Gay rights advocates protest outside Warren's Saddleback Church
Published: Monday, January 19, 2009 at 11:10 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 19, 2009 at 11:10 a.m.
LAKE FOREST, Calif. Gay rights supporters marched outside the church of evangelical pastor Rick Warren, protesting his selection as an inauguration speaker.
About 100 protesters waved rainbow flags Sunday and voiced their displeasure at Warren for his opposition to gay marriage and at President-elect Barack Obama for choosing him to give the invocation at Tuesday's ceremony.
John Einsohn, one of the protest's organizers, tells the Orange County Register that Warren "preaches intolerance while pretending to be a friend of the gay community."
Warren did not deliver a sermon Sunday at Saddleback Church, and his chief of staff declined to comment.

Obviously, you didn't buy your Venza unless you understood you would be getting Japanese engineering and a brand you can trust both impeccably combined into one automobile. It's not all the time that you discover you need a replacement Air Filter & Cleaner to fix your vehicle. The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs on the road today. Car aficionados appreciate the a variety of features and options built into each Toyota, and understand that only the highest quality replacement Venza parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done.
The key to engine power is clean fuel and clean air. Your Toyota Venza has an internal combustion engine that mixes fuel with air before it detonates, and an air filter needs to remove dust and debris before it is ignited. Without an air filter or air cleaner in your engine, your fuel would be filled with particulates from outside. This will plug up your injectors and rob your engine of fuel; making it difficult for your engine to generate power. And unless your Toyota Venza air filter is replaced regularly your engine will be robbed of the necessary air flow needed to maintain optimum fuel efficiency. Clearly, replacement air filters are a necessity for everyone.
Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents on the phone with enough expertise to help you buy the correct Toyota Venza part for your needs. Given all the hassles associated with installing a part to fix your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make buying it easy. Just choose your year from the list below to find the right Toyota Venza Air Filter & Cleaner for your 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 model.

Casablanca. The Notebook. Brokeback Mountain. There's something about epic love stories that can soften even the hardest of hearts. And it doesn't matter whether you're single or attached, what culture you live in or how you make your living; Great love stories are universal.
Even romantic comedies have a long tradition of inspiring our love lives: Think of Some Like It Hot or When Harry Met Sally. Or the love story at the center of Kristan Higgins' new book from Harlequin, Waiting On You, which has many of the light-hearted and hilarious elements of our favorite rom coms, while maintaining a powerful message at its core.
The book tells the story of Colleen and Lucas, one-time sweethearts who get a second chance at love. Unforeseen circumstances separated the pair, but now — a decade later — they're reunited and find that their chemistry is still alive.

I'm not calling you a ghost, just stop haunting me
And I love you so much, I'm gonna let you kill me
There's a ghost in my lungs and it sighs in my sleep
Wraps itself around my tongue as it softly speaks
Then it walks, then it walks with my legs
To fall at your feet
There but for the grace of God go I
And when you kiss me, I am happy enough. . .
-I'm Not Calling You a Liar, Florence + the Machine
When he sorts his mail in the kitchen, he finds the postcard. It depicts two giraffes with their feet splayed, necks dipped to a watering hole somewhere in Africa. The giraffes are spindly, the water grey-blue against the browns and yellows of the landscape.
Castle flips the postcard over and sees Beth's handwriting, cramped to get in as much as she can, but still fluid and thin and graceful. A lot like Kate's handwriting. The card is postmarked from Mbarara, Uganda, where Beth has been working with a relief agency.
It's addressed to Kate though. Which makes him smile. Beth has been pushing Kate to move in with him since. . .since forever. Since he met Beth. Kate's younger sister has been sending all of her mail to his address. There's also a postcard for Alexis in the stack as well; he fishes it out and calls for his daughter.
Alexis hops down the stairs with a grin. "Yeah?"
"Postcard from Beth."
"Oooh, awesome. We've been chatting online as much as we can, but with the time difference, it's hard to get everything in."
"So is addressing Kate's postcards to our apartment your idea or Beth's idea?" he says, raising an eyebrow at her as he pulls milk from the fridge.
He hears his daughter's low laugh. "Um. . .kind of a brain storm session on that one."
"You guys are gonna push too hard one of these days," he warns her, but leans forward and kisses her forehead. "Sorry, I didn't make it to dinner. Want some hot chocolate with me?"
"Sure. Let me go get my homework and do it down here. Where's Kate?"
"She's on her way," he replies, shrugging out of his jacket and unbuttoning his collar. Alexis grabs his jacket before he can toss it towards a chair, shakes her head at him, and drapes it over the couch.
"Is she staying the weekend?"
"I think so. I can usually convince her." Truth is, Kate needs very little convincing. He just doesn't understand why she won't move in. "Get your homework. It'll be ready in a few."
He pours milk into a saucepan and turns on the burner. He yawns to himself and rubs his eyes, then hears the key in the lock.
He isn't expecting Kate so soon; she said she wanted to finish paperwork. She pushed him out the door, told him to see his daughter before she had to go to bed.
The front door opens to reveal Kate wrestling to get her key back out of the lock. She complains that he gave her the bad key, the one that sticks, but it works fine for him. He always says that she's transferring her psychological issues to the key instead, that it's all in her head. They both laugh about it.
But it's not really funny. He wants her to stay with him for good, not just for the weekends.
She drops her bag in the hall and the keys on the table, then comes towards the kitchen with a soft, weary smile. But it's a smile. She kicks off her shoes beside the island and steps around it and into his arms, kissing his throat.
He hums and captures her mouth, curling a hand in her hair. "Couldn't stay away?"
She laughs that low, sexy sound that's almost a purr. "Got me."
"Glad you're here," he whispers into her mouth, kissing her again, again, unable to help himself. They steal moments in the precinct of course, a gentleness just inside the elevator, a brushing of hands as they sit down at the interrogation table, a hundred looks, sometimes a hug int he break room. But pressing her against him and having her arch her body into his. . .
He can't get enough of it.
"Alexis still up?"
"Yeah. She's coming downstairs with homework."
"Mm, making hot chocolate?"
"Yeah. Still cold."
She nods and kisses his cheek before stepping back, leaning against the island countertop. "My fingers are still numb."
They spent most of today outside, chasing one lead to the next, rounding up suspects. A homeless man in a drainage culvert, a doctor at a free clinic, a woman panhandling. Leads that eventually led to their arresting a guy for murder.
All in the bitter temperatures. He's not a fan of the cold, but he loves the bright pink it puts in Kate's cheeks, loves the soft sweaters she wears and the gorgeous, designer coats and the way she grows her hair out longer to keep her neck warm.
"Oh," he says suddenly, snapping his fingers. "This came for you." He reaches around her to the stack of mail, digs out the postcard, and hands it over. He turns back to the stove and stirs the milk absently while he watches her read it.
At the end of it, Kate smiles to herself and shakes her head, props up the postcard in front of the fruit bowl on the counter, moves in closer to him. For an instant, Kate lays her head against his back, sighs softly, then she heads for the fridge.
"Tired?" he murmurs, glancing at her warily.
She nods, scanning the fridge with a hand in her hair, raking it back. He's got Kate's finally-home routine down to a science. In thirty seconds, she'll have to grab a rubber band and pull her hair back, and then after that, she's changing into more comfortable clothes.
She shuts the door without taking anything, then turns around, her hand once more going through her hair. "You have any. . .graham crackers?"
"Graham crackers? Uh. You can check. Pantry."
She nods and slips over to the pantry door, opens it and stands in front like she did with the fridge. He watches the milk bubble and adds cocoa and sugar, trying not to let it scorch.
Kate comes over to him with a grin on her face, holding a box of instant hot chocolate. "You gotta do it the hard way?"
"Microwaved water is no good," he grumbles. "You know you love this better."
She leans in and brushes her lips along his jaw. "I do. But-"
"No way. Put the fake stuff back. Did you find graham crackers?"
"Yeah," she says, moving away from him to return the hot chocolate.
"And. . .?"
She turns a bewildered look on him, shrugs. "Not right. I want. . .something else."
She shrugs and sighs. "I don't know."
Castle stirs the creamy cocoa and milk, adds a little more sugar, then dribbles vanilla into it as well. He's never seen her like this before, but now that he thinks about it, all day she's been. . .off.
Kate slumps to the bar stool and props her chin in one hand; he wriggles an eyebrow at her and she cracks a smile, tired though it is.
"This will fill you up. Then you and I can find some dinner."
He can hear her stomach growl from where he is. She laughs and clutches a hand to her stomach, shaking her head. "I'm starving."
"Eat some graham crackers, Kate. Something. Jeez." He laughs at her and takes the milk off the burner, stirring it, a little entranced by the sound of the ladle against the saucepan, around and around.
"Ooh, let's order in pizza!"
He lifts an eyebrow and glances over his shoulder at her. "Seriously?"
"Yeah," she jumps off the stool and moves around to his side of the kitchen, rifling through the junk drawer for a menu or coupons or something.
"Order from Celeste's," he says, pouring the milk into mugs for all three of them.
"That's expensive-"
"I don't care. It's at least quality pizza." He gives her a funny look; they have a variation of this conversation almost every time. He'll pay extra for the good stuff and she still has these moments of frugality that bely her great-location apartment and her name-brand clothing. Not to mention the shoes.
"All right," she murmurs, pulling the menu out and slipping her phone out of her pocket.
"Alexis!" He puts his daughter's mug at her customary spot and glances towards the stairs in time to see her hurrying down. A textbook cradled against her chest, she's on the phone. Again. She mouths 'thanks' and sits down at the island.
Kate, on the phone with Celeste's, moves away from them, so Castle takes a careful sip of his hot chocolate, wincing as it burns his tongue.
Kate walks back in with a triumphant look. "I ordered three. You demolish one all by yourself, and I could probably do the same. I'm starving."
She brushes a hand over Alexis's braid in greeting, stands at the girl's side at the island. Alexis turns and Castle can see the grin on her face; she hugs Kate.
He reaches out with her mug of hot chocolate, handing it over. "It's hot."
She arches an eyebrow, a rather eloquent way of not saying no duh and wraps both hands around the mug.
"So what did the postcard say?" he asks, leaning his hip against the counter. He figures that staring lustfully at Kate will go over better if he has something to say, an excuse for watching her.
"I actually talked with Beth yesterday."
"I think she's planning a visit. Her service agreement ends in a week."
"Oh. And she's gonna come to the city?"
"Those are her plans. She was telling me she sent a postcard; it was funny to see it show up now."
"Alexis got one too," he adds, nodding to his daughter who is still on the phone. Alexis grins back, winces, and gets up from the island, bringing her mug with her. She wanders away.
"Ah, we were being too loud," Castle whispers.
Kate rolls her eyes at him and takes Alexis's seat, brushing her fingertips over the lines of the textbook, the notebook paper. Castle moves around the island to sit beside her.
"You okay, Kate?"
She nods. "Beth is gonna stay with my dad again."
"That seems like a good idea." He wonders if this is an issue, or if she's just slowly leading up to it.
"She asked. . .she might spend a few nights. . .here."
Kate's head swivels towards his, a frown flirting with her lips. "Sure?"
"Well. . .yes. She's your sister. Why can't she stay with us?"
He sighs, winces. He meant it like she took it, but. . . "My daughter and I."
Her shoulders ease. "Yeah. I just. . .I wanted her to stay with me."
"I'm sure your Dad misses her too."
"No, I know. But she wants to stay with you." Her eyebrows knit together; that tendon in her forehead constricts.
Castle reaches out a hand and uses his finger to smooth it. She bats his hand away. "Castle."
"She wants to stay with you, Kate," he says on a sigh. "She's just. . .making a point. Right?"
"A point."
"Like addressing all her postcards here."
Kate sighs. "I wish she would just leave me alone about this."
Inherent in her statement is the wish that Castle himself would leave her alone about it. He really does try to lay off the subject, but it's hard. He wants her with him, at his home. But he does get it. The idea of it anyway.
"We'll make up - I'll make up the guest room for her. Whenever she wants to. She and Alexis can have a slumber party."
Kate sighs again and leans to one side, sipping the hot chocolate he made. "Thank you. I - I'm sorry."
"For what? Beth?"
She shrugs.
"Hey, no need. I like her. She's your sister. She's good to my kid."
Kate nods and rubs at her face, yanking a hand through her hair. "I need a-"
Castle pulls the rubberband out of his pocket and hands it to her. Kate takes it and secures her hair, then reaches over and snags his hand.
He lets her lace their fingers together, then smiles softly at her. He's not sure what's going on with Kate, but he hopes he can make it better. Easier. He wishes he could do that for her.
"I'm fine," she says softly. "Stop looking at me like that."
It's his turn to shrug. "You went to the jail today."
She nods, waiting on him.
"I just. . .it's got to. . .be hard."
"It's not easy," she answers, giving him that much at least.
He wants to get into this, delve into this part of her that needs to meet Lockwood in that jail every week, waiting in silence for answers that don't come. But the door buzzes and Castle imagines he can already smell the pizza. Celeste's is usually quick to deliver to them.
Kate hops up and holds out her hand, raising an eyebrow at him. He grins, loving it, entirely too much maybe, and pulls out his wallet.
She kisses his cheek, takes his money, and goes to pay for their dinner.
The pizza settles Kate's discontented stomach for a while. She loves the taste of fresh tomato, strong even under the layer of melted cheese, the red and green peppers, crisp and juicy when she takes a bite. She closes her eyes, lets out a moan of pleasure that might or might not be intended for Castle's ears.
Sure enough, his strong arm wraps around her waist, and she shivers when his mouth brushes her temple.
"Stop it right now, Kate Beckett," he warns, his voice low and warm, like honey. Except, much more dangerous.
A smile erupts on her lips, unbidden but irresistible, because of what he does to her. Ten minutes ago, she considered slipping into Castle's bed when she went to change into sweatpants and a shirt; only the delicious smell of the pizza drew her back to the living room.
And now... Now she feels awakened, ready. She wants to play.
"Or what?" She murmurs challengingly, her left hand coming up to palm his cheek.
He takes a sharp breath, then manoeuvres her into his arms, her back meeting the counter. Her heart pounds, welcoming him and the thrill that runs down her spine. Castle takes his time, trails his mouth down her neck, feathers her collarbone, before he comes back up and seals his lips to hers.
She hums her consent, opens up to him, relishing the lazy pace that slowly turns her blood into liquid fire, makes her forget about her day. There's nothing else, no else but him, the languid flick of his tongue against hers, the demanding fingers that dig into her waist.
It's still a mystery to her, how he does that. How quickly, how thoroughly he wipes her mind clean, turns her into this breathless, expectant stranger.
Kate's phone buzzes, the sounds amplified by the marble of the countertop.
She keeps her eyes closed against it, feels Castle's disbelieving growl pouring into her. Still, after only a few seconds, he lets her go, reaches for the phone. She doesn't want to take it. Her day's over; she just wants to lose herself in the man standing right next to her. Surely she can ignore this?
Rick must read the reluctance on her face; he laughs, looking entirely too delighted at her reaction. Okay, well. She snatches the phone from him - might as well see what this is about.
Beth's name is flashing on the screen. Surprised, Kate presses the answer button, mouths her sister's name at Castle. His eyebrows arch in an unvoiced question, and she shrugs.
"Hey, sister," Beth's voice says gaily on the other end of the line, a little breathless, almost drawn out by the surrounding noise.
"Hey yourself," Kate answers, sliding off the bar stool, because she can't stay still when she's on the phone. When her feet touch the ground, though, she experiences a moment of dizziness and sways, catches herself with the help of Castle's arm. He shoots her a concerned look; she waves him off.
She barely ate anything today - the pizza was probably a little too much at once.
Beth is babbling on the phone, like she does when she's nervous, asking questions about Kate's life, too fast for Beckett to make any sort of answer. When she has to stop for breath, the detective asks, "Beth, where are you?"
Her sister laughs, but it's not the usual, bright, confident thing.
"Well, actually, I'm... I'm at the airport. JFK."
There's a beat of silence as Kate adjusts to that unexpected piece of information.
"You mean - you're here? In New York?"
Castle's eyebrows shoot up, but the makings of a smile quickly appear on his face. Beckett registers that, even though her attention is on her sister's voice.
"Yes, yes. In New York. I was going to call Dad, but, you live closer, and I didn't want to worry him..."
"Is there any reason for him to worry?"
Again that breathless, embarrassed little laugh, so unlike Beth. What's going on?
"No, of course not. It's just, I'm coming in early -"
"Yeah, I can hear that. I wasn't expecting you until next week."
Kate tries to take the sharpness out of her voice, but she's never been good at dealing with the unexpected – not in her personal life, anyway. But this is her sister, her little sister, she tells herself, and the warmth that spreads in her chest is real, if a little slow in coming.
"Kate, if this is bothering you..."
"No, no. Don't be silly. I'll meet you at the airport, Beth."
"I can take a cab -"
"Shut up," Beckett says playfully. "You know how much Castle enjoys calling his car service. Well, unless you don't want to wait?"
"Oh, I still have to get my luggage, anyway. And I'm starving, Katie. I'll just order something at the bar and wait for you."
"Sounds like a plan. See you in about forty minutes?"
"Yeah. Thanks, Kate."
Why does she sound so…serious?
"Sure," Kate answers slowly, her brow furrowing. Her sister hangs up the phone and she does the same, pulling her lower lip in between her teeth.
"Everything alright?" Rick asks, his head tilted, watching her intently.
A familiar glimmer of gentle concern is lighting his blue eyes; Kate finds herself smiling at him, stepping into his embrace. She brushes her lips to his neck, his adam's apple, rests her forehead against his jaw.
"Yeah, Rick. I think she's just tired from the long flight."
"So I'm calling the town car, huh?"
Kate sighs. "I don't really feel up to driving tonight."
Castle's mouth moves, warm and inviting, along her hairline. It's a light, tender touch; she doesn't understand the eager response that flares to life inside her.
"If you wanted to stay home, you could have told her to take a cab," he points out.
She closes her eyes, shakes her head. "Mm, no. She's my sister, Castle."
"Or I could go and pick her up, let you stay here and unwind."
A smile sneaks its way onto Kate's lips. "And have the two of you swap whatever Kate stories you still haven't told each other? I don't think so."
He chuckles, drops a kiss to her forehead before letting her go.
"Fair enough. I can drive *you*, though. I'll grab my keys and a jacket. Will you go up and ask Alexis if she wants to come?"
Right. Alexis.
"Yes, of course."
Castle's daughter was still on the phone with Ashley when the pizzas came in, and the writer allowed her to grab a slice and go back to her room, exceptionally. This is pretty big for him, because Castle cares about meals and family time and all those things that Kate has had no use for over the past twelve years.
Kate collides with the red-haired girl at the top of the stairs; Alexis is no longer holding her phone, and she looks like she was on her way to join them.
"Something wrong?" she asks, eyeing the coat that Beckett has thrown over her arm, the heels that are back on the detective's feet. There's a cleverly concealed hint of anxiety to the teenager's voice.
"No, not wrong. I got a call from Beth – she's at the airport."
"At the airport…?"
Alexis gives her a confused look.
"JFK," Kate explains. "Her flight just landed."
Excitement bubbles up in the girl's eyes, and Kate quickly smooths down the tiny flicker of jealousy in her belly. She's gone down that path before; her and Beth's relationships with Alexis are two very different things, two things that have no business being compared.
She knows better than this. It's only the exhaustion in her bones speaking.
"I'll grab a coat," Castle's daughter exclaims, practically bouncing on her toes. Sometimes it's easy to see her father in her. "We're picking her up, right?" She asks over her shoulder before disappearing back into her room.
"Yes, we are," Kate smiles despite herself. "Your father insists on driving us."
She moves slowly towards Alexis's door, leans into the frame, watching as the girl hunts for her scarf and her gloves. The teenager gives her a wary look.
"Dad driving? Don't you remember what happened last time?"
Beckett chuckles, only because she knows that Rick is out of earshot.
"He looks pretty set on it, Alexis. Besides, it's not like he's a bad driver."
"No," the girl agrees, closing the door and linking arms with Kate, steering her towards the stairs. "He's not. As long as another squirrel doesn't land on the hood in front of him."
The dashboard clock says 9:26 when Castle pulls over in the Kiss and Fly parking – she half expects him to make a joke about the name, but he's too busy trying to see through the curtain of rain that surrounds them.
It started to rain two minutes after they left, of course, and none of them thought to take an umbrella.
"Well," Alexis says, looking outside with an adorably scrunched face.
"Ready to run?" Kate asks back, bracing herself, her fingers curling around the door handle.
"I'll just wait here, in case someone asks me to move the car," Rick pipes in, grinning and looking entirely too satisfied.
Beckett narrows her eyes at him, lets go of the door so she can lean in, capture his lips. He jerks in surprise, and by the time he rises to the occasion, his tongue coming out to play, Kate is already backing away, her teeth grazing his lower lip as she does.
"Sure, Castle," she says, rather proud of his slack jaw, his shocked look. "You wait here."
And then she opens the door and steps out under the rain, Alexis's laughter wrapped around her.
The car is as close to the terminal doors as Castle could get, but that still leaves a good fifty meters for Kate and Alexis to cover, and even running doesn't keep the girls from getting thoroughly drenched.
The automatic doors slide open and they rush inside, laughing in between panted breaths. Kate runs a hand through her wet hair, watches as the teenager wrings the water out of her braid. Affection flares inside her, unexpected but not unwelcome; she grabs Alexis's shoulder, tugs the girl into her in a vain attempt to warm them both.
Castle's daughter shoots her a surprised glance, smiles, and hooks an arm around Kate's waist.
"So, where did Beth say she'd meet us?"
"She said she'd be at the bar," Kate answers, a shiver crawling up her spine. The rain was not only heavy – it was pretty damn cold as well.
Alexis tightens her hold on her, and warmth spreads into Kate, tingles in her fingertips. The two of them start making their way through the crowd; the airport is incredibly busy, and they have to dodge a fat guy and his even fatter suitcase, a mom with her five little children in tow.
"There's probably more than one bar, though," Alexis points out as Kate starts looking around, trying to locate her sister.
"You're right," the detective answers, reaching for her cell phone. "I should just call her."
After a couple rings, though, Kate is kindly invited to leave a message, and she hangs up, vaguely worried. But no, the airport is loud and packed – it's likely Beth just didn't hear her phone.
"Kate?" Alexis calls from a few feet away. "I found a directory of the shops and restaurants."
The number of bars is in fact more modest than Kate would have expected: only four, and two of them are quite close to where they're standing right now. They head for the first one, Sam Adams Beer Cart; Beckett's fingers are twitching nervously around her cell phone.
No reason to be anxious, though: the moment they step inside the well-lit, spacious bar, a distinctive laugh cascades from a table on their left, and Kate's eager eyes quickly find her sister.
Beth is sitting with a good-looking man – dark blond hair, in his late twenties, expensive suit – who seems absolutely taken with her. Of course.
The detective cannot help a smile. Alexis is beaming at her side; Kate nudges her forward just when Beth turns, sensing their presence. It doesn't take more than that to send Castle's daughter running into the other woman's arms; their words are unintelligible to anyone but them, drowned under happy exclamations and joyful peals of laughter.
Beckett watches with a strange sense of peace, until her sister extends a hand towards her, invites her to join with those green, lively eyes of hers. She lets herself be sucked into a group hug, swamped with bright energy and tender touch, until she can hardly breathe.
"Katie, I'm so glad to see you," Beth is saying against her ear, and Kate is reminded again of how different they are, how her sister always voices the things that *she* would leave unsaid.
It takes her a few seconds to adjust.
"It's good to see you too, Beth," she answers when her voice is steady enough, won't crack.
Past her sister's shoulder, the blond man has averted his eyes, as if reluctant to intrude on their private moment. Kate disentangles herself from Beth, gives a light nod towards the guy.
"Oh," the young woman laughs, not even bothering to look embarrassed. "Sorry. Ted, this is my sister, Kate, and her… boyfriend's daughter, Alexis."
Kate shakes the man's hand, grateful that Beth remembered not to use Alexis's full name. And grateful that she refrained from using the playful 'StepCastle' nickname that Kate has heard rather frequently over the phone this past year.
"Well, we should get going, I guess," Beth says gaily, grabbing her purse and pulling out her suitcase's handle. "Ted, it was nice meeting you."
"You too," he replies hastily, his hand going to his coat pocket. Kate tenses out of habit, but she quickly realizes her mistake when he hands Beth a white rectangle of paper.
"Uh, here's my card, and my phone number, if you ever want to grab coffee or something, while you're in town."
The young woman takes it, flashes Ted a charming smile. "Thank you."
And then she's dragging Kate and Alexis outside, firing questions at Castle's daughter with her usual liveliness. But now that Beckett has gotten past the first shock, that first thrill of pleasure at seeing Beth again, she notices that her sister's laughter sounds a little forced at times, the shrill notes unusual. Unnatural.
She might chalk it up to the jetlag, and how tired Beth's got to be after a twenty-hour trip. Except – except she catches that smooth, discreet move of her sister's hand, crumpling the business card and throwing it into a trash can as they walk out of the terminal.
Kate observes a careful silence, but it doesn't keep her from speculating, forming an impression of her sister based on years of reading body language as a detective.
Something's wrong with Beth.

Finally 5 days ago a woman said yes to going on a date with me. My depression is gone. I knew her for a month and a half online. She said yes right away when I asked her about going out with me. I just said''Do you want to go on a date with me?'' Never been so happy in my life. We are going out this Tuesday coming up.
Isn't it amazing how I am no longer depressed since a woman said yes to going on a date with me 5 days ago?

It really depends how it is used for me.
I hate the word homophobic. 😒 I can't think of anything else rn. 😞😕

One word I am sick of hearing is girls misusing is the word "Creep". Just because a guy that is not hot says "Hi" to a girl does not make him "creepy" or a "creep". I have seen girls do this so they don't have to admit the real reason they don't want him is because he is not good looking. Now I KNOW that not all girls are like this. I am just talking about the girls that are.10|10|0
Oh I know people who are like that!

Posted 07/04/2013 at 9:59 AM
Posted 4 years ago
With the launch of video for Instagram last month, Vine's usage has seen a drop. Whether this is a temporary dip or not remains to be seen, but it certainly kicked Twitter into action and, as we covered last week, Vine for Kindle Fire was launched. Today, the bite-sized video service has made another move by updating its iOS app.
Looking to keep hold of, and build upon, its 13 million strong registered users, Vine has introduced several handy features that are certain to appeal to fans.
Arguably the biggest of these features is "revine," which lets you, well, revine your favorite videos. It is exactly the same as Twitter's Retweet option and lets you share videos that you like from your home feed or on the Explore page for friends to see.
Speaking of the Explore page, that has been updated too, with the introduction of 15 new channels including Music, Comedy, Arts and Experimental and Nature. Each new channel has its own funky theme and Popular Feed section, making it easier to find the 6-second clips you like and watch, and share them with followers. In addition to Explore, a new "On the rise" section can help you discover Vine's up-and-coming users and viral trends.
There is also plenty to enjoy on the camera front, with new things to like such as focus, a grid, and a clever "ghost" button, which lets you view a transparent overlay of your previous shot.
More important than the shiny new additions to the line-up, though, are the rollout of improved privacy controls. This is something that Instagram already offers and, now that the Facebook-owned app has video capabilities, Vine has been pretty much forced to offer something similar. Posts can now be protected, making them viewable only to approved people. Videos shared on Twitter and Facebook, however, can be viewed by anyone clicking the link.
Vine for iOS (version 1.3) is available to download now from iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/vine/id592447445

Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
I appreciate your quick response and thorough feedback. I have been seeing him on and off for some time, probably about 10 years, so if we ever discussed his preferences I've long since forgotten them. I suppose I found myself in panic over my actions because he is part of what I would consider a very structured outpatient clinic run by a medical center and he did not return my call. In any case, I have a feeling you are most likely correct. I am working through the night one moment at a time. :-)
Thank you.
Lauren Lamb

The quite atmosphere of this coastal village would be interesting for travellers.The fishermen set out for their daily catch in country boats in the wee hours of the day and reach the shore with daily catch by dusk. The beach becomes lively when the boats return with the day's catch. Tags: Nattikka beach, Thrissur, Picnic spot, Fishing, Travellers, Fishmen, Boating, India tourism, Video of nattika beach

Marred by bird attacks, sand traps made from cost-cutting quicksand, and texting-induced cart accidents, golf has surpassed lava surfing and equestrian water polo in annual sports injuries. Solidify your short game in a safe indoor environment with this Groupon.

Who attends Clute Conferences?
Our conferences are tailored to educational faculty and administrators looking to present their research on all aspects of business, as well as share proven, innovative methods in teaching and learning. Our conferences provide attendees with the opportunity to interact, share ideas, and create meaningful connections with scholars from around the world.
Why do you schedule multiple conferences together, in one place?
We schedule multiple conferences together to foster dialogue and exposure to educational leaders from all backgrounds, cultures and disciplines, all in once place. In doing so, attendees can attend sessions bridging topics to gain new incites and unique perspectives on teaching and learning. No matter which conference you register for you're invited to every session*, regardless of topic.
*Every session available at that location. Registrations do not extend for more than one conference location.
Are submitted conference papers reviewed?
Yes, all conference submissions are reviewed for acceptability, with the option of a more thorough double blind peer review. Please remember the double blind peer review can take up to 1 month to complete.
Do you have a dress code?
We do not have a dress code; what goes for classroom attire goes for our conferences. The important thing is to be comfortable.
How long do I have to present?
We allow approximately 20 minutes for each presentation.
What about airfare/travel accommodations?
All attendees are responsible for their own airfare and travel accommodations. Consult with your travel agent or search the Internet (priceline.com, cheaptickets.com, expedia.com, skyscanner.com etc.) for the lowest fare. We permit last-minute changes in your presentation schedule to accommodate your travel arrangements.
Do I need to pay the registration fee when registering for a conference?
We suggest all applicants wait to pay the registration fee until after receiving an acceptance letter. The acceptance letter will include information on how to pay the registration fee.
Should I register for the conference before booking my hotel room?
Yes, we strongly recommend that you register for the conference and wait until you have received a Letter of Acceptance before booking your hotel room.
I need a Letter of Invitation for my travel visa. What do I do?
Contact our office at email@example.com for a Letter of Invitation. Please wait until after you have been granted your travel visa before paying the registration fee or making airfare/hotel accommodations.
Do you offer Continuing Professional Education Credit?
Professionals seeking Continuing Professional Education Credit should contact the conference chair or indicate on the Registration Form that they must receive CPE credit for attending the conference. Necessary paperwork is required and will be available at the conference registration desk.
May I organize my own session?
Faculty may organize their own session, invite participants, and serve as the session chair. Please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com to make arrangements.
What if I miss a submission deadline?
If you missed a deadline, please email firstname.lastname@example.com or call The Clute Institute at 1-303-904-4750.
May I have only my abstract appear in the conference proceedings?
Authors often elect to publish only the abstract of their presentation in the conference proceedings. This effectively gives the author until the conference to complete the paper. This also means that the author is free to submit the paper to another journal without copyright consequences because the paper has never been published elsewhere since only the abstract was published in the proceedings. The Clute Institute does not copyright the proceedings, which means that authors are still free to do as they see fit with the paper. Consequently, authors can claim academic credit for a conference presentation, a refereed conference proceedings publication, and possibly a journal publication (from one of our journals or a different journal) from one piece of research.
May I republish my presentation?
Authors are free to publish their presentation elsewhere without permission from the Clute Institute because authors retain copyright ownership of their presentation. However, as a condition of participation in a Clute Institute conference, authors must give the Clute Institute permission to publish their presentations in hardcopy, online, or elsewhere and impose fees where necessary.
May I attend the conference without presenting?
Yes you can! All we need is a completed registration form for any of our conferences as well as the registration payment. Please indicate "non-presenting participant" on the registration form.
What video formats are supported for Virtual Presentations?
We support the following video formats for video presentations in our Virtual Sessions:
- QuickTime Movie (.mov)
- MPEG-4 (.mp4, .m4v)
- MPEG-2 (OS X Lion or later)
- AVCHD (OS X Mountain Lion or later)
- AVI (Motion JPEG only)
We kindly ask for all video submissions to be sent to us using a file hosting service such as DropBox.
What if I need to cancel?
A full refund will be given for cancellations received one week prior to the conference. The Clute Institute reserves the right to cancel a conference in the event of a natural disaster, terrorist act, strike, government regulation, act of God, or any other emergency making it illegal or impossible to hold the conference. In the event of a conference cancellation, The Clute Institute will only be responsible for returning the attendee's conference registration fees.
May I transfer conferences?
Yes. If you have already made the conference registration payment but can no longer attend, we can easily transfer the payment to another conference.
I have a large group I would like to bring to the conference. How do I sign them up?
Great! We would be happy to accommodate a large group. Please contact our office directly for more information.
What is Open Access publishing?
Open access publishing simply means providing immediate open access to our journals on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, remix, tweak, build upon, print, search, or link the full text of the articles in this journal provided that appropriate credit is given. As a condition of publication, the authors must grant the Clute Institute the right to disseminate their manuscript to the widest possible readership in print and electronic format.
What are the advantages to publishing in an Open Access Journal?
Hard copy only journals, as opposed to open access, are not free since college libraries must pay subscription fees for these journals. Universities pay large amounts of money to have hard copy only journals available for their students and faculty. Open access journals are good for all researchers because they are freely available on the Internet and especially good for researchers in less developed countries where institutions do not have money to pay for hard copy academic journals. Open access is good for authors too because their articles will be cited more if freely available on the Internet as opposed to a hard copy only journal where readership is restricted.
What does the journal manuscript review process look like?
After receiving your manuscript, we send it to the appropriate editor. Upon receiving it, the editor removes all author(s) personal contact information. The editor then verifies the manuscript's suitability for the journal in which they serve. Manuscripts deemed unsuited will be rejected. If the editor finds the manuscript suitable for the journal, it is sent to two independent reviewers for their comments. Based on the comments from the double-blind peer review, the editor will make a final decision to either accept or reject the manuscript.
If your manuscript is accepted, congratulations! One of our staff members will email you with an official letter or acceptance. From there, an open access fee will be imposed. Finally, if we find edits that need to be corrected, we will work with you to apply the finishing touches.
The Clute Institute, its editors, and members of all editorial teams are committed to objective and fair double-blind peer reviews of submitted manuscripts for journal publication and will evaluate manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy.
For more information about our Code of Publication Ethics click here, and for the rest of our journal policies, please click here.
For more information about our article submission process click here.
Are open access fees mandatory for publication in a Clute Journal?
Yes, our open access fees are mandatory for every publication.
Subscription based journals, as opposed to open access, are not free since college libraries must pay subscription fees for these journals. Universities pay large amounts of money to have hard copy only journals available for their students and faculty. Open access publishers are different in that they cannot rely on subscription fees to cover the cost of hosting published work permanently online free to all readers or the cost of processing and monitoring submitted journal manuscripts within their office.
Have Clute journals been removed from Cabell's Directories?
Yes, our journals have been temporally removed from view on Cabell's website, pending reevaluation. We will be able to resubmit our journals in Cabell's come early 2019.
My Institution is requesting reviewer reports, can you send them to me?
Yes, please contact our office directly for more information.
Do you provide download statistics for published manuscripts?
Of course! Download statistics can be found on each of our journal's main pages, under the "Download Rates" tab found on the left. Download data is listed on a per journal and per article basis, and is updated quarterly.

Lapping It Up
Sunday, July 25, 2004
How do the hungry drivers of NASCAR fuel up? With Ragu Rich and Meaty spaghetti sauce.
I snap off the TV. I flip past the magazine ads screaming about speed and about the men in helmets who achieve it.
I am sure that America's top drivers burn calories thundering around tracks in sponsored stock cars. And, yep, I understand that NASCAR is hot. What used to be the sport of greasers is now more popular than basketball or baseball.
Thanks to its missile quickness, its danger and its constant action (no "game delays" here), NASCAR has become the country's leading spectator sport, according to car-racing groups, with an estimated 75 million fans.
But as a guy who goes at a turtle's pace in sports, trying to catch up with lazy softballs and footballs, I want to know more.
What's it feel like to have splinters of a second to nudge a wheel or jam down on a brake? Does it have to do with strength, like wrestling or boxing, or is it mostly reflex, like playing Olympic ping-pong?
In short, how do you wrestle a stock car? Are you physically wiped out? How hungry do you get?
It is my wife's car-buff secretary, Renata, who lets me know there is a way to find out.
"The Richard Petty Driving Experience," she says. "Named after the champion driver. For 379 bucks, they'll let you race on actual pro tracks . . . They will time you."
I do not like the idea. My 1988 Chevy Nova can go fast, but it is not good on curves. Or maybe it's me. I can't be sure.
Renata is waiting for my answer. So is my wife, who has been listening and who loves cars, too.
"I don't know," I reply, hoping someone will say it's unsafe and talk me out of it.

ID World Emirates Event Draws Leaders in Auto-ID and Security
ID World
: 24 May, 2010
(New Product)
The annual EMEA automatic identification summit was held as part of the ID World event recently held in Abu Dhabi
Wise Media's annual EMEA summit on automatic identification and wireless technologies, ID WORLD Abu Dhabi 2010, opened its doors in the UAE on May 3, under the patronage of UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, H H Sheik Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
Over the two days, ID WORLD Abu Dhabi, its forums and special initiatives saw attendees convene to share their knowledge and contribute to the 7 working groups of the regional thought leadership symposium from more than 35 countries. ID WORLD Abu Dhabi hosted the Citizen ID Forum, the Transportation Security Forum and the Asset Tracking Forum that, in the last four years, took place as separate events in Berlin, Rome, Vienna, Istanbul, Milan, Amsterdam, Paris and twice in Abu Dhabi. The event had both a global and regional focus on automatic identification and wireless technologies with a concentrated conference program of plenary sessions, breakout seminars and workshops, as well as a two-day exhibition.
Also at the event, Wise Media¹s newest initiative, Postal Innovation, was launched to resounding success with a two-day conference attended by major postal operators and innovators from around the region. In addition, the
Academy Conference, returned to the region ¬ as part of the event - after its high profile launch in Abu Dhabi in February 2009.
High ranking and influential speakers from around the region included Dr Ali Al Khouri, Acting General Director of the Emirates Identity Authority, the Hon. Suvi Lindén, Finnish Minister of Communications, Dr Mohammad Benten, President and CEO of Saudi Post and Prince Uche Secondus, Board Chairman of the Nigerian National Identity Management Commission (NIMC). In addition, ID WORLD Abu Dhabi conference welcomed high profile delegations from the EU, America, France, Finland, Germany, India, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Tunisia, the Ukraine and the United Arab Emirates, to mention only some.
Discussion over the two days ranged from government driven ID schemes, securing trade and travel and the provision of citizen centric services to the world of contactless technologies for transport and new innovations in asset tracking. Special focus was given to the growth of autoID and wireless solutions in both the postal and healthcare market sectors.
The Postal Innovation conference drew loud acclaim from all protagonists, while the newly launched Healthcare@IDWORLD Working Group established itself as a strong new core of leading experts contributing to a forum to take forward as a growing initiative.
For the home market, ID WORLD Abu Dhabi was positioned as a truly regional initiative committed to furthering industry growth in the Middle East by involving local and regional players in government and transportation security, postal and shipping services as well as advanced smart technologies in the banking and telecommunications sectors.
With the record numbers and outstanding satisfaction expressed by participants, the first of Wise Media's annual regional events sets a new benchmark in ID WORLD Summits. The valuable discussions that took place in Abu Dhabi will continue at ID WORLD International Congress, the ninth annual world summit on automatic identification, in Milan on November 16-18, 2010.
ID WORLD Abu Dhabi 2010 was endorsed by the European Commission, the Emirates Identity Authority (EIDA) and Abu Dhabi Police. The event was sponsored by Sagem Sécurité, Morphotrak, Saudi Post, Datalogic Scanning and Cassis International.

Since its inception in 1959, the mission of Technometrics has been to contribute to the development and use of statistical methods in the physical, chemical, and engineering sciences.
The purpose of Technometrics is to contribute to the development and use of statistical methods in physical, chemical, and engineering sciences as well as information sciences and technology. This vision includes developments on the interface of statistics and computer science such as data mining, machine learning, large databases, and so on. The journal places a premium on clear communication among statisticians and practitioners of these sciences and an emphasis on the application of statistical concepts and methods to problems that occur in these fields. The journal will publish papers describing new statistical techniques, papers illustrating innovative application of known statistical methods, expository papers on particular statistical methods, and papers dealing with the philosophy and problems of applying statistical methods, when such papers are consistent with the journal's objective. Every article shall include adequate justification of the application of the technique, preferably by means of an actual application to a problem in the physical, chemical, engineering or information sciences. All papers must contain a short, clear summary of contents and conclusions. Mathematical derivations not essential to the flow of the text should be placed in an appendix or a supplementary file. Brief descriptions of problems requiring solution and short technical notes that clearly pertain to the journal's purpose will also be considered for publication. Concise letters to the editor will be published when they are considered timely and appropriate.
Technometrics is indexed in:

When Karen Shinto and I arrived in Hanoi, it was close to noon. After the hour or so ride to our hotel in the Old Quarter, we were famished for lunch. By the time we got into our room it was around 1:30pm. I was somewhat skeptical about finding a good lunch because people take early lunches in Vietnam and it's easy to get lost in the Old Quarter. The streets are crowded, laid out like a maze, and their names change every few blocks. I had visions of us getting lost and being hangry.
Karen had been to Hanoi before, right before she styled my first cookbook, Into the Vietnamese Kitchen. She hadn't been back since 2005 and was eager to go with me. This was my third time to Hanoi. Saigon is more familiar to me but somehow, perhaps because my parents are both northerners and raised us on their northern Viet palate, I relish the Hanoi food. It's often rustic and pure, not overly fussed up with ingredients. Delicate and balanced. I was eager, excited and willing.
So Karen and I headed out into the Old Quarter in search of a late lunch. I was looking for a pho joint but the one I wanted to try was closed. We wandered around the corner and I began to worry. It was close to 2pm and who the heck would be eating or serving lunch?

I personally find it admirable of women who can be independent and intelligent. I mean - there are extremes - really intelligent people can be intimidating but aren't really dependent girls annoying. I don't get it when guys want a more dependent girl though - I know my ex wanted me to be more dependent - but when I leaned of him for a bit of emotional support he had a go at me for doing so - saying I could usually handle it myself so why not this time. MAKE UP YOUR MIND.
Most Helpful Girl
Intelligence, like looks, are relative. I have dated both stupid and intelligent men. The "smartest" guy I ever met was a astrophysicist. Book wise, I've never met anyone smarter, but he was COMPLETELY retarded when it came to love and interacting with people. He would try to give a scientific reason as to why I was upset everytime. It got old, quick. Dumb guys well... they can be a lot of fun actually, but as I learned, there is a thin line between stupidity and bravery. That didn't really answer your question huh. Oh well...00|00|0

Lord Jesus Christ,
you are the visible face of the invisible Father,
of the God who manifests his power above all
by forgiveness and mercy:
let the Church in Vermont
be your visible face in our community,
its Lord risen and glorified.
Send your Spirit to consecrate every one of us
with divine anointing, so that the
Jubilee of Mercy may be a year of grace
from the Lord. May your Church bring
good news to the poor,
faith where it is weak or lacking,
life and hope where there is death and despair,
forgiveness and reconciliation in all endeavors,
and the proclamation of the Good News
of salvation to all.
We ask this of you, Lord Jesus,
through the intercession of Mary,
Mother of Mercy;
you who live and reign with the Father
and the Holy Spirit for ever and ever. Amen

Great Tips When It Comes To Homeschooling
Without a decent education, it is difficult to succeed in life. Educated individuals are often times offered more opportunities than those who did poorly in school. But how do you make sure your children are taught well? Homeschooling can be a great option for those who do not favor the traditional education system. Here is some great advice that could help you homeschool your kids.
Make sure you check you state laws in regard to homeschooling. Many states regulate how many hours of classroom work a child must have. Sometimes, you will have to establish your own curriculum. You also might see an advantage to organizing your home school in the same way that district schools are organized, particularly when it comes to the calendar year.
Homeschooling when you have a baby is exceptionally hard. You need to set up specific times to address each child's needs. You should find things you can all do together. While it is important to connect with both your student and your youngest child, you must be able to do so without compromising your ability to teach in the home.
When working with children, remember that breaks are very important. Hours of learning will not keep their level of excitement to the point where they want to learn. Give them the chance to go outside or just sit and do nothing. It will ultimately be good for everyone involved.
Be creative and experiment with new methods. Teaching resources can be very expensive to purchase, so you can save a lot of money by creating your own resources. You can make DIY flash cards by laminating simple index cards. Have your kids help you do this for added fun.
Before making the decision to homeschool, educate yourself. It can feel overwhelming to deal with everything all at once as a teacher. Classes and seminars offer some hands-on inspiration and guidance for almost everything involved with homeschooling. If you are already involved in a homeschooling program, it may be beneficial for you to attend an event as part of your continued education.
Designate housework to the kids or hire outside help. You might find it a struggle to teach your children all day while also taking care of the house. Trying to maintain a household while teaching is often impossible. Delegate some duties to your children and even partner up with friends to trade off tasks.
Make a list of positives and negatives about homeschooling and one for public school. Go back to this list and create lesson plans that address the cons you came up with and focus on the advantages of the method you chose. It's a checklist of what to do and what not to do. Study this list and make sure that it is on hand at all times.
Your child needs an excellent education to be successful in the modern world. A proper education gives them the knowledge and skills that are the foundation for learning ever more advanced skills. One successful route for imparting that knowledge and those skills is to homeschool your children. The tips above constitute a sensible guide, so use them and expand your child's mind.
