wonderful Roz:))
I'm in love with your work! How big is the canvas you work on? I've started with oils recently and I have such trouble getting the graceful strokes that characterize all of your pieces!
Thanks so much, alexandra. This one is actually a tiny 20 × 15 cm, not ideal for getting graceful strokes! The largest I usually work on is 60 × 60 cm.
Wonderful light for such a very small PAINTING!
Thanks so much, Randy!!
that's really good
I will say it again Roz, if I could collect you , I would. You rock!!!
Thanks so much, RVG!! Hey, I'm very collectable (read affordable!! LOL)

Yohan Cabaye has admitted he is unhappy with his bit-part role at Paris St Germain.
The midfielder moved to the Parc des Princes from Premier League side Newcastle in January but has struggled to command a regular first-team place.
The 28-year-old is not used to regularly coming off the bench and will consider his future if his limited playing time at PSG affects his role with the France national team, where he regularly starts.
Speaking to L'Equipe, the former Lille man said: "You have to accept being a substitute, but I don't resign myself to that. In training sessions, I have to give my best and show my desire to play.
"When I am on the pitch, I feel it is not perfect and that I often have to leave too soon. But I know the coach and staff have to make choices and I respect that.
"Have I spoken to Laurent Blanc? No. What do I tell him? I am 28 years old and not new to the job. But I am not satisfied with the situation.
"Am I completely happy? To be honest, no. It is a new situation for me, but I don't complain. It is the first time I haven't played regularly for my club.
"With the French team, if one day the national team coach decides to play me less because I don't play often enough for my club, then I would need to take stock with my representatives."
Cabaye may have alerted a number of Premier League clubs to his situation after adding: "Do I sometimes miss England? Yes. Sometimes I think about it, but I immediately sweep that away because it would cause distraction.
"I am at the Parc des Princes and I need to find the right atmosphere."Reuse content

When the Sun found
A human, a man named
Jack, they fooled around.
The Sun had a child, and
In her disgust, she left it
In a field on Jack's home
Planet. The mother of all
Things, or Mother Earth,
Found the child and raised
It, naming the baby girl
Alicia, with Arden after
The human woman who
Came to check on her
Many days. Alicia had
One side effect of her
Mother's identity:
She shone. She was a
Star, and she glowed,
Lighting Mother Earth
Up when she lay next
To the flowers,
Causing them to bloom.

Get the Town newsletter
17:09 12th February 2011
A feisty 'War of the Roses' clash ended in a goalless stalemate, which meant that Town continued their unbeaten start in the League to 2011.
Neither side claimed bragging rights this Saturday afternoon in a very even encounter. Anthony Pilkington went closest for the Terriers before Peter Clarke showed excellent reactions to clear a Reuben Reid effort of the line.
The game started in a scrappy fashion with Oldham receiving the first free kick of the game in the second minute as a result of a foul on Filipe Morais by Gary Naysmith. The on loan Leeds winger Aidan White took the free kick and found Reuben Hazell at the back stick who sent his header well wide of Ian Bennett's goal - who was making his 500th career appearance.
Oldham started the better of the sides and had their second effort on goal in the 8th minute this time forcing Bennett into his first save of the game. A neat slide rule pass from Morais released Oumare Tounkara down the side of Town's penalty, where he immediately struck an effort forcing Town's 'keeper into a neat diving save.
Town's best move of the game to date came in the 13th minute courtesy of some neat play between Lee Peltier and Scott Arfield. The latter broke from midfielder and played a cross field pass out to Gary Roberts who took the ball in his stride and with his weaker foot struck a timid shot into the hands of Ben Amos.
Brilliant work from Anthony Pilkington and Peltier in the 22nd minute had Oldham scrambling at the back to clear the danger. A long, raking pass from Peltier played Pilkington in behind Cedric Evina; the winger then showed excellent timing to hit a fine ball across the front of Amos's box who had Hazell to thank for clearing the danger before Alan Lee had time to get a shot away.
A foul on 'Pilks' in the 27th minute allowed Town the chance to get Jamie McCombe and Peter Clarke forward from the back and pressurise the Oldham defence. The recipient of the foul - Pilkington - took the free-kick and found McCombe at the back stick who saw his header go high over Amos's cross-bar.
BOOKING - After a series of fouls on Alan Lee, Reuben Hazell eventually found his way into Mr Woolmer's book for a heavy foul on Town's number 19 in the 32nd minute.
Town forced Amos into an excellent save minutes later from a rasping Pilkington free-kick. Oldham's Tounkara was penalised for fouling Peltier 25 yards out which allowed Pilks to step up and hit a trademark strike which was saved at full length by the Latics stopper.
BOOKING - Scott Arfield was next to go into the referees book for a foul on Chris Taylor in the 40th minute.
Town's big centre back, McCombe, was back in the action again in the 43rd minute heading over from a well directed Gary Roberts free-kick.
In the first minute of the half a mix it up in the Oldham backline between Amos and Hazell offered a glorious opportunity to the poaching Lee. A lack of communication meant that Hazell headed the ball past an on rushing Amos leaving the 'keeper stranded, luckily for the pair, Hazell managed to put in a last ditch saving to tackle to block Lee's effort.
The Latics immediately hit back and produced two excellent chances both which were excellent cleared off the line by Town. Firstly, Aidan White snuck in unmarked at the back stick to meet a Morais cross on the half volley, which was excellently parried by Bennett. Then, moments later, a good piece of trickery by White found Reid unmarked whose effort was expertly cleared off the line by Town's talismanic skipper Peter Clarke.
BOOKING - Chris Taylor received the third caution of the half in the 53rd minute for showing dissent towards Mr Woolmer.
Town produced their first effort of the half in the 54th minute when a neat knock down by McCombe found the unmarked Arfield 20 yards out, who fired high over the Latic's goal.
SUB - Lee Clark made the first change of the game in the 55th minute when Alan Lee was replaced by Danny Cadamarteri.
BOOKING - Jamie McCombe managed to find his way into the referee's book in the 60th minute for what looked like an act of dissent.
In the 64th minute Pilks almost caught out Amos at his near post with an in swinging cross from the left. The winger cut in on to his right foot and curled an effort which struck the right hand post of Amos's goal and bounced away to safety.
Another half chance fell Town's way in the 70th minute, however, Roberts was unable to control his volley from 12 yards which flew high into the Pink Link Stand.
BOOKING - Cedric Evina was the third Latic to receive a caution in the 73rd minute following hefty challenge on Pilkington.
SUB - Paul Dickov made his first change of the afternoon in the 76th minute replacing the injured Taylor with Ritchie Jones.
BOOKING - Reuben Reid was booked for a cynical foul on Jack Hunt in the 79th minute - the resulting free-kick came to nothing for Town.
Town had a scare at the back in the 80th minute when good play for Morais had the beating of Hunt, however, Peter Clarke covered superbly to deny the winger a chance to find a fellow Latic.
SUB - Oldham made their second change of the game in the 82nd minute when Reuben Reid left the field to be replaced by Warren Feeney.
An excellent piece of individual play by Danny Cadamarteri produced a brilliant defensive header from the former Town centre back Neal Trotman. 'Cads' delivery from the right looked destined to be headed in by the waiting Pilkington before Trotman stole in to head away the danger.
BOOKING - Town's Anthony Pilkington received the seventh booking of the game for what the referee deemed was a foul on Morais in the 84th minute.
SUB - Lee Clark made his second change of the game in the 87th minute bringing on birthday boy Benik Afobe for Gary Roberts.
McCombe was once again making a nuisance of himself in the 89th minute, but sadly for Town, his header from a Pilkington corner went wide of Ben Amos's goal.
Town's team (4-3-3):
Ian Bennett; Gary Naysmith, Peter Clarke (c), Jamie McCombe, Jack Hunt; Lee Peltier, Kevin Kilbane, Scott Arfield; Gary Roberts (Benik Afobe 87), Alan Lee (Danny Cadamarteri 55), Anthony Pilkington.
Unused subs: Nick Colgan, Chris Atkinson, Aidan Chippendale, Lee Novak, Anthony Kay,
Town: Arfield (40), McCombe (60), Pilkinton (84)
Oldham: Hazell (32), Taylor (53), Evina (73), Reid (79)
Gate: 16176

Sometimes personalized care is the very best and she has it :-)
I love Whitney!!!!
I love going to visit Whitney to get groomed. She is so nice and reasonably priced. You can tell she loves dogs and while I am getting groomed, it gives my dad lots of time to run errands. It is nice supporting local business owners instead of throwing money to those larger chains. YUCK! Plus, I get a better haircut with Whitney!

Peoples Store RACIST RUDE EMPLOYEE Lambertville New Jersey
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Two weeks ago I bought a dresser from this store. I sent my mover up to pick it up. He had the ticket and recept number. The woman behind the counter was polite and helpfull. However, the pail employee described to me as "having a pony tail" said to my mover and his assistant, both African Americas, "you boys wait outside." My Mover said "you will address me as Mr. Graus not boy." Since Mr. Graus is six feet tall and powerfully built, the poney tailed employee kept his mouth shut. I have seen African Americans shop in this store and the idea of a store dealing with the public employing such a rude racist is unconscienceable.

See all reviews for this product Shoei CWR-1 Photochromic Pinlock Shield Haris - Athens, Greece Great idea, works well "I bought this visor for my RF1200 helmet. It fits perfectly. It adjusts its darkness according to the conditions, but do not expect it to ever get as dark as a dark smoke screen. It also takes a few minutes until it darkens. For example if you put the helmet on and exit a garage, it will take a few minutes until it darkens so initially the sun bothers me. I use it in Greece and SoCal where the sun is usually bright and during the day I also have to wear sunglasses because my eyes are sensitive to too much light. On the contrary when I used a dark smoke visor I was fine. At night it turns completely clear, which helps if you go to work at daytime and leave at night. It saved me from carrying two visors. Look at the pics below for the change of darkness after a few minutes based on full sunshine or low light within a garage. I would give it 5 stars if It could get as dark as a dark smoke screen."

Nelson is currently CIO at the Ministry of Justice and government CIO. He will succeed Philip Langsdale, former DWP CIO who passed away over Christmas.
Nelson is expected to take a full-time role as DWP CIO, with the position of government CIO unlikely to be filled. Cabinet Office chief operating officer Stephen Kelly is understood to favour the role of chief technology officers in driving the reform agenda above that of the CIO.
Permanent secretary at the DWP Robert Devereux said: "I am delighted to welcome Andy Nelson to the Department as we make our welfare reforms a reality, including the imminent start of Universal Credit, the Personal Independence Payment and the Benefit Cap.
"Mr Nelson's wealth of experience prior to him joining the Civil Service, together with his recent role in the Ministry of Justice and as Government CIO place him in a unique position to help us as we enter a critical period in the transformation of the welfare system."
Nelson said: "I am delighted to be taking on the role of DWP CIO and look forward to working with the Secretary of State, Robert Devereux and the team at DWP in delivering the transformation of the welfare system."
A spokesman from the Cabinet Office said the department does not yet have an update as to whether the post of government CIO will be filled.

Stopover in Torre Grande 39°54'.4N 08°31'.0E
... so we've decided to leave and sailed to Torre Grande. There we stayed on a buoy for the day and the night. The next morning the weather forecast made us move towards the town of Torre Grande. The wind was supposed to be in the North East force 6 and in the end it was all over the place and not strong at all but that was fine. After having to anchor twice because the first time we were too close to the beach (less than 200 meters from it) ...
Back down to Cagliari

Heading off to Alghero
Left our lovely space behind today to head off to Alghero, a medium sized town on the top of the west coast of Sardinia.

Tea party: Lady Thatcher and Mr Brown outside Number 10 last year
Lady Thatcher will return to Chequers this weekend for a private lunch with Gordon Brown that will seal one of the unlikeliest relationships in British politics.
It will be only the second time that the former Prime Minister has visited the Buckinghamshire estate since she was forced out of office in 1990.
Mr Brown invited her after she expressed an interest in the house during her high-profile visit to Downing Street last year.
She will join the Premier and his family on Saturday, for what is hoped will be a chance to admire the grounds and gardens of the Elizabethan mansion in the sunshine of late summer.
Lady Thatcher developed a great fondness for Chequers during her 11 years as Premier. Friends have described how she cried as she left the house for the last time.
She has returned only once, for the unveiling of a stained glass window bearing her coat of arms in 1995.
News of her visit is likely to revive the controversy that followed her appearance at Mr Brown's side on the doorstep of No 10.
But it comes at a useful time for the Prime Minister, who is desperate to persuade voters that he remains a 'conviction politician' in the Thatcher mould, despite being at rock bottom in the opinion polls.
Last year Tories accused the Labour leader of exploiting a 'frail old woman' for political purposes, only to be slapped down by the lady herself and her closest allies, led by Lord Tebbit.
Labour MPs, for their part, expressed horror that their leader could associate himself with the party's longstanding enemy.
Mr Brown had devoted his early political career in Scotland to opposing Lady Thatcher and her policies, and his newfound enthusiasm for his predecessor was striking.
As an ambitious young MP in 1989, he had published a book entitled 'Where there is greed: Margaret Thatcher and the betrayal of Britain's future'.
He had also previously distanced himself from the praise lavished on Lady Thatcher by Tony Blair.
Lady Thatcher's visit to Downing Street came at the height of Mr Brown's triumphal first few months as Premier and fuelled speculation that he was preparing to call a general election in the autumn.
He invited her after she wrote to him to congratulate him on taking office.
The Iron Lady took tea with the family, brought toys for Mr Brown's young sons John, four, and Fraser two, and told them about her new cat.
Lady Thatcher's willingness to pose with Mr Brown last year was seen in some quarters as a deliberate dig at David Cameron, who has distanced himself from her legacy.
Lord Tebbit praised Mr Brown for his 'principled conduct', and suggested he was the real heir to Margaret Thatcher.

Do you ever create scenarios or situations you may encounter with others and try to solve them before they actually exist -- and does this lead to false judgments and misunderstandings? How do you continue to work with someone who is insecure, insincere, and threatened by you, but is definitely not going anywhere because the CEO believes in him?

Patients across the EU will be given the right to seek medical treatment in other countries if they face "undue delays" back home, under plans unveiled yesterday.
In a significant extension of power to the individual, health authorities across Europe will be obliged to pay a patient's medical costs if proper treatment cannot be provided.
Markos Kyprianou, the European health commissioner, welcomed the initiative, which is likely to take some years to implement fully. He said: "The healthcare that patients need is sometimes best provided in another EU country.
"This will help unlock huge potential for European cooperation to help improve efficiency and effectiveness of all EU health systems, while respecting national responsibility for their organisation and financing."
The changes will mean that a British pensioner waiting for a hip replacement will have the right to seek treatment in France if they have to wait too long back home. But they would have to seek permission from their health authority before travelling abroad for hospital treatment. Under the current rules patients tend to travel abroad under two circumstances: if their local health authority arranges overseas treatment, usually as a way of cutting waiting lists; or if the patient takes a risk of paying up front in the hope that they will be reimbursed.
The new rules, which will be subject to a lengthy consultation, are designed to be much simpler. The guiding principle will say that a patient's health authority will be expected to pay their medical costs in a chosen EU country if they face an "undue delay" at home.
The European Commission launched a public consultation yesterday after the European court of justice ruled in 1998 that Luxembourg's national health system had to reimburse the medical costs of two patients who sought treatment elsewhere. The court ruled that healthcare services were governed by EU treaty rules on the free movement of services.
The rules, which will have to be agreed by the EU's 25 members, could cost the NHS millions of pounds a year. Patients' medical costs, up to the value of treatment on the NHS, would have to be reimbursed if the right conditions are met.

|Reviews for Spin Me Some Sad Story
| unalcuna chapter 1 . 3/15/2011
I had a great time reading your story, it's so well written and gave a complete rendering of Bella's personality.
I loved it. Great job :)
| Isha-libran chapter 1 . 6/25/2010
Loved this. I could see this being Bella's back story, from how she got her name (always hated the single 'l' version) to the deal, and finally meeting Dean in hell.
Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed reading this. )
| catie-writes-things chapter 1 . 5/6/2009
Great insight into an under-appreciated character.
| SakuyaMikafan chapter 1 . 3/27/2009
I loved this story. very tragic and dramatic like a shakespearean play. I wish there were more stories that played with bella's emotions so well. Good is so beautifully written.
| DaeDreemer chapter 1 . 2/12/2009
This is dark and wonderful. I think its very true to character. Thank you for writing it.
| Merkaba7734 chapter 1 . 1/14/2009
I must say I absolutely love this. Bela was one of my favorite characters ever, and I was so heartbroken when she died/ her deal was up. I always wanted to know more about her, and this really tied together all the information we learned about her. Bela is completely in character.
I also loved the irony that she was chained to a swing in hell. Also, her encounter with Alastair- she was always broken- and her seeing Dean were both great. The ending was brilliant as well- so Bela.
One thing though, she spelled 'Bella' as 'Bela.' Also you left out 'did' in the sentence "in a way that she [did] not wish to please him."
I hope you keep writing stories- especially Bela ones. xD
| shesamonster chapter 1 . 1/14/2009
I read this over at LJ a little while ago, but I just thought I'd say I loved this story so much. That's probably a decent compliment considering I hate Bela enough that I was happy she's burning in hell. But anyway, fantastic job on this; it was eerie & dark in a way that's different than most Supernatural fanfiction.

Vets can consider a wider range of options when it comes to neutering cats and dogs. This was the message from veterinary reproduction specialist Angelika von Heimendahl at a recent seminar on reproductive health.
Vets can consider a wider range of options when it comes to neutering cats and dogs. This was the message from veterinary reproduction specialist Angelika von Heimendahl at a recent seminar on reproductive health.
Mrs von Heimendahl, who runs the Cambridge based referral centre Veterinary Reproduction Service said: "Globally the approach to neutering varies hugely. Although neutering is considered as part of responsible pet ownership in the UK and performed routinely in every practice in the country, at the other end of the scale, in Germany and Scandinavia for example, this is considered mutilation and is prohibited by law.
"Despite the very low neutering rates in these countries (7% in Norway, compared around 80% in the UK) they do not have a problem with stray dogs, indicating that there are other factors such as education and attitudes to dog ownership that play a major role.
"In other continental countries, bitch spaying is usually by ovariectomy rather than ovariohysterectomy," she added.
"Some practices are now successfully offering clients a range of options, including medical castration, especially with new reproduction drugs recently introduced onto the market. The non-surgical contraceptive slow-release implant, deslorelin – a GnRH superagonist – lasts for six months, making medical castration a more practical solution for many owners."
And although off-licence, Mrs Von Heimendahl also suggested that deslorelin can be used in bitches as an alternative to spaying. She said: "While neutering can have advantages in terms of reduced incidence of certain cancers, there are also advantages of retaining both male and female dogs intact.
"Some cancers are less likely to occur in intact animals, for example there is a reduced risk of transitional cell carcinomas, haemangiosarcomas and osteosarcomas. Obesity and its associated problems are also less of an issue, which is a particular benefit for owners where the necessary reduced calorie intake post neutering is difficult to achieve."
Chris Taylor, technical director of seminar organiser Virbac, added that medical castration can offer dog owners the opportunity to "test run" neutering of their animal, and pointed out that this is particularly useful for behavioural issues in young male dogs.
He said: "Twice yearly implants offer a practical alternative for clients, whether as a short or longer-term solution. As a solution focussed business, we are constantly striving to put forward a choice of options which can only have benefits for client and practice alike."

This course explores neuropsychology and neuroscience as it relates to the clinical practice of music therapy. Students learn about the ways human function (e.g. language, memory, movement) is affected by pathologies (e.g. aphasia, dementia, apraxia), as they come to understand how irregularities inform us about regular brain function. Students explore the way functions of the brain engage in various musical elements (rhythm, melody, preferred music). Students also review published case studies as they evaluate both the historical and modern research findings in neuroscience and music. In addition, students distinguish the brains of musicians from non-musicians, analyze how the arts impact neural development, and explore how music perception and production research can be applied to clinical practice.

Adafruit Assembled Pi Cobbler Breakout + Cable for Raspberry Pi [Model B]
Now that you've finally got your hands on a Raspberry Pi® Model B , you're probably itching to make some fun embedded computer projects with it. What you need is an add on prototyping Pi Cobbler from Adafruit, which can break out all those tasty power, GPIO, I2C and SPI pins from the 26 pin header onto a solderless breadboard. This set will make "cobbling together" prototypes with the Pi super easy. Designed for use with Raspberry Pi Model B AND Model A, both revisions. This will not work with the Raspberry Pi 2 or Model A+ or B+ If you have one of those, check out Adafruit's 40-pin version of this item.
This Cobbler is in a compact shape, which is the least bulky way to wire up. Adafruit also have the fancier T-Cobbler.
The Pi Cobbler mini kit comes with a fully assembled PCB with socket and headers as theyll as a 26 pin ribbon cable No soldering required! The cable plugs between the Pi computer and the Cobbler breakout. The Cobbler can plug into any solderless breadboard (or even a prototyping board like the PermaProto). The Cobbler PCB has all the pins labeled nicely so you can go forth and build circuits without keeping a pin-out printout at your desk. Adafruit think this will make it more fun to expand the Pi and build custom circuitry with it.
The Adafruit Pi Cobbler is compatible with Model A and Model B both versions 1 and 2 of the Raspberry Pi Computer - for version 2 computers, note that the GPIO #21 has been replaced with GPIO #27 and that the I2C pins are now I2C port #1 instead of #0. All other pins are the same. This Cobbler is not compatible with the Model B+ unless you have a GPIO downgrade cable
Please note, this kit only contains a 26 pin ribbon cable (in slimming Adafruit Black) and assembled Cobbler. The Raspberry Pi, breadboard, breadboarding wires, cables, case, power supply, and other components are not included! Adafruit do stock many of those items in the shop, so check those out as theyll!
What is the Raspberry Pi® ? A low-cost ARM GNU/Linux box.
The Raspberry Pi® is a single-board computer developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation with the intention of stimulating the teaching of basic computer science in schools. The design is based on a Broadcom BCM2835 system on a chip (SoC), which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, VideoCore IV GPU, and 256 megabytes of RAM. The design does not include a built-in hard disk or solid-state drive, instead relying on an SD card for booting and long-term storage. The Foundation plans to support Fedora Linux as the initial system software package/distribution, with support for Debian and Arch Linux as theyll - Wikipedia.
Raspberry Pi® is a trademark of the Raspberry Pi Foundation.

Maybe it's because I have a toddler boy, but I'm kind of burnt out on trains. We can only assume you are too, so we decided to revamp and update our Green Central Station website. For those of you thinking "Trains? What are you talking about?" if you didn't notice, all the better. Basically we tried to play off the Green Central Station theme in our old website and subtly inserted train notions here and there since the website was the "depot" for all things green in the County. Needless to say, some loved it, some got confused so we moved on.
We are happy to introduce our new version of livegreenhoward.com, Live Green Howard. No theme needed. We re-organized the content into 3 categories – Live (What You Can Do), Green (Resources) and Howard (What We Do).
This website speaks for itself. We filled the background with bright, local pictures taken in your neighborhoods. Howard, our friendly green monster, will lead you along with tips for green living and fun interactive kids games in our Kids Zone. We hope you find the new layout functional and can easily find answers to all your questions. If not, we're still just an email or phone call away.Lindsay DeMarzo OES staff September 2014

Working with Tim on my first Cosplay shoot was not only fun but I also got to learn a few things about posing, Tim created a very comfortable and relaxed environment which made the experience a positive one, I would definitely recommend dreamcoat photography.
I was expecting it to be a lot more awkward but it was basically just like hanging out with my dad!

Yesterday, there was a terrible accident in Seattle.
"ac·ci·dent - an undesirable or unfortunate happening that occurs unintentionally and usually results in harm, injury, damage or loss."
Sure, that's the definition, but what that definition fails to answer is "Why?"
If you're like me, your eyes and ears were probably glued to radio and TV reports yesterday morning when the KOMO-TV helicopter crashed in Seattle near the Space Needle. Sadly the pilot and news photographer died as a result. I pray that God will comfort the families of those lost and all their co-workers.
In times like these, you may have a scripture that brings you comfort. For me, I often turn to Philippians 4:6-7, where God's word reminds us to be anxious for nothing. And by taking our questions and concerns to Him, His peace, which transcends all understanding, will guard our hearts and minds.
What happened yesterday is truly heartbreaking. My hope is that, in the midst of this tragedy, we will all find comfort in knowing His peace, even though we may never know the answer to "Why?".
In Him,

As the world continues to mourn the loss of those who tragically died in the attack on Nice last week, there was an attack on innocent people in Syria in the early hours of Tuesday morning that was scarcely reported.
Regardless of the reasons why mainstream media outlets choose not to cover this kind of story and plaster the faces of the victims on the front page, the fact of the matter is that at least 73 civilians lost their lives in U.S. airstrikes on a Syrian village and they deserve to be in our thoughts.
Activists say that the majority of people who died when a coalition aircraft dropped bombs on homes in Tokkhar were women and children seeking shelter from the conflict, the Guardian reports.

Adnan al-Housen, an activist from Manbij, said:
The death toll is 117. We could document [the identity of] 73 civilians including 35 children and 20 women. The rest of the dead bodies are charred, or have been reduced to shreds.
It is believed that the innocent civilians were mistaken for jihadist fighters in the U.S. led coalition's fight to seize the city of Manbij from ISIS.

U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said at a press conference in Washington:
I want to say that we're aware of reports of civilian casualties that may be related to recent coalition airstrikes near Manbij city in Syria, which is one of the last junctions connecting Raqqah to the outside world.
Hugely underreported.

He continued:
We'll investigate these reports and continue to do all we can to protect civilians from harm.
Being scrupulously careful to avoid civilian casualties and being transparent about this issue is a reflection of the civilized nature of this coalition.
People have taken to social media to express their frustration at the West's reluctance to cover horrific attacks on innocent people who live in Muslim countries.

This latest attack by the West is the deadliest on non-combatants since the campaign against Islamic State began two years ago.
Our thoughts are with those, all over the world, who have been caught up in this horrible conflict.

5.0 stars 15 totalReview Andrew Thomas
Posted by anonymous
Immediately after my car accident, I was thrown into a whirlwind of paperwork and red tape. I was anxious and lost as to whether the steps I was taking would help or hurt me. A friend pointed me to Andrew and from that moment on, I felt at ease. The last people you want to deal with when you have a concussion are unenthusiastic insurance agents and medical billing departments. I'm so grateful for the help Andrew and Patti have given me this last year and I would recommend them to anyone in my situation, wholeheartedly.

I highly recommend Mr. Thomas. He helped me settle my case with ease. He was genuinely interested in my case and made me feel like a person not just a file on his desk.

My daughter was hit by a drunk driver,a friend recommended Andrew Thomas.As soon as we met Andrew,we knew he was the our Lawyer. we felt very comfortable and confident.
His main concern was my daughters health and recovery.
He was outstanding,his personal assistant,Maggie was wonderful.She always answered any questions or concerns we had.
The firm handled everything for us from start to finish.
He was always very positive, professional and honest.
Andrew jumped right on the case, and fought the insurance company with great confidence. We were EXTREMELY pleased with our settlement.
Not only did we have a phenomenal attorney but, we gained a friend for life.
I highly recommend this firm!!

Andrew Thomas was the best attorney I could have chosen for my case. I'm so glad that I went and talked to him, and that I decided to hire him for my claim. He and his Senior Paralegal, Patti, were always extremely helpful and responsive to any questions or concerns I had about my settlement. They handled the case in an extremely professional manner, and got everything done for me. I did not even want to deal with the at fault driver's insurance company, but with Andrew and Patti in my corner, I did not need to worry about anything. They made things happen. The entire procedure was very smooth. I would recommend Mr. Thomas to any of my family or close friends who might need an attorney. He and his staff exceeded my expectations.

I was involved in a car accident about a year ago through no fault of my own and I suffered injuries. I did not feel that I was getting the response I needed from the other person's insurance company so I decided to seek a lawyers assistance. I wanted a local lawyer for convenience. I found Andrew Thomas on line and I am sure glad I did! From the very beginning, Andrew was kind, concerned, and honest with me. Andrew and the office staff always made me feel welcome and important during my visits to the office, over the phone, and in email correspondence. Everyone I had contact with was very professional and also very personable. When I first met with Andrew, he looked over the information from my case and he was very honest with what he thought the outcome would be. He was upfront with the law firm's fees and let me know up front that he felt that I had a case, but he also let me know that he would tell me if he did not think I had a case. After the settlement came through, Andrew sat down with me and again was very honest with the outcome. He never talked down to me. Andrew's honesty, professionalism, and genuine personality has won me over. I would highly recommend Andrew to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you for making a bad situation better.

Andrew by far exceeded our expectations as a competent, empathetic attorney. He took on my case after another attorney was unable to resolve matters after being retained in 2011. Andrew immediately took charge and basically reconstructed my case from scratch in 2014 and we settled a year later. He was always very candid and forthcoming with imperative information regarding my case. Most of all, he listened to our concerns and gave us guidance every step of the way. We are so grateful to have found such an awesome attorney.

Andrew provided me with excellent legal service. I cannot express how tremendously grateful I am to Andrew for his sincere compassion and legal assistance during one of the most challenging times in my life. Andrew gave practical advice and supplied necessary information to allow me to make my own informed decisions. He guided me through the long and daunting legal process, yet never lost his patience despite my frequent and overwhelming inquiries. He is a man of his word with great ethics and a strong desire to seek justice for his clients. I would highly recommend Andrew Thomas with complete confidence.

If you want a lawyer that will get you everything that you deserve from your accident Then you want Andrew Thomas,that's what he did for me...
Posted by Gladys
When your hurting the last thing on your mind should be dealing with insurance companies. Andrew Thomas handles all the problems that may come with adjusters, medical bills and repairs, and gives you the time to heal properly. Isn't that what every person who is involved in a auto accident deserves? Please call now and save yourself from the hassles and worries someone else may have caused you. Thank you Mr. Thomas and your professional and efficient team.
Posted by Dan
Andrew was recommended to me by a neighbor. Andrew represented me twice, and my wife once. I have nothing but praise for Andrew as he is professional, ethical, and certainly knows his business. He kept me constantly informed and was helpful discussing options, etc. I would recommend him to others without hesitation. While I hope I never experience the situations I experienced that had me contact Andrew, if occurs again Andrew will be my choice.

LAS VEGAS — Until he either shows that he can play or proves that he definitively cannot, Toronto Raptors rookie Bruno Caboclo is going to be defined by ESPN analyst Fran Fraschilla's draft-day quip: "He's two years away from being two years away."
However, a little more than two weeks after the Raptors surprised the NBA by taking the anonymous, long-limbed Brazilian kid with the 20th-overall pick, Caboclo already looks the part of a pro. In the second half of his first league-sanctioned game, a Las Vegas Summer League contest against the Los Angeles Lakers, Caboclo is whistled for impeding the process of a cutting defender. Caboclo unleashes an eye-roll that would make Tim Duncan proud, and looks skyward. After the Lakers score, the Raptors run the ball down the court, and Caboclo drills a three pointer. Caboclo puts his right hand in the air, and sticks out three fingers — a celebratory gesture. A day later, he offers the surest sign that he will acclimate to the NBA just fine: With the third quarter winding down, Caboclo waves off teammate Darington Hobson, preferring a cleared-out floor so he could take the final shot of the frame.
Indeed, Caboclo is not precisely the wide-eyed, naïve kid from the poor Sao Paolo suburb that could have so easily swallowed his actual identity. After all, this is a young man who has been living on his own for the past two years, something he will continue to do in Toronto, despite a pretty significant language barrier. With just two games to his name, the Raptors are cautiously optimistic, with not as much caution as you might expect.
"I love that people said he's two years away from being two years away," Raptors coach Dwane Casey said after the team's second game, on Saturday. "Those people don't know anything about basketball if that's what they think."
In the two games, Caboclo averaged 11.5 points on 8-for-17 shooting, averaging a team-high 28 minutes per game. At summer league, however, the numbers are kind of meaningless; the overall feeling, particularly with a kid who has not sniffed this level of competition at this workload, is more important.
Caboclo showed some things that even the Raptors did not expect. In his summer league debut against the Lakers on Friday, he hit a step-back three-pointer with a hand in his face and drew a foul while fighting for post position, the latter of which was impressive since Caboclo is still a twig. His natural athleticism shone on Saturday against Denver, as he missed what would have been a vicious put-back dunk off of a rebound. However, he also was turned inside out by Lakers guard Kevin Murphy on Friday. He occasionally struggled with spacing during offensive sets, with a tendency to run toward the ball handler when he was unsure of the play. He committed 10 fouls in his 56 minutes, and might have been lucky to get away with that low of a number.
As Caboclo tries to elevate his game over the next few years, it is his physical stature that will be the focus. Caboclo is slight, carrying the typically lanky, undefined frame of a teenager. Through his personal advisor, Eduardo Resende, Caboclo said it was the physical nature of the older players that was the biggest challenge for him.
The coaching staff saw something else: he is struggling to grasp the more complicated defensive coverages of the NBA.
"He reverts to the way he's played for the last few years of his life," said Raptors assistant coach Jama Mahlalela. "The NBA is different in terms of where you jump to the ball, where you channel people. We're playing an aggressive trapping style in summer league, so we're trying to get him up to trap. It's just different for him. Anytime he learns something new, it takes a little while."
"To the naked eye, it's just basketball. But when you coach in the NBA … you understand how technical it is," added assistant coach Jesse Mermuys, who is serving as the summer league team's head coach. "It's a very technical, very difficult game to learn because the players are so great that the schemes have to be really impressive to stop those players. You've got to know what you're doing while you're trying to play as well as you can. It's going to be a process for any young player, especially a player that doesn't speak English."
That hits on perhaps the single biggest factor that could slow Caboclo's progress. English is going to be a problem for Caboclo for at least a little while. Late in the first quarter of the Raptors' second game, Raptors guard T.J. Bray shouted Caboclo's first name three times in an attempt to point him to the proper spot on the floor. By the time Caboclo circled back to the proper spot at the top of the key, the play had already gone awry. After Denver's Will Thomas blew by Caboclo in the fourth quarter of Saturday's game, it was his fellow Brazilian, teammate Lucas "Bebe" Nogueira, who caught Caboclo's attention by chirping instructions to him in his preferred Portuguese. (On the other hand, both players said that they used Portuguese to try to run plays on the other end. It might be a crutch, but it could also be advantageous.)
By all accounts, Caboclo is working hard at picking up English. Resende said he is having conversations away from the arena, but that Caboclo is naturally shy, and the cameras make him uncomfortable. He takes 90-minute English lessons each day. According to Resende, one of the first phrases Caboclo insisted on learning was, "Where do I go?" That had to please the coaches.
Still, Caboclo is not even 19 yet, and trying to navigate a new professional situation. It is going to take some time.
"Sometimes I start going too quickly, wanting to coach him and overcorrect him," said Mahlalela, who ran the Raptors' pre-draft workouts with Caboclo in Houston. "And I have to say, 'No, Jama, simplify. What's the one thing I want him to learn? What's the one thing right now that I need him to learn? And let's just focus on that, add one thing And the next time we'll add the next thing in.' It's a slow process.
"From the first workout in Houston, the very first one we had, he's come leaps and bounds. Language is the first thing. His flow for the game, his understanding of the game, is there. It's just, can he understand English? But it's coming. … Every single day, about something new, there is that little twinkle in his eye — 'Oh, he gets it.'"
The Raptors are going to have to be patient with Caboclo, but that is not much of a concern — general manager Masai Ujiri is going to insist on it. Casey confirmed that he does not expect Caboclo to be in the team's rotation this year, and that is not a surprise. Unless he is way ahead of schedule, most of his floor time will come on the team's practice court.
However, his time in Vegas has been promising. He naturally gravitates toward the corner beyond the arc, something that pleased Casey. And those arms, which go on forever, will be weapons once he learns where to stand and when to gamble.
"When he goes onto the court, it's his happy time," Resende said, translating for Caboclo. "It's his place, so he feels very comfortable and confident that he can do the things he practices."
In Las Vegas, Caboclo looked the part of an NBA player, not just a mere curiosity. For the Raptors, the hope is modest: Maybe he can cut Fraschilla's estimate in half.

Dreams (Based on the poem by Langston Hughes)
Short Story by: phwlofthenow
Status: Finished
Genre: Flash Fiction
Based on the poem Dreams by Langston Hughes
"Hold fast to dreams." This is the phrase that flashes through my mind if I think of the last few days' decay. "Hold fast to dreams for when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow." My life caved in about two days ago.
Stress for the exams grips me. I have only barely made it through English with a distinction. Now Science and Maths are ahead. I haven't studied for either subject. Yet here I am, sitting at a party, as drunk as hell, in the arms of a guy I don't even know. I've never done heavy drugs. Alcohol was the cheapest and easiest to procure. I'm sixteen years old, but look eighteen, so getting into a club isn't really a problem for me. And the drinks help me to forget. My parents want me to get 90s in my exams. They keep comparing me to their friends' kids and asking why I can only get 80s. That's all they care for. Their dreams. I dream of becoming an actor. No, that doesn't fit into their box. They want a doctor or a lawyer as a son. The fact that I am gay was already too much for them. The thought of that makes my stomach clench. "Order me another tequila." I whisper into the stranger's ear as I hop off his lap and head for the bathroom.
I retch my guts over a toilet. I want to forget. I head back to the party and swallow my tequila in one gulp. The stranger starts kissing me on my neck, but I'm too drunk to resist. I need to forget. Someone hands me a cigarette. Why not? It looks homemade. They say that's dangerous! Oh well. I take a puff. It feels like getting detached from your body. That's how I met Mandrax, my mistress and drug. That night, as I drove home in my mom's car, barely able o see what I was doing, I heard it again. "Hold fast to dreams."
Screw dreams.
I feel like hell. Science was horrible. I have a huge headache from last night and already crave another dose. "Your drugs are quick." I mumble to no one in particular. A quote from "Romeo and Juliet". I have nothing to do, so I head to the school toilets. Everyone knows it's the school's drug hub. "Mandrax." I say to a black kid in a hoodie. "I give you cheap. Three bags 300g for R500." I pull out the cash and hold it under his nose. "Four for R500." I say. "Done." He snatches the money and hands me the drugs. I was going to use the money for drinks, but the white powder gives a much better rush. Right there I roll myself a cigarette. As soon as the smoke enters my body, I'm transported away from this world. 'Tonight is gonna be a ball.' I think. "Hold fast to dreams." My conscience warns.
What dreams?
I step into the party, already high. If you know the clubs, you'll always have a party to go to. Soon I have my regular poison in my hand and am dancing with a hunk behind me. "This drug is taking you too quickly." My conscience breaks through the haze. 'Shut up. Leave me alone. I don't need a conscience.' I think. I take another sip of tequila and whisper into the guy's ear, "I'll be right back." I head to the bathroom and smoke my second last cigarette. Wow. I went through 1,2kg like it was nothing. In one day! Maybe this is dangerous. "My body needs it." My cravings reply. The hesitation disappears. Soon I'm on cloud 9 again, but this cloud has less control. Quickly, before I know what I'm doing, I smoke the last cigarette.
Now I see little creatures on the dance floor with me. The hunk has changed into Orlando Bloom. I'm dancing with Orlando Bloom! "This is perfect." My twisted mind as he kisses me roughly and hard. He fiddles with my pants. No. I try to resist. No. I won't let him! No. Orlando Bloom transforms into a devil, pulling down my pants. No. The creatures are demons. Laughing. Staring. No.
"Hold fast to dreams." I mumble. I'm in an alley somewhere. My jeans are torn. My head hurts. Hell, my whole body hurts. I keep seeing that devil's face as he touches me. No. please, no. in my mind I hear a voice. 'Hold fast to dreams For when I die Life is a broken-winged Bird That cannot fly.'

|3 nights
Duplex penthouse in the center of the Gothic Quarter in the charming Barrio del Born.
The building has an elevator.
Modern apartment with all the comforts for 4 people.
It has two floors with a lounge, with TV, wireless internet, free telephone for local calls, kitchenette with dishwasher, stove and oven, kitchen utensils, cart for purchase.
20 sqm terrace overlooking the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Mar. The terrace has a comfortable table with chairs and sun loungers, breakfast and dinner overlooking the cathedral.
In the beautiful top floor room with queen size bed, exit to another terrace with chairs and fantastic views.
The apartment has air conditioning and heating.
It is near restaurants, bars, supermarkets, the Picasso Museum is a 5 minutes walk and 15 minutes from Las Ramblas and the beautiful Boqueria market.
The streets have plenty day and night life but fortunately the apartment is very quiet to rest. The noise does not reach the room.
Tamnién can walk to the beach where you will find fantastic 'chiringuitos' (beach restaurants) for an aperitif or to eat fresh fish.
It is also very near the metro line and buses.
A really great apartment - well placed for accessing all the sights and just a short stroll from the Ramblas, the beach, port vell and the metro for getting to other parts of the city. The apartment had everything we needed and we loved the terrace for an al fresco breakfast and for chilling after a long day exploring the sights. Absolutely nothing not to like!! Thank you Lucas and Flavia
My husband and I stayed 4 days in Flavia's apartment, which I selected after reading all the positive reviews. For the most part, we were very happy with the choice. The location in the Born district is superb - great restaurants nearby, we were able to walk nearly everywhere, and the Jaume metro station was very handy for traveling to further-out destinations. We liked the terraces, though after one torrential 10-min. rain the seat cushions remained soaked for days, forcing us to eat breakfast at the tiny kitchen counter. Also, the terraces provide no view of the street below, unless you stand at the edge and look down, so it was impossible to people-watch. As other reviewers pointed out, the stairs are an adventure in the middle of the night, but we quickly adapted by leaving a light on downstairs for safety. Other minor inconveniences: the washing machine was a nice amenity, but there was nowhere to hang the wet clothing, and when we departed 2 days later some of it was still damp. And the wifi password was ridiculously long and complex, requiring nearly a half hour of attempts to successfully log on. Our only real dissatisfaction, however, was the uncomfortable bed. Sadly, we awoke each morning feeling exhausted rather than rested. I expect some discomfort when traveling, but a good bed is essential.
The location of this apartment is key. There is so much to do within walking distance, it can keep you busy for days. Restaurants, groceries, bars and shopping are all right there. You can also walk to the many restaurants and bars in the port area across the Main Street. Because the Santa Maria church is a landmark, taxi drivers can take you right home from anywhere you visit in the city, and a taxi stand is right around the corner from the apartment. The apartment itself is clean and pleasant. Although there is a lift, one must walk up two flights of steps to get to the lift, so not a spot for handicapped people.
Lucas, the manager, was very helpful and met us there right on time with the keys and to go over the apartment. Everything went without a hitch!
Great location. Flavia and Lucas were friendly and easy to work with. One terrace would have been great, but two were amazing. They brought great light in to the apartment and were comfortably furnished for hanging out in the fresh air. The church bells were pleasant but not intrusive, and the church providing a great landmark for finding out way home. Apartment included everything we needed including high speed internet, toilet paper, soap and kitchen essentials. I would come back in a heartbeat.
This one-bedroom apartment is directly across the street from the basilica of Santa Maria del Mar, in the lively El Born quarter. The apartment was spotlessly clean. The kitchen and bath are newly installed, highly modern and functional. There is no dishwasher (unless you count me!), but there is a handy dish drying rack. The fridge is a small under-counter unit, and works well. The lower level of the apartment contains the galley kitchen area, a large terrace overlooking the basilica, the bathroom and the living room area. The couch in the living area becomes a pull-out bed. We did not use it, but we did open it and it seemed as comfortable as a pull-out bed can be. A steep but pretty stairway accesses the second level bedroom loft, which has its own smaller terrace with a table and a pretty arbor that provides shade. The bedroom has an air conditioner, which works well.
The apartment is situated on the 5th and 6th (European) levels of the building, There is an elevator that is accessed from the street level by climbing one level of stairs. The door to the street is locked and seems secure. Everything you need is in the neighborhood. A nice little grocery store that has a cute wine cellar is just down the street. The market of Sta Caterina is in the quarter. The Jaume I metro stop is 2-3 blocks away. You can easily walk to El Raval, the Barri Gotic, Barceloneta and the Eixample neighborhoods without using the metro, but it is nice to have when the legs get tired. (Buy the T-10 ticket and share it!)
Although the quarter is very lively, we never heard any street sound when we went to bed. There are hurricane shutter window shades outside that keep out light and noise and the "white noise" of the air conditioner covers street sounds. You do however, hear the church bells that begin ringing on the quarter hour beginning at 7:00. They generally didn't wake us up until after 8, but they do start at 7.
The apartment owner, Flavia, is very good to deal with. Her communication is prompt and clear. She seems to be a very nice and caring person. The person who met us at the apartment, Lucas, was a good communicator and promptly answered my text messages. He met us at the apartment precisely as planned.
We very much enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

We felt as if we were staying in the heart of Barcelona. Right outside our door, every day, there was something going on: performers, speakers, vendors. But we were not on a busy street at all. The location near the church is very special. This is a major landmark in the city of Barcelona. Every morning we enjoyed breakfast on our terrace and we were periodically entertained by the organ music from this church. The restaurants below were very popular late into the night but not noisy at all. We would often return to our neighborhood at midnight and be excited to see our little neighborhood still humming with activity. When do people sleep in Barcelona? The furnishings were lovely, clean and simple. The kitchen was adequate. No need for a large dining area since you have the beautiful terrace right there. The bathroom was GREAT! I want that same shower-head installed in my home! Lots of water pressure; easy to regulate the temperature. The washer is an added bonus. This was week 3 of our trip so we very much appreciated this amenity. Now ... the stairs going to the upstairs can be a bit of a challenge. But so what? In the middle of the night heading to the bathroom, it was an adventure. But really ... to have a 2 story place with another terrace up top makes it worth it. We would definitely stay here again and we will be recommending this place VERY highly to our friends. Thank you Flavia!
