(The Hosting News) – Kansas City, Kan.-based NetStandard Inc. will partner with Heartland Technology Solutions (HTS), located in downtown Joplin, Mo., to provide cloud computing business solutions at no cost to help Joplin businesses affected by the tornado to rapidly recover and ensure survivability. This is a particularly vulnerable time for Joplin businesses that were destroyed or severely damaged by the tornado that ripped through their city on May 22, 2011. And time is of the essence, disaster recovery for businesses is most successful when it is immediate: 93% of companies that lose their data center for 10 days or more due to a disaster file for bankruptcy within one year of the disaster* (*Source: National Archives & Records Administration in Washington).
These hosted cloud business solutions (including e-mail, calendar collaboration, file sharing and more) will be delivered directly to business owners' computers via the internet – enabling them to access their data and operate their business from any location through NetStandard's cloud computing product, Myappsanywhere. NetStandard will provide the hosted service to as many businesses as it can handle and that can benefit from NetStandard's service, at no cost, in an effort to provide support for companies during this critical time of recovery from the recent disaster.
"It's a devastating situation for the people of Joplin – including business owners who need to resume operations as soon as possible in order to stay afloat," explained Jeff Melcher, CEO of NetStandard. "We're eager to provide the support Joplin businesses will need, with a solution that lets them operate from virtually anywhere. Their files will be securely stored and backed up at our location, which means they don't need to purchase and maintain computer servers at their business. They can access all of their business applications from wherever they are with a laptop, using their cell phone for voice communication."
NetStandard and HTS are working together to help. HTS is providing a local presence and will help assess needs and next steps for Joplin businesses in partnership with NetStandard.
"It is often possible to recover data even in the worst of circumstances so businesses should definitely explore that potential," said Melcher. "Once data is recovered, we can provide the support to deliver it where they can use it."
To receive disaster business support if you are a Joplin business:
Call 1-888-636-HOST (4678) or 913-262-3888 and ask for "Joplin Disaster Support."

A diatomaceous earth (DE) pool filter cleans chlorinated pool water by passing the water through substrate filled with diatomaceous earth. The material filters out physical contaminants effectively. However, some DE pool filters may occasionally malfunction. You can troubleshoot DE filters to resolve these problems and get your filter back to cleaning your swimming pool water.
Check that your DE pool filter is powered on and connected to a reliable power source. Sometimes, a tripped circuit or power outage may inadvertently shutoff the filter.
Inspect the intakes for the pool filter, found along the edge of the swimming pool. These may have become clogged with large debris, such as leaves or pool toys. Not only does a lack of water through the filter mean the filter cannot do its job, but running a DE filter without water for a prolonged period may damage the internal pump mechanisms.
Clean the DE pool filter. This may resolve issues with water backup and poor water quality in the outlet pipes. Turn off the pool filter and release the pressure valve to drain and relieve all internal pressure. Open the top of the pool filter and slide out the internal grid filter, which is typically shaped like a hexagon or tube. Lay the filter on its side and spray it down with a water hose to flush out physical debris and contaminants. If your filter utilizes removable grid panels, slide out each panel and rinse down individually. Do not use chemical cleaners on the filter, as this may damage it.
Check the tubes and pipe joints of the DE pump. Some rubber hoses or rubber sealing rings at the joints may become cracked and start leaking. This is largely due to elemental factors such as sunshine and chlorine. Inspect such rubber parts annually, and replace as needed. Consult your individual DE filter's manufacturer's manual for the appropriate part numbers and sizing.
Verify that the air relief strainer, found in the outlet pipes of the filter, is in place and not broken. A broken or missing strainer is the most common cause of finding leaked DE material in the actual swimming pool.

How to Translate and analyze the Hindi song "Kal Ho Na Ho"
So we come now to learning Hindi through our first Bollywood song from the film "Kal Ho Na Ho" (title song), starring Shahrukh Khan, Preity Zinta and Saif Ali Khan. We have jumped to very advanced stuff, just to keep up the enthusiasm of my viewers, so I had to just hurry through everything in the 10-min. video. At first the devanagari writing and IPA pronunciation is given over the song itself, and later the song is analyzed. Its word-to-word gloss is given in English, followed by line-by-line meaningful translation.

Utah target Tayler Katoa is one of the most versatile athletes out west, possessing great size, strength, explosion, and overall athleticism. Due to his ability, he's split his time as a dual-threat quarterback on offense and a defensive end and linebacker on defense for almost his entire career. It's easy to see why Utah has made him one of their more important targets this 2017 class.
"I started at quarterback since the halfway point of my sophomore year, but I've played both ways my entire career, it's been limited on defense until this year," Katoa said.
Katoa's natural ability on defense is very impressive, he has an explosive first step, and seems to be all over the field this year at linebacker. "I really enjoy it, it's been my first year playing linebacker, I'm getting a good feel for it. Most teams are recruiting me as a LB/DE hybrid type of a guy, so it's been good to get used to playing the position," he explained.
Utah has had some recent success with that position when you think of guys like Trevor Reilly and Nate Orchard, and the staff has seen that same ability in him for some time. To that end, several members of the Utah staff have developed relationships with Katoa. "Coach Scalley is my recruiter, and I really like Coach Scalley," he said. "Utah was the first to offer me, so I've been talking to them a really long time now and I've built a really good relationship with him. I've talked to Coach Powell, the entire defensive staff really. But I've mostly talked to Coach Ena, the linebackers coach, because they like me at both spots."
With Katoa hailing from Layton, Utah - a short distance from Salt Lake City - he's been able to visit the program and campus quite often. "I've been up there a lot and yeah, Utah's facilities are great. I think they're one of the best in country honestly," he said. "I've been to a lot of different schools, and I think Utah has one of the best. I like the campus too, I've enjoyed it every time I've gone up there."
One of the reasons Katoa has made so many trips to campus is because of his sister, Eliza Katoa. She is currently on the Utes women's volleyball team, and just happens to be one of the best in the Pac-12 conference. "My sister's on the volleyball team, so we go up there a lot and she's great. She's been helping me with the transition from high school to college, like getting prepared for it. It's a whole different beast in college, and she's just been really helpful."
Another thing Utah has been selling to Katoa is the opportunity to be a Hometown Hero, and it's something that he is considering. "I mean, it's a huge opportunity. It would be great to have my family and friends attend games, and for me to be able to perform in front of them, it would be awesome," he said.
Utah isn't the only school that's recruiting Katoa, as he's hearing from other schools like Washington, Colorado, and Washington State. One school in particular has stood out among those three though. "Washington is a program on the rise, they've been tearing everybody up and they're just a winning program," he said. "When I met Coach Peterson, it was awesome. I've made a good a relationship with their staff as well."
It's going to be a heated battle for Katoa's commitment, but the Utes do stand in a good place in his recruitment when considering what he will be looking for in a school. "Some of things that will factor into my decision are my relationships with the coaches going in, what my role on the team would be, the depth chart. I want my family to be able to come to my games, and I want to make sure I like the place I'm living, like the setting I'll be in. Football only takes up so much time, I want to make sure I like where I'm at," he explained.
As his football season winds down, Katoa will start to schedule official visits and start working towards a decision. He wants to commit towards the end of November, as he is set to graduate December 20th, and enroll early to the school that he chooses.

The Washington Redskins told longtime running backs coach Bobby Turner on Monday that he would not be part of Jay Gruden's staff, a team source confirmed. They also informed special teams assistant coach Richard Hightower, whom many players wanted to succeed Danny Smith a year ago, and assistant offensive line coach Chris Morgan that they would not be retained.
Turner was with Mike Shanahan for 14 seasons in Denver and all four in Washington. He excelled at turning no-names into productive backs in the one-cut stretch zone system. One former coach called him the MVP of the staff for his productivity. What this signals as far as Gruden's offensive system is concerned is uncertain. Gruden said last week that he likes to use all sorts of blocking schemes, some zone and some power. Turner helped turn Alfred Morris from a sixth-round pick into one of the NFL's most productive rushers the past two seasons. Turner has had six different backs rush for at least 1,000 yards.
Hightower spent four seasons in Washington as an assistant, the last two of which were spent helping the secondary and special teams.
The Washington Post reported that the Redskins will retain offensive assistant Aubrey Pleasants.
The team still has not officially named the new coordinators, though the speculation still centers on Sean McVay for offense and Jim Haslett for defense.

One of the biggest problems for companies offering free social media services is that in order to gather as big an audience as possible they have to be casual about verifying the identity of their users.
And therein lies a whole heap of problems. For example, the legal consequences of underage users getting access are not trivial so many of these service resort to naive "Confirm you are older than 13" tactics in an attempt (so far successful) to avoid liability. But the underage user problem pales into insignificance compared to the problem of users posting "inappropriate" content.
All of the major free service have "terms of use" agreements that prohibit various types of content and activities including spamming, data mining, multi-level marketing, bullying, hate speech, pornography, nudity, etc., etc. etc.
Violate these terms and the services all reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account. For an example of such terms and conditions see Facebook's Statement of Rights and Responsibilities, in particular see section 3, and Facebook's Community Standards which explains the terms of use in everyday language.
Now, while a social media service provider can ask users to abide by a set of standards they obviously can't simply trust them to do so and so there's an obvious need to police the service looking for content that contravenes the rules which is not an easy job. And that's where Facebook just fell flat on their face and became censors ...
In Johnson County in the state of Kansas, that bastion of freedom, there is the Overland Park Arboretum in which there is a statue. Said statue, titled "Accept or Reject," is of bronze and is a headless torso of a woman taking a "selfie" while clad only in ... well, let me show you the picture:
"Accept or Reject" by Yu Chang - photo by Flickr user 39_Steps
Not my kind of art but neither does it offend or otherwise enrage me. Not so the staggeringly misguided American Family Association (AFA) which supported a group of obviously overwrought Kansans in starting a petition to convene a grand jury to decide whether the statue was "obscene." At a cost to the state of around $35,000 a grand jury was indeed convened after deliberating concluded that the "sculpture in question did not meet the legal definition of obscenity." Kansas, that's your tax dollars at work. The AFA, not daunted by not getting what they want are, apparently, in the process of trying again.
This sorry tale was blogged by Lee Rowland, a staff attorney at the American Civil Liberties Union, under the title of "Citizens of Johnson County v. Two Bare Breasts".
The blog entry was then posted to the ACLU's Facebook page last week along with a photo of the statue and Facebook did the obvious thing: They deleted the post. Yep, Facebook's policing system didn't approve of the post and the picture and, whooosh! It was gone. Then the Facebook doubled down and suspended the ACLU's account by blocking posting for 24 hours.
Lee Rowland commented:
We were flabbergasted; we hadn't tried to republish the offending post or the associated rack. So, just to get this straight: the ACLU's post on censorship was shut down-not once, but twice-for including a picture of, and a political discussion about, a statue standing in a Kansas park ... Facebook's notice told us that the post was removed because it "violates [Facebook's] Community Standards." While my blog did include a comprehensive slate of synonyms for "boobs," it was the visual subject of the blog-the image of the statue itself-that triggered Facebook's mammary patrol.
The really disturbing thing was that the notice (which you can see in Rowland's post on the ACLU site) offered no way to appeal the judgement through either a link in the notice or anywhere on Facebook.
The ACLU was able to do what the average Facebook user can't easily do and tracked down Facebook's PR people and got their attention. The Facebook people were responsive and admitted that "the post was 'mistakenly removed' ... and then 'accidentally removed again'." In fairly short order the ACLU's account and post were restored.
Rowland summed up the issues perfectly:
If Facebook is going to play censor, it's absolutely vital that the company figure out a way to provide a transparent mechanism for handling appeals. That's particularly true when censorship occurs, as it so frequently does, in response to objections submitted by a third-party ... More fundamentally, this incident underscores why Facebook's initial response to content should always err on the side of leaving it up, even when it might offend. After all, one person's offensive bronze breast is also one of Kansas' biggest current media stories.
It will be interesting to see what happens when I post this blog entry with the associated photo to my Facebook account ...

- Japanese quartz movement
- 42mm stainless steel case
- Italian leather NATO band

Stronger version of the Trotsky MBT.
Tactics: Edit
Offense: These have just about the highest health of any rare unit in the game but they are also about the slowest unit in the game. It is best to get them as highly leveled as you can and let them lead the assault since they can take a long time to kill when fully promoted. Their gun is also very deadly to recon units and tanks too. It definitely takes skill to get them in at the right moment since most of your units will race past them if you deploy them too close together. Always support with anti air units (or snipers) if your enemy has helicopters. Don't plan on them killing a SR or UR tank.
Defense: They have no air defense so use helicopters. They are very slow so if the enemy isn't pressing you save up enough resources to deploy 3 or 4 of your heaviest hitters to gang up on one of these tanks. Strong rare or super rare infantry are good against them especially the Hastatus sniper that can get a few shots in before it closes. At close range this tank can kill your infantry so rocket squads are good since it will take 3 shots to kill them. Plan on using several units to bring these down. Any low leveled SR or UR tank or anti tank unit now has a good chance of killing even a fully leveled one of these after the recent unit update.

Australian miner Sundance Resources on Monday said it has accepted a lower takeover offer worth A$1.37 billion (US$1.42 billion) from China's Hanlong Group, a move that could potentially conclude a deal that has dragged on for a year.
The two firms agreed to a price of 45 US cents a share compared with 57 US cents earlier as iron ore prices hover near a three-year low.
Mining deals have cooled as demand from China falls, prompting global miners to cut jobs and put expansion plans on hold as they focus on arresting a slide in profits.
"The lower price just reflects the nature of the market. Buyers can call the terms now," James Wilson, a senior mining analyst at RBS Morgans said.
"Shareholders should be happy given the market outlook and the other alternative which is for Sundance to raise billions to develop the mines," he said.
The revised deal values Sundance at 40 US cents a tonne of iron ore resources compared with about 60 US cents for developers and A$3 for producers, analysts said. Sundance's assets are in Africa and the company will need significant capital to reach the production stage, they said.
"The board believes that the revised offer is worthy of putting to shareholders in light of key considerations," Sundance chairman George Jones said in a statement, referring to weakening markets since the deal was first agreed last October.
The deal, which still needs funding support from China Development Bank and final approvals from the Cameroon and Congo governments, is expected to be completed by mid-December, Sundance said.
Shares in Sundance, which last traded on July 31 at 33.5 US cents, are scheduled to resume trading on Monday. The shares were halted ahead of Chinese regulatory approval of the deal.
The suspension was extended as the two firms haggled over the price after Chinese regulators stipulated a "reasonable acquisition price" as a condition for approval.
Hanlong already owns 17 per cent of Sundance and wants Sundance for its US$4.7 billion Mbalam iron ore project on the border of the republics of Congo and Cameroon in western Africa. The region is seen as a major new source of iron ore that could cut China's dependence on Australia and Brazil.
The protracted deal adds to a tumultuous two years for Sundance.
In June 2010, its entire board of directors was killed in a plane crash near the Mbalam project.
A new board and management were appointed before the Hanlong bid in July last year.

a sample of the book
This book examines the changing roles of the librarian and how working within a rich digital environment has impacted the ability of professionals to develop the appropriate "know how," skills, knowledge, and behaviors required in order to operate effectively. Expert specialists and opinion makers from around the world discuss the challenges and successes of adapting existing practices, introducing new services, and working with new partners in an environment that no longer recognizes traditional boundaries and demarcation of roles. The focus is on three key strands where the impact of digital technologies is significant:
looks at how mobile devices are being used by LIS to enhance communication between services, staff, students and other stakeholder groups and investigates the extent to which LIS have successfully incorporated social media in their approach to managing customer enquiries
"Teaching and Learning"
examines the role of the librarian in engaging with, supporting and training Generation Y researchers in adapting to changing scholarly practices brought about by digitally rich research environment

"Differentiating itself from countless other books available on digital librarianship Mastering Digital Librarianship provides a thematically focussed collection of research-based essays meant to provide academic librarians with a strategic primer for adapting library services for the digital age. In purposefully compiling essays contributed by academic librarians from universities around the world, editors Alison Mackenzie and Lindsey Martin, the Dean and the Assistant Head of Learning Services at Edge Hill University have leant a global perspective to the literature on digital librarianship...Mastering Digital Librarianship is not a rudimentary overview of new technologies. No doubt to maintain the collection's purpose as a guide to key topics on digital librarianship for academic and professionals, the essays use empirical research and case studies written by seasoned professionals that quickly delve into their respective topics."
— Journal of Library & Information Services in Distance Learning
"Each chapter presents a concrete case study of one or another university and the principles guiding marketing, service provision or resource delivery activities. This is the most interesting feature of the book that turns it into an effective tool of best practice promotion and sharing."
— Information Research
"This complete tome is a great resource for librarians. Each chapter covers quite a different topic, but the book seamlessly joins them up under the context of 'mastering digital librarianship'. Upon completion of the book the reader has had a very thorough introduction to many concepts and themes and through the variety of case studies and practitioner accounts is ready to take some of the potential discussions and solutions back into the workplace."

Internode tops customer satisfaction poll
- 93 per cent of Internode very or fairly satisfied
- iiNet a close second
- 77 per cent of TPG customers satisfied
Internode has topped the latest Roy Morgan Research customer satisfaction survey, closely followed by iiNet.
Based on a survey of more than 6,000 Australian internet customers in the six months to May 2011, 93% of Internode customers described themselves as "Very satisfied" or "Fairly satisfied" with the service.
iiNet maintained its second position, with a 90% satisfaction score. Overall, the industry average is 74%, according to Roy Morgan.
Optus also scored above average, with 77% of customers reportedly satisfied with their provider, while Telstra remained just below average at 72%.
Despite a below average rating, Telstra did improve its score from the previous six months, as did Dodo (70%), Vodafone (63%) and 3 (62%).
Customer satisfaction with TPG slipped to 77% of Australians being "very" or "fairly" satisfied.
Andrew Braun, director mobile, internet and technology, Roy Morgan Research, said: "As the industry as a whole tries to improve customer satisfaction, the result can be seen in the gradual, yet slow, increase in the overall industry average to 74%.
"Both Telstra BigPond and OPTUSnet are important drivers of this improvement due to their considerable size.
"Interestingly, the volatility in satisfaction has featured primarily among some of the smaller service providers, such as TPG having lost 10% points since November 2010, whilst dodo has gained 12% points over the same period."
TPG suffered declining customer satisfaction in the two largest states, Victoria and NSW, down 6% points and 2% points respectively, according to the poll.

India's state-owned petroleum companies are borrowing a leaf from a paint company's memorable ad campaign some years ago ("Whenever you think of colour, think of us").
So when you think of Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), think of saffron. When you think of Bharat Petroleum Corporation (BPCL), think of light yellow and blue. And when you think of Hindustan Petroleum Corporation (HPCL), think of startling blue and red.
From December, several existing petrol stations will sport these colours on everything, from signages to canopies, as part of an image improvement, makeover and differentiator exercise.
IOC earlier sported rainbow colours, but has started switching to saffron (the BJP, no doubt, will cheer). Says IOC Director (marketing), NG Kannan, "Our primary intention is to consolidate and build on the existing strength of the IOC identity. Saffron, therefore, has been identified as a primary colour driver for the retail network."
"Bharat Petroleum is focusing on reliability and innovation with lighter shades of yellow and blue," says a senior BPCL official. This apart, BPCL is also balancing the yin and yang elements in its logos at its pumps.
The lit portion of the canopy will, as one company official puts it, have a "different shade of yellow to represent energy, life, an eastern outlook and the family, while blue has a modern, high-tech and western outlook which is being balanced by white, representing cool and fair. This shows waves in the form of water and was designed by Indian Institute of Technology consultants."
For its part, HPCL roped in a Malaysian-Australian consortium, the Petrodesign group, which designed and suggested the material that would be used in signages and so on. "HPCL's startling blue spine with red-lit arc and HP logo balanced on the spine has come after two years of planning.
The signage is a part of the retail branding strategy of the company, which was named 'Project Aakarshan'. We used our corporate colours and are using international material, an aluminium composite, from reputed companies for our signage", says a senior HPCL official.
HPCL has already fitted the new signages in 150 'Club HP' outlets and the number is expected to touch 500 by the end of this year. Within two-three years, all HPCL and BPCL outlets will have a new look.
All this, of course, is being done as part of a bigger gameplan to cope with the coming private sector competition. Essar Oil, for example, is opening petrol pumps in rural and semi-urban areas --- and these are painted red. Its 98 outlets in the western region are known as 'Essar ke lal pumps.'
Reliance Industries hired the UK-based Minale Tattersfield to design its outlets and has opted for blue, green and white as its primary colours --- colours that also apply to its telecommunications business. "The green represents green, clean fuel from Reliance," says an industry source. So whether its red, green or blue or saffron, whenever you see colour, think of petro companies.

There were five calls/non-calls that went against the Cougs at Auburn that stood out most.
"I didn't think it was awful officiating," said Walden. "I didn't question the (touchdown run) down the sidelines because on the replay, the two officials were looking straight back up the field and another one was far behind it. They didn't have an angle on the film whether he hit the line."
Walden said the play where the Auburn receiver didn't appear to have established possession until he was out of bounds probably wouldn't have been overturned on replay unless they had a better angle. And the kickoff return where Kristoff Williams appeared to be firmly held while being taken to ground was one that officials sometimes just miss, Walden said.
The two non-calls on pass interference were a different story. And you know you're about to hear some gold when Walden starts off by saying, "Well, I know I'm going to get in trouble for saying this, but...
"That was totally pass interference, there was no questioning it, what possessed him not to throw the flag, I don't know," said Walden. "But look, I've been watching southern officiating for a lot of years. When I was a coach, I would not ask for a mixed crew, I wanted (all) southern officials, because I knew I was going to get screwed less that way.
"When you split the crews, it was almost as if it upset those guys, like they thought you were almost bringing in other guys to watch over them. And then for every call you got, they'd make sure two would go against you."
It was an SEC crew that called the WSU-Auburn game. Every conference has their policy on officials for non-conference games and has since 1990. Before 1990, the general practice, established by the NCAA was that non-conference games were worked by split crews.
"Whenever I had a game like that and when I met with them before the game, I always tried to talk real southern," quipped Walden. "But the worst thing you can do is to go into an SEC area and expect to get calls."
AS FOR THE game itself, Walden gave high marks to the Cougar coaches and players.
"I don't know the total game plan but a lot of it feasted on underneath stuff and it worked very well," said Walden. "Overall, it was one of those things where I'm having a hard time figuring out why we didn't win it... I was totally shocked how well WSU played and I'm not afraid to admit that."
"I thought the Cougars played their tails off, and in an environment that does not breed success for a visiting team. I was really proud of those Cougar players."
COUGAR QUARTERBACK Connor Halliday has taken some cyberspace criticism for the three interceptions and a couple more passes that could have been picked. But Walden said you also need to look at the plays he did make in order to assess the whole picture.
"There was never a time I felt like they were playing better than us," said Walden. "Those big plays take a lot out of you. We make a lot of 'little' plays and first downs, but you've got to eliminate their big play. It was a nice effort and I thought Halliday played great except (for a few plays.) But I don't question those. That's football. Every play has a chance to work or not and sometimes you make a mistake. That's football."
The execution of the offensive line and the work of the running backs also had Walden smiling on Saturday.
"Another big pay that caught them off guard, and it tells you how much they're committing to WSU's underneath stuff, they ran that inside draw play on fourth down. It looked like a trap but it was really a draw, it shocked everyone... That was a great call, not sure if Connor called that or not but that was wonderful," said Walden.
"It was evident they thought their double formation stuff would put Auburn at a disadvantage and it did. Their underneath stuff, with that guy dragging underneath, that worked. What was amazing was towards the end, they've got the double slot into the boundary and they're in man cover, and it worked beautifully bringing that back out (to the RBs on screens).
"And when they ran double verticals, because the safety was working on the outside coming underneath, Halliday did a great job hitting him deep (Bobby Ratliff.)"
WE PRESSED WALDEN to offer some Monday morning quarterbacking and also to look ahead to next week against Southern Cal on the road. And he obliged.
"The only thing I can really say is I wish we would have punted rather than going for it in the first half," said Walden. "You're at mid-field and you're trailing by one and you're out-playing them. The positive thing is to punt. What's a negative is if you don't make it. I thought that was actually a semi-turning point.
"With 'SC, I'll tell you one thing -- what we did at Auburn was a lot better than what I saw from the University of Hawaii against 'SC. I have a much better feeling in my heart of hearts heading into USC. We've got an equal chance to win...based on what I saw from Hawaii-USC and WSU-Auburn. We've got a real good opportunity against a team we haven't had a lot of success against over the years," said Walden.

Wizard's First Rule chapter twelve summary and information.
Zedd, Richard, Kahlan, and Chase left Chase's house in the morning and began traveling to the pass through the boundary. At one point, Chase left the group to kill heart hounds and told them to continue down the path. The group required Zedd's magic (air) to cross a tampered bridge and Zedd destroyed it after so any unsuspecting person who tried to cross the bridge would not get hurt. Later, Chase caught up with them and explained what heart hounds were. When asked what color they were, he could not answer. Kahlan, however, was able to answer that they had tan fur and she knew because, when the boundary between D'Hara and the Midlands failed, the hearth hounds had started wandering around the Midlands during the day.
Chapter informationEdit
Key eventsEdit
- Chase explained what a heart hound was and Kahlan informed them that they had started wandering around the Midlands during the day.
Memorable linesEdit
- "Kahlan, if it had been you, I would have come after you" - Richard
- "And what else does the Midlands have that is even worse?" - Richard after hearing of the heart hounds. "Darken Rahl" - Kahlan
