garage insulation question
I live in North Dakota and am looking at insulating, sheetrocking, and heating a detached garage. What type of insulation would I need to use? What rating would I need?
I don't live in North Dakota, but where I live, the minimum insulation required for a heated garage is R-13. It is not going to be used as a living space/area, so the requirements aren't the same as in a home.
If you have 2x6 walls, use R-19.
If you really want to keep the place warm, you can go with an R-30 for the ceiling joists. R -30 isn't cheap on the costs.
My 2 cents from New England
I'm in W. Canada, and we too would use R-19 in the walls (2x6).As much as you can afford in the ceiling. You can add more later, too, if you like. As a reference, here, in a home it is required to have R-40 in the ceiling. Don't forget to vapour barrier on the "warm-in-winter" side of the insulation before the sheetrock..
at your local hardware store, they should know and stock the r-value you will need. i would use the rolled with vapor barrier flanges. whats youe email address? i will send u a pic of my garage job.
Thanks for the advice. I haven't priced anything yet, but hope to soon.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
13 year old Lauren is largely happy with her life except for her slanted eyes. She is teased at school but never tells the tormentors how she feels about their hateful names. Her best friend frequently gets annoyed by her silence. Lauren decides that epicanthoplasty and a double eyelid surgery will make her life perfect. In a sudden and powerful climax, when her father gets wind of her intentions and confronts Lauren and her grandmother, the true nature of how Lauren's mother died is revealed to her. The final decision regarding her surgery is left up to Lauren. I was quite happy that the ending did not have a fake, happily ever after feel to it, but instead seemed to be quite believable. Can't tell you what Lauren decided to do; you'll have to read it to find out for yourself. This is definitely a book I'd recommend more for girls.

Plastic surgery or not? Will it change your life and give you more self-confidence, or will it not change your life as dramatically as you thought?
These are the questions brought up by SLANT. There are many Asians having surgery to make their eyes more European-looking. I had an Asian living with me from Vienna. She said that she was lucky because she was born with a fold in her eyes. She also said that many of her aunts (she has many; her grandparents had nine children) have had the surgery. So this just isn't an American phenomena.
This story is about 13-year-old Lauren. Lauren was adopted by an American couple. She is Korean. Her younger adopted sister, Maia, is Chinese. Her adopted mother died when Lauren was ten, and she and Maia have been raised by her dad. Her dad is a university professor. Lauren's best friend is Julie, a tall, beautiful blond.
You can tell how much love is around these characters. At school there are a group of students who call Lauren slant, gook, or chink. She hates it but never stands up for herself. Lauren has been saving her money for two years for this surgery. When her grandmother, Ann, comes to town, the surgery may finally be a possibility.
Does she have the surgery? That is the question of the book.
I liked the characters in SLANT. They are written realistically, and you can tell the author likes these people. The story is written at a time where secrets are coming out and people are ready to move on with their lives. I really enjoyed this book.

Maybe you've seen it, maybe you haven't, but you should.
Kind of have a difficult time putting words to this.
Some aspects of this video are spot on in my emotional and personal experiences being stuck with this cross.
And the fears strike close to my heart.
It's not easy. I fall constantly. I waver on the edge daily. But I know that it will be worth it in the end.

International travel has gotten more sophisticated over the years, but there's still not much worse than getting lost in an area where you don't speak the language. The Garmin nüvi 2475LT portable navigator gives you detailed maps of most of Europe and the U.S., along with most of Canada, Mexico, and several Caribbean islands, making it ideal for transatlantic travel for business and pleasure alike. It also offers Bluetooth® connectivity for hands-free calling with your compatible phone. And its free traffic-information service keeps track of congestion in metropolitan areas, so you'll always find the quickest, most efficient route.
Innovative Garmin Guidance 2.0
Garmin didn't get to be a leader in the navigation industry by resting on their laurels. The nüvi 2475LT incorporates Garmin Guidance 2.0, a feature set that offers convenience for everyday travel. You can find and select businesses right on the map screen without having to go through time-wasting menus. Worried about losing your car in the lot at the mall? The navigator will help find it when you're done shopping.
More helpful features
Speed limit displays with visual warnings on major roads in both the U.S. and Europe help keep you in check. You'll see photoReal junction views that provide easy-to-read and realistic representations of complicated interchanges including signs so you can approach upcoming maneuvers with confidence. You'll also find a photo viewer, "Where Am I?" emergency aid, audiobook player, trip planner, and other helpful Garmin features.
Garmin 3D Traffic
The nüvi 2475LT features free lifetime traffic updates using Garmin's 3D Traffic service, which incorporates data from active devices on the road, historical traffic patterns, and other factors like construction, concerts, and sporting events to give you a comprehensive look at congestion in most metropolitan areas. Best of all, you won't have to pay a penny more for this service over the life of your nüvi.
Travel the globe with confidence
Finding a destination is easy and intuitive, and Garmin gives you 8 million searchable listings for everything from food to attractions. Want to remember a special spot that's not listed among the points of interest? Upload your own custom spots for future travels. The 4.3" screen makes the 2475LT perfect for viewing on the road but not too big for your pocket, and you can view it in display or portrait orientation, depending on your needs.
Text-to-speech voice prompts say street names at turns, and Lane Assist helps point the way through tricky maneuvers. In select instances, the screen will split automatically to give you a photoReal view of the junction so you'll have a clear picture of the next turn. When it's time to leave the highway, the navigator can give you all the options near the exit whether you're seeking food, gas, or a bed for the night.
Its very easy to use and with factory installed maps of Europe you can not beat it for the price and its a Garmin.

"This Book Was An Emotional Roller coatser!"
I am so confused about my feeling on this book, It took me 2 days to finally feel like I could write an honest review. I think it's one I just have a love/hate relationship with. In the beginning I was getting extremely annoyed because if this couple had just talked to each other then there wouldn't have been so much drama. But then again the more I got to know each character the more I understood their actions. I ended up loving them all and not wanting anyone to get hurt. I think Sadie and Nathan spent too much time thinking their marriage had to be perfect that they let that come between them. Saying this book has cheating isn't really giving a spoiler since it's in the synopsis but for the first time ever, this author made an affair make sense to me. Not that I agree with it but I can understand how it happened. I was a little disappointed that someone had to get hurt in the end, I would have loved for that person's future & happiness be in the epilogue (wishful thinking). All in all this book hit all of my emotions - anger, annoyance, sadness, lust, love and happiness. And I need to say that this book has a sex scene in a movie theater that was BEYOND HOT!!!!
The narration was amazing, which come on...It's Andi Arndt of course it was amazing!
I love being swept away by a new romance and thankfully Audible's ever growing Library means I get to indulge myself over and over again
For seven years Sadie has been put on a pedestal by her loving doting husband Nathan and then he stops, he goes out, comes home late, won't talk about what's wrong and Sadie is helpless, sad and eventually suspicious. She's also vulnerable... so, when sparks fly between her and her handsome new neighbor Finn, Sadie gets drawn in because Finn gives her a shoulder to cry on, eats her lovingly prepared meals meant for her absent husband who doesn't come home and Finn makes her laugh and feel again. As strong as she thought her marriage was, it's been broken for two miserable months and now Finn, and all his bold declarations, prove to be a very powerful temptation..... and, in her present state of mind, Sadie crosses the line.
This story is a heartbreaking account of two people whose soul deep love is tested to its breaking point.... not because they don't love each other, they do, and that's the tragedy about this story. Nathan's a tortured soul, he's a 'perfect person' but his inability to talk things over with Sadie and clear the air between them, is the catalyst that weakens their marriage. Does it destroy them?... Well, Finn is in the picture now, he too has a sad tale to tell.... of missed opportunities, Fate and broken dreams.... and, unlike Nathan, he's there for Sadie.
It's an emotional and powerful glimpse into a solid beautiful marriage that suddenly and unexpectedly reaches a crisis and, instead of leaning on each other for the answers, they both lean the other way. I'm not going to preach on the morals, decisions or broken promises that cheating elicits.... instead all I can say is that this story was ABSOLUTELY riveting - and I've had a sleepless night proving it..... I just couldn't stop this knife-edge listen until I knew the damage, the casualties and the bitter-sweet outcome. Told from Sadie's POV, there's passion, beautiful heartfelt words, some frenzied stolen sex scenes and the narrator was good.
Worth a credit? It depends - if you feel strongly (for whatever reason) about cheating and infidelity then definitely no it's not for you - but if you're easier and more comfortable about listening to this type of scenario then absolutely yes... it's an emotional and well written story about wrong decisions and second chances.
"Thought provoking story"
This took me well over a week to read because I had to keep putting it down out of complete frustration with Sadie and the decisions she made. I am a firm believer in turning inwards to your husband if you are unhappy in your marriage, not outside of it. However, there were many bad decisions made by all involved in this story.
Sadie has been married to Nathan for seven years and it would be fair to say that they are deeply in love. Nathan put his wife on a pedestal from the moment their relationship begun and Sadie has become accustomed to receiving this attention from him. Everything he does is with her in mind, he always puts her needs before his.
This is the crux of the beginning of their problems. When Nathan discovers something about their relationship that she has kept hidden from him, he completely closes himself off from Sadie. He does this for over two months. For the first time in their relationship she feels alone and insignificant. No matter what she says or does she cannot get Nathan to open up to her.
When a new neighbour moves into their building things begin to unravel more. Finn is sweet, handsome and really easy to talk to. Nathan may be shutting Sadie out but Finn is willingly letting her into his life. He is filling the pieces of Sadie's life that Nathan has vacated and feelings are growing between Sadie & Finn.
There were a lot of moments when I was reading this that I stopped because I was unhappy with the storyline and also at times I was reflecting on my own relationship with my husband, who also treats me the way Nathan is with Sadie. I even asked my husband if he thought I was lazy and if he felt like I took him for granted, the answer was 'no babe' by the way!
I guess this could happen to any couple in any marriage. I really loved Nathan, he was such a sweet man who was struggling to deal with the way his wife had deceived him. I did not think for one moment that he had stopped loving Sadie, he was just trying to deal. I found Sadie very self centred and hard to like as a female character. I completely understood her frustration about her husband not opening up to her and how rejected she felt, after spending seven years being adored by him.
I thought that Finn was a really nice guy and that in another time he and Sadie could have been meant for each other. However, I also felt like he should have stepped back, knowing how vulnerable Sadie was when she met him. He could have been a good friend to Sadie but he was relentless in his pursuit of her, never considering how it would affect anyone else.
In the end, someone's heart will be broken and all the lies will come to light.
I found this a very thought provoking read.
"Struggling to get through"
I am half way through and I want to kill the female lead. I am going to try and finish it, but dealing with a character like this is so frustrating. The narrator is good at least, but I'll never read anything by this author again.
"this story gripped my heart!"
I would say the audio is equally as good as the print version of the story
Being that the story is told in the female POV, Sadie would have to be my favorite character. She has depth, her emotions are internalized by the reader from the writing of the author.
Andi delivered the dialogue portions of the audiobook as if she was the one experiencing the confusion and heartache
There is a part towards the beginning of the book where Sadie is trying to get her husband to be intimate with her. They have just returned from a bowling game with his friends. He allows her to pleasure him, but then turns cold with her right after. he says some hurtful things to her. My heart was heavy and cracking with pain when reading it. Hearing these scene play out made it hurt even more.
"I do not care how realistic it is . . ."
This book may be realistic, but it that is not its biggest flaw. In my opinion, it is WAY too long. This book covers the time period of a few weeks, but takes forever. I realize we have to go back in time to learn certain things that feed into why the characters do the things they do. But it was just too drawn out. And not to mention how terrible the main character, Sadie, is. Selfish does not even begin to describe it. I realize her marriage was "perfect" and then all of a sudden it wasn't. But it had only been 2 months of non-perfection. 2 months out of 7 years and she turns her back on the whole thing? What kind of sense does that make. And all her thoughts of how "if I am selfish, its only because Nate made me this way!" That, in and of itself is a selfish statement. Not wanting to take any responsibility for anything. A person who is proud of the fact that they never feel guilt. I honestly cannot understand why EITHER of these men wanted her.
"I enjoyed the story but..."
I did not like Sadie's character. I found her character to be selfish and I was shaking my head at her actions several times as I listened. Overall, the book was good. I wish there were more men like Nathan.
"very realistic"
this book was great...HOT and sexy Sadie's story is very easy to identify with
definitely worth the credit
"Sweet Sexy Rollercoaster!"
Loved it! This book is a crazy hot sexual and emotional rollercoaster in the best way possible!
"emotional "
I was captivated by the storyline from the start. I felt like I was actually experiencing all the heartache and uncertainty Sadie was. Very well written & narrated.
"The not so pretty side of love"
I loved this book because it was real. It showed love in all its forms, some not very pretty. It narrated the tale of a woman unhappy in her marriage, detailing her emotions and how someone else provided comfort when her husband did not. This book is gritty, sexy, sad. It's real life, not perfect and bittersweet. I get the ending, I do, but without wanting to spoil it, I wish it ended differently.
Yes I will listen again. I think you get more out of it the second time
Finn, he is honest and sounds lovely
Andi does them all very well. Her voice is great for the part of Sadie though
Yes near the end when Sadie has to make a decision of husband or lover
The only thing that disappointed me was the ending. I was hoping for an epilogue to give us some insight into the future, unless there is going to be a sequel........?

Britain must solve "Catholic Question" to amend royal rules: Clegg
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain must change its laws to allow a future king or queen to marry a Catholic despite "old prejudices and old fears" that this might imperil ties between the monarchy and the Church of England, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg said on Tuesday.
Presenting a bill to parliament that would end 300-year-old laws that ban future monarchs from marrying Catholics, he said the rules were from a "bygone era".
The amendments would also end the primacy of male heirs to the British throne, meaning that the claim to the throne of the first child of Prince William and his pregnant wife Kate Middleton, if a girl, would not be usurped by younger brothers.
"Today we do not support laws which discriminate on either religious or gender grounds. They have no place in modern Britain, and certainly not in our monarchy," said Clegg, during the second reading of the bill to amend succession.
Despite having widespread support must pass through several other stages of scrutiny before becoming law.
Plans to allow heirs to the throne to marry Catholics have raised concerns about the religion in which children from the union will be raised, given British monarchs are also Supreme Governor of the Church of England.
Since the time of King Henry VIII and England's break with the Roman Catholic church in the 16th century, the ruling English - now British - monarch has been the head of the now 80 million-strong Anglican communion.
"There is huge potential tension ... It is important to ensure that the monarch is not put in an invidious place in the context of which religion heirs to the throne or those in line to the throne are marrying," Ian Lang, who sits in parliament's upper chamber, said earlier this month.
Media reports have also indicated that Prince Charles, Prince William's father, has expressed concerns about the consequences on the English church of changing succession rules. Continued...

The 2011 Boston Red Sox were in distress: the team missed the playoffs, had key free agents departing with no clear answers on the farm, and a starting rotation that while hyped at the start of the season, with the addition of a good Josh Beckett, finished by under-performing. In 2006 this solution included a young potential ace from Japan, fresh off an MVP award for carrying Team Japan to the championship of the first ever World Baseball Classic.
This year, the last piece of the puzzle in the Red Sox most difficult offseason in a long time may be the trickiest: bidding on Yu Darvish, should he become available. Matsuzaka did not work out the way anyone had expected, but should the team "learn" from that experience and avoid the next pitcher to journey from Japan to America? Absolutely not. Pitchers are always risky, but when a team strikes the right guy, the results often speak for themselves.
Because he is not yet a free agent, Yu Darvish must be posted by his Japanese team, the Nippon-Ham Fighters, in order to pitch in the Major Leagues for the 2012 season. Like Daisuke Matsuzaka, this means teams that are interested in acquiring his services must first win a blind bid and then proceed to sign the righthander to a contract on top of that. However, not all of this combined amount is part of the payroll. When the Red Sox won the right to negotiate with Matsuzaka it cost a pretty penny: $51.1 million dollars. Although his contract and the posting fee totaled over $100 million dollars, Matsuzaka was not showing up as an approximately $16 million player: only his contract, a more reasonable six years and $52 million dollars, is included in the total team salary.
The posting fee is essentially a check from John Henry to the corresponding team in Japan. Just like buying a soccer team, a race car, or whatever else a billionaire wants to invest in, the posting fee is a small price to pay when it can be spent from funds outside the Major League operating payroll. Yahoo! Sports' Jeff Passan hears that the posting fee for Yu Darvish will likely exceed $30 million, even if it is lower than the $51.1 million paid to negotiate with Matsuzaka. Teams could be scared off after Matsuzaka's disappointing performance in the American League. Or perhaps $30 million may be closer to the true price to acquire negotiation rights; no one was reporting a bid anywhere close to the Red Sox winning amount last time around.
The winning bidder is the only negotiator, free from the effect of the "mystery team" and the Japanese player, should he not make a deal, would have to return to Japan and wait to be posted again in a year or reach free agency. Fifty million dollars, when not part of the payroll, is not a factor that will keep a business like the Boston Red Sox, combined with NESN and Fenway Sports Group income, from making an investment that could continue to build the brand in Asia. Taken in concert with the new CBA limiting the signing budget for amateur players, a strong relationship with Japanese league could prove to be more important in coming years.
Although there has been some discussion that Darvish's pending divorce could hinder the posting process, as his soon-to-be ex-wife would like to get a piece of his Major League payday on her way out, it is not a foregone conclusion that it will. We need to keep in mind the windfall to his current team for selling the rights to their ace as well: the Fighters will likely do everything they can to help Darvish resolve his personal issues so he can join MLB and they can receive financial compensation for his departure. Should they fail to post their ace, he will simply walk away as a free agent next year.
Yu Darvish has been incredible during his young career. This past season he threw 232 innings of 1.44 ERA dominance. His WHIP was a shiny 0.83 and the righthander compiled an amazing 276:36 strikeout to walk ratio. Even with the caveat that Japanese baseball is not equivalent to Major League Baseball, these numbers cannot be ignored. While in Japanese professional baseball, Matsuzaka never recorded a an ERA under 2.00; Darvish has done this five years running. Matsuzaka was certainly a great pitcher in Japan, but following in his wake is a truly awesome force.
One advantage Darvish has over Matsuzaka is height: while Dice-K registers at six feet tall, Darvish is 6'5" which puts him in the size range of many successful MLB pitchers. It is possible that the extra inches will allow Darvish's offerings to play more like they have in his home country when he crosses the Pacific and has to face better hitters.
The biggest struggle for the Red Sox the past few seasons has been the starting rotation. In both 2010 and 2011 the rotation was much better on paper than in reality. With John Lackey and Daisuke Matsuzaka sidelined for the 2012 season the Red Sox are left with Josh Beckett, Jon Lester, and Clay Buchholz. While this group is certainly enough to carry the team when backed up by a couple solid back-of-the-rotation guys, as they say, you can never have too much pitching.
C.J. Wilson is likely to command a five or six year deal for approximately $100 million, all of it as payroll, and require the team the signs him to give up a draft pick. The lower-level free agents like Mark Buehrle are unlikely to be bargains themselves. Randy Wolf, as veteran lefty, signed a three year deal with the Brewers for just under $30 million dollars a couple years ago – $10 million per year isn't that unrealistic for a back-end or mid-level guy.
The Red Sox ownership group has the money to pay the Nippon-Ham Fighters for Darvish's rights. They made a commitment to build up their presence in Japan when they signed Matsuzaka and this is the next logical step. If other teams are scared to invest because of Matsuzaka that's all the more reason for the Sox to jump in.

- Love it! Review by sissy cuckold
Easy to get on and off. you might want to add lube to the spikes to make it less painful while screwing them in... or maybe not. Doesn't take long to make an impression. Best price i have seen is on CG too. Looking at some for the twins now.

- Brutally fantastic Review by TC1857
This thing is a fantastic torture device. The tightness of the ring itself enhances the sensitivity of the penis head, then you screw the spikes in and it's mind blowing torture. I haven't even tried to add weights yet.
(Posted on 10/16/16)
- well made and exciting to use Review by Tweedledum
As with other chain gang products, the glans ring with spikes is well made
with a fine finish. Putting it on is part of the fun and then screwing the spikes
in adds to the fun. Extra weight added helps.

- High quality Review by nkdwhtguy
I was looking for something that I could wear at different times of the day. I was surprised how heavy, polished, and attractive this piece of jewelry is. The spikes are easy to adjust to make the ring larger or smaller. Has a unique feel when walking with this on.

CG team again excels, just arrived and I love it. screwed down all the way and the best feeling ever once I had an erection. I'm not a CBT enthusiast but that may be changing.
Thanks again team great job.

- worth the pain Review by Trailsailor
Well made and will stimulate with every movement. Can tighten down to however
much pain you want to inflict. The points are sharp enough for me, they leave some
mark but haven't drawn blood.
(Posted on 4/4/15)
- An Excellent Purchase for any CBT Fan Review by hrychst4u
The glans ring with spikes is well wrought and any CBT enthusiast should have one. The weight of the piece is excellent and really weighs down the penis head. The spikes are sufficiently sharp to deliver the kind of bite a CBT practitioner can be proud to endure. It is a good value and one of the best pieces I have found.
(Posted on 1/6/15)
- Great item for cbt! Review by backslider
I first saw this for sale on another website, but they had discontinued it before I could buy it. Very disappointed! Now I'm glad, because ChainGang's price was so much better. If you're into cbt, you need this. I could wish the spikes were a bit sharper (I'm thinking of the extra-sharp spikes sometimes offered for Mike's Spikes), but these are sharp enough for a very sensitive area of the body. Excellent quality, fit and finish. Thanks for a great item at a great price.

Breaking out of your usual colour palette is like trying to give up any other addiction. You get an initial buzz and general feeling of "on top of the world-ness", only to be plagued by thoughts of, what the hell was I thinking when I threw out all those fags/poured the vodka down the sink/decided to wear lime green eye shadow for a change?
But the fact is, change for change's sake is often liberating. And, as you can barely move for citrus colours at the moment, I thought I'd have a break from my staple diet of reds, pinks and the occasional purple, to give them a try.
I've never really got on with yellow. It looks great on flowers, walls can just about get away with it, but on human beings it's seldom flattering. Forget about being taken seriously if you're wearing yellow, and don't expect to get many compliments - I mean, have you ever heard the words, "Wow, her yellow skirt was amazing"? Exactly.
In fact, all citrus colours - yellow, green and orange - are notoriously hard to pull off, especially anywhere near your face. But lime greens and lemon yellows are everywhere just now, and that's as true for make-up as it is for clothes. So it's either ignore them and hope they'll go away, or figure out how to wear them without looking like a human beach ball.
"Never try to shade using citrus. It's a fashion statement, so don't try to give yourself better definition using it," advises make-up artist Mary Greenwell, who has worked with the likes of Naomi Campbell and Alek Wek. "With black skin, don't forget that silvers become greys, so when you are using citrus, make sure you stay away from the silver side - if you are using yellow, stay on the gold side of yellow, if you are using lime, stay on the gold side of lime, and the same with orange. The darker your skin, the warmer the colour you use has to be."
One word of caution: yellow nails don't work. No matter how many coats or how bright it is, you'll end up looking like you've just put out your 50th Woodbine of the day. Classy.

Interesting fact about Jacqui!! I liked seeing a chapter of this from the trio's point of view . . . Jacqui's ignorance was getting old :) Very sweet ending to the chapter . . .
Author's Response: Joy
Thanks. Well be returning to Jacquis perspective next chapter, but there will be more third-person chapters, too.-N-
HI, Wonderfull gift to come back from a Key Club chaperoning weekend to a new chapter!!!
Still trying to remember if we have met the Wake's in any of your other stories yet: but then, you have mentioned that you are working on the next chapter of A&S, so maybe we will meet them then.
I do like the way you have been having us go back to your other tailes (even if it is a chapter or so back) to recall a character or event as it comes to play in other stories.
Can't wait for more.
Glad my theory on Jackiw was somewhat correct, just wonder which (or both) kids display magical ablilites first now that they are in nearly daily contact with magic.
Author's Response:
Thanks for the review.
The Wakes will appear in Chapter 5 of Hunters and Prey which is the sequel to Aurors and Schoolgirls. (I can be that precise.) Hopefully you dont need to read my other stuff to know whats going on, although reading it will give you more background.
Well be back to Jacquis perspective for the next chapter. This chapter was almost entirely things you need to know which Jacqui cant find out about. There will be two (or three) third person pov chapters, but mostly Im sticking with Jacqui.
great!!! I know I say the same thing every time but it's true! so keep up the good work, and I'll be waiting on whatever you update next!!!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. Currently in progress is the next chapter of this, Drakeshaugh Dragon, Aurors and Schoolgirls, and Epithalamium. -N-
I really like this story so far. The idea of the potters living and interacting with muggles is a great one. The tie ins with your other stories about the MIT is also really great because it builds more of a background around the story. I really wish you would update more frequently though, I had to go reread the whole story to remember what was going on when I saw you had posted a new chapter.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review.
All of my stories tie together, I hope. At least they all take place on the same timeline. This story is very slow to write, and it will remain so unles (as I did for this chapter) I abandon Jacqui as an narrator. She must see enough for you to figure out what's happening, but not enough to get herself Obliviated. I'm trying for a hapter per month. -N-
Author's Response: Thanks -N-
I've read this chapter 5x now lol,my fav so far.poor Mary...I love that harry s showing his love to his family openly n will protect them. Pls pls pls update soooooooooon.
Author's Response: Thank you.
You're one of very few who has sympathy for Mary. The next chapter is in the queue.-N-
I really love your stories, you're one of my favourites! Can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: Thanks. The next xchapter should be with my beta soon. -N-
Oh you keep on teasing us!
Will James do or say something that will break the Statute of Secrets?
Love this story and the way your stories all connect up and compliment each other and most importantly they keep to cannon.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review.
James isn't sure what "the statue of secrets" is! But how does a four year old keep secrets? :-DMy main worry now is that Pottermore will reveal stuff which contradicts my carefully plotted timeline :-(
Love it!!
Author's Response: Thanks :D -N-
I can see the short story now "Weekend on Bikes" where the adults ride to the coastside while leaving the kids with who:Ron and 'Erminoe????
NIce character/watch out for muggles chapter, can't wait for more plot.
As a new Pottermore sorted Hufflepuff (PotionSeeker57), I do like the Rivendell reference. Maybe my thoughts on Jaqui have been influnced by the house, somewhat magical.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review.
Yes, Mike is now wondering how to persuade his wife that he should buy a new bike. :D Lots more plot next chapter, plus a very important birthday.
I really should try to get onto Pottermore! -N-
Brilliant. Just brilliant. Canon Ginny and Harry worked seamlessly into a world with OC's. It's really nice to see them interact with people other than R & H (and I a huge R/H fan). You perfectly conveyed Harry's discomfort with revealing his past to Muggles with plausible explanations. I hope Harry doesn't have to go into work! Can't wait to read about the BBQ I honestly don't know how you juggle all these different stories and are able to keep every one straight! Your head must be a jumble of plot bunnies!!
Author's Response: Thank you.
Canon Ginny and Harry my favourite compliment :-DThis is the 100th review after only seven chapters, making this my most reviewed (chaptered) story here.
Ron and Hermione will appear in chapter 9. Youll find out a little more about the werewolf murders in the next couple of chapters too. (This story was supposed to be Harry hunting for a serial killer, it still is, but from a particularly strange angle perhaps because two plot bunnies fought, and turned into this!) A jumble of plot bunnies? The next chapter of Aurors and Schoolgirls is I the queue and it is (almost) plotted to the end. The two sequels to A&S are both trying desperately to escape into the public arena, but they are still growing. This (Strangers) will be less than 30 chapters. Moons will be six chapters (and it is plotted to the end). MLT is moving very slowly. The Lavender/MIT/Vampire story remains nailed in its coffin and theres a Ron/Hermione adventure locked in a crate desperately trying to escape, too.
Great story so far, really liking it, PLEASE UPDATE SOON :)
Author's Response: Thanks. Chapter 8 (Work and Play) is now with my beta. -N-
ur amazin need more fast!!!!!
Author's Response: Thanks. More, yes, but this story takes a lot of writing, I'm aiming for a chapter per month. -N-
Self-Indulgent nothing! You have created a canon universe. It's natural to include the Moons if there is a killer werewolf. Given how Lavender has been brought up through your stories, hearing about her was perfect. I'm glad she had a kid and is ok so far. Also yay for other weasley's
Author's Response: Thanks.
My timeline stretches to nineteen years later and beyond. I hope that you really dont need to have read every other Lavender story to figure out why she appears in this story.The furthest Ive gone into the future is The Confession of Augusta Longbottom chapter in Tales of the Battle. And Ive just discovered that Tales has been nominated in this years Quicksilver Quills. :-D
Not to mention old scars, Sirius's bike and Harpies shirts that Harry wears
Author's Response: i have a lot of fun with that stuff :-D -N-
Love all these chapters. They seem to get better with each chapter. I love the mentions of George and Lavender. I like seeing Molly, Terry and Harry's neice and nephew. It would make my day if Ron and Hermione showed up to the bbq though I acknowledge that that isn't a likely possibility. Ron interacting with muggles and Hermione elbowing him in the ribs everytime he screws up makes me smile. Keep up the good work
Author's Response: Ron and Hermione won't be at the bbq. They will, however, make an appearance very soon as will various other Weasleys. Throwing in snippets about George, and especially Lavender as they relate to my other stories is probably a little self indulgent. But Mrs Moon might even make an appearance. -N-
wow. . .i cant wait for ur next chapter to come. . . pls update it fast
Author's Response: Thank you, I hope to update soon. -N-
I really love this story, it's well written (and not all fanfics are) and i really like idea! my only request is that you update more often! i check, like, everyday to see if you have, and then i'm disappointed :(
Author's Response: Thanks for the review.
Strangers has been nominated for the best post-Hogwarts story in this years QSQs, the only one of my stories to achieve this honour. It is also my most-reviewed story (93 reviews for 7 chapters is staggering).The next update is half-written, but if I increase the frequency of my updates of this story, which other story suffers? Aurors and Schoolgirls? Moons? MLT? A&S has twice the favourites and gets twice the reads of this, so it is also a priority. I like writing Moons (although not many people like to read it). So, MLT will be delayed (as it missed the challenge deadline) but the other three will progress as quickly as I can manage.
Great chapter!
Author's Response: Thanks. -N-
Fabulous writing and amazing story so far. Can't wait to read more!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. The next chapter is slowly inching towards completion. -N-

Incognito Briefcase Lets Graffiti Artists Work Without Getting Caught [Video]
Bob Partington uses a hidden compartment in his case to secretly tag the streets of NYC.
Artist Bob Partington recently invented a new way of tagging without getting caught. Street artists can now express their artistic talents without looking over their shoulder every second. This mechanical tagging device was designed to allow a more "hands-free" approach.
Partington's briefcase has an internal compartment that holds a can of spray paint and a stencil. The briefcase also has an opening on the bottom for the paint to be sprayed onto desired surfaces. While the design is somewhat bulky, it doesn't discredit the fact that the briefcase camouflages the user's taboo intentions.
If you want to build one for your own personal enjoyment, or if you just want to see the peculiar briefcase here is the video:

Las Vegas has become the world's most popular holiday destination, with more visitors per year than any other city. That's quite an achievement for a city that's sprung from the Nevada desert and become a scarcely believable playground for all tastes.
Las Vegas hotels come in all shapes and sizes imaginable, from the Luxor pyramid, to the glitz of Caesar's Palace through to the decadent luxury that is the Wynn & the Encore at the end of the Strip.
While the city is marketed primarily as a place for adults, there's plenty for families to do as well. Most of the hotels in Las Vegas have catered in some ways for the underage, Excalibur has nightly jousting shows over dinner, Circus Circus has an indoor rollercoaster and amusement park & the MGM has a fantastic five pool complex complete with waterfalls & grottos.
Vegas is also the worlds largest conference and convention destination – you can be pretty sure that every hotel on the strip (and a lot of the off strip Vegas hotels) are hosting at least one gathering on any given day of the year.
With more meeting space than any other city in the world, Las Vegas hosts a number of high profile events throughout the year, including the ABC Kids Expo, the International Vision Expo West 2014, the Solar Energy Trade Show and Mr. Olympia. The city has a number of luxurious convention facilities, including the Cashman Center, the Sands Expo & Convention Center and the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The large casinos offer a variety of dining options, from buffets to gourmet food to simple cafes. Also, Las Vegas is known for great steakhouses with high quality meat cooked to perfection. This city is also home to the famous "Heart Attack Grill" which serves incredibly high calorie menu items such as the "Triple Bypass Burger". Most of the hotels on the Las Vegas strip feature both café type eateries through to fine dining, if you haven't been to the SW steakhouse at the Wynn (named after Steve Wynn's initials!) then you're missing out. The wine selection is second to none and the food is to die for.
Major Points of Interest
The most famous attraction in Vegas is gambling and there are countless enormous glittering casinos where you can spend hours hypnotised by card games and slot machines. This city also offers lots of great nightly entertainment, including comedy shows, live musical theatre, erotic dance clubs, variety shows and circus acts. Also, get a thrill on the rides, such as "The X-Scream" at the Stratosphere Hotel and "The Roller Coaster" at the New York New York Hotel. That's not all that Las Vegas has to offer though, you're only a short drive away from untouched desert with some of the best vistas in the States, Red Rock Canyon is less than an hour away, as is the world famous Hoover Dam, or the more adventurous could always book a helicopter ride and see the Grand Canyon.
Las Vegas is a shopping lover's playground, with many great malls to choose from. The Fashion Show Mall offers sweet styles from popular designers, the Town Square provides relaxing open air shopping and the Las Vegas Premium Outlets boasts discounts on your favorite brands.
The city's most important sporting event of the year is the finals of the annual Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association circuit. It is held in December at the Thomas & Mack Center. A number of hotels in Las Vegas have also hosted the annual World Series of Poker, most recently the Rio Hotel and Casino has held that honor attracting tens of thousands of professional players from across the globe. Las Vegas also hosts the USA Sevens, part of an annual circuit of events for rugby sevens teams.

The Dramatic Writer's Companion
Tools to Develop Characters, Cause Scenes, and Build Stories
Moss Hart once said that you never really learn how to write a play; you only learn how to write this play. Crafted with that adage in mind, The Dramatic Writer's Companion is designed to help writers explore their own ideas in order to develop the script in front of them. No ordinary guide to plotting, this handbook starts with the principle that character is key. "The character is not something added to the scene or to the story," writes author Will Dunne. "Rather, the character is the scene. The character is the story."
Having spent decades working with dramatists to refine and expand their existing plays and screenplays, Dunne effortlessly blends condensed dramatic theory with specific action steps—over sixty workshop-tested exercises that can be adapted to virtually any individual writing process and dramatic script. Dunne's in-depth method is both instinctual and intellectual, allowing writers to discover new actions for their characters and new directions for their stories.
Dunne's own experience is a crucial element of this guide. His plays have been selected by the Eugene O'Neill Theatre Center for three U.S. National Playwrights Conferences and have earned numerous honors, including a Charles MacArthur Fellowship, four Bay Area Theatre Critics Circle Awards, and two Drama-Logue Playwriting Awards. Thousands of individuals have already benefited from his workshops, and The Dramatic Writer's Companion promises to bring his remarkable creative method to an even wider audience.

Fixing Common Script Problems
"In his new handbook for writers Dunne adheres to the idea that character development is essential to telling a story. . . . Dunne employs his wealth of experience as the current resident playwright at Chicago Dramatists, a Charles MacArthur Fellowship honoree, a former O'Neill Theatre Center dramaturg and an award-winning author of such plays as How I Became an Interesting Person, Love and Drowning, and Hotel Desperado to give writers a blueprint on how to examine their ideas in depth in order to develop their plays and screenplays."
"Dunne has taken everything he knows from the powerful dual standpoints of an award-winning playwright and a master teacher to create the book we've been waiting for. It's all there—from every angle and every perspective—how to bring fascinating, fully-developed characters in conflict out into the light and onto the stage."
"Dunne mixes an artist's imagination and intuition with a teacher's knowledge of the craft of dramatic writing. It is an irresistible combination, producing a book which is simultaneously astute and imaginative. . . . No one can teach anyone to become a dramatic writer. But it is possible to learn how to improve your writing skills. It is possible to be provoked into thinking differently, into adding different colours and dimensions to your ideas, to extend the range of images in your head, to startle your imagination; in short, to be inspired into trying new approaches and methods. The Dramatic Writer's Companion has the potential to do all of that for a writer."
"A breath of fresh air. Whether you're working on your first play or your fortieth, preparing a first draft or polishing up a finished piece, The Dramatic Writer's Companion offers challenging, thought-provoking exercises rather than formulaic 'how-to' solutions. This is the kind of book that not only makes plays stronger; it makes writers stronger as well."
"The practical genius of Dunne's writing lessons proved invaluable to me in the development of the script for my own film, Mean Creek. I have read many books on scriptwriting, most a bunch of intellectual blather about themes and structure, whereas Dunnesl's approach to writing is grounded in specific and useful exercises that a writer can actually employ at the moment of creation."
"Will Dunne lays out all the right questions with great precision and elegance. In the process he coolly demystifies all the dramaturgical demons; they become nothing more than the routine technical challenges faced by any craftsman."
"Dunne meets the writer on his or her own terms, eye to eye. Unique, ambitious, and comprehensive, The Dramatic Writer's Companion contains practical writing exercises underscored by well-developed dramatic theory."
