- Vultures - I recently added this to the Suggested Reading. This is an amazing pasta, one of the few I've given a 10. It's so incredibly well written and beautifully narrated. It's not creepy in the literal sense, but the comparisons do really make you think, and you will shudder at the cruelty that humans can be capable of. Definitely recommended.
- The Legend of the Hightown Crow - Absolutely outstanding. I recommend that you take maybe 2 or 3 nights to read this, because it's very long (around 16,000 words), but do not let that put you off. The writing is absolutely fantastic, it's terrifying when it needs to be, and characterization is magnificently done. A maximalism effort which I greatly appreciate. The diligence that went into this, is a wonderful example of what people who want to write, should follow.
- Fred's Detector - The author of this has a small selection of short stories on this site which are really good, and this one really stand out to me. It's really good. They take an normal, everyday hobby and put a bizarre, creepy twist on it. Short, but it's very effective. Really for those who love the Weird pastas.
- Comfort in Numbers - I nominated this for PotM for February. Brilliantly executed, sharp writing, unsettling plot, and a peculiar protagonist. Very enjoyable.
- The Aldercott Woman - Another user who has a collection of short stories on this site, which are particularly good. Again, it's shorter than what I usually post here, but it's certainly very effective. Very descriptive, and a creepy plot too.
- Razor's Edge (WARNING: This pasta is NSFW) - Quite a shocking twist in this one. Such vibrant detail in this one, that it's told crystal clear. Description peaks at times too, but it's not overly-descriptive, so it's easy to follow. Very mysterious, and simple plot.
- Synergy - Written by a friend of mine on this site. Very descriptive writing, with a sort of fantasy-esque twist on war. Military pastas can be quite repetitive, but this one stands out because of its originality.
Thank you reading this! Don't forget to post your own suggestions and why you recommend that pasta.

MAJ,J.PIEKŁO MLCF AN OPTIMISED PROGRAM OF LOW-CYCLE FATIGUE TEST TO DETERMINE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CAST MATERIALS MLCF ZOPTYMALIZOWANY PROGRAM NISKOCYKLOWEJ PRÓBY ZMĘCZENIOWEJ DO OKREŚLANIA WŁAŚCIWOŚCI MECHANICZNYCH TWORZYW ODLEWNICZYCH The article describes the mechanical properties determined from an optimised program of modified low-cycle fatigue test (MLCF) using ductile iron as a test material. The results were compared with the results obtained from standard low-cycle fatigue test (LCF). The investigations are particularly interesting in all those cases when obtaining the required repeatability of properties of the investigated material poses some problems, even if samples are taken from the same melt, or the same variant of heat treatment is applied. W artykule zaprezentowano właściwości mechaniczne określone w oparciu o zoptymalizowany program zmodyfikowanej niskocyklowej próby zmęczeniowej (MLCF) dla żeliwa sferoidalnego i porównano je z wynikami uzyskanymi zgodnie z procedurą klasycznej wersji niskocyklowej próby zmęczeniowej LCF. Badania te są szczególnie interesujące w tych wszystkich przypadkach, w których trudno jest uzyskać powtarzalność właściwości materiału badawczego, pochodzącego nawet z tego samego wytopu, czy wariantu obróbki cieplnej. 1. Introduction Different applications of cast products and efforts to use them in a best way possible are one of the reasons why it is so important to provide some tools that would enable collecting a complete set of data regarding properties of the examined materials. One of the main problems commonly faced in the application of materials is to know their behaviour under the normally and rapidly changing loads, in other words, to know their fatigue strength [1]. The fatigue strength of materials is one of the basic criteria which enable forecasting the behaviour of a selected material when operating under load conditions. This property determines the level of admissible loads, i.e. of the safe loads that the material can endure without failure. The standard fatigue test, which consists in plotting a Wöhler curve for the examined material, has been known since a long time. A definite drawback of this test is the relatively large number of the specimens that should be examined to obtain reliable results. This means that if the test stands and the testing equipment are not available in a number sufficient for several fatigue tests to be carried out at the same time, applying different medium loads and varying maximum stress amplitude, the whole experiment may take quite a long time (several weeks even). The application of static tensile test with modified low-cycle fatigue test enables the test time to be reduced quite considerably. The test uses positive tensile cycles ranging from a near-zero value to the preset value. Between these values, the cyclic fatigue loading (load on load off) is carried out. A test of this type eliminates the necessity of using in one single measurement several or several dozen specimens. It has been observed that the condition of permanent strain is well stabilised after the number of cycles definitely smaller than the number of cycles resulting in failure (accommodation). This makes loading of a specimen with the number of cycles leading to its failure unnecessary [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. FACULTY OF FOUNDRY ENGINEERING, AGH UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, KRAKÓW, 23 REYMONTA STR., POLAND
2 The description of computer-aided MLCF test program In its original form, the computerised program was first used by A. Karamara [4] and M. Maj [3]; later it has been adapted to the use with an MTS TestStar IIs machine, equipped with modern control system [5]. In this study, the most important elements of the system will be described. Quite naturally, they all require further improvements to raise the versatility of the whole application. The program enables the modulus of elasticity to be determined in its general form, within the range of different stresses for stable mechanical hysteresis: (1) E = σ 2 σ 1 ε 2 ε 1, (1) where: σ 1 ; ε 1 the stress and strain for the lower vertex of a mechanical hysteresis loop, σ 2 ; ε 2 the stress and strain for the upper vertex of the loop. As a next step, the following parameters are determined: the apparent elastic limit R 0,02 ; the apparent limits R 0,05 and R 0,1 ; the yield strength R 0,2 ; the accommodation limit R a ; the estimated value of the rotary bending fatigue strength Z go ; the values of material constants determined from a low-cycle fatigue test: b, c, n, the true stress K; the maximum total admissible strain ε max, and the tensile strength R m. The fatigue strength Z go, necessary for computation of the parameters used in MLCF test, is determined from the test curve plotted for different material families, starting with pure metals and ending in ferrous and non-ferrous metal alloys (Fig.1.) Fig. 1. The Curve for fatigue strength determination [2] The most important quantity determined in the MLCF test is the maximum admissible total strain for the number of cycles corresponding to a fatigue limit of the examined material. ε c = ε e + ε p = σ f E (2N f ) b + ε f (2N f ) c, (2) where: ε c the maximum total admissible strain, ε e the elastic (reversible) strain, ε p the permanent (true) strain after 2N f load cycles, ε f the permanent (true) strain induced by the stress σ f, σ f the stress approaching the tensile strength (in materials with distinct plastic properties this is the stress preceding the formation of a neck ), b the fatigue strength coefficient (Basquin coefficient), c the fatigue deformability exponent. All of the above mentioned parameters are examined on one specimen, and this is obviously the most important advantage of the new method, especially if we consider the fact that the static mechanical properties and those which are responsible for the low-cycle fatigue strength give very exact picture of the examined material, irrespective of how heterogeneous its structure may be. In standard LCF test, to obtain information on the maximum total admissible strain, it is necessary to repeat the test on at least dozen specimens, and actually this is not the only problem posed by this method. It may also happen that the configuration of the examined object or material will make preparation of the required number of the specimens impossible, and so, also in this aspect the new method can offer some benefits.
3 Mechanical tests Tests were carried out on ductile iron specimens. The shape and dimensions of the specimens used in the present study are shown on figure 2 and in table 1. Fig. 2.

The LCF material life curve for ductile iron The results of the LCF test were processed by the method of the least squares. In the case of MLCF test, the arithmetic means of the examined parameters were analysed (specimens 1 5 from table 2). The following values were obtained: b = - 0,086, c = - 0,160, ε max 10 6 = Table 3 gives the computed values of b = - 0,061, c = - 0,36, ε max 10 6 = 1420; using these values the LCF life curves were plotted. They are shown in figure 3. Comparing the results obtained from the two testing methods, a good consistency between the calculated values can be observed. Some attention deserves also the fact that in the standard LCF method, assigned as a matter of fact for the determination of maximum total true strain, to ensure the repeatability of results, it is necessary to provide a required number of the specimens. This condition can be satisfied only when the tested material is of a homogeneous structure, like e.g. the toughened steel characterised by a uniform dispersion of its structural phase constituents. The problem becomes even more complicated when the fatigue test is carried out on a cast material, as in this case one should expect a very non-homogeneous structure, which may seriously affect the level and scatter of the obtained results of the mechanical properties testing. Therefore, basing on the obtained results, it seems ful-
5 397 ly justified to confirm once again the purposefulness of having the standard LCF test replaced with a new and original MLCF method, as the latter one requires only one specimen for the determination of several mechanical parameters, reducing in this way to minimum the possible side effects of the structural inhomogeneities. Moreover, if such inhomogeneities do happen to exist, it is possible to identify the causes of differences in the obtained mechanical characteristics of a product or material. 4. Summary Tests conducted in accordance with the modified low-cycle fatigue program (MLCF) enable obtaining the reliable results. This refers to both the static properties and a fatigue behaviour of the tested materials the fact that can never be overestimated when materials of a heterogeneous structure are to be examined, and when we remember that in the standard LCF test it is necessary to have at leat 15 specimens (3 specimens falling to one measuring point) to measure the parameters of a low-cycle test. In the original MLCF program, the same parameters of a low-cycle test can be obtained on one specimen only, besides properties like the fatigue limit or other apparent limits. In this study, using ductile iron as an example, it has been proved that, irrespective of the method applied for evaluation of the low-cycle fatigue behaviour (standard LCF test vs the new original MLCF test), a satisfactory consistency between the measured mechanical parameters was obtained. Nevertheless, full validation of this method requires that the same investigations are carried out also on steel.

Robinson has two wins in two tries while MSU's Cousins (1-1), Dobbs (1-0 with Navy), Kinne (1-0 with Tulsa) and Barkley (1-0 with USC) each took home a victory vs. Kelly's Irish. But its Stanford's Luck (1-0 with one on tap this week) that ranks as the hands-down best quarterback Notre Dame has faced, maybe over a five-season span dating back to (at least) Matt Ryan and Boston College in 2007.
"There is nobody in college football that is doing what Andrew Luck is doing," said his head coach David Shaw this week. "Don't forget, I spent nine years in the NFL. I evaluated every single quarterback that came out in the NFL during that time and have seen all of the good ones since then. There is nobody that I've heard of that does as much at the line of scrimmage in college football. There are not that many guys in the NFL that are doing as much as Andrew is at the line of scrimmage.
"The guy is running the game at the line of scrimmage. He's controlling the protections. He's controlling the running game," Shaw continued. "We're calling three, four plays in the huddle, which most guys can't even think about handling and he does that."
Luck's pre-snap prowess has forced the Irish to take notice. But it's the magic in his right arm, coupled with his greatly underrated mobility that has Irish linebackers wary heading into Saturday's contest.
"He's the best guy at his position," said Irish linebacker and Butkus finalist Manti Te'o. "But, yeah, I'm going to try to trick him; get in his head; do what I do and depending on how he'll react I'll adjust too."
Read, React…and find a wayPart of Luck's success has been his symbiotic relationship with the team's tight ends in the short and middle zones, and down the seams – areas that have hurt the Irish on more than a few occasions over the last two seasons.
"It definitely starts out with how big they are. They're tall and they go up and get the ball," Te'o said of Stanford's tight ends, adding, "They're physical at the point of attack. They help their offense move and as a linebacker you have to be aware of that.
"Our eyes have to be in the right place."
Kelly knows it'll take more than eye recognition for his defensive back seven to deter Luck.
"Poise under pressure more than anything else," said Kelly of Luck's greatest attribute. "Some of the throws that he made against us last year: we brought an all out blitz inside the 15-yard line, and we had a free blitzer and he just kept back pedaling and hit a tight end on a choice route in the end zone (Coby Fleener for a touchdown).
"That's poise under pressure. He has the ability to make the throws when he's under duress as well. And to have that, you've got to have the skill, but also the utmost confidence in your ability. He has all this intrinsic things necessary to be a great quarterback."
Luck has fired 31 touchdowns and just eight interceptions, completing (and here's the catch vs. Notre Dame's sometimes soft zones) 70 percent of his passes this season. Like Notre Dame signal-caller Tommy Rees, Luck is difficult to sack (Stanford has allowed 9 sacks; Notre Dame 8). Unlike Rees, part of that problem for opposing defenses is his ability to beat teams with his feet.
He's a complete quarterback and unquestioned No. 1 NFL Draft Pick in April 2012.
"He's the driver out there," said Irish defensive coordinator Bob Diaco of Luck. "He gets them in the right plays and makes the right reads. He's going to find your little void area (in zones) and he the receivers are in coordination, they're all on the same page. They know where to sit it down; he knows where they're going to sit it down; the ball comes out quick and it's on them right (away). He has a strong, accurate arm that can make all the throws, so he's a special player."
Luck isn't invincible; he's thrown two pick-6's in the Cardinal's last three contests including a loss to Oregon and overtime escape vs. USC.
Notre Dame picked him off twice last year, held him to the aforementioned touchdown to Fleener, and kept him to respectable completion (19 of 32) and yardage (238) totals. But his ability to move the chains on third down (six passing first downs with a touchdown) ultimately doomed Irish efforts.
"I don't know that he's going to get confused by anything," Kelly said of Luck. "I think it's a matter of us doing a really good job in play action and knowing when he's going to throw it.
"Putting him in those positions when he has to throw the football is the most important thing. First and second down (success) is obviously are very crucial to us."
Said Kelly of the Cardinal balance: "If they can run the football with effectiveness, Andrew Luck will tear you apart."

In my opinion. Usually when I see a big.cartel store it is a turn off. But lets be real, the individuals you are communicating with in this forum are generally well-informed on the industry. Other people may not give a fuck.
i was just taking a guess to why you see alot of start ups use bigcartel. why is bigcartel a turn off?
When you know better, you do better.
Big cartel is not the only option. And with the amount of money you guys spend on the "montly fees" you can purchase a URL from GoDaddy and have it hosted for a yearly subscription and still come out cheaper. And have the control over however many shirts you want.
I have posted this a few times in here.
Do some reading and treat yourself to extra money in your pocket.

Details for Project Schools
School Selection
The deadline to apply apply as a project school was 16 September 2016. The IBSC, in collaboration with CIRCLE, selected 47 boys' schools from nine countries to participate in this research project. The global cohort of project schools reflects a range of schools located in different regions and countries, as well as a range of socioeconomic student/family profiles and diversity of school types — i.e., day and boarding; independent and state; denomination-affiliated and secular; elementary, middle, and senior divisions; and small to large enrollment.
Responsibilities of a Project School
Each project school will:
- Appoint a project coordinator for communication and planning with the researchers.
- Facilitate and enable the in-school research activities associated with the project phases and schedule.
- Select some teachers and school leaders to participate in online or in-school focus groups or interviews as may be required.
- Enable a small team of teachers to attend a regional research workshop in the second year of the project.
- Coordinate with the researchers an in-school process to provide feedback on findings and recommendations associated with a draft framework for character education (in the second year of the project).
Cost to Project School
Project schools will pay a participation fee of US $2,000, paid in two equal installments on or before 1 October 2016 and 1 October 2017. To ensure a broad cross-section of schools participating in the research project, the IBSC offered financial assistance to project schools that qualified.

why only part of the page gets sent to meAsked by julie841 on September 02, 2015 at 04:43 PM
I use the form for my family services agreement, its a pretty long document of what the company does and what the family is required to do, but when they fill it out and it gets sent to me, its not the whole form, its only the bottom where they fill in sign and date and put address, so I can never prove in a court of law that they signed the agreement, I cant get the whole form they sign. how do I get the whole form and not just the signatures?
I have attached what gets sent to me, and if you look at the service agreement all the wording is gone. please help. thank you 503.619.5565 Julie
Hi julie841,
By default the headers, text fields are not included in the notification emails. The information that is automatically pulled to your email notification is only the fields from the form. You can however add the text directly to the email notification as the email composer is a full editor that allows to you to insert graphics, create tables, etc. The headers or text on your JotForm can be copied and pasted here in the email content.

Bundt Cake Pan.....
Baking By kcepenney Updated 8 Jun 2010 , 9:07pm by crystalina1977
Can a recipe that calls for a bundt pan be put into a regular cake pan? I have a wedding this weekend and the recipe says to put the batter in a bundt pan but I am using the 9" hexagon pan. Will it bake the same??
i would think those pans are roughly the same size - but you might want to check and see how many cups of batter your pan is supposed to hold, that way you are sure not to over fill...

On Language; Nice, Bossy
Published: November 5, 1989
SODA JERKS (NOW called >fountain attendants) know that a >black cow is a root beer float. What of >cash cow? ''It is apparent that [ Mortimer ] Zuckerman has improved the magazine during a very difficult period for newsmagazines,'' wrote Eleanor Randolph of The Washington Post about the owner of the competing U.S. News & World Report. But, ''On the business level, the magazine is no longer the >cash cow it once was.''
Writing about Time's merger with Warner, Newsweek observed ''Cable companies can be >cash cows, but they periodically dilute earnings while constructing their cable networks.'' Note the nice adverbial play on >periodical in that sentence - journalists enjoy covering each other - but the writers may not have been sensitive to the latest and slightly larcenous connotation of >cash cow.
This financial slang term, which popped up in the early 1970's, at first meant ''a dependable source of profit,'' with this refinement: ''a subsidiary company producing funds used to finance other investments or to nourish divisions of a corporation that do not produce current income.''
In the 1980's, however, our innocently bovine locution gained a second sense of ''com-pany being abused by predators,'' as in this angry comment recently quoted in The Los Angeles Times: ''Diamond International used United States Playing Card as a >cash cow, siphoning money to other areas. . . .'' The Washington Post wrote of a savings and loan officer ''accused of illegally milking First Maryland as 'their own >cash cow' from 1982 to 1985, squandering millions of depositors' dollars on themselves, insider loans, kickbacks and risky commercial ventures.''
The root of the metaphor is the pejorative use of the verb >to milk, in its sense of ''to draw off money or assets as if by milking.'' (The associated >to bilk, or defraud, may have come from an amalgam of >to balk and >to milk.) Stuart Berg Flexner of Random House thinks the new noun phrase was influenced by >cash crop, and may even be associated with the biblical >golden calf; I suppose >cash flow belongs in that network of roots.
Be careful of the changing meaning of this phrase, and guard against the herd instinct in stretching the metaphor: Forbes was stampeded into quoting a businessman in 1977 saying, ''As a >cash cow turns into a >dead horse, it's going to be gotten rid of.''
In a related development (a journalistic phrase that means ''might as well stick this on here''), U.S. News recently zapped its better-selling rival in this advertisement: ''According to The Wall Street Journal, Time magazine is about to reduce their rate base by another 300,000. Which means you'll be hearing a lot of the familiar excuses. . . .''
An institution or group is not plural, except in England; the English say >the audience are and >the public have, but Americans construe the group as singular. Thus, in referring to a magazine, it is incorrect to write of ''their'' rate base; it's >its. (I would add that the next sentence should have begun with >that rather than >which, but that would be flogging a cash cow.) Revanche Is Sweet
''GERMAN NAZISM marched under the standards of >revanchism,'' Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard A. Shevardnadze told the United Nations. ''Now that the forces of >revanchism are again becoming active and are seeking to revise and destroy the postwar realities in Europe. . . .''
The Times of London noted the usage: ''For decades, the Kremlin used >revanchism al-most as a synonym for West Germany,'' wrote Charles Bremner, ''but Mr. Shevardnadze's words appeared to encompass the nationalist movements erupting across the Baltic region as well as Bonn's policy of welcoming the flood of refugees from East Germany.''
Here's an old term we'll be hearing more from. >Revanchism is rooted in the French >revanche, ''revenge''; in diplomacy, it is the determination of a state to regain territory lost in war or through a treaty signed under duress.
Queen Victoria first used the French word ironically in English in an 1858 letter: ''She never allows a word to be said against Leopold who in revanche is much kinder to her than he was.'' In 1926, The Scots Observer gave it the political twist: ''It is France's policy [ toward Germany ] that the sores be kept open even if they give a handle to Monarchist revanchists.''
After World War II, Soviet speakers picked up the word to reapply to Germans who wanted the reunification of their country. ''Far from being an instrument of either 'American aggressors' or 'German revanchists' (as Soviet propaganda would picture it),'' wrote The New York Times in 1955, ''the North Atlantic alliance is entirely a defensive organization.''
The word is usually pronounced by Americans to rhyme with >ranch (''meanwhile, back at re>vanchism''), rather than the French rih-VAHNSH; that's curious, because we do not pronounce >detente dih-TENT. It has always been used pejoratively, since vengeance is supposed to be left to the Lord. Nobody identifies himself as a revanchist, because we attribute higher motives to our policies than merely getting even; >self-determination, ethnic pride and >nationalism are tossed about, but for an upbeat connotation and scholarly cachet, see your >irredentist twice a year. >Irredentism, from the Italian >irredenta, ''unredeemed,'' has associations with theology - ''not in a state of having made amends to God'' -but redemption was the political motive of Italians in the 19th century who wanted to incorporate certain regions like Trieste (>Italia irredenta) into the mother country.
Neither word can properly be applied to advocates for the Baltic nations, which are seeking the re-establishment of their previous independence, but that might not stop Soviet officials. Squad Squad Report Report
WHEN YOU SPOT A RE-dundancy, do you shrug your shoulders? Not if you are John Hersey. ''Have you noticed the redundant >is,'' writes the author, a member of the Squad Squad, ''with which we're being bombarded these days?''
Examples: ''The-bottom-line-is is that . . .'' and ''The-point-is is that. . . .'' We are grouping words in our minds just as shorthand transcribers grouped frequently used assemblages of words into ''brief forms.'' This should be resisted, if only on the grounds of redundancy, like ''START talks.''
Other members of the Squad Squad are on the alert for repetitive repetition. Michael J. Saxton of Davis, Calif., forwarded a memo from the chancellor of the local University of California that created ''an ad hoc task force,'' as if all task forces were not by their nature >ad hoc, Latin for ''to this,'' meaning ''for this task only.''
I was taken to task for referring to ''the Negev desert''; Wallace Alcorn of Austin, Minn., points out that >Negev means ''desert'' (as well as ''south'') in Hebrew. The writer aware of meanings uses only ''the Negev,'' unless thinking that readers do not know it's a desert; same thing with the >Sahara, rooted in the Arabic for ''desert.''
Years ago, the Wall Street firm of Salomon Brothers had ''Cold Gazpacho'' on its menu, but that sent a chill through fastidious diners: all gazpacho is cold.
Refer back (No!), if you will, to the opening sentence of this item. When I wrote that not a few of us were shrugging our shoulders at the use of >litotes, the double negation, Ed Cashin of the Bronx objected: ''>He shrugged means 'he lifted his shoulders,' so >he shrugged is correct and adding >his shoulders is incorrect.''
A >shrug was originally a shiver or shudder, but became a lifting or drawing up of the shoulders in an expression of indifference, distaste or puzzlement, sometimes accompanied by a sound approximating ''Ih!'' - ''You're asking me?''
The-point-is is that only shoulders are for shrugging; you cannot shrug your eyebrows, even though you can lift them. When shrugging, I side with the Squad Squad. As the couturier Claude Montana would say, with an eye to the 1990's, drop >the shoulders.

Bottled beer stood under a shelf, and there were two bags of haricot beans and some limp lettuces.
Next in usefulness to the haricot bean comes the German lentil.
I said to him, as he ate his bread with some preparation of haricot beans.
The dinner was composed of soup made of everything, and of veal with haricot beans.
Cold asparagus salad, while in season; new potato salad, German fashion; ditto, French and haricot beans.
These, as well as haricot beans, may be boiled with a piece of bacon.
Old pods should remain unpicked until nearly ripe, when the solid beans can be used for haricot soup or entres.
A bag of beans, of the variety known as "haricot," is the next candidate.
If our own fields do not contain the insect amateur of the haricot the New World knows it well enough.
A good deal can be done with haricot beans, tapioca, and sago.

Anime/ Manga
Pairing: Kagome/ Honey
Rating: k+/ T
Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha and Ouran High School Host Club. They belong to their rightful owners.
Things to Know: Kagome stumbles into the Host Club by accident trying to find Umehito Nekozawa, wanting to return his Belzeneef puppet that he mistakenly dropped. Honey, being the one to recover the fastest from the new comer, offers to show her- starting a new romance along the way.
One Shot-Multi chapter story.
Vanilla and Carmel Kago-Chan!
Chapter 1:
The Host Club was as busy as ever that day- like every day. There was a good amount of the female populace of the high school section of the Ouran Academy crammed into the abandoned 3rd music room on the third story of the massive academy.
There was a decent buzz in the room, the amount of chatter containing an almost constant drone that wasn't so over powering on the ear drums. Six of the seven hosts were busy entertaining their guests.
Kyoya was giving his guest false smiles and fakes laughs, lowered eye lids and eyes filled with fake passion- on the inside he was calculating how much more Haruhi owed to the Host Club and how long it would take her to either reach that or her 1,000 guest quota.
Hikaru and Kaoru where doing their "twincest" act that had the girls swooning.
Tamaki was being his regular flamboyant self, the ever charmer he was.
Haruhi was having pleasant conversations with five of her guests, smiling and nodding along, putting in a comment here and there.
Mori was handling his and Honey's guests by himself- so eight women to himself? Great. They were mostly conversing with themselves, although the two that sat on either side of him stayed quiet.
Where was Honey?
Well…. It was nap time for him, but he wasn't really sleeping. His eyes were half lidded, staring out at the buzzing room- there was something drumming on the edge of his senses that told him to stay alert, so he stayed awake.
His ears heard it first, the tiny creak the main door had when being opened slowly.
He sat up slowly, milk chocolate brown eyes studied the door as it opened slowly, and in peaked a raven head with bangs that were uneven and swept across her forehead. Bright blue eyes glanced around nervously, her perfectly manicured nails gripped the door lightly as white teeth scrapped against light pink bottom lips.
Honey instantly knew who it was, and she looked lost. The girl turned to leave in a swirl of buttercup yellow, but the call of the King made her stop and slowly turn around, fear etched into her eyes.
"Welcome, dear Princess! What brings a new guest such as yourself to our lovely Host Club?" Tamaki asked, leaning his face closer to the girls own. Her eyes widened as a blush stained her cheeks, she took a step back, waving her hands lightly in front of her form, gesturing quickly as her mouth was firmly shut.
"Tamaki." Honey said calmly, strolling up to the confused king and the still wildly gesturing girl. Both had his attention now and Honey folded his arms behind his back, his usual flower's that surrounded his person were gone as he spoke in all seriousness, his usual bubbly smile was replaced by a small smirk.
"This is Kagome Higurashi, she transferred here last week, she's very shy so she doesn't talk- instead using Japanese sign language." Honey said, nodding in Kagome's direction as he shooed the king away. He smiled up at the girl, his usual flower's floating around his head as the smile returned.
"Hello, Kago-chan! Why are you here? Did you get lost again?" He asked cutely, seeing the blush and nod, he smiled brighter, reaching for her hand. "Who or what are you looking for? I might be able to help you find it!" He cheered, he saw her smile sweetly and bring out the Belzeneef puppet.
Honey stared at the thing for a second, watching as Kagome's small and delicate hands ran across the stitching. He could faintly hear Tamaki scream in the back ground, but he didn't pay him any mind.
"You're looking for Nekozawa-kun?" Honey asked, seeing the girl nod, he tightened his hold on her hand and moved to the door, walking down the hall with the taller female in tow. "I'll help you find him!" Honey promised.
He heard Kagome faintly hum her appreciation and smiled when he felt the grip on his hand tighten slightly.
"Kago-chan, you're very pretty." Honey said absently, feeling the weight he was pulling along stop suddenly, he turned a confused look in her direction. Her eyes were wide and she was blushing brightly. "Well it's true, it's also interesting that you transferred into Takashi and my class- Sesshoumaru Tashio had a ward? Interesting, it's also interesting-his name. "Killing Perfection"? it's strange, but somehow sums him up completely." Honey was talking for the two of them as they walked along the winding halls.
Occasionally he could feel the grip on his hand tighten or slacken, but with the little snort of amusement she gave at the last statement, he smiled some more.
Suddenly they came to stop by the dark cloaked being they were looking for; he was walking in circles outside of the Dark Magic Club's classroom, mumbling curses as he talked aloud to himself. Honey cleared his throat loudly, catching the male's attention.
Nekozawa looked up, his eyes widened slightly at seeing the small senior, but his interest was piqued when he saw the girl that was holding Honey's hand tightly, she was blushing an ever lovely shade of scarlet.
"Kagome-chan believes she has something of yours." Honey said calmly, letting go of the girl's hand. She slowly walked towards the slightly hunched form of the other male. She bowed deeply, holding out Belzeneef to him.
"S-So s-s-sorry Umehito Nekozawa-k-kun…" Kagome struggled with the worlds, blushing brighter as tears sprang to the corner of her eyes. Nekozawa stared at the girl in amazement, taking the puppet offered and slowly sliding him back on his hand comfortably.
He moved Belzeneef's slightly stubby arms, turning him so Belzeneef could give Kagome's cheek a hug. She blushed brighter and laughed lightly, bringing one of her manicured nails to lightly scratch the puppet's cheek.
"I must thank you for your kindness, Miko." Nekozawa said slowly. Kagome stopped laughing and stared into his eyes in amazement, her own filled with curiosity. He smiled and offered her a black dice with silver paint.
"It might not be much, but a little birdie told me that you enjoyed games, dice can be used in many games… Mostly the game of chance, which I had also heard from the same birdie that you are very lucky." There was a double meaning to his words, and Kagome knew what they were, but took the offered dice graciously and smiled brightly at him, hugging him tightly.
Nekozawa hugged her back and let her go. Kagome waved as she took Honey's hand again, she smiled at Nekozawa before walking back to the Host Club with a spring in her step. Honey shook his head slightly.
"Kago-chan~" He whined, he got her attention on the stairs; he bounded up a few more so he was taller than her and leaned over her, causing her to grip the banister so she wouldn't fall. She looked at him curiously. "Where's my hug, Kago-chan~?" He pouted. Kagome smiled, opening her arms and scooping him up, he laughed and nuzzled her neck, inhaling her vanilla scented skin and Carmel scented hair.
In the Host Club:
"What! Engaged?! Kagome-sempai and Honey-sempai?!" Tamaki asked in despair, gripping some of his hair, Kyoya and Mori nodded, both shared similar looks of boredom.
"Correct." Mori offered, Tamaki gave him a pleading look, he only shrugged and left to sit back with some of his customers.
Kyoya sighed and fixed his glasses, showing Tamaki the screen on his computer.
"Of course, you idiot. Sesshoumaru Tashio is one of the most powerful men in the world, she was supposed to be my fiancé, but we didn't get along at the time we met and it caused more problems than good. Then when she met Honey…" Kyoya trailed off, leaving Tamaki to think of how it happened on his own- he couldn't.
"B-But! Then why doesn't she talk to anyone!" Tamaki wailed, Kyoya sighed, fighting the urge to fix his glasses to keep his fingers busy so he didn't strangle the idiot.
"She does talk, you baka. She doesn't like too, but she does. She learned sign language for her little brother, he's deaf." Kyoya sighed again, walking away from the Host King, who was in a state of shock.

In the late nineties, a 4-year-old girl disappeared from her home in a Boston suburb. Investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro worked overtime to locate and retrieve her. Now, a dozen years later, Amanda has vanished again and Kenzie and Gennaro are back on the trail. As they assess the case, they become convinced that the old case holds clues to the new one. Moonlight Mile is the explosive standalone sequel to Dennis Lehane's Gone, Baby, Gone (9780061336218), which received high marks from general readers and reviewers.

"[Lehane has] emerged from the whodunit ghetto as a broader and more substantial talent....When it comes to keeping readers exactly where he wants them, Mr. Lehane offers a bravura demonstration of how it's done."
—New York Times
Moonlight Mile is the first Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro suspense novel in more than a decade from the acclaimed, New York Times bestselling master of the new noir, Dennis Lehane. An explosive tale of vengeance and redemption—the brilliant sequel to Gone, Baby, Gone—Moonlight Mile returns Lehane's unforgettable and deeply human detective duo to the mean streets of blue collar Boston to investigate the second disappearance of Amanda McCready, now sixteen years old. After his remarkable success with Mystic River, Shutter Island, and The Given Day, the celebrated author whom the Washington Post praises as, "one of those brave new detective stylists who is not afraid of fooling around with the genre's traditions," returns to his roots—and the result, as always, is electrifying.
Editorial Reviews
A modern master of suspense revives the series that initially earned him a hard-core following.
Before Lehane attracted a lot more attention through the film adaptation of hisMystic River(2001) and then made a major literary leap withThe Given Day(2008), the author had built a loyal fan base through a series of detective novels featuring Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro. In this sequel toGone, Baby, Gone(1998), they are no longer partners as Boston private investigators but a married couple with a four-year-old daughter. Patrick freelances for a venerable firm that caters to the city's power elite, where he wrestles with the morality of his work but hopes for a full-time job. While Angie finishes grad school, they are all but broke. Twelve years earlier, they'd been racked by the case of a kidnapped four-year-old, Amanda McCready, when they rescued her from a couple who only wanted the best for her and returned her to her unfit mother. Now Amanda has disappeared again, and Patrick must decide whether to revisit a case that had caused his estrangement from Angie for over a year, and which now could threaten their domesticity and their daughter. As a return to earlier form for Lehane, the novel lacks the psychological depth and thematic ambition of his recent work, but its wise-cracking dialogue, page-turning (though convoluted) plot and protagonists who are all the more likable for their flaws extend the addictive spirit of the series. "When your daughter asks what you stand for, don't you want to be able to answer her?" Angie challenges her husband. To do so, he becomes enmeshed with the Russian Mob, shifting allegiances and a wise-beyond-her-years, 16-year-old Amanda, who rubs his nose in the aftereffects of his earlier involvement with her. By the breathless climax, it may appear that this book is the last in the series. But Lehane has fooled us before.

Twelve years ago, Boston PI Patrick Kenzie returned kidnapped four-year-old Amanda McCready to her abusive, addicted mother. When the now sixteen-year-old Amanda goes missing again, Patrick and his partner (now wife) Angie Gennaro are plunged back into this impossible case This case haunts them still because doing the "legal thing" isn't always the right thing to do. Amanda had been kidnapped twelve years ago by her concerned and loving Uncle Lionel and a few well meaning cops in order to give her a loving and nurturing home. Kenzie has battled his demons about this case before, in Dennis Lehane's brilliant Gone, Baby, Gone and Prayers for Rain. Patrick just wants his family to be safe and happy, so he's a haunted man until he can find Amanda again. These days the Kenzie-Gennaro household is struggling to get by. Patrick keeps the welfare of their young daughter Gabby in mind when he holds his nose and begins working for a large investigative corporation on a trial basis. However, he gets sidetracked from the corporate monsters when he is drawn back into the McCready case. Kenzie then finds himself forced to fight a pack of abhorrently brutal Russian mobsters that are somehow pulling the strings of those involved in Amanda's recent disappearance. I am a huge admirer of Dennis Lehane's books. I love his well drawn characters, his superbly crafted plot twists and his ever present mind games. This book delivers what we've come to expect from Lehane. Moonlight Mile is the "wrap up" book for these characters and Lehane provides enough backstory for new readers as well as those of us who were a little foggy around the edges about where we last left these people. I highly recommend Moonlight Mile and am sad that it appears that the McCready case is wrapped up. But then, I can always hope there's another story coming along sometime in the future. I just can't believe that we've seen the last of Patrick and Angie.and of course their trusty associate Bubba.
I was very excited to see Patrick and Angie return in a fifth book for Lehane, but found this one to lack the suspense and literary passion of the others. Too many modern references created the sense that this book won't stand the test of time - by 2011 it will be dated. That's unfortunate, as the others were great reads. If you like the first four, or Mystic River/Shutter Island, you'll read this one. My advice is to focus on the characters and how they've grown since we've last met - that is the highlight of the book.
I have been looking forward to a new Kenzie and Angie book for a few years now. This is it, but for some reason it make me sad that this well may be the final book in their continuing story. They are somewhat settled down..thank heavens not in suburbia, But still in the Dot. I am glad my favorite character is back. I just love Bubba. Although I liked the movie "Gone Baby Gone" I did not like that he was missing from the film. The plot is quite good even in the action isn't as fast paced, the characters are well defined. Especially the newer ones. I found the Russians to be quite interesting, if not brutal and even a tad comical. They make the Mafia look like choir boys. Finding Amanda McCready again is the plot. She's a teenager with so much baggage and she is strong and determined and if not a totally likable person she's unforgettable. I recommend this for all of the Kenzie and Angie fans out there. I sure hope this is not the end.....only a new start to new adventures.
Over a decade ago Boston private investigator Patrick Kenzie and his partner-lover Angela Gennaro disagreed with what to do with four years old kidnapping victim Amanda McCready, who they rescued. He followed the letter of the law and returned the child to her mom Helene; Angela disagreed vehemently as she morally argued the mother neglected her child putting her in harm's way. The child's doting uncle Lionel kidnapped his niece and put her in a good home. His Good Samaritan deed placed him in prison. Angela left Patrick (see Gone, Baby, Gone). Patrick and Angela reconciled, married and have a daughter. They have a tacit agreement never to mention Amanda McCready. A caller at three in the morning informing Patrick he owes her and he found her once so he can find her again before hanging up. The next day Beatrice McCready apologizes for the call but says she is desperate. She asks Patrick to find her missing sixteen years old niece Amanda. Initially he refuses the case as he has a job interview, but when Beatrice mentions Helene's sex offender boyfriend, having a daughter, Patrick vows this time he will do right by Amanda. This is an exhilarating sequel as Angela and Patrick are older and allegedly wiser yet both miss the excitement of the hard boiled case and long time pal Bubba still breaks heads. The story line is fast-paced from the moment Patrick's conscience gets to him and never slows down as he works his way through some mean streets and Russian thugs. The ending is super as realism prevails. Harriet Klausner
I've read all of Lehane's books and his Kenzie-Gennaro series are the best !
Lehane is always very good, usually excellent. This is one of the better Kenzie/Gennaro adventures.
Great sequel to Gone Baby Gone. A dozen years later, Amanda McCready disappears again. As in the previous Kenzie Gennaro books there are plenty of twists and turns to keep the reader glued to the page. Will there be a movie made from this book? Only time will tell.
