I held my hands to my mouth as I stared at the beautiful sight in front of me. Hundreds of fireflies illuminated the air as they floated above a pond that was covered with lily pads topped with small pink flowers. They floated gracefully in the air flashing in different patterns as frogs and crickets croaked and chirped everywhere. Above the trees were a healthy green with a vines crawling up the trunks with blue flowerers blossoming on the vines. A few feet head there was a patch of colorful wild flowers of almost every kind, the place was crawling with life, and all of it was beautiful. Slowly a firefly drifted in front of my face and Ray gently enclosed his hand around it, leaving a faint glow between his fingers.
'This is a place I go to every time I need a cool down, a place I can feel safe and relax...my sanctuary, I haven't shared this place with anyone, not even my best friend and....I happily share it with you...my love,' he whispered in my ear as he released the firefly and wrapped his arms around my waist. My heart was racing, pounding against my chest, my breathing became shallow as my lips quivered and tears began filling my eyes. Slowly I turned around and placed my hands on his chest as we stared into each other's eyes. His arms were tight around me, and the fireflies illuminated his face, giving him a godly glow.
'I love you Levi...always,' he whispered gently while tightening his arms around me. I could feel the words swelling in my chest; they were forcing their way up my throat, desperately trying to burst out.
'I....' I said softly as my body began trembling violently. I felt Ray's arms tighten around me, giving me strength to carry on, showing that he was there for me.
'I...I...I love...you,' I whispered as tears began streaming down my cheeks. Ray kept his eyes on me as a large smile began forming on his lips, and I could hear his breathing becoming rapid.
'Say it again,' he breathed out as his eyes became glassy. I stared at him and I felt a smile slowly forming on my lips as well.
'I...I love you...' I said a little louder again. He smiled broadly as I saw a tear shoot down his cheek.
'I love you!!!!' I shouted and I jumped into his arms. Tears streamed down my cheeks as we laughed and he spun me around, holding me tight as we continuously said I love you to each other. Finally Ray lost his balances and we fell into the patch of wild flowers still laughing and smiling. I laid on top of his chest as we stared into each other's eyes, smiling. We closed our eyes as we slowly leaned in for a kiss, and then our lips met. It was electrifying, waves of happiness shot throughout my body as our lips met, and I felt a warm current of heat spread throughout my body. As we kissed, we would take turns whispering I love you to each other, experiencing how new it felt that every time he said I love you, that I would say I love you back. It was tender and warm, but something about it was different. It was more, deeper, more meaningful, and it told more words and showed more emotions than ever before. Slowly, our lips parted and he cupped my face into his hands.
'I cry too much,' I sniffled while still smiling.
'As long as they're tears of happiness....then I'm happy about it,' he said softly while wiping a tear away with his thumb. He pulled me into another deep kiss that took my breath away and made my heart pound against my chest. We laid there in the flowers, relishing the feeling of our love becoming deeper and stronger. Often he would take a quick peck on my lips and whisper I love you to me. Every time I would whisper I love you back, and return a kiss. Every time that happened, we smiled and return to holding each other. Our legs were intertwined as his arms were wrapped around me and my hands were placed against his chest, it was a perfect fit. The chirps and croaks were music to our ears, and the fireflies were like fireworks.
'Levi....' I heard Ray whisper. My eyes were closed as I buried my face into his chest.
'Yes my love?' I replied gently. I felt his hand gently lift up my face so I was staring into his beautiful eyes once again. They were so deep, so enticing, so loving, it hypnotized me, and it made me want to stare into them forever.
'Can you feel it? Our love...it grew stronger today...' he said happily as his flashed a wide smile. I smiled back in return and pecked him on the lips.
'My thoughts exactly,' I said as he gently took hold of one of my hands and I laced my fingers in between his fingers. His hand was a lot larger than mine, but it was still warm and gentle, and my fingers fitted perfectly in between his. We both kissed it at the same time, and then kissed each other's lips and returned to staring at the fireflies still floating around in the air.
'How could this place exist? It's so warm here, yet on the outside of this forest it's freezing.' I said with my eyes glued on the moving light show in the air.
'That is a mystery Levi, I have no idea how this place exists, I'm just happy it did, because then today wouldn't have happened,' he said gently. I giggled and planted a kiss on his cheek.
'Well, it must've been fate then' I quipped and I heard him chuckle as he untangled his legs from mine and unwrapped his arms from around me.
'There's one more thing I have to give you, no first date is complete without flowers,' he said with a wink. I sat there dumbstruck with my mouth hanging open. Slowly he brought the back pack over and sat down. He reached inside it and pulled out a box that was wrapped with colorful hearts and topped with a large red ribbon. Slowly he held it out to me, and hesitantly, I took it and examined it.
'Go ahead...open it,' he said while leaning forward slightly, his eyes eager and encouraging me to open it.
'You...You really didn't have to,' I said softly while pulling of the ribbon and unwrapping the present. It revealed a cardboard box, but there was something inside it. It was kind of heavy, and I was curious to know what it was. I lifted off the lid and reached inside, only to feel something cold touch my finger tips.
'What the...' I began, but before I could finish my sentence, it was cut off with a small gasp. There in my hands, in metal cylinder with glass surrounding the middle so it could display what was inside was a beautiful blue rose.
'Oh...oh Ray,' I said as my voice began breaking up. Carefully Ray took it from my hands and settled it on the ground, allowing me to once again to leap on him while kissing him multiple times on the lips.
It's beautiful Ray!' I shouted while giving him another kiss. He blushed deep red as his smile broadened.
'But...How did you do it?' I asked suspiciously. Obviously no ordinary shop sold blue roses.
'I have a friend, who makes these, it takes her like a week though,' he said sheepishly. He caressed my face softly and kissed me deeply, my arms wrapped around his neck, is body close to mine. Tonight was the best night of my life, and that night, I was ecstatic.
His hand was wrapped around mine as we pulled up into my driveway. All the lights in the house were off, and the clock read about 2 in the morning. I felt his hand tighten around mine as he stared into my eyes.
'You know...you don't have go inside...you can stay with me for the night...' he said softly. I slowly shook my head know and placed my hand on top of his.
'I'm sorry Ray...I can't...I want to but I can't.' I replied. His eyes were pleading me to say yes, but I knew that I couldn't. I leaned in and kissed him on the lips and I placed my hand on his cheek.
'Ray...I know you're worried, but please don't be. I'll be alright; he's probably gone by now to some bar.' I said reassuringly.
'I just don't want him to hurt you again....I love you so much, Levi Colligan,' he said with his lips inches from mine.
'Ray...tonight was the greatest night of my life, it's been a long time since I was that happy, thank you so much Ray and....' I said to him as I stared at him in adoration.
'I love you to...Ray Matelli,' I whispered before finally kissing him deeply. Quickly he pulled me into a powerful hug while whispering endearments into my ears. I felt myself tearing up once again, I didn't want to leave him, I wanted to stay with him...forever. We got out of the car and lead me to my doorstep, and stared at me through the shadows.
'Guess this is the end of our date...' he said sadly. I smiled and kissed him.
'But not the end of our relationship,' I said happily. I saw him grin broadly and pulled me into a powerful hug and planted a big kiss on my lips.
'Haha hell yea,' he growled while rubbing our noses together. I giggled and snuggled into his chest, feelings the words once again swell in my chest.
'I love you Ray!' I quipped. I heard him chuckle and his arms gave me a gentle squeeze.
'I love you mooore,' he teased. I groaned in annoyance while I felt myself blushing again.
'Lets not get into this argument,' I said while giving his neck a small nibble. A laugh boomed from him as he pressed me up against the wall of the porch.
'Mmm you're too cute,' he growled and began kissing me passionately. I parted my lips as he slid his tongue inside and mine slid into his. I felt his hand slowly snake up my shirt and gave my nipple a gently pinch, causing me to moan as he kissed his way down my neck. He gently suck on my neck as I felt his hands lift up my shirt, exposing my bare skin to the cold night air while he used his other hand to tease my rising bulge. Slowly he made his way back up to my lips and I felt his hand lower my shirt and return to my waist.
'That's what you get for being so damn cute,' he growled while licking my earlobe. I blushed and pecked him on the cheek.
'Are you trying to get in my pants?' I questioned while pinching his nose.
'Maybe...' he said while shuffling his feet against the ground. I gave him one last kiss.
'To bad...I don't put out on the first date,' I teased.
'Haha I know babe,' he said while ruffling my hair. Reluctantly he pulled away from me and slowly walked away while holding my hand until the distance broke us apart. He started up his car and I could see him blowing me a kiss. I made a gesture of catching it and holding it against my chest as I used my other hand to wave. I stayed on the front step until his car was out of sight, and with that, I stepped inside and quickly rushed up to my room and opened the backpack and took out the rose. Inside was a charger for the machine and a note scrawled onto a piece of notebook paper.
'Levi, plug this in so it can keep the Rose cold so it won't die, as long as you do this it should live for a very long time, love, Ray,'
I felt a smile form on my lips as I plugged the machine in and sat down and stared at the rose. It was a light blue, and it was incredibly beautiful. I changed out of my clothes and into my pajamas, and while I was changing, I noticed there was a hickey on my neck. I blushed and touched it with my finger tips. Ray gave me a hickey?! I stared at it for a few more seconds before walking out of the bathroom. I sighed lovingly as I took one last glimpse at it before I turned off the lights and crawled into the bed, still tingling from happiness, and still smiling from happiness.
I woke up with the smile still plastered on my face. I was walking on air while I went through my routine, and even sang while I was in the shower. When I stepped out of the shower, I heard a knock on the door. I bounded down the steps and opened it and leapt into Rays arms. He swung me around and kissed me with a smile on his lips. He placed me down on my feet and realized I was in a robe. He blushed and then grinned devilishly.
'Ohhh...were you already ready for me? How sweet, I need to get rid of my morning wood anyway,' he said while pulling me close. I laughed and pushed him away.
'Haha no! I just got out of the shower!' I said.
'Awww come on, not even a peek?' he said while pulling the neck of my robe a little out and tried looking down. I yelped and closed my robe while blushing and taking a few steps back. He laughed and grabbed me so he could hug me. Finally, we calmed down a bit and he kissed the top of my head.
'Get dressed, we're gonna be late for school,' he quipped. I groaned in annoyance and quickly got dressed and ran back down to find Ray snoozing on the couch. I smiled slyly and tiptoed over to him and began gently climbing on top of him. I rested my head against his chest and listened to his even breathing as he laid there. I felt him shift and he nuzzled his face into my hair as his arms encircled my body and his fingers gently poked my sides, making me jump a little.
'When did you get there?' he said groggily. I giggled while he pecked my nose and slowly got up, obviously not wanting to go to school.
'Do we have to go to school?' he groaned while placing his around my shoulders. I slumped under his weight as he continuously added more and more pressure, and soon my knees were shaking as I attempted to drag him towards the door,
'You're so heavy, fatty!!!!!' I yelled and then I heard Ray suck in some air.
'Excuse me?!' He said and took his arm off of me.
'You heard me; fatty fatty two by four couldn't fit through the kitchen door!' I said with a smile. He narrowed his eyes and grabbed my hand and pushed it against his exposed six pack.
'Does this feel like fat to you?' he growled as I enjoyed the touch of his washboard abs. I blushed and looked away as he pulled me close.
'Mmm, I'm guessing that s a no, right?' he whispered. I stuck my tongue out and he quickly bent down and gave it a small lick. I yelped and I felt myself blush even more. He chuckled and kissed me while discreetly snaking his hand up my shirt and poked my side, making me yelp and giggle.
'Well you're not fatty either, in fact, you got a nice toned tummy there,' he quipped while nibbling on my neck. I pushed him away and bounded toward the door.
'Shut up! We're gonna be late,' I said while laughing and quickly he chased me out the door and into the back seat, making sure to land right on top of me as he dove in. I wriggled from under him as we laughed together and pecked small kisses on each other's faces or necks. After a bit, we calmed down and I checked the time on the digital clock of the car.
'BAH! 15 minutes to get to school, move!!!!' I yelped as I wriggled out from under him and dove into the front seat, He chuckled and dove into the driver's seat, started up the car, and revved the engine.
'Step on it!' I yelled and laughed while Ray pulled me into a headlock and gave me a noogie.
'I don't take orders,' he growled while nipping my ear and soon we arrived at the school with 5 minutes to spare, and my heart racing.
'Never...drive...like that...again,' I said while still clinging to the edge of my seat.
'I'll do what I want,' he said while giving me one last deep kiss and jogged towards the school
The rest of the week was normal. I would either go to Ray's house after school are Ray would sneak into my room late at night and cuddle with me while watching a late night show. Our relationship was great, and it was all I could ask for. He was kind, and sweet, but fun and adventurous. God I couldn't get enough of him! He was my first love, and he was my first kiss. He was the first person that I have ever said I love you to, and I was happy I did. I love his hugs, his smiles, his kiss, his sweet tender words, his kind eyes, everything. To me, he was flawless, a deity that I wanted to serve and be with forever.
As we laid together on my bed, I felt his hand gently caress my face. His hand was warm, gentle, loving, and it was never any different. There was never any forcefulness or anger when he touched me, and I loved that so much. I loved how there was only love and kindness when I was with him, harsh words were never exchanged, and the only physical contact was kissing, hugging, or tickling. I held his hand against my cheek and closed my eyes as he kissed me. I wriggled closer to him, our legs intertwined and our lips locked together. He was incredibly affectionate tonight, his kisses were deeper, and his words were as sweet as ever. I buried my face into his chest as he rested his chin on top of my head.
'I love you,' he whispered. I giggled and nipped his neck.
'I love you to,' I breathed out as he gave my ear a lick.
'You're so cute, you know that?' he teased while gently pinching my nose. I pulled away and crinkled my nose at him.
'You're hot,' I sneered. He smiled and gave me a peck on the lips.
'Mmm, I know, I'm so damn sexy,' he growled while sliding his hand up his shirt. I laughed but then all of the sudden I heard the sound of glass shattering and my father cursing. I heard Ray gasp and immediately I shot out of bed and headed for the door. Before I could get to the door, I felt Ray grab my hand and stare at me with his eyes full of concern, pleading me not to go out.
'Levi...please...don't go,' he whispered while pulling me close.
'Don't worry, I'll be fine, just stay up here....no matter what happens,' I whisper while giving him a soft smile. I gave him a reassuring kiss and he reluctantly let go of my hand as I quickly ran down the stairs and arrived at the kitchen to find my dad swaying and slurring drunken babble.
'Weeeeeelll...if it isn't...the fuggin queer,' he slurred while walking towards me. I took a few steps back and tried talking to him.
'Father...be careful, the neighbors will hear....just put the bottle down and lay down,' I said while trembling with fear. This was the first time I was trying to talk him down, and I was scared shitless. The only reason I was doing this was so that Ray wouldn't have to see my father beating me.
'The fuck are you trying to do?! Talking down on me boy!!!' he yelled and threw the bottle of beer at me. I moved quickly to the side and the bottle shattered against the wall.
'Father...please...calm down...' I said timidly while staring at the ground. I knew things were not going to go well, and that things were going to get ugly.
'Fuck you! Don't you fucking tell me what to do!' he roared and struck my face. I yelped and held the spot where he hit me and I continued to stare at the ground.
'Father please.... People will hear!' I pleaded while stumbling back. Before I knew it, I felt his struck my face again and his hands grasped my neck and he began choking me. I clawed at his hands while trying to keep quiet, his hands were cutting off my breathing, and pain jolted through my body has he threw me against the refrigerator. I slowly stood back up, gasping and wheezing only to have him kick my sides and stomp on my hand.
'Fucking faggit! Don't you talk to me that way!!!' he slurred and brought me up by grabbing a fist full of my hair. I screamed as he quickly pulled me up by my hair and pinned me against the ground and grabbed a kitchen knife and pressed it against my throat.
'Fucking queer...I can kill you here now...no one will know...no one fucking cares about you! You killed your mother, and now I'm stuck with you and you talk to me like that! Fucking ungrateful bitch, no one will fucking notice you're gone you piece of shit, no one care about you!' he hissed while adding more pressure to the knife against my throat. A sob escaped from my mouth as I remembered Ray...he cared about me...he loved me!
'You're...wrong...' I gasped.
'The fuck did you say!' he shouted while shaking me a little. I felt the knife cut a little into my throat and I winced.
'Ray...' I whispered. He stared at me hard in the eyes, and shook me against the wall, making my head bang against the wall and cries of pain escaped from my throat.
'The fuck are you talking about!' he screamed and I felt the knife sink a little deeper. I clenched my teeth together and all of the sudden Ray appeared at the kitchen door, his nostrils flaring, and rage shown brightly in his eyes. I gasped and I felt my hand reach out to him. My father continued to stare at me, trying to get what I was saying.
'Ray...RUN!' I cried. My father turned around and saw Ray rushing towards him. Immediately he dropped the knife as Ray punched him in the face and threw him against the wall. My dad was shouting and trying to fight back but he was too drunk to even aim straight. Ray grabbed him by the throat and slammed him against the wall and stared at him straight in the eyes.
'Fucking touch him again, and I'll kill you!' he hissed. He punched my father in the gut one more time and quickly lifted me up in his arms and rushed me out to his car. He slid me into the passenger seat while draping his jacket over me. I saw tears dripping down his cheeks as he quickly kissed me on the lips. I was dazed and my body racked in pain as he started up the car and shot out of the driveway and down the streets. Words were beyond my control as he drove down the busy streets, his destination was a mystery to me, and I was to shaken up to care. He held my hand as he drove and looked over at me often.
'Where are we?' I asked my voice barely above a whisper.
'My house,' he said firmly as he weaved through the dark streets of Sunrise Lake.
'Why...' I whispered once again. He pulled up into his driveway and turned off the engine. He gently took hold my chin and tilted it towards his face.
'Because you're moving in with me,' he breathed, and gave me a warm and loving kiss.

She went on and on about how great it would be and how all the accessories I want from it are already in stock, etc, etc, etc, I couldn't find anyway to nicely get out of the conversation, it was ridiculous. Useless story, yes, but c'mon, Verizon employees, a bit extreme.

I'll post a patch shortly for those as well. The CSS doesn't support txtlink class well yet, so the icon shows up clumsily on top of the PDF icon right now, but this is a skin issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a powerful tool for high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) medical imaging of anatomical structures and specific organs or tissues within the body. MRI has advantages such as an absence of ionizing radiation, high contrast, high spatial resolution and excellent depth profiling capabilities. The quality and contrast of MRI images can be improved by the use of MRI contrast agents that enhance the image contrast within the tissue of interest by altering the longitudinal (T1) and transverse (T2) relaxation rates of the surrounding water protons. Contrast agents can be classified into either T1 agents such as gadolinium (III) chelates, which increase the T1 relaxation rate and produce a positive image contrast, or T2 agents, such as supermagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, which increase the T2 relaxation rate and produce a negative image contrast. A majority of clinically used contrast agents are Gd3+ chelates, which are favored due to their high paramagnetism, excellent relaxation enhancement, and stability. Unfortunately, most clinically approved contrast agents suffer from rapid clearance from the body and ineffective contrast enhancement hence making them ineffective for angiographic enhancement. In addition, the linear chelates of Gd3+ (e.g., DTPA) have been linked to safety problems related to nephrogenic systemic fibrosis in the clinic. Thus, the use of nanoparticles as carriers for contrast agents are attractive due to their long circulating properties and potential for tissu selectivity through the use of targeting ligands. Not only do such nanoparticles have better pharmacokinetics, they potentially can also carry a much higher Gd3+ loading. Unfortunately, most of the macromolecular and nanoparticle carriers to date suffer from safety issues such as poor renal filtration, hepatobiliary uptake, and bioaccumulation. Additionally, their synthesis and/or self-assembly restricts most of the materials to a spherical shape. We seek to develop long- circulating multivalent Gd3+ MRI contrast agents based on a degradable, flexible rod-like polyrotaxane (PR) scaffold that produces rapidly excreted, low toxicity hydrolysis products. The underlying hypothesis of the proposed polyrotaxane designs are that their flexible rod-like morphology would greatly enhance their pharmacokinetics by restricting macrophage uptake and rapid renal elimination, while providing control over their clearance rates through appropriate selection of the endcap linkages and/or polymer cores, thus addressing a major challenge in the development of next generation contrast media for MRI.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful tool for high-resolution three-dimensional medical imaging of anatomical structures and specific organs within the body. The quality of the images can be improved by the use of MR contrast agents, but unfortunately, many of the currently used agents suffer from rapid clearance, toxicity and/or bioaccumulation issues. This proposal describes the development of degradable MR contrast agents that are designed to avoid these limitations.

ITHACA, N.Y. -Trying to defend its 2015 title, the University of Pennsylvania gymnastics team finished in fourth at the Ivy Classic on Sunday with a score of 191.050. The Quakers fell to eventual co-champions Cornell and Brown, who finished with scores of 193.325.
The highlight of the day for Penn was Elyse Shenberger who scored 9.850 on the uneven bars to give her a share of the individual Ivy title. The senior competed in her final Ivy Classic and added to her already lengthy resume of acolades.
As a team, the Quakers scored 47.975 on the bars and had two gymnasts in the top 10. Kyra Levi joined Shenberger among the top contestants with a 9.700.
The best category of the day for Penn was the floor exercise. The Quakers tallied a 48.025, but had just one gymnast in the top ten. Alex Hartke placed seventh with a 9.700.
Penn has seen a hot streak on the beam in recent meets, and Sunday provided another solid performance. The Quakers scored a 47.725, with Ally Podsednik as the top performer. Podsednik finished eighth with a 9.675
Rounding out the day, the Quakers scored a 47.375 to bring their score to 191.050. Penn had three athletes in the top 10 with Podsednik finishing sixth with a 9.625, Emily Paterson came in seveth with a 9.600, and Morgan Venuti closed out the top 10 with a 9.525.
Penn now turns its attention to Saturday when it will travel to Broad and Diamond to face off against Temple and Bridgeport at 1 p.m.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/11/2013 (1365 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Trish Cooper recalls it as one of the low points of her life. She was returning to Winnipeg from Toronto, feeling somewhat defeated at 34, but happy at the prospect of some home cooking.
When she arrived at her mother's Fort Garry home, she discovered her room had been taken over by a Sudanese refugee. Her peace-activist mother had taken in one of the so-called "lost boys," a laudable charitable act that Cooper initially viewed as another kick when she was down.
"I remember it was a time when I was feeling a little sorry for myself," says Cooper, a longtime comedic writer and performer. "I didn't have a job and was living with my mother. I felt like a loser."
What was worse was the way she regarded her new housemate, who was sleeping in her former bed and driving her mother's car. Then there was the guilt about her woe-is-me moaning, which seemed silly when compared to the hardships of a 22-year-old man who had trekked an extraordinary distance through unforgiving wilderness to seek refuge from his country's fractious civil war.
"I thought, 'How can I complain about anything?' because he had been through a genocide," says the former member of the Royal Liechtenstein comedy troupe, which disbanded in 2003. "We have First World problems, but we can't live our lives constantly glad we aren't Sudanese refugees -- although we should try to be aware of it."
Some of the odd cultural clashes she experienced at home became great stories to entertain her friends, but eventually she began writing them down into a series of sketches that evolved into a script while she was a member of the Playwrights Unit at Prairie Theatre Exchange. Her comedy Social Studies had a staged reading at the 2012 Carol Shields Festival of New Works and premieres at PTE Nov. 21.
The plot generally dovetails with Cooper's real experience, but in Social Studies, Jackie comes home to Val's River Heights home after separating from her husband, hoping for some TLC before she gets back on her feet. Instead, Jackie finds herself stewing on the living room couch while Deng enjoys the comfort of middle-class suburbia for the first time in his life.
"It's complicated trying to do the right thing and I think there is comedy in trying to be a good person," says the mother of two children, 3 and 7. "Think about the Eric Robinson controversy about putting on a burlesque show to raise funds for Osborne House. The intentions were right but..."
The "white do-gooders" will be the object of most of the laughs in Social Studies.
"The true story is that it never got to an awful place, it just got irritating," Cooper says. "I came to realize, 'What do I have to complain about?' I think we all need reality checks now and then."
Cooper, 42, is one of the so-called Group of Seven female playwrights who are debuting new plays in Winnipeg this season. Social Studies is also her first produced work after many years of DIY shows such as Year of the Panda (co-written by Vaness Macrae), The Comment Card and Homely Woman #2 at the fringe festival. She is enjoying having a theatre behind her for the first time, taking care of all the maddening details that go into play production.
Her mother was not aware of that new luxury and launched her own publicity campaign.
"My mother made her own handbills for the show and handed them out at Fort Garry United Church," says Cooper, smiling at the thought of such maternal support. "It was adorable and very sweet but I said, 'Mom, they have people who do that.' There are a lot of church people coming to the play. It worked."
Maybe her mother felt she had a considerable stake in Social Studies, since she inspired the story and shares some personality traits with the character of Val. Cooper says she stole a few of her mother's "bits." The playwright had warned her prior to the Carol Shields reading that she might recognize herself.
"When she says Grace, she makes it into a guilt trip," says Cooper, a North Ender. "She's like an old Communist who thinks everyone should share and nobody should have more than they need."
Cooper feels she is surrounded by funny people but recognizes there is a risk to inhabiting her works with real people in disguise. However, she and Macrae did it in Year of the Panda and no one was the wiser.
"There were people who thought we were talking about them, which we weren't and those people we were making fun of had no idea," she says.
Cooper keeps notes of comic nuggets from her life and jots them down where they don't always belong. Fellow Winnipeg playwright Ellen Peterson was visiting Cooper when she noticed the grocery list on the refrigerator read "eggs, milk, dementia," the latter being a cue to a sketch possibility.
"I find humour in everything," she says. "I have a bit of a potty mouth and I can go to a dark place sometime that is maybe a way of coping in my family. My stuff is more absurd and more reality-based. Louis CK talking about his children kills me."
Her mother's guest has gone on to university in Saskatchewan and is flourishing, she says. Cooper would love for him to see Social Studies.
"I think he would get a kick out of it. I think he would get a laugh of us making fun of a white, privileged River Heights family."

Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA) is a C-language code developed to statistically find the best global fit of a nonlinear constrained non-convex cost-function over a D-dimensional space. This algorithm permits an annealing schedule for "temperature" T decreasing exponentially in annealing-time k, T = T_0 exp(-c k^1/D). The introduction of re-annealing also permits adaptation to changing sensitivities in the multi-dimensional parameter-space. This annealing schedule is faster than fast Cauchy annealing, where T = T_0/k, and much faster than Boltzmann annealing, where T = T_0/ln k. ASA has over 100 OPTIONS to provide robust tuning over many classes of nonlinear stochastic systems.

My husband, Gordon, and I have been redecorating together. The good news is that we're still married. The bad news is that if we ever see another paint sample, it'll be too soon. We chose the color for our bedroom from a palette of about a thousand hues. Totally overwhelmed, we finally settled on Sensual Sunrise, only to find that on the walls it looked more like Lost Lunch. There were so many choices in the Land of Pigment that I forgot to honor my own preference, which was for plain old beige.
Smart Women, Bad ChoicesOne of my friends has turned to Internet dating sites to find the man of her dreams. Not long ago, she had an interesting phone conversation with a would-be cybersuitor. He had a long list of qualities that were important to him in a woman, and their first chat seemed more like a job interview. Then he asked what was on her list and was surprised that she didn't have one.

I can sympathize with my friend. For most of my life I was not only "list-less" when it came to men, but I was also clueless. Instead of reflecting on what was really important in the person I was planning to spend a lifetime with, I relied on my "infallible intuition," which all too often turned out to be chemistry or the pull of an old pattern.The best choices are made when facts and intuition--head and heart--both weigh in on a decision. That may sound easy, but there are lots of pitfalls, the most important of which is failing to reflect on what experience tells you about yourself. When I was in high school and college, I went out with a lot of guys. I'd break up with one, only to choose another who was similar. At this my mother would put her hands on her hips and sputter, "Book smart, Joanie. You're book smart. But look here, Miss Smarty Pants, if you don't start learning from your experiences, you're going to have a very unhappy life."
Walk This WayThere are several steps you can take that will usually land you at the door to the right decision. First, ask yourself if it's an important choice or a casual choice. Paint is casual; deciding to have a child as a single woman is important. Ask, In 6 months or a year, will this choice matter to me? If it won't, don't sweat over it--it's casual. If it will, recognize that it's important and treat yourself with respect. Making a critical decision in a snap is disrespectful.Copyright © 2017 Rodale Inc.

This is our second stay at a Marriott Vacation Club resort. Our first was a few years ago at the Surf Club in Aruba. We had high expectations after staying there and we were hoping for a similar experience. Well, the Marriott Vacation Club Ocean Watch Villas in Myrtle Beach did not disappoint! We were thrilled with the stay, amenities, pools, beach, and everything about this resort.
RESORT: Absolutely beautiful and very well maintained. All the staff we encountered were very friendly – from front desk staff, to housekeeping, to loss prevention (we locked ourselves out of our unit). All the rooms at this resort, to my knowledge, are two bedroom dedicated units. There are five buildings total – 3 are what I would call beach-front, and 2 are in the back of the property behind the 3 front ones. Room types are Ocean Front and Ocean Side which are available in the front three buildings, and Ocean View (higher floors) and Garden View (lower views) which are available in the back two buildings.
AMENETIES: Starbucks coffee served in the Marketplace in the main building in the front. Had it several days and was always good. Also a Pizza Hut Express right there as well. They also had fresh breakfast sandwiches for purchase every morning. The Market Place was great for picking up small items you may need. There are gas infrared grills scattered throughout the resort. They are cleaned every morning and are a wonderful place to cook a meal, or like me to heat up garlic bread and avoid the after-smell in the room! They have daily activities for all to do – a calendar is given to you at checkin. We did Smores one evening and our kids painted sea shells one afternoon.
ROOM: Beautiful rooms. Everything you need to live there for the time you are visiting. We rented (not owners) so we had daily room service included. Owners, from what I understand, do not have the room service and have to pay daily for the cleaning if they want it. There are only five rooms per floor so there is very little foot traffic in your hallway and I can safely say I was never once bothered by slamming doors. Each unit has a 2 queen bed room and a 1 king room. The king room has it's own bathroom with large tub and separate standing shower. The queen room has a 'shared' bathroom with just a tub/shower combo unit. The living area had plenty of seating: Fold out couch and two chairs/ottmans. There was seating for 6 at the kitchen table. One of the highlights of the room was the balcony: very large and comfortable. Although, the sliding door to get out there was very heavy and required some real elbow grease to open and close. Room keys are radio type cards and not magnetic so no worrying about ruining the keys with cell phones or other credit cards (actually a great feature if you know what I'm talking about). We locked ourselves out one evening and the front desk would not give us a key since we did not have ID (this is a great thing). We called loss prevention from the elevators and they were there within two minutes to let us in our room - - and yes they checked our IDs as soon as we got in. That's great security!
POOLS/GYM: There are several pools. The main pool is located in the middle of the front three buildings. It's mostly what I call a concrete area – not many trees. It was a popular area at all times for both adults and families. There was a bar located right there as well. The Woodsy pool is in the back in front of the two taller buildings. It's a beautiful area with lots of trees and shade. This pool has the zero entry splash zone for kids with a water slide for them as well. It's a very large pool and appeared to be most popular with families and kids. This area also had a bar for food, drinks, and kids items but was only open till 4pm. Adjacent to this pool is a more secluded 'serenity' pool that is quiet. This was a very popular pool for the adults. There are several whirlpools throughout the property. We never had a problem with crowds at any of the pools and were always able to get seats. A few days we didn't even arrive at the pool till 10. Understand this was a September trip as I understand this may not be the case in prime season. All the pools appeared to be heated as they were very comfortable and you could feel the heated water on evening swims. There is also a large indoor pool in the building separating the back two buildings where the gym is located. I used the gym everyday and it's great. Plenty of equipment: 6 treadmills, 6 elliptical machines, stair steppers, free weights, and Nautilus type weight machines. There is also a gigantic tree house for kids to play in – man do I wish these things existed when I was a kid.
BEACH: Very nice beach. The area just north of the Ocean Watch Villas is completely quiet so there is plenty of room for all the guests at the beach. There is a life guard service that you can purchase 2 chairs and an umbrella for the day. The entire day costs $30 if you are interested – they do give you a break if you rent them for more than one day.
SUGGESTIONS: If you have kids, stay in the back two buildings (Ocean View or Garden View) as your kids will love the Woodsy pool areas. The walk to the beach is not that bad and we did it twice a day with a 5 and 3 year old with no problems. The parking garage is located right behind the buildings for these two buildings which makes coming and going very easy also. If ocean view is the most important factor then ocean front will get you there but I understand they are harder to come by and go mostly to the owners which is understandable.
SUMMARY: If you have a family the Ocean Watch Villas is your place. Great pool areas with lots to do. Excellent beach area. The resort has lots of daily activities for kids, adults, and families. And the rooms are perfect! The location is awesome too….I think it's in the perfect area of Myrtle Beach.

When your GMC C1500 was born, it was destined for a driver who values longevity in their automobile. Your GMC dealership isn't the only place to buy genuine or original equipment quality replacement parts for your C1500. Car aficionados know that a brand you can trust is built into each GMC, and understand that only the highest quality replacement C1500 parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done. Anyone who operates a GMC knows that when it comes to repairing their vehicle only the highest quality replacement parts will do.
Keeping the interiors of our cars and trucks cool and comfortable has been possible since HVAC was pioneered around 70 years ago. The air conditioning uses a refrigerant called R134a to fuel a thermal reaction that emits cold air, and it tends to accumulate moisture as it cycles through the HVAC system in your GMC C1500. Between your A/C condenser and the expansion valve is the receiver drier, and it absorbs the water in the line and stores it in a desiccant so the refrigerant can cool your interior. Any time you perform work on your air conditioning system, you must change your GMC C1500 A/C receiver drier or accumulator.
Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Don't let a A/C Receiver Drier & Accumulator repair spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by installing anything but the highest quality replacement parts. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents available with enough expertise to help you purchase the appropriate GMC C1500 part for your needs. When it comes to GMC C1500 A/C Receiver Drier & Accumulator parts, you can find them for 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1986, 1985, 1984, 1983, 1982, 1981, 1980, 1979 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

Superfund Site: SHENANDOAH STABLES
Superfund Site Profile
The 7-acre Shenandoah Stables Site is located near Moscow Mills, Missouri. In 1971, a waste oil hauler sprayed a horse arena on site with dioxin-contaminated oil to control dust. Over 40 horses died and people became ill after the spraying. The same year, the contaminated soil was excavated and used as fill material in a new highway. More soil was removed from the arena and placed in a swampy area on the site in 1972. Following these actions, the soil at the arena remained contaminated. Site cleanup was completed in 1997. EPA removed the site from the Superfund program's National Priorities List (NPL) in 2001.

Rich Warren: Digital or analog, it's all about celebrating music
We live in an age of cognitive dissonance. Dissonance being a particularly appropriate word, as it is often applied to musical clashes.
This cognitive dissonance began building the day the compact disc arrived. Initially everyone wanted everything digital. Most listeners prized CDs like precious gems.
Then the inevitable backlash arrived. A significant number of the golden ears community railed against the cold, harsh digital sound. To some extent they were correct. Many, perhaps most, early CDs were recorded without acknowledging the difference between analog and digital on primitive hardware.
Since 1990, the recording world see-sawed between appreciating the many attributes of digital recordings and glorifying analog and the LP record.
Interestingly, digital video eluded the same reaction. No one wants to return to even Super VHS or laserdiscs. Some people prefer analog television, but that's because of reception issues, not video quality.
The movie industry is forcing theaters to convert entirely to digital projection, even though the best 35mm film prints look better than the best currently available digital. Because conventional analog film projectors are huge, hot and very expensive, most cinematistes view digital video at home.
While LPs demonstrated some merit, the CD's portable competition during its first two decades, the compact cassette, garnered no tears when it quickly faded around the turn of the millennium. Digital Audio Tape and Sony's flawed MiniDisc never truly competed with either the LP or the CD.
So back to dissonance. As everything becomes digital, the popular quality of digital audio declines. Although audiophiles can download high bit rate files from the Internet, most everything commonly available is slightly lower and in some cases much lower than CD quality. This partially explains the increasing resurgence of analog and the LP record. There's more to this than meets the ear.
A magazine that I read interviews musicians and record producers extolling the virtues of analog sound. Many admit they love the noise and distortion inherent in analog recordings. Some even record digitally and then use specialized software to recreate the equivalent of analog sound. A depressing number of professionals disparage noise-free, nearly distortion free high bit rate digital sound quality.
Meanwhile, I estimate about 90 percent of us accept and listen to music encoded in the MP3, MP4, AAC and similar data reduction systems. Using sophisticated algorithms, these take digital sound and discard large amounts of data that theoretically don't contribute to sound we perceive.
Of course, when you approach the lower extremes of MP3 and similar codecs (encode decode), you definitely hear the loss of quality. An average MP3 bit rate reduces the size of a sound file by 75-80 percent (or more). That's why you can cram dozens of hours of audio into a postage stamp-sized iPod.
The lingering question involves the human brain and listener fatigue. Do we grow tired of listening to recorded music because of the stress of concentrating, or do we tire because our brain works overtime to reconstruct the jumble we hear into pleasing sound?
In the analog age, we wearied of noise, hum and distortion as the brain strove to ignore these and concentrate on the music. In the digital age does the brain work extra hard to fill in the missing pieces removed by the MP3 algorithm?
Of course, experts in the psycho-acoustics field deny this while audiophiles cringe.
Even when attending live concerts, microphones, amplifiers and speakers separate most of us from the musicians. Only if you spend time in the Foellinger Great Hall at Krannert Center for the Performing Arts or similar venues attending classical music concerts do you actually hear music unadulterated by electronics. Even Broadway shows and operas use sound reinforcement.
The only moral to this story celebrates music. Music means so much to nearly all of us that we put up with every conceivable means to hear it. Some people dedicate their lives to listening as flawlessly and perfectly as possible to music's reproduction.

CARVE your own bespoke ring in jeweller's wax. Get creative, and make a piece of jewellery unique to you.
After the workshop, your piece will be cast in silver and professionally finished, and you'll have it back in your hands in two to three weeks.
Add to your own collection or create a unique gift for someone else. Included in the class will be the wax, use of professional jeweller's tools, expert tuition and your finished silver cast. Refreshments provided.
Founder of Vanilla Ink Studios, Kate Pickering and Glasgow-based jeweller Katie Lees bring you CARVE: fun and relaxed pop-up jewellery workshops in exciting venues across Scotland.
Kate and Katie's CARVE workshops draw out your inner creativity and combine it with their jewellery know-how. During theirCARVE classes, you'll use jeweller's wax and a selection of professional tools to carve and create a bespoke, one-off ring, completely unique to you. The workshop lasts two hours and within that time you will be guided with expert tuition to help you achieve your ideas.
Once you have CARVEd your design, Kate and Katie take the wax rings and send them to a company in Birmingham who cast the wax into solid silver (using the process of lost wax casting). The silver rings are sent back to CARVE to be hand finished in their Glasgow-based workshop and posted out to their rightful owner. Within 2-3 weeks you will have your bespoke ring to don upon your finger and impress the rest!
Find out more about the CARVE process:
This workshop will run from 1.30pm to 3.30pm on Saturday 5 August 2017.

|DC Holker
|Police Detective Constable
|First appearance
|15th January 2003
|Last appearance
|23rd November 2003
|Number of appearances
|Played by
|Andrew Vincent
DC Holker assisted DI Mannery with the investigation into the murder of Maxine Peacock and the brutal assault on Emily Bishop in January 2003, both crimes committed by Richard Hillman although no one knew this at the time.
Holker, along with Mannery, conducted a wholly unsympathetic interrogation of a grief-stricken Ashley Peacock, insinuating that he had a drink problem and, stating that he was no oil painting, asking blatantly if Ashley had paid money for a beautiful woman like Maxine to marry him. Holker asked if Maxine had anyone else on the side. Ashley's solicitor, Kathleen Fearn, demanded a break from the questioning but Mannery initially refused. When a break did occur, Mannery returned to say that Ashley was being released as an important development had occurred (Aidan Critchley, set up by Richard, had been found squatting in the vacant hardware shop on Victoria Street and arrested with items from the Peacocks' house in his possession, all planted by Hillman). Ashley bitterly asked how Mannery and Holker could sleep at night. The latter replied that they wouldn't catch Maxine's killer by being nice.
In November of the same year, Holker and another colleague called to 12 Coronation Street to speak with Steve and Karen McDonald after Steve's father Jim absconded from Holmes Gate Prison on day release from where he had been serving a sentence for manslaughter imposed three years before. Jim hid in the cavity under the hot water boiler in the airing cupboard while Holker asked Steve if he had seen his father. Steve commented that the flat was the last place he was bound to make for but the policemen insisted on searching the property. They failed to find Jim and Steve and Karen were able to get him to Blackpool where he was desperate to see wife Liz who he suspected was having an affair with her boss Laurie Dyson in The Black Dog pub where she worked.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Car 1(me) stopped at traffic light behind a few other cars. Car 1 gets rear ended and is not pushed into others. Didn't get out to assess but pulled over after seeing an SUV with crashed front pass slowly on the right. Parked on right hand cross street to watch the SUV crazily try to drive away oblivious to me trying to get her attention. Then realized there was another car that actually hit my car from the rear. This car #2 was rear ended by the car #3 that drove away. Driver for car 3 apprehended and DUI. Didn't see, but assume that car 3 pushed car 2 into car 1. Witness stopped to help. Can't afford rental car, ours badly damaged. How do I seek compensation for my car and Dr. bills? I only have liability, but clearly at no fault. Want to expedite this because I need wheels!
I am glad that you sought medical attention first and I hope that you are feeling better. The way to expedite the process of receiving compensation is to hire a car accident personal injury attorney and bring all pertinent medical and insurance records to the meeting. Car accident attorneys often offer free consultations to understand what the details of the case are and how to best advocate on the clients behalf. I have over 20 years of experience in successfully handling car accident cases across California and I would be more than happy to review your case. I hope that I can be of greater service to you.

Car 1 was stopped and then rearended by car 2. Car 2 was stopped and was pushed by car3. Car 3 is liable for bot damages. If you only have liability you can recover only for medical bills and car repairs. To expedite, hire a lawyer. Best of luck.

Relaxation is one of the elemental forces that keeps human bodies alive, alongside air, water, fire, and antifire. Ease into your element with today's Groupon to Aura at the Beach Salon & Spa in Long Beach. Choose between the following options:
For $39, you get a 60-minute European, deep-tissue, or sports massage (an $80 value).
- For $55, you get a spa package (a $130 total value) that includes:
- A 60-minute European, deep-tissue, or sports massage (an $80 value)
- A 30-minute mini facial (a $50 value)<p>
Aura at the Beach's team of licensed therapists and aestheticians revives rattled, rugged bodies through sinew-smoothing massages coupled with skin-nourishing facials. Visitors abandon the stresses of the outdoor world by slipping under the plush purple covers of a massage table for a one-hour kneading session. Dexterous hands administer European, deep-tissue, or sports-massage techniques to assuage the muscle aches and pains associated with napping on whack-a-mole machines. After tension flees from sore musculature in a rush of relaxation, an aesthetician indulges faces with a 30-minute mini facial aided by Jane Iredale skincare products.
Guests can wile away the afternoon sipping complimentary cappuccino tea, wine, or bottled water within a tranquil setting marked by cream-yellow walls and expansive windows that let in natural light. Located a stone's throw from the beach, Aura at the Beach allows guests to complete their treatment with a stroll along the boardwalk or a water-polo match against migrating turtles.
Aura at the Beach Salon & Spa
In an interview with the Long Beach Herald, Aura at the Beach Salon & Spa's owner Christopher Guardino characterized his business as a dream come true. A native of Long Island's south shore, Guardino relishes the chance to combine his enthusiasm for hairstyling with his love for the beach. Along with cutting, coloring, and teaching hair how to read, Guardino uses his 17 years of styling experience to help cancer survivors to regain their looks and confidence—there's a private room in the salon for those who wear hairpieces. Aside from hair services, the salon and spa offers a variety of beauty and relaxation treatments, including makeup application, waxing, massage, and facials.

A Master Artisan
Dr. Albright was the emergency surgeon on call the evening my son, a downhill mt biker,found himself in the ER. He had shattered his L. wrist, or as Dr put it "pulverized it" along with pulling the L.thumb tendon across the elbow to rest opposite from it's original position. It was now midnight, and with a proceedure that would be very intense and take at least 3 or 4 hours, he took time to sit with me and explain the procedure in layman terms. I felt his kindness and confidence and was put at ease. He then ordered the cadaver bone (fearing he would have to fashion the end of the radius anew)and made his way to surgery.The next time we spoke was at 4am. Surgery was a great success. The cadaver bone was not used, instead a very experienced and accomplished surgeon took 7 screws and one plate and made a wrist. One week later my son had approx 70 percent mobility. Within four months he was at 75 percent. It's been 2 years now and he has a good 98 percent use and mobility of his arm, and that is absolutely fantastic.

text: Prompt December 9 Yesterday at dance was super hard. The teacher made everyone go into their middle splits. I can go all the way down. She noticed this and made me put on leg on a chair and go into it. It hurt ALOT, But I did it if it would help me more with my flexibility. All the girls were saying it hurt going into theirs. They should have been in my shoes. I literally felt like my hip was going to pop out of its socket. Witch is a good thing it didn't. Then the teacher let every one come out. The thing is was that I had to hold the other side for just as much time.

Scientific Data Reproducibility, a conversation – July 23, 2014, 1 pm EST
Posted on July 16th, 2014 in Anita Bandrowski, Author, Data Spotlight, Webinar Announcement | 2 Comments »
Drs. Martone of NIF and Iorns of Science Exchange among others address important issues around reproducibility of data.
A video recording of this event is available here. Note you have to register to see it.
Title: Improving Scientific Reproducibility In The Life Sciences: Considerations for Researchers, Publishers and Life Science Tool Providers
Date: July 23, 2014 * completed * video available
Time: 1:00 PM Eastern (10:00 AM Pacific)
Duration: 90-minutes
In recent years scientific reproducibility has been a topic of much debate. This debate has been sparked in part by the now infamous "Amgen Study" conducted by Glenn Begley and team that found fewer than 7 of 53 landmark pre-clinical studies published between 2002 and 2012 could be reproduced as described in the initial publication.
The factors that contribute to poor reproducibility in pre-clinical research are complex; some relate to systemic problems in how research is conducted and funded while others relate to how research is documented and published. Recently the role that scientific suppliers, publishers and researchers can play in improving research reproducibility has come into sharp focus. Improving reagent traceability and documentation in literature have been identified as areas that can make a significant contribution to increased reproducibility.
This webinar will bring together thought leaders that are behind some of these efforts and explore how their projects are contributing to the goal of improving scientific reproducibility.
Austin Soplata
Will a video of this webinar be posted?
The registration page will allow you to view the video, though it seems really counter-intuitive that you have to "register for the event" when the event is completed. I will update the main text of the blog to reflect this.
