Bella tucked herself into the backseat of Rose's BMW, slipping her earbuds in as Jasper and Alice joined her in the back seat. She thumbed quickly through her playlists until she settled on one of her more relaxing mixes of classical music. She hated starting at a new school, though she recognized the need for it. The younger they pretended to be, the longer they could stay in one place.
Which was why Bella and her adopted brothers and sisters were on their way to Forks High for the first day of the second half of the year. Still, however many times they did it didn't relieve Bella's anxiety; she hated being the center of attention for whatever reason, and she knew from experience that her family would draw attention.
Alice, all five foot her of her dressed in designer jeans and a cashmere sweater, dark hair spiked trendily, was practically vibrating as she slipped in next to her husband Jasper. Bella knew she'd seen something, but didn't want to ask, pulling into herself a bit. She caught Jasper's sideways glance and small nod. Apparently, everyone was feeling a bit loudly, and Bella's withdrawal had removed her anxiety from the mix of what the six-foot, dirty blonde male vampire was being exposed to by everyone else. She raised an eyebrow silently asking if she should expand her bubble instead of contract it and Jasper shook his head with a smile, tucking Alice against him, and the effect was instantly calming on the bouncy pixie.
"What's got you going already, Alice?" Emmet drawled, sliding into the front seat next to his wife, Rosalie. His large frame dwarfed the passenger seat, but as intimidating as he looked at something close to six-eight and well muscled, Emmett was a big teddy bear to those he loved, and was the best 'big' brother Bella could have asked for. Rosalie, gorgeous, statuesque, sex on runway model legs (as Bella'd once heard her described) grinned as she glanced at Bella in the mirror, then turned her attention back to the car.
"Nothin'" Alice said with a grin, cuddling up to and tucking herself under Jasper's arm. She'd said several times before how well their bodies fit together, with his over six foot frame and her under five, and most of the time, Bella didn't want to hear any details.
Alice and Emmet were passing as siblings for the duration of their stay in Forks. Their similar coloring let them pass for relations who had taken Carlisle's last name when they'd been adopted by the young doctor and his wife, Esme. Jasper and Rose were once again selling themselves as twins, both blonde and golden eyed, having taken Rosalie's family name this time around. Bella stood alone again, retaking her family name of Swan for the first time in half a century, being the lone child that the Cullens had adopted. It suited her, being the only unmated member of the family. Though she was happy to no longer be alone, to have a family, Bella was still pretty quiet and reserved compared to the rest of the family. She recalled being shy as a human, and that trait hadn't really faded even after a century, she supposed, and probably was part of where her unique gift came from - she could quite literally disappear from others of her kind, and had been working to control it better to protect her family. With her ability to shield came the sense of perception of other vampires that rivaled Alice's visions, and through between the two, they managed to avoid detection several times before.
Bella turned out her siblings chatter and focused on her music as Rosalie drove them to the high school.
With three PhDs (British Literature, American literature, and Sociology) and a slew of other degrees, Bella was loathing another round of high school. At least they'd agreed to let her start as a junior instead of a freshman as the last time. She could have one off on her own for awhile, she supposed, but she'd miss the family too much to stay gone for long, and loved them too much to risk questions if she came back too soon. She watched out the window as Rosalie sped towards then through the small town of Forks. They rode together for the most part because it was easier and asked less questions than if all five of them showed up in different vehicles since they did itry/i to fit in. And Bella's motorcycle would draw attention, especially riding in the perpetually drizzly weather of the Upper Peninsula.
It was another gray day, which suited Bella. After all, she mused, it wasn't like she could go out in the sunlight, and as much as she dreaded the 'first day of school' she'd rather not be cooped up in the house or wandering alone in the woods that surrounded the house. She knew she was spending far too much time alone lately, but she was finding it harder and harder to not feel lonely even when surrounded by her family. She loved them, but being in the company of three couples could get to be too much. Still, she was thankful she couldn't sense their emotions as clearly as Jasper. Bella watched the landscape whip by her window. She'd missed watching the sunrise that morning, one of her favorite activities was to put on quiet music and sit on her East facing balcony and watch the sun peak over the horizon and the turn of colors in the sky. But that morning she'd been helping Esme with a project while Carlisle had been at the hospital and everyone else was occupied. Not that Bella minded, really; there was an eternity of sunrises in front of her, and Esme would only be redecorating Bella's lounge once.
She had a hard time explaining why daybreak was her favorite time of day, especially as a vampire. For her, the rising sun represented a new chance, the coming of a new day and the opportunity for new things. It was odd, she knew, but her whole family was seen as something of an enigma by the rest of the vampire world. They abstained from human blood, spent time interacting with humans, and generally tried to live quiet lives. Having a strange appreciation for the coming of a new day was just one part of Bella's odd life that had started around a century ago.
Bella'd also loved living in Alaska, where it was night for much of the year. She sat for hours at a time watching the Aurora Borealis play across the sky. Though she knew all the science behind it, it didn't make it any less beautiful to watch.
The car slowed and Bella pulled herself out of her musings to take in the parking lot of Forks High. The parking lot was mostly empty but they were early, needing to register. Rosalie pulled into a spot in the student lot and the piled out, Bella thumbing down the volume of her music, but not removing the ear buds. Rosalie took Emmett's hand and walked close with him, while Jasper let Alice tug him along, occasionally lifting his arm so she could dance/twirl under his arm. Bella trailed along, already feeling like her persona for this round was set as the moody outcast sibling, which she didn't want, and so switched to a different playlist hoping to at least pretend to lift her spirits. She caught Jasper's backwards glance and shook her head. She didn't really want to talk about it.
"You must be the Cullen/Hale/Swans," Bella heard as she stepped into the office. An older woman was behind the desk. "I have your schedules here, dears." She called them each out by name, handing over a half-sheet of paper and a manila envelope. "Please get your schedules initialed by each of your teachers and return them here at the end of the day." With that, they were dismissed.
Bella fell in as they compared schedules. She had only two classes with anyone in her family, History, with Jasper which would be interesting, and gym last period with Alice. While they waited for first period to start, they stood in a small clump and watching the stream of arriving students. Bella watched students reuniting from their winter break, seeing the cliques breakdown into groups after a moment as the students milled around. There were a few odd students not belonging to any group. A tall, copper haired boy with glasses nodded at a few people as he passed, but didn't join any group and he disappeared into the music building. A tall dark haired girl lingered on the outskirts of a group, looking up every so often, but not appearing to chat much with the four or five other people in her group.
Even after a century, people watching never really got old. But eventually the warning bell rang and Bella split from her brothers and sisters to find her way to her English class, which she knew was going to bore her to the end of her patience.
English went about as well as she expected. The teacher was at least someone fairly young with a new spin on teaching literature, so it wouldn't be quite as tedious as Bella thought it might. She met the dark haired girl she'd observed outside, Angela, as well as two of the small group she circulated with, Lauren and Jessica. She tagged along with Jessica to trig where she was introduced to Eric and Tyler, whom she also followed to History, going to sit by Jasper at the back of the room.
"Doing okay?" she asked her brother quietly.
Jasper nodded tightly. He and Alice had found Carlisle in the mid 1950s, and Jasper still struggled daily to adapt to the Cullen lifestyle. He'd been an enforcer for a coven for years, and though he didn't talk about it, much, Bella knew that it haunted him, and he had to struggle more against his nature than the rest of the family, and it made Bella smile to know that he did it for Alice. But they'd been out of school for awhile, and this was the largest group that Jasper had been around and he'd lost a bit of his immunity.
So Bella chatted with him quietly throughout the lecture. The teacher couldn't hear them from their place in the back, and so she did her best to distract her brother by helping him poke holes in the lesson. Jasper had 'lived' through the Civil War, and he always had interesting stories that contradicted the so called experts.
Soon enough, that hour passed as well, and Jasper led her out of the room like a gentleman, ruffling her long dark hard in a very Emmett-like fashion before they split – her to Spanish, Jasper to calculus.
Spanish also dragged on, and Bella made a note to see if she could switch her fourth period to a study hall or other elective. She was already fluent in all the languages the school offered, not that she could make that argument, but she'd take whatever placement test they'd ask to show her proficiency (not perfection, just pass), in order to get out of another half year of learning to conjugate verbs and adapt to a different grammatical structure than English.
"Hey, Bella!"
She turned at the voice, finding a smile for Angela. "Hey Angela," she returned the greeting, pausing and waiting for the other girl to catch up.
"Join us for lunch today? There's a few more people you should meet." Angela fidgeted a bit, and Bella read her body language enough to see she was nervous and uncomfortable around her. Humans usually were; it was the innate predator within that the humans sensed, even if they couldn't really identify what their body was telling them.
"I'd love to," Bella said smoothly, "but I've already promised to sit with my family." Jasper was probably ready for some peace, and she was ready to be able to put her guard down for a few minutes. "Maybe tomorrow?" She smiled, careful not to show too much teeth.
"Oh. Sure!" Bella wondered if Angela was aware of how relieved she looked. "I'll catch you tomorrow, then." She headed off with a wave.
Bella filed into the cafeteria with the rest of the students, making her way to the lunch line for a sandwich and bottle of juice, neither of which she would actually consume, and carried her tray over to join her family. She slid into a seat between Jasper and Rosalie and toyed with the bottle, watching the students around her. There were glances toward their table, and Bella smirked occasionally as one of their names broke through the hum of voices in the room. They certainly were the subject of the day as most of the students' conversations centered around the mysterious Cullens, Hales, and the Swan girl.
"I still think it's weird that they're all hooked up like that,"Bella heard someone say. "I know they're not all blood related, but still, it's creepy. All living in the same house?"She laughed softly. What would they say if they knew that Alice and Jasper had 'officially' married years ago, and that Emmett and Rosalie went through the ceremony whenever it served their purpose for them to live apart from the rest of the family?
"They're all so pretty. But that one with the long brown hair, she's just plain. Wonder why she doesn't fit in with them?" Another voice put in. Bella ducked her hair a bit, letting said hair curtain her face, but she felt Jasper's arm around her shoulders in a half hug and she leaned into him a bit, thankful for the contact.
"You know they're just jealous, right?" Jasper asked her quietly.
Bella nodded. The words weren't anything new. She knew her long dark hair was unremarkable, and her eyes glowed a soft butterscotch when she was well fed, and she was pale and not much to look at, not compared to Rosalie's model good looks or Alice's cute pixie hair and body that carried off just about any look she wanted. But she also knew that teenagers were cruel (after all the time she'd spent in high school, she sometimes wondered if she was really just in hell), and that's how they expressed their emotions. "I know."
Rosalie slid off Emmett's lap. "Gonna go give them a piece of my mind…"
Emmett grabbed her wrist and tugged her back down. "Can't do that babe. We shouldn't have heard that," he reminded her, nuzzling her gently, which instantly calmed her down. "What do you care what they think anyway, Bells?" Emmett turned to her.
"I don't," Bella said with a shrug. "Thanks, Rose, but save it for when someone tries to get Em into the janitor's closet," she teased, causing them to laugh, remembering when a cheerleader had tricked him into the closet. He'd spent a week begging Rose's forgiveness that time.
The warning bell rang then, and students began packing up.
"Have fun in biology!" Alice trilled at Bella, linking her arm with Jasper as they strode off.
Bella rolled her eyes and gathered her messenger bag and tray, tossed her uneaten lunch and joined the mass of humanity pressing back out into the halls, locating her building and trailing after the students, making sure to remember to travel at a human pace and suppressing another sigh.
"Mr. Banner?" Bella approached an older man, beginning to bald slightly at the temples, with grey begging to appear in flecks in his brown hair. He looked like a typical teacher in khaki trousers and a button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up. "I'm new."
"Ah, yes, Miss Swan?" Mr. Banner took her schedule and initialed it. "Here's a text book," he said, handing her a tome. "And here you are," he said with a small smile, handing back her schedule. "Please take that empty spot there by Mr. Masen." He waved to the back of the room, where a young man sat alone at a bench.
Bella nodded and took a step when the air in the room shifted. She hesitated a beat, barely noticeable to the rowdy human teenagers around her as her mouth filled with venom and the sudden urge to pounce on one of the children in the room over took her. She repressed the foreign desire, continuing at a human pace to the back of the room where the scent that triggered the blood lust grew stronger, and she was able to identify it belonging to the boy she'd been told to sit by. He was dressed simply in dark jeans, a dark green shirt under a black sweater. Her hands clenched as she swallowed back another mouthful of venom at the scent, both sweet and spicy, cinnamon and vanilla and something imale/i coming from the copper haired boy sitting alone. She slid into her seat, allowing her long brown hair to fall around her face, curtaining her from the boy and slightly masking his scent with her own, but she'd already gotten a good look at him.
He was physically gorgeous, adding to the draw that was pulling Bella in, all but begging for her to pull him close and find out if he tasted as good as he smelled. Her manicured fingernails bit into her palms as she fought another wave of desire to devour him. She stopped breathing immediately, and found the fervor dim slightly. She caught the curious look in his green eyes from behind black plastic rimmed glasses. His face was pale, his eyes slightly red around his lids and dark circles beginning to appear under his eyes as if he'd not been sleeping and Bella found herself instantly wanting to know why. He leaned heavily on his table, pinching the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger before dropping his chin to rest in his palm with a quiet sigh. Bella heard the quiet catch in his breath that he probably didn't even feel yet and she found herself wondering if he had asthma or some other breathing condition.
He turned toward her and she fought once again against her nature, to take this innocent boy and drain him dry, something she'd never experienced before and it was tearing at her inside.
"Hi. I'm Edward." His voice was like smooth velvet despite the undertone of tiredness that ran through his voice. "You're Bella, right?"
She nodded, unsure if she should risk breathing to answer, and then decided that not answering would be rude and inexcusable. "Yes. Nice to meet you." Her throat burned again as her senses were again assaulted with his scent, and she couldn't figure out why he hadn't pulled away from her already. No one ever sat in this close of proximity for this long, even when they weren't drawing her in against their will. She'd automatically pulled her shield in around her at school, but normally humans weren't sensitive enough to notice. Either this boy was extraordinarily perceptive, or something else was going on.
Thankfully further conversation was cut off as the lecture started. Bella once again stopped breathing to let the fire in her fizzle out as she tried to push away the images of how she could take out the class and then savor the boy. She tried to block out the memory of his scent, fighting the urge again to bury her nose in his neck and lick. She wouldn't be the reason they had to move again so soon, not because she'd slaughtered a room full of innocent children just to satisfy her lust and curiosity about this wonderful smelling boy. Edward she reminded herself, trying to remember that he was a person with a family (she assumed) and not just another herd animal for her to hunt to satisfy her thirst. She wouldn't do that to Carlisle after they'd just gotten settled. The desire began to cool slightly as she rationalized with herself why she couldn't give in, how her family would react to having to pack back up and leave again so suddenly.
Not once did it enter her mind that she'd be sick as a dog for days if she gave in. She was focused on only not betraying or disappointing her family. She made herself focus on the details of Esme's face as she was so happy to decorate the new house, of Alice and Rose's joy at being so close to Seattle for shopping, of Emmet's whoop of joy at the off-roading opportunities the area presented to them. She pushed away the images her mind presented to her of Edward broken and moving under her, the smell of fresh spilt blood, swallowing venom again as she imagined the way he tasted.
Finally the bell rang, breaking into her thoughts and freeing her from the torture she'd wandered into. She bolted, trying to remember to go slow, to look human as she gathered her books swiftly and made for the door, only to get too caught up in her escape and tripping over her own feet, only to crash into Emmett.
"Whoa, li'l sis. Where's the fire?" Emmett teased lightly as he righted her.
"Need out," she hissed so only he could hear. She could feel eyes on her back.
Emmett stepped back, letting her go, a puzzled expression on his face. Bella knew she was the last one anyone in the family expected to have struggles against being surrounded by humans, giving her aversion to their blood (and since Jasper was still so new to their way of life). She made her escape, but she could clearly hear the voices behind her.
"Hey, Masen," she heard Emmett greet Edward. Apparently they'd already met.
"Is she okay?" Bella heard Edward ask.
"Yeah, just girl stuff, y'know?" Emmett teased, and Bella groaned, knowing she'd be grilled about it later, as she escaped to the fresh air outside. She took a large breath, her mind clearing of the haze as his scent was washed away by the damp crisp air, though still internally shaken by the whole experience. She thought about reaching for her iPod and heading home to hide and figure out what the hell was going on, but she had gym with Alice, and it wouldn't do to ditch on their first day. As her head cleared, she felt guilty for what she'd even considered doing, though she tried to let it go, because she'd long ago come to terms with the creature she was, and she'd heard from others of her kind that there were those humans who called more loudly than others. But that didn't make her feel any better for knowing she'd nearly put her whole family at risk for that boy. iEdward/i.
Alice danced up to her and took her arm, leading her to the locker room. They wouldn't have to dress out, which Bella was thankful for. "So...?" Alice asked with a leading smile.
"'So' what?" I'm guessing you saw?" Bella asked, her mood lifting a bit in the presence of her hyperactive sister.
"Just him. You've been so distant lately," Alice said, a note of sadness in her voice.
Bella nodded. She'd been feeling a bit more isolated and lonely lately and that was usually reflected in her withdrawal from the family and interaction with them.
"So?" Alice asked again, bouncing lightly on her toes, her smile firmly back in place.
"It's bad, Alice," Bella said softly. "I wanted him," she admitted quietly.
Alice stopped dancing at her side outside the doors to the gym. They entered quietly, found the coach and got signed in before settling on the bleacher's before they spoke again.
"Really?" Alice asked after a few moments watching the teams run around. "But, you, and..."
Bella ducked her head, letting her hair fall over her face again in a comforting curtain. "I know."
"That is bad," Alice said quietly.
Bella shrugged. "I'll manage. I'm not going to be the reason we have to move again so soon. Everyone seems to like it here so far." They'd only been (back) in Forks for a couple weeks, since before Christmas, and the weather meant they didn't have to stay inside all the time. Carlisle was settled into the hospital, and it couldn't be good for his career to get ripped out of a position as suddenly as sometimes happened.
Alice gave her a one armed hug. "One of these days, I'm going to make you see that you have needs worth being considered too," she said quietly in Bella's ear before settling back. "He's cute, though," she teased, back to her bouncy self.
Bella laughed softly. "Yes, he is. And apparently already befriended Emmett, too. Though something's odd about him," Bella mused. "He didn't shy away from me. I had shielded, but usually humans don't notice. He must be really perceptive or really stupid, or something else is going on. He's not one of us, but there could be something else..." Bella was just thinking out loud by that point.
Bella looked over at Alice, seeing her eyes glaze over slightly as she searched for a vision. "He's perceptive," she said quietly. "He knows things about people. He's not like Jasper, something else. He anticipates, knowing what people are going to say, or mean to say." Alice shook her head slightly, coming out of the vision. "I think we'll need to watch ourselves around him. You should be fine, but I'll make sure I talk to Emmett and Jasper. Rosalie doesn't have any classes with him."
Bella nodded, tucking her hair back behind her ear and out of her face. Alice's visions were fairly reliable, and Bella trusted them enough to not bet against Alice. There may be more that Alice wasn't telling her, but if that was so, then it wasn't anything Bella needed to know right away. The rest of the hour passed quickly enough, Bella having dug out her iPod and Alice her sketch book, until the bell rang and they trooped out to meet their siblings for the ride home.

jp1958: 400 WS is not strong enough to over power the summer sun. The angle of coverage is good for a 50mm lens. It is no Profoto Acute/D4 Ring.
It's PLENTY powerful. With Acute ring flashes ND filters are often needed to make it less powerful.
DStudio: "It also has an integrated lens motor allowing for focus, iris and zoom to all be controlled from an ARRI hand unit, wirelessly. This makes the ALEXA Mini 4K an excellent choice for use with a drone."
I find this statement dubious. Only those with very high budgets might do this. The risk of damage using a drone can be reasonably high, so you'd have to be able to afford to rent or buy a number of units and somehow get them insured.
Most independent filmmakers need not apply (at least for drone use).
This isn't for people without high budgets. Productions already mount red one cameras to drones all the time, this is just Alexa's answer. The type of professional drone pilot who handles this type of stuff rarely crashes anyways.
I don't get it, was this a sponsored post or something?
I bought and tested this camera heavily over a 2 week period. It's a great camera. But there are many more drawbacks to using this in a fashion shoot setting (or for many types of professional work) than were listed here.
How about the fact that it doesn't work tethered to C1? Guess how many fashion shoots happen these days without being tethered? And frankly the autofocus does not hold up to the standards set by modern full frame cameras, and neither do the files.
I could get through a professional shoot with that camera, which is saying something (if C1 added tethered support). But I would constantly be noticing its many small shortcomings, and the last thing you want to think about when shooting is your camera. I find it very hard to believe that a working professional didn't have anything to say about the camera that would hold her back from using it other than the indention of the controls.
um, yeah, you might remember it less, until you look at the photo.
Clint Dunn: The funniest thing about the litany of complaints here is that the majority of you don't pay for the SW...you use pirated copies. Go ahead...tell me I'm wrong:) For every Pro out there with a legit copy of PS is a 'Pro' doing $500 weddings on weekends with $2000 of SW they got off a torrent site.
I have very little choice to not buy this software. As a photographer and a digital tech, I can perhaps manage to not upgrade for about 18 months, but after that.... I'm actually tempted to get the upgrade right now just to be able to use clarity as a filter. For many people, there really is no choice in the matter.
I do think the the price should come down a little though.

Does size matter?
July 3rd, 2005
Dr Petra
Talk about a daft question. Of course size matters! Anyone who works in sexual health, education or advice knows that one of the main things men worry about is penis size.
And you can hardly blame them. Currently whole industries operate to make men feel inadequate about their size and to convince them through spam emails, dodgy websites, and inaccurate media features that masculinity is dependent on having a massive dick.
Every week I get hundreds of letters from guys anxious about their penis size, shape and behaviour. Each time I do a radio phone-in or advice webcast the same questions come up – what's the normal penis size? Every day, around the world, that question is repeated to other agony aunts, general practitioners, sexual health advisors and therapists.
Part of the problem is a lack of sex education. Globally sex education classes vary in standard, with most not tackling issues around penis size. In many places there's no sex education at all. Match this with the increased availability of porn (where guys are always massive) and men's understandable anxiety about asking other men about penis size, you can see why guys are easy targets for unscrupulous individuals and companies.
Hardly surprising that this gets in the way of men's sexual pleasure, and causes countless relationship, sexual and confidence problems.
Most professionals working in this area are aware of this problem and do their best to reassure men. New research confirms we're on the right lines.
A study by Rany Shamloul from Cairo University worked with 92 male patients complaining of a small penis. 66 (71.7%) thought their penis was too short when flaccid (soft), whilst 26 (28.3%) felt their penis wasn't big enough when either short or erect.
Patients in this study were provided with sex education and their penile length and girth measurements were taken. Participants were told if their soft penis was above 4cm and their erect state was over 7cm then they were 'normal'.
No patients in the study had a small penis according to clinical measurements, but nearly all the men studied overestimated their own size. This has been found in previous research where men anxious about their penises assume other men's dicks are all bigger than their own.
The University of Cairo study, published in the journal 'Urology' has shown how sex education alongside accurate penile measurement can reduce men's penis worries. This can increase confidence; reduce relationship and sexual performance anxiety, and men seeking unnecessary and untested penile lengthening surgery.
So the message is clear. Men and boys require far greater sex education, and reassurance their penis size is normal. Explaining penises come in different shapes and sizes, and size doesn't correlate with being a good lover can reassure men. Men also should campaign against the pressure placed upon them to be 'big' – challenging dodgy websites and private medical groups who advocate untested medications or surgical practices that supposedly 'increase' penis size.
They're not there to help men – they're there to make money out of guys because they know they can prey on men's penis size anxieties.Tweet

The classic punk act have signed a major record deal with Universal - but is it yet another example of the band selling out against their punk ideals?
The Sex Pistols have signed a major recording deal with Universal.
It will release an expanded and repackaged edition of "Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols", which will be released this year to celebrate the band's 35th anniversary, according to BBC.
"Music can be great, when done by the great. The Sex Pistols are the greatest," said a typically immodest Johnny Rotten to NME. "Universal now has a trophy room, music is the imitation of nature, the Sex Pistols are nature, so please give generously. Thank you."
Karen Simmonds from Universal is happy with the new signing. "To be given the opportunity to re-evaluate the Sex Pistols catalogue is every music lover's dream. We're looking forward to working with the band and celebrating their impact on worldwide culture."
The Sex Pistols formed in 1975 and are widely credited with popularising punk. At one 1976 Sex Pistols gig in Manchester, future members of The Smiths, The Buzzcocks, The Fall, Happy Mondays and Joy Division were inspired to form bands having seen the live energy of punk for the first time.
While it might take a major label to manage the scale activity behind a significant historic act, some fans may view the signing with disappointment.
In 2007, singer Johnny Rotten came under fire when he took part in a butter advert, with many long term fans disappointed that their punk hero had apparently "sold out".
Have the Sex Pistils sold out out all over again, or is the signing necessary to bring their music to a modern audience? Share your view in the comments.

Glossary of Geology, Third Edition
This third edition of the Glossary of Geology contains approximately 37,000 terms, or 1,000 more than the second edition, as well as 650 emendations and corrections. In addition, it includes for the first time the division of cited terms in syllables, with accents to aid in pronunciation. Approximately 150 references have been added to the 2,000 in the second edition. Literature cited ranges from the early 1790s to 1986.New entries are especially numerous in the fields of carbonate sedimentology, hydrogeology, marine geology, mineralogy, ore deposits, plate tectonics, snow and ice, and stratigraphic nomenclature.
Many of the definitions provide background information. Thus the reader will learn the difference between sylvanite and sylvinite, and many other look-alike pairs; the origin of such terms as charnockite and lottal; the meaning of BHP, LVL, MORB, and more than 100 other abbreviations now common in the geoscience vocabulary; and the dates when many terms were first used, the meaning of certain common prefixes, and the preferred term of two or more synonyms.
The authority of this new edition - like that of its predecessors - rests on the expertise of geoscientists from many specialties, who have reviewed definitions, added new terms, and cited references. Their contributions make the Glossary an essential reference work for all in the geoscience community.

Johannesburg Aug 7, 2011
South Africa's preparations to host the next major round of climate talks have met with scepticism from activists critical of what they say is the country's lack of leadership on environmental issues. The high-level meeting of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, scheduled for November 28 to December 9 in the eastern port city of Durban, is seen as the last chance to renew the Kyoto Protocol, the only international agreement with binding targets for cutting greenhouse gases. But environmentalists have voiced concern that South African organisers are not doing enough to lay the groundwork for an ambitious conference that will make hard commitments on climate change and raise the cash to achieve them. "In terms of preparation, in terms of setting the agenda and setting the level of ambition and so on, we still do not have as much clarity as there should be," the international head of Greenpeace, South African activist Kumi Naidoo, told AFP. "How are the preparations going? Not in an inspiring manner," said Richard Worthington, head of the climate programme at World Wildlife Fund (WWF) South Africa. "From a diplomatic, preparing-the-ground point of view, we would like to see efforts stepped up significantly. Things have been slow getting going. It's not too late to come right, but time is running out." There are rumours on the ground that preparations for the talks have been bogged down by infighting between the foreign and environment ministries over which is responsible for what. "It's a mess. The ministers are fighting, and we don't even have a website. We are not communicating enough," a government source told the weekly Mail & Guardian newspaper. The ministers denied those reports, saying they were working well together and had clearly delineated portfolios: foreign minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane is organising the talks, and environment minister Edna Molewa is heading up South Africa's delegation. "In South African vocabulary, there is no such thing as a turf war," Nkoana-Mashabane told journalists at a briefing on the preparations, which the ministers both said were going well. The United Nations has also given a vote of confidence, with UN conference coordinator Salwa Dallalah telling reporters in Durban: "We are moving very well and we are on target." South Africa also faces the challenge of reduced global expectations for what can come out of the talks. The Kyoto Protocol's initial five-year commitment period, covering 37 industrialised countries, expires at the end of 2012. Japan, Canada and Russia have all rejected a new round of carbon-cutting commitments. The world's top two polluters, China and the United States, never signed Kyoto at all. And the United States and the European Union have already said there is zero chance of reaching a binding emissions deal in Durban. "I think it would be fair to say that the prospects for even a reasonable outcome are not looking good right now," said the WWF's Worthington. South Africa only bears a portion of the blame as hosts, he added, praising Pretoria for pushing internationally for what he called "a progressive outcome relative to the prospects". The larger problem, he said, is that "political will internationally is sorely lacking." But South Africa, which relies on coal for more than 90 percent of its electricity and is currently building two massive new coal-fired power plants, has also been criticised for a lack of leadership on climate issues. "There is a disconnect between the role we've played in (climate) negotiations, on the one hand, and what we are doing domestically," said Greenpeace's Naidoo. "We are still clinging onto our addiction to fossil fuels."

Kyoto on the line as S. Africa preps UN climate talks

State Wants to Cut Off Your Access to Bateman Island in Favor of Fish
Technically Bateman Island isn't really a true island, it's joined to the shore of the Columbia River, just south of the merger between the Yakima and Columbia Rivers. There's a narrow causeway, or path, that allows people to access the area. But a plan to breach the causeway to help fish might change that.

Wife Caught Kobe Cheating
January 24, 2012 by staff
Wife Caught Kobe Cheating, Kobe Bryant's soon-to-be ex wife is winning big these days. The Mexican basketball wife, who filed for divorce from the L.A. Lakers star last month after he reportedly stepped out of the marriage, just got all three of Bryant's mansions worth close to $18.8 million, the Los Angeles Times reports.
And this is only the beginning of what Mrs. Bryant is expected to get, as the divorce with Kobe Bryant is finalized.
The Los Angeles Times says experts believe Vanessa Bryant will get around $75 million and additional funds in child support.
The properties that Mrs. Bryant has transferred to her name include the mansion inside the Pelican Hill Resort which is still under construction worth $ 11.2 million, their other Newport Beach home which was co-owned, worth $2.9 million, and the home which was under Kobe Bryant's trust worth $4.7 million.
Vanessa Bryant claims she caught her husband with "multiple women" over the years, but she felt the latest incident was the final straw, prompting her to file for divorce.
Vanessa, whose parents are both Mexican, was not believed to have been a favorite of Kobe's parents. Joe Bryant, Kobe's dad, had reportedly turned his back on the relationship because the family did not approve of Vanessa. It's been widely reported that his parents weren't crazy about him marrying a Latina.
Bryant, meanwhile, was being linked to one of socialite Kim Kardashian's best friends, according to RadarOnline.
The website cited unconfirmed reports that the 33-year-old has been on very friendly terms with 27-year-old Carla DiBello for the past two years.
DiBello, a producer on the reality TV series "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" and "Kourtney and Kim Take New York," has been close friends with Kardashian for a while, traveling around the world with her on work trips.
Prior to becoming a producer, DiBello worked as Steve Wynn's assistant at his hotel casino in Las Vegas, as well as in other posts in the hotel industry.

The pattern incorporates many of Judy's updated techniques including strip piecing, floating points, Smart Corners, and a revised assembly process that avoids Y-seams! A border has been added that modifies the size as well. The pattern is compatible with Quiltworx Bali Pops, a product from Hoffman Fabrics that includes 48 2-1/2" strips that Judy has personally selected and pre-sorted for this pattern.

Ideal Characteristics Of Snorkels For 4-Wheel Adventure Vehicles
4 WDs are best to have when they have cool accessories that fit our adventures. When going through rough roads and crossing shallow rivers, it is best to have a customized snorkel that keeps the engine safe and working. Hence, it is important that we have this device exclusively designed for our use. There are several types of snorkels metal fabrication companies can offer. And it is always left on us which one fits our preferences. Speaking of the ideal snorkel, it is the one that meets our specifications and that it could last on all the adventures we have. That is why we have to point out these characteristics to consider when having a customized snorkel.
• Durable material. There are several types of material you can choose from when it comes with snorkels. Metal fabrication companies offer different options that best suit your favorite design and the kind of adventures you're going through. That is why you have to be specific with your preferences so that you could have the best deal on your snorkel.
• Reliable fitting and built. When it comes with customized snorkel, it is always a must to have it installed properly on the vehicle. Problems like leakage and damage on the engine could come up if this has not been done with expertise. Apart from that, the snorkel itself should be well-built so that it could last in the stressful environment you'll be taking on your trips.
• Awesome features. An example of this is air ram that has a separator. This keeps the water from entering the air stream, and that makes the engine safe. There are several more features you can ask to include on your snorkel.
• Cool design. When having a customized snorkel, you can always suggest a particular design you want to have. If you don't have one in your head, you can choose from the existing designs the company has. Meanwhile, you can suggest minor changes on its features make it unique for your vehicle.

The SS Terra Nova, the ship used by Scott of the Antarctic on his fateful expedition, was lost off the coast of southern Greenland in 1943 – until now.
Technology brings unmysterious end to an ocean mystery
Earlier this year The Review ran a cover story on the final days of Capt Robert Falcon Scott, the British explorer who lost the race to become the first man to reach the South Pole in 1911 (he was famously beaten by his Norwegian rival Roald Amundsen) but later won a nation's admiration for his epic failure.
Historical judgement has vacillated on Scott in the century since his death in March 1912: some view him as the ultimate heroic Englishman, steadfast and stoic to the last even in the face of insurmountable odds and worsening weather conditions. Others see him simply as a reckless and incompetent leader, whose expedition spiralled out of control.
One recent suggestion even asserted that Scott shot Edgar Evans - a member of the so-called "final five" who made their way to the Pole and whose body has never been found - when he became incapacitated on the return journey in February 1912.
Much mystery continues to surround Scott's mission, although thankfully at least one of the puzzles that enveloped the trip and its aftermath - namely the fate of the ship that bore Scott and his compatriots to the southern hemisphere and later made the sombre return journey back to Britain's shores - has recently been laid to rest.
Scott's ship SS Terra Nova departed for the South Atlantic in June 1910 and would not return from the Antarctic until January 1913, two months after Scott's body (together with the frozen remains of Edward "Bill" Wilson and Henry "Birdie" Bowers) had been found. Sold back to its original owners, Terra Nova would remain in service for another 30 years before it sank off southern Greenland in September 1943 after striking an iceberg.
For 69 years since then, the Terra Nova has resisted attempts to be found, and while its story probably does not rank with that of the USS Cyclops - the US navy ship that vanished without trace in March 1918 in the so-called Bermuda Triangle - it occupies, at the very least, a significant corner of the Scott tale.
Terra Nova was found by the Schmidt Ocean Institute during strategic testing of its new flagship, RV Falkor, and its echo-sound equipment. This was no chance discovery.
The organisation, which devotes itself to deep sea exploration, says the "approximate estimated position of the wreck was used as the central point for the test survey" and that "an area roughly five nautical miles around the position was selected for the survey". The 57m profile of Terra Nova was discovered during 12 hours of intensive equipment testing, although its precise location will not be released, says the Institute, "to protect the site … from unwanted attention".
Written in the precise language of a science paper, the Institute's report rather flattens the drama and the endeavour of Falkor's crew first seeking and then finding their prize. It is, nevertheless, remarkable news, almost perfectly timed given that this year clangs with centenary commemorations of Scott's final mission.
One now assumes that the seabed of southern Greenland will remain the last resting place of the ship whose name means "new earth". Neither its presumed deep-lying position nor its condition lend itself to raising the Terra Nova. One also imagines that Scott himself might have approved of a scientific exploration - his own polar institute at the University of Cambridge continues to prosper in the modern era - discovering this significant find, rather than some plunder-for-profit salvage expert. And finally, one wonders, if the USS Cyclops will be the next to catch the Falkor's all-seeing eye? Now that would be some find.

BERNARDSVILLE The Bedwell Home and School Association (HSA), which raised funds to help pay for the new equipment, presented a check for $102,144 to the Somerset Hills Board of Education on Monday night.
So far, the association has more than $92,600 in hand and another $9,500 anticipated for the project. The association raised $26,000 above the $76,000 requested by the regional board last fall when it approved installation of the $226,000 playground.
The board committed $150,000. Donations and/or pledges have been obtained from various sources such as the municipalities of Bernardsville and Peapack-Gladstone and the Basking Ridge-based Somerset Hills YMCA.
Bernardsville Mayor Hugh Fenwick and Borough Councilman Lee Honecker, Peapack-Gladstone Mayor Vincent Girardy and Somerset Hills YMCA executive director Robert Lomauro were on-hand for the check presentation.
"Project Playground was begun about three years ago as an effort to raise money to repair a wooden playground at Bedwell. But it later shifted gears to become a playground replacement effort due to the condition of the old facility," said Susan Kamins, co-president of the Bedwell HSA. The new playground will be constructed primarily of plastic.
The amount raised beyond the board's request will be used for several purposes. A total of $14,000 has been used to purchase additional equipment for 2- to 5-year-olds that had been shaved from early plans due to cost considerations.
A different pole design has also been ordered to accommodate the future purchase of eight roof structures, Kamins said. Any remaining balance will be set aside for additional equipment once the playground has been completed.
The $92,644 received so far came from the following sources: Donations from school district families and community members, $48,447; Bedwell School Fall Festival, $4,698; income from grocery certificate sales, $3,000; amount raised from previous fundraisers, $11,500; Borough of Bernardsville, $25,000.
Pledges include: Borough of Peapack-Gladstone, $7,000; YMCA challenge to parents in a Bedwell afterschool program, $2,500.
Site preparation for the playground is expected to take place when warm weather arrives, Kamins said Tuesday. Officials expect that it will take about six weeks to finish the playground, she said.

By Donna Freydkin, USA TODAY
NEW YORK He's a critically revered stage actor and quintessential Manhattanite, raised on the Lower East Side by an artist mother and now living downtown. She's an Aussie who loves sunshine and sea and sand.
And now that Liev Schreiber and Naomi Watts are expecting their first child together and having to balance their geographic desires, what's a guy to do?
Schreiber shakes his head and shrugs.
"We're working on it. We're still sorting through it. New York is my home and my inspiration and where all my work is," he says with a sigh. "It's a hard place to live, but it's also such a big part of who I am. I can't imagine anything else. But you get into a relationship, and you have to be flexible."
Schreiber, 39, and Watts, 38, who met at a Metropolitan Museum gala two years ago, decided not to find out the gender of their child, due in late summer. And they haven't gone on any shopping binges. "It's gonna start soon, I can imagine," Schreiber says.
First-time fatherhood is something he feels confident about.
"It feels like something I've always wanted to do and was meant to do," he says. "I'm looking forward to it. I've always felt like, kids and dogs, I get. There's a purity and simplicity and innocence to them that I feel like is the best thing in life."
Earning a second Tony nomination isn't half bad, either. (His first was for David Mamet's Glengarry Glen Ross in 2005; he won.)
Schreiber is nominated for his ranting, boozing, smoking and venting turn as shock-jock Barry Champlain in the revival of Eric Bogosian's Talk Radio. The New York Times' Ben Brantley wrote that, with this play, Schreiber "confirms his status as the finest American theater actor of his generation, a man capable of presenting clouded, complicated minds with searing clarity." (The Tony Awards air Sunday at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.)
Sitting in the deserted Longacre Theatre two hours before showtime, Schreiber says he's surprised the play, set in 1987 when another Bush was in the White House, even made it to the stage.
"It's pretty offensive stuff," he marvels, laid-back in jeans and a button-down shirt, sporting a shaggy gray scruff of a beard that's part of his stage character. Unlike most actors, who seem much smaller off screen, Schreiber is a lanky, towering presence with a firm handshake.
"It's really fun being provocative, but I'm not nearly as provocative as Barry," he says. "Everyone wants to let their mean streak go, and I love letting it go. That's part of what the play is about: Why are we so desperate to do that?"
Schreiber has had ample opportunity to delve into his dark side playing characters somehow at odds with themselves. There's the conflicted politician Raymond Shaw in 2004's The Manchurian Candidate. And, more recently, he played the intense, brooding investigator Michael Keppler on CBS' CSI.
"I was really scared of it. I was terrified I wouldn't know what I was doing and look like a complete jackass," he concedes. "(But) the CSI experience — they are the best. There's a reason they're so successful. It was fun to be a part of it and feel the security net of that level of competency."
Though he straddles the worlds of stage and screen, Schreiber calls theater transformative. "It's the most fun you can have, legally," he says with a crooked grin.
But lucrative, it's not. "If you want to do Shakespeare in the Park for $500 a week for four months — after taxes it's less — you have to find a way to support yourself. Theater is tough," he says.
He's committed to Talk Radio until June 24 and then, Schreiber says, "I'm going to have a kid. I think that's pretty substantial. I'm trying to write, and in between changing diapers, there will be time to do that."
And he'll quit his nicotine habit once he's done with Barry Champlain, who chain-smokes onstage. "I'm stopping, after this show stops. I actually really enjoy it. There's something naughty about that I like." He smiles.
