Demons with in angelsMature
What happens when you are dragged in between a war that no one else even knows is going on. Requiem the angel king is framed for a deed that he did not do thrown into the human world to help the one person he is destioned to guide. Rae. Rae is a take no @*%@ detective that never puts up with any ones crap. They are forced together to try and stop an angel gone rogue from taking over Requiems position and ruining all three realms. Sexy King and Patience are thrown into the equation that non of them can get out of
"Please do me a favor and avoid puking on the body." Chief grumbled in his low tone of voice, he sounded like the new batman with serous throat cancer, as he miffed at the Rookie and I., no offense Christian Bale. Chief Nick was beyond pissed, probably because this murder was cutting into his beauty sleep, but he lacked my stunning looks and a good dose of estrogen, so there really was no excuse. It was evident that we were all tired. Black bags layered Nick's under eyes as his jaw was straightened at a hard angle, his pale cheeks as red as a beat. Nick's blond hair was standing up like he had just gotten electrocuted not to long ago. Standing to my full height of 5'5 I shot him a hard look indicating he could be a dick, but I was not putting up with it, which like most thing was the honest to god truth. It seemed odd since he was border line six four and probably out weighed me by a good one hundred pounds. Due to his weight lifter body shape, but like him I was in no mood either. "Tell me chief is this my first crime scene?" I asked calmly, tilting my head to the side, dirty blond locks cascading over my shoulder and down my neck in a pool of gold. Boyd, the Rookie snickered next to me slightly, but I didn't have to look at him for him to silence. Nick's dull blue eyes narrowed at me, the sound of his jaw rearranging sounded almost mechanical. A slow smile made it's way across my face, I did not work for him so it all pleased me, and since he was not my boss, I could let him know it. "No, Rae." He spoke through clenched teeth. "It's Ms. Smith to you." I corrected moving around him showing my badge to the officer on guard of the crime scene. I talked over my shoulder as I did so. "And if you try and make a fool of me again I wont ever help your ass out again." I warned. Boyd followed quickly behind me like he feared without my presence chief would chew him up and spit him out. I did not blame him though, Nick was known for his occasional freak outs, last fall he had slammed an officer through the wall, and lets say it was a little to hard. He had been put on suspension for a little while, and lets not forget he had to pay for the giant hole in the wall he had created. The owners were also not to happy about the damage. I walked through the sea of Manhattan uniforms, already starting to sink into my quiet place, where sounds were not registered and reality was no longer real. It was almost four Manhattan was at its slowest point helping me slip into my happy place. There was no cars on the road except the police cruisers flashing their lights on and off in the night, causing surrounding movements look like they were under a strobe light. It all seemed like a movie scene in the down town ally way, all a horrible nightmare. "Ms. Smith, always ready, you already have your gloves on and shoe covers, and you just entered the scene." A Hispanic voice snapped my eyes to look at the one and only cop I could actually stand. Officer Ruiz was a small man about my height with short cropped black hair and dark brown eyes that carried all of his intelligence. No matter how long he has been on the force he could never pull off cop eyes, which was what made him, him, but what would get him in trouble some time down the line of his work. By the way he held my gaze wearily, despite his friendly tone I knew this case would be a bad one. Not much could get through to this guy except the ones that got to every one, kid deaths had all of the officers on edge, and I prayed this was an elderly person instead. "So what kind of crap are we dealing with, rape? Mutilation?" I inquired blankly pushing all fears of what ever hid behind the dumpster at the end of the ally, into the back of my mind. Only the distant feel of nausea do to my anxiety phased me. "Must be bad to be getting to you, Ruiz." The smiling officer frowned at once, his whole face turning into an open book. In the planes of his expression, it showed the shadow of every crime scene he had ever witnessed, and the slow decadence of his young adult years slipping away to quickly. He looked to be thirty seven when he was only twenty four. He needed a good vacation, hell, we all did. "Did your mom ever tell you it's rude to read people?" Ruiz questioned back, hooking his fingers into the loop of his belt. I laughed softly, it helped ease my nerves, it felt good, like we were two friends just hanging out, minus the body behind us. "Did your mom ever tell you it's irritating to stall?" I spoke again. Like I did before with chief I moved around him to head to the dumpster that was now being photographed by one of the investigators. I was happy they were taking the pictures now since then I could move some of the things around with out worrying about messing up the evidence. I swear, you move one body, one time, and then every body is on your butt about touching things, sighs. Ruiz followed flashing me a quick grin. "Girl I'm Hispanic the only thing my mommy did was spank my ass with my fathers belt." That made us both laugh into the silence of the night. Some officers turning to find the source of the noise. Once we headed to the edge of the dumpster though he fell back to guarded, letting me get a few steps ahead of him, guess he did not want to see the scene over again. The air reeked of the strong scent of garbage and rust, but under it all was something way more capable of grabbing ones attention. A scent that would make any one's animal instincts kick in, and if you were smart, you would flee, run far, far away from the ally. I tried to breath through my nose rounding the corner to stand in the two feet distance between the wall and the garbage. I let my eyes fall down to the ground at the count of three. This was a person? The body that was reduced to so much flesh and meat used to be a walking, talking, feeling woman. The only thing that helped me indicate what sex this victim was, was the very manicured nails of the one and only remaining hand. The smell was now clear, the stale smell of meat. A pool of blood was starting to dry on the pavement turning a darker brown color. I swallowed a few times, fighting down my bodies response to the mangled mess. I tried not to vomit as I breathed slow controlled breaths. The victim had no head, just a neck with a shiny piece of spine cutting though the torn flesh of her neck. No, it was no longer a her, if I wanted to avoid a break down she would have to be an it. It could not be human, it did not have a family some where, or a personality, it had no importance to life or earth. The body was ripped up from waist down, no clothes in the piles of gore. Her lower body was twisted to mangled angles if the bone was still attached to the body, other pieces of her was scattered around behind the dumpster. Which was how some one had found her, a man who had a store right next to the ally had went to throw out some garbage and he saw a piece of her leg poking out from behind the dumpster. Poor SOB must have been shocked to hell. I blinked once more clearing my head from the thoughts. One leg was completely torn from the skeleton laying to the side in a pile of shattered bone and thicker things. Her chest was a neater kill, flesh torn to expose her inner chest cavity. Most of her organs were still there. Her intestines were slightly ripped causing the stench to be intensified, but it looked like the killer only did that by accident since they were eager to get her skin off of her body. They wanted her heart. It was obvious since it was gone and no one had reported a heart on the crime scene. "Her clothes and wallet were found in the dumpster." Ruiz's quiet voice spoke from behind me. He had to be against the farthest wall since it sounded like he was speaking from a distance. I had to understand now since every officer had their weak spots, and Ruiz's weak spots were woman kills, and woman mutilation must be one of the last things he wanted to see. "Her name is Isabelle Fisher, she is thirty, works as a waitress. We think she was snagged walking home after her shift, since she works only a few blocks away." I nodded standing up to let him know I was listening, while I let my eyes take in the scene from a few steps away. Some times clues are easier to be seen from a distance. "Run some finger print tests on the shoes, and mind getting me a copy of all that swell information?" I asked flashing him a small smile from over my shoulder, even when this crimes scene had me wanting to resume the fetal position. Turning back to looking at the scene something small grabbed my attention. What could easily be missed was dark stains streaking the ground, the black trail led a little ways from where the body laid to the wheels of the garbage can. "Yes Boss." Ruiz mumbled behind me, distracted. "Hey, help me move this dumpster." I ordered walking around the body, careful not to step into any of the gore, even if I had plastic shoe covers over my black sneakers. Once I reached the other side of the rusted piece of metal I glanced back over at Ruiz. He furrowed his brows together, but I cut him off before he could ask why. "Just help please." The please must of got him since that was a word I hardly never used. He decided against asking me anything as he moved to the other side without a word. His arms tensed as he placed both hands on his side, I followed his lead and did the same. "Push, now." Ruiz commanded We both gritted our teeth, I pushed, hard bits of metal biting into my skin as the bin squeaked in protest. With the both of us pushing we rolled the can quickly. Both of us stopping at the same time after it was a couple feet away from where it originally was. "Shit." I turned around to see the source of Ruiz's interest, hoping that there was something there that could serve as a decent lead to the murder. It was, yellow chalk was used to make a pentagram on the ground that was once under the garbage can. What? Breaking me from my thoughts was his whistle, the officer shook his head while we both stared down at the drawing. We both seemed to be afraid to even set a foot in it, as we just stood in place where we were. "Nice call, detective." "Thanks but now this complicates everything." "Why?" "If this is a ritual killing, I bet this won't be the last scene like this." A headache started to form at my left temple. I rubbed at my forehead trying to ease down the ache as I tried to search through my brain for any knowledge on ritual kills. I got nothing. Usually murders were for different motives like killing your wife who was having an affair with the mail man. The possibility of finding out who killed the sluty wife is way easier then finding the man who cuts off heads and tears out hearts. Any ways searching for a kill that involves a head and a heart limit's the search dramatically. God, Sherlock did not have pentagrams on his crime scenes, damn it. The two of us stared down at the body for a little bit longer before footsteps echoed behind us. Ruiz turned to check who it was and by the hardening annoyance on his face I guessed it was good old chiefy. I did not mind though since after I give him my thoughts I can go home, and return to my bed. My mood improving at the thought of getting to go home before him. That and he was smart, sometimes his temper and quick judgment got in the way of his job, but usually he was smart, and picked up on things fast. As much as I hated to admit it he was a pretty intelligent guy. "So give me the recap Ms. Smith." Nick's gruff voice demanding as he stood at my side, having big enough balls to let his eyes lay on the body. Nothing passed through his features , the green in Ruiz's cheeks not in either of ours. What we had in common is we were both going cold, bodies were starting to be a regular sight, we were starting to die ourselves. Become empty vessels . Trying to shake the thought I decided to focus on business. "Looks like a ritual kill, but she seems like she went into this willingly, there is not sign of struggle on her wrists." I spoke glancing at the symbol that was in front of us. "I'm going to talk to some of her friends and co workers to see if she was in Wicca." "You think more people were involved?" "Hell yeah I do." I said pointing to the body. "See how it goes from messy to organized quick, it was a group killing, or at least two were involved." I said thinking there was a leader and a helper, and the minion seemed to smart to let his followers screw up. "Creepy shit gets weirder." He mumbled under his breath. I kept my mouth shut since it was a religion. The religion was not creepy, what was done was wrong, but you can't judge a group of people just because of ones action. It was best if I just stayed quiet though, so I tried my best not to say anything, to get his piss attitude at me. People said I did not know how to keep my mouth shut pshhh. "I'll do some research tomorrow and email it to you." Was all I said in return. Chief grunted, knowing that I did not agree on purpose. Again the smart man kept his mouth shut showing that he was not in his worst mood possible. "Have any other evidence for me?" Nick asked as he ran a hand through his short cropped blond hair. I shook my head and spoke to defend myself before he blamed it on my lack of skill, which was so not the case. "No, you should send her shoes for prints since the killer had to pick them up to throw them out, maybe check for skin under her fingernails, but other then that the killer was pretty cautious." I said thinking that it sucked that they were, because I did not want to wait for another crime scene for more evidence, one kill like this was good, fuck you very much. "Great, some prints and skin, better then nothing." Nick bit out gruffly his head falling back on the body which this time I did not follow his gaze. I was going home soon and I did not need the image in my head, it created bad dreams. With that we finished up talking and luckily he let me go home. My motorcycle doing wonders to keep me awake on the ride back to my old two floor house. Any remains of sleep was eliminated by the wind burn on my face, as I plodded back to my doorstep lazily. Keys jingled in my hands trying to mask over the silence of my property. Silence. Loneliness, I was twenty five and did not have a boyfriend, hardly any family, and even fewer friends. Lets hear it for living it up, woo! Slipping into my house I left the lights off since it was pointless if I was going to crash in a little bit. The living room looked comfy so I tried my best to avoid sitting down on the sofa, since once my butt touched the surface I was not going to get up. I kept my eyes from anything comfy and slowly stumbled into my kitchen. I felt around for my island counter, eyes still not adjusting to the dark. Once my foot connected with the hard wood of the counter I let a loud curse leave my lips , before angrily kicking off my shoes. I shook my head taking of my leather jacket and slinging it over one my counter chairs and emptying all the crap that was in my pockets throwing my badge down on the marble top also. I always had to empty my pockets or I would forget and throw them into the washer with my clothes, it was how I went through getting some many badges. In the dark, the soft red flash of the answering machine grabbed my attention, I had one new message, well that's what the screen told me. I clicked the button rolling my eyes at the beep, and then a familiar voice filled the silence in the kitchen. "Hey woman! You better call me back when you get this, I'm not letting you chicken out." My best friend Emily warned sharply. She was the opposite of me. was a question even we could not answer. "You need a man, so get ready tomorrow at eight and we will go clubbing!" Since it was almost four I noted to call her once I woke up already planning ways to get out of our little pick up men scheme. Of course the idea had not originated from me. It was just I'd rather relax at home then go out and wake up with a great hang over. With that thought I headed upstairs to the loft. The house was designed that outside my room I could see over my living room and part of the kitchen. It was nice homey and in a way very artsy. My room was warm, warmer, then our cold weather showing the beginnings of fall. Stripping down to my bra and panties I shivered slightly crawling into bed, almost instantly once my head hit the pillow I blacked out getting pulled down to a very silent very dark sleep.

Chapter 8.1Mature
Beth sat on the window seat so she was opposite Robert. The two of them sat in silence for a while.
"You know, I've spoken more with you than I have with Alex the past two days," Beth murmured.
"Really? I can well imagine that my brother doesn't know we've been talking at all," Robert assumed correctly.
"I'd like it to stay that way for now."
"I wasn't going to say anything anyway; he might have felt the need to escort you everywhere to protect you from the evil vampire menace," Robert said jokingly.
"I wouldn't be surprised if he did that to be honest." The two of them smiled and sat in silence again. "What did you mean last night when you said that you felt betrayed?"
"In 1773?"
"I can't tell you. It's not exactly my secret to share."
"Okay," she said, conceding.
"Beth!" said her mother from the hall. "Who are you talking to?"
"I'm just talking to myself," she replied.
"Oh, okay."
When there were sounds of her mother going back downstairs, Robert asked, "Shall I go?" He moved as if to jump from the window ledge.
"No," Beth said, grabbing his arm. She let go and blushed, drawing her hand back. "Sorry."
"Not a problem. You're very beautiful when you blush." That comment made Beth blush even more.
Robert smiled. The skin of their arms brushed accidentally. Beth felt a shiver pass down her spine.
"Are you cold?" he asked.
"Yeah," she lied.
"I'm going to go now, let you go to bed."
"No you're not," Beth said. Robert raised an eyebrow. "You're going to come inside."
Robert's eyes flashed dangerously dark for a moment, before being replaced by a smile.
"It doesn't work that way," Robert said.
Beth knew it did; it had worked for Alex and Catalin. She decided to play along anyway.
"Then I formally invite you inside my house."
"You have to say it in Latin," he said with a grin.
Beth rolled her eyes and pulled Robert inside by his arm. She knew he could have resisted, but he didn't. She sat him down on her bed.
"I'm just going to get changed so I can at least pretend I'm going to bed," Beth said, pulling some pyjamas out of her drawer.
Beth hurried into her en suite but when she emerged, Robert was gone. The curtains were blowing out of the window and there was a small note on the bed sheet.
Don't tempt me.
Beth picked up the note, running her finger along the writing. It was the most beautiful handwriting Beth had ever seen. It swirled and ran together easily. The capital D was so amazing; it looked more like a work of art than a letter. It was written on a small piece of plain white paper. The note looked as though it had been photocopied straight out of a history book.

How can people call them cruel? It's buisness, they gave her a chance. It's not the buildings owners responsibility to take care of people's personal problems. They rent out a place to live, if you can't pay, they don't earn anything and out you go, it's as simple as that.
Seeing as this weren't the first time she violated the lease,and they actually gave her multiple chances it seems, and that people offered her help, I don't see what else they could've done.
Besides, a big thing to take notice of here is the period between her eviction and the date she froze to death. Its three fucking months.
Her family seems to blame the housing owners? But honestly, I have never heard of a housing company that takes contact with someones mother or family if they can't pay their rent. And the mother says she would've paid the rent for her if she'd known? I kinda have my doubts, seems really weird that they wouldn't have had any contact, or understood that something was wrong over a three month period, especially when both Christmas and new years eve both are in said period. And normally, wouldn't knowing someone close to you were suffering from schizophrenia be a pretty good reason to keep in contact and keep an extra eye on that person, both to help and support them?
Multiple things here seems to be wrong, from the point that the lady weren't deemed eligible under the mental health intervention's program, to the fact that the family doesn't sound to give a shit, to the point that she were out in the cold for three months without anyone noticing, or her actually doing anything about it herself. It seems really stupid to blame her death only on the eviction as hard as many here seems to do.
But again, someone just unwilling and not mentally ill has the right to let themselves be put on the street.
And it is mentioned in the article, that there were privacy laws that prevented them from contacting family, and I would guess that those laws also prevented them from contacting and reporting it to the government?
While I partially can agree with you on the point that a mentally ill person might be the responsibility of the government, there is the fact to consider that she apparently didn't qualify to be part of their program. Which could indicate that no one really were aware of just how mentally ill she actually were, or that she were less mentally ill than what the family seems to think. Either way, I don't see how the housing people is at fault for what happened.
Again, in this case I see no fault with the landlords at all, but generally speaking I don't feel that housing can be seen as just a business, similar to how prisons shouldn't ever be just a business.
Several posters in the beginning of the thread crying foul, when she was evicted for very legitimate reasons, and, above else, in fucking October.
Not reading the article even at THIS scale should be a bannable offense, or else this is insanity.
Housing is just a business and just a service but it should not be. Shelter should be a right. But it should be handled by government, not by forcing landlords to keep shitty tenants.
If I get saddled with an unfair burden, however, then the best case scenario is that real estate investment is no longer a safe or secure financial choice for me. I curse the fools responsible and stop investing. Worst case scenario, it financially ruins me, throwing me into bankruptcy and damning me to poverty for the rest of my life. Either way, I suffer, and the economy in general suffers. Real estate investors dropping out results in a housing shortage and a marked reduction in economic mobility.
As for compensation, how do you define it? How far does it extend? There are a lot of factors to consider, here!
For example: if the property needs significant repairs after the tenant has vacated, would I be reimbursed for those? Would it be a full or partial reimbursement? How would I apply for that compensation? How quickly would I receive the money? Would it be before or after the repairs were completed? If the repairs take a significant amount of time, will I also be reimbursed for the necessary period of vacancy I would suffer during the course of the repairs? What if the full extent of the damage isn't immediately realized, and, a year after the tenant leaves, my inspector finds that something that was initially undetectable has since grown into a very big and expensive problem? Is that reimbursable? What's the statue of limitations, here? One year? Five years? Ten?
What if the property is so badly damaged that the repairs exceed the value? Will the court purchase me a new property?
What if I am renting in a city that has "anti-crime" laws for landlords, which revoke my rental license if that tenant causes a public nuisance or is arrested? Will I be protected from that judgment? If not, will the compensation cover the expense of appealing that process, and the cost of missed rent as a result of having my license terminated? If so, will that compensation extend to the missed rent from all my other properties as well, since the license applies to all properties within city limits?
What if, when I am finally allowed to evict the tenant, we have entered into a seasonal slow market and I have trouble finding a new tenant, which wouldn't have been a problem had I been able to evict the tenant on the usual timeline and/or had a good tenant who stayed until the end of a usual lease? Will I be compensated for my vacancy?
What if that tenant causes such a nuisance that my professional reputation is damaged? The neighborhood turns against me, start posting reviews of my rental business online stating that I'm hurting their property values and causing a public nuisance by renting my properties to unhinged or violent people? Future potential tenants could see those poor reviews, and refuse to come rent with me. What if others within the neighborhood refuse to entertain my investment offers because of that bad reputation, so I can't even keep doing business in the area? How can you even put a price on that?
At the end of day, forcing private real estate businesses to provide housing to bad tenants is not wise at all. You need to provide dedicated resources to help those in need: you can't just co-opt other people's livelihood.
We got a fucking dumb bitch of a tenant once that barged into others' places and stopped paying rent. We evicted her the fuck outta there but we at least had the whole thing set up with the local temp houses so she didn't get as screwed.
But obviously it's a stopgap solution, there should be public housing available and if it isn't it has to be made available ASAP.
My point is simply, that you can't make housing just a business. Of course it is a business. Of course the landlord has to look after his own interest. But you can't have 'profit above everything' with housing. It's the same with healthcare and many other industries. I know the reality in the USA is often exactly that principle. And I know it is a common mindset that 'the market regulates itself'. But, in my opinion, that's bullshit. So while the burden on 'the business' has to be minimized as much as possible, it can never be the highest ranking priority in some fields, including housing.
I'm not trying to argue that the market sorts everything out by itself. Obviously people through the cracks and need some outside help from time to time-- I'm with you 100% on that. I just that I think that forcing their welfare directly onto individual landlords is far from an ideal solution. It places undue burden on indivuals to shoulder the weight of a broader societal issue. As you said, things such as temporary public housing are a much more appropriate answer.
If shes missed a rent payment chances are she probably didn't get new housing because she couldn't afford the down payment for one. It's like a double edge sword.
it's always nice seeing my home city in the headlines... honestly we would need saudi arabia sized camps to house all the homeless in portland. when you drive in from the highway both sides of the roads are filled with shanty camps. trash and shit all over the place. it's disgusting
The lady literally had 3 months to find new housing and didnt
Housing is a business.
Don't pay and you get kicked out. Simple as that. Don't like it, don't miss your rent.
It's sad that this person died, but it is ultimately their own fault. This person did nothing to prevent the situation. They could have made arrangements with the landlords, they could have went to their court date, and done various other things. It also does not help that this person had a history of being a shitty tenant.
For you guys calling for murder/manslaughter charges need to calm down and stop going to the extreme. I can feel for the her and say her death is sad and tragic. But i can also recognize that this is ultimately her own fault.
I mean I understand what you're saying, housing is not something you can simply do without. But it's not the role of businesses to provide charity at their own expense, especially since laws that delay or prevent eviction are frequently exploited by terrible tenants who don't need nor deserve the assistance. When it comes to people who really do need charity, the free market might not be able to sort the situation out on its own, but that just means the government should intervene directly, not point its finger at landlords and say 'this is your problem'.
Very tragic that someone died, but the people calling for the landlord's head, going as far as accusing them of murder...YIKES. Like someone pointed out, a LOT of landlord's aren't rolling in the benjamins, they are average people trying to make more income. Having someone taking up one of their few (possibly ONLY) properties for MONTHS in the winter without receiving any income could lead to them being financially ruined.
It's really no one's fault. The woman was mentally ill, the landlord's had to kick her out, and her mental illness drove her to an accidental death. It isn't anyone's responsibility to contact her family either, she's a grown adult.
So that's not comparable.
But I agree with you, you can't just put the burden on the landlord. But in a system with no public housing available, it is necessary to put part of it on the landlord sometimes. Obviously a fair reimbursement has to be given in those cases.
But as long as there is no system in place to solve these issues, some of the burden is gonna fall on the landlord, because there simply is no other way. And while I don't agree with the sentiment, as long as it is like that I feel anyone opposed to that can suck a dick and eat his own argument like I mentioned above ("Shouldn't have taken on the tenant in the first place then")
It is the same thing. If you get public assistance for food, the grocery store doesn't lose money, they get the money from the government as if the government was footing the bill 100% right there in person. If you get Section 8 housing assistance, the government more or less pays a set rate to landlords who accept Section 8 tenants, in which case the government covers your rent if it is more than around 30% of your income. None of the financial burden is put on the landlord, in the same sense as none of the burden is placed on the grocery store owner.
If we're just talking about having the court pay for her rent until the winter's over then yes, perfect solution if we can fund it, but her problems are certainly not the landlord's.
Unfortunately that's not really how it works here though. The government doesn't really provide you with food, shelter, or water despite those being the things you need to survive.

text: MINNETONKA, Minn., June 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- American Medical Systems® (AMS) (NASDAQ: AMMD), a leading provider of world-class devices and therapies for male and female pelvic health, announced today the commencement of a major global registry of penile prosthetic outcomes. The registry, entitled PROPPER (Prospective Registry of Outcomes with Penile Prosthesis for Erectile Restoration), is led by a team of prominent urologists seeking to better characterize patient satisfaction associated with modern penile prosthetic implants. PROPPER is a large-scale observational registry expected to enroll over 1,000 men diagnosed with erectile dysfunction (ED) for whom an AMS penile prosthesis is recommended by their physician. Initially, over ten sites will be involved in the research. Patient enrollment has started and Gerard D. Henry, MD, of Regional Urology in Shreveport, LA, was one of the first investigators to enroll. "This registry is the first of its kind," he explained. "I am excited about these outcome measures that will add to the scientific literature and ultimately allow patients and healthcare professionals to continue to make informed choices on treatment options." The PROPPER registry seeks to better understand real-world outcomes for men undergoing penile implant surgery to treat erectile dysfunction. Using questionnaires as well as electronic data collection, investigating physicians will prospectively measure patient responses at regular intervals over a one- to five-year period. The physician researchers have identified key metrics for the study including device effectiveness, durability, complications and patient satisfaction; quality of life will also be analyzed, being defined through several validated patient surveys. "American Medical Systems is pleased to be making the PROPPER registry possible. We believe this program will play an important role in both clinical development and physician-patient decision making," said Whitney D. Erickson, Senior Vice President, General Manager Men's Health, American Medical Systems. "PROPPER demonstrates AMS' commitment to assisting patients and healthcare professionals by working closely with urologists to conduct objective and meaningful research." Results from the PROPPER registry will be published by the researchers, with the initial outcomes expected to be made public in 2013.

Report Card: Azarenka builds momentum
Victoria Azarenka won the Luxembourg Open and is the No. 4 seed at the WTA Championships. (Zumapress)
The Report Card hands out grades for the best and worst from the week in tennis.
Victoria Azarenka: B. Azarenka captured her third title of the year and eighth of her career in Luxembourg without much of a bother. The smart money would have been on Vika's shutting down her Luxembourg campaign after she qualified for this week's WTA Championships, but the top seed pressed on and didn't drop a set in five matches.
Winning her first title since April should give her some confidence for Istanbul, where, alongside Linz champion Petra Kvitova, she'll come in with a hot hand. A win in the exclusive eight-player event would be huge for Azarenka, who's been the victim of some hard luck this year with untimely injuries/retirements and unlucky draws. That said, her decision to play Luxembourg will be questioned if she suffers from fatigue in Turkey.
Janko Tipsarevic: B+. Winning begets winning and you can add another Serb to the list to prove it. Tipsarevic, 27, collected his first career title in Malaysia three weeks ago, and now he's got a second title after taking the Kremlin Cup with a 6-4 6-2 victory over defending champion Viktor Troicki. It was the first all-Serbian final on the ATP Tour and the two friends even held a joint press conference after the match, which was a nice touch.
Tipsarevic is now 10th in the Battle for London, trailing Jo-Wilfried Tsonga by 545 points for the eighth and final spot. It will take a monumental effort over the course of the next few weeks to qualify, but the Serb is still planning to play St. Petersburg this week, Basel next week and then Paris-Bercy. Who knows what Tipsarevic thinks he's capable of these days.
Dominika Cibulkova: B+. The pint-sized Slovakian has always been capable of knocking off a top seed. She's beaten Caroline Wozniacki, Maria Sharapova and Vera Zvonareva this year, and it's easy to forget that she is a former Slam semifinalist, at the 2009 French Open. Despite her success, she's never been able to play consistently enough to win a title.
That changed last week, when she upset the top-seeded Zvonareva in the quarterfinals on her way to a hard-fought, 3-6, 7-6 (1), 7-5 win over Kaia Kanepi in the Moscow final. Cibulkova's breakthrough leaves Peng Shuai as the only player in the top 20 to never win a title.
Gael Monfils: B. It's odd to think that as much ink as Monfils receives, his title in Stockholm was only his first of the year. But at least he did it the way he knows best: by being Gael Monfils. The No. 8 Qualifier: D. Heading into last week, all Agnieszka Radwanska had to do was win one match in Moscow to secure the final spot in Istanbul. But she couldn't seal the deal, losing to Lucie Safarova 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 in the first round of the Kremlin Cup. That defeat created an opening for Marion Bartoli, who had to win the title to clinch the berth. Bartoli seemed well on her way until she was forced to withdraw from her quarterfinal match because of a viral illness. It was a deflating way to end what was otherwise a very entertaining battle between the two.

Banqueting Hall
A great hall for a party
The hall was built for the performance of 'Masques' and for grand ambassadorial receptions.
Masques were a sophisticated blend of poetry, propoganda, music, dance and outlandish costume, and the King and Queen sometimes took part. At the end of the performance it became a strange tradition for the audience to upset the table laid out with food and drink.
The room was where William of Orange and his wife Mary Stuart were read the Bill of Rights in February 1689, before jointly accepting the crown.
In 1698 the rest of Whitehall palace burnt down but the Banqueting House survived.
Chapel Royal
The hall was fitted up after the fire as the principal Chapel Royal. The altar was at the north end, and a royal pew was placed opposite at the south end, where the replica throne is today.
Even when the Chapel Royal moved to St James's Palace the place was used for preaching and public ceremonies. In 1808 the room became a military chapel. Rich velvet swags hung between the pillars and pew boxes ran down the long sides of the hall. Up to 2000 soldiers took part in a service.
The Museum
In 1895 Queen Victoria granted the building to the Royal United Services Institution to use as a museum. Showcases full of military curiosities were crammed into the hall while banners hung from the ceiling.
The building is now managed by Historic Royal Palaces as an events venue and a tourist attraction.

James Posey could hear the fans calling his name and was later mobbed by those pleading for his return. Eddie House heard a refrain that became familiar at the Garden in the playoffs as well with a crowd chanting "Eddie! Eddie!" when his exploits lit up the arena.
James Posey could hear the fans calling his name and was later mobbed by those pleading for his return. Eddie House heard a refrain that became familiar at the Garden in the playoffs as well with a crowd chanting "Eddie! Eddie!" when his exploits lit up the arena.
For one night, anyway, Posey and House were back at the site of arguably their greatest triumphs they watched them chronicled at the premiere of the Celtics NBA championship DVD last night at the TD Banknorth Garden Legends Club.
For one night, they were once again Celtics. Whether the pair of notable free agents will ever step into the building bearing that distinction again remained a question as they left amid a wave of speculation and adulation.
"We are still celebrating for the most part," said Posey of his decision to attend the premiere and participate in the promotion of the DVD despite no longer being under contract. "Until things turn out a different way, I am still part of this organization, part of this team."
Posey and House left no question what their first desire is when it comes to wearing a uniform next season. Celtics management, including Celtics executive director of basketball operations Danny Ainge, left little doubt about their desire to have the bench anchors back.
If it were only that easy.
"Right now, my agent (Mark Bartelstein) is in negotiations, talking with Danny, and we're just trying to do something that we all feel right about," House said. "I would love to come back and defend it. I think we could do it again with the same pieces, and maybe a couple of new pieces added here and there. I love playing here, basically, but it has to be something I feel good about."
For the 31-year-old Posey, feeling good about signing deal comes down to a combination of years and money. After settling for essentially a one-year deal with a player option at the end of last summer, Posey was hoping to receive a lucrative four- or five-year deal early in free agency. The Celtics are said to have offered three years at slightly less than the full mid-level exception starting at about $5.5 million per season.
"I would like to," he said of his desire to wrap things up well in advance of the Aug. 28 date he signed on last summer. "Last summer, it was long. But the way it ended, the way it turned out, it turned out pretty good."
After winning his second championship and providing great defensive presence and 3-point shooting off the bench, Posey is clearly disappointed his stock didn't skyrocket in time for his second straight summer on the market. But he knows it has at least increased and is willing to hold out a bit longer for a team to more fully realize that.
"Going into my 10th season," he said. "I've already established myself a little bit as far as how I play the game and what I bring to the table. That speaks for itself.
"This is my No. 1 choice," he added of returning to Boston. "I expressed that to the organization, to everybody, but at the same time I am still waiting."
Kevin Garnett, a somewhat surprise guest at the DVD premiere, took the chance to gently lobby Posey for his return.
"No threats at this point," he said. "I just let him know he is part of this team. He knows that. I let him know that we didn't do this just because of this right here (Garnett and Paul Pierce). A lot of components came into it.
"We talked a couple of times. All of us met up in Vegas a couple of weeks back. It just started a couple of weeks ago. It has been communication throughout the summer."
For the 30-year-old House, who has played in eight cities in eight years, security is one important factor.
"It would be great to settle down somewhere and chill for a little bit with my family," noted House, who has three young children and maintains a home in Arizona, but brings his family with him to the city he is playing in each season. "They could have their friends, be in school and stuff like that, and not have to make new friends every year."
House's role varied greatly in the playoffs, as he went from spending consecutive games entirely on the bench to beloved sparkplug in some of the biggest victories late in the title run.
"I think coming back I would know what the deal is," he determined. "There would be no gray areas like it was at the beginning of the playoffs.
"I think everybody would have a good understanding of what everybody's role is. I think whoever is playing well should be out on the court. (Celtics coach) Doc (Rivers) is good at that. It was just a matter of him shuffling two players (House and Sam Cassell) back and forth and it was hard for either one of us to get in a rhythm."
Celtics managing partner Wyc Grousbeck said he wants both Posey and House back - and told them as much last night - but noted the negotiations would be left up to Ainge.
Ainge said he wants both Posey and House back as well, but added little about any new details in the negotiations with either.
"I've been in contact with a lot of people," he said. "It's pretty much all I've been doing is being in contact with people."

Peru Trout Farmer First to Join iBAP Programme04 March 2015
PERU - Trout producer, Piscifactorías de los Andes, is the first company to apply for the Global Aquaculture Alliance's new iBAP programme.
Piscifactorías de los Andes is a trout farming and processing operation located on Lake Titicaca in the Peruvian Andes, more than 3,300 meters above sea level.

Into the CavernsMature
While Aria had not fully recovered, she insisted on pressing on ahead, despite Scathe's protests of her sitting still so they can properly treat her wounds. Regardless, they made their way through the forest until they stood before the mouth of the Urocubus Caverns.
Zoraan blinked. "Why do they call these the Urocubus Caverns?" He asked.
"Ever hear of a creature called the Urocubus?" Scathe answered the question with a question.
"No. What exactly is it?"
"The stuff of nightmares," Scathe responded. "The Urocubus is a gigantic, eyeless serpent that thrives in the dark and the cold. They grow up to 30 feet in length, though there has been a documented sighting of one of over 70 feet. Their mouths drip with acid and venom, and in the darkness they are the most dangerous monster the land of Avalon has to offer. They're known to many people as 'the Dragonslayer', as many a dragon has fallen to their fangs."
Aria shuddered. Whether from the poison or from the story is anyone's guess. "And we're going through a place NAMED after them? If I'd known what these things were, I would have taken those three days in the stocks and the confiscation of my sword."
"I'd have preferred to avoid this place as well... and there are other things in these caverns besides Urocubi. Granted, none of them are quite as nasty, but they're still nasty: giant spiders, animated skeletons, blightwolves, werewolves (though those are quite rare), and the occasional bear. Though they are all merely food for the Urocubi."
"Gee, thanks for the comforting speech." Zoraan answered.
"Well," Aria finally said, "it's either go in there and face uncertain death... or stay here, get caught by Cypher, and face certain death. If it's all the same to you guys, I think we have better odds in the caves."
Zoraan was about to protest, but then just shrugged and responded. "Yeah, you're right."
"Let's go." Scathe responded. And with that, the three of them went into the cavern.
About an hour later, Cypher and band of royal scouts tracked the heroes to the entrance to the Urocubus Caverns.The scouts looked at the ground and nodded to Baron Cypher. "They went in there, sir."
Cypher smiled. "Blow the entrance. We'll make sure they can't come back this way."
The scouts saluted. "Yes, sir!"
The explosion shook the foundation of the cave, and all three of the heroes felt it and heard it. Zoraan sighed, exasperated. "Great, now we can't go back the way we came."
Aria shook her head. "Why in hell would we come back here after we get through the other side?"
"...good point." Zoraan responded. Though, in the back of his mind, he was cursing at himself.
"So, now we have but one choice." Scathe's voice cut into the darkness just as much as the light spell he cast, illuminating the caverns. "We must go forward."

All the hits Philadelphia quarterback Michael Vick has taken behind a terrible offensive line finally caught up to him as he was knocked out of the game against Dallas with a concussion. Fox sideline reporter Pam Oliver said Vick's helmet came up on a hit he took from linebacker Ernie Sims and his helmet hit him in the eye, and that caused Vick to lose some vision. He was diagnosed with a concussion after he left to the locker room. Rookie Nick Foles came on in relief and finished the game.
This is a move that has been bandied about for most of the Eagles' disappointing season. Vick has struggled with turnovers, particularly fumbles, and Andy Reid has had to answer questions for the past few weeks on whether Vick remains the starter. Every week the answer was the same, and Vick stayed in the lineup. Foles, who played pretty well in the preseason, had yet to attempt an NFL pass before Sunday.
[Also: Robert Kraft thought Bill Belichick was a 'schmuck' after Spygate]
Vick took some shots early in the game against the Cowboys -- as he has most of the season -- and walked off to the locker room in the second quarter. Foles misfired on his first pass, but his second pass found tight end Clay Harbor for a 7-yard completion, the first of Foles' career. Foles completed 22 of 32 passes for 219 yards, had a touchdown and an interception returned for a touchdown in the 38-23 loss.
Reid said after the game that Vick is still the starting quarterback if he's healthy, according to @EaglesInsider on Twitter. But depending on how long Vick is out, the Eagles may have no choice but to give Foles a chance and get a decent look at their future.

Tarrabool Lake – Eva Downs Swamp System
The Tarrabool Lake – Eva Downs Swamp System is an ephemeral wetland complex lying on the west of the Barkly Tableland region in the Northern Territory of Australia. It is listed on Australia's Register of the National Estate and on the DIWA wetland directory.
The system comprises Tarrabool Lake and a swamp to its north-west on the Eva Downs pastoral lease. In wetter years, the two water bodies merge to form a single freshwater wetland of up to 2,750 square kilometres (1,060 sq mi). Tarrabool Lake and Eva Downs Swamp are usually inundated seasonally and may retain water for a year or more after major flood events.[1]
Tarrabool Lake is dominated by low, open coolibah woodland, with lignum shrubland, patches of open northern bluebush shrubland, and with extensive areas devoid of trees. The centre of Eva Downs Swamp is dominated by open belalie woodland in association with lignum shrubland, and is surrounded by northern bluebush shrubland, with tall tussock grassland to the south-east, and coolibah woodland in the south. Drying or marshy areas of the system have prolific swathes of groundcover plants such as Schoenoplectus dissachanthus. Nardoo is common.
The core of the wetland system has been identified as an 1,186-square-kilometre (458 sq mi) Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports over 200,000 waterbirds when extensively flooded. It has periodically supported over 1% of the world populations of Australian pelicans and straw-necked ibises,[2] their breeding colonies being among the largest recorded in the Australian tropics. Other birds which have bred in the IBA in relatively large numbers include freckled ducks, great and intermediate egrets, glossy ibises, gull-billed terns, magpie geese, plumed whistling-ducks, grey teals and hardheads. Nationally vulnerable Australian painted snipes bred at Tarrabool in 1993.

Winter Fest warms up
When you think winter sports spots in Milwaukee, you don't usually conjure visions of a Velcro Wall, a zip line and a "Berry Go Round."
But they're just part of the fun indoor destinations at Winter Fest, which runs from Wednesday through Dec. 31at the downtown Delta Center at N. 4th St. and W. Wisconsin Ave.
Winter Fest's schedule is packed with more than 50 attractions for family members from tots to adults. This year's Winter Fest has new "zones" designed to match age groups and their interests.
The Journal Sentinel South Pole Adventure Zone is created for children ages 6 through 12, with one of the largest indoor zip lines in the state. There's also a Velcro Wall (where you get to tell your friends to "stick around") and a Tilt-A-Whirl.
Igloo Island for kids 5 and younger offers a Crayola Castle, while Peppermint Lane has ornament making, magic tricks and more.
Want a North Pole Adventure? There's a zone for that, too, with classic all-ages carnival rides that include the Berry Go Round.
Adults may want to settle into the Polar Café with its free Wi-Fi; gourmet hot chocolate, burgers, wine and beer will be on sale here. But kids can heat things up at the Metroparent Operation MOVE Zone dedicated to physical activity. Youngsters can get moving on a holiday obstacle course, check their throwing speed on a radar snowball pitch and learn new plays from the Milwaukee Wave.
Everyone can take a seat at the Majestic Mountain Theatre Stage, with entertainment provided by First Stage Milwaukee, as well as screenings of holiday films from "Polar Express" to "Happy Feet."
Get advance discount tickets online at MilwaukeeWinterFest.com through Tuesday: $12 for children, $8 for adults. Tickets at the door after Dec. 25 are $15 for children, $10 for adults.
