We are a family of 5 from Australia and we stayed in Deepikas apartment for 1 week in August 2016. I have outlined some pros and cons to give you a good understanding of the apartment.
- great location as very close to central Colombo
- security of apartment is good as there is a 24/7 guard at front entrance
- Spacious apartment and good for a larger family
- owner of apartment is easy to deal with
- No air-conditioning in the main living areas, the apartment was extremely hot and the pedestal fans did little to help (not good if you are not used to humid and high temperatures)
- The bathrooms were out dated and not very user friendly. The bathrooms could do with an update as there were cracked tiles, the shower heads would not hold to the wall and the bidet had a very bad smell..
- The beds were very uncomfortable and after a week caused back pain
- The apartment wasn't cleaned throughout the week or not offered by the owner
- only one set of towels offered for the entire week however when asked the owner did provide additional set of towels
It's a peaceful place to stay, I spent the weekend with few of my friends. And I would reccomond this place to anyone.

Cheesy "Garlic Bread" MuffinsA community recipe by Jordengel
Not tested or verified by Nigella.com
Whenever we have spaghetti bolognese, my husband insists on garlic bread. I dislike the store bought foil wrapped loaves, so I modified a "Cuppa Muffins" recipe from a friend. Now I needn't buy garlic bread again!
Serves: 5-12
- 250 self-raising flour
- 250 grated cheese
- 250 milk
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic (to taste)
- 1 sprinkling of mixed dried herbs
Cheesy "Garlic Bread" Muffins is a community recipe submitted by Jordengel and has not been tested by Nigella.com so we are not able to answer questions regarding this recipe.
Additional Information
The base to the mix are the 3 Cuppa ingredients. You can spice these up with anything you fancy. I generally mix these up and put them in a preheated oven before I start on the pasta & bolognese. That way everything is ready at the same time to sit down for dinner.
Makes 10-12 good size muffins

16 reviews | 4.5 out of 5
Had to buy this for my son again. It is not Walmart's fault but instead the shoddy case that the manfgr. makes. I have read multiple posts that the disc's get pressure fractures in the inner ring from just taking them out of the case. This was a GREAT deal compared to what other stores wanted and as a plus the shipping rate was more than fair as well. This was the first time I had used the Walmart online shopping option but with the pricing, up-to-date tracking, and prompt product shipping I will definately use it more often. Just a bit of advice, buy a different case to keep these expensive games in.
I had a great experience ordering from Walmart online with this game. It was 25% cheaper than anywhere I could find. Also, delivery was expected to be 2 weeks but it came in just 2 days.
Great experience and I would do it again.
OK, so I'm not a gamer. I haven't had an experience with a video game since the first era of Mario Bros. on the old Nintendo console. So, when my husband put in this game that I bought to go with his new PlayStation 3, I was absolutely blown away by the graphics. He is the gamer, but I enjoyed hours of just sitting there with him while he played the game, helping him find targets. Ladies, if you want your man's attention 24/7, do not buy them this game. They will become absorbed in it until the very end. But, if you crave your "me" time for a mani and pedi, or just to get out with the girlfriends, then definitely get your guy this game. He will be thoroughly occupied at home while you are out having fun. LOL.
Got this game late but at least I saved $15 on the first map pack. Not the best multiplayer when playing against others online. Very laggy but at least they don't have too many cheap moves like Modern Warfare 2 like knifing across the map. The game is only worth it if you like the zombies.
Great product for the price. Map pack an essential.
Just what I was looking for and I know its getting good use...
Works great , thanks Wally ;)
I was happy to see the way I wanted it very and in my option I would buy from Walmart again
My kids love the game..
Excellent game
I ordered this online and picked it up in my local store. I ordered from here because it "said" it came with the first strike package thing. This was a birthday present for my brother. Did not get the bonus content. Anyone know how I can?
I just got this game and played it twice. Its a good game for beginners and non beginners especially at low price with the bonus map included. Black Ops II much better.

I would choose E.
Would much rather be armed and safe than unarmed and buzzed.
For some strange reason I can't feel comfortable and have a good time without my weapon keeping me company.
This is a discussion on Out of town new years party - hotel stay. within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I am going away tonight to a New Years eve party out of town. I want to carry my gun for the time I am ...
I am going away tonight to a New Years eve party out of town. I want to carry my gun for the time I am not at the party. I am staying at a hotel that does not have room safes. I want to drink a little tonight, and I will not allow myself to have my gun while I have been drinking. ( I believe in following the law to the letter.) What should I do.
A. Leave my gun at home
B. Take the gun and hide it in my room unloaded with the Glock supplied cable lock.
C. Have the front desk lock it in their safe over night.
D. Lock it in my glove box while at the party and driving back to hotel. Or even in the truck bed in a box we keep emergency winter cloths in.
E. Choose not to drink tonight and be legal.
Note: I do not drink in excess, do not drive after I have been drinking, but would like to drink a few beers while I am at a party.
What would you do.
I would choose E.
Would much rather be armed and safe than unarmed and buzzed.
For some strange reason I can't feel comfortable and have a good time without my weapon keeping me company.
While people are saying "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, ... and they will not escape. 1Th 5:3
Thanks for the reply. I was thinking I would do just that. Drinking is not all that important to me.
If you plan on being sober enough to drive home, lock the gun in your car. It is probably safer there than in the hotel room. This is the sort of situation that makes a Center-of-Mass lockbox handy to have int he car.
If it were me and I were planning on having no more than a couple of drinks all night, I would just carry---I am well acquainted with my own alcohol tolerance and would be comfortable making that decision. If it is a private party (not at a bar or hotel or some such), then I can't imagine there would be a law against carrying while sipping a drink.

I think C is the best bet if you are sure the Hotel has one. The idea behind the law is that any kind of chemical influence may inhibit your decision making. So if you follow that logic, having it completely out of your reach is the best bet. Having it at the hotel is a little better than leaving it home.
I am just about to leave the house. I have locked my guns up in the safe. I have packed a few beers in a cooler, and have decided Cadillac is a safe town. I walked around this planet for 36 years without a gun, two more days, hopefully, wont kill me.
Thanks for the advice guys, and I hope I'm not sorry I didn't take it.
You mention wanting to be "legal". Is it illegal to consume any alcohol whatsoever while CCing in MI?
I don't drink and shoot, but I'll certainly drink (within reason) and carry. Since you're not one to overindulge, in your shoes I'd simply carry as normal and enjoy a cocktail or two. I carry to have the ability to defend myself. That concern doesn't go away for me just because I have a drink or two. As a matter of fact, in an environment where some may be drinking a little too much, my concern for my safety may actually increase.
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."
Theodore Roosevelt
I am currently thinking the same issue, as this is my first new year's with a CHL. I think I might just take a hit and be the DD, but haven't decided for sure yet. In Texas I believe it's any intoxication is in violation of the license while carrying--am I wrong about this?

+1 on E. I don't even trust a car safe, unless it's bolted to the floor pan. The cables are too easy to cut.
You'll rock, with a 357 Glock
If I know that I am going to be around drinking even if I am not drinking I will leave it at home.
Option E sounds good to me...

No, because at this point I believe making sure that the HashMap does not get corrupted (using syncs on put and remove) is enough to guarantee that the get method doesn't enter an infinite loop (by returning null, or the result when there's a problem - it will be unpredictable, but seems to me equivalent to the higher level concurrency issues if you mix and match reads/writes in the webapp for critical data without being careful). Other than this, it doesn't look that the collection being used with its default parameters is that optimal. > Is it possible to create a thread-safe hash-map without synchronization? > Ok, if two threads put in an element with the same key it might not be > deterministic which of both are really set then, but this is not the problem we > have to solve. Maybe using a fully array based structure rather than a linked list would make it more robust (ie, reads could be bad, writes could be lost, but the structure would remain consistent). There is stuff like ConcurrentHashMap, but it of course does synchronization of its own. I did agree previously (hence the current code in the 5.5 branch) that robustness is good, and that the HashMap structure should be protected, as there's no way to restore it, so there are syncs for put and remove. Since there's a real demand and you guys are quite persistent, I now agree on adding an extra configuration parameter on the context allowing to define the sweet spot for the collection size, as well as its synchronization policy (the default being the current 5.5 behavior, unless/until it is shown to still be able to cause the inifinite loop originally described in the report). -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Billing and Invoice Software Review
The Best Billing & Invoicing Software for Small Businesses
The top performers in our review are FreshBooks, the Gold Award winner; QuickBooks, the Silver Award winner; and Zoho Invoice, the Bronze Award winner. Here's more on choosing an application to meet your needs, along with detail on how we arrived at our ranking of the top 10 billing and invoicing software programs.
Small business owners typically don't have an accounts payable department; usually the task of billing and invoicing customers and vendors falls to you. Using billing and invoicing software can speed this process and help you manage your billing so you get paid on time.
Our reviewers tested 10 different programs to find the best invoicing software. We tested each program thoroughly and compared how easy it was to use them. We looked for useful tools like batch invoicing, mobile apps and the ability to process a customer's order online. The best billing software has intuitive and simple platforms anyone can use. It can send invoices by email and allow you to create reports to analyze your billing.
If you are in need of software that offers more than billing and invoicing, our Accounting Software reviews can help you pinpoint programs to manage your business's finances. For more information on these software and services, take a look at our articles on billing and invoice software.
Our Verdict & Recommendations
FreshBooks is our top-rated billing and invoice application. It has one of the highest scores for ease of use, with a simple online platform that makes creating invoices easy. It has a variety of useful features, including the ability to set up recurring invoices, plus it can generate quotes and estimates. A built-in timer allows you to bill for hourly work. FreshBooks has a variety of payment options so customers can pay you online. This invoice software offers a free 30-day trial and has subscription plans that vary depending on how many clients you bill.
Zoho Invoice is another good choice for small business invoicing and billing. It has the most complete suite of invoicing features of any software we reviewed. With this application, you can send invoices to multiple clients, customize your invoices, process payments online and get access to a wide array of reports. Zoho Invoice is part of a larger suite of business software that includes CRM and accounting software. You can use Zoho Invoice for free, but the free version is limited.
QuickBooks is one of the most well-known invoicing programs, and it offers solutions for a variety of businesses, from independent contractors to services to nonprofits. It offers all the requisite tools for creating invoices, including a built-in timer so you can keep track of how much to charge if you bill by the hour. Your customers can log into a portal to make their payments. QuickBooks also offers some of the strongest reporting features, with over 40 different reports. QuickBooks offers a free 30-day trial and has various pricing plans for businesses of different sizes.
Invoice2go is an app-based billing program that is a good fit for smaller businesses. You can accept payments through the app. SliQ Invoicing offers an intuitive platform and good reporting options but has limited payment options.
Billing & Invoicing Software: What We Looked For, What We Found
Our reviewers tested 10 billing and invoicing programs. We sought out programs that are intuitive and straightforward, make it easy to create and customize invoices, and that allow you to process payments with ease and create reports to track sales.
At their core, these programs all fulfill the same task: invoicing customers for the goods and services you provide. We evaluated how easy it is to add and edit customer and product information and to navigate the program. Our Ease of Use score reflects our experiences, with higher scores going to invoicing programs that have a simple setup process. Typically, online platforms are easier to use than desktop platforms.
We looked for features that help you manage your invoicing more efficiently, incorporate technology for more accurate billing, and that allow you to customize your invoices to better manage your brand. The best invoicing software allows you to send out multiple invoices at once and set up automatic invoices for recurring transactions. If you charge on an hourly basis, you want a program with a timer so you can track your hours and ensure you bill for the time spent on a project. If you work for a service that offers estimates or quotes, you want the ability to quickly create those in the program and send them to potential clients.
Billing & Payment
The second most important aspect of these programs is their capabilities when it comes to billing your customers and accepting payment. Our processing score reflects the ease with which you can set up a billing account by connecting the program to your email and posting payments online. Again, online programs scored better than desktop software. Desktop software required additional setup (server and port number settings when connecting to a POP email).
The best billing programs include a customer portal so your customers can log in and make their payments directly instead of mailing a payment. These programs can also accept multiple currencies, so if you serve a global market, you can accept payments from your foreign customers.
Most billing software offers options for accepting payments online. Typically, you're charged a percentage of each transaction. To learn more about the costs associated with accepting credit cards online, check out these reviews.
Each of the billing and invoice software applications we reviewed offer a variety of reporting options. Reports help you chart your finances and track which invoices are outstanding. Reports can be automated and exported as PDF files. The best applications also allow you to receive reports by email.
Help & Support
Finally, we considered the customer support options each software provider offers. Every company can be reached by email, and many have phone or live-chat support. Most include a knowledgebase with FAQs and manuals to help you with questions you have about the program.
Being a small business owner often means keeping track of the bills and invoicing customers yourself. A good billing and invoicing program can make that work easier so you can focus on other critical aspects of running your business. These programs are easy to set up, your customers can pay online, and with the reporting features of many of these applications, you can glean key insights into your business you may otherwise not have with your current system.

"My cats love these. They are quick and simple to make. For anyone unfamiliar with the yarn that is suggested for the pattern, it is a fingering weight, 4 ply yarn that is 100 percent cotton. I used worsted weight and a 3.5mm hook for mine, so I wouldnt have to worry about the cats pulling the stuffing out through any holes."

"What does (K1. Inc 1 st in next st.) mean? I think st means stitch, but I don't understand how to do what it says. Thank you "
"This is absolutely stunning! I love it. I love vintage China and this is one way to display it. For my own personal taste I would use less pieces in the back, or even paint the background to make it pop more, and use the broken pieces on,y around the border as a type of frame. But that's just me. Alternatively, using less cups and just feature a ew with the broken pieces may set them off better. But all in all this is a great idea and display! Love it!"

text: Developing Successful Business Strategies: gaining the competitive advantage by Rob Reider English | 2014 | ISBN: 163157079X | 150 pages | PDF | 5,6 MB This book presents effective planning business strategies and related budgeting concepts and those activities necessary for the successful growth of the organization. The planning process is shown to be an integral function of developing management strategies for future growth and the gaining of competitive advantage in these fast moving times. Budgeting is presented as a logical outgrowth and an essential part of the planning process rather than an independent internal activity. The book emphasizes the principal factors that should be considered in planning and budgeting for the company, what management and operations personnel must know to better understand effective planning for the business, and what can be done to enhance the overall strategic and financial planning for the organization. The intent of the book is to introduce and explain the relationship between effective planning methods (long-term and short-term) and the budgeting and control processes. The program concentrates on practical approaches to organizational planning and integration with budgeting as well as enhancing familiarity with related concepts and methodology. The book is designed for those who desire to increase their knowledge and practical use of planning and budgeting techniques as a means of achieving improved organizational effectiveness. In addition, the book intends to show the interaction and interdependence of the strategic planning (long and short term), detail planning, budgeting and monitoring processes and to demonstrate how planning is an essential first step in the preparation of an effective budget for the organization.

This any use to you?

This is quite useful, but due to Firefox being able to bypass our proxy we are reluctant to install Firefox on PCs. I was wondering if it was useful for other users to request a toolbar which can be viewed from our desktops? I think having the internet windows open along the bottom can get annoying.
I have email notifications enabled, but thought it would be easier to view to have a toolbar to have on your desktop i.e. Vista Toolbar etc.

I would advise submitting a feature request for this, I would certainly spice it up.

Originally posted on Total Titans | Last updated 1/1/13
Starting this weekend, the 12 best teams in the NFL will participate in postseason play while the Tennessee Titans and 19 other teams will watch their superiors perform. It should be no surprise to anyone who watched the Titans this past season to learn the Titans did not fare well playing against those teams. Overall, the Titans did not fare well at all, but they were especially outclassed, and usually embarrassed, by the teams they faced who went on to postseason competition. When you evaluate a team by how well they fared against the best competition they faced, the Titans came up woefully short in the measurements. These are some stark realities. The Titans were 0-7 against playoff teams in 2012. The Titans were outscored by those teams 227 to 87. The Titans' offense averaged just 12 points per game against those teams. The Titans' defense allowed an average of 32 points per game to those teams. The average margi...

È stato scelto un vincitore tra 67 design presentati da 7 designer.
RulerPhone is an iPhone app that lets you measure anything your iPhone can take a picture of. I need a 320x480 splash screen to display while the app is booting up.
I'll let you be creative -- check out http://benkamens.com/rulerphone and learn about the product! The splash screen should include the text "RulerPhone" and some cool design relevant to the product.
- Cool design
- 320x480 px splash screen
- There is no space between "Ruler" and "Phone" -- "RulerPhone"
- RulerPhone uses the iPhone's camera to measure items in pictures -- so perhaps involving a lens or camera in the image as well as a ruler could be interesting.

Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (KERX.OB) Receives Orphan-Drug Designation for KRX-0401 (Perifosine) for the Treatment of Multiple Myeloma
Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., a developer of medically important pharmaceutical products for the treatment of life-threatening diseases, recently announced that the company has received Orphan-Drug designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for KRX-0401 (perifosine) for the treatment of multiple myeloma.
Multiple myeloma is a cancer of the plasma cells. Although incurable, this disease, which represents 1 percent of all cancer diagnoses and 2 percent of all cancer deaths, is treatable. According to the American Cancer Society, there will be an estimated 20,580 new cases of multiple myeloma and an estimated 10,500 deaths from multiple myeloma in the United States in 2009. Patients with multiple myeloma typically relapse and become refractory to prior treatments, causing them to eventually die from their disease. Keryx Biopharmaceuticals is committed to developing new therapies to improve patients' quality of life and extend survival rates.
Ron Bentsur, chief executive officer of Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, stated, "The Orphan-Drug designation for perifosine in multiple myeloma is a very important milestone for Keryx, as the market exclusivity protection provided by this designation significantly enhances the commercial opportunity of perifosine in this indication." He continued, "Following our exciting announcement last month that we had reached an agreement with the FDA on an SPA for a Phase 3 trial for perifosine in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, it is encouraging to further add to the value of the perifosine program with this Orphan-Drug designation. We look forward to commencing the Phase 3 study by year-end."

Long Time Posting
So, it's been a long time since I posted, so a few updates are in order. The Pullen Arts Center Cone 6 Reduction Workshop was great, and with just 4 participants, everyone got A LOT of work in the kiln, between 25-30 pieces each. We had a great firing, with even reduction and temperature, and some great pots! Thanks to Antoinette, Colleen, Marilyn, and Pat for making the workshop happen.
The 3 Guys* Sale came and went very quickly, with some very nice pots walking out with their new owners the last weekend of September. Doug and Kelly both had good sales, and mine were a little behind what they usually are. Guess it was just my time, but I'm happy and thankful for all the people who did get some of my pots at the sale. We will see what happens the rest of this year with the Piedmont Craftsmen Fall Fair and my Nine Toes Pottery Studio Holiday Sale.
One quickly approaching thing I wanted to let people know about is my friend Blaine Avery's Fall Open House, which is happening this weekend. Blaine is in Seagrove, NC and has some really nice salt fired stoneware, reduction fired stoneware, and a line of low-fire tiles. His showroom/studio is great and he will have lots of nice pots on hand this weekend, so go ahead and check it out. You can go to http://www.averypotteryandtileworks.com/ for more info. Here are some images of Blaine's work:

Shanna Marie McLaughlin - Playboy Playmate - Jailed After Attempting To Carry Loaded Gun On Flight
Orlando, Florida (The Weekly Vice) - Another Playboy Playmate goes to the dark side... adding to the long list of Playmates who have been jailed, fired or overdosed on drugs in the last few years.
Shanna Marie McLaughlin, a 25-year-old former Playboy Playmate was jailed after TSA agents found a loaded handgun packed inside a duffel bag as she attempted to board a plane at the Orlando Airport.
Apparently she didn't get the memo that guns aren't allowed on planes?
According to police, McLaughlin placed her duffel bag into the X-ray machine as she attempted to check her bags during a flight out of Orlando. That's when a TSA agent saw what appeared to be a hand gun inside her bag - which inevitably turned out to be a loaded Ruger SAA .45 long colt.
Investigators say McLaughlin stated that she had no idea she was carrying the gun, but pointed out that she possesses a concealed weapons permit.
After a thorough, TSA worthy pat down search......yeah, let that sink in for a minute.....McLaughlin was taken into custody.
She was booked into the Orange County Jail on a charge of carrying a firearm in a place prohibited by law.
McLaughlin was crowned Playboy's Miss July in 2010 and is also a University of Central Florida graduate. She was best known for causing quite a stir on the UCF campus when she was involved in steamy locker room photo shoot at the school.
Here are a few of the other Playboy Playmate stories we've featured over the last two years.

The afternoon was warm, the sun shining brightly as it moved across the pale blue sky. Dean was seated on a bench outside his family's motel room, his legs stretched out before him, head leaned back against the wall, his eyes closed. He and his father would be leaving soon, leaving Palo Alto and Sam behind once again. A hunt was calling across the border in Nevada and in any case, Sam was itching to get back to classes and had been a brooding pain in the butt since the day he waved goodbye to Ritu as she'd boarded a bus that would take her to the other side of the country. She'd be finishing her year in the States at a different college and Dean knew that Sam's eagerness to return to class had just as much to do with keeping himself busy in order to keep from thinking about what he'd lost as it had to do with catching up on all of his missed work. Dean sighed as he remembered the tears Sam had tried to hide as the bus pulled away. He hadn't let on that he'd seen and had actually drawn John and Bobby's attention away from his brother until the kid had been able to pull himself together. Sam had been sad and moody ever since and as much as Dean and his father understood why, he was still beginning to get on their nerves so when the call had come for help in Nevada, John had jumped on it. They were nervous to leave the kid, but at the same time, they knew that the best way to get him back on his feet was to give him his independence back.
A slamming door brought Dean out of his musings and he glanced over to see Roger loading his bag into his truck. Dean was still mad, but not so much at Roger anymore as with the demon who wouldn't leave his family alone. He found himself actually liking the guy, admiring how even though the danger had passed, Roger still stuck around to make sure Sam was okay. He was heading out to his own hunt, but Dean had overheard him tell Bobby he'd find his way to Palo Alto every chance he could to check on Sam. Part of Dean was resentful of the idea, it was his job afterall to watch out for Sam, but the more reasonable part of him was thankful that there would be yet another ally to help them keep the youngest Winchester safe. Dean had yet to speak to the man and from the looks of it, it was now or never. He groaned as he pushed to his feet and walked over to Roger's truck.
"Uh, hey, Roger…getting ready to head out?" Dean asked as he stepped up behind the older hunter.
Roger hesitated before turning around to meet Dean's gaze. "Well, I…um…yeah I am. Gotta be in Kentucky day after tomorrow at the latest. Thought I'd head out now and drive all night when traffic is lighter," he answered in his deep, slight drawl.
"So, do you think we can talk for a few minutes…if you have time?" Dean asked.
"Um…yeah, sure," Roger replied hesitantly, the man unsure of Dean's intentions.
Dean nodded then turned and walked toward the small grassy area across the parking lot. Roger followed and sat down opposite Dean at the small picnic table in the center of the lawn. Dean had his eyes down, seemingly finding something very interesting about his clasped hands that lay atop the table. Roger watched him, warily, then finally cleared his throat when the silence became too heavy for him. Dean looked up, but still didn't speak.
"Look, Dean…I understand why you hate…" Roger started only to be cut off when Dean raised his hand to stop him.
Dean sighed as he cast a quick glance toward the motel where Sam was now standing in the open doorway of their room, looking their way with a worried expression on his face. Dean gave him a quick nod before turning back to Roger. "I don't hate you. I was really, really pissed at you…like murderously pissed, but…I finally realized that the one I was truly pissed at was myself. I wasn't here to keep Sammy safe. I promised him he could always count on me to be there for him and I wasn't. I lied to him and, well, I had to take it out on someone. You were the perfect target. I'm…I'm sorry I was such a dick to you, Roger," he said, holding his hand up again mid apology when Roger opened his mouth to protest.
Roger brushed a hand through his hair and let out a shaky breath then met Dean's gaze. "You had every right to be mad at me, kid. Still do. I was supposed to keep that demon away from your brother and I didn't. I let Sam ditch me and that bastard got to him. I'm responsible. I'm…"
"See, that's where you're wrong. You're not responsible for Sam's safety…my dad and me are. You came here to fulfill a debt you owed Bobby. You didn't know Sammy or me or Dad from iota, yet, when the shit hit the fan, you didn't run. You put your life on the line to try and save my brother…you protected him and his girl as best as you could and when things still went south and Sammy was hurt, you stuck around. You could have high tailed it out of here, but you didn't. You knew Bobby would be pissed…and you knew that Dad and I would be homicidal even though you'd never met us, yet you stuck around anyway. You stuck around because you felt responsible and because you truly care about my brother…I can see that. I should have been thanking you, but instead I treated you like garbage." Dean looked away, back toward the motel. Sam was no longer standing in the doorway, but Dean knew he was still watching them, worried that at any moment his big brother was going to start throwing punches. Dean smiled at the thought then turned his attention back to the conversation at hand. "I owe you a debt of gratitude and I'm sorry it's taken me this long to tell you," he said with a heavy sigh.
"You don't owe me anything, Dean. We're hunters, and if we're good hunters, we watch out for each other whenever we can. And I may have come here to settle a debt with Bobby, but once I met Sam, I just knew somehow… I knew he wasn't just some hunter's spoiled kid. I could see straight off that he was special so you're right, I do care about him. I don't know what that demon wants with him, but I can tell you this…I'll help in any way I can to find out. All you guys have to do is holler. That boy in there doesn't deserve what's going on…none of you do. I'm just glad that something good came out of all of this…that Sam got his sight back," Roger said as he watched Dean intently.
"Yeah, that is a plus…I'm just scared about the reason why that son of a bitch gave him back his sight, but I can worry about that later. I just wanted you to know that I'm sorry and that I really appreciate what you've done for Sam. I don't want to hold you up any longer so I'll just shut up now," Dean said with a slight chuckle.
Roger stood and reached his hand across the table. Dean stood too and took the offered hand in his then gave it a strong shake. "Like I said, you don't owe me anything…but, I can see how important it is for you so, apology accepted," Roger said before pulling his hand back and turning toward the motel.
The two hunters made their way across the parking lot then stopped beside Roger's truck. The door to the Winchester's motel room opened and Sam stepped hesitantly out into the sunlight. He lifted a hand to shield his still sensitive eyes then turned to look at the two men. "Um, is everything okay out here?" he asked tentatively.
Dean smiled as he walked up to his brother and patted his shoulder. "We're good, Sammy," he said before disappearing into the motel room. Sam watched Dean over his shoulder and once the door shut he turned to face Roger. "So, it looks like you're leaving?" he asked softly.
Roger nodded and took a step toward the teen. "Yeah, gotta hit the road, kid," he answered with a smile.
"Well then, I guess this is goodbye. Thanks for everything, Roger," Sam said.
"It ain't goodbye, Sam. We'll see each other again. Now, you take care of yourself, you hear?" Roger replied.
Sam smiled, dimples on full display, before darting forward and wrapping his arms around the surprised hunters back. Roger stood motionless for a moment, but it only took seconds before he too had the teenager in a strong embrace. The two pulled away, both hunter's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, but both wearing fond smiles on their faces. "You take care too, Roger," Sam said as he stepped backward toward the room door.
"I will, kid," Roger said. He walked slowly around his truck, opened the door and slipped behind the wheel. A few moments later Sam was watching him pull out onto the street and once the truck had disappeared from sight, Sam turned and walked back to his family's motel room. He opened the door and disappeared into the dimly lit room, his heart heavy as yet another friend left him. He knew that by the next day, he would be all alone as his father and brother were planning an early morning departure for Nevada and Bobby would be heading back to South Dakota. He himself would be returning to classes come Monday and hopefully things would return to normal, at least to as normal as things could possibly be for the youngest Winchester. His thoughts turned to Ritu as he walked across the room and plopped down on the bed farthest from the door. He missed her so much and wondered how she was doing, if she had arrived safely in Boston. She had told him before she boarded the bus that she wouldn't be calling him, that it would be too hard so he could only hope and pray that she was safe.
"She'll be fine, Sammy," Dean's voice called softly, causing Sam to jump as he was pulled from his thoughts.
Sam turned and watched as Dean walked out of the bathroom and around the two beds. The elder brother sat down on the edge of the other bed and faced Sam. "I know you're thinking about her and I know this is hard, but she's fine and you are too," Dean said.
Sam sighed as he swung his legs over the edge of the bed and sat, just as Dean was sitting, facing his brother. "I know she'll be fine…it just hurts, you know?" he said, softly.
Dean reached over and patted Sam's knee, a sad, comforting smile on his face. "I know it does, kiddo and I wish I could do something about that, but I can't. It'll get easier, I promise," he said.
Sam nodded then looked up as the door to the room opened and John and Bobby stepped inside. "Hey," he said as the two hunters walked up to the end of the beds.
"You two ready to go get some chow?" Bobby asked as he plopped down on a wooden chair that sat next to the small table by the door.
"I could eat," Dean answered with a wide grin.
"When couldn't you eat?" Sam asked with an even wider grin.
Dean turned to him and eyed him incredulously. "Hey! I can't eat when I'm sleeping!" he cried with a huff.
"If you could figure out a way you would!" Sam shot back, the young man chuckling as he slapped Dean on the knee.
Dean pursed his lips then slowly nodded his head. "Yeah, you're right. Now, let's go eat!" he quipped before jumping to his feet, patting his belly and rushing to the door.
Sam shook his head and smiled as he pushed to his feet and followed his brother to the door. He turned and smiled up at John as he passed him then stepped out into the sunlight behind Dean. John grinned as he looked over at Bobby then followed his sons outside. Bobby groaned as he stood, the old man shaking his head as he listened to the sound of the two brothers rough housing outside. "Idjits," he said fondly as he stepped out the door and shut it firmly behind him.

Early morning dawned, the night sky giving way to just the faintest hint of blue as the sun began its slow ascent. A man sat silently on a bench in the center of a small park, his presence hidden by the deep shadows of waning dark. Across the small park, a family of three said their goodbyes. The man watched as two of the three climbed reluctantly into their sleek, black car and after hand waves and soft commands to stay safe, the car pulled away from the curb leaving the tall, slender, dark haired young man watching silently after it. The man smiled as the young man finally turned, a duffel bag slung over his shoulder, and walked to the multi-storied dorm building across the way. The young man stopped just outside the door and turned his head in the man's direction, his head cocked as if he sensed someone watching him. Finally, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a key. He inserted the key in the door then pulled it open. With one last look behind him, he stepped inside and disappeared from view.
The man on the park bench stood and looked up to one window. He smiled as the light came on in the window and watched as the young man appeared, his large eyes peering out before he grasped the curtains and pulled them shut.
"Don't worry, young Sam. I'll be here, watching, and when I can't be, there'll be others to watch for me. You'll eventually forget about me…you and the others. You'll go to your classes, meet a new girl, fall in love. Your life will go on, but when the time comes, I'll come for you because you belong to me. Enjoy your life while you can," the man whispered into the cool morning air. With one last look at the window above, he turned and walked away then disappeared as if he'd never been there at all.
