ENGLAND 3-125 (Sarah Taylor 50, Charlotte Edwards 39, Erin Osborne 2-22) defeated SOUTHERN STARS 8-122 (Ellyse Perry 30, Meg Lanning 28, Nat Sciver 2-18) by 7 wickets with 15 deliveries to spare in first women's Twenty20 at County Ground, Chelmsford.
Chelmsford: A welcome return to form from England's two elite batters, Charlotte Edwards and Sarah Taylor, delivered them a clinical seven-wicket win to end the Southern Stars' Twenty20 winning streak and their hope of securing the women's Ashes at the first opportunity.
The Stars' total of 8-122 seemed very skinny, after Edwards won the toss and sent Australia in. That was proved by the way England batted in response.
Edwards and Taylor had disappointed in the series so far , but their 77-run partnership helped England reach the target with 15 deliveries to spare. This preserved their unbeaten record at the venue their supporters affectionately refer to as "Fortress Chelmsford"
Had the Stars won the match they would have moved to an unassailable lead in the series. The Stars now lead 8 points to 4 with two matches remaining. If England win both - at Hove on Friday and Cardiff on Monday - they will draw the series and retain the Ashes.
The Stars continued their experiment from their final Twenty20 match in Ireland last week, with Ellyse Perry moving to opener and Jess Jonassen dropping down to Perry's old position of number four. The move did not immediately pay off, as Perry struggled to rotate the strike.
England denied the Stars any boundaries until the third-last ball of the powerplay - and that was with the world's best Twenty20 batter, Meg Lanning, at the crease, due to the early loss of Elyse Villani (1) after overestimating the pace of Anya Shrubsole and offering a simple return catch.
The slow-starting innings looked to be gaining momentum when the Stars scored nine runs from each of the sixth and seventh overs. The latter featured Lanning scooping Jenny Gunn's first delivery from a good length over the backward square-leg boundary.
What stopped the Stars from surging was the influence of Dani Hazell. The recalled off-spinner did what many bowlers find impossible: quelling Lanning. The Stars' captain managed only one scoring shot from the first eight balls she faced from Hazell. Then Lanning dragged a low full-toss to deep mid-wicket to depart for 28 off 25 deliveries.
Hazell would have had 2-4 had Jenny Gunn been able to hold a high catch backpeddling on mid-on offered by Perry on 22. Australia slumped to 3-62 when Perry was dismissed in the 13th over.
Two Australians fell to direct hits: Grace Harris for 3 and Alyssa Healy for 4.
There were three run-outs for the innings, as Erin Osborne was stranded by nearly the length of the pitch after chasing a second run when partner Jess Cameron had no interest.
Cameron finished unbeaten on 12, but given she only faced nine deliveries and had teammates falling all around her she was unable to make a telling contribution.
Perry continued her great record of striking with the new ball by having Winfield caught at mid-off in the third over. It was just over 11 overs until they took another wicket, as Edwards and Taylor cemented England's advantage. Captain Edwards is renowned for her boundary hitting, yet in this innings found the gaps and and allowed Taylor to be more ambitious.
Wicketkeeper Taylor came into the match having scored a pair in the Test but that had done little to dent her self-belief. She pulled off a ramp shot off recent nemesis Perry.
The only chance offered by either of the pair came in the eighth over when Villani dropped a tough overhead chance at mid-off when Edwards was on 19.
Off-spinner Erin Osborne eventually had both Edwards and Taylor stumped.
When Taylor departed England still needed 19 runs, and had two new batters at the crease. Brunt flayed two boundaries from Perry in the 17th over, and Nat Sciver another two off Megan Schutt in the 18th to finish to job.

|Keelhaul Canyon Raceway
|Gnarled Forest
|Main Location of
|Swifty McGurk
|Maelstrom Crates
Keelhaul Canyon Raceway is the Race Track in Gnarled Forest. It was first released during the Beta Test phase to test the game's new racing feature. Despite popular belief, it was released before the racetrack on Nimbus Station, and was set as the racing standard. Originally clicking the starter at the Vertigo Loop Raceway would send you to Keelhaul Canyon. When the track was first released in the beta, the flame pit and jump in front of the skull cave did not exist, with a flat stretch of track in their place. The track shares many similarities with the track Pirate Skull Pass from LEGO Racers. An early test version was found in the game files. Aside from some slight style differences, it mainly had the same layout, except for the addition of a split in the road after the beach area.
The Waterfall
You can drive your car into the waterfall for a different, sometimes faster, sometimes easier way through a small section of the track. The waterfall path jumps over skull cave, and the rock skinny rock formations, making it easier.

Claire Messud's new novel, The Burning Girl, feels somehow different from anything she's done before...
Condition: Standard
All Product Details
As she yanked the shroud off the shoddy construction of beauty standards in The Beauty Myth, Naomi Wolf reveals the history and transmutation of our many notions of female sexuality. In this landmark work, Wolf examines the formative powers of pop culture, mythology, and scientific research as she argues not only for the liberation of female sexuality but for a deeper understanding of the nature of female desires.
The sexuality of young girls seems to belong to everyone but themselves. Their bodies are strewn throughout our cities selling jeans along the sides of buses and languishing on billboards high above our streets. The male sexual coming-of-age has been told often, but aside from these images of erotica, there is no such bildungsroman for young, developing girls to identify with. Wolf alerts readers to the scripted but undirected "struggle" undertaken by girls as they develop into womanhood, and how these early experiences affect women's sense of self-worth as adults.
Along with her own sexual experiences, Wolf's argument is bolstered by the stories of a group of adolescent girls as they become aware of their sexuality in a culture with a tendency to subvert female passion. Wolf succeeds in encouraging female passion out of the closet and invites women to take back their sexuality in a celebration of womanhood.

Although I stayed here as a couple I could tell this was a very family friendly place. The beds were super comfortable. We had a room with a balcony facing the golf course. I used this balcony to dry my wet clothes from the pool. That 100 degree weather did the job quite nice. I was disappointed that there was not a deeper pool area, but with all the kids I understand. I think the deepest is 3 ft. With the hot weather I found it interesting that the Jacuzzi was running. Might be an area for the hotel to save cost, energy and maintenance. Any one using a jacuzzi in 100 degree weather is crazy. The staff was friendly and even offered to shuttle me to my car in the parking lot.

I was very concerned to hear of a planning application to turn 5 Pennyfields from a town house in to a multi-occupancy home for up to eight people. That just doesn't fit with the local area, could set a dangerous precedent for the future and have ramifications for parking and repetition of such applications all around Junction Road, Firsgrove Crescent and Firsgrove Road, Milton Road, Victoria Road and Cromwell Road.
I urge residents to make their feelings known on this application – details can be found here.Leave a comment

This is the tenth chapter in my fanon. I'll be doing something very special starting from now until the end of this fanon! This is another long chapter. Enjoy!
Previously on Around the World (Again)...
Zuko was taken by Long Feng and his followers. Toph decided to stay with her parents.
The gang arrive at the Northern Water Tribe to make plans to stop the upcoming war. They visit the Spirit Oasis and get brought into the Spirit World by an evil spirit.
What To Do Next?
"Welcome back to the Northern Water Tribe!! As you can see, the wall that used to defend us from danger has now been brought down because of the ending of the hundred year war. Everyone in the world thanks you Aang and, of course, your friends!" Arnook told Aang, Katara, Sokka, Suki, and Mai after they arriving at the Northern Water Tribe. It was two days since they left Gaoling, the place where they lost a member of their falling apart team. Those two days were sad and quiet. Nobody was speaking or making noise not even Appa or Momo. The thing that was bothering them was the fact that their team was falling apart and that they had two new villains to defeat. They didn't know what to do or whom to go to for help. They had many allies around the world, but they just couldn't get themselves to tell them about that trouble was coming."What would you like to do now, Aang?" Chief Arnook asked.
"Umm," Aang had to think up an excuse to tell him. He just wanted to talk to the others about a plan. "We.. we'll just go around the tribe and ask people if they need any help?" Even though Aang questioned what he said, the chief completely believed it.
"Oh, okay. That's a really nice thing you're doing. You know, helping people after helping everyone in the best way possible; ending a war! I'm planning a feast tonight and you are all invited!." They all nodded their heads. "Great! Good luck with helping others." The chief walked away, leaving the gang all by themselves.
"Let's go help other people. We did, after all, say that we would. Come on, guys," said Aang. They said goodbye to Appa, who had landed in front of the palace, walked down the steps of the palace and headed through the city.
"We need a plan," said Aang as he and the gang walked past a beautiful blue house with crystals hanging from the outer side of the ceiling.
"And we need one now." Katara said. "We need to stop Long Feng and Hama and we have to get Zuko back. But in order to do that, we're going to need help. Now the question is; who can we ask for help?"
"Well, we have a lot friends from all three nations; let's make a list of friends." Sokka asked a seller nearby for a three pieces of parchment, a brush to write with and some ink. The trader gave it to him in exchange for three sliver pieces. They then asked him if he needed any help, to which he replied that he was okay and not in need of help.
"Wow, what a nice guy. Three pieces of paper for three sliver pieces! Now that's a good price!" Sokka said after they walked away from the marketplace. "Let's start with the Earth Kingdom! Hmm.."
"Sokka. I don't know about this. It could take forever to-"
"Calm down, Aang. Trust me. It'll only take a few minutes." Sokka replied. "Okay, umm...."
"How about Haru?" Aang asked.
"I'll right his name down, but I don't think he'll be that helpful. He's not exactly the best Earthbender yet." Sokka wrote down on the piece of parchment and silently read to himself,
Haru – Not very helpful. Has a scary mustache.
After a while, Sokka finally had a list of all their friends around the world.
"Read the list Sokka." Katara said. Sokka nodded his head and read aloud everything he wrote down including Haru's name.
"Haru – Not very helpful. Has a scary mustache."
"Sokka!" Sokka ignored Katara, but said.
"The list is out of order. Sorry."
"What do you mean?" Aang asked.
"I mean that for example; we have someone from The Water Tribe, right?" They all nodded their heads. "And then we might have someone from The Fire Nation, okay?"
"But Sokka, we gave you names in order by nation and you-"
"I know Katara, but I wasn't paying attention, so I wrote them down in the order I wanted."
"Guys. Can we discuss this later? Sokka, read the list." Sokka did as Suki said and began to read aloud again.
"Grand Pakku - Pretty helpful.
King Bumi – Is very powerful, but crazy.
Iroh – Very helpful and very powerful AND not at all crazy! Him!! He's the one we need. IROH!! He can help us make a plan to get Zuko back. We can also get him t- I know! The Order of the White Lotus! They can help us!! It's perfect! Let's g-"
"Wait Sokka! Just read the rest of the list. We'll go for them for help, but we might need back up."
"Okay Katara.
"The Freedom Fighters – Helpful and nice
The Zhangs and the Gan Jin Trib-"
"NO!" Aang and Katara said in unison. Suki and Mai stared at them, confused.
"Okay, cross that out.." Sokka muttered to himself and then continued down the list.
"Ummm... How about the mechanist? He can make useful inventions."
"That's a great idea, Sokka! We can use his machines to imprison Long Feng, Hama, and the Dai Li!" Katara said.
"And we're also headed to the Northern Air Temple next! It's all perfect," said Aang.
"Yeah, but we have to wait until tomorrow before leaving. We still have to help around the town and attend the chief's dinner." Suki told them.
"Well, lets help the people. Everyone seems happy, though." The gang walked though the city. Everyone was, indeed, happy. Aang overheard many conversions talking about the joy of the world, ever since the war was put to an end. This made Aang feel terrible since the world was in danger once again. The day went by slowly. Since no one was in need of any help, the gang all decided to go back to the palace and wait for the dinner.
"Back so soon?" Arnook asked when the team arrived at the palace. They were in Arnook's throne room. He was seated there with a cup of tea in his hand.
"Yep. No one needed help. Everyone was very happy." Aang told the chief.
"Well then, that means that you did a great job with ending the war!" Aang gulped. "Why don't you all wait in the Spirit Oasis? That should keep you all entertained until dinner." He winked at them. They were all confused, but they nodded any way and went to the entrance to the Spiritual Place. The second they entered, Sokka asked,
"What was that all about?"
"He obliviously wants us to do something for him. He has an assignment for us."
"But what is it Katara?"
"I don't know Aang. Why don't you meditate for a while."
"Yeah and then I can enter the Spirit World! I haven't been there since Roku showed me his past." As Aang went to sit in front of the pond holding the two koi fish, he said, "I'll need some peace and quiet."
"Don't worry Aang. We'll be silent." Aang got into his mediated position and closed his eyes. The others sat down around him and Suki realized that something was wrong with Sokka.
"Sokka, are you okay? You seem sad."
"It's nothing." Sokka was, in fact being bothered by something. It was Yue, his first girlfriend. She turned into the moon spirit in this oasis to save one of the koi fish. Sokka still missed her and he decided to tell Suki about her. As he talked, Aang, still with his eyes closed, started to hear something; a voice. It sounded familiar.
"The Avatar? My old friend the Avatar..." Aang opened his eyes and looked down into the pond at the koi fish. Katara, nocting that something was wrong, went to talk to Aang.
"Aang? What happened?"
"I heard a voice."
"Maybe it was Roku."
"It was an evil voice, Katara. That wasn't Roku. I know it."
"Oh...okay. Are you sure you're okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Alright Aang." Katara walked a few feet away. She kept her eyes on Aang as he went back to mediating. He heard that voice again.
"It's been a long time......" Aang opened his eyes yet again, but this time, only opened them slightly. After Aang closed his eyes once more, he heard an evil laugh followed by the sinister voice. "Why don't you come back Avatar? Come back. Don't be shy! Bring your friends. No? Don't worry, I'LL HELP YOU!" Aang threw back his eyelids and then after a moment of thinking, turned around to look at his friends. They weren't there! They weren't in the Spirit Oasis and as Aang looked around, he realized that he too wasn't there. But before Aang could move another muscle, he heard someone speaking to him, but it wasn't the voice he heard before.
"Aang!! There you are! We were looking everywhere for you."
"What? Katara!? Sokka, Mai, Suki! Where are we?" Katara didn't have a chance to answer because Aang, still looking at the mysterious place, knew exactly where they were. He had been here before, "The Spirit World! How did we get here?"
"I don't know Aang. We were all just sitting there, watching you meditate and then all of a sudden your tattoos started to glow." Suki explained. "We were all happy that you got into the Spirit World, but then a light came from you and we disappeared from the oasis. It felt like we were floating in the middle of nowhere, but after a while, we fell in a pond of water. We knew we where in the Spirit World because Sokka recognized the place so we set off to find you since you managed to get into here."
"Okay, so-" Aang got cut off by Mai.
"Now we have to get out of here. How do we do that?"
"Um..." Aang didn't know. He always had help when getting out of the Spirit World. He thought of the spirit who helped him exit the Spirit World when he last visited it while he was in the Northern Water Tribe. "Hei Bai! We need to find him. He'll help us get out of here."
"Okay, well. "Mai said, waiting for Aang to tell them more." Where can we find this spirit?"
"I don't know. We ca-" Aang stopped suddenly as an eerie fog swept over them. There was a sort of humming noise coming from it.
"Aang!?" Sokka said.
"Let's um..." Katara answered for Aang as she looked for a shelter. "How about that giant tree?" She pointed to an old great tree.
"Lets go." Suki said. That tree looked very familiar to Aang, but he couldn't see it clearly with all the fog. They arrived at the foot of the tree and they saw a tunnel into it. Aang recognized it. It was Koh, the Face Stealer's lair.
"Guys, wai-" But then a strong wind blew them through the tunnel and into the tree. The place was dark and scary. There was a strong feeling in the air that they were being watched, but Aang knew what it was. "Show no emotion at all, guys!"
"Why?" Katara asked.
"Just do it-""WELCOME!" A giant centipede-like creature emerged from the darkness and appeared before the gang, who all had a blank expression. "The Avatar and his friends. Where are my manners? My name is," The creature turned around for one second and then rapidly face the gang again, wearing a different face; it was a monkey's face. "KOH!" They all stood there, the blank expression still upon their faces.
"Nice to meet you." Katara, Sokka, Suki, and Mai said without emotion.
"Good to see you again Koh." Aang said.
"Yes, well you may be wondering why you're here. I sent you here." The voice Aang had heard while meditating was Koh's. "Why did I send you here? Well I need new faces to add to my collection." He laughed and changed his face to an owl's face. "You're wondering why Arnook wanted you to come to the oasis, right?" They all nodded their heads. "He knows that you're all in need of help and he wanted you to come into the Spirit World to get that help. I would have gone to a past Avatar for help, but I'm very helpful. Long Feng will start a war and you need to know how to stop him. I can't help you with that, but I notice that you're missing two members from your little gang and I can help you locate the one that was captured." Mai jumped a little and Koh stared at her for a while and then turned around. He spoke in a taunting, cruel voice,
"Where's Zuko? Don't you want to know where your boyfriend is, Mai?" Mai nodded, struggling to keep a blank expression. She was so worried about Zuko. "Well, I'll tell you. Fire Lord Zuko has been killed by Hama on orders from Long Feng."
"WHAT?!" Mai yelled. She couldn't believe it. "ZUKO!?"
"What a big mistake you just made, Mai! Come here and let me STEAL YOUR FACE!!" Koh began to crawl to her as fast as he could.
"RUN!!" Aang yelled and they all ran for the exit, Koh crawling after them.
"OH NO YOU DON'T!!" Koh yelled when the gang saw the light from outside and began to run at it. Koh used his mighty tail and hit the side of the tunnel. Rocks fell from the end of the tunnel and sealed it up, leaving the gang trapped within Koh's Lair.
"Since you all showed fear, all of your faces will be added to my collection." He said in a calm way. "You first, Mai." He lunged at her. Mai had so much fear on her face. But then something came from the top of the tunnel.
"AHHHHH!!" It was a man wearing a bear skin pelt. He had a spear in his hand and a the pelt was covering his face. He was watching the scene from the roof of the tunnel and came out from hiding when Koh jumped at Mai. He jammed the spear into Koh's body just in time to stop him from stealing Mai's face. Koh feel with a thud. The man removed the top of his pelt and revealed himself to be,
"Avatar Kuruk!! Guys this is Avatar Kuruk, the Waterbender Avatar before me.""Hello Aang and his friends. I finally got Koh." Kur
"Is he dead?" Katara asked.
"Yes. I had to, to get Ummi back, my soon to be wife."
"What do you mean 'soon to be'?" Suki asked. Kuruk told them the story about what happened to Ummi and then said,
"I'll find a way for us to be reunited. I was waiting here for someone to enter Koh's lair, so that when he got distracted, I could kill him. I was just waiting for the perfect time. Thank you guys." After saying goodbye, Kuruk told them all to go outside. They'd find help there. They did as they were told and once they past the end of the tunnel, they were outside. There was someone waiting for them. Avatar Roku!
"Hello Aang, Katara, Sokka, Suki, and Mai."
"He knows my name!" Sokka said to Suki. Roku nodded his head at him and said,
"Follow me to the exit. You want to get out of here, right?" He asked judging by the confused faces that they had on. They were all wondering how he knew that they wanted to leave. They began to follow Roku.
"Roku, how does Koh know so much about the our world?" Aang asked.
"Koh, like all spirits here, knows about everything that happens in both the Spirit World and the mortal world."
"But, why did he bring my friends to the Spirit World? And why did I hear his voice while I was meditating?"
"Spirits, including Koh, can bring people to the Spirit World, like when Hei Bai brought Sokka here. Koh wanted your friends here so he could steal your faces. You heard his voice, Aang, because you were in the Spirit Oasis and you, being the Avatar, can contact spirits, just as spirits can contact you. He did that to frighten you, Aang."
"Okay, since I'm the Avatar, I can be brought into the Spirit World on orders from a spirit. But what about my friends? How did they get sent here?"
"Since you were all in the Spirit Oasis, Koh was able to bring you here because the place is so spiritual. The Spirit World can be very tricky. Here we are!" Roku pointed to a wooden post. "Go stand under the sign." He instructed the others. They ran to the post and waited. A second later Roku did began to bend something, but Aang didn't have enough time to see exactly what he was bending. They all appeared in the Spirit Oasis.
"It's time for dinner. Let's go." Katara said.
"Why did the chief want us to go here? Did he want to kill us!?" Suki asked.
"No, he knew we were troubled by something and he wanted us to get help from the spirits. I don't know how I know that, but I just do." Aang then knew that it was Roku that told him this. Back at the palace, the chief had his dinner set and had invited many people.
"Welcome Aang, Katara, Sokka, Suki, and Mai! Yes, I learned your names." Arnook told them when they entered the room. He was smiling. "Please, sit down." He pointed at six empty seats next to him. After they sat down, he began to speak again. "Before we begin to eat, there's something I would like to show the gang. I know that they will be very pleased when they see it. Everyone, please welcome, Fire Lord Zuko!!" Everyone clapped except for the gang, because they were too surprised to believe it. Zuko had appeared from behind a column, waved at everyone, and sat down next to Mai. Mai hugged Zuko and was about to cry. She thought that he was dead.
"Let the feast begin!" Arnook said and everyone began to eat.
"You're alive! You're alive Zuko!" Mai said.
"How did you escape Long Feng, Zuko?" Aang asked.
"Well, it's a very long story, but I'll tell you," Zuko said. "It all started in Ba Sing Se......."
The Ultimate Waterbender came up with many titles, but Aang20791 decided to choose "What To Do Next?" because it made more sense. Other titles that Ultimate came up with were,
- "Devising a Strategy"
- "Where to Turn?"
- "New Plans at the Northern Water Tribe"
- "Different Approaches"
Sokka saying that Haru had a scary mustache is a reference to the author, Aang20791, not liking Haru's mustache and thinking that it's scary (not really).
The others saying "NO" to The Zhangs and The Gan Jins Tribe is a reference to how that episode is the least liked by most of the fans and that getting them back together will only lead to fighting and arguing.
I've been reading the Harry Potter Series (I'm on Book 4!) and I've noticed that the author, J.K. Rowling, has put in dedications to people in the book. I'm going to be doing that for the rest of this fanon. I'll dedicate chapters to some of the nicest users on the wiki. I won't be going back to my other chapters and add dedications because that, in my opinion, just seems lazy and uncaring. Like you're just adding it to be there. So anyway, before I announce the dedication for this chapter, I would like to say that my writing has really improved thanks to the Harry Potter Series. It's showed me different ways of presenting the story and using foreshadowing in a very clever way!
Anyway, this chapter is dedicated to Iceland77, the first ally I had here on the wiki. She is sadly, at the moment, inactive and won't see this for a while. She was the first person to welcome me here to the wiki and her fanon was the first I ever read here on Avatar Wiki. It lead me to write my own. My friendship with her also lead me to another with The Ultimate Waterbender, another friendly user. I hope that Ice comes back soon. She's missed a lot on the wiki and I hope that she sees this. She really deserves a dedication!
Please don't ask to be dedicated on my fanon, because I'll say no (sorry if that sounded mean). I'm the one who has to choose them or else it'll be like I don't even care about who I dedicate a chapter too. So thank you Iceland for being so nice to me and every other user on here! - Aang20791 Talk Fanon 22:51, March 25, 2011 (UTC)

Macaroni & Cheese has always been a guaranteed "silent meal" in my house.

Marty Stillwater is a novelist, who starts to feel uncomfortable, unwittingly he is being cloned by the government. Seven years later he encounters his physically identical clone who has a murderous personality.
Based on uberhorror writer Dean R. Koontz's bestseller, director Dick Lowry has succeeded in turning a suspenseful tale of government cloning into a mediocre shambles. You have to wonder whether Lowry or writer Stephen Tolkin read the bestselling novel at all. Stephen Baldwin plays a mystery novelist who is unwittingly cloned and later meets his clone, who looks identical to him, but has the mind of a murderer. Baldwin is awful as he mugs his way through a plot that deals with some nasty DNA alter-ego out to get him and his family.
Memorable only for the terrible script and lame direction.

HSBC is holding an exhibition to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the completion in 1985 of the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, designed by Foster Associates. The exhibition in the ground plaza of HSBC Main Building uses archive photographs and documentary footage to trace the history of the 1 Queens Road Central site, home of the Bank in Hong Kong since its foundation in 1865. David Nelson, Senior Partner and joint Head of Design at Foster + Partners attended the opening.
Lord Foster commented: The Hongkong Bank was a statement of confidence created without compromise. Our brief was for nothing less than the best bank building in the world. Through a process of questioning and challenging we virtually reinvented the office tower in humanistic as well as organizational and urban terms. From the outset, the Bank placed a high priority on flexibility. Interestingly, 25 years on, it attributes a measure of its continued strength as a company to the ability to reconfigure the building to suit its changing needs.
The Building for the Future: HSBC Main Building exhibition is on view at the Ground Plaza of HSBC Main Building at 1 Queens Road Central, Hong Kong from 26 July to 25 August 2010. It is open to the public from 8am to 8pm, Monday to Saturday, and admission is free.

Hammond's Holy Ghost Catholic School Girls' Basketball team won the Northshore Independent Athletic League Varsity Championship after defeating Trafton during a tight game on Feb. 4, school officials said in a news release.
Holy Ghost Catholic School coach Casey Potts said the first half featured a "slow, sloppy start with both teams turning the ball over multiple times before getting any clean shots at the goal. But Holy Ghost eventually found a groove and jumped out to a 15-8 halftime lead on Trafton."
Trafton made some key adjustments at halftime and figured out how to stop the Patriots throughout the third quarter by holding them scoreless while also closing the gap by scoring five points, Potts said. This cut the lead to 15-13, with the Patriots barely holding on to the lead, Potts said.
Setting up for an exciting fourth quarter, the Eagles continued to dominate the second-half into the fourth quarter, going up 18-15 at one point, Potts said. Key lay ups and an important free throw by the Patriots won them the game, 20-18 with 12 seconds remaining, Potts said. This is the first time the Patriots have won their first Northshore Independent Athletic League Varsity Girls Championship since joining the league during the 2010-11 season, Potts said.

I used to be only into punk like Dead Kennedys, Tragedy, From Ashes Rise, Gizm, Spazz, etc., but as I've gotten older I try not to take a narrow minded perspective on music. Try to enjoy and be as open minded as possible to all forms of it. These days i'll listen to just about anything. Rock and all the sub genre's of rock, jazz, blues, classical, a little country. The only thing i've never really been able to get into is pop.

Yeah, this should have been multiple choice and the choices are too general (no jazz? blues?? I know people who would be really offended )
But anyways, I've been a classical otaku/musician for a long time...longer than being an anime otaku There was a period of my life where I spammed heavy/death metal, and right now I'm addicted to Radiohead, but it's always mainly been classical.
Good to see classical fans in this forum. The flame is still going, but it ain't gonna last long

Favorite mus----RAWK.
A reflex action. This has been for years.
But actually......pop was my first love. Petula Clarke's "Downtown" was new when I first got a transisor radio, my first HiTech gadget. Yes, I am ole.
And anime has brought a new pop into my life. There is rock to (T.A. and the Family Cool, Silent City from Agent AiKa is the best!) but mostly anime has pop music like "The Sailor Stars Song" and "Revoluntion Rindu" and many more.
And I thank gawd for Yoko Kanno and "Try to Wish".
My life is rich and full.

My playlist mostly consists of anime OP/EDs so my favourate genre would be J-pop. I like classical techno as well (Bond - techno violin) or the likes of Kajiura Yuki who mixes pop/classic/opera/techno around which produces some amazing results.

Most ska bands suck, but the few good ones are awesome from Hell to Heaven and back to Earth. I especialy love Streetlight Manifesto, they are doing a tour now, by the way, can't wait till they come to Brighton and/or Portsmouth in February. Some other Ska I like would be more mainstream ska, like Reel Big Fish and stuff like that.
My second love is Metal, yet I still voted 'other', since I like ska slightly more than metal.

I listend to pretty much everything, but I love classic rock (ZZ Top! Yeah!), and some metal. I hate scream metal though because there's no actual singing. I like Guns N' Roses type 80's metal, and any hard rock with actual singing, for example, Metallica, Iron Maiden, and bands like that. Rammstein also puts lots of thought behind their music, and have members that are genuinely talented. Till's got the only baritone yet harmonic voice I've heard in a rock/metal band.

Khloe & Lamar
February 20, 2012 by staff
Khloe & Lamar, Anyone who has ever kept up with the Kardashians knows Khloe as one of the silliest of the bunch, and this brand new season of "Khloe & Lamar" promises to showcase the crazy and unpredictable life she shares with NBA husband Lamar Odom.
Compared to sister Kim and her dramatic divorce from Kris Humphries, Khloe and Lamar seem relatively down to earth. Part one of the show's Season 2 premiere highlights the happy couple's unending playfulness and commitment to working out their relationships – with each other, and with their loved ones.
Right from the introduction of this episode, we see clips of a crying Kim pre-divorce, followed by contrasting footage of Khloe and Lamar having fun with each other: pillow-fighting, laughing, cracking jokes, and so on.
Khloe sums up her perspective of relationships pretty well: "I don't see why there ever has to be an ending to the honeymoon phase."
Khloe's brother Rob Kardashian (a USC alum!) moves out after living with Khloe and Lamar for some time. He's "finding his own identity," according to Khloe, by getting a new apartment and focusing on "Dancing with the Stars." While this may be a big step forward for Rob, it upsets Lamar, who had developed a close, little-brother-esque bond with Rob.
Khloe visits Rob in his new place, only to find him upset that Lamar hasn't made an effort to see his "Dancing" performances or check out his new apartment. Rob always has the support of his family, however. The entirety of the Kardashian clan is shown enthusiastically cheering him on during a taping.
At home, Khloe self-installs a "sex swing" in hopes of keeping things interesting in the bedroom. The swing, which was attached to the ceiling, ends up breaking, sending the couple crashing onto their bed. It's a little embarrassing for Khloe, but they laugh it off, as they do most things.
The next day, Rob bails on Khloe and Lamar for lunch. Lamar confesses that he's hurt and wants Rob in his life, but he doesn't want to make the first move or confront him.
Meanwhile, Khloe and her best friend Malika set out on a mission to transform Rob's old (and now vacant) bedroom into a "sex chamber of love." When Lamar comes home to the surprise, he's entertained, but is drained from a busy week and essentially turns Khloe down as politely as possible.
Khloe, who isn't accustomed to rejection, feels a tad humiliated.
Despite her embarrassment, she arranges to have Lamar and Rob meet at the gym in order to resolve their issues. After an hour of waiting, Lamar still hasn't arrived, prompting a fed-up Rob to leave the gym. He runs into Lamar in the parking lot. Name-calling and bad attitudes ensue from both of them.
After Khloe vents that Rob and Lamar's floundering relationship has put emotional strain on her, Lamar finally lets go of his pride and pays a visit his little brother-in-law.

Monroe County Democrat, (Monroe Co. TN) October 11, 1972:
"Mrs. Sands Still Keeps Diary She Started In 1918:
Dear Dan [Hicks]
Yes, I am still keeping my daily diary that dates back to Sept. 1, 1918. The first little five-cent notebook has grown into quite a collection of other notebooks, several five-year regular diary books and various business year-books for the year. Some years were hard to keep on keeping on, but Ben always insisted on my not giving up. I thank him for that. Incidentally, I have a 1972 five-year-diary now.
I'm wondering who will be interested in my long work when it will be 100 on Sept. 1, 2018?"
Best wishes you and yours,
Martha Ann Carson Sands

By Mel Antonen, USA TODAY
HOUSTON Roger Clemens, dressed in black shorts and T-shirt, threw 40 pitches Tuesday in a stifling mid-afternoon heat that settled in at empty Minute Maid Park. He used both sides of the plate and threw all his pitches from the stretch and windup.
"I haven't been out there in a while, so I wanted to get on the main mound and get familiar with my surroundings," says Clemens, who turns 44 on Aug. 4. "I want to get a feel for the distance and the view, so that when I step out there I'm not totally out of my element."
Modest words from the certain Hall of Fame pitcher, who hopes to add to his 341 wins and 4,502 strikeouts in un-retiring for a third time to play for his hometown Houston Astros. He has one more minor league start, Friday night, before his 2006 major league debut at home next Thursday night against the Minnesota Twins.
Clemens is drinking water and sitting in a lunchroom across the hall from the Astros' clubhouse. His four-hour workout included hitting grounders in the infield to his wife, Debbie, at first base, and his son Kory, 18, at second. Clemens also was the catcher as his son Kacy, 11, pitched from the mound with a leg kick that looks like his dad's.
Debbie, wearing golf shoes and a white skirt and pink top, gave up a golf date to practice for a charity softball game. As her husband hits grounders with more intensity, she kept taking a step backward.
"Pretty soon, you are going to be in right field," Clemens said jokingly. "Get that glove on the ground, woman."
Family time like that is what kept Clemens in Houston even though he had contract offers — and a steady stream of encouragement from various players — to pitch for the Texas Rangers, Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees. His wife doesn't mind that he plays as long as he stays in Astros pinstripes.
"The only thing I mind is that his body hurts, and I can't stand to see his pain," she says, knowing her husband can hardly walk after he makes a start. "I can do this if it is in Houston, but it is too hard to fly."
If her husband had left for another club, "I couldn't get Roger into the (family) puzzle. The kids grow up too fast. He would go five or six weeks without seeing them."
Clemens attended several Astros games and enjoyed the experience, but he couldn't decide if he wanted to play. "During the day, I would feel good enough to come back. Then at night, when I laid down, I thought, 'There's no chance.' "
He made his final decision a few minutes before midnight May 30 and told his family at breakfast the next morning. Kacy was telling his friends in school hours before the nationally televised news conference.
To prepare for that return, Clemens will pitch in a final tune-up Friday for the Round Rock (Texas) Express, the Astros' Class AAA team.
The 8,722 tickets are sold out, just as they were in Lexington, Ky., when Clemens pitched and was a teammate of his son Koby. And just as they were when Clemens pitched for the Class AA Corpus Christi (Texas) Hooks, where $9 tickets sold for $200 on the Internet. Locals said Clemens was the biggest name to hit town since an Elvis concert in 1956.
"This type of farewell tour has never been done before, if that's what it is," says Hall of Fame pitcher and fellow Texan Nolan Ryan, who, with Clemens, is part of the group that owns the Hooks. "There are so many firsts in Roger's career. This is just another one."
Clemens, who usually gets five or six spring-training starts to prepare, says he is "definitely on the fast track" for his return, at a pro-rated $12.6 million on a one-year, $22 million contract. He is coming off a 1.87 earned-run average that was the lowest in the majors and of his career.
"If he comes back and does what he did last season ... that would be the most amazing thing that he's ever done," Atlanta Braves starter John Smoltz says.
Clemens expects to pitch well again. But that well? He says he's as curious as anyone. "I feel as if my eyes are to the right of my body and that they are watching what happens to my body, just like everyone else."
Expectations are high, but his wife says Clemens is "very, very, very strong willed" with a "huge heart."
The expectations, she says, don't bother him: "The team is good, but I hope Mr. Luck is on our side."
Making the pitch for Clemens
Clemens had sales pitches from all four teams. Rangers owner Tom Hicks, general manager Jon Daniels and manager Buck Showalter visited his house in Houston and showed Clemens a video. Hicks made his pitch in a four-page letter.
Jorge Posada and Derek Jeter were the pitchmen for the Yankees, Tim Wakefield and coach Al Nipper for the Red Sox. Among Astros, Clemens was in touch with left-hander Andy Pettitte virtually every day, catcher Brad Ausmus every other day and second baseman Chris Burke once a week. Clemens also talked with pitchers Roy Oswalt and Brandon Backe.
He says he decided to play after all the players' encouragement as well as from the people who saw him at the grocery store and gas station. His magical ride through the Astros' minor league system also gave Clemens the encouragement he needed.
At Class A Lexington, his six strikeouts won wiper fluid for every fan in attendance. In Corpus Christi, his 11 strikeouts won everyone a free taco. Clemens also paid $7,000 for new furniture and to have the Legends' clubhouse professionally cleaned.
Koby, drafted by the Astros last season, played third base in Lexington. Dad said seeing his son in uniform put his mind at ease: "He was my No. 1 priority, to get him where his dream would come true. What I was doing was a far second."
Clemens' mom, Bess, who died in 2005, wasn't big on her son playing for as long as he has, concerned about his health. But before he pitched for the Legends, Clemens read a letter from his sister, Janet, who wrote that their mother would have loved knowing son and grandson were teammates. "She told me that Mom would be pulling up a chair to watch," he says.
Passing off to next generation
In Corpus Christi, 220 miles south of Houston, Clemens arrived four hours before game time and spoke 20 minutes to the Hooks' players about dedication. He wants to mold the next generation of Astros players.
"He told us how our body is a temple and you get out of it what you put into it," shortstop Ben Zobrist says.
Clemens told them each had the talent to make the big leagues, but smart players with heart and will are the ones who advance to the majors.
"He has a gift for teaching," his wife says.
Ryan says: "Roger likes to mentor. Those are the fringe benefits the Astros get by having him."
Clemens signed autographs, joked around and talked strategy on how to beat the San Antonio Missions with Hooks catcher J.R. House, in his seventh minor league season. House gave Clemens his uniform No. 22 for the night and wore No. 20.
Infielder Mark Saccomanno says Clemens relaxed until game time, then the intensity hit.
"There was a world of difference. You could see the intensity in his eyes," Saccomanno says.
Clemens struck out 11 and tied a team record before a record crowd of 9,022 at WhatABurger Field in a 5-1 win.
Not often does a team's limited partner win a game, but Clemens says he was "just following orders" from Ryan and Don Sanders, the principal owners.
Friday night, the Corpus Christi scenario plays out in Round Rock. Clemens had never been to Corpus Christi, but he has been to Round Rock. "I went to see my oldest play in a (high school) All-Star game there," he says.
Mom would have loved the connection.

Milbank: The defeat of the 1 percent
BOSTON — It was a victory party fit for the 1 percent. Over in Chicago, the Obama campaign had invited 10,000 to fill the floor of the McCormick Place convention center. But here in Boston, Mitt Romney favored a more genteel soiree for an exclusive crowd. Romney's election-night event was in a ballroom at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center that could accommodate a few hundred. Most men wore jackets and ties; women donned dresses and heels.
Secret Service agents blocked reporters from mixing with the Romney supporters as they sipped cocktails and nibbled canapes. Outside the ballroom, waiters in black tie tended bar, and Jumbotrons showed the election results on Fox News.
Downstairs, Romney's big donors assembled in private rooms for finer fare; guards admitted only those whose credentials said "National Finance Committee." "We're going to have a great celebration here tonight," Romney adviser Ed Gillespie told the crowd as early results trickled in. But the election results, even filtered through the rose-colored lenses of Fox News, were not promising.
Michigan fell to Obama, and then so did Pennsylvania and Minnesota. Obama was holding his own in Florida and Virginia, and things were looking grim for Romney in Ohio. The ballroom was as quiet as a library as the audience listened to the Fox personalities on-screen.
"Romney would have to draw to an inside straight" at this point, pronounced Brit Hume, who predicted "an awful lot of recriminations."
Some attendees headed to the coat check. "I have a son who has a test tomorrow," one woman explained. "It literally hurts my soul," one man said as he walked toward the exit. Others lamented their wasted labors ("We did so much for him") and fretted about a second Obama term ("I don't want him to feel like he has a (expletive) mandate").
Romney had spent nearly two years, and hundreds of millions of dollars, trying to convince Americans that he wasn't an out-of-touch millionaire unconcerned about the little people — that he was more than a caricature who liked to fire people, who didn't care about the very poor or the 47 percent who pay no federal income tax, who has friends who own NASCAR teams. He very nearly achieved it: Polls showed him neck-and-neck with Obama in the campaign's closing days. But his final day in the race showed why he couldn't persuade enough working-class Americans that he spoke for them.
On the final flight of his campaign Tuesday afternoon, Romney ventured to the back of his plane for a chat with reporters and discovered that — horrors! — the poor wretches were seated in coach. "I thought you had bigger seats back here," he told them.
Fortunately, this discovery did not distract the Republican nominee from making some salient points before rejoining aides at the front of the plane: his lack of regrets ("I'm very proud"), his delight at the crowds ("When you have 10,000 people cheering you, you get a real boost"), his confidence ("I just finished writing a victory speech") and how he would reward himself in victory.
"Assuming I win, one of the benefits is … to get another Weimaraner," he disclosed when asked about puppy rumors. So, one of his first gestures as president-elect would be to purchase a pricey hunting dog once bred by European royalty?
In that sense, Romney's election-night celebration was a fitting coda to his presidential bid: It abandoned any pretense of being a campaign for the common man. On election night in 2000, George W. Bush hosted an outdoor rally for thousands in Austin.
In 2008, Barack Obama addressed a mass of humanity in Chicago's Grant Park. Then there was Romney's fete — for which reporters were charged $1,000 a seat. The very location set the candidate and his well-heeled supporters apart from the masses: The gleaming convention center, built with hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars, is on a peninsula in the Boston harbor that was turned into an election-night fortress, with helicopters overhead, metal barricades and authorities searching vehicles.
Only a few gawkers crossed the bridge from downtown to stand outside. Massachusetts, the state Romney once led as governor, was among the first to be called for Obama.
But many other states followed. At 11:14 p.m., the thinning crowd heard Fox's Bret Baier project that Obama had won Ohio. "That's the presidency," he said. From Obama headquarters in Chicago, Fox's Ed Henry described "pandemonium." And in the ballroom in Boston, the Romney supporters stood in silence.

Actually invented in the 1950's, Japanese garden engineers increased to its currently recognizable type in the early 1970's the leaf blower. It had been accepted like a simple time saving system for households of all income brackets, and although they've been involved with various environmental controversies involving their known pollutants, have now settled down into as an accepted part of modern consumer gardening community. Leaf blowers were occasionally frowned upon by some communities. Generally they were seen as not contributing to the solution of the issue of tidying one's property, but instead simply blowing the problem away, and rendering it somebody else's. However, in many areas the simple machines were accepted. Because of prolonged droughts in several locations during those times, using water for daily garden clean-up jobs was often banned, which offered towards the growing popularity of the leaf blower.
It added to the pleasing effect of the clear, well-kept without using any water town and lawn. The homeowners continued to make use of their new lawn power tools when the drought periods were over. The number of farming consumers utilizing the equipment has risen up to the song of 3 million annual customers who demand the time- and labor-saving benefits of backpack leaf blower are well worth their value. Several garden owners do not have enormous sections of time in which they could dedicate focused attention to the maintenance of the gardens. Garden owners who spend several hundred dollars yearly on these devices might say when they were limited by the traditional methods of using brooms and hand rakes; their landscapes might usually decline and decay. Without these models, their yards would turn into a general eyesore with their respective communities, due to a basic lack of quality time to invest.
Manufacturers of the blowers have proven to be an environmentally -conscious and town-friendly crowd, with extended and major reductions in emissions and noise levels included in every new design created. There's currently a terrific selection of back pack Leaf Blowers, which may have demonstrated to be more environmentally friendly than their back pack alternatives, while providing incredibly similar degrees of power and wind. Since their inception 50 years back, modern years of blowers have cut harmful hydrocarbon discharge levels as much as 90%, making them basically an environmental non issue. They are a recognized way of lawn clean-up in virtually every US city. Additionally, noise levels have been reduced over the year's upto 75%, or in general right down to 65 db, keeping them well under most cities' noise level ordinances.
