Glasgow hospital's £1m interactive play area is European first
2nd June 2015
Yorkhill Children's Charity has unveiled a £1million state-of-the-art, fun-filled interactive environment at the heart of the new Royal Hospital for Sick Children.
It forms part of the charity's vision to enhance waiting areas at the new children's hospital in Glasgow – which opens its doors on 15 June.
The installation was designed and delivered by Glasgow Science Centre and funded through a £1m donation from the Hugh Fraser Foundation.
Designed to appeal to a diverse range of visitors, the installation will take centre stage in the Outpatients' Atrium, with further installations in the Imaging and Diagnostics and A&E waiting areas.
Featuring wall modules and immersion pods – each with a diverse range of innovative and unique interactive experiences - the installation aims to distract patients through contemplative and immersive activities that offer the opportunity to play and relax. Patients can:
• Treat their favourite toy from home in the mini Toy Hospital
• Go on a fun adventure as a character in the Interactive Story Book
• Feed the clown fish and friends in the stunning underwater world of the Virtual Fish Tank
• Watch the stars in the Space Capsule and listen to the birds in the Treehouse
All three waiting areas are enhanced with bespoke seating, which is bright, colourful and comfortable.
Shona Cardle, CEO, Yorkhill Children's Charity, said: "During the development of the new hospital we consulted patients and family groups and identified waiting areas and times as a source of anxiety and discomfort for many.
"Our vision was to create a welcoming, open, fun-filled space where gentle, playful activities combine with absorbing games and challenges to create an interactive experience, engaging and distracting patients and their families at what can be a difficult time."
"We firmly believe the project embodies the charity's ethos – putting patients and families at the heart of the new hospital, providing enhancements, care and respect from the moment they enter the building."
Glasgow Science Centre designed and created the installation within the three waiting areas of the hospital.
Dr Stephen Breslin, Chief Executive of Glasgow Science Centre said: "We feel very privileged to be involved in this project and proud of the interactive spaces within the new Royal Hospital for Sick Children.
"Delivering the very best healthcare to sick children in hospital is of the upmost importance. A key part of that delivery is generating an environment that is conductive to recovery, that takes everyone's minds off why they are there and that provides comfort in a time of apprehension and distress.
"We know from our experiences at the Science Centre that people respond well when things are presented in a fun and interactive way. We used this knowledge when working alongside Yorkhill Children's Charity and the NHS to ensure that the spaces are captivating, evoke delight and encourage wonder."
Yorkhill Children's Charity has already funded more than £5m in equipment and service delivery at the new Royal Hospital for Sick Children.

Chiropractic care benefits all aspects of your body's ability to be healthy. This is accomplished by working with the nervous system–the communication system between your brain and body. Doctors of Chiropractic work to correct spinal, pelvic and cranial misalignments (subluxations). When misaligned, these structures create an imbalance in surrounding muscles and ligaments. Additionally, the resulting nervous system stress may affect the body's ability to function optimally.
Pelvic misalignments cause the tightening and torsion of specific pelvic muscles and ligaments. These tense muscles and ligaments have a constraining effect on the uterus which prevents the baby from comfortably assuming the best possible position for birth.
The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment that reduces interference to the nerve system and facilitates biomechanical balance in pelvic structures, muscles and ligaments. This has been shown to reduce the effects of intrauterine constraint, allowing the baby to get into the best possible position for birth.
It is strongly recommended that the Webster Technique be used throughout pregnancy, to detect imbalances and optimize pelvic biomechanics in preparation for safer, easier births. Because of the effect the chiropractic adjustment has on all body functions by reducing nervous system stress, pregnant mothers should have their spines checked regularly throughout pregnancy, optimizing health benefits for both the mother and baby.
Dr. Tiffany Fernandez is a chiropractor in Virginia Beach, Virginia who specializes in Maternity & Pediatric chiropractic care, utilizing the Webster Technique. She is committed to helping moms achieve the births they desire through public education and chiropractic care. Her first child was born via Cesarean and she delivered her second baby at home. She is a proud supporter and member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, www.icpa4kids.com. She most recently spoke about "Trusting Birth after Cesarean" at the international, Trust Birth Conference. For more information or to attend a free pregnancy workshop designed to help you have your best birth, please call In Good Hands Chiropractic at 757-431-BACK (2225) or visit her website at http://www.ighchiro.com.

Meet Tom Leppard – the leopard man
April 17, 2013 in Amazing, Crazy and bizarre, Europe and Middle East
Tom Leppard was once in the Guiness Book of World Records for being the world's most tattooed man. He is not anymore, but his tattoos still make him stand out from the crowd. Tom is tattooed to look like a leopard.
Tom Leppard was born in Woodridge, Suffolk. After spending £ 5500 having his body covered in a leopard-like pattern, he fled normal society to move and live on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Once a week, he would travel across to water by kayak to pick up his pension and by supplies. In 2008 he moved back closer to society.
Tom has leopard eyes tattooed over his eyelids and also cat-like teeth implants to fulfill his leopard-like appearance. (Source: wikipedia.org)

St. Bonaventure Box Score
Mount St. Mary's Box Score
LANTANA, Fla. The University of Pennsylvania baseball team picked up its first win of the season with a 4-3 win in the bottom of the ninth against Mount St. Mary's. Freshman Reid Terry's single in the bottom of the ninth scored Jake Palumbo to give the Quakers (1-2) their first win of the 2007 season.
Freshman Todd Roth was brilliant in his first collegiate start. He pitched seven innings shutout innings, while striking out eight and allowing just four hits.
Penn got on the board in the first when Kyle Armeny scored on a single by Alex Nwaka. The Quakers did not score again until the eighth. After the first two runners reached and were moved over on a sacrifice bunt, Matt Toffaletti delivered a double to plate both runs and put Penn up 3-0.
In the top of the ninth, Mount St. Mary's first three batters reached base. The Mount got on the board on a Penn error, followed by a RBI single by Mike Giuioso. Mount St. Mary's then tied the game up two batters later on a squeeze bunt. Doug Brown (1-0) struck out the next batter to end the inning.
In the bottom half, Jeff Cellucci led off with a single and was bunted over to second. After Gordon was intentionally walked, Armeny singled pinch runner Palumbo to third. Then up stepped Terry who singled in Palumbo to give Penn the victory.
Sunday morning, the Red and Blue lost to St. Bonaventure, 13-4. Penn erupted for four runs in the third inning, but squandered the lead in the seventh when the Bonnies scored six runs. Freshman Jim Birmingham started for the Quakers. He allowed just two runs on two hits while striking out five in five innings of work. Terry (0-1) suffered the loss.
Monday, Penn plays Boston College at 1 p.m. at Florida Atlantic University.

My server 2008 fax server has (and still is) working perfectly with XP Pro clients connected to the FAX share on the server. However, Windows 7 clients cannot the fax share. When setting up the User Account on the client though Windows Fax and Share it tells me the "mentioned fax server is not available".

Had same issue. Had to turn off UAC and manually share the fax printer and was then able to connect.
May 18, 2011 at 8:52 UTC
Good call. Have switched UAC off on the server. Will have to wait until this evening to Reboot the server.....
Will let you know.
Aug 10, 2011 at 10:04 UTC
Resolved this issue - forgot to post the answer.
Unlike XP where you connect to \\server\faxshare in Windows 7 you only need to connect to \\server - simple but frustrating.

I have been having issues in trying to get Server 2008 and my Window 7 users to use the fax on the server. I have spent countless hours pulling my hair out in trying to get it to work..
Server 2008 and Win 7 are 32 bit.
I have followed the instructions that Microsoft has. When connecting Win 7 to server I'm getting "You do not have security permission to complete this operation." I'm very much stumped.
I have gone back and forth of installing and uninstalling and really not sure what I need to do to get this to work. I have read many forums and just can't get this to work..
Does someone have step by step instructions on how to get this to work? If so, it would be greatly appriated. Thanks
Apr 18, 2012 at 12:07 UTC
Disreguard my last post.....
Such a simple solution to a long frusteration.. Went to Explorer and \\\\server\\ came up with permission, logged it as my workstation name and saved... Tested and went through.

Hi cpeterson76,
please explain your solution, I don't unterstand and have the same problem.
On which machine you open the windows explorer ?
How you logged it as my workstation name and saved ?
Thank you for the help.
Jul 29, 2012 at 10:55 UTC
Image Computer Solutions is an IT service provider.
I think I found the solution to this problem. The fax service in Windows Server 2008 has its own permissions located in the Fax Service Manger. In the left hand pane right click on the top most item, (in my case it was "Fax Local"). In the right click menu go to Properties. Go to the Security tab and here is where you have to list your domain members or groups as needed. As soon as I added the domain users group or everyone group from my domain I had no more errors about "the mentioned fax server can not be found". I logged in first time.
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.
You may get a better answer to your question by starting a new discussion.

This application is related to, and claims priority from, U.S. Provisional Patent application No. 60/574,796 on May 27, 2004, by Joseph Godcharles and Glen Paul entitled "Method and Apparatus for Image Distribution using a Cellular Phone", the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
The present invention relates to the field of digital photography, and particularly to the printing and distribution of digital images taken by a digital imaging device.
Cellular phones combined with digital cameras are consumer electronic devices that combine two well known technologies into a single device that allows a user to take digital pictures and relay the pictures to remote locations. A typical cellular phone combined with a digital camera is detailed in, for instance US Design Patent D478,103, titled "Digital Camera for Cellular Phone", granted to Chin on Feb. 24th, 2004, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
Although a combined digital camera and cellular phone makes it easier for a user to take pictures, the limited screen size and memory of current cellular phones create the need for new ways to manage and view the images. One way for users of combined cellular phone and digital cameras to manage their images is to send images to a central location and then manage them using conventional digital image storage and printing technology as described in, for instance, U.S. Pat. No. 6,332,146 issued to Jebens, et al. on Dec. 18, 2001, titled "Method and apparatus for storing and printing digital images", the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
An alternative way to manage and view images taken using cell phones has been provided by companies, such as dotPhoto Inc., of West Trenton, N.J., in the form of central storage servers. Viewers may send their images from the cell phone to the central server, where it is stored in a user album. The user may then access their account at the dotPhoto web-site. This allows the authorized user to view the images stored in their albums and also to order prints of images. The prints of the images are then sent to the user by mail.
A draw back of such existing methods of handling printing or other viewing of digital images taken with a cell phone, is that the user must access a web-site or computer after the pictures have been sent from the camera. What is needed is a method which overcomes these drawbacks.
Briefly described, the invention provides a method and apparatus for controlling the distribution, including printing, of digital images using a digital cellular phone, or other digital imaging device.
In a preferred embodiment, the digital imaging device is a cellular phone equipped with a digital camera. A picture created using the digital camera is uploaded to a remote server as, for instance, an e-mail attachment via a wireless network accessible by the cellular phone. Arrival of the email containing the digital image activates the automatic printing and automatic delivery of that image, according to instructions placed on the server by the user creating the digital image, prior to the creation of the image.
In a preferred embodiment, the image is sent to a web-site as an email or instant message, or as an attachment thereof. The web-site server uses information in the message, such as the sender email address, to route and process the uploaded image. In a preferred embodiment, each user has a set of predetermined preferences, which may be a default set and which may be altered by the user accessing their account on the web-site. For instance, by the single action of sending a digital image as part of an email to a specific web address from an identifiable cellular phone, a user may cause the image to be stored, printed and delivered as a print to an address, with the printing and mail delivery being automatically charged to an account or credit card.
In a preferred embodiment, the users settings may also allow images to be stored in a queue until a predetermined number have accumulated, so that the printing and delivery of the pictures may be batched to save both printing and deliver costs.
An objective of the design is to simplify digital photography, particularly the viewing and obtaining prints of images taken with cellular phones.
These and other features of the invention will be more fully understood by references to the following drawings.
The present invention relates to distribution of images taken using cellular phones, and particularly to the automatic ordering of printing and delivery of printed images.
Cellular phones have become equipped with digital cameras. A camera may also have a wireless connection conforming to well-known wireless communications protocols such as, but not limited to, the Bluetooth wireless protocol or the IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless protocol (also known as the WiFi wireless). Such devices make taking photographs easy. They, however, create problems as how best to store, view and particularly print copies of the digital image for viewing.
The present invention provides a method for automatically sending images taken on such devices to a server for automatic printing and sending to the user. For instance, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the single action of sending a digital image as part of an email to a specific web address from an identifiable cellular phone, may cause the image to be stored, printed and delivered as a print to an address, with the printing and mail delivery being automatically charged to an account or credit card.
The invention will now be described in more detail by reference to the accompanying drawings in which like numbers represent like elements.
Combination cellular phone and camera may for instance be, but is not limited to a Nokia 3650 Tri-band world phone made by the Nokia of Helsinki, Finland, capable of video capture and playback, still imaging, multimedia messaging, operating on Java™ MIDP 1.0, having Bluetooth networking capability, a relatively large color display and polyphonic ringing tones. After an image is taken using the combination phone and camera 12, the image may be uploaded as part of an e-mail using the cellular phone. The e-mail is relayed via a cellular relay station 14 to a network 16 to a server operating a web-site 18. Network 16 may for instance be the Internet, or any other suitable network. The web-site on server 18, may include provision for users to have accounts, including provision to store image on digital storage medium 20. The server operating the web-site 18 is also connected to a printing facility 22, which may include the capability to produce print versions of images, including high quality color prints. Print facility 22 may also have a capability to package prints and address them in the form of a labeled letter or package 24, suitable for mailing.
In a preferred embodiment, step 30 of taking a picture comprises taking a digital photograph using a camera that includes or is directly connected to an internet access device, such as a combination cellular phone and digital camera.
In a preferred embodiment step 32 of sending the picture to a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) comprises sending the digital image as part of an e-mail or instant message to a web-site identified by the URL. The URL may be a specific address within a web-site, such as firstname.lastname@example.com, that allows the web-server to route the incoming image in a specific way. In the preferred embodiment, messages sent to the specified address are processed by first identifying the sender of the image in step 34. This may, for instance, be done by means of the senders email address or other information in the message including, but not limited to any messages in the subject or body of the message. In a further embodiment of the invention, the identification may include camera identification attached to the email or embedded in the image itself. In a further embodiment the step of identifying the sender 34 may include authentication of the sender by, for instance, using a password in the subject line of the message.
In step 36, the server uses the sender's identity to obtain the sender's preferences. These preferences may include, but are not limited to, how many images the user wishes to queue before batching to printing, how the user wishes to pay, what type of printing the user would like, where the printed images or objects are to be sent and how the user would like to be notified that image has been received and/or processed. These preferences may have default values or they may be previously set by the user on activating the account or on updating their account.
Image queue options may include storing a pre-set number such as 36, and sending as a batch when ever that number is reached. There may also be a window of time, such as 2 hours, so that any images over the required target that are uploaded within a preset time after the target is reached, are also included in the batch. The target may also be a time limit such as, but not limited to, batching whatever images are in a queue at the end of each day, or week or month or any other convenient time limit.
Payment options may include a choice of credit cards, billing by account, electronic payment by, for instance Paypal, by coupon, or any other form of online payment.
The type of printing may include options such as number of copies, color or black and white, paper quality, size, matt or glossy. In further embodiments, type of printing may also include printing on objects such as, but not limited to, tee-shirts, caps, mugs or other objects or gift items such as calendars and cards. Type of printing may also include packaging of the printing such as, but not limited to, placing the print in a frame or adding appropriate covering, such as a glass cover to a framed print.
Sending options may include an address to be sent to, or a group of address and mailing options such as express, overnight, second day delivery.
In step 38, the server sets in motion processing the image according to the users current options, and then distributing the processed images in accordance with the users instructions.
Notification options may include voice-messages on the cellular phone, e-mail messages, text messages to a cellular phone or other suitable form of knowing how the status of the process, including regular updates on the number of images in the queue.
In a preferred embodiment, the user may also send text or email messages with instructions to update, modify or temporarily over-ride the users current options. These messages may accompany an uploaded image or may be sent separately. For instance, the user may email a message in which the subject line reads "Print Now", and the server would then immediately send all images currently in the users queue to be printed and sent to the users home address or otherwise dealt with in accordance with the users other preferences. All aspects of the processing and distribution of the users images may be altered by suitable commands sent from the users uploading device, which may be a cellular phone, including all storing, queuing, billing, printing and mailing options. For instance, MAIL_TO_ALLWAYS "New address", in the subject or body of an email to the appropriate URL may result in the prints now always being mailed to the new address.
The user may also specify which of several albums in their account the images should be stored, by preset preferences or by, for instance, adding an album name in the subject or body of an e-mail or text message.
The user may also upload the images to a shared account or album, in a form of "Image" blogging. For instance, a user having an event, such as a wedding or reunion, my set up an account which would allow all attendees of the event to upload copies of the pictures they take at the event to a common site, where they can then be viewed and purchased or selected for printing by all people having access to the site. Access to the site may be via a common identifier entered as a subject such as, but not limited to, something a long the lines of "Brenda's Wedding", or it may be via a pool of pre-identified or pre-registered e-mail addresses corresponding to all the e-mail addresses of the devices of people attending the event. In a further embodiment, the server may use the geographical location of the sending device to allow access to the album. For instance, by using GPS or other locating device built into the cellular phone, the server may identify the exact geographical location of the phone sending the images, and allow and route the image to a specific file. For instance, a wedding album may be accessed for a specific time, such as an hour before the event to an several hours after the reception is scheduled to end, by any cellular phone have the same geographical location (or being within some predefined geographical distance of) the location of the person with the account (who it is assumed will be in attendance at the event).
Although the preferred embodiment requires no special software on a camera/cellular phone, in a further embodiment, an agent may be downloaded onto a phone to facilitate identifying users. This agent may for instance be used to create temporary access or identification for the purpose of uploading images to a joint account, such as the wedding or reunion example above.
In a further embodiment, the user may control the distribution of images taken on a cellular phone in the manner described above, but where the distribution is to, for instance, on or more digital viewing screens instead of, or as well as, via printing.
Having set up the account, subsequent use of the digital imaging device 40 to take a digital image in step 44 will, after user chooses whether or not to add the picture just taken to the print queue, may result in the picture automatically being sent to the email server 44. The email server 44 relays the digital image on to the main server 45.
Depending on the instructions stored on the main sever 45 prior to the creating of the digital image being uploaded, the digital image may be automatically processed in a variety of ways. The digital image may, for instance, be uploaded and saved in step 48, to a previously created online album or an album automatically created for the digital image. The system may additionally, once step 48 of successfully uploading and storing the digital image has been successful, send a confirmation back to the camera equipped wireless device 40, acknowledging the successful storage of a particular digital image so that that digital image can be erased from the devices memory, freeing up space for further images to be taken and temporarily stored on the device. At the same time, or instead, the digital image may be added to a print queue in step 49. The print queue may automatically print the queue when a user specified, predetermined number of images has been stored, or at the end of a certain time. For instance, all the prints in the queue may be printed at the end of a day or the end of a week or the end of a month or the end of a year.
Once the digital images are printed, in step 50, an attempt to charge the cost of the printing and subsequent sending of the print to the user specified address, may be made. If in step 52, the attempt to change an account is declined, the user may be notified directly. If, in step 54, the charge mechanism accepts the charge of the cost of printing and sending, the photo order is completed in step 56. Completion of the order may include, but is not limited to, automatically packaging, automatically labeling and automatically placing the package at a collection point for collection and conveyance by a mail service operator, which may be a 3rd party jobber, that delivers the package to the address specified by the user which may, for instance, be the home address of the user. In addition, or instead, completion of the order may include sending the digital image to the user's home printer for printing in step 62. Completing the order may also include step 58 of sending a confirmation to the user by, for instance, an email, an instant message or a voice mail sent to the wireless device in step 58.
Although the invention has been described in language specific to structural features and/or methodological acts, it is to be understood that the invention defined in the appended claims is not necessarily limited to the specific features or acts described. Rather, the specific features and acts are disclosed as exemplary forms of implementing the invention.

Hey everyone. It's RichardAdams. I want to apologize to you all. As some of you have said in the comments, my work has not been up to par, has drifted away from what it's supposed to be, and I have seen that. I'm very sorry that my recent chapters have not been good enough to make any of you happy and I'm very regretful for that. It's just I've been working on a few other things and my mind has not been completely in it when I'm writing.
So...to try and get back to the way my works were, I'm going on a temporary hiatus. I'm doing this because I know all of you deserve better from me and I want to make 'Am I...?' the best story it can be for my readers. This hiatus may be anywhere from a few days, to a week or two. I'm just not sure yet.
By the way, some people have asked me who I would want to play Josh and Leo if this were to become a television series or movie. I've been looking through some young actors and have found that Robbie Amell fits Josh perfectly and, if here were to dye his hair black and wear dark blue contacts for the role, Alex Pettyfer for Leo.
Both are very handsome and I don't have to worry about a height and body problem, seeing as they are both the exact height and build I see Josh and Leo. Let me know what you think.
For the other roles, I was thinking Jake Abel for Mark, Tyler Posey for Shawn, Josh Hutcherson for Brian (if he were to go blonde again), Armie Hammer for Justin, and Liam Hemsworth for Danny. They all fit the height and body type I'd like and are all good actors. Like for Robbie Amell and Alex Pettyfer, let me know what you think.
I know these actors are in their 20's, but anyone younger would seem like they're fifteen (ah, the magic of film...). Any other character suggestions and comments are open and appreciated. Thank you everyone. I'll see you soon. Here's Chapter 17 of 'Am I...?'
Justin is released from the hospital the following Monday and goes home to his dad. He comes back to school Friday of the same week and is treated like a hero, just like Leo, Brian, and I. He needs to stay in a wheelchair for a little while, but Brian is more than happy to push his boyfriend around the school.
The Saturday of the same week, I get news that Gerald has been given bail of $400,000. He manages to make the bail by the end of the day and is released before dinner. I'm happy to hear that Gerald is allowed to stay with his son and that his ex-wife has been placed in a psychiatric ward for mental issues. Quoting Gerald: 'Serves that bitch right.'
March comes quick and the first signs of spring are here. The temperature has come back up and I'm back to wearing shorts every day. As I'm walking to class one Tuesday morning, I see Shawn and Mark standing on the side of the hall. I walk over to them and pat Mark on the back. "Hey guys," I say.
They both suddenly look a bit spooked to see me. O-Oh hey Josh," says Shawn.
"What's going on?" I ask.
"Oh...nothing," says Mark. "We're just...talking about...c-college and stuff like that."
They both laugh a bit, but I hear a hint of nervousness in their voices. "Okay..." I say. "So do you guys want to go somewhere for lunch today?"
"U-Um...we can't," says Shawn. "Mark and I...need to work on...an assignment for our business class."
"I thought you guys didn't get assignments in that class," I say.
"Oh...we don't," says Mark. "We had some classwork we didn't finish and need to make-up."
Shawn glances down at his watch. "Oh! Mark, we need to get that stuff done. NOW."
"Y-Yeah, we do! See you, Josh!"
Mark and Shawn quickly head down the hall, not so much as a glance back to me. That was...weird...
After spending lunch in the library, I start to head over to my computer graphics class. Along the way, I see my wheeled friend and his temporary chauffeur, walking/sitting down the hallway. "Hey Justin, Brian," I say.
Brian stops pushing Justin and they both look at me. I suddenly see the same look I saw with Mark and Shawn on their faces. "Hey J-Josh," says Brian.
"What's...up?" asks Justin.
"Um...not much," I say. "How's the recovery going, Justin?"
"It's getting there. The physical therapy is a little hard, but I'll be out of this chair by Friday. I miss using my legs..."
"That's good to hear. By the way, is there any more news on your mom?"
Justin's face looks to the floor for a second then he looks back up at me. "Yeah, there's been some. There were plenty of witnesses to what happened between her and my dad, so there's a lot of evidence against her. She'll get at least ten years for attempted murder, but..."
"You're going to miss her?" I ask.
Justin nods. "She's may be a heartless psychopath, but she's still my mom. I'm hoping maybe in time, I can visit her and maybe she'll see me as her son again..."
Brian wraps his arms around Justin's torso and kisses him on the cheek. "I'm proud of you Justin," Brian says. "Any other person would never want to see someone like that again." Justin smiles a bit and gives Brian a kiss back. "O-Oh, we need to find Mark and Shawn. That...thing. We need to finish it..."
"What thing?" I ask.
"Um...i-it's just an assignment," says Justin. "C'mon Brian. We need to get on that..."
Brain turns Justin around and they both quickly rush down the hall. Okay, what the hell is going on?
When I try to find Leo and ask him about what's going on with the guys, but I can't find him anywhere. Even when the day ends, he's nowhere to be found. His motorcycle is even gone from the parking lot. When I try to text him, all he says is that he's busy and will try to call me later, a call I never get.
Friday afternoon and I'm at the local market getting some stuff for Mom for dinner. I walk to the butcher and I see Danny staring intently at the various cuts of meat in the display. He says something to the man behind the counter, who walks off. "Hey Danny," I say as I walk up to him.
He snaps back to earth and sees me standing next to him. "Oh! Hey Josh."
"What're you up to?"
"Um...I'm just...getting some stuff for dinner for me, my mom and Steven, her boyfriend."
The man comes back with meat wrapped in some paper and hands it to Danny, who puts the meat in his cart. "Are those porterhouse steaks?" I ask when I see the label.
"Those are insanely expensive cuts."
"Well...Steven...is great at cooking, and he asked me to get two porterhouse steaks for dinner."
"But aren't there three of you?"
Danny glances around for a second. "O-Oh...I forgot to mention...my mom's a vegetarian, so the steaks are for Steven and me."
I look in the cart and see the ingredients Danny has so far. There are mushrooms, various vegetables, seasonings, and red wine (which I don't know how he'll buy). All of the materials go with the steaks, but I see some other things: a large bag of flour, an equally large bag of sugar, a lot of butter, and three cartons of eggs. "Steven must really know how to cook," I say.
I see Danny turn a little red. "Um...y-yeah, he does. I...need to get this shopping done. I'll see you next week, Josh."
Danny turns his cart and hurriedly walks toward the dairy. Did I do something wrong? Why does it seem like everyone's avoiding me?
Saturday, and I'm spending it at home doing a whole lot of nothing. Mom and Dad are out doing errands, so I'm left alone in the house all day. I keep checking my email to see if there are any messages from the colleges I applied to, but I don't even see one, not even Stanford, which bums me out a bit.
In the late afternoon, I get a phone call. I see Mark's calling me. "Hey Mark," I say.
"Hey Josh. Listen, are you busy tonight?"
"Not really. Why?"
"Shawn and I were going to go to a new club that opened up in the town center. We were wondering if you wanted to join us."
"Is Leo coming?" I ask hopefully.
"Um...Leo said he had some stuff to finish and can't make it."
I feel my spirit fall a bit. "Yeah...I'll come with you guys."
"Great. The dress code for the club is above casual, but not business casual. So...dress nice."
A club with a dress code? That's new. "Okay. I'll meet you guys in town around eight?"
"Sounds good. We'll see you then."
I hang up and fall back into bed and stare up at the ceiling. Why did Mark sound nervous when I brought up Leo's name?
After a quick shower, I get dressed to meet Mark and Shawn. A light grey collared shirt, dark blue jeans, a casual dark grey blazer, a black tie, and my Chucks. I tell Mom and Dad I'll be back late and head off into town.
I get there a little before eight and quickly find a parking spot. After a bit of walking, I find Mark and Shawn standing on a street corner. I see that they aren't dressed as nicely as I am. Actually they aren't dressed up at all. It's just jeans and t-shirts. "Hey guys," I say.
"Hey Josh," says Shawn.
"Why aren't you guys dressed up?" I ask.
"Oops," says Mark. "I forgot to send you that message. The club only has nice attire on Friday nights. My bad."
I roll my eyes. "Anyway, you ready?"
"Actually, the club doesn't open for a little while," says Mark. "So I was thinking we could take a walk for a bit in the park not too far from here. What do you guys think?"
"I'm up for a walk," says Shawn.
"Why not?" I say.
Mark leads Shawn and me down a few blocks and we soon get to the park. There are a few other people in the park, mostly just enjoying the nice night. There isn't a cloud in the sky and the moon is helping to illuminate the wooded path. "Hey Josh," says Shawn. "Look."
He points to my right and I look where he's pointing, but I don't see a thing. Just some trees and lampposts. "What am I...?" I start to ask.
I feel something in my pocket and see Mark pulling out my phone. He waves it in front of my face with a devilish smile. "Catch us if you can."
Mark and Shawn turn and take off running down the path. "YOU ASSHOLES!!"
I chase after them through the park. Mark and Shawn run down the path at top speed with me running after them as fast as I can. Where the hell are they going?
Mark and Shawn take a sudden right down a less taken path and I quickly follow behind them, but as soon as I turn the corner, they're gone. There isn't even a hint of where they went. I slow my pace to a walk and look around, trying to find my two dicks for friends.
As I keep walking, I start to notice something. There's a delicious smell in the air, the smell of cooked meat. I follow the smell and it starts to get stronger the more I walk. I turn another corner and stop dead in my tracks at what I see.
In the middle of the park, sits a single table. The table is covered in a white tablecloth with two dining sets on both sides of the table along with two chairs and even two candles. "May I seat you, sir?"
I look to my left and see my model-looking friend, Nelson. "Nelson!" I say. "What is all this?"
"You'll find out in a few minutes," he says with a smile. "May I seat you?"
Uh...sure?" Nelson walks me to the table and pulls out a seat for me. I sit down and look back at him. "Nelson, what's going on?"
Nelson doesn't say a thing. He just smiles and walks off, leaving my question unanswered. "Would you like some water?"
Justin's standing next to me, holding a pitcher of water. "Justin?! What're you doing here?!"
"Giving waiting a try," he says. "Water?"
He pours water in both glasses and walks away before I can ask another question. I look at the table and find my phone next to my spot and slip it into my pocket. But I also see that the cloth is satin, the glasses appear to be crystal, and the cutlery is so polished, it's shining in the candlelight. "Do you like it?"
I look across the table and see Leo, dressed in a black collared shirt, dark jeans, a light grey vest, a dark grey tie, and his black boots. He has a smile on his face and it makes me smile too. "Leo, did you do all this?" I ask.
"I had a little help," he says as he's sitting down.
"But all of this was your idea?"
He smiles even brighter. "Yeah."
"Why? What's the occasion?"
Leo leans over the table a bit and he stares right into my eyes. "Josh. Six months ago to this day, I saw you for the very first time. And the second I saw you, you took my breath away. I've loved you every minute since then. Four months ago, we kissed for the first time, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about that first kiss.
"Josh, being with you has been the most amazing experience of my life. You're the nicest, most caring person I have ever met. To think I almost lost you when I broke up with you. I never want to be apart from you like that ever again."
Leo's eyes start to water a bit, but he quickly wipes them dry. "You're the love of my life, Josh. I arranged this to help celebrate the six months I've known and loved you. You've helped me whenever I needed it, you've been there for me, and have loved me as much as I love you. I can't thank you enough for being my boyfriend. I love you."
I smile back at Leo and wipe my eyes as well. "You love me so much you went through all this trouble?"
"It was no trouble at all, Josh. I love you so much, I would want to do this every day for you. But the guys would kill me if I had them do this every day."
"I love you too, Leo. So much..."
Leo holds up his water glass. "Here's to six months that we've had together and to the many more we're going to have."
I take my water glass and lightly clank it with his. Mark and Shawn suddenly appear to my left, both holding a plate. "Dinner is served," says Mark.
He and Shawn place two plates in front of Leo and me. A large steak, covered in mushrooms and a dark red sauce with assorted vegetables sit on both plates, delicious smelling steam rises off the food. "That smells awesome," says Leo.
"Thank the chef," says Shawn. "He cooked every bit of this."
"Who's the chef?" I ask.
"That would be me."
To my right stands Danny, wearing a full on chef outfit and a black bandana on his head. "You cooked all this, Danny?" I ask.
"Every bit, even the dessert that you're gong to get later."
"Were those ingredients you got at the market for tonight?" I ask. "I thought you said your mom's boyfriend was cooking that."
"Are you kidding? Steven needs help making cereal correctly. He tried cooking a grilled cheese last week and almost burned down the kitchen. I hope you like the food. I need to go check on that dessert."
Danny walks off and Mark and Shawn quickly follow. "How is he cooking out here?" I ask Leo.
"You know Nelson's boyfriend George?" I nod. "He's owns a catering company. He lent me a portable kitchen area and Danny used that to cook dinner and dessert."
Suddenly, soft music starts playing. I see Brian standing about ten yards away, a violin in his hands. "Brian plays the violin?" I ask. "I thought he played drums."
"Brian's a musical prodigy. He plays almost a dozen instruments and can sing too. But you're still my favorite musician."
I grin at Leo. "Well, we shouldn't let this food get cold, should we?"
The food is fucking fantastic. Who knew Danny could cook so amazingly? Leo and I talk throughout the whole meal, even with mouths full of steak and vegetables. Mark and Shawn clear the plates and Danny comes out holding two more plates. "Ready for dessert?" he asks.
"Hell yeah," says Leo.
Danny sets down two plates, both with what appears to be a tall piece of cake in the shape of a log. "This is baumkuchen," says Danny. "It's a traditional European dessert, which literally translates to 'log cake.' Be aware, it's very rich because of the amount of sugar and butter in it."
"You made this too?" I ask.
"There's enough for seconds, thirds, and fourths if you want more. Mark, Shawn, there's some for you guys, Justin, Brian, and Nelson."
"Sweet," says Mark.
Danny takes Mark and Shawn to the dessert and Leo and I look to our plates. "If he doesn't go on a television cooking competition when he's older, I'll kick his ass," says Leo.
I laugh and Leo and I dive into our cakes. And holy crap, it's amazing. Every bite fills my mouth with a rich, sweet taste, making me want more. That's before I have half the cake. After that, it's difficult to eat another bite it's so rich. "Ugh, I'm full," says Leo.
"Same here," I say.
Leo and I stare at each other for a few minutes, not saying a word. I stare into his dark blue eyes, the same eyes that captivated me six months ago and still pull me into a trance to this day. "What's say you and I get out of here?" Leo asks.
"Are you sure?" I ask. "Shouldn't we help the guys clean up?"
"Don't worry. They agreed to clean up after you and I finished dinner. C'mon. I have a place I want to go."
Leo grabs me by the arm and pulls me out of my seat. He slips his hand into mine and we walk through the park hand in hand. We soon walk out of the park and I see Leo's motorcycle and the two helmets, the second I'm going to start calling mine. "Hop on," Leo tells me.
"Where're we going?" I ask as I put on the helmet.
"You'll see."
I take my rightful place behind Leo and wrap my arms around his stomach. Leo's bike revs and he takes off through the streets. I rest my head between Leo's shoulder blades, zone everything else out, and just breathe. There's nothing else but me and Leo and I breathe in Leo's scent.
The bike soon stops and I come back to reality. "We're here," says Leo.
"Where's here?" I ask, taking off my helmet.
Leo points to his right and I feel my mouth fall open. Leo's pointing at The Lumière, Santa Ana's nicest hotel. A night here is costs upwards of almost a thousand dollars. "You and I are spending the night here," Leo tells me.
I look at Leo, my mouth still open. "How did you get a room here?" I ask. "It's insanely expensive..."
"My dad's good friends with the manager of The Lumière. I asked him for a favor and he lent me the presidential suite for the night. No charge."
I smile at Leo and I take his hand again. He and I walk into the main lobby of The Lumière and I already feel like my wallet just flew out of my pocket. We walk up to the front desk and the woman behind the counter smiles at us. "Good evening," she says. "Welcome to The Lumière. May I help you?"
"Yes," says Leo. "I have a reservation for Leo Trigon?"
"Okay sir. Let me just check that." She quickly types on the keyboard next to her and looks at the computer monitor. "Yes, here we are. Leo Trigon, presidential suite, one night stay, all expenses paid. May I just see some identification?"
Leo reaches into his pocket and shows the woman his driver's license. "Perfect," she says. She takes a room key and quickly scans it into the computer and hands it to Leo. "The presidential suite is on the top floor. I hope you enjoy your stay."
Leo and I thank the woman and walk over to the elevators and ride up to the top floor. After walking a bit, we find the presidential suite, distinguishable by its double doors. Leo slides the car in and opens the door and we walk in. We don't even take two steps.
This room is gigantic! There's enough room in here to fit at least a hundred people. Leo and I act like little kids for a few minutes, looking in every room and gawking at how nice the suite is. We both stop when we get to the bathroom. While the bathroom is beautiful, a large shower takes up most of it.
Leo and I look to each other and grin. I grab him before he can grab me and hold him close to me. "I love you so much," I whisper.
"I love you too," he whispers back.
I quickly press my lips to Leo's and our tongues do most of the work for us. Leo and I haven't kissed like this since the last time we made love. I've actually forgotten how good Leo tastes. I feel Leo grab the base of my shirt and un-tuck it from my pants. I pull away from Leo and smile at him. "I got it."
Leo smiles back at me and un-tucks his shirt too. We both quickly undress and are left standing in our underwear. Leo grabs me by the hand and pulls me toward the shower. We both step inside and find there's plenty of room in here for the two of us. We step to the middle of the shower and the showerheads immediately turn on, the water the perfect temperature.
Our underwear is quickly soaked and through the fabric of Leo's underwear, I see his gorgeous cock. "Let's get you out of that," I say.
I grab the waistband of Leo's underwear and pull it down to his ankles. I'm now face to face with the half-foot behemoth Leo calls his penis. "You look a little uncomfortable with that bulge," Leo tells me.
I look down and see my own dick sprouting a hard-on of its own. I stand back up and pull my own underwear down and kick it off my feet. Leo and I stare at each other wet and naked bodies. My sex drive takes over and I pull Leo into another hard kiss, my tongue trying to feel every bit of Leo's mouth.
Leo's cock pokes me in my lower abdomen and I grab it with a tight squeeze, causing Leo to suck in a deep breath. "Please...let's save it for a little later," Leo manages to get out.
"Okay," I say. I reach other and grab an available bar of soap. "Let's at least get clean first."
"So we can get dirty again?"
Leo laughs and I begin rubbing his body down with the bar of soap, being sure not to miss a single inch of his hard body. I get to his ass and thoroughly rub every nook and cranny there is. Between his legs I see Leo's cock dripping precum onto the stone shower floor. It takes every bit of willpower I have not to spin Leo around and hungrily swallow his hard cock.
I finish cleaning Leo and stand back up when he takes the bar of soap from my hand. He runs the soap across my chest, spending extra time on my nipples, which harden in a split second. Leo gets to my cock and rubs it down with the bar, making me shudder in ecstasy.
Leo and I stand in front of the jets of water and wash the soap off of each other. "Now...how do we turn off the water?" Leo asks.
The water suddenly stops, leaving both Leo and me confused. "Oh, don't tell me," I start.
"On," says Leo.
The jets of water shoot back on, making Leo and I laugh. "Voice activated shower," I say. "If only we all had this. Off."
The water turns back off and Leo and I step out of the shower. We grab two towels and quickly dry each other off, helping each other wipe the water off our bodies and drying our hair. "I want you in the bed right this minute," Leo says.
He grabs my hand and pulls me out of the bathroom and into the large master bedroom, which holds one of the biggest beds I have ever seen. Leo wraps his arms around me and pulls me into the bed, kissing me before we even hit the bed. Leo lies on top of me, his taught, muscular skin pressing against my own.
I reach down Leo's back and find his ass and give each cheek a hard squeeze, making Leo moan. Leo slides down my, his tongue licking down my neck and chest. He stops on both nipples for a second and gives both a soft bite, goose bumps breaking out with each bite. Leo keeps going down my body and gets to my semi-hard cock.
He takes my shaft in his hand and gives it a few pumps and squeezes, making me groan in delight. "Please Leo," I beg. "Please suck my dick. I can't wait anymore..."
I see Leo smile a bit and his tongue slowly slides up my cock, stopping on the quickly swelling head. His tongue circles my cock head and slides over my piss slit, making me squirm. Leo opens his mouth and starts to take my cock. He quickly takes every inch and moves up and down the shaft.
Screams erupt from my chest every time Leo slides back down my hard shaft. He's gotten so good at sucking cock that his mouth feels like velvet and I don't want him to stop. I open my eyes long enough to see Leo's in as much joy as I am. "L-Leo, I want to suck your cock too..."
Leo grunts in response and swings his legs over my head, his mouth never releasing my cock. Leo's hard dick sits in front of my face and I grasp it firmly in my hand, making Leo shudder. I slide my tongue over the head and swallow Leo's cock in one gulp, taking every inch no problem.
We're in perfect unison as Leo and I blow each other, sloppy slurps coming from both of our cock-filed mouths. Leo slides off my dick and pulls his own cock out of my mouth. He turns back around and sits on my pelvis. "When did you get so good at sucking cock?" Leo asks me with a smile.
"I guess it's thanks to you," I say with a similar smile.
And some online tutorials...
Leo hops off me and reaches over to the nightstand and into the drawer. He pulls out a bottle of lube and holds a bottle of lube in front of my face. "You really prepared didn't you?" I ask.
"Only for you."
Leo pops the top on the bottle and lets the lube flow into his hand, and he isn't stingy with it. He pours about half the bottle into his palm, letting the extra slide between his fingers and drip onto my body. The gel feels cold, but I'm too hot right now to care. Leo takes his lubed hand and slides it all over my chest and body, his hands making me even hotter.
His hand slides down further until it reaches my ass. Without warning, Leo slides two finders into me, causing me to scream in both a little pain and a lot of delight. "Sorry," says Leo. "Was that too fast?"
"I-It's just been a while since last time. Go ahead. I want it..."
He waits a second for me to adjust, and Leo starts fingering me. He's neither too hard, nor too soft. It's just right, and it feels great. He slides in a third finger after a few minutes and spreads me even further, enough to fit his huge cock.
Leo pulls out his fingers and reaches back over to the nightstand. He pulls out a condom and rips it open and swiftly slides it on his hard cock. I lift my legs up as Leo position's himself over me, the tip of his cock awaiting access. "Ready?" he asks.
"Fuck me..." I breathe out. Leo's cock slowly glides into my ass, inch after inch being swallowed. Despite almost two months having gone by since Leo and I last had sex, I don't feel an ounce of pain. "I need you now, Leo. Please...fuck me hard. I want to feel you inside of me..."
Leo's cock begins to slide out of me and with one hard push, forces it's way back in. And out, and back in. Leo is fucking me at a perfect rhythm. He's hard enough to make me scream in ecstasy, yet soft to enough to where it doesn't feel like I'm being ripped in two. Leo sounds like he loves it as much as I do, because his yells and moans are just as loud as mine.
The bed sheets are already soaked with my sweat and Leo's just as wet as I am, droplets falling from his forehead and nose and sliding down his neck. His chest is rising and falling hard and fast, labored breaths escaping his throat.
As my head flies back from pleasure, I suddenly feel two hands grab my sides. I open my eyes and Leo flips me over onto my stomach, his cock never leaving my ass. "Get on your elbows and knees," Leo sexily says.
I follow his command and he proceeds to fuck me doggy style. With a new position come new amazing feelings. Shocks I've never felt before radiate throughout my body, causing my hairs to stand on end and heat to explode out of every pore on my skin.
Leo holds his arms tightly around my waist and leans his torso onto my back, his hips smacking against me with every thrust. I reach back and grab Leo's head and pull him into a kiss as his fucks me, the feeling of kissing Leo as he fucks me adding to my bliss. "F-Fuck, Josh. You feel so good..." Leo moans between kisses.
"I feel amazing, Leo. O-Oh fuck...harder! Fuck me harder!"
My screams escalate to pure howls as Leo fucks me with more force than ever before. Shrieks of rapture fill my ear as Leo holds me even tighter. "J-Josh! I'm cumming! I'm going to...c-cum!"
"Cum on me, Leo! I-I want it! I-I'm cumming...too!"
Leo's cock pulls out of me and I flip back over and jerk my cock with Leo. I feel my cock start to surge and use my free arm to pull Leo into my chest. "Cum with me..." I whisper into his ear.
I take Leo's hand off his cock and grab it with my own. He grabs mine and pumps vigorously with me. "A-Ah! I'm cumming!" Leo screams.
"I-I'm cumming too!"
With a final hard pump, jets of white cum shoot up between our bodies, flying onto both of our chests and faces. Every muscle I have contracts and bliss washes over me. Leo collapses onto my chest, both of us breathing hard, and looks into my eyes. "That was..." he starts.
"Beautiful," I finish.
Leo smiles and presses his cum-coated lips to mine. We take a few minutes to get some strength back before we climb out of bed and walk back to the shower to clean up. Once we get dried off again, I make a quick call home to Mom and Dad, telling them I'm spending the night at Leo's.
Leo and I walk back to the bed, hand in hand, and fall in together. As Leo starts to pull the covers over us, I see something on his left shoulder I didn't notice before. "What's that on your shoulder?" I ask.
Leo glances back at me before smiling at me. "It's a tattoo."
"A tattoo?"
"I got it a few weeks ago. I wanted it to be a surprise for tonight, and now looks like the best time to show you." Leo turns his back to me and I look at his shoulder. What is see is the most beautiful black cursive calligraphy I have ever seen. "Go ahead and read it out loud."
I take a quick glance at the words and recognize the sentence underneath the first seven words. The second I see it, I feel two tears fall from my eyes and smile brightly at it. "Go ahead," Leo says. "I want to hear you say it."
"'For Josh, Who I Will Love Forever. I Love You, Not Only For Who You Are, But For What I Am When I Am With You.'"
Leo turns back around and I see he's crying with me too. "Josh, I love every single thing about you and I love you with all my heart. But I also love you because you bring out the best of me and I can't thank you enough for it. These six months with you have been the best and I will never forget every minute I have spent with you. I love you so much, Josh..."
More tears fall from my eyes and I pull Leo into a hug, kissing the side of his head. "I love you too, Leo. I'll never forget the first time I looked into your dark blue eyes. I still feel my heart skipping that beat to this day. I love you as both my best friend, and as the love of my life. I love you..."
I look into Leo's dark blue eyes, the same skipped beat coming back to me. Leo kisses me and I kiss him back. I reach over to the nightstand and turn off the lamp, darkening the room, and slide into bed with Leo. He pulls the covers over us and I wrap my arms around Leo. "Happy six months," he says.
"Happy six months. I love you, Leo."
"I love you too, Josh. Good night."
Leo turns over in my arms and I pull him even closer to me, pressing my chest to his back, the tattoo directly over my beating heart.

Beautiful, high quality print. Nicely matted. I love looking at this photo, one can "get lost" in it. Excellent communication from seller.

Ethereal and haunting photograph. Everything appears to be in motion, including the camera.
Shop policies
Okay...I like digital I really do but.....throughout this surge in digital photography I still find myself taken by FILM. I enjoy the interaction with film and the whole process of film processing and printing. For me spending time is the darkroom is so magical. With that said most of all my images shown here are taken with film using medium format and large format cameras. I also love to use and play with toy cameras and vintage cameras. I do not use any Photoshop and the cropping is usually just the way I saw it.
All images will be professionally printed full-bleed (borderless) on stunning quality photographic paper (you pick the finish) or hand printed on fiber paper by yours truly in the darkroom. How is that for handmade!
As you can see I am a purest...traditional photography holds my heart. I hope my photography will find a place in yours. Enjoy the visual journey I know I enjoyed capturing it!

We report the design and experimental demonstration of electro-optically active TM-guided to TE-radiation mode converters in annealed proton-exchanged (APE) periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) channel waveguides in telecom S-C-L bands (1495-1640 nm). A maximum mode conversion efficiency of >95%/cm was obtained at 1520 nm from a 24-μm-period APE PPLN waveguide under an electro-optic (EO) field of ~6.3 V/μm at 35°C. This efficiency has been enhanced by a factor of >4.6 over a waveguide built in the single-domain (unpoled) LiNbO3; it is also to the best of our knowledge the most efficient guided-to-radiation (GTR) mode converter ever reported based on LiNbO3 on-axis waveguides. A conversion bandwidth of ~250 nm was also observed from this EO GTR mode converter.

Is it bad to bump?
Is it annoying when people bump their own blogs?
as jaywalkergraphics says, participate!
Is it annoying when people bump their own blogs?
as jaywalkergraphics says, participate!
bump (just to start things rolling)
it's so bad that it's good
ah yes, but what if nobody responds?
not just talking about myself, some other people just bump away. I do a bit, trying to quit it tho!
Good advice
I guess people just type bump, as it sounds a bit mad talking to yourself.
@Ryder Revolution, sorry you just cropped up there between posts.
Yeah, I guess it can be a necessary evil!
I've left my design alone for a few weeks and no one's written a thing so i just did a jazzy bump on mine... haha you see what i'm getting at here?
nope, i say bump bump bump as much as you like
bumping is in my bloggy blood.
OK, so the general consensus is bump like there's no tomorrow!
maybe not like there's no tomorrow... i say 3 or 4 bumps a day at most is warranted...
ok, I'll just bump a little bit then.
Yep! I wouldn't really recommend bumping stuff to the top constantly!
I think it goes a bit overboard sometimes but I'm not too bothered by it.
it's ok as long as you use this picture
Yeah, I saw that before here. It's quite amusing!

A couple of years ago, I heard Richard Newman of River Styx read his poetry at a Writer's Guild meeting,and I thought, If that is poetry, then I can do it! And I did. I compressed lengthy prose and wrote some award-winning poetry. I'd always had a knack for writing rhyming, humorous poems, but the word poetry made me think of all those mind-boggling lines with layered meaning that gave me a brain ache. Although I enjoy St. Louis Writer's Guild Open Mike Nights,I never thought I'd attend a poetry reading. I attended one last night at Puddin' Head Books in Webster Groves headed up by Amanda Wells, Publisher of Literal Chaos, a local literary magazine. I even read my work after the featured readers. Bill and I had a great time and especially enjoyed Evan Copacetic Soul, an outstanding slam poet. I shall never nibble a Thin Mint Girl Scout cookie again without thinking of his hysterically funny routine. His other pieces were heart wrenching, and gut busting. A most enjoyable night.
Stepping out of a comfort zone is not easy; trying new literary things is challenging, but in order to grow, a writer must reach in all directions. Stretch yourself.
I live in St. Louis, MO, but my heart and soul hang out at the beach. I am a multi-genre, award winning writer and member of St. Louis Writer's Guild. I am a seasoned pre-k teacher, on line writing instructor, wife, mother, Nana to ten. Hopefully, something I say will make you smile, further your writing career, or inspire you to write from the heart, too. email@example.com. Twitter, @WriterLindaO.

i really neeed to know that would be very helpful
Most Helpful Girl
No matter what, she will try to make conversation with you. "Do you have gum?" "What's your favorite color?" Stupid shit like that. She'll most likely act shy around you (depends on whether she's crazy outgoing or quieter). Blushing, smiling A LOT, playing/fidgeting with her hair or phone when she's around you. She initiates, as in she texts first, calls first (doesn't reply super fast because she doesn't want you think she likes you). One important thing is that she's always constantly laughing/giggling at what you say even though you weren't trying to be funny. If you have mutual friends, they'd probably push you guys together, embarrass her. Girls are confusing, but these are a few big hints.00|00|0
that was helpful! thanks

Hey Guys I need some advise,
First off, do you clean the inside out down to the shinny metal?
I have a 17" replacement charcoal grate for a 22.5" Weber. I also have a 24 x 24 piece of expanded metal.
My question is: would a 8" high fuel basket be enough for all night smokes IE: butts, brisket and armadillo?
Last but not lest (for now that is) I have seen pics of many of y'all builds with what looks to be decals, I am just thinking ahead and would like to make my UDS purdy looking.
What kind of decals do you use that will stand up to the heat?
Thanks in advance,

18350 Hopewell Road
Mount Venon, OH 43050
In 1973 the Supreme Court said it was OK to kill unborn babies. Since then, we have killed more than the entire population of Canada. And it it continues. A woman's choice? Half of those who have died in their mothers' wombs have been women. They didn't have a choice. It is called abortion.
The right of succession is a powerful thing. Youth and excitement contend that we should not be denied something exciting! But youngsters, left to themselves, will usually break the rules...and sometimes even a body part.
Now let's break it down. What do you suppose the Framers of the US Constitution -- a document expressly designed to limit the powers of federal government -- intended with the word "Congress"? Did they mean State government? Municipal government? Your local school district? Your third grade teacher?
Ephesians 6:12: For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. The two Generals met at the middle of the battlefield to discuss the terms of a peace treaty. Unbeknownst to them, an arms dealer lay hidden in the bushes, rifle at hand, ready to make sure peace did not prevail. As the Generals were about to shake hands the arms dealer took aim at an unsuspecting infantryman and squeezed the trigger. Assuming the other side had fired the shot, the man standing next to him opened fire on the opposition. The battlefield erupted in gunfire, both sides believing the other had violated the cease fire agreement. They had no way of knowing they had been used as pawns in a chess match. Sneaking away under the cover of gunfire and foliage, the arms dealer retreated to safety. The war would last four years and claim the lives of more than ten thousand men and women. During that time the arms dealer sold more than three hundred thousand weapons to both sides, making millions. His plan had worked perfectly: get the soldiers to fight amongst themselves for as long as he could. He couldn't have cared less about the casualties, or the lives of countless families that were destroyed. All he cared about was making money…any way he could.
How many times does an idea take hold in our mind that eventually expands to take a form that is exciting and maybe even altruistic in nature. This idea can expand from a single thought that comes from; observing something that needs changed, or seeing a problem that needs remedied, or maybe even seeing an opportunity to create something, to a sequential and verifiable group of ideas. This group of ideas can even turn into a full fledge solution. How exciting to come up with a solution, especially when it involves helping others. What began with one single idea then progressed to a final conclusion can be so gratifying. How rewarding, how exciting!

IIHS Details Front Crash Tests in New Video
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) does important work crash testing all-new vehicles, and the Institute has just released the second video in a series detailing exactly how they conduct crash tests.
This video focuses on front crash tests. Specifically, it looks at what goes into setting these tests up, and how the results are measured and turned into quantitative data. It also explains the differences between the two different frontal crash tests that they conduct.
Recently, the IIHS introduced a new small overlap front crash test, which is also detailed in this short video. The most recent segment to run through the small overlap test was compact crossovers, and they did not fare well.
SEE ALSO: Small SUVs Fare Poorly in IIHS Small Overlap Crash Test
To earn the accolade of IIHS Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must score top marks in moderate overlap frontal test, side impact, rollover and rear tests, regardless of their rating in the small overlap frontal test.

Mimesis has almost the same meaning as mime but the concept of imitation in this case has wider connotations. Originally, Greek artists were the first to establish mimesis (imitation of nature) as a guiding principle for art, even as Greek philosophers debated the intellectual value of this approach. The repeated depiction of the nude human figure in Greek art reflects Greek humanism—a belief that 'Man is the measure of all things,' in the words of Greek philosopher Protagoras. Architecture is another Greek legacy that the West has inherited, as Greece established many of the structural elements, decorative motifs, and building types still used in architecture today. Aristotle in poetics, states that tragedy is an imitation of an action, but the uses the term comprehensively to refer to the construction of a play and what is put into it. We should use mimesis to mean representation, which relates to verisimilitude. The outstanding work in this topic is Eric Auerbach's Mimesis (1957).
As a literary genre, the term signifies the attempt by one writer to rework the structure and theme of an earlier writer's work recast a contemporary mood. The form is most prominent in verse, and the most notable examples date from the late Renaissance period, culminating in the wok of the Restoration and Augustan poets, who frequently wrote imitations of the famous classical poets, Juvenal and Horace being the most cultivated. By this means satire could be updated for instance but the framework of similarities to an age long past could be invoked for special effect. The from is distinct from a translation and allows considerably more poetic license. The Latin original (imitation) and its Greekcounterpart (mimesis) have a stricter intellectual connotation, referring to the whole of the representation of reality through the written word.
Literary theory during and after the romantic period regarded imitation is sense as a somewhat inferior practice, derivative lacking in originality. Prior to that and for many centuries it had been regarded as a wholly respectable practice. Aristotle advocated it, so did Cicero and Horace. The idea was that a writer should learn everything he could from the masters who were his predecessors. This point of view prevailed during the medieval and Renaissance periods and continued into the 17th century.

For any product or item to make it on our menu, items must be from the finest sources, simple, and most importantly, delicious! Our wild caught and ready-to-cook fish lives up to this criteria. We source only the finest wild-caught fillets from regions where we can be assured of the cleanest waters and environmentally friendly fishing practices. Our newest additions include Canadian salmon and halibut from the North Pacific and a delectable Mahi Mahi from the South Pacific.
In order to preserve the freshness and flavor of the fish, we do not cook it before shipping it to your doorstep. Instead, we individually portion each fish in our top of the line, BPA free bags to seal in freshness along with portioned-out seasoning and/or sauce, depending on the fish and seasonings selected.
For a quick and easy clean up, place a piece of clean foil on a cookie sheet or sheet pan, followed by the fish.
For fish selections with seasoning, use the desired amount of seasoning on the fish prior to placing it in the oven.
For fish selections with glaze, we recommend using about half of the glaze on the fish prior to placing it in the oven. This will leave some glaze to add after if you prefer.
Add or deduct seasoning or glaze according to your preference. Each fish is listed below with the corresponding cook time and temperature to be cooked.

Mastering Microsoft Visual C++ Programming
MS's Visual C++ package is one of the richest--but most complex--programming languages ever created. Using Visual C++ is more like using "tools" than "programming"--the product generates routine code itself . . . leaving the programmer to focus on personal creativity. This massive product includes more than 20 manuals--an overwhelming conglomeration of C, C++, DOS, and Windows programming references. Includes a high-density 5.25-inch disck that contains all of the source code and executable programs developed in the book.
