Chapter 12: The End, Pt. 3
Kenshin cocked his head as his daughter brandished two ice hammers. "What about your mother?"
Her turquoise eyes narrowed. "Did. You. Love. Her?"
The Spirit of Ice frowned. "I fail to see how that has anything to do with—"
"Answer me!" She cried.
He took a step forward, drawing more moisture from the air to form a massive blade. "I will not. You've no right to ask that of me."
Moro's scream caused Kenshin to shrink away as she charged at him; she rushed forward in a blind rage. As he brought his blade up to block her attack, she hammered repeatedly against the construct. To interrupt her attack, the spirit spun and caught a stream of water from the fountain, catching Moro in her chest and slamming her against the wall.
Just as she struck the side of the building, he froze the water in order to trap her. As she panted, he dissolved his blade and turned away.
"I suppose we're done here; go home, Moro."
Shen felt the wind whip by as he sailed toward Petrine's airship; he could already see it. His heart sank when he thought of what was to come.
Please, Petrine...don't do anything stupid.
Without warning, a pocket of air struck him and sent him into the wall of one of the skyscrapers. As he slid to the small edge that jutted out, he saw Petrine standing across the way on another building. She brandished her own staff.
"Hello, Shen," she said.
The young man got to his feet and made an air funnel to magnify his voice. "Petrine, I will give you one chance. Stop this violence, this death. Save our people!"
She shook her head. "I am only getting us what we rightly deserve; we will rise to be greater than those who thought they could destroy us."
"No...you've made the Air Nomads into something twisted, dark. They are no different now than Sozin was. I am begging you...end this!"
Her eyes widened. "How dare you compare me to Sozin? That monster and I have nothing in common!"
Shen leaned on his staff as it pressed against the stone beneath him. "You've sacrificed hundreds of our people to satisfy a vendetta that you persuaded them to help you carry out! Their blood is on your hands, Petrine," he frowned as he spoke, "But you can end it! You have the power to make things right and begin to atone. Turn yourself in and let Argho deal with Otokami!"
"Their deaths..." Petrine gritted her teeth. "They were the Fire Nation's fault! Not mine! Not mine!"
Shen sighed. "Please...don't make it come to this..."
She slammed her staff into the ground. "They gave their lives to end the Fire Nation's tyranny! They can't die in vain!"
A tear rolled down Shen's cheek as he replied, "Their deaths were already in vain; the Fire Nation already paid their toll. They did that a long time ago."
Petrine cried out and whipped her staff furiously at Shen, and a whirling vortex of air barreled toward him.
He spun his staff around his body, diffusing the attack as it reached him. "Damn it, Petrine," he whispered. "This is on your head, now."
Shen jumped from his perch and opened his glider, catching the wind and pulling up to meet her. His feet pressed against the building and began to propel him as he closed his glider and whipped it toward her. The air from his attack slammed the stone wall directly beneath her, which buckled and shattered under the force of his strike, and Petrine was forced to jump and use her own glider to fly over to where Shen had been. He kicked off of the wall and spun his staff around like a propeller, pushing himself back toward the skyscraper.
Shen landed on the perch, and they were now standing directly in front of one another. He pointed his staff at her.
"One. Last. Chance."
Petrine scowled before renewing her attack once more.
Lu Ten stared in the direction of the bay, toward Aang's statue and the abandoned convention hall as the dry, cold wind bit at his back. Usha stood at his side, though her own gaze was focused elsewhere.
"Lu Ten...do you feel—?"
The Protector shook his head. "Don't do it, Spirit of Dawn...you don't want to watch him die."
She whipped her head around. "Koh...is alive? Why?! Why was this kept from me?"
He sighed. "Did you really think they would let centuries pass without a balance to Order? They would've chosen a new Spirit of Chaos a long time ago had he actually died."
Usha's eyes widened. "I have to go; I must see him!"
As she turned to walk away, Lu Ten turned a placed a hand on her shoulder. "I know it is hard, Spirit of Dawn, but you know we cannot allow our human emotions to overcome our better judgment. Koh's time is either at an end, or he will destroy Argho. Either way, this fight is beyond us."
Usha frowned. "Why must I watch all of my sons fall this day? Tell me that, Lu Ten."
"They chose their paths, and they can either live or die by them. As for me," he began making his way toward the convention hall, "I have another bit of unpleasantness to attend to."
"Wait," she called out as he walked, "Will he be there to watch my son fight?"
"They all will, Spirit of Dawn; this is a potentially momentous day."
Kuan Ti looked straight at Lin Quei as he stood from his makeshift throne. "Zhan is preparing to lead the Equalists, and all nonbenders, into a glorious new age. You are still welcome to join us, Kuan Ti."
"No," the Equalist replied as he glanced around at ten of his former comrades.
"That's it? 'No.' That's all you have to say?"
"Violence against them will only make them hate us more; I tried to tell Zhan that." He removed his cloak and the guns from his belt. All ten of the men in the semicircle stood and assumed the traditional fighting stance taught to them by their master. They each put their right foot forward while getting a low stance, followed by holding their right hand forward and their left back toward their faces.
Kuan Ti inhaled and stepped into the semicircle. "So...you all believe that this spirit can lead you to paradise?" His hard gaze met each of theirs; they fidgeted as they stared at him. "No. It will bring you to ruin; it already has."
Two of them rushed him, coming at him from either side with a flurry of punches. He used only one hand for each of their two, blocking and redirecting each strike with ease before maneuvering them both in front of him. When they stood side by side, he lunged out with two swift strikes that crossed his own body, and both men went down clutching at their crushed windpipes.
When they saw their comrades go down, the sight inspired the other eight Equalists to action. They all charged simultaneously, quickly surrounding their former friend. As Kuan Ti fended off multiple blows from the front, he kicked back with his left leg as another man tried to attack from behind. The Equalist warrior clutched at his midsection and fell to his knees, only to catch a foot to the chin as Kuan Ti kicked up. The attacker fell after his neck snapped from the force of the deceptively powerful kick.
With seven of his former allies still out for his blood, Kuan Ti stopped attempting to redirect their blows and instead ducked around one of their punches and grabbed the woman's arm, pulling her directly in front of him. As she took the unintended wrath of her fellow warriors, Kuan Ti twisted completely, extending his leg in a spin-kick that connected with the jaw of yet another man. A wet pop accompanied the strike as the man's jaw dislocated; he fell to the floor, unconscious.
Before the two foes behind him could adjust their attacks to avoid hitting the comrade he'd put between them, he grabbed one of each of their flailing arms and pulled them forward. As they cried out due to the sudden forward motion, he brought both of his fists up to their noses. The sickening crunches and the free flow of blood stopped one of his forward attackers in his tracks. As the three Equalists behind him collapsed in a heap, he faced the last of his challengers: two women and a man.
They breathed heavily for a moment before noticing that their former leader seemed unfazed. Kuan Ti took the fight to them, though, tired of wasting time. As one tried to kick out to slow him, he grabbed her leg and twirled under to grip the other before flipping her into the air. As he turned toward the last two, her body hit the floor with a heavy thud. She didn't get up.
The second woman attempted to chi-block him, but her forms were well-known to him. He deflected her quick strikes, clapping her right ear when he found an opening and following up with a palm strike to her jaw.
The last man attacked as his comrade fell, and Kuan Ti simply pushed his blows aside. They came quickly, but they were predictable. He eventually intermixed his own blows, striking at open pressure points after he would push each attempted punch aside. One by one, the man's limbs fell useless, and he dropped to his knees.
Kuan Ti stared at him, taking in his expression of horror with a mixture of sorrow and disappointment.
The Equalist leader launched his knee into the man's chin, causing his head to snap backward. As the body fell, he turned back to Lin Quei.
"Now, I'll ask one more time: Where is Zhan?"
The spirit motioned toward the shadows, and a lightly armored, hooded figure stepped into view. Kuan Ti's eyes widened as he noticed something.
Zhan was wearing Amon's mask.
No further words were exchanged between the spirits engaged in battle; limbo shook with the force of their attacks.
Argho kicked up a chunk of earth twice his size and whipped it toward Koh's head as the Spirit of Chaos was focused on Kuruk. When the rock connected, Kuruk intercepted the spirit with a powerful air blast as he reeled from Argho's attack.
As the Face Stealer slid along the ground, he attempted to fend off Yangchen and Roku with the legs near the rear of his long body. The sharp, chitinous appendages moved as if controlled by a mind of their own, stabbing at the Avatars with murderous intent. The Airbender dipped and weaved around the erratic attacks with ease, while the Firebender kept several of the legs away by thrusting fire at them repeatedly.
A rumbling sounded along the odd world as Kyoshi raised herself up on an earthen pillar and brought up two large stones with her. When she was far above her fellow Avatars, she brought the two rocks together as one and increased the density by pushing her palms together. When it was thick enough, she violently opened both of her palms, splitting the dense construct into miniature stone bullets. Said projectiles ripped into Koh's armor, some slipping into the cracks.
Black blood spewed from his injuries, and it poured profusely from his face after taking Argho and Kuruk's abuse.
"Well...played, but even if I lose today, you cannot kill me!"
A popping sound, accompanied by a symphony of pain, caused the spirit to scream, and he turned his body to find one of his legs lying on the ground in a pool of blood. Yangchen stood next to the appendage, twirling an air ball in her hand.
"I imagine that hurt; you can end this by surrendering."
Koh chuckled. "I would never stoop so low, especially—"
Fire erupted along his left flank, incinerating three more legs. Korra smirked as the Face Stealer cried out once more.
"You're outnumbered and hilariously outgunned here," she said. "I'd do what Yangchen suggested."
Koh's laugh was deep, and it only grew louder. "This is but a minor setback. I will triumph one way or another."
He lunged at Argho, intent on breaking the connection with limbo, but pillars of earth shot out and pushed into his side all along his massive body. As he slowed, the earth itself seemed to rise up to meet and wrap around him.
The current Avatar frowned as Koh stretched, attempting to break from his earthen prison. The glow in his eyes intensified, and white fire wrapped around his hands.
"I'm done listening to your prattle, spirit." Argho clenched his fists, causing fire to fly from them with explosive force. "Immortal or otherwise, come back from this!"
Flames flew from his feet, propelling him toward the Spirit of Chaos, and his fist was coated in a bright fire. As he reached Koh, the spirit broke free and attempted to intercept him. Argho's strike buried itself into Koh's face with explosive force, and flames spewed in every direction as the spirit screamed.
When the smoke cleared, all seven Avatars stood in a semicircle around Koh's body. The spirit sputtered and attempted to push himself up on his remaining legs. His attempts failed.
He had a smile on his face regardless. "How many times do I have to tell you, Avatar? You cannot destroy me!"
Argho scowled. "I am more than willing to try."
"You will not have to, Argho; that is our prerogative," a deep voice said.
All seven Avatars turned to see four incredible figures standing in their midst. Roku, Aang, and Yangchen bowed low, while Korra, Kuruk, Kyoshi, and Argho remained standing.
Argho addressed the glowing figure that stood out in front of them, "So, you're the Shinigami, then."
The glowing spirit nodded. "You finally know my name; though I am surprised you discovered this fact from someone other than Raava."
Argho allowed the glow to fade from his eyes. "Raava has never seen fit to address me. I suppose she feels that the instruction from my recent past is enough." He glanced at the other three spirits.
Ah, yes. These," he gestured to the other three spirits, "Are my fellow councilmembers." The Shinigami gestured to the first, a tree-like spirit with multiple faces. "This is the Spirit of Order, Koh's opposite. She is known as the Mother of Faces. This," he motioned to a dark circular mass with tentacles spiraling along its edge and a single green eye in the middle, "is the current Spirit of Darkness. Vaatu's ways, much like those of the second Spirit of Chaos, required that he be replaced. Finally, seeing as Raava now resides in you as a representative of balance, a new spirit of light was created from her essence."
A light, distinctly female voice met Argho's ears. It belonged to a stark white quadrupedal spirit. "I am Hikara; I spawned from what remained of Raava's light when Vaatu—"
"Enough, Hikara," the Spirit of Darkness admonished.
Argho glanced at the Shinigami, but the glowing figure simply turned his gaze on Koh's pitiful state.
"You're forgetting someone," Koh said, a frown forming on his face.
The Spirit of Order spoke instead, "We'll get to that. Your judgment will come soon enough. I have been waiting for this day, Face Stealer, the day when you would overstep your bounds."
The Shinigami took a step forward, and the strange plants grew and withered as before. "We are here for one purpose: to pass judgment."

I've always been a daddy's girl. On road trips, we competed over who sported the most hawks first. Our favorite competition was, upon seeing each other, who could say the words "I love you best" first. If I got him first, Dad would reply, "I'll get you—just wait."
My dad died the night before my 50th birthday. The next day, Mom brought me a gift, saying, "This is from your dad. He bought it for you five years ago." Inside was a beautiful gold pocket watch. Engraved on the inside were the words I love you best—Gotcha.

[Himeji Castle]
Galleries Four and Five are again for the permanent exhibition and these are perhaps the most interesting part of the museum, as they have displays about Himeji Castle and other castles in Japan. Himeji is one of the only twelve castle keeps (or donjons) that survive in their original state. Others are, for example, Inuyama (built in 1537), Matsumoto (1596), Hikone (1606), Matsue (1611) and Kochi (1745). Himeji castle itself dates from 1609. There is also a model of the now destroyed Edo Castle, which used to be the largest in the country. Most castles were destroyed in a wave of anti-feudal feelings after the start of the Meiji period, and the resulting open spaces were often used for building the new prefectural offices. After seeing all the models, from one of the northern windows of the museum you can get a view of Himeji Castle, majestically rising up like a white heron taking off in flight.

The European Commission said Prime Minister David Cameron and Chancellor George Osborne were right to accelerate Labour's proposals to cut spending and raise taxes.
It said they had to start consolidating the country's finances over 2010-11 to correct the deficit by 2014-15.
"The current economic circumstances call for a decisive fiscal consolidation," said the EU's commissioner in charge of economic affairs, Olli Rehn.
"The budgetary targets presented by the UK government are in line with this strategy."
About three-quarters of the overall reduction in Britain's headline deficit is planned to take place through spending cuts.
All EU governments have agreed a deadline to reduce their deficits below 3%. Britain has set the longest time period - until fiscal year 2014/15 - when it says the deficit could fall to 2.3%.
"Provided they are implemented as planned, the measures announced will strengthen confidence in the United Kingdom's commitment to putting its public finances back on a sustainable path," the Commission said in a regular report on countries with large deficits.

Homeless coalition facing homelessness: Local advocacy group struggles to keep afloat amid changing policy landscape
Wednesday, June 30, 2004
- SF Bay Guardian
- Link: http://www.sfbg.com
The San Francisco Coalition on Homelessness - an agency whose policy and program decisions are made by homeless and formerly homeless people - faces what could be the most severe funding shortage in its 17-year history. Without a significant increase in new money over the next couple of months, the group risks losing its offices for lack of rent.
The strained financial situation for the group comes as homeless coalitions nationwide face tight budgets, according to Donald Whitehead, executive director of the National Coalition for the Homeless in Washington, D.C. Whitehead told the Bay Guardian that under the Bush administration funds have been especially scarce for overtly political organizations.
"During this administration, support for groups that are more advocacy-based groups and groups that have poor or homeless in their leadership has gone down," Whitehead said.
The effect on the local coalition - which is best known for its in-your-face direct action and vocal legislative advocacy but which has also founded direct service programs - has been dramatic. In early June the group laid off all of its 13 paid staffers and has been running on volunteer time, with shortened hours, according to executive director Paul Boden. Circulation of the Street Sheet, the newspaper put out by the group and sold by homeless people, has been reduced.
Boden, who was laid off with the rest of his staff, said the group needs about $100,000 to bring its employees back to paid status by the end of the year.
Part of the problem the organization faces is common to most nonprofits. After 9/11 many foundation investments lost money, leaving a very thin funding pool available, with no less need. But there's possibly a lot more to it.
One challenge is a systemic problem among left-leaning foundations. A study released earlier this year by the National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy shows that conservative funders are more effective than liberal or left-wing foundations in advancing their policy agenda by giving to groups in a sustained way.
What could be hitting the homeless coalitions in particular, by Whitehead's analysis, is that funders have been influenced by the emphasis the Bush administration's homeless czar, Philip Mangano, has placed on supportive housing and ending "chronic homelessness" - a notion that's been embraced by Mayor Gavin Newsom.
"The president's plan talks about ending chronic homelessness but cuts the Section 8 program," he said. "The organizations that are experiencing financial difficulties are the organizations that oppose it." While Mangano is promoting an increase in supportive housing funds, he's on record as endorsing deep cuts in the federal Section 8 program, which subsidizes rents for low-income people.
But Whitehead supports a comprehensive approach to ending homelessness, which emphasizes affordable housing, living-wage jobs, and broad-based social change. That's the same approach taken by the local coalition, which has created a public relations problem for the group: comprehensive social change is hard to fit into a sound bite, and it's tough to compete with well-tailored, poll-driven nuggets like "care not cash.
And over the years - as the coalition has fought with mayor after mayor over policy decisions - it has been portrayed as stalling and angry, coalition board member Alissa Riker said.
Riker, who directs jail services for the Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice, said this is especially a factor in the public perception of fights over "quality of life" crimes (like sleeping outside or pissing in the bushes).
"The jail is the most expensive and inappropriate homeless shelter that San Francisco has," Riker said. "The coalition is continually fighting the enforcement and prosecution of quality-of-life offenses, and in their opposition to these efforts, they're portrayed as if they're advocating for people to die on the streets. In reality they've been advocating for years for treatment."
Community Housing Partnership director Jeff Kosinsky has a similar analysis: "They've gotten in the past a really bad rap as maniacal advocates that don't accomplish much. Yet the coalition has helped form an amazing number of organizations." Among them is Kosinsky's organization, a supportive housing program - like the ones Newsom is lauding - that serves more than 500 people.
The coalition was also instrumental in the creation of the city's homeless death prevention team, several homeless shelters, a substance abuse program for African American women, and the city's shelter grievance program. And when its members aren't using direct action to make a point (as they did this week to push for compromise on the housing bond), they're often helping people in concrete ways.
Earlier this year the group worked with the San Francisco Housing Authority to rehabilitate about 100 vacant public housing units for homeless people. Coalition members are also key players in affordable-housing policy work, including the effort to use surplus city land for housing.
And though they're often in the position of strongly disagreeing with those in power about how to help the homeless without infringing on civil rights, they continue to participate in the city process.
Kosinsky puts it this way: "The mayor has gone down a certain road with how he wants to deal with the homeless, and the coalition has been working closely with him to protect the rights of homeless people. They're big enough to work with people they've fought with bitterly for years."

For years, Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) was fully focused on making powerful microprocessors for personal computers. Now it is changing its model to one that focuses on every kind of chip, from those in cars to those in phones. I think that Intel's technological brilliance and scale will eventually prevail over the headstart that manufacturers selling chips based on ARM Holdings (NASDAQ:ARMH) have built (and so do other people, check out this poll). As battery technology improves and smartphones begin to perform more and more complicated tasks, Intel's powerful chips will become more and more attractive to phone manufacturers. Our future phones will have "Intel Inside ®".
To me ARM's main advantage is that of a first mover. That's what allowed it to completely monopolise mobile chips so quickly. There is no question that with enough time Intel could have matched and beaten chips that are based on ARM's architecture in battery life, performance, price, and suitability for tablets and phones, but ARM was just so early to market.
ARM was co-founded by Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) (see this interesting article by the BBC) when it needed a new kind of chip that consumed low power in order to power its Newton tablet (interesting review of the Newton) in 1987. That's a huge head-start, and it explains why ARM dominated the market today.
Now let's talk about why ARM will not hold its reign and why Intel will bring it down:
- First mover's advantage is never enough. ARM's advantage has been huge. As I explained earlier in this article, it got a MASSIVE head start and that's what has made it so successful. But headstarts don't make a company stay on top in the long term. Sure, ARM's architecture is advantageous for small, efficient chips, but Intel can adapt to that with time. Companies like Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) are holding Intel down right now, but in the long run the company with the best products will eventually prevail. Apple wasn't the first MP3 player maker. Windows was not the first OS to have a near-monopoly in computers. Apple's iPhone was not the first touch-screen smartphone. Intel wasn't always the chip to power Macs. Over time, things really do change, and the better products tend to win.
- Intel has the best manufacturing capabilities in the world for chips, hands down. (See this article — "They invested billions in hyperproductive plants that could crank out more processors in a day than some rivals did in a year"). This will help it wipe out that first mover's advantage in the long-run. The moment I saw the first previews for Intel's upcoming 22nm chips with 3D transistors (Ivy Bridge — see this article), I bought shares in Intel. That was all the confirmation I needed that Intel is superior in innovation. Ask any industry expert and the one opinion that will be consistently positive will be that on Intel's manufacturing and technological capabilities in the long run. Just look at what the company has done to this day, at its history. Intel always delivers.
- Intel is taking care of the software. The company helped Google re-write and optimise the latest versions of Android to work perfectly with phones running the Intel architecture. Focusing on Android was a very, very smart move. The popular phones running on this platform often attract users with the sheer power of the newest processors that they feature, and if Intel chips become superior to ARM's, manufacturers like Motorola and HTC (2498.TW) will come crawling for the newest Atom.
- Intel is signing contracts where is matters. We officially found out at CES that Motorola plans to roll out lots of Intel smartphones. This is huge news, and I think that the market under-reacted on that day. Let's not forget that Motorola is now owned by Google (NASDAQ:GOOG). First Android gets fully optimised for Intel chips, then Motorola announces a significant partnership with Intel. Is anyone else seeing a pattern with Google's actions here, or is it just me?
- Focusing on Android first was smart. Intel needs volume in chips, and Android's where the volume's at. It can convert Apple later, once its chips completely outperform the others on every level (which will happen eventually, the question is just when). And when Windows Phones take over their slice of the market, they will probably be running a version of Windows 8, which will work for both ARM and Intel. The company with the best performing chips in will be on Windows Phones in 4 years. Intel needs to deliver soon though. A head start becomes harder and harder to overturn every year the current dominant companies stay on top.
This is why I'm predicting a "critical point" (a turnaround) in Intel's mobile chip business in the near future. Don't miss out!

Room was awesome. We took a river view room, which was worth the extra $6 a night. Best value for money hotel so far in Thailand. Don't use Waze to navigate there. Google maps did the job much much better.
Wonderful buffet, spacious rooms, beautiful views. Had a small problem with our room safe which was remedied quickly and satisfactorily.

Lavish conference tip of the iceberg
Once was not nearly enough when it comes to wasteful spending at the federal General Services Administration.
Where there's an egregious example of government waste, it's a pretty fair bet that it reflects a pattern, not an isolated incident.
So it is that congressional investigators, alerted by the recent government reports about the General Services Administration's decision to hold an $823,000 conference for agency employees, are digging up more examples of bureaucrats living large at taxpayer expense.
Agency employees, who have been promised protection from retaliation, are telling investigators of numerous abuses of taxpayer dollars including:
— Evading a $71-a-day allowance for food by characterizing some purchases as "finger food" to be served at non-existent award ceremonies. The so-called finger food included prime rib and pasta.
— Officials taking vacation trips that were characterized as necessities of work. One example is a weeklong trip to Hawaii by an undetermined number of GSA officials whose sole work-related event was to attend a brief ribbon-cutting ceremony.
— Spending exorbitant amounts of money to move employees from one part of the country to another. One blatant example involved spending $330,000 to move an employee from Denver to Hawaii, only to have the employee quit within a year.
The disconnect between what's happened at the GSA, which is in charge of federal buildings and supplies, and what life is like in the real world could not be more stark, and it obviously went all the way to the top of this free-spending agency. GSA head Martha Johnson already has resigned in the wake of a GSA inspector general's report detailing the $823,000 squandered at a July 2010 GSA conference in Las Vegas. The event featured lavish entertainment, but no real substantive purpose, according to the inspector general's report.
In addition to Johnson's resignation, two top GSA officials have been fired while eight others have been placed on administrative leave.
But that hardly seems like enough to straighten out an atmosphere of contempt for taxpayer dollars. It sounds as if wholesale changes and stricter oversight are required to straighten out the mess at GSA.

The popularity of Stefan Janoski's Nike SB signature shoes has practically transcended the Swoosh skateboarding division. He's not officially to the level of a Paul Rodriguez spin-off brand, but it's hard to argue that any SB pro model is hotter than this one releasing in six different styles spread across the two heights this month. Starting with the classic lowtop Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski, there's one in black suede with Pink Foil, another in Laser Orange suede with black Swooshes, a leather 'blackout' colorway and that reads like a canvas answer to the 'All Day Every Day' suede pair. On the midtop side of things, the Terracotta sole returns beneath a Dark Grey wool while Military Blue splits itself between suede and canvas to round out the set. Check out the entire six-pack in more photos below, then grab your selection(s) from skate shops like MIA.

Bob & Victoria are wonderful, gracious hosts and their lovely home provided a much needed get away! The bay is only a block or so away, with exquisite views. The property is private and the kitchen large. We bbq'd and enjoyed our meals in the yard. We saw deer, a huge, majestic owl, and many other species of birds. Just lovely!
The home was exactly what we were looking for, for the weekend. It was well taken care of and close enough to everything that we needed to be with a great location to the beach. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners the night we got there and they were just as great! Overall my friends and I would recommend East Hampton, and this home, to anyone that is looking for a get away.
This was a great house with plenty of sleeping space, a great outdoor area for bocce ball and barbequing and just a short walk to the bay for fishing. Great kitchen and huge tv for cooking dinner inside. Restaurants and shopping a short drive away.
Our family just returned from a weeks stay at this charming property. The location was perfect! We enjoyed the calm Three Mile Harbor area: amazing sunsets, successful family fishing, and convenient yet true to Hampton expectations, dinning to choose from. We were only a short, beautiful drive to the many ocean beaches. We delighted in the outdoors of the property itself. The landscaping provided privacy while inviting us to enjoy time right outside our door. We found the cottage to have plenty of room for our family of four ( two children with lots of energy). I discovered the screened in porch to be the perfect spot for evening reading and sleeping. We appreciated all the updated appliances and the spacious kitchen for cooking. The cottage was very clean and cozy. With past summer rentals I have had mixed feelings about trusting how the experience would unfold. What we are most grateful for with this beach rental, is the care and concern from the owners. Our brief encounters with them were a pleasure. We felt complete confidence that they were willing to do whatever they could to make sure our family had a fun and special summer vacation while staying in their cottage. We look forward to enjoying this cottage again in the future.

|Part of the Kyoshi Revolts continuity.
|"Welcome to Kein Forest, where all rebels are safe."
|— Kambi greeting Team Rebel in City of Rebellion
Kambi is a prisoner of the Fire Nation and the former ruler of the Rebel City. Kambi is a kind man who believes in justice and equality. Despite not being a bender, Kambi is skilled with many Water Tribe affiliated weapons.
Kambi grew up with the desire to rebel. Following his brother and sister's deaths, Kambi formed the Rebel City with his associates Ray and Giu. Kambi also quickly befriended rebels Mina and Kaila, as well as Avatar Chen. Kambi's leadership finally ended in 130 AG when Princess Mitsuki infiltrated and conquered the city through a conspiracy. Kambi was quickly arrested by Mitsuki before he could retaliate. His current fate is unknown.
Kambi also has many family members, all of them used for comedy relief. They consist of his mother Marisolla, his grandmother Kama, and his nephew Saito.
Kambi was originally born on a mysterious island called the Spartan Islands, where he was the son of the chief. Though he was not considered to be of any nation, he had heavy Water Tribe heritage in him. Kambi was born right after the Fire Nation won The War, though throughout all his life, he knew that he needed to stand up for the rest of the world. One day, at the age of only thirteen, he left the Spartan Islands, and set sail with his brother and sister to the Earth Kingdom lands. While there, the three kids were able to blend in with no problem, though one day, the children were caught scheming to attack a base. It wasn't long before Kambi and his siblings were forced to fight twenty soldiers.
The three kids fought well and hard, but at the end of the fight, Kambi was the only one of his siblings to survive. Heartbroken, Kambi nearly committed suicide, though something stopped him from doing it, as he felt that his death would put a huge negative impact on the world. It took years to let Kambi realize that it certainly would have.
Founding Kein Forest
From the age of 15 to 20, Kambi traveled all over the world, gathering rebels and escaped slaves from every corner of the globe. Eventually, he and all the other rebels all came together, and colonized the big and prosperous Rebel City in Kein Forest. When Azula learned of this, she ordered Kambi be assassinated, though the assassins failed. After a few small invasions, Azula decided to ignore the city. Kambi saw his options, and decided to order a select group of assassins sneak into the Fire Nation and build a base, and then, at precisely 130 AG, they kill Azula. This plan failed, and Azula was able to kill very assassin at the base herself.
Battle at Kein Forest
A day after the failed assassination attempts on Azula, the members of Team Rebel were brought to Kambi. Kambi happily welcomes them, and made them his guests of honor, allowing them to have their own room in his palace. Kambi, as well as Ray and Giu, his close and personal advisers and friends, quickly bonded with the three children.
However, good things never last. A few days after Team Rebel's arrival, Kambi starts having visions and senses demonic presences are nearing him. Kambi sent some scouts out to find any disturbances. Most of them were murdered, and the only one alive told him that the demonic presence was an armada of warships and airships. Kambi then ordered his men to prepare for the attack, as he knew what the airships were heading to. When the battle started, Kambi battled on the front lines with all his other men, and, though the main target, fought with strength and defeated every soldier who attacked him.
Meanwhile, however, Tam Mee caused great damage to Kambi's men and even disabled Ray's bending for the rest of the battle. Kambi recognized her as the Earth Kingdom heiress, and told his men to leave the scene the minute they see her. After receiving very negative news from Ray, Kambi finally decides that he must turn himself in to Princess Mitsuki, and that maybe she'll leave the other rebels alone (even though Kambi thinks he'll be double-crossed anyway).
As he walks down his palace steps, he is approached by Tam Mee and Quanlee, who are ready to arrest him. Suddenly however, a rookie soldier infuriates Chen so much, that Chen goes into the Avatar State, revealing himself to be the Avatar. He saves Kambi's life by scaring all the people ready to take him captive away, and he also drives away Mitsuki's fleet (though he is unable to kill the Princess). Kambi can only watch in amazement with the other rebels, until Chen slowly calms down, and faints from exhaustion.
Ruling Kein Forest
New Friends
When Chen awakens after the battle, Kambi and the others great him warmly, though Chen is still very frustrated. Later on, Kambi tells the other rebels that they are in big trouble, as Chen's connection to his past lives is severely dampened. Chen overhears the entire conversation, and is very upset to the point of nearly contemplating suicide, though after talking his father and Avatar Aang, Chen accepts who he is, and asks Ray to teach him Waterbending, which makes Kambi smile.
A few days later, Kambi's mother, Marisolla, visits him from the Spartan Islands. Kambi is terrified of her, and even attempts hiding at one point. Things only get worst when Giu blurts out to Marisolla that Kambi was nearly killed in the Battle at Kein Forest. After hearing this, Marisolla tells Kambi he's moving back to the Spartan Islands with her. Kambi, scared of confronting his mother, asks Mina, Kaila, Chen, Ray, and Giu to do it, though Marisolla throws them through her window the minute they try to argue with her.
Finally, Kambi confronts his mother, and tells her that he's a grown man, and he can take care of himself. Marisolla says she trusts him, but suddenly, an assassin sneaks in and nearly Kambi, though Marisolla promptly snaps the assassins neck with her bare hands. After seeing this, she comes to the conclusion that Kambi needs someone to protect him. Kambi at first believes she is going to stay with him, though Marisolla instead has Kambi's senile grandmother, Kama, stay with him. Kambi is very distraught by this, and ends up fainting from shock.
After Chen begins training with Ray, Kambi, seeing how bored Mina and Kaila are, decides to find them mentors, so they may train themselves. Kambi asks his old friends, Arrow and Lee. Arrow accepts, though Kambi must try a bit harder to convince Lee to train Kaila. Eventually, however, Lee agrees, mainly because of his and Kambi's friendship.
Other Adventures
Kambi, with Ray and Giu, leaves the Rebel City temporarily to go to a fortress selling armory. On their way, however, they run into Yi himself. Without knowing how to stop Yi's technique, Kambi is blasted into the nearby river. His grandmother, however, saves him, Ray, and Giu in time by throwing a grenade at Yi, which throws him into a tree. Kambi is then helped out of the river by his bodyguards. He is slightly bruised up, but not severely hurt. A few days later, his nephew Saito comes to the city for a visit. He decides to give Giu the task of watching him, and says that if anything happens, he will hold him responsible.
After finding out that his grandmother is ill, Kambi has a doctor examine her. Kama tells Kambi that the doctor says she has "Purple Fever", which greatly upsets him. He calls a meeting with his fellow rebels, in which he informs them of Kama's illness. He also reveals that he has the intention of escorting his grandmother to Roki Forest to get the cure himself. Ray strongly disagrees, and tells Kambi that he needs to stay in the city and rule. She, along with Mina, Kaila, Chen, and Giu volunteer to take him instead. The following day, the five kids leave with Kama. Kambi bids them a farewell. Coinciding with their departure, three rebels girls that Kambi sent for are revealed to have finally arrived in the city. Kambi leaves to greet them.
Conspiracy of Kein Forest
Unbeknown to Kambi, the three rebel girls are none other than Princess Mitsuki and her friends Tam Mee and Quanlee. Kambi happily welcomes them, believing they are his fellow rebels. He is easily deceived by Mitsuki when she stages an act where she "saves" him and a servant from Fire Nation soldiers. Thinking that Mitsuki and her friends have saved his life, he allows them access to his secret war meetings with his ten officials. He displays his trust and gratitude to them by showing them the city's master plans and by having his officials applaud. He remains completely unaware of Mitsuki's true intentions, which quickly proves to be his tragic undoing.
When the meeting concludes, Kambi prepares to leave and lock up the room. He is stopped in his tracks by Tam Mee, who distracts him by doing many bizarre and incredibly tricks. While Kambi is distracted, Mitsuki snatches the master plans. Unfortunately, Kambi does not realize that the plans have been stolen until after Mitsuki interprets the information and sends it to General Yi and Colonel Xan. The following morning, Kambi calls Mitsuki and her friends into his throne room, and tells them that the plans were stolen, and that he suspects they may have done it. Mitsuki finally reveals their true identity to Kambi. Before he can sound for his guards, his chi is blocked by Tam Mee, and Quanlee ties a cloth around his mouth.
Kambi is taken down to a secret underground prison that Mitsuki discovers through the master plans. She uses him as a hostage, and has all the prisoners freed. She then arrests Kambi and every guard in the prison. After being thrown into prison, Kambi tells Mitsuki that she won't get away with what she is doing. Unfortunately, Mitsuki officially conquers the city after sending Yi's troops in. Ray and Giu attempt to rescue Kambi, though Tam Mee and Quanlee stop him. Kambi's friends are forced to abandon him, and he remains in jail.
Kambi is a very strong, independent man who cares deeply for the people around him. He is very passionate about what he does, though occasionally his feelings for his fellow rebels can cloud his judgment. Kambi can be very stubborn on occasions, vowing never to leave a battle or to sacrifice other rebels. Kambi is also very trusting, as the fact that Chen was the former Crown Prince of the Fire Nation didn't bother him at all, and he gladly welcomed him and the rest of Team Rebel to his palace. His trusting nature, however, proves his downfall when Mitsuki and her friends infiltrate his city disguised as rebels. Believing them to be his allies, he gives away a great amount of information on the city, which eventually leads to his arrest and the city's demise.
Though not a bender, Kambi is very skilled with many weapons, mainly Water Tribe weapons, as he is of Water Tribe heritage. His skills give him the capability to fight with all his other soldiers on the front lines, where he also exhibited great strength, by smashing an attacking Fire Nation soldier into the ground with just two fingers. Where he learned all these skills is unknown. Kambi has also has shown great accuracy, being able to incapacitate a man who's 60 yards away with a javelin.
Non-canon Appearances
Kambi appears in Part 2 of the non-canon crossover, Clash of Worlds. Kambi seems to keep his personality. He expresses anxiety over having the task of welcoming a new group of rebels that are entering the city, disguised as hookers. Kambi is also shocked at Shiungi's actions, saying "What's wrong with that woman!"

I poodle around Town most of the time and my commute to work is a 7 mile round trip ( yes I should probably walk or Bus, but who wants too ) I do a 60 mile round trip every 2 weeks and a 100 mile round trip every 6 weeks ( visiting rellys) So this really will be a girly car although I will defo spec the Sport pack. Suggestions would be welcome and I do prefer petrol versions. I'm hoping to put my order in by July as I'm trying not to have a loan or hp and would prefer to pay outright, the budget is 19k after a assumed discount of some sort :icon_thumright: Thank you

Comment and Analysis @ghostgoal
John Obi Mikel: Chelsea midfielder still unbeaten under Guus Hiddink
Last Updated: 05/02/16 6:13am
With Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel having extended his unbeaten record under Guus Hiddink to 25 games, Adam Bate examines his impressive record and the reasons for his success…
John Terry is Chelsea's captain, leader and legend and one of the definitions of leadership is making others better as a result of your presence. It's a hard one to identify in sport as it is in business but it's customary to examine results. It's here that John Obi Mikel might feel entitled to a claim.
The Nigerian midfielder's unbeaten record under Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink has become well documented in recent weeks and that sequence continued at Watford on Wednesday. Over two spells under the Dutchman, Mikel has gone unbeaten in 25 appearances for the Blues.
It's not been straightforward. The run has included shut outs away to Barcelona and Manchester United, while there have been wins at Arsenal seven years apart. The only game that Hiddink has lost so far as Chelsea boss came against Tottenham at White Hart Lane in 2009. Mikel was injured.
Mikel under Hiddink - First spell
|2008/09 season
There was another game that ended badly for Hiddink's Blues - Andres Iniesta's stoppage-time equaliser winning that year's Champions League semi-final for Barcelona. It wouldn't be a shock if the boss regrets leaving Mikel on the bench that day rather than having him shutting the Spaniard down.
Hiddink favourite
John Obi Mikel has now started six Premier League games in a row for the first time since 2012.
So what is it about Mikel? At Vicarage Road, there were four tackles, two clearances and three interceptions to emphasise his influence. The 28-year-old was the only midfielder on the pitch to win possession of the ball more times than he surrendered it. It was classic Mikel.
The Premier League tracking data that records distance covered and sprints is not so remarkable, but perhaps there's some sense in that too. Protection for the back four is provided by his presence. As a result, mobility in midfield isn't always a virtue when it's vacating the position that's the problem.
Ostensibly, Nemanja Matic is the more capable player in many ways but Mikel's appreciation of the holding aspect of the holding-midfield role might make him, rather that the talented Serb, the man that Chelsea needed during their period of poor form earlier in the campaign.
Mikel's domination of this key central zone was particularly apparent in the recent 3-0 win at Crystal Palace, a game in which his name was chanted vociferously by the visiting supporters. "I don't think I've ever seen John Obi Mikel play so well," Graeme Souness told Sky Sports. "He bossed that area."
Hiddink, on the other hand, has seen it all before. "He's the ideal player to bring balance to the team," he said. "If the team is not willing to defend well, or hasn't got the right balance, then you'll concede a lot of goals. I think John Obi can be one of the key figures in bringing back that balance.
He's the ideal player to bring balance to the team.
Guus Hiddink on John Obi Mikel
"He reads the game very well, he knows where the strength of the opponent is and knows how to combat that. He has very good sense, he doesn't do it in a brutal way, he's very elegant. Someone who can defend so smoothly is very beautiful."
It's also effective. Since being restored to the starting line-up, Chelsea have kept four clean sheets in six games. That's as many as they managed in the previous 18 matches. Getting the basics right has been a feature of Hiddink's approach. He's kept things simple, and that's just how Mikel likes it.
"It's the way he communicates with the players and maybe that's what the players felt they didn't get from the previous manager," said Mikel in a surprise dig at former boss Jose Mourinho. "You need to speak to them and don't just ignore them because players like to be communicated to."
For the midfielder, the instructions are crystal clear now. "He's good in short passing," explained Hiddink. "I don't expect and I don't ask him to make the decisive final pass. He can but no, we let the other players do that. The talented players can then explore their qualities."
Mikel under Hiddink - Second spell
|2015/16 season
Mikel has the best passing accuracy of any Chelsea midfielder, finding a team-mate 89.4 per cent of the time. It's almost a throwback to the pure holding midfielders of the past, such as one-time Chelsea team-mate Claude Makelele. Mikel doesn't fashion the chances. But that's not his job.
Of course, this lack of creativity might lead some to conclude that this is no long-term solution. Not everyone is comfortable with the man they call 'the final whistle' due to the regularity with which he has been introduced from the bench in order to defend leads, blowing right from the kick-off.
But whatever the future holds, his presence isn't doing Chelsea too much harm right now. The simple approach is helping. This was about steadying this ship. And even now, six-and-a-half years on from Hiddink's last spell, they don't come much steadier than John Obi Mikel.

I know that it is possible to connect to a remote site via VPN and to perform a network scan. However, we have several client sites to which we connect (one at any one time). Is there a way periodically to scan and collect network/device info on these sites without having to change the remote domain user credentials? Also, will devices potentially with the same IP address be overwritten by the newest scanned info? (If devices are defined by their MAC address, then perhaps the Spiceworks database will recognise them as distinct devices...)
This topic was created during version 4.0.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.

No way to do this officially. SpiceWorks is not yet designed to handle this type of scenario.
I believe that you do not have to worry about overwrites, though. That much I think works.
Jul 7, 2009 at 6:12 UTC
I think in your situation the best thing would be to have multiple installations of Spiceworks running, one at each location. When you establish your periodic VPN connection you can connect to the Spiceworks installation at the given site and check Spiceworks.
Does this make sense?
Refer to this how-to if you want to pull in the remote Spiceworks inventories to a single central installation, but this would be best suited for an environment with constant VPN connections:
Jul 8, 2009 at 3:24 UTC
Hi Ben.B
Not only does your post make sense, the remote collector functionality sounds great! Thank you for the info + link. This will certainly take care of the issue of network scans of different physical remote offices with the same IP addressing scheme.
However, will the Spiceworks central server be happy with, say, two different entities from two disctinct remote offices having the same IP address?
(I will of course start testing asap, but if there are known issues/workarounds, it would be very handy to know!)
Jul 8, 2009 at 9:11 UTC
I think I should clarify - there are two separate setups in my previous post.
- 1. Run multiple autonomous installations of Spiceworks, one on each remote network. When VPN is open use the connection to access the remote Spiceworks installation. Most likely you will not have a "local" Spiceworks installation on your network.
- 2. Run multiple installations of Spiceworks, one on each remote network. Each remote installation functions only to send Inventory back to a central installation on your local site. This scenario is not as appropriate when the VPN connections are not constant/permanent. Multiple duplicate IP addresses would confuse Spiceworks (and you) based on the way IP addresses are used by Spiceworks.
I think the first option is your only real choice. The second option is intended for environments where there are multiple disjointed sites that are all a part of a single network (no duplicate IP addresses).
Hopefully I have not been more confusing than helpful.
Jul 8, 2009 at 10:14 UTC
OK, understood. I think I was focussing on the second of the two scenarios.
Option 1 is straightforward, although obviously if it is the same team of remote resolvers, they would not have access to a single, combined overview. However, from what you say, this may be the only or best way to proceed.
Option 2 is what I would like ideally. To overcome the issue of impermanent site-to-site VPN links, the remote Windows Spiceworks workstation/server could have a permanent client-to-data centre VPN and could therefore upload inventory etc as it likes. Perhaps the issue to explore a little further is that of how Spiceworks handles IP addresses.
In other asset management apps, assets tend to be identified (internally) via the MAC address, as this most often stays constant throughout the life of the asset, while the IP address can change, especially for DHCP clients. (Changes of network card need to be managed somehow, though.)
How does Spiceworks manage changes of IP addresses? For example, what happens when a DHCP workstation scanned/audited by Spiceworks gets rescanned after its IP address changes?
Jul 8, 2009 at 10:44 UTC
I guess the concern here is that Spiceworks may at some point have 2 devices in its Inventory with the same IP address.
Spiceworks handles IP address changes well, though we use device serial number instead of MAC address as a unique identifier. In this way we can link multiple NICs to a single device, if necessary, without problems.
Ultimately the decision is yours - its a call on whether or not you want to combine the Inventories of each of the remote sites into one Inventory. At this point Spiceworks does not separate devices as being from the different sites automatically (or based on which remote site submitted the given device).
If DNS is working properly duplicate IP addresses in Spiceworks may not be a problem. Scott Alan - what do you think? You are running multiple VPNs, right?
Jul 8, 2009 at 10:44 UTC
Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider.
IP addresses can change. DHCP is pretty common and SpiceWorks handles that gracefully. Overlapping IP addresses, though, is a network impossibility so that makes things a bit more complex since SpiceWorks is network aware.
Jul 8, 2009 at 11:58 UTC
Niagara Technology Group (NTG) is an IT service provider.
I run multiple VPNs, yes. No problems there (except with the network map, of course) but I do not have any overlapping IPs (which you can't have on a VPN anyway.)
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.
You may get a better answer to your question by starting a new discussion.

From Wikipedia
Attack of the Sun
A coronal mass ejection (CME) is a massive burst of solar wind, other light isotope plasma, and magnetic fields rising above the solar corona or being released into space.Coronal mass ejections release huge quantities of matter, magnetic
fields and electromagnetic radiation into space above the sun's
surface, either near the corona or farther into the planet system or
beyond (interplanetary CME). The ejected material is a plasma consisting primarily of electrons and protons, but may contain small quantities of heavier elements such as helium, oxygen, and even iron. It is associated with enormous changes and disturbances in the coronal magnetic field.
