A/N: I know that this chapter has taken forever, almost literally, and for that I grovel at your feet. All excuses sound lame and unconvincing, especially to me, so I will just say a HUGE sorry to anyone who's been waiting for this update. This chapter is dedicated to popping corn, without whose chapter five review this chapter would have taken even longer, if such things are possible. I hope you like what I've done with it. Cinnamon.
Disclaimer: But naturally I own Harry Potter. However could you doubt it?...You called me a lying what!?
As the year progressed, Ron found that his days were dividing themselves more and more into two categories; days when he understood his year mates and days when he didn't.
On the first kind of day he enjoyed their company immensely, getting great pleasure out of ignoring Hermione, laughing at fart jokes and starting improbable rumours about Professor Sprout's nocturnal activities. On days like this he sometimes found himself wondering how on earth he could already know something, and feeling quite stunned when he remembered.
On the second kind of day their immaturity alienated him, and he felt excluded by the ease with which they could understand each other. Half of what they were saying might as well have been a different language for all the sense that he could make of it. It was days like this when he increasingly found himself seeking out Hermione, or occasionally Padma, when Hermione herself became too wrapped up in events which held little to no interest for him. For some reason that never seemed to happen with Padma; he speculated vaguely that it might have been something to do with being a Ravenclaw.
Hallowe'en was already bidding fair to become the second sort of day.
The day had started out pleasantly enough. Ron awoke to complete silence, the delicious smell of baking pumpkin wafting through the school, and the knowledge that he didn't have to get up for another hour. Turning onto his other side he snuggled down under his covers again, his eyes drifting closed. Life didn't get much better than this.
Twenty minutes later it went downhill dramatically, as he woke up once again, this time to the feeling of something heavy landing on his head, and the yells and grunts of his dorm mates as they battled it out with pillows, bed covers, textbooks and anything else that came to hand.
Seven years earlier, or even five, he would have happily joined in; yesterday he would have joined in, if it came to that. Today, he just wasn't in the mood.
Grabbing a set of clothing he headed for the bathroom, leaving the rest of his belongings to fend for themselves. It was too early in the morning to deal with this.
Forget early, Ron thought with annoyance, ducking as a sausage sailed over him, hitting Terry Boot at the Ravenclaw table behind him in the back of the head. I don't want to deal with this at any time of day.
Ron stood up somewhat cautiously, fully prepared to duck again if the situation required, glancing around for somewhere out of the line of fire to finish his meal. He came to the timely realisation that he had yet to make any progress on one of his resolutions.
Percy glanced up in some surprise as Ron slid into the seat next to him, but apparently decided not to comment on his uncharacteristic escape from the food fight. Of course, it probably wasn't quite as out of character as it would once have been.
"Good morning, Ron."
"Morning, Percy."
Ron realised with mild distress that he didn't even know his brother well enough to be able to differentiate between an awkward silence due to not having properly spoken for—well, a while—and it simply being too early in the morning for a conversation. As the silence lengthened he shifted uncomfortably, and decided that it was probably the former.
"So," he said at last, "what subject have you got first?"
The day did not improve as it went on, although Ron did feel that he might have made some progress with Percy.
History of Magic was, if possible, even more boring and painful than usual; Hermione had just re-discovered one of the less orthodox uses of the quill, namely that of jabbing Ron at regular intervals in order to keep him awake and appearing to pay attention.
Charms was full of embarrassing reminders of his past immaturity, as Flitwick attempted to teach them to make feathers fly. Ron spent the lesson painstakingly avoiding saying anything which Hermione could possibly find in any way upsetting. Rescuing her from a mountain troll was one bonding experience that Ron would be more than happy to forego, especially without Harry there to jump on its back and create a distraction—which had been a remarkably stupid and reckless move, even for Harry, now that Ron thought about it.
In front of them, Dean and Seamus had had the amusing idea to tickle the back of Lavender's neck with their feather whenever she wasn't looking, and her shrieks, giggles and accusations were giving Ron a headache. Then too, his efforts at tact had worried Hermione so much that she had enquired after his health no fewer than five times, and offered to accompany him to the hospital wing twice.
On top of everything else, Charms was followed by Transfiguration, in which McGonagall—still convinced that Ron was some kind of child prodigy when it came to Transfiguration—spent a great of time hovering over him and offering advice, most of which he had already heard before. Ron had to be very careful not to say or do anything that she might find suspicious, as he was certain that one mistake would be all it would take for her to discover everything, or—worse still—go to Dumbledore with her suspicions.
On top of all the rest it was a Thursday, the day of their weekly library study group. This was made worse by the presence of both Lavender and Parvati, who giggled incessantly and claimed most of Hermione's attention. Ordinarily Padma would have provided him with someone to talk to, but she had taken the opportunity afforded by Cho's absence to corner Harry.
Ron had never been entirely sure what her fascination with Harry was. He had never noticed them exchanging anything more than polite hellos last time, but now she made excuses to spend time with him, to ask his opinion on things, to lend him books and offer advice...and she was always watching him, as though waiting for him to give some sort of sign. What that sign might be was a mystery to Ron, but whatever it was, it hadn't been given. As time passed, Padma looked increasingly puzzled and frustrated, while Harry usually just looked confused.
By the time study group was over Ron wanted nothing more than to return to his dormitory and sleep, but Hermione would have none of it. Unbothered by Ron's insensitive comments, she had apparently decided that witnessing Hallowe'en from a wizarding perspective rather than a muggle one would be a fascinating learning experience, and that it was necessary to have Ron beside her to explain any little detail that she might not fully understand. He tried pointing out that given the amount of research she had done she probably knew more about most wizarding traditions than he did, but she was adamant, and he was still hindered by his determination not to upset her in any way.
The Hallowe'en Feast went much as the rest of the day had. By the time that Quirrell dashed into the Great Hall to "warn" Dumbledore about the troll, Ron was desperate enough to welcome even that diversion.
"Troll—in the dungeons—thought you ought to know."
Ron, watching critically, thought that the fainting was a slightly melodramatic touch, but like last time it all served its purpose. The Great Hall dissolved into total chaos. Dumbledore's spectacular golden firecrackers (Wait a minute. Shouldn't they have been purple? Ron wondered.) shocked everyone into temporary silence.
"Prefects, lead your Houses back to the dormitories immediately!"
Last time, Ron had been slightly disgusted by Percy's immediate assumption of control, but this time he recognised it for the sensible and responsible reaction that it was.
"Follow me! Stick together, first years! No need to fear the troll if you follow my orders!"—Okay, so that had been taking it a little too far, but he meant well—"Stay close behind me, now. Make way, first years coming through! Excuse me, I'm a prefect!"
Ron glanced around automatically, checking on Harry and Hermione as he always had in situations like these. To Ron's immense relief, Hermione stood right beside him, but he felt an instant of panic when he was unable to locate Harry. Then he remembered the year's changes, and he searched for him across the Hall. The Slytherin table was in even worse chaos than the others were, and they had made no move to leave the Great Hall. Ron felt his face forming a sneer of disdain for their cowardice before he recalled that the Slytherin common room was located in the dungeons, the same place that Quirrell had reported the troll to be.
Looking more closely, he saw that what he had taken as a disorganised rabble was actually a large protective circle formed by all of Slytherin House except the prefects, who appeared to be trying to pin down a teacher for alternative directions. The older students, mostly sixth and seventh years, and a few fifth, formed the outer layer of the "circle", while the first years were at the centre, followed by the second years.
Once again Ron realised just how badly he had misjudged Slytherin House as a whole; they might behave horribly to the rest of the school, but it appeared that they looked after their own. Ron felt both amusement and gratitude when he realised that Harry, looking both intensely curious and quite annoyed, had been herded to the centre of the circle, along with a terrified-looking Draco Malfoy.
After that night in Godric's Hollow, when Harry had lost his parents, there had been an amazing range of contradictory rumours and theories floating about. Ron hadn't been much older than Harry at the time, so he didn't remember them all, if he had even heard them all. The only ones he remembered were the ones that persisted. These fell into three main categories.
The first was the rumour that Harry was some kind of saviour, born to rid the wizarding world of teh scourge that was the Dark Lord Voldemort. This was the theory that was most widely accepted and which grew in popularity after Harry arrived at Hogwarts, and defied Voldemort again and again and again.
The second theory was the one that Harry had always seemed to subscribe to, that he had simply been incredibly lucky—or unlucky, as the case might be. This theory stated that harry's survival was a fluke, and that his continued survival was also a fluke. Voldemort had tried very hard to peddle this version of events to his Death Eaters, with mixed results.
The third theory, though...Some said that it took incredible power, and dark power at that. Harry hadn't been much more than one year old the night he defeated Voldemort for the first time. This power was surely the reason that Voldemort had tried to kill the defenceless child in the first place. If his power was so immensely huge at the age of fifteen months, what feats could he achieve once his magic was fully trained and developed? What horrors might he wreak upon the world if he sought out power and followers? The wizarding world shuddered, and turned with relief to the first theory.
There were some, though, who would have welcomed such a possibility. Many Death Eaters felt that Harry Potter might be a new leader, a new figurehead for destruction. The Dark Lord's inner circle in particular had seen such a young and, presumably, malleable child as a great improvement over Lord Voldemort with his insanity, his erratic and violent temper, and his apparent conviction that regular torture was the only way to keep his followers loyal.
These hopes must have faded with Harry's Sorting into Gryffindor, and subsequent second defeat of Voldemort at the end of second year, along with his obvious distaste for all things Slytherin. Lucius Malfoy, rumoured to be one of those most in favour of the rise of the Dark Lord Potter—with himself as his most trusted and rewarded servant, naturally—must have been extremely disappointed with whatever disgusted reports of Harry's attitude were passed on to him by his son Draco.
Now, though, Harry was a Slytherin, and it seemed that Draco Malfoy was not the only Slytherin whose parents had given him orders to befriend Harry—and, apparently, protect him at all costs.
This was a good thing, Ron tried to convince himself. It meant that Harry would have less difficulty swaying Slytherins to the light side when Voldemort returned. The Harry that Ron had known would never allow himself to be swayed by the lure of power. There was no reason to think that this new version of Harry would either.
Shaking off a feeling of trepidation, Ron turned away from the Slytherins to catch up to the rest of the Gryffindor first years. For the moment, Harry seemed to be in safe hands, even if they were not the protectors that he would have chosen for his friend. For now, that would have to be enough.
A/N: I know I don't deserve reviews after such a long wait, but please? I am just recovering from writer's block, and I need all the encouragement I can get. *looks hopeful* Again, I am beyond sorry for how long this chapter took. Cinnamon.

When people think of loss, grief and mourning, they usually think of it in the context of someone dying.
Although this is often the case, it is also common to experience the stages of grief and loss after other circumstances – such as losing a relationship, beloved pet, or a job.
Grief and mourning can be defined as a normal response to the loss of something – or someone – significant to you.
Symptoms of Grief
Some people are able to return to their usual level of functioning very quickly after experiencing a loss, whereas others may take a long time. There is no 'normal' timeframe, and no 'normal' way to grieve, as individual responses may vary.
Symptoms of grief and mourning may include:
- Intense sadness;
- Loss of meaning in life;
- Insomnia;
- Reduced appetite, weight loss;
- Feeling numb or detached;
- Anxiety, anger, guilt;
- Mood swings, frequent crying.
The 5 Stages of Grief and Mourning
You may have heard of the 'five stages of grief,' as they have been featured amongst popular culture movies and TV shows.
It is true that some people move through different stages of grief, following a loss or bereavement; however, individual responses to grief vary, and where some people may move through the five stages in order, others will go back and forth, or even skip stages entirely.
Stage 1 – Denial: It might take time to process the reality of the loss, which is a defence mechanism as it helps us to cope better as it slowly sinks in. Typical responses include disbelief and denial ("I can't believe it", "this isn't happening"), to feeling numb or acting hysterical.
Stage 2 – Anger: Intense emotions such as anger and blame may set in, and in some cases the person may take this out on others, including doctors, strangers, or even the deceased ("this is all your fault!", or "how could you leave me?").
Stage 3 – Bargaining: The person may say things like, "If only I did something sooner"; or they may make deals with God in an attempt to feel in control of the situation ("if you bring her back I'll never do anything wrong again").
Stage 4 – Depression: In this phase, the reality of the loss sets in and the person in grief and mourning feels a deep sense of sadness or despair.
Stage 5 – Acceptance: In the final stage, the person begins to rebuild their life around new values and meaning. They return to their previous levels of functioning, and can remember happier times without feeling overwhelmed.
How to Move on Following a Loss
- Accept the loss. This allows the healing process to begin.
- Allow yourself to grieve. As hard as this can be, we need to feel the pain in order to move through it. Let yourself cry as it can help to release painful emotions.
- Spend time with people who care about you and talk about the loss. Talk about your feelings and memories. This will help you to process your emotions and come to terms with what has happened.
- Give yourself time. Grief and mourning can be a long process, don't expect to rush through it. In the meantime, make sure you exercise, get plenty of rest and eat well. Just take things one step at a time.
- After coming to terms with a loss, it is important to reconnect with the things that once gave your life joy and meaning. Build your life up and create new experiences.
- Honour your loss through a special ceremony. Lighting a candle in memorial, writing a letter of goodbye or releasing a helium balloon into the sky are all examples. This may be helpful when experiencing anniversaries or times in which you expect memories and emotions to resurface.
But what if you feel trapped in grief and mourning, and like you are not moving on?
Complicated Grief
It's true, some people may become stuck in the grieving process, or may skip it entirely, and refuse to deal with the loss at all. This can mean that the grief isn't dealt with and may become more difficult or take longer to resolve.
In these cases, symptoms such as intense sadness or yearning for the loss can persist for years, greatly impairing the person's daily functioning and life. This is known as 'complicated grief', and may indicate that it's time to see a professional to help you work through your emotions.
If you are having trouble moving on from grief, or if your grief is impairing your ability to function in your daily life (relationships, work, self-care), then it may be helpful to get support or professional help.

The International Monetary Fund on Tuesday cut its global economic growth forecasts to 3.3 per cent for this year and 3.8 per cent for next year, warning of weaker growth in core eurozone countries, Japan and big emerging markets such as Brazil.
The IMF also warned the risk of equity losses in 2014 had risen and stock valuations might be "frothy". Adding to investor worries, German industrial output in August fell at its steepest rate since the height of the global financial crisis, in another sign the eurozone's largest economy might be in recession.
After a fall on Wall Street in reaction to the IMF report and German growth worries, the local sharemarket started the day down as far as 1.4 per cent. The big banks lifted the market off the day's low, as they found some buyers, but were unable to finish in the black.
Commonwealth Bank fell 1 per cent to $75.02, while NAB fell 0.7 per cent to $32.15. ANZ fell 0.7 per cent to $31.30, while Westpac fell 0.4 per cent lower to $32.28.
"The markets are caught up in a global growth scare now, emanating out of Europe and the data from there over the past few days following on from the disappointment with the European Central Bank," Morgan Stanley strategist Malcolm Wood said.
"We think if you step back from that for just a moment ... the US data is actually quite healthy and that a strong US dollar will help Europe and Japan in trying to balance some global growth."
The US will begin its reporting season overnight on Thursday, with Alcoa.
Mr Wood said there were expectations that company accounts would generally be positive and follow the recent spate of economic data.
"Expectations are for a rise of 4 per cent year-on-year. In the past few quarters, the outcomes have been significantly stronger than the number going into the quarter, and we would expect something like that to happen again," Mr Wood said.
The Australian market has fallen 7.4 per cent since its 2014 high in early September as yield stocks, mainly financials, have suffered.
Despite the fall on Thursday, UBS strategist David Cassidy said the market looked oversold and he could now see better value.
"There is no sign of any broad-based deterioration in the earnings backdrop that would help explain the market's underperformance," Mr Cassidy said.
"The August result season was solid and a 6 per cent [year-to-date] Australian dollar pullback helps the outlook for earnings."
In company news, BC Iron has now picked up more than 90 per cent of Kerry Stokes' Iron Ore Holdings, giving it the right to compulsorily acquire any remaining shares.

A group of leading authors, educationalists and child-development experts is calling on the government to introduce national guidelines on the use of screens, amid concern about the impact on children's physical and mental health.
It is one of a series of measures outlined in a letter to the Guardian, highlighting what it describes as the increasingly "toxic" nature of childhood, and signed by 40 senior figures, including the author Philip Pullman, the former archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, the psychotherapist Susie Orbach and the childcare expert Penelope Leach.
The letter urges the government to create a cabinet-level minister for children, with specific responsibility for auditing all government policies in order to assess their impact on children's health and wellbeing.

When these children become adults they will be likely to be more prone to illness and have a unrealistic view of life. I wonder also about their anxiety levels due to being fed so much negative info from media and games not to mention the impact of being around electronic equipment constantly.

The animals really respect Boxer, he is very liked and does lots of work for the farm, this shows when he gets hurt from doing so much work. When he got sent to the knackers, the animals weren't the same after he was gone, they tried as hard as they could to save him, because they didn't want to be without him. This is an example of testimonial propaganda, all the animals on the farm know Boxer well, and they all really respect him.

Weighted average square footage in the second quarter was 2.52 million square feet, an increase of 12.5 percent compared with weighted average square footage of 2.24 million in last year's second quarter. The addition of four new stores and two relocated stores in the first half of 2005 helped to drive the increase in net sales.
First-half 2005 net sales were $562.7 million, a 9.2 percent increase compared with $515.5 million in the same period last year.
"We are very pleased with the continued strengthening of our sales momentum throughout the first half of the year," said Perry D. Odak, president and c.e.o. of Wild Oats. "Now that we're into the third quarter and the lapping of the Southern California grocery strike is behind us, we expect our comparable-store sales to be solid throughout the remainder of the year. Additionally, our Wild Oats branded products rollout continues to exceed our expectations and is producing very strong sales, which is also contributing to our gross-margin improvement."
Comparable-store sales for the second quarter are 5.4 percent -- stronger than the retailer expected, especially in comparison with last year's 1.5 percent second-quarter comps.
Excluding the company's Southern California stores, "which continued to lap difficult strike-related comparisons through the end of the second quarter," comparable-store sales were 7.9 percent compared with 0.1 percent.
As a result of year-to-date sales performance, the retailer expects comps for the full year to be at the high end of its previously stated range of 3 percent to 4 percent.
Thanks to strong sales, a sequential increase in gross margins, and a higher store contribution, net income was $0.9 million for the second quarter, or three cents per share, compared to a net loss of $0.3 million, or one cent per share last year.
For the first half, however, Wild Oats is still in the red, with a net loss of 2005 at $0.2 million, or one cent per share, compared with net income of $1.7 million, or six cents per share, for 2004. Due to the improvement in the second quarter, the company has increased guidance for its full-year 2005 earnings per share to be in the two-cent to four-cent range, an increase from its previous range of break-even to three cents.
During the second quarter, Wild Oats opened a new Henry's store in Temecula, Calif. and relocated a Wild Oats store in the Portland, Ore. market. To date, these two new store openings have produced the strongest grand opening results in both the Henry's and Wild Oats chains. Wild Oats Markets plans to open an additional three new Henry's stores throughout the remainder of the year, bringing the total number of new stores opened in 2005 to nine. Currently Wild Oats has 17 leases or letters of intent signed for new stores opening in the remainder of this year, in 2006 and 2007.
The retailer also completed the major remodeling of two San Diego Henry's stores in July and expects to complete major remodels of five additional stores by the end of the year.
Wild Oats Markets is also pursuing additional retail opportunities to offer its Wild Oats branded products in other retail environments. In the second quarter, Wild Oats opened the first of its five-store test of a branded Holistic Health boutique in the Plymouth, Mass. Stop & Shop store. The second Wild Oats Stop & Shop department will open in the third quarter in Fairfield, Conn.
Wild Oats has also added Dan Bolstad to its management team as s.v.p. of operations. Bolstad brings to the company more than 25 years of operations and management experience in the food retail industry. Most recently he was s.v.p. of operations for ShopKo Stores in Green Bay, Wis., a 140-store chain of multidepartment retail stores. Bolstad spent most of his career at Fred Meyer Stores, a grocery and general merchandise retailer in the Pacific Northwest, where he served as s.v.p. of operations from 2001 to 2003.

Why is it so Great?
On its face, the program doesn't look like anything special. You show your Optimum card when making a purchase at Shoppers, and you'll earn points at a rate of 10 points per $1. You'll need to build up at least 8000 points to make a redemption and would get $10 at that level. The redemption levels look like this (usually, more on that later):
Now, having to spend $800 just to get $10 back does not exactly sound very generous, but the big advantage of the program are the constant offers they have available to boost those earning amounts. I don't even bother shopping at Shoppers Drug Mart unless there's an extra point offer available because their regular prices tend to be a bit higher than I can find elsewhere. Just as an example of the type of offers available, right now I have 10,000 bonus points if I spend $60, 1000 bonus points if a buy a Tresemme product or 800 bonus points if I buy eggs. If I spent exactly $60 (before tax) and used all three offers, I would get 11,800 bonus points plus my regular 600 points. That would give me enough points for $10 of free stuff and points leftover. Oh, the wonder of it!
Sure, it's a bit of work to figure out what are the best days to shop and the best offers to use but it's worth it. Try to save up your purchases and do a bigger shop on the days that will give you the biggest bang for your buck. It also pays to take a look at the flyer for the week to see what products are on sale or may have bonus points available. I don't actually shop at Shoppers a lot, but usually once a month I'll plan a trip and stock up on the essentials for the next while. The best offer days to hit up are when they have 10x your points when you spend $50 or more or when you can get 18,500 points on a purchase of $75 or more (that one is happening this weekend, October 29-31). Make sure you also download the app because you'll get offers specific to you and your purchase history.
The Big Redeem
The best part is the day you get to redeem your points for free stuff, but there's also a few tricks to make sure you get the most bang for your points. You can tell just by looking at the table above that it makes sense to hold onto your points until you reach the 95,000 level. The lowest level gives you a return of only 800 points per dollar whereas the highest level will bring that return up to 558 points per dollar. An even better reason to stock up your points is that once in awhile there will be a 'Spend Your Points' event and your points will be worth even more. There's no guarantees on the actual amount, but the last couple have bumped up the 95,000 level to $200 (extra $30) worth of free stuff, and the 50,000 level went up to $100 (extra $15) of free stuff. Now we're talking!
Let's look at a quick example. If you only shop on the 10x your points days and only do the maximum redemption on a 'Spend Your Points' day, you would need to spend $950 to get $200 back. That's a pretty good perk if you're buying things you would have to buy anyways!
Beauty Boutique
I've talked about my Sephora addiction before, and that doesn't seem to be decreasing at any point soon, but Shoppers also offers a high-end beauty product boutique so you can earn Optimum points at the same time. They offer a lot of the same brands you'll find at Sephora (think Clinique, Stila, Benefit, Dior, etc.) and also have free shipping over $50 and free returns. Keep your eyes open for special points offers on products you already use and sign up for their email list for even more promotions.
So Long Credit Card
Some of you who are already Optimum point pros might be thinking, hey, what about the RBC Shoppers Optimum Mastercard and debit card? Well, both options have been halted, and no new applications are being taken. At this point, existing customers are still able to use their cards and earn extra points, but I wouldn't be surprised if you find yourself searching for a new card at some point. If you want some more information about the split, you can check out this article. This isn't that unusual if you're also a Costco member you probably remember when they switched their allegiance from American Express to Mastercard last year.
The credit and debit card options were a good way to earn extra points and even earn points when you shopped at other stores, but I never had either and have still done pretty darn well collecting points. Hit up those extra points days and hoard your points until special events and you'll end up walking out the door with a cart (one of those adorable Shoppers mini carts) full of free goodies. You'll also get to bask in the jealous stares of the people behind you in line when your $200 bill drops right down to ZERO.
Check out the Shoppers Drug Mart website for more information on the Optimum program and make sure you download the app (Apple or Android) so you can take advantage of your specific offers.

Must be because Islam isn't a race that Bonni and her fellow enthusiasts for genocide sweep up so many non-Muslims in their ethnic cleansing attempts
If you were reading this blog back in November 2011 you may recall this post (just kidding, I don't really imagine you remember it) in which I drew attention to Bonni Benstock-Intall's utter lack of concern about Sikhs' being murdered by mistake for Muslims:
June 29, 2011 at 7:59 PM
Sikhs and Hindus wear turbans, not Muzzies. Just want you to get it straight so that if you all go on a rampage in England or wherever, you won't do what some stupid fundies did in AZ and kill a Sikh.
to which Bonni replied:
June 29, 2011 at 8:54 PM
Big deal, one Sikh got killed by someone thinking it was a muslim. Next?
So back then she wasn't bothered about non-Muslims getting killed just as long as people were trying (and usually succeeding) to kill Muslims. Because, hey, they're all filthy smelly brown-skinned sub-humans, right?
Back in February she wasn't worried about mistaken identity murders either. Indeed, when CAIR suggested that killing a Sikh by mistake for a Muslim should be treated as a hate crime, she decided that this meant that they wanted only attacks on Muslims to be treated as hate crimes. (Yes, I know, children, that's exactly the opposite of what CAIR asked for. Next?)
But in between, Bonni has had twinges of fake concern for Sikhs. Here, for example, she suggest that it would be a good idea if they took steps to protect themselves agauinst being mistaken for Muslims, for example by wearing big signs saying "SIKH" on them. Well, Bonni's idol Adolf had a similar idea: he made sure non-Jews wouldn't be mistaken for Jews by making all the Jews wear big yellow stars. What both cases have in common, of course, is the tacit assumption that the murderous attacks on the "sub-humans" must continue.
And now, a few days ago, Bonni publishes a guide to turbans so that potential murderers can more accurately target the Muslims she wants them to kill. She says as much:
Many people mistake Sikhs for Muslims due to their turbans, which often makes Sikhs targets of attacks meant for Muslims. Please study the differences in Sikh (right) and Muslim headgear below. You might be able to save a Sikh's life one day.
That's "save a Sikh's life" as in "murder somebody else".
When a Muslim-hating loon murdered a Hindu in New York just before Christmas, the lesson Bonni took from it was that all Muslims should leave New York because it wasn't safe for them (har, har). When a commenter pointed out that the victim was, in fact, a Hindu. here's what she had to say:
December 29, 2012 @ 7:34 pm
According to the New York Times the man murdered by this idiot was a Hindu.
This one not appropriate for BNI. I suggest you may want to take it down.
December 29, 2012 @ 8:03 pm
XY, the point is that she thought he was a Muslim.
December 29, 2012 @ 8:22 pm
No, the point is that he is NOT a Muslim and he was murdered by a lunatic who would have killed a dark skinned Safardi Jew as well. This post will be hurtful to his family and friends and there are more than enough other an better issues for BNI to post about than a murder of an innocent man.
December 29, 2012 @ 8:27 pm
You totally miss the point. But since you are not my employer, I don't have to bow to your request
The "point", of course, being that it doesn't matter to Bonni what kind of brown-skinned Untermensch gets killed provided that there are plenty of killings and that the Muslims are terrorized by the knowledge that they are the intended target. Indeed, even killing white-skinned, blue-eyed Nordic children is fine by her if it's intended to send a signal that Muslim immigration must stop. (Yet to her head-shaking incomprehansion, the foolish Norwegian government persists in blaming the murders on a white supremacist terrorist instead of on brown sub-humans.)

Sisi Property Ltd came to tile my shower at the drop of hat. First impressions were that they seemed a little slow, it quickly became apparent that they were in fact perfectionists.The end result was genuinely outstanding and I am delighted with their work. True craftsmen.They took their time because they were meticulous; not slow.The job manager was excellent, polite and friendly; and while the tilers were brilliant, I'd suggest John learns 'hello', 'thank you' and how to crack a smile though ;)
I highly recommend these guys first class work and an excellent team. On time as promised and very respectful in all ways.
I rarely leave feedback on these forums, but these guys really deserve it. Our kitchen tiling and painting was done to an excellent standard. Our decorator put dust sheets on everything, taped up areas so nothing was painted that shouldn't have been. He hoovered, and placed everything back that he'd moved at the end of each day. He even sent us photos of progress! Would highly recommend and be happy to ask them to come back in the future. Thank you!

Tarragon Chicken Bundles
Recipe by Kree6528
This is posted in response to a request for recipes using tarragon. I got this recipe from Taste of Home magazine. I haven't tried it yet, but I plan to very soon! It calls for 2 teaspoons dried tarragon, but I bet it would be even yummier if fresh tarragon was used! Prep time includes time to cut up the chicken and vegetables.
Top Review by PanNan
We enjoyed this recipe a lot. After a little vegetable chopping, it was so easy to make these bundles. I accidently defrosted chicken thighs instead of breasts, but it worked out very well. The chicken was extremely moist and tender. I also used fresh tarragon. The flavor was very subtle and good. After 20 minutes the vegetables weren't quite tender enough, so I opened the packets and browned them a few minutes under the broiler. Gave a little "charred" or roasted flavor to them. DH thought it was just a little too subtle and he added Pace and pronounced it delicious. Thanks for this keeper.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
- 2 medium carrots, julienned
- 1 medium summer squash, julienned
- 1 medium zucchini, julienned
- 1 cup fresh mushrooms, halved
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons margarine
- 2 teaspoons dried tarragon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- pepper
Directions See How It's Made
- Divide the chicken strips and vegetables among four pieces of heavy-duty foil.
- Top each with 1 Tbsp butter, tarragon, salt, and pepper.
- Fold foil over and seal tightly.
- Grill, covered, over medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until chicken juices run clear and vegetables are tender.

Speaking to a popular Tamil magazine, Charmee said the she would tie the nuptial knot only after winning a National Award. That statement was given by Charmee in December, 2013. But no such role came her way that could be potentially challenging to win her a National Award. She pinned her hopes on her last Telugu release 'Pratighatana'. But the film flopped miserably destroying all her dreams to win a National Award. Anyway, a film's success has got nothing to do with winning a National Award. Nevertheless, her performance in the film isn't worthy enough to win an award.
You might be wondering if Charmee has come to a compromise and decided to go ahead with marriage plans. Nope. According to the latest buzz, Charmee might play the title role for the South remake of superhit Hindi film 'Queen'. Many big heroines' names have been considered but they backed away from the offer. Top heroine Samanta too declined the offer saying that she didn't like the changes made in the name of nativity. Others are afraid of spoiling the original feel and living up to the expectations Kangana Ranaut has created with her fantastic performance.
With all these odds, if Charmee gets to portray 'Queen' in the remake and give an outstanding electric performance in par with that of Kangana, there is every chance she might win a National Award for the movie. Though the makers haven't made anything official yet, her well wishers are hoping she might get the offer. And we the audience would be happy to hear the news of wedding bells ringing for her finally.

Bond Types
There are three types of bods.
An Ionic Bond I where atoms will either loose or gain an electron. An example is NaCl. Na has one valence electron but Cl has seven. Due to the octet rule, the valence electron from Na will move to complete Cl. Ionic Bonds tend to have solubility in water, not melt at a low temperature, and are only able to conduct in either a liquid state or dissolved in water.
A Covalent Bond is where the electron is shared between the atoms. An example would be sugar. Covalent Bonds are also often soluble but they can melt at a lower temperature.
A Metallic Bond is a balance between cations and anions. Most metals have this bond type and can conduct electricity. Usually they do not melt at low temperatures.

A Flying Jatt 16th Day worldwide Box Office Total Collection
A Flying Jatt 16th Day worldwide Box Office Total Collection,A Flying Jatt Movie review budget worldwide collection all A Flying Jatt movie details on Boxofficetotalcollection
A Flying Jatt 16th Day worldwide Box Office Total Collection:Tiger Shroff-starrer A Flying Jatt opened on the event of Janmashtami, a fractional occasion, making an accumulation of Rs 7.10 crore. Be that as it may, the film which was relied upon to accumulate a superior business on its day 2, neglected to do as such. On Friday (August 26), the Tiger Shroff film made an accumulation of Rs 6 crore, which is even lower that its opening day benefits. In this manner the aggregate acquiring of the film remains at Rs 13. 10 crore in two days of its discharge.
Exchange investigator Taran Adarsh tweeted the most recent accumulations of A Flying Jatt saying: #AFlyingJatt stays low on Fri… Sat + Sun are urgent days… Thu [Janmashtami] 7.10 cr, Fri 6 cr. Complete: ₹ 13.10 cr. India biz.
The film which happens to be Tiger's third film however neglected to end up the greatest opener for the performing artist. It could have gotten better numbers. Be that as it may, blended surveys by the faultfinders appear to have influenced the business to a bigger degree. A Flying Jatt is coordinated by Remo D'souza furthermore stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Nathan Jones and Kay Menon in key parts.
A Flying Jatt 16th Day worldwide Box Office Total Collection
The film, however has an opportunity to show great development on Saturday and Sunday and is relied upon to emerge with a not too bad figure in the cinematic world in its expanded opening weekend. In the event that the very first moment pointers are anything to pass by, Tiger Shroff-starter A Flying Jatt looks all set to awe kids. A multiplex that we registered with early today saw a better than average turnout of children joined by guardians trooping into catch the main appear. What's more, the radiating grins on the youthful ones countenances said it all.
As kids and their folks get free, they will hope to go to silver screens. Youngsters will truly drag their folks to theaters particularly as this super-legend film is a family performer and they might want to know how great a super-saint India can create. Bollywood got into the demonstration with Krrish and now it is the turn of A Flying Jatt. According to reports, on Friday, A Flying Jatt can take a gander at Rs 8-9 crore accumulation and by Sunday, it has a decent risk of breaking into twofold digit figures

For the seventh consecutive year and through 2012, Mobil 1 is the "Official Motor Oil of NASCAR."
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing Inc. (NASCAR) and ExxonMobil will remain linked, as ExxonMobil renewed a long-standing commitment with NASCAR for its Mobil 1 motor oil and Mobil brand of lubricant products.
The 2009 NASCAR season marks the seventh consecutive season in which Mobil 1 is the "Official Motor Oil of NASCAR" and the Mobil brand of lubricant products are the "Official Lubricants of NASCAR." The new agreement extends that official partnership through the 2012 season.

Petition the BBC over homophobic language
August 5th, 2006
Dr Petra
A petition has been launched for the BBC Board of Governors to reconsider decision to uphold complaint over Chris Moyles' use of word 'gay' as a derogatory remark. You can sign it here.
More information (from the petition's website) is below.
"The word "gay" now means "lame" or "rubbish" among young people and need not be offensive to homosexuals, the BBC Board of Governors has ruled." Yahoo UK & Ireland News. Wednesday 6th June
Speaking on Radio 1's Breakfast show, presenter Chris Moyles rejected a ringtone by saying, "I don't want that one, it's gay". Following a listener complaint, the BBC Board of Governors ruled in favour of Moyles, stating that they believed he had not used it homophobically. The verdict has brought condemnation from Stonewall, School's OUT! and anti-bullying groups. By failing to uphold the listener's complaint against Chris Moyles' derogatory use of the word 'gay', the BBC is condoning its misuse and validating homophobia amongst an audience of impressionable young listeners. This decision by the BBC Board of Governors is homophobic, reached by a board with no openly gay representative.
The use of the word 'gay' to mean anything that is without value and substandard is now so prevalent in the vocabulary of children (even at a primary school) that many adults fail to challenge it because they believe it has lost its negative connotation. Language changes all the time, but this is not simply the mutation of an adjective that once defined something that was 'bright and showy' or 'carefree'. In young people today we are seeing an abuse of the definition for a community of people. The word 'gay's devolution as a derogatory word is, according to School's Out, "rooted in the idea that being gay is a bad thing which it is acceptable to ridicule."
Chris Moyles has an audience of thousands of young people. The use of language on his show reinforces and stimulates the language of thousands of UK teenagers.
Claire Anderson of the Stamp Out Homophobia in Schools Campaign, says 'Victims of homophobic bullying will be made more vulnerable to abuse if there is any acceptance among staff or pupils that a derogatory use of 'gay' is not a homophobic attack.'
And how are lesbian, gay and bisexual young people going to feel about their own sexuality if they constantly hear it referenced (homophobically or not) in such a negative way?Tweet

Scrubba takes the Ice Bucket Challenge
Christina Georgiadis talks about taking the Ice Bucket Challenge in support of ALS / MND.
Dear Scrubba Team,
After finishing my uni degree in Melbourne, Australia, I decided to go traveling around South-east Asia to experience a new world and do some volunteering.
I spent 6 weeks in Vietnam, where my Scrubba wash bag came in very handy for not only washing clothes, but keeping wet/dry and dirty/clean clothes separate as well as keeping my clothes above some sub-par hostel bathroom floors. I put my clothes in the bag, clip it and hang it on the doorknob while I shower!
Recently, I was in Kampot, South Cambodia on my way to volunteering with the NGO when I was challenged by a friend and fellow backpacker to take the Ice Bucket Challenge. I decided to answer the call right then and there, but there wasn't a bucket in sight. Behold, yet another use for my Scrubba wash bag!
The girl in the photo is known by the locals as Can Can. She was hesitant about pouring freezing cold ice water over my head while my travel buddy filmed.
Thank you, Christina for sending in these great photos and glad to hear that you're enjoying your Scrubba wash bag in more ways than one!

On the afternoon of 22 March 1943 the crew of Whitley G.R.Mk.V (Z6950) of No.10 Operational Training Unit, flown by Sergeant J.A. Marsden, from St.Eval, Cornwall, spotted a U-boat on the surface about 300 miles west of St. Nazaire. Marsden turned and dropped six depth charges, which straddled the U-boat. It was the The Type VIIC boat U-665 (shown here), commanded by Oberleutnant zur See Hans-Jurgen Haupt. It was on its first war cruise, having left Kiel on 20 February 1943 and already sank one merchant vessel. It was lost with all forty-six crew members. Ref: AIR 28/741

May 17, 2016
Law360, Los Angeles (May 17, 2016, 10:36 PM ET) ¬¬ Airbnb was hit Tuesday with a proposed class action in D.C. federal court by an African¬American man who claims he was denied an accommodation in Philadelphia due to his race after a study found widespread discrimination against black Airbnb guests.
In a suit alleging violations of federal laws including the Civil Rights Act and the Fair Housing Act, Gregory Selden says an Airbnb Inc. host agent initially rejected his application but then accepted it after he applied under imitation profiles featuring white individuals.
Selden further accuses the agent of shaming him when he complained.
A recently released working paper from Harvard Business School found that guests with distinctively African¬American names were about 16 percent less likely to be accepted on Airbnb than identical guests with distinctively white names.
Meanwhile, the alleged discrimination against Selden drew attention earlier this year when it spawned a viral hashtag titled "#airbnbwhileblack" that was retweeted thousands of times by individuals complaining of similar bias from Airbnb host agents and representatives, court papers said.
"This action is necessary and increasingly important to protect the civil rights of plaintiff's and all others similarly situated that participate in the 'sharing economy' in which businesses connect people offering goods and services with other people who want to pay for them," Selden's suit said.
Selden, a 25¬year¬old resident of Virginia, says around March 2015, while working at his job in Washington, D.C., he signed up for Airbnb to secure housing in Philadelphia for a weekend getaway with friends. Selden's profile included his face, along with his name, education, sex, age and location of residence.
Selden allegedly inquired about the availability of a Philadelphia accommodation from a host listed with the screen name "Paul," who said it wasn't available. Shortly thereafter, Selden came across the same listing by the agent or another Airbnb worker saying the accommodation was still available, his suit claims. Believing he was discriminated against because of his race, Selden set up two fake Airbnb profiles: one for a white individual named "Jessie" with similar demographics as him and one for an older white male named "Todd." With both profiles, the agent could only see the name, profile picture, location and length of time they had been a member of the Airbnb community.
The same host agent who rejected Selden immediately accepted the imitation profiles' requests for the same accommodations he had previously sought, according to the complaint. Selden then contacted Airbnb to complain of discrimination, but the company didn't respond. He later confronted the host agent, who allegedly said Selden or "people like [him] were simply victimizing [himself]," the suit says.
The proposed class action claims Selden continued to contact Airbnb through March 2015 but that "his cries … would fall on deaf ear."
The suit seeks unspecified damages, injunctive relief and other relief. "The sharing economy has grown exponentially, and Mr. Selden's experiences of not being accommodated by Airbnb because of his race put in motion this country's most iconic civil rights laws," Ikechukwu "Ike" Emejuru of Emejuru & Nyombi LLC, who is representing Selden, said in a statement to Law360 on Tuesday.
Representatives for Airbnb didn't immediately respond to requests for comment late
Selden is represented by Ike Emejuru and Andrew Nyombi of Emejuru & Nyombi LLC. Counsel information for Airbnb wasn't immediately available.
The case is Gregory Selden et al. v. Airbnb Inc., case number 1:16¬cv¬00933, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

While it may not be difficult to find replacement parts for Mercedes-Benz vehicles, these days only the highest quality are required to maintain your automobile. When your Mercedes-Benz 300SE left the factory, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who prioritizes German engineering in their automobile. You picked your 300SE because its a reputation for strength and German engineering struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for second best when it comes to superior quality auto parts? Anyone who owns a Mercedes-Benz knows that when it comes to repairing their automobile only the most superior replacement parts will do.
One of the keys to maintaining an operational engine and full use of your accessories is keeping an eye on your drive belts. Your Mercedes-Benz 300SE drive or serpentine belts are essentially siphoning power from the crank and sending it to the various accessory pulleys. But since they are traveling at such high speeds, they can be prone to breaking; potentially leaving your engine without the use of its A/C compressor, power steering, or more. Mercedes-Benz 300SE engines with more than one belt joining all of the accessories to the crank pulley have a drive belt system, while a serpentine belt system does the job with just one.
Procuring new Mercedes-Benz parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement 300SE parts on the internet. Bring your 300SE back to life with the highest quality repair parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Don't let a Drive & Serpentine Belt repair bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by installing anything but the best replacement parts. All the Mercedes-Benz 300SE Drive & Serpentine Belt parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1965, 1964, 1963, 1962, 1961, 1960.

Pan Fried Pork With Balsamic Onions
Recipe by babybuffalo
I found this on azcentral.com. We tried it last night and it was so tasty! Very easy to make, also.
Top Review by justcallmetoni
I love balsamic chicken with either onions or mushrooms but had not considered this combination with pork until seeing this recipe. So obvious and yet easy to overlook. The results are just as wonderful and easy to prepare. My only two suggestions are to wipe the pan between cooking the chops and onions and to double up on the onions as they will go fast. Thanks!!

Cochamo Valley, Chile
"What's that?"
Giovanni smirked over his shoulder as he backed into the living room. "Another bookcase."
Beatrice rolled her eyes as Gustavo stumbled into the room. "Haha. Funny, it sure looks like a piano."
"And not one that was easy to get here," Gustavo muttered.
"Gio, why did you bring a piano to the house?"
"Because we're going to be here for at least a year, and I like the piano."
She shrugged and turned back to the fire and her book.
"And I thought maybe you would like to learn, too."
She glanced over at the two vampires. "I'm not very musical."
"I know," Gustavo said. "I've heard you hum."
"Hey!" She tossed a pillow at him, but he only chuckled as he and Giovanni maneuvered the piano into a corner of the living room near the bookcases. It was a small upright, shiny black, and blended nicely with the dark wood and wrought iron which decorated their mountain home. Much smaller than Giovanni's grand piano at their house in Los Angeles, she knew he would enjoy playing it just as much.
Beatrice heard footsteps crossing the meadow and rose to meet the visitor at the door. It was Isabel, carrying the bench for the piano.
"They forgot this!" she called as she climbed the steps. "I'm amazed it all made it into the valley in one piece."
Gustavo walked over and took the bench from her. "We didn't forget it, woman. We may have inhuman strength, but we still only have two hands apiece."
Isabel came to sit next to Beatrice and put her arm around the younger woman. "How are you? I haven't seen you since Christmas."
"Fine," she nodded. "Good. I've been doing a lot of reading."
"Ben's doing well. He and Father are thick as thieves."
Beatrice smiled. "Well, that's not a surprise. They're about the same age, mentally."
Isabel's laugh pealed out and Beatrice saw Gustavo look up, watching his wife with a small smile as he helped Giovanni.
"You're right, you know; you missed the wrestling match. I've never… I don't think there are words to describe that scene."
"I was sorry to miss it, but I didn't want to spoil Ben's fun by, you know, draining him or something."
Isabel nodded. "Good point. Nice of you to be so thoughtful."
"I try."
Isabel raised a knowing eyebrow. "Really?"
Beatrice took a deep breath and swallowed the lump that had risen in her throat. "I'm… trying."
Isabel leaned over and squeezed her shoulders in a quick hug before she rose from the couch. "I'll see you later. If you want a break from this one," she pointed at Giovanni, "just use the radio."
Giovanni scowled at Isabel. "Why would she want a break from me?"
Beatrice snickered as Isabel gave him a dry look, then pulled Gustavo out the door, muttering under her breath about "stubborn, donkey men."
Giovanni sat next to her on the couch, tossing more flames toward the dwindling fire, even though it was summer. He frowned and looked into the bright flames which lit the dim cabin. "So, you really don't have any interest in learning the piano?"
Beatrice leaned into his shoulder and shrugged. "Like I said, I'm not musical."

Mahatma Ghandi
By: Edward Veasey
Mahatma Ghandi was born October 2, 1869 in Porbandar, India. He believed that issues should be solved in in a non-violent manner. He became known when he revolted against the british rule over india. He would keep his composure and handle the problem with kindness but with disobedience. The british would attack with force but Ghandi refused to act in such a barbaric way. He became known all around. Some people compare him and Martin Luther King together because they both believe that problems shouldn't be handled with aggression but with kindness and peace. Ghandi was soon assassinated on January 30, 1948 in New Delhi, India by Nathuram Godse.But his legacy of solving problems with peace and kindness.

Chilean Caught Stealing Five Tons Of Glacier Ice
February 3, 2012 by staff
Chilean Caught Stealing Five Tons Of Glacier Ice, Police in the southern Chilean city of Cochrane arrested a man who attempted to steal over five tons of ice from the Jorge Montt Glacier, 1,700 kilometers south of the capital Santiago, El Mercurio daily reported on Wednesday.
A truck loaded with five tons of ice was stopped near Cochrane, the city's prosecutor Jose Moris told the El Mercurio
Police think the ice was to be sold to Santiago bars for mixing ccktails, the paper said, adding that the driver would face charges of theft and damage to the nation's cultural heritage.
Ice theft is considered a major crime in Chile, according to the daily, as the Jorge Montt is one of the most rapidly receding glaciers. It is a part of the 13,000-square-kilometer Southern Ice Field, the world's third biggest frozen landmass, shared by Chile and Argentina.
The seized ice, valued at an estimated $6,000, will be used for irrigating drought-hit local crops in Cochrane, El Mercurio reported.
