The call of death
The dark and murky place filled me with enigmatic fear. I knelt on the cold ground waiting for my Master to appear. I could devise the light coming from the entrance of this narrow cave, outside a view of the Kingdom of Oamaru, its kingdoms clearly defined. My legs were getting numb, but I had to show discipline as a respectful sign toward my master. My hair was dark, thrown backward on my head; my eyes a deep blue.
"Caleb," a hoarse voice called my name from the darkness surrounding me.
A chill ran through my spine. Fear instill in my body, paralyzing it, the numbness forgotten. The surroundings around me were becoming colder, as cold as his master's heart. "Master Phobos," I said, mustering courage and confidence. "I have come at your request."
"Very well, my apprentice," a hooded figure appeared facing the kneeled boy, me. His feet were not touching the ground, he was floating in the air. He extended a finger toward me, bony fingers under the pitch dark cloak, blending with the darkness surrounding it. In his pale bony finger he had a ring, with his mark on it. A spear with a snake curled around it, it was a symbol of the Dark Rebellion. The Dark Rebellion, under Lord Phobos command had always wanted to cover the Kingdom of Oamaru with obscurity, eclipsing its grandiosity. Lord Phobos was a powerful sorcerer of the Dark Arts, operating from the depths of darkness, for one day he foresee the Kingdom of Oamaru fall in flames.
I placed my finger on the ring, I felt a sharp edge pinched it. One drop of my blood fell on the ring, the ring glowed with pleasure as if it were alive. I retrive my finger, that was the way to mark your relationship with the Dark Rebellion.
"You must have heard that the last oracle of Oamaru died," Lord Phobos voice dawdled in my ears and mind. "In her agony she told the Great Prophecy." He recited:
"A child shall be born of Autumn and Spring,
With the essence of Summer and Winter deep within.
Her powers unknown shall seal the fate,
Of a land lost in time, or take the bait.
Two may accompany her on her dangerous quest,
To retrieve the truth from a well-guarded nest.
Success will undoubtably bring peace to us all,
Yet failure will cause us to crash, burn and fall."
I listened intently to the prophecy, its well structured magical words touched my spirits, overwhelming it with hope.
"You will find the child of Autumn and Spring, and bring her to me," Lord Phobos said. "I shall be the one who seals her fate." His voice was brimming with agitation and anxiety. His opportunity to overtake the Kingdom of Oamaru had presented itself.
I bowed my head in compliance to his orders.
"Very well, I shall await for you," Lord Phobos said, "Good luck." He disappeared in the darkness, consuming him. Lord Phobos pale face underneath the cloak gave a ghastly appearance.
I shuddered. I stood up, stretching my legs. It was the first time I was sent to kidnap somebody since I joined the Dark Rebellion three years ago. At twelve I had been orphaned, I had great magic potential in me and Lord Phobos had sense that. He took me under his teachings and taught me the Dark Arts. I sealed my acceptance in belonging to his dark force the first time my blood dropped in the ring. If I were to betray him, my blood will freeze and I would immediately die.
I walked toward the light, once I was outside the glorious sun blinded me. I watch the Kingdom of Oamaru, its majestic beauty never ceased to amazed me. I would have learn to love this place, if the Kingdom had found me first. But destiny decided Lord Phobos to find me. I sighed and started my mission. The call of death hung in my ears, humming its macabre lullaby.

My name is NJERI . I live at Banana in Kiambu with my father. For security reason, I may want to hide some other details as I do not want my father to be arrested. All I need are good words on how to get myself out of what my father dragged me into.
My mother died 10 years ago and since then, father has not remarried. Many have ignorantly commended him for having endured for this long. But the truth is that he has practically turned me to his wife. I had tried very hard to make him see reason why he should stop the sacrilegious act of sleeping with me, but he was adamant.
It all started few months before I gained admission into KIMC to study Mass Communication. While I was preparing to leave the house, my father who is a popular businessman walked up to me in my room and handed me an envelope containing my school fees and other things that I had requested. I excitedly embraced dad who held unto me for a very long time. I managed to pull myself off his arms. It is difficult to say exactly what daddy told me, but it was obvious that he wanted to have me on bed.

My Jeep has gone into 'limp mode' as the malfunction light has been on for a few weeks. Havnt restarted engine to see if it resets yet. Had malfunction light cleared twice. I needed to see when & why it comes on. It's a P0700 fault. A transmission problem. It comes back on when doing speed on long journeys. Never on short regular drives.
It's booked in next week for full diagnosis. But not sure if I should drive it to garage or not!
Any ideas as to the fault?
Thanks Matt

Debussy was clearly a man who had resolved to have a good time in life, often at the expense of others (was it one or two of his girlfriends who tried to kill themelves?), but today it is possible that Django Reinhardt is getting his own back. He made an arrangement of Debussy's Reverie which may leave you in a pool of cold sweat, or luxuriating in Egyptian cotton sheets. Let us know, in detail please, but in the meantime have a thought for fearless Ivan who has to go and find these CD's. He is constantly in need of "recovery" cake. His favourite is chocolate.

It's too long to go into but there have been enough Darwin Incidents in the past couple years that I think they would just like the range to go away. Now I'm wondering if I got Ranger Master certification in the civilian world would that grease the skids to start the process for on base certification? I am a civilian contractor and am no longer active duty. I used to take Airmen off base to the local range but Risk Management will no longer let me do that.

Photo by Creighton Athletics
Creighton and Indiana went into their Sunday NCAA Round of 16 matches as considerable underdogs against higher seeds, but both teams delivered upsets that have shaken up the NCAA Tournament.
Creighton eliminated Akron in penalty kicks while Indiana rode an overtime game-winner from Eriq Zavaleta to eliminate No. 1 seed Notre Dame and book the Hoosiers a place in the Elite Eight.
Indiana will take on North Carolina, which avoided being FDU's latest upset victim when Cameron Brown scored an overtime winner to secure a 1-0 victory and send the defending champions to the Elite Eight.
Creighton survived an onslaught from Akron's high-powered offense, with freshman goalkeeper Jeff Gal making a plethora of outstanding saves to keep Creighton in the game. Fellow freshman Timo Pitter nailed an 83rd-minute equalizer to keep the Blue Jays alive. Akron looked like they had the game won just 30 seconds into overtime when Creighton was called for a penalty, but Gal saved Scott Caldwell's PK attempt.
The Blue Jays won the penalty shootout by converting all five penalties, with Pitter converting the clincher.
In other NCAA Tournament Round of 16 action:
Maryland avoided the upset bug in a big way, riding a Sunny Jane brace to a 5-1 thrashing of Coastal Carolina. The Terps will next face Louisville, which reached the Elite Eight on the strength of their late 2-1 win against Northwestern. Dylan Mares set up the winner in the 85th minute when he fired a shot at goal that ricocheted off a Northwestern defender, into the net.
The biggest remaining underdog in the tournament is San Diego, which eliminated a second straight seeded opponent by knocking off No. 11 seed Tulsa, 2-1. Sophomore Connor Brandt delivered the game-winning goal for the unseeded Toreros. San Diego will now face Georgetown, which beat Syracuse in penalty kicks to reach the Final Eight.
UConn was one of several team to pull off second-half comebacks, erasing a 1-0 deficit to defeat New Mexico, 2-1, in overtime. Freshman Nicholas Zuniga scored the overtime game-winner, his first college goal, to move the Huskies into an Elite Eight showdown vs. Creighton.
Here is a rundown of the Elite Eight schedule, which will take place next weekend:
Friday– (9) North Carolina vs. (16) Indiana, 6pm
Saturday– (3) Georgetown vs. San Diego, 1pm
Saturday– (2) Maryland vs. (10) Louisville, 5pm
Sunday– (4) Connecticut vs. (12) Creighton, 1pm
What did you think of Sunday's NCAA Tournament action? Which team impressed you the most? Which players caught your eye as quality pro prospects?
Share your thoughts below.
So Caleb Porter finishes his college career with one championship. And his YNT career with an embarrassing bombing out not even in the crucial round of Olympic qualifiers, at home. Not so impressive… Good recruiting work, sure, but like with college coaches who make the jump to the professional ranks in other American sports, that doesn't translate over.
Perhaps we should let him try first… I mean Larry Brown only had one championship when he made the jump. Bruce Arena is clearly a case study in failure to "translate" to the professional ranks. Herb Brooks' collegiate coaching experience obviously didn't help him at the Olympics.
Championships can certainly be a good metric for quality coaching/managing, but the reverse is not also true. The sporting world is littered with high quality coaches that don't have a case full of trophies.
The Imperative Voice
I'm confused. Arena won NCAA titles from 91-94 at UVa. Moved to DC in 96 and won the 96 MLS and USOC titles, 97 MLS, 98 Concacaf and Interamerican, coached the 02 USMNT (although also the 06), started the turnaround at NY, and then went to LA and got that team to a title by 11. How did it not translate from college to pro? He wins everywhere he goes, and can rebuild teams from the girders, which to me is indicative of a really good coach.
I give some credit to Porter for winning an NCAA title at Akron but then if you sent that same MLS-draft/ homegrown filled roster to any other school they'd probably be similarly competitive there too. And what raised as many questions as the U23 results was the lack of adaptability I saw. He had an iffy backline heavily laden with Akron grads which he happily crashed and burned with. The defense was 75% of why they finished where they did. He never addressed that team weakness. Also, in the Canada game he was unable to figure out a tactical way to breach a mediocre team's stalemate machine, and then ES he couldn't close out a lead (people forget if we don't give up the late one we win and advance 3-2). I didn't get a hint of Sir Alex about the guy…..well into that ManU game the team is down 1-0 to QPR…..puts in some speed and they eventually drub them 3-1. There is some usefulness in "recruiting," ie, rounding up good players. But I didn't see the game management, and one can argue that as impressive as a NCAA win was, with all that talent how did you not have a dynasty like Arena.
I wasn't being serious about Arena being unsuccessful. It was sarcasm. I was quickly trying to think of coaches in college who had gone on to be successful in multiple sports over a bowl of Rice Chex this morning as a counterpoint to the original post. All I could think of off the top of my head were those three.
I have no idea if Porter is a good coach or not. I'm not willing to base that opinion on one tournament or the fact that he has only won one championship. That was my point. In my opinion, neither of those facts have any bearing on his ability to coach in Portland – especially the U-23s since he was absent for much of the training. In fact, I'd almost argue that if he can get past the differences between college and the pros, the fact that he was such a good recruiter reflects an ability to relate to the people he is trying to win over that could serve him well in the pros. Professional coaching has as much to do with managing egos as it does coaching – probably why they're called managers in most places.
On a side note, by your "Sir Alex logic", almost every coach in the game is sub-par. Speed… if only it were that simple. Sir Alex's record stands alone, but bringing Chicharito in to beat pathetic QPR was no stroke of genius.
The Imperative Voice
Bradley was also a coach that went from team to team, college and pro, with success. I tend to hold up that kind of adaptibility as my coaching gold standard. All due respect to the Larry Brown argument but there is the Steve Fisher counterresponse. Porter has been handed several youth internationals on these college teams. It is not some team he cobbled together from Ohio spare parts. At minimum that fact should give people pause.
He's been coaching since 06 which was when my Dynamo moved here and won its first title. That's not exactly yesterday. That is enough of a track record versus say Wynalda's flights of fancy this year where I think this is an "informed" discussion of someone's CV as opposed to judging them unfairly on "one tournament." To me he's had several tournaments in the NCAA plus the Olympic qualifying, and the only thing that impresses me is the actual title year. The rest, well, when you are handed many of the best U23s in the land, either through Akron or the USA, I'd kind of expect something more like the dynasties of Arena at UVa or Sigi at UCLA.
Your argument might use logic but it's ad absurdum logic, drawn out to a nonsense level. I've watched Sir Alex do that other times, eg, 3-3 with AVB's Chelsea last year. Another example would be some of the changes made by Arena last year en route to the MLS title…..which finally broke down Houston. Some coaches have a game management knack, others do something closer to rolling out the ball for talent, with pushbutton subs or AVB-esque backsliding as the game progresses. I have yet to see something from Porter to move him from rote management to the sublime.
You're mocking the good coaches argument but if you look at the final four in MLS, it was perhaps with Olsen's exception, a bunch of good coaches….Sigi, Kinnear, Arena. For Portland to truly benefit from the hiring he needs to be that level. Or have we forgotten the Winter and Fraser debacles….
Fair enough, but there wasn't a discussion of his CV. There was only a mention of his "failures" as a coach (ONLY one NC and losses with U23). My argument in a nutshell was that it is too early to tell with Porter. I was arguing against snap judgements period – good or bad. I don't think that's absurd or nonsensical.
I respectfully disagree that six years is enough of a track record. In fact, the three coaches you referenced have about 80 years of experience between them, maybe more. I don't think that's a coincidence. I do agree that there is a difference between tactical management of the game and a talent-based approach of "letting players play", but you need talent regardless. Bruce Arena, Sigi Schmid, and SAF have all had truckloads of it.
I'm willing to give Porter time before passing final judgement. That's all. There was meant to be nothing more to my "argument" than that.
try what? He will be out in lest that a year.
What we have there is the "sample size problem." You're talking about roughly half a dozen games or so cumulatively between all the non-championships (and two of those were on penalties) and the Olympics. He'll have coached more than that for the Timbers by May.
Also, he had almost no time to work with the players on the Olympic team, between them being with their clubs and Porter being hired very late in the game. In fact, what I blame Porter for there was trying to implement a radically different playing style for most of them with in a matter of a few weeks, one that would have taken probably a year for a lot of them to learn.
He'll have to adapt to the pro game and swallow some pride here and there, just like Jason Kreis did, and he may not get the knack right away, just as Kreis didn't. But he'll get a lot more games to figure it out than the number you're citing here.
Porter was at Akron for 7 years. It took him a couple years to get his recruits into the system. In 2008, Akron got screwed in the Elite Eight and had to travel to Northwestern when they were the higher seed. In 2009, they lost the championship on PKs. Not exactly Porter's fault. Also remember that Akron was playing without two of the top offensive mids in Nanchoff and Ampaipitawkwong. In 2010, he won. In 2011, Akron rebuilt, yet still made it to the Elite Eight. Last night, was a complete disappointment. However, this wasn't Porter's fault. Akron completely dominated with 30 shots. It's not Porter's fault no one could finish. Caldwell should have ended it with his PK in the second OT.
The Imperative Voice
Two games against Creighton, two 1-1 ties. I don't even see it as an upset.
Not the coach's fault if his team can't finish….? What exactly do coaches do then?
Did you watch the matches? Creighton is an extremely good team. I would not be surprised if they win the whole thing. Certainly better than Notre Dame of Indiana.
The Imperative Voice
I was giving Creighton some respect. If Akron can't even beat them all season it's not an upset, it's a fact of life.
Related point, people were moaning about Akron's seed the other day but the reality is that with hundreds of teams and uneven scheduling it can be hard to sort out the true pecking order. Strength of schedule and ratings indices are just an attempt to put some objectivity into what would otherwise be a pretty subjective exercise…..I mean, if you played Akron's conference schedule with a team laden with youth NT types, you'd have a strong record and make the NCAAs practically rolling out of bed.
First, Akron should have won the first match against Creighton. Akron scored a goal in OT that the ref inexplicably ruled offsides. Absolute joke of a call. Secondly, Akron executed their offense last night and created chance after chance. How is it Porter's fault that none of the guys could finish? Akron kept hitting it off the crossbar, just missing, or the Creighton keeper made a great save. I don't see how you can blame a coach for his guys not finishing their opportunities. Now if no opportunities were created, then yes it would be the coaches fault through poor strategy.
The Imperative Voice
Using the players who can shoot….
conducting shooting practice…..
focusing on shooting if it's a problem…..
His top two scorers were a Costa Rican U18(Brenes) and a US U18 (Caldwell). The team is loaded in terms of highly recruited talent (not saying they necessarily know what they are doing but they obviously do well in competing for the sort of players most others want). They are good enough where US U17 GK and Dynamo Academy keeper Pina is a mere backup. If that team doesn't succeed then I back up a step and ask hmmmm how do you mess that up? You're suggesting the attackers couldn't shoot but hmmm they got the same result against Creighton earlier in the year. Another hint a coach isn't impacting the team….the results don't change over time.
He's not as big of a joke as UCLA's Salcedo who used to lose with players like Zizzo and Feilhaber, but you hand him a bunch of Congan and Costa Rican and US youth players who fill MLS drafts and he wins just once? Something's off.
I don't know what you think they do, but I know for a fact they don't put a uniform on and finish.
How about some love for Louisville's coach Ken Lolla. He was the guy at Akron before Porter. He made Akron a winner (including 5 NCAA appearances) then did the same think to Louisville (which had only 7 winning seasons in 27 years and now has had 14 thanks to him). He took Akron to the Elite 8 in 2005 (losing on PK's to eventual champ Maryland), Louisville to the championship game in 2010 (losing to Porter and Akron 1-0), then Elite Eight last year (losing to UCLA in double OT after having beat them twice in regular season), and is back in the Elite Eight despite graduating Austin Berry and Nick DeLeon (top two rookies in MLS this year?).
Vince the pince
Uconn v Indiana final. Take it to the bank.
I've been saying it all year. Creighton is a top 10 team. They weren't even in the top 25 at the start of the season and they knock off Akron and are now into the Elite 8. Go Jays!
I agree. I dont think anyone will trouble them except Maryland or NC.
Wow! Only the upset of Notre Dame kept the Big East from having 4 teams in the final eight. I'm not particularly a fan, but that is impressive.
The Imperative Voice
One of the interesting ones to me is Louisville. Last year they produced Austin Berry and Nick DeLeon (as well as Dynamo draft pick Colin Rolfe and LA benchwarmer Kenney Walker).
What happened to "the best conference in the country", The Big East? Again, it's the ACC, hands down, EVERY YEAR. End of conversation.
I am a Creighton fan and season ticket holder. I watched both CU-Akron games this year. Akron is clearly the better team and are the best college soccer team I have seen this year. They didn't win in Omaha because their winning goal was disallowed by a bad offsides call. Akron was even more dominant yesterday but couldn't finish as CU goal keeper Gall played the game of his life and all the breaks went Creighton's way. What is puzzeling to me is why CU coach Bolowich replaced Gall for the shootout with his son in goal. Gall had just stopped a PK in OT yet he gets replaced. Fortunately for CU the 3rd PK by Akron was not on goal. CU was lucky yesterday but we know how Akron fans feel as last year we dominated Charlotte in the National Semifinal but lost on PKs.

Growing to meet the need
The need for affordable housing and supportive services in our community continues to grow. As the economy slowly makes its way back to health, the resources available for struggling individuals and families remain sparse. In response, Imagine Housing is finding innovative ways to build more housing so that the need in our community is met. Currently, we are hard at work on new developments in the coming years. These include:
A new planned senior community with 91 affordable apartments including 27 studio, 59 one-bedroom, and 5 two-bedroom homes – including 20 apartments set aside for seniors experiencing homelessness. Athene is located next to Francis Village, a 61 unit affordable community developed by Imagine Housing in the Totem Lake neighborhood of Kirkland. As the population in our region continues to age, Imagine Housing is working to ensure that there is adequate housing for seniors. This community is slated to break ground in 2016 and open to residents in 2017.
Currently in pre-development planning, 30Bellevue will be located in the North Towne neighborhood of Bellevue next to St. Luke's Lutheran Church. 30Bellevue will have 58 affordable apartments ranging from 1 to 3-bedrooms. In partnership with St. Luke's, this complex will have easy access to public transit, wireless internet in common areas and be built to achieve Washington State Evergreen standards for energy efficiency.
We are hoping to break ground on this project summer of 2017.

Sorry for the inconvenience! Can you answer a few questions for me?
- What type of browser are you using? Have you tried running the browser in safe mode to rule out the interference of addons?
- What version of Spiceworks are you currently running? You can find out by looking at the footer of the Spiceworks dashboard page.
Let me know and we'll go from there.

Hi Dawn,
To answer your question:
1. Browser: IE 7 and Firefox both does not work. Have not tried the browser in safe mode.
2 Spiceworks Version 3.5.30664
Feb 19, 2009 at 8:05 UTC
Just to add info for question 1:
I have tried running the IE without any add-ons (Internet Explorer with Add-on disabled). Still the edit and delete links on network accounts cannot be deleted.

Hi Jimmy,
We should probably take a look at this. Could you go to C:/Program Files/Spiceworks/db and make a .zip of that folder? Then send it in to firstname.lastname@example.com and include a refrerence to this thread.

Stephen King, Kelley Armstrong, Bill Pronzini, Simon Clark, and Ramsey Campbell are the first contributors to a mind-bending new series of short-story collections that push the boundaries of horror and dark suspense to the bleeding edge. From Brian James Freeman and Richard Chizmar of the acclaimed Cemetery Dance Publications, Dark Screams: Volume Onereaches across genres to take readers beyond the precipice of mortal toil and into the glimmering void of irreality and beyond.

When a meteorite lands on his property, Jordy Verrill envisions an easy payday. Unfortunately for Jordy, this is no ordinary rock—and the uncompromising force inside has found its first target.
THE PRICE YOU PAY by Kelley Armstrong
Never pay more than you owe. Sounds like easy advice to follow. But for Kara and her childhood friend Ingrid, some debts can never be repaid . . . especially those tendered in blood.
MAGIC EYES by Bill Pronzini
Edward James Tolliver has found a weary sort of asylum among the insane. He knows he's not one of them—but how can he tell anyone about the invaders without sounding that way?
MURDER IN CHAINS by Simon Clark
Imagine awaking to find yourself in an underground vault, chained by the neck to a murderous lunatic, a grunting goliath who seems more animal than man. What would you do to save yourself?
THE WATCHED by Ramsey Campbell
Little Jimmy gets a glimpse of the cold truth when he finds out that it's not always what you see that can get you into trouble; it's who knows what you see.

Review: Time of Death: Asylum (Time of Death Book #2) by Shana Festa
Surviving the journey is just the beginning.
The last two months have brought nothing but death and destruction for Emma Rossi. She survived the initial zombie outbreak with her husband, Jake, and their dog, Daphne, but the cost was steep: Sanibel has fallen.
In a world where the only constant is change, the group is pushed to their limits before reaching the gates of Asylum, a coastal stronghold in Sarasota, Florida.
Once again, Emma must navigate an apocalyptic wasteland filled with relentless hordes of the undead and other menacing horrors that threaten her survival.
Only thing is certain. No one is safe from what lurks on either side of Asylum's gates. Asylum may offer more than just safety.
Sanity will be tested; and many won't live to tell the tale.

Review: Zombie Attack! Rise of the Horde (Zombie Attack #1) by Devan Sagliani
When 16 year old Xander's older brother Moto left him at Vandenberg Airforce Base he only had one request - don't leave no matter what. But there was no way he could have known that one day zombies would gather into groups big enough to knock down walls and take out entire buildings full of people. That was before the rise of the horde!
Now Xander is on the run, fleeing south to Port Hueneme to locate his brother with nothing but his martial arts training and the katana blade left to him. Along the way he'll have to fight for his life against other survivors, neo-Nazi's, outlaw bikers, gang bangers, cannibals, cult members, and a seemingly endless sea of flesh hungry zombies.
But Xander is far from alone. Traveling with him are Benji, a 12 year old comic book geek, and Felicity Jane, a childhood celebrity with wild mood swings. Will they make it together in one piece to the safe zone or will they become the next meal for a hungry horde of wild zombies?
Zombie Attack! Rise of the Horde is filled with pulse pounding undead action from the very first chapter up until the bitter sweet end. From rock stars and celebrities to false prophets and miracle workers, this book has it all! The story takes off like a bullet and doesn't slow down until the last sentence. You won't be able to put it down!

Review: Slip by Leslie Portu
YA Fiction As Vivien Allen begins her junior year of high school, her expectations are flat. While the status quote has always been a source of comfort, she can't silence the small voice inside of her that yearns for something out of the ordinary. When her crotchety old French teacher is replaced by Christophe, an attractive young newcomer, she senses the possibility for change, and a strange, indefinable relationship begins. But, luck, it appears, has arrived in pairs, and Vivien soon finds herself the object of attention of Declan Mieres, the star senior lacrosse player. As her intimacy with both grows, so, too, does her unease. It becomes increasingly difficult to keep her two worlds separate. When at last they collide, the repercussions are far worse than she ever imagined.

Product Review: Magnetic Screen Door by iGotTech
We received this product via Tomoson and the company iGotTech.
I have been wanting to get one of these for the longest time. Not only do they look cool, but I figured it would be perfect for my household since both of my kids like to run in and out of the house constantly.
Now I was very picky on where I wanted to put it. I figured I would try my front door as that is the door that we all use, but it didn't look like it would work unless I put it on the outside of the house where the rain and winds would get to it.
Instead I put it on my door frame leading into my laundry room and my back door. And it seems to work perfectly. My two year old has already tried it out and likes going in and out.
Now I can keep the backdoor open while we are outside and I don't have to worry about the bugs especially flies coming into the rest of the house.
It took no more than 5 minutes to install and was super easy. The only tool you need is a pair of scissors and that is so you can cut the Velcro. We also used four of the tacks that came with it to help keep it in place a bit more securely.
The magnetic that holds it down the middle stays together and there are no gaps. I am very impressed with the product and the way it is put together.
The Magnetic Screen Door was easy to install and both me and my husband worked together to make sure it went on correctly.
I do believe we will be buying more of these just to use through out the house and possibly give them as gifts.
Pictures: Now some of them are dark but I could not get the right lighting on my phone.
My husband using a tack to hold it place.
My two year old helping daddy out.
Her giving it a try.
My husband measuring it to make sure it fits.
The finish product.
Thank you iGotTech
Below is a 7 second video of my daughter using the Magnetic Screen Door.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Review: At the End of the Line by Kathryn Longino
A wrong number, and a cry of desperation at the end of the line, sparks a long distance friendship between two women who've never met. Through fourteen years of trouble and heartache from a stagnant domestic life, the struggle for civil rights, and the stigma of interracial relationships, a bond forms between the two that changes both of their lives forever.
It's 1958, a time when women and Negroes are deemed second-class and are being second-guessed, from there arises the perfect storm for change, and the perfect time for an unlikely friendship.
Beatrice "Beanie" Peterson, forced to marry at fifteen and live with two sister wives, six children, and an abusive husband twenty years her senior, is looking for a way out.
Adeline "Liddie" Garrison, friend of Jack Kennedy, wife of a prominent Boston business man, and resident of Beacon Hill has already found her way in.

Book Blitz: Bound by His Desire by Nicole Flockton
Author: Nicole Flockton
Release Date: October 22, 2014
Genre: Contemporary
From Nicole Flockton, author of Bound by her Ring – the last thing he wants is an emotional attachment to his new assistant, but it might be the only thing he truly needs.
Nick Rhodes has been burned before, so when he hires a new assistant, he has one rule: no emotional attachments. On either side. Pamela Bishop is everything he needs in a professional colleague, and comes with an ironclad guarantee – she absolutely will not fall in love with him.
Pamela Bishop has only one goal in her new job: getting on top of the mountain of debts incurred through her mother's medical expenses. Jeopardising this chance by falling in love with her arrogant, if handsome, employer is the last thing she would ever do.
But as the lure and romance of New York City surrounds them, and Pamela and Nick find themselves spending more and more time together, they can no longer ignore the attraction flaring between them.
Nick has always lived by his own rules – can he learn to break them in time to grab this one chance at happiness?

Nicole writes sexy contemporary romances, seducing you one kiss at a time as you turn the pages. She enjoys taking two characters and creating unique situations for them.
Apart from writing Nicole is busy looking after her very own hero – her wonderfully supportive husband, and two fabulous kids. She also enjoys watching sports and, of course, reading.

" Touro University Worldwide's mission is to offer campus based undergraduate education programs through its Touro College Los Angeles Division, as well as professional online degree programs to serve the needs of adult learners (service to society), professionals (intellectual pursuit), and the underserved (social justice)," says Dr. Edith Neumann, Provost of TUW. "The administration decided that undergraduate programs that are campus based would be very important to offer on-line as well. The university was approached by many of its alumni and prospective students to offer the undergraduate business degree online. Together, the campus based and online programs contribute to the achievement of the overall Touro mission." The goal of the BSBA program is for students to apply the lessons learned in the classroom to their current job, while preparing to advance their careers to the next level. Students will have the opportunity to learn firsthand from faculty and industry experts, which distinguishes TUW from other universities. Students will also have the flexibility to complete their degree on their schedule, helping them to balance other commitments. The goal of the BSBA program is to expand student views, increase their skills, and advance their careers.

It' is talcen for granted that not very much legislation will be attempted,/ the time is so short. There seems to be a feeling that some measure for cheaper school Ixtoks should and wiUljepassod.' ^The oldv 'time pub-tishers are working � together to oppose state uhiformity or state pftblication. A new:.sctidol; book trust composed"of pub-Ijshersqf cheap books at St. Paul.Indianr opolis and 8t.,Loui3, is working for state publication, expeCUng to get the con-tractaf.thatiB decided upon. .To: most people-it looks - as if- the public would simply bo changing from one :'pool :or trust to another, with the added disad-i vantagethat the change would result in an inferior article of text books. So that scheme is meeting with much oppo-. sition. Inquiry shows that in most places the f real' cause for complain t is against the retail denier, who mak(is tlie profit,':and not tlie'pnbhslier, who makes a.veryrsmall margm of profit. As th'e result of all the arguments and discussions it" 18,. predicted now that the actual legislation ::nttie subject this season' will be some measure to : allow or cotli-pel the directors of any scliool district to liuy, the books direct- from the pub-lisheju and furnish them tothe pupi sat co|t, where they are able 'to pay for them;,and free when they are not able; ThaE.will be a compromise between the various plans for- free . text books, state unilormity, state publication and - district purcliase. � It seems to ne praotically settled that the . pbarmacy liquor ^ Inw will be amended about as the druggists, have proposed, taking, awav the harsh and oppressive features of the present law. . lit seems tO'bQ,undfrstood;alBO that there will be no material change in;'the prohibition law, except possibly to amend It so that the iabupesof ;;illega. searches and seizures may be cut off.

Nearly all of the committees have made their reports, and several of them have already been adopted.. The report of the committee on customs union, which considers reciprocities, is in the hands of (he printer. The three committees on postal and cable communication on the Atlantic, Pacific and Caribbean sea, have their reports prepared, and they are now being translated. The reports of the committee on customs regulations and the committee on port dues are both about ready. The corami.tee on extradition and banking will finish their labors withm a few days^ The committee on arbitration has agreed" to recommend the adoption of that method for settling international differences, but has not yet arrived at an agreement as to the details of the plan for its report. The committee on monetary convention will make two reports, one "of which will recommend the coinage of a common silver dollar to be.legal tender in com-mircial, transactions between the citizens of the several nations. The other report prepared and presented by Mr. Coolage,. of the Unit�d States delegation, will recommend the issue of oertiflcatos by the United States upon any bullion that may be deposited in the United States treasury by the citizens or authorities of the Central and South American states. These reports are both in the hands of the printer, and will be submitted for. action very soon. The re-portsof the committee on railway communications, sanitary regulations and weights and measures have been already adopted by the conference. Many HougUB Under Water.

Pacific Lutheran University.
Paul taught philosophy at Pacific Lutheran University from 1971 to 2012, having been educated at Wooster, Yale, and Vanderbilt. He taught widely in philosophy and cross-disciplinary curricula. Courses in the last decade of his teaching include Biomedical Ethics, Human Identity and Bioethics, Health and Social Justice, Business Ethics, Human Rights, and The Nature of Human Well-Being. He also served Pacific Lutheran University in various administrative positions, including Provost. He retired to Professor Emeritus in summer 2012.
His scholarly work, which continues unabated in retirement, has been focused on health care ethics. It includes two books on moral questions in health care economics, numerous articles on health system structure and health care reform, and a recently co-edited book (2012) on the tension between treatment and prevention in health policy.
Paul resides near Coupeville WA, on Whidbey Island.

Last week, I wrote about the value of the information parents receive when their kids take common — or standardized — assessments.
When is inclusion done right? Sessions at education conferences where Lynn Fuchs is speaking on this topic (and others related to accessing the curriculum) are always packed.
In the video clip below, Fuchs — the Nicholas Hobbs Professor of Special Education and Human Development at Vanderbilt University — has sage advice about effective inclusion of students with disabilities in general education classrooms.
I recently learned that my work has been used as justification by school officials who advocate deliberately concentrating poverty in a few schools.
My reaction is dismay.
The high-performing, high-poverty schools I write about hold many lessons, but none of them is that we should deliberately create more high-poverty schools.
In the last few weeks I've visited five schools in four states. Each of them educates large numbers of students from low-income homes and students of color, and each is either high-performing or on an impressive improvement trajectory.
The schools are different in lots of ways, but one thing characterizes them all: Teachers, principals, and other administrators work hard at building trusting relationships that help create a sense of agency and purpose.
Here are three examples of what I mean:
"I don't think there's a child out there who doesn't want to learn and be the best they can be."
Those are the words of Barbara Preuss, a veteran educator with more than 30 years of experience.
That is to say, she is no bright-eyed novice about to be confronted by reality. She is confronted by plenty of reality, every day. And yet she retains her belief that even the kids who act out and misbehave still want to learn and still need to learn.
She retains this belief because she has seen it again and again, in all the schools where she has worked.
I was lucky enough to speak a few weeks ago at Learning Forward, an organization dedicated to the professional growth and development of educators. It was great to talk with a group of educators dedicated to professional learning. But even better was that two principals about whom I have written a great deal were both in attendance. I was able to introduce them and then sit back and hear them almost immediately connect on the issue of how important it is for school principals to have high expectations for students.

I wanted to ask your opinion regarding the structure of report cards for parents of students in grades 3-5. Understanding that ELA CCSS intertwines the areas of reading, language, spelling, writing, and moving toward creating district standards-based report cards in all K-5 grade levels, how do you think students' progress should be reported out to parents via report cards, as we transition? Would you recommend having an ELA grade on the report card or segregating particular areas as a stand alone grade?
