New in Symfony 2.7: Advanced table layouts for console commands
The Symfony Console component is the second most popular Symfony component, with more than eight million downloads on Packagist.org so far. One of the main factors of its success is the amount of features that it provides to create advanced console commands. In Symfony 2.7 we went a step further and added support for defining advanced table layouts.

"An enormously entertaining book."--Orson Scott Card
Janitors #1by Tyler Whitesides
No one takes Spencer Zumbro seriously when he tried to warn his classmates about the mysterious things prowling the halls and classrooms of Welcher Elementary School. But when he sees Marv, the janitor, going after one of the creatures with a vacuum, he knows he's not the only one who can see them.

No one takes Spencer Zumbro seriously when he tried to warn his classmates about the mysterious things prowling the halls and classrooms of Welcher Elementary School. But when he sees Marv, the janitor, going after one of the creatures with a vacuum, he knows he's not the only one who can see them.
With the help of his new friends, Daisy, Spencer has to find out what the janitors know. The children's search uncovers the magic taking place behind the scenes of their seemingly ordinary school, where a battle is being waged for the minds of the students. Who can be trusted—and can Spencer and Daisy protect their school and possibly the world?
Editorial Reviews
"An enormously entertaining book."--Orson Scott Card
"Entertaining . . . with plenty of twists and turns."--Brandon Mull, author of Fablehaven and Beyonders series
Alaska Association of School Librarians' Battle of the Books nominee 2015-2016
With both cleanliness and educational function at stake, a government agency and a rebel faction duke it out in the halls, restrooms and classrooms of an Idaho elementary school.
For centuries the Bureau of Educational Maintenance has trained wizard-janitors to fight the insidious, invisible, dirt-loving, brainwave-sucking "Toxites" (i.e., Rubbish, Grime and Filth) that infest every school and gleefully leach interest, attention and even consciousness from hapless students (now you know). Thanks to applications of a magical slime, hyper-fastidious Spencer and his gullible but steadier sixth-grade classmate Daisy find themselves able to see the revolting little monsters all around them. They become caught between a cohort of BEM agents after supposed mavericks and two fugitive custodians who claim that BEM has, for never-explained reasons, turned traitor to its principles. Who is to be believed? Choosing a side, Spencer and Daisy train with Toxite-killing brooms, mops and vacuum cleaners, and the clandestine battle escalates into a wildly destructive sequence of chases, break-ins and brangles. Whitesides, himself a former school custodian, commits rookie mistakes by suddenly dropping a major character (the obligatory bully) and sets up sequels by leaving too many basic questions unanswered. Still, his debut spins plenty of action, authentic janitorial detail and foul substances around an audience-pleasing premise.
An implausible but entertaining ruckus: Squeamish readers may never touch a school water fountain again. (Fantasy. 10-13)

"I see creatures in the school," Spencer insisted. "Some are slimy, some are furry, some have wings. I don't know why the rest of you can't see them. I'm trying to figure that out. I don't want to freak you guys out, but I had to tell you what I've seen."
Dead silence.
Then, like an avalanche: laughter.

This book is about the mysterous world of janitors. You would think janitors are boring but wait till you read this book. You will never see a broom the sameway. It is about a fight for education. This book has so many twist and turns. Good Job, Tyler Whitesides
Janitors is an amazing book! At every moment you are either laughing, gasping, or sighing. Middle aged readers will love it and the relatable characters too! I would highly suggest it!
I seriously couldn't put this book down. Read it in 2 days!
'Janitors' is a magical story that will sweep you off of your feet. Spencer Zumbro is your typical 6th grader trying to fit in at a new school, although he tends to be a bit of neat and clean freak. One day he dozes off during algebra (who hasn't?) and wakes to discover the class bully has decorated his face with a marker. Anxious to remove the obnoxious equations he races to the bathroom and the only thing he can find that works is a bottle of hotel soap someone left on the sink. When he returns to class he is alarmed to discover strange creatures inhabiting his school. Tag along with Spencer and his new friend Daisy as they fight off hoards of evil janitors with magical mops and other enchanted cleaning devices. You'll never look at a bag of vacuum dust the same way again. Hazen Wardle, author of 'The Triumph Detective'
If you like Fablehaven, this is the book for you! If you haven't read Fablehaven (Brandon Mull), this is a good way to start.

Trust me, i have read over 500 books in my lifetime. This book was one of the best. Really, trust me, this book is really good.
This book was deffinately unique that is probably why I liked it so much.

Janitors by Tyler Whitesides is a middle school friendly fantasy book that adults can enjoy as well. Primarily following Spencer Zumbro, a student who has a bit of a rough time at school. There is a bully named Dez that loves to pick on him. He has also had some turmoil at home. His father left the family and his mom is pushing hard to make everything stick together without him. He also has a little bit of OCD in terms of keeping his room organized and himself clean. When Dez draws on his face one day he rushes to the bathroom to try to get the marker off and finds some super strong soap on the edge of the sink. After his face stops stinging he makes it back to class and starts to see strange creatures in the classroom. This leads him to suspect the janitors in the school of an evil plot and tries to contact the BEM (Bureau of Education Maintenance) in order to report them. Along the way he enlists the aid of Daisy, a classmate who is also picked on constantly. The idea of this book was actually pretty fantastic. The idea of magic at a school is nothing new in this day, but the idea of janitors being the source of the magic in normal schools is unique. The monsters are well described without being overly disturbing making them perfect for kids to read about. The best part of the book may be the weapons that are created out of everyday items that would be found in a school. The great thing is that only pretty basic stuff is talked about in this book so I'm hoping that there will be a whole host of new items discussed in the second. I've been contacted by the publisher a few times for review requests and when they first got a hold of me I was hoping that some day they would want a review for this series. Happily for me the book did not disappoint at all. This is going to be a book that is filed away for reading with my daughter when she gets a little older for sure. This book has a wide range of appeal so I'd recommend giving it a shot if it appeals to you at all. Review copy provided by the publisher.
I don't normally read middle grade; this was one of those books that magically appeared in the mail against my will, but since it's here, might as well read it, right? Janitors was a mildly adorable fantasy as far as fantasies go; I love the magical elements they used in the story. All of the creatures were interesting and I loved the way the magic worked. (So that's how brooms fly!) I was impressed by the plot in the aspect that I did want to see what happened next, even if one of the big reveals of somebody being the bad guy was easy to figure out, at least for me. (Maybe the average MG reader will have a harder time figuring it out, but it's pretty obvious.) Besides that, I liked the going back and forth between who were the real bad guys or not. I wasn't that impressed by the writing itself, but on the other hand, I'm not it's targeted audience. The main characters were fun to read about; I loved Gullible Gates and Spencer's family made me grin. (The mom? BEST character.)

Argwyll Flamehoof: DistractionsMature
Ow! My head. I wake up, without making it look like ive not woken up yet. I see flames, smoke and i hear harpy screams, looks like we have help. Everyone seems to be distracted at the moment. I release all i could before this man centaur saw me. I got out my bow and shot him in the chest, it didnt kill him but it sure swept him off his feet.
The woman hasnt seemed to have noticed yet, with all this noise going on and the forest burning it was all too distracting. Whilst the harpies had their full attention i took my men out of the village back to our home camp.
Before i leave however, i hurl a fireball at the girl centaur, i just heard her scream without taking her attention off of this golden harpy. He seemed to be putting up a good fight, but you could see struggle in both of their eyes.
When we got back to the camp. I alerted all the others, with an assault like this, the centaur wernt just going to let it go. They will most likley retaliate with deadly force. So i gathered all my kinsmen and warned them of the coming threat that may happen. I emphasised the word may.
I couldnt just sleep, i could still hear the sound of clashing steel and the odd scream of a harpy or centaur, but then i could hear it. The centaurs reinforcements came back.
We couldnt allow this. I went over to the signals and i lit it, telling the other tribes that i needed help. within minutes many of my brethren had come. It was army standard.
We all waited for the right moment, then we charged in. The overwhelming force of us, not only that but i noticed that the woman wasnt there, and the centaur that i shot was gone. It didnt matter, we should finish off the remaining centaur and get out of here.

US first lady lashes out at Burma's rulers
The US first lady, Laura Bush, has lashed out at Burma's military leaders for not warning people of the approaching cyclone and the Bush administration also says it is having trouble convincing the regime to accept emergency assistance.
Source: AM | Duration: 3min
Topics: cyclones, death, relief-and-aid-organisations, united-states, burma
TONY EASTLEY: The US First Lady, Laura Bush, has criticised Burma's military leaders for not warning their people of the approaching cyclone.
The Bush administration also says it's having trouble convincing the Burmese regime to accept emergency assistance.
Washington Correspondent Michael Rowland reports
MICHAEL ROWLAND: Laura Bush has long been an outspoken critic of Burma's military regime. So it was hardly surprising she took the place of her husband in responding to the devastating cyclone.
After offering her sympathy for the victims and their families Mrs Bush took aim at the generals.
LAURA BUSH: It's troubling that many of the Burmese people learned of this impending disaster only when foreign outlets such as Radio Free Asia and Voice of America sounded the alarm.
Although they were aware of the threat Burma's state run media failed to issue a timely warning to citizens in the storms path, the response to the cyclone is just the most recent example of the junta's failure to meet its peoples' basic needs.
MICHAEL ROWLAND: The First Lady also expressed her concern about the regime's plans to go ahead with Saturday's constitutional referendum.
LAURA BUSH: Despite the havoc created by this weekend's cyclone, as far as we can tell Burma's military leaders plan to move forward with the constitutional referendum scheduled for this Saturday, May 10th.
They've orchestrated this vote to give to false legitimacy to their continued rule.
MICHAEL ROWLAND: In the cyclone's aftermath, the United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has also been voicing his frustration about trying to deal with such a closed country.
BAN KI-MOON: Because of the lack of communications and the information, we're not quite sure what would be the total extent of damages and the casualties but I'm very much alarmed by the incoming news.
MICHAEL ROWLAND: The United States is providing $250,000 in financial aid, but Burma is so far resisting America's offer of sending in a disaster relief team.
It's a decision Laura Bush wants the regime to re-consider.
LAURA BUSH: The United States stands prepared to provide an assistance team and much needed supplies to Burma as soon as the Burmese government accepts our offer.
The government of Burma should accept this team quickly as well as other offers of international assistance.
MICHAEL ROWLAND: As it moves to help Burma, the Bush administration is finding any assistance measures may fall victim, at least in the short term, to the tough financial sanctions it imposed on the country late last year.
State Department spokesman Tom Casey.
TOM CASEY: I believe that there would be some legal restrictions that I'd have to check with multiple lawyers on in terms of what kinds of assistance we might be able to provide directly to the government or government entities in Burma.
MICHAEL ROWLAND: The question remains, how much outside help is Burma's regime willing to accept.
In Washington this is Michael Rowland reporting for AM.

Raw admiration is etched across Ryan Giggs' face. Phumzile, a young man living with HIV, has just produced a brief video diary detailing the road he has travelled since discovering his illness and overcoming the stigma attached to it – still a huge obstacle in South Africa – by revealing his status to his family.
Giggs sits alongside Phumzile in the spartan classroom of a comprehensive school in Gugulethu, a township 15km outside Cape Town. The Manchester United midfielder has met Nelson Mandela and witnessed some of football's greatest players at close hand, yet his facial expression when he turns to Phumzile at the end of his story betrays a humbled man in the presence of someone of true substance. "Seeing and hearing the lad's story showed what bravery is all about and what being a man is about," Giggs said. "He shared what he has been through and that took so much courage.
"Just talking to a few people is daunting at the best of times, but his story was unbelievable and it has a massive effect on you. He was telling me about it and he probably won't ever see me again, but to be brave enough to tell his family and his community, well..."
Phumzile is one of an estimated 5.4m people in South Africa living with HIV. That accounts for 14 per cent of the world Aids population and underlines the efforts needed to stem the spread of the virus in the country.
Men are the drivers of the virus in South Africa, where one of the largest and most tragic outlets for it is the rape and sexual abuse of young girls. In a society where women are still not viewed as equals, the promiscuity of men, particularly in the poverty-stricken townships, has led to HIV growing at an alarming rate. The stigma attached breeds a reluctance to be tested and a lack of disclosure once it has been diagnosed, factors which emphasise Phumzile's courage in not only admitting his status, but emerging as somebody willing to discuss the virus.
Giggs added: "From what I saw of the video, Phumzile's family appeared to have helped him, but I wanted to ask him how his friends reacted towards him, what kind of stigma he has, because there is still a stigma attached to HIV in Africa.
"When you get here and hear him speak about his experiences, it brings it to you first-hand. It's very different to seeing it on the television back home. It's close up and it has a real effect on you."
By discovering his status, Phumzile was able to access the retroviral medication that has enabled him to rebuild his life, to the extent where he recently became a father to a boy who, joyously, was born HIV negative.
"Disclosure brings freedom," Phumzile admitted to Giggs. "And by teaching people about my status, I can help others to enjoy the same benefits as me. My life is now stress-free because I do not hide my status or have to live with the consequences that would bring. The more open you are, the more comfortable your life can be. When I went to my support group for the first time, there were 20 women there, but no guys. That is why I set up a support group for men, to help other fathers like me and hopefully help the schoolkids."
The Sonke Gender Justice project, which began in February 2006, attempts to address the social aspects of the HIV pandemic by focusing on the gender issues in South Africa, by re-shaping attitudes between the sexes and encouraging more respect for women. Before workshops staged by Sonke, 100 per cent of respondents believed that they had the right, as men, to decide when to have sex with their partners. That figure fell to 75 per cent after the workshops.
Giggs is hopeful that his participation will help. He said: "The message of being a positive male role model is an important one to put across, especially in South Africa, because there is still an attitude and perception that men are more important than women. There is a real personal value to this for me, especially when there are children involved. Because of the standing of United and my status as a footballer, the kids here listen to you and we can get further than any teacher or politician when it comes to getting a message across. That's because they have seen us on TV and they regard us as heroes. If a teacher was doing the talking, it's only natural that the kids would probably switch off after five minutes, but they really take it on board when they see us and hear us talking."
Giggs has spent eight years working with Unicef and was named an ambassador two years ago. In Soweto in 2006 he fronted the "Men As Partners" project, while in Guangzhou last year he met children battling to overcome the HIV stigma in China.
With family roots stretching to Sierra Leone, Giggs is keen to develop his work with Unicef by fronting the bid to halt the rise of HIV there, an initiative he helped launch last month, and he says he may travel there during this season to provide a high-profile face for the campaign.
Giggs said: "I've not been to Sierra Leone yet, but it's somewhere that I want to visit because my family, on my dad's side, can be traced back there. That is something we have spoken about, going to Freetown and doing something for Unicef.
"Last year was my first year without internationals after retiring from Wales duty, so the idea was to rest and I didn't want to do it [Freetown] last year, but I think I'm going to do it this year. I will get involved in more projects like this as the years go on. I've done things on pre-season tours before, but we have talked about doing more. It is something I enjoy and you can see it has a massive effect on people."
With Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Bryan Robson following Sir Bobby Charlton into ambassadorial roles for United, Giggs' future may yet see a greater involvement in similar projects, but after breaking Charlton's appearance record for the club during the Champions League final against Chelsea in May, Giggs says his immediate ambition is to further prolong his on-field Old Trafford career.
"I'm just going to enjoy the season and see what happens after that," Giggs says. "I can't hide from the fact that I will be 35 later this year, but I try to look after myself and use my experience by playing different positions than I used to.
"I don't know what I am going to do when I finish playing, though. Bryan Robson has just taken the ambassadorial role, similar to Sir Bobby Charlton's role over the years. I've taken my coaching badges because I want to stay in the game in some capacity, be it coaching or managing, but I will have to start thinking about it a lot more seriously at some point. I am thinking ahead, but you can't predict the future. A lot of people just fall into jobs, so you can't predict what you are going to do."

The son of working class parents in Brooklyn, N.Y., he grew up in public housing, managing to escape in 1970 with a football scholarship to Northern Michigan University.
After graduation, he found work in sales and marketing at Xerox Corp., then as an appliance salesman for a company that sold European coffee makers. He noticed that he was selling more of them to a fledgling Seattle company called Starbucks than to the major department-store chain Macy's. He took a job at Starbucks as head of operations and marketing, but it was on a business trip to Italy that he decided to bring the romance of Italian espresso bars to the United States.
With the help of Christine Day, the outgoing chief executive of Lululemon, who was a financial adviser on private placement offerings, he launched his own coffee company, Il Giornale, opening two espresso bars in Seattle and one in Vancouver.
In 1987, he acquired Starbucks and kept the name, with 11 stores in all.
Ms. Day joined the company officially, putting her future in the hands of a man who "believed people would spend $2.50 for a cup of coffee when you could get drip coffee at 7-Eleven for 50 cents," she said earlier this year.
By 2000, with Starbucks in solid shape, Mr. Schultz stepped down as CEO to focus on global strategy and expansion as chairman. But by 2007, the chain began to falter, obsessed with growth and distracted from the core coffee business. The financial crisis hit, the digital revolution arrived and an onslaught of new coffee competitors squeezed Starbucks.
"When it comes to Starbucks, I take every threat very personally," Mr. Schultz writes in his 2011 book, Onward: How Starbucks Fought for its Life Without Losing its Soul. "Starbucks is in my blood. It is such a part of me that letting it unravel simply was not an option … As chairman, I held myself responsible for the problems we ourselves had created … I knew that, without daily control of the business, I was essentially powerless to stop Starbucks from sinking."
During a vacation to Hawaii in 2007, as he was contemplating retaking the reins at Starbucks, he spoke with his pal Michael Dell, founder of the eponymous computer company, who had just returned to the top job at his company.
At the time, Mr. Dell shared with him his own "transformation agenda." It became a call to action for Mr. Schultz, helping him realize the scale of change and precision decision-making needed at Starbucks.
He returned in January, 2008, and on Feb. 26, closed 7,100 U.S. cafés for three hours in the afternoon to retrain baristas in the art of making the perfect espresso.
Taking control is an operating principle for Mr. Schultz, whether it's the quality of the coffee Starbucks serves, or the way its distinctive beans are distributed.
Now that the company is back on firmer ground, Mr. Schultz has been adding more complexity to the operation, acquiring upscale companies such as La Boulange bakery and Teavana – an attempt to do for tea what Starbucks did for coffee.
"We've been selling food for 30 years," he told a conference call last month. "It just hasn't been as good as our coffee. Now our food is as good as our coffee and we have a story to tell."
It's a story that's helped fuel Starbucks's sales growth at stores open a year or more: They rose 8 per cent in its key U.S. market in 2013, compared with 1.3 per cent gains at Tim Hortons's U.S. restaurants so far this year and 0.9 per cent in its Canadian stores.
For Mr. Schultz, it means Starbucks is "a 24-hour job," he says.
"The only time that I'm not thinking about Starbucks is when I'm sleeping." Even then, he probably is, he adds. "I've never said that before, but it's true … I think when you love something like this there's a deep responsibility that goes with it."
Family is important to him, but he doesn't talk much about it. Daughter Addison is a graduate student studying social work in New York, son Jordan writes about sports for the Huffington Post.Report Typo/Error

Ryan and Kate
I don't like the title, but I couldn't come up with anything else...so...it sucks. :D The title, not the story. Also, I don't plan to add on another chapter because This is as far as I imagined these characters, and I really don't think of them in any other setting.
It's the kind of night that requires more than beer, so Ryan mixes up a gin and tonic. The clink of ice in the glass is a lonely sound in the apartment. He wanders into the "living room", the one that's anything but alive, turns on the TV; it hisses a stream of static as he slouches into the shabby brown couch. Meditatively, he sips at the tonic, content to drink himself thoroughly into the ground and dig to find rock bottom. It is, after all, a Friday night. And there he sits, alone, tired of the apartment but left with nowhere to go.
In the middle of Ryan's second gin and tonic, mixed with too much tonic and not nearly enough gin, the doorbell buzzes. The alcohol lights a slow burn in his throat, but he crosses the floor steadily enough and opens the door with a deft twist of his wrist. Kaitlin stands there in the hallway, dripping on the horrid green carpet. Water trickles from her seaweed-tangled hair, streaking trails across her translucent skin, sliding down her ankles to pool in her shoes. She shifts, and they squelch, beads of water oozing from the seams.
Belatedly, he realizes that the tiny tremors shake-shake-shaking her body are shivers.
Ryan steps aside, holding the door wide. Kaitlin walks under his arm. Her footsteps darken the carpet. Inside, trapped in the familiar shroud of sagging brown furniture, she appears to be a fragile mermaid, caught in some fisherman's net and dragged ashore. Chlorine streaks in her dirty blonde hair cast a greenish tint on her skin.
"Can I use your shower?"
Her lips are blue, the shade of a deep bruise. Ryan leads her down the narrow, single file hall and into the tiny bathroom.
"The knobs go like this," he demonstrates, turning them back and forth. "If someone else is using theirs, it might go hot and cold for a while…"
Kaitlin attempts a smile, but it gets stuck over her teeth, looking more like a grimace.
Quickly, Ryan retreats from the now sacred space of tile, closing the door softly in his wake. He doesn't actually leave the hallway until he hears the sputtering start of the water; then, he leans against the flimsy wood, resting his forehead against it, breathing. With one fast move, he tips the glass up and knocks the rest of the gin and tonic back. As it stings, he moves into the cramped bedroom, rifling through the chest of drawers to find something suitable. He pictures Kaitlin's height in his mind; unfortunately, Ryan hasn't ever been good at measurements. So, in desperation, he picks the smallest sweats and holey t-shirt he can find.
The shower is still going when he emerges. Ryan cracks the door and slips the clothes in, resting them on the grimy tile. Thoughtfully, he places two towels in the bathroom as well. Weariness hits him all at once, and he slides to the ground, contained in the small space between the walls. The bones of his spine contour to the door; his eyes wander from the cracks in the ceiling to the scuff marks on the unevenly boarded floor. The sound of water running almost lulls him to sleep. Unbidden, a solitary tear finds its way down his face, aiming for his shirt. For the last time, he swears, Ryan pulls his phone out and checks. No texts. No messages. No missed calls. Nothing.
The door begins to give way under his weight, so he scrambles to his feet. Kaitlin stares back in the general direction of his face, wearing the grey sweatpants and red "Go Tigers!" t-shirt from his high school days. Ryan backs down the hall, toward the kitchen. She follows along, hair still dripping onto her shoulders.
"Care for a gin and tonic?" he asks, already on his way to mixing one. It seems only polite, only cordial that he offer to share his misery, his suffering.
"Yes, please."
Kaitlin curls onto the brown loveseat, tucking her feet in to keep them warm. He can feel her eyes on his back. When he turns, carrying the glasses, she combs her fingers quickly through her damp hair, tugging it into some semblance of order.
"Thanks," she says, meeting his gaze firmly now. Ryan can hear every unspoken apology she refuses to say, and he chooses not to go there, not now. Kaitlin is already in the depths of her cup, drinking fast. Her hand remains steady as she lifts it to him again.
"Rough night?" Ryan finally ventures, back in the kitchen to mix up another gin and tonic. With slight regret, hazed by his inability to truly care, he notes that all the tonic has managed to end up in Kaitlin's cup. He finishes up his duties as bartender by tipping half a cup of gin into her glass, and pouring a straight bit for himself.
"A little, yeah."
Ryan settles into the ratty armchair, watches her sip from the corner of his eye. At the same time, they check their phones. No texts. No messages. No missed calls. Nothing. He smiles at their similarity. It feels strange, a crooked, rusty movement that leaves his teeth exposed. She realizes it too, and begins to laugh. It bounces off the walls, then turns into a hitch that almost turns into a sob. It's there, though, hiding in her eyes, just beyond the expression on her face.
"I just wish He'dcall me back. But He never does."
Kaitlin pulls a hand through her hair again, tugging it, letting it slide over her arm.
"She needs me less than I need Her."
Maybe it's the gin, maybe the tonic. Maybe it's the mermaid in his living room, tail-less and hopeless, staring at him with ocean eyes. Maybe it's the fact that She hasn't called in days. Ryan can't tell.
"I hate this," he says, and it's the truth. It's surprising, really, the way he can admit it to his living room walls – to Kaitlin – but not to Her.
"I hate it, too." Her voice seeps into his ear, sinking into his bones. What a pair. Startled, he begins to laugh. It's a foreign sound, but once he starts, he can't stop. Kaitlin stares, clearly wondering about the permanence of his sanity. But then she can't help but see the irony, the unhappy parallel between their unhappy lives. She starts to laugh, and they are both so caught up, so breathless with the discovery, that they begin to cry, too; laughing and crying, one melting into the other until their chests ache and their lungs burn and their hearts crack and heal in different places, leaving a jagged mess.
Ryan wipes his face with his grimy t-shirt, offers a dingy tissue from his pocket. Kaitlin blows her nose noisily, then grins through her red eyes.
"Bathroom," she says. He watches her wind her way to the tiny room. Minutes later, the faucet squeals, turned on high blast. When she comes back, there are two bottles of water on the coffee table; Ryan flips through the channels, lifting a watery smile from the couch. The two curl together, holding each other up, plugging their own endless dams with warm skin and camaraderie, if not a strange sort of love.
Kaitlin takes a sip of her water, washing the taste of gin from her gums and teeth, the places it usually lingers. The TV settles on SNL after Ryan adjusts the antenna, gives it a smack for good luck, and cusses until the screen flares to life. Through the night, they laugh again, a little (alotalotalot) more, cry (from laughing, from remembering), and finally fall asleep (Kaitlin does, at least). Ryan watches her for a long, immeasurable time. Her green-blonde hair trickles over his shoulder, and she's a mermaid again, lost in the waves. She can't be saved, not quite. She has to want it. Ryan thinks she does.
He's still watching her when he slips after her into slumber. Ryan dreams of the ocean, wind whipping his hair, screaming in his face. He's standing on a cliff, stretched wide like the wings of a bird, ready for the plunge. There's a hand in his, but when he turns to look, it's not Her. It's Kaitlin. Together, they face the rocks. She's smiling wider than he's ever seen. And then they are both tipping over the edge, falling, falling, falling.
Ryan wakes with a start. It's morning. The sun beams through the tiny windows, bathing the brown room in gold. It's almost beautiful. On the table, his phone buzzes obnoxiously, dancing impatiently on the glass. With careful fingers, he lifts it. It's Her. Kaitlin stirs sleepily; her head nudges his chest, then her palm grazes his calf. A strange feeling engulfs him. Ryan deliberates in the space of a heartbeat. The ring is shrill, annoying. The one he's been waiting for. Kaitlin shifts again on the couch, and this time, her seaweed eyes open, fluttering like a camera shutter.
Without a doubt, Ryan silences the buzzer and pulls a still sleepy Kaitlin upright.
"Waffles?" he whispers persuasively into her ear, letting her hair tickle his nose.
"Gimme five minutes," she mumbles. It's barely coherent, but she stumbles into the bathroom anyway, shutting the door. It takes two tries, but she makes it. By the time she exits, sleepy still and wearing last night's clothes, Ryan is dressed in marginally acceptable jeans, and a less than attractive t-shirt. Together, they clean up the glasses and empty gin bottles, lock the door on the way out. They are almost to the street when Kaitlin shyly slips her hand inside his, asking permission with sea glass eyes.
"What is this?" he asks. She understands. He means the torrential feeling gushing in her chest, the overwhelming urge to stay close, connected. The feeling that allows her suddenly hypersensitive skin to experience the pulse in his wrist, the lifeline running through his palm, every patch of roughness on his fingers. The feeling that doesn't feel exactly like Love, but something that could turn into it, over time. It's just love now, nothing special, nothing important. The important thing is that he feels it too. Quietly, in his mind, Ryan wonders if she'll get a call from Him, if she'll answer, what she'll say. Even now, he feels the urge to redial Her number and apologize, beg for forgiveness. What kind of Love is that?
Kaitlin swings their arms, and they bump between their legs, ping-ponging back and forth. It feels like life. Neither of them has ever felt so alive, so real. So free. And they walk down the street, starstruck and sideswiped by what wells over in their less-than-broken, less-than-whole hearts. Ryan leans in close, debating silently. Kaitlin can feel it; she turns her head, half a smile playing over her lips. At the last possible second, his mouth grazes the corner of hers, moves to her cheek. It's gentle, careful. Trying not to break the fragile web holding them together. He doesn't.
He doesn't call back. Neither does She. And life goes on.

Nov. 25, 2015 UPDATE
For Curry lovers, from Kyoto.
There's no doubt that "curry rice" can be considered a Japanese soul food. More than a few Japanese households have the tradition of eating curry rice on Sunday evenings, and many a curry-loving Japanese restauranteur has traced the same path of traveling to India — the home of curry — then returning to Japan to open a restaurant where they serve curries made with their very own recipes. Curry, first brought to Japan by the British, underwent its own special evolution once it arrived on these shores, and has grown into a part of Japan's own unique food culture. The abundance of varieties on offer, as well as the level of attachment Japanese people have to their curry, is truly something to behold. Additionally, recognition of curry rice has spread throughout the world thanks to the advances of the Japanese curry rice chain CoCo Ichibanya to America, China, and Thailand. There are many restaurants offering delicious curry rice right here in Kyoto, but it is our sincere hope that curry lovers from all over the world will try the selection we have recommended upon their arrival in Kyoto. For those of you who have never visited Japan but feel an incredible yearning for curry rice, for those of you who just aren't satisfied with the "katsu curry" served in your own countries, and even for those of you who have never even heard of it (let alone tried it), we truly hope that you'll enjoy reading this article. It's been written with love by the curry lovers of Kyoto.
Part 1Door to rice and curry dishes in Japan
Curry and rice is a dish often prepared in home cooking; it can be found easily around the city in cafés, cafeterias, bento box stands, and the like. It is so well known that it could be considered as the star of the food service industry. All of us Japanese people love curry and rice. Curry House CoCo Ichibanya, …

Part 2Cutlet Curry and other dishes
When it comes to katsu curry, and other dishes of the same family, one of the strongest points of Japanese people is that once they catch hold of something new, they will spend a long time devoting themselves to improving it until they are completely satisfied. This trait of being unavoidably obsessed toward something they love is also apparent in curry …

Part 3Kyoto's Curry
If you are a fan of curry and are visiting Kyoto, you are in for a bit of luck. In actual fact, in this city, there is one new curry restaurant opening up its doors approximately every three months -competition here is fierce-. Some of the reasons for this is the fact that Kyoto is a student city with ma …

Part 4Ultimate Japanese curry
Japanese curry is not just curry rice. As was mentioned in Part 2, when the Japanese hit upon something they like, they have a tendency to explore to the extremes. Take the combination of curry and bread, curry and ramen, and the birth of small, portable curry packs as examples of this. …

News : SWBC Financial Institution Group Partners with SmartAction
San Antonio, TX, USA, October, 2016 -- SWBC, an international financial services company providing a wide range of insurance, mortgage and investment services to individuals, business and financial institutions, announced that its financial institution group is partnering with SmartAction, a Calif.-based provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI) voice self-service in order to power a voice-based payment service.
SmartAction is providing SWBC with a language processing system that uses machine-learning technologies to continuously improve its ability to recognize a caller's spoken command. This allows SWBC to handle complex payment interactions that would have traditionally required a live agent, and to do so in a fashion that doesn't frustrate the caller.
"We worked with SWBC to find new methods to improve the borrower's experience of paying their loans using voice capabilities," said Tom Lewis, chief executive officer of SmartAction. "We're very proud of the qualitative improvements we were able to create by combining our powerful natural language processing and the power of SWBC's payment processing engines."
"We looked into many solutions but none had both the qualitative and quantitative improvements needed to work with our technology as seamlessly as SmartAction," said Jason O'Brien, senior vice president of payments at SWBC financial institution group. "This integration marks one of many improvements in which we are investing across all of our payment channels in order to provide our customers and their borrowers with the best overall experience possible."

I'm seeing this guy on the weekend and normally I get my period on the
5th or 6th of the month, it's been this way for about 5 months now. I
planned things so that my period would be over by the time I see this
guy. It's now the 6th and I still haven't gotten my period. I don't
want to be in the middle of my period when I see him in case anything
physical happens, not to mention it's just uncomfortable and awkward
timing. Is there a way I can induce my period now? I'm not on birth
control and I'm definitely not pregnant or anything since I haven't
been sexually active recently. If I can't induce my period, any
suggestions about what to do when I see this guy?
|He can wait on Oct 06, 2008 @ 10:10 pm
I would not mess with your system. Your body and health/well being are
far more important than a romp with this guy. He can wait and if he's
worth it, he will. Put your heath first.
Ali de Bold
|I concur on Oct 07, 2008 @ 09:40 am
Original poster, this doesn't sound like a good idea. Suggestions what to do together if you get it when you see him? Do something else :) It sounds like this would be your first time together and a messy encounter is probably not ideal for that. Just don't hook up then. See a movie, go for dinner... have a regular date. If he is only interested in hooking up then why get involved at all?

A cross stands above masses of flowers and a flame burns next to it. A sentry stands outside the building.

The eternal flame was replaced by a Four- times-enlarged copy of the bronze sculpture, "Mother with Dead Son,"by Kaethe Kollwitz, on a slab of black granite in the center of the room underneath the oculus. Her original small bronze made in 1937, resides in the Kaethe Kollwitz Museum in Charlottenburg.)

Major price drop on superyacht Lady A at Camper & Nicholsons
by Malcolm MacLean
Miriam Cain at Camper & Nicholsons tells me of a significant price reduction on the 33.83m motor yacht Lady A, a central listing with Rick Morales.
Custom built in 1998 at Intermarine Savannah, this tri-deck superyacht has a unique layout with a single walkaround deck on the starboard side and a full width VIP suite on the port side. This asymmetrical plan gives maximum interior space on the main deck including a very large main salon.
Lady A has a range of 3,500 nautical miles and is capable of transatlantic cruising. She has had only one owner who has continually maintained and upgraded her.
Lady A yacht specifications and images
The asking price is now down from $6.25 million to $3.9 million. For more information contact:

The southern highlands zone
Agricultural Research Institute-Uyole (ARI-Uyole) is a public institution, primarily undertaking agricultural research and development under the Ministry Agriculture, Food Security and Cooperatives (MAFC). ARI-Uyole was founded in 1968 as public institution and in 1976 it became semi-autonomous organization, The Uyole Agricultural Centre (UAC), which was established by Government Notice No 70 of 1976. The UAC primary functions were research and training for agricultural development, which were supported by NORDIC countries, namely: Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland and Denmark. Finland through its development agency, FINNIDA continued its support up to 1992 after other NORDIC countries had phased out in 1986. In July 1993, the government formally dissolved the UAC semi-autonomous status to its present of being one of the public agricultural research and development institutions in the MAFC, which caters for the Southern Highlands Zone.

Christian Benteke has joined Divock Origi in being removed from the Belgium squad due to injury.
News of Origi's withdrawal from the squad was announced on Thursday morning, with the striker picking up a thigh injury.
Thursday night saw Benteke also exit the Belgium squad, with the national team announcing that he will return to his club to recover.
Benteke's injury has not been revealed.
It means, with Roberto Firmino also sidelined with an injury, Liverpool only have Daniel Sturridge as a fit centre-forward.
Origi and Benteke will return to Melwood to undergo treatment for their injuries – with the rest of the Liverpool squad currently in Tenerife for a mini training camp.
Benteke has been in the headlines this week for controversial comments made to Belgium media, saying: "What's annoying me the most, is that I would have never signed for Liverpool if I wasn't the manager's first choice."
Benteke hasn't started a match for Liverpool since the FA Cup tie at West Ham in February.
Jurgen Klopp will be hoping no further injuries follow on international break, having said earlier this week: "We just hope they play well and come back to us healthy ready to help us for the rest of the season."

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.5 /5 from 79 reviews
Services, food variety, cleanness is fantastic!!! Staff is always smiling, makes it enjoyable. Perfect stay!
Fantastic place with a very relaxing and friendly atmosphere. The people we met were very nice, could hold a great conversation and very open to meeting new people. Definelty going back.
If you are open minded, this place probably will blow up your mind... not many in the world like this
First and foremost, THIS IS AN ADULT HOTEL. Most of the reviews I read bash the resort due to the extreme nature. It is most definitely not a family vacation spot or even a good idea for adults that are sensitive/offended to seeing naked bodies. It is an adult hotel with a very erotically charged atmosphere. If you want an adult adventure then this is the perfect place. With that being said, it is an outstanding hotel. The staff is fabulous particularly around the pool and hottub areas. The rooms are clean and aside from a couple of normal wear and tear issues, in very good condition. The restaurant food is excellent although the poolside cafe can be a bit overcooked (a result of buffet food left too long on warmers). If you eat at this cafe, order from the grill. The liquor is standard well liquor but they will give you top shelf if requested. This is a fully nude resort, but you do not feel pressured to take your clothes off. The hottub area is by far the most energized part of the hotel holding a massive 20-30 people. There are palapas (beds) to get "comfortable" on should you feel the need to "relax" with your partner (or someone else's). My only complaint are the mosquitoes. The resort is built next to somewhat of a swamp and with any body of standing water you are going to get mosquitoes. Overall, this is a great place and well worth the expense (which is considerably higher than other all inclusive resorts) as long as you are aware of what it entails.

Chapter Eight, Part Two: The Way We Weren'tMature
"I thought he'd never leave, Doctor…" Rosette's interface calls softly to him, rising from the floor behind in a whirl of girl and eau de something pleasant.
The whole ship smells of roses, that sweet, soft, delicate spray of reddish or greenish or white or cream or rainbow. Or blue. Or black. Of hips and petals and all things named as they should be.
Rose. Oh Rose.
"Do you have it?" he asks with white lips, his flesh taking on its natural color as she leans toward his back, a tower of white in Rose's form.
The Bismuth Sunrise Rose.
And Rose's slow acknowledging nod- not quite a cameo, not quite a pop culture poster on a teenager's bedroom wall.
And eee by by gum! The hands… oh the hands… that scent!
All over the ship!
All over the ship!
Mmm… all over the ship…
"Hi, Doc… I hear that lots of places have a north…" the interface murmurs, falling against his back and staying there, one hand wrapping and snaking irreverently like a porcelain coat, "…that still true?"
The fingers of her free hand cling to his skin, gripping his jaw. His rusty mouth springs open like an old iron trap as she tucks the brilliant rainbow-colored rose behind his ear like Biv's boutonniere, idling over everywhere of him. Especially his hair.

Sources: Houston Astros add relievers Luke Gregerson, Pat Neshek
The Houston Astros have bolstered their bullpen by agreeing to an $18.5 million, three-year contract with Luke Gregerson and a $12.5 million, two-year deal with Pat Neshek, people familiar with the negotiations said Wednesday.
The people spoke on condition of anonymity because the deals with the right-handers were subject to physicals.
Gregerson, 30, spent five years with San Diego, then went 5-5 with a 2.12 ERA in 72 appearances for Oakland last season. Neshek, 34, has pitched for Minnesota, San Diego, Oakland and St. Louis. He was 7-2 with a 1.87 ERA for the Cardinals this year, when he struck out 68 in 67 1-3 innings and was picked for his first All-Star game.
Gregerson, who could take over as closer from Chad Qualls, receives $6 million next year and $6.25 million in each of the final two seasons.
Houston had shown interest in David Robertson, who agreed to a $46 million, four-year contract with the Chicago White Sox.
Neshek gets $5.5 million next year and $6.5 million in 2016. The deal includes an option at $6 million to $9 million, depending on his performance, with a $500,000 buyout.

wikiHow to Cut in Cooking Fats
Cutting in fat or shortening in cooking is very easy to do. This baking technique is normally used to make biscuits or pies. Some muffin recipes may use this method of distributing fat but this type of muffin recipe is usually found in older recipes.
1Add the flour to a mixing bowl. You may also add salt, sugar or baking powder, if called for, when planning to cut the fat into the flour mixture.
2Cut the fat or shortening into small pieces, if the fat is cold.
3Add the cut up pieces of fat to the flour.
4Use a pastry blender or two table knives to cut the fat into the flour.
- If you are using a pastry blender you normally press down and rock back-and-forth to cut the fat into the flour.
- If you are using two table knives, then cut the fat into the flour using a criss-cross slicing motion.
- Most recipes ask the fat to be cut into the flour mixture until the fat looks like it's the size of pea.
