So, in the selfless educational spirit shown by Damage, Basic Instinct and The Lover, here is a cut-out-and-weep guide to the celluloid mating dance, past and present.
For Your Eyes Only
The eyes are the windows of the soul. Unfortunately, in Fatal Attraction, Glenn Close's are double-glazed, a fact Michael Douglas is unaware of when the latter-day Medusa narrows her mascara meaningfully in his direction at a book publishing party. Yep, their eyes met across a crowded room, a cliche as big as life but not nearly so natural (cf also No Way Out, Letter to Brezhnev, Falling in Love).
Improve upon this important first impression by staring as if your contact lenses had suddenly melted, so blinding is the vision now before you (see Juliette Binoche / Jeremy Irons doing Damage). Or try Kathleen Turner's subtle combination, culled from The Man With Two Brains: sultry ogle, drop a shoulder strap, lick glossy lips, toss hair. She slinks, therefore she is.
But the ultimate gaze to duplicate is Rhett's once-over of Scarlett, a peer so potent that the Southern vixen declares, 'He looks as if - as if he knows what I look like without my shimmy]'
Look Who's Talking
Having made eye contact, you must follow up your advantage with a devastating line in chat. One can tease - 'I'd just love to kiss ya but I just washed ma hair,' purrs Bette Davis in the Cabin in the Cotton - or one can please. Check out Chaplin for Charlie's opening gambit with young and tardy Oona O'Neill: 'I was waiting for you.'
Frankly, 'I have crossed oceans of time for you' (with which Gary Oldman lures Winona Ryder in Coppola's Dracula) is a bit over the top. Likewise Larry (Deep Cover) Fishburne's 'I'm a nocturnal animal. I do things at night. Deliver money. Lingerie.' Try Harrison Ford's 'Say I want you' from Blade Runner (to reluctant replicant Sean Young), and you are likely to receive the understandable reply 'Where did you get that terrible haircut?'
Remember, it's not what you say, it's the way that you say it. Repeat after me Daniel Day Lewis's answer to Madeleine Stowe's 'What are you looking at?' in Last of the Mohicans: 'I'm looking at you, Miss.' Then try 'You know how to whistle, don't you?' (Bacall to Bogart, To Have and Have Not).
Whatever, never mimic Robert De Niro's tactics in New York, New York, intriguing Liza Minnelli with learned astronomy, only to wonder 'when it would be possible to view Uranus'. To quote Mae West's matchless brush-off in I'm No Angel: 'I wouldn't lift my veil for that guy.'
Kiss Me, Stupid
Brush and gargle furiously before attempting these advanced techniques.
The Gnasher: Julian Sands dives toward Helena Bonham-Carter and plants one (A Room with a View).
Poetry in Slow Motion: James Stewart dreamily puckers up for perky Grace Kelly (Rear Window).
The Oxygen Tent: Sean Connery's mouth, bearing an uncanny resemblance to five pounds of raw liver, descends on Tippi Hedren (Marnie).
The Needy and the Greedy: Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman make a five-course meal of one another (Notorious).
The Germ-Free: Alan Bates and George de la Pena osculate through a silk handkerchief (Nijinsky). Not recommended for those with colds.
The Big Wet One: Marilyn Monroe examines lover Don Wilson's dental caps in the shadow of Niagara. (The very opposite of a cold shower.)
Mouth-to-Mouth Enervation: that lie-down-and-stop feeling caused by Sleepwalkers and aliens who want your Lifeforce.
Oral sex isn't just talking about it. Different rules apply for girls and boys. Cunnilingus, for instance, invariably takes place indoors. Sharon Stone is safely bedded by Michael Douglas in Basic Instinct, and is thereby semi-domesticated. She may be mad, bad and exhausting to know, but it's within defined physical parameters - on the mattress and on the mat. Ditto the wilful ladies of Dangerous Liaisons ('We're going to start with a Latin expression'), The Hunger (Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon) and Betty Blue, though when Betty (Beatrice Dalle) returns the favour, she drops to her knees in a supermarket. Why?
Because fellatio, through ease of access and force of male fantasy, happens beyond the hearth, usually in cars, although Blow Up offers a telephone booth, Fatal Attraction an elevator (up and down) and Risky Business a train (in and out of tunnels).
Phallic symbolism runs riot. John Travolta spins his wheels and rolls his eyes in Carrie, Steve Martin hits a telegraph pole in Parenthood, while The World According to Garp takes the tendency to a nightmare Freudian conclusion. Here a collision interrupts Mary Beth Hurt's lip service, turning caress into bite.
Close Encounters of the Third Kind: And so to bed . . . or maybe not. Emma Thompson and Tall Guy Jeff Goldblum made it to the bedroom but somehow never to bed. Exotic locales do have their dubious charm. Like the stove (Damage) ; the kitchen table (The Postman Always Rings Twice); the fridge and its contents (9 1/2 Weeks). Or the aeroplane toilet (Rich and Famous); the roof rack (in the forthcoming Madonna movie Body of Evidence). In front of the fireplace is a favourite from Streisand and Redford in The Way We Were on; but for the more adventurous, watch Top Secret, where the hero and heroine go at it dangling from a parachute. Last and least, the Bond series has highlighted Roger Moore rogering in space ('I'm attempting re- entry') and a submarine ('I'm keeping the British end up').
Cineramic sex happens everywhere, even in the kitchen sink. See Fatal Attraction.
Bedknobs and Broomsticks
Once more into the sheets, though it's no longer permissible to be there simply as flesh and blood. Toys are trendy. The perennial favourite is handcuffs, making special guest appearances in The 39 Steps, Tightrope, Body of Evidence (along with candle wax, not seen since Diana Ross stripteased during Mahogany) and Innocent Blood. For the faint-hearted and sensitively skinned, scarfs are a prudent investment (Basic Instinct, Bull Durham).
Look Who's Talking Two
Utterances in the throes of passion. Boys: 'Come and ride the baloney pony]' (Meet the Applegates). 'Take me, break me, make me a man]' (Thelma and Louise). 'I never knew it could be so . . . professional' (The Man With Two Brains). 'Who are you? Who are you?' (Damage). He: 'Darling, your breasts feel strange.' She: 'That's because they're real' (LA Story).
Girls: 'Let me be your sex poodle]' (All of Me). 'You're the best, you're the best' (The Stepford Wives). 'I want to say hello to the bald avenger' (War of the Roses).
Orgasm can turn people into animals. Into wolves, to be precise (The Howling). Or into insects. Meet the Applegates has the Big O transforming one clean-cut teenage bimbo into a giant cockroach. If in doubt, fake it. Sally did when she met Harry and Jane Fonda did in Klute, finding the presence of mind to check her watch and not be late for her next appointment.
There's no fire without smoke. Now Voyager's Bette Davis and Paul Henreid bucked the stereotype by huffing and puffing before bedtime (they swapped cigarettes). The movie convention has couples lighting up after consummation. An unconventional variant on this convention saw Gene Wilder and a sheep earning a government health warning in All You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex (But Were Afraid to Ask).
The Morning After
That terrible moment when you wake up, bleary-eyed and sated, turn, and really see what's all over the other pillow: The Godfather.

What if you took a break from blogging and tweeting?" I scanned the room, looking into faces of friends I'd known over a decade. What started as a simple retreat with seven of my closest friends began to feel more like an intervention. But that's why we were there—to spend a couple days away challenging one another to greater faithfulness and effectiveness.
When the conversation turned to me, everyone was in agreement. They each described my propensity for online arguments, how I focused so tightly on ideas that I often forgot the people connected to them. I nodded and said, "Yeah, I know I do that. I'm sorry. I'm not trying to hurt anybody's feelings."
One friend said, "Glenn, you want to be a pastor. But right now you're so worried about your digital influence that you forget to be present personally and locally."
That was tough to hear, but he was right.
"What can I do to turn this around?"
That's when ...

Flibber Flabber
this wiki
Flibber Flabber is a nasty green dietary food which is suppose to help someone lose weight, but you have to eat a ton of it to actually lose any weight.
Flibber Flabber appeared in the episode The Flibber Flabber Diet, when Truffles put everyone on a diet. Despite the fact that it supposed to help you lose weight, it's never actually seen doing so, while it was also shown to make Chowder fat (although this could be because Chowder eats in very large portions).
Flibber Flabber's also known for being "straight nasty" (according to Mung), which is likely a reason for the weight loss; however, Chowder thinks it's delicious. Flibber Flabber is produced from the mouth of the Flibbius Flabbius plant. Every time Mung Daal attempted to serve Truffles any kind of Flibber Flabber-themed meal, she'd spit it out on his face. Chowder, surprisingly, loved the Flibber Flabber, and was used as trash can to throw away the Flibber Flabber that Truffles didn't eat. This particular type of food seems to be and hugely resembles barf, as it was, and obviously, thrown up by a plant and the color green. Mung tried many ways to make the Flibber-Flabber taste better, but it really is straight nasty, as it still tasted awful:
- Pizza
- Pancakes
- Sandwiches
- Cake
- Bowlful
- Plateful
Flibber Flabber smells of wet grass and sour yogurt, that's why Truffles did not like it. The Flibber Flabber made a cameo appearance in "Chowder's Catering Company".

LBL begins more prescribed burns today
Thursday, March 09, 2017 - Updated: 8:32 AM
The Forest Service anticipates conducting prescribed burns today in the Elk & Bison Prairie, an area near the Administrative Office, and Golden Pond Target Range at Land Between the Lakes. A prescribed burn is also planned for the Neville Creek open lands area on Friday, March 10.
About 450 acres are included in these prescribed burns.
"Prescribed fire is weather dependent," says Todd Lerke, Fire Management Specialist at Land Between the Lakes. "We have to have the right conditions to have a successful burn with the least smoke impact to surrounding communities."
Prescribed burns are being implemented in these areas to reduce accumulation of dry fuels and to recycle nutrients back into the soil.
Land Between the Lakes will notify local media outlets on days when prescribed burns are scheduled. Notices can be found at https://www.landbetweenthelakes.us/alerts-notices/ or by calling 270-924-2000 and pressing one (1) for alerts.
To learn more contact Janice Wilson, Public Information Officer, at 270-924-2171.

The intrudersMature
"It is two days since me and my brother has been locked in this room. The food is good and bountiful however the only connection that we have to the outside is a phone that has gone dead and the window that looks out to the front." Scott wrote in Edwards note book. Scott I am ashamed to be your brother. To deface my books of science with your diary entries." Edward said. "I have to do something to write my last will and testament before i waste away." Scott said.
"Sir your tea." The butler said. "Thank you Butler." Ignacy said grabbing the tea. Then Butler pulled out a letter and handed it to Ignacy. "Hmm?" Ignacy chuckled as he opened the letter.
Dear douch bag.
look out your window.
sincerly The doll maker
Ignacy looked up and ran to the window. "Butler sound the alarm and join me down in the courtyard." Ignacy yelled. The butler dispersed into the shadow. At that moment a horn was heard over the racket. "Hear me spiders that crawl, and gargoyals that growl, ginats that stalk, and devils that laugh. Hear me and rally to my call. Destroy the interlopers until only there bones remain." One could here the butler a mile away.
Ignacy was already in the courtyard standing next to the giant coffin watching the hoard swarm over to the gates. "Ha this should be good." Ignacy said. There was a flash of light rising to the heavens and then a massive beam of golden light shooting down and incinerating all living things that it touched.
"Oh crap. He is here!" Ignacy gasped. "Butler!" Ignacy yelled. "Yes sir?" Butler asked. He was now just a couple of feet away from him now. "Butler i want you to take care of the judge." Ignacy said. Butler bowed and crossed his hand across his chest. "If it is your demand i have no choice." He said. Another beam of light sizzled the gates to nothingness. And in the light Ignacy saw his foes.
Four silhouettes. Clothed in dark rags covering there entire bodies. Figures in the light of carnage walking over the eviserated remains of the gate. Frankenstein walked forward and adressed the man in the black robe with the white wig. who was the only one that was not in the cloths. "You who art the judge i chalenge you to a fight." In that moment both of the peoples dissapered.
"Ok so who will have the pleasure of fighting me first?" Ignacy asked.

Situated near crocodile park.... try rolling transparent zorb park ..ending at the bottom of the slope with your head downward ...a fun screaming ride...just give a try
The park has a large area devoted to it's namesake. There are all sizes of crocodiles for viewing. There are monkeys, peacocks, a variety of parrots, snakes and several other animal groups. This is a good place for the kids and is interesting for the adults who like being outside. It was cloudy the day we went which helped as...
It's whole lot of rolling fun. Never fails to excite us. Best of all, it's inside the Davao Crocodile Park complex where there are other fun and dining activities are found. It's also just 20 minutes away from the city center.
My cousins from Manila enjoyed it very much! They even tried the sport three times! The guides were patient as well telling us how to enjoy the Zorb something! Thumbs up!
Kinda expensive, short time but nice game !!! Just recommended for people with good healthy. This game use 2 persons inside the ball and we will be tied. then the ball will sliding from up to down place. maybe 1-5 minutes
First time for the kids to do this. It is inexpensive and great fun. My kids are 10 and 12. They loved it and loved going on the water balls. Take the children here, they will love it. So will the adults for that matter!
You can or spend some time in a flooting zorb, quite fun actualy and demands some skill, or you can "zorb"down a hill. Both will keep you occupied less then 1/2h , so better combine with , for example, crocodile park
Unfortunately, it was only when we got there that we found out. It was news to the cab driver too. There was a sign on the site that said "A mall to be built here soon!" or something or the other (*groan*, no thanks!). Sms'd the number on the Zorb Fb site and they replied saying that yes, they're closed...
This is by far one of the best adventures I have experienced. My first time here is really great, comparing to my first zipline experience. It wouldnt take that long, less than a minute. You should never miss this for sure! Fee is 200 each, minimum of 2 each ride. Bring along your loved one, bestfriend or anyone and zorb...
SHOUT! Otherwise, you will die of heart attack. It's an experience you should experience at least once in your life. Just be ready to shout all you can.

Important delivery notice
The products on this site are only delivered to UK addresses. If you require delivery to another country please visit one of our other sites below.
Oriental lilies prefer a moist, free draining, neutral to acid soil that is rich in organic matter. Prior to planting, add plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost to the soil to give your lilies the best start. When growing lilies in containers, use a loam based compost such as John Innes No.2. Lily bulbs should be planted at a depth of approximately 3 times their own height and 15cm (6") apart. Planting deeply helps to protect the bulb during particularly hot periods. Choose a sheltered, sunny position where lilies will grow with their heads in the sun and their roots in the shade.
Feed and water Asiatic lily bulbs regularly throughout the growing season, keeping them moist at all times. Deadhead faded blooms at the base of the flower where they join the stem to prevent the development of seed pods. When cutting Asiatic lily flowers for indoor arrangements, it is important to leave a third of the stem intact in order to feed the bulb for the following year.
After flowering leave the stems intact until they begin to yellow in autumn. Reduce watering and move containers of lilies to a cool, frost free position over winter. Lilies grown in borders can be lifted, cleaned and stored for the winter, however in mild areas most lilies should survive outdoors provided that the soil is not too wet. A mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost should be applied in spring. Divide and repot container grown lilies into fresh compost every other year.
Seeds and garden supplies will normally be delivered within the time period stated against each product as detailed above. Plants, bulbs, corms, tubers, shrubs, trees, potatoes etc are delivered at the appropriate time for planting and will be stated on the product page or in your order acknowledgement page and email.
Orders for packets of seed incur a P&P charge of £1.95.
Orders which include any other products will incur a P&P charge of £4.95.
Where an order includes both packets of seeds and other products a maximum P&P charge of £6.90 will apply - regardless of the number of items ordered.
Please see our Delivery / P&P page for further details and details of any surcharges that may apply to certain destinations.
By SHAHIN CHOWDHURY 20-07-2016
planted and waited, nothing really disappointed. I cancelled an order with QVC and ordered direct but am really disappointed with this and the trumpet tree lily which only grew a few inches. I ordered tree lilies a few years ago and they have been coming up strongly every year. But this year the 2 sets of lilies ordered have been a waste of money.
Thank you for your review. I am very sorry to learn of your disappointment with your Lillies. At your earliest convenience please contact our Customer Care Department at firstname.lastname@example.com, one of our agents will be more than happy to look into this further for you.

On being Abandoned
My boyfriend has done worse than play with my head.
I took the letter off of the nightstand on my side of the bed. No thing compares to the child of confusion and terror. But this was six months after college. I thought I was a grown up now.
We had been going out since sophomore year. He was so slick and witty then. Always knew the right thing to say. We moved into the same apartment the next year. Graduated and then toured France. I thought he was the one. Just last week we started to talk about making plans. I wondered where we would go together. Was I too clingy? Was I crowding him? Could I Have done something wrong?
All of his clothes were gone. His DVD's, his textbooks, the dolphin pillow I had gotten him for his birthday… and him. My lover and boyfriend for the past two years was suddenly missing and all that was left to replace that part of my life was this hallmark envelope. I peeled the opening back. Fumbled. Ripped the paper envelope covering in half.
A hallmark Saint Patrick's day greetings card. Blank. Untouched it looked as if it had just been taken off the shelf and placed here next to my bed. I turned it over, turned it back. Looked in the envelope. Look back at the card, checked the back, then back to trying to find the writing from my missing boyfriend that wasn't there.
A stereotypical ginger leprechaun with a four-leaf clover while in bright green all caps, "Happy Saint Patrick's Day" confronted me. Blocking me from understanding a plain message that I wasn't processing.
I looked around the room as if to ask, "Wait, what?," but he wasn't there to laugh and give me the answer to this riddle. Nothing of his was here… except this. He had taken all the pictures of the two of us but this one. It sat on the book shelf facing out to the room for everyone to see. To show the two of us, even though there is only one in this apartment now. It was the two of us laughing on a grassy slope on the campus. I had been walking to class with a couple of my friends when he rushed up behind me and swooped me off my feet. We tumbled in the grass and my friend Jill had taken a picture of us in all of play. Did he forget this here? Is this a clue? What does this mean?

So is this bye-bye, Poussin?
The culture secretary Ed Vaizey has put an export ban on a picture by the great 17th-century French artist Nicolas Poussin. He says that a private collector with £14m to spare needs to step forward and save it for the nation.
It sounds as unlikely as the nation suddenly deciding the 'big society' (remember that?) is a great idea after all. No one stepped up to buy Picasso's Child with a Dove for Britain. I'll be surprised if this story has a happy ending – if it is left to market forces.
Works of art only get saved for the nation, these days, if a museum decides to campaign for them. This is now a well-established and effective strategy. Museums have resources including publicity departments, communities of visitors, and curators who can act as spokespeople. When this organisation is combined with the energy of the Art Fund, the results are often excellent. From the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford to the National Gallery, museums have been able to buy paintings they wanted and the nation needed.
For the government to call for a rich art lover to magically step in and buy a painting out of patriotism is a meaningless gesture. The age of heroic collectors like Sir Dennis Mahon is over. The upper class is hip to contemporary art, it doesn't want to fork out for French classicism.
Only museums can safeguard our heritage. So come on. A great museum needs to step up and save this painting for the nation.
The Infant Moses trampling Pharaoh's Crown (c1645-6) is a masterpiece of storytelling. It portrays a moment when the baby Moses, rescued from a basket on the riverbank, playfully trampled Pharaoh's headgear in a way that foreshadowed his later humiliation of Egypt when he led the Israelites to freedom.
But it's the way Poussin tells them. The energy of the boy Moses is a flare of electrical tension in a painting that stresses the gravitas of the Egyptian court: seated figures react sombrely as he sports. The scene is further weighted down by monumental architecture.
Poussin is the opposite of Caravaggio, who painted moments of agonising drama. In a Caravaggio painting, everything is compressed in a terrible visible fact. Poussin, by contrast, suggests the immense chains of events that precede and succeed his scenes. His paintings are not frozen moments but intimations of history.
In the weight and sobriety of this painting we absorb the deeper meaning of an apparently childish act. It foretells the serious stuff to come when Moses grows into a man.
This is a great work of art, that came to Britain at the end of the 18th century and belongs not just in this country but in one of our public collections. It's time for a museum to gear up its publicity machine, call the Art Fund, and launch a campaign.

This style is usually reserved for old generations, but at the postfolklore festival I also saw a group of teenage girls performing a 'shouting song'. Imagine: a group of 8 timid 14-year-olds, filling a huge auditorium - no microphones, just their booming voices!
The flowers
Of course, any performance ends with some ...

The second place we looked at actually had three bedrooms! All three of them were full of tools and paint buckets, as if somebody was busy doing up the place. In reality, the paint on the walls was chipping, the windows were drafty and ...

Welcome to the Big, New World
The three walked out the door of Number Seventeen Cherry Tree Lane, scarves and coats wrapped tightly to help keep out the chilly October air. Although it was certainly a very pleasant and beautiful day for the middle of October in London, that didn't change the fact that the wind was a bit nippy.
"Now then, children, where is the park?" Mary Poppins asked crisply.
Ben and Lily stared at her with blank expressions.
"Come on, now, speak up! Don't just stand there like a couple of stone statues!"
Ben just shrugged and sat down on the curb, and Lily sighed and answered, "There isn't any park around here... The closest one is a couple miles away."
Mary Poppins stood silently, hiding her shock from the children. "But where do the children go to play and fly their kites? How can there be no park?"
Lily shrugged, and tugged on her small, pink purse anxiously. "Mom says there was one once, across the street, but they built more houses on it."
Mary looked across the street, and it was just as the little girl had said. Neat-looking houses stood in row after row, all identical copies of each other.
Mary humph-ed in a lady-like manner and retorted, "Well, then we'll just have to take a walk around the houses."
Ben and Lily had just started to protest when a garbage truck quickly drove by, nearly running poor Mary Poppins over.
Both of the children gasped and ran over to her, but she brushed them off and marched after the truck to the corner, where it had stopped on a red light. Her brisk, irritated stroll brought her quickly to the man hanging off the back, ready to unload the bins into the truck.
"Now just who do you think you are, nearly running over those children! You should be ashamed of yourself! Such high speeds!" Mary's pale face was flushed with anger.
Then the man turned around. At first his face was the picture of shock, but then he began smiling eagerly. "Meery Popp'ns?! Is that you?!"
Now it was Mary's turn to be confused. "Bert? What are you doing here?"

Doris Foley Library in jeopardy
May 2, 2009
If sales tax revenue doesn't turn around by June, researchers looking for unique Gold Rush history will no longer step into the Doris Foley Library to lose themselves among dusty volumes of assessor's records, yellowed newspapers and county maps.
A drop in local consumer spending means the research library built shortly after the turn of the century could close July 1 along with the Bear River Station Library, a satellite branch in South County used by high school students and Lake of the Pines residents, said county librarian Mary Ann Trygg.
"It definitely is in danger of closing if sales tax doesn't come in and it's proving not to," Trygg said. "We'd need close to $140,000 for both to stay open."
Doris Foley carries materials that can be found nowhere else and is said to rival collections housed at the state library, Trygg said. Doris Foley is a Carnegie Library and one of 36 in the state that is still operating as a library.
Of the 142 originally constructed, only 85 Carnegie Libraries are still standing, according to http://www.carnegie-libraries.org.
Closing the branches is a drastic proposal Trygg put before county supervisors at recent budget subcommittee hearings.
The move will save the county $138,000 and prevent cuts to the bigger library branches where visitors are using free services more than ever because of the recession. Supervisors will host a hearing June 2 to make final decisions on the entire county budget.
Over 70 percent of the county library's budget depends on sales tax, Trygg said.
This year, sales tax revenue is down 8 percent from the same time last year, when sales tax first began to show signs of a downward slide.
Even with the closures, the library would have to tap into $80,000 from its fund balance next year to stay afloat, Trygg said.
Late last year, 15 temporary staff positions were cut and hours were reduced by 23 percent at the three major branches: Grass Valley Library Royce Branch, the Madelyn Helling Library and the Truckee Library.
Heavier usage at the Penn Valley library branch will keep it open for now. For south county residents who live 20 minutes away from the nearest library, the Bear River Station is a resource that will be sorely missed. Some come to use the library's computers, order books through the county library system or check out music CDs and DVDs.
"It is going to be a huge loss for the kids and the residents of Lake of the Pines," said Bear River High School librarian Amy Linden.
"I think our library community is going to be saddened. We just need a benefactor to come along and help us," Trygg said.

I love a good community building activity. In fact, I may have more books on feelings, emotions & appreciating uniqueness than I do on any other subject! Maybe it's because I know first-hand the effects bullying can have on a kid {or teenager} or maybe it's because part of my passion in working with little ones is that I honestly believe I can help transform them into good, loving people. I really do believe it's a super power only people who are called to teach possess!
A teacher I used to work with & very much look up to as an educator and all-around great person introduced me to the book A Rainbow of Friends by P.K. Hallinan. From there, this activity was born.

Alexis was unaware of the time when sleep had claimed him. Perhaps it had been the moment he had relaxed into this fairy-tale, perhaps it had been later; but he was very much aware of the coolness of the sheets, and the emptiness beneath his hand. He opened his eyes slowly, much like a child who is afraid of a sound in the dark.
Unlike the child, his initial thought was true:
She was gone.
He caught his breath, yearning for her like he should not yet have learned to. Was she gone for good? Had that tiny blue butterfly flown from his grasp...and taken the princess with it? Perhaps this wasn't meant to be his fairy-tale after all. He sat up, wiping at his eyes as though he could chase away the scene before him, but the emptiness remained. A heart-felt sigh, and he was standing. Jeans, shirt, shoes; a hurried glance in the mirror at the pallor that had become him; the bluish circles beneath his eyes...He was gone.
But the room wouldn't miss him.

Limited Liability Partnership
Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) are one of the highly preferred categories of business entity in almost all economic sectors of the countries worldwide. LLPs were introduced in India through the Limited Liability Partnerships Act, 2008. The main advantage of LLP is ease of maintenance while at the same time providing limited liability to the owners. Like Private/Public Limited Companies, this form of business constitution also provides an advantage of limited liability but at the same time the control of a Partnership firm is hindered to some extent. Therefore, LLPs are considered as unique form of entities which integrate the features of both limited companies and traditional partnership firms. Due to their hybrid structure, LLPs are suitable for small to medium-sized business or professional enterprises. The only disadvantage of LLP is in rising of capital or attracting and retaining talent by way of issuing Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs).
Procedure of Incorporating a Limited Liability Partnership
This process takes approximately 15 working days to get the entity incorporated
➥ DSC & DIN :-Before applying for name, every proposed Partner should have a Digital Signature & Partner's Identification Number.
➥ Name Approval :-After obtaining DSC and DPIN it is required to apply for a name by which the LLP needs to be incorporated.
➥ Registration of EntityPost name availability, other documents relating to registered office address, detailed object clause, capital and subscriber details needs to be submitted with the Dept. after necessary attestations
Documents required for Incorporating a Limited Liability Partnership
— Documents required to Incorporate / Form LLP
1. Copy of PAN ( Permanent Account Number) of all Partners (Minimum 2)
2. Copy of Address Proof ( Voter Id, Passport, Driving License, Aadhar Card) of all partners
3. Latest passport size Photographs of all partners
4. Registered Office Address Proof – Electricity Bill along with Rent Agreement / ownership proof of proposed registered office.
5. Copy of Mobile bill, telephone bill, electricity bill or Bank Statement of all directors / promoters with Present address (could be different from permanent address).

Originally posted on The Penalty Flag | Last updated 12/6/12
Rex Ryan's benching of Mark Sanchez in favor of third string quarterback Greg McElroy was a long time coming. But for 13 weeks, it seemed as though Rex's continued support of Sanchez would never falter. This support, whether it developed out of loyalty or pride, had been quite costly to the New York Jets' season. After three interceptions and three and a half quarters of complete incompetence, Rex was finally not willing to wait for the last shoe to drop and he quelled that supportive. His decision saved the Jets from losing to an inferior team and put him miles closer to still being the head coach next season. Although starting McElroy seems like the next logical decision, it is not the decision made by Rex Ryan.… Read more

Aussie Additives Newcomer has Alternative to Hardcoating for Mar/Scruff Resistance of Polar Plastics
Starting with acrylic automotive parts, TenasiTech is focussing its novel plastic additives activity to North America, Europe, Asia.
Australian plastic additives startup TenasiTech Pty. Ltd. (U.S. office in Boston, Mass.) has been further expanding and globally marketing its patented nanoadditives first developed six years ago at Queensland University. Solid-TT is a family of surface-treated nanoclays that have been shown to provide enhanced mar/scruff resistance of acrylic polymers and have significant potential for use in several other polar polymers ranging from PET to TPUs, and is positioned as an alternative to hardcoating in a broad range of applications.
CEO Richard Marshall says the company has been manufacturing the proprietary additives via toll compounding in the U.S. within the last three years, and while it maintains its Australian R&D activities and official headquarters, its thrust of activities are in North America, Europe, and Asia. "The intellectual property of the patents covers a wide range of morphology in terms of the size of the particles and treatments we put on them." Solid-TT comes in easy to handle powder form, similar to the consistency of talcs.
TenasiTech's initial focus has been on acrylic in applications such as injection molded automotive door pillars and extruded sheet for building interior decoration, for which trials at OEMs are underway. The company has also started internal testing of the nanoadditives with nylon 12 and other nylons, as well as TPUs. Marshall indicates that they are ready to move into PC and PET for applications ranging from automotive, consumer electronics and industrial electronics such as touch screens and control panels.
"We are an alternative for mar and scruff resistance for customers who want to avoid the significant investment required for expensive hardcoating processes. Our additive is not designed to replace hardcoating where that investment has already been made such as automotive front headlamps." However, Marshall says there is a whole market of products where such high levels of performance and handling is overkill. The Solid-TT additives are tailored with surface modifications that enhance the dispersion of the additives within high-polarity plastics. Compared to hardcoating, they are less costly, provide more consistent results and, as such, a much lower reject rate, according to Marshall.

Hometown: New Jersey.
The lineup: Cosmo Jarvis (vocals, guitar).
The background: He's not a cosmic Jarvis, you should know that for starters – you know, a space-rock Cocker, all bloops and bleeps soundtracking acerbic references to common people and Es and whizz. He's an 18-year-old singer-songwriter from Ridgewood, New Jersey, who grew up in Totnes, Devon, and he sings his quirky self-penned songs about getting Jessica Alba's phone number and eating his soul mainly accompanied by himself on his battered, trusty acoustic guitar. All of which make the comparisons he's been receiving of late to everyone from Jilted John and Mike Skinner to Kurt Cobain, Prince and Eminem rather curious, even ridiculous. Mind you, on his track Sort Yourself Out he sings in a maudlin, self-consciously I'm-a-loser-me way about sitting in his bedroom surrounded by cups of piss while his mum has a nervous breakdown. OK, then, maybe Mike Skinner. The acoustic, raggedy troubadour Mike Skinner.
Apparently, he's also an actor and filmmaker who has directed over 60 videos and short movies. Well done him. We won't allow such details to detain us here. He sounds like Billy Bragg's kid brother to us. Head On the Wrong Way Round is dead catchy but let's not start getting ahead of ourselves. A Renaissance boy he is not. Besides, this is New Band Of The Day, not Machiavellian Dilettante Of The Day. He's a prolific singer-songwriter who has composed over 200 tunes and prepared twice as many demos. That will do for here, for now.
But are those songs any good? Well, musically they are conventional in the extreme, instrumentally and melodically. Lyrically, they are amusing or adroit enough. On Clean My Room he claims, "I'm gonna burn my room and kill my girlfriend" (ah, that'll explain the Eminem thing). Problems of Our Own is about his parents splitting up. Lonely Stroll is a lament for peace that is so banal it makes us weep ("Don't waste your love on hating/Don't hold your love in fists/Don't ever think that anything/Is something that a lonely stroll can't fix"). His funny ones are better. Jessica Alba's Number, for instance, contains the lines, "If I went to Jessica Simpson, she'd think I was an ignoramus/And if I tried to talk to Cameron Diaz she'd say, 'Get lost, boy, I'm famous'". Later in the same song, he sings, "All the women round here have BO or they have rolls/Some lucky bloke right now is probably hugging Beyoncé Knowles". He loves the contemporary pop-culture reference, does Jarv – try this: "When fit girls get shot in films I'm always in tears/I'd like to go see Toy Story 2 with just me and Britney Spears/And she'd say, 'Hit me, baby, one more time'/And I'd say, 'No way, Britney, domestic violence is a crime.'" Actually, that's brilliant.
The buzz: "His laidback acoustic, semi-narrative songs can, at times, come across a little try-hard but otherwise his music is inoffensive."
The truth: If he wants to be a performer on the comedy-folk circuit, great. But he doesn't have the musical nous or invention to be a pop star.
Most likely to: Make audiences laugh.
Least likely to: Make record companies laugh.
What to buy: Cosmo Jarvis's songs are now available to download through cosmojarvis.com, MySpace and iTunes. He plays tonight at London's Hammersmith Regal Rooms.
File next to: Patrick Fitzgerald, Billy Bragg, Richard Stilgoe, Half Man Half Biscuit.
Links: www.myspace.com/cosmojarvis
Tomorrow's new band: Flashguns.

I understand why is too risk for Cocoon to choose one of them - social implications at most - and I agree.

The Detroit Lions, based out of Detroit, Michigan, are a member of the NFL's NFC North. Formed in 1929, the Portsmouth Spartans, as they were once known, were an independent football team until switching to the NFL a year later. After a move to Detroit in 1934, the team picked up their current name, the Detroit Lions, and have called Ford Field home since 2002.
In their 85 year existence, the Lions have won four NFL Championships, the last of which was in 1957. Despite their once hyper-successful record, the Lions have faced a severe drought in the past few decades when it comes to bringing home titles. Despite their lack of victories in the championship, the Lions have produced many Hall of Fame players such as Dutch Clark, Dick LeBeau, and Barry Sanders. They've also retired six numbers from use, also including Barry Sanders, Doak Walker, and Chuck Hughs.
Our collection of Detroit Lions memorabilia offers fans an assortment of autographed footballs, jerseys, helmets, photos, and more signed by the great football players that wore their famous blue and silver during the past and present. All signed items within our selection of Detroit Lions collectibles are 100% authentic and backed by our SportsMemorabilia.com lifetime authenticity guarantee.

From creating the first vibrator and baboon police to crazy oral hygiene recipes, ancient Egyptians were not bounded by limits when inventing life hacks.
Ancient Egyptians are known to be very bright and inventive people. We invented mathematics, astronomy, the calendar, built the pyramids (without slaves), and even introduced make up in the form of kohl. But among our renowned inventions, there were many other inventions and ideas that were a bit odd and strange. Or perhaps we made them strange with the passing time because Egyptians are indecisive like that. But since Egypt is Om El Donya, we put together is a list of 10 insane facts about our predecessors who, arguably, shaped modern day civilisation.
Ancient Egyptians were definitely not shy when it came to sexual pleasure. In fact, many academics have agreed that Cleopatra filled a box with angry bees and then placed it against her genitals for pleasure. The buzzing of angry bees inside the box created a vibrator-like sensation that she used for masturbation. Even though Cleopatra was ethnically Greek, her invention was obviously inspired by her rule of Egypt (Don't try this at home).
2. Baboons were trained to capture criminals
It's no surprise that ancient Egyptians worshiped animals and kept many of them as pets. But apparently baboons were really good at catching criminals. They were also trained to participate in picking fruit, making beer, and dancing. They were so precious that some mummies were later found with tattoos of baboons on their bodies! Maybe they came up with teezak hamra, too!
3. Tutankhamen was born of incest
Yep. Recent discoveries were able to connect the DNA traces of Tutankhamun's mummified parents, which proved that they shared a lot more than just a marriage – they were brother and sister! Apparently ancient Egyptians also married their nieces – eek. While not all pharaohs were involved in incest marriages, it was a common practice among many ancient dynasties to keep the bloodline as pure as possible. So it's not so weird when mama tries to convince you to marry cousin Fatima, do as the pharaohs did!
4. Ancient Egyptians brewed beer long before anyone else
What do you do when the Nile water is full of nasties and pollutants that can kill you? And even after you boil it, it's still not safe to drink? Well, you are growing wheat aren't you? Put that grain through a fermentation process – using the sun and heat, obviously - add spices, herbs, and other fun stuff, so that when you drink it you get warm and happy.
Civilization was founded on agriculture, particularly wheat. If you have a nation of workers, what better payment than bread and beer; it comes from the same thing!
And if you got too drunk, you could just wrap some Alexandrian Laurel – a remedial plant - around your neck, which would instantly cure your hangover. Gosh, our ancestors were geniuses. You don't have anymore excuses for being hung-over at work.
5. Ancient Egyptian women peed on barley to test for pregnancy
The first record of home pregnancy tests existed in the ancient era of Egypt (is there anything we didn't invent?). Women would pee on barley and wheat seeds for a few days, and if the seeds sprouted, she was declared pregnant. Ancient Egyptians even determined the gender using the same method. If the barley seeds sprouted, the baby was a girl, and if the wheat seeds sprouted, it was a boy (Do not try this at home either)!
Egyptians and Greeks would also insert a onion into their vagina to determine if they are pregnant, if their breath smelt of onions the next day, there must not have been a baby in their bellies (maybe best you don't try anything in this article).
6. Crocodiles were sacrificed and mummified as an offering to the Gods
As if training vicious cats weren't enough; our ancestors captured crocodiles, killed them and mummified them as a sacrifice to the Gods. As strong believers in life after death, offering these sacrifices was the ultimate way to worship Sobek – an Egyptian deity associated with the Nile crocodile - after his death. We're not sure how we feel about this.
7. Ox hooves, ashes, burnt eggshells and pumice were used for oral hygiene
Ancient Egyptians used a combination of powders derived from ox hooves, ashes, burnt eggshells and pumice on their teeth and gums – to protect the teeth from hygiene issues. Delicious. Thank the lord for proper toothpaste; good morning kisses wouldn't exist otherwise.
8. Forensic fingerprint powder originated in Egypt
You know the dust powder they use on CSI to identify the culprit through their fingerprints? That's Egyptian Blue; the world's oldest synthetic pigment produced by yours truly – ancient Egyptians, not us.
9. Ancient Egyptians shaved off their eyebrows when their cat died
When the family cat died, every member of the household would shave off their eyebrows to mourn its death. We bet no one would shave off their eyebrows for you. Cats were so beloved, if a building was burning, people would save the cats before they put out the fire.
You see that cute kitty that sleeps at your doorstep every night? It's actually planning to mince you and take over your land!
It's no secret that ancient Egyptians were obsessed with cats, and even worshiped them, dishing out the death penalty to anyone who murdered one. They also trained them to be vicious exterminators of pests that infiltrated food storage; allowing an agricultural society to dominate the Mediterranean. Cats were so precious that when the Persians showed up using cats as shields, we retreated in fear of killing a cat. So the Persians slaughtered many soldiers, the pharaoh, and took over the rule of Egypt. We always knew kitties we're the roots of all evil.. or maybe it was the Persians. True story!

Hounds: Rise of the Anut Construct
Octobre 28th, 2009
Max was lounging in the lobby of the Academy Dorm they were in. It was kind of nice. The Psionic Disease did not seem to be affecting this place as bad as he would have thought. Initiate applicants did not seem to be nearly as affected by it--not as much as some of the more senior people here.
It seems the Psionic Disease seemed to attack the stronger people here. Something that was odd in any sort of infection. Max would have thought an infection would only attack the weaker. It seems that after a certain level--Psionic Level 36 it seemed, there was a form of initiation ceremony. Part of which seemed to include taking habitual drugs. Nothing that seemed to alarm Max too much. Max had seen people take various harmless drugs taken for this sort of thing--including an odd strain of Oddish/Gloom/Vileplume/Bellossum that was specifically bred for its potency.
Max was reading through the literature--just curious, he found that the habitual drug was a drug often used to put people under for surgery. Though, the form they set it up here was not the typical surgical use. Max just put it into his mind that perhaps this was another case of people finding a medical use for a ritual drug.
Max noted something that was odd however. Max generally regarded most Psychics as not having a requirement for a specific pokemon. However all of these generally said that every student needed to have a Drowzee--specifically to learn and think close to it. It gave the reason the over the last fifty years--ever since the major war that ended in 1944, there has been notes of people's mental states being really close to Drowzees and Hypnos in mental waves. Making notes of how it seemed to be getting stronger and closer and the Academy worked on teaching its goals.
Max started to let his mind wander--why Drowzee/Hypno? And why only since 1944 has this been noted? Perhaps it could be due to Team Social Rights' large amount of psionic research they did? Most of which was rather Macabre and rudimentary. Though, most of today's advertisement techniques were gained from Team Social Rights' propaganda works. Maybe in amongst all the wrong Team Social Rights did, there was more good discovered?
Certainly something like Roy's Slowpoke/Slowking/Slowbro would work instead of Drowzee/Hypno. I mean, why would it not? Max had noted how well Roy had bonded to the thing. It did not really seem like Roy would work well with a Drowzee/Hypno. Max started to think--even then... he did not even think he saw Hari with a Drowzee or a Hypno ever. There have been many cases where we could have used Hari's Drowzee or Hypno. Max would need to ask Hari about this.
Polaris walked into the Lounge, and collapsed in his chair. Max looked over at Polaris and chided, "I told you, do not ask the elevators about Zaphod Beeblebrox. You had to anyways--now look at how the stuff in here is treating you."
Polaris sighed in an exasperated manner, "yeah--I tried apologising. They told me that they knew I was sorry--but they have to be harsh on people who make silly scifi references involving psionic household devices. Nothing against me--though now just to rub it in, they like to sigh and say, 'glad to be of service' when I enter and leave a room. And _only_ when _I_ do it. I am marked here--all the students here know what is going on. They point at me and laugh when I enter a room, and a door thanks me for using it."
"Though, what I noted was that they did not do this right away. I mean, for equipment that is designed to know what you want before you know you want it, it should have known you are doing that ahead of time."
"I asked about that. There is a regulation that even if they know you will be guilty of some activity, they do not actually punish you until you do it. Noting it as Temporal Directive Six."
"Oh right--I have been reading about the Temporal Directives. I am pretty certain Daebi has made it a note to break each and everyone of them. Just seems like a hobby she would enjoy."
The Tv flashes on to a report on Gabby Newsroom, to which Max replies, "Arceus! I find that creepy--I always have. Let us see, what does this Tv think I am going to need to see."
"You mean want? Right?"
"Naw--it seems Temporal Directive Eight states that use of psionic abilities to induce sloth is not allowed. Hence this Tv only comes on when I neeed to watch something."
Gabby Newssom starts up her report, "Breaking news! Krystal Spectrum is alive and well! We take you now to the wreckage."
The psionic Tv was a rather high quality Tv. Max had never seen anything here like it. The Tv was thin, and showed no sign of use of a Cathoid Ray tube. Even without one it seemed to show a rather high definition picture of the events--almost like Max was there.
The scene shows an rescue crew on this Rocket Logistics Research Headquarters. They are pulling away rocks, "as you are aware, sometime yesterday evening the Psionic Blackhole that Team Temporal placed into this spot started to wander. It is somewhere near Getan right now. Rocket Logistics says they are not concerned about it right now, and are merely tracking the occurrance. Spokesperson P told us that while the Psionic Blackhole concerns Rocket Logistics, once it moved, they started to run forensics on the headquarters to find out what head of science at Team Temporal, Krystal Spectrum, did there.
"At about six AM this morning they discovered the hand of a very injured Krystal Spectrum poking out from the rocks. A Rocket EMT appeared. Consisting of the usual configuration, Two Rocket Grunts, a Rocket Attendant and a Rocket Attendant Assistant, in their body armour appeared to deal with the potentially dangerous Miss Spectrum. Spectrum, who seemed a little fatigued behaved decently, and made the following statement."
As Gabby talks about this, they show the footage of a young woman, with fiery Red Hair and a large amount of freckles be excavated from the sight, as the sun rises in the east. Max and Polaris take in how surreal this whole matter is. The woman they were excavating was wearing a Rocket Admin uniform. It was in perfect order. No rips, no tears. It had a rather OCD effect to it Max noted.
The women, who they were claiming to be Daemon, was shown at a Rocket Logistics Press Conference. She was wearing a Rocket Admin Uniform--which was oddly in very good condition. Especially when Max and Polaris had not seen Daemon able to keep a pair of clothes for more than two cities without the clothes being completely destroyed. She took the stand, "I would like to apologize for my poor actions and activities I did regarding my work with Team Temporal. I was not in my best point. They took me in, and suckered me into thinking their intentions for the time line were correct. I came to my senses with the Therapy of Rocket Logistics. I intend to work on tracking down these criminals and will make certain they serve their time. Their complete debauchery on rights and free will of the people cannot be stand for. I apologize for my actions in their part. I claimed to be Daemon before. On the dawn of the day I was rescued from their detonation of my therapeutic rehabilitation centre, I decided to turn over a new leaf. Please, to my brother Stoenn, please, call me Daetwo."
The Tv turns off and Hari enters the room. He was looking at his cards--mostly cards regarding messengers of tricksters and cunning opponents kept appearing in his deck.
Max answered, "I do not buy it. She seemed odd--not like Daemon."
Polaris notes, "the main issues is--I do not believe that the filming they did there was specifically for forensic purposes. There was far too many cinematographic elements to it. They filmed it using manners that would normally be reserved for a god like element appearing in the film. I mean, they even had a halo around Dae--Daetwo. Also the hair and skin was off. Even when Daemon was in the desert, her skin did not freckle that much. It burnt before that point. Daetwo's hair is different--the shade of her Red Hair is more sun dyed than Daemon. Not really a strawberry blonde mind you, but the roots on Daemon are a lot darker."
"That may be because of the Camera equipment."
Hari puts his cards down--he had set up a Grass Temporal Spread. Hari had no idea where he gained the knowledge for this spread, but he had been doing it since their activities in the Tv Station. Since he had started his way here, he had been doing it more often. This pattern, while it showed a more chaotic spread of events, it generally somehow was more accurate, and presented various paths for the future to take--and some clues as to how to get there. Hari had been doing it like he knew it all his life, when he knew he did not. Since their departure from Pentag Path he found himself compelled to do it more. It was rather addicting. He had to look up the spread in the Richtog Library. It seems to have originated in Agate City in the Orre region. He was having issues putting the clues together though.
Hari answers, "t-t-that is n-n-not Spectrum..." Hari corrects himself for a moment and tries to straighten out his thoughts, "Daemon, I mean. S-s-sorry for that e-e-error. D-D-Daetwo seems to be represented by the Major Arcana denoting The Lunatone in conjunction to the High Priestess. I kept reading D-D-Daemon as a mixture involving Solrock and the Empress. The readings I get for D-D-Daemon are now applying to the Psionic Blackhole and this S-S-Spectrum Figure. A-A-Any Psionic Readings of D-D-Daemon end up being different--l-l-like something more."
Max looks over at Hari, and Hari replies, "Fool mixed with Emperor for you Max. Some paths mix in the Hanged Man for you--though only a few of them. Those normally do not have the Emperor mixed in though."
Max notes this, then considers, "what more? What is different about Daetwo."
Hari answers, "her psionic abilities. They are not the same."
Samuel walks into P's office. "How the hell did you have that clone hyper aged so fast? We have not had the required amount of DNA for Miss Spectrum long enough to have a clone of that quality and that age."
P, who was filling out a Sudoku--his fourth and final one for the day puts his pencil down. It was a .5mm lead mechanical drafting pen. He used blue lead for this--allowing him to photocopy the puzzles for later usages. Even though he had backups of them elsewhere--no need to waste something not needed to be wasted. P answers, "Rocket HQ in Terrut City."
Samuel looks a little confused. P continues, "the fight between Ho-oh and Zapdos was not an accident. I am too good for accidents. It allowed me to get the required DNA on all of Team Temporal. As we were researching the Daemon Gamete we found it was useful for Aspect research and a cloning project was started then. We then kidnapped the Daemon Gamete to get a more complete DNA sample."
Samuel looked more than a little disgusted, "you mean--you never intended to keep Miss. Spectrum alive? Also, I would prefer that you would use her correct name."
"Her life was irrelevant, you should know that, Maulek."
"I still find it creepy that you prefer to refer to people by names like, 'Gaebrille', 'Sainte', 'Daemon', 'Paak' and the like. I do not enjoy being called Maulek at all."
"Regardless--you aware of the Team Social Rights' psionic surgeries?"
"Yes--I really do not enjoy hearing about it though."
"Well, thanks to that research, humans are becoming more and more compatible with Pokemon DNA and RNA. For a while, the only gland that could be implanted was Hypno. Which was why we found issues with the Hypno scan on the Daemon Gamete. We found that putting a Celebi gland into the Anat Construct."
"Please--we are to call her Krystal Spectrum... or at least Daetwo. This strikes me as excessively disturbing."
P shakes his head, "sorry, I apologize. One of the issues with Daemon's Notebook is it refers to everyday people with glyphs associated with these people. For example--the texts on Bill use a Glyph associate with Moikane--a male variation of Omoikane. It gets more than a little infectious after a while. Once you note a glyph is associated with a person, you start to think of that person as that glyph. The glyphs often are mythological figures. It is not exclusive to one mythology either. As we have Moikane, Maulek, Gaebrille and Puuk appearing regularly. They are not the figures themselves--just figures that best represent who the person is in the events of things. The original Krystal Spectrum's, noted as the Daemon Gamete in the text, insanity becomes a little more understandable."
Samuel shakes his head, "I do not like having a glyph associated with making mothers cry as I take away their children, and put them through some sort of test required for some arbitrary reason. I cannot see myself as that--so I do not believe it is me."
"You may be correct. We are still decrypting the Daemon's Notebook. We may have misapplied that Glyph to you."
"Changing the subject to something only slightly less creepy and disturbing--you said that Miss Spectrum was not compatible with Hypno implants--but somehow Celebi?"
"Again, as we refine the horrible experiments of the Second Massive War, to something more elegant, we are finding that people are getting more and more compatible with various Psychic Pokemon. They are generally moving away from Hypno and Drowzee compatibility. The Anut Con--I mean Krystal Spectrum was rather compatible with a Celebi Gland. The stuff we have been working with Roymin found a compatibility with Slowpoke/Slowbro/Slowking. Though, we have no desire to augment it at this point."
"This is getting more scary."
"Do not worry--we are looking into ways to regulate and control this."

Description of this paper
Rar!###s#########Zt V#d###d####z[jy#A#06#-(Answered)
Step-by-step Instant Solution
Hello. Could you please help me with the problem below. Thank you. (Please find file attached)
Pete has two accounts with XBank, a savings account and a checking account. The fees on checking
account are 10% of the balance, while the interest on the savings account is 10%. Pete will be travelling for
a while and won?t need either of the accounts, but wants to keep a set amount on the checking account at
all time for a case of emergency.
At the beginning of his trip he has a deposit of $1000 on the checking account, and a deposit of $1000 on
the savings account. To balance the accounts, Pete scheduled a regular transfer of $100 from the savings to
the checking account. Pete reasons that the 10% interest on the savings account will cover exactly the fee.
Upon his return, Pete finds much to his surprise that his accounts fall short of the expected $2000. He calls
customer service of XBank. The customer representative tells him that they can?t find any problem with
their banking software; they tested it a few times with the amounts Pete provided, and each time the final
combined balance was $2000. The banking software completed three tasks, each by a separate thread. The
first thread withdraws the fee from the checking account, the second adds the interest to the savings
account, and the final thread transfers $100 from the savings to checking account.
Question 1
Open the project banking, clean and build it, and run it a few times. Can you reproduce Pete?s problem?
Analyze and describe the problem, and how to solve it. Use the debugger if necessary.

Twitter Inc said it would lay off up to 336 employees, or cut about 8 percent of its global workforce, as part of an overall plan to streamline operations.
The layoffs come about a week after the microblogging service provider appointed its co-founder Jack Dorsey its permanent CEO.
Twitter shares rose 2.3 percent to $29.41 in premarket trading on Tuesday.
Twitter said it expected to incur about $10 million-$20 million in severance costs and $5 million-$15 million in restructuring costs.
The company said it expected to record most of these pretax restructuring charges in the quarter ended Dec. 31.
