text: Hi FriendsAs you know we've been dealing with Emily and her pain for some time now. It will be three years this July. Initial diagnosis - fibromyalgia. Second diagnosis - Lyme's disease. We've been seeing a doctor out of state who specializes in Lyme's disease. So far none of the treatments have done a thing. We continue to search for answers. Over this time we have gotten used to what normal pain is for Emily. The pain and the static in her ear have become her normal. It is yesterday and today though that she has developed a new pain in her stomach that has me concerned. It is almost noon and she is still sleeping. I've checked on her and when I awaken her she still has this stomach pain. When something new happens to Emily it sends me into hyper concerned mode for her. So if you would add her to your prayer list we would be ever so appreciative. Thank you all.

Cutting remarks ... Rose McGowan in Grindhouse
There is something very apt about Grindhouse being split in two following a poor opening weekend in the US. Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's double bill homage to exploitation movies is full of scenes of dismemberment. It is fitting that the film itself is now being sawn through the midriff.
Not that the lukewarm reception has dented festival programmers' reverence for Tarantino. His contribution, Death Proof, is strongly tipped for official selection (in a lengthened version) at this year's Cannes film festival. Rodriguez's film Planet Terror may join it on the Croisette too.
Whatever happens, you can't help but feel that the film - in its original three-hour version - is the victim of absurdly inflated expectations. Despite the success of Saw, Hostel et al, hardcore horror remains a niche market. If you managed to make $11.6 million (Grindhouse's opening US weekend gross) with a 180 minute version of something like Three On A Meat Hook, you would be acclaimed as a commercial genius. As trade paper Variety asked: "Did anyone besides Tarantino and Rodriguez ever really care about the grindhouse movie genre that much to begin with?"
Moreover, Grindhouse is the kind of film that can now be stretched and chopped every which way. Whatever its eventual fate in cinemas, its best scenes will no doubt soon be downloadable in bite-sized chunks while the DVD version (bound to be longer and crammed with out-takes and extras) will be coveted by the directors' sizeable army of fans.
There is nothing new in the way that Grindhouse is being mutated. Films have always been presented in different versions in different markets. This happens to art-house films as well as exploitation pics. Pascale Ferran's Lady Chatterley (released in the UK later this year having won five Cesars in France) exists both as a feature film and as a (much longer) mini-series. Paul Schrader's Dominion: Prequel To The Exorcist has its very own twin, Renny Harlin's Exorcist: The Beginning, an alternative version of the same film commissioned by Schrader's disgruntled producers Morgan Creek. When asked to make a feature version of his mini-series The Kingdom, Lars Von Trier famously made it longer, not shorter. Meanwhile, almost every documentary of note exists in two formats - an hour-long cut for the broadcasters who invariably paid for it to be made and a feature version that is offered to festivals.
The irony, in Rodriguez and Tarantino's case, is that Grindhouse's difficult birth will only add to its long-term cult appeal. If the Easter weekend holiday crowd had all liked and understood it, the real devotees of grindhouse cinema would have been suspicious and perhaps even dismissive. In this case, rejection can be worn almost as a badge of honour.

Day 2 Datong (B, L)
Sightseeing: Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, Hanging Monastery
After breakfast, we will drive to visit Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, also known as Fogong Temple and Seokga Pagoda is located in the Fogong Palace of Yingxian County and was built in Qingning years of Liao Dynasty (1056). It is the oldest, largest and the best preserved wooden tower building in China. Except the 4-meter-high stone ground, the wooden pagoda did not use any nail or rivet, all materials are wooden and connected by 50 kinds of base-mat. Every floor was supported by wooden pillars from inside and outside, about 60kinds of inclined beams, wooden stumps and short pillars were used between the wooden pillars, thus, formed a wooden structure of repeated beam. The pagoda is octagonal-shaped with six eaves and nine storeys.
Then we will have a visit to Hanging Monastery. It stands at the foot of Mt. Hengshan, 5 kilometers (3 miles) south of Hunyuan County, and 65 kilometers (40 miles) from downtown Datong City. Since it hangs on the west cliff of Jinxia Gorge more than 50 meters above the ground, it is called Hanging Monastery. It is an architectural wonder. A unique mechanical theory was applied to building the framework. Crossbeams were half-inserted into the rock as the foundation, while the rock in back became its support. Seen from below, Hanging Monastery appears to be a tumble-down castle in the air. Inside, Hanging Monastery provides the same scene as other temples.
Day 3 Datong / Xi'an (B, L)
Transfer via: overnight train No.2671 (17:58-9:14+1) –on our arrangement
Sightseeing: Huayan Monastery, The Yungang Grottoes, Datong Nine-Dragon Screen Wall
Today we will first visit the Shang Huayan Monastery. The Huayan Monasterycomplex is located on Daxi Street on the south western side of Datong City. There are two separate sections to the monastery, the upper one referred to as the Grand Hall housing five large Ming Dynasty Buddhas, and the lower section referred to as the Sutra Temple containing a library of some 18,000 volumes of Buddhist writings. Built during the Liao Dynasty (907 - 1125), the Huayan Monastery is the largest and best preserved monastery of the Liao Dynasty in existence in China. This monastery was built according to the Huayan Sutra Sect of the Huayan School and is unique in that it faces east instead of south.
Then we will head to the Yungang Grottoes. Yungang Grottoes, one of the three major cave clusters in China, punctuate the north cliff of Wuzhou Mountain, Datong. The area was excavated along the mountain, extending 1 km (0.62 miles) from east to west, revealing 53 caves and over 51,000 stone statues.
Finally visit the Datong Nine-Dragon Screen Wall, which is presently the oldest and largest glazed screen in China today. It is three times larger than that in Beihai Park, Beijing City. The screen, It is made up of 426 specially-fired glazed bricks, with a height of 8 meters (about 26 feet), 2.02 meters (6.6 feet) thick and 45.5 meters (149 feet) long. The Screen can be divided into three parts, the pedestal, body and roof.
In the afternoon, you will be transferred to Datong Railway Station and take overnight train for Xi'an.
Day 4 Xi'an (L)

In the morning we will go on to visit Bell Tower, which is the best-preserved and best-known one among many. The Bell Tower was built in 1384. In early mornings of ancient times it had the mission of ringing the bell and giving the correct time to the whole city, hence called "The Bell Tower". With magnificent carved beams and painted rafters, this classical building is truly elegant.
Then we will visit Great Mosque. The Mosque is located at the Huajue Lane in the center of the city, is the largest and one of the most important Islamic mosques in China. It will be interesting to see symbols of Islamic belief in this ancient city.
Our next stop will be Ancient City Wall. You will experience a half-hour's hike along the Ancient City Wall. It is the largest and best preserved present city wall in ancient China and is probably the best military battlement in the world. If you want to, you can rent a bicycle for a ride on top of the spectacular city wall. The wall was built in the Tang dynasty (618-907) and enlarged in the Ming dynasty (1368-1644).
Then we will move on to visit the Shaanxi History Museum. It is a magnificent architectural complex in the Tang Dynasty style. The Museum possesses a treasure of 113,000 historic and cultural artifacts unearthed in Shaanxi, and it covers an area of 1,100 square meters for exhibition.

Today you will experience the highlights of Xi'an. After breakfast, you will depart you're your hotel. You will visit the amazing 2000-year-old Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses. Regarded as the 8th Wonder of the World, the Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses are the most significant archeological excavations of the 20th century. Over 2,200 years ago, the first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, ordered the construction of a vast army of Terra-cotta warriors in search of immortality. After his early death they were buried with him to protect his empire.
Then we will visit Huaqing Hot Springs. The Tang Emperor Xuanzong used to spend his wintertime in company of his favorite concubine Yang Guifei here. Entering the West Gate of Huaqing Hot Springs, you will see the delightful gardens of Nine-Dragon Pool, the Lotus Flower Pool and the Frost Drifting Hall with Tang style
Another highlight today is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Situated in the south of Xi'an city, it is one of the main constructions in the famous Buddhist temple - Da-Ci-En Temple.

"Nobody has a perfect life. What you see on the screen is the best of the artists."
"She has over 200 trophies, and not one in our house; they're in storage."
Rene Angelil (born January 16, 1942 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada) was a Canadian singer and manager. Rene reportedly studied at College Saint-Viateur in Outremont, and College Andre-Grasset in Montreal. In the 1960s, Rene was a pop singer, forming The Baronets with two childhood friends. The group found success translating English pop hits into French for the French-speaking Quebecois. After the group broke up, Rene and friend Guy Cloutier began a career managing fellow artists. The two managed successful Quebec entertainers until they parted ways in 1981. At the end of 1980, Rene heard a demo tape from a then-twelve-year-old Celine Dion that reportedly moved Rene to tears. He mortgaged his home to fund her first record, which became a local number-one hit in Quebec. He would continue to be her manager until 2013.
Best Known For:
Rene Angelil is best known as the manager and husband of Celine Dion.
Personal Life:
Rene married his first wife, Denyse Duquette, in 1966. They had one son, Patrick, before they divorced in 1972. In 1974, he married singer Anne Renee, and together, they had a son, Jean Pierre, and Anne Marie. They divorced in 1980. In 1994, Rene and Celine were married. They have three sons together: Rene Charles and twins Eddy and Nelson. Rene was an avid gambler and a fan of NHL hockey. Rene was the target of an extortion attempt by Yun Kyeong Kwon Sung in 2003. In 2001, he and Celine filed a $5 million defamation lawsuit against Quebec tabloid over the story that they rented out a pool of Ceasars Palace for $5,000 so she could sunbathe topless and he could skinny dip. In 1992, Rene suffered a heart attack. In 1998, doctors removed a malignant tumor from his neck. Rene continued to combat throat cancer for the next two decades. Rene passed away on Jan. 14, 2016.

The bitterly cold weather that currently has much of the East Coast of America in its icy grip has demonstrated its chilling intensity by partially freezing Niagra Falls for the second time in just weeks.
Remarkable images taken of the falls at night show them partially frozen and lit up in an array of bright colours. The falls on the American side, which in combination with the Bridal Veil Falls usually see the passage of 567,811 Litres per second, have frozen amid temperatures of -1 degrees and lower.
Temperatures in the area fell to -23C with wind chill last week bringing the rushing waters to an icy standstill. The US East Coast is currently in the grip of a deadly winter storm that has seen near-record temperature lows, around 3,000 flights cancelled and the mass closure of schools and local government buildings.

It is the latest in a series of weather systems caused by a so-called 'polar vortex' which is pummelling the winter-weary eastern United States. A polar vortex is a rotating pool of cold, dense air held in place by strong winds.
This year the polar air has slipped through the belt that usually holds it in place. This has meant plummeting temperatures as far south in the US as Alabama.
Brian Hurley, a weather service meteorologist, said temperatures would be about 30 degrees Fahrenheit (15 degrees Celsius) below normal as a cold front settled in from Great Plains to the Atlantic coast.
"It's really, really cold, temperatures dropping into the teens (Fahrenheit, minus-7 to minus-10 Celsius) and the normal highs are around 50 (10C) at this point," he said.
At least four weather-related traffic deaths in Texas, Oklahoma and Tennessee were blamed on the wide-ranging storm over the weekend.Reuse content

The Second Incident
The girl stepped out of her hiding spot then looked to check it was clear and advanced steadily, hoping none of the children would notice or approach her. As she passed by the church she heard the girl crying. Ignoring this she continued with a bit more haste as low rumbling came from far away behind her.
Finally, after another half hours worth of speed walking she got to a bridge then sat on a pillar by the beginning on the arch and exhaled. From ahead rumbling sounded out. Children ran from an area holding bags close to their chest. She grabbed the edge then swung herself over and landed crouched on a stone shelf. As she ducked then advanced she got to under a slope. Using the poles to stabilize herself she held the gun and waited, looking to the water.
"Marie!" The boy, whose voice was familiar from the church yelled as a girl tripped. "No! Over here you beasts!" He yelled while waving his hand. As he ran away from the crowd with the group of creatures following him across the bridge the still group of children gathered moved to gather their stuff then continued to run. Once it went quiet she moved out of the hidden area then looked around and went around the back alleys to be more careful, sorting out her headphones as she had knocked them slightly while getting out of the area. After she got to a clear area she sat and had a capsule. She looked around then sighed a little as she watched the horizon. The grey ring above the buildings was more visible due to it being slightly darker.
"Can you see with those on?" A voice whispered.
Frozen with shock at the fact she hadn't even sensed the figure nor anyone's presence in the area, she remained still.
"Hello? Can you hear me?"
She looked then motioned for him to be quiet.
"Oh yeah I forgot." The boy whispered then sat beside her. "I'm Gary." The boy with short brown hair and brown eyes looked at her with his dirty face. His hands too were dirty but he didn't seem to smell bad. "Do you have a name?" He asked, still very quietly whispering.
She managed to nod before standing and running off. 'He's not just alive he's actually quite healthy. How come?' She thought as she ran towards a bridge.
Once there she slid into it and sat hugging her legs while looking out and listening. 'That was close.' She thought then closed her eyes and exhaled softly.

What it means to be noble.
Emperor is not the next in line
of titles after king
but a ruler that overseas an empire
encompassing many varied cultures
races of people
and a symphony of different tongues.
To be Emperor
One needs to exalt the Mother tongue
and glorify the Fatherland
Yet respect and acknowledge
conquered lands
to truly incorporate them into
Emperor, be flexible
in treating your people.
in diplomacy with other lesser neighbors.
And bring your wrath
in war.
feel the thirst
of worldly ambitions
Let it be quenched
only in victory.
Pay no mind to the rats that nibble
at the foot of your table.
Leave their extermination
to us, the ones behind the
And let all who envy you dare
to take you down.
But you are the
Morning Sun
and the
Evening Star.
Lead us,
Let not conspiracies
whisper in your ear.
Lead us, lead us
to a still more glorious

The Galaxy Note II has a lot going for it in terms of specs. It's a great Android phone, both in the sense of "large" and "impressive." It is available for $300 with a two-year contract from AT&T or Verizon, and for $370 from T-Mobile, with a contract. If a device that's bigger than a mobile phone and smaller than a tablet seems just right, then make a point of trying a Galaxy Note II at your favorite mobile carrier's retail store.

In Amphitheatrum Flaviam
An unexplained death threatens the opening of the Amphitheatre Flavia, the building that came to be known as the Coliseum.
Morning light-trickled down from the golden-tipped clouds that hung over the Amphitheatrum Flavium,known by some as the 'Coliseum'. It was meant to be a substantial building, built for the gladiatorial games that were to take place beginning the next week. Victorious, the magnificent structure stood welcoming strangers into the heart of Rome. And nothing was a stranger day than this morning, deceitful with her rose-cheeked hue. For though the night withheld its trickery, the daylight was there to reveal all.
A young man with hair the colour of buttercups, rather toned from his work, nearing his eighteenth, having just taken up his toga virilis for the rite of passage to becoming a man, Lucius, was making his way around the Coliseum; having been one of the builders, he knew his way, but he was still required to check the fittings and fixtures, making sure that everything was in order. The other labourers did not look highly upon Lucius. He had been born to a freedman and so had been classed as no more than a slave himself.
Lucius himself was the only worker to do the morning check on the Coliseum. It had been left up to him, but, in truth, he did not expect to have much to do today. He ducked under an archway and into the network of intricate tunnels that ran underneath the main structure, known as the hypogeum. Here, it had been decided, gladiatorial contestants would be kept before their trials, and animals would be kept in cages too. That was the reason that someone had to check each little section: to make sure that, whilst not being the most hospitable of places, it provided an instant access to the performers and their animal adversaries.
Lucius wove in and out of the twisted passages, keeping his eyes roving over the stone faces. He turned a corner, oblivious to the dark shape of where a boot poked out the corner. And then Lucius stopped.
Lucius choked back a scream. A man lay, just as if he had settled to sleep in the Coliseum, if not for his eyes open and glassy, his neck gleaming raw with a red line that seemed to protrude out of it.

Mozambique here we come
... how many cars and trucks did not have rear lights working and when you are travelling at 120kms/hour that is pretty scary, as is overtaking the massive double trucks at this speed or more. Derek and I sat in the back just waiting for an accident to happen. Fortunately Ced is a good driver and we eventually get back to the border. Leaving Mozambique is a much simpler process than arriving there and so we eventually arrive home after a very exciting ...
A more exotic place
... in India for instance. There were many old unfinished buildings set against brand new ones. Poverty sitting side by side with affluence. Next we went to the local market which compared to some we had seen was beautifully organised with very good fruit for sale. The fish stalls were a bit smelly but in that heat it wasn't surprising! Next stop was to cross the road and see the outside of the city hall which was apparently designed by Eiffel. Next to this was a ...
Maputo is a Rough Diamond
... as do the people.
My son, Randy, with World Vision, is doing his best to do what he/they can to change the lives of Mozamzibian residents. He won a grant this week for $1,000,000 to provide clean water to 60,000 students and their teachers.
I'm very proud of his and Sarah's efforts to make Mozambique a better place for everyone.
Here's to Randy and Sarah.

Just as I was thinking that this all wasn't so bad, a lady officer reviewed and stamped my passport, and gave me some general directions on where to go for visas since I was still in S.A. at that point. I have to admit that I got a slight bit nervous once I understood that I was now leaving S.A. and walking into who knows where/what. However, I definitely didn't ...

After hitting our local breakfast spot for some strong coffee we decided we would get better acquainted with local transport and hailed the next available 'Chapa' (16 seater Hi-Ace taxis).

BANGOR – Folks who gave donations to Manna Ministries this year will be happy to know that their gift brought some smiles to the area's needy citizens on Christmas.
More than a thousand people showed up at Manna's annual Christmas party at the Elk's Lodge in Bangor.
Kids got to visit with Santa, who showed up with a bagful of toys.
And there was also a hearty meal at the event.
Executive director Bill Rae says this couldn't have been done without the support of the community.

I can imagine, that you
Could easily reach me
In only a few strides,
And press your mouth
To mine, in some semblence
Of passion. But I know you
Don't feel the same, and the
Truth is hard to swallow.
I could see you were well,
Confused as we held hands
Just that once, you were
Scared, awkward, and
I wish you didn't feel like
That around me, because
You shouldn't, we're
Closer than that, I know it

Gain - Pain
To all things weight
the doctor said that fat isn't good for me
I must shed all this additional weight
but like a passionate lover it clung to me
until she gently began to suffocate
On a track I ran for several miles
my body I contorted in gruesome pose
I also tried a quite few miracle pills
But it only succeeded adding to my woes
"You might be genetically predisposed", they said
Could I on my parents assign the blame?
Is it their fault that I look like this?
Should I go through life feeling ashamed?
Why I can't I be like that pretty face
whose stomach easily an elephant digest
Why anything I eat so brutally gained
over my hips and all over my chest
Why does my body torment me so?
Why all my efforts are undermined
Should I simply give up on any food
to make me fail, is my body determined?


text:
Death came to me once,
Eating my mind.
Pain filled my chest, my heart.
Rest was denied me and the
End was lost in my worn-out mind.
Slowly each nerve became numb, and everything
I shudder even now; the memory fresh.
Over time I was revived, thanks dear friend. Please,

text: Charleston assigns full-time police patrols at Transit Mall By Travis Crum September 3, 2012 Story Share Chris Dorst Charleston Police Officer Steve Petty Jr. talks with people during a patrol of the KRT Transit Mall on Friday. Petty is the first officer assigned to patrol the park. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Charleston police have fought for years to keep criminal activity out of the KRT Transit Mall.Authorities have said their latest endeavor -- the first full-time officer assigned to patrol the park -- seems to be working. However, that officer said it's no easy task.Officer Steven Petty Jr. smiles as he greets the crowds of people scattered throughout the park during patrols on an unreasonably hot Friday. He's come to know many by their first names and in order to make eye contact when speaking to them, he doesn't wear sunglasses."I just try to be respectful and treat people how I would want to be treated," Petty said about his policing philosophy.Petty acknowledges the challenges of being the first Charleston patrolman assigned the Transit Mall beat. The area has become synonymous with crime, and news outlets have paid close attention to the violent acts reported there, he said.Earlier this month, a man was stabbed during an altercation. A man was sentenced to two years in prison in January for stabbing another man with a large knife at the Transit Mall. In years past, robberies and beatings have also been reported there.One of Petty's goals is to build the community's trust so they feel comfortable reporting violent acts when they happen. He also maintains high visibility to let people know police are working to make the area safer.One of the ways he does this is by looking after the significant homeless population that frequents the park. Some feel they have nowhere to go, he said, and come to the park after hours to sleep.The city installed iron spikes along the park's dividing walls to discourage sleeping. Police also enforce a strict no-trespassing ordinance for the park at night.Petty makes sure the homeless are aware of the limited resources available to them, but many still cannot find help. During an average patrol he finds a lot of them drinking or using drugs. He spends a majority of his time dealing with repeat offenders, he said."I usually notice the ones that get up and leave as soon as I enter the park," he said.Charleston Police Lt. Shawn Williams, commander of the Community Services Division, praised Petty for his work during a recent West Side neighborhood watch meeting.Williams said Petty has successfully deterred a lot of criminal activity at the Transit Mall -- it's now moving elsewhere.Petty now has to break away from the Transit Mall to patrol Davis Park and alleys along Capitol Street, he said. The challenge is staying ahead of the game, he said. He goes to neighboring businesses to listen to their concerns. Many owners have said they feel safer with his presence and aren't afraid to walk through the park to open and close their stores.Petty also switches up his work hours to trick repeat offenders who try to memorize his schedule.He said he's willing to do whatever it takes to keep the area safer for everyone but is humble about the praise he's received."I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do."Reach Travis Crum at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-5163.

GetMeBackToWork.com Flips Job Board Model On Its Head & Gains Rapid Acceptance
Recruitment Platform For Hourly Wage Workers offering new process for the 12.7 million unemployed to get back to work
While most online job boards and applications are focused on the professional and corporate arena, the GetMeBackToWork.com model focuses on getting the American worker, the hourly wage earner, back to work. Today the hourly wage worker faces a hiring process that is archaic at best. Riddled with paper applications, hit or miss classified ads, and job boards that require an application for each job opportunity, the hourly wage workforce and its hiring managers are desperate for a better way. GetMeBackToWork.com allows the hourly wage worker to apply one time to a universal application, so they can be found by hiring managers searching for candidates on the platform. Hiring managers are able to search for candidates by keywords such as industry, shift and location, empowering hiring managers with rapid access to candidates.
"We are facing a crisis in this country. We have 12.7 million unemployed people – many of which are hourly wage earners. At the same time, we regularly hear from hiring managers that can not find candidates to hire, or good matches for their positions and are often dealing with turnover rates close to 400%," said Shannon Scott, CEO of GetMeBackToWork.com. "Just yesterday, I spoke to an hourly worker, Lori, registered on our site. This was a young single mother who was struggling to find a job. She is down to her last dollar and unemployment is just not helping. She walks around 3 miles a day (sometimes with kids in tow) knocking on doors trying to find a job because she would rather save money for food instead of gas. This is a woman with a college degree and 12 years in the restaurant business. I hear these stories and it has made this business turn into a personal mission," he said.
We want to invite every hard working American in all states, seeking nursing jobs, trucking jobs, clerical jobs, security jobs, janitorial jobs, cashier jobs, restaurant jobs, and hospitality jobs to join our movement and platform by registering today at www.GetMeBackToWork.com. There are no costs to apply and in less than 7 minutes hourly wage earners can make themselves visible to countless hiring managers without individual job posts and ads.
About GetMeBackToWork.com
GetMeBackToWork was created to simplify the process between connecting employers with potential job candidates in hourly wage worker dependent industries. Through an innovative platform, GetMeBackToWork.com allows hiring managers to search for candidates using custom keyword criteria, and hourly wage earners to break the cycle of having to fill out paper applications and repeatedly apply to job posts.

Damien: Easily Bribed.Mature
"You still love him," Nathan says, reading the note from Kyle again. It's not a question, and the nod I give him is totally unnecessary. He sighs, pushing a hand through my hair gently. "It's okay, y'know. You can't get over someone you care about so much quickly."
"It's been over eight months," I mumble, sulking just a little bit.
"Well, you love the guy. That's not an easy bond to break, is it?" I shake my head, looking down at my hands. He wraps his arms around me, pulling me in for a hug and I let him, leaning into his chest. "the next year and a half will be over before you know it and you can get your ass out of here and see if you can patch things up with him."
"But he's with Rayn, and I don't wanna be the reason that either of them get hurt."
"Just wait and see how things work out, babe." I nod slightly, not really feeling all that confident about it. I take the note back and fold it up again, slipping it in one of the game's cases to keep it safe.
The week goes by pretty slowly. Things between me and Nathan have kinda gone weird since I admitted I still love Kyle, and while he's not exactly having a bitch fit over it, I've slept on my own more than a couple times, left to read Kyle's note til I pass out from exhaustion. Visit day rolls around eventually, and I find myself sitting on the edge of my bunk, waiting apprehensively for my name to be called out. Part of me is panicking that he would decide not to come back after what happened last week.
But sure enough, my name is yelled and I practically run over to be handcuffed and taken to the visit room.
Kyle smiles at me as he sits down, and I return it, instantly giving into the urge to hug him. He hugs back and that's kinda when I notice the small scabs on his chin and nose. I pull back a little.
"What happened to you?"
"Head butted a wall," he says.
"Why do I not believe that?"
"Because I'm not very accident prone?" he suggests. I nod, running a couple of fingers over the scabs.
"And now the truth?"
"Matt," he tells me. I'm hit by a wave of anger at the mention of the bastard's name, and all I wanna do is rip the guy's head off and spit in the hole. Kyle just shrugs. "How're you anyway?"
"Get that Marcus guy back, gorgeous, please. I don't like the thought of him still causing trouble."
"It was self defence more than anything. Don't worry about it," he smiles. I'm not exactly what you would call convinced. He ignores the fact that I quite obviously don't believe him. "How're you?"
"I'm... fine, I guess. You?"
"I'm good."
"And the squirrel boy?"
"He's okay."
I nod, suddenly remembering that squirrel boy never used to sleep 'cause he had these nightmares. He never told us what they were, but it was fucking annoying having a hyperactive idiot running around the tour bus 'cause he was bored and restless. "How's he sleeping? I know he used to get a lot of nightmares."
"What're they about? He won't tell me."
I shrug, "beats me. He never told us either." Kyle frowns a little. "Could be anything though. He's good at making himself scared of things. Like birds," I chuckle, remembering the time he climbed up a tree and got stuck and started freaking out because there were loads of birds in it.
Kyle chuckles too, "he's never gonna get over that, is he?"
"I doubt it. He's been terrified of them for longer than I've known him. I think Cancer said he had a bad acid trip while he was watching that film, Birds." Kyle laughs a little, and I smile. "I miss the little fucker. Being on tour with him was brilliant."
He smiles, "I'll get him to come visit you next week." I mirror his smile.
"I'd like that. Maybe he can bring Scruffles with him."
"I don't think they'd let a squirrel in here, gorgeous."
"You're forgetting how easily bribed these guys are," I laugh slightly, wondering if it would actually be possible to bribe them to let Rayn bring his squirrel.
"I'll see what I can do," he says, smiling again.

Now relieved of its first office in the region, the firm will instead direct resources to Hong Kong and Beijing.
Local managing partner Paul McKenzie conceded that in addition to a drop in business in Taiwan, a number of departures from the Taipei office during the past year put additional pressure on the firm to consider its position.
Perkins Coie was left reeling by the decision of former office head Sui-Yu Wu to join local practice Lee Tsai & Partners in October. A chain reaction ensued, with other lawyers following Wu to his new firm, culminating in partner Marcus Woo leaving for Jones Day Reavis & Pogue.
The firm plans to concentrate its Asian efforts on budding IT markets in Hong Kong and China. McKenzie said: "Hong Kong and China have a lot of growth potential. The firm's refocusing its efforts on those markets." This strategy rethink will not involve lawyers from the Taiwan office, as none of them are understood to be joining the firm in either of its two remaining offices in the region.
Having shed its Taiwan office, Perkins Coie will put down deeper roots in Hong Kong and China. McKenzie wants the Hong Kong office to gain local law status, enabling it to offer a full service on the ground.
As one of only a small clutch of West Coast US firms in China, Perkins Coie is keen to strengthen its relatively young Beijing office. Officially opened in June, the office is headed by former Baker & McKenzie Beijing head Jon Eichelberger. McKenzie said that two more lawyers are expected to join the team of three currently based in China.

Rockstar Game's Max Payne for Android Marked Down to $0.99 [Win]
Mobile game lovers, to celebrate the Labor Day weekend, Rockstar Games has lowered the price of Max Payne to just $0.99. At that price, who can't help but get into some crime fighting, gun blasting, street justice action? Wish I could say the same about GTAIII, but that one is still $5. Either way, good deal right here.
Cheers Chris!
Rockstar's Max Payne Released to Android, Time to Shoot Up Some Baddies
The ultra-hit Max Payne is now available for Android. Rockstar definitely took their time on this release, even by delaying launch a bit and we are hoping it was to squash as many bugs as they could before delivery. The game only costs $2.99 and if you are a true Payne fan, you know this is a small price to pay for such a classic. (more…)
Rockstar Finally Announces Official June 14 Launch Date for Max Payne onto Android
After a few untimely launch delays, Rockstar has now given Android owners a concrete date at which to find Max Payne on the Android platform. Starting June 14, you can find the shooter on the Play Store for just $2.99. Not bad. Once the game is released, we will be picking it up and letting you know our thoughts on this re-release of one of the better classic titles from my younger years. Have all the delays sort of made this launch a big letdown for anyone else? It sure has for me.

Rockstar Games: Max Payne for Android Delayed, Should Be Out "Next Week Or So"
A tweet sent out from Rockstar Game's official Twitter says that Android users have to be patient for a bit longer if waiting for the release of Max Payne to the Android OS. No say as to what has caused the delay, but we can assume they've stumbled upon some bugs and are applying some emergency fixes before release. I don't mind the wait, as long as this game is flawless when it's released.
Stoked for Max Payne?

Cheers K and B!
Rockstar Game's Max Payne Headed to Android, Arrives on April 26
Get your guns cocked and ready to take down some dirty drug dealers, because Rockstar Games is bringing Max Payne to Android. Starting April 26, folks will be able to pick up the classic title on their Android devices through the Google Play Store. There is no list of supported Android devices yet, but here's hoping it launches with no hiccups regarding device compatibility.
The full classic Max Payne PC experience, Max Payne Mobile has been optimized for both iOS and Android devices and features HD graphics, high-resolution textures, Social Club connectivity and user-customizable controls.
Rockstar is most likely making a trailer for it as we speak, which should hopefully give us a peak at how awesome this game will look on mobile. No word on pricing yet, so let's just guess it will probably be around $4.99, much like Grand Theft Auto was. Anyone excited for the Payne?

Sefton Park, South Australia
|Sefton Park
Adelaide, South Australia
|5 km (3 mi) from Adelaide
|State electorate(s)
|Federal Division(s)
Sefton Park is a suburb about 6 km north of the Adelaide CBD, South Australia and lies in both the City of Port Adelaide Enfield and the City of Prospect. It borders the suburbs Enfield, Nailsworth, Prospect and Broadview. Sefton Park is a minor shopping district of Adelaide[citation needed] and is also one of Adelaide's smallest suburbs.
Sefton Park is one of the older Adelaide suburbs and as such contains many Californian bungalows and some Art Deco homes. There are also Australian colonial style houses.
In recent times, some of these older homes have been demolished to make way for new housing. New developments are typically higher density, fitting two or three homes on one block of land. The suburb's proximity to the CBD means that this is a more lucrative option for developers.
Sefton Park has three main shopping centres located only metres from each other.
- Regency Plaza - The smallest of the centres, with just a small Woolworths (previously Coles), Cheap as Chips and specialty shops.
- Sefton Plaza - The oldest and largest of the three, containing Target, Foodland (previously Arrow), Best and Less in addition to specialty shops
- Northpark Shopping Centre - technically in the neighbouring suburb of Prospect is located directly across Main North Road from Sefton Plaza. Northpark contains both Woolworths and Coles supermarkets and a number of smaller specialty stores. Northpark has recently been expanded and refurbished, after looking outdated for many years.
busline routes 222, 224, 225F, 228, 229 and N224 (after-midnight service) service Sefton Park along Main North Road, these routes travel between Adelaide's northern suburbs and the Adelaide CBD. This stretch of Main North Road is an Adelaide Metro Go Zone, this means that the maximum wait for a bus is fifteen minutes between 07:30am and 18:30pm on weekdays.
busline route 100 services Sefton Park along Regency Road. The 100 route circles the Adelaide CBD via the outer bypass. This service does not operate on Sundays or public holidays.

The Bat and the Witch
This is a creative writing assignment that I had for school, it's actually a lot of fun. Try it!
The assignment is: Find a poem that you like. Use the last line of that poem as the first line of a new poem that you write.
If you decide to try it, be sure to tell what poem your first line is from :)
The first line of my poem is the last line of "The Witch of Willowby Wood".
"That is that! I have just made a bat!"
Cried the Witch as she started to twitch.
The poor mouse was now a bat.
The witch cackled, as any witch would
And the bat flew away as fast as he could
Where to go he did not know.
"Just get away," he began to say
As he flew farther from the witches house
He saw a cave not far from here
And there he had nothing to fear

· OH Towers has the lurgy. The whole building is sniffing and spluttering; in fact it's got so bad, management are threatening to lace the canteen coffee with Lemsip. Don't get me wrong: I love an excuse to pull a sickie as much as the next woman, but you have to draw the line somewhere. I draw my line at actually being sick. However, all is not lost. Glucasan have persuaded Dr Paul Clayton, chairman of the Royal Society of Medicine's Food and Health Forum no less, to devise a formula to predict whether you are going to get a cold. Sadly, because Dr Clayton is a proper doctor, the formula is a) very long and b) perfectly reasonable, taking in factors such as whether or not you have had a flu vaccination, whether you're stressed and your exposure rate to germs. In other words, it doesn't tell you much that you didn't know already. But it is very sensible.
· Which is a shame, because spurious science is so much more entertaining. Luckily, Olbas has stepped into the breach with the groundbreaking suggestion that man flu (the notion that men are more likely to describe the sniffles as influenza) might not actually be true. The shocking truth is that women exaggerate their symptoms, too. Whodathunkit? Anyway, they are calling this plague of hyperbole "girl flu". Apart from pondering what was wrong with calling it "woman flu", I did wonder how they measured such a tricksy phenomenon. Luckily, Olbas was able to explain. 55% of men recognised the symptoms in their womenfolk. And there was more. Apparently, we're all coming down with it. I'm sure that's no exaggeration.
· Anyway, enough of this piffling about with the common cold. We're in the middle of a bird flu crisis. According to Croner, UK bosses should do their disaster-planning now. Apparently this entails, among other things, identifying risks, assessing impact, and, best of all, appointing a bird flu champion (I was unable to ascertain whether the champion must purchase his or her own chicken suit, or whether one would be provided). Disturbingly, Croner doesn't address the one thing we should really be getting in a flap about: where is the company's stock of Tamiflu and who is on the distribution list? Huh?
· Last, good news. You might have a cold, but you don't have the Monday blues, because HR company Chiumento has exclusively revealed that the Monday blues are a myth. Sunday-night nerves are the product of an overactive imagination, waking up sick with dread is more likely to be the result of a dodgy takeaway, and hiding in the coffee bar until 10.30am on a Monday simply doesn't happen. A controversial conclusion, I think you'll agree. Do you think they are sickening for something?

A Woman's IntuitionMature
Back at the cabin I told the women that I was surprised that they accepted Emma, as well as making her a partner.
"What?" began Montana, "Do you think Melonie and I just let our emotions rule us...Ha! Admittedly at first we thought you chose her strictly for her beauty but once we got talking to her that she revealed the rest. Melonie than spoke up.
"Were you aware she attended a small woman's college just outside St. Louis? Emma told us that while attending a Cotillion she met and fell in love with a young captain from Jefferson Barracks. Before long they were married. She claims the marriage was a happy one until he was killed. You and Jake know the rest." Montana then said,
"That poor woman has been through hell, and I thought I had it bad. She barred her soul to us most of which we cannot tell you. Needless to say, Melonie and I were quite impressed. She's got a good business sense, an excellent card player, very well read. We now realize that you two chose her strictly on those attributes alone we apologize for doubting you men that is why we feel that she should be told of our secret."
The next two days were spent finalizing the wood and hardware delivery making a trip down to Cheyenne Crossing Jake thought Emma was well enough to travel so we brought her to the cabin and put her up in one of the rooms while Montana and Melonie agreed to bunk together. After supper we all sat at the kitchen table, where I addressed Emma.
"Prepare to make a leap of faith Emma, for I've got a story for you."
Montana and Melonie then told her that everything I was about to tell her was the god's honest truth.
