Although our stay last April was short, I felt that we experienced a lot of what makes Venice so special – enough to know that we'll make it a point to come back sometime — sooner rather than later, I hope.
Since our first visit to Tredozio, Italy in June of 2013, I've dreamed of a return to this serene village of Emilia-Romagna in the Apennine mountains. During our April trip to Italy, my dream was fulfilled. We once again enjoyed the hospitality of our host at Torre Fantini (you may remember reading about our stay here in 2013) and were royally welcomed at another lovely estate in the EsteVillas portfolio of holiday rentals, Villa La Collina.
From our romantic apartment in Asolo, we not only enjoyed the culture and lifestyle of the captivating town just beyond our doorstop, we had easy access to other wonders of the Veneto region of Italy on side trips during our four-day stay. With our expert guides and gracious hosts Mr. TWS and I explored highlights that included regional wine, art, and architecture. Here are five places that we recommend for your Veneto itinerary.
I often think of Asolo. Since our April visit to this town in the Veneto region of northeastern Italy, I've thought back fondly to many moments of our stay there. The picture-perfect hilltop town exudes romance with its winding lanes, beautiful villas, galleries, cafes, and fabulous views from its lofty position.
Traditional food and wine of Mantua Enjoying regional food and wine is always a key element in our travels. While staying at Palazzo Castiglioni in Mantua, we indulged in a variety of local specialties. We also learned about Mantuan pride in the agricultural richness of the area (in large part due to its proximity to the Po River) and […]
Parco Giardino Sigurtà (Sigurtà Garden Park) Open from March 6 to November 6 (2016) Since Mr. TWS and I are bike-riding enthusiasts, a bike tour of an award-winning park and gardens in Italy sounded like an awesome idea. So I really looked forward to this part of our stay in Mantua, Italy. I hope these photos will give you a […]
Music is an essential part of Mantua's culture, and the Mantova Chamber Orchestra is an important part of Mantua's music. For over 30 years, through their concerts and special projects the organization has spread the enjoyment of all musical genres to families, young people, cultural tourists, and all music lovers.

- Use of OER remains consistent but low, with little increase seen over time; 50 percent reported that they "Currently use" OER content in online courses in 2011, while 49 percent reported that they "Currently use" OER material in 2009
- More than 50 percent of chief academic leaders have a very positive view of OER material and its potential value to their institution
- Chief Academic Officers and faculty report that key barriers to adopting OER are the lack of a single, comprehensive catalog of content, difficulty finding content, and concerns about time and energy spent selecting and evaluating the material
- Public non-profit institutions are most aware of OER material; nearly 60 percent report being "Aware" or "Very aware"
- Open Education Resources are not well known among chief academic officers; one-half are either "Not aware" or are only "Somewhat aware"
New report from Babson Survey Research Group, Hewlett Foundation and Pearson cites key barriers to widespread adoption of OER material in higher education BOSTON, Nov. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Chief Academic Officers and faculty at non-profit and for-profit institutions of higher education report that the adoption of open educational resources remains consistent but low, due to key barriers such as the lack of a single, comprehensive resource, according to a new report from Babson Survey Research Group, Hewlett Foundation and Pearson. The survey of Chief Academic Officers from institutions of all types, and teaching faculty from across all types of higher education institutions, tracked attitudes and consumption of OER content from 2009 through 2011. The results focused on four main areas, including current use, potential value, awareness and barriers. Key findings of the survey include:

Lead manager Matthew Kamm works the market like it's a garden with variety. He treats his young sprouts differently from his mature produce, and both of those differently from crops he's ready to reap.
This approach is working. It has made his $9.7 billion Artisan Mid Cap Fund a top performer among the largest diversified U.S. stock portfolios.
In the 12 months ended Jan. 31, its 31.18% return topped 91% of its midcap growth peers tracked by Morningstar Inc. Its 16.94% average annual gain in the past three years topped 92% of its rivals.
Kamm, 40 years old, discussed his investment course with IBD from his office in Milwaukee.
IBD: In addition to Mid Cap, you run $906 million Artisan Global Opportunities and $1.7 billion Small Cap . How does managing different cap-size and style funds help you?
Kamm: Our team includes a group of analysts and five portfolio managers who work collaboratively to identify best ideas. We've been at this over 15 years. That level of tenure and trust is important.
We look up and down the market-cap scale and globally. That gives us broad perspective. We like to think we're better midcap investors because we know small-cap competitors and international emerging markets competitors that U.S. midcap companies increasingly face.
IBD: You divide your portfolio into three types of stocks. What's the advantage?
Kamm: The nomenclature we use is garden, crop and harvest.
Garden stocks are ones we believe are just emerging. We try to be early into them. We guard against risk by keeping garden positions small.
When a garden position turns out right and profit growth plays out, we allocate more into it and push it into our crop bucket or portfolio. Those are our largest positions and fewest positions. That's where we feel the profit cycle has been largely de-risked.
The third area is harvest, where we reduce positions.
IBD: How are you tweaking new buys to cope with the expected slow-growth economy?
Kamm: We've been focused on uniquely positioned franchises that are exposed to some strong growth trends. You see some signs, especially in the U.S., that the economy is getting better. Housing and jobs are examples. But emerging markets are struggling to grow at the same rates they experienced a few years ago.
We're focused on durable, high-quality franchises. We're less interested in high-commodity businesses and materials. And those business models are very cyclical, economy sensitive, but tend not to meet our franchise characteristics criteria.
IBD: What are some real-world examples, please, as of your latest disclosure?
Kamm: We're focused on innovation in health care. We're 10 years past the first sequencing of the human genome. Now we're seeing benefits in novel drug targets.
Regeneron (REGN) is an example. They have a drug called Eylea, which is a retinal drug for age-related macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness for the elderly. It was launched in 2011. In its second full year it sold $1.4 billion. It's a strong driver of company sales and profits.
Regeneron also has a diverse pipeline of additional opportunities to extend its profit cycle into the future.
They were all discovered in Regeneron's own labs, but primarily funded by Sanofi, a large French drug company, in return for the ability to market these drugs and share profits.
IBD: Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) recently gapped up after reporting strong results and guidance. Its 30% earnings per share growth was the second straight quarterly acceleration. What's your thesis?
Kamm: We think they're positioned for growth. They have a very strong brand associated with high-quality ingredients. They have a significant opportunity to grow their footprint of restaurants in the U.S., and ultimately internationally.
They're executing well. They're getting customers through serving lines quicker. They've enhanced menus. They're offering office catering. They're able to drive solid same-store comps year-over-year and make restaurants more profitable through higher volumes.
They've resisted increasing prices to the same extent that a lot of restaurants have. Instead, they're driving growth through higher volume and traffic.
IBD: Alexion Pharmaceuticals (ALXN) has had a great run and just gapped up the other day. What makes you think it still has room to run?
Kamm: It fits our innovation theme. Their sales and profits are driven by Solaris, a biologic drug that's approved for two ultrarare, very serious diseases, not just in the U.S. but globally.
They still have room to run because both uses of Solaris still have a lot of growth ahead of them. There's still a lot of opportunity to reach more patients.
Solaris is also being tested for three or four additional ultrarare diseases, where early clinical data are encouraging. In three or four years, there will be additional (treatment) approvals for Solaris.
They also have asfotase alpha (which targets certain bone diseases and tooth losses), which is expected to be approved later this year.
IBD: Is broker-dealer LPL Financial (LPLA) a play on a growing economy?
Kamm: They're the largest independent broker-dealer in the country. They've grown by attracting financial advisers away from big banks and wire houses, giving them independence to grow their practices in ways they see fit, and letting them keep a larger percent of their profits.
They continue to gain market share, and we like market-share gainers. We like companies that can outgrow the market in a sustainable way.
Also, LPL captures some of the float on cash balances that customers keep with them. (Float refers to earnings on cash between the time a customer authorizes disbursement and when the cash actually leaves the account.) While rates were low, there was not so much float to capture. But if rates rise as the economy improves, then LPL earnings will accelerate.
IBD: Where's the innovation in a stock like athletic wear seller Under Armour (UA)?
Kamm: The innovation is in new materials that deliver better performance, whether sweat-wicking or shielding athletes from heat or cold. Companies like Under Armour and Nike (NKE) and Adidas have been able to grow by innovating product lines and driving increased value to customers.
Under Armour has a great brand with athletes, especially young athletes, who are inclined to spend more. They're expanding into other categories, such as footwear via cleats. And that's translating into more traditional ware like running shoes.
They've been mostly a U.S. brand, but they're extending their brand internationally and driving additional growth outside the U.S. So we think they still have a long runway. They're in our bucket category.
IBD: Am I right in thinking you like Illumina's (ILMN) genomic sequencing advances?
Kamm: Gene sequencing is a transformational technology. In 2007 they launched a next-generation sequencing platform. Cost of sequencing began to fall, leading to big growth in the market. They launched (on Jan. 14) another new product (the HiSeq X Ten) that delivers the first $1,000 genome, a target that researchers have been fixed on for five or six years.
So they're the center of action in human genetic research and have significant growth opportunities as they make these tools even more affordable.
IBD: TripAdvisor (TRIP) has pulled back from its Nov. 15 high. And earnings per share fell in the most recent quarter. Why aren't you concerned?
Kamm: They're the leading review site for hotels and other travel destinations globally. They've moved toward a bidding model, where companies bid for placement on a TripAdvisor site. It's almost like bidding for Google (GOOG) search terms. Earnings have declined during this process because it is a transition. They're foregoing some older advertising measures as they move customers to the new bidding system. Until this new system starts to mature, their profits are lower.
This was expected. That's why it's a garden investment. It will move up as they get through the transitional period.
IBD: Cepheid (CPHD) has uptrended since June. Why has it shown so much volatility in quarterly earnings?
Kamm: This is a crop position. They make diagnostic systems that let hospitals easily identify molecular markers of disease in patients. That used to be a complex, time-consuming process that required highly trained staff. Cepheid made GeneXpert, which automated it. You put a blood sample into a plastic cartridge, which goes into the instrument, and you get the answer. So more hospitals can do molecular testing.
The company ran into manufacturing challenges, which hurt earnings. Over (the past year) they've addressed those issues, exited 2013 in a better place in terms of inventory and ability to provide test cartridges to customers. And they have a broad pipeline of new tests that they've brought to market. Now they have to leverage their new systems to do a broader range of tests.
IBD: Is Fortune Brands (FBHS) a play on the housing rebound?
Kamm: They're a leading housing-products company, and this is a crop position.
They have a leading position in fixtures for kitchens and bathrooms, cabinets, faucets and locks in what tend to be attractive segments. It became clear last year that the U.S. housing market was coming out of the depths of the downturn. Fortune has been gaining share in key markets. That's delivering strong margin expansion, and margins are still below the peaks of the last housing cycle, so it's reasonable to assume that margins can continue to rise.
IBD: The rate of growth of LinkedIn's (LNKD) earnings per share have declined for two quarters. You've added to your stake in several recent disclosures. What's your game plan?
Kamm: LinkedIn has transformed the recruiting and hiring market. The main advantage is that people update their resumes and profiles even when they're not actively looking for a job. People who are hiring can access a rich database of not just job-seekers but also of people who would be open to the right opportunity. That's valuable to corporate HR departments.
In recent years LinkedIn has been investing to improve its mobile smartphone and tablet tools and provide more content, more articles and experts who write on topics that are relevant. That brings people to the site more frequently and with a higher level of engagement. And that translates into more advertising dollars for LinkedIn. There's not only a growing number of recruiters who subscribe to the platform. There's also growing advertising business. All of this has a long way to run.
IBD: You began your current stake in Melco Crown Entertainment (MPEL) in September. Why do you like this particular casino stock?
Kamm: They're a leading casino operator in Macau and the Cotai Strip (in Macau), which is well known as a high-growth market, noticeably larger than Las Vegas. The subtle shift in the market in recent years is that the market is no longer driven primarily by high rollers, ultrahigh net worth individuals gaming in Macau. It is driven by the mass market today.
Melco's properties are well positioned to serve the mass market. And that part of the market is more profitable than the high-net-worth part. Melco is working to open new properties, which will expand its earnings potential.
Also, transportation to Macau is improving. And we're seeing changes that make it more attractive for destination travel, not just gambling demand.
IBD: Your stake in Tractor Supply (TSCO) has edged up.
Kamm: They're the leading supply store for recreational farms and the rural lifestyle. They have 1,300 stores today. We think they have potential for at least 2,100 stores. As they grow, they've done a good job of increasing productivity of existing stores. They've done a good job of understanding their business data.
They've done a good job with e-commerce to leverage their brand outside their physical stores. They've done a good job of laying in private label goods within the store to provide different price points and help expand their own margins. All of those drivers have potential in the coming years.

Tom Hunter, Scotland's fourth richest man and one of the handful of successful retail entrepreneurs looking for a business in which to invest the small change from their multi-million pound fortunes, will be spending this weekend considering his options.
After the Takeover Panel on Friday gave him two weeks to put up or shut up over his £200 initial approach for House of Fraser, which is uninterested at that price, Hunter will be looking at more than just that group's fundamentals.
There is his interest in Allders in which he has built a stake just short of 8 per cent and thereby earned a seat at the table for talks between Minerva, the 27 per cent largest shareholder, and his old friend Terry Green, whose bid Minerva is backing.
But there is also the wider picture to look at, particularly where department stores are concerned. This is, for once, not so much about the British shopper's willingness to keep spending as hidden challenges that are giving forward-thinking retailers nightmares. 'The next six to 12 months will see increasing pressure on retailers' costs and that will be largely driven by the Government,' says Bill Moyes, director general of the British Retail Consortium.
'Retailers are going to have to think very hard as to how they manage their cost base. Shop prices rose by less than 1 per cent in 2002 and there is no ability now to build margins by increasing prices.'
At the same time, he says, the Government has unwittingly planted a time bomb. In October, the new minimum wage rules will come in to force. The climate change levy is in the offing, as are new rules on packaging. Moyes says the rumours of a plastic bag tax have not quite disappeared and he is also concerned about a proposal to extend stamp duty to lease transactions. Then there is the revaluation of business rates.
For some, the answer has got to be consolidation and this chimes nicely with Hunter's argument over House of Fraser and Allders: bigger means better buying power, on everything from products to refits.
Moyes adds: 'Whether the impact of all of these charges and rules will be more consolidation I do not know but I am confident that it will lead to far fewer jobs being created.'
The merchants have already cut their prices and cut them again to boost sales and keep up with competitors: this, helped along by technological advances in some cases, is why the cost of goods across the board has stagnated.
So it is not surprising that Selfridges' finance director Peter Williams, who will take over from chief executive Vittorio Radice when Radice goes to M&S, highlights the fact that margins have been held at last year's levels. With like-for-like sales growth over the key Christmas trading period of just 2 per cent and the 7 per cent rise over the second half set against a weakened 2001, the margins grow ever more significant.
Williams says Selfridges will weather a tougher 2003 by sticking to its existing strategy. 'There is no doubt that with the climate in the Middle East and the threat of unemployment still around, consumers are going to feel less confident than they did last year.
'We feel that our strategy is the right one. We are more than the brands we sell. We plan to stick to stores in the eight main cities because we believe you need a certain amount of space to do what we do and the right location to do it in.'
Margins were House of Fraser chief executive John Coleman's proudest boast as he unveiled trading figures on the same day. Again, although these were better than analysts were expecting they were still hardly exciting: 2.2 per cent for the second half of the year to Christmas Eve and 1.6 per cent for the 23 weeks to 4 January.
Coleman is inevitably in defensive mood, having rejected Hunter's 85p-per- share approach. 'We have made a 20 basis point improvement on our margin on top of a 35 basis point improvement last year, and this was a much tougher season.'
Most of this, he says, was achieved because House of Fraser bought less stock going into the autumn and so had less to discount than some others when the weather stayed warm. He has also already made cost cuts worth £4m this year and £3m next year. He says a second phase of cuts has been completed, but will not put a value on that.
It is margins that analysts will look at when Debenhams reports Christmas trading figures on Tuesday and M&S does on Wednesday. They have already absorbed and accepted that sales over this crucial period were solid rather than spectacular so it now becomes more important than ever to establish how much profit a retailer can turn from each till transaction. Tom Hunter and John Coleman may not agree on a price for House of Fraser, but their public pronouncements on cutting costs suggest that they would both back that argument.

Hello, Everyone! In this latest video blog (see below), I want to cover a serious topic that has received a lot of media attention as of late. Given the recent shooting tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut, many folks have pointed to video game violence as a possible contributing factor to shootings and other acts of aggression and violence. In fact, this has been a topic of concern ever since video games such as Space Invaders first hit the scene. Every time there is a mass shooting, such as in Columbine, Virginia Tech, Aurora, and now Newtown, video game violence receives increased scrutiny and blame. This is definitely a topic worthy of careful investigation and consideration, and I will tackle this important issue in multiple segments. Here's the first one, and I hope you will pass it around and come back for the rest!—Dr. Brooks

Chapter 43.1Mature
Robert moved behind Beth, using her hands to hold the gun.
"If you're going to stand there the whole time, it's going to distract me," she mumbled.
He chuckled, kissing her neck. Once he'd made sure she was holding it properly, he stepped back.
"Look down the sights at the target," he said.
Beth did as he said, aiming at the centre of the target. She squeezed the trigger and yelped at the force of the gun as it jerked back. Thankfully, she didn't drop it.
"Not bad," Robert mused.
Beth looked at the target. The bullet hadn't hit the centre, but it hadn't missed either. She couldn't help grinning.
"Not bad?" she asked, turning to him.
"For a first-timer," he said, sounding serious, though the shine in his eyes told her he was joking.
Her mouth twisted as she tried to stop a smile.
"Show me what you can do then," she said, giving in to her grin eventually.
He walked over, taking the other gun from the low shelf, as well as some of the ammo beside it. He stood beside her, his body turned completely towards her. He didn't even look as he took aim and fired.
When Beth looked at the target, the bullet had hit dead centre.
"Show off," she mumbled.
"We have competitions," he shrugged, grinning.
"Such as?"
"Last year we had a drawing competition with the M60s."
She raised an eyebrow. "Who won?"
"Jay and I tied."
She shook her head slightly. "You lot are crazy, you know," she mumbled.
"We're aware of our status as clinically insane, yes."
She looked over at him. He was grinning wildly. Rolling her eyes, she turned back and continued practising. Robert watched silently, careful not to distract her but occasionally making comments to help her improve.
When he decided she was good enough with a pistol, he moved her onto something else. He took the Glock and put it back in the cupboard he'd got it from.
"Right," he said as he came back, "this is an STG-44. It's a semiautomatic assault rifle."
He placed it on the shelf in front of her and she stared at him in disbelief.
"You trust me to fire this?" she asked, pointing at it.
He grinned. "I've told you, I'd trust you with anything."
"You really are crazy."
He laughed before loading it for her and demonstrating how to use it.
When it was pressed into Beth's hands, it was much lighter than she was expecting it to be. She held it against her shoulder like he'd shown her. She aimed at the new target he'd put up. When she squeezed the trigger, she held her breath.
She released the trigger after a short moment and grinned at the target sheet. All the shots were dotted around the centre.
"She's not half bad," said a familiar voice from the door.
Beth set the gun down and looked over. Thorn was leaning against the wall by the door. She hadn't even heard him come in.
"Hey," Robert grinned, going over to him. The two clapped hands. "How are you?"
Thorn shrugged. "Better. I don't know where I'd be without Mark though."

Pink LED Dome Lights Splash of Color
Did you know that you can get all sorts of colors for interior lights? You're not just limited to the xenon white color as an LED upgrade. There are all sorts of colors manufactured for LED interior lights, even pink lights for the ladies! Of course, this doesn't mean that only the girls can get pink LED lights either. This just goes to show that you can really customize your car into whatever you like to make it your own personal statement.

SPY SHOT: Future Car Acura NSX
Based on these new spy shot photos, it looks like the future car Acura NSX is back. While it will still bear the Honda name in most countries, the new NSX has tons of different colors, badging, and grilles for a more fierce and aggressive look. The shape of the new NSX is visibly evolving with extra sculpting given for the doors and a really nice side intake. This NSX will also get a really nice LED treatment, just like many Acura models are equipped with a higher end lighting system.
What's a mystery is the car's hood vents because it's so carefully covered under all of that camo wrap but it should be pretty impressive. The price tag on this new NSX is sure to be over six-figures, giving it some credibility when it asserts its status as a luxury brand. The NSX will have a dual-clutch automatic transmission with a hybrid powertrain V-6 engine.
How to Install LED Interior Kit on a BMW

If you're a beginner when it comes to car mods, this installation is perfect for you. This is a great way to upgrade your ride with a new crisp looking LED Interior with new map lights and dome lights.
One of our customers installed this LED Interior Kit on a 2004 BMW 325ci and as you will see, the installation process is pretty straightforward and he got a whole new look without putting in too much effort.
1. Use a pry tool to pop out the plastic lens cover.

First up, an apology:
I'm sorry that I took so long to complete this story. Everything worked against me to prevent me from finishing chapter two—my time, my health, and even my computer. I was on the last few paragraphs when I tried to save the document, but the save failed. I later found out the folder itself was corrupted, which was why I had so much trouble. (Now, I've taken to copying what I've written so far before saving. Annoying, but it works.) I had to rewrite the chapter amidst a headache and a cold, combined with plenty of tissues. The muses abandoned me during the holidays, and I felt like I was pushing myself to write—the story didn't seem as good as when I had inspiration. So I waited until I was back in the mood before picking this up once again. I will admit it was a case of writer's block, and I've kicking away at it to the best of my abilities.
Then, I had to pack…and clear a few things up before my departure. Packing at times is fun, but it was an annoyance at that moment. There are times when I was ready to bang my head against the table in frustration and scream bloody murder. December this year wasn't exactly the best for me.
I had meant to finish this before leaving...but things did not work out that way.
When I finally was able to settle down and write, my laptop decided it was a good time to die...I feared a virus, but it only turned out that the problem was the laptop itself (apparently the motherboard was faulty). Thus I now type on my father's 6-by-9 laptop, which is terribly cramped... -sigh- Technology hates me.
I had hoped to upload this earlier, but poor Internet connection stopped me.
Chapter Two is finally completed and here for you to read. :)
TO MY FELLOW EACIANS: Kill me if you wish because of my delaying:) Thanks go to Oxpecker, Starlight9, Kalisona, ArodieltheElfofRohan, Fair Rider, Sivan Shemesh, and all other EACians for their patience. I'm very apt at procrastinating, I fear.
A/N: Thanks for Starlight9 for pointing out a few errors. I appreciate it. :)
Chapter Two
Take my hand,
Lead me on,
Help me stand;
I am tired,
I am weak,
I am worn;
Thru the storm,
Thru the night,
Lead me on to the light,
Take my hand,
Lead me home.
When my way grows drear,
Linger near;
When my life is almost gone,
Hear my cry,
Hear my call,
Hold my hand lest I fall;
Take my hand,
Lead me home.
Elrond's head snapped up, eyes searching the room. He could swear he had just heard something move. Rising from his seat, he heard it again. The sound of low voices in the hallway reached his ears, and he stepped out, knowing very well to whom the voices belonged to.
"They are all asleep. Even Ada."
"And what if he awakes and finds us gone?"
"He then knows we went after Estel."
"Adar will not be happy when he finds out."
"No, I will not be happy." Elrond easily hid his smile when both of his sons half-jumped when they heard him. He was relieved, though that Elladan did not drop the lighted lantern he was holding.
"We can not just sit here, waiting," Elladan began.
"I know," Elrond replied. "That is why I plan to go with the two of you." This time, he could not help but smile when his son gaped at him. "Now, if the two of you would wait for me…" He turned to go up the stairs.
Elrohir glanced at his brother, who merely shrugged. "If Ada wants to come, he can do so."
Elrond stepped out of his room, adjusting the clasp of his dark cloak. As he reached the stairs, a soft voice stopped. "Elrond."
He turned. "Gilraen?" He had thought her asleep by now.
The lady stood in the doorway of her room, holding a candle between her hands. The light flickered, but was sufficient enough to show her drawn, worried face. "You are going out to seek for him?"
"Aye," He gave her a reassuring smile. "It will be well."
"Just bring him home, Elrond," she whispered, echoing the exact words Elrond had only a few hours ago. "Bring him home."
"We will, my lady." He rested his hand on her shoulder and gave it a squeeze. "This I promise to you." With that, he left with his sons, going out into the storm of the night. All three of both pulled their hoods up. Elrond slowly breathed out, watching his breath come out in a puff of white.
"Should we take the horses?" Elladan inquired.
"The storm may frighten them, though." Elrohir tugged at his cloak. "Ugh, I already feel drenched."
"You sound as bad as Estel."
"I can understand why—the sensation of being wet is not nice." Elrohir muttered. "Ada?" He looked at the elder peredhel in question.
Their father was silent for a moment. "I agree with you, Elrohir." He finally said. "We will walk."
Aragorn wiped his face with his fingers. Water mixed with blood ran down his palm. Where had the latter come from? Somewhere, in the back of his mind, he vaguely remembered a tree branch catching across his forehead when he was still running. At least my eyes were spared, he thought wearily. At least it is only a small scratch, really.
He kept his eyes on the ground, trying to avoid falling on his face. He was failing rather miserably. The man tripped over something and caught himself just in time. A wave of dizziness assaulted him, and he stumbled sideways, falling against the trunk of a tree with a stifled cry of pain. Aragorn blinked; an effort to clear his vision. He pressed a hand to his head, a soft moan escaping his lips.
Perhaps he had the will to go on, but his body was not as inclined to listen to his mind. Every one of his injuries, from the broken arm to his ribs to the pain building his head, were clamoring for his attention—attention he could not give at the moment. The man pushed himself away from the tree and resumed walking. Was he even going in the right direction? Without the guidance of the stars, he was lost in this rain, stumbling blindly in the darkness.
A coughing fit suddenly seized him. Helpless, he sank to the ground, his good arm pressed against his ribs. His eyes were squeezed shut as he endeavored to cope with the flaring pain. Valar, it hurt so much!
After several agonizing seconds, he could finally draw air again. Breathing in a somewhat ragged cadence, he rested on his hands and knees for a moment. Grey eyes looked dully at the mud and dirt below, not really seeing any of it.
How long before his vigor gave way? Before his endurance finally snapped? Before his grasp on hope failed and he despaired?
Dirt-crusted fingers scraped against earth as he tried to stand. Perhaps in a few hours he would no longer be able to go one, but no ever would he abandon hope. He would live to see his home again. His eyes shone with a light as he pushed himself up and once again up on his feet. No doubt could overcome his will to return.
But if only…he did not feel so alone on this journey. Aragorn wished he was in the safety of Imladris at this moment, instead of feeling bewildered and afraid. Yes, afraid. Afraid that he would disappoint his family if he did not return soon. He knew they must be worried.
Crossing his arms, he trudged on, his thoughts ever straying toward his home.
Elladan stepped into a particularly deep puddle. With a muttered curse he pulled his boot out, spraying the water about him.
"Was that really necessary, Elladan?" Elrond softly questioned.
"I suppose not," his eldest son reluctantly replied. His father always had a way of making him feel younger than he truly was.
"You should hear him when you are not around." Elrohir commented, ignoring the look Elladan was giving him.
"Gwarth," the twin said under his breath. "You are always supposed to agree with me, not side with Ada."
"Maybe, but Estel picks it up from you." The other nonchalantly answered. "That is why Ada dislikes it so much." He blew a wet strand of hair off his face, wrinkling his nose as he did. There were only a few things on Arda that sincerely annoyed him. One was the Orcs, and another was walking in the rain and getting drenched. However did humans survive this, he would never know. "At least you do not corrupt him." he added as an afterthought.
Peeved, his brother replied shortly, "Of course I do not. I teach him and protect him."
"Estel says you mother him."
"He is wrong in saying that."
"I beg to differ. You really do fuss over him." Elrohir gave his twin an apologetic look. "You fuss over everyone." He moved away, expecting the other to retaliate.
But Elladan did not laugh, or retort. Instead, he looked troubled. "Brother, the reason I worry about him so often is because in the past, I have already failed so many time to save those that I love."
"Avo pedo ha, muindor." he interrupted, his grey eyes troubled. "I know what you will say. You will tell me that it was none of my fault." He looked away. "But it is. And I cannot—" His fist tightened on the lantern he held. "—bear the thought of him, of Estel, lost out here in this Valar-forsaken weather, all by himself. What if he already—"
"Daro." Elrond's voice was quiet but commanding. His gaze searched for his son's eyes. "Iôn nîn, your brother is right in assuring you it was not your doing."
Elladan did not answer; he had heard this before from nearly everyone—his father, Elrohir, Erestor, Glorfindel, and even from his mother before she sailed…
The elder half-elf knew what his son was thinking. How could he not? He was a father and husband, and knew the pain of losing loved ones and of keeping lonely vigils in the night. "You cannot always shelter him," he said quietly, "For his time will come, and he must walk a road where we cannot follow."
His son looked away. That was it, the one thing he had always loathed. Aragorn would always be Estel to him, that careless, foolish child who was more endearing than any of the other heirs of Isildur he had met. Estel, with his youthful ways and a personality that made it hard for anyone not to like him. But never was he Aragorn, Heir of Isildur. Not yet…
"He is not ready." Elladan gritted his teeth, keeping his eyes on the road ahead of them.
"Then when will he be?" Elrond asked. "He does not have the long life of the Eldar."
"I know that, Adar!" The other finally turned to look at his father, eyes glittering from the faint lantern light. "I have known it for a long time now, and I also know that you are right. But—" his voice trailed off. "I think he will never be ready. A part of me wishes…that day will never come."
A sigh. "Every time he comes back to us, with those injuries of his, I take one look at his eyes, so full of pain and fear, and then I cannot let him go out again on his own." Elladan finished. His gaze sought his father's. "Why did you let him go so soon?"
Elrond smiled a little. "Because now is the time. He is ready, and willing to take upon the duties of a ranger of the North." He paused for a moment to let the words hang in the misty air. "You say that we cannot always protect him, and that is true." He continued, directing his last statement to Elladan, eyes piercing. "But we will be there for him when he comes home."
The elder twin slowly nodded. "I understand," he replied, voice soft and filled with heartache. "But that does not ease my worry for him." He turned his face upward, letting the droplets of rain roll down his face. I will find you, gwador.
"Gil-galad né Eldaran, hó së nyellor lindar nairavë…"
Aragorn softly said the words, almost distractedly as he continued to trudge. At least, he was trying his best in trying to recite a lay. Because his throat hurt too much for singing, this was the only way he could think to keep his mind off the sound of the incessant rain. But his mind was dull, and it took him some time to get just the first line right. He sighed softly to himself, frowning.
"…I tell i Arda né vanima ar ranya, Orontillor…" he paused, "Orontillor Eärenna…" He paused, trying to remember. "Macilerya né anda ar ehtirya laica; Cassarya calima cenna oarello…" He stumbled, nearly crashing into a tree. With a muttered curse, Aragorn regained his footing as he himself against the rough bark of the trunk. Rubbing the back of his neck with a hand that felt as if it were made of ice, he glanced almost despairingly about his surroundings.
Suddenly, he blinked. Was that a light he saw in the distance? As best he could, the man squinted, trying to focus on the blurry image in front of him. The light was not stationery, but swung from side to side in a gentle motion. He still could not see who was holding the light, though. Aragorn pushed himself off, staggering and weaving through the trees as he headed for the bright glow. As he drew nearer, he could make out three figures, but was only able to see the face of one. Yet it was one he knew dearly well. "El?" he whispered, a look of amazement and surprise entering his face.
"Estel?" The half-elf pushed the hood away from his face as he nearly dropped the lantern. He began running towards the man, who had stopped.
Aragorn felt numb with relief as he slowly exhaled, sinking to the ground. Elladan was there before he fell over with exhaustion. The man blinked up at his brother. "…should be at home, Ell'dan," he slurred.
"As should you," Elrohir replied, kneeling down next to the two of them. "What delayed you this time, brother?"
"Orcs…" Aragorn briefly closed his eyes, only opening them again when he felt a cool hand rest against his forehead. "Ada?"
"Aye, Estel. I am here."
"Good." With a small smile, he let himself slip into unconsciousness.
"Estel?" Elladan tightened his grip, bending close, ready to wake him.
"No, let him rest for now," Elrond looked up at the sky. "I can do nothing in such wet conditions, and it will be easier to take him back like this." He took Aragorn from his eldest. "His injuries are not so bad that they are life-threatening, but they will keep him off his feet for a few weeks." The elf lord glanced up at the sky. "The sooner we get home that better."
"Wait a moment." Elladan shrugged his cloak off and covered his brother well. His face was grim. "All right, let us leave."
Elrond stood to his feet, and they began the walk back home. He blew a wet strand of hair off his cheek, bending forward slightly under Aragorn's weight as he glanced down at his son. A little while longer, penneth.
Gilraen had left her room, wandering down into the room that Elrond had occupied only some time ago. Her arms were crossed; her hands formed into fists as she bit her lip and paced. She frequently glanced out the large windows of the room, eyes wide and filled with anxiety.
About two hours had passed since Elrond and his sons had left. Two agonizingly long hours. If she had to wait another hour, perhaps she would go out. She let out a soft sigh. Her son never seemed to grasp the importance of time. As a child, he was always late to meals and sessions with his tutor. The only time he was not late was when he was in weapons' training.
She shook her head, knowing that Aragorn was not delaying on purpose this time. He knew how she would fret, and rightfully so. For what mother would not be concerned about the wellbeing of her children? Until the day she died, she would always worry about her son.
The woman chanced a glance out of the window. Seeing two lights bobbing in the gloom of night, her breathing quickened. They were back, and hopefully, with Aragorn. Snatching up the candle she had brought with her from her bedroom, Gilraen left the confines of the room and headed for the main entryway of Rivendell.
The doors were opened just as she reached it. One twin—she could not tell which in the dim lighting—stepped in dripping wet. He pulled his hood away from his face, and Gilraen could see who he was. "Elrohir, did you—"
"Aye, we did," he gently interrupted. "And I think he will be fine."
"You think?" Her voice grew stiff.
The peredhel calmly unclasped his brooch, letting the cloak drop down. "Provided that he stays home and rests." he finished, glancing backwards at his brother, who had come in raking his hand through his hair and murmuring something about a hot bath. "Did you hang up your lantern?"
"Yes, and I have—" Gilraen pushed past them both, and nearly bumped into Elrond. The elf-lord stepped back a pace. "He sleeps, my lady."
"And will he be all right?" Her eyes sought that of the peredhel's. "He will heal?"
He smiled down at her. "In time."
She reached out a hand, brushing away the hair that fell into Aragorn's pale face. "Estel? Can you hear me?" she whispered. "You can wake up now." Her fingers snagged in a tangle, and she pulled away, letting her hand rest against his cheek. "Iôn nîn?"
Grey eyes blinked up at her, slightly glazed with both sickness and sleep. "Mother?" His hand reached up to cover that of the other's. A confused frown crossed his features. "Was I not outside, battling for my life?" He glanced up to catch his father's eyes. "Must be dreaming."
"You do not, Estel," Elrond softly answered. "You are home, hên vuin nîn, where you belong." His voice was gentle as he carried his youngest toward the stairs. Gilraen gave him one final kiss to his forehead. "I will join you in minute," she said before hurrying up the stairs ahead of them. "Do not think you are not getting out a lecture, my son."
If he could've, he would have snorted. "No, I would be surprised if you did not, Naneth," he replied under his breath. He bit his lip when Elrond gently shifted him.
"Are you well?"
"Enough. It hurts less than when I was outside, on my own..." His voice trailed off a bit before he continued. "Thinking I was going to die out there." His fingers, though bruised and scratched, still managed to grip the sleeve of Elrond's tunic with some strength. "But I did not."
Even as he smiled up at the half-elf, Aragorn's eyes blurred with tears, yet these were happy ones. "Hannad, Ada," he said faintly. "For coming for me...for bringing me home..."
"Shh," Elrond pressed a finger against his son's lips. "There is not need to thank me." They reached the top of the stairs, and he turned the corners that would lead to Aragorn's room. "Remember, Estel," he said, gently releasing the man's grip on his sleeve. "I will always be there to take your hand, and lead you home, where ever home may be."
Aragorn relaxed. He knew he would not be going anywhere on his own for a long time, he did not mind at all. He let out a contented sigh. He was among his family, among those he loved, and it was enough.
Hope cannot be seen or heard,
Nor tasted, smelled, and felt.
Yet it is still there,
Ever guiding and ever alight.
It encourages the hearts of many,
Touches many lives,
And dwells in the hearts of others;
Always there,
Yet always unseen.
The End

A/N: Well, that's it. It has turned out longer than I liked it to be, and I was tempted to split this into two more chapters. But I didn't. :)
A/N #2: Song featured at the beginning is a hymn titled "Precious Lord, Take My Hand" by Thomas A. Dorsey. It has been slightly modified. It's not mine. But the untitled poem at the end of the story belongs to me.
Language Notes:
The lay recited by Aragorn in this fic came from the Fellowship of the Ring, and is recited by Samwise Gamgee. And no, I didn't do the translating. (It's a headache just to type Quenya! Maybe one day I'll find the patience to properly devote time to Tolkien's languages...) Translation found as a PDF file from the website Ambar-Eldaron(It's in French, though. I was also informed that the translation may not be the best, because it came from a French version of The Fellowship of the Ring. But really, since Bilbo translated it from Quenya, perhaps his was not the best one to be found. I think Aragorn might've done it better, having lived in Rivendell until he was twenty. But that's only my opinion, and because I dearly love all things Aragorn. -Grin-). Link given by Ederchil over at Peth Pêd Peth, the Merin Essi ar Quenteli forum.
Why did I use Quenya? To quote the book:
'He did not make it up,' said Strider. 'It is part of the lay that is called The Fall of Gil-galad, which is in an ancient tongue. Bilbo must have translated it. I never knew that.' I'm assuming the ancient tongue refers to Quenya.
All that we know of The Fall of Gil-galad:
Gil-galad was an Elven-king,
Of him the harpers sadly sing:
The last whose realm was fair and free,
Between the Mountains and the Sea
His sword was long, his lance was keen,
shining helm afar was seen;
the countless stars of heaven's field
were mirrored in his silver shield.
long ago he rode away,
and where he dwelleth none can say;
for into darkness fell his star
In Mordor where the shadows are.
I used the only first six lines.
Last A/N:
Farewell until we meet again, and thank you for reading and bearing with all my delaying!
—Calenlass Greenleaf1

Yes. Theres a little math and science involved that i dont have memorized, but the bare minimum would be a cheap ebay DMM chip (an LCD that reads voltage) tied in parallel with the output of a potentiometer. I would use the -12 as your low potential and +12 as your high, giving you adjustability up to 24v. Hope that helps!
Yes. If you only need that voltage, i would use a potentiometer and hook the load (your saw) up to the output. Adjust the potentiometer until you are delivering 18v under load. Then measure the pot and replace it with resistors totaling the same (within 5%) resistance level. The current demands might be higher with that device, so don't be surprised if you smoke the supply.
Good to hear that you got it sorted out.
Thanks!View Instructable »
Very cool. I took a different approach with mine, but i like your use of the wheel and tire as the base. Thats a great way to prevent damage to the floor.View Instructable »
I love it! It's simple, cute, and functional. I was going to make recessed shelving for my bathroom, but i may just build a variation of your design instead. Great work!View Instructable »

NEW YORK (AP) — Just when it seemed the Yankees' latest dynasty was crumbling, New York's dormant offense awoke in time to tie the AL championship series at a game apiece. Bernie Williams ended a record-tying, 21-inning scoreless streak with an RBI single that sparked a seven-run eighth inning, and New York rallied past the Seattle Mariners 7-1 Wednesday. Orlando Hernandez, pitching on his birthday, allowed six hits and struck out seven in eight innings. It seemed like the Yankees' hopes for a third straight World Series title were fading away. Then suddenly, New York went 8-for-8 to start the eighth inning. The eight hits were an ALCS record and the most in an inning for the Yankees since June 29 at Detroit. Seattle's bullpen got blown apart, wasting six shutout innings by starter John Halama. David Justice, started the big inning with a double to left-center that hit less than a foot from the top of the wall. Williams slapped a single to center off Arthur Rhodes and Tino Martinez followed with a sinking liner to left for a single that allowed Williams to take second.

District 27-4A kicks off district play this Friday with New Braunfels (3-2) hosting Fredericksburg (5-0), Smithson Valley (4-1) entertaining Boerne (5-0) and Canyon (0-5) travelling to Kerrville Tivy (5-0). "The kids are responding really well and they know it means a lot to start district," New Braunfels head coach Rick Rhoades said. "This is where the games start counting. Our practices are showing that. We've had two of our better practices this year on Monday and Tuesday." If any team is aware that only district games count towards making the AT rf* playoffs, it's Canyon, which suffered five tough losses in non-district play. "We're looking at it as the second part of the season," Wright said. "We've gotten better each week through the first half of the season and See DISTRICTS Ex-Giant ready to pay back old team BY JAIME ARON AP Sports Writer IRVING — Philippi Sparks was two games into his NFL career when he learned how badly the New York Giants want to beat the Dallas Cowboys. The rookie cornerback was walking off the field at Giants Stadium following a 34-28 loss to Dallas when teammate Leonard Marshall put an arm around Sparks and aimed the other at the scoreboard. "You see that?" Marshall said sternly. "Don't you ever let it happen again. Take it personally." Sparks told that story Wednesday while sitting in front of his locker at Cowboys headquarters. He couldn't help but smile as he thought about the rivalry he'll experience from this side for the first time on Sunday. "Ever since then," he continued, "I've known it was a love-hate relationship between Dallas and New York." The hate part is understood. This time, the love is coming from Sparks, who fondly recalls his eight seasons with the Giants even though he was not re-signed after last season. "They made a business decision," Sparks said. "No one left on bad terms." The Cowboys were interested in him early in the summer, but instead signed Ryan McNeil and drafted three comerbacks. Sparks was still unsigned when two of the rookies got hurt and the third was struggling. So Sparks was signed just before the opener. He backed up fourth-round pick Kareem Larrimore for the first four games, then became the starter in the last game against Carolina. Dallas won 16-13 and teammates credited Sparks with providing stability. "Any time you have four veterans in the secondary, things are going to be better," said safety Darren Woodson, who played college ball with Sparks at Arizona State. Sparks has been with the Cowboy s (2-3) for less than two months, but didn't need long to See EX-GIANT/2B CAMPO Sometimes it hurts to be a Big 12 Conference fan in Texas As a college football fan living in the state of Texas, my ego took quite a punch in the eye this past weekend with w inless Colorado sticking it to the Aggies in front of their home crowd in College Station (first home loss in 22 games) and Oklahoma whipping the Longhorns almost to the point of extinction. Baylor also lost, but at least it was to fellow Texans Texas Tech. All of a sudden the best team in Texas looks to be TCU. The 17th-ranked Homed Frogs certainly have the best running back in the country in LaDainian Tomlinson who rushed for 294 yards (highest in the country this season) against Hawaii on Saturday. What can you say about Texas? Obviously the hype and the high preseason ranking came perhaps a year early. Maybe when quarterback Major Applewhite is a senior, Chris Simms has Bryan Adams transferred, all the nonsense about two starting quarterbacks is ancient history, Victor Ike is the starting tailback and the defense is a little wiser and more experienced, then Texas can start talking about contending for national. This season, it would now be somewhat of shocker if the Horns won the conference title. Texas still has a conference scheduled that does not include Nebraska or Kansas State, but now that game at Colorado this Saturday doesn't look so easy. Texas Tech will be smiling a little wider come Nov. 4. Not to mention the Aggies were expecting to grill Longhorn fajitas on No. 24 before the season even started. Will a 6-5 season turn up the heat on head coach Mack Brown? Maybe a little. Just to be safe, if you're a die hard Texas fan, I would start looking into hotel availability in Shreveport, La. COLORADO 30, TEXAS 20 I want to point out that the Adams household is in turmoil this week. Papa Adams, better known as Papa Husker, has been talking smack all week to junior Red Raider. But, Papa Husker is the worst smack-talker in the state of Texas. He likes to compare academic all-Americans and ramble on about Husker teams of the past. Even though Nebraska is ranked No. I in the nation and Texas Tech lost to unranked Texas A&M and barely beat unrespected North Texas, I actually have Papa Husker, and a few relatives in Nebraska, thinking the Red Raiders might win this one. Nebraska's defense is weak against the pass and Tech does throw the ball a lot, but the Raiders average less than IO yards a pass (106th in the nation) and it is likely quarterback Kliff Kingsbury will suffer more turf bums than he is used to, courtesy of Nebraska's awesome defensive front. NEBRASKA 26, TEXAS TECH 21 lf the Aggies went to the doctor about their upset stomachs after the Joss to Colorado, I'm sure the doctor prescribed a heavy dose of Baylor.

THE major issue punters will have to factor in this weekend are the FA Cup first-round matches.
League One, League Two and National League sides are joined by extreme minnows such as Salford City, FC United and Didcot Town, the lowest-ranked team left in the tournament.
As you know I've been studying stats in the RFO and there's a good article from Kevin Pullein pointing out goals is the way to go in the first round. We probably knew that but he backs it with stats including the fact first-round games have averaged three goals a game from 1995 up to last season.
That compares to 2.8 for rounds two to four and 2.7 for rounds five and six. He also points out the highest scores came not surprisingly when League One sides entertain non-league teams. The average rises to 3.7 goals and away from home it's 3.3.
Sheffield Utd, Port Vale, Millwall, Doncaster and Crewe are the League One sides at home to non-league opposition this weekend while Barnsley, Bradford, Chesterfield, Colchester and Shrewsbury are on their travels. Statistically these are the games you should focus on for goals and I'll post an over 2.5 goals FA Cup accumulator on Friday night.
As far as WDW bets I've put together my Saturday Super Single shortlist. This is taken from my first serious look at the card and checking only form and stats – not team news.
All selections are close to or above evens – and comments on why sides should be in or out will be appreciated as well as your own selections.

New Delhi, Oct.20 : Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore on Tuesday said the government will make all arrangements to see that Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) students complete their courses on time.
"This was the fifth meeting with the FTII students. Many complex issues were highlighted during this meeting, like how the 2008 batch has not been able to finish its course, why the 2011 batch has been able to complete one year only and they still have two more years to complete," Rathore told media here.
"We have tried to make such engagements with the students where we have to hire more studios, make the Doordarshan studios in Mumbai available to them. The most important thing is that students should complete their course, get their diplomas and pass out," he added.
"I am sure that with the kind of interaction we had today, the complex and serious problems of the students and the institute will be solved," he further said.
The latest meeting follows several rounds of talks between the students and the Information and Broadcasting Ministry officials to break the deadlock at the Pune based premier film institute. (ANI)

Love it!
I really like this cream and so does my skin. It seems identical to a premium brand one that I sometimes use, so from now on I'm sticking to this! Not too heavy but nicely moisturising with a pleasant smell and texture.

Cheap and cheerful
Lovely velvety texture, not greasy and good moisturising night cream for my combination skin. No break outs. Scent okayish. Bought as cheaper alternative to premium brand...didin't notice a big difference - good old Olay.

The declared Wanted by the anti-graft agency, the Economic And Financial Crime Commission, EFCC, former Comptroller-General of the Nigerian Customs, Abdullahi Inde Dikko has finally confessed the ownership of $50 million Dubai properties as he returns, Nigeria anti-corruption investigators currently in discussions with him, Sahara Reporters says
Mr. Dikko returned to Nigeria looking gaunt and frail after he was declared wanted by the Nigeria's Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), reportedly suffering from prostate cancer said to be at the terminal stage. Investigators said Dikko has vehemently denied owning properties anywhere else in the world except a huge house in Abuja and a multi-billion Naira farm in his home state of Katsina.
A source involved in the negotiations said Dikko was not arrested and hurled into detention because the authorities are worried that if harshly treated, he might die in detention, making it harder to recover his assets from Dubai.
It would be recalled that a few years ago, this website called Mr. Dikko a certificate forger, and ran several stories to that effect.

I PUT up just one tip on Thursday and happily it was one winner – although both matches made me sweat. The 7-5 double was Monaco not to lose – and they came back from 2-0 down at Montpellier to win – and both to score at Huddersfield which landed with a late home equaliser.
As is usual at this time of the week I'm busy with my weekend columns and selections so I have limited time to look at Friday's fixtures.
The one English game is the London derby between Fulham and QPR and three stats suggests goals. All Fulham games – barring the midweek Capital One Cup loss to Stoke – have featured both scoring while Rangers are joint highest scorers in the division and have conceded 13 in eight games too. Both to score pays 13-20 at McBookie and BetVictor and over 2.5 goals is 19-20 at bet365.
The latter could be the better option with the last two meetings at Craven Cottage going over 4.5 goals – 3-2 and 6-0 Fulham.
In the Scottish Championship Falkirk face Queen of the South and again both to score could be the shout, this time at 3-4 with BetVictor and McBookie.
I don't know how scarred Falkirk will be by their embarrassing 7-0 League Cup defeat to Ross County but Queens have a poor record at the Falkirk Stadium, drawing two and losing five of their last seven.
Before Tuesday five of Falkirk's last six had saw both score but for Queens it's two out of four. However, both have been on target in four of the last five meetings in Falkirk.
On the continent Valencia should beat Granada but are of course short at around 1-2 as are Porto at Moreirense while Cologne are slight favourites at home Bundesliga new boys Ingolstadt. A draw at Reims-Lille wouldn't be a huge surprise – four of Lille's last five have been stalemates.
Elsewhere we have the usual French and Dutch lower-league games where punters target goals and recently I've noticed plenty of overs in Bundesliga II as well as the Austrian top flight to hopefully we'll some tips for those games.
Fans of Irish and Welsh matches usually put up comments so keep an eye on the thread for some top tips from the regulars.
I didn't get a chance to put up tips late afternoon with the site being done so let's hope what I planned isn't a winner. We've had problems outwith our control and hopefully they'll not be repeated over the weekend.

Yet inexplicably, the world's official handicappers were unexcited by what to all other eyes made 2000 a vintage year for the sport.
They must have missed Dubai Millennium's awesome Dubai World Cup and Prince Of Wales's Stakes victories. They surely forgot Sinndar became the first horse to win the Derby, Irish Derby and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. Montjeu's King George VI and the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Stakes stroll evidently didn't register.
Five successive Group One wins and a brave second on his dirt debut in the Breeders' Cup Classic for Giant's Causeway failed to rouse them. Scintillating acceleration from King's Best in the 2,000 Guineas, Kalanisi grabbing the Breeders' Cup Turf, Observatory, Petrushka, the promise of Nayef - all this is apparently commonplace.
Don't you believe it. 2001 has its work cut out to match such brilliance and drama. But there are seeds of hope.
Kalanisi and Petrushka remain in training with Sir Michael Stoute, who also has an enviable band of three-year-olds. If retaining his championship title, it would be his seventh in total.
But, since moving to Robert Sangster's Manton complex while maintaining links with the Maktoum family, John Gosden has emerged as a genuine title contender. A raft of Classic entries suggests great strength in depth. He also houses top miler Observatory and smart Valentino.
Last season was unusually quiet for Saeed bin Suroor and Henry Cecil. They will expect better. Handlers keen to carry on where they left off last year include Irishman John Oxx, who trained Sinndar, and Amanda Perrett, who stepped out of the shadow of father Guy Harwood.
Deprived in part last term of the talents of past champions Frankie Dettori, due to his plane crash, and Kieren Fallon, after a fall at Royal Ascot, we relished Kevin Darley's first jockeys' title. He will find following up a much sterner test.
Crystal Music(3-y-o filly, trainer: John Gosden).
Unbeaten juvenile season culminated in impressive Group One win at Ascot. Boasts top-class mix of speed and stamina. More precocious than her illustrious family. Attempts to emulate former stablemate Lahan in the 1,000 Guineas. Starts in the Fred Darling. May opt for Prix de Diane over the Oaks, with 10 furlongs her optimum trip.
Duke of Modena(4-y-o gelding, trainer: Toby Balding).
Caught the eye against older rivals when fourth in Ascot's Tote International and then winning valuable seven-furlong event at the same track in September. Strengthened up well. Selective campaign of top handicaps at up to a mile, chiefly the Victoria Cup at favourite Ascot. Returns at Newmarket's Craven meeting. Prefers cut in the ground.
Frenchman's Bay(3-y-o colt, trainer: Roger Charlton).
Impressed on sole juvenile start when, thrown into Group Three class, he ran freely but looked the winner until faltering in the final furlong. Returns in the Greenham, unless given a maiden sharpener beforehand. Handles soft ground, so may opt for the French Guineas. Now a heavy-topped horse, but sprinting very much Plan B.
Kier Park(4-y-o colt, trainer: Michael Jarvis).
Looked set for profitable season when defying his relative youth to finish a neck second to Pipalong in the Palace House Stakes last May. But split a pastern later that month and retired for the year. His conqueror went on to frank the form with Group One success. Returns at Nottingham on 2 April as prep for top-class sprint campaign.
Judicious(4-y-o colt, trainer: Geoff Wragg).
Progressive last season and can improve further aged four. Best efforts final two starts when second, conceding lumps of weight to Wilemmgeo at Pontefract and then to elder rival Scene at Newmarket. Needs testing seven furlongs or a mile. Runs in the Lincoln at Doncaster this Saturday, if making the cut. Benefits from shrewd handling.
Nayef(3-y-o colt, trainer: Marcus Tregoning).
No prizes for originality here, but impossible to fault on pedigree and achievements. A half-brother to the great Nashwan, aims to repeat his Guineas-Derby double at least. Showed both class and tenacity in an unbeaten but low-key juvenile campaign. Form rock solid. Muscled up during uninterrupted winter preparation.
Observatory(4-y-o colt, trainer: John Gosden).
Never got the credit he deserved when spoiling Giant's Causeway's attempt at a sixth straight Group One victory in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. Talent, not just clever tactics from champion jockey Kevin Darley, won the day. Lightly raced. Open to yet more improvement. Thrived this winter. Returns in Newbury's Lockinge Stakes.
Rudik(4-y-o gelding, trainer: David Nicholls).
Cast off for just 18,500gns from Sir Michael Stoute's yard. Ripe for transformation by new trainer, renowned for his ability to strike gold where others despaired. Gelded and lightly raced, an eyecatcher on all three starts last season. Poorly drawn twice. Can improve to match the best of his sprint stablemates.
Savoire Vivre(4-y-o colt, trainer: Saeed bin Suroor).
Godolphin's potential successor to Kayf Tara, who was a far more rounded horse than his dual champion stayers' title would suggest. Formerly trained by John Gosden, this statuesque colt needed time to develop and has run only twice, notably when scaring elder Murghem in a Newbury Group Two. Must make his mark on the Cup circuit.
Theatre Script(3-y-o colt, trainer: John Gosden).
This tall and leggy colt ran only once as a juvenile, overcoming extreme greenness to win a Doncaster maiden. Only autumn's soft ground prevented a shot at Group class - he needs good or faster. Progressed well over the winter. Has the Craven as his 2,000 Guineas prep. Also entered in the Derby, but 10 furlongs may be more his bag.
Water Jump(4-y-o colt, trainer: John Dunlop).
Lightly raced colt. Unable to build on good second to progressive Godolphin recruit Give The Slip at Royal Ascot due to health problems. Winner franked form, notably with Ebor success. Has blossomed under smooth preparation this winter. Open to improvement. Starts in top 12-furlong handicaps with view to Pattern company.
Wellbeing(4-y-o colt, trainer: Henry Cecil).
Failed to live up to his name last year when succumbing to his yard's general malaise. Yet still mustered fifth in the Derby, despite setbacks and inexperience. Progressed markedly to rout a Newmarket Listed event, suddenly revealing classy cruising speed to augment proven stamina. A leading contender for top middle-distance honours.
