In the For Better Or Worse comic strip, the family is sitting around the breakfast table as Dad says, "Here we are in a brand new year. I think we should all make some resolutions, don't you?"
Mother responds, "Okay. I resolve not to criticize, to nag less, and bake more often."
The family cheers: "Right on. Neat! Yeah!"
Then Dad says, "I resolve not to lose my temper, and to fix all the things in the house that need repairs."
The family says, "Great. Okay!"
Daughter Elizabeth says, "I resolve to brush Farley (the dog), to keep my room clean, and not fight with Michael (her brother)."
Everyone says, "Good!"
Then Michael says, "I resolve to play road hockey, hang out with my friends, and watch more television."

CIA Factbook 2050: Hong Kong is a book appearing in Deus Ex. It is a book focusing on providing factual information about Hong Kong. It is located in Paul Denton's apartment in the 'Ton Hotel, New York City.
Economic Overview: In the decades since Hong Kong has been returned to Chinese control it has seen its economy thrive under the newly resurgent authority of the Chinese central government. Led by a thriving technological market in human augmentation technology, the real GDP has peaked every year since 2041 with all forecasting models predicting that this trend will continue well into the next decade if not beyond.
However, the statistics do not present an entirely accurate depiction of the state of the Hong Kong economy as they fail to depict the flourishing gray and black market that operates with at least the tacit approval of the Beijing regime. While political oppression continues to present a major and ongoing problem to those living under Chinese rule, entrepreneurism is alive and well in the form of organized crime -- as has always been the case, anything and everything can be had for a price in Hong Kong. Many of these criminal organizations can trace their lineage directly to the Triads that have existed for thousands of years throughout China and Southeast Asia...

Power of will because her boyfriend is in wheelchair and she decided to make him walk again. Guys, when I saw her and heard her talk, I knew she can do it! Also, her boyfriend cannot fuck her, but she still stays with him, suppressing all her biological needs. She hasn't fucked in almost two years!!! God, such a wonderful girl. And those horny eyes… When you look into them, you can see how she would moan below you. And then, when you see what she did to our cameraman with her feet… She literally jerked him off with her feet! Fucking hell! Guys, do you dare to watch this?

For a guy who's lived on four continents, I don't have that many anecdotes. Maybe it was because wherever I was, my nose was shoved in a book. The peak of my reading years was 10-12 years old, when I lived in Grand Forks, North Dakota, a not-so-bad little city on the border of Minnesota.
The summers in Grand Forks were long and dull — even when I went swimming every day, and regularly went to the Best Western hotel next to the Y and pretended to be a guest so I could play miniature golf on their tiny course. Even when I rode my bike all over town, played baseball in vacant lots, and was home by 3:00 to watch the re-runs of Gilligans Island and the Brady Bunch. Somehow there were still hours and hours to read.
Practically every day I would ride my bike to the Grand Forks Public Library, and check out a couple of books. You could only check out three at a time if you were a kid. Sometimes I would even read one right there, so I'd still have three to take home. I read every one of the Three Investigator series (way better than The Hardy Boys, in my opinion), and all of Danny Dunn. I read and re-read The Great Brain books. I read everything by Daniel Pinkwater and Betsy Byars and Scott Corbett and John Bellairs. I made my way through Narnia and Prydain a few times. There are dozens, or even hundreds, of books I don't even remember. I read the occasional "grown-up" book, too — Stephen King was a favorite (he writes about kids well), and I loved Watership Down and Flowers for Algernon.
Anything with an animal in it was likely to get read to tatters: The Yearling and Old Yeller (it's a book, too), and Where the Red Fern Grows (oh, how that book gets to me) and Charlotte's Web and a book nobody but me remembers called The Year of the Raccoon.
I knew then that I wanted to be a writer, and wanted to write the kinds of books I loved to read. I remember eyeing those grown-up, serious books, and hoping that when I was older I wouldn't stop reading and enjoying the "real" books, and take up with those stuffy things. I would think, "well, by the time you're thirty you'll probably like them" and shudder a bit. I was right, of course, but I'm glad I never stopped reading and caring about kids' books, and I'm glad that's what I'm writing now. Kids are the best readers.

The bankrupt airline has been hopeful that a ratified deal with the pilots will give it momentum as it seeks concessions from its three other major unions: its machinists, flight attendants and passenger service workers. US Airways, a unit of US Airways Group Inc., says it needs about $950 million in annual cost cuts from all its unions to become financially viable.
The Air Line Pilots Association said that 1,690 pilots, or 58%, voted in favor of the contract, while 1,236 voted against. Eighty-nine percent of the union's 3,291 eligible members cast ballots.
The ratification means that US Airways pilots will not face temporary pay cuts of 21% that a bankruptcy judge imposed last week on unions that have not agreed to new, long-term contracts.
The airline issued a statement Thursday saying that "pilots have demonstrated their leadership in working with us" on "the very difficult issues that will soon confront virtually every one of our legacy competitors as well."
The ratification vote follows months of contentious negotiations that exposed deep divisions within the pilots' union. Union representatives in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, who represent a majority of US Airways pilots, had blocked a ratification vote in the weeks before last month's bankruptcy filing, saying the terms were so harsh that accepting them would have been "total capitulation."
Even after agreeing earlier this month to allow a ratification vote, the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia reps had recommended a no vote, suggesting a better contract might be obtainable through the bankruptcy process.
In the voting, which concluded Thursday, the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia units rejected the agreement, with 52 and 54% in opposition, respectively.
But the union's four smaller units — based in Charlotte, N.C., Washington, Boston and New York — all voted overwhelmingly for the new contract, with support ranging from 68% to 84% in those cities.
"Clearly, this ratification shows that the pilots of US Airways understand why it was necessary to come to a consensual agreement with the company," said Bill Pollock, chairman of the US Airways Master Executive Council. "This agreement provides us with the means to survive, emerge from bankruptcy as a formidable competitor, and ultimately prosper in even the most challenging of economic environments."
The pilots' deal extends through 2009. Along with the 18% pay cut, pilots will have to fly more hours each month, likely resulting in additional furloughs. Nearly 1,900 US Airways pilots have been furloughed over the past three years as the airline has endured two trips into bankruptcy.
The average US Airways pilot makes $155,000, according to the airline. An 18.25% pay cut would reduce that to $126,713. For some pilots, though, a cut could be even greater. If the new work rules result in some captains being reduced to first officers, those persons' pay might drop from $155,000 to less than $90,000, depending on certain factors.
The deal also changes work rules and cuts benefits. The union estimates that pilots have now collectively forgone $7 billion in wages and benefits, including concessions made in the first bankruptcy in 2002 and up through 2009.
Fred Freshwater, a pilots' representative from Pittsburgh, who opposed the deal, said he believes many pilots will quit when they realize the depth of the concessions.
"When the pilots find out what they voted for, when they actually find out how draconian this contract is, they'll vote with their feet," he said.

Much cuteness and deep lessons will be learned, and all in a nifty Dennor package! I love these two and since Lucky and I screwed them over in our monster fic Seven Little Killers, we decided to give the Nordics a chance to shine.
Don't be mistaken, this story isn't fluff. It's a journey with lessons and some heartache, but it will mostly be positive and fun. I've never written the Nordics before. Denmark was a fascinating one, but very challenging. I hope I did him justice! I think he's so cute.
Disclaimer: I don't own Hetalia, but it makes a great stress reliever/reason to procrastinate on final papers.
"So you're leaving." Iceland's cool voice drifted across the room to where Denmark packed a suitcase full of his clothes and other necessities. He didn't bother to spare the younger nation a glance and instead focused his efforts on placing his toothbrush where it wouldn't touch his underwear. He wasn't a stranger to nomadic life. Sure it had been a couple thousand years ago, but he figured it was like riding a bike. Once you did it you never forgot…or something. There was an exasperated sigh from his doorway. "You know ignoring me isn't going to make me go away."
"I'm not trying to make you go away." Denmark closed the suitcase with a satisfied "There!" before it promptly sprang open again. He definitely needed to travel lighter. There had to be room for his Mr. Calzone plush. Sweden made for him on his birthday after nearly a week of groveling, and now he couldn't sleep without it. Norway had always found it creepy, though Denmark couldn't put his finger on why. Nothing was cooler than a singing pizza face.
Denmark's lips pressed into a fine line. He remembered the night before his best friend vanished all too clearly. Norway had stood in this very room, looking down on him while he pretended to be asleep. It had been odd, but then Norway had a tendency to do odd things. The most prominent instance being his singing. One moment he'd be singing softly in his own language, and the next he would fall silent. It was like he sensed whenever Denmark watched him, but Norway never turned around to acknowledge it. He just stopped.
So that night, Denmark ignored the tender, sad look on his best friend's face and pretended to sleep on, his eyes cracked by just a smidgeon. Norway had then taken a note out of his pocket and left it folded on his nightstand.
"There's a lot I want to say," Norway had whispered. He hadn't been wearing his hat, nor was his Scandinavian cross clipped into his hair. Curtains of blond shrouded his face and Denmark remembered thinking how oddly beautiful he was, his usual blank face giving away nothing. "But you won't listen, idiot." Denmark had almost shot up when he heard the painful waver in Norway's voice. Not once during their childhood had Norway allowed his emotions to show. He was cold and even calculating at times. "This is for the best."
Denmark had restrained himself from demanding an explanation as Norway turned his back and left the room like a shadow shrinking away from light. They'd talk about tomorrow morning after he read the note. That had been the plan anyway. It was just that Denmark hadn't expected him to be gone the next day. Just gone. As if he never existed.
"You're ignoring me again," Iceland said.
"I'm not trying to." Denmark shook away thoughts of Norway. It wasn't worth getting depressed over because he was going to fix the problem. "Anyway, I have to go catch my train soon, so when Sweden and Finland get here, make sure Sweden doesn't get into my beer, and constantly remind him about how awesome I am. Also, tell Finland not to cry. It's not like I'm dead. If they bring Sealand, the only way to save the house is to contain him. I'd go for the oven as a prime holding container. If Mr. Puffin takes a crap on my bed again, I'm roasting him. Make sure you feed the fish and keep everything super clean."
"I do that anyway," Iceland said. "Ever since Norway left it seems I'm the only one who does anything productive around here." Denmark brushed by the shorter nation to get to the living room. He crossed his arms and took a deep breath. It was going to be awhile before he saw this place again with its comfortable décor and easy access to alcoholic beverages.
He could still see Norway in every part of the room: the way he used to lounge on the couch and read, stopping only to shoot blank and yet somehow still disapproving stares at his housemates. From the kitchen his mind brought up the familiar clicking of dishes being washed. Norway was the only one with the patience to do them, and it was the perfect opportunity to hear him sing. It was always the same song, so sad and lonely.
Mitt lille land
Et lite sted, en håndfull fred
slengt ut blant vidder og fjord
Denmark always crept closer despite knowing Norway would stop.
Mitt lille land
Der høye fjell står plantet
mellom hus og mennesker og ord
Og der stillhet og drømmer gror
Som et ekko i karrig jord
He never sang past the second verse, for at that point Denmark had encroached on his solitude, and what oddly felt like his privacy. The dishes were done in silence, and no matter how long he waited by the kitchen, Norway remained quiet for the rest of the night.
Denmark swallowed the bitterness the memory caused and continued his final check of the living room.
"Make sure that you don't stay up too late like your brother did. It leads to bad skin." Bad skin had never been an issue for Norway, but Iceland was still young.
"Denmark." Iceland followed him into the kitchen. Denmark opened his fridge and took out a few cold cuts in order to make a hurried smørrebrød. It was a long bike ride to the train station and he needed something light to fill his stomach. "Listen—"
"Oh, and make sure Finland doesn't feed Hanatamago any cheese. She threw up in one of my boots last time, and if it happens again I'm going to punt her off a cliff."
"You've threatened to do that five times in the past forty eight hours. Mr. Puffin's life has been threatened twelve." Iceland reached up and stroked the dark feathers of Mr. Puffin's chest. The bird cooed appreciatively from his place on Iceland's shoulder.
"I mean it. Cheesy dog puke is gross, but bird crap will give you diseases." Denmark finished putting his toppings on his slice of rye bread and bit into it without tasting it. It was gone too quickly and he reached into his pocket to check his ticket. Where were Sweden and Finland? Finland made it clear that if he left without saying goodbye, there would be non-stop texting, calling, and bitching until he came back. He knew it wasn't a bluff. He could be gone for ten years and Finland would still make it a habit to blow up his phone with guilt-tripping reminders of how he abandoned them all.
"Denmark, please listen." Iceland's tone became hesitant and he pursed his lips. "I don't think you're going to find him. Don't you remember the note he left?" Denmark stopped on his preparations for a moment, but only for a moment. Of course he remembered the note. He had read it so many times that the paper had fallen apart last year.
I have to leave. I've wanted to go back to my own house for a long time because I miss my land and people. Everyday feels empty without them, and you aren't making it any better. You don't listen, you're bossy, and frankly I'm tired of peeling you off the sidewalk whenever you have one too many at the bar. The number of shirts you've ruined is unsettling, not to mention how many times you've attempted to fistfight Mr. Puffin.
I can't keep taking care of you like this and your selective hearing comes across as disrespectful even though that's giving you too much credit. I know it sounds cruel, but this is the way I feel. Take care of Iceland, stop being such a rasshøl, and maybe I'll come back. I don't know.
P.S. Don't bother trying to reach me in Oslo. You won't find me until you learn something important.
Denmark didn't know what that something important was supposed to be, and reading that note felt like a punch in the gut. His selective hearing couldn't contend with the written word. There were Norway's true feelings, glaring up at him for five straight years, and punctuated by his best friend's absence. There was no mishearing that. It left Denmark wondering if he was really that hard to live with. Granted Sweden and Finland ran away from him, but that was their own fault.
"Well, he said he would come back when I supposedly learned something important." Denmark fixated Iceland with a confidant grin. "And what better way to learn something important than to go on a soul-searching trip across Europe!" He patted the smaller nation's shoulder. "Don't worry! It'll go off without a hitch and when I come back, I'll be a new man! One Norway can't stay away from!"
"You mean you'll be less of an idiot?" Iceland said flatly.
"Thanks, Iceland. I knew you'd understand." Denmark gave Iceland's head a gentle pat without hearing exactly what the other nation said. Something about being a doughnut? Weird, but then Iceland was related to the most whimsical, hard to read guy on the planet. "Don't worry. I'm a big country. I'm potty trained and everything!"
"You just don't give up." A rare smile tugged at the right corner of Iceland's mouth, but then it was gone within a second. Iceland's violet eyes slid away and focused on the empty living room. Something in the younger country's gaze was so fragile Denmark wondered if he could see Norway's fading ghost too. "It's been five years. He left me too, you know? Only I didn't even get a note."
"The note he left was for all of us." He didn't believe that for a second. There was too much blame in that note for any of it to be directed at Iceland.
"Then why was it only addressed to you?" Iceland apparently didn't believe it either.
"Because Norge was too lazy to write all of our names," Denmark said with a grin he didn't entirely feel. It faded when Iceland simply turned away and plopped down on the couch, curling his knees to his chest. His violet eyes glared at the opposite wall. Denmark sighed and sat on the arm of the couch. "Look, Iceland." The elder nation furrowed his fingers through his unruly blond hair. He was never good at this kind of thing. Emotions sucked enough as it was, but trying to navigate them was worse than any raging sea during his Viking days. "You know Norway loved you. He was obviously upset with me ... and things didn't work out. None of it was your fault?" He added hopefully.
"You're giving me the parents are divorcing speech." Iceland continued to glare at the wall.
"He probably thought it was best if he went to see other nations for a time?" He flinched. Wow, that was dumb. Iceland glared at him from the corner of his eye. "But you know I'll always be here!" Denmark hastily lifted his hands. "You know, besides this whole Euro trip thing. Other than that, you can count on me for anything!"
"That's the mommy cheated speech." Iceland's eyes refocused on the wall.
"We'll both be back soon?" Denmark got the sudden urge to slam his forehead into the blade of his ax. "So be nice to Finland and Sweden because they're a walking party?"
"That's the parents leaving child with babysitter speech."
"I'm sure he's in a better place."
"Now you're making it sound like he's dead. Good job. I feel so much better."
"You know what? I give up! You're impossible to comfort!" Denmark threw his hands in the air and stalked back into his room. He decided to forget the suitcase and go for a light backpack with all the essentials. That was more logical. Mr. Calzone was coming regardless if he was practical or not and Denmark placed his pizza-faced friend in the front pocket on his backpack. The whole trip was going to take a little over two weeks if he kept his times straight and didn't miss any trains and ... dammit!
Denmark was trembling so badly he was dropping his carefully rolled clothes all over the floor. Pressing the heels of his hands into his eyes he took a deep breath. He needed to calm down and get back to packing. Sweden and Finland didn't need to see him acting like a shaky mess.
"Hey," Iceland's voice floated into the room, soft and tentative. "Look …I…I'm sorry." Denmark didn't say anything and roughly zipped up the backpack. A rush of exhaled air from the doorway told him Iceland was working his way back to frustration. "And it seems we're back to square one." It didn't take very long, Denmark mused.
"I wonder what time it is." He moved to the bed and sat down to glare daggers at the clock.
"Denmark, you can't ignore problems to make them go away. I just don't see the point in you leaving for so long on the nonexistent chance you'll have a life-changing epiphany that will magically bring Norway back."
"So what if it doesn't?"
"Wait. What?"
Denmark met Iceland's surprised expression and tried to order his thoughts into something that made some semblance of sense. "He left because of me. Five years and I still haven't changed." He stopped, took a deep breath, and leaned back on his hands to stare up at the ceiling. "I'm old enough to know that when people leave," he paused and forced his tongue to form the next few painful words, "it's usually forever."
"I don't understand." Iceland's brows furrowed and in that moment he looked so much like Norway it sent an icy stab of pain right between Denmark's ribs. "This is for Norway…right?"
"Yeah…kind of…I mean, ugh! Give me a sec." He needed to explain himself better. This wasn't just about Norway coming back. Not on its own anyway. No, he owed Norway this. "It's just five years is hardly a blip on my radar." It felt odd to admit it out loud. Nations were never ones to acknowledge their ages, especially if Poland was anyone to go by, and though Denmark was aware he was pretty far up there in the centuries, he'd never seen himself as old.
But he was old. Maybe even ancient if he stretched it enough. "I'm too set in my ways to change by staying here feeling sorry for myself. I need to do something...so I can be better…so that if Norway ever does come back… he'll want to stay and no one else will want to leave." He absentmindedly rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand and laughed. "Damn, that sounded a lot less stupid in my head."
"So that's it." Iceland padded over to the bed and sat down as well, knotting his fingers together and gazing down at his knees. "It's not just for Norge, but for all of us?"
"Only Norge can make five years seem like five centuries, but it'd be a pretty shitty existence without Sweden to remind me with his face how breathtakingly superior I am." He smiled gently. "I barely see the happy couple as it is. You're young, kiddo. If I don't take a good look at myself and calm the fuck down some, you'll get tired too."
"Will I?" Iceland's voice was quiet, almost as if he were entertaining the notion.
"As much as I know you hate to admit it, you're a lot like him. Sometimes so much so it hurts." Denmark felt another warm hand rest over his. He looked down at Iceland and felt a surprised flutter in his chest. Iceland refused to look at him and his cheeks colored with discomfort.
"I had hoped when he first left, we'd at least see him at the next world meeting, but nothing. Five years without a call, letter or email. It's almost like he was never here. I…miss him." Iceland removed his hand from on top of Denmark's and stood, meeting the older country's eye with a glare. "And if you find him, don't you dare tell him I said that or I'll light the couch on fire."
"Whatever you say, Ice." Denmark smirked and the two fell into a comfortable silence. It was nice to know he wasn't the only one who felt incomplete. A knock on the door interrupted their quiet reverie and Denmark rushed out of his room. "Finally! It took them long enough."
"Denmark!" Upon opening the door he was promptly attacked by a tearful blond blur.
"Hey, Finland." Denmark rolled his eyes and ignored the glare Sweden gave him. Well, he wasn't sure if Sweden was really glaring or if it was just his face again, but whatever. It wasn't his fault Finland decided to latch onto him. Glancing down to hip level he saw Sealand clinging to Sweden's hand.
"Hey, Denmark! Got any candy?" The little boy gazed up with so much hope, Denmark almost regretted instructing Iceland to keep him the oven.
"No c'ndy," Sweden said.
"But Papa!"
"I'm so glad we caught you! Sorry if we kept you waiting." Finland released him and stood back. "Look at you. You're all ready to go and everything."
"Yup!" Denmark grinned and stepped outside onto his lawn. "I was just on my way out so I'll see you guys later."
"But we just got here!" Finland's eyes widened. "At least let us have a proper goodbye."
"Sure. Goodbye. Now I have to go." Honestly, Denmark hated wishing anyone goodbye. People got all teary and obnoxious, and he'd rather his journey begin on a less depressing, snotty note. "Thanks for everything!" Of course, just as he was about to bolt around the house for his bike, Iceland appeared and Denmark felt his resolve wither. Iceland's blank, but still disapproving look was so identical to Norway's that it pinned him in place. Norge would be proud. For Denmark it reminded him of the hollow place in his heart.
"Just say goodbye, moron," Iceland said. "They came all this way for you." Denmark opened his mouth to protest, but then felt his voice die in his throat when he caught sight of Finland's teary eyes and trembling lower lip. Ugh, he was doing the face. Finland had this…thing where he could make anyone feel horribly guilty with how cute he was before pulling out a sniper and shooting them in the face. Point blank. He'd do it too. Finland was flipping batshit insane when he wanted to be. He held his own against Russia during the Winter War after all.
"Fine." Denmark groaned and held out his arms. He was going to regret this. "Come here." Finland's face lit up and he hurried forward to wrap his arms around Denmark's waist. He was such a tiny thing in stature sometimes it was hard to imagine how much Finland endured as a nation.
"Be safe, okay?" Finland pressed his cheek into Denmark's chest, and though he hated goodbyes, Denmark couldn't help but feel the rush of genuine affection twinge at his heartstrings. Yeah. He needed to leave. Pronto. "Call us as soon as you get to Germany's."
"I will."
"No drinking in places you don't know and don't drink alone."
"All right."
"If you run out of money, call."
"If you miss your train, call."
"I will."
"And if you get scared or lonely—"
"I'll call." He placed his hands on Finland's shoulders and held him at arm's length. So far Finland hadn't started sobbing. There was a plus. He could handle a few tears, but as soon as snot dripped into the scene he was gone. "I'm the King of Scandinavia, remember? I'll be fine!"
"I know you will." Finland smiled up at him. "But that's because I packed you some extras!" It was then that he noticed Finland was wearing his own backpack. "Sweden and I made you some snacks in case you get hungry." He opened the bag and gave Denmark a metal tin. He peeked inside and was greeted by many star-shaped cookies.
"Oh, wow. Thanks, guys." Okay, so maybe it was good he hadn't made a tactical retreat upon their arrival. The cookies smelled like a mouth-orgasm waiting to happen.
"W'lcome," Sweden grumbled from where he towered behind his little "wife." Denmark bit his tongue against an involuntary laugh. He still wasn't over that, but it was best not to mention it to Finland unless he wanted cyanide sprinkled over the cookies when he wasn't looking. He fondly remembered how Norway used to strangle him with his own tie whenever he went overboard with making fun of them. Sometimes Norway wouldn't let go until he was nearly unconscious. Good times.
"You're taking the InterCity Express to Hamburg, right?" Finland asked.
"That's the plan. First class and everything. It's going to be so great!" Denmark threw a fist in the air. He loved trains, especially the nice ones. "From there it's to Berlin. Whole thing should take about five or six hours, give or take."
"You still have your tickets right?" Iceland asked. "And your bike bag?"
"Duh," Denmark said. He reached over to place the tin of cookies into his backpack. "Don't worry, I got this. I better go, though. The first train leaves at three forty-five."
"Well, it's two o'clock now," Sealand said.
"Oh, before you do." Finland met Sweden's eye and the larger nation nodded curtly. Denmark felt a hollow sense of dread overtake his excitement.
"Finland, no," he said as the other nation held out a little white Maltese puppy. Hanatamago gave a friendly bark and wagged her tail. "Finland, this has bad idea written all over it."
"No, no. Sweden and I both agreed. We don't feel comfortable with you traveling by yourself, so we want you to take Hana." Finland practically thrust the puppy into Denmark's face. Her pink tongue snaked out and licked his nose.
"Gross!" Denmark reeled away and scrubbed his nose with his sleeve. "Finland, I can't take care of a dog. I didn't reserve a ticket for one."
"ICE allows dogs as long as you keep them muzzled and leashed. I know. I googled it. Don't bother to lie," Finland said before Denmark could protest. "Besides, look how tiny she is!" He played with the puppy's tiny white front paws. "She'll fit right into your pack!"
"I already have too much crap to carry as it is! Finland, I appreciate it, I do, but I'm not taking the dog."
"I'd hate to say it, but if she were to go with Denmark, she'd probably die halfway to Hamburg," Iceland said. "Denmark isn't very…responsible."
"Hana can l'k after h'rself," Sweden said.
"Plus she's so cute!" Sealand added.
"Please Denmark?" Finland's lower lip jutted out again. "Do it for my sake? I'd feel better if you weren't traipsing around Europe alone."
"It's not like anything is going to happen. The cookies are enough. Besides, won't you miss it?" Denmark met Finland's eyes and knew it was a fatal mistake. There was no way he was going to win. Sweden was no better. The other nation's facial expression remained set in stone: mouth curved downwards and his creepy blue eyes glaring a hole into his forehead. In other words, he wasn't going to restrain his "wife." Bastard.
"You never know what might happen," Finland said. "It's supposed to be an unusually bad winter this year. Russia says General Winter's been even more unpleasant than usual, and I wouldn't put it past you to wander off into the snow while you're drunk and die of exposure. So please take Hana. It will help me not worry." Even Hana was giving him the big brown puppy eyes. She was kind of cute … in a barking shit factory kind of way. Denmark sighed and ran both hands down his face. When had he turned into such a pushover?
"Fine." He hung his head in defeat and extended his hands to take the puppy. "But if it dies, you only have yourselves to blame." He'd just leave her in some bushes once he got to Germany. She'd find her way home eventually. Dogs were good for that kind of thing, right?
"Yay! I know you and Hana will have a lot of fun." Finland threw his arms around Denmark's neck and pulled him down until their cheeks were pressed together. "You know you always have our number if you find yourself in a pinch. I know it's not Christmas, but I can always ride on my sleigh to come pick you up."
"I'll be fine, Finland. Now I have to go or else I'll miss my train."
"I know." Finland stepped back and reached up to cup Denmark's face in his hands. He suddenly felt very small and vulnerable. Finland had that way about him. His soft violet eyes were so full of affection and kindness. An involuntary lump rose in Denmark's throat. He wasn't sure why. It was just Finland. It wasn't like he was leaving forever. Not like Norway. Finland released him and sniffled lightly. "I hope you find what you're looking for."
"D'n't come back."
"Thanks Sweden." Denmark placed a hand on the other nation's shoulder. He was never sure what Sweden was saying, but it was best to let bygones be bygones. "Thanks you guys." Hanatamago wriggled in his hands and he placed her on top of his backpack. Surprisingly, she didn't try to jump down, but curled around his neck so that she was looking over his shoulder. That was fine so long as she didn't cause him any more grief.
He turned away from his friends and hurried around the house to pick up his bike. When he rolled it around to the walkway he looked back at his makeshift family: Sweden all menacing, Finland teary-eyed but trying to smile, Sealand waving so hard he was practically flailing, and Iceland with an unreadable expression.
His stomach contracted and ached when he saw them all standing in front of his house. It was odd. He wondered why it hurt so much to leave. Had Norway felt the same way? Denmark knew he was the reason why Norway left, but had he also caused his best friend this pain? What was it like to look back at place you spent so much of your life in, knowing you weren't coming back?
"I'll see you later!" Denmark lifted a hand in a final farewell and got onto his bike. It was off to the train station. He didn't look back over his shoulder as he pedaled his way towards Copenhagen. He knew if he did he wouldn't want to leave, and he owed it to Norway to change.
The plan was to stay with Prussia and his kid brother for few days just to get his bearings. From there it was hostels and hotels. Sure there were plenty of nations who would be willing to take him in for a few days, but then that sort of felt like cheating. Life-changing epiphanies only happened when a person soul searched alone, right?
So Denmark begins his quest for a life-changing epiphany. I'm so excited next chapter, because come on, Gilbert and his awesome make his way onto the scene. Then there's yet more Denmark thinking of Norway. It's interesting to build a relationship between two characters when one isn't technically there. I'll be updating this as much as I can. Thank you!
Some Notes:
Mr. Calzone is real. He's a singing pizza. It's apparently from a popular Danish children's network, but don't quote me on that. (http : / / www. youtube. com /watch?v =ZbUm6Rys99c) There's the link. I have a feeling that Denmark thought it was awesome and so he demanded Sweden to make him a plushie of it for his birthday.
The song Norway is singing is called "Mitt Lille Land" or "My Little Country." It has to be one of the most beautiful songs I've heard in my life, especially the version by Maria Mena. (http :/ / www. youtube. com / watch?v = 6Dgoh5YXGb8& feature =related)
smørrebrød - Is an open-faced sandwich on rye bread. I took a virtual tour of Copenhagen in preparation for this fic, and they look so freaking delicious. Especially the ones with the fish *drools*
In the note, Norway calls Denmark an asshole, or at least that's what Wikipedia said. If it's wrong let me know and I will change it!

Peter, Wendy, Captain Hook, the lost boys, and Tinker Bell have filled the hearts of children ever since Barrie's play first opened in London in 1904 and became an immediate sensation. Now this funny, haunting modern myth is presented with Bedford's wonderful illustrations, which first appeared in the author's own day, have long been out of print, and have never been equaled.
About the Author
ANNE MCCAFFREY was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and graduated cum laude from Radcliffe College, where she majored in Slavonic languages and literatures. A prolific bestselling author, McCaffrey is best known for her Dragonriders of Pern series. She lives in County Wicklow, Ireland.
Praise For Peter Pan…
"Barrie wrote his fantasy of childhood, added another figure to our enduring literature, and thereby undoubtedly made one of the boldest bids for immortality of any writer. . . . It is a masterpiece."

Williams, seeded third, won this tournament in 1999. She next faces second-seeded Ana Ivanovic, who defeated Czech teenager Petra Kvitova 6-1, 6-4.
Flavia Pennetta of Italy and Anabel Medina Garrigues of Spain also advanced and will meet in the semifinals Saturday. Pennetta was coming off an upset of top-ranked Jelena Jankovic.
Williams improved to 5-0 against Schiavone, a semifinalist last year.
"She is a good competitor," Williams said. "She went for a lot out there today, sometimes maybe a little too much. I think I played more consistent than in my first match."
After trading five straight breaks, Williams served at 5-3 and held to love to win the first set. When she faced three break points while up 4-3 in the second set, Williams reeled off two service winners, a forehand volley at the net and two aces to win the game and soon the match.
Ivanovic reached her first semifinal since winning the French Open in June. Injuries have limited her to seven wins since. The Serb has a 1-4 record against Williams, but beat the American in their last match in the Australian Open quarterfinals.
Pennetta defeated Slovenia's Katarina Srebotnik 7-5, 6-2. A two-time winner on tour this year, Penetta broke Srebotnik at 5-5 with a backhand service return, then converted her first set point with an ace. She then broke Srebotnik to open the second set, again in the seventh game, and sealed the win with a backhand.
Medina Garrigues advanced when Victoria Azarenka of Belarus retired with a shoulder injury after they split the first two sets 4-6, 6-3.

Meet Our Founders
Ready to take the next step in your career? Check out open positions today by clicking the link below.
Our strategy and technology consultants have empowered our international clients with the knowledge and experience they need to build their own local resources and capabilities.
Our clients call upon us to work on their hardest problems—delivering effective health care, protecting warfighters and their families, keeping our national infrastructure secure, bringing into focus the traditional boundaries between consumer products and manufacturing as those boundaries blur.
Booz Allen was founded on the notion that we could help companies succeed by bringing them expert, candid advice and an outside perspective on their business. The analysis and perspective generated by that talent can be found in the case studies and thought leadership produced by our people.
We've come a long way delivering innovative solutions. But our next chapter is still being written.
Our 22,600 engineers, scientists, software developers, technologists, and consultants live to solve problems that matter. We're proud of the diversity throughout our organization, from our most junior ranks to our board of directors and leadership team.
Imagine Booz Allen Hamilton as a startup. In 1914, on the eve of World War I, a young college graduate in psychology named Edwin G. Booz went into business for himself. He was equipped with a set of new ideas about management.
Ed Booz believed passionately that he could help companies succeed by bringing them a human touch: expert, candid advice and an outside perspective on their businesses. He insisted that "people, not products" were the focus of work. And he knew that placing the right person in the right position with the right support would lead to better results than relying on any particular theory, method, or tool.
With that innovative approach, Ed Booz gave birth to the modern management consulting profession. And to this day, his core belief in finding good talent and embedding it in clients remains an essential quality of the company he founded.
For more than 100 years, we have been one step ahead, solving challenges where there were no roadmaps.
Smart cities and highways, the connected car, and the Internet of Things are front and center for Booz Allen's transportation and automotive work today, as is cybersecurity, a looming threat never imagined back in the days of the Studebaker. Read More
We are redefining consulting to advance the technology revolution.

Fondant Question
Decorating By grannymo Updated 5 Dec 2009 , 3:12am by JenniferMI
I am making layered cakes with fillings of white chocolate (pudding made with milk) & a raspberry filling with real berries. My question is if the cakes are covered in fondant can i leave them out overnight or do I have to refridgerate with the fondant on them? Thanks for your help
Because you are using perishable fillings, the cakes will have to be refrigerated. The fondant will be fine.
Thanks I will refridgerate
When you take it out of the frig, if you get any condensation, just don't touch it, it will evaporate.

They will continue to write tickets but they will be heard in Parma Municipal Court, Parma will get the court fees, and Linndale will still get the fine money. Its a cash grab by the muni court. Linndale will simply write more tickets to make up for their losses.

The Latest Extremism & Kookiness From Wackydemia

Really, James O'Keefe...how many times has his videos been debunked? I really have a hard time believing that someone of your intelligence would believe this given O'Keefe's despicable track record.
Get real.

"how many times has his videos been debunked?"
None that I know of. Enlighten me please. So you think this is made up, huh Ralph? You should inform Cornell University since they're not denying it and have even put out a statement about the video:
"Cornell fully supports the free exchange of ideas and does not review or control the political ideology of our students. We do not, of course, tolerate unlawful advocacy of violence, and the comment about training by ISIS freedom fighters does not reflect university policy," said Joel Malina, Cornell's vice president for university relations."

The accusing articles are as misleading and doubtful as the tactics they're criticizing. I think the video posted here speaks for itself. If you can't recognize that, then I think that's rather naive.

Description: A double is haunting the world--the double of abstraction, the virtual reality of information, programming or poetry, math or music, curves or colorings upon which the fortunes of states and armies, companies and communities now depend. The bold aim of this book is to make manifest the origins, purpose, and interests of the emerging class responsible for making this new world--for producing the new concepts, new perceptions, and new sensations out of the stuff of raw data. A Hacker Manifesto deftly defines the fraught territory between the ever more strident demands by drug and media companies for protection of their patents and copyrights and the pervasive popular culture of file sharing and pirating. This vexed ground, the realm of so-called "intellectual property," gives rise to a whole new kind of class conflict, one that pits the creators of information--the hacker class of researchers and authors, artists and biologists, chemists and musicians, philosophers and programmers--against a possessing class who would monopolize what the hacker produces. Drawing in equal measure on Guy Debord and Gilles Deleuze, A Hacker Manifesto offers a systematic restatement of Marxist thought for the age of cyberspace and globalization. In the widespread revolt against commodified information, McKenzie Wark sees a utopian promise, beyond the property form, and a new progressive class, the hacker class, who voice a shared interest in a new information commons.

Jan. 18, 2003
Provo, Utah - The Wyoming Cowgirl Basketball Team (10-5 overall, 0-2 MWC) came up short by the final of 67-59 to the Brigham Young Cougars (12-3 overall, 2-0 MWC) on Saturday afternoon in Provo.
The Cowgirls opened up the game by taking a 5-1 lead with two free throws and a three point field goal from Carrie Bacon, but the Cougars scored the next eight points to take their first lead of the game 9-5. Behind a hot shooting Carrie Bacon, who scored the Cowgirls first 11 of 17 points, Wyoming battled back with a 12-2 run to regain a 17-11 advantage. A three point field goal from Erin Thorn pulled the Cougars within three, but once again the Cowgirls would respond with a three point basket from Brenda PIckup to retake a six point lead. It would be an advantage that would grow to as many as eight in the half, but down 28-21 to Wyoming the Cougars made a 6-0 run in the final minute of the half to only go into the halftime break down 28-27.
Wyoming's Carrie Bacon led all scorers with 11, while several individuals finished the half with three rebounds. Other scorers for the Cowgirls included Brenda Pickup and Ann McColl with six, Darci Arsene with three and Chassie Wiersma with two. As a team, the Cowgirls were 9-26 (.346) from the field and 5-7 (.714) from beyond the arc.
BYU carried some of their momentum into the start of the second half by going on an 8-2 run to take their largest lead of the game to that point 35-30. The Cowgirls answered with a couple of baskets to close within one, but the Cougars responded by scoring the next 14 of 15 points to widen their lead to 49-35. The Cowgirls struggled offensively as they only had two field goals and nine points through the first ten minutes of the second half. The momentum seemed to shift towards Wyoming at about the seven minute as a 9-2 run brought them to within nine points, but just as quickly BYU scored a couple of quick baskets to retain their double-digit lead. It would go down to the final couple of minutes in the game as the Cowgirls had pulled to within seven, 57-50, unfortunately the Cougars had an answer for each Wyoming score. A couple of three point shots made it close in the end, but BYU sealed with several free throws to take the 67-69 victory.
"We just ran out of time," said head coach Cindy Fisher. "I think if there were two more minutes in this game, because momentum was really in our favor. We did exactly what we wanted, limited Erin Thorn's touches and did a good job on their big people, unfortunately we had a hard time a hard time putting the ball in the basket. We have to find new ways to Ashley open shots and people who can get the ball in the basket."
"Carrie did a really nice job and hit some terrific shots, and our defense was phenomenal. To get ten offensive boards off a team like this shows great effort and they worked really hard, but we have to figure out a way to score."
Senior Carrie Bacon was the leading scorer for both teams with 19, while she was also the leading rebounder for the Cowgirls with seven. Ann McColl recorded 12 points and Darci Arsene finished with 10. BYU's Erin Thorn was the top scorer and rebounder with 15 points and nine rebounds. The Cowgirls struggled from the field shooting 19-48 (.396), while the Cougars were 22-46 (.478) from the field
Wyoming will continue conference play this week at home as they host the Air Force Academy on Thursday night at 7:00 p.m. and then the New Mexico on Saturday afternoon at 2:00 p.m.

Although an undeniably compelling trinity of argumentation, it is not without its logical problems.

About MeHello! I'm Renee.
Being in front of the camera has always come easily to me, and I absolutely love every aspect of the industry and everything about a shoot. I am easygoing as well as fun loving and energetic, so expect to have fun while we shoot; you might even get a few jokes out of me :) I am spontaneous and creative and will go the extra mile to get an amazing photo, but I would like to say up front that there are some genres that are just not for me. I do not shoot full nudes nor will I do anything that I feel is distasteful. That being said, I believe photography is an art and am open to trying pretty much anything to get a beautiful image.
As of now I am working to expand my portfolio and would especially like to try new things that are not currently in my port, so if you've got any ideas, please feel free to share.
Best regards, look forward to working with you soon.
