|Reviews for Tsubame's Turning
| midnightblue123 chapter 11 . 11/11/2007
FINALLY! someone else other then the older guys get the spotlight! Great fic!
| Adelaide MacGregor chapter 11 . 12/11/2006
I liked it! Great job and well written. Although I hate Tomoe, I can see your view point, but still believe Kaoru is a better match with him. Like the mention of the lady vampire who used to be a Doctor by Sano at the beginning. Megumi I presume? Great ending. Simple but cute. Good luck!
| the sacred night chapter 1 . 6/18/2006
At first, I was really indignant for Katsu. When I saw that he'd been tricked as well, I was somewhat mollified, but I'm still leery of "it was too late to stop." I'm extremely curious about what he'll do now that he's changed her. She clearly would rather die than be a vamp, that much was obvious. He's not thinking clearly, I guess, because who would be? I also sincerely hope this "Meg" person who drugged her isn't Megumi, although Megumi's connections with drugs cannot be denied. Megumi never got involved with drugs of her own free will, and she's really not a bad person at all, so I hope you haven't made her one in this story.
| lolo popoki chapter 11 . 9/4/2005
It's finished! Cute ending, if a bit abrupt... I really wasn't expecting marriage at all :) Very well-written and original storyline; I really enjoyed reading this! And I like the fact that Kenshin was still with Tomoe in this :) I liked Battousai's character in this story... you portrayed him very nicely. Good luck on any future writing!
| Nekotsuki chapter 11 . 9/3/2005
Your story is original, and when it comes to disgusting revelations, I've seen far worse. It did tend to end abruptly but that doesn't stop it from being a well thought out and Original! piece of vampire fic. Feel free to keep experimenting!
...and I should get around to replying to that letter...heh. Take care!
| Zoleth chapter 10 . 8/25/2005
Nice. There are many vampire stories that can be considered really original. This one can. I like it.
| lolo popoki chapter 10 . 8/21/2005
I see that Tsubame's starting to come to some kind of realization about what exactly constitutes a "monster"... I liked the interaction between her and Yahiko... so cute :) And Kenshin's married? Hmm... now that's interesting. Kaoru or Tomoe? Someone else entirely? And are they a vampire too?
| XKenKao12X chapter 1 . 8/20/2005
Arent u the person that drew the vampire rk fan manga?
| Nekotsuki chapter 10 . 8/20/2005
Hee, was that the 'disgusting' revelation? It's not so bad. It's still good, and this little scene between Tsubame and Yahiko is very cute (er, in a vampire-y sort of way...
| lolo popoki chapter 9 . 8/15/2005
Oh eeww... ;P Bathing in blood? (*shudders*) Very interesting chapter though :) Even though poor Tsubame was the one that did it, I think that woman definitely needed to be taken out...
A couple things... one, when Yahiko is telling Kenshin about the circuit breaker, you missed a quotation mark; and two, you have it set so you can't recieve anonymous reviewers :) That might be a reason why some people don't review.
| lolo popoki chapter 8 . 8/7/2005
Ack! Sorry it took me couple days to get around to reviewing this chapter!
It's Battousai! Glad to see him make an appearance! And it's cute to see Tsubame's thoughts on Yahiko... she seems to be developing feelings for him also :) I can't wait to see how things go in the next chapter!
| Nekotsuki chapter 7 . 7/30/2005
This chapter was particularly nice. You say the story might be cursed, but remember that persephonesfolly is an unknown name on and people are less likely to peer at it. Have faith in your very nifty writing skills! So please don't fret, and continue posting this story. I like it a great deal. (For the record, when TJ got up to chapter seven, I only had eleven reviews. ;;)
| lolo popoki chapter 7 . 7/30/2005
Hmm... things are really getting interesting! I wonder what that guy is up to...? Tsubame's turning out to have some useful talents, and it's so cute the way Yahiko acts around her :) Can't wait to see what happens next!
| lolo popoki chapter 6 . 7/26/2005
Aww... Yahiko the embarassed vampire :) Poor Tsubame's been out of touch with modern society for so long; it must be quite an adjustment for her. I can't wait to see how she ends up interacting with Sano in the next chapter! After the knife attack that is :)
| lolo popoki chapter 5 . 7/25/2005
I'm glad to see Yahiko recovered, and that Tsubame's finally starting to listen more :) It's really a shame that Katsu had died though... Well, I'm looking forward to the next chapter!

Before being a Photographer, I drew and sketched (I still do its just not a large focus for now). The point that I am trying to make is that I am an Artist and this is what I feel that sets me a part from other photographers. Another is my drive to recreate your dream pictures while accomplishing a photo story through the dream.
I love to instill moments in time, such as candid photography. I love taking photos that cannot be replaced, because it's a challenge to capture something that is once in a lifetime. Also, I love to do studio photography since those photos are more controlled which can allow me to do more creative things with lighting and composure.
Please, by all means view and share my work on all of my social networks, I am on most of the popular ones, including Pinterest and Tumblr.
Contact me personally, in the contact section, regarding questions and concerns with things such as pricing or availability.

The Value Of Ruins
Between The Alexandrian War of 48 BCE and the Muslim conquest of 642 CE, the Library of Alexandria, containing a million scrolls and tens of thousands of individual works was completely destroyed, its contents scattered and lost. An appreciable percentage of all human knowledge to that point in history was erased. Yet in his novella "The Congress", Jorge Luis Borges wrote that "every few centuries, it's necessary to burn the Library of Alexandria".
In his session James will ask if, as we build ourselves new structures of knowledge and certainty, as we design our future, should we be concerned with the value of our ruins?
With a background in both computing and traditional publishing James Bridle attempts to bridge the gaps between technology and literature. He runs Bookkake, a small independent publisher and writes about books and the publishing industry at booktwo.org. In 2009 he helped launch Enhanced Editions, the first e-reading application with integrated audiobooks.

Is This Food Racist?
How do our assumptions about people affect our assumptions about their food? And how do their assumptions about our food affect how we feel about ourselves? What happens when chefs cook a cuisine they weren't born into? And what happens when there's a backlash? Our friend Dan Pashman, host of WNYC Studio's The Sporkful, has launched a special series of episodes called "Other People's Food," which aims to explore exactly these questions. Dan talks with Brooke about the project so far.

Lee Bermejo & Jock Appear at Splash Page Comic Art Booth for SDCC 2017
June 13, 2017 by Colin Solan
Filed under California, Comic Books, Comic-Con International, Convention News
Like every year, Splash Page Comic Art will be setting up at San Diego Comic Con in Booth #4400. This is near the Hall G Entrance.
Lee Bermejo, artist of Suiciders, Batman: Noel, The Joker Graphic Novel, Lex Luthor: Man of Steel, and much more, is offering a rare opportunity to receive a hand drawn, one of a kind, convention style commission to be picked up at the 2017 San Diego Comic Con, by July 23rd.
We are taking three (3) – One Character Convention Style Commissions on a FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE basis.
They are drawn in pencils, inks and inkwash on a piece of 11 x 17″ comic art board with most of the fills being inks and wash with a simple but cool background design (Wonder Woman Example shown below).
These are NOT Lee's cover quality super tight detailed pencil cover like commissions as those are considerably more expensive and take a lot more time. These are still amazing examples of Lee's work and great values.
They MUST be picked up at San Diego Comic Con 2017 (July 19th – 23rd) by the person paying for the commission or a representative for them (that they have provided the name & phone number).
The Price is $1500 and must be paid using Personal Paypal sent to (Friends/family).
Please Email Mark (Mark@[at]splashpageart.com) if you are ready to purchase a Lee Bermejo Convention Commission.
Jock will be offering a FREE sketch (limit 1 per person) when you buy a minimum of $500 worth his original art (available at the link). This includes covers, splashes, individual and multiple page purchases as long as it meets or exceeds the $500 amount.
The art may be purchased prior to the show or at the San Diego Comic Con. The sketch MUST be asked for and waited for at his SDCC signing at the Splash Page Art Booth 4400. You may have a representative pickup your art & sketch, but they must wait the entire time of the signing and pickup the art. We will not accept sketch ideas ahead of time.
A date and time will be posted in the near future. Jock will only be able to take on 5-10 sketches total so we'll take five guaranteed sketches ahead of time on a first come, first serve basis. If you are not one of the first five to purchase pages, we'll take the next five first come, first serve purchases at SDCC.
Please go through the checkout process to purchase Jock's art and mention that you are wanting to qualify for your free SDCC sketch.

Comments Off on Lee Bermejo Commission Offered for SDCC 2014
Press Release:
Lee Bermejo, artist of Batman: Noel, The Joker Graphic Novel, Lex Luthor: Man of Steel, and much more, is offering a rare opportunity to receive a cover quality, hand drawn, one of a kind, fully rendered commission to be picked up at the 2014 San Diego Comic Con, the week of July 24-27. This is being run as an Ebay Auction, and can be seen at the link…
The commission will be a 1 character piece with detailed backgrounds on a piece of 11 X 17" comic art board. The picture shown is not the actual item, but is an example of a previous fully rendered commission piece.
While Lee has offered sketches and less detailed convention opportunities before, this is the first time ever in which he has offered a cover quality commission to be picked up at the SDCC before. He'll work on the commission in his studio prior to the show so it will be available to be picked up before the end of the show. While you may choose the character, Lee does retain the right to refrain from drawing certain characters so please have a backup idea ready. These two auctions are a very rare occasion and most likely your only opportunity to have Lee do this level Please stop by our booth number 4400 at the San Diego Comic Con to pick up your art.
In order to participate in this auction, you must:
Pick up the piece yourself or have a friend/representative pick up the piece for you. We will not ship the art. If you do not plan on being at the San Diego Comic Con, or do not have anyone who can definitely pick it up for you, please do not bid.
You must be able to pay in full via the personal paypal (friends and family) method of Paypal at the close of this auction or make other arrangements to pay in cash/check immediately after the close of the auction. Failure to do so will result in a second chance offer being sent out to the next highest bidder.

Online job ads slump for eighth month,Georgia Wilkins
Published: December 3 2012 - 11:48AM
Unemployment is expected to worsen in coming months, with the amount of jobs advertised online and in newspapers falling for the eighth consecutive month.
The ANZ job ad index, a key indicator for the future jobs market, declined 2.9 per cent in November, following a fall of 4.6 per cent in October.
The total number of jobs advertised during the month was the lowest since January 2010 and 17 per cent lower than the same time last year.
ANZ's head of economics and property research Ivan Colhoun said the data had been particularly weak over the last four months, especially in the mining states Western Australia and Queensland.
"The data is signalling that the unemployment rate is going to continue to rise and the labour market is going to remain soft in the period immediately ahead," he said.
"That reinforces the view that we will see interest rates continue to fall." Mr Colhoun said the most concerning aspect of the data was that employment in the non-mining states was not strong enough to offset declines from the mining boom.
"This means we need to keep interest rates coming down," he said.
Over the last six months, job advertisements in Western Australia fell on average by 6 per cent each month and in Queensland the average monthly decline was around 4 per cent, he said. The decline in newspaper job advertisements in Western Australia was particularly sharp, falling a total of 22 per cent over the last three months.

I love to use fresh organic spring greens to make a nice salad from time to time, but one thing that I don't like going to the refrigerator and finding that my once beautiful spring greens aren't so lovely anymore. In fact, they've gotten all wilted. And I am sorry to say that I have thrown plenty of spring mix away because it's gotten wilted.
But, you can save a lot of wilted greens from the compost bin or garbage can with just a few simple steps!
First, you'll need:
- A large bowl
- Ice
- Cold water (filtered preferred)
- Greens
Fill the bowl with water and add ice. Add the greens and allow them to soak for at least 30 minutes (longer is better, so soaking them overnight would be great!)
The greens will absorb the water and will become far more crispy and usable. If you don't believe me, here's a video that shows this tips being done as an experiment.

Amber Heard has been ordered to appear in court after she illegally imported her pet dogs into Australia on husband Johnny Depp's private plane.
The A-list actress, whose dogs were threatened with the death sentence if they weren't removed from the country back in May, has been issued with a summons.
The Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions has confirmed that Heard was delivered the summons on Tuesday, requiring her to appear in court.
A statement read: "All animals entering Australia must have an import permit, and have undergone relevant testing and health checks signed off by a government veterinarian from the exporting country to ensure pests and diseases from overseas are not brought here."
The 29-year-old is thought to have transported Yorkshire terriers Pistol and Boo Boo into Brisbane where she was visiting Depp while he shot scenes for the forthcoming Pirates of the Caribbean film.
Failing to declare the animals, the authorities only became aware of their existence when a Gold Coast dog groomer posted a picture of them on Facebook.
Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce then demanded that the dogs be removed from the country within 50 hours or be put down.
Following the incident on Australia's Channel 7 network, Heard said: "Pistol's with me today. She's doing just fine.
"I have a feeling we're going to avoid the land Down Under from now on, just as much as we can. Just to avoid certain politicians there."
She added: "I don't know, I guess everyone tries to go for their 15 minutes, including some government officials."Reuse content

A Letter from the Very Reverend Archimandrite Nektarios Serfes to Mr. Nikola Gruevksi, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Macedonia FYROM

3 November 2006
Prime Minister Nikola Gruevksi
Bul. Illinen bb
1000 Skopje
Republic of Macedonia FYROM
Dear Mr. Prime Minister Nikola Gruevksi,
Humbly I greet you with the peace and love of our Lord God, and I pray all is well with you!
I am at this hour addressing you Mr. Prime Minister, and to the Good citizens of your beloved Macedonia FYROM.
I place before you this request and to all the good citizens of your beloved Macedonia (FYROM) on behalf of myself and many, many other concerned Americans that you reconsider the second sentence imposed on His Beatitude Archbishop Jovan of Ohrid, Metropolitan of Skopje, and release him immediately.
I write this appeal not only as President of the Archbishop Jovan Fund USA, but also as a simple Orthodox Christian who grows increasingly concerned at the unfortunate message sent out to all the world when Christians persecute other Christians over disputes involving territorial jurisdictions.
Archbishop Jovan has now been imprisoned for well over 87 days as of 3 November 2006; the situation reflects badly upon the Macedonian Orthodox Church, the Macedonian Government, and the Macedonian nation, and indeed, upon Christianity itself. Christians, perhaps more than any other people, should insist on religious freedom and should honor each individual's human rights. At the present time, there is a rising tide of non-Christians who have erroneously embraced a distorted view of Christianity and see Christians as their enemy. It is therefore especially critical now for all Christians to stand together in support of one another and to show them to be people who can settle disputes with grace, dignity, with God's love, and without violence.
Please refrain from further accusations against the Venerable and Respected Archbishop Jovan who continues his imprisonment as a consequence of the disputed accusations already made against him. For his sake and for the sake of your own standing in the eyes of the world, I beseech you to release him and to seek a more appropriate way to settle the issues and questions that have led to his imprisonment. It is unseemly for a pastor to be treated as a criminal because he attempted to minister to his flock as best he understood the need to do.
It is also a violation of many persons' human rights to deprive them of their choice of worship within the Serbian Orthodox Church under the Patriarchate of His Holiness, Patriarch Pavel, even if these persons are citizens of Macedonia, or some other nation which has a national church of its own. God respects all nations but He does not draw national borders; He sees each individual soul regardless of nationality and He holds accountable the intention within each individual heart.
Please heed this humble appeal I make to you on behalf of all concerned Christians: restore to the honorable Archbishop Jovan his freedom to serve God in accord with his conscience and his vows. If he is at fault in any aspect of his pastoral practice, leave it to his superiors within the Serbian Orthodox Church to correct and discipline him. This is not a matter that should be dealt with by police action and imprisonment. Restore to him his cassock, his cross, his panagia, and his Holy Gospel. Let him go about serving God's people in the knowledge that God Himself will ultimately judge his performance of these duties. Do not further deprive him of partaking in the Sacrament of the Holy Mystery of the Lord's Supper, for this is truly what sustains the very life of a Christian. At the same time allow that desire to visit him and meet with him.
We well know in the West that the physical health of Archbishop Jovan is not good, and we hope he would receive all necessary medical attention.
At the same hour it would as well be very honorable that the Archdiocese of Archbishop Jovan has the right to exist as a free, practicing, religion within Macedonia.
Your Government has asserted its desire that all its citizens be free; it has claimed to adhere to international standards of human rights and religious freedom. Now show the world that Macedonia stands by these principles in actual practice and do what is most honorable in regards to Archbishop Jovan.
On my next visit to your beautiful country of Macedonia I earnestly hope that you and I may meet and talk.
May God bless Macedonia and guide its Government in accordance with His Wisdom and its Church with His loving Hand! May God grant His Peace to all nations.
Humbly in Christ our Lord,

Before I tell you all about him – just look how CUTE he is!!! I just had to share this fluff ball with you all!
So about 3 weeks ago we brought home a new pup! We've had Leo our Cavoodle for about 10 months now and felt he needed a friend. I was happy to get another small dog like Leo, but The Mr has always wanted another large breed dog. We have had Bullmastiffs in the past and love how they were a great family dog but also scary enough to scare away an intruder. We had a number of qualities we were looking for in a new breed, so the research began. We knew that The Mr wanted to get back into dog showing so he wanted a dog that would look great in the show ring. For it to come inside on the odd occasion it had to be a breed that didn't shed. And above all else, he had to be a great family dog. We also didn't mind a dog that was protective of his family, and would alert us to a visitor to the house. Google revealed maybe 2-3 large non shedding breeds and the Bouvier Des Flandres meet our needs.
I found a breeder in Victoria which was the closest to Wagga. We phoned them and as luck would have it, they had a 11 week old puppies that were ready. It was fate! We picked him up the very next weekend.
They are large, fluffy and non shedding. I think the non shedding bit is a stretch of the truth because they do shed, but due to their coat, the loose fur gets caught and doesn't drift all over my house. So yep, you guessed it – high maintenance! We will have to brush him about 3 times a week – yikes!! I am secretly hoping that The Mr just does it ha!
They are great with kids, and other dogs. I had to make sure that whatever we got, the new dog had to love Leo as much as we do. He will be BIG! His head should reach my hip and be about 45 – 50kgs. But so fluffy! Honestly, Ollie looks like a baby black bear at the moment. Check out daddy dog below, this photo does not show how big he actually is.
So far Ollie is the sweetest, biggest, funniest pup! The kids love him, Leo loves him and everyone who meets him falls in love but are shocked when I say he is only 3 months old. He is already as big as Leo! But like most pups, we aren't getting a lot of sleep. He will learn though!
He is growing so fast already! I will update with more pics as he grows because he is just so damned CUTE!!

Just ridiculous on the cute! I love big dogs too. I have a medium, freak of nature shedding dog that I love the guts out of. She is past 15 years now and has her old-lady issues she wont want me to mention. I really think studies could be done on her shedding capabilities to assist balding men!

The Flowerpot
The leaves are gently falling now..
and the hanging baskets are beginning to look rather forlorn...
Not the best ever show from them, but I'm pleased with their shows of colour as many of my pic's on here have shown.
Considering this is the first full year in our new abode.
Today it has continually rained and now the sun has finally woken up.
Yes its finally stopped raining.
The ground is now so wet I dare not attempt to dig it over, dare not start any new footings for walls as the forecast is still not good for tomorrow.
So!...looking around the garden for things to do...
Looks like its the baskets and planters time, to try and save any of the plants in them, fushias and others that maybe possible to save for next season.
So how has your gardening year gone- flower pot wise ?
I set my first ever petunia hanging basket this year (from petunias Bethani and I were given at a baby shower), and although it wasn't 'impressively' over abundant with flowers, I did enjoy watching it's continuous blossoms. Will have to do it again next season.
As your leaves fall ours are coming out with the blossom.
Now there's a thought, how can I spend 6 months in NZ or the US, that way I could have a truly 12 month garden
Easy come do our muttermutter should be garden
after today there is lot more to do, got a storm that has blown down 2 big trees next to house, 1 came onto house so had to be pulled off plus several more, Broken plastic roofing and now verry heavy rain pouring in holes onto verander
We had leaves falling yesterday/ last night sad they are still on the trees which fell too onto our roof and drive
big storm
For the past two days now I have been clearing out all the pots and planters in anticipation of spring. Slowly but surely saving various plants such as Fuchias and Geraniums, to be stored in the G/H over winter, hopefully.
Clearing the never ending trails of lobellias and other unwanted annuals.
8am this morning went and collected another load of bulbs, Alliums and Crocus, to replant with the hundreds of Daffs I now have, which were dug up dug up earlier this season.
As and when we get a few dryer days I may be able to start ridding the garden of falling leaves and a copious amount of rotting fallen fruit, mainly plums.
Well its time to get back to the planters... even though its perishing chilly today.
Its close to the time to store the Begonias and Dahlias, but as they are still flowering, full of buds I'll leave them a wee while longer.
And the next job..
I'm sure I'll think of something...beside raking up the leaves...
What are your plans over the next month or two?
And the next job..
I'm sure I'll think of something...beside raking up the leaves...
....no worries....I'm sure *someone* will help you find PLENTY to do. . .
(quietly chuckling here...)
We lost most of our bulbs to a frozen winter last (after moving) sooooo, I'll not have much to shift, but a few iris' will prob head to the gh for the winter. Oustide of that...we're startin from scratch....next year.
Once the weather allows me to sort out the last patch of soil in the bungalow garden then I can put bulbs in. That should get done this week.
Thing is - the flower plot may close down but there's months of work on the allotment which should keep me busy till the winter solstice. By which time I shall look up, think I've not cleaned the tubs and then it will be February and time to start seriously again.
Now there's a thought, how can I spend 6 months in NZ or the US, that way I could have a truly 12 month garden
thats a great idea DD
Ive got a load of bulbs to put in this week. Nasturtium, nicotiana, lobelia, begonia, dianthus all still got flowers.
Over the past few months of summer I've collect a fair few new perennial plants, as and when I've come across them at the right prices.
Most planted out into various large pots and planters.
Phlox, lobelllias dahlias, peonies and so on, all in the hope of finishing the next flower bed. Ever hopeful as usual, but still constructing the so said bed, as I've mainly concentrated on the vegetable garden this year.
So now its a matter of clearing display pots, re-potting the perennials and storing them so the bulbs can be planted out.
So yes I am still finding plenty to do, in between the rainy days.
As room is and will run out in the G/H, thankfully there is always the poly to fall back on. Not the best use of a poly, but needs must, has to be done.
Somehow I doubt the idea of a 12 month garden is more than a passing thought...
have a good day
And here's me thinking that housework and gardens were 12 month jobs .....
I reckon we all know all gardens are a full time job, maybe a couple of months when the snow, frosts or even its too wet to do much, but it doesn't stop dreamers like me
What's housework by the way?
Yesterday managed to turn one bed over and clear it, even though the soil was to say the least 'claggy'. A good solid walk board helped.
and the leaves are continuing to fall...
Since coming back off our Hol's I've now finally cleared the baskets and tubs ect, of all the annuals, along with a few perenials, enabling me to re-fill them with winter pansies, violas and bulbs.
Could do with a few other varieties , any suggestions would be more than welcome.
Now have 5.5 bags of spent compost. Over the past years I've always spread the compost over the garden. As, at our previous home the soil was very clay rich. Over the 27 years we were there and with adding manure it made one heck of a difference.
The soil in our now garden, yes does have some clay, but mainly reasonable quality soil. As I now have 5 darlek type compost bins, with well rotted vegetables and waste, At least 18 months old, I'm thinking of adding said bagged spent compost to the bins. Or should I just as in the past spread it around the garden? Your thoughts/ past experience would be more than welcome
My thoughts being by adding it to the darlek's compost will help bulk it up, ready to spread early next Spring..
I'd add it exactly for the purpose of bulking up for next spring.
(Glad to see you're back and no worse for wear...
.... I haven't gone anywhere yet and yer still kickin garden work out quicker than myself! .... I must take lessons!)
I dig spent compost straight into the most deprived areas of the allotment. It was a totally deprived clay plot when I took over in 2007 so anything is welcome. Compost follows on - but the heap grows courgettes and marrows before being dug in.
Nope, no daleks. Was given black plastic free so freestanding with covers. Different ways - same ends.
As its been persisting down all morning...fed up being sat around the house...
I'm off down the G/H to wrap up my tubers, corms and bulbs
Of course after I've given them a good brushing....
plenty of old newspapers to do so, must keep me tubers frost free during the winter
Signs are its clearing up, so maybe brush and rake up a few more leaves for the compost...

A month after losing a play-off on the US Tour, the 49-year-old was only four off the lead after a spectacular climb through the field at the BMW International Open, but then bogeyed two of the last three holes.
"I hate to finish bad," he said. "You come off and you are mad at yourself. We work so hard for three hours and then you give it away in 30 minutes."
What made it worse was that Langer considers Eichenried's 319-yard 16th and long 18th the two easiest holes. But first he misjudged the wind and spun a pitch into the lake, then he hooked a drive into more water.
He had been 135th after an opening 76 on Thursday, but made the cut by the skin of his teeth with a second round 66 and when he played the first 15 holes in a superb six under he had moved into a tie for sixth place.
With the two dropped shots he fell back into the pack and admitted: "I think they've cost me my chance. I just hit two wrong shots at the wrong time."
Overnight leaders Niclas Fasth and Peter Hanson - the two Swedes were 12 under and 10 under respectively - had still to tee off when Langer finished, but there was enough low scoring to suggest they or somebody else would move out of the former Ryder Cup captain's reach.
Langer's playing partner Phillip Price, his team-mate against the Americans at The Belfry five years ago, also returned a 68 for six under.
But just behind them South African Darren Fichardt and France's Jean-Francois Lucquin showed it was possible to come a cropper. They shot 80 and 79 respectively.
Scot Alastair Forsyth played the first 15 holes in five under to stand eight under, but Ernie Els was still six under after a birdie and a bogey in his first seven holes.

Frozen yogurt is used to delight taste buds, unlike boiling yogurt, which is used to stop invaders from scaling gingerbread castles. Harness the benefits of this powerful treat with this Groupon.
$10 for $20 Worth of Frozen Yogurt
Frozen yogurt is $2.50 for 6 ounces, $3.25 for 10 ounces, and $4 for 12 ounces. Toppings are $0.95 apiece for the first two (the third's free). Snow cones are $2 for a small, $3 for a medium, and $3.50 for a large. View the full menu here.
Though it sounds like the name of a delicious new swamp-fruit, Frogberry actually refers to a fro-yo shop where you can enjoy a cold treat and dream about the flavors of the future. Every day, four fat-free yogurt flavors are selected from a list of 24 that includes options such as mango, peanut butter, cake batter, and blueberry. Toppings are equally plentiful—you could sprinkle on gummy frogs, strawberries, granola, and chocolate chips, as well as healthful mix-ins such as protein powder, açai berry extract, and energy booster made from the gunk inside AA batteries. And it's all served in compostable cups, which come in three sizes—Newt (4 oz.), Tadpole (6 oz.), and Frogberry (10 oz.).
In addition to fro-yo, Frogberry offers smoothies and shaved ice snow cones. And it opens self-serve cereal and coffee bars as early as 9 a.m. for the morning crowd. Cushy chairs and concave stools invite guests to lounge around, check email, or post pictures to their yogurt review site of choice.

[edit] Ab Urbe Condia "Platinum"
Ab Urbe Condita (meaning 'from the founding of the city') is a mod that started from a series of small tweaks to Lusted's Terrae Expugnandae mod. Now running on the Alexander engine it has grown into a full grown hosted mod which was voted 2nd most popular mod in the 2015 modding awards. The mod includes graphical improvements, the Mundus Magnus campaign map spanning from Ireland to India, new factions, units, textures and mercenary system, unique UIs for each culture. The mod also claims massive AI tweaks which rebalance unit and faction performance.
