- Deodorants
At Wishing U Well, we believe that the products you use directly affect your overall health and happiness. While your deodorant choice may not seem like a major factor, it is just one part of a much larger picture. Most people would prefer to use an all-natural deodorant when possible, but the challenge is finding a natural deodorant that actually serves its intended purpose. That's where we come in. We proudly offer the best natural deodorants that keep you smelling fresh and clean without the chemicals and pollutants.
Why Natural Matters
Although you probably only apply deodorant once daily, it's still on your body nearly all of the time. Deodorant is often viewed as a minor detail, but it is something you are going to use every day for your entire life, so doesn't it just make sense to make healthy long-term decisions? We believe that even the minor details add up over time, and that is why we are passionate about providing quality products that do what they need to do without compromising your happiness and overall well-being.
Prevent Perspiration
Did you know that it is possible to block perspiration safely? Many people who perspire heavily depend on antiperspirants to keep them dry throughout the day, knowing that aluminum and other chemicals should be avoided. Our deodorant uses safe crystal minerals to effectively eliminate odors and perspiration without putting your body at risk. The best natural deodorants keep sweat at bay, and we are pleased to offer a solution for people who prefer to take the natural route whenever possible. Your comfort and well-being are our focus, and our deodorants embody that overall philosophy of health and happiness.
True Natural Deodorant
As part of our varied selection of all-natural products, we offer True Natural, a gentle deodorant that is formulated specifically for active people. Even if you normally perspire heavily throughout the day, True Natural deodorant keeps you dry and odor-free for a full 24 hours. Formulated without the use of alcohol, sulfates, synthetic dyes, or parabens, this cruelty-free, vegan deodorant is gentle on the skin without sacrificing the performance you demand. This all-natural deodorant is made from organic aloe vera, comfrey, and alum crystal, creating a powerful formula that safely surpasses other deodorants.

text: Mower is still under warranty, was purchased new from Carolina mower in Pineville NC. Mower has 27 horse Kolher engine and otherwise is a standard Scag Wildcat. Oil & filter changed every 100 hours, grease fittings greased per schedule. New rear tires ( the originals still had plenty of thread but one got a slash in the sidewall that couldn't be repaired so I replaced both rear tires with new ones ) Just replaced all the belts on the machine, kept the old belts for spares as they are still in decent condition. I have 5 sets of blades for the mower. Also have the original roll bar system that I removed the day I bought the mower. Mower has currently 755 hours run time on the hobbs, but bear in mind that even in the summer and especially in the winter I always start the mower and let it warm up at a fast idle on the first yard of the day while I edge and trim the yard, so there are many hours on the hobbs meter that are just engine idling time while it warms up in the mornings. Mower has no rust, no dents or dings, no oil leaks, no plugs in the tires, no burns or stains in the seat, etc... The mower would still pass for new with one exception, I did manage to get a small tear in the top of the seat, which I repaired with a vinyl repair kit and is not really noticable unless you really look for it. The guys at Carolina Mower always tell me that no one else they deal with takes better care of their mowers than me. Also included with the mower if you want it, is a custom made steel mount for holding a 16 gallon sprayer tank. Asking 6000$ or best offer. New this mower retails for just under 10 grand. 704-756-4600 if you would like to call me, thanks Ron Pictures can be found in this thread http://www.lawnsite.com/showthread.php?t=161324

Former University of Louisiana at Lafayette softball player Natalie Fernandez on Wednesday was named as one of two athletes to represent the Sun Belt Conference in the competition to become the 2014 NCAA Woman of the Year.
"This is a great honor to be nominated for," Fernandez said. "But it's not just my award. It's just as much the UL softball team's award; it's to all my professors and the athletic staff. I feel like it's not just awarded to me, it's awarded to everyone that's helped me get to this point."
The NCAA established the award in 1991 as a way of recognizing its graduating female student-athletes who displayed excellence not only in sports but also in the classroom, the community and as leaders. Fernandez is one of 130 athletes up for the honor; that list has been trimmed from 446 original nominees.
"Natalie epitomizes pursuing excellence both in the classroom and on the field," softball coach Michael Lotief said in a release. "With Natalie, it was not only just about winning but it was also about winning the right way. She set the example for our team last year with hard work and getting better day by day and by having a positive, confident attitude no matter the outcome."
Fernandez, a Live Oak High product who became a four-year starter for the Cajuns, led the team with a .419 batting average last season as UL-Lafayette made a push to the Women's College World Series. Fernandez never hit worse than .345 in a single season.
But it wasn't her career athletic exploits that had her up for the honor, at least not entirely.
She was named the inaugural Female Athlete of the Year at UL-Lafayette for her contributions to the university and in the community. In addition to being president of the UL-Lafayette Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, the governing body for student athletes, she volunteered her time with Girl Scouts of America and the children's ward at local hospitals and contributed to the "Reading in Red" program.
"Natalie was a true leader who spent many hours influencing her teammates to believe in our goals and also holding them accountable to our standard," Lotief said.
Each NCAA member school annually selects a representative to compete for the honor. Each conference then selects up to two candidates.
The NCAA will release a list of the top 30 candidates — 10 from each division — in early September. That list will be trimmed to nine — three from each division — by late September. The winner will be announced Oct. 19.
Since Fernandez graduated, she moved closer to her roots and recently was named the head coach for Oak Forest Academy in Amite. Fernandez said she was always on the fence between teaching and coaching or working in occupational therapy during her college years, but the situation fell into her lap.
"It's one of those things that I have to try out and see where I'm at right now," Fernandez said. "It's a great opportunity for me to figure out if this is what I want to do, and it's a great school and a great program. I'm excited."

Le = KL
L = Actual length of the column between its supports
K = Constant value dependent on the end fixity of the column as following.
- A pinned-end column is guided so that the end of the column cannot sway from side to side, but it can rotate with no resistance at the end.
- A fixed-end column is held against rotation at the support.
The higher constant value of K as shown as the "practical values" in the above table is recommended because in reality it is particularly difficult to achieve a true fixed-end column because of lacking of rigidity of the support.
The slenderness ratio is the ratio of the effective length of the column to the least radius of gyration.
Slenderness ratio = Le/r_min = KL/r_min
The slenderness ratio will be used to select the method of performing the analysis of straight, centrally loaded columns. Two methods will be presented in the next post.
- The Euler formula for long, slender columns
- The J. B. Johnson formula for short columns

"He has all of the tools to be a good one," said Vandebilt Catholic head coach Brad Villavaso. "He doesn't really have blazing speed but he runs really good routes and he has great hands. He knows how to get open. There are a lot of great technicians that aren't really fast. We don't throw it a bunch but when we do we throw it to him."
Gordon has drawn comparisons to current LSU tight end Korey Hebert but Villavaso does not expect him to end up at Hebert's position.
"Some of the coaches have mentioned filling him out to make him a tight end but I don't see it," Villavaso told Tiger Rag. "He does a little bit of tight end stuff for us because of the formations we get into but to me he is a wide receiver."
Football is not Gordon's only passion, as he spends his off-season playing basketball and running track. That leaves little time for him to hit the weights with his gridiron teammates, so he has some work to catch up on once he gets in a college strength program.
"I think he needs to get a little bigger," Villavaso said. "You know, 205 pounds is not much when you are 6-6. He definitely needs to get stronger but he spends so much time in other sports so he's not always in the weight room. He spends most of the year in a maintenance program rather than a get-strong program."
LSU has always been Gordon's favorite school but he is not ruling out other possibilities concerning his future.
"His No. 1 school is LSU," said Villavaso. "He is open to other schools but if he had his choice he would go to LSU. I don't know yet if he is an SEC player but he does have everyone looking at him. I think he is a legit prospect. I don't know how many SEC defensive backs he will outrun but he will keep them in a back pedal."
Sonny's View: Gordon reminds me a lot of Korey Hebert when he was heading into his senior year at Teurlings Catholic-Lafayette (

Trimmed & Frozen French Green Beans
November 27, 2012 - Fearlessly Archived - Still a fun read, price & availability may have changed.
Imported from France, these extra fine Haricots Verts are picked while young, so they are delicately sweet with a crisp snap. Washed, trimmed and individually quick frozen within hours of being harvested, their fresh flavor is remarkable. And they are ready to cook, right out of the package. That's a good deal, especially at $1.99 for a 24 ounce package.

[quote:Luisport:MV8xNDk0NTg4XzM1MDEyNDA0XzhBQUUyRUEz] Anxieties rise as surge of tremors makes Navidad the shakiest town in Chile Posted on December 13, 2012 December 13, 2012 – NAVIDAD, Chile — One jolt hit in the middle of the night. Another caught fishermen at a nearby beach. Then the ground shook at supper. And then again, and again: More than 170 tremors were felt in Navidad in just five weeks. The strongest struck during a funeral, and sent panicked mourners fleeing into the street. Navidad, a coastal farming town of 5,500 people, has become one of the shakiest spots in one of the world's shakiest countries. And seismologists can't say whether these were aftershocks from Chile's devastating quake two years ago, or warnings of another huge disaster to come. Navidenos, though, have learned to take quakes in stride. In this town whose name means Christmas, some decorate Christmas trees with quakes in mind, wiring ornaments to the branches or taking extra efforts to secure the base. Restaurant owners nail wood railings panels to their shelves to keep glasses and liquor from crashing down. Some now use canned beer, shunning bottles as too risky. Children at public schools practice drills every day and everyone seems to have a quake bag with flashlights and food ready. "We were born, grew up and were raised with earthquakes," acting Mayor Rodrigo Soto said. "It seems like the world for the first time has discovered Navidad. Everyone asks us if we're scared and all we can say is that we need to be prepared." Still, no amount of preparation can avoid that panicky feeling when the ground really rumbles. There's no way to know at that moment whether the shaking will pass quickly, or become frighteningly worse. While the ground shook under the pews at the funeral, the faces of the mourners turned pale like the dead. Despite appeals for calm, the church swayed so much that people panicked and ran outside. "People were terrorized," Carolina Jeria, recalling that 5.9-magnitude quake on Nov. 21. "In a moment like that, you lose control. We're very worried about the quakes because the big one in 2010 caught us unprepared." Soto says the town still has an inadequate tsunami alert system — a siren that sounds like a car alarm and lacks the volume needed to reach all the townspeople. But after so many tremors, he says Navidenos know in their bones when to run. They know they'll barely feel a magnitude-2, but a magnitude-7 will knock them off their feet and that's a sign to scramble for high ground in case there's a tsunami. Aside from the quakes, life is slow in Navidad. Many farmers still use oxen to plow their land, while others cater to tourists who come for the Pacific beaches from Chile's capital of Santiago, 170 kilometers (100 miles) northeast of town. Yet people are often on edge. –AP/WP http://theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com/ [/quote]

I will be posting the signals I see on ELF here. I will post with intensity of each signal seen on the ELF range. I will post intensity using the Seismic scale from 1 to 10 Magnitudes. Be aware that once the signal comes in on ELF it can take from 1 hour and 40 minutes to 2 hours and 30 minutes for the quake to be seen on USGS sites. These signals come in on ELF about 1 1/2 to 2 hours before they actually impact what ever region their epicenters are. Then it takes USGS sites about 30 minutes to display.
The signals I pay attention to are in the 1 Hz to 10 Hz frequencies. Those are almost always Seismic.
I will be doing this when I am in front of my computer, not all the time so be aware that I will not be able to catch them all.
These ELF signals give approximately a 2 hour window to work and figure out epicenter. That is another task I will take on in the future. It is the hardest part of Earthquake prediction.
This is an addition I added to a thread about Elenin;
Be weary next 3 hours, have plan prepared for some possible shaking. Getting some unusual readings on ELF. Not sure if it will impact Japan region but better to be safe than sorry. Keep your mind focused and aware that Japan might be getting some seismic activity headed that way. This one might be 5+ if I am not mistaken. No panic just keep your senses on alert status.
The unusual activity I heard were 18 very intense thumps. In the 1Hz to 10Hz frequency. Could be seismic.
Then these quakes occurred;

Cocoon has an o.a.cocoon.Environment package to act as an abstraction of the underlying environment. o.a.cocoon.Main is our commandline starter, that sets up the comandline environment, creates Cocoon.java, initializes it and starts crawling by calling the process() method on Cocoon.. Cocoon itself is the core of Cocoon, and can be used as you say. But since to set up Cocoon correctly you have to perform some steps that are not so easy to remember, very recently we have been thinking of creating a CocoonBean.java that would make the embedded usage in Cocoon easier. Basially what you need is this Bean; you can do it quite easily from Main.java, and it would be well accepted as a contribution to Cocoon :-D <hint hint - nudge nudge> ;-) If you have /any/ question regarding this, feel free to ask :-) -- Nicola Ken Barozzi firstname.lastname@example.com - verba volant, scripta manent - (discussions get forgotten, just code remains) --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, email: email@example.com

[The following post is contributed by Yogesh Chande, who is a Consultant with Economic Laws Practice, Advocates & Solicitors. Views of the author are personal]
In an interesting order passed on February 20, 2014, the whole time member of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has refused the withdrawal of an open offer made by the acquirers under the erstwhile SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 1997 (Regulations).
A few facts worth mentioning:
1. The target company is listed and is in the business of stock broking registered with SEBI, and member of OTCEI and Bhuvaneshvar Stock Exchange.
2. The acquirer [PRPL] entered into a business transfer agreement (BTA) with the target company, wherein the target company agreed to issue shares representing around 80% of its expanded capital to the acquirer, for acquiring the apparel and accessories business under the brand names "Weekender", "Weekender Kids" and "Toon world" and certain brands of Walt Disney and Warner Bros, from the acquirer.
Comment: At this juncture, it should be noted that, being a stock broker and member of the recognised stock exchanges, the target company was prohibited and disqualified from engaging in the proposed business [acquisition of the apparel and accessories business] in terms of the requirements of Securities Contracts (Regulation) Rules, 1957. The target company, upon realising this much later after the open offer, sought cancellation of the registration as a stock broker on 17 October 2012.
3. Additionally, two other acquirers acquired around 6% of the expanded capital of the target company from the promoters in the market.
4. There were two persons acting in concert [holding around 2%] with the aforesaid acquirers.
5. The aforesaid acquisition of around 88% triggered an open offer and the open offer was accordingly made on 20 February 2011.
6. In the meanwhile, SEBI was intimated that, on 8 October 2012 the Hon'ble High Court of Karnataka, had passed an order for winding up of PRPL, the lead acquirer and the executant party to the BTA.
7. In relation to the aforesaid development [winding up], upon various interaction between SEBI and the merchant banker, SEBI, vide letter dated 25 January 2013, informed the Merchant Banker that the acquirers and the persons acting in concert (PACs) are jointly and severally liable to complete the open offer. In light thereof, notwithstanding any unforeseen circumstances affecting any one of the acquirers, the rest of the acquirers and the PACs are required to proceed with the open offer within the prescribed time lines. Accordingly, SEBI advised the Merchant Banker to take necessary steps to immediately proceed with the open offer and submit the revised letter of offer latest by 31 January 2013, failing which, they shall be liable for action in terms of the provisions of the Regulations and the SEBI Act, 1992.
Issuance of Show Cause Notice by SEBI
Since, the acquirers and the PACs did not take any steps to proceed with the open offer despite clear advice of SEBI, SEBI issued a combined Show Cause Notice to all the acquirers and PACs (Noticees) calling upon them to show cause as to why suitable directions under sections 11 and 11B of the SEBI Act, regulations 44 and 45 of the Regulations, read with regulations 32 and 35 of the Takeover Regulations, 2011 should not be issued.
Following were the arguments for not making an open offer and in favour of withdrawing the open offer
1. All the property and effects of PRPL are deemed to vest with the Court and, thereafter, with the Official Liquidator appointed in respect of PRPL. The powers of the existing directors of PRPL ceased and all powers pertaining to the affairs of the PRPL shall be exercised by the Official Liquidator. PRPL was incapable of performing its obligations under the BTA entered into with the target company.
2. The winding up order has adversely affected the ability of the acquirers and PACs to comply with the open offer.
3. The current financial position of the other two acquirers had deteriorated, and hence they were not in a position to complete the open offer.
4. The aforesaid brand names have not been transferred due to the liquidation of PRPL, the target company has been deprived of the benefit which it was to derive out of the said BTA. This in turn has materially altered the transaction and has taken away the incentive of acquiring further shares in the target company.
5. There is no value in investing in the target company by acquiring its shares as the same had practically become a shell company without any worthwhile business or future business plans.
Comment: The target company had become a shell company, because it was not able to acquire the business of the acquirer as per the BTA, and it had also made a request for surrendering its existing business prior to the acquisition i.e. registration as a stock broker.
6. Because of the declining market conditions, the financial condition of the other two acquirers deteriorated substantially and the financial incapacity to purchase the shares of the target company, albeit they were confident of performing their financial obligations under the open offer, at the time of making the public announcement.
7. Compulsion to make an open offer, will be detrimental to their financial stability thereby affecting their ability to manage the affairs of the target company post acquisition which will consequently affect the shareholders of the target company.
8. Under regulation 23(1)(c) of the Takeover Regulations, 2011, an open offer can be withdrawn if any condition stipulated in the agreement for acquisition attracting the obligation is not met for reasons outside the control of the acquirer and such agreement has been rescinded, subject to such conditions having been disclosed in the detailed public statement. Although the regulation has been inserted in the [new] Takeover Regulations, 2011, the same is very relevant in the present case as the whole purpose of acquisition has been defeated.
9. PRPL cannot take part in the open offer, as it cannot transfer the assets to the target company for the reason that its assets are now in possession of the Official Liquidator pursuant to the winding up order.
10. There were certain issues surrounding due diligence in relation to the proposed acquisition resulting in non-compliance with certain securities laws, which have also been dealt by SEBI in detail in the order.
SEBI's direction to complete the open offer along with interest
After granting an opportunity of being heard and after hearing all concerned, SEBI directed the Noticees to complete the open offer and also directed them to pay alongwith the consideration amount, interest at the rate of 10% per annum from 8 May 2011 to the date of payment of consideration, to the shareholders who were holding shares in the target company as on the date of trigger i.e. 4 February 2011 and whose shares have been accepted in the open offer, after adjustment of dividend paid, if any to them by the target company.
Ordinarily, once an open offer is made, its inexorable conclusion ought to be the completion of the open offer. One of the lessons from this order of SEBI decision, would be for transaction advisors to structure the acquisition agreement and the open offer documents (public announcement, detailed public statement and letter of offer) such that, they protect the acquirer appropriately through material adverse change (MAC) clauses and other similar conditional arrangements, and if possible, to also envisage an eventuality or a contingency, of the nature mentioned above, which could possibly enable the acquirer to withdraw an open offer.

The Currency Club expands its Travel Money Services to Business Travellers
Gone are the days of business travel on unlimited expense accounts and the freedom to fly in the best seats and stay at the best hotels.
Online currency exchange specialists The Currency Club estimates that around 60% of business travellers from the UK take responsibility for arranging their own travel money when planning a business trip, often using a Bureau du Change at the departure airport, irrespective of the exchange rate being offered. The cash is then claimed back on expenses upon returning to the office. There is also a tendency to use a personal debit or credit card while on an overseas business trip in much the same way as it would be used for last minute or unexpected costs on holiday, with a reimbursement request being filed at a later date.
Meera Thakkar, one of the co-founders of The Currency Club says "Currency exchange costs can make up as much as ten percent of all business travel expenses when airport commission rates, overseas card charges and poor exchange rates are considered. There is little incentive for an employee to arrange their travel money in advance or to shop around for the best currency exchange rates as they expect to be reimbursed from office funds at the end of the trip. However, as an office manager or company director, implementing a foreign exchange policy for all business trips can amount to significant savings."
In many cases, a business trip will be arranged at the last minute, making an airport exchange booth seem like the only option. In reality, it's just as quick to log on and purchase travel money online. It's also significantly cheaper in the long term.
The Currency Club estimates that based on 10 people travelling with a budget of £500 per month, ordering US Dollars, the company can make savings per annum of anywhere between $6,000-$10,000 simply by purchasing foreign exchange online through The Currency Club, rather than buying at the airport or using credit cards and local ATMs.
Business today is global, with everyone from fashion buyers to manufacturers, service providers to investors regularly communicating with, purchasing from or selling to non-UK third parties. Leaving currency exchange to the last minute is the worst option for any business, be it a small, medium or large sized company.
As an online company, The Currency Club offers the perfect solution with dynamic rather than fixed exchange rates that provide the best possible rate of exchange throughout the day. Better than the airports, better than the high street and far more efficient than queuing up at an ATM, using The Currency Club definitely saves travellers money.
From a convenience viewpoint, The Currency Club has begun trialling same day deliveries of foreign currency to business clients in the London area. Miss Thakkar says, "As a London-based firm, we're ideally positioned to help businesses requiring travel currency the same day. The service has been welcomed and very well received. Companies have found it more cost-effective and convenient for their travelling employees."

Similar to this image (I am using my google drive account)
Hope this help. Inform us if you have more question.
Two questions:
(a) Will this only be possible if the form has been created using
Googledrive or otherwise also. This question is due to the fact I do not
see integrated drive in my G Drive. Also, when trying to connect with
jotform using Drive, it says Jotform is down due to server maintenance etc.
This has been happening all through weekend.
(b) We are facing problem of some people not being able to upload

Chapter 1 – The Beginning Edit
The Stygian galley ploughed its way through the rough and stormy night seas west of Argos. The slaves toiled below deck to the beat of the Stygian drummer as their muscles strained and whips lashed at their backs. A yell from above was sounded as rain continued to pelt against the deck; the boats scout had sounded a warning as a large Aquilonian military vessel surged towards the slave powered galley. Hearing the cry, whispers spread out among the slaves as those who knew the Stygian language spread the word. Chained to their seats the slaves quickly agreed and pushed their oars backwards slowing the medium sized boat to a crawl. Screaming the Stygian slavers whipped mercilessly at the backs of the slaves as another cry was heard from above. Now at desperation the slave master ran between the slaves kicking and punching them at random. Thick beads of sweat dripped across he brow as he glanced back out towards the ocean only to see the Aquilonian War vessel right on their stern. The slave master turned and again started screaming obscenities at the slaves, his eyes wide with fear. Grabbing the hilt of his sword he drew a long curved blade. Grasping the closest slave by the arm, an old Aquilonian man. Screaming, the slaver held his sword aloft. Trying to pull his arm away but unable due to his iron shackles the old man close his eyes and prayed to Mitra for his blessing.
Shrieking the slaver slung his sword down at the mans arm, the man yelling for mercy, then a thunderous blow as a cannon blast shot through the Stygian galley, wood cracking and sending splinters flying. Thrown backwards, sword still in hand, the slave master clambered to his feet, cursing in the Stygian language as he grabbed the elderly slave by the jaw. A roar sounded as a large slave dove at the Stygian slaver driving him into the ground. His muscles glistening with sweat and blood as he pummeled the slaver into the deck. A broken chain hung from his shackled wrist as it bled from numerous large splinters. Grabbing the slavers sword from its masters crumpled body the large warrior turned and flung it into the closest slaver, piercing the Stygian's chest and killing him instantly. Grabbing a large iron key from the deceased guard, the slaves' newfound hero fought his way past several guards to the rusted main lock holding the slaves to their benches. Brawling with bloody knuckles a slaver cracked his whip at the warrior who caught the studded leather rope and forcefully dragged its owner of his feet right into the warriors opposing fist, shattering his jaw. As the large metal lock was opened the clicking of chains sounded as the joyous slaves dragged themselves free of their seats and hurled themselves on the few fleeing Stygian slavers still on board.
Cheering and hoisting their hero aloft they carried him up to the main deck but their celebration was short lived. Another deafening blast was heard as the Aquilonian warship continued to fire upon the Stygian galley. A crucial blow had been dealt to the ship as large amounts of water now poured into the boat. Fleeing for their lives the slaves dived over board, as the hero tried to signal to the Aquilonian boat to cease-fire. Realising his efforts was meaningless he grabbed a large piece of the broken ships bow preparing to jump overboard. As he approached the side his ankle was grasped and he slipped and hit the floor hard. Looking backwards at his assailant it was the bloodied slave master staring back at him with a wicked and toothless grin. Kicking out at the slavers head the hero fought his way free and lifting the large piece of boat wood above his head, he ended the life of the slaver. Another sickening blow was dealt to the ship as a large iron cannon ball tore through the deck only a meter away from the large warrior. Getting thrown back by the force of the blast his head cracked into ships mast, blood trickled down the back of his neck mixing with his sweat. Grasping at the ships deck the warrior dragged himself towards the ships edge, slipping, his eyes squinted shut from the heavy rain lashing at his face he pulled himself free of the ship and landed with a splash in the cold waters below.
Chapter 2 - Briana Edit
The warrior awoke in a daze, waves lapping at his ankles and sand on his face. He gingerly rolled over and sat up, grimacing as the early morning sun shone brightly in his eyes. "Where the hell am I?" he thought to himself as he turned seeing a vast jungle and already feeling the increasing heat of the day. Slowly pulling himself up the hero took stock of his surroundings. A large bay was at his feet as the sun glistened of the pristine water. Further out he could see the remains of ship wreckages probably some of the Stygian slave galley he was on. His head was still pounding as he felt the back of his head and his fingers found a large gash running down towards his neck. Dressed only in his slave's loincloth the warrior started walking along the beach, hopefully he'd find some other survivors he thought. The sand was coarse and shells broke under his callous feet as he crunched his way along the beach seeing many strange fish in the blue waters and even a few crocodiles or possibly alligators. Finding a large piece of a broken oar, he carried the piece of wood over his shoulder like a club.
The sun rose in the sky and soon it was past midday and no sign of any other survivors, angered at his fruitless search the warrior decided to take a break from the blistering sun as he wandered up the beach into the shade of the jungle trees. Just as he did so he heard the crack of a whip and the sound of hoofs plodding along the beach. The warrior dashed into the jungle and peered behind a large fallen tree log as saw several Stygian riders gallop into sight racing alone the beach. As the men came closer to the warrior he noticed they were carrying an array of scimitars and strange curved spears, then to his shock he noticed they all had the symbol of the slavers across their blackened leather armour. The riders then stopped as the warrior realised they had been tracking his footsteps in the sand and had noticed the footsteps leading off into the jungle. Frustrated by his carelessness the warrior quickly grabbed the damp mud from below the fallen tree he smeared it over his body covering himself. Then rolling across the ground attaching leaves and sticks to the mud he dragged himself against the large fallen tree.
He heard the sound of the riders unmounting from their horses as they moved into the jungle hacking and swinging their scimitars at the undergrowth of the jungle. Staying perfectly still the warrior soon noticed on slaver pass mere meters away from his hiding place as the slavers boots squelched in the mud and his sword hacked and got caught in some vines. They there was a sudden yell from one of the slavers and they all started to quickly move towards the fallen tree where the hero was lying. His heart quicken as he tried to remain motionless. The slavers continued to approach his hiding place one was only a few meters away, the warrior's hands clenching ready to fight or to run. One leapt at the log, it was too late he was unarmed and would not of been able to pull himself up out of the damp mud beneath the log quickly enough. The sound of wood straining was heard as with a crunch the slaver had landed on the log pushing in down onto the warrior but then the slaver continued and leapt of the log. Now confused the warrior peered to where the slaver was running he saw a young woman, with long brown hair fleeing. The chasing slaver held his scimitar in an attack position readying the blow he would soon deal to the woman. The warriors rage was back as was his courage and he put his back to the ground and grasped the bottom of the log. As the second slaver went to jump he pushed with all his might and lifted the log upwards, smashing into the knees of the slaver sending him headfirst into the mud and undergrowth of the jungle floor. Leaping forward with incredible speed and agility the warrior was upon the slave; pulling a dagger from the slavers belt he stabbed it into the slavers neck. Pulling the slaver over he ripped the slaver's scimitar free of its sheath and spinning thrust it into the gut of an approaching slaver who had a spear held aloft to strike at the warriors unguarded back. Holding the scimitar in his left hand, the warrior grasped the slavers spear and raced through the undergrowth. Rage and adrenaline surged through the hero's body as he quickly closed in on the first slaver who had just captured the girl grasping her wrist. The girl turning forcefully kicked the slaver and caught him right in the stomach making him cough loudly and bend over, badly winded. Freeing herself of his grip she started to run again making it to the beach. Looking backwards at the slaver, now enraged at being assaulted, she didn't see a large vine as it caught her ankle sending her tumbling to the ground. Hurt, she staggered to her feet, falling back to the ground as she tried to place pressure on he injured foot. She had made it out of the jungle and crawled through the sand but she soon felt a hard stomp to her back, pushing her into the sand. The angry slaver stood above her with his large muddy boot on his back. He knelt down next to her head, grasping her long brown hair in his hand and then pushing her head back down into the coarse sand. Holding her head down he then pulled her back up, she coughed and spat out the sandy dirt at the slaver missing and landing on his boot. Slowly whispering something to her in Stygian the slaver drew a dagger from his belt but as he went to end the young woman's life his body jerked forward, his eyes widened as he looked down to see the spear tip of one of his fellow slavers, piercing through his chest. The slavers head twitched then collapsed to the ground on top of the young woman.
The woman pushing the dead Stygian aside looked up and at the edge of the clearing stood the warrior, muscled still tensed and glistening with sweat, his long brown hair slightly waving in the breeze as his mighty chest heaved up and down. The sun penetrating the thick jungle trees seemed to halo the warrior as the woman for a second thought maybe this was some god or spirit of the jungle. This thought however stopped as the warrior grinned and loudly yelled "Hey! Just thought you needed some help, are you alright?" The young woman couldn't help herself from laughing as she replied, "Yes, I'm fine thanks to you." The warrior slowly staggered over to the woman realizing he hadn't had any real rest or food for many days now but as he stepped forward into the sand the woman looked up and yelled a warning but it was too late. A huge dark skinned Stygian man thundered out of the jungle and sent a crushing blow to the back of the warrior knocking him unconscious.
Chapter 3 – The Arena Edit
The hustling busy street in the pirate city of Tortage soon woke up the warrior. Merchants haggling their goods, rowdy civilians and the rattle of the slave cart jolted the warrior to his senses. Attempting to rub his face he soon noticed his hands where again shackled above his head against the steel cage around the cart. The slave cart was a simple caravan drawn by 2 horses and guarded by several slavers but instead of a simple tarp there was a crude steel cage surrounding the cart. Looking around he soon noticed the brown haired woman from the beach sitting beside him. "Oh your finally awake…" she started "I uh… was afraid that the blow to your head might have killed you." Remembering the events on the beach the warrior suddenly noticed that there was no pain where he had to struck to the back of his head. As if reading his mind the brown haired woman added "I healed you head wound… uh.. I learnt some techniques from my mother back in my village, about magical remedies and such" The young woman smiled and shyly turned away as if something had drawn her attention. Smiling the warrior spoke "Thank you, may I ask your name?" Looking back at the warrior the young woman spoke confidently "Its Briana and yours?" The warrior now looking away opened his lips to begin speaking then stopped "Uh well… you can just call me Tullius" said the warrior grinning. "Ok Tullius it is!" Briana spoke merrily. The cart shortly jolted to a stop outside a large tavern on the outskirts of Tortage. "Where are we?" Tullius enquired to Briana, "We're in Tortage, a city of thieves and murderers" Briana responded with a frown. As the cart stopped one of the guards unbolted the cage and one at a time the slaves were led out of the cart and taken around the side of the tavern through a back door. Tullius and Briana were the last two slaves to be taken out, Briana being taken by the one guard and Tullius with 4 guards with their weapons pressed to his back.
As Tullius was marched into the dark tavern he saw that they had been moved into a badly lit series of cells and at the end of the room a large iron bound door. Tullius then was forced roughly into a small cell with 3 other male slaves. The floor was made of slimy stone blocks with only some old damp hay in the corner for the 4 slaves to share. Tullius grasped the strong iron bars on the cells door and shook them violently. Looking out the cell door Tullius yelled out "Briana are you there? Are you ok?" Ever the optimist Briana yelled back "Yes, I'm in the cell next to yours and I'm getting to know some lovely ladies over here." Laughing quietly Tullius turned around and introduced himself to his cellmates. After a short inquiry he found that the tavern was in fact just the front of a large gladiators arena where the slaves were sent up to fight against each other or fierce beasts and vicious monsters. A large and heavily scarred gladiator who had remained silent stood up; he was at least 7 feet tall and was rippled with muscles and had the darkish skin of a Cimmerian. Staring intently at Tullius, who stared right back at the large Cimmerian, he spoke "I have been here for nearly five years now… the men who run this place are dogs which I intend to kill, If you ever intend to cross me or betray your fellow gladiators in here you will regret it." Smiling right in the face of the stern Cimmerian, Tullius started "My name is Tullius, I've spent the last 2 months as a slave, I led a rebellion on a stygian slave galley, I fought the same dirty slavers that hold us here with my bare fists and when I had the opportunity to run away I helped out a woman that needed protecting. As long as I am here I will help you and ever other slave in this place, now can I trust you?" Tullius grinned and the large Cimmerian broke into raucous laughter. In his deep voice he spoke "I am Cullen and tonight we will escape this pit of filth!"
Cullen explained the plan to Tullius that tonight there was going to be a great festival in Tortage, A celebration to the Red Hands leader Strom's day of birth. That night bolstered by the significantly minor shipment of slaves, to the credit of the Aquilonian warship, there was going to be a great show for Strom's enjoyment in a makeshift arena in the middle of the town. In the finale of the show all the slaves would be sent against a great monster and if their plan worked they would use their combined force to escape the city and the guards. Night approached slowly as the slaves were fed 2 meals of slop to get their energy up as the slavers hoped to get Strom's attention and recognition. As the call was sent out to prepare the slaves to be moved to the arena makeshift weapons were passed out between the slaves, short knives, sharpened stakes, the slaves prepared for the battle for their lives.
Guards soon unlocked the doors and moved to transport the slaves. Tullius was shackled behind Cullen and in front of Briana to his delight. Whispering back to the brown haired woman, he told her to stay close to him and that he would protect her for as long as he could. They moved through the dark streets in single-file around 30 slaves and 10 guards. The streets were alight with laughter and music, people drinking and fighting, practically riotous behaviour for anywhere but the pirate city of Tortage. Soon they approached the arena and saw Strom sitting aloft on a platform with several slave maidens dancing around him. Calling out to the slavers "Took your time, bastards! Entertain me!" The slaves were pushed into small cages along the sides of the arena where when it was their turn their door to the arena would open and the slaves would be forced out to confront whatever was sent out against them. First several tigers and crocodiles were unleashed as a few slaves attempted to fight them off. The fight was short lived and the slaves lay slain on the arena floor. Laughing from his stand Strom cried out for more slave blood. Soon several more slaves fell to a different array of beasts and armed men. Then Tullius, Cullen and Briana's door was opened and the guards' spears forced them into the arena. The three stood together as they awaited their opponents.
Three huge men strode out to meet them, covered in heavy plate and chain armour and carrying large swords. Cullen grinned to the others "We've got lucky, we just need to take their weapons." Tullius prepared himself, as Briana looked unsure at the two warriors. Tullius noticing this passed Briana the knife he was given back in the tavern jail, smiling he said he wouldn't need it. The crowd now massing at the arena cheered and cried for the death of the three slaves. Soon the armoured men charged at the slaves one focusing on each of the slaves. Roaring Cullen charged back at his opponent catching the gladiator off guard and grasping the gladiator's sword hand and stabbing at his unguarded throat with a metal spike he had concealed. Coughing up blood the gladiator fell to the ground dead. Shocked the crowd fell silent and the other two gladiators paused noticing the lightning strike from Cullen. Noticing an opportunity Tullius charged, barrelling into a gladiator knocking him to the ground. Pinning the gladiator down with his knees pressed into the gladiators' chest, he wrestled the sword out of his hand and plunged it into the gladiator's side. Briana was in trouble though, her opponent closing in on her. She looked back as she approached the arenas wall, which was covered in sharpened wooden spikes. Briana could see a wicked grin from behind the gladiator's helm as he approached the woman. Deciding she had to fight the brown haired woman charged at the gladiator with her knife aimed at the gladiator's chest. Laughing the gladiator casually swung his sword sending it clanging into Briana's dagger knocking it out of her hand and her to the ground. The gladiator then plunged his sword down at Briana but she rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding the strike. As the gladiator's sword plunged into the sandy soil, Briana kicked out strongly at the gladiator's hand disarming him inturn. Disregarding his sword the gladiator jumped on top of Briana, grabbing her neck with both his hands he started strangling her as the crowd roared. Grabbing at her side she felt the blade of the dagger Tullius had given her. Grasping it by the handle she drove it in the side of the gladiators neck just as Cullen and Tullius has dashed over to help her driving their stolen gladiator swords into the remaining gladiators back.
The crowd had gone ecstatic as the three slaves rolled the last dead gladiator aside arose to see Strom still laughing uproariously. The slavers however were furious that they were being made a mockery by their own slaves. Forcing the remaining slaves into the arena with the guards entering to make sure they didn't revolt, a loud horn blast sounded, as it was time for the finale. The rumbling of a carts wheels were heard as the gladiators doors were flung open and several dark robed figures walked out into the arena. Then a large sarcophagus was wheeled into the arena and placed on the arena floor. Then at once the robed figures started chanting in an ancient unknown language lifting their hands into the air. A circled of red appeared around the base of the sarcophagus as runes skittered along the circle. A darker red glow emanated from the coffin as the chanting increased in pace and the necromancers chanted louder and louder. Then they suddenly stopped and walked briskly out of the arena. The runes stopped and fell towards the sarcophagus and the intense red glow blinded onlookers. For the first time that night Strom was speechless as he looked on at the spectacle. The slaver guards now unsure of their own doing backed away from the sarcophagus as the light suddenly stopped and the runes came into place and matched the etched writing on the coffins lid. Then it happened. An ear-piercing shriek came forth from the coffin and everyone grasped his or her ears to block the horrific noise. Then with a crash a ghoulish craw punched its way through the sealed sarcophagus lid. The wooden cover shattering as the blotched purple claw ripped through the timber. The slaves, mostly frozen by fear, stood transfixed by the horrible undead abomination, which pulled itself free of its coffin and again shrieked out at its onlookers.
The creature was not human not beast, its body was ravaged and covered with ancient yellowed bandages, its face had no eyes or noise merely bleeding holes where they were supposed to be and its mouth was just a fleshy mass of pointed teeth and dark green liquid. It had long limbs and long vicious looking claws, standing at over eight feet it turned and leapt at the slaves. Latching onto one slave it raked at the slaves back and bite down into the slaves neck drinking his blood, which gushed out of the wound. Holding the dead slaves body in one hand, the monster flung the limp body across the arena with ease and it fell with an audible thump onto the arena floor. Now the slaves either screamed in terror or banded together to protect each other from the beast. Cullen, Tullius and several other strong slaves held their weapons tightly as the undead fiend slowly approached them. Then dashing to the side the monstrosity dashed around the edge of the arena herding the slaves together in the middle of the ring. Shrieking and cackling the beast feinted attacks and dodged back racing around the arena. Tullius could feel Briana trembling next to him, tears streaming down her face. Tullius again felt that rage arise within him as he grasped his sword firmly and pushed Briana behind him for her protection. Seeing this movement the fiend leapt at Tullius who was instantly aware of the monsters action. Swinging out with his sword he cleaved into the beasts shoulder sending a spray of dark green blood into the air. Knocked to one side the beast then lashed out its claw aimed at Tullius' exposed side. Then a loud yell and a downward slash as Briana jumped forward and sliced through the fiends arm. Recoiling in agony the monster dove back and shrieked as it waved its bloody stump around in the air.
The abomination maddened by its assault they leapt up onto the stand of the arena and ripped at a slaver guard, tearing at his face and throat the guard fell back to the ground in a bloody mess. The monster then started reeking havoc in the stands and the necromancers ran back out onto the arena floor and attempted to regain control of the beast. Cullen roared as he rallied the remaining slaves as they charged past the necromancers through the open arena doors. Tortage now in complete chaos as people fled screaming and Strom and the Red Hand ran to the refuge of their stronghold. The slaves cheered as they ran through the streets to the gate of Tortage and left the city. At the gate Cullen stopped however farewelling his fellow ex-captives. "Aren't you leaving with us?" Briana asked "No," Cullen replied "I'm going to stay here and make sure every slaver finds his demise, don't ask me to leave, enjoy your freedom friends now hasten before they come looking for you." Yelling farewell to Cullen, Tullius and Briana ran out of the pirate city of Tortage and into the night.
Chapter 4 – The Jungle Edit
The brief period of celebration was short lived however as the ex-slaves realised they were still trapped on the pirate island of Tortage. Briana and Tullius walked along the beach looking for a way to leave the god-forsaken island.

The NCAA Women's Golf Championship is made up of three regionals that each consist of 24 teams and six individuals.

Chicago Cubs
December 3, 2010 by USA Post
Chicago Cubs, The proposal by the Chicago Cubs to use taxpayer money to finance over 200 million and improvements at Wrigley Field so far has missed the strike zone, but ownership of the team not giving up.
When Tom Ricketts Cubs president unveiled the plan last month, he had hoped to prompt legislative approval of its proposal for funding the requested State to issue bonds on behalf of the team. He said a bill could be presented at the session of the General Assembly of veto held last week in Springfield.
But the team concept is never converted into a bill for legislators to consider because of objections to how the bonds would be repaid. The General Assembly veto session ended on Thursday morning.
The absence of legislation on Wrigley did not come as a surprise to many because the Cubs plan received little support from key elected officials. Governor Pat Quinn and Mayor Richard Daley had both asked if the renovation of a private stadium was a good use of public funds when the state and city are facing budget problems.

For 10 years, thousands of women were getting a liter of extra virgin olive oil every week in the largest study about the benefits of the Mediterranean diet. After years of tracking, this research has shown that liquid gold is a powerful protection against breast cancer.
The study began in 2003 with 7,447 participants from seven communities to check the cardiovascular benefits of the Mediterranean diet. Twelve years later, the work continues to show data, this time in relation to the most common tumor in women.
Specifically, the results presented and published in JAMA Internal Medicine, show that women who consume about four tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil a day reduced to two-thirds their risk of developing breast cancer.
As explained the author of this study – participants (4,282 women) were divided into three groups whose characteristics were identical except for the diet: Mediterranean rich in olive oil (50 grams daily) rich in nuts (30 grams of walnuts and almonds or hazelnuts) and a low fat Mediterranean diet.
Among all women, the number of cases of breast cancer along five years of tracking was only 35 (a very low number considering that one in eight should have developed, according to statistics). Probably, the authors believe, because they all had a fairly healthy diet ("the third group wasn't told to eat hamburgers every day). In the case of olive oil reduction the risk for of cancer no less than 68% was observed. Nuts diet showed some protection, but did not reach statistical significance.
Some polyphenols in extra virgin olive oil in cell lines and animal experiments have demonstrated their ability to stop cancer progression. Therefore, the hypothesis that consumption of olive oil (always talking about the extra virgin variety) would be able to stop the evolution of some very early malignant cells that may have some of these 4,000 women.
The study excluded patients already diagnosed with breast cancer at the time of its inclusion, but it would be interesting to assess the effect of olive oil in patients already diagnosed with tumors. In his view, this condiment has no health risk, any patient should include in your diet without hesitation.
12 years ago, when a group of researchers of the ability to scientifically measure the benefits of olive oil, even the producers of liquid gold raised them much attention. So with funding from the Institute of Health, they bought in the supermarket extra virgin olive oil to reach 200 health centers. With the same public funding also they paid the salaries of nurses and dietitians weekly training sessions offered to the 7,000 volunteers who would check in their own flesh the benefits of the Mediterranean diet. A third of them (men and women, although the breast cancer data refer only to the participants) 'just' had to eat a low fat diet. A second group should eat 15 grams daily of nuts and almonds or hazelnuts 15 (which also gave them to hand in their outpatient). The last third received a liter of olive oil consumption of the whole family. The indication is not used in any other type of oil at home, no butter or sunflower, or cooking or raw. Slowly producers of olive oil made aware of the importance of the experiment and began to provide free olive oil needed to continue collecting data. In 2013 findings on the benefits of the Mediterranean diet and olive oil for the heart and the study was stopped, but still throw the data. As explained lead author, through the medical records of the participants still its major clinical events so it is likely that in coming years the range of benefits of the oil will be further collected.

I have spent the last few days of my Christmas vacation (from my 9 to 5). Searching for reliable wholesale sites. Finally I choose salehoo and paid my fee, only to feel like the few 'secret sites' they offer seem to be middle man sites. I have spent about 6 hours pouring over everything offered here and have done some comaprisions on e bay. From what I see e bay is cheaper, which means no profit. They are even selling it cheaper then I, as a member could purchase items for directly from the wholesaler. So as some of you have pointed out...buy from e bay... then what? sell back to who? Who in their right mind would buy what you offer when someone else sells it much cheaper???
I have invested a lot of time into this and I am NOT ready to give up yet! Is anyone really making a profit out there? And are you willing to share your secrets? Really all I see here is a couple of sites offered...and not very good prices...like I said, compared to e bay. HELP! :?
I agree.....I just signed up for this and already thinking refund. I spent most of this morning and afternoon looking but I have yet to find a 'DEAL'
Like I said I just got the package and I will try and further my education here, but either there is a Deal or No Deal.
Then I went to e bay to check the competetion and their selling prices to see what the profit margin was. To my utter surprise, every single item that I reviewed was 50 to 75% less on e bay compared to the wholesale prices. So to answer your question. What am I looking for? Anything of intrest with a profit margin worth my time, money and energy. I have yet to find a supplier who can compete with e bay prices.
Here is your Liquidation.com answers:
I just bought a lot 15 Ipods mimi from them cost me total 1334 or $89 a unit and when i received it 8 of them not working, 2 broken displays and they only sent 3 headphone for all 15 units?.

I feel the same as the other subscribers. I haven't received anything for my money. I am just trying to find some other sites similar to dollardays.com. I have now wasted LOTS of time, since I have found none on this. I actually think I did better with google. If anyone could help me out somewhat I would GREATLY appreciate it.
