text: With training camps approaching, Scouts Inc. ranks the NFL teams 1-32 at nine positions. Today's position: Offensive line. 1. San Diego Chargers The Chargers would rank No. 2 pretty much by default thanks to an impressive running game that posted nearly 5 yards a carry last season, but they were also able to hold opposing defenses to just 28 sacks in 2006. Left tackle Marcus McNeill was the gem of last year's draft class and does a great job of protecting the blindside of quarterback Philip Rivers from what is arguably the most crucial position on the line. San Diego also has a good blend of youth and experience with seasoned right guard Mike Goff holding down a starting spot in his 10th season in the league. This is a unit that can come right at opponents and create running lanes with drive blocking, or use finesse in pass blocking to give Rivers time to locate open receivers. Overall, they rely on athleticism more than bulk and pure power. 2. Indianapolis Colts The Colts don't have the best individuals at any one offensive line position, but they work together well, make few mistakes and are probably the best-coached unit in the league. Howard Mudd has them prepared well for every game and each player knows what the man next to him is doing. The Colts allowed the fewest sacks in the NFL last season (15) and managed to gain a respectable 4.0 yards per carry. They have an excellent left tackle in Tarik Glenn and four or five other smart, athletic linemen who are interchangeable and can play multiple positions. Everyone knows what the other players along the line are supposed to be doing, making it much easier to cover up mistakes. 3. Denver Broncos With one of the smallest lines in the league, the Broncos rely on quickness and agility to get the job done, registering 4.4 yards per carry and giving up just 31 sacks in 2006. They don't have a single returning starter on the line who weighs over 300 pounds, and former backup Chris Kuper (302 pounds) is the only projected starter who breaks that threshold. Denver's unit plays with an attitude and can cause opposing defensive lines to become a little timid, because they have a reputation for blocking around the knees. This causes defensive linemen to hold back a little to make sure they protect their legs. The Broncos also have one of the oldest offensive line units with only two players with less than 10 years of experience (Kuper and Adam Meadows are eight-year veterans). 4. Philadelphia Eagles The Eagles gained 4.8 yards per carry while holding opponents to just 28 sacks on the year. They are massive as a unit and have a wealth of experience at tackle with William Thomas on the left side and Jon Runyan on the right. Neither would be considered an elite athlete for the position, but both are more than adequate. What they lack in athleticism they make up for with reach (arm length) and technique. Guards Todd Herremans and Shawn Andrews are massive, powerful blockers, while center Jamaal Jackson appears to have a bright future. With the vertical passing game quarterback Donovan McNabb likes to employ, the line needs to give him time to let his receivers run their deep routes, and it does just that. 5. Cincinnati Bengals The Bengals have a combination of experience and youth with right tackle Willie Anderson entering his 12th season and the other four players following his lead. They have a quality left tackle in Levi Jones, who is more of a finesse-type blocker than a smashmouth drive blocker, and massive guards Bobby Williams and Andrew Whitworth, both of whom are in the 340-pound range. The center position is adequately handled by third-year man Eric Ghiaciuc, though he is still learning the nuances of the position at the NFL level. Cincinnati was in the middle of the pack last year with 36 sacks allowed and just 3.7 yards per carry, and having pretty much stayed put with the same group, it will be difficult to show much improvement. 6. New England Patriots Like the Colts, the Patriots have no stars but rather five quality linemen. They rely more on athleticism and intelligence than size and raw strength. Veteran offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia does a great job of molding a unit together that works in unison and avoids making mistakes. With an average of less than five years of experience across the board, they should do nothing but improve over the next few years after giving up just 29 sacks and rushing for almost 4 yards per carry last season. They lack the size and bulk to get much push, especially in and around the red zone, but can do a quality job of occupying opponents long enough to give running backs a seam to run through. 7. Washington Redskins The Redskins have one of the best tackle combinations in the league in Jon Jansen on the right side and Chris Samuels on the left. They are big parts of a unit that was one of only three in the NFL to give up fewer than 20 sacks (19) in 2006. At the same time, they were able to gain over 4.5 yards per carry and pile up the fourth-best overall rushing total (2,216 yards) in the league. With the highly respected Joe Bugel coaching the line, the players are starting to live up to expectations. They are not the heaviest line in the league, but they are athletic and do a great job of eliminating mistakes that can cause turnovers and losses. Center Casey Rabach has become the glue that holds the unit together and is just coming into his prime in his sixth season. Guard Randy Thomas is also in his prime. 8. New Orleans Saints The Saints had the best passing offense in the NFL at better than 281 yards per game, thanks in large part to the fact that they gave up just 23 sacks in 2006. However, they are well below average in the rushing department at just 3.7 yards per carry. Left tackle Jammal Brown is becoming a quality tackle entering his third year, and fifth-year right tackle Jon Stinchcomb gives the Saints a very good pair of bookends. Guards Jahri Evans and Jamar Nesbit and center Jeff Faine are more than adequate but hardly Pro Bowl-caliber, though as a group they do a respectable job of combining strength and athleticism to protect quarterback Drew Brees, who is not the most mobile quarterback in the league. They could stand to add some more power up front to give them stronger run blocking. 9. Jacksonville Jaguars The Jaguars have one of the most physical offensive lines in the league. They are stout and powerful in the middle with center Brad Meester and guards Vince Manuwai and Chris Naeole anchoring things. Left tackle Khalif Barnes and right tackle Tony Pashos do a very good job of protecting the edges against the speed rushers. With the league's third-best rushing offense (5.0 yards per carry), the Jaguars also managed to give up just 30 sacks. They are definitely better blockers when able to drive off the line and get some push at the point of attack in the running game. Line coach Andy Heck has done a very good job of utilizing the strength and power of his interior to attack opposing defenses, though the Jaguars struggle when defenses are able to stretch running plays laterally. 10. Chicago Bears The Bears are a good mixture of size and athleticism, youth and seasoned veterans. They have a good set of bookend tackles with left tackle John Tait being a fluid, easy mover and right tackle Fred Miller bringing a lot of experience and skills to the table. They did a good job of protecting quarterback Rex Grossman from outside pressure coming off the edges, and along with guards Ruben Brown and Roberto Garza and center Olin Kreutz, they held opposing defenses to just 23 sacks in 2006. The coaching staff would like to improve on the 3.8 yards per carry they gained last season, and that will likely have to happen from the middle of the line because neither tackle is a great drive-blocker. Kreutz, Brown and Garza are aggressive blockers with quick feet, but they lack the raw power to create big running lanes. 11. Minnesota Vikings The Vikings have one of the stronger left sides in the league with Bryant McKinnie teaming up with guard Steve Hutchinson, and 10-year veteran Matt Birk is the glue for this unit. The right side is a bit of a question with second-year pro Ryan Cook penciled in at right tackle and Artis Hicks holding down the right guard position. Minnesota should definitely be a left-handed team in 2007 and will need to shore up its pass protection because the unproven Tarvaris Jackson will be starting at quarterback. The fact that the Vikings gave up 43 sacks last season needs to be addressed, but their 4.1 yards per carry was respectable. Offensive line coach Pat Morris and his assistant Jim Hueber will have their hands full. 11. Pittsburgh Steelers The Steelers must replace retired center Jeff Hartings, and Chukky Okobi and Sean Mahan will fight it out for that spot. Veteran guard Alan Faneca is one of the team's best leaders, and fellow guard Kendall Simmons is also a quality starter. Left tackle Marvel Smith does a quality job and right tackle Max Starks holds his own as well, but as a unit the line gave up too many sacks (49). Pittsburgh posted a decent 4.2 yards per carry in 2006, and with new coach Mike Tomlin coming from the Vikings and Russ Grimm returning to coach the offensive line, the Steelers should continue to focus on the running game while reducing the number of sacks they give up. 13. Seattle Seahawks The Seahawks have perennial Pro Bowl left tackle Walter Jones back for his 11th season and he will be joined by a collection of linemen who are decent but not all-stars. Next to Jones will be second-year guard Rob Sims, who has just three starts on his résumé, and third-year center Chris Spencer, who is entering his second season as the starter. Right guard Chris Gray is a steady journeyman and right tackle Sean Locklear is adequate. Collectively, they allowed 49 sacks in 2006 and need to shore up their pass protection. Seattle's 4.0 yards per carry last season is just barely respectable, and this slightly undersized unit needs to be a bit more athletic to compensate for a lack of bulk. 14. Tennessee Titans The Titans are very young at both tackle positions but they are excited by the talent of third-year players Michael Roos and David Stewart, both of whom already have plenty of experience. They have a chance to become one of the best tackle combinations in the league over the next few years with their combination of size and athleticism. Center Kevin Mawae, who is in his 14th year, anchors the line and provides leadership along with 10-year veteran guard Benji Olson. They can show the younger players how to prepare for games as well as how to go after opponents. Offensive line coach Mike Munchak has done a very good job of assembling a unit that works well together and does not make many mistakes, evidenced by a 4.7-yard average on rushing attempts and just 29 sacks allowed. 15. Dallas Cowboys The Cowboys are a powerful zone-blocking team that sometimes struggles when their linemen are matched up one-on-one in space. They do a good job of scheming opponents to keep their linemen in tight, where they can use their bulk and strength to protect the pocket. They gave up a total of 37 sacks last season and posted a respectable 4.1 yards per carry, and the addition of Leonard Davis' bulk should help the running game. The question is whether he will line up at right tackle or right guard. If Davis moves inside to guard, then Marc Colombo will retain the right tackle spot. Center Andre Gurode and guard Kyle Kosier fill out the line and are serviceable but not great players. This is not the most athletic offensive line in the league, but they are massive and powerful. 16. San Francisco 49ers The 49ers managed a very respectable 4.9 yards per carry on the ground last year, a good indication that their offensive line is on the way up. Left tackle Jonas Jennings was a quality addition in 2005 before missing most of that season due to injury, but he started 13 games last season and showed promise. Right tackle Kwame Harris is massive, athletic and flexible, and he and Jennings played a part in the improvement of the passing game by helping to hold opponents to 35 sacks last season. Center Eric Heitmann is a quality starter (66 starts in five seasons) and is becoming the glue that holds the line together. As long as perennial Pro Bowl guard Larry Allen can stay healthy, they should be stout up the middle. 17. Green Bay Packers The Packers have a good tandem of tackles in LT Chad Clifton and RT Mark Tauscher, both of whom have been starters during each of their seven seasons in the league. They are solid but not elite, relying on technique and effort to compensate for a lack of premier athletic ability. Second-year pros Daryn Colledge and Jason Spitz should improve at the guard spots with another season under their belts, while fourth-year center Scott Wells holds down the middle. As a unit they were able to hold opposing defenses to 24 sacks, though part of the reason for that is the ability of quarterback Brett Favre to get rid of the ball before being hit. Improving on their 3.9 yards per carry last season will help slow down the pass rush even more. 18. Carolina Panthers The Panthers' offensive line may end up being one of the surprises of 2007. Losing left tackle Travelle Wharton for all of 2006 forced right tackle Jordan Gross to switch sides, and the line struggled to regain its stride. Having Wharton back in the lineup and Gross back on the right side will definitely improve Carolina's offense. Center Justin Hartwig was signed away from the Titans prior to last season but played only two games because of injury, and his return will further boost the line. If Wharton and Hartwig are able to stay healthy, the Panthers should be able to improve on the 3.9 yards per carry they gained in 2006. The 32 sacks they allowed is not an unusual number, but one that should fall if everyone avoids injury. Will Montgomery and Mike Wahle will fight it out at left guard while Evan Mathis should again be the right guard. 19. N.Y. Jets The Jets have one of the more promising young left tackles in the league in D'Brickashaw Ferguson, who along with right tackle Anthony Clement gives them a pair of huge bookends who can slow down the edge rush of an opposing defense. Center Nick Mangold showed a lot of promise as a rookie last season and should be an anchor for this line for years to come. Guards Pete Kendall and Brandon Moore provide a good mixture of toughness and veteran leadership. The unit ranked in the middle of the league with 34 sacks allowed last season and struggled on the ground, gaining a league-worst 3.5 yards per carry. Offensive line coach Tony Wise will have his hands full trying to improve the ground game enough to take pressure off the passing attack. 20. N.Y. Giants The Giants have an offensive unit that is a good combination of size and athleticism. Left tackle David Diehl has held down the position since being drafted by the Giants five years ago and is athletic with a good wingspan, allowing him to protect quarterback Eli Manning's blindside well. He is joined on the left side by guard Rich Seubert, who looks like he is finally fully recovered from a serious leg fracture suffered in 2003. Center Shaun O'Hara is steady and smart, while the right side is manned by powerful right tackle Kareem McKenzie and tough right guard Chris Snee. Last year they gave up just 25 sacks while gaining 4.7 yards per carry. This is a unit that needs to play mistake-free football and has the intelligence to be able to rely on technique rather than pure athleticism. 21. Atlanta Falcons The Falcons led the league by a wide margin with 5.5 yards per carry in 2006, but that stat is a bit misleading. Quarterback Michael Vick gained 8.4 yards per carry on his way to over 1,000 yards, but a lot of that production came on outside pass/run options when the line was actually pass blocking. If you take away Vick's totals, the team ends up with 4.3 yards per carry. Right tackle Todd Weiner and left tackle Wayne Gandy are quality tackles, but with nine and 13 years of experience, respectively, they are getting a bit long in the tooth. Both guard positions are pretty much up for grabs with second-round draft pick Justin Blalock, P.J. Alexander, Tyson Clabo and Kynan Forney fighting it out. Six-year starter Todd McClure does a good job holding down the center position. The Falcons need to cut down on the 47 quarterback sacks they gave up in 2006. 22. St. Louis Rams The Rams still have one of the premier left tackles in the league in Orlando Pace, who is entering his 11th season with the club. He missed eight games in 2006 and is starting to have thoughts of retirement, but as long as he is healthy, he remains a top blocker. Huge right tackle Alex Barron is in his third year and teams up with Pace to from one of the better tackle tandems in the league. The team is hopeful Andy McCollum will be back at center after missing all but one game in 2006 with a knee injury, and if that is the case, Richie Incognito will start at right guard and Claude Terrell would likely return to the left guard spot after missing 2006 with a wrist injury. The unit gained 4.3 yards per carry in 2006, but the 49 sacks it allowed were far too many. 23. Baltimore Ravens The Ravens have one of the all-time great left tackles in Jonathan Ogden, and they have a massive unit with only center Mike Flynn coming in at less than 320 pounds. Flynn and Ogden have been in the league for over 10 years, while right tackle Adam Terry and left guard Jason Brown are still young and need some seasoning. With Ogden protecting quarterback Steve McNair's blindside, the Ravens gave up the second-fewest sacks in the league last season (17). They will need to improve their running game, though, after they gained only 3.4 yards per carry in 2006. They tend to be more on the finesse side as a run-blocking unit and do not do a great job of creating running lanes in designated holes. 24. Kansas City Chiefs The Chiefs are going to have two new tackles in 2007: left tackle Damion McIntosh, who left the Miami Dolphins to sign with K.C., and possibly Chris Terry, who hopes to win the right tackle job vacated by the departed Kyle Turley. Neither McIntosh or Terry is considered an elite athlete and both will have to get used to playing with the rest of the line. At center, Casey Wiegmann has 11 years of experience to draw on and right guard John Welbourn is favored to return after starting four of nine games in 2006. Left guard Brian Waters has been steady in his previous seven years and appears to be solid. This is not a large unit and it needs to show more athleticism to be in the top half of the league. Last season it gave up 41 sacks while gaining 4.1 yards per carry. 25. Buffalo Bills The Bills are anchored by center Melvin Fowler and left tackle Jason Peters, both of whom are adequate at their positions. Right tackle Terrance Pennington started nine games in 2006, and guards Derrick Dockery (who started all 16 games in Washington last season) and Duke Preston (who started eight games for the Bills in 2006) need to get used to playing next to each other. None of Buffalo's offensive linemen would be considered elite athletes for their positions, but they all have size and bulk going for them. The Bills rushed for just 3.7 yards per carry and gave up 47 sacks. This is a relatively young unit that has a chance to grow into a decent group, but the Bills lack one premier player at his position to set the pace. With first-round draft pick Marshawn Lynch carrying the ball this year, they have a chance to improve on their ground game. 26. Tampa Bay Buccaneers The Bucs lack a premier tackle on either side, although they hope the acquisition of Luke Petitgout will solidify the left side. Petitgout does an admirable job of protecting the quarterback's blindside, but he is a marginal athlete for the position and relies on technique and long arms to get the job done. Jeremy Trueblood is a massive right tackle, while center John Wade and guards Davin Joseph and Dan Buenning are quality but not premier blockers. Tampa Bay was in the middle of the pack with 33 sacks allowed last season and picked up a pedestrian 3.8 yards per carry. With an added year of experience for the young guards and a veteran leader in Petitgout, this unit should improve on both numbers. 27. Arizona Cardinals The Cardinals had a league-worst 3.2 yards per carry last season, but were decent in the passing attack, allowing 35 sacks and finishing 10th in the league in total passing yards. They signed Mike Gandy away from Buffalo to anchor the left side of the line and drafted Levi Brown out of Penn State to hold down the right tackle spot. On paper, these two additions alone should improve their offensive line play. Undersized center Nick Leckey will fight it out with former Cowboy Al Johnson in the middle, and Deuce Lutui, Elton Brown and Reggie Brown will compete for the two guard positions. Arizona needs to decide who the starters will be early in training camp in order to provide some stability along the line. 28. Miami Dolphins The Dolphins will have a new, revamped offensive line when the 2007 season starts. After giving up 21 sacks in the first four games of 2006, they moved left tackle L.J. Shelton to right guard and right guard Damion McIntosh to left tackle. With McIntosh and starting guard Jeno James now gone, Miami will be looking at new players at as many as four positions, including second-round draft pick Samson Satele at center and Shelton possibly at right tackle. If Satele is able to take over the center position, expect Rex Hadnot to move from center to guard and newly acquired Chris Liwienski to guard. This should be a strong run-blocking group, but will need some time to form a unit that can provide quarterback Trent Green with time to locate his receivers. Line coaches Hudson Houck and Tim Davis will have their hands full, but they are good teachers. 29. Detroit Lions The Lions have an adequate left tackle in 2001 first-round draft pick Jeff Backus, who has started every game during his career. Dominic Raiola and his 80 consecutive starts at center give them some stability and two building blocks. But the Lions gave up the second-most sacks in the NFL last season (63) and gained only 3.7 yards per carry. They signed guard Edwin Mulitalo from the Ravens and tackle George Foster away from the Broncos in an attempt to shore up their running attack, and with their combined 688 pounds the two should make Detroit stronger on the ground. The Lions have a lot of size, but it still remains to be seen if they are athletic enough to stop the pass rush coming off the edge. 30. Houston Texans Like most teams near the bottom of this list, the Texans had a hard time settling on a permanent starting five last season. Center Mike Flanagan missed seven games due to injury after coming over from the Packers, while left tackle Jordan Black comes over from Kansas City to give a boost and right tackle Eric Winston should benefit from the seven starts he got last season as a rookie. The offense hopes to improve on the 3.9 yards per carry it posted in 2006 as well as the 43 sacks it gave up. The play of guards Chester Pitts and Fred Weary was one of the few bright spots for the Texans and should get better with more experience. Black is the key at left tackle; the line should be vastly improved if he meets expectations. 31. Cleveland Browns The Browns were one of the worst running teams in the NFL last year at just 3.6 yards per carry and also gave up 54 sacks. Cleveland has been searching for a left tackle for some time and hopes to finally have the position firmed up with first-round draft pick Joe Thomas of Wisconsin. Center is a question as well after last season's free-agent prize, LeCharles Bentley, was lost to a knee injury on the first day of training camp in 2006 and may never play again. The Browns settled on Hank Fraley toward the end of training camp and he played as well as could be expected for a player who was their third choice. About the only position with any stability is left guard, where the solid Eric Steinbach was signed away from Cincinnati to hold down that spot. It is very difficult to have a good, cohesive line when you are constantly shuffling the lineup the way the Browns have in recent seasons. 32. Oakland Raiders The Raiders gave up 72 sacks last season, far and away the most in the league, thanks to a line that looked disorganized and was poorly coached. Left tackle Robert Gallery took a lot of the blame, but there is more than enough to go around for his fellow linemen. Giving up so many sacks put the offense in too many holes and never allowed the running game to get on track. All things considered, the Raiders' 3.9 yards per carry last season was not horrible, but is nothing to brag about, either. There has been talk about moving Gallery to right tackle and left guard Barry Sims out to his old spot at left tackle, but no matter what the Raiders do, they need to settle on a starting unit as early as possible to allow the players to get used to each other and their new positions.

I have this jacket in black and have received many compliments on the style and fit. It is warm, but light weight, and very stylish. I have many jackets but this quickly became my favorite. When indoors, I just folded the jacket up and put it into my tote. I bought the black jacket at regular price and when this purple jacket went on sale, I had to buy it also. The purple is vibrant and more beautiful in person. The water lily stitching is beautiful and adds interesting details to the jacket. I love it.

Recent reviews
Good 3.8 /5 from 33 reviews
It was ok, but I expect more for the price ($200/night). Also, they kept calling the room to let us know that the kitchen was closing. Rather irritating.
Friendly staff and clean. Location is good, to stop for a couple of days to enjoy nature close to Nairobi.
Very, very good customer service and always plenty of vegetarian options. Room was clean, scenery/wildlife beautiful, and food delicious. Would return in a heartbeat.
Very friendly personnel, affordable stay, good enough food. My daughters loved it, especially the pool which we had to ourselves all the time.
I think the hotel's condition is too old to justify a 5 star level. Room very small and all facilities quite old.. despite this weakness, other aspects acceptable
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Medical Volunteers
Medical volunteers are the backbone of Orbis programmes. Medical volunteers from all over the world donate their time and energy to work with Orbis to prevent blindness and restore sight. Referred to as volunteer faculty, these specialists include ophthalmologists, orthoptists, biomedical engineers, anesthetists, and ophthalmic nurses.
More than 400 medical professionals are members of Orbis's volunteer faculty pool, coming from such diverse countries as Argentina, Israel, Great Britain, Australia, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan, India, and the United States.
Volunteer faculty share their expertise with colleagues in developing nations through consultations, surgical demonstrations, wet lab supervision, lectures, and workshops during a Flying Eye Hospital visit or a hospital-based programme.
In addition to the routine responsibilities of carrying out their work, volunteer medical faculty have the extra challenge of working in the limited space onboard the Flying Eye Hospital or within local settings, making due with the existing equipment. Volunteer placements last between one and three weeks and can be either individual or team placements.
Orbis medical volunteers must have a minimum of four years of practical experience. Additionally, two references from current Orbis medical volunteers are required. If you would like to find out more about becoming a member of Orbis' volunteer faculty, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Dezember 2003
BeschreibungThis book helps the reader to understand and mediate the debates that arise when gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, intersex, and queer/questioning students and their families ask for equal treatment from the schools and are opposed by conservative parents. Sexual Orientation and School Policy is a case study of one school districts' attempt to adopt and implement policies that include sexual orientation. This book describes the work of the Safe Schools Coalition who advocate and educate for equal rights for gay lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, intersex, and queer/questioning (GLBTIQ) students. Concerned Citizens, a group of conservative parents, opposed the inclusion of sexual orientation in the policies. Factors that either facilitated or impeded the implementation of the policies are highlighted, as are the strategies employed by the Safe Schools Coalition in educating opponents.

THE OTHER WOMANMature
Leanne Delavan had loved Joey Duduka for as long as she could remember. And she was certain he loved her, too. But Joey preferred a woman that wasn't as wild and unpredictable as Leanne, which was why he decided to marry plain, old Bobbie Clemson, instead.
No one was more surprised than Leanne when Joey and Bobbie invited her to their wedding. It was there that she first laid eyes on Joey's older brother, Kevin. Leanne was shocked; she hadn't even known that Joey had a brother. At twenty-five, Kevin was three inches older than Joey, with the same corn-clored hair and sparkling blue eyes, long, sharp nose, and clean, square jaw as his gorgeous younger brother. Leanne thought they looked enough alike to be twins. During the ceremony, she batted her long, dark lashes at him and smiled a seductive smile. He grinned back at her, obviously interested.
During the reception, which was held at the VFW in Monotoning, Kevin rose from his chair to toast his brother and his new bride. When he raised his glass in salute, he winked at Leanne over the rim of his glass.
After all the toasts had been made and everyone had settled down to their chicken and steak dinners, Kevin migrated from the bride and groom's table to where Leanne sat with a boring couple she didn't know, named Harmony and Robert Lockett.
Soon, it was time for Joey and Bobbie to cut their wedding cake.
"Oh, how sweet," Leanne grumbled sourly under her breath. She almost felt herself melt with unfulfilled desire when Joey wiped a fat dollop of frosting from the round tip of Bobbie's nose and stuck his finger in his mouth.
Someone dragged a chair onto the dance floor and a blushing Bobbie sat on it. Joey knelt before her. He lifted the heavy hem of his wife's white gown up past her knee. The band immediately struck up a bawdy rendition of The Stripper. Joey slid Bobbie's lacy, white gartr half-way down her thigh...He stopped...He drew the garter back up Bobbie's leg, again.
The males in the audience clapped their hands and stamped their feet, and whistled through their teeth; there were even a few mildly lewd remarks. As one, all the bachelors in the crowd---and there were quite a few of them, Leanne noted with glee--leapt from their chairs and rushed like a pack of hungry wolves to form a tight semi-circle, not far from Joey and Bobbie. All except for Kevin, who appeared content to remain where he was, seated next to Leanne.
Joey glanced over his shoulder. He waved at Kevin. "Yo, bro', what's the problem? You shy or something? Haul your butt over here."
Kevin hesitated long enough to offer Leanne an apologetic shrug. Then he rose from his chair and ambled onto the floor, with his hands stuffed deep inside the pockets of his shiny, black trousers and an amused smirk on his handsome face, to join his lusty contemporaries.
Joey wiggled the garter down Bobbie's thick ankle and over her shoe. He flung his right hand over his shoulder, sending the garter sailing high into the air. The drummer executed an intense and serious roll. Men and boys crowded together, their bodies colliding with each other, and their hands stretched upward, as they attempted to grab the flimsy ringlet out of the air. One guy Leanne didn't know jumped up on the balls of his feet and managed to grab the garter before the kid standing next to him could snatch it from his hand. He waved the garter for everyone in the room to see and admire.
Kevin sauntered back to their table, that amused grin still on his face. "You didn't try very hard," Leanne taunted him in a teasing, playful manner.
"Maybe I didn't want it," he said. "And come to think of it, I don't remember you trying very hard to catch the bride's bouquet back at the church."
"Maybe I didn't want it," she flung his words back at him.
They shared their first laugh together. Leanne tilted her head toward Kevin, lightly touching his broad shoulder with her fingertips.
The bandleader spoke into his microphone. "And now, ladies and gentlemen, dancing together for the first time and wife, I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Duduka."
For just a second, Leanne's heart clenched like an angry fist inside her chest as she watched the man of her dreams and his new wife glide like a pair of graceful swans across the smooth, varnished floor. After another second, her body relaxed again and she smiled. Somehow, the sight of Joey and Bobbie dancing together didn't hurt half as bad as she'd thought it would---now that she'd found Kevin. She actually felt happy for the new couple.
That night, Leanne danced with wild abandon. Her auburn hair swirled around her frecked shoulders and she made it a point to jiggle the tops of her big, round breasts in Kevin's face. Whenever the band played a slow song, she wrapped her arms around his rugged torso and hugged herself close to him.
They left the floor and returned to their table.
Kevin looked at her with inquiring eyes; he smiled. She smiled back at him, her face and eyes aglow with glorious anticipation. Kevin inclined his face toward hers. Leanne closed her eyes. Their lips met.
She heard herself moan. "Mmmm..." Her breath left her body in a rush.
Somewhere in the darkness, she heard Robert Lockett groan. "Oh, Geeze, Louise, you two, get a room."
Her hand sought Kevin's lap underneath the table. Kevin's strong hand explored the silken smoothness of her thigh. She experienced a warm, electric tingling sensation there and in several other significant portions of her body.
She was happy but sad when Kevin pulled away from her. Opening her eyes, she was not surprised to discover that Robert and Harmony had moved to another table.
Kevin looked deep into Leanne's sharp, brown eyes. In a casual, almost conversational tone of voice, he said, "So, what are you doing here?"
Leanne was so taken aback by his question that it was a second before she could reply. "Your brother invited me."
He laughed. "I know. You should've heard the fight they had when Joey brought up your name. I thought for sure she was going to rip him in half. She doesn't like you very much."
"Well, I can't say the feeling isn't mutual."
"I figured as much. Bobbie doesn't like any woman who even looks at my brother. Her problem is she's way too sincere. Joey was nice to her, the way he is to everyone he meets. She opened her legs for him, and then she became afaid that some other woman like you would come along and try and take him away from her, before she could get him to put a ring on her finger. But that's not the reason they're getting married. I'll let you in on a little secret. She claims she's pregnant."
"Claims? You don't think she's pregnant?"
"No, not at all. Now, I'm no man of the world, but I have been around the horn a few times, as they say. The night they broke the good news to our parents, there was something in her face and eyes, and in her voce that just didn't ring right to me. I have this funny feeling that in about three months from now, when she doesn't start to show, she's going to have an awful lot of explaining to do. I just wish she'd had enough steel in her spine to confess to Joey before tonight. She could've saved us all alot of grief.
"You're the kind of woman my little brother likes the most," Kevin went on in his smooth, slow, unhurried drawl. "I think if you're patient and you're willing to hang in there a little while longer, you just might get what you want."
"I guess this means you're not going to sleep with me, tonight," Leanne said.
"Oh, I'll sleep with you, all right, if that's what you want. There's no problem there. It's not like you'd be cheating on Joey. He's married---at least, for the moment. I just thought I should be fair and let you know what might or might not happen if we did sleep together." He leaned closer to her on his chair. "So, how about it? You still game."
Leanne sighed. Her heart slammed like a hammer against the inner wall of her chest and she felt as if she had a fever. Almost against her will, her gaze strayed to Joey and Bobbie dancing together on the crowded floor. Joey's beautiful eyes gleamed like two pieces of polished blue topaz in the stark glare of the overhead lights and he was smiling at Bobbie, grinning, that easy, affable, mischievous, little-boy smile, which Leanne thought was cute and adorable, and made him look totally irresistible. There was no use denying that the attraction she felt for Joey was still there and that it was stronger than ever. She still wanted Joey Duduka worse than she had ever wanted any other man in her young life, and now, it looked like she could never have him.
She shook her head. "I don't know..."
And then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Bobbie storm off the floor, forcing her body like a battering ram through the crowd. Her gown swirled around her feet and her high heels clomped like a pair of horse's hooves against the wooden floor. Bobbie had a pinched look around her eyes and her puffed-out lower lip trembled uncontrolably. A lone tear streamed down her porcine cheek.
Joey stood all alone in the middle of the crowd and watched his wife walk away from him, his arms flung outward at his sides, looking lost, bewildered, and helpless.
Chloe Mulligan, Bobbie's maid of honor and best friend, hurried after Bobbie, who had just passed the bar and was heading down the dark hallway to the ladies' room.
"Damn," Kevin swore softly under his breath. "I didn't think she had it in her." He rose from his chair and made his way to his abandoned brother.
Kevin and Joey exchanged a few words. Then Kevin hurried over to the bride and groom's table and whispered in his father's ear. The three of them, Kevin and Mr. and Mr.s Duduka, joined Joey on the dance floor. They were joined several minutes later by Mr. and Mrs. Clemson. Mrs. Duduka and Mrs. Clemson both wore anguished expressions on their pallid faces. Their men looked like they wanted to fight each other. Leanne saw their lips move, but she couldn't hear a word they said.
The band stopped plaing. An uneasy tension flooded the hall. Everyone stopped dancing. Couples backed away from Kevin and Joey and their parents, and Bobbie's parents, and drifted back to their tables, mumbling and shaking their heads.
Kevin placed a hand on Joey's shoulder. Joey broke free of his brother's tenuous grasp and strode across the room, to the hallway leading to the ladies' room. He looked like a man going to his own execution.
Leanne's heart leapt in her throat, and for a moment, she thought she was going to cry. She felt hopeful, then happy, then angry and defiant, like a spoiled, willful child. She rummaged through her purse, until she unearthed her pack of cigarettes and lighter. Clutching her props in her hand, she rose from her chair and moved as quickly, quietly, and unobtrusively as she could to the ladies' room.
The bathroom door was closed, but there was a thin thread of bright, white light underneath it. On the other side of the door, as if from far away, she heard the muffled sound of someone softly sobbing. Bobbie. "I am so very sorry!"
Then Joey's voice. "But why didn't you tell me this sooner?"
"Because I was afraid."
"Afraid? Afraid of what?"
"I was afraid that if I did tell you the truth, you'd get mad and hate me, and you wouldn't want to marry me, and you'd marry someone pretty, like that damn Leanne Delavan, instead."
"Oh, baby doll. Leanne's nice and all, but I don't love her. I love you."
"Yes, really."
"After all the mess I've made, are you sure you still want to be married to me?"
"Of course I do."
Leanne fled like a burglar down the dark hallway.
Kevin was back in his chair when she returned to their table. "Come on," she commanded, grabbing his hand and attempting to drag him out of his chair.
"Where are we going?" he asked.
"To the closest motel," she said.

Okay so you guys are probably thinking I'm crazy for starting another story. But I have some cool inspiration boggling through my head. I will update on my other's stories soon, so don't sweat it. Anyway here goes the story and some facts. This story is modern day oh yeah! This story focuses on popular vs. geeks I guess, and it has something to do with surfing and competition and kataang love. Boo ya! So I have some pairings to announce and for once there is no Tokka in this fanfic (gasp) I decided to do a crazy Toph pairing you might not believe without further adieu; Kataang, Maiko, Sukka, and last Joph the only name I could think of aka Jet x Toph= Joph :P here we go. The ages for everyone are 19 except for Toph and Aang who are 18. Also you may notice while Katara is at school she's very quiet but when she's surfing which is her passion, she can be very open. Oh, and be sure to check out my other stories ;)
Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar: The Last Airbender… duh!
"So this is supposed to be the greatest school in the world?" Toph asked half heartedly. She was always kicked out of different schools, due to her rowdy behavior and rebellion. But now her parents managed to enroll her in Four Nations High School. Her best friend Katara stood right by her; she had also been enrolled in this school due to her 4.0 grade point average. Only a year ago her brother Sokka, had gotten in much to Katara and Toph's surprise. They still didn't know how he managed to get in.
"Yeah, Toph this is the greatest school in the world, I mean only the best is allowed to go here. Let's go inside." Said the blue eyed beauty, Toph obliged and followed her friend. Katara couldn't believe how huge the school was. It had a total of four floors, and it had everything inside to match with each element and nation. The two girls didn't know that class had started more than five minutes ago, and were pushed into class, a huge gym. They were met by a total of 24 classmates, and a musuclar teacher in a red jogging suit. He looked threatning. Katara also noticed a handsome man of 18 years, was looking directly at her. His tattoos were very intriguing. But she was pushed into the center of the gym with Toph. The teacher began to scold them.
"Well you lackeys, you must not know the rules around her. I notice you must not take school seriously.," Master Zhao said to the two girls."especially since you were late." He smirked noticing he embarrassed the girls as everyone else snickered at the confused two.
"Yeah. At least you found out one thing about me. I think school sucks." Toph said proudly. Katara shook her head in disappointment- as usual Toph's snippy comebacks got them both into deep trouble, not to mention they had to run twenty laps. After showering and changing into fresh clothes the friends finally were prepared and ready for their next class. Everything went wrong until Katara, turned the corner and bumped into someone, her books fell out of her hands, as well as the other person's.
"Watch where you're going loser!" a gruff voice said. She looked up to see a pale skinned male, he had dark hair, and a large scar over his left eye. She swallowed a lump in her throat formed by absolute fear.
"Calm down Zuko. Keep your cool. The newbies are usually stupid." Said another pale skinned male, he also had dark hair, Katara noticed he was the same guy in gym class. Katara realized he was quite good looking, okay maybe a lot. But right now he was on low charts with both Katara and Toph.
"It's not her fault you weren't paying attention you son of a-"Toph started bravely. Until Katara shook her head violently in Toph's direction. She quickly pulled Toph into the classroom. Throughout the whole school day, Katara learned that the people she met in the hallway were the most popular group in the entire school, they also had a band named "The Elements" their names were Zuko Agni, Aang White, Suki Kyoshi, and Mai Daggers. Katara also learned her brother was apart of their crew, much to her surprise.
"Don't forget your reports; they are due in two weeks." Mr. Pakku yelled, as the students started to flood back into the hallway. The kids gave hurried responses of 'yes sir' and 'finally school's over' . Katara and Toph had made it out into the parking lot. Katara and Toph had found their way to Katara's blue petite but cute van. When Toph had finally, entered the car, Katara drove off.
"Well school wasn't that bad today." Katara spoke as she turned a corner.
"That's a bunch of B.S. Katara. I mean come on, those guys were total jerks, in the hallway." Toph explained
"Who cares let's just enjoy the beach today." Katara stated. The two girls were, the best surfers ever, at Ember Island. That's the only way you could ever get in, being the best. The two had started surfing at young ages, and both want to eventually go pro.
15 minutes later
"Why are we going to Ember Island, again? You clearly said only the best surfers go there." Complained Aang, as he sat in the back of Sokka's truck.
"Yep." Sokka answered.
"You suck at surfing." Zuko stated group shared laughter as they all heard Sokka grunt angrily, and he scoffed before speaking again.
"Bastards, I never said I could surf. My sister can really rip the waves though." Sokka explained. Aang looked at his friends, and gave a forced smile. He felt horrible about saying that rude comment to that blue eyed beauty, he met in the hallway that morning at school. Being absorbed in his thoughts Aang never noticed they arrived. He finally stepped out the truck as Sokka called his name various times. They all noticed that Sokka paid attention to a girl in a blue swimsuit, and riding on a white and blue surfboard. While he looked at another girl in a green and black bathing suit. Aang noticed that the two girls, who Sokka was watching closely, were experts. Unfortunately the wave knocked the two girls down. As the two walked to shore, Aang almost drooled as he saw the mocha skinned girls, firm and tight midsection. But he almost fell over in shame, as he noticed it was the same girl that he called a stupid newbie. He avoided all eye contact with her.
Katara felt the water rush over her quickly, she loved being in her element. The water was so soothing, she quickly walked up to shore with her blind friend. She gave a small chuckle, as she heard her brother's words.
"Yo sis, the waves knocked you out back there."
"No shit, Snoozles." Toph interrupted and smiled when she felt his heart rate quicken of anger and embarrassment. Katara's breath hitched the same time as Toph's as they saw, the "popular kids". Katara scrunched her nose before asking her question. They all suddenly shivered as they felt Katara grow angry.
"What the hell are they doing here?" Katara asked harshly.
"We're just hanging out, it's a free world." Aang replied, taking out cans of soda. He couldn't help but stare at the water bender. Her swimsuit hugged her curves a bit too much, and not to mention she was wet. He was snapped out of his stupor, as Toph snapped her fingers in his face. Katara almost smiled when she noticed the boy's heated gaze.
"Well let's just keep one thing straight assholes," Toph began. "you may be so called popular at school, but here we run this beach." She said rudely. Katara agreed with a sharp nod. She saw Aang look at her with awe and she flipped him off, he immediately grimaced at the action.
"No need to get hasty. We just want to hang out," Sokka started. "they are my friends after all."
Katara rolled her eyes. "Whatever. Your decision to bring them, not mine, enjoy the beach." She managed to give them a forced smile as she finished her sarcastic comment. The others returned the smile, and quickly turned their attention to something else. By the look on Toph's face, she knew another wave was coming. And she was right by Toph's words.
"Yo Katara, let's get back in the water." Toph suggested. Katara grew excited as she began to walk back to the foamy shores. She heard Toph say something hilarious yet rude.
"Zuko, you sound like a girl when you sing." Toph added and quickly rejoined Katara, they surfed for that entire day, until the sun started to set.
Normal POV
Katara finally grew tired as she went through her second wipeout. She found her way back to the light sand that tickled her wet feet. She put her surfboard down in the sand, and looked around. She saw that Sokka and his friends were busy playing a game of beach volleyball, and Toph was playing with them; after all of her bad talk. Katara sighed sadly and quickly grabbed her journal out of her duffel, and opened it. She felt a good set of new lyrics coming into her mind, and jotted them down. She put her book back away, and lay down on her beach towel. The breeze felt good, against her cold body. She hurried into a trance as she suddenly heard a beautiful melodic sound reach her ears. She made sure no one was watching her as she walked, to the large beach house where the sound came from.
'A guitar.' She thought to herself. She went inside one of the beach houses. She turned the corner inside the small home, the music getting louder, every minute she got closer. She gasped as she saw Aang. She had heard him play before, but not like this. He looked so calm and relaxed, unlike when he was on stage; his face usually twisted in a stoic expression. She and Toph had heard, Aang and his band play last summer at a concert they had went too, but she would never let him know that. She was so absorbed into the hypnotic sound of the guitar strings and the music they were producing, that she bumped into one of the shelves on the wall, and knocked down the books that lay on them. She grew embarrassed as she saw him have an angered look on his face, as he met her ocean blue orbs.
"What the hell are you doing!" he yelled. She couldn't even answer, or find coherent words.
She only stood there; whishing the floor would consume her whole. When would this day end?
Hey guys, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Please leave feedback, opinions, etc.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
Norm Coleman will rage, rage against the dying of the light. CQ Politics:
Republican Norm Coleman filed the promised notice of appeal Monday challenging a trial court's ruling that Democrat Al Franken is the winner of Minnesota's 2008 Senate race.
The appeal to the state Supreme Court will be based on the same arguments Coleman's legal team made unsuccessfully during the seven-week election trial, though with a focus on what his attorneys say are constitutional violations made during the initial count and six-week recount.
Huh. That doesn't sound like it will be very successful.
The Coleman campaign said it expected the state Supreme Court to take the case on an expedited basis, with attorney Jim Langdon estimating oral arguments could take place "anywhere from two weeks to two months from now."

We have been watching the evolution of the LED industry over the past few years and have seen a great deal of change. To be honest it is difficult for us to keep up with, so I am sure it is even more difficult for facility engineers & property managers.
One of the biggest changes and improvements we have seen has been with the LED T8 lamp. Just 3 years ago these lamps would cost a commercial buyer about $50 each. Now they range from $9 to $20 in price and the higher priced lamps cost a bit more because they offer some great benefits!
We are particularly impressed with Keystone Lighting Technologies, they have a great road map for their LED lamps. Keystone has traditionally been a ballast manufacturer and have been doing so since 1945. With the onslaught of LED lamps and systems they made a big change to their product offering and system capabilities. Keystone LED T8 lamps are now leading the market place in quality and innovation!
Keystone has 3 very different options when it comes to LED T8 lamps. The DirectDrive, SmartDrive & ComboDrive are the portfolio leaders.
The DirectDrive LED T8 lamp is known as the "ballast bypass" lamp. DirectDrive LED tubes eliminate the need for an external driver or ballast. For new construction installations, simply connect the 120-277V line voltage directly to the sockets. For retrofit installations, bypass the existing ballast by cutting the wires and connecting the 120-277V line voltage directly to the sockets. No ballast or driver is required.
The DirectDrive LED T8 lamps have a single end live feed. Each lamp comes with a label for marking changes made to existing fixtures that are being retrofitted from fluorescent to LED DirectDrive. Shop for Keystone DirectDrive LED T8 tubes NOW
Of note: DirectDrive LED T8 lamps will only operate on non-shunted sockets. Typically these sockets are in T8 fluorescent instant start fixtures. Verify non-shunted sockets are installed before using a DirectDrive LED. Below are a few pictures of the various socket configurations you may find. For more information on non-shunted sockets click here.
The SmartDrive LED T8 lamp is known as the "ballast dependent" lamp. These are plug and play and easy to install. Switching from fluorescent lamps to LED SmartDrive lamps is as easy as changing a light bulb. Simply remove the existing fluorescent lamps and replace with Keystone SmartDrive LED tubes.
No special instructions, no tools, no rewiring. The LED tubes run off the existing T8 instant or program start electronic ballast. Energy efficiency in an instant. These lamps are DLC qualified and offered with shatterproof coating if needed. They are UL classified, 5 year limited warranty included! Visit SmartDriveLED.com for our ballast compatibility list.
Shop for Keystone SmartDrive LED T8 tubes NOW!
The ComboDrive LED T8 lamp is the best of both Worlds! For the electrician or property manager who wants to have flexibility to choose which option they want in the field than the ComboDrive LED T8 lamp is the choice! These lamps can be directly wired to mains power or operate on a compatible instant start or programmed start electronic ballast! When using these lamps and direct wiring them to main power you must use non-shunted sockets.
These lamps will operate on most instant start or programmed start electronic T8 ballast. For compatibility please see SmartDriveLED.com
Shop for SmartDrive LED T8 tubes NOW!
As always if we can be of any assistance please do not hesitate to call or click the live chat button. We are here to make your next LED T8 lamp purchase an easy one.

Google Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P India Price Revealed; Nexus 6 Price Slashed
Google Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P India Price Revealed; Nexus 6 Price Slashed
Posted by
Seema Rathore
on October 8, 2015
Google has confirmed the launch date of its new Nexus
phones, thanks to a slip up on Google Play Store. The pricing of the two phones was already online. Flipkart, on its website, has already started featuring Nexus 6P.
The phones will be launched on October 13.
At a starting price of Rs 39,999, the Nexus 6P was listed and the Nexus 5X would cost Rs 31,900. However, a 'coming soon' tag is there in the individual listing pages for the smartphones with no other information and it's possible these prices may not be the final ones and may change.
A 5.7-inch AMOLED display with QHD (1440x2560p) resolution is one of the new Nexus 6P feature. For security purpose, it comes with the integrated Nexus Imprint fingerprint sensor on the back. The smartphone is reportedly powered by Snapdragon 810 processor. It has 3GB RAM for hassle free performance.It comes in three storage variants: 32, 64 and 128GB. For storage expansion, there is no SD card support.
The 6P has a 12.3MP rear camera with 1.55micron sensor support which means that it can capture more light, thus delivering better lowlight photos and is no doubt an attractive feature of the gadget. The camera also supports 4K recording. It can capture videos at 240 frames per second.
The front camera is 8MP. For a Nexus smartphone, it is the highest resolution for selfie camera till date. An all-metal, 7.33mm thick body gives the phone an attractive look. The smartphone features in white, grey and aluminium finishes. It has a 3,450mAh battery. For music lovers, it comes with front-facing stereo speakers.
With a 5.2-inch screen, Nexus 5X comes with relatively lower Full HD resolution of1080x1920p . It is powered by the 64-bit Snapdragon 808 processor and has 2GB RAM. 16GB and 32GB are the storage capacities of the smartphone and has no microSD card support.

Going upstairs no longer means leaving your wheelchair or powerchair. Whether you need a vertical lift to conquer steep slopes or an incline lift for your staircase, you will find the best solution that empowers safe floor-to-floor travel and full use of your outdoor space.
Purchasing a platform lift can be a life-changing choice – but the decisions don't stop there. Here are some things to consider when choosing the best platform lift for your needs:
If you need to get your wheelchair or powerchair up a wide-set straight or curved staircase, an incline platform lift might be right for you. However, a steeper incline supported by a narrow staircase might call for a vertical platform lift. Our local teams are here to help you evaluate individual mobility goals as well as property requirements.
Deciding whether to rent or buy a vertical platform lift* depends on your budget and need. For example, if you expect to use your lift for only a short period of time, renting might be your best option. On the other hand, long-term usage might warrant the purchase of a new lift. Regardless, 101 Mobility offers affordable pricing that will fit your budget.
*Rental options only available for vertical platform lifts.
Some platform lifts can only carry up to 500 pounds, while others can support up to 750 pounds. Assessing the weight of potential users is important to finding the lift best built for your needs.
It is important to determine whether the platform lift can accommodate the configuration of your mobility device. Things to look at are wheel structure and width of platform.
What happens after installation? After the platform lift becomes a part of your home, it's important to have support for any issues that might arise. All lifts are backed by 101 Mobility's One-Year Limited Service Warranty in addition to the brand's individual warranty. Be sure that the support you receive after purchase satisfies any foreseeable (and unforeseeable) needs.
