Phoebe sat up, more than that she stood up and moved next to Basilic. "What?" Her voice was lost, she clutched Blaze's glasses to her chest. Her eyes simmered down, the flame sizzled, showing her sorrow.
"Did you say.. You.." She paused gathering her thoughts. "Did you say you knew Blaze?" She knew Blaze was here with her, she could feel it. Or, it could have been Basilic's eyes, she could see them beneath his glasses. "Please. Would you tell me what you knew of him?" She sat beside Basilic, not quite meeting his eyes. He reminded her too much of Blaze.
Blaze's hand was on her shoulder again, the cold touch. She smiled, a small smile but she was comfortable. She didn't want to say goodbye, not yet.

RNDr., Ph.D., Institute of Geological Engineering, Faculty of Mining and Geology, VŠB – Technical University of Ostrava, tř. 17. listopadu 15/2172, 708 33 Ostrava-Poruba, Tel.: (+420) 59 732 3527 e-mail [email protected] Abstract The survey of damaged engineering buildings is in many cases very demanding in terms of the selection of a right exploration method in relation to the results obtained for subsequent engineering works, time for survey implementation, and violations arising from survey activities. Heterogeneity of materials of a natural and anthropogenic origin is a fundamental axiom which can subsequently lead to either a distortion or a failure threatening statically the existence of a building structure. On the test object of a pavement, after some time of its use, severe deformations became evident whose causes and future evolution were not known. Within the design of survey techniques being able to quickly and efficiently uncover the causes of failures, the GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) investigation was included which as an indirect, non-destructive survey method very quickly helped to clarify he causes of failures of the building structure. Abstrakt Průzkum porušených inženýrských staveb je v mnoha případech velmi náročný z hlediska volby správné průzkumné metody ve vztahu k získaným výsledkům pro navazující inženýrské práce, času na realizaci průzkumu a další porušení vznikající při průzkumné činnosti. Heterogenita materiálů přirozeného i antropogenního původu je základním axiomem, který může vést následně buď k deformacím, nebo až k porušení staticky ohrožujícímu existenci stavební konstrukce. Na zkoumaném objektu vozovky se po čase jeho užívání projevily závažné deformace, o kterých nebylo známo, co je způsobilo a jaký bude jejich vývoj v čase. V rámci návrhu průzkumných technik, schopných rychle a efektivně odhalit příčiny porušení byl zařazen průzkum georadarem-GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar), který jako nepřímá, nedestruktivní metoda průzkumu velmi rychle přispěl k objasnění příčin porušování stavební konstrukce. Key words: GPR, engineering-geological investigation, failures, road structures, road subgrade 1 INTRODUCTION The investigation works were required on site in order to find out the origin of pavement failures on the side of the road sloping south-west towards the pond located west of the village of Simtany. The pavement failures, especially in the area of road shoulders, have a character of a discrete local subsidence, rough potholes and cracks. One of hypotheses was the relationship between the pavement failures and potential slope deformations, or the sliding of subgrade. With regard to the very limited possibility to perform more time-consuming survey works on a relatively narrow and busy road, which would lead to the reduction of traffic, the GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) method was deployed as the main method to investigate the geological situation and determine possible inhomogeneity in the rock mass. GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 37 The GPR method is the worldwide most dynamically developing and applying method of research in the field of road and railway constructions. A number of works addresses GPR applications for road constructions. In particular, it is the applied research on the quality of pavements [1], [2], [4], [5], or materials used for the construction of roads [9]. Other publications are focused on the development and improvement of methodologies for GPR measurements on roads such as [8]. Only part of the works deals with a comprehensive evaluation of both the materials of road body and subgrade, on which the works [7], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14] are grounded. The Ministry of Transport of the Czech Republic also issued a special methodical technical prescription, describing the use of GPR for the survey of road constructions [22]. The area of interest is located in the Highlands Region, mainly in the cadastral area of Simtany (cadastral area No. 724653), at the boundary of the map sheets 23-214 and 23-223 of the base map at 1:25 000 scale. The studied area (Fig. 1, 2, 3) is located west of the village of Simtany and is part of the I/19 road connecting the village of Simtany with the town of Pohled north of the local pond. Fig. 1 The location of the area in question on the basis of a geological transparent map of the ČR compiled by ČGS (Czech Geological Survey) [18]. GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 38 Fig. 2 The detailed map of the locality; the road section of interest, or measured profiles on which the measurements were made, in red [19]. Fig. 3 The aerial photograph of the locality; the road section of interest, or measured profiles on which the measurements were made, in red [16]. Right in the area of interest, no archival survey works are recorded by the map server of the Czech Geological Survey. The earliest recorded works are registered at a distance of about 300 m and more of the area of interest. For comparison of the results, probe profiles were used which are located in a considerable distance, but under similar conditions of the rock environment as the studied location. The probes of the following IDs (CGSGeofond) were used: 398414, 684570 and 394824. Their location can be seen from Fig. 4. GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 39 Fig. 4 The actual situation of the locality according to the mapping application of the CGS Geofond. The probes used for comparison are in red circles. The shown lines (in red) correspond to the measured georadar profiles, the location of the manual verification probe Rv-2 is indicated in blue [15]. Using a hand set (Eijkelkamp) with Edelmann drills, two shallow probes for the direct verification of results from georadar measurements were carried out. Drilling was made off the pavement with regard to the safety of the crew and the surrounding area as well. 2 NATURAL CONDITIONS In the context of natural conditions, the attention was paid to the geomorphology of the area, the basic geological structure of the rock mass and the hydrological and hydrogeological conditions that are characteristic for the studied geological environment. 2.1 Geomorphological conditions According to the geomorphological division of the Czech Republic [16], the area in question belongs to: Czech Highlands Province, Czech-Moravian System Subprovince, Bohemian-Moravian Highlands, Hornosázavská Upland, Jihlava-Sázava Furrow Pohledy Upland District. The Pohledy Upland is characterized by rugged hills formed by plateaus and broadly rounded inter-valley ridges bordering the river valley cut of the Sázava River [3]. GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 40 2.2 Geological conditions From a regional geological point of view, the location of Moldanubicum belongs to the Bohemian Massif (Fig. 5) which is mainly composed of strongly metamorphosed rocks (parageneses) sporadically permeated by acidic intrusive rocks [6]. From a petrographic point of view, biotite granites of the Moldanubian Pluton Paleozoic age are represented across the entire documented area of the slope offcut. These are the rocks on the surface and in shallow near-surface parts disintegrated (residual soil - R6) to completely weathered (completely weathered - R5) to coarse-grained sands, in surface outcrops highly weathered rocks (highly weathered - R4), to a depth then acquiring a character of slightly weathered rocks (slightly weathered - R2-R3) – to describe the classes of rock, the classification was used that was stated in the ČSN 73 6133 standard [21] and in no longer valid ČSN 73 1001 [20], which, however, is in practice still used as an additional one. Fig. 5 Cut out from the geological map at a scale of 1:50 000 [18]. The plutonic body of biotite granite is bordered by the blue line, the road section of interest then by the red line. The Quaternary cover is represented by a thin (about 1 m) complex of deluvio-eluvial sandy-nature soils over the road, then by fluvial or limnic sediments under the road. The road body itself and parts of the slopes with an incline to the pond are built by landfills of a variable composition and low thickness. 2.3 Hydrological and hydrogeological conditions The Sázava River represents the main gathering channel in the area of interest. The area is therefore directly drained by the Sázava River, or by its small right-hand tributaries. The watershed of the first order is then formed by the Elbe River. Southwest of the area of interest there is a water reservoir - a pond. According to the zoning of the Czech Republic to base layers, the locality is in the zone 6520 Crystalline turf in the Sázava River Basin [17]. Groundwaters in the area of interest are bound to the fissures and fault zones of the pre-Quaternary bedrock. The backfill layer (structural layers of the road) is locally used as a collector of infiltrated vadose water. However, this type of saturation may be considered seasonal. It is a typical fluctuation of the underground water GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 41 level in an unconfined aquifer with a considerable oscillation – from full saturation of the collecting environment to complete drying in precipitation-deficit periods. The groundwater level was not reached by means of the carried out control, hand-drilled probes to a depth of 1.3 m below the ground. 3 ENGINEERING GEOLOGICAL CONDITIONS The following geological profile was encountered in the area of interest: anthropogenic fills – structural layers and sporadically additional fills in slopes, deluvia, fluvial sediments (only in the alluvial part, i.e. not under the road itself) pre-Quaternary bedrock. 3.1 Anthropogenic fills Due to the fact that the probes were not made directly in the pavement, we can only assume the composition of the anthropogenic layers. According to radargrams the structural layers achieve the thickness of 0.4 to 0.8 m. For the structural layers, local materials were probably used, which could distort the real thickness in the records. The radar-captured inhomogeneities in structural layers have no direct response in failures in the bituminous surface. We assume, therefore, that these are rather structures in which a migration of water through structural layers occurs. Locally, then piping or erosive processes can apply here, as is evident in particular in the eastern end of the section in question. The slope from the pavement towards the pond also bears, in some places, signs of anthropogenic sediment, for which e.g. building rubble was used as well. The ground surface is then outside the structural layer mostly covered by up to a 0.2 m thick layer of forest land. 3.2 Deluvia Deluvia (often even runoffs of the same material) primarily cover the slope space above the road. In the vast majority, this is the transfer of residues from weathering of granites in the form of coarse sands and sandy loams. Based on the ČSN 73 6133 standard [21], they mostly rank to the class S2 with possible transitions to the classes F2-F4. 3.3 Fluvial sediments Fluvial sediments occur in the base of the slope where they are overlapped by pond sedimentation. The thickness of sediment deposits was detected by the radar on the profile P2 in the value of about 2.0 m, by the archival probe V-1306 situated almost in the middle of the floodplain of the Sázava River then in a value of 3.5 m. 3.4 Rocks of pre-Quaternary bedrock - granites Granitic rocks, as already described above, are in a varying degree of weathering. On the surface and in shallow near-surface parts, they are almost completely disintegrated or completely weathered, locally then they are in some surface outcrops just highly weathered, to a depth then acquiring a character of slightly weathered rocks, however, broken by discontinuities. Residues and sandy geests of these rocks are suitable, or at least conditionally suitable, for embankments and for the use in the core of the road subgrade. These are mainly non-frost-susceptible soils. 4 METHODOLOGY OF WORK With regard to the very limited possibilities of implementation of time-consuming survey works on a relatively narrow and busy road, the GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) method was deployed to investigate the geological conditions and to determine possible inhomogeneities. For proper orientation of radar waves transmitted to the subgrade, it was necessary to ensure full contact of the antenna with the ground, which was fulfilled in that locality. The GPR method based on transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves is very sensitive to environmental disturbances by the electromagnetic field induced by electric wires under high voltage or metal wires in general that affect the propagation of electromagnetic waves from the transmitting antenna to the GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 42 receiver. This can be avoided by selecting shielded antennas during the measurement. In case of a need to show indirectly the environment through the depth in the order of meters, high-frequency antennas should be used with frequencies of hundreds of MHz and a short wavelength of propagated electromagnetic waves. During the measurement at this location, the GPR set by the Swedish producer Malå was used. The set was formed by an antenna system of 250 and 500 MHz. The antenna system is designed as shielded against spurious electromagnetic interference from the environment. As a control unit, RAMAC Pro EX and as a display unit then View XV11 were used. Measurements were performed across the entire section in question longitudinally in the roadside (profile P1) in 4 opposite direction travels (reverse profiles were used for control), always twice with both antennas on frequencies of 250 and 500 MHz. In the NW end of the section of interest, the profile perpendicular to the road I/19 ranging from the floodplain to the area of fields over the road, was subsequently measured. Much better results were achieved with the antenna system of 500 MHz. To evaluate the data in the form of radargrams, the software RadExplorer 1.41. was used. Using the hand set (Eijkelkamp) with Edelmann drills, two shallow probes for verification of the results from georadar measurements were carried out. Drilling was made off the road with regard to the safety of the crew and the surrounding area. 5 MEASUREMENT RESULTS, MASSIF STABILITY ANALYSIS 5.1 GPR measurement results On the basis of the measurements performed within the shoulders of the road, the likely level of a depth boundary of the surface of highly weathered granites (category 4 and less weathered) depicted by the red dashed line (Fig. 6 and 7) was established during interpretation. In all the studied profiles, the probable interface of overburdens (both natural and anthropogenic) and highly weathered granites below the road in depths (from the surface of the pavement), ranging from about 1.3 to 1.6 m, was interpreted. In radargrams, this line is represented with a pink dotted line. The depth of the interpreted interfaces is encumbered with an error quantified at about 10 % due to the variability of dielectric properties of the rock mass in the measured profiles. Fig. 6 The radargram of the selected portion of the longitudinal profile measured with GPR in the shoulder of the road with the interpretation of each interface (surface of granites - red, highly weathered granites - pink, eluvium - orange). The red ellipses highlight the examples of inhomogeneities in structural layers of the road. GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 43 Road Fig. 7 The radargram of the selected part of the cross section area measured with GPR from the alluvial floodplain area near the pond against the slope NE with the interpretation of each interface (surface granites red, highly weathered granites - pink, eluvium - orange, deluvium - yellow, alluvium - blue, anthropogenic layers - black). 5.2 Stability conditions and the principle of deformation occurrence in the local road As follows from the results from the field reconnaissance and radar measurements, there is no reason to believe that roadside disorders have their origin in landslides in the true sense of the word (sliding). The hypothesis of landslides is not supported by either the geological structure of the area (granite massif) or signs of disturbances in the bitumnous surface of the pavement. According to findings in situ, the road damage was caused in connection with the effects of flowing and leaking surface (rain) waters. In many places of the pavement and the adjacent slope, it is evident that during increased precipitations, an overflow of rainwater over the surface of the terrain from highly lying fields occurs. This is clearly obvious from the presence of minor erosion furrows and rain gullies in the slope and also from the presence of flushed (alluvial) sandy soils in the area of the road shoulder. Especially in the eastern part of the area of interest, also the places can be documented where infiltration of rain water in the shoulder of the road occurs, its migration through structural layers and re-discharge to the surface in the slope at the side of the shoulder towards the pond. These phenomena are then probably accompanied by piping as well. In radargrams, quite many inhomogeneities in structural layers of the pavement were interpreted, which can then be related to these phenomena. 6 CONCLUSIONS The GPR method proved to be suitable for the given type of exploratory assignments and provided a reliable insight into the composition and condition of the rock environment under a pavement and base courses. This is a relatively cheap, quick and non-destructive method of survey which was as the only feasible without limitation of traffic on the road. The survey with the GPR method clearly defined the ground surface under the structural layers of the pavement. The compliance of GPR measurements with the reality was then established also using manually drilled test probes. GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 44 Fig. 8 A simplified profile of the manually drilled probe Rv-2 Fig. 9 The example of the yield of disintegrated (residual soil - R6) to completely weathered biotite granites (completely weathered - R5) to coarse-grained sands by hand drilling. The survey and the evaluation of the survey results clearly confirmed the stability of the roadway subgrade and refuted the existence of potential slope failures (sliding) in the investigated section of the road. Objectively existing disorders are not caused by slope movements in the true sense of the word, i.e. landslides, but by the effects of surface water flowing on the road from above-lying parts of the slope. Part of the water flows over the surface of the pavement, and part of it then seeps in the "north" shoulder, migrates through structural layers and on the "southern" side of the road then rises from the structural layers. Thus, also piping phenomena occur here that weaken the structural layers by follow-up internal erosion. The pavement is also violated by the overflowing surface water that due to its erosive effects gradually takes away the material of the unpaved shoulder area and thus significantly reduces and weakens it locally. The shoulders and lanes of the road (in both directions), the closest to the shoulder, are then damaged (broken) first of all by freight transportation. Without the application of the GPR method, those results could not be obtained in such a short time and without destruction of the road.

RESUMÉ Průzkum porušených inženýrských staveb je v mnoha případech velmi náročný z hlediska volby správné průzkumné metody ve vztahu k získaným výsledkům pro navazující inženýrské práce, času na realizaci průzkumu a další porušení vznikající při průzkumné činnosti. Heterogenita materiálů přirozeného i antropogenního původu je základním axiomem, který může vést následně buď k deformacím, nebo až k porušení staticky ohrožujícímu existenci stavební konstrukce. Na zkoumaném objektu (silnici) se po čase jeho užívání projevily závažné deformace, o kterých nebylo známo, co je způsobilo a jaký bude jejich vývoj v čase. V rámci návrhu průzkumných technik, schopných rychle a efektivně odhalit příčiny porušení byl zařazen průzkum georadarem-GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar), který jako nepřímá, nedestruktivní metoda průzkumu velmi rychle přispěl k objasnění příčin porušování stavební konstrukce. Při měření na této lokalitě byla využita sestava GPR švédského výrobce Malå. Sestava byla tvořena stíněným anténním systémem 250 a 500 MHz. Z geologického hlediska tvoří podloží konstrukčních vrstev komunikace biotitické granity moldanubického plutonu paleozoického stáří v různém stupni zvětrání. Ve všech studovaných profilech bylo interpretováno pravděpodobné rozhraní pokryvných útvarů (jak přirozených, tak i antropogenních) a silně zvětralých granitů pod komunikací v hloubkách (od povrchu vozovky) v rozmezí cca 1,3 – 1,6 m. Dle radargramů dosahují vlastní konstrukční vrstvy komunikace proměnlivé mocnosti 0,4 - 0,8m. Hloubka interpretovaných rozhraní je zatížena chybou kvantifikovanou na cca 10%. Jak vyplývá z výsledků terénní rekognoskace i radarových měření, není důvod se domnívat, že poruchy krajnice komunikace mají původ ve svahových pohybech v pravém slova smyslu (sesouvání). Radarem GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420 46 zachycené nehomogenity v konstrukčních vrstvách nemají přímou odezvu v poruchách v živičném krytu. Lze předpokládat, že jde spíše o struktury, ve kterých dochází k migraci vod konstrukčními vrstvami. Místně se zde pak mohou uplatňovat i sufozivní procesy. Dle zjištění v terénu a po analýze radarových měření vzniklo tedy poškození vozovky v souvislosti s účinky proudících a prosakujících povrchových (srážkových) vod. Nasazení georadaru jako hlavní průzkumné metody se ukázalo v daných podmínkách jako vysoce účelné a efektivní řešení (rychlost provedení bez nutnosti omezení či vyloučení dopravy, nízká nákladovost) s poměrně vysokou vypovídací schopností. Podstatně lepších výsledků z hlediska možností interpretace bylo dosaženo s anténním systém 500 MHz. GeoScience Engineering http://gse.vsb.cz Volume LIX (2013), No.3 p. 36-46, ISSN 1802-5420

... It was a beautiful drive but with the sun behind the mountains that lined the coast, it could've been mistaken for dusk rather than mid morning! We drove for a while before making our first stop in the town of Lorne, one of the larger populations on this particular stretch. Here we took in the beach, a lookout which really did put in to perspective how close the road was to the ocean below you and a nice waterfall up in the hills. Our next stop was Airley's Inlet which ...

New Delhi, Jul 8 (UNI) The Samajwadi Party today refused to comment as to whether the UNPA, founded by itself, was intact but categorically said that without his party the Alliance had no meaning.
''What is UNPA without the Samajwadi Party,'' said party General Secretary Ram Gopal Verma talking to reporters after the party's Parliamentary Board Meeting.
Though, Mr Yadav was attacking UNPA allies for declaring it as ousted from the Alliance over its support to the Congress on the nuclear deal, he refused to give a direct reply to the question about the fate of the Alliance and his party's place in it.
Instead, he sought to point out to reporters that his party had about 50 MPs in Parliament while all other constituents combined together did not reach that figure.
Mr Yadav said his party had done what it believed to be right under the circumstances, as for it, fighting communalism was the most urgent task.
Without naming the INLD or the AGP, he said ''Those who want to go with the BJP were free to do so.'' SP general secretary Amar Singh had already said that ''his party was ready to make any sacrifice,'' when told that he had been declared as out of the Alliance by INLD chief Om Prakash Chautala.
The alliance of originally seven regional parties was founded over a year ago on the principle of equidistance from the Congress and the BJP and was projected a third political alternative.
However, of late the increasing bonhomie between the S P and the Congress had irritated other UNPA constituents. And the formal declaration of support for the Congress by the party leaders last week and by its Parliamentary Board today has made the UNPA meaningless for the Party.

There Was A Pregnant Pause Before He Said "OK": The Best Of Belle & Sebastian

Creator of the Mix: Rev. Syung Myung Me
Initial Notes About The Mix: My SO hadn't really heard much in the way of Belle & Sebastian, so I made her this mix. It's a bit heavy on Dear Catastrophe Waitress, just because that's my favorite album of theirs. This was done before The Life Pursuit came out, which explains why there isn't anything from that on here, but yeah. (I would definitely put "Sukie In The Graveyard" and "The Blues Are Still Blue" at least on this, though, were I to re-create it with the updated discography. But I probably won't, since she also bought The Life Pursuit on the day it came out, too, so its purpose has been served, I guess... though she still doesn't have Dear Catastrophe Waitress!

Now you can taste Denmark on Kipling
There is something so sensual about tearing into an airy croissant, steam gently rising as you let the pastry melt on your tongue. Creating this masterpiece is no easy feat (as I learned in my baking class at Johnson and Wales), necessitating hunks of butter and dough, steady hands and a patient mind.
Those of you who have been to Taste of Denmark, on 1070 South Union Boulevard in Lakewood, know that owners Ronny Tronoe and Diana Honoe have it down pat. They also aren't too bad at danishes, scones, kringle, tarts, strudel and so on.
It should then come as exciting news to the people around 1901 South Kipling Street that they soon will have their own Taste of Denmark. Tronoe and Honoe will be opening a second location soon, and Tronoe let me in on where they are at.
"It's a nice, nice location. We are completely remodeling the space, which was a motorcycle store before. We'll have sandwiches, homemade soups, and everything will be fresh baked. We wanted this location for six years and now we finally have the opportunity to do it."
He told me, they're hoping to be up and running in three to four weeks. I will dream of croissants until then.

First glimpse of new Scrambler in latest Ducati teaser
Plus 959 Panigale and beltdrive cruiser
TEASER videos are often cryptic and self-indulgent, so this one makes a welcome change - because it at least shows us some bikes. Well, bits of them, anyway.
We can make out what we think is the new Panigale 959 as well as the new belt-drive cruiser, both of which have been seen in spy shots.
And we can see a Scrambler. It might be only the tank and bars, but we see it's orange, and not the yellowy 'Orange Sunshine' of the existing Scrambler. We've known a new Scrambler is on the way since Ducati launched a dedicated teaser campaign last month. An official Scrambler Facebook page now promises 'You'll see something on Friday.' That's tomorrow.
Oh, and the teaser video above also shows us the firm's Desmosedici GP15 MotoGP bike. Why? We don't know.
Ducati has promised to show nine new models at its press conference in Milan next Monday, ahead of the Eicma motorcycle show.
In case you're having trouble viewing the embedded video, here's a link.

Houdini Splicer
Edit Page Last Edit:
Houdini Splicers are difficult to defeat because they have the ability to teleport at anytime. They attack by teleporting to an unknown location to the player and then firing fire, and sometimes ice attacks. The best way to defeat this enemy is to immediatly use a plasmid to stun them when spotted because there is only a small amount of time they will stay in one spot. The Winter Storm plasmid is the best choice here. Then when frozen attack with a melee weapon and it might defeat them instantly.

Conner: LonesomeMature
The bell rang, signalling the end of hell...Uh...School. I was relieved when I stepped out of the black gates. I might'v even smiled as I popped in my earphones. Evanescence filled my mind, leaving it a blank canvas for the one song that I wanted to hear- My Immortal.
I walked through the winding streets and alleyways until I got to my house. It was quite grand, not really a mansion, but exceptionally big. I wasn't really proud of it- I hadn't worked to get it. Unless killing the occupant and moving in was counted as work.
I whipped out my keys and stuffed them in the key-hole whilst the key-rings jingled and jangled annoyingly.
"When you cry I'd wipe away all of your tears. When you scream I'd fight away all of your fears!" I sang as I walked into the house. I looked around at the place, and everything went into perspective. The air around my dead body suddenly turned melancholy. I was out here. Alone. No friends, at all. My life sucked.

I love Orzo pasta salads. There are so many combination possibilities with Orzo. In my latest Orzo creation, I chose veggies that I love and paired them with a fresh lemon and chive dressing to feature the flavors of Spring.
I'll be making this for our family Easter dinner next Sunday. Total time to make this salad, less than 30 minutes. If you're looking for something fresh, simple and a little out of the ordinary, it's staring you in the face.
Not me, the salad.
Orzo Salad with Fresh Lemon and Chive Dressing
Serves: 12 as a side dish
- for salad:
- 1 lb orzo
- 1 lb fresh asparagus
- 1 lb grape or cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped chives, divided (half for dressing, half for garnish)
- 1 lemon rind, grated fine, using a microplane grater
- sliced lemon, for garnish
- for dressing:
- 1 cup canola oil
- ½ cup cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- ½ cup fresh chives
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- Cook the orzo according to package directions, set aside. This may be done up to three days before serving salad.
- Wash and snap off the tough ends of the asparagus. Cut into one inch pieces on the diagonal. Place about ½ cup of water in a small saucepan. Put the asparagus in the pan, heat until water boils. Cover and cook for one minute. Remove from heat. Asparagus should be bright green. Drain off hot water and pour cool water into the pan. Drain again and place asparagus in the bowl with the cooked orzo. Cut the tomatoes in half and add to the bowl with the orzo and asparagus. Add one half cup of the chopped chives and the grated lemon rind.
- In a large measuring cup, Mix all of the dressing ingredients with a whisk, or place in a blender, or use an immersion blender and pulse until ingredients are blended well.
- When ready to assemble, toss all of the salad ingredients. Pour about ¾ cup of the dressing over the salad. Toss. Let the salad sit a bit before placing in serving bowl or platter. Just before serving, toss with additional dressing if needed. Garnish with the remaining ½ cup of chives and lemon slices.
-Try to assemble and serve the salad on the same day. The pasta may be cooked ahead, but the asparagus is best when tossed with the dressing on the same day.
-You will have leftover dressing. Don't be tempted to drown the salad in dressing. Use the leftover dressing on a green salad, or chopped avocado and tomatoes. This dressing would also make a great marinade for grilled chicken.

Her Eyes/Love
As per usual, i wrote this about my fiance....
i cant remember if i posted this before or not, if i have let me know so i can delete the other one....i hope you like.
Also i need help, im between two titles, choose which ones you prefer and call it that:D
Love is that look in her eyes,
every time you make her smile.
Love is that thing in your mind,
that keeps your love in style.
Love is hours spent together,
all when time flew by.
Love is the song of a bird,
as it builds its beautiful nest.
Love is watching over your soul mate,
as you realise she's better than the rest.
Love is so beautiful, I'm glad it found me.
glad that we're together just you and me.

Synopsis for "The Way It Began!"Edit
Ben and Alicia arrive at the Baxter Building and see what appears to be Doctor Doom standing over the dead body of Sue. When Ben tries to attack "Doom", he learns that it is a life like illusion cast by Reed's Thought-Projector Helmet. Reed explains he was testing it out by coming up with the most repulsive image he could think of. Suddenly, the Human Torch melts through the wall to see what all the noise was about, thinking it was an attack. Sue enters the room and then scolds Johnny for melting through the wall. She then turns her anger toward Reed, as they are running for their trip to Whisper Hill to spend time with their son Franklin.
When Ben makes a crack about putting off marrying Alicia, Johnny takes the opportunity to put down Ben for the way he appears. This angers the Thing and the two almost come to blows when Reed and Sue intervene. After Reed and Sue leave, Ben accidentally makes reference to Alicia, upsetting her that he still views her blindness as something to pity, decides to show herself out. When Ben tries to confide in Johnny how he feels about his appearance, Johnny -- still sore about having to let Crystal go back home -- gets angry at him for being so stubborn about his relationship with Alicia and storms out. Reed and Sue watch Johnny leave in a hurry and Sue wonders if Johnny is taking Crystal's departure from the group too hard.
Back inside, Ben decides to distract his mind and decides to put on Reed's Thought-Projector Helmet. Conjuring up an image of himself when he first mutated into the Thing, with a thick leathery hide, and then as he is now with a rocky exterior, the Thing soon begins remembering himself after the faithful trip into space that led to his transformation.
This in turn leads to a visual recollection of the events that gave birth to the Fantastic Four. Ben recalls how Reed asked Ben, Sue and Johnny to assist him in a commandeering his space ship before the government could shut down the project. How Reed ignored Ben's warnings about cosmic rays. How they succeeded in sneaking onto the base and blasting off in the rocket without being captured. Then comes the memory of Ben's warnings coming to life: cosmic rays bombarding the ship. He recalls how Johnny was complaining about his body feeling like it was on fire, and how he himself could not lift himself off the floor. Ben then recalls how when their ship landed, Sue suddenly vanished from sight. Ben himself mutated into his Thing form and when he tried to start a fight with Reed, they were similarly shocked when he was able to stretch out of the way and then subdue Ben with rubber-like arms. Johnny suddenly burst into flames and was able to fly, inspired by the comic book hero, Johnny decides to call himself the Human Torch. Lastly, Ben recalls how Reed got them all to pay attention and suggested that they used their new found powers to the benefit of mankind. Calling themselves Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Girl, the Human Torch and the Thing, the Fantastic Four were born.
Ben then recalls how shortly after they gained their powers, they ended up crossing paths with the Mole Man, an ugly man who hide below the Earth after being shunned by society because of his appearance. He also recalls their first battle with the Mole Man, wherein they battled his creatures and prevented him from unleashing his minions through various tunnels he dug beneath the Earth. How that battle ended with the Fantastic Four seemingly vanishing the Mole Man, trapping him in his underground kingdom. [1] Ben then recalls the group's most recent encounter with the Mole Man, wherein Sue had bought a bizarre metal home to the newly born Franklin in. They soon discovered it was the staging ground for the Mole Man's latest scheme to blind everyone on the surface. Force to fight the Mole Man without their eyesight, the Fantastic Four were still able to foil these plans, but the Mole Man had escaped and then destroyed the metal construct he had created. [2]
Inspired by this recollection, Ben believes that the Mole Man may have the key to curing Alicia of her blindness and decides to go and find their oldest foe. Because of the racket Ben has caused in making this revelation, the Baxter Building's land lord, Walter Collins comes to once more try and evict the Fantastic Four. Unwilling to stop, Ben abruptly hangs Collins from a coat rack and leaves, determined to cure Alicia of her affliction.
Continuity Notes
- The Fantastic Four appear here after appearing in other titles:
- Reed, Sue and Johnny were all last seen in Incredible Hulk #153 during a disastrous court trial being held against the Hulk.
- The Thing previously teamed up with Spider-Man in Marvel Team-Up #6, where they were both tricked by the Puppet Master who claimed he had a means of curing Alicia of her blindness, this was a trap to trick the two heroes into battling the Puppet Master and the Mad Thinker.
- Alicia was last seen in Marvel Team-Up #6 as well.
- Doctor Doom last encountered the Fantastic Four back in Fantastic Four #116 when he was forced to work with he group to stop the Over-Mind. The last time Doom was seen (around the time of this publication) was in Thor #182-183 wherein he battle Thor.
- Reed's Thought-Projection Helmet was last used in Fantastic Four #27.
- Johnny is upset about his girlfriend Crystal whom he had been dating since Fantastic Four #64. In Fantastic Four #105 she was forced to return to Attilan because her body was vulnerable to the pollution from the outside world.
- This story retells the origin of the Fantastic Four as original depicted in Fantastic Four #1. Here are some facts about this recollection:
- Ben recalls that when he first mutated into the Thing he had dinosaur-like skin. As explained in Marvel Two-In-One #50, the Thing's body continued to mutate after his initial transformation. Ultimately he mutated into the rocky form he is most well known for in Fantastic Four #4. Incidentally enough, even though he recalls this earlier form, all his recollections to the moments of his transformation depict the Thing in his most commonly known rocky form. This is likely an embellishment on the Thing's part in recollection.
- When recounting the conversation had by his comrades prior to the rocket flight, Ben is shocked when he recalls himself stating "It'll give them a head start cleanin' up Harlem and' Watts." The New York neighborhood of Harlem, and the Los Angeles neighborhood of Watts were predominantly African-American neighborhoods. When Fantastic Four #1 was first published in 1961, both areas were considered slums and crime infested. This lower standard standard of living and high crime rate was attributed to the African-American population in a lot of cases on the generalized basis of their ethnicity. This sort of mentality is considered racist by today's standards, even back in 1972 when this recounting was published, this sort of statement was considered inappropriate.
- As Marvel has continued to publish stories eventually they had to institute a Sliding Timescale as a means of slowing down the advance of time in the Marvel Universe over the length of publications in real time. This was to prevent ageing their characters quickly as well as updating dated plot concepts, generalizing real life events or dates that are mentioned in various stories. When Fantastic Four #1 was published in 1961, Reed's spaceship is specifically referred to as a rocket, and his intentions for his mission is to beat the Soviet Union in the space race. Contextually, the story was published during the height of the US/Soviet Space Race, which saw both countries competing to see which one could develop manned space flights. Since then, many re-tellings of the Fantastic Four's origin have changed the details of Reed Richard's space flight, updating concepts so that they were not considered dated more modern readers. Such as:
- While Fantastic Four #1 implies that Reed was trying to reach the moon, Fantastic Four #2 states that he was attempting to reach Mars. Other stories since then have generalized where his destination was supposed to be.
- Fantastic Four #197 goes on to state that it was not just cosmic rays that caused the Fantastic Four to get their powers. It states that sunspot activity caused flaring through the Van Allen Belts causing an increase in neutron activity. The combination of this and the cosmic rays caused the mutations.
- 20 years later in Fantastic Four #236, the origin of the Fantastic Four was updated, it was stated that Reed's experimental ship was intended to travel to the edge of the solar system and while it needed a rocket booster to reach escape velocity from Earth's atmosphere it relied on a Star Drive to reach its destination. This tale also goes on to expand on how the quartet were mutated.
- Fantastic Four #358 published in 1991 states that the this "Star Drive" was intended to bring them into hyperspace in order to visit other solar systems.
- This is the first time it is referenced that Johnny took inspiration for his name from the original android Human Torch of World War II. In this story, Johnny refers to the original Torch as a "comic book character". It has been established since Fantastic Four #4 that all the wartime comic books published by Timely Comics in the real world were also published in the Earth-616 universe. All-Winners Squad: Band of Heroes #1 states that Timely Comics in the 1940s were commissioned by the US military as propaganda. Until the modern age of heroes the majority of the heroes from that era were believed to be myths or works of fiction. Johnny's reference to the original Torch being a comic book character is likely the case here. Johnny would eventually meet the original Human Torch in Fantastic Four Annual #4.
- The Thing also recalls their most recent battle against the Mole Man in Fantastic Four #88-Fantastic Four #90.
- Walter Collins makes yet another attempt to kick out the Fantastic Four after his last failed attempt in Fantastic Four #120.
Publication Notes
- This issue was reprinted and marketed as a Power Records items.
Solicit Synopsis:
- This is where it all began! Still "The World's Greatest Comix Mag!" And now - the return of the Mole Man!

Thank You City of Barrie
We are so proud of our partnership with the City of Barrie – their support of Kempenfest has been astounding over the years. And this year, Barrie City Council voted to give us some relief in our event permit fees due to the reduced space we have had to deal with last year and this year. A special thank you to Onalee Groves and the rest of the Cultural Department staff who put together a report on Kempenfest (unsolicited we might add) to demonstrate the impact Kempenfest has on our community, and as a result their recommendation for relief sailed through council.
The Kempenfest team is hard at work on planning for 2017. The city has confirmed we will have the same general space we had last year – which most people seemed to enjoy – more compact – less walking. The Robertson Midway will anchor the event in Centennial park – and the Main Stage will anchor the event in the South Shore Park. We anticipate the arts and crafts exhibits will be trimmed back (more art, less crafts) so for those who make this show a must-see, you will not be disappointed.
Application forms for Huronia Festival of Arts & Crafts are available HERE
Dates for next year's event are Saturday August 5th through Monday August 7th.
The entertainment committee is hard at work, with the goal of putting on the best weekend entertainment ever. Stay tuned for announcements in the coming weeks.

It has been a busy, but successful month for us in Ethiopia!
With 75% of deliveries occurring at night, the Solar Suitcase at the Wejego Yato Health Center has provided light for women to give birth safely. It has also significantly increased the number of women coming to the health center for delivery over the past four months. Thanks to the WE CARE Solar Suitcase, the Wejego Yato Health Center has seen many improvements in birth outcomes and safer deliveries!
Another amazing accomplishment in Ethiopia: The KHI-Ethiopia nutrition project in Halaba Special Woreda helped treat and cure 112 children with severe acute malnutrition in the past month! Health education programs, on topics such as complementary feeding and malaria, also provided 8,170 caretakers information in order to prevent health issues. What a busy and life-saving month!

Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A. seems to have gained back its momentum after having struggled due to natural disasters and recalls for the past two years. Its sales for December 2012 had increased by 9%. For 2012, Toyota sold 2.08 million vehicles. This is 27% higher than its sales in 2011. This stood for an increase of over 400,000 units compared to the previous year.
This beat Toyota's internal predictions. CEO Jim Lentz said that in 2012, Toyota obviously had a "breakout year" as it achieved sales that are almost double that of the industry. He also said that the company anticipates that in 2013, it will do better than the industry once more with 9 launches scheduled this year. Toyota estimates that in 2013, the industry will reach sales of 14.7 million units.
But Lentz clarified that since this prediction was made 90 years ago, it could be updated after having had a strong performance in the fourth quarter.
It's also likely that Toyota will revise its internal sales target of 2.15 million units for next year, which stands for just a modest increase of 100,000 units. Lentz said that the company has been described as being too conservative. Toyota Motor Sales' market share for 2012 is once again on the rising trend.
The combined 2012 share for the Toyota, Scion and Lexus brands increased by 12.9% to 14.4%, putting an end to two years of steep plunges. It had its largest share in 2009 with 17%. The following year, Toyota's share dropped to 15.2% as it felt the impact of the recalls due to unintended acceleration cases and the resulting lawsuits.
In 2012, Toyota Division sold 1.83 million vehicles, about 27% higher than the previous year. Lexus ended the year with a 23% increase in sales with 244,166 units sold. Toyota Division was again named as the top brand in the sales category that's truly relevant – retail sales. It posted almost 133,000 vehicles. Toyota had lost this title in 2011 due to supply interruptions related to the earthquake.

Sun: 12.00pm - 3.00pm
Many members of the Cathedral community find that belonging to a small worship or study group of ten or so members provides an ideal context in which to discuss, explore and question the Christian faith, as well as providing opportunities to put it into action.
Founded over a hundred years ago, originally as part of a national network, this is certainly the longest running of our groups! The Guild tries to be a stimulating and challenging forum, encouraging members to think more deeply about the scriptures and to develop their own faith. The original format of Guild meetings continues observing the three aspects of worship, fellowship and study.
Members' homes provide the venue for the group, which usually meets at 7.30pm once a month. The evening begins with a short act of worship using a liturgy similar to Compline. This is followed by light refreshments. The group then studies and discusses a passage from the Bible (usually a single book is studied over a number of months). Anyone may contribute, but nobody is pushed into saying anything. The meeting usually finishes at about 9.30pm.
The Guild meets once a month throughout the year, except August.
Contact: Roland and Penrose Lock, tel. 01733 551040.
New members to this friendly, informal study group are always welcome. It usually meets during the daytime to follow short courses of Bible study in the St. Kyneburgha Chapel (in the Cathedral's South Transept).
Contacts: Sonia Hitch, tel. 01832 280692.
This small fellowship group meets monthly on Wednesday evenings in the Minster Precincts.

When Jason Roselli settled into the batter's box in the seventh inning on Sunday, he figured something special was about to happen.
He was right.
For the wrong reason.
"I thought it was going to be my last at-bat as a PVI student," said Roselli, a senior second baseman for Paul VI.
As it turns out, that at-bat was the start of a remarkable playoff run for Roselli and the Eagles.
The No. 13 seed in the Non-Public South A tournament, Paul VI began the post-season with a 12-13 record and zero fanfare.
But the Eagles have upset fourth-seeded Red Bank Catholic -- at the time, the No. 9 team in the state in the Newark Star Ledger rankings -- as well as fifth-seeded Immaculata to advance to Friday's sectional semifinals against top-seeded Gloucester Catholic.
"This is the best time for this to happen to me, at the end of my senior year," Roselli said. "It's awesome."
Roselli, who lives in West Deptford, is a program player who waited his turn to make an impact at the varsity level.
"He's stood up for us this year," Paul VI coach Pat Fisher said of Roselli, who is batting .320.
With his team trailing by 3-1 in the seventh inning at Red Bank Catholic, Roselli led off with a single that ignited the rally that paved the way to a 6-5 victory.
"The biggest game of my life," Roselli said of the win over Red Bank Catholic.
In an 11-6 victory over Immaculata on Wednesday, Paul VI rallied from a 6-3 deficit. The Eagles scored five runs in the eighth inning, with Roselli delivering a two-run triple.
"I always thought we had it in us," Roselli said of the Eagles' post-season magic. "It took the playoffs to bring it out."

Dia de los Meurtos
What is Dia de los Murtos?
Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead, is a Mexican holiday to remember and celebrate friends and family that have died.
Where is it celebrated?
It is celebrated in Central and Southern Mexico on November 1st and 2 nd.
Townspeople dress up ghouls, ghosts, mummies, and skeletons and parade through the town.
Special all night burning candles are lit to remember passed loved ones.
My Opinion of Dia de los Muertos
Dia de los Muertos would, in my opinion, be very fun to celebrate. It would be very cool to dress up and have the face paint. It's also important to celebrate and remember our loved ones.
Dia de los Muertos originated in Mexico, whereas Halloween began in Ireland. Halloween is more a tradition to have fun and dress up whereas Dia de Los Muertos is more to remember loved ones and celebrate their afterlife. Sugar skulls and La Catrina are the symbols usually associated with Dia de los Muertos, and pumpkins and ghosts to Halloween.

THE DAILY Mail's royal correspondent Richard Kay should remember that the title does not confer royalty on the holder. Arriving in Omagh on Prince Charles's plane last week, he stuck so close to the royal party that when Prince Charles was on walkabout Mr Kay is reputed to have received a call on his mobile phone. It was the Buckingham Palace press office asking him to stand a bit further back from the Prince - on television he looked like part of the walkabout.
THE MIRROR Group has been going all out to prove what a dynamic, thrusting, businesslike place it is in the aftermath of the Sporting Life fiasco. David Montgomery even sent staff a widely leaked memo about the strength of Mirror Group's editors and the weaknesses of John Mullholland. Interesting, then, that this efficient organisation's website is so laughable: it lists Bridget Rowe (above) as editor of the Sunday Mirror - the current editor is Colin Myler; it says The People is edited by Len Gould - er, no, it's Neil Wallis; at the helm of the Daily Record it lists Terry Quinn - wrong again, it's Martin Clarke. The site maintains that Sporting Life, which is not currently on sale, has a circulation of 67,000, and that Kelvin MacKenzie is managing director of Live TV. It seems that even the most modern and interactive of new technologies is unable to keep up with the Mirror Group's rapid turnover of editors.
AMERICAN JOURNALISM has lost another one. Just a couple of months after two established hacks in Washington and Boston were found out for making things up, the Boston Globe has dispensed with the services of the improbably named Mike Barnicle. No too-eager young beaver he, Barnacle has been on the Globe for years and was reportedly paid $250,000 a year. First, at the beginning of the month he was caught out stealing jokes from a comedian's book and lying about it. Then, last week, a column from 1995 that was to be reprinted in Reader's Digest was discovered by the Digest to be fake. The column told the emotional story of a black child and a white child who became friends when they were both in hospital with cancer. Frankly, even if it had been true, such a saccharine tale would have deserved punishment.
NICE TO see that The Guardian is still sanguine about its spelling mistakes. From Friday's corrections column: "We spelt Morecambe, the town in Lancashire, wrong again on Page 2, G2, yesterday. We often do."
NO ONE grudges a newspaper editor the right to relax and take a break. At least, no one except executives at The Times who moan that Peter Stothard rarely graces the newspaper these days. After a sojourn with Rupert Murdoch at his Idaho gathering, the Times editor spent a week in New York looking at his paper's American distribution.
Next came a holidays, reportedly in Turkey and in Italy. Now he's bought a boat to play on when he's not at his home on the Thames. But not all the execs are grumbling about their leader's absence: one assistant editor has taken three months off.Reuse content

The consistency of his vision has made him one of the most influential and iconoclastic designers of the last decade. Born in Limbourg, Belgium in 1959, he studied at the Royal Academy Antwerp, and was one of the first wave of talent to emerge from the city in the early 1980s (known as the 'Antwerp Six'). In 1984 he began a 3-year assistantship with Jean Paul Gaultier. He then founded his own enterprise, 'Maison Martin Margiela' in Paris in 1988 showing his first womenswear collection (Spring-Summer 1989) that year.
