watercolor (12" x 12")
I wanted to share what happened to me and my daughter on Wednesday morning. It was an usual morning for us...yet in a quick second became life changing. I was driving her to school, we were chatting while she was playing a game on my phone. We proceeded through an intersection ...out of the corner of my eye I saw a large white utility lift bucket truck...I was confused because he was going so fast and was very clear it wasn't stopping...I glanced up at the light confirming I had the green...by then it was too late...he had rammed into the my side of the car, dead in the middle. The impact was so hard that we were slammed and spun clear across the intersection and the SUV flipped over. There in the rubble of everything, as I am hanging upside down, I see my phone. I was able to call my husband and tell him what had just happened. Others on the scene called 911. My daughter and I were trapped (me hanging upside down) in the toppled and crunched overturned car for 30 to 40 minutes before the firemen could get us out.
It is by the grace of God that we are not only alive today...but that we were unharmed in this violent accident.
I wanted to share with you, not the exploits of the accident, but that throughout this horrible experience I felt the hands of God upon us. He was assuring me that we were okay....of which I could confidently assure our daughter that we were okay, and that as we were spinning around and flipping over, we were going to be okay. It is truly a miracle of God that we walked away unscathed, unmarred, and untouched. The only thing that touched us was the hands of God, holding us in that tumbling car.
So when titling today's painting...many came to mind: "Grateful" and "A New Beginning", but the one that stuck was "Untouched". Please enjoy.
P.S. On a humorous note...the first thing our daughter said while we were upside down trapped in the car "Mom, I think we are going to be late to school"

Disgruntled green card applicants from India sent hundreds of flowers to the US immigration agency on Tuesday to protest a recent policy flip-flop that hurt their quest for permanent residency.
The campaign that directed around a thousand flower deliveries to US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) director Emilio Gonzalez was modelled on a popular Hindi film Lage Raho Munnabhai promoting the peaceful protest methods of Mahatma Gandhi.
The protest was inspired by the abrupt reversal last week of an announcement issued in June offering expedited processing of green card petitions for thousands of skilled foreign professionals working under H1-B visas.
Thousands of holders of H1-B visas—reserved for skilled workers in computing, engineering and other special professions—scrambled and spent money on lawyers and medical exams to prepare green card applications for a 1 July deadline.
The abrupt closure of this path to a green card—proof of lawful permanent resident status—sent the applicants back to the queue for 2008, when they will have to spend more time and money, organizers of the protest said.
"The gist of the campaign was to peacefully convey disappointment and concern at how things have evolved in the last month," said Sivakanth Mundru, a Virginia-based computer systems analyst who was affected by the policy.
Gonzales said in a statement on the USCIS website that the agency would forward the flowers to Walter Reed Army Medical Centre and Bethesda Naval Hospital in Washington, DC, the main facilities treating US soldiers wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"We welcome the fact that the director at least acknowledged this campaign and we are happy that our flowers will be bringing some colour to our soldiers in those two medical hospitals," said Vikas Bajaj, a software developer in Wisconsin who helped organize the flower protest.
Although Indians staged the flower protest, the green card application setback affected skilled workers from China, Poland and many other countries. Many were unwilling or unable to buy houses or start companies until their residency was secure, they said.
The situation of foreign professionals working in the US while awaiting green cards was sidelined in this year's contentious immigration debate, which focused on illegal immigrants, Bajaj said over telephone from Wisconsin.
"We have never been in this country illegally, we are hard-working, we are skilled immigrants—and yet very little space is devoted to our issues," he said.
"The irony is, in this whole migration debate, our issues are probably easiest to solve," said Bajaj.

"Report from the Front" is one of the Easter Egg letters in the game, which can be dropped by all of monsters. The letters contain personal problems or stories.
"Such sweet music, the wailing of men.
The siege continues, My Lord. My blade cuts through their soldiers like a scythe through wheat. I feast upon thier sorrow, their despair. We have taken the Styx and the Tower of Judgement, and even the fields of Elysium themselves have begun to fall. They send their greatest heroes, man of legends, yet they are no match for the power of your armies. We fall upon them like locusts upon the field, ripping their very souls from existence. Not even the comfort of death awaits those foolish enough to oppose us.
Soon, our dominance shall be complete. You shall hold the world of living in the palm of your hand, a bauble for your amusement. I pray to Your Eminence for that day to come, pray for the day when the death can stop -- and the torture begin."

Sprecication of Letters Patent Patented Sept. 24,1907.
Mmmm mes inventarse, nos. anni No. 545,754.
To all Ywhom 'd "my coneau. Y Y I ilu it known that l, JOHN F, .PQITEHMM'R a citizen o tho United States, residing at Missoulmrin the county of 'lissnuln. and Stute of Montone., haw invented new and usm-lul Improvements in Cetnrneninl Appliances, of
which the iliowing is s. specification.
This invention relatori to ctiimenial appliances, the object of tlninvention heilig to provide e simple and vliet-tive device oi this character which is coxnfortahlh to the wearer und by which staining of the clothing is nreventcd.
-The device includes other objects and advantages yulrich with the foregoing will he hereinafter fully set forth, l
In the drawings accompanying and forming s; part of this specification l show in detail one ormrof embodiment of the invention which to enable those skilled in the art to practice seidy invenlion will be particularly described hereinafter, while the novelty of my inven` tion will he included in the claims hereinafter madeA Referring to the drawings, Figure l. is a. perspective View oi an appliance including my invention. Fig. 2
is a top plan ViewV ofthc absorbent carrier. 3 is n cross sectional View of the said carrier, the section being ken throu h thelorwnrd end thereof. Fir'. 4 is a View g e corresponding to Fig. 2 of a slightly modified form of carrier,
Like characters refer to like parts throughout the sov-l `eroi figures of tliedrawings. v
A ceremonial appliance involving my invention ini ciudes in its make-up an absorbent-carrier as 2 which muy he suspended for use in any desirable way, for instance, by means of. the y belt or girdle 3 adapted to lit around the Waist or'othor suitable part of the body. This belt muy be dtochnhly supported in place in any desirable Way, iur example, by means o ji. button onV one of the ends thereof engaging in o buttonhole in the other end. lThe absorbentcorrier may he connected with the belt in any desirable way. l find a cordes 4 satisfactory for this purpose, ther cord when employed being so related with the belt as to producen pendent front loop as?) and a pendent rear loop es A "The cord is preferably so associated with the belt that the-former can have a sliding movement with respect to the belt.
This may be .accoinplshed by freely possng the sides.
of the cord through openings in the'V holtandior strength those openings may he eyeleted. 'lhere are two rear openings, two opposite pairs o f side openings and two [ront openings a-ll denoted hy 'land the cord can be so passed .through said openings ss to he practically wholly upon the exterior of the belt und thereby not chale the user.
The :einer 2 is adopted to support a suitable absorbent. This absorbent may be of mutable characA ter; for example, it muy consist of a mass oi cotton laid 5 in the carrier. The carrier 2 is advantageously rhode in theiiorm of van mperiorate receptacle so that it can receive the mess oi cotton and menstrualiud passing oligo the cotton without poelhility o the fluid scatter- The carrier is preershlfclosed at its forward ond '6 and widened at' its rear end, such construction preventing the escape o fluid from the opposite ends o the cdrrier o'r receptacle. The latter moi trough or channel construction and its lsndierge reerwerd from the iront closed end thereof, and ht therefor there 6:
is n, triangular extension or tab as 8, the purpose o which will hereindter appear.
- Along the front portion of the upper edgeuo the cor-Y rier or receptacle is a stifening medium which may consist of wire as 9, which is covered preferably by, the 7l material of which the careror receptacle is composed and this material is ordinarily of non-aheorhent nature, rubber sheeting or oil cloth being suitable ior the purpose. The wire 9 does not extend the complete length o the carrier rom front to rear, .but is preferably located et the iront to preserve the shape of the forward end of the carrier and permit s certain amonth play of the intermediate and rear portionsthere.
From the forward closed end of the carrier or receptacle I have shown a t'ob as 10 extending,` soid tab being 80 equipped with a hook as ll to detachably-engoge the eight of ui@ loop 5.
The triangular tab to which VI have referred is shown as furnished Awith a hook'as 12 adopted to detaohably engage an eye as 13 oil the lower end of a'tsb as 14 inter- 85 looped preferably `permoinentlyf the night of the rear loop 6. This tab 14 in preferably elstc soos to permit inuse a certain arnou'ntio endwise motion oi the carrier or receptacle 2.
To hold the shape of the carrier E'fat ther-ear I prefer V9i) to use a stiflening device as 15 of loopforin which may talge the shape shown in Fig. 2 or that represented in Figx 4 and which may consist of a, piece of wire bent to produce the desired loop. This stiffening device 15 is preferably covered by the materiel oi which the csr- 975 rier is composed.
I have shown as extending outward from the upper edges of the trough shaped carrier 2 pliable or exihle flaps as 16 which may he made from the same material as thntfrom which the carrier itself mnade and these V parte may if desired he integral. In fact I preer to make the receptacle and flaps from one continuous piece of material. The flaps conform closely to the body of the wearer and prevent chafing. The receptacleis of heavier material than the flaps and is rela# tively non-elastic. Y
In operation the belt is applied to the wearer,- the hook ll is connected with the loop and the hook 12 is Connected with the eye 13. T0 rr-muve the absorbent from the warrior the ulluwing fperaiun is usual. The front hk 1l is disengaged from the loop 5 and the rear loop 6 is drawn downward or elongated without` disconnecting the hook l2 from the eye 13, this n-sult I l `being easily accomplished hy virtue of the sliding relation bet'ween the cord 4 and the hell 3. When the rear loop (i is elongated to the requisite vxtL-nl the rial rier mn he drawn forward anrl the albumin-ni removed and a. fresh supply put in its piave, lifter which thv shortened front'lloop 5 van liv brought tu its original g Conrlilunby a draw duwnward upon the same. and i when this original comlitiun is reached, the hunk l1 van he engaged with Raid loup. It is, thvrefnre, unl nvm'ssary to disconnezt the endless corri 4 imm the bult 3 or to disonnect the carrier 2 from the cord when it i vbvromeu neessar tu supply a rloan absorbent. A i
I have em lo ed the term alysnrimnt-cnmer" here 1 rior capable of carrying an absorbent. I du not mean l necesarily that the Carrier is of absorbent material fur it is preferably of non-absorbent material. i

Yes / No Minister: how tax tribunals kept momentum when the goalposts moved
Our job was to deliver a new online service helping people appeal to the tax tribunal once fees were introduced.
Our job was to deliver a new online service helping people appeal to the tax tribunal once fees were introduced.
The start of the year is sometimes known as Divorce January due to the rise in enquiries about separation that happens after the holidays.
How the right content has eased significant business change and helped to maintain quality control for court staff processing applications for help with fees.
Processing applications for help with fees used to be a time-consuming and complex task. Adding guidance to the new digital service has reduced processing time and provided support when it's needed.
Making sure that your service contains the latest content and design isn't easy. Here's how MOJ Digital teams are tackling the challenge.
How we made a new and improved intranet for the department.
We recently redesigned the paper form to make it easier for people to get help paying their court fees, ahead of developing an online service.
Working out of Manchester's magistrates' court, we're developing a product that fulfils a defined user need and can be deployed nationwide.
An important aspect of digital transformation at the MOJ is the adoption of an 'inside out' approach. This means that systems and ways of working are being improved internally as well as externally.
A newcomer's first steps into the world of MOJ Digital.

As you are aware, I occasionally participate in the various
Internet business forums out there on the web. And, occasionally,
I see comments that I cannot let pass without comment. Today
was just such a day.
Here is the message that prompted my typing fingers to get to
work. This post was seen at:
Subject: Re: Article Submission Marketing
Affiliate marketing is, after all, supposed to mean more
money for less work and becoming a full-time writer
certainly isn't my idea of less work.
Here is my response:
Article writing and submission works. Of course, if you know
who I am, you also know that I have a reason to be biased.
I run http://thePhantomWriters.com , so I have been involved in
this industry for a long time. In the early days, my business
model was designed around writing articles for people who did
not have the time, skills or confidence to write their own
From the beginning, I understood full well that the value of
an article is not in the words and the flow, but in the ability
of getting the article in front of the greatest number of
publishers who would actually consider reprinting the article.
I dedicated a portion of my program to developing methods to
get articles written for my clients into the hands of the
largest possible audience.
In November of 2002, I began offering my distribution service
as a stand-alone service. In September of 2003, I stopped
writing articles for clients and devoted my entire business to
growing my distribution service and my distribution reach with
the service. Right now, I am able to reach more than 12,000
publishers and webmasters who have requested to receive articles
for consideration.
As you can see, I really am biased to this method of Internet
promotion. Despite this, the method does work. Until 2004, I
promoted my business utilizing ONLY article writing. In the
early days of 2004, I purchased two long-term ads in targeted
websites. In July of 2004, I opened up my first Google Adwords
When it comes to advertising, I play it very conservatively.
When it comes to growing my distribution reach, I make it a
daily journey. When it comes to writing my own articles to
promote my own business, I try hard to do one article per week
averaged over the month.
Promoting with articles works for me and my business. Promoting
with articles also works for the more than 100 online writer's
my company represents. If promoting with articles did not work,
then my clients are throwing their money away. Instead, they
keep coming back, and some have made a commitment to themselves
for one article per week to be written and distributed.
I have taken the long way around here, but I have a reason.
While I do not offer ghost writing services at this time, there
are in fact 100's of writer's out there in the world who would
be happy to write your articles for you. Many of these writer's
are very good at what they do.
You might have to pay $300 to get one article written, but if
your time is worth anything at all, this $300 investment will
more than pay for itself down the road.
Remember what Kathy said previously in this thread, "I have
articles that bring me steady streams of traffic even though
the articles were published years ago."
This applies even to articles I have written. I wrote my first
in March of 1999. My second was written in July of 1999. My
second article has been distributed twice in those five years
and does get published again and again. It was last published
in July of 2004. I have more than 65 in circulation and all of
these articles still generate traffic for my sites.
If you honestly believe that writing your own articles is too
much work, then you should shop around for a ghost writer whose
style you like and whose article topics appeal to your target
Thank you for listening to my ramble.
P.S. A number of my clients are regular participants in this
message board. Visit my archives to see who you might

ECM, at your service!
There was a time when just getting control of enterprise content was a big achievement—knowing where the content was, being able to search a central repository, identifying the latest version of a document and so on. Even now, that control cannot be taken for granted. Many organizations struggle to manage content that is scattered across multiple devices, departments and SharePoint sites

Best Practices in Information Governance
Information is by nature non-governable.
But people are. Whether you use automation or policies or both— the way people USE information can be controlled. There are plenty of solutions available to help you. If you have compliance, regulatory or legal-risk issues—and that describes everyone—there is an answer for your information governance quandary.
This KMWorld White Paper will look for the BEST solutions in managing and leveraging business and organizational assets to improve performance and protect against risk.

Best Practices in Cognitive Computing
Cognitive computing is not science fiction. From chatbots to self-driving cars, the market is evolving, and it's on track to disrupt our everyday lives. At the most basic level, a cognitive information system needs to be capable of extracting relevant information from big and diverse data sets to make intelligence decisions. Of course, that is easier said than done. Share how your company is providing the resources that are paving the way forward in this exciting movement by participating in this White Paper opportunity.

Best Practices for the Mobile Workforce
It's hard to imagine a larger effect than the social and mobile workforce has had on the everyday activity on knowledge workers.
The ability to take work home (or work from home entirely) and conduct business through social media-driven interaction has changed the entire landscape.
But it has also changed businesses, as organizations try to cope with a world in which employees walk off the grounds with critical corporate information on their handhelds, and where communication and collaboration don't necessarily happen by walking to the office next door.

Super smooth shaver
This is a great safety razor for beginners as well as people on the go. Moderately agressive and looks great.
The order arrived before the time stated on the tracking. Awesome! The razors are fantastic. Have just tried the one so far. Its great. I love dealing with Fendrihan every time orders have been on or before time for delivery and always right. Thanks Rob.
I'm running an Astra SP blade in mine, have yet to get a bad shave from. It is less aggressive than the Fendrihan Long Handle Open Comb but only slightly more aggressive than Albastron that has become my daily driver. Quality appears to be first rate, no hesitation recommending this razor to someone looking for an open comb to start with.

I made this one for my dad's birthday! Unlike my mom who likes plain and simple desserts, my dad and I like pretty much anything rich and decadent. So I knew he would like this one. Easy to make and addicting! All of my aunts and uncles at the party loved it too! There wasn't even any leftover for my dad to take home!
- 1 box yellow cake mix (& ingredients to make cake)
- 2 boxes (small) instant banana pudding
- 4 C milk
- 8 oz whipped topping
- 20 vanilla wafers, crushed
- Sliced bananas
- Follow the directions on the cake mix box to prepare the actual cake. Prepare it in a 9 x 13" pan. When golden, remove from over and let cool for a few minutes.
- While cake is baking, put vanilla wafers into a sealed zip lock bag and crush them any way you like! (Nice way to get your anger out!)
- When just slightly cooled, use the end of a wooden spoon (the handle end) to poke holes into the baked cake. Make the holes big enough for the pudding to seep into and go deep enough with the spoon that you hit the bottom of the pan.
- Next, prepare your pudding mixture. Combine your 4 cups of milk and the instant pudding mix; whisk until fully combined and there are no lumps.
- Pour the pudding mixture over the entire cake, taking care to get it into all your holes. Use the spoon to help really get it into the cake and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for about two hours... or until set. Top with whipped topping, crushed vanilla wafers and sliced banana!

Chapter 1
"Fratello! Fratello, look! Our letters are here!"
Lovino looked up from his book as his younger twin bounced his way into their shared room, a pair of large white envelopes with the Hetalia Academy insignia pressed against his chest. Oh, so it was that day already, he realized.
"Fratello, aren't you excited?" asked the exuberant Feliciano, nearly bouncing on the balls of feet.
He shook his head at his twin, snorting. "They probably say almost the same thing as they did last year, Feli. No need to be excited."
Feliciano, still all smiles, beamed at him. "Come on, fratello! Don't you want to know your schedule at least? Maybe we'll have some classes together!" If possible, the younger Italian boy's smile got wider. "Maybe Ludwig and I have the same schedule again like last year! I'll have to call him and check!"
"Are you still dating that potato bastard?" Lovino asked surprised, the prominent, Vargas curl straightening with his sudden outrage. He really couldn't see what his twin found so attractive about that German guy. For one, he was such a stiff necked, no nonsense jerk- the exact opposite of his baby brother. He couldn't quite figure out how they had managed to get along since last year let alone actually have a relationship.
Feli giggled, snapping him away from his thoughts on why that potato didn't deserve his charming, little brother. "Of course, I am! You're being very silly, fratello!"
The younger twin carefully placed the envelope beside Lovino and left him to open it up on his own. Once he was downstairs, he thought carefully about what to make for dinner. He had decided on making classic spaghetti with meatballs and was already preparing his ingredients when he heard his brother yell from upstairs.
"Oh, no! Hell, no!" Feli dropped the meatball he'd been rolling accidentally. "That bastardo! I'm gonna kill that fucking Brit!"

Matthew read through the catalog of hockey gear, mentally calculating his allowance for that year and how much he was going to have to save up for the really cool hockey stick he'd seen.
"Mattie, look what I got!" his older brother yelled from the hall outside before bursting into his room. "Our letters are here!"
Surely enough, the stark, white envelopes were in his hands. Always the cheery one, his older brother flopped on his bed and handed him his envelope, looking at him expectantly.
"Aren't you going to open yours?"
Alfred shook his head, the errant curl on his head fluttering in the air. "Nah," he said, waving a hand dismissively. "I know what's in it already. I wanna know what Arthur put in yours, though. Come on, open it up! Don't leave me hanging here, Mattie!"
Matthew raised a brow suspiciously. The only time his brother looked so eager and excited like a chipmunk on drugs was when he knew something no one else knew. Damn. What could Arthur have put in here?
He looked at his envelope warily and decided to just go through with opening it. Careful as always, he lifted the flap and took out what was inside. There were the usual things one would find: his letter of acceptance, list of required supplies, elective subjects he was qualified to accept during the year and... huh. A pale pink colored envelope with the imprinted symbol of the Queen of Hearts.
Double damn. He heard his brother squeal in the background before strong arms squeezed the breath out of him. He was so going to murder Alfred.

Enchanting piano music echoed through the halls of the Edelstein family's summer home, the servants enjoying the lovely music while they went about their chores. Inside the music room, the heir to the family's fortune sat in front of the grand piano, long, slender fingers breezing through the keys with amazing expertise.
A knock on the door followed by the creaking of heavy oak made him pause, turning blue-violet eyes to he elderly butler carrying a tray. The tray had a white envelope with the Hetalia Academy's insignia imprinted on the front.
"Young master, your school letter has arrived," announced the servant, approaching him and setting the envelope on the low table inside the room. "I shall leave it here. Do you require anything?"
The boy closed the shutter over the piano's keys almost lovingly before standing up. He walked gracefully toward the butler and thanked him, taking the envelope in his hands.
"I don't need anything, thank you, Michaels. You may leave now," he said, opening the envelope on his own.
The usual things were there and something else that made dread bloom in his chest. A rose-colored envelope... he'd heard from older students what it meant when you received one. He hoped valiantly that this was all a mistake.
Opening the smaller envelope, he found his name written on a piece of scented stationary and his hope that it was all a bad joke died a little.
"Messr. Roderich Edelstein,
Congratulations for being accepted to Hetalia Academy for your second year. It would please us greatly if you'll be able to join us for afternoon tea at the Rose Lounge on the third of June at three o'clock as we have much to discuss for the incoming school year.
Failure to attend would mean forfeiting your enrollment.
Sincerely yours,
The Former Queen of Hearts
& The Reigning Queen of Cloves"
This was no invitation. It was a threat! The heir crumpled the note with as much grace as he could muster.

Hetalia Academy was a remote school in an island off the coast of Japan, connected to the rest of civilization only by bridge. Its students come from all over the world and most stay in the dormitories long before the school year officially starts.
Deep inside the dormitories of Hetalia Academy was a room no one save a selected few could enter. It was right in front of the expansive flower gardens and away from most students' sight. Cream-colored wallpaper covered the walls from top to bottom and blue velvet curtains webbed with golden thread hung from the large bay windows. Classic, wooden furniture was placed strategically throughout the room.
Sitting by the open bay windows of the room, two blondes were enjoying a nice cup of tea, eagerly waiting for their guests though they didn't show it.
"I'm sorry if I caused any trouble asking you to come here on such short notice, Tino," said one blonde as he stirred his tea. "I hope you weren't busy."
The other blonde, Tino, shook his head with a pleasant smile, selecting a sandwich from the platter prepared for them. "It's no trouble at all, Arthur. Although, I have to admit, Berwald wasn't very happy about it. It was fortunate that Alfred called him at the same time you did. Of course, he'd have declined if Ivan wasn't there."
Arthur smirked. "Yes, what a coincidence."
"I'm sure," Tino replied pleasantly, his eyes mischievously bright. "So, when will they be arriving? I'm really looking forward to meeting them in person."
Arthur checked his watch, rather prominent eyebrows furrowed. "They should be here any moment now."
As soon as the words escaped his lips, hurried stomping met their ears and the doors slammed open, admitting a flushed, furious Italian boy.
"You fucking asshole!"
The boy was simply beautiful, the Finnish appraised critically, eyeing the newcomer with interest. Dark brown hair, tinged slightly red when touched just right with light framed the small, heart shaped face. Expressive brown eyes burned with rage and Tino found himself thinking that he'd be the perfect partner for the new King of Spades.
Tino nodded his approval imperceptibly at Arthur and smiled at the Briton who coughed into his hand, both suddenly remembering the former Queen's own litany of curse words when he had received his own rose envelope. It would have made all his brothers proud had they been there to hear it.
"What's the big idea, sending that fucking envelope to me, you bastard?" the Italian yelled at Arthur. "It better be a mistake 'cause there's no way I'm doing any of this shit!"
Tino couldn't help it. The Queen of Cloves promptly fell into giggles as Arthur rolled his eyes. Lovino Vargas looked so adorable, like an angry, little hamster and he was definitely perfect for their job.
"What's so funny?" the bad tempered boy asked defensively, brows furrowed.
Tino wiped a tear at the corner of his eyes, taking deep breaths as he gathered himself. "I'm sorry. It's just that you remind me so much of Arthur back then."
"WHAT?" Lovino yelled, the errant strand of hair standing straight up as if in protest. Ah, so that was the legendary Vargas curl. "There's no way in hell I'm like that stuck up pansy!"
"Tino, I resent that. I am, in no way, like this brat," Arthur said derisively. "I was much, much worse than him." He turned acid green eyes toward the Italian, who promptly stepped back from the venomous gaze. "And for your information, Mr. Vargas, in the next two years of your life here in the academy, you'll be a so-called pansy."
Whatever retort Lovino had, died a swift death at the approaching sound of footsteps and two voices, one definitely excited and the other uncertain. All eyes turned to the open doors expectantly where a boy with sunshine gold hair burst in, dragging a younger boy behind him.
"The hero is here!" announced none other than Alfred F. Jones, himself, student council president and star quarterback of Hetalia Academy's football team. Behind him, stood his younger brother, looking around the room with awe. "Hey, Iggy, Tino!"
"Hello, Alfred," Tino returned with a nod. "How's the meeting with Berwald?"
"Meeting?" Alfred repeated, confused, before he remembered, face suddenly alight by the wide grin on his face. "Oh, that! Ivan's taking care of it. He won't need me for a while."
"I hope that doesn't mean you left him with all the work like last time," Arthur asked wth a raised brow, arms crossed over his chest.
The president laughed nervously. "Ahaha, nothing like that, Iggy, I mean, he's doing great- anyway, this is my little bro, Mattie." He pulled the slighter boy forward and held him for Tino and Arthur to see, beaming proudly. "Mattie, you already know Arthur and you probably saw Tino last year."
Purple eyes shyly met the kind gazes. "Um, hi."
"It's nice to see you again, Matthew," Arthur greeted.
"It's great to finally meet you," said Tino, both the greetings making the younger boy blush. His eyes were an unusual color and they were vivid even with the glasses on. His blonde hair was longer than his older brother's and they curled and waved around his elfin face and he had such a sweet smile that Tino wondered if he'd be alright as the Queen of Hearts. He'd heard from Arthur that the new King of Hearts was quite a handful but then again, Matthew wouldn't be chosen if he couldn't handle it. "This is Lovino Vargas. We will be working together from now on with one other from your year."
"Hey, I never agreed to any of this!" came the loud protest from the Italian boy Matthew recognized from one of his classes.
"It's not like you have any choice," Arthur muttered, ignoring Lovino's variety of Italian and English curses. He'd heard and said much worse and Tino could attest to that.
"Um, I didn't know we had a room like this," Matthew whispered shyly, more to himself but Alfred heard him.
"Of course we do, Mattie. You just haven't seen it before," said Alfred cheerfully. "Where do you think Iggy and Tino disappear to when they have to dress up and stuff? Well, you'll be spending most of your time here anyway." He didn't notice his brother and the small Italian blanch at the idea as his eyes zoned in on his wristwatch. "Whoa, look at the time! I'd better get back to the meeting before I miss the whole thing!"
"I hope you don't regret choosing those three as the new kings," said Arthur.
"Nah, they're good. Just a handful but not worse than us back then," said Alfred. He strode over to the smaller blonde and dipped his head low enough to give him a peck on the lips. "See you later, Iggy," he murmured against soft lips, ignoring the Italian's dropped jaw, his brother's wide-eyed stare and Tino's knowing smile. He turned to his brother and Lovino and gave them a wink and a thumbs up. "You guys do your best, okay?"
Without turning back, he rushed out of the room and went on his way to his own meeting, leaving the four boys in a slightly awkward silence.
Arthur cleared his throat. "So, the only one we are waiting for is Roderich Edelstein. We'll officially begin our own meeting when he arrives."
"So, are you two, like, together?" Lovino prodded carefully, watching the blonde closely for a reaction. This might be good blackmail material, after all. He turned to Matthew, noticing how surprised he was and said, "aren't you living with your brother? Didn't you know?"
Matthew shook his head hard. "I knew they were close. I just didn't know how much."
"I'm surprised you only just found out," Tino remarked. "They've been together for almost three years now and they weren't exactly hiding their relationship. They weren't called the King and Queen of Hearts for nothing, you know."
"That's true and the whole school already knows it so don't get any ideas, Vargas," the Briton added as he sat himself on one of the settees in the room, signaling for the others to follow. "You'll just make a fool of yourself."
"But what about the King of Diamonds?" asked the Italian, a little confused. "I heard you have something going on with him."
Lovino supposed being gay in an all-boys school was pretty natural but he really couldn't understand how anyone could be attracted to the scary Russian guy. Sure, he was handsome and he seemed friendly but there was just something about him that made his skin crawl. In the few times that he'd seen the guy last year, he was friendly only with Kirkland and there was some kind of rivalry going on between him and Jones after the Queen of Diamonds left.
"It was complicated," said Arthur, drifting into the memories of the past.
"Still is," Tino quipped.
"But it's getting better," said Arthur with a nod. For a moment, gone was the stern, stiff Briton. His face softened and a small, soft smile lit his face up, his green eyes alight with a gentleness witnessed only rarely and by chance as he stared at nothing, deep in thought.
The change was so dramatic, Lovino and Matthew thought they were looking at a different person. Suddenly, they were not looking at Arthur Kirkland but at the Queen of Hearts. They had seen that look only once on different occasions last year. It was the smile that the Queen of Hearts bestowed on his King, the smile that made him a legend among the past Queens.
Lovino could have sworn he could see white feathers floating about him. And just as suddenly, it disappeared behind the usual frown.
"Not that it's any of your business," he said curtly. Just like that, the moment was broken.
There was a slight knock from the doors and they turned to the elegant brunette, standing proud and aloof like the last Queen of Spades, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose as his eyes roamed the room.
"Ah, you're finally here, Mr. Edelstein," said Arthur. "Please come in so we can begin."

Arthur and Tino sat on the settee together while the other three boys settled themselves on separate chairs opposite them. The tea service which had been prepared earlier was already cold and forgotten but none paid any more attention to it.
All of them were keen on finishing this business as soon as possible.
"We haven't exactly introduced ourselves properly yet," Arthur started. "I am Arthur Kirkland, secretary for the student council and former Queen of Hearts."
"I'm Tino Väinämöinen, current Queen of Cloves," said the Finnish boy with a slight nod. "You probably already know why you were asked to meet us today and that is to take the positions of the remaining queens."
Roderich scoffed. "I hardly call threatening to bar us from enrolling 'asking'. If anything, it makes me wonder how Hetalia Academy became an elite school with this process in effect."
"We were threatened much the same way," Tino informed him happily. "And you really can't decline the position if you want to stay in the academy. If by any chance you were allowed to enroll, though, ten points will be taken out of your average every semester that you should be in position. Seeing as our lowest possible grade would be eighty-five percent, you should maintain a grade of at least ninety-five to pass."
Arthur nodded his agreement at Tino's explanation.
Lovino and Matthew paled and Roderich was livid.
"But that's unfair!"
"This is preposterous! It's unheard of!"
"Say what you will but that's the policy of this school way before we got here," Arthur said flatly, crossing his arms over his chest. "And don't bother going to the Board to complain or some government agency or something. They don't care what the school does as long as it maintains its high standing. I know for a fact that most of the Board of Directors were Queens themselves."
"We met them last year," Tino added helpfully as he saw the confused and stricken looks of the three boys in front of them. "You'll meet them sometime soon, too."
Roderich coughed. "Assuming that we would take the position."
"Like I said, you really don't have a choice," said Arthur with a shrug. "Assuming that you want to stay in this school. If you don't, then we'll just find replacements."
Tino raised his hands to appease the now fuming brunette. "Why don't you hear us out first before rejecting the idea?"
Lovino stood from his chair. "Well, why not look for a replacement now? We obviously don't want the job!"
The green eyes that had been so soft if only for a second, hardened like chips of ice and Tino, who had been so welcoming and so pleasant, frowned disapprovingly. Tension was thick at the sudden silence and time seemed to crawl.
It was Tino who spoke. "You were chosen first and for good reason. We've never had to look for replacements before and would prefer it that way. The replacements would be just that- replacements."
"But how?" Matthew muttered before anyone else could speak. "How were we picked?" He stuttered as everyone's attention shifted to him. "I-I mean there should be a lot of us you can choose from. Right?"
The two older boys thought for a moment. "Well," Arthur started, chin cupped in his hand, "primarily, you were picked because of your physical appearance." He ignored the younger ones' indignant squawks. Tino covered his chuckles with a cough. "The rest, though, is a secret. You'll know someday."
"Anyway, we're getting ahead of ourselves," said Tino. "We'll start with what a Queen actually is." He turned to Arthur who nodded for him to continue. "As you know there are four Kings chosen for their exceptional talent and academic excellence. They are the voice of the student body and they work with the student council to make life better for the students. They are chosen leaders and they represent the best among the best of our students.
"Of course, even the strongest need support and that's where we come in." Tino took a deep breath. "Your most important duty is to take care of your Kings, to be their helping hand, to give them encouragement and strength."
"And be their common sense whenever applicable," Arthur helpfully added grimly.
Tino laughed a little. "Yeah, that, too."
"Amongst other things, Queens are the inspiration of students. If the Kings are their ideals, we- or you, rather, are the idols of the school. You'll understand it better once school starts and Tino and I will be working with you," said Arthur. He rolled his eyes as Lovino gawked at him. "Yes, Vargas, it's true. I don't want you ruining our reputations."
"A Queen's term ends once he graduates or if he is deemed no longer able to perform his duties," Tino paused as Matthew raised his hand.
"If that was the case, then there should have been a new Queen of Diamonds right after Wang Yao left for China, shouldn't there?"
Tino shook his head and Arthur's eyes darkened at the mention of the name. "Simply put, a Royal Pair will not be broken even if one of them is already gone. Ivan would still be King if he wasn't elected as the Vice President for the student council and he would have to do his duties without a Queen."
"We can only select replacements before the new term begins but never afterward," Arthur helpfully supplied. "Now, we'll discuss one of the very important aspects of this job I think you'll enjoy."
Tino nodded. "Let's talk about the benefits."

Author's note: So this is a little plot bunny that had wanted out since last month. I just had to write it or else it would bug the hell out of me until I can't write anything at all.
Tell me if it's worth continuing and don't worry about Scarves and Roses, I'll finish it. I just had to get this one out of my system.
Reviews are very much appreciated!
Phew! Much longer than the first post!

Reviews of Life Care Center of Hilliard | Nursing Home
Barbara005516 March 27, 2017
I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident
My friend was in Life Care Center for rehab. They were very good to her there, but it was more of a hospital atmosphere where she shared a room. It was good; there was very good therapy. They do have private rooms, but she was in a semi-private. They had some basic activities. I don't think they had as many as where she is now because it was more of a medical setting. Medicare paid for her stay in this nursing home.

I am a friend or relative of a resident
I just moved my mother to Life Care Center. We chose this facility because it's a little closer to us and it's in the state. I've talked some patients there and they seemed to have a good feedback about the facility and they liked it there. We like everything there. The staff are all professional. Her room is nice. The food there is excellent and my mother likes it.

amiibo FAQ's
What do amiibo do?
Amiibo are interactive figures of Nintendo and other well-known characters that can be used in compatible amiibo games. Through amiibo characters you can access extra content, for example, using the Yoshi amiibo in Mario Kart 8 unlocks the Yoshi outfit for your Mii racer and, the Link amiibo in Hyrule Warriors unlocks a new weapon.
In Super Smash Bros, you can train your amiibo by fighting with and against them.
What do I need to use amiibo?
To use amiibo, all you need is an amiibo figure and the game that it is compatible with, to scan an amiibo into a game just place it on the icon below the D-Pad.
If you are using the new Nintendo 3DS or new Nintendo 3DS XL, you will not need any extra accessories as you can place the amiibo figure on the Touchscreen.
To use the amiibo on the Nintendo 2DS, 3DS or 3DS XL, you will need the Near Field Communication (NFC) reader/writer accessory that will be available separately in 2015.
Which games are each amiibo compatible with?
To see which games are amiibo compatible, please click here.
Are all amiibo compatible with every title?
Not all amiibo can be used in every amiibo compatible game, to see which amiibo can be used in specific games please check the amiibo compatibility charts above.
Are amiibo figures specific to their collection title?
Amiibo figures are not specific to the collection they come from, for example, the Super Smash Bros. Mario figurine can be used in Mario Party 10, just as the Classic Collection Mario figurine can be used in Super Smash Bros.
The only real difference between the figures is their appearance.
Can I play as my amiibo in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U?
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, you won't control your amiibo figure directly. Instead, you'll train your amiibo by battling with or against them, and by sending them into battle against other players' amiibo figurines, over time they will level up and become a more effective fighter.
Will I be able to use amiibo immediately with Super Smash Bros. on 3DS?
Super Smash Bros. for 3DS will be amiibo compatible after software and system updates to enable this function. Players using the Nintendo 2DS, 3DS or 3DS XL will need the NFC Reader*, which will be available during 2015. Players with the New Nintendo 3DS or New Nintendo 3DS XL will be able to use amiibo by placing them on the touchscreen.
Can I still play amiibo-compatible games without owning an amiibo?
You can still enjoy amiibo compatible games without an amiibo. The amiibo figurines are completely optional and aren't essential to gameplay.
If I store game data on an amiibo, does that mean I can't use that amiibo with other amiibo compatible games?
There are two types of amiibo compatible games: read/write games and read games.
Read/Write games read information from the amiibo and then write over the data if it is updated whilst playing an amiibo compatible game. If you have already stored information on an amiibo for Super Smash Bros. then you will be unable to use that amiibo in Mario Party 10, unless you clear the amiibo of Super Smash Bros. data.
If the game uses the Read function, then you can use an amiibo that already has data from a Read/Write data, as the amiibo is Read to unlock content but nothing is written to the amiibo.
What can I modify in the "amiibo Settings" Wii U system settings?
In the Wii U system settings, you can register your amiibo with a nickname and link it to a Mii in the "Register Owner and Nickname" option.
In the "Delete amiibo Game Data" option, you can delete the game data already saved to the amiibo, allowing you to then use the amiibo with a different Read/Write game.
If you'd like to completely wipe your amiibo clean of all data, including nickname and Mii data, use the "Reset amiibo" option. But remember, once you have reset an amiibo, the data is gone.
How much game data can I store on an amiibo?
You can store game data for single "Read/Write" game on an amiibo.
How do I delete game data from an amiibo?
To delete the game data from an amiibo go to, "Wii U System Settings", then select "Delete amiibo Game Data" and follow the onscreen instructions provided.
Can I transfer game data from one amiibo to another?
No, unfortunately game data cannot be moved between amiibo figures.
Can I repair or modify my amiibo?
It's not possible to repair or modify the amiibo figures, if you are experience issues with your amiibo, please contact Nintendo Customer Support.
Do amiibo require batteries?
amiibo figures do not require batteries.

Have fun while earning money with online lottery scratch off tickets
While conventional scratch to win lottery tickets are only functional and require robotic scratching on the dull tickets it is possible to move to online scratch games which permit you to have a great time whilst earning money through online lottery scratch off tickets britishlottorandom. These scratch off tickets or cards can be really enjoyed in the form of various colorful online games that offer exceptional odds of receiving some considerable money.
