Home Sweet HomeMature
Vincent pulled the ship over the designated gate on the fighter docking ring and latched to the docking moors. The ship descended into the bay on the landing platform and stopped on the fifth deck of the ring.
Vincent and Marcus felt the front gear moor tug the ship on its track, pulling it into the pod that they were registered to. A medical team emerged from the doorway of the bay and made their way to the back of the ship where the automated system opened the fighters hatch. The team of three medics quickly made their way into the ship. The first medic swiftly squeezed past Vincent and slid down the ramp, evading the monitors and keyboards as she made her way toward Marcus.
Marcus was unbuckling when the medic appeared to his left. "Jesus christ... you scared the shit out of me." he said, his voice barely audible through the helmet.
The medic quickly groped near Marcus's neck, detaching the helmet and removing it from his head. "You're required to cooperate..."she said quickly, in a soft yet stern voice as she pulled down an eyelid with her thumb. "... both of you were under a lot of gravitational force and we have to ascertain that there is no internal damage."
"Well that's dandy." replied Marcus, smiling at her gently as she pulled down the other eyelid and flashed a light into his eye.
"Did you lose time after or before the g-LOC?"
"I think so, I don't remember much before or after the explosion, I remember chasing the mine, and shooting a few times, but then it gets a little blurry until we're back in the firefight with everyone else. Log stated I destroyed the target but I can't remember that happening."
"Does your head hurt?" She asked."
"Yeah, feels like I got hit by a Maglev."
"You have subconjunctival hemorrhaging due to the trauma during g-LOC, we're going to have to scan you for brain damage."
"So what exactly does that first part mean?"
"Well." she said, putting the flashlight away and fishing into a bag at her knees. "It means you have hemorrhaging in your eyes, they're going to be really bloodshot for about a week. That's not a big deal though" She said as she now ran a scanner across his forehead, staring at a monitor it was connected to. "The big problem is here..." she explained, pointing at the screen with her thumb. "You've got a pretty bad concussion, and there's a dark spot here that I'm not too sure of, I think we'll have to bring you to the lab immediately."
"That might be my plate." Marcus said as he unbuckled another strap around his legs and pushed the monitors and keyboards toward the walls of the cockpit. "When I was in the corps I had a one on one interview with a frag grenade. I took most of the shrapnel in my shoulders but a big chunk went right through my helmet and got lodged in my skull. I have a plate keeping it together now, so that's probably the dark spot you're seeing, but I'll go with you anyway."
"Alright, we're required to put you in a stretcher to minimize any unknown internal damage."
"I'm not sure I like that" he said, laughing a bit as he attempted to stand up in the cramped cockpit. "On second thought..." he said, as he sat back down, visibly pained. "... I think I'll take up that offer."
Vincent and Marcus were both put on stretchers and brought out of the fighter, tied down and wearing neck braces. They were wheeled to one of the central lifts that brought them to the mainframe concourse. Once their they were pulled into the first floor of the nearby medical center and were quickly admitted after the medical team swiped their identification tags into the system. They were separated at this point, Vincent went to one elevator that brought him to the twentieth floor of the medical tower whilst Marcus entered a different elevator. Where he went from there was something Vincent did not know, all he could see was the staff hunched over him and the steady passing of ceiling lights and door frames. He didn't have much time to ponder over this however, the medical staff quickly stripped him of his flight suit and hefted him onto a table where he was sedated and scanned thoroughly for any internal damage. He heard the muffled speaking of the medical team as his head began to feel lighter and colder. His eyes became heavy and he was forced to close them. His muscles were relaxed to the point where his head went limp in the neckbrace, unresponsive to his efforts at moving. He heard an automated door hiss open followed by a strangely familiar voice.
"So, I hear he performed well, is he under yet?"
"Yes Doctor Strauss, he should be, if not he will be in a very short time."
"Good, let's find out if he's been ticking the way they want him to. If not, let's see if we can find a way to make him tick the way they want him to."

Touring the Dungeon (Part 2)Mature
Pleasant is a relative thing, Sarah thought as James closed the door behind them and began to light torches about the room. It was more pleasant only because it lacked the bodies and the smell of the hall behind them.
"This is my work space."
Wholawski smiled at Sarah as his arm swept in a grand gesture about the room. The torch light gleamed off shiny implements of torture. Some Sarah recognized, like the rack, and others she couldn't fathome a use for, like the giant hose clamp.
"It's clean," Sarah said at last, realizing Wholawski was waiting for a response.
"Of course it is clean," he chuckled. "Dirty equipment makes the prisoners fall ill and they do not last nearly as long. I learned that early in my career."
"Career?" Sarah had not expected him to use such a modern word.
"Oh yes, how else do you think a bastard of Vervell and Azure could rise to such power?"
"Not through your charms, for sure," Sarah snorted.
"Ah," he smiled, "when Verzure is untied once more and I sit upon the throne in Verdas, you shall see the charm that I possess."
"Right," Sarah drawled softly to herself.
"Come let me show you some of my favorites."
Wholawski wrapped an arm about her shoulder and steered her to where many implements lay upon the table.
"Normally," he explained, "minor infractions can be dealt with by whipping or using the stock and pillory in the courtyard. But for repeat offenders I like to start off with the thumbscrew. If that doesn't work they get the pilliwinks." he tapped the hand sized version of the thumbscrew. "And if they still insist on being a nuisance they get the bone crusher."
The bone crusher looked big enough to hold a leg. Wide eyed, Sarah plastered on a smile and thanked the Gods that was no dried blood on them. Wholawski guided her over to an iron cage that looked vaguely human shaped, where it leaned against a barrel that was at least six feet tall.
"Now," he smiled, "when it comes to gathering information, I like the coffin." Wholawski patted the metal frame. "It is a good way to keep a person immobile. I have two that hang into the moat, and one into the lake behind. This one I like to use with the barrels."
"The barrels?" Sarah asked without thinking, unsure how a barrel was used for torture.
"Oh yes. I can fill them with frigid water from the lake," he gestured to spigots that protruded from the back wall, "or rats."
"Rats?" Sarah muffled her voice with a hand realizing she was letting him get to her.
"Oh yes," his eyes gleamed, "my rats."
Leading her across the room, he stopped in front of a table with a cloth over it. Wholawski whipped off the cover to reveal cages of rats. The moment light hit their eyes they began hissing and scrabbling to get free.
"They are fed flesh most every night," he grinned, "and they've learned to prefer it."
Sarah shuddered as his hand passed over the cages, causing a flurry of activity upward. The General flicked the cover back over them and soon they were quiet again.
"I leave that sort of torture to those I have no more use for. Pity I never did get to use it on Phoenix."
"What did you use on Phoenix?" The words were out before she could sensor herself. Sarah couldn't bear to look at the man. Jason never spoke of his time here, not that she blamed him. Swallowing she hardened herself to hear what Wholawski had to say.
"Of course he was only Scout Sergeant de Borguez then, but he was stubborn." The General moved to the center of the room. "The rack was employed first upon his second and then upon him. The pair of them made interesting subjects you know. Neither stretching," Whoalwski patted the rack, "nor compressing them," he patted the giant hose clamp, "gave me any information. They literally glared at each other the whole time. Quite amusing, actually."
Sarah desperately hoped her emotions weren't showing when he swung around to study her.
"He sat upon the spiked throne for a while, a thousand pricks upon his body, yet not a word. His second was a bit more vocal on that one, mostly groaning."
The throne, with its tiny nails, sat upon a metal basin. Leather straps dangled from the the chair that Sarah presumed were used to strap a person in so the nails would bite into their body from head to toe. Swallowing and reapplying her smile she watched as the General considered a few other objects.
"Yes, I did put them both in barrels of water. Not in the coffin though. They had to swim to keep their heads above water, as drops dripped upon them all throughout the day. I was hoping one of them would perish." He sighed. "I was very annoyed with them by then, but before I could try the rats, they vanished; down the drain."
Wholawski's eyes bored into the door they had entered through, a scowl upon his face.
"When I found the man who had helped him and his men, I had him drawn and quartered outside the fortress and left him there as a warning."
Sarah's plastered smile faded. Her mind ran a mile a minute as she realized how deranged and sadistic the man was. All this stuff was real. It wasn't a movie set, or a museum display. Everything here was used to inflict pain upon people and what was worse, he enjoyed doing so.
He deserves to die, Sarah thought as color drained from her face. I thought the five men who raped me were bad. They're nothing compared to Wholawski. Nothing...

Looking for a point of differentiation in an increasingly cluttered category, Dr Pepper Snapple Group, inc. is ramping up promotional activity in the first quarter of '10 for at least two of its brands.
For Sunkist, DPS will leverage partnerships with the Big 10 Conference, Big East Conference, Pac-10 and other college sports conferences with a national promotion featuring college athletic personality Dick Vitale.
For 7-Up, DPS plans to build on the brand's seven-month-old Sevenisima Hispanic marketing campaign with a sponsorship of a major Latin music property. The Sevenisima campaign was designed to play up 7-Up's healthier refreshment positioning by celebrating "flavorful moments experienced through a natural, real lifestyle." The campaign featured a sweeps this past summer that dangled family vacations, shopping sprees and other prizes.

Although Audi was not the primary sponsor of either Art Basel Miami Beach or its sister event, Design Miami—roles that belong to UBS and HSBC Private Wealth respectively—it was the most ubiquitous.
Eschewing auto shows in favor of the Miami events for the unveiling of its 2010 A8, Audi of America spent north of $6 million but south of $10 million building out its presence.
The automaker, which has increased its marketing budget by 20 percent this year to seize share from its more distressed competitors in the luxury car segment, did not merely sponsor the Miami happenings. Instead, Audi took on the roles of cultural creator and arts curator. For example, in addition to providing the vehicles for the shuttle service for VIPs attending the events, Audi: more

Can I really tell CVBs to spend less on advertising? Am I brave enough to court the wrath of media entities and the hospitality and travel industries? OK, no.

Tough economic times have threatened to make the workplace holiday party a thing of the past at some businesses. As this article from TheStreet.com points out, some companies are replacing this annual tradition with a donation or a call for community service.
While charitable giving and community service are to be commended, I can't help but think of Seinfeld's George Costanza's take on donations in lieu of traditional gifts. Efforts to inspire or motivate employees should be more than an effort to whitewash cost-cutting. If the economy were to regain its strength tomorrow, would the holiday party be back on the schedule? more

In step with IEG's projection that North American companies will increase their spending on marathons and running events by 2.5 percent in 2009 (to an estimated $86.1 million), I had the pleasure of participating in an inaugural half marathon event on November 22nd.
The first-time event—the Women's Running magazine Women's Half Marathon to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society—was held in St. Petersburg, Florida. While I was first and foremost there as a charity runner, I had plenty of time on and off the course to check out the sponsorship activity. While my running resume is by no means prolific (especially compared to IEG's resident ultramarathoner Shan Riggs), I have participated in enough races of varying distances, sizes and sponsor profiles to know the drill. more

Then another angel came out of then tree's....No, not an angel....A vampire???? With wings??? God, this forest just got more and more confusing!
I smiled at her, she waved back. She put out hr hand for the sand elf to shake. He did.
"Ya know, your kinda cute...For a sand elf!"She smiled, I laughed. The elf, who's name was too laong and complicated for me to remember, smiled and looked down. Then she said politly, "I'm Tris, the pureblood princess."Pureblood? Ebony had never told us about them!Who were they? WHAT are they? Oh boy, Ebony is going to have a loooot of questions to answer when he gets back!!! I gave her a quizzical smile and tugged Kerri's hands, she looked at me with confused, yellow eyes.

Decadence after dark
What to wear to where
Party season has officially begun from office shindigs, to family festive gatherings or even drinks down your local. It's all about upping your sartorial game and stepping out in style. If you don't know what to wear to where, we've got something for all occasions.
Jacket £28, Shirt £5, Belt £6, Trousers £12
The fact is party season usually revives items long lost, forgotten or rarely seen in the average wardrobe. Bow ties, cummerbunds, wide lapelled velvet tuxedo jackets and dinner suits have been phased out or more specifically reserved for special occasions. For most these items conjure lavish images from a bygone era. Think a stroll to the opera in decadent evening attire with a large top hat and cane. Yet you can dazzle your colleagues by cutting a dashing figure in a velvet tuxedo jacket. Dressed up or down with tailored smart trousers and a shirt, or with dark wash slim fitting jeans and a crisp white t-shirt.
Shirt £8
Jacket £40, T-shirt £2.50, Jeans £12, Shoes £14
For the smart casual code of dress, opt for a fine gauge knitted roll neck, a navy pea coat and indigo jeans with a slight turn up. Alternatively a casual shirt with a Harrington jacket and jeans looks great. Both are casually refined looks that nod to past style tribes, think modern British mod & contemporary beatnik.
Jacket £17, Shirt £8, Jeans £18
Jacket £35, Roll neck £18
Jacket £35, Roll neck £18, Jeans £12
Sometimes simplicity is key especially when pulling together a polished look. So why not buy into something you can wear throughout the season, an investment piece. If you're thinking of suiting we have the perfect one on hand. Updated in skinny fits that comes in a range of accents from burgundy, luscious blue and a dark green checked ensemble. We offer several ways to look slick, stylish and above all be comfortable.
Jacket £28, Shirt £10, Trousers £12

Jacket £30,Shirt £8,Trousers £15

Exchanging NumbersMature
Chapter Five: Exchanging Numbers
I followed Amy out of class and studied her back as we walked, I hadn't expected her to be accepting. Most people avoided me or outright made fun of me. We grabbed a bench in the shade and I drummed my fingers nervously on the table. I hadn't eaten lunch with a friend since I was in primary school.
"So where do you live?" Amy asked, seeming completely at ease.
"Outskirts of the city. We used to live in the city center but mum wanted to live near a park," I replied with a shrug.
"That was lucky, those houses get taken pretty quickly," she said.
"My dad doesn't do anything but work," I said as way of explanation. She nodded and ate some more of her food. I had a bad feeling about where her thoughts where headed – why on earth is a kid with well-off parents depressed? I'd had a fair amount of people poke me with the question, usually in a very angry manner. I played with my own greasy looking canteen food and wondered what I was meant to do now. I'd met, I'd kind of gotten to know her. Were we friends yet? I didn't really know how the whole process worked. And what about what Darius said? I had to protect her, but she looked pretty capable of defending herself. Though her style could just be an attempt to look tough.
Was I allowed to tell her everything? Darius had never said anything about it. Then again he also hadn't explained why she was special.
"You're thinking about something serious," Amy stated, startling me a little. Had it been that obvious on my face?
"Yeah, there's someone I know who's being really vague," I said. She raised an eyebrow and I realised she'd misunderstood.
"Not you, someone else I know. He asked me to do something, but he hasn't even explained why and..." I trailed off, not really sure how to finish the sentence.
"That does sound unhelpful. For all you know, you're doing something not-so-good," she said with a small laugh. I hadn't considered that, I realised. But Darius was an angel, so he had to be a good guy, right? Okay, her pupils are weird, and since angels exist, I guess demons could. But there's no way in hell she's evil.
"Wow, what did he ask you do? Break into a bank?" Amy asked, humour still lacing her tone. If I just told her, this would easier. Though how do I do that without sounding crazy?
"Why'd you move here?" I asked, deciding to switch subjects. She choose to let it pass without comment thankfully.
"Just needed to get away..." she said, though I could tell she was holding back something.
"I understand that, but whole new city seems excessive. I just run away to our old house," I said.
"You still have your old house?" she asked. Great, now I definitely sounded like a rich, spoilt brat.
"That's awesome, mind if I use it when I need to escape my overbearing room mate?" she asked. I starred at her in confusion. It seemed everytime I tried to guess her reaction I got it completely wrong. Was I that socially inept?
"Er, sure. Though I'll need to lend you keys. Let me give you my number," I said, scrawling it on a piece of notepad.
"I'll text you so you know my number," she said taking it happily. It'd be nice to get a text from someone other than my parents I thought as she jumped a little in her chair. Was she that desperate to get away from her room mate.
"What's your room mate like?" I asked.
"Pretty eccentric, he studied up on lots of different cultures and prays to gods, stuff like that," she said, laughing as she went.
"Well, least he's interesting?" I pointed out, making her laugh more.
"I guess. He also looks out for me which is nice," she added. I needed to meet her room mate. Maybe she couldn't know stuff, but someone who believed in gods might just believe in angels. And if he's already protective he should be happy to help me out.
"You get in a lot of trouble or something?" I meant it as a joke, but I saw her face fall a little at the words. Maybe the protection Darius wanted was overdue.
"If someone troubling you, you can always hide out at my actual home," I said. She watched me for a few minutes before giving a single nod.
"I'm fine, but thanks for the offer," she said. Darius was so going to explain everything to me when I got home.
"How do you get home?" Amy asked.
"By taking one of three buses, whichever turns up first," I replied.
"Can you catch those from any stop?" she asked.
"Probably," I shrugged," why?".
"I'm still learning the city a little and I got a lift into school," she said.
"Ah," I said, getting the hint. The end of lunch bell rang and we headed to our next class, English.
"I'll text you my address," she said when we reached the door and she saw we couldn't sit next to each other. Though one of us had to sit next to Martin. I wasn't about to let her do it so I sat down, mentally preparing myself for the side comments.

Chapter One
Supposedly, dreams reflect our hidden fears and secret desires, all clamoring for attention. The one I d had last night had been so vivid that even now, as evening drew near, it still made me squirm in my chair. I sat against a wall in the counsel room where the elders and the Dark Guardians protectors of our society were discussing how best to ensure our survival. Because I hadn t yet experienced my first transformation, I was considered a novice and was not allowed to sit at the large, round table with the others. This was okay by me, because it gave me the freedom to let my mind wander without anyone noticing that I wasn't paying attention.
In my dream, I'd been standing in a clearing with my declared mate, Connor, our arms wrapped around each other so tightly that we could barely breathe. The full moon served as a spotlight.
Then dark clouds drifted over the moon, and everything went black. Still holding him near, I was acutely aware of the muscles and bones in his body undulating against me. He grew taller and broader. My fingers were in his hair, and I felt the strands thicken and lengthen. His mouth covered mine, but his lips were fuller than before. The kiss was hungrier than any he'd ever given me. It heated me from head to toe, and I thought I knew what it was to be a candle, melting from the scorching flame. I knew I should move away, but I clung to him as though I'd drown in a sea of doubts if I let go.
The hovering clouds floated away, and the moonlight illuminated us once again only I was no longer in Connor's arms. Instead I was pressing my body against Rafe's, kissing him, yearning for his touch. . . .
I shifted uncomfortably in my chair with the memory of how desperately I'd wanted Rafe. It was Connor I was supposed to long for. But I'd woken up in a tangle of sheets, clamoring for another of Rafe's touches even if it were only in a dream.
Squirming again, I felt a sharp elbow in my ribs.
"e;Be still, will you?"e; Brittany Reed whispered harshly beside me. Like me, she would soon be turning seventeen and would experience her first transformation with the next full moon.
I'd known Brittany since kindergarten. We were friends, but I'd never felt as close to her as I did to Kayla whom I'd met only last summer, when her adoptive parents had brought her to the park to face her past. We'd connected on a deep level almost as soon as we met. We'd spent the past year sharing our lives through emails, text messages, and phone calls.
During the last full moon she'd discovered that she was one of us and that Lucas Wilde was her destined mate. I can't imagine how frightening it would be to have so little time to prepare. We Shifters can't control the first transformation. When the full moon rises, our bodies react to its call. But now Kayla sat at the table with the others.
The summer solstice, the longest day of the year, is usually a time when as many of our kind as possible come together to celebrate our existence. But this year a pall hung over us as we gathered at Wolford, a village hidden deep within a huge national forest near the Canadian border. All that remained there of what had once been a vibrant community were a few small buildings and the massive, mansionlike structure that serves as the home of the elders who rule over us. The residence also houses most of us when we're here for the solstice celebration.
We've always been a secret society. Even though we have lived among the rest of the world, we show our true selves only to each other. But recently, we discovered that Lucas's older brother had betrayed us by telling someone in the outside world about our existence. Now some scientists who work for a medical research company called Bio-Chrome were determined to capture us and discover what makes us tick or more important, what makes us transform. They wanted to patent this ability, develop it, and use it for their own financial gain. But being dissected and studied wasn't h

westernaustralia2011.com back at Midway Island
by Event media on 22 Mar 2008
westernaustralia2011.comjury rig sail plan - Clipper 07-08 Clipper Ventures PLC © .
westernaustralia2011.com has arrived back at Midway Island where the crew will make repairs to their gearbox, damaged when a line fouled the 68-foot yacht's propeller as they made their way to join the rest of the ten-strong
Clipper fleet in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Skipper Martin Silk says 'Fair winds and a new suit of sails [a picture of the jury rig sail plan can be viewed online at www.clipper-ventures.com] facilitated a safe passage back to Midway Refuge today, and the BBB sailed to the dock with two boats standing by. The afternoon was spent clearing a fouled line from the propeller and it looks hopeful that parts will arrive by plane on Friday night. The team are settled into familiar surroundings, looking forward to a night of ten pin bowling against the 'Islanders'! Once again the hospitality of John and John plus their own teams has been first
class and we will try to make the most of our time here.'
It has been a complicated logistical process to get the necessary replacement part to Midway Island for Martin and his team to effect their repairs. However the Race Team continues to work around the clock, both in Hawaii and the UK, in order to enable westernaustralia2011.com to start racing again as soon as possible.
Martin says, 'It is an incredible set up in Midway, we have great human resources and the crew has been well supported by the people living on the island.'
It is hoped the required gearbox plate will arrive by air this afternoon (Friday) and, that being the case, he says he and his crew intend to depart Midway on Saturday. Three 'leggers' – crew competing on a single leg of the Clipper 07-08 Round the World Yacht Race – will fly to Hawaii when the plane returns to Honolulu on Saturday evening so they can join one of the other yachts to complete Leg 5 to Santa Cruz. It will take them approximately eight days to make the journey to Honolulu on the island of O'ahu – appropriately, the Hawaiian word for 'gathering place'.
Meanwhile, in the Ala Wai, the crews of the nine yachts already here are relaxing after the arduous 4,400-mile Pacific crossing from Qingdao, China and getting to know new friends at the Waikiki Yacht Club, Hawaii Yacht Club and the Magic Island Petroleum Fuel Dock which have welcomed the crews most warmly. A packed programme of social events is planned for this weekend including the prize giving on Saturday evening when Hull & Humber, New York and Glasgow: Scotland with style Clipper will be awarded their pennants.
Already in the diary are live bands, a cook out, Jamaica's Rum Party and, later in the week, a luau – an evening of Polynesian banqueting, music and entertainment that recreates the ceremony and pageantry of the Hawaiian royal court – while some of Liverpool 08's crew will head out to sea again. Skipper Ben Galloway can relax though; someone else will be at the helm while he and his crew take part in some deep sea fishing.
On Wednesday Clipper Ventures announced a delay of eight to ten days to the start of Race 8 to Santa Cruz.
Glasgow: Scotland with style Clipper skipper, Hannah Jenner says, 'The crew took the news of the delay pretty well and understand the need to do things properly for safety's sake. Actually we're really happy to get some time to rest and relax. I had really bad flu when we left Qingdao so it's great to be able to catch up on sleep and get some free time and some sunshine again.'
Marcus Cholerton-Brown on Qingdao says, 'It gives us a good chance to really go through the 'to do' list. We were so busy in Qingdao with the programme we didn't have a chance to do some of the smaller jobs, so we're giving the
boat a really good going over here and it's great to get a chance to relax a bit as well.'
Rig checks on the rest of the fleet have been completed and work has also begun on Durban 2010 and Beyond to prepare the boat for the arrival of their new mast. Durbanite skipper Ricky Chalmers, whose wife Maggie flew in to
Honolulu this week – a surprise she had arranged before news of the dismasting – says, 'I can think of a lot worse places to be stuck for a few days!'

Culture Club
Brian Corrigan and Samuel Schimek, the guys behind the all-Colorado pop-up store YesPleaseMore in the Denver Pavilions, and their city sponsor, Create Denver, are all about starting a dialogue between local cultural groups. But they wanted to find the right way to do it.
I went around beating down their doors, Corrigan says. Theres not a lot of funding for creative endeavors, and we were sick of asking people to do things for free. So we decided, Why dont we have some fundraisers so we can do things? The result is tonights Test Market fundraiser for Create Denver, which takes YesPleaseMores basic pop-up model a step further: Instead of selling merchandise, this party will be selling arts and culture.
Everyone is programming a piece of the space. Its like a box of chocolates, Corrigan explains. Were inviting people to come and sample some of Denvers best emerging cultural leaders and established leaders. And he credits those leaders for jumping into the concept so enthusiastically. Its an exciting thing, he continues. How many cities do you know of where all kinds of institutions will come together to raise money for someone other than themselves? And the best part about this is how were wrapping the party in data that shows how culturally significant Denver is.
Test Market, which includes flash performances, live music, a crafting bar, giveaways and much more, runs from 8 p.m. to midnight, tonight in the old Wolfgang Puck space on the second floor of the Denver Pavilions, 500 16th Street. Admission is $15; buy tickets at www.denvermagazine.com/yespleasemore. For more information, go to http://yespleasemore.com.

It's Not Your Fault Honey, Really
Can you define "best friend"? The relationship below between Alexandra and Rae Ann defines best friend.
Alexandra (Xandra, Alex) -16, smart, capable, thoughtful, thinks things through,
Victoria (Tori) -10,wild, loud, center of attention, loyal, like her mom
Rae Ann (Rae, Annie)-16, Alexandra's best friend, devoted Christian,
Ryan-16, Alexandra's boyfriend, loving, a bit overbearing, jock
"It's not your fault honey, really it isn't." This is what my mom kept saying over and over as we drove our tightly packed car away from his house. She was crying, but I could tell she was trying to hide that fact from Victoria and I. The black tear streaks gave it away, but I decided not to point that out. Inside I hoped Paige didn't see because if she saw Mom crying surely she would start bawling. I did not need that.
"Where are we going Mommy?" Victoria questioned. Sometimes I wish she would just keep her mouth shut! Gosh, what is it with little sisters and the constant talking?
I could tell Mom was trying to compose herself a bit before she answered her. "We're going to Grammy and Papa's house for a few days."
Probably Ryan, I guessed as I grabbed my phone to see who had texted me. Look, I like having a boyfriend as great as Ryan, don't get me wrong, but sometimes a girl needs her space. You know what I mean ladies. Sometimes its just better to chill out with your best friend eating mini candy bars all night, than going to the movies with your boyfriend.
It wasn't Ryan, and I'm not sure if that made me happy or disappointed. But it turned out to be Rae Ann, and it was always good to talk to her. I find that whenever you don't want to talk to anyone, you should talk to your best friend. She never gets mad at you for snapping at her and always says the perfect thing.
hi girly, Is all she had texted, but it was enough to brighten my spirits just a bit.
Rae Ann was always the girl every guy wanted to be with, and the girl every girl wanted to be. She was tall, sporty, had long blonde hair and the hottest body. She was also single. She was a devoted Christian, and what some girls called "picky" or "snobby", she called having high standards. She didn't tolerate drinking, smoking, cussing, perverseness, not attending church every Sunday, and a few other things.
The best part about Rae was that she is my best friend. We have been best friends since we were three, and I love her to death.
"Change of plans girls. We're going to head over to Lori's house for a while," Mom told us.
"Yay!" Victoria squealed. Oh yea, Rae's little sister Marie is also Victoria's best friend, and Rae's mom is also my mom's best friend. It works out pretty well actually.
I happily texted Rae Ann back and told her I'd see her soon and that I had much to tell!

Cable nets offer Super Bowl halftime alternatives
By Steven Zeitchik
NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - For fans unmoved by the prospect of a Tom Petty Super Bowl halftime show, the cable industry has an answer. Many answers, in fact.
There's grown men stuffing themselves with eggs and ham. There's Deion Sanders skirmishing with his wife over household chores. There's kittens squaring off on a football field.
After five years of letting the Super Bowl halftime show air pretty much uncontested, networks are again taking aim at the extravaganza. Sensing vulnerability in the NFL's decision to cast the rock musician known for "Free Fallin"' and "American Girl" as its headline entertainment, nets are in a counter programming frenzy.
"We see an opportunity at halftime because young viewers may not be into watching a musical performance suited to older guys," Spike TV representative David Schwarz said. "To get the competitive juices flowing, we have a better idea."
Spike's idea is to show an eating contest featuring the likes of Eater X, Tim "Gravy" Brown" and rising star (in the eating world, anyway) Joey Chesnut. Spike will telecast an undercard of hard-boiled-egg consumption (world record: 65) as well as a ham-eating main event. The network will cut to the competition as soon as the first-half Super Bowl whistle blows on Fox.
Oxygen will premiere the first episode of reality series "Deion & Pilar: Prime Time Love," in which viewers peek into the home life of flamboyant former athlete Deion Sanders more than two months ahead of the series' debut.
Like Spike, Oxygen will cut in to its regularly scheduled programming at the start of halftime and air the 22-minute show commercial free, in time for viewers to get back to the second half. "We have one of the biggest stars the NFL has ever turned out on our airwaves," Oxygen general manager Jason Klarman said. "A lot of people will be interested in both the game and in Deion."

According to Associated Press, McDonald's inaugurated its first Hamburger University in China this week, not to train a new Chinese generation to flip burgers, but as business managers to attract and retain ambitious young talent.
This move is easy to understand even though the idea of Chinese people eating McDonald's is not.
The human resources dimension of innovation is often a forgotten question in the panoply of innovation issues. As China has grown the issue of a trained middle management has become a pressing problem for foreign as well as indigenous companies. China is McDonald's Inc.'s fastest-growing global market. Its 'eating out' market, roughly estimated to be worth $300billion -a-year, is growing at 10 per cent a year which is huge compared to the USA where it is only expanding at 2 to 3 percent per annum.
But the problem they face is holding on to staff who are young, ambitious and are lured by numerous opportunities created by China's rapid growth.
McDonald's has more than 60,000 employees in more than 1,100 restaurants in mainland China (after 20 years in the country) and according to The Wall Street Journal, it plans to expand to 2,000 outlets in three to five years, creating 10,000 new jobs. They have invested $250 million in Shanghai's Hamburger University – the company's seventh worldwide – which aims to become the 'Harvard' of the food industry.
Ronald McDonald will not be teaching flipping burgers and making fries, but management and how to run businesses effectively. There's nothing particularly new about this, but the fact that McDonald's is effectively setting up a management institute to solve its immediate and longer-term human resources problem, highlights that they are thinking big and planning for the longer-term. Whatever you might think about their products, and given the short-term character of innovation today, then this is at least worthy of note and recognition.

In 1907, admission to the racecourse cost just one shilling (5p) and was largely patronised by the nobility, gentry and sportsmen of the county. It was in 1988 when the late Sir Stanley Clarke took over, that the transformation into the racecourse that we know today truly began. Uttoxeter was turned into an award winning racecourse, with a reputation for customer service and innovation.
In that first year Uttoxeter Racecourse hosted only five meetings. Now, Uttoxeter Racecourse holds 25 race meetings spread evenly through the year. Whether it is traditional horse racing in winter, or glorious summer jumping, you are sure to find a fixture that suits you.
Uttoxeter's feature days are the Betfred Midlands Grand National that takes place in March and the Summer Cup on Sunday 2nd July. Many of the race meetings at Uttoxeter are themed, so look out for our prestigious Ladies Night on Thursday 15th June and our Family Fun Days throughout the Summer. If you're after an evening of fantastic entertainment, join us on Saturday 20 May when we have a Kaiser Chiefs taking the main stage and performing live here after racing! More details on the fixture page. There is truly something for everyone.
Martons Beer Festival
Our Marston's Beer Festival Raceday takes place in November and 2016 saw record numbers attending! As one of our most popular meets of the year you can find fantastic National Hunt racing alongside our Beer Tent with real ale demonstrations on show. That's not all - the Marston's mascots battle it out in the annual Mascot Race alongside Uttoxeter Racecourse's own 'Giddy Utch'...
Admission starts from just £10 per adult with children under 18 being admitted FREE. This makes racing at Uttoxeter a great day out for the whole family – perfect when you're looking for something to do in the Midlands any day of the week or weekend.

I was surprised by the price of the F40fd. It has the feel of an expensive quality product, but in fact it currently retails at only around £180. This compares well with other high-end seven and eight megapixel compacts such as the Canon PowerShot A570 IS (£180), Olympus FE-250 (£190), Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W90 (£220), Pentax Optio T30 (£220), Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX30 (£230) and Ricoh Caplio R6 (£230).
The design and layout of the camera is of a very high standard. Handling is very comfortable, with the slightly concave main mode dial doubling as a thumb grip, while the detailing on the front of the body provides a raised finger grip. The controls are solidly mounted, and overall build quality is superb. My only real problem with the control system is the 'F' button, which is usually reserved for frequently used shooting options such as ISO setting, exposure compensation and the like. However on the F40fd for some reason the top item on the F menu is power management, something which would be more sensibly located on the last page of the set-up menu.
Overall performance is unfortunately not as good as I'd initially hoped. Start-up time is over three seconds, which is slow for a camera in this class. Shot-to-shot time in single-shot mode is also slow at a round three seconds, while in long-period continuous mode it can only manage a shot every two seconds. It has two additional 'burst' modes, if you can call saving two pictures a burst. The movie mode is adequate, with VGA resolution at 30fps, and battery life is good too, with a big 1150mAh Li-ion rechargeable providing over 300 shots per charge.
Fortunately it has other features which go some way to compensating for the slow performance. The autofocus system is nice and fast, and operates quickly and reliably even in very low light. It has an AF assist lamp with a range of several meters, so it's a good choice for social photography. There are a couple of special shooting modes that will come in handy in this role too. The most obvious is the face detection mode, which, as I'm sure you're aware, automatically detects any human face in the frame, focuses on it and adjusts exposure to capture it properly. Fuji's system is one of the better ones, but like all face detection systems it isn't infallible, so it's as well to check it's focused on the right thing before taking the shot.
Not impressed. I bought one in new york as I figured I could get great deal over there, half the pictures were taken with the fuji, the other half with my old budget samsung L700 and the samsungs turned out better!
The images contain high levels of chromatic aberation, noticable barel distortion and the colours are cold and unatural. Sharpness is not that impressive either. It was hard not to under expose images in many situations too.
It does take stunning pictures in low light thanks to impressive results at high sensitivities but the daytime shots were much less good.
Overall I'd only give it 4/10 and put it straight onto ebay.
I just bought this camera and it's very good indoors and in low light but I have to say outdoors colours do look very cold on a CRT monitor although they look fine on a Standard CRT TV or LCD screen.
The quality of the photos at 100 ISO are not as good as many other cameras, but what it can do at the high ISO's is amazing. it's 800 ISO is as good as many camera's 200 ISO. I'd say this camera was made more for taking photos of people then landscapes. And most people will have their pictures taken indoors.
One great feature not mentioned is this camera has a white LED light built in. Not only can it come on to provide a bit of extra light for the camera to focus at night, but in video mode you can also have the light on to provide more light when filming.
I also love the mode that takes two shots, one without a flash and one with - before I've had to do all that manually and tell people not to move whilst I adjust my old camera settings.
The continuous shooting mode is by far the worse I've ever seen in any camera, it is so slow between shots - which I don't understand why because it has a two shot mode which works really well, but anything more then 2 shots and you're left waiting ages between each frame. Even reducing the size of the pixels to the lowest and using a very fast SD card doesn't seem to make any difference. It would seem there is software in the camera stopping it taking photos any quicker more then any physical limitation.
It's also a shame there's no auto bracketing feature.
I have fairly small and nibble fingers but even I struggle to turn the selector wheel - there's virtually nothing on there to grip on to.
I would say this is a good nightclubbing / indoor party camera. It would also be nice if the camera could shoot in 16:9 format for the new generation that only want to display photos on a TV.
What's interesting about this camera is most of it's short comings could easily be improved in software, i.e. Lack of auto bracketing, 16:9 photos, slow continuous shooting.
I hope Fuji listen to their customers and perhaps introduce a new firmware update that would add these features

Right from the beginning, it was a natural fit for both companies: a relentless quest for the purest sound, alongside a driving experience that is second to none.
While the mindset, standards and pedigree were familiar ground to us, our team of engineers faced an entirely new kind of playing field. Not least, designing for the close confines of a car cabin – and an environment more than capable of traveling at speeds up to 200mph. To bring true Naim Audio sound quality into this unique space we had to flatly reject traditional approaches, and re-write the rulebook of in-car music playback.
For this bespoke system, we started with a full acoustic analysis, every inch of each Bentley vehicle was assessed by our engineers. We even ascertained how the body panels behaved in motion, and the way varying sound levels reverberated around the cabin. From that, we developed a brand new amplifier that produces 1100 watts of power, in a space no larger than a conventional 420 watt unit.
Even the testing protocol needed to step up a gear – with the amp subjected to a specially-designed series of grueling tests for thermal management. We also needed to create a highly-complex six-layer circuit board, with electrical wiring uprated to three times its previous capacity and a special feed taken from the car's twin batteries. Then we had to ensure it could deliver breathtaking sound quality for years to come, in temperatures ranging from 70oC to - 40oC. Which it does, of course, every time.
Intelligent sound
Although a car cabin isn't perhaps the ideal listening environment to design for, it did give our engineering team the advantage of knowing where the listener is located at all times. That meant we could optimise sound for that precise position using Digital Signal Processing, or DSP. This is the electronic brain of the system, fine-tuned by our engineers in the listening room.
Through the DSP, we're able to tailor individual drive units to different areas of the car. For example, without it, a speaker projecting across a back seat might sound distorted or dull, because the upholstery absorbs some of the treble. It even re-times the sound so the bass from the boot-mounted subwoofer reaches the driver's ears at the same time as the treble from the front dashboard-mounted tweeters.
The new benchmark
The result? New worldwide benchmarks for in-cabin sound technology and incredible depth of music quality that has to be heard, to be believed.

How to stop rust: discover how to stop rust before -- and after -- it starts.
Preventing rust is far easier than removing it. Repairing rust damage once it starts is often an expensive and painstaking operation. Modern vehicles come equipped from the factory with excellent rust protection.
The absolute best way to keep rust from starting is to get the road salt off your vehicle. Don't wait until spring to find the only thing holding your vehicle together was the ice!
If rust has already started, today's rust encapsulator products actually encase the rust in an impervious coating -- stopping it in its tracks. Besides carrying a complete line of quality auto parts, Advance Auto Parts has the latest in car rust removal and car rust preventative products.
Why car rust prevention is so important:
Once rust starts, it's hard to stop. Rust is oxidation. Over time, rust can reduce your vehicle to a crumbling pile of red oxide. Road salt accelerates this process, but keeping your vehicle clean will help prevent rust.
Remove or encapsulate rust if it's already started, to prevent further damage. If you drive in severe winter conditions regularly, take the time to rinse off your vehicle weekly to prevent rust from getting started.
What you will need to promote car rust prevention:
Do-it-yourself difficulty guide for car rust prevention:
Estimated time required - 15 Minutes - 1 Hour
Car rust prevention: how to stop rust. Do it yourself & save!
A major cause of rust is road salt. The salt melts ice, but also carries moisture into the nooks and crannies of your car. Cleaning off the salt will help prevent rust. Remove or stop existing rust immediately.
Trust Advance Auto Parts for the quality auto parts and supplies you require for your vehicle maintenance jobs.

Vancouver - Day 3
... br>
I finally found my way to the HOHO bus stop and caught the bus back to the Gastown stop, which was the nearest stop to the Vancouver Lookout. The elevator ride to the Observation Deck took 40 seconds for the 168.6 metres. From the deck you have 360 degree views of Vancouver. It was a very clear day and the views were stunning. I wandered back to Canada Place and picked up the HOHO bus to Robson Street stop near the Barclay Hotel (where I was staying).
Day 2........460 Kilometres to Vancouver
... row and then once all busses had arrived, they took their turn in parking us beside the appropriate carriage. Very slowly we said 'Goodbye' to Kamloops and crossed the South Thompson river to head west before going south.
Our merchandise we had ordered yesterday was on our seats. You don't have to purchase what you have ordered, so after breakfast there was a fashion parade! Plenty of laughter once again and a congregation of ...
Poutine Food Truck?
... and masochistically decided to do the Grouse Mountain Grind- 2,800 steps up a mountain. Painful but rewarding. Especially since there was a lumberjack show at the top of the mountain with 2 very fit lumberjacks. Then went to Lynn Canyon, where we went across the suspension bridge and took a dip in the refreshingly cold creek. Then back to the US. First international stop of the trip over!
The final Experience - Beluga Whale!
... Dolphins, Penguins, Jelly fish - the list goes on, really, really enjoyable visit. Ending with a visit to the shop whereby we picked up a large soft toy version of Qila - hmmmm, now to get her in the suitcase.............
Weary, but thrilled with the experience we traipsed back to the harbour and onto our hotel where we had dinner and are now doing the final pack before flight home tomorrow.
Keep Calm and Cruise On
Julian nudges us awake, he's hungry he says. Christine calls shortly after, everyone is up and it's time for breakfast. We meet downstairs in the lobby for the short walk to Tim Hortons, a Canadian coffee house. The lobby is a sea of bright red shirts, emblazoned with crisp white letters, "Keep Calm and Cruise On." Genny ordered shirts for all of us to wear, in true family vacation style. As we walk the quiet streets to Tim Hortons, locals smile as they see the horde of people ...

text: Any man walking around shirtless in New York City should be arrested for disturbing the peace. We don't expect ladies to walk around shirtless; why have a double standard? I don't even approve of topless men on billboards. No wonder people don't respect one another—we've all become intimates. I favor a return to the civil standards of urban appearance that pertained before the '60s. In 1942 even Tarzan wore a suit and tie in Gotham (see Tarzan's New York Adventure). It's okay for men to go without their shirts on the beach or in a skins-and-shirts hoops game. Otherwise, keep your shirt on, pally.

Ventures Fund
Invests in and supports bold ideas to transform Departmental operations.
Invests in and supports bold ideas to transform Departmental operations.
The Secretary's Ventures Fund Announces 2017 projects. Learn more about the projects here.
The HHS Ventures Fund provides growth-stage funding and support to HHS employees with innovative ideas for how to dramatically improve their Office, Agency, or the Department's ability to carry out its mission. The Ventures Fund gives Department employees the opportunity to take a proven but still early-stage idea to the next level of implementation.
In March of 2013, Secretary Sebelius announced the "beta" year of the HHS Ignite Accelerator. Launched as part-seed fund and part-incubator, HHS Ignite (beta) supported 13 teams in order to test the concept of direct investments in Departmental projects.
A number of recommendations to the HHS Innovation Council came from that "beta" year of HHS Ignite. One recommendation was to create a competitive "Phase II" opportunity that would support the scaling of the best projects. To broaden the funnel of potential projects, the eligibility was expanded beyond simply those participating in HHS Ignite.
Our first three Rounds of Ventures funding have gone to 11 projects from across the Department.
Through our support of project teams over the last few years, we've gained better insights into 1) the particular value the Ventures Fund plays within the Department; and 2) the particular strengths we have at the IDEA Lab to best support particular innovations. We are continually refining our investment approach to ensure we have optimal impact and play a unique role in the ecosystem of internal funding streams.
In the third Round of funding, which occurred in early 2016, we sought applications for projects that address these domains of innovation: Re-engineering Core Processes; Strengthening the Department's Workforce; Increasing Citizen Engagement with Government; Improving Energy Usage and Waste Operations; Promoting Security + Innovation.
