his music back on and kicked his feet up onto the table waiting for the teacher.
"Do you ever listen to anything besides Sonata Arctica?"
"Ha. Why would I ever need to?"
Their first English lesson seemed to drag out forever, but in reality it had only lasted an hour. Music was a subject that Leon and Desmond both highly enjoyed, and they had that right after English. They had both been looking forward to their first music lesson; Leon was very passionate about playing the piano.
"And that's another problem with you, Lee. You won't meet any women if you play the fucking piano."
"Oh, you're right," said Leon in retaliation, "Why would girls go for a pianist when they can get with some dumb prick who knows how to hit a few barrels with wooden sticks over and over? You know what they say about drummers. Plus, to reiterate, I don't WANT to meet any girls for Christ Sake. Relationships are nothing but trouble," Leon finished, as he played the same five notes in fast sequence on the third-highest octave on the piano in front of him.
"Okay, everybody sit down!" called the teacher, and Leon obeyed and took a seat next to Desmond. He begun by introducing himself to the class and running over the basics of music-
"…And I'll assume everyone knows the difference between a treble clef and a bass clef? Yes? Okay. And how many of you can actually read music in here?"
Leon turned to Desmond, "Fuck, this is boring. I thought we would actually learn something, not sit on our asses learning about the simplest crap—Oh, sorry. I forgot you're a drummer and don't know any of this." Leon winked and began to laugh under his breath as Desmond nudged him and smirked. The teacher fell silent as he heard a knock on the door. The teacher called across the room, "Come in!"
Everybody's gaze was fixed upon the door, now. They watched the door swing open, and as it did, most people just turned back to the front of the classroom; Leon's gaze, however, was still fixed upon this newcomer at the door. Without noticing, Leon's jaw dropped the tiniest bit, separating his lips very slightly, and his eyes widened. He felt his nerves quickly shoot through his body as she began to speak.
"Hi, my name is Alice."
