As You Are Now, So Once Was I
Part VII
April 12, 2017, 10:06 A.M.
Schoolcraft County Police Department
Manistique, Michigan
To say the atmosphere in the conference room is tense would be the understatement of the century. Quite possibly the millennium. The conspicuous absence of Morgan, and the very glacial exit and insubordination of Emily's radiate throughout. They, however, are not remotely the largest elephant in the room.
The elephant being, not unexpectedly, Dean Winchester.
Garcia and Reid glance at each other, trying to see if either has a definitive Plan. Seeing that they don't, they look to Rossi, the authority second only to Hotch that'd at least seemed open to the idea of Dean helping them out. Rossi keeps his gaze firmly on the grain of the old table; not because he doesn't want to reassure the younger two, but because he's not quite sure what he could say or express.
What, that he was considering taking a murderer up on his offer? No matter how innocent Dean postured himself, no matter how much he played up the green eyes and full lips—Rossi thinks that Dean didn't consciously do so, but that old habits die hard—to Garcia and J.J., no matter the intelligence he aimed to exude to pull in Reid, no matter the respectful semi-deference to Hotch. Rossi won't deny that Dean had all the tricks that would convince anyone, and doesn't doubt that, given enough time, he could sway the unit chief, but unfortunately, Dean had sensed his window of opportunity was up.
Rossi wonders what Morgan and Emily are up to, doesn't think it's even remotely in the vicinity of Hotch's wishes, and hopes they haven't gone and done something stupid. It's wishful thinking, and Rossi's a pragmatist, but a little hope never hurt anyone.
J.J., for her part, is busying herself with putting away her handgun, prolonging the movement as much as she can, whiling away the seconds. She has no illusions that Hotch will round on her first, seeing as how she'd been the one to support him fully, and then turned around and backstabbed him. (Of course, she allows, that's how Hotch would see it; it's not how she does.)
Truthfully, she'd been as surprised as everyone else when she granted Dean her agreement. From the moment he walked in, she'd been determined to not only flat-out refuse him, but send his ass straight back to jail. She knew about Dean's charisma, had witnessed it first-hand (albeit at an incredibly subdued level; Dean wasn't exactly a Chatty Cathy back in Illinois), and so knew what to expect.
It was like being T-boned.
One minute, she's stoic media liaison, walls up, gun trained on Dean's insides that were as a result at her mercy, just waiting for one breath from him she didn't like which would award her the opportunity to fire. She'd wanted to shoot someone anyway, after all the aggravation the case brought; Dean was just a convenient, guilt-free target.
The next, Dean's words, the gentle but firm way he orated, the genuine rawness over Xander's death, everything, had her finger edging away from the trigger, her hands relaxing on the pistol, sights dropping. The worst part was that there was a nagging part of her brain that was telling her she was being manipulated—no, not manipulated, won over—but she'd, for some godforsaken reason, shut it out.
She's not overtly sure what sentence or expression of Dean's switched her allegiance, much less why. No, she admits, that's not true. It was Dean's imploring mention of Xander's age, the unintentional parallel to Henry. Dean didn't know she has a child, didn't know Hotch has a child, and yet J.J. the Mother latched onto Dean's sincere tone of anguished hatred for the monster that did this. It ached for anything that could put away the killer; it wasn't J.J. the FBI Agent, and so was far from rational.
All that part of her saw was a man with quite possibly the brains and intuition to help them, to help give a semblance of closure to a grieving mother, and by God, she wasn't going to compromise that. For all she knew—hell, at this point, it's the unfortunate reality—Dean would spook and go underground again. And since neither Victor Henricksen nor anyone who worked closely with him was around to decipher the late agent's notes (not to mention it'd been years since the Winchester investigation was closed), the probability of catching Dean again would be phenomenally low.
Especially…especially without Sam.
J.J. knows that Dean turned himself in back in 2010 because something happened to his brother—she still doesn't know what that is—but in his most recent arrival, she saw something she hadn't four years ago: life.
Admittedly, it didn't look as if Dean was about to go host a neighborhood barbecue, but there was light behind his eyes, there was a certain set to his shoulders, and something she couldn't quite place. She does know for sure, however, that he was much less…dead…than he was the last time they met. Then, it was like Dean was only helping them because he didn't have anything else to do, and it was at least something to prevent his brain from turning to mush.
Now, though, Dean had come to them, and, moreover, had told them that he'd be willing to go back to prison as soon as they solved the case. The logical, federal portion of her positively screamed that Dean had been a professional conman and that bending people to his will was part of his skills; but the illogical, trusting, spontaneous part of her whispered in her ear that maybe Dean wasn't as bad a dude as he was purported to be. Brought up the fact that he'd been the guy to crack that one case years ago.
And, stupidly, she'd listened to it. (Hell of a time to decide to acquiesce to the devil on her shoulder.) She found herself giving in just as her colleagues had one-by-one, and, surprisingly, had seen the relief in Dean's expression and in the "I am?" he'd asked her. The question was so simple, so childlike, as though he'd asked for an extra piece of pie and was granted one despite that it usually was against the rules.
She brings herself back to the present with a whiplash, forcing herself to stop dwelling on what is obviously the past. Dean's gone, gone to who knows where, and not only had they let him do it, but she knows each and every one of them in the room, sans Hotch, had half a mind to go after him. To say, "Dean! Wait up. Have you found something? Please tell us you can help." None of them had—cowards, that really, really annoying portion of her brain snickered—but had stayed with their unit chief, watched as Emily and then Morgan left.
Of course, it isn't as easy as it sounds. Considering that they just let their first potentially major big break walk straight out the door to places unknown.
Now, give her some credit: she isn't about to hand Dean a trophy for Man of the Year, and she's most certainly in favor of escorting him to prison. The addendum being, just as Dean had proposed, he help them break the case first. The unbreakable case. The nightmare-inducing case. The case whose victim list now includes a boy not even into puberty yet.
J.J. looks at Hotch steadily, waiting for his eyes to come to hers. Eventually they do, sliding over slowly, the motion implying it's taking everything for him to do just that. "Do you realize what we just did? What I just did?" Hotch asks lowly, the flatness of his voice edging on frightening.
"Sir—" tries Garcia, fingering one of her gaudy rings anxiously.
"I let a serial killer walk right out those doors," Hotch interrupts, staring at J.J. "The bastard broke out of prison, got into a police station undetected, then came into a room full of FBI agents like he owned the place. And what did I do? I let him go."
"I wouldn't say that," Rossi forwards, shifting in his chair. Hotch looks at him incredulously. A lesser man would have shied away, but Rossi's endured much more than a glare from Aaron Hotchner, however searing it may be. "Some part of you was thinking what we all were: that he might be able to provide insight into this. That's not exactly worthy of capital punishment, Aaron."
Hotch is having none of it, the deeply ingrained principles that were instilled in him from childhood abuse, cemented in law school, and maintained in the Agency at a forefront. While the others are in different stages of seeing the gray areas, Hotch is firmly set in the black and white opinion.
"I don't care that he helped us four years ago," seethes Hotch, attempting and not quite succeeding to keep his voice unnoticeable to the milling cops outside. "He didn't have anywhere to go; there was no reason not to help. Now, he's free, and he can give us whatever information he wants, whether it's true or not. Hell, he's probably working with the unsub, and we let him stride right out into the public again."
Garcia scowls like she'd taken personal offense. "All due respect, sir, I don't think that's fair," she pipes up tersely. "He might've been accused of crimes in the past, but I've been working with all of you for a while now, and didn't see any of your guys' telltale signs."
"You haven't had the best track record with sensing if pretty faces are homicidal or not," snaps Hotch before he realizes the implications of his words.
This time, Garcia flinches as harshly as though Hotch had literally punched her in the face. She'd never—never—thought he'd say such a thing, not to her, not after she'd been shot. She'd learned her lesson, thanks very much, and she hadn't thought in a million years they'd blame her for what Colby'd done. She blamed herself enough; they'd never passed judgment on her.
"I—you—how—" She can't string two words together, and so, not seeing any of her colleagues' now incensed faces, she pulls herself and her purse out of the chair and hurries out the door, curled hair bouncing.
Hotch runs a hand over his face, his eyes closed, like if he shut the colors away, he could pretend he'd never said that. Not to Garcia. Never her. He hears a couple chairs scraping, and then footsteps passing him, one set hovering for a second before leaving.
So he's surprised when he feels a tentative hand on his shoulder, the touch barely permeating his tailored suit. He opens his eyes to see J.J.'s taut but somehow concerned face looking intently at him.
"Hotch…" she starts, not completely sure where she was going with it.
"I know," he replies. "I know."
"No, you don't know," she objects hotly, for the immediacy not seeing her boss, but rather a man who'd just made a very, very ill decision. "Garcia was just trying to make a point—"
"What, that Dean Winchester is suddenly a good Samaritan with no ulterior motives whatsoever? J.J., come on."
J.J. shrugs, trying not to get angry. "No one said he didn't have ulterior motives," she qualifies. "Just that…well, so what if he does? If it means we can catch this guy…"
"When did our expertise and work become less than adequate?" Hotch challenges, daring her to say different.
She doesn't choose to mention that there'd been another time where they'd temporarily lost faith in their abilities and had to resort to other means. "When a little boy got murdered, that's when," she says instead. "Just pretend he isn't Dean Winchester, but just plain…Dean. An outside source that wants to catch this guy just as much as we do."
"Can't do that, J.J.," Hotch replies after a second. "I already let him walk out of here like the smug son of a bitch he is, and I'm sure as hell not going to ask for his help."
J.J. stares at him. "You're not even going to consider—"
"No!" Hotch interrupts sharply. "No, I'm not. You may have become indecisive on our abilities, but I haven't. I'm not going to go to a killer and admit that we, behavior analysts with the FBI, need his, a mentally deranged fugitive, assistance."
"What's changed?" J.J. asks, honestly curious. "Why'd you agree last time?"
Hotch pauses, dropping his shoulders. "Because…because then there was no one to answer to," he concedes. "Because then there wasn't a boy's mother to explain how we reach a conclusion."
"So you're just scared to tell her who we had to rely on, even if he's a convict?" J.J. clarifies stiffly. "She's not going to care, Hotch, not as long as we get the guy in the end. Trust me."
She's still not sure why she's defending Dean so much, to her superior, but every moment she's having more confidence; not in Dean necessarily, but in Emily and Morgan's determination. They're far from stupid or impulsive people, and so if they have enough trust in Dean to use him for this investigation, she figures the least the rest of them can do is give the guy a chance. Particularly given Dean's track record. (By which she means his track record for solving unsolvable cases, not, you know, the other stuff.)
"That," Hotch concedes, "and the fact that it isn't like Dean's safely in jail anymore. He busted out, stole God knows how many things, and strolled into a P.D. That isn't a good check on his record."
J.J. laughs despite herself. "Ever think why he escaped?" she prompts. Hotch doesn't answer; more because he wants to know what she thinks than what she expects him to say. "What if he escaped because he wanted to help so much but couldn't from where he was? You heard him—he said he saw my press conference. Obviously he brought something from it."
"It was just an excuse," says Hotch. "People like that, they'll use anything to get out of jail."
It's something J.J. can't really disagree with. In fact, a mere ten minutes ago, she was fully in Hotch's line of thinking. "I know that's how Dean profiles," she says. She's aware no one was actively profiling the man, but it was an idle reflex of all of them nonetheless. Granted, not like Dean was all that difficult to do so. Judging externally, anyway.
"I just think that there might be something else there. Morgan and Emily certainly seem to. Are you saying you're suddenly not trusting them?"
"Of course not," replies Hotch, legitimately offended. "But that doesn't mean I can't question their choices. It's understandable—we're all stressed, and they evidently felt this was the right direction to go in—but the farthest thing from how we should approach this investigation."
Pursing her lips, J.J. leans against the edge of the table. "Hotch, forgive me, but I'm not sure even you were heart-and-soul against this."
"Beg your pardon?"
"If you really wanted to stop him and send him back to prison, you could've. You had a gun on your, and even if you didn't, it didn't look like Dean had all intention to bolt," she says. "But you didn't move."
"It…was a moment of weakness."
J.J. laughs, even though the circumstances are anything but funny. "Whatever," she replies. It's pretty obvious she's not convincing Hotch anytime soon. "We won't go after him if that's what you want. But if another person dies and Dean might've been able to help but we didn't consider talking to him…"
"J.J.," Hotch says in surprise. She'd rarely spoken against him so candidly, and he definitely is not a fan of the new behavior. "Don't. if anything, Dean would've hindered this whole thing. We're much better off without his input."
J.J. throws up her hands in defeat. Ultimately, regardless of how much anyone may not like it, it's Hotch's call. "Fine, we'll do it your way," she sighs.
Shooting a look at him, of which neither is absolutely positive the content, J.J. then departs the room, leaving Hotch alone to wonder just how the hell Dean had, in a measly two minutes, managed to turn his entire team against him.

Sunny Shores Restaurant
Manistique, Michigan
"So how should we do this?" Emily asks Morgan across the table, fiddling with the straw in her water as they wait for their breakfasts.
She hadn't wanted to stop, just wanted to forge ahead, but Morgan's stomach had made the decision (in spite of his "Of course that's what a diner in this town would be called."), and they chose the only restaurant-ish abode in the place. The waitress was nice, if kind of nosy—seemed like everyone knew about the investigation—but after they made it clear, in as kind terms as they could, that they wouldn't tell her anything, she bustled away with their orders for the chef's special.
They still aren't quite able to figure out just what the "chef's special" is, but Nadine the waitress assured them it was to die for, and when in Rome, right?
"You mean, how do we find an experienced criminal in a maze of Midwest byways that we don't know from a hole in the wall but he does?"
"If you're going to be so negative, go back to Hotch," Emily snits irritatedly.
Morgan raises an eyebrow. "Speaking of Hotch…"
Emily puts her head on the table with a dull clunk. "Ugh, don't remind me," she mutters miserably.
Chuckling, Morgan sips his coffee. "Aww, don't be so hard on yourself, Prentiss," he says lightly. "I'm almost eighty percent sure your ass won't get fired faster than this town can be driven through."
Without looking up, Emily dips her fingers into her water and flicks the droplets at him. "Not. Helping," she grumbles.
Luckily, Morgan's spared from answering—and, more importantly, choosing an answer that wouldn't cause him to get himself skewered—by the diner doors opening to reveal not just Garcia, but Reid and an only somewhat reluctant Rossi. Morgan shoves Emily's elbow, and she snaps her head up, ready to chuck the salt shaker at him, when she catches sight of her three co-workers.
"What are you doing here?" she asks, any ire she might have held overshadowed by her astoundment.
Rossi looks faintly amused by Reid's squirming (Garcia not so much, since she'd known about Dean virtually from the get-go), and accepts the role of de facto spokesman. "Turns out we're all suffering a psychotic break and so are willing enough to help you find him."
"Dean," Emily says reflexively. "It's not going to kill you to say his name."
"Testy, isn't she?" Rossi comments to Morgan.
Who holds his hands up defensively. "Don't look at me, man," he says. "I like my body intact."
Emily glares, but to Morgan's relief, her gun remains securely in its holster. "What changed your minds?" she inquires to Rossi and Reid. Garcia, she notices, is uncharacteristically silent and has a poorly-hidden expression of hurt on her face, but Emily gathers that this is neither the time nor the place to bring whatever it is up. "Would've thought you both would be behind Hotch on this. You know, Dean's being a serial killer of his own and all."
Rossi shrugs, the movement more casual than normal, and which causes Emily suspicion. "You backed me when I said I could use my 'contacts' to solve a case, and they weren't exactly orthodox," he says. "Least I can do is return the favor."
"Not that I'm not grateful, but you gave that favor to me four years ago."
"I'd take what I can get if I were you," warns Morgan.
To deaf ears, Emily not remotely acknowledging that he'd spoken. "Call it a…call it that I'm betting on the long shot—incredibly shady long shot—here."
Emily thinks about objecting to that, but truthfully, he's right on target. Even she isn't showing Dean all her cards, so to speak. "So…you really want to undermine Hotch—probably J.J. as well—just to gamble on the 'shady long shot'?"
This time Reid gives his position. "Murderers are the best profilers," he recites, the phrase being one they'd all used on more than one occasion. "I'm betting Dean's as good a poster child as any."
Emily gestures next to herself and her partner. "We could use some new ideas," she allows.
As Rossi starts to speak, Emily and Morgan look at each other, their faces saying nothing, but both thinking the same:
This might maybe just work out…
April 12, 2017, 10:45 A.M.
Manistique, Michigan
Dean parks just off U.S. 2, finding as obscure a spot as he can, and starts hiking in, despite himself relishing the stringent but clear some-sort-of-tree-scented air. The address being in Xander's file Dean makes his way down Cattaraugus Street to search out the house. Given that Manistique is no N.Y.C., he aims to use the same alias, not wanting to risk a "Hey…aren't you…?" situation.
Dean almost misses it, the house nestled behind some bushes and the street number in faded letters on the beaten mailbox. Having left everything but the stats sheet in the Jeep, Dean checks the address to be sure, and then tucks the sheet into his jacket.
He walks through the low gate and up the steps, ringing the doorbell. It takes longer than Dean would've expected for the door to be opened, during which time he perfects his bereaved best-friend-of-Kari façade. Simon Kirke, he remembers at the last second.
"Can I help you?" comes the greeting, a woman who Dean'd place mid-thirties leaning against the door like it's the only thing holding her up.
He'd expected the grandmother, since the overheard police report had said Xander was staying with her, but he assumes the mother—wherever she'd been—had returned immediately. Not that Dean is assigning blame.
Which makes him almost reassess the manipulation when he sees her. She looks frail, even though Dean's sure she's normally of healthy structure, her hair mousy and lank, eyes sunken and gray. Even if he hadn't known who she was, he would have immediately pegged her as a mother who'd lost a child. Heaven knows Dean's seen enough of them to know the type.
"Yes, ma'am, I'm Simon. Simon Kirke," he says, by pure reflex making his voice less hard and gravelly than usual. "I'm—I mean, I…was—Kari Jansen's best friend."
The woman frowns briefly in confusion before recollection enters her expression. "Oh," she says flatly. "Yes. She's the one before…before…"
Dean nods, unable to be so inhumane as to force her to say her deceased son's name. "I was…I was wondering if could talk to you," he says, slathering on some timidity.
"About what?" she asks, a veil of suspicion rising.
Even though it was already soldered, Dean amps up what Sam had once termed the "Look-how-cute-and-innocent-and-not-smartassy-I-am-come-hug-me" expression. Dean hadn't appreciated the name—Sam had had a colorful bruise on his bicep for two days—but apparently it was true enough, because it'd had a ninety-nine percent success rate.
"I don't know," he says softly. "I guess I was just hoping that there might be something that…that Kari and your son had in common to…to figure out what monster could be doing this."
The woman's suspicion increases, and Dean silently curses Sam. "You're a cop, aren't you?"
Dean shakes his head. "No, ma'am," he replies. "'M just Kari's friend. God, was Kari's friend…"
Dean looks down at her, and takes back his Damn it, Sam! thought when she opens the door a little wider, allowing him entrance. "Come in," she says with a sigh. Stepping onto the foyer carpet, the woman holds out her hand. "I'm Jenelle. Nathanson."
Dean shakes it gently, and rubs the back of his neck. (So he hadn't thought this entirely through—sue him.) Jenelle retreats into what Dean assumes is the living room, and returns with a dark wood picture frame. After a moment's hesitation, she passes it to Dean, who takes it with genuine surprise.
He stares at it, and tries not to make his reaction too strong as he looks at the recent photo of Xander. The boy's covered head-to-toe in mud but grinning widely, the same dog Dean'd seen in the other picture at his feet, tail mid-wag, and a slightly deflated soccer ball in its mouth.
Dean hands it back to Jenelle reverently. "Bet he liked the dog a lot, huh?"
Jenelle's mouth turns upwards the tiniest bit. "Yeah," she affirms. "He loved that damn mutt."
"What happened to it?" Dean asks, despite himself. Everything he'd ever heard and experienced about Labs said they were always right at the door when it was knocked on or rung.
Even the small smile Jenelle had given now drops. "Up in X—in—in his room," she says, once more unable to say Xander's name. "Hasn't left there since—he won't eat or drink, or anything. My husband called the vet. Supposed to be here tomorrow."
Dean gets the sense that she'd keep on about the dog if he doesn't stop her now, and while in the past, he and Sam would latch onto small talk like that to establish a connection with the person, he doesn't have the time now. Besides, he doesn't have to be a vet to know the dog is Little Ann personified. (Just, hopefully, with a better outcome.)
He hands Jenelle back the frame, and she receives it gratefully. Then she takes a look at Dean, as if she'd never actually realized she was talking to someone. "You're not from around here, are you?" she asks.
Dean shifts uncomfortably. "No, ma'am," he replies. "I'm from Independence. What, uh—I mean, am I that obvious?"
Had the situation been anything else, Jenelle would have chuckled. As it is… "Everyone 'round here dresses a certain way, holds 'emselves a certain way. You don't."
Looking at himself, Dean takes in his jeans, boots, plain gray tee shirt and green jacket with perplexity. Jenelle takes pity on him—even given everything—and tugs at the jacket and shirt.
"It's either plaid or hunting gear in the U.P.," she says. "You stand out."
"Guess the saleswoman did have it in for me then," comments Dean, making a mental note to give Emily a big "I told you so." (Which he then immediately recounts, since if the FBI doesn't want his help, then by God, he won't give it to them.)
Jenelle sends a strange side smile. "I wouldn't say that," she remarks. "I'm sure Amelia simply thought you would look better in these."
It takes Dean a second before he gets Jenelle's meaning, and he straightens his shoulders. "She always like that?" he asks, thinking of the saleswoman who was, to put it plainly, quite handsy. Granted, ten years ago, he would have welcomed it, but…the Apocalypse…and then Sam…whatever meager flirting he may have done wasn't remotely sincere. Dean knows what Sam would say if he saw him now, but that's moot right now.
Sam's gone. And he ain't coming back. The sooner he accepts that, the better.
(It's what he tells himself, anyhow.)
"Local boys don't seem to mind," answers Jenelle. She pauses, and studies Dean's face. "You don't look like you've slept for weeks, Simon."
Dean starts to answer, then gets an idea—albeit one that makes him cringe at the sleaziness of it. "Yeah, I've been havin' nightmares for a while," he replies. It's not entirely false, but not the truth, either. He's had nightmares, but not nightmares. (In the past few days.)
Jenelle nods, like she knows exactly what Dean's talking about. Which, Dean concedes, she probably does. "I'm afraid to sleep," she admits, folding her arms around herself. "Especially since…since his grandmother said he was having them right before…I just…I feel like…"
"Like having them would make you weak," Dean finishes, having felt the exact same thing. Whether it was with the dog on his bed, or whether he had a bed to himself, he'd always withheld his nightmares. Or, well, as much as he could. He never could risk tarnishing his invincible cover with Sam. And, for the most part, he'd always been effective. Until he came back from Hell, but that's really neither here nor there.
Jenelle looks at him curiously, but doesn't comment on how Dean can relate. "Yes," she affirms.
Then Dean remembers the other part of her statement. About Xander having had nightmares also before he died. As had Kari. Now, everyone has bad dreams, but…Dean's skepticism and hunter instincts kick in with full force.
"Did she happen to say what they were about?" he asks nonchalantly.
Jenelle shakes her head. "Not really," she says. "Just that they were really, really bad. I didn't think…"
Dean hastens to put a hand on her forearm. "It's not your fault," he says. "None of this is."
She looks as if she's going to cry, which Dean takes as a cue for him to leave. "I'm sorry for intruding, ma'am," he says. "I should go."
"You—you can s-stay, I'm s-sorry for—"
She shrugs (though it could have just been a sob). "I sent X-X-Xander's grandmother away," she explains. "I wanted to deal by m-myself, and…you kind of remind me of-of him."
Dean doesn't bother to hide his surprise as his eyebrows shoot up. "Of Xander?" he asks in shock.
Jenelle's lip trembles, but it's a "yes," Dean sees that much. "You just seem so much…"
Dean feels himself being sucked in, which he knows he can't allow. "I should be heading back to Independence," he lies. "I've done enough damage here."
He heads towards the door, but then stops. Through the front window, he sees two black SUVs drive up, and some very familiar people inside. Oh, shit… he curses in his head.
"Even just an hour?" he hears behind him, and he turns, Jenelle's face tear-streaked and red.
Feeling awful, but seeing the SUVs park, he feels his heart clench in self-hatred. "Maybe a short rest before I hit the highway," he says quietly.
Jenelle nods, her lip between her teeth, and points upstairs. "There's a guest room second door on the right. Please…stay as long as you c—need…"
Dean knows she's just acting out of grief, and that what he's doing is astonishingly inappropriate, but he hears the FBI's footsteps, and he's out of time. Putting his hand briefly on Jenelle's shoulder and giving her a quick but completely sincere thank-you, he takes the stairs three at a time, only pausing for a second when he sees what must have been Xander's room on the left, wholly untouched.
Sighing, he rushes into the room Jenelle had described, and shuts the door just as the front one opens.
"No man, for any considerable period, can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true."

- Hi Jason (and all members of the Fra Diavolo Group),
We apolgise that it has been so long since we have been in contact,
but we have been through a really rough period just lately. We hope
you will understand.
Just to remind you we are an English family now permanently living
here in Itri, Italy.
Louise's father was quite poorly, suffering from heart problems and
kidney failure. We nursed him here at home in Itri, which included
daily dialysis treatments, except for periods when he was admitted to
hospital. Sadly his condition steadily deteriorated and he died here
at "Tre Cancelle" at the end of March 2008. We are gradually coming
to terms with losing him. Louise also lost her mother, here in
Italy, 2 years ago.
So now it is just the 2 of us.
We have lots of work to catch up on, which we were unable to do
whilst caring for Dad. We are busy trying to tidy up the olive grove
(between 500 and 600 trees) but there is so much of it, we will have
to do it in stages. We have 2 olive workers who are currently
helping to teach Paul how to prune the trees to get them back into
shape and hopefully back into full production.
Plus we are busy with guests, this year we are doing quite well with
bookings here at "Tre Cancelle"
Currently we have some family staying with us, and yesterday we took
them to Atina (Frosinone) to see the place where their Italian
ancestors were born and to meet the family living there for the first
time. Louise's grandparents left Atina in 1911 and settled
in "Little Italy" in Clerkenwell, London.
So yesterday was quite a day! There was also a procession as it was
the feast of Corpus Domini and the cobble stone roads were decorated
with carpets of flowers. Here in Itri there was also
the "Infioriata".
Well, regarding the Baptism records for the Itri Church of San
Michele Arcangelo (1761 to 1788).
As we have mentioned before, things in Italy more often than not move
very slowly. Things cannot be rushed !!!
This morning, one of our friends managed to organise an appointment
to meet Don Mario at the church and talk to him about the above
Baptism records.
We told him about the Fra Diavolo Group on the internet, and that
Jason Soccia had visited him in 2002.
He showed us the ancient register which consists of several hundred
pages. He said that we would have to talk to the present Parish
Priest, Don Alfredo, about obtaining permission to take digital
photos of the register. Don Mario is now retired, so it would
definitely have to be approved by Don Alfredo and possibly other
members of the clergy. Don Mario is well into his 80's and is rather
frail, but seems to be a very kind man.
We think it would be helpful if perhaps Jason Soccia or someone
representing the Fra Diavolo Group were to personally write a letter
to Don Alfredo, explaining about the Fra Diavolo Group and
researching ancestors from Itri, and asking if it might be possible
to digitally record this register.
You would need to make clear the motive for doing this, explaining
that it would be for no financial gain. I think you will need to
tread carefully, and be very couteous and polite.
If you are unable to write the letter in Italian, we can try to help
you translate it. Then we will try to organise an appointment to see
him and pass on your letter etc.
Once again, we would be only to pleased to help with photographing
the register, if it meets with Don Alfredo's approval.
We are sorry that these things are not easy, and take time, but will
try to help you as best we can.
Patienza !!!
Very best wishes

Floyd Cardoz, "Floyd Cardoz: Flavorwalla: Big Flavor. Bold Spices. A New Way to Cook the Foods You Love."
English | ISBN: 1579656218 | 2016 | PDF | 352 pages | 34,2 MB
From the Winner of Top Chef Masters
œA fun, fresh, and inspiring collection that deserves room on any self-respecting home cooks bookshelf.
"Publishers Weekly, starred review
At his many successful restaurants, including New York Citys famed Tabla, Floyd Cardoz built a name for himself by bringing extraordinary flavors to everyday foods and using spice to turn a dish into something distinct and memorable. In Floyd Cardoz: Flavorwalla, readers will learn how Cardoz amplifies the flavors in more than 100 recipes. The simple addition of mustard seed and lemon makes grilled asparagus a revelation; slow-cooking salmon with fennel and coriander takes it to another level. But this husband and dad has the same challenges we do when cooking for our families, for guests, and for special occasions. Here he presents the recipes he cooks at home, where even the humblest of ingredients"such as eggs, steak, and vegetables"benefit from his nuanced use of spice and simple yet impeccable techniques, making this book an indispensable resource for getting weeknight dinners on the table or for cooking a holiday meal. The standout recipes include Grilled Lamb Shanks with Salsa Verde; Shrimp with Spicy Tomato Sauce; Coconut Basmati Pilaf; Roasted Cauliflower with Candied Ginger, Pine Nuts, and Raisins; and Cardozs Tamarind Margaritas, of course.

How to find a writing style that works for you
With National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) just days away, here's an excerpt from How to Write a Novel: 47 Rules for Writing a Stupendously Awesome Novel That You Will Love Forever, on sale now!
Rule #3: Find the writing style that works for you
I've always been fascinated by other writers' creative processes. When I first decided I wanted to be a writer, I studied. I observed. I felt that if only I could divine some common thread in the creative lives of the writers I admired, I would then be able to emulate these individuals and be as good as they were.
Going to an Ivy League school and marrying a socialite worked for Fitzgerald, but should I do that?
Volunteering for wars in exotic locales worked for Hemingway, but should I do that?
Drinking and drugging themselves into oblivion worked for most of the writers of the Western canon . . . but do I really have to do that?
Even apart from biography, I delved into the writing process itself. Did they lock themselves in a room? Did they outline? Did they write stream of consciousness?
How did they do it?
Then, after college, I had the good fortune of working for a literary agency, where I had the opportunity to closely observe the habits of some incredibly successful writers, many of whom I had admired since childhood.
And I discovered this: there is no single way to write a novel. There's not much of a common thread that links great writers. The only thing they have in common is that they somehow, at the end of the day, find a way to get the words onto the page.
Yes, this may seem like odd wisdom in a book that claims to tell you how to write a novel, but it's true. There isn't one way to write a novel. There isn't a formula.
Now, before you scurry for a refund and write a nasty review, please trust that this guide will most definitely help to steer you in the right direction. I will help you avoid the pitfalls, and I will help you channel your innate tree-killing thirst, you ritual destroyer of trees at the altar of books.
But you have to figure out how you write best.
Po Bronson writes in a closet. Hemingway wrote standing up. Vikram Seth once told me he traveled to India and intentionally stayed on U.S. time because the disorientation of jet lag helped his creativity.
Are you an outliner? Are you a seat-of-the-pantser? Do you need peace and quiet? Noise? Do you need to write in a cafe? Would you rather work in a closet? Do you want to write on a computer? A typewriter? Pen and ink? Do you want to write quickly and revise a thousand times? Write a near-perfect first draft slowly? Do you want to write every day? Only on weekends? Do you want to stay up late and burn through fifty pages? Do you want to write during the daylight hours and agonize over five words at a time?
It's all completely up to you. There are no common threads shared by great writers other than hard work and talent.
Even the ages at which authors become awesome varies tremendously. Some start young and flame out. Some people arrive at writing late. Some start young and work at it for years before achieving a breakthrough.
I hope you are absorbing the enormous freedom presented in this chapter. Let me say it again: there is no single way to write a novel. You don't have to be constrained by the styles of other people. Don't let other writers get in your head, and don't let anyone tell you that you're doing it wrong.
You don't have to force yourself to outline if you don't want to. You don't have to write every day. (You hear me? You don't have to write every day. I certainly don't.) You don't have to love every moment of writing. You don't have to find it all agonizing drudgery, either.
You just have to be yourself and find what works for you.
All that being said, it is beneficial to be aware of what kind of writer you are because it will allow you to develop a writing rhythm, which will help you feel normal and comfortable, and it will help you to better enforce this rhythm when your attention starts to wander. Whatever style you adopt, you must be diligent and productive.
While everyone is different, every writer falls somewhere on the spectrum between total planners and total improvisers.
The planners outline, plot everything in advance, choose their words carefully, and tend to write a little slow. They go into the writing process with a pretty clear idea of where they're going. But when they're finished, they usually (but not always) have less revision time waiting for them.
The improvisers go in blind, let their instincts guide them, move through quickly, and might not even know where their novel is going until page fifty. They write and write and write until they find the story, and the mere notion of planning everything would stunt their creativity. When they're finished with a draft, they usually (but not always) have a lot of work to do, as they must go back, rewrite everything, and stitch it all back together.
A lot of people are somewhere in the middle. And everyone is doing just fine.
So if you're a planner, just know that it's okay if you move slowly. It's okay that you feel as if you're plodding along, even if your improviser friends have written whole novels while taking a bath.
If you're an improviser, just know that it's okay if you don't know exactly where things are going all the time. It's okay to write in terrific bursts of energy and just get it all on the page, even if it doesn't all make sense or fit together at first. You can trust that you'll figure it all out.
Don't let other people control your writing style or make you feel inferior because of the way you go about it.
As long as you're getting words on the page, you're doing just fine.

This helps me feel better about my own process of writing furiously about 3 days a month and then doing nothing for a long time!
But, hey there, I'm kinda protective of Zelda. Was she really a psychopath? Maybe just manic sometimes (part of that pesky mental illness Bi-Polar Disorder) and spirited, creative, and married to an alcoholic. OK. OK. I'm being touchy.
But all of your advice is seriously awesomeness slathered in awesomesauce.

Meant that as hyperbole! I don't think she was really a psychopath. Sorry if that didn't come through, I should probably change that.
- October 30, 2013 at 12:24 PM

I accept your explanation. Hyperbole it is. I might be dense today (and many days).

Wonderful excerpt! I have a huge house with rooms I never use and I write in the unfinished part of my basement because I have no distractions and that's where I feel the most comfortable and creative...sigh :)
At first, though, I thought you would get into writing style in a more literal sense. I often see readers slam good books in reviews because they don't understand writing styles. In other words, romance readers who tend to get used to over-written narrative with too many adverbs and said bookisms, don't get it when they read a tight novel that practices word economy. And as an end result they wind up reviewing books poorly because they don't know the difference between writing styles...or what many would consider bad writing. I know that's off topic, but I thought I'd mention it in case anyone else ever experienced that.
I'm also hoping you have a chapter on topics like this...said booksisms, bad dialogue tags, etc... so we can use these examples as points of reference.

- Ryan Morris said...
Definitely in the planner category. I think about pretty much everything before I write it. And it's a lot of that "awake in bed with novel on the brain" type thinking. Night after night after night.
It's true though that when I've finished my manuscript it already feels as though it's been through the editing stage. I may move some chapters/scenes around and adjust a bunch of dialogue, but everything is basically there.
It works for me!
- October 30, 2013 at 1:34 PM
- Jamie said...
This is a great post! Really it's great advice for pretty much all things in life - it doesn't matter who you are or how you do things - find your groove and be diligent and productive..... look you've found the secret of life!!!
- October 31, 2013 at 11:27 AM
- Abigail Cossette said...
Loved this excerpt! Need to find someone with a kindle to buy it! I definitely fly by the seat of my pants. I typically know how the story ends, and maybe a thing or two in the middle, but everything else is usually a surprise. If I get stuck for a while I'll brainstorm a plan but then everything changes once I start putting the plan into effect.
And thanks for the "you don't have to write every day" thing, it's a freeing reminder.
- October 31, 2013 at 12:59 PM
"Do it & do your own thing" is what my mentor said to me - though it took me a while to really 'get it' - and it's good to be regularly reminded, so, Thanks Nathan.
good point made above re writing styles.

For me, it doesn't matter how it is being written. The more important for me is the uniqueness of the content and the quality of it. Thanks for this useful article.

I totally agree. You should love what you're doing, feel happy doing it and also be confident about it.

Not sure how much zone layout has been described, but I can't seem to find much about it and leaks are against the rules here.
I am hoping that zone lines are wide, unlike some other MMOs I have played, FFXI in particular.
I think surrounding every zone with mountains with a few passes through them to funnel players along is somewhat contrived, and unnecessary at this point.
A zone going from a forest land to a prarie should not have to be a single narrow pass through a mountain range.
The zone between the eastern and western halves of a forest shouldn't either.
There should be a zoneline from sea to shining sea, if there have to be zone lines at all.
I mean, SWG was in my opinion a vastly inferior game, but each world was completely open.
City flowed to field flowed to sea flowed to mountain.
FFXIV is many many times more graphically intense, so zonelines may be required to limit pop-in of textural elements, but I hope they have come up something better than the "this mountain pass funnels you from point A to point B even though they are halves of the same prarie"

After a procedure is completed will you wake up instantly?
Doctor Answers 4
Anesthesia with BBL
You should wake up from anesthesia as soon as your surgical procedure is complete. Some times you can remain sleepy for a few hours afterwards and not remember much as the anesthetic is wearing off.

After a procedure is completed will you wake up instantly?
Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.... No my dear. It will take a few hours before you wake up, dont be scared!!
Procedure and anesthesia
How quickly one wakes up from surgery really depends upon many factors including the length of surgery, their overall medical condition, the length of the procedure, their core body temperature, etc.. With the newer meds that have been used over the past 15 or so years, most patients wake up quicker, with less nausea than ever before.

How long does it take to wake up after surgery?
How long you stay asleep after a surgery depends on many factors including the length of your surgery, your weight, and the preferences of the anesthesia staff where you have you surgery, amongst others. A Brazilian Butt Lift takes anywhere from 1 1/2 to upwards of 3 hours, depending on the number of areas you take fat from and how much fat you transfer, so this will determine how long it takes for you to emerge from anesthesia after a case. Patients undergoing outpatient procedures typically "wake up" (as in open eyes, respond to commands) within 1 hour after surgery, but this is highly variable. The surgical staff will keep you as long as it takes for you to wake up after surgery regardless!

The Repurposed and Upcycled Life: When God Turns Trash to Treasure
Life is frustrating sometimes. It can be hard and ugly. Hurt, frustration and regret can make everything seem hopeless. But, God has a plan for everything in our lives. He offers unconditional love and grace, despite our imperfections. He offers hope where we see only despair.
Discover the repurposed and upcycled life. This is a life where no experience is wasted. Like the best trash–to–treasure decorating project, it's a life where God repurposes our junky experiences. It's where he upcycles—turns hopeless situations into something so much better than we ever imagined—when we let him work with the trash. When we surrender to his leading, God demonstrates his creativity in revealing how our greatest disappointments, mistakes, and painful experiences can be priceless treasures.
Through humor and stories, Michelle Rayburn addresses how to unpack emotional baggage and let go of the past. Readers will learn how to confront perfectionism and negative attitudes, change perspective on circumstances, and let go of regret and shame. It's an opportunity to learn how to build positive healthy relationships, and dream big and live with purpose. Through inspiration from God's Word and examples from everyday life, readers will discover the joy–filled, hope–rich way of viewing their past, present, and future.
About the Author
Michelle wants to help you connect the dots between faith, creativity, and everyday life and discover the joy of finding God in the most unexpected places. Years ago, she left her career as a registered nurse to raise her family, and along the way, she discovered her true passion for writing, speaking, and singing.
Along that path of discovery, she tried many side ventures, including: a wedding coordinator, rubber stamp demonstrator, custom painter and decorator, craft instructor, craft seller, and web designer. Pile on her hobbies as a quilter, scrapbooker, and avid reader, and that's a lot of dots to connect! For the sake of sanity, she has exchanged most of those roles for the thrill of putting words on paper.
Michelle lives in an unusual home that was formerly a little country church with a parsonage attached. The church half of it is a hundred years old, and the rest is gradually coming out of the dreadful 50s and 70s decor with ongoing updates and renovation. She loves trash-to-treasure decorating and has filled her home with creative makeovers of "junk."
As a wife and a mom of two boys, Michelle's hidden motive as a speaker for women's events is the welcome escape from the testosterone zone to get a good dose of estrogen and female companionship.

Washington Post Staff Writer
Wednesday, April 13, 2005; Page B01
A 33-year-old Australian man who was tackled in a standoff with police at the U.S. Capitol on Monday will be deported, and no criminal charges will be filed against him, authorities said yesterday.
Allan Doody, special agent in charge of the Washington field office for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said Wenhao Zhao will be sent back to Australia in the coming days. Doody said Zhao violated the terms of his visit, but he declined to elaborate, citing U.S. privacy rules.
Zhao arrived in the United States on Friday as a tourist under a program that allows citizens of nearly 30 U.S. allies to enter the country without obtaining a visa, authorities said. A spokesman for the Australian Embassy said consular officials spoke with Zhao yesterday morning at an immigration facility. A spokeswoman for Australia's foreign affairs department, reached last night in Canberra, said Zhao had "declined consular assistance."
Zhao prompted an hour-long standoff with police after he rolled two suitcases up to a fountain on the west side of the Capitol. Police officers grew suspicious of his actions and questioned him, but Zhao would not cooperate and requested a meeting with the president, authorities said.
An hour later, heavily armed officers tackled Zhao, and bomb squad technicians blew apart one of his bags. The incident lasted three hours, delayed public tours at the Capitol and diverted traffic.
Capitol Police Chief Terrance W. Gainer said at a news conference Monday that police intended to charge Zhao with disorderly conduct for refusing to cooperate and obey police officers.
But Gainer said yesterday that investigators changed their minds after interrogating him. They believe that Zhao might have mental problems because he was not making much sense during the questioning, Gainer said. "He didn't seem to be in full control of his faculties," he said. "Most of what he was saying was nonsensical."
During interrogations, Zhao also reiterated his request to see the president or said police could kill him, Gainer said. He also told police that they would understand his actions in a week, Gainer said, adding that he attached no particular importance to that statement. Police and federal authorities said they do not believe that Zhao is a terrorist or that he was plotting to hurt anyone.
Police found nothing suspicious in Zhao's past or in his bags. After questioning, investigators sent Zhao for observation, and doctors who evaluated him declined to admit him, Gainer said.
He said Capitol Police then turned Zhao over to immigration authorities for deportation. Gainer said he thought that deportation was an appropriate penalty because officers did not believe that Zhao was mentally competent for prosecution.
Police and federal investigators traced Zhao's movements since he entered the United States through Los Angeles on Friday. He was believed to be in the District over the weekend, authorities said.
Law enforcement officials said investigators visited hotels where they understood he might have stayed but were unable to determine where he spent his time. They said Zhao was born in China and became an Australian citizen a year ago.
Authorities said it was unlikely that Zhao would be allowed to reenter the country. They said that he would have to request a visa to return and that if he attempted to enter again under the waiver program, he would be refused entry.
Staff writers Allan Lengel and Martin Weil contributed to this report.

"When Southern style has been recalled/recollected there were always polarities that would emerge. It was either highbrow elegance (white linen and shaded porches), or working-lass grit and guts that had its own powerful draw. What is wonderful now about our modern style is that those polarities are swirled together in a way that is very real and earthy, yet elegant at the same time."

I'm using LogonStudio in Windows 7 and it works just fine, except for one thing: it won't add any additional screens. It loads a few default ones and won't add anything else.

Stitch is a young Black Lab mix with a passion for fetch! He is smart and loves to learn...as long as you have a ball in your hand, Stitch will do anything for you. He is housetrained with a schedule, crates for the workday, knows what is appropriate to chew/what isn't, and minds his manners in the house well as long as he gets plenty of exercise. Stitch's biggest hurdle to adoption...he was run over by his owners as a puppy causing a broken hip that's been repaired with FHO surgery but also loss of bladder control. He can only hold his bladder about 4-5 hours max so needs a home with a doggy door, an outdoor setup, or a home willing and able to accommodate his potty needs. Stitch is excellent with other larger dogs, not good with kitties (he thinks they're fun to chase), and better with older kids who can take a role in his training. He would do best in a home who will show him firmly but lovingly that they are the boss otherwise he tries to test the limits a bit (typical teenager!). Stitch wants nothing more than to be loved. He loves to snuggle up on the couch, loves his people, and his favorite place after a nice long game of fetch is right by his foster mom's feet. He is a loving, smart, social Lab who has been waiting for a home for far too long.
Requirements: No cats. No young kids.
You can email firstname.lastname@example.com with questions and for a preadopt application. This dog has been spayed/neutered, vaccinated as age appropriate, tested for heartworm disease if age appropriate, and dewormed.
We rescue all types of dogs, ranging from small to large breeds. Roughly 40% of the dogs we rescue are purebred while the other 60% are mixed breeds. We will tell you about each dog's history, personality, & behavior, including whether or not they are good which children and other pets, their exercise needs, & other important information.
Fosters can provide you with a preadopt application. We read through the application, check references, and once approved (we aim for 24-48 hours to approve or deny), we set up a visit with you and the foster home or direct you to an adoption event to meet the dog(s). Fosters are more than happy to answer questions that arise. We all want a good match the first time, and a successful experience for the adopter and the dog.
After meeting, you can choose to outright adopt, or do a foster to adopt, where you complete an extra form and gain a 1-2 week period to see how the dog adjusts, and if the fit between the dog and your home is right. We encourage adopters to give it a MINIMUM of 3 days. Returning a dog before that period means it never had a chance to settle in and show you what the true personality is like. Moving dogs between homes is stressful and not in the dog's best interests. We are here to support you after adoption also, answering questions and helping make the process as positive as we can. We highly recommend you read the tips in this packet (Adopting 101) before bringing your new dog home...it will help greatly ease the transition and make it a positive experience for everyone!
Most of our adoption fees are in the $300-350 range, but range from a donation in special circumstances to a higher fee for a highly adoptable, vetted, healthy puppy to help offset the losses of our hardship case dogs.
All dogs and puppies have been spayed/neutered, dewomed, vaccinated, and micro-chipped upon adoption. In addition, adult dogs are tested for heartworm and tick diseases. Because we provide a number of special procedures such as parvo treatments when needed, dentals, surgeries, treatment for heartworm and Lyme disease, mange, and so on we spread the cost of these special treatments among all of the dogs in our program. Minnesota state sales tax is assessed, collected, and paid on each adoption.
From time to time we're asked "Why are your adoption fees so high?" Heading Home K9 rescue was formed to be able to help the neediest of strays... the seniors, the heartworm positive, the ones needing surgeries, and the ones often passed by with other rescues. These costs to support our mission are spread out between all dogs in the rescue so we can stay afloat. Besides medical fees, we also have to pay to feed the dogs and buy crates as needed. We work hard to make a match for appropriate adopters and have some options to work with payments by post dated check in some exceptional cases, but otherwise require an adoption fee and signed contract at time of adoption.
Thank You!
Your message has been sent to Heading Home K9 Rescue.

text: TonyBet Sportsbook addresses payout complaint By SBR Tuesday, February 23, 2016 Share with: Sportsbook Review reported two weeks ago about a TonyBet Sportsbook (SBR rating D) player who filed a $2,024 payout complaint. The player had deposited $200 and received a 50% cash bonus from the online betting site. After making a payout request with the Estonia based sportsbook, the player reported all communication stopped. TonyBet management clarified to SBR that the player had not yet completed the Know Your Customer (KYC) process, though the player believed otherwise when filing the SBR complaint. SBR was told that the verification process was since completed and that the player should receive payment within a few days. TonyBet was added to the online sportsbooks rating guide in June of 2015. The betting site was temporarily downgraded to the blacklist last fall after a number of complaints were received from players, though management later addressed the cases with SBR. TonyBet players in need of assistance are asked to submit a sportsbook complaint form.

I like challenges because i get bored very easily.I am very happy for my friend, Violet. She is embarking on a very exciting journey, doing something that is totally unrelated to what she had been studying and learning.I am excited for her because i know that she is one that really strive for things that she wants to accomplish in life and she will persevere till the end.
Do i enjoy what i do?Well, yes and no. Yes because i have been learning about drugs and tablets for the seventh year now. No, because i am getting quite bored.Bored because i am looking for challenges, for unexpected and unpredictable events to happen.I think i am dreaming and being too idealistic. The reality is, (i think), no matter how interesting a job is,if i do it everyday , it will not be as interesting.I might be wrong...but somehow, i think i will not be a pharmacist for the whole of my life.. i am still searching.. for something ... which i do not know at present.Maybe when time comes, i will do something totally different. I was thinking about it today... one thing that came to my mind was being a missionary/pastor.I think that is really challenging.. and there is no end to that.
By the end of the day, i think life is a journey, of becoming.. always with a -ing.Therefore, i always remind myself to enjoy every step of the way and the very moment. NOW is as good as it gets. There is no where else that i wanna be, no people that i wanna be with than those that i am currently with NOW.

I need some advice on a storage device, we currently have a fibre attached MSA 1000 with 460Gb total disk space.
We are struggling with this unit, because of the amount of data we have on it and the amount of users.
We use the storage for everything from file storage, to redirected profile info and we are seeing it's disk writes and reads in Process Monitor go through the roof.
So I need some advice on a new storage abotu what is the best to deal with high volumes of data and what is the best way to attach it on our network so that we have maximum read/write speeds (fibre/ NAS ?)
One thing to bear in mind is I would like to look at virtualising my servers this year so I need something that would be good for that too.

Sounds like you're going to need to go with a high performance SAN (especially if you want to virtualize). Since you're already using HP you will probably want to look at a fiber connected SAN from LeftHand (HP just bought them) Networks. Good product and one of the regulars here at SpiceWorks (Limey) uses it quite extensively.
My company just got a EMC CX4-120 through Dell and it's been fantastic. We purchased the installation as well so EMC came over and put everything in and got it going for me, then showed me how to hook up machines to it. Attaching my VMware server to it was a breeze. Windows took a few more installs and 2 reboots, which is unfortunate but once installed it runs like a champ.
You might be able to get away with using iSCSI, which is less expensive, but it sounds like you already have familiarity with fiber so I'd probably stay there.
Feb 10, 2009 at 9:06 UTC
I would definitely recommend "Lefthand" for your SAN. As for virtualization I would look into Virtual Iron. It's a lot cheaper the VM Ware (which is a very popular software)...

I like NetApp for NAS/SAN. They are a pioneer in the field, and are very knowledgable and can provide a solution for SMBs all the way up to the most complex of enterprises.
You may be able to work with an iSCSI NAS using one of their higher end filers to write/manage the data to disks. If you still want to look at SAN (which is becoming pretty close to NAS these days...or should I say NAS is becoming close to SAN) then I would try to focus on iSCSI SAN solutions. FiberChanel will push the cost, complexity of deployment and management way up.

An under construction dam in western Cambodia partially collapsed, injuring at least four workers and leaving four others missing.
Local media quoted officials as saying the hydroelectric dam partially collapsed as it was holding too much water. A Ministry of Mine and Industry official told residents on Sunday not to worry.
"This is just a minor problem of a broken pipe and the construction is still going on as per normal, so I appeal to the people who live around the area not to worry about it."

ShopSavvy Dodges Amazon Cloud Downtime
Dallas-based ShopSavvy, the mobile barcode scanning service run by Alexander Muse, has dodged a widely reported outage at Amazon.com's cloud computing service, Amazon EC2, the firm reported this morning. Muse, in a blog post, said the firm escaped the downtime being faced by a number of other firms, because it has its own set of infrastructure hosting its back end, in addition to using Amazon EC2. Sites such as Reddit, Quora, and Foursquare, the location-based check-in competitor to Austin's Gowalla, have all been affected by the downtime at Amazon. Amazon started seeing issues at 1:41 AM PDT at its Virginia data center.

U.S. Campaign for More Alpine Medals Ends
Both Bode Miller and Teg Ligety failed to complete the first run of the men's slalom race Saturday, effectively ending Team USA's campaign for more alpine medals. The team collected a record number of medals for the U.S. at these Games: eight alpine medals, with three coming from Miller.
But that wasn't going to happen Saturday, as the fog rolled in making an already slick, slushy and wet course even more hazardous. Miller and Ligety were among 44 races who didn't complete a first run that was filled with wipeouts, slips and missed gates.
Despite Saturday's mishap, Miller said he was thrilled to have won three medals, including his first Olympic gold in the combined event.

At the moment lone parents can receive benefits until their youngest child is 16.
This age limit could be cut to 11.
At the same time Mr Hutton is looking at cash penalties for parents who refuse to find work.
Under existing rules they have to attend a job interview four times a year in order to keep their benefits but they are not obliged to take up an offer of work.
"The UK has one of the highest proportions of families headed by a lone parent in Europe," said Mr Hutton.
He added that Britain also had fewer single parents in employment than any other major European country.
But his proposals risk sparking a rebellion by Labour MPs similar to one faced by Tony Blair on the issue in his first year as Prime Minister.
Mr Hutton believes it is "crucial" more single mothers find work if Labour is to meet child poverty targets.
He denied Labour was in danger of reviving the attacks on single mothers by the Tories in the Eighties.
He said: "We must raise our aspirations for every family in Britain.
