Please add a "relative" entry to your dictionary.
To many, it may seem that the lobster's most natural habitat is on a large, oval plate between a cup of drawn butter and a lemon wedge.
In fact, only a few of the hundreds of types of lobster are caught commercially. But those few species are some of the most heavily harvested creatures in the sea, and generate a multi-billion-dollar industry, with more than 200,000 tons (181,436 metric tons) of annual global catch.
The lobsters that most people know from their dinner plates are the American and European clawed lobsters Homarus americanus and Homarus gammarus. These are cold water species that live on either sides of the northern Atlantic Ocean. There are also tropical lobsters that are widely consumed, but these are generally clawless varieties called spiny and slipper lobsters.
Lobsters are ten-legged crustaceans closely related to shrimp and crabs. These benthic, or bottom-dwelling, creatures are found in all of the world's oceans, as well as brackish environments and even freshwater. They have poor eyesight but highly developed senses of taste and smell. They feed primarily on fish and mollusks, but will consume algae and other plant life and even other lobsters.
Female lobsters carry their eggs under their abdomens for up to a year before releasing them as larvae into the water. The larvae go through several stages in the water column before settling on the bottom, where they spend the rest of their lives. They generally prefer to live in self-dug burrows, in rocky crevices, or hidden among sea grasses. Lobsters must shed their shells in order to grow, and some species can live to be 50 years old or more, growing continually throughout their lives.
Lobsters have not always been considered chic eats. In 17th- and 18th-century America, they were so abundant in the northeast that they were often used as fertilizer. Laws were even passed forbidding people to feed servants lobster more than twice a week. However, improvements in U.S. transportation infrastructure in the 19th and 20th century brought fresh lobster to distant urban areas, and its reputation as a delicacy grew.
Populations of commercially important lobster species are thought to be declining, and overfishing, particularly of clawed lobsters in Europe, is taking a toll. Additionally, pollution is causing shell rot and other illnesses in normally disease-resistant species.

Several years ago, a fifteen year old boy was seduced by a nineteen year old girl, both of whom were members of my church. It did not look like true love to me.
Normally, if we see a young man pursuing a minor, we call that a crime. In this case, the girl was the predator and I think she committed a crime.
I did not handle it well at all. I took too long before trying to intervene and then I botched it badly. First, I didn't speak at all, and then I spoke too loudly when I should have been soft. I ended up offending both families.
The girl became pregnant, just as she had planned. Her family made some not-so-veiled threats of bodily harm against me. The boy's father campaigned for the next year to rid the church of me, and he succeeded. The boy and girl were wedded to each other in a short turbulent marriage. And I moved far away.
I'm thinking about this now because my son is the age of that boy. I think of that boy's father and I understand his anger and I even understand why it was misplaced toward me, but I despise him for his lying, cowardly ways. As a father, I would never have allowed the boy to be taken from my family so easily
As the pastor, I see how I should have handled many things differently. But I was confused, trying to function in a terribly dysfunctional church, where many awful things happened. Evil was covered over, and anyone who spoke up was cursed for causing trouble.
There wasn't anything I could have done to make that church substantially better. The most I could have accomplished is to have helped them be less sick, and it wouldn't have been worth the effort.
That church should not have existed. I regret that I put any effort at all in keeping them together, and I'm sorrier still for bringing anyone into that sick family. If I had had the power, I should have disbanded that sorry little group of crazies.
It was years ago now, but it burdens me that I was a part of a group that used God and religion to make people worse rather than better.
In mainline denominations, congregations are closed down when they cannot continue to maintain themselves. But I think a lot of churches ought to be closed down simply because they are mean and hurt people, whether or not they can pay the bills.
Yeah. Shut them down and use the building for taverns or school dorms, or homeless shelters. Or clear the buildings and develop a park with grass and trees and flowers. Make it a place that promotes life, rather than death.

Our study also shows that we need to work harder to raise awareness about flood risk. I hope that RiskCentral can help people to make the right property decisions, reduce costs and, most importantly, limit their risk to flooding."-------------------------------------------------- 1. Survey of 600 homeowners in England and Scotland undertaken in August 2012 and conducted by One Poll on behalf of Ambiental Technical Solutions Ltd. 2. Under-pricing of the flood element of home insurance for domestic customers at significant risk.

Ambiental has taken very high detail topographic / terrain data for the whole UK and have used this in conjunction with complex computer models to analyse water flow around individual buildings within the landscape. Based on the computer modelled flood water level, a predicted area of inundation, or flood zone, can be mapped out. Three types of flood modelling were carried out by Ambiental on behalf of RiskCentral: fluvial (river) flood; coastal / tidal; and pluvial (surface water). The overall flood risk score, featured in full reports, is calculated by searching at lightning speed through each of these individual flood databases, hosted in the Cloud, to see if a specific location falls within or near one of these pre-defined flood zones. RiskCentral reports provide consumers with invaluable information relating to flood risk and recommendations for dealing with it. SOURCE RiskCentral

Tournament Poems
The three poems that got me through the recent poetry tournament
Round 1 - Rhyme and Meter: Sucker punch
Look to the pen, then to the paper
and back to the pen.
Swallow hard, let doubt subside…
'Good sir, begin again!'
This time, more feeling, count the baboons around
you –Stop at ten.
With a deep breath take the pen in your hand,
write your insides down
so we can all understand.
Fear not, the left wing pacifism
of those that entwine in to your space.
What is no more than cowardice,
has lost us this place.
The weak lead on with unimaginable strength,
followed by a plethora of fools;
be it an oaf
or a wench.
These are the empty shells
that should be reduced to the soil.
For I am done with these troubles,
And being brought to the boil.
Listing words I despise:
Celebrity, football, politicians and life
Affirm once again what I said to a friend:
'We are destined to be nothing until we tend
to our minds.'

I have quite a few knives and had my eye on this one for awhile because it blends a lot of my favorite features. Andrew Demko did a fine job on this design and Cold Steel delivers on quality and value as usual.
I've EDC'd a CS Spartan for two years, so by comparison the AK feels like a feather. The aggressive G-10 grip and handle shape provide the securest purchase that I've experienced with a folder.
The thumb-stud that doubles as a pocket "wave" feature is awesome! The thing is literally FASTER than a switch-blade!
My only complaint is the black teflon blade coating. It's kind of shiny and cheap looking, and almost immediately began wearing off. Cold Steel should really figure out a better alternative. Maybe a titanium-nitrate similar to that used by SOG. If they fix that, we're talking PERFECTION!
this knife is tough,sharp, and tactical. the blade is good for cutting and pucturing. after lots of use of constant cutting the paint will come off but not the edge, its all a part of earning its stripes. its a really dependable in so many ways not to mention that the handle of the knife has a lanyard hole which in an emergency can be used to hammer or use it as a non lethal weapon. overall it earns its name as an ak 47
The knife is tough as nails and will not disappoint! Sharp as a razer (or sharper) and with the tri-ad locking mechanism, this knife will not fail on you. very satisfied and considering buying the AK mini. Cold steel is a great brand and does NOT disapppint.
This pocket knife comes paper cutting sharp right out of the box. It cuts through box tape like you are cutting air. It has a nice feature known as the thumb plate. You just snag the thumb plate on the edge of your pocket and you can open the knife as you pull it out of your pocket. The G-10 handle is a comfortable grip that also provides great traction. The pommel has a lanyard hole for those who like to attach lanyards to their knives. The knife comes with an extra pocket clip so that you can have the clip on either side of the knife, which is great for both left and right handed users. On a similar note, the thumb plate extends out on both sides making is easy for both left and right handed users to open the knife. This is an excellent everyday carry knife.
This knife is awesome...it is big enough to be used for multiple cutting uses...the grip feels natural in the hand and the blade sits just right for cutting, the knife is big enough to be used for defense but it is light enough to not drag your pocket down using it for EDC ( every day carry)
This AK-47 is the new GEN 2 (made after 2010) offering based on the original AK-47 model, main difference is an updated locking mechanism, which is supposed to be stronger. It takes some force to depress the lock release, (which is located on the middle spine of the handle) and release the blade, so it will not close up easily. A good safety feature IMO, but hard on the thumb! The older model AK-47 lock had the release lever on the side of the handle which could possibly catch on something and unlock the blade while in your hand! I can see why they would update heir design.
The blade is AUS8A steel, hollow ground and has a nice uniform black coating and arrived shaving sharp!
The strike pommel is also an excellent touch and one of the reasons I chose this blade. It will come in handy if you ever need to strike glass. I also love the G10 handle on this knife, it has a very aggressive "tread" pattern and is extremely grippy!
The "pocket snag" on the base of the blade spine also works beautifully. The pocket clip (knife comes with a spare), which is extremely though and has a strong grip, rides low enough as to allow enough gripping surface of the handle to be exposed from your pocket and allow quick, safe deployment of the blade. Nothing cooler than pulling your knife out and having it snap open as you clear the pocket! Ready for use! The pocket snag can also be removed if you don't want that feature on the knife. Either way, you can still remove the knife from your pocket without snagging it open.
Overall a great blade, the practical knife user will not be disappointed with this!! Only downside is that the GEN 2 models do not come with an aluminum handle option, only the G10, which may be a deciding factor for some. Also there is no serrated blade offered and the blood groove is absent on this newer model (stronger without it, IMO.)
A great knife. I have 2. ANYTHING COLD STEEL IS GREAT.
Wonderful knife for about half the price of retail.

ISLAMABAD: The National Assembly Standing Committee on Finance here on Monday recommended Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) to extend the date for filing tax returns without any fine till January 15.
The recommendation was made in the meeting of committee held with Khawaja Sohail Mansoor in the chair to facilitate and give opportunity to the tax return filers.
Speaking on the occasion, Shahnaz Wazir Ali said that extension of date would give FBR the opportunity to increase tax net in the country.
Besides, the committee also directed FBR to establish Tax Facility Centre in the National Assembly House to facilitate the parliamentarians.
In addition, the booklets containing the information about FBR should also be dispatched to Lawmakers, the committee recommended.
The member of committee, Bushra Gohar said that online form for filing returns of tax should be friendly and easy.
Apart from this, online form should be available in every language as any one can easily go through and fill out for filing tax returns, she said.
The committee further directed FBR to submit the tax detail of officers of grade 21 and above.
Abdul Rasheed Godil informed the committee that about Rs.67000 per year was being deducted from salary of each parliamentarian as tax.
"Why this amount was not reflected any where in the record of FBR", Godil asked the FBR authorities.
The FBR informed the committee that there were 1.8 million National Tax Number (NTN) holders in the country and 0.9 million of total were paying tax.
"The investigation is going on in the matter of leakage of information of tax detail of lawmakers, FBR said adding that as soon as it was completed, the report would be revealed.
Meanwhile, Managing Director (MD) PIA, Junaid Younus said that the PIA was operating in the profit since last 3 months after taking charge by new management.
"The fuel is one of the main reasons of losses because of the price fluctuation of fuels in the international markets", Younus said.
PIA is buying new 5 aircrafts on lease which will help us to earn more and restructuring the process would help in reducing the cost, MD informed the committee.
The Committee also directed PIA to submit detailed report on appointments and promotions made in the institution and what criteria was followed in this regard.
Apart from this, the committee also sought the detailed report on profits and losses of the country's airports with reasons.

Verity - CandiceMature
The weather was really starting to freak me out; I went to shut my curtains so I wouldn't have to watch the trees almost collapsing onto the house. I went to the window and saw Zoey hugging someone on her bed, her friend caught me staring at glared at me, I shied away and was about to shut the curtains when Zoey looked round and smiled. She signaled that I come over, I nodded and smiled, closed the curtains and headed downstairs, I had to spill my milkshake-date to someone!
"Where are you going?" Max asked his arms folded, I tied up my lace and stood up,
"Over to Zoey's," I told him,
"I thought you hated her," Max said his eyes narrowed,
"I'm over it," I smiled, "where's Mom?"
"She's staying the night in New York, she doesn't want to come back to this weather," Max informed me, "can I come too? I feel this house is going to blow away any second,"
"Dude, Zoey's house is exactly the same as ours!" I complained, "Do you have to?" As I said that, the lights flashed on and off and then went out,
"Yes I have to! Lisa's house runs on that backup generator anyway, she'll have power," Max smiled and took the lead, we ran round to Zoey's house and were welcomed in by her mom. "We just had a power cut," Max explained,
"We're now running our power off the generator," Lisa said coming into the hall, "you kids are welcome to stay for dinner, where's your mom?"
"She's staying in New York another day," I said, Lisa nodded,
"Zoey's upstairs with a friend from California," her mom told us,
"You know Hannah, Verity and Max came from LA too," Lisa told her sister,
"Interesting, where abouts?"
"Beverly Hills," Max informed her, "we didn't like it much though, did we Verity?" I just shook my head peering up the stairs,
"Go on you two, we can see you don't want to talk to us," Lisa smiled and watched as we took off our shoes and went up the stairs.
I knocked gently on the bedroom door and Zoey called "Enter!" I smiled as I came in, Max following behind,
"Sorry, he made me bring him, we're out of power over there," I told her,
"Verity and Max, this is my great friend Candice," Zoey smiled,
"Hey," Candice said wiping her eyes,
"We've just had some shocking news," Zoey smiled and hugged Candice again, "but we're ready to forget it all for now,"
"Sorry we didn't mean to impose," Max said smiling directly at Zoey, I rolled my eyes and leant back,
"It's no problem," Candice smiled, "I'm here now and ready to party!" Zoey smiled and got off the bed,
"Anyone for Hersheys?" she asked, throwing us all a bar, "I have a whole stack left over from my leaving party in Cali; I'm never going to eat all of it myself."
We ate the chocolate whilst reminiscing what life was like back in California, I must admit Max and I never really fitted in there, we were too laid back about our appearances and weren't interested in all the newest labels. I was a redhead for goodness sake! But we didn't let it on, Max had enjoyed surfing down there and they realized that they'd belonged to the same surf school/beach club.
"What are the odds?" Max smiled finishing his fourth bar of chocolate,
"I apologize for my pig of a brother," I said, Zoey just smiled and Candice continued to stare at me,
"Doesn't she remind you of Phoenix?" Candice suddenly asked Zoey, Zoey turned to me and scrutinized my face; I immediately felt embarrassed and turned red,
"She's got the same hair, but apart from that no,"
"She dresses like her too," Candice added. I was still wearing my cheerleading practice clothes, basically some short green shorts, a blue short tank top which finished halfway up my torso, I'd put a cardigan over to keep me warm and some red leg warmers.
"Phoenix wasn't a dancer," Zoey said, I didn't correct her; dancers and cheerleaders were totally different. Candice just sighed and threw a half eaten bar of chocolate back into the center of the circle.
"Hey you should come to the homecoming game tomorrow!" I told Candice to change the subject,
"You have homecoming really late!"
"I know, but it gives us more time to practice," I smiled, "us being the cheerleaders,"
"Oh! You're a cheerleader!" Candice exclaimed, "That explains all the glittery-crap on your face…and the outfit," I subtly wiped my cheek again, I thought I'd got all the glitter off,
"She's the captain," Zoey smiled,
"Only by default because the real captain is injured," my kind brother added, I smiled angrily at him,
"Aren't you funny?!" I said sarcastically,
"And…"Zoey still wasn't finished, "she's going to homecoming with the football captain! How cliché is that?!"
"Is he a redhead too?" Candice asked,
"No," I replied shortly, it wasn't like we formed a special club where we only dated people with the same colored hair.
"He's actually quite hot…if you don't mind me saying," Zoey winked at me, "and it's all thanks to me that you're going together!"
"Yeah, thanks again," I smiled, "did you find someone yet?" I asked,
"No, I don't think I'll go if I'm dateless," she said sadly, I imagined Max's heart skipped a beat or two,
"You know I'll take you if you don't get a date, you can't miss homecoming,"
"Really Max?" Zoey smiled, "That's so sweet,"
"What about me?" Candice asked,
"Honey, the boys will all want to go with you," she winked,
"I actually think the only boys who are left are redheads," I joked, "and as you're so prejudice, I guess you'll have to go alone," Candice glared at me,
"Maybe I'll just steal someone else's date…the football captain for instance, they can't resist a bit of us California girls," she smiled and flicked her long black hair like she was in a shampoo add,
"Touché," was all I could reply, if I was going to be rude, I guess I should expect it back. I blamed the inner-redhead for my bipolar like attitude; perhaps she was a closet ginger? I smiled at the idea and let the conversation continue, listening in but not saying anything, I knew when I'd stepped out of line, I didn't need glares from Lou and Ray this time. It was also out of order to be rude to a friend's friend, I just let Max attempt to flirt with Zoey, it was quite a funny sight.

A new short film highlights the differences for black people and white people living in America.
'Brave New Films' have produced the video, highlighing different studies which show the drastic differences in how black people and white people are treated in the U.S.
The shocking statistics, include:
Résumés / CVs with black-sounding names are 50% less likely to get a call back.
Black people are charged prices roughly $700 (£460) higher than white people when buying cars.
Black drivers are twice as likely to be pulled over by the police.
Black clients are shown 17.7% fewer houses for sale.
Marijuana use is equal between blacks and whites, yet black people are four times more likely to be arrested.
The video even adds that according to another study, doctors did not inform black patients as often as white patients about an important heart procedure!
These are worrying facts and the problem isn't limited to the U.S.
In the UK, studies have shown that the proportion of Britons who admit to being racially prejudiced has risen since the start of the Millenium.
In Britain, you are 28 times more likely to be stopped and searched if you are black, and five times more likely to be imprisoned.
In addition, black children are three times as likely to be permanently excluded from school, while black graduates earn on average 24% less pay then their white counterparts.
The video ends, saying:
If this isn't racism, what is? Racism isn't over.

The Police in the Scottish city of Glasgow have confirmed the arrest of a 32-year-old Muslim man in connection with the murder of a 40-year-old shopkeeper, Asad Shah, four hours after he wished Christians a 'Happy Easter' on social media, MailOnline reports.
Shah, who is originally from Pakistan, was a devout Muslim man loved in his neighbourhood for his tolerance of other religions and openness towards his neighbours.
The police also said everyone currently being investigated in connection with the murder were Muslims.
Shah had gone on Facebook on Thursday evening to write: "Good Friday and a very Happy Easter, especially to my beloved Christian nation."
And he added: "Let's follow the real footstep of beloved holy Jesus Christ and get the real success in both worlds."
Also, he was due to meet some Christian friends on Friday evening to discuss the importance of Easter before he was murdered just outside his newsagents shop.
He had in his previous posts on social media advocated for religious tolerance and spoken against hatred and violence.
He was killed with a knife around 9pm local time, four hours after he posted the Easter message on Facebook.

Disaster Response
TPA Disaster Response Network Coordinator: Mindy Kronenberg, Ph.D.
To download APA's Disaster Response Network Fact Sheet (PDF format), click here.
Disaster Response: A Closer Look
The Tennessee Psychological Association maintains a network of psychology professionals who are ready to volunteer in the event of a natural disaster or similar catastrophe. The TPA Disaster Response Network (DRN) is designed to disseminate information among psychology volunteers across the state who then provide aid through area Red Cross offices.
There are Disaster Response Networks for each state under the umbrella of the American Psychological Association and individual state Psychological Associations. Network volunteers work in conjunction with the Red Cross to provide assistance at shelters around the state. Volunteer responsibilities include providing supportive counseling to victims of disasters. Counseling is typically provided in individual and group formats at Red Cross shelters established in the wake of a disaster. Specific needs are determined through liaison with Red Cross Mental Health Coordinators at relief shelters.
Volunteers to the Network are encouraged to complete disaster response training offered through local Red Cross chapters. Training is available through your local chapter of the Red Cross. For more information go to the Red Cross website at www.redcross.org and enter your zip code to find the nearest Red Cross office offering training classes. Pertinent training courses include Disaster Mental Health Services and Psychological First Aid.
During my tenure as DRN Coordinator, I have been asked many times, "What can I expect when I respond to a disaster?" In response to this question, I thought it might be helpful to describe my recent experience after the tornados in February. The storms that swept through Arkansas, Tennessee, Alabama, and Kentucky just over a month ago killed over 50 people and injured many more. Dozens of families were left without food, shelter, or clothing. The morning after the storms, I contacted Mental Health Coordinators in the areas affected to determine the need for volunteers. I was told of the need for mental health support at the Red Cross Headquarters in Gallatin and instructed to spread the word through the Disaster Response Network. I sent an e-mail out to the DRN calling for volunteers.
I arrived at the Red Cross Headquarters in Sumner County on a Saturday morning. My first impression of the activity at HQ was one of organized chaos. I knew from previous experience that I needed to find the Volunteer Mental Health Coordinator who would assign me to a task for the day. I was uncertain about what I might be asked to do, but I had a few ideas. I knew I might be sent to an area shelter to provide brief supportive counseling. It was also possible that I would go out with a team of volunteers to meet with survivors and family members of storm victims. When I located the VMH Coordinator, I was told I would serve on a Condolence Team. In addition to me, the team consisted of two nurses and a lay volunteer. Our job was to take a list of all storm victims in the county and travel to area funeral homes to obtain contact information for next of kin responsible for funeral costs. We would then use this information to contact the next of kin to provide the $500.00 benefit the Red Cross provides toward funeral costs. During our contact with family members, my role would be to provide brief supportive therapy. Our list of victims would take us to three funeral homes by days end.
We arrived at the first funeral home to learn that visitation was in progress for two victims who were related. The family member we spoke with had lost his mother and brother in the storm. We were able to inform him of the Red Cross and FEMA benefits and provide support. I talked with him about the emotional toll of his loss, how he was coping, and about social support available to him in the community. We then assessed his need for any additional mental health referral sources and provided contact information for services in his area. At the next funeral home we found that the service for the deceased was actually in progress so we were unable to make contact with the family. At our next stop, we obtained contact information of family members of the deceased, but were unable to reach them by phone. By this point, it was late afternoon and we had made contact with all of the families on our list. We finished the day with a report to the coordinator at the Red Cross.
This experience took me out of my "comfort zone" as I had to use active listening and supportive therapy skills outside the context of a structured therapy session and in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. While it was somewhat challenging to provide therapeutic support on the fly, it was also quite rewarding to know that I was providing much needed support. Furthermore, I felt a strong sense of camaraderie with other volunteers on the team.
The DRN has worked well up to this point with several psychologists responding to initial requests for volunteers. However, we need all the help we can get. I hope you will consider joining us as a volunteer. Please do not hesitate to contact me for additional information.

The delivery company Amtrak has gone into administration for the second time in two years, placing 1,000 jobs in jeopardy and leaving customers across the country waiting for their orders.
Ernst & Young was appointed administrator by Netfold Ltd, owner of the West Midlands-based company, last Friday, less than 20 months after it waspurchased.
The decision has already had an impact on customers, who are awaiting delivery of goods such as wine from Oddbins, beds from Feather & Black, and televisions from the online retailer Dabs.com. The company also has a contract with the Government Car and Dispatch Service to carry mail between government departments.
Amtrak employs 1,000 people nationwide, either in their 80 depots or driving their fleet of over 2,000 trucks and vans.
When it was sold to Netfold in January 2007, the company had a turnover of £80m, but it has struggled in the face of rising fuel prices and falling consumer spending.
An Ernst & Young administrator said: "It's a business led by consumer demand, and as consumer spending power has weakened, Amtrak's business has suffered."
A spokesman for Ernst & Young said that customers were being told that the service would be disrupted, but that this would be in the form of a delay to delivery rather than any cancellation of orders. Amtrak had officially ceased trading, and the administrators were in the process of delivering the outstanding parcels.
Ernst & Young said employees would be receiving their full salary for the month of August, but the spokesman was unwilling to look beyond that. There had been a number of redundancies across the depot network.

BitmapPalettes.Halftone64Transparent Property
.NET Framework (current version)
Namespace: System.Windows.Media.Imaging
Gets a value that represents a color palette that contains 64 primary colors and 16 system colors, with duplicate colors removed and 1 additional transparent color. There are a total of 73 colors in this palette.
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)
Property ValueType: System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapPalette
An instance of BitmapPalette.
BitmapPalettes properties whose names end with "Transparent" have an additional "color" that is fully transparent. In the case of palettes that already have 256 colors, the last color is replaced by the transparent color.
The following code example demonstrates how to construct a new BitmapSource by using a member of the BitmapPalettes class. Although this example shows how to use the WebPalette property, you can use any member of the BitmapPalettes class in a similar way.
BitmapSource image5 = BitmapSource.Create( width, height, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Indexed1, BitmapPalettes.WebPalette, pixels, stride); FileStream stream5 = new FileStream("palette.tif", FileMode.Create); TiffBitmapEncoder encoder5 = new TiffBitmapEncoder(); encoder5.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image5)); encoder5.Save(stream5);

Bambi, a Life in the Woods(1997)
A Book by James DeVita
Recipient of the AATE Distinguished Play Award Here for the first time is a stage version of the ORIGINAL story of BAMBI written by Austrian novelist Felix Saltern in the 1920's. It is an eloquent, fascinating tale of a young deer growing up in the woods. Open stage and light. 5 women, 4 men who with variable casting may play 13 roles. Felix Salten's classic book of BAMBI tells a haunting tale of growing up. Bambi truly becomes heir to his father, the Great Prince when, having encountered and mastered for the first time the novel feelings of love, fear, loneliness and independence, he comes to understand that all of Earth's creatures are guided by a greater force than themselves. All are dependent on each. Intertwined in this great story is Bambi's growing awareness of the fragility of the forest environment and the impact of human encroachment on all of the forest inhabitants. A superbly theatrical and sensitive work of theatre, appealing to children and adults alike.

I bought a Cobra Enterprises FS380 Semi Automatic Pistol .380 ACP 3.5" Barrel 7 Rounds Black Grips Royal Blue Finish but looks black to me.
I have fired more different guns in my life than I can even start to remember.
With that I'll start by saying that it IS accurate. My first 5 rounds at 15 yds were all in score rings. My next 5 were also good but one got away, not on the paper.
This is the first gun I've bought since the very early 1990s.
My Bitches:
1. Thumb safety, operating it is a 2 hand operation.
2. Serrations on the slide are smooth making it impossible, yes, I mean impossible to manually operate it with oily fingers or oil on the slide.
3.Referring to the guns I've fired in my life; I HAVE NEVER fired a gun with a WORSE trigger pull IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. It's rough as a cob and a very hard pull. I cannot squeeze the trigger, I have to pull it, damn near jerk it.
Is it a miracle I got 9 out of 10 anywhere on the paper? Hell yes!
On the upside:
1. Good heft. It's heavier than I had expected but balance is good.
2. Nice big sights, big notch and a fat blade. After I add a colored dot to the front, perfect.
3. Grip is shaped well for my hand.
4. No jams, no fail to eject or feed with Winchester flat nose ammo.
5. $135 delivered, total price from the store to my back yard.
I'm taking the piece of junque to my favorite gunsmith, ax him to fix the trigger pull and the serrations on the slide. Maybe he can even come up with something for the "thumb" safety.
If he fixes that stuff I'll be very happy with the gun, if not it'll collect dust in the back of my gun safe.
I knew going in it did not have a slide catch, that would have been nice to have.

Daisy, i should'a checked "view more"
That was my question.. soon as i get this typed will get your response im guessing it's dumb shit read the post..
NEAT O KEEN.. I like it, i like the price, of all people i know how "wide" the j is so understand the flat slab thing.. look at it this way..whats important.. F and E stuff..yours does.. got a kick outa the worst trigger ever comment..ha ha. no press for my buddy huh.. as to the slide deal, i understand that, but here again if your CC with this pretty sure your in condition one right.. just the embarrassment of having to get both mitts on the weapon to get the safety off.. well heck you shoot out of a modified weaver anyway right. That left hand comes up and (im chuckl'n) helps with the safety... oh and maybe you could put both index fingers on the trigger.. never seen a "two" finger trigger pull before.. you could be a trend setter..
does this replace the Jennings as primary farm defence... braaaahhhaa
135 and it works.. all you can ask for.. new guns are great..im jealous.. congratulations..
a man has to hold his word, hold his beliefs, and hold a good sight picture.
Greg, A "Jennings" for home defense? LOL !! Thanks for not
accusing me of buy a cheap imitation of a Hi-Point :<)
TY Greg, on my way to a BasketBall game, See Ya!
greg az
hope mac has a good game Daisy.
The drive will be worth it.. try to stay in your own lane, right side up, the usual stuff.. OR.. see if you can drive fast enough to get home before you have an accident.. later Lou..
a man has to hold his word, hold his beliefs, and hold a good sight picture.
Thanks Greg, After last Saturday's loss Casey's team made
the playoffs. Tonight was their first and they skunked the other team 6-0, next game is Thursday and another long drive.

Those Who Wait
Hope was standing beside the window, looking out. Rain spat against the glass, rippling streams of water cascading. She was holding a tray in her hands; a steaming pot of tea, a slice of toast on a china plate and a rolled napkin in a silver ring neatly set out upon it, around small silver dishes containing butter and sugar and a tiny silver jug of milk. When Rose came up behind her she jumped, nearly upsetting the tray and all its contents onto the leaf-green carpet.
They exchanged weak half-smiles and Rose fiddled with her watch-strap.
"You going in?" Rose asked.
"After you."
"Were you waiting for me?"
"No...yes. Look, why don't you get the door?"
The door. The wood shone, aged and seasoned oak, the brass handle gleamed. Rose hardly liked to touch it. She ran her hands over the skirt of her dress and knocked softly, three taps, then pushed it open, holding it so Hope could enter first with the tray.
He was sitting up, leaning heavily against the plumped-up pillows, staring petulantly toward the mirror. The mirror was very large, sparkling silver in an ornate and heavy frame above the wide fireplace. Rose had climbed up to it as a child, tried to will herself through it like Alice. Life on the other side. Pity it hadn't worked.
Hope placed the tray on the small wheeled table and he moved grudgingly to accommodate it.
"It's not poison. It's breakfast," Hope said.
"Poison to me," he hadn't acknowledged either one of them but now he fixed his eyes on Rose. "You tell her!"
"It's just breakfast," Hope sighed but he turned on her with spitting hatred.
"Get out of here! Go on, get out. I can't listen to your stupid whining voice, look at that grotesque, hideous face of yours another moment! Leave me and Rose. I want to talk to her. Just her."
Hope rolled her eyes up to the ceiling. "I just wish..." she said and left, closing the door firmly behind her.
"Rose?" he said plaintively. "My Rose?" He moved one alabaster hand against the white sheet in a helpless gesture, inviting her to come forward and put her palm to his. Rose didn't move.
"How are you feeling?"
"Atrocious! Terrible! I'm dying Rose. I've left it all to you. You know that, don't you? Won't you come closer. Kiss me?" He lifted his cherubic face to the light. When he was still he never looked real. His face was too beautiful, sculpted and pale as marble. Copper-gold curls hung over his perfect brow and his eyes pleaded.
Rose swore under her breath and moved to the window, watching the rain. The garden looked as if it was underwater, washed in light.
"You won't die."
"Oh no?" he said. She could hear the amusement in his voice.
"The contract is up. It's done."
"But you renewed." She turned now, stared at him.
"No, not really. I put in a little something extra. It's all changed, Rose." He was sitting up, animated.
"Oh my God, what did you do?"
"We're going to have some fun. That's all. The old crow will never see it!"
"Oh hell, Grandad, what did you do!"

Designer Tips
- Use two crystals on each side of silver coin bead for contrast.
- Loop a soldered jump ring through bullion before crimping (on one end). This jump ring will hold the charms.
- Charms are created using one crystal, one keishi bead and one head pin wire-wrapped together.
- As a design element, use two jump rings on each end of the bracelet (one side for the hooks that complete the clasp and one side to hold the clasp).
- The finished length is 7". Adjust the number of beads and length of cable for a different length.

It's funny. I'd never been to Nashville to catch a Predators game before this season, despite hearing nothing but good stuff. This year? So far I've been twice, and will probably be going back. Part of that's because Nashville's the closest place to watch a NHL game live for me, and part of it is that it's fun. I detailed my opinions of it after a pre-season game against the Winnipeg Jets, and I just want to reiterate what I said before - this is what hockey is in the South. An identity, tie in to the city's culture, solid owners and management - all this lures a huge and passionate fanbase to Smashville.
There were an absolute ton of Blues fans at the game, and the competing "LET'S GO PREDATORS" chants and "LET'S GO BLUES" chants reminded me a lot of when the Pens or Flyers came to Philips Arena; it just wound up sounding like "LET'S GO *garbled drunken sound*." It wasn't the usual hostile environment between large amounts of visiting fans and the home crowd, though. Everyone tolerated everyone else. There were a few instances of chirping, but really, the Preds fans were awesome. The girls I sat next to discussed just about everything about their team with me, and vice versa; she even listened to my whining of how these were the same seats I had in Atlanta and how depressing it was for me (and it was - being back in that exact same spot about made me cry). Totally tolerant of me cheering for the Blues' token goal, totally ok with me disagreeing on penalties - and totally confused with me agreeing that the Blues got away with a few.
Super nice concessions employees, polite fans - KNOWLEDGEABLE fans - and a fun culture. If someone in the NHL could please ensure that in the re-alignment the Predators aren't in the same division as the Blues, that'd be great. I'd love to be able to go to a game and cheer for the Preds, but since they're divisional rivals with the Blues that isn't going to happen any time soon. They're not *hated* divisional rivals, though. There was no smack talk at dinner between our group of fans and the Preds fans, they didn't heckle the team, and I didn't hear anyone complain about "how dirty the Blues are" (Columbus fans who're still pissed off about a soccer match, I'm looking at you). Heck, even after the game at the Beer Sellars, when someone decided to play Journey's "Don't Stop Beliving" four freaking times, this happened:
Yup. Blues and Preds fans, coming together in total harmony against a common foe. Sure, Detroit probably doesn't consider either team to be their rivals since the Red Wings are on some plateau by themselves or something, but it's still fun to meet fans of another team that share something in common with fans of your team.
Finally, I want one of these for the Blues to skate out of. It'd probably wind up being a giant Louie head, but just once:
Anywho, Nashville, I'll be back. Not sure when, but the Blues're back in February, so pencil me in for that one.

This Article Covers
Car insurer Admiral is aiming to boost the productivity of its call centre agents after awarding Kingston Communications a "substantial contract" to upgrade its communications technology.
Jargon-buster guide to GDPR

Kingston Communications has integrated its Rialto predictive dialler with a Nortel Networks Meridian switch and Symposium Call Centre Server at Admiral.
The insurer said it initially boosted productivity by 65% after installing Kingston's Rialto technology at its Cardiff and Swansea call centres and is now expecting further benefits.
"We currently employ nearly 40 full- and part-time outbound agents who between them make over 100,000 calls a month," said Brian Martin, outbound call manager at Admiral, which sells car insurance through brands such as Bell Direct, Diamond and elephant.co.uk.
"As we convert 34% of all outbound calls into business, the ability to make more calls in less time will have a very real effect on the bottom line."
Initially, the Rialto solution was integrated with a small Private Branch Exchange that had been installed solely for this purpose. Its integration into Admiral's new Meridian and Symposium Call Centre Server, however, is the move that will bring significant extra benefits.
"It has allowed us to extend our outbound campaigns from evenings-only to continuous dialling throughout the day," said Martin. "Also, we can now record outbound calls. This is useful not just for monitoring agent performance and improving training, but also gives us an infallible record of all transactions.
"In future, we will be able to 'blend' agents too, allowing them to switch seamlessly between inbound and outbound calls."

Last Marks Creek evacuation notices lifted
Hwy. 26 open again; some residents had left - others stayed
MITCHELL, Ore. - The Waterman Complex Fire closed Highway 26 East of Prineville to Mitchell for several days, but Tuesday it's now open again for residents, but in limited fashion.
One lane re-opened with a pilot car after earlier evacuations -- and later in the day,. two lanes, at 35 mph, with motorists warned not to stop int he fire zone.
And Wednesday morning came word the week-old Marks Creek evacuation notice was lifted.
The recent evacuees were ready to go back home, and travel more easily.
But not everyone left when the fire was blazing and threatening their homes.
"Didn't really feel threatened, even though the fire was close," Eldon Williamson said.
The fire was about 300 yards away from Williamson's home in the West Branch area of Wheeler County, but he decided to stay.
Another family that evacuated said the fire was about 100 yards away from their home.
"We kind of saw the line that was burning from across the hill," Coy Mathiasen said.
Williamson said he was second-guessing himself during the fire, but ultimately had his bags packed, just in case it got too close.
"Three o'clock in the morning, I was beginning to wonder if we shouldn't leave, and we were ready to leave," Williamson recalled. "By eight o'clock in the morning, the fire had backed off and we felt safe."
The community of Mitchell also has rallied around the firefighters and everyone affected by the fire.
"Nobody will accept anything in return," Lori Mathiasen said. "They just say, 'That's what we're here for, for each other, and it's hard for us, because we're people that usually give to everyone else."
"They're really concerned with our well-being while also fighting the fire which was really touching," Russell Mathiasen said. "It's a small community up there of incident management team that work together all the time, but they do care."
Regardless whether they left or not, citizens appreciate the ability to travel to and from town again.
"We haven't been any place since the fire started so. Tomorrow probably we'll go to town," Williamson said.
At last report, the fire is over 12,000 acres and 75 percent contained. For more information on this fire and others around Oregon, visit http://inciweb.nwcg.gov/state/38/.

Real Home
Original Author: Tiggerstripn2
The tree; she opened her hand and stared at her palm.
"It is me" she said astonished.
Where, why, what happened to the water she asked a little frightened to hear the answer?
He smiled.
Please bring it back she begged.
Only you can bring it back Stacy.
Slow down you have plenty of time Frank said calmly.
You have to come with, back to your real home.
You've obtained all the knowledge possible here in the mortal realm.
Frank held out his hand, "take it, close your eyes and clear your mind".
She closed her eyes; trembling she slowly reached for his hand.
At first touch; confusion swirled aimlessly,untamed in her mind.
She begain to focus; sight's and sounds rushed through her head, filling it with her past.
Home; she whispered "real home".
You remember; don't you Stacy?
