An Advanced Portable Production Solution
Together with the included Cubase AI and Cubasis LE software, the UR22mkII audio and MIDI interface is a fully-fledged mobile recording studio. Offering easy and stable connection to PC or Mac computers, the MKII version now adds pro-level recording for iPad with the CC Mode and external power input. The UR22mkII offers total mobility, ultra-solid build quality and incredible sound characteristics for its price class, covering all aspects of recording and production in small studio environments as well as mobile production situations.
Connect To Cubase, Or Directly To Any DAW
UR22mkII is compatible with all audio editing, mastering and music production software that support the ASIO, Core Audio or WDM standards. Installing the driver is very simple, with an assistant to guide you through every step of the process. With installation complete, the UR22mkII now seamlessly integrates into your favourite DAW, putting its flexible I/O options at your disposal.
Cubase owners will benefit from additional features, such as the auto-setup functionality, which enables the complete I/O setup to be handled directly from within Cubase. Your UR22mkII is detected automatically by Cubase and embedded into your production environment.
UR22mkII includes Cubase AI, a lean version of Steinberg's advanced music production system. Based on the same core technologies as Steinberg's highly acclaimed Cubase DAW, the AI version offers a comprehensive feature set for composing, recording, editing and mixing. Run it together with the UR22mkII audio interface and you get a one-stop solution for recording music in studio quality.
With full iPad connectivity via the CC Mode and external power input, the UR22mkII combines with the included Cubasis LE software — a streamlined version of the highly acclaimed Cubasis iOS app — to form a full-on mobile recording and production solution.
The D-PRE: Beyond Precision
The virtues of the Yamaha-designed D-PRE have been sung by industry veterans and trade press alike since the introduction of this class-leading preamp. A sumptuously detailed high-end, immaculate dynamic response and a rich, rounded low-end sound are the hallmarks of this very special preamp. The UR22mkII features two D-PRE preamps, each offering stellar recording quality unmatched in this price class. And to faithfully capture and replay the warm, transparent sound of the D-PRE, the UR22mkII features AD and DA conversion stages with up to 24-bit, 192 kHz resolution.
Compact Without Compromises
With UR22mkII, you're ready for a huge range of recording and production scenarios, even when you're on the move. Record vocals, guitars and other audio equipment with up to two audio channels in pristine 24/192 quality while simultaneously recording MIDI signals.

The UR22mkII turns your iPad into a full-on professional music production platform. Connect to your iPad with CC Mode using either the Camera Connection Kit or Lightning to USB Camera Adapter. The power input socket supplies your UR22mkII with the electrical voltage needed to run professional equipment such as condenser microphones requiring +48 V phantom power by letting you plug in a USB power adapter or a USB battery pack.

This is a fabulous,sturdy, audio interface!The only problem is that I realise how bad some of my other audio devices were,since the sound on the UR22 MK2 is so brilliant!Easy to use,and,even with a simple microphone and line in from a guitar,my daw and levels never sounded better.I've always struggled with levels for vocals and guitar,but they both produce crystal clear sound now.I actually hadn't realise how good the sound on my old Yamaha RM1X was,until I've put it through the UR22.A massive difference,believe me.It's gone from a groovebox with some good sounds to a sonic weapon with pin sharp clarity.It's great to find sound quality this good.There are amp simulators on my daws which sounded too distorted,no matter what I did -yet are now perfect through this.My Roland TB3,which already sounded great,has an extra clear bass tone,rich,fat and bouncy through the UR22.I was previously getting the sound through the TB3's usb cable to my DAW,but this is definitely richer.
Anyway,take it from me,an amateur with loads of midi gear,modules and synths-buy one.Even just starting out you'll save a ton of hassle and money by not buying sub-standard audio gear.I'll probably buy another one myself,and for under a hundred pound it's well worth it.I have an 8 channel mixer,which has a chunky power lead,as well as USB connection,but it can be a hassle to get out and plug in etc,but the UR22 is a lot handier,just the USB straight to PC.
I was a little bit confused downloading the free Cubase software(something to do with the license process) but got that sorted after an hour or so.It's a high level daw,so it's a very good bonus!
I also didn't mention the midi part of the UR22-which works fantastically,routing from analog to analog easily,and also from my daw to other gear...which not all my interfaces have done.
Overall,an easy and solid 10/10.
Regular punter,happy to take time to write this review for great piece of equipment.
|Great so far! It is exactly suited to my needs, I appreciate the expert advice from Richard to find the right product for me.

A very good product if you need to record a vocal mic, instrument and perhaps a MIDI keyboard simultaneously to a computer to record. USB powered so no extra power supply needed when connected to a computer with a suitably powered USB socket. Can also be used with an iPad, but needs to be powered in such circumstances. USB power can be connected via a micro-USB socket, or if using the Lightning- USB Camera connector on an iPad, the power can be connected to the lightning connector on that.
Microphone gain is fairly low - for recording spoken voice seems to need to be at or close to maximum gain, but if used with a singer then probably the dynamic range would require a lower setting.
Comes with licence codes for Cubase AI which provides decent digital audio workstation capability (although is quite a steep learning curve). Will work with other DAW software as well (at least on my Mac). Also unlocks a version of Cubasis for the iPAD which also provides recording capability. With a portable battery power source provides a completely portable recording capability.
Device is quite heavy, but on the other hand is solidly built with a metal enclosure that is likely to protect against knocks and bangs.

Weight gain is a slow an steady process. Healthy muscle gain is what is required. A balanced diet will promote muscle and over all development. In case of non-vegetarians, there are lots of option to select from. For pure vegetarians there are many combinations of foods that promote muscle growth. I do not favour protein supplements unless you are a sports person. Pulses, Soya, cruciferous vegetables, dairy products and whole cereals promote muscle gain. Along side proper exercise and a healthy lifestyle aids in overall developmemt. For tailor made diet plan feel free to contact me or register at http://ghkritediet.zest.md

David Cameron has pledged £150m a year in primary school sport funding guaranteed until 2020 if the Conservatives are re-elected, to secure the Olympic and Paralympic legacy.
A two-year dedicated English primary school PE fund was announced in March and began in September 2013, but there has been uncertainty in schools over whether the funding will stop after the election, and some headteachers have been reluctant to take up the funding this year or undertake any capital investment.
Figures show that almost a third of school-age children in England are overweight and 14-20% are obese. An Ofsted report last year said a third of primary schools were failing to provide effective PE for pupils.
Downing Street hopes the election-contingent guarantee will reassure headteachers that the cash will keep coming after 2015, and so start hiring more specialist sports teachers. It was stressed that it was not a coalition commitment but one being made by Cameron.
The guarantee suggests the Tories would set aside £750m for school sport across a five-year parliament. The money is supposed to go directly to primary school headteachers so they can decide how best to use it to provide sporting activities for pupils.
Downing Street claims that a typical primary school with 250 pupils this year is receiving £9,250, the equivalent of around two days a week of a primary teacher or coach's time – enough to make sure every pupil in the school can do sport with a specialist.
Cameron said: "Sport is so important because it encourages children to be active, lead a healthy lifestyle, make friends and, of course, have fun. But quality school sport has benefits that spread right across the curriculum and beyond – it develops confidence and a sense of achievement, it teaches young people how to rise to a challenge, and nurtures the character and skills that will help them get on and succeed in life.
"It's an important part of our long-term plan to deliver the best schools and skills for young people. That is why I am committing to guarantee the primary school sports funding until 2020."
Downing Street assembled an array of sports figures to welcome his commitment. The double Olympic champion distance runner Mo Farah said: "School sport is massively important for children and so it is good news to hear there will now be funding available over the long term. The help I got at school was a key part of how I got to where I am today and so it can make a big difference."
The prime minister's Olympic and Paralympic legacy ambassador, Lord Coe, said: "I am delighted that the prime minister has made this commitment to continue to invest in school sport until 2020. We wanted to use London 2012 to inspire a generation to choose sport and ensuring that children get a positive and engaging experience in primary school of physical education and sport is key to this. A long-term commitment to continue this funding can only help to achieve this."

The Ongoing Search for Fungicide Effects on Blue Orchard Bees
Male and female blue orchard bees.
Blue orchard bees were trained in a plastic cage with
a feeder modified from a syringe. Odors were applied
to a filter paper collar which was attached with hot glue.
The cage had a mesh lid that facilitated air flow
(not shown)
An individual bee entered the testing arena from a glass
vial attached to the side. The bee had 10 min to choose
between two water-filled feeders that were inserted
through opposite sides of the arena, equally distant
from the entrance. One feeder was scented with
geraniol, and the other was scented with PAA.
Blue orchard bees (Osmia lignaria), like other mason bees, nest in pre-existing cavities (e.g., hollow berry canes or holes left behind by wood boring beetles). Unlike honey bees and bumble bees, blue orchard bees are solitary, meaning that they do not live in a hive, and each female creates her own nests and lays eggs. They are one of about 900 species of bees that are native to Utah, most of which are solitary (Cane and Kervin, 2011).
Concern over declining populations of honey bees and other pollinators has led to increased use of blue orchard bees as a managed pollinator of tree fruits. As use of blue orchard bees has increased, so have reports that blue orchard bee nesting slows down, pauses, or ceases altogether following fungicide treatments. Derek Artz, a researcher at the USDA-ARS Bee Biology and Systematics Laboratory in Logan, Utah, recently observed the disruption of nesting behavior after fungicide sprays in field cages in California and soon will publish his findings. Previous research found only one of the five fungicides tested, captan, was lethal to blue orchard bees (Ladurner et al., 2005). However, despite lack of evidence for fungicides resulting in bee fatalities, the possibility remains that fungicides may cause other physiological and behavioral effects in blue orchard bees.
As part of an ongoing collaboration with Dr. Theresa Pitts-Singer (USDA-ARS), my lab has been determining if fungicides affect the ability of blue orchard bees (Osmia lignaria) to learn olfactory cues encountered during foraging. Olfactory cues are important for bee navigation, nest selection, foraging, and a variety of other bee activities. If fungicides disrupt blue orchard bees' ability to learn or remember olfactory cues that they encounter during normal activities, bees may become confused and disoriented, possibly hindering their ability to create and find a nest, or find food. If the bees are not successful in these activities, they are also not going to be successfully pollinating the crops that we depend on for food.
The simple experiment is testing the fungicides Rally, Rubigan, Procure, and Pristine by training bees to associate a particular odor with a sugar reward. We assume that they will have learned to choose the odor that was always associated with sugar. If a fungicide affects blue orchard bee learning, it is expected that fungicide-fed bees will not choose the sugar-associated odor as often as bees that were never given that fungicide.
Proportion of trained female and male fungicide-fed and control blue orchard bees that, when given a choice between two water-filled scented feeders , chose the odor that was previously associated with sugar. An odor pair designation of 'gp' indicates that geraniol was associated with the sugar-filled feeder and PAA was associated with the water-filled feeder. An odor pair designation of 'pg' indicates that PAA was associated with the sugar-filled feeder and geraniol was associated with the water-filled feeder. No fungicide-fed group was significantly different from its corresponding control group.
Proportion of trained female and male fungicide-fed and control blue orchard bees that, when given a choice between two water-filled scented feeders , chose the odor that was previously associated with sugar. An odor pair designation of 'gp' indicates that geraniol was associated with the sugar-filled feeder and PAA was associated with the water-filled feeder. An odor pair designation of 'pg' indicates that PAA was associated with the sugar-filled feeder and geraniol was associated with the water-filled feeder. No fungicide-fed group was significantly different from its corresponding control group.
Upon emerging from their cocoons, bees are fed sugar water laced with a known amount of one of the fungicides for a full day. The feeder containing the sugar water is scented with either geraniol or phenylacetaldehyde (PAA), both of which are components of common floral aromas. On day two, they are fed water that contains fungicide, but not sugar, from a feeder scented with the odor that they didn't experience on day one. The swapping of the scented sugar-fungicide feeder and scented water-fungicide feeder occurs over two more days, for a total of four days of exposure to the odors and the fungicide. On the fifth day, each bee is placed in a testing arena and allowed to choose between the sugar-associated odor and the water-associated odor. Their choices are then compared to the choices of a set of bees that went through the exact same procedure, but were never fed a fungicide.
In spring of 2011, a total of 380 fungicide-fed blue orchard bees and 449 bees not fed fungicides, both males and females, were tested in this manner. Although a small proportion of fungicide-fed bees did seem less likely to choose between the two scents than bees that were not fed fungicides, thus far there has not been significant evidence that fungicide ingestion affects bees' ability to learn the odors. This is important to growers and others who wish to combat powdery mildew and other fungal diseases without decreasing pollinator efficiency and vitality.
This research is ongoing. Additional bees will be tested for learning effects in spring of 2012, and the effects of fungicides on bee memory will also be tested. Because fungicides are usually used with adjuvants such as stickers or spreaders, and because the effects of adjuvants on bees have not been rigorously tested, an experiment testing the synergistic effect of fungicide/adjuvant mixtures on blue orchard bee learning and memory is also being initiated in spring 2012.

The suit, filed in US District Court in Manhattan, claims Stewart and other executives sold 5.3 million shares of MSO worth about $80m (£55m) because they knew she would be investigated on suspicion of insider trading in the shares of ImClone and that it would hurt MSO's share price.
Since early June, when news surfaced that Stewart had sold shares in ImClone the day before it disclosed its new cancer drug had been rejected by US regulators, MSO shares have dropped 55%. News of the lawsuit sent the shares falling 61 cents to $8.30 today.
Stewart claims she had no inside knowledge of the government decision surrounding ImClone.
The suit seeks class-action status for any investor who brought shares of MSO from 8 January to 24 July. A judge will decide whether the suit has enough merit to proceed as a class action, when one group can sue on behalf of many. Such litigation is a nightmare for companies because it is usually expensive to defend.

Author has written 4 stories for Bionicle, Hellboy, and Transformers/Beast Wars.
I'm currently a college student living in Oklahoma. I'm going to school to get my BS in Organismis Biology and then I'll transfer to medical school on my path to becoming a cardiologist. I have an AA in Liberal Arts and whenever I find free time I write stories and post them here.
Obviously I don't have alot of free time since it's taken me almost two and a half years to finish my Hellboy story, A New Agent, and I've pretty much have abandoned my Bionicle fic after falling out of love with it. I try to update and write when I can because I know their are people out there who do actually enjoy the drivvle I write and I love each and every single one of them for it because they're the ones who will read my books should I ever find time to get published (let alone write something decent and original and actually finish it).
So that's me, in about two paragraphs. Enjoy.

If BBL surgery isn't right for me, what is? (Photo)
I walk everyday eat healthy nothing works
Doctor Answers 4
BBL candidate?
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately the photo provided doesn´t show much to give you a proper assessment, an in person consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon would be the best option to dtermine whether you´re a good candidate or not. That said, when planning a Brazilian butt lift, patients can look forward to a double benefit: reducing areas of unwanted fat while gaining a perkier, rounded posterior. Each procedure must be planned according to the individual needs of patients, harvesting fat from target areas of the torso, thighs or knees and transferring it to create smooth, attractive contours optimized for each person. Hope this helps.
Web reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zk21WuHpvUw
You would have to be seen in person to determine whether or not you are a candidate. The photo is not very helpful to determine this. Best of luck!
Web reference: https://www.stevenwallachmd.com/body-procedures/buttock-augmentation/
If BBL surgery isn't right for me, what is?
I cannot give you specific advice as I have no idea what your goals are and can only see your abdomen from the photo that you posted. From just looking at your abdomen, it appears that you will have loose excess skin with just liposuction alone, so you might want to consider a tummy tuck or combining a tummy tuck with a BBL.

I appreciate your question. I have done many Brazilian Butt lift procedures and specialize in body contouring. The amount of enhancement possible depends on how much fat can be harvested from your body. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck!

California Burrowing Owl Survey
Expand Messages
- I learned of this through owlpages.com and thought people on this
group might be interested.
Maggie Rufo
Novato, CA
Hungry Owl Project
Copied from http://www.birdpop.org/burrowing.htm
(This page is currently under development; please check back soon for
additional information)
The Burrowing Owl, a California Species of Special Concern, is
declining across much of the state, presumably in response to loss of
habitat to urban development, ground squirrel control efforts, and
intensive agriculture practices. In the early 1990's, The Institute
for Bird Populations (IBP) coordinated a state-wide, volunteer-based
survey to assess Burrowing Owl distribution and abundance throughout
the entire breeding range of the species in California west of the
Great Basin and desert areas. With the help of numerous dedicated
volunteers and volunteer coordinators working primarily through
Audubon Society chapters and other birding groups, we were able to
census over 700 5km by 5km survey blocks throughout the state, and to
provide regional and statewide population estimates. The information
we gathered has been an important resource for Burrowing Owl
conservation efforts in California, and has been widely used and
cited by government agencies and conservation-oriented non-
governmental organizations.
We are currently gearing up to coordinate another statewide Burrowing
Owl survey, beginning in spring 2006. Thirteen years after the
completion of our first statewide survey, this two-year effort comes
at a critical juncture, when the State and other stakeholders badly
need updated information for use in formulating a comprehensive
statewide conservation strategy to safeguard the species across its
range in California. Conducting another statewide survey will enable
us to address the following questions:
a) Where specifically are the state's Burrowing Owls today? Up-to-
date information on the locations of breeding pairs is critical for
identifying important stakeholders, and carefully targeting future
conservation efforts toward the places where they will do the most
b) What is the status of Burrowing Owl populations in the Great Basin
and desert regions of the state, areas that were not included in our
early 1990s census? What fraction of the current statewide population
resides in these areas? This information will provide a more complete
assessment of the current status of the species in the state, and
also provide a baseline for assessing future change in the Great
Basin and desert regions.
c) How has the statewide population changed since 1993? How has the
statewide distribution of the species changed, and what have been the
trajectories of the various sub-populations in the state's
constituent regions?
We have previously delineated the Burrowing Owl's California range
into 11 distinct geographic regions, and then subdivided each region
into 5-km by 5-km census blocks. We will select a random sampling of
census blocks within each region, and then augment the sample with
any additional blocks in the region that are known by local experts
to host breeding Burrowing Owls, but were not selected as part of the
random sample. We will then provide local volunteer coordinators with
maps of selected blocks, data forms, detailed instructions, and other
survey materials. The coordinators will assign census blocks to local
volunteers, who will conduct the surveys.
Surveying a block will involve identifying all patches if suitable
habitat within the block, and then thoroughly searching those patches
for Burrowing Owls. The entire area of all the patches needs to be
searched between dawn and 10am or between 4pm and dusk, when the owls
are most active. Some blocks will need to be visited multiple times
to achieve this goal. Surveyors will scan the area for owls, and plot
the locations of any detections on their maps. For each detection
location, observers will also provide a count of all owls seen
(identified to age and sex, if possible), an estimate of the number
of breeding pairs, and standardized habitat information. Prior to the
field season, surveyors will be provided with detailed instructions,
as well as the opportunity to attend a training session with IBP
Researchers at IBP will then consolidate and analyze the data, and
disseminate results as widely as we can. By providing our survey
results to state policymakers, IBP and all the volunteers who make
this survey possible can contribute greatly to the development of an
informed, up-to-date statewide conservation plan that we hope will
safeguard breeding populations of Burrowing Owls throughout

Survey regions 8-11
The statewide Burrowing Owl survey provides a rare opportunity for
individuals or organizations to make an important contribution to
science and conservation. Whether you are a professional biologist, a
seasoned birder, or simply a Burrowing Owl admirer, we urgently need
your participation in one or more of the following ways:
-volunteer to coordinate other surveyors in your county or area of
interest. We are looking for at least one person in each county
within the species' breeding range to help us recruit and organize
other volunteers.
-volunteer to census one or more 5-km by 5-km blocks in spring 2006.
We need dozens of surveyors, up and down the state, to census one or
more blocks near their homes, or perhaps farther afield.
-provide us with information on the locations of Burrowing Owl
breeding sites in your county or area of interest. We need local
experts to consolidate and summarize local knowledge of Burrowing Owl
breeding locations in each county or area of interest.
***If you are interested in any of these volunteer opportunities,
please contact Bob Wilkerson or Rodney Siegel as soon as possible at
owl@... or 415-663-2051.***

The Sky is Always Red
Sometimes it is hard to stay true to yourself because of the people around us and who they are and who they expect us to be in this society. Sometimes it is hard to be who you really want to be because you know that some people won't accept you if you do those things. So, naturally, you do everything you can to fit in and you work hard to become someone that you are not.
Before I moved away, Peter made me swear to him that I wouldn't change. Of course I thought that this was just silly talk and why the heck would I change anyways? Peter smiled and said that he just wanted for me to stay the same.
Then, the very next day, I left.
It felt weird to be leaving. I had never moved before and wasn't sure if I liked the idea of moving to a place far away from everyone I knew and liked. I knew I would not be seeing many of my friends every again because we were going so far away. I didn't want to go, but my parents insisted that where we were going would "have a better sense of community" and "the house would be bigger" and all that.
Right before I left, I gave Peter a hug and told him that I would send him letters every week. But I think deep down we both knew that that would never last. Then my parents told me that it was time to go so I got in the car and we drove away.

Drunk Driving Car Crash Victims
After a car crash, it's hard to keep your composure, typically you'll feel scared, helpless and even angry, especially if the one who is to blame was intoxicated. In this event, it's known that the intoxicated driver could face the law, but this doesn't change the fact that you need help recovering your compensation for injuries, any lost salaries, not to mention the expensive medical bills that are to come. A car crash lawyer in Escondido can help you file this type of civil action for compensation.
What are the differences between Criminal and Civil Actions in the case of a Drunk Driving Accident?
Criminal actions can be faced by an intoxicated driver for operating an automobile. Criminal actions are such penalties like fines and time in jail. However, this has nothing to do with the victims involved in the accident. A civil action must be filed in order for you to receive compensation.
Evidence can be used in these cases, such as the motorist's BAC or blood alcohol content which should be recorded during a criminal investigation for your civil action. If the driver's blood alcohol limit was above the legal limit at the time of the accident, then we know that the driver was unfit to drive and was not being responsible on the road.
Here is an overview of the legal limit for blood alcohol content in California:
- Commercial driver: .04 percent
- Non-commercial drivers over the age of 21: .08 percent
- Drivers under the age of 21: .02 percent
Civil Action Against a Drunk Driver: How to Pursue it
To have the opportunity to recover damages for injuries that have happened to you or your loved ones, you will need to pursue a civil action lawsuit against the person who has cause the accident. In the event of DUI case, you have to prove:
- The driver was drunk and his blood alcohol content
- He was an unsafe driver and negligent on the road due to his intoxication
- The carelessness of the driver caused the accident
- Damages or injuries occurred
If these elements are proven to be true, you have the possibility to benefit your lost pay and medical expenses and you may even have the chance to gain punitive damages. In the case of punitive damages, courts in California can do this to punish someone for their wrongdoing. Under these circumstances, such damages could be appropriate.
Below are more damages that can be recovered by an injured party after a DUI-related accident.
- Medical expenditures – past and future
- Lost salaries
- Reduced grossing capacity
- Property destruction
- Physical therapy/other types
- Other damages such as pain and suffering
Call Ryan Sargent today at 855-209-3997, if you have been in an automobile accident with an intoxicated driver to find out what to do about your rights.

Gohan trudged down the halls of Orange Star High, wondering what he had ever done to be treated so cruelly.
Sharpner just wouldn't give up. He was so insistent about dating his mom, and thus inserting himself as the father figure in the demi-saiyan's life, that he had woken the poor boy up at the horrendous hour of 4 AM.
Apparently, the jock thought it was up to him to be the man around the house and make sure the Son boy got to school on time; not to mention himself, though he could've cared less if he went to school or not. Somehow, someway, Sharpner had found a way to get inside his house and promptly forced him out of his bed. Upon the announcement of the jock taking him to school, Gohan had to suppress the urge to throw him out to window. Even though he had been rudely awoken, the manners Chichi had force fed him all of his life refused to let him get rid of the blond menace. On top of that, as he got dressed, Gohan realized there was no way he could use his usually means of going to school with Sharpner around. A floating orange cloud would be too strange, even for the king of weirdness; not to mention there was the most likely possibility of the blond not being able to ride the cloud.
With all those factors added together, Gohan found himself taking the long way to school via Sharpner's capsule car. There was just no justice in this cruel world, especially for half-saiyan teenagers.
And at the moment, all Gohan wanted to do was just collapse to the floor and get the precious sleep he had been denied. It would've been so worth it too, until he ran into Videl. The girl had noticed his zombie-like state and had come to investigate the matter. "What's wrong with you?"
Gohan eyed the girl for a moment before saying "Sharpner…drove me…woke me up…must…resist…urge…to kill…"
The Satan girl blinked her eyes. Who would've ever thought the innocently-minded Gohan would have such murderous thoughts? That was something she usually would've thought of.
Today was going to be very interesting.
And speaking of interesting, here came the man of all the Son boy's problems. "There you are, son! I've been looking all over for you!" Walking up to Gohan, Sharpner rested one of his arms on the boy's shoulders. "Now I know I made you skip breakfast but think of it this way; I'm preparing you for life. You won't always have the luxuries your mother and I provide for you."
Turning his head then, the blond set his attention on the Satan girl. "And don't think I forgot about you, babe. I have to tend to some fatherly matters right now but we can meet up again later. We have so much to catch up on."
Videl's hands balled into fists. Seriously, was this guy becoming more and more annoying with each passing day? What would it take to get it through his thick skull that anyone of the female gender had nothing but homicidal feelings towards him? Did he have to be killed just to get that point across?
Well, if that's what it took, Videl would be damned if anyone took that satisfaction away from her.
Before she could act though, Gohan stepped away from Sharpner, removing the boy's arm from his shoulders. "Sharpner, I'm just not in the mood to deal with you right now. Just leave me alone, alright?"
Sharpner didn't look the least bit put back. "They grow up so fast."
That caused Videl to look at the blond weirdly. "What in the world are you talking about?"
Before the jock could answer though, Videl's watch communicator went off. "Videl! We have a situation at the construction site downtown! A man's been shouting at the top of his lungs about how bad his life is. We think he's a jumper."
The Satan girl immediately answered the call. "Don't worry Chief, I'm on my way." Spinning on her heels, she raced down the hall towards the staircase leading up to the roof.
As Sharpner watched the girl disappear into the stairwell, he failed to notice the sudden disappearance of his other friend.
A man wanting to commit suicide was a terrible thing, yet Gohan couldn't help but feel grateful. He had been having a bad morning up to this point, so anything that could get his mind off of it was gladly welcomed. Besides, perhaps saving someone's life would put him in a better mood.
The Son boy flew towards the location of the construction site the Police Chief had mentioned as quickly as he could. It wasn't too hard to find considering the street in front of the building was covered with police cars and emergency vehicles. Close by was Videl's jet copter, signifying that the Satan girl was here as well.
Well, time to get to work.
Landing on the building across the street from the construction site, the demi-saiyan soon located where the jumper was. The man appeared to be shouting down to the cops below about…something; he couldn't quite hear what exactly. Might have something to do with his tired state.
Suddenly, Gohan noticed some movement behind the man. Looking closer, the Son boy saw Videl approaching the man from behind, trying to sneak up on him and prevent his desperate action.
However, the man seemed to know what the Satan girl was up to as he swung around to face her. Some more words were shouted from his mouth, but since he had his back to the hero-disguised saiyan, it was hard to hear exactly what.
Then before Videl could stop him, the man leapt from the building.
Alarms went off in Gohan's head as he launched himself towards the falling man. What in the world was he thinking?! Was he insane?!
Fortunately, the Son boy reached the jumper before he could fall too far, catching him in his arms bridal style. "I got you sir!" he declared as he deepened his voice.
What happened next completely took the demi-saiyan by surprised. "It's about time you showed up!" the jumper proclaimed. "I've been waiting to meet you for a looooong time."
"Wh-what are you talking about?" Gohan stammered.
Instead, the man gave the boy the once over before cuddling into his body. "Don't worry your pretty little head off. I'd let you save me any day."
Not liking what he was hearing, Gohan immediately flew towards the closest floor of the under-construction building. Upon setting the man down, he soon discovered that the jumper had other plans. Though his feet were now on the ground, the man had wrapped his arms around the Son boy's torso. "Mmmm, you're warm," he said in a husky voice.
"Could you please let me go, sir?" Gohan said uncomfortably.
"You're just too much, Mr. Saiyaman."
Okay, this was getting really weird. As gently as he could, he pushed the man away from him. Upon seeing his "admirer" making another attempt to hug him, Gohan leapt back. "Please sir, cease and desist!"
The next thing Gohan knew, the man began chasing him around the floor, trying to get his hands on him. What was with this guy?! Couldn't he see how uncomfortable he was making him?
It was this sight of the demi-saiyan fleeing from the persistent man that Videl walked in on, slightly taken back. The Satan girl nearly broke out laughing when she realized the man intent on making Saiyaman his life partner.
You didn't see this everyday.
Suddenly, Videl felt the caped hero behind her, trying to use her as an obstacle between him and his admirer. "Miss Videl, please! You've got to help me!" he pleaded.
"Help you?" the Satan girl said, clearly amused. "I thought you were the Great Saiyaman. Can't you handle something like this with ease?"
"I've never been in a situation like this!" the hero replied panicked. "Please, I'll do anything! Just help me!"
A sly grin crossed the Satan girl's face. "Anything?"
"Yes, anything!"
"And if I said I wanted you to show me who you were?"
There was a pause from the man. "Wouldn't you want something else?"
Videl tilted her head up to look at the ceiling, pretending to think. "Ya know, I'm starting to think you and your admirer make a lovely couple."
Desperation enveloped the hero instantly. "Okay, okay! Just make him go away!"
A wicked grin spread over the Satan girl's face. "So we have a deal?"
"Yes! Deal! Now help!"
This was absolutely perfect! The daughter of Satan was mere moments from finally unmasking this thorn in her side and all she had to do was drive a gay man away from the man. Unfortunately, that was where Videl hit her first obstacle. How was she gonna get rid of this guy? It wasn't as if he was bothering her or committing any crimes; though she could use disturbing the peace because of his false suicide attempt. That would work for a short amount of time but what would stop this man from threatening suicide again? The short term prospects were very tempting but her loyalty to maintaining harmony within Satan City kept her from acting on it. She needed a long term solution.
So what would drive a gay man away? Well, they weren't interested in woman, that was for sure. It'd be stupid to try and pass Saiyaman off as one, especially since he was obviously a guy. Perhaps she should tell the guy that Saiyaman was her boyfriend or something. Videl immediately trashed that idea. There was no way she would be romantically linked to a guy who wore a trash can on his head. Unfortunately, that was the only avenue that showed the most promise.
Perhaps she didn't need to declare a relationship with Saiyaman. It was possible if she and him had some display of a relationship that would be enough to accomplish her task. Besides, she could shoot down any possibility of further attachment later. Though not the best idea around, it would have to do.
With that in mind, Videl spun around, facing a surprised Saiyaman. Before he could react, the Satan girl grabbed the collar of his green gi shirt and pulled him down towards her. The next thing the hero or gay man knew, Videl had her lips pressed onto Saiyaman's, stunning both of them, though for different reasons.
A few moments later, Videl broke the kiss and looked towards the gay man, who looked as if he were on the verge of tears. "It…it can't be!" the man gasped. "It's just not fair! Why do all the cute ones have to be taken?!"
A smirk grew on Videl's face. Her ploy had worked like a charm. Now it was time to collect on the hero's promise to her.
"Alright Saiyaman, its time we had a talk," the Satan girl declared as she grabbed the still dazed hero and pulled him away from the emotionally shattered gay man; all three oblivious to the helicopter hovering across the street.
Chichi stared at the TV set shocked. There, on the screen, was her little boy in his Saiyaguy costume, kissing that hussy that had showed up during the weekend. Her son…was kissing a girl…on TV.
She knew it! That girl just wanted to get into her son's pants! She was just like all of those city tramps with their lusty motives. There was no way she was gonna let that hussy destroy the innocents of her oldest child; nuh uh, no way. She'd be dead and buried before she would let that happen!
That was when the voice of the reporter catching the scene made himself known. "Well, that's young love for ya. I'm sure the citizens of Satan City will approve of this little romance between the Great Saiyaman and Satan City's own Videl Satan. As everyone knows, Videl is the daughter of Hercule Satan, the man who defeated Cell. Phone calls have been made to Satan Manor but as of yet, there have been no replies.
Chichi just stared at the screen, her anger draining out of her. Satan? That girl was the daughter of that fraud that got rich off of her son's achievement?
And if that was the case, that meant this Videl girl was also rich. Wheels began turning inside the mother's head. Perhaps she needed to stop by her son's school again…
With the crisis of the jumper thankfully over, Gohan found himself in a completely new predicament. After receiving a kiss from the girl he thought would rather kill him with an ice pick, the demi-saiyan now found himself alone with her. He had made a deal with the devil girl and she wanted to collect.
"Well, I've held my end of the bargain," the Satan girl said, "now it's your turn. Take off the helmet, Saiyaman."
To say the boy was nervous would be quite the understatement. "A-are you sure you wouldn't want anything else? I'm sure we can make a much better arrangement."
"Zip it, Saiyaman. You said you'd do anything for my help and I want you to show me who you are. Now get to it before I remove your lungs and use them as footballs."
Gohan sighed. There was no way out of this. Sure, he could've flown away but it was only a matter of time before the Satan girl would hunt him down again and demand to know his identity. He got the feeling though, she'd be a lot less nice about her asking if he did that.
Moving his hands to his head, the Son boy gripped his helmet and slid it off.
For a moment, Videl just stared at his face. A second later, the girl shouted out "I knew it! I just knew you were Saiyaman!" Pumping a fist into the air, Videl took on the look of a kid that just found out what she was getting for Christmas.
Gohan just sighed again. Well, his secret was out. He was completely at the Satan girl's mercy as to what she'd do with this knowledge. Would she keep it to herself? Hold a press conference to announce his identity to the world? Something even more sinister?
What Videl eventually did caught him off guard. Walking up to him, the Satan girl patted his check with his hand, a grin on her face. "Cheer up! I would've found out sooner or later."
Gohan just nodded his head, not even trusting himself to make a verbal reply.
Still looking at him with her grin, the Satan girl said "You know, we should probably head back to school. We've already missed first period."
The Son boy let out a cry of despair. "I completely forgot about school! My mom's gonna kill me if she finds out I wasn't in class!"
Videl shook her head in amusement. "Tell ya what Gohan; ride with me in my jet copter and I'll make an excuse for you. Probably something with Sharpner bugging you."
Gohan blinked at the girl, surprised. "You'd do that?"
"Sure, it's the least I can do for you since you have been helping out."
"Gee, thanks."
However, despite the generous offer from the Satan girl, Gohan got an uneasy feeling that he was about to be making more concessions to the girl. Knowing his luck, she'd find some way to get flying lessons out of him.
This day just couldn't get any better. Not only had Videl finally been able to confirm her suspicions that Son Gohan and the Great Saiyaman were one and the same, but now she could add flying lessons from the boy for helping him out with his tardiness. The guy just couldn't stop thanking her for helping him out, he actually wanted to repay her in some way.
Yet another opening the Satan girl used to her advantage.
Now that she was knew that flight was possible, without aid from machines, she'd be flying high in the sky in no time! Boy, wouldn't her dad be surprised when she showed him her new ability!
Unfortunately, the two teens ran into the last person either of them wanted to see at the moment. Standing in front of the school was Sharpner, who was approaching the jet copter as if he were a man on a mission.
As Videl got out of the copter, along with Gohan after he had changed his clothes, the Satan girl could feel her temper rising. It always did that when she wasn't in the mood to deal with the annoying blond jock.
"Videl! I was so worried about you!" the blond exclaimed as he held out his arms in an attempt to hug her. In response, Videl ducked the hug and walked towards the front door of the school, leaving Sharpner to wonder where the girl had gone as she wasn't in his loving arms.
Gohan soon appeared next to her as they approached the school. Neither one talking as they left their "friend" behind. Truthfully, they had had enough of the guy for the day and it would be too soon if they heard from him again.
Yet, fate would throw another obstacle in their way; this time in the form of Son Chichi. However, unlike the last time Videl had met the woman, the Son mother seemed more remorseful.
Seeing her son with the Satan girl, Chichi prepared herself for what she was about to do. "Hello," she greeted.
Videl didn't respond as Gohan beat her to the punch. "Mom? What are you doing here?"
Taking a deep breath, the Son woman said to Gohan "I've had a bit of time to think about what happened yesterday and I just feel horrible with the way I treated your lady friend." Looking to Videl, she continued "I'd like to apologize for my actions."
The Satan girl's eyes blinked. O…kay…this was weird. She had been expecting more of a violent rampage instead of an apology. "Umm…thanks, I guess. Apology accepted."
Chichi smiled warmly. "Would you like to stop by the house this weekend? Spend some time with the family."
Suddenly, Sharpner made his presence known. "That sounds like a great idea! Me and the boys can bond while you ladies can cook me dinner. We'd be like a family!"
Simultaneously, large veins began throbbing on the dark headed women's heads. If that boy said one more things, just one insignificant word, he was gonna pay.
"Then the three of us can get friendlier in the bedroom, if you know what I mean."
The students of Orange Star High just stared into the sky. They had seen some strange things in their time but this one had to take the cake.
Hanging from the flagpole was a beaten Sharpner. Bruises and trickles of blood covered his body, or at least the parts the students could see of him. There was no doubt that who ever had beaten him up had done some damage to his covered body parts.
Yet the strangest thing wasn't that he was beaten up or even up on a flag pole. It was how he hanging from the pole. Sharpner hung five feet from the very top of the flagpole, leaning forward as overstretched underwear emerged from his pants. The waistband of his briefs was wrapped around the top of the pole. Many people couldn't help but hold their backsides as they imagined how painful the wedgie the jock was receiving was.
As more and more students stared at the scene, one of the teens said "Wow, I never knew Sharpner wore bunny rabbit underwear."
To STD: An amusing story you say? I guess you need to show me the way to it. Is it already on ffn?
To Sigfried Wild: A crazy and insane story with some logical flow too! A bleeding Gohan is a funny Gohan after all.
And this is the end of Come To Daddy. A bit short to my usual work but that just how everything was planned. There was a very nice turn out for this fic and that just puts a smile on my face. Thanks to all who reviewed this story. You make writing stories worthwhile.
It may be anothe long while before you see my pretty name again. Have to think of some sort of fic that would be worth ya'lls time. If readers can't enjoy a story, then there's not much point in writing it. Thanks again!

Book DescriptionPoet Daisy Young believes that when life hands you lemons, eat chocolate and get on with it, but no amount of Whitman Samplers gets her mind off her drowned fiancé - until she flees from Nashville to a small town in East Tennessee's mountains and becomes best friends with Luke Strann.
The last thing she's looking for is love, and certainly not with Luke, who's as opposite from Brody as Fleetwood Mac is from Prince. Still, he's a poet, and she's been itching to know someone who'll read her poetry. When their physical attraction can't be denied, their relationship transforms into a "no promises, no demands" love affair.
It's easy for Daisy to accept. After all, memories of her fiancé rule her heart, and according to Luke's Elvis-loving, Harley-riding friend, Raleigh, Luke has a back door woman named Allison. But the more fun she has with Luke—hiking mountains, shooting fireworks, meeting a mysterious, prophetic woman in a red satin dress—the more frustrated she is with their uncertain future.
She calls it quits. Her year-long lease is up. Should she give up hope and return to her family in Nashville?
Then a near-fatal accident brings about the truth of Luke's attraction to Allison, and Daisy must make the decision of her life.

The major averages battled back from early weakness and are trading mixed late Tuesday. The table was set for morning losses after data showed the US economy growing at a 2.8 percent annual rate in the third quarter, which was revised down from an initial reading of 3.4 percent. The number was in-line with economist estimates, but the data also showed consumer spending increasing 2.9 percent and less than the 3.4 percent initially reported. A wider trade deficit and less business investment were also responsible for the lower GDP number.
Stock index futures slipped in pre-market action on the poor GDP print, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average opened lower when the opening bell sounded on Wall Street. The Dow remained in the red through midday, even after a report on consumer confidence surprised to the upside. According to the Conference Board's Index, confidence rose to 49.5 in November, up from 48.7 in October and better than the 47.5 economists had expected.
Since midday, market action has been choppy, but the major averages have moved off session lows. With an hour left to trade, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 4 points, but the S&P 500 is up 1.00. The CBOE Volatility Index (.VIX) is down .79 to 20.37 and now eyeing the 20 "psyche" level. Meanwhile, options activity is slowing ahead of the holiday. Approximately 3.72 million puts and 4.96 million calls traded so far (a ratio of .75, compared to a 22-day average of .82.)
Bullish Flow
GE (NYSE:GE) is up a dime to $16.12 after JP Morgan said that, after meeting with GE's CFO, shares look attractive. One option strategist appears to agree. About 10 minutes ago, an order for 131,500 GE Jan11 22.5 calls was executed on the ISE for 76 per contract. It was an opening customer buyer, according to ISEE data, and could potentially create the largest open interest in GE options. Existing open interest is 24.2K.
Jazz Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:JAZZ) saw a spike beginning about 30 minutes ago and is up 96 cents to $8.04 in active trading late Tuesday. Options activity is running 10X the average daily amid increasing interest in Dec 7.5 and 10 calls, with 1949 and 1035 contracts traded, respectively, and about three quarters traded ask-side. No headlines yet.
Bearish Flow
Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU) is down 2 cents to $7.50 and the Dec 6 - 7 put spread trades 25000X on ISE. Looks like a non-customer or firm buyer paying 18 cents to open a new position. No news on the chipmaker today. Earnings expected around Dec 23 and probably after the December expiration.
Implied Volatility Movers
Sequenom (NASDAQ:SQNM) is up 29 cents to $3.46 and making a run beyond previous November resistance highs around $3.25 to $3.40 per share. In the options market, volume is picking up, with 4950 calls and 320 puts traded. The call volume represents 6X the expected for midday and is focused on Dec and Jan10 $4 calls. While open interest is sufficient to cover in both contracts, ISEE data indicate that customers are buying-to-open new positions. Meanwhile, average implied vols in this biotech are moving up to 170, from about 167 late yesterday. No headlines to explain the action.
Unusual Volume Movers
Origin Agritech (NASDAQ:SEED) is seeing 12X average daily trading volume, with 113,000 contracts traded and call volume representing 87 percent of today's activity.
Verizon (NYSE:VZ) is seeing 2X average trading volume, with 62,000 contracts traded and call volume representing 54 percent of today's trading activity.
Micron Tech (MU) is seeing 5X normal trading volume. 59,000 contracts have traded, with puts representing 90 percent of today's volume.
Unusual volume (two times or more than normal average volume) is also being seen in the Select Sector Healthcare Fund (NYSEARCA:XLV), Select Sector Industrials (NYSEARCA:XLI), and Union Pacific (NYSE:UNP).

On May 13, 1985, a longtime feud between the city of Philadelphia and controversial radical urban group MOVE came to a deadly climax. By order of local authorities, police dropped military-grade explosives onto a MOVE-occupied rowhouse. TV cameras captured the conflagration that quickly escalated — and resulted in the tragic deaths of eleven people (including five children) and the destruction of 61 homes. It was only later discovered that authorities decided to "...let the fire burn." Using only archival news coverage and interviews, first-time filmmaker Jason Osder has brought to life one of the most tumultuous and largely forgotten clashes between government and citizens in modern American history.

Moonlight to Twilight
Poem by: sherry1
Status: Finished
Genre: Poetry
Golden sun kissed bodies
glistening under the light of the moon.
Walking slowly hand in hand
through sands that are pearly white.
The gentle roll of the ocean tide
washing upon their feet.
The seagulls issuing their mournful cry;
echoing in the night.
The gentle rustle of palm trees;
blowing in the whispering breeze.
Stars twinkling in the night sky
reflecting off the water so blue.
Mother nature has painted a picture
so beautiful none can compare.
Sitting side by side and watching
the dawn of a brand new day.
Roses and lavenders, orange and reds
displayed across the sky.
A show unlike no other
the beauty simply breathtaking.

Yes you did! No rhyme just a beautiful poem. Still just as Bristol cream though
I really like this. Great free verse style, smooth as silk. Beautifully descriptive imagery, just excellent!
Great job; if you're anything like me, I find this type of poem more difficult than one that rhymes, I'm not sure why.
ah yes..............................(just soaking it in here, don't mind me)..................................................(you still here? just another minute, i promise)................................................................................................ ah there, that's better!
Excellent Sherry. I's gotta learn how to do that!
