This story was created for entertainment purposes only. No copyright infringement is intended. The original characters, situations, and story are the property of the author(s). Thank you to the amazing writers, producers, actors, crew and directors who brought it to life. (Past Tense! So sad!)
CHARACTERS: Rodney, Team, OCs with guns
STATUS: Complete in 12 parts (to be posted as I revise)
ACKNOWLEDGMENT: Thanks NT, as always.
SPOILERS: All the way through to the fifth season, with some blatant ones for First Contact and Search & Rescue. I've seen 'em all and I'm going to use them all…well, except for the season finale. This probably happens before that.
A/N: This was written as a Christmas gift for my friend GateBiscuit, who requested a team story with "traps, traps, traps!" 'cause that's how she rolls.
A/N 2: I did not set out intending to limit it to the two POVs I did, but that's how it ended up. Once I'd started down that route, I forced myself to stick with it—just to see if I could.
DESCRIPTION: A kidnapped McKay, traps, a focused Ronon, more traps, a determined Sheppard and Teyla, traps again, a temple of doom, even more traps, OCs with guns, and a dash of team love to finish it off. And, as it's me, something probably explodes.
"This is an incredibly stupid idea. You know that, right?"
Raina clenched her jaw, and shook her head. "Shut up and keep moving."
"Was it yours? Or Harpo's? Because it'll answer a question for me that I've been curious about: are you the moron who thought it up, or the even bigger moron who agreed with it?"
"You need to shut up." Raina answered through gritted teeth. It was taking an enormous amount of will power not to pull the trigger. Think of the gold. She delivered a fairly vicious kick to a loose rock on the path, taking out some of her anger that way. "And for your information, I think you're wrong."
"You say that because you have the gun. You and Harpo up there. But, since you know who I am, and you know who is probably searching for me right now, then you must realize somewhere in that blonde, pea-sized brain of yours that this is a terrible, horrible, and completely asinine idea!"
"Oh for….What is wrong with you?" she demanded, waving the gun at him. "Do you want me to shoot you?"
"I want you to let me go! And if you do," his voice changed, from enraged to plaintive in less than a second, "I swear, we won't come after you. I'll tell them it was a youthful indiscretion on your parts, two kids out for a joyride, so to speak. I mean, what are you, 18? 19?"
"40?" he squeaked. "Really? Wow, healthy eating, eh? Lots of trips to the gym? Is he older than you? Because, if so, what's his secret? I mean, seriously, all that blond hair, how is he not losing it? I was almost as blond as him until my mid-twenties, then I started to—"
"Shut up!"
"Okay, okay, look, I'm just trying to do you a favor here. My teammates really frown on people kidnapping me. The big one? Ronon? He gets really angry, and you don't want to see him angry. So, how about letting me go, huh?"
"Why won't you shut up?"
"Not in my nature. Look, I know I keep saying this, but this? This is a really, really bad idea. You need to let me go. It's in your own best interest, trust me."
"Not happening! Now shut up and keep moving, or I swear, I'll shoot something that won't slow you down but still cause you great pain—do you really need your left pinky for example?"
"Oh nice. Very nice." The sarcastic anger was back. How did he switch between the two so quickly? "Do they teach you sadism in kidnapping school, or is it just part of your natural charm?"
Raina's eye twitched, but she still didn't pull the trigger. That was a miracle, really. She had hated this man from the first moment she'd met him. If she hadn't needed him so badly…
Dr. Rodney McKay of Atlantis. A man from another galaxy, so the story went, with a knowledge of human, wraith and Ancient technology that defied reason, if not human ability. He'd woken Atlantis, he'd challenged everyone from the Wraith to the Genii to the Ancients themselves, and won, time and time again. He'd destroyed worlds, and created others. There was even a story that he had destroyed an entire solar system. He had all the markings of a god among men.
Not that Raina believed half of it, or even a quarter (a solar system? Come on!). But even if she didn't believe the stories, she had expected him to be extremely intelligent. There was always a layer of fact underlying every fiction, and he and his team had most definitely woken the sleeping city of Atlantis. That alone set him above everyone else in this galaxy, the Wraith included. So, she'd expected brilliance.
What she hadn't expected was the arrogance.
Or the smug smile.
Or the sneering tone.
Or the increasingly grating voice.
Or the way she'd wanted to club him with every broken branch she walked passed.
She looked longingly at a particularly stout branch of tenwood as she climbed over another felled tree in this dense forest. Herod lead (or "Harpo" as McKay had dubbed him for some inexplicable reason), McKay was in the middle, and she was last, shoving the Atlantian forward with her weapon anytime he appeared to slow or falter. To be honest, she was beginning to enjoy the minor amount of pain she could inflict with just the right shove. When he stumbled on the far side of the tree, nearly going down on one knee, she caught up and shoved hard enough to earn a pained, "Ow! What the hell? I'm moving! I'm moving!"
She smiled, pleased.
Then the smile fell.
Blood and spit, he really was turning her into a barbarian.
Breathing in slowly, she let him pull away from her, out of shoving distance. And clubbing distance.
He scrambled over another downed tree, still following Herod. She followed a heartbeat later, keeping an eye on his hands, making sure they weren't reaching for anything that might give them away. But he was keeping them close by his sides, moving efficiently, non-threateningly.
Only his voice made him a threat.
To her sanity.
Seriously, how was he not dead yet?
Oh right. His team.
She glanced down at her watch, checking the time. Nearly mid-morning. Sheppard and the other two would be waking up sometime in the next couple of hours. Kale-fruit juice was strong, but not as long-lasting as would be ideal. But she'd had to use something local so as not to around the suspicion of the villagers when she and Herod had arrived a few months ago, as refugees. Coming to a new place packing packets of strong sedatives would not have been a smart move.
Besides, Kale-fruit juice had the benefit of smelling like what she had been told was "citrus," which guaranteed McKay would not drink it along with the others, based on the intel they'd received.
Kidnapping him just before dawn, thus, had been fairly easy. The look on his face when he realized the others weren't going to wake up and save him…
Raina gave herself a mental pat on the back for the simplicity of the plan. Even Herod had been impressed, and she'd long ago thought she would never impress her older brother ever again.
"Are we there yet?" McKay suddenly demanded, sounding like a recalcitrant child. "Because I'm really beginning to hate this walk."
"Keep moving," she ordered.
"How come big and silent up there never talks?" McKay asked then, twisting his upper body so he could look at her over his shoulder.
"Herod only talks if something needs to be said," Raina replied. "And so far, nothing has needed to be said."
"Nothing has needed to be said?" McKay spluttered, throwing up his arms. "Are you joking? You kidnapped me, are walking me to god knows where, and you have yet to tell me why! I've asked, but all I get is a 'keep moving' from you, or silence from Harpo up there. I'd even take a horn blat if it'd give me a clue. I mean, if you had marched me through the Gate to the Genii homeworld, I would have had a clue. Or if you had taken me to a Wraith ship or some Ancient facility, I would have figured it out. But this endless walking to nowhere? What the hell is up?"
"You talk too much," Raina spat.
"I talk too much," McKay repeated, giving a short laugh. "Well, I should. I'm talking for three, apparently. Look, at least give me a hint. Don't I at least deserve that? You need me for something, obviously. I'm guessing it's not to give a lecture on the space-time continuum, so what is it? You need something fixed, possibly, or perhaps broken? Maybe even blown up? Typically, it's one of the three." He arched an eyebrow at her, and Raina simply glared in return. He raised the other eyebrow at that, so much so that his brow furrowed like an accordion.
"Just keep moving," she said again.
"Oh, come on," he insisted, tripping slightly over another tree root. "You're going to tell me eventually, why not now?"
"If I tell you," she asked, "will you shut up?"
"No. But it'll probably shut me up for a time."
At least he was honest. Raina sighed.
She pursed her lips, trying to decide if it was worth the risk. If she told him now, and he got away before they got there, he might inform others of its location and the treasures it might hold. At the same time, having him shut up even just for a moment would be wonderful. As she pondered, she leapt over a small patch of mud—one McKay had sloshed through almost deliberately. Leaving a rather obvious footprint.
She stopped abruptly, turning to look down at it.
"Wait!" she snapped, halting both her brother and McKay in their tracks. Herod whirled around, pointing his gun at McKay before the man could even think to use her distraction to some sort of advantage. She smiled as she saw McKay's shoulders slump out of the corner of her eye.
She knelt down and picked up a nearby stick from the ground, and proceeded to slosh out the bootprint with it. Not that it would make much of a difference. He'd been very good at distracting her, hadn't he? He hadn't been chalking rocks, but he was still doing his best to leave as obvious a trail as possible. She should have been paying better attention. She'd taken the time to clear their tracks closer to the village, but in the last couple of hours…
Standing again, she walked up to him, muddy stick still in hand. He watched her come, his lips pressed together in a thin, crooked line, his brow furrowed in annoyance.
Without warning, she smacked him with the muddy stick on his right arm.
"Ow! Hey! I—"
She hit him again, harder this time. It wouldn't do more than leave a nasty bruise, but his yelp and quick, stumbling back step, landing him on his ass when he fell, was nonetheless very satisfying.
She tossed the stick away and leveled her gun at him, pulling back on the hammer.
"You should be more careful where you step," she hissed, enjoying the quick flash of panic on his face. He held up a mud-covered hand in front of his face.
"Wait, wait," he begged. "Don't, please! You need me." His peered up at her between his fingers with pleading blue eyes. "Don't you?"
She stared at him a moment, as if considering. Yes, they needed him. Quite badly, truth be told. But he didn't need to know that.
She feigned hesitation for a moment longer, long enough for him to understand that she wasn't playing a game here, and then lowered the gun.
McKay released a held breath and lowered his hand to the muddy ground.
She gestured with her weapon for him to stand up. He sighed, and pushed himself to his feet, groaning slightly at the movement. When he was back on his feet, he gave her a steady glare, wiping his muddy hands on his pants as he did so.
"Get moving," she ordered, once again gesturing with the weapon. Herod had already started walking. McKay grimaced, but didn't say anything as he turned to follow.
Raina allowed herself a small smile over having won that battle, even if it was small.
She didn't notice the piece of silver Powerbar wrapper McKay had left on the ground when he'd fallen.
Ronon studied the ground intently, moving with a measured and sure step. Fact was, the tracks were pretty easy to follow, despite someone's fairly good attempt to cover them up from time to time, like this particular boot print. Certainly, in the beginning, he would have been hard pressed to find any trace without the life sign detector guiding them (especially with his mind still muddled with Kale-juice), but now it was as easy as following an animal cub. McKay had clearly been stomping, enough that his boot print stood out in clear relief more than once along the way.
Ronon was almost insulted that McKay thought he needed to leave such an obvious trail for them.
"Damn it," Sheppard muttered, shaking the life signs detector for the third time in so many minutes. "This planet is really beginning to piss me off."
"His transponder signal is gone again?" Teyla asked, peering over his shoulder where he had stopped.
"It's intermittent at best, now. Whatever is radiating that magnetic energy and messing with it, it's getting stronger. I'm not even registering us, now."
"Meaning we're walking closer to the source," Teyla said.
Ronon watched as Sheppard looked up from the small hand-held device, squinting into the distance through the trees, as if he would see McKay walking towards them at any moment. But the Runner knew that it wouldn't happen. This print was dry—a couple of hours had passed, at least. It was already past noon; they needed to move faster. Sure, they were catching up, but not fast enough.
"We don't need the detector," he said, kneeling next to the partial boot print in the mud, and then looking up hill following a trail of recently upturned earth. He smiled wryly when he spotted the shiny piece of paper.
Teyla had clearly seen it at the same time, heading across the muddy patch of earth in order to pick it up. She studied it a moment, and then shoved it in her pocket, turning around to look at the two men with her.
"I know you two can track him," Sheppard acknowledged with a sigh, rubbing his head. "But following his transponder signal would have been faster, had this thing been working properly." He rattled the detector again, as if shaking it would make it work again. He frowned when, clearly, the screen was just as blank as before.
Ronon didn't disagree with Sheppard's statement. McKay, he would have argued with. But Sheppard was just stating fact. Still, Ronon knew how good he was. He might not work as fast as following the transponder signal, but he trusted his skills to keep them moving quickly. Especially now that the lingering effects of the Kale-juice, as the locals had called it this morning when they'd given them the antidote, had finally worn off.
"Just follow me," he said, standing again and moving to climb over the felled oak tree. "McKay's leaving an obvious trail."
"I know," Sheppard said quietly, frowning even more deeply and switching his gaze to the footprint. "Question is, why are they letting him?"
Ronon didn't answer. He knew why it worried Sheppard. Either they were being led into a trap, with McKay as bait, or whoever had him would kill him soon—probably long before they could catch up to the scientist. Neither boded well.
"We will find him soon," Teyla promised, curling her arms more tightly around the P-90 held to her chest. "They could not know that the villagers would aid us in waking this morning. Per the Village Leader's own words, we would likely still be asleep now if they hadn't found us. That gives us at least three more hours more than they would have accounted for." She lifted her chin, her chin set in a stubborn way that was remarkably McKay-like. "We will find him, and find him well."
Sheppard just grunted. He put his sunglasses on and shifted his gaze to Ronon. The Satedan disliked those sunglasses—they were a way for Sheppard to hide. He didn't like it when Sheppard hid.
"Shouldn't you be moving?" Sheppard asked him.
Ronon frowned slightly, turned, and started jogging away from them, following the most likely route that the kidnappers had taken, eyes on the ground for more signs. He heard Sheppard and Teyla move to follow close behind, and trusted them to cover him so he could keep his eyes out for tracks—and traps.
Raina released a relieved sigh when she saw the entrance of the underground temple, now familiar to her sight despite the thousands of years of growth hiding it. They'd made it.
When Herod stopped and turned to look at her, offering a hint of a smile, she found herself smiling back.
"I take it, we're here?" McKay asked, crossing his arms and lifting his chin arrogantly. "Wherever here is—standing in the middle of a forest surrounded by nothing but trees, rocks and, oh look, squirrels with…wow, really sharp teeth. Not so much squirrels then." He backed up from the tree he'd been standing next to.
"Yes, we're here," Raina acknowledged, pulling the pack off her shoulders. McKay turned and watched her without blinking, his arms not unloosing from the defensive, angry posture he held.
"And here is?" he asked.
She didn't answer immediately, instead pulling the map from her pack. Unfurling it, she handed it to him.
He stared at it a moment, then, with a sigh and a sidelong glance at Herod (her brother still had his gun trained on the scientist), he took it.
For a moment, he just looked at it, then, slowly, he began to smile. Then chuckle. Finally, he began to laugh, short and ugly and full of mockery. Raina's eye twitched again.
"Are you kidding me?" he asked, turning the map around so she could see it. It was old, that much was obvious from the fact that it was painted on hide instead of vellum and stained with use. It showed a series of chambers in an underground temple, with arrows and tiny print written in each room. The last room had a big black "X" on it. The text scattered over the map was partly in Ancient, partly in the trader's language, and partly in Wraith. The last was the reason why most people wouldn't touch the map even if their life depended on it, even if they could read Wraith, which 99% of the population of this galaxy could not (or would not). But Doctor McKay could. More to the point, he wasn't afraid to do so.
Even better, he had the kind of mind that would be able to decipher the puzzles, because that's what was written in each room. They were puzzles, which, once solved, would show them how to get past the traps…
And find the treasure.
"You kidnapped me to read a treasure map?" he spluttered, still laughing, as if it were the funniest thing he'd ever heard. "For real?" He bent over, holding a hand to his chest, gasping for air. "Oh my God, Sheppard is going to love this!"
Raina gritted her teeth, walked up to him, and, when he looked up at her…
Promptly slugged him.
He fell back with an audible "oof," landing on his rear again, the map landing next to him. Touching a hand to his face, he looked up at her with a bemused expression before it was quickly replaced by anger.
"You hit me!" he declared, as if this were a shocking thing.
"You deserved it," Herod said, standing by Raina's side now. McKay's eyes widened comically.
"He speaks! Quick, someone make a recording for posterity!"
"Shut up and read the map," Herod replied, walking over to pick up the discarded hide and tossing it to the Atlantian. Rodney flinched, as if he'd expected her brother to hit him, but Raina knew Herod too well for that. Her brother was big in size, tall and broad shouldered, short sleeves revealing corded muscles, but he rarely hit anyone. His size alone was enough to cow most people, and Herod used the threat, rather than his actual fists, to make his point. It made him something of a gentle person as a result.
No, the only one who ever really used violence was Raina. Not pretty enough to obtain a good husband, too blonde to be taken seriously on her home world, and short enough to be ignored, she'd found acceptance in being able to wield weapons very, very well.
She pulled back the hammer on her gun, and Rodney turned his gaze to her, his eyes narrowing.
"You're both mad, you know," he said. "You can't really believe that this…" He picked up the hide and shook it out, then struggled to his feet while they watched, still holding the map. He held it up again once standing. "You can't believe that it's real. A treasure map? Seriously? What sort of treasure are you expecting to find?"
"You tell us," Raina prompted, keep her stare level so as not to give away her excitement. This is what she'd been waiting for, ever since her mother had shown her the map as a child. To be fair, she didn't really know what the map promised, but everyone who had ever seen it promised that, somewhere hidden in all the text—meaning somewhere hidden in the temple beneath their feet on this planet—was the promise of gold.
"Read it," Herod said, looming a little.
Rodney hunched away from him, almost like a turtle trying to retreat into a shell. "Fine. Fine. You should really meet my friend Ronon, by the way. I bet you two would have a lot to not talk about." When Herod loomed again, Rodney cleared his throat and turned the map around to read it again. "Umm…" He pressed his lips together, pushing them in and out, his eyes skimming back and forth. After a moment, he frowned, looking across at Raina. "It's nonsense. This text, at least, the bits that are written into the rooms, read like bad poetry and riddles."
"That's because they are riddles," Raina explained. "You answer the riddles, and you can get past the traps."
Rodney glanced at her again, this time favoring her with a grimace. "Traps? What do you mean, traps?"
"Read the text on the bottom," she said in reply. He frowned this time, but dutifully shifted the hide upwards in order to read the text written across the bottom.
She knew what most of it said—the part in the trader's language was easy, and she'd had the Ancient text translated by a priest on Keltan (that was where the word "gold" had appeared). The Wraith language, however, she'd never really confirmed. But the one person she'd found who could read a smattering of the language, an old man on Cyrrian who was rumored to be a former Wraith Worshipper, had told her that it said something about power.
McKay was still reading it, his brow furrowed, and, for the first time, she saw the scientist behind the arrogant façade. As his eyes shifted across the text, curiosity filled his features, and his back straightened slightly.
He looked up at her after a moment, eyes no longer mocking but, once again, bemused. Slowly, he shook his head.
"Even after reading this, you still want to go down there?"
Raina nodded.
"Why?" he asked aghast.
Raina arched an eyebrow. "Did you miss the part about the gold?"
McKay just blinked. "The gold?"
"The Ancient text says there is a room filled with gold," she said, gesturing at it with her gun. "Second to last line."
He looked down again at the map, and then shook his head. "You really are mad."
"It is not madness!" she snapped. "Stop saying that! There is gold down there, enough for a whole village to live on without ever having to work another day in their lives, maybe even enough to purchase safety from the Wraith. How is it mad to want to get our hands on it?"
Rodney snorted. "Oh please. It's mad because this reads like a dime store novel! It's nonsense, through and through. You can't possibly believe that you'll find the most powerful source of energy in the universe down there!"
Raina straightened, and her surprise must have shown on her face, because McKay's eyes narrowed.
"Wait," he said slowly, "you haven't read all of this?"
Raina cleared her throat. "We, uh…we've never found anyone who could read Wraith. I mean, I know the Genii can, but they…." She shrugged. "They don't play well with others."
He pursed his lips, but didn't disagree. He looked down again at the map. After a moment, he said, "And you didn't want to just ask us for our help rather than kidnapping me because…."
"We don't play well with others either," she replied, not ashamed to admit it. It was the way of this galaxy. "Whatever is down there, it's going to be ours alone."
He snorted, but nodded. "Gotcha. So you need me to…?"
"Read it. Decipher the clues. Get us past the traps and to the treasure room."
He nodded again, his lips still pursed, once more staring at the map. When he looked up again, his gaze was guileless. "So, you have never actually read this whole passage on the bottom all the way through."
She shrugged. "We got the gist."
He stared at her a moment longer, then held the map up in both hands.
"The Wraith are on the verge of defeating the Lanteans," he read, "overwhelming by sheer numbers the might of the Lantean fleet. The Lanteans' last defensive strongholds are crumbling; their most secret facilities are being raided and lost. They say the Wraith have learned to use the power of the Lanteans against them, making them all but impossible to stop. And so, the Lanteans have retreated, leaving us until they can return again with greater strength." He looked up, and Raina nodded. That much had been written in the trader's language, although "Lantean" was not the word she'd read. She had seen "Ancestor" instead. Still…he seemed to know what he was reading. McKay looked down again at the map. "So," he continued, "in secret, we have been hoarding what remains of the Lanteans' gifts to us, and what gold and precious metals we can find of theirs, into the remains of the destroyed facility on this world. We will seal it in, protect it with traps, and hold this secret close until the Lanteans return to claim what is theirs. This map shall be guarded, to be returned when they return, the treasure for them, and them alone, to find." He looked up again, pausing once more because now he had read the Ancestor's language. When she nodded again, to show she knew what he had read was true, he returned one more time to the text. "Should this map be found by Wraith hands, know that this map can never be deciphered by you. You will die before its secrets are revealed, and this temple will crush you under its weight. And when the Lanteans return, beside your corpses, they will find within a source of great power, the greatest this universe can hold, and they will take it in hand to destroy what is left of your evil race. This, we promise. Our ancestors be proud. Death to the Wraith."
When he looked up again, his eyes were narrowed to slits.
Raina was breathing hard, more excited now than she had ever been before. He'd read the Wraith language so easily! No silly superstitious ideas stopping him! She knew they'd found the right person to help them!
"So," she breathed, practically grinning now, unable to hold it back. "Can you do it?"
"Do what?" he asked, his voice low.
"Read the map," she said, waving her hand at it. "Help us find the gold."
He shook his head again. "You're not serious."
"But…you just…"
"Of course I can read it," McKay snarled, "but what's the point? It's a joke." He looked down at it again. "Gold and precious metals? The Ancients weren't interested in gold. They didn't need it! Why would anyone hoard gold for them, or think they would want them too? Anyone who knew them would know that the very idea is absurd. More to the point," he was staring at her now, eyes fixed and determined, as if he could get her to listen by the mere force of his stare, "if there really is a power source down there as powerful as all that, why the hell wouldn't the Lanteans have taken it with them? Or, better yet, used it while they were still here? No," he looked down at the map again, "whoever created this was a blowhard and a nutjob. And if there really are traps down there?" He looked up again. "You can count me out. Indiana Jones, I am not. I'm not even the National Treasure guy." He tossed the map at her, and it fluttered to the ground at her feet. "Go on your own raid for the lost ark. I'll wait for the DVD, thank you very much." He crossed his arms and lifted his chin.
And Herod grabbed him by the back of his neck, neatly lifting him up onto his tiptoes.
"You," her brother said quietly, "talk too much."
McKay squeaked.
Raina smiled. She bent down and picked up the map as she listened to McKay plea to be let go. And when he squeaked again, this time with a distinctive underpinning of pain, she knew Herod was gripping even tighter.
And then abruptly, her brother let him go. McKay collapsed into a heap, whimpering slightly and curling forward over his knees, his hands on the back of his neck. Herod knelt down next to him, sneering when McKay finally lifted his head to meet his gaze.
"Are you really that foolish?" Herod asked, his voice barely above a whisper. "Everybody loves gold, Atlantian. It's the most precious form of currency in this galaxy, has been even before the Ancestors left. Hell, I bet even you like it."
The scientist shook his head. "That doesn't mean—"
"Of course it does. Don't lie about the Ancestors and say they didn't need it, or liked it. After all, they were as we were, once. Personally, I think you're just trying to stall, hoping your teammates will come along and save you. But they're not going to. They're too far behind, and once we're in the temple, they won't be able to follow us. Which brings me to my main point: you do not have a choice here. You read the map, lead us to the treasure, or we kill you. That simple. And if you whine about the idea of it one more time before doing so, I will break something inside you that you need very badly. Do you understand?"
A sort of squeaky affirmative answered him, and Raina smiled. Well, that was fun, she thought.
She walked across to the still sitting McKay and held the map out. He looked up at her with a defeated but still irritated expression, before taking the map with a shaking hand.
Sniffing, he looked again at the map. "I take it…" He stopped talking when his voice didn't rise above a croak, and Raina waited magnanimously as he swallowed and then cleared his throat. "I take it you know where the entrance is? To this first room?"
"Yes," she replied, allowing herself a modicum of smugness. "You're sitting on top of it."

Trump - You Just Did The Most Amazing Thing
4 comments:
I was in a serious relationship for about 3 years.ReplyDelete
We had a split up in March due to his Ex making threats to his children about me being no good and not to be with me.
he broke up with me. I pleaded (Mistake) then started the NC rule. After almost a month he contacted me via friends phone and asked me if I was mad. he told me he missed me and loved me.
We got back together and that lasted almost 2 months.
Now in early february a similar situation happened again, but with my children. he broke it off again. I did the pleading again with no response from her. I started NC again.
Friends of mine tell me that he'll be back again. Through a friend he told them that he loved me & missed me, but to have patience, trust and not to worry.
so i go in search online if i can get any help to save my relationship with my bf, so luckily i found a web site saying getting your ex back, fix your marriage, and restored broken relationship. so i contacted and gave a try on http://happyspelltemple.webs.com/ he promise and gave me his word that with-in 2 days i will have my relationship restored with my bf which he did as he promise i must say now that me and my bf and living happily together again also we are about to get married now all thanks to Dr happy he is indeed a real spell caster plz if you need any help like my do not hesitate to contact him on firstname.lastname@example.com or add him on whats-app +2348133873774
Hello, i am Jessica Wayne from TX, USA. Life without my husband was a real mess for me and my children I am so happy to get my Ex back through the help of Dr Noble the spell caster . My greatest surprise was that 48 hours after the Doctor prepared the spell for me, my husband who has abandoned me for 4 years suddenly called me unexpectedly and am so happy that we have come to become one again through the help of Dr Noble and am so happy to be with my husband once again. Dr Noble is a very wonderful spell caster, you can contact him if you need his assistant because i know he can also help you. contact him through his email: email@example.com immediately
This is the most wonderful thing i have ever experience and i need to share this great testimony.
About how i get my ex back after a breakup.
I never believed it, because i never heard nor learn anything about it before.
Hey guys my wife and I have been married for 15 years. For over five years I have been dealing with jealousy issues because of flirting and her having emotional type affairs with other men. I felt like my masculinity was in question and if I said the way she was acting bothered me, it seemed to make matters worse or I was accused of being controling. During this period I did state I wanted a divorce if the behavior was not going to end: texting men a night, leaving for the weekend without letting me know where she was going or not responding to messages. We do have a son and basically it's been him and I for the last year on the weekends. She disconnected completely from being a good wife and mother. In April she said she wanted a separation and I said no we need to get into marriage counseling. We did try that, but she was not very responsive and didn't give any effort. Afterward she was adamant about separation and divorce. I continued to say no and that we needed to save our family. She presented a separation agreement and I had to hire a lawyer. Because of the above behavior my lawyer suggested a private investigator. The investigator discovered my wife was having an affair with a close friend of the family who also is married with children. We know the extended families. I feel like I should tell this man's wife about what happened. This adultery has devastated me emotionally, I feel betrayed and I'm physically drained. I know my wife is passionate in terms of her sexuality, and I can't get the thought of them out of my head. It makes me question my own manhood, and I feel very inferior or that he must be a better lover or what ever. The problem is my wife pursued him. She would go to him and she lured him into this adultery. I felt this was coming for some time and could not stop it. She was not only lying to me but also to our son about what she was doing and where she was going. My family is important, my son loves her and as crazy as it sounds so do I. Can you respond with a course of action on how to proceed? I was still have a very huge place in my heart for her. so i searched for help online and I came across a website that suggested that Dr Ahmed can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and i did it then he did a spell for me. 28 hours later, my wife came to me and apologized for the wrongs she did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I, my son and my wife are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Ahmed. as it is a place to resolve marriage/relationship issues, do you want to be sure if your spouse is being faithful to you or Do you want your Ex to come back to you Contact.: E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com or call/Whats-app: +2348160153829 save your crumbling home and change of grades its 100% safe. I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you.

Happy Easter to EveryoneReplyDelete
I felt like ending it i lost my husband to another woman 2 weeks ago after 27 years of marriage . We had a lovely marriage but he started a relationship with a co worker who chased after him . He is living away near his work, and he refuses to talk to me or to come home . I am devastated and am finding it hard to cope i was emotionally down . I wish I did not love him and that I could move on but I can't . I don't know how to stop feeling like this I wish I could and its eating me away and I m starting to feel ill. I have degraded myself begging him to come home all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr Noble can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and I also came across several testimonies about this particular man so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. two days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Noble . If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. if you have any problem contact him, I give you 100% guarantee that he will help you, This is his details, E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com , Web blog: http://drnoblespell.blogspot.com.ng/.

Chapter 16
Jack gave me a hug. "I shouldn't have said anything."
"No, it was the right thing to do. We couldn't have me holding you fully responsible."
My voice was slightly muffled because I'd buried my head in Jack's shoulder but I could still hear the small tremors in it. I tried to stop myself from crying because I didn't want to seem self-pitying.
Jack rubbed my shoulder. "I love you," he whispered in my ear.
"Rosie!" I was startled by Ross's sudden interruption.
I sat up and glanced at him. "Is something wrong, Ross?"
He looked appalled. "You're hugging Jack! Jack doesn't need you!"
He wants my full, undivided attention, I realised.
"Um, yeah, of course. Sorry." I rubbed Ross's arm. "I love you, Ross."
Ross seemed satisfied. "That's good."
"Um, do you want to wait downstairs while I pack my stuff then?"
Ross beamed. "You're coming?"
"It appears so," I muttered under my breath. Jack smiled faintly. I nodded.
"Brilliant. I'll go and tell Mr and Mrs Foster." Ross pushed himself into a sitting position and stood up.
Jack followed suit. "It's Foxtail, Ross. Mr and Mrs Foxtail."
Ross shrugged as he walked out the room.
Jack winked at me before he left. "I'll be the best big brother in the world."
I grinned. "You were mine before we went out."
Jack smiled. "I still am, silly."
He turned and left.
I sighed as I set to the task of packing my clothes, toiletries and school books. I packed up my laptop and sleeping bag and carried the whole lot downstairs.
In the living room, my parents were frowning slightly.
"Hi," I said. "Um, has Jack explained?"
They nodded.
"You'll keep on with your work, won't you?" my dad asked.
"Oh, of course," I said.
"A piece of advice, honey," my mum said. "Don't ... be too close with Ross. Treat him like you're babysitting him."
I frowned slightly. "Why?"
My mum looked at Jack.
'It'll be slightly uncomfortable if you kiss him or anything like that,' came Jack's mental voice in my mind. 'You can hug him, of course, but really he's like a child and you're still a 17 year old.'
"Oh, thanks, Mum," I said, smiling.
"And don't give him everything he wants," Dad said. "You're entitled to say no if he's too demanding."
"I feel like a parent," I said.
Wide grins broke out on everyone's faces. I think Ross was happy that I wasn't leaving him to go home on his own, rather than smiling from the joke, though.
Ross lay on his front, his head at the foot of the bed.
I gazed up into cerulean eyes from my position on top of my sleeping bag on the floor. I sighed at the elated expression on Ross's face.
"So what are we going to do, Rosie? Drink hot chocolate and make brownies?"
"Um, maybe tomorrow, Ross; I'm a bit tired tonight."
Ross's face fell slightly. "Oh."
"Are we just going to bed then?"
I nodded. "It's not that I don't want to do things with you, it's just I haven't got enough energy at the moment."
"That's a shame."
Seeing his disappointed face evoked motherly feelings of tenderness from me. I reached out to touch his face... and instantly regretted it.
There were absolutely no walls. Ross openly conveyed his defencelessness and simple views on life. Everything was from a child's perspective.
'Rosie won't play. Rosie's never hanged out with me,' came Ross's sad mental voice across the vastness. His sorrow seemed to totally fill the expanse of the psychic link.
I saw memories of Jack and me in reception in the playground, always finding something new to do. Ross was always standing back, having never been invited to join in.
Jack's 5th birthday party. Ross had watched while I gave Jack a hug and waited for his own but I'd totally ignored him.
My own 5th birthday party. Tugging Jack over to look at my presents while Ross was left to sit with the adults and be bored.
I withdrew my hand with a tear in my eye. Had I contributed to Ross's coldness?
I saw immense sadness in the eyes before me. I tried to tell myself that I'd only been 4, but it was hard not to feel guilty.
"I love you," I said, choking back a sob. "And I'm sorry I haven't always been there for you, but I promise that's going to change."
Ross looked slightly cheered. "Thanks Rosie."
I stood up and gave him a hug. I tried to ignore his thoughts so I wasn't taking advantage of his childlike innocence or being intrusive. Really it was wrong to touch him at all because of the way he didn't hide any part of himself from you when he surely would if he were thinking straight.
'You're not going to hug me?!'
Oops. I'd forgotten the psychic link was a two-way thing. I let go of Ross, looked down into those sad, surprised eyes and knew I'd either have to lie or keep taking advantage of him.
I shook my head. "Of course I'll hug you again," I lied, feeling awful. It wasn't right to lie to a child, much less to one who was completely dependent on you.
Ross looked relieved. "Phew. It would have been scary if you'd said no."
I wandered back over to my sleeping bag. I sat down and felt lost and, quite frankly, distraught. It was nice to see a friendly face when Jack walked in.
'I came to undo the spell,' he thought to me.
'Do you have to?' I asked with my thoughts.
Jack looked surprised. 'You want us to remain mentally linked?'
I nodded. 'It might be useful.'
Jack frowned. 'I don't know, Rosa... It's a bit too much like openly admitting our love for each other for my liking. And the psychic link is really there so that the kingfisher and rose-dove can open up to each other. I don't think it's a good idea to reproduce the same effect with someone else. Sorry.'
The part of my heart which was still in love with Jack was sighing, having missed out on a chance to reawaken the relationship that still existed in dreams. It didn't usually make its intentions so clear so I was glad when it tucked itself back away.
Jack pulled out his amber and gave me a long and wistful glance. The longing culminated in the briefest yet most devastating caress of my cheek.
I was almost in tears when Jack's finger broke contact with my skin.
"Leave our minds alone to think by stopping this psychic link," Jack murmured before leaving wordlessly.
I wondered why Ross hadn't said anything before I noticed he was asleep.
I silently changed and slid down into the cosiness of my sleeping bag.
I fell asleep, only to toss and turn as Ross's memories and Jack's look of sadness haunted me in my dreams.

- - My first season (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/boards/138361-my-first-season.html)
My first season
Hi all, this is my first season of snowboarding, and I had a blast. I logged, by the looks of my rental receipts, almost 34 days. I think it's about time I bought my own board. I am 5'11" and 180lbs.size 10 feet. I bought the 32 binary boa. I was wondering if anyone has any info on the rome tour? And, would Union force be a good binding for that? Or, should I go with the rome reverb, since my rental was a burton custom. Thanks in advance for suggestions. Cheers.
You should be okay on either of those boards you won't really notice the difference to much. I've been riding my union forces all year and can't come up with anything bad to say about them. They do alright in the park and alright on the rest of the mountain as well.
pretty much what pax said. I would pick up something that's a medium flex camber, so you can try a bit of everything and the board won't get in the way. oh and make sure you get the right sized board, that makes a world of difference.
Thank you Pax, Andre, and TD for your advice. After sifting through previous "first board" threads and your advice I ended up getting the Rome Reverb 158 camber version along with Rome Boss 390 bindings. Originally, I wanted to get the Burton Custom since that was the board I had rented all along, but price wise I got a better deal for this package.
Also, I had a question but did not want to start a new thread, is it true that the Never Summer SL will be replaced by the Stormtrooper next year?

This is now our third return trip to stay at Nathalie's Breton château and so I feel compelled to write a quick review to express how impressed I was. Coming back here felt homely and familiar, something I feel lucky to have found for our annual holiday! The house is consistently clean and kitted out with everything you need. Staying in the house later in the year really proved that it is a versatile holiday home: a bright beach feel in the summer months, a cosy snug at a colder time of year (be it a large snug!). I really could not fault our stay, much the same as our previous visits! What makes this place so special is the proximity to the beach- so if the skies open up and you want a rain soaked swim, a beautiful five minute walk will take you there! Already planning 2015's visit, five stars. C
Übergabe der absolut sauberen und gut ausgerüsteten Ferienwohnung sehr freundlich. Wohnung geht über 2 Etagen und hat einen direkten Zugang zum Garten. Leicht vom Bahnhof aus zu erreichen, kurze Entfernungen zum Markt, Stadtzentrum und Strand. Küche mit Ofen und Spülmaschine sowie ausreichend Geschirr und Besteck für 9 Personen gut ausgerüstet. Bad neu renoviert. Sehr guten Internet-Zugang über WIFI problemlos verfügbar. Haus in sehr gutem Zustand - Bilder geben den tatsächlichen Zustand wieder. Selbst vergessene Gegenstände wurden nachgeschickt - absolut empfehlenswert.
Coming back to this site to book a return getaway to the villa, I felt that I had to share my previous experience here last summer...and why I will be returning!
Getting to the villa in La Baule was simple, my friends and I travel on holiday as a group and it is a relief to be able to go away without the car and minimal stress!- Only a quick train from Nantes to La Baule and we shared a taxi to the house (a taxi from the airport isn't too dear either). The quick and easy journey meant that we could open up the house and then head straight to the beach- perfect if you are on a short break!
The villa allows for the rest of your holiday to carry on in this stress-free and relaxed manner because it has everything you could need to do so: plenty of comfortable beds, huge table for long nights of dinner and wine, the option for lovely alfresco dining on the warmer nights and the bright and airy shutter-front chateau won't fail to put you in the beach-holiday mood.
Nathalie's guestbook is full of all the advice you need, whether it's a touristique holiday you want, or to slip in with the locals. All the best places to eat, how to get around and when the markets are on- read it and you can't miss out on what La Baule has to offer. Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the villa calls for a visit to THE best baker in town, conveniently across the road and very friendly (and helpful to those with less skills in the local language department!).
I HIGHLY recommend horse riding across the beach.
The villa is child-friendly with lots of space- a versatile holiday destination!
My friends and I stayed for the weekend at this beautiful house in La Baule. It wasn't long enough. The house was light, airy and spacious; the perfect place for a getaway with family or a group of friends.
It is a two minute walk from the beach and some lovely shops and restaurants. The bakery right across the road was a particular highlight, as was the nearby market town we visited on Saturday morning.
The house and La Baule offered everything we wanted from our short stay in France and Nathalie's guest book gave us lots of helpful tips and information about the house and the local area.
I would definitely recommend a stay here.
Had a fab holiday in this great house. Loved being able to walk to the beach and enjoy the beautiful weather, as well as hop across to the boulangerie for fresh bread in the morning. Light, spacious bedrooms and a lovely communal area to hang out in during the evening. Good cooking facilities and a modern bathroom, with a powerful shower to boot! La Baule itself is bustling and has everything you'd need, as well as being a nice place to wander around. Highly recommend both the house and the area.
WE stayed in La Baule at Nathalie's house for one week in August. Our group consisted of two children, aged 2 and 4, their parents and us, the Grandparents. We choose this property as it ticked all our boxes of requirements, which were, within an hour of an airport, walking distance to the beach, did not require a car during our stay, close to the train station and plenty for the 3 generations to do in our own time. It was perfect!! All requirements were met. A short walk to the beach, through pretty streets, a small shop which sold basic provisions, 1 minute away, Boulangerie across the road. The main market is a couple of blocks along the same road as the house, which is actually the main road other than the beachfront road, therefore busy, especially in the later afternoon with people leaving the beach. A Spar supermarket next to the market. Carrefour is another couple of blocks further on, it looks a long way but isn't. The Tourist Information Office is across the road from here. The train station another block or two, total of about 15-20minutes from the house – easy walk, even with a suitcase. There is a local bus service that operates to other towns approx 2 hourly in summer, stops close to the house or at the station. The house is fully fenced with a good gate, so safe for children. We made good use of the outside table and chards. Kitchen is well equipped, maybe if you have small children suggest you take some plastic mugs and plates. A circular staircase to the upper bedrooms and bathrooms makes the house unsuitable for wheelchairs. Bedrooms are very big with plenty of storage. I have read the other reviews which are very accurate and have tried to include different info in my review. This is a great house in a perfect location to explore La Baule. You will not be disappointed.
La Baule é uma bela estância balnear cosmopolita, com muitos bares e restaurantes (muitos dos quais estão situados na praia em si). O spa de renome mundial de Centre de Thalasso-therapieThalgo La Baule é uma caminhada de dois minutos de distância da casa, como é o famoso 9 km longa praia de areia branca.
Há atividades adequadas para toda a família do Spa ao Casino para os adultos para clubes de praia das crianças que prestam um dia cheio de diversão e entretenimento para as crianças.
A praia fica perto e bonito, mas não é tudo para relaxar à beira se você quiser ser mais ativo: vela, canoagem, ténis, equitação, windsurf, ciclismo, golfe - todas essas atividades são facilmente disponíveis, se você assim o desejar participar neles!
Há um charmoso mercado caminhada de dois minutos da casa oferecendo os frutos do mar mais frescos, queijos suculentas, frutas e legumes - tudo que você esperaria de um país famoso pela sua gastronomia!
Acesso a La Baule é simples e fácil.
Golfe: Golf du Croisic. Este é um campo de 9 buracos localizado mesmo na costa seguindo os contornos naturais da terra tornando-se uma reminiscência de um curso de ligação escocesa.
Golf de la Bretesche. O campo de golfe de 18 buracos em Domaine de la Bretesche é esculpido através de uma floresta de 100 anos de idade, e é considerado como uma das mais belas da França.

Small groups of interneurons, abbreviated by CPG for central pattern generators, are arranged into neural networks to generate a variety of core bursting rhythms with specific phase-locked states, on distinct time scales, which govern vital motor behaviors in invertebrates such as chewing and swimming. These movements in lower level animals mimic motions of… (More)
We compare multistability in central pattern generator (CPG) motifs comprised either of biologically plausible Hodgkin-Huxley models of bursting leech heart interneurons or of phenomenologically reduced phase models. We propose a novel computational tool for detailed examination of polyrhyth-mic bursting in biophysical CPG models with coupling asymmetries… (More)

WASHINGTON, DC, September 26, 2007 — Yale Law Women has named Covington & Burling LLP one of the Top Ten Family-Friendly Firms. The rankings were based on a number of factors, including maternity/paternity leave, emergency and on-site child care, alternative work arrangements and the ratio of women partners and associates. The 2007 list was co-sponsored by the Women's Law School Coalition, an affiliation of women's law student organizations at Yale, Stanford, Harvard, Columbia, Chicago, Berkeley, Northwestern, and Virginia law schools.

I cannot understand the obsession with the waste from fission reactors, coal fired power stations dump far more radioactivity into the environment and the deaths caused by coal mining are at least a thousand times as many as those caused by nuclear power station mishaps.The present arrangements for storing nuclear waste are adequate and the only barriers for long term underground storage are only political.
Here's a thought: What would be the longterm effect of dropping it (lightly encased) into the deepest parts of the worlds oceans?
Geezer, I am pretty sure there is much more energy made by power plants than would be expended by any number of waste disposal schemes, including launching into the sun, but the energy balance is not important. What is important is the cost. The real cost of current nuclear reactors is already so high that increasing this is unacceptable (and they told us it would be too cheap to meter).
Quote from: peppercorn on 20/12/2010 09:54:09Here's a thought: What would be the longterm effect of dropping it (lightly encased) into the deepest parts of the worlds oceans?Oi! Start your own thread, matey! []
Peppercorn, there was a plan to explore putting the waste in the bottom of subduction zones so they would be carried down into the mantle. I don't know what happened with this idea, but I suspect that concern for the already highly stressed ocean ecology might have had something to do with it.
The Shrinkomatic is nigh!
The Nuke Plants use about 10% of the power in the Fuel Rods.It is like filling your tank with gas.Using 1 gallon.Dumping the restAnd filling up again.WE NEED TO START RECYCLING THE FUEL RODSAnd, no, making them into toxic bullets doesn't count as recycling.Once that is started, that should cut the waste stream by 10 fold, and hopefully get rid of some of the most long-lived isotopes.Burying in the ocean sounds like a very bad idea. Do we have anything that would hold up to the elements for 100,000 years? Vitrify it first?Rather than being dependent on the sedimentary rate, one should just decide how deep of a hole is desired, and bury it.
Yes let's get back to the original idea...It's a terrible one!Right. New topic!I think the main problem is it's bloody heavy stuff and there's more than a fading chance of a problem a launch.
Bodies don't start to fall towards the Sun they retain the orbital energy associated with their orbit around the Sun that has to be removed in some way.There is no friction in their environment they have to be imparted with an acceleration of 30M/s from some source.
from escape velocity 11 km/s, might be 10% off

Moving Comfort Maia Bra
It's fine when your workouts twist and contort your body horizontally, vertically, and in all kinds of crazy circles. But when your bra doesn't do its job and the movement on your chest threatens to create a fourth dimension, throw on the Moving Comfort Maia Bra and restore order to the universe. Built to support big busted beauties through 26. 2 miles of a marathon or a full 90 minutes of high energy aerobics, the Maia combines two bras in one: an underwire bra with individual cups to support and separate your breasts, and a smooth outer shell that helps manage moisture while providing full coverage. Three different options for the rear hook and eye closure and adjustable straps give you a finely tuned fit. Unlike school, C, D and, well, E are indicators of awesomeness, and now you can have equally awesome support that doesn't involve full body bindings.

text: Posted 1st August 2016 at 03:39 pm Popular midfielder known for his ability to score from long range, having hit memorable strikes on his 1st and 100th appearances for the club. Wood began his career at non-league Cray Wanderers back in 2002 and he moved on to Bromley higher up the non-league pyramid, where he played predominantly as a left winger before earning a move to the Football League with Brentford. He moved to Wycombe in 2012, and on his league debut against York, he scored a 35-yard volley which was later named as Wycombe's goal of the season. Wood was offered a new two year deal at Adams Park in the summer of 2014 after playing mainly at left back last season, and has featured in midfield and sometimes in attack so far this season. Wood marked his 100th appearance with a 40-yard wonder-goal at Morecambe in October 2014 and scored six times in total that season. He followed it up with two goals in the 2015/16 campaign and had his contract extended by an extra year in the summer. By Ben Morgan

After the credits roll
Since seeing Ferris Bueller's Day Off in it's initial theatrical release, so many years ago, I refuse to leave the theater until the screen goes blank for at least two minutes, or the lights go up. This is very annoying to my wife, if she had her way, we would probably have to leave five minutes BEFORE the credits, to "beat the traffic", a strange concept indeed.
Many movies reward me for my patience; in the 2001 film Ghost World There's a bit after the credits where Steve Buscemi's character gets to defeat the clerk in the convenience store altercation. Obviously filmed for a gag, not an alternate scene; but you can tell Buscemi enjoyed it.
Last summer's Super 8 showed the Super 8 movie the kids in the film were working on, but not until after the lengthy credits. Yet many people left during the credits and missed it entirely. They also wasted most of their popcorn.
What are your favorite post-credit scenes?

Healthy Old-Fashioned Peach and Oat Cobbler
Traditional peach cobbler gets a healthful transformation—and improved taste—with whole grain flour and naturally sweet peach nectar. Frozen sliced peaches, available year round and with comparable nutrition to fresh, take much of the work out of grandma's recipe.
- Serves
- Makes 9 servings
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly spray a 9-inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
2. For topping, in a bowl combine flours, 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or two table knives until the flour mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
3. For filling, in a saucepan combine peach nectar, the 1⁄3 cup sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. Bring to boiling over medium-high heat. Add peaches, stirring to coat. Remove from heat and pour into prepared baking dish.
4. Stir milk into topping mixture, stirring just until moistened. Using spoons, drop topping in small mounds onto filling. Sprinkle with natural sugar crystals, if desired.
5. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted just off-center in topping comes out clean.

Belladonna Lily
The Belladonna
Lily Amaryllis belladonna
is a beautiful
flower. It comes from
Africa and thrives in places with similar climates including
and South Australia. The
leaves grow in the winter
and the flowers in
summer. In the Northern
hemisphere they flower around August and south
of the equator in February.
Because the leaves grow in
the wet part of
the year, the plant is drought resistant and will usually grow well
without water, although I have found that extreme dryness during
flowering does affect them.
The bulbs are large and the plant is
usually reproduced from the bulbs.
It can be grown from seed. The
appear after the flowers.
These seem to have a much higher water
content than most seeds.
If left, the survival rate of these seeds is
very low. They need to be
planted fairly soon after being produced.
the bulbs become too crowded they can be replanted. The best time to do
this is probably after the flowers have died down and before the
start to appear.

Those who were so used to brick-and-mortar stores might be a bit uneasy about putting their businesses online. While most of these websites are just complementary storefronts to their actual offline store, they still worry, and the really traditional ones won't ever consider putting up online stores without the brick-and-mortar one.
Tag Archives: Small Business Owners
What if the artwork overshadows the website's message? This is what usually worries small business owners when they use extremely artistic and rather experimental website designs. While hand-drawn images are trendy in shirts and blog sites today, they're not always the right background images to use on a website—unless they do embody the brand's attitude.
When it comes to online marketing, trends play a very big role. For example, when emails were the "in" thing, consumers saw a wide dissemination of electronic newsletters. Five to ten years later, the marketing flavors have changed. From banners and e-newsletters, we now have social networking pages, otherwise known as "Fan Pages" doing what e-newsletters used to do.
If there's anything the online entrepreneur should learn, it's the fact that the Internet is a sharing community before it's a commercial one. People won't waste time downloading a video that's too obviously an advertisement for a product. When they do, it's because the product is well-known and the video is cute or funny.
Whether you're building an online store or maintaining a blog, it's pretty trendy to add a set of social media icons to your website. The most common of them are Facebook, Twitter, Multiply. Sometimes, web designers also add a Flicker icon to link an online album of products or photo samples, in the case of people displaying their skills in photography.
One of the best ways to get your goods out there without paying for any sort of overhead is to make a social networking page for your store or services. The pioneers of social networking who valued the concept of a "sharing community" weren't too comfortable with this idea a few years ago.

The WJCC Scholarship Fund of the Williamsburg Community Foundation is a community-wide effort to recognize the accomplishments of our students as they graduate from Williamsburg-James City County public high schools and support their further educational achievements. Individuals, civic organizations, and companies can sponsor a Named Scholarship by contributing a minimum of $1,000. Non-discriminatory selection criteria may be established by the sponsor. Named scholarships may be given in the name of the donor (individual or business), in honor of a designated individual, or in memory of a designated individual. In addition, individuals who wish to make a gift in any amount may do so by contributing directly to the WJCC Scholarship Fund at the Williamsburg Community Foundation.
The Williamsburg Community Foundation is a collection of gifts from generous local citizens, mostly invested in long-term endowment funds, that will benefit our community forever. Each fund provides grantmaking dollars for community needs. Since 1999, the Foundation has distributed $6.9 million for grants and scholarships combined. Like all community foundations, WCF is overseen by a volunteer board of leading citizens and run by professionals with expertise in knowing our community's needs. The Foundation serves as a philanthropic center where donors may set up their professionally managed personal funds without incurring the expense involved in establishing a private Foundation.

The underlying figure, which strips out mortgage interest payments, is 0.5% short of Chancellor Gordon Brown's 2.5% target.
The Office for National Statistics said the inflation rise largely stemmed from one-off base effects, with the fall in seasonal food prices much less pronounced than a year ago.
It added: 'Prices of fresh fruit and vegetables decreased overall in July by less than last year when the recoveries in supplies led to substantial falls in prices.'
Clothing, footwear and furniture prices also contributed to the rise, with the impact of summer sales much less than last year.
The headline rate, which includes mortgage interest payments, also rose 0.5% to 1.5% - the highest level since last October.
The underlying rate was last higher in April when the figure stood at 2.3%. Since then, economists have been surprised by a 0.5% fall in May's figure and 0.3% in June.
Today's data from the ONS casts doubt over whether the Bank of England will now have room to sanction another interest rate cut to lift the faltering economic recovery.
At the same time, the bank is facing increasing pressure to cut interest rates following a sharp slowdown in the High Street spending boom that has kept the economy afloat for the past year.
Calls for a quarter-point cut when the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee meets early next month came from both business and union leaders, after figures from the British Retail Consortium (BRC) revealed spending growth dipped for the second month in succession in July.
The Bank's base rate has been stuck at its current 38-year low of 4% for nine months. Until the recent global collapse in stock markets, most economists had been betting that the next move would be upwards. However, the consumer slowdown and a sudden fall in manufacturing output in June mean many now believe the economy needs lower borrowing rates to give it a boost.
BRC director-general Bill Moyes said: 'The case for the Bank of England to stimulate demand by a slight reduction in the base rate is appearing stronger.'
TUC General Secretary John Monks said the current historically low level of inflation gave the Bank plenty of room to manoeuvre. 'The Bank should cut rates by a quarter percentage point,' he said.
The BRC figures showed High Street sales grew by 3.8% in July, down from 4% in June and 6.1% a year ago.
British rates are still much higher than the 1.75% rate in America. Tonight the US central bank, the Federal Reserve, meets to discuss the level of interest rates. Although the markets are not expecting a cut, they are hoping for a signal of lower rates in the near future.Reuse content

An osteria (Italian pronunciation: [osteˈria]) in Italy was originally a place serving wine and simple food. Lately, the emphasis has shifted to the food, but menus tend to be short, with an emphasis on local specialities such as pasta, grilled meat or fish, and often served at shared tables. Ideal for a cheap lunch, osterie (the plural in Italian) also cater for after work and evening refreshment. Osterie vary greatly in practice: some only serve drinks and clients are allowed to bring in their own food; some have retained a predominantly male clientele whilst others have reached out to students and young professionals. Some provide music and other entertainment. Similar to osterie are bottiglierie, where customers can take a bottle or flask to be re-filled from a barrel, and enoteche which generally pride themselves on the range and quality of their wine. In Emilia-Romagna are located three of the oldest Italian osterie: "Osteria del Sole" and "Osteria del Cappello" in Bologna, and "Osteria al Brindisi" in Ferrara, established between the 14th and 15th century.[1]
The oldest osteria in Italy[edit]
Osteria del Cappello o Al Cappello Rosso[edit]
Thanks to the historical archives of Bologna, it has been possible to date back to a "Osteria del Cappello" certified from 1375. This osteria could have changed location many times until 1700. In fact the locales were not property of the host, and often the symbol of the inn remained the same even though its position had changed. The actual location of the ostaria dates back to 1652, when host Domenico Simoncini decides to place the inn in Via de' Fusari near Piazza Maggiore.
In 1712 the Bolognese engraver Giuseppe Maria Mitelli included the osteria in the Giuoco nuovo di tutte le osterie che sono in Bologna, with the same logo as nowadays. The sign of the tavern in the game occupies the box #41, followed by the description of the tavern as a place where it is possible to eat "good partridges" finely larded, together with "croutons". The Osteria Del Cappello is the only inn of this old name to be still in activity in Bologna, together with the Osteria del Sole.
In the Florio's 1611 Italian-English dictionary Osteria=Hosteria=An Inn, an hosterie, a house where meat and drink and lodging is to be had for men and horse. Also a tavern.[2]
