Sir, Boss, Master, ALPHA, GOD.... They are just words. Billy is all of these things; 6'4", muscle, ripped, tattooed, pure power, the man, the top of the food chain.
He Texts:
6pm, worship me. Billy.
I'm ready for him.
Around 6:00 I hear the keycard open the door of the hotel room. I stand to greet him as the door opens and the room fills with his presence. Billy is fresh from the gym; his body is shining with sweat, his veins thick beneath his skin and pulsing with raw power. The vest he has worked out in hangs from broad shoulders, clinging to his chest and wet with sweat. My nose fills with Billy's scent – sweat from a brutal workout, testosterone and raw animal aggression. It makes my head swim and my mouth fills with saliva, lubricating my throat ready to take him. My heart starts to race and blood swells my 9 inch dick; I'm big, but not compared to Billy. I drop to my knees in front of him, ready to serve.
I am at eye level with his shorts; the outline of his dick is clear, running down the length of his shorts and quickly getting bigger. Billy is stood over me, no words are needed, and he just stands, emanating his power as I drink it in. We stay like this for some time, all the while his shorts struggle to contain him but Billy isn't anywhere near hard yet. I can't resist and lean into his crotch, feel the heat from his massive dick close to my face. I am drunk on him and nothing matters but his pleasure.
A few moments more pass and Billy lets out a deep breath as he tips his head back, allowing the energy in his body to build, his muscles twitch as he stands solid and strong above me. Billy looks down over me, smiles and nods; he is ready to be worshipped.
I reach up and touch Billy's crotch. A surge rushes through him and he shivers. His hands clench as he struggles to control the demon inside – Hold him back as he fights to be released. The aggression is boiling, and will soon enough overwhelm him and explode.
I reach into his shorts and pull out his dick. Billy is the Alpha Male, and the heavy dick in my hands is testament. Not yet full, but filling my hands and heavy it is hot and ready to be worshipped. I release his dick and it hangs in front of his shorts, inches from my face. I move my hands behind my back look into Billy's eyes and open my mouth.
Billy needs to piss; he grabs his dick in one hand and places the other on my head to steady himself, as he would place his hand on the wall at a urinal. He releases his piss into me, I drink. As he is emptying his bladder he slowly moves forward and his semi hard cock slips into my mouth and then my throat, he is still pissing but now it is flowing straight into my stomach. My eyes are staring at his hard stomach as Billy takes what he needs from me. I can't breathe, but that doesn't matter. As he finishes I begin to struggle, I need air, my hands move to his thighs, instinctively trying to pull away. He is ready and his hand moves from the top of my head to the back, I'm held in place, there is no choice. I know that.
As the world goes black for me, Billy pulls from my throat. I collapse and take a deep lungful of air. Billy smiles and walks away, I follow.
The bathroom is well lit, tiled floor to ceiling with a huge mirror. Billy stands in the middle of the room in front of the mirror, proud and strong. I remove his vest, his trainers, and his shorts. He is stood naked, legs shoulder width apart, arms to his side, slightly away from his torso, bent at the elbows and fists clenched, and he looks ready to fight.
I am in the room with him, but he does not see me, he only sees himself in the mirror, he admires his work, he is everything. I work fast; using a sponge I wipe his body clean. I pour warm water on Billy's head and it runs down his face, across his strong jaw and thick neck, over deep hard pecs and down each individual abdominal muscle. I allow myself to taste the sweat from under his arm and take a deep lungful of his scent. His power fills my nose. I clean his body to the waist and kneel behind him. Billy allows me to taste the sweat from his ass; I devour him hard, tasting more of him.
His legs are cleaned but I miss his dick, its scent is too good to wash away. Billy's body is clean, shining with moisture and his dick is still growing, from a soft 8 inches, he is now nearly hard, and close to his full 11 inches. He will be there soon, but when Billy is with me, he is harder than usual, his weapon is white hot, the veins are close to tearing through his skin, and there is no give in it, solid as steel, thicker than my forearm. Created to hurt everyone he fucks; 11 inches of raging weapon.
I open a bottle of oil and pour it into my hands. Billy stands strong, breathing deeply, eyes focused on his reflection. I work the oil into his skin, pulling my hands down his arms to the tips of his fingers. Working from his shoulders and down into the small of his back. Pushing my hands into his chest as he stands firm. Wiping down his stomach. Kneading each leg from his thighs to his toes.
Billy is stood, head to toe in oil, shining, hard, and powerful.
Billy's dick is pouring pre cum. The demon is rising. His eyes are dark and focused. His breathing deep and heavy. He is stood before me, hungry.
Billy's right hand moves, fast. He grabs me by the throat and pulls me towards him, turning my body so I am stood facing the mirror with Billy behind me. I look into the mirror and into Billy's eyes. They are wide; I can see the demon inside him. His left hand moves to my waist, he is positioning me.
We both breathe deeply, never breaking eye contact, his meat is lining up at my ass. I read his eyes; he is ready to take what he needs. I stand strong, ready. Billy breathes in sharply and drives his dick into me; my ass is forced open as he powers himself into his fuckhole. Every inch is driven into my guts, forcing my legs to part and my ass to give in to it. Billy's hands hold me in place as he continues pushing himself into me. I can feel him inside me, stretching my guts beyond what they can take but still there is more to come. Billy has reached deep inside me and I am full. He holds himself there for a few seconds as he enjoys his dick wrapped in warm flesh. He slowly pivots his hard ass and his massive dick withdraws from me, before driving back in until his stomach hits my ass. His dick pushes into my ass ignoring any internal resistance from my body, mechanically driving deep into me.
Billy walks me to the wall, all the time pumping my ass with unconscious movements. I hit the wall and I am pressed hard to it. Billy moves his right hand from my throat to the back of my head and pushes my face to the wall. I am pinned by my head, with my body hanging below being abused.
Billy isn't here anymore, he has lost control, the red mist that clouds over his eyes has enveloped him and now the demons are in charge. The fucking gathers pace, harder, deeper, faster. Billy is slamming into me, pulling all 11 inches out of my ass before using his entire body to force it back in. My ass is ripped open, I can't move, I am pinned to the wall and my ass is being pounded with a massive dick. My guts are pulverised and Billy is slam fucking me, His breathing is ragged on my neck and specked with saliva as the animal in him takes over.
Billy grinds into me deeper and harder as he gets close. I hang from the wall as he takes what he wants for his pleasure. That's how it works, Alphas take what they want, if you present yourself to them, you give your body for their pleasure.
As every muscle in Billy's body is driving his massive dick into me harder and deeper, he is getting close to exploding. The air is full of aggression and power, Billy is smashing the fuckhole in front of him into the wall. He starts to growl, rising from deep in his gut, short grunts at first, quickly building to a deep roaring growl as Billy dumps his cum into my guts, my feet leave the floor and my head is dragged up the wall as billy fucks his cum up into my guts, hard.
Time freezes as he stands unloading into me, and Billy relaxes and we drop to a standing position. Billy holds on as he regains composure. His massive meat is still inside me as our breathing returns to normal.
Billy steps away and his dick rips out of me. I am empty. I follow Billy to the bed and he falls onto it. I move alongside him and suck him into my throat I can taste his cum. It won't be long before he gets hard again....

The study and enjoyment of working from existing images stirred up the need in Sarah to create images of her own; ones that could reflect the world, yet also appease the personal feelings/ideas that she herself maintained. Her direction changed gradually from the world of animation to a path in fine art.

Anne Elise + Michael originally met at Tulane. However, they were a year a part in school so for a short period of time after Michael graduated they spent time in two different states. The original plan was for them to stay in those places until after Anne Elise finished school..but Michael couldn't wait! 🙂 Now, they are both officially Louisiana residents.
Michael proposed to Anne Elise in the courtyard of Tableu with their families waiting upstairs. Anne Elise shared the video, which was SO incredibly sweet!! You can view their proposal video at this link: https://vimeo.com/17606999
Anne Elise and Michael chose City Park in New Orleans for their engagement session because they loved the mossy oaks and variety in the landscape. We had such a fun day!!! …. I'm so thrilled to post a preview of their session:

Generally government is held responsible for injustice towards Urdu language but when Minority institutions themselves do injustice towards it who should be blamed? The driver-cum-owner scheme introduced by Minority Finance Corporation was launched in a function held here on Friday at Hajj House. Union Minister Bandaru Dattatreya, Chief Minister Mohammed Mahmood Ali and all officials of Minority Welfare were present on the occasion. Logo of Minority Finance Corporation was released in the function. New logo has been prepared after split of the corporation into two states. People present there were taken by surprise after seeing the logo as it did not include Urdu script in it. Urdu being second official language should have been included in the logo but everyone was surprised and disappointment by this move of Minority Finance Corporation.

The guard manoeuvred the boy into position on the lawn, and pushed him back down onto his knees on the wet grass, about twenty feet away from, and facing towards, the French-style veranda which ran right around the bottom floor of the elegant colonial building. He roughly kicked the inside of the boy's knees so his legs were spread wide apart. The boy wanted to slump down, wanted his arse to sink to the grass, but the guard quickly pulled him up, so his thighs and torso formed a vertical straight line. The rain was still pounding down, heavy as ever.
'Look at the ground. Do not look up. Keep your back straight. Do not slump. Wait here, totally still, until the master calls for you. I will be watching' the guard ordered. And then, the grip on the boy's hair was released, and the guard walked away.
Caleb listened to the jangling noise of the guard's key belt, disappearing into the distance. He wanted to rub at the stinging, sore welts across his muscular chest and stomach, but the hand cuffs made that impossible. He was very aware of his nakedness, only the soaking wet red speedos covering his modesty. Tears were running down his cheeks, indistinguishable from the rainwater that trickled down his face, but the cooling stream went some way towards soothing his pain. His view was restricted, with the water running off his matted clump of blond hair and running in streams into his eyes. All he could see was the straggling ends of his long hair, hanging limply from his forehead towards the ground, water dripping off the ends towards the grass below.
He wanted to look up at the house in front of him but he was afraid of the return of that leather strap, so he did as he was told. He stayed as still as he could, but there was no way he could control the shivers running through his body as the cold penetrated his flesh. Without moving his head, he raised his eyeballs as much as possible. He was practically peering through his own eyebrows, and it made his eyes sore, but he could just make out the base of the veranda, wood boards raising the level of the deck just above the perfectly manicured lawn. There was some ornate furniture, maybe an iron table and some spindly iron chairs, he could not be sure, as he could only see the feet, and the contrast between the bright spotlit grass and the cool dark shade of the veranda was difficult to see through. Behind, what looked like a large double glass door, and a bit of light, coming through a gap, maybe in a curtain?
He shivered, alone in his misery. Part of his body said run, escape now, while you can. But he knew it was already too late for that. That chirpy, optimistic voice in his head started up 'maybe it's gonna be alright' it said. 'Maybe things will be ok'. He didn't believe a word of it, but in his naive way, he couldn't imagine anything worse that the treatment he had already suffered.
It was difficult to judge time, kneeling there in the spotlight beam on the damp grass, but it must have been at least an hour. Caleb's thoughts had drifted, and he may have even drifted into a cold, semi sleep. Whatever it was, he suddenly became aware of his surroundings again. He was still kneeling on the ground, and his legs, still spread wide, had gone quite numb from the cold and the tension of his uncomfortable position. '
However the rain had eased off to not much more than a summer shower and the pounding in his ears had been replaced by... he was not sure, but it sounded like polite conversation. A little mild classical music. The clink of cutlery and glasses. He felt like he was going insane. He heard the noise of a door latch being released, and he forced himself not to raise his head, instead peering again through his eyebrows. The curtains had been pulled back completely from the double glass doors, and the silhouette of a man's legs could be seen. The glass doors swung open, and the party-like noise suddenly became louder. A man's voice rang out, polite, cultured, urbane. He recognised it immediately.
'Looks like the rain is easing off at last'
That was the voice that had addressed him, less than 12 hours ago, in another life, another world.
The voice of the master, the ambassador, his tormentor, the same measured, cool tones that he used when he had been discussing the matters at hand, describing the situation, and then, out of the blue, issuing that shocking proposition to Caleb. The voice was so every day, so normal, that Caleb had not even taken in the proposition when it had first been issued. It had to be repeated, and even then Caleb could not believe what he had just been told.
He had sat at the mahogany desk in the small office above the bar, the creaking desk fan providing little relief against the humid heat. Caleb sat still dressed in the beer-stained shirt and Bermuda shorts that he had been wearing last night at the chalet.
He thought back to that last innocent drink, drinking with his new friends, Tate, the proud, 19 year old African-American wrestler jock, and Angus, the 25 year old stocky, red haired Scotsman with the dry sense of humour, in their rented beach chalet.
They had befriended Caleb on the mainland, got the naive 18 year old Aussie muscle boy out of a risky situation with a Thai prostitute who was not the woman that Caleb thought he/she was. They had joked to Caleb about how naive he was, and Caleb had blushed, because here he was, on his first ever trip aboard, separated from his travelling companion who had returned to Sydney, rucksacking across Asia without a care in the world and just one plan -to lose his virginity - of course he didn't tell them about the virginity thing, they didn't want them to pity him, but they instinctively picked up on the fact that here he was, a school sports hero muscle boy who had somehow never plucked up the courage to go that extra step with any of the local girls, despite them obviously wanting him. We'll protect you, they'd promised, and they had, taking him by the hand through some of the dark corners of the continent, and ending up here, on this island, way off the tourist trail. It even looked like they were lining up one of the local girls to help him out with his problem, when the door was suddenly kicked in and the police stormed the room.
The night in the police cells had been unbearable. Constant questioning. Angry faces. No sleep. And then suddenly, being dragged from his cell and taken, unexpectedly, to the main gate of the police station, and kicked out onto the street. What about my friends, he screamed. And then, the sight of the two friends being manhandled into the back of a police Land Rover. He saw the fear in Tate's eyes, the blood on his lip from the beating he had received. His soft accented voice, echoing across the yard.
'Help me. Help me please'
'Your friends no go', the policeman behind the desk shouted in his broken English. 'They smugglers. Much cocaine. Tourist scum. They go to Hun-Kok prison. They guilty'
Caleb was at a loss, unable to think straight, so he never noticed the man in the white linen suit who walked up beside him. 'Nasty place, Hun Kok prison. Overcrowded, full of disease. I wouldn't send my worst enemy there...'
Caleb looked into the Englishman's face, a young man, brown hair, strangely free of sweat in this humid office. The man held out his hand. 'Anderson, I keep the British end up round here, if you know what I mean'
'What's going to happen to my friends?' Caleb blurted out
And Anderson laid it all out. He explained about how the two of them would be charged with smuggling, and held in Hun Kok until the trial, although by the time the trial occurred, he regretted to say, they would probably not be around to see it, as if the rats and disease in Hun Kok don't get you, the gangs of murderers and rapists... well, it doesn't matter how good they are at high school wrestling, skill in a combative sport is no match to the skill of someone who fights every day literally to survive. Foreigners in Hun Kok, especially young, sexy ones, were in for long days and nights of being traded for smokes, forced to service sex-hungry animals on the floors of the rat infested cells without contraception or protection - until one day they fail to work their mouths or butts well enough, or the local drug king-pin discovers about their little freelance drug export business, and then an example would have to be made for stepping on the wrong person's territory. Of course their consulates would try and get them out, but two young drug smugglers... to be honest, they're not going to try too hard...
'There must be something I can do' Caleb offered...
And that's when the mysterious little smile spread across Anderson's face. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a business card.
'There is one possible option. The ambassador. At least that's what he calls himself. He's an ex-pat businessman, an eccentric, got a knighthood for something or other, retired out here many years ago, but he has some swing with the local police chief. Maybe he can get your friends moved to a different jail while they wait for the trial. No guarantees. Why don't you speak to him. He has a bar in town; he calls it the consulate...'
And, one pleading phone call and a short taxi ride later, Caleb was looking across the table at the sweating, rounded face of Sir Harold Cartwright, the so-called ambassador, hearing him explain in his flat, pleasant monotone of the trouble his two friends were in, the penalties for smuggling drugs, and how lucky Caleb was to have been released by the police without charge.
Caleb trusted this plain speaking man. He had blurted out about how the drugs had been found in his own luggage, he had no idea how they got there, how he felt responsible for his friends, how he would do anything to help them.
'Anything?' the Round faced man had asked, raising an eyebrow. Caleb was in no doubt.
And then the man had laid out a proposal, a proposal so horrific, so perverse, that Caleb could not believe his own ears. In the same monotone, pleasant voice, the man had offered Caleb a deal, He will get his friends moved to a safe place, keep them protected until the trial, which could be two or three months.
In exchange, Caleb would come to the ambassador's residence in the hills, tonight at eight pm sharp. Caleb would be dressed only in his swimwear. And Caleb would willingly, uncomplainingly, become the ambassador's slave until the trial was over. He would submit to anything the ambassador wanted him to do. There would be no perversion or sexual act that he would refuse to carry out.
Caleb's mouth dropped, only able to offer the word 'what?'. But the ambassador repeated his proposal, coolly, unemotionally. He concluded his proposal like he was finishing any normal business consultation.
'So, if there's nothing else, I will begin work on this case and make initial preparations. If you are willing to accept the terms, please be at the designated location by no later than 8pm tonight, which gives you about twelve hours to consider the options. But please be aware, if you decide to decline this offer by not turning up at the hour stated, it will not be presented again, and there is no one else on this island that has the influence to make an offer such as this. Now if you'll excuse me, I have other business to attend to. Good day'
And with that, the man turned away and began to write notes into a large old fashioned legal journal. Caleb stood, in shock, and left the room.
That had been twelve long, mentally torturing hours ago. Caleb had sat on the beach, going through all the levels of disgust, disbelief, betrayal, and self hate. He convinced himself a dozen times that he can't go through with it, and then remembered his friends pleading. Sure, he had known them only a few days. But, mates are mates. And, once 11 of the most never ending, restless hours were behind him, he had found himself on that long winding road to the ambassador's residence.
The man's legs walked out onto the veranda. Caleb wanted to look up, look directly into the face of the instigator of his torture. But he was cold and tired, and he had no fight in him. He had to make do with staring at the man's shoes, the bottom of his elegant suit trousers.
A woman joined the man on the veranda. From where they were standing, Caleb realised they must have been looking directly at Caleb's semi-naked form, brightly lit less than twenty feet away. But the same inane, pleasant, social occasion chatter continued. The woman, in a posh, cultured voice, was saying something about hoping the roads had not been washed out by the storm. No, the ambassador countered, I don't think the storm was that bad, but I'll ask Henderson to bring the four wheel drive around, just in case. Not an elegant way for a lady and her debutante daughter to travel, he joked. The woman laughed, politely.
Caleb wanted to scream. Are these people insane? How the hell could they just stand there, prattling on, as if he wasn't in plain sight of them. Another elderly man had joined the group on the veranda now, he heard him being referred to as the colonel, and voices taking and joking inside the property suggested that there was at least a couple of other men and women still inside. Glasses clinked. The sound of a match being stuck and the faint smell of cigar smoke.
Caleb could hold it in no longer. He began to mutter, hardly louder than a whisper at first, but getting slowly louder.
'Please. Please sir. Tell me what you want from me. I'm cold and I'm hurt. Please. Please let me go...'
Sir Harold took a long draw on the Cuban cigar as he stared across the grass towards the shivering sema-naked hunk. He could see the boys lips moving, mouthing the words that could just, faintly be heard over the general revelry. Lady Margaret's daughter Amelia was just joining them on the veranda. She shivered in the chill of the evening air, and glanced out at the soaking wet boy. Her eyes betrayed her emotions for a moment-part disgust, part arousal, but her social etiquette took over, and she forced her eyes away to talk directly to Sir Harold, launching into some inane story about one of her socialite friends. Sir Harold smiled kindly, and feigned interest in the boring intricacies of the story, but he was now getting angry, for he could hear the pathetic, whining, antipodean voice echoing up from the lawn.
He kept his face controlled, but inside, the rage was seething. How dare it, he thought. How dare it interrupt this beautiful social occasion with its sexual, uncultured voice? He smiled at Amelia encouragingly, inviting her to continue her story, but he took an opportunity to peer away, catch the eye of Henderson the butler, who was circling the party, silently refreshing drinks.
Henderson knew Sir Harold's expressions by heart. This one meant 'come here immediately'. Henderson, with the practiced skill of the professional servant, moved quickly across the room to Sir Harold's side.
The master interrupted the flow of Amelia's anecdote 'Ah, Excuse me my dear, we must continue this wonderful story later. I'm neglecting my guests. Henderson, have coffee served in the main lounge' the ambassador said, in the same moderated tone.
'Yes Sir'
'Oh, and Henderson, firstly, deal with that, would you'. He pointed with his cigar across the grass towards Caleb.
'Right away, sir'
Caleb, begging and sobbing, did not hear the last exchange, but he was suddenly aware of a movement from the corner of his eye. Two black trousered legs, the legs of a disciplined, formal man, moving like a soldier marching across the lawn, purposeful, quick, no hesitation. Heading straight for him. Something dangled by the man's side. A thin, black thing like a wire, or a rope. Caleb could not prevent himself looking up. Henderson the butler marched directly towards him, a stone cold look on his face, a vicious, stubby whip by his side. Caleb squealed in fear, and tried to stand, but his body was cramped from kneeling so long in the same position
'No, please... don't' he managed to squeak, but it was too late. The butler came to a stand, a few feet away, raised the whip, and, without a moment's hesitation, brought it cracking down in a practiced swipe, across Caleb's shoulder blades. Caleb screamed his lungs out and collapsed onto the lawn. This was ten times the pain of the leather strap - he felt he might pass out straight away. He saw the arm raising for a second strike, and he rolled over, protecting his back, ineffectually trying to shield himself from the blows. Big mistake. Another blow, this time across the chest, and the already sore skin exploded in lightning bolts of pure pain. He rolled over again, the agony across his already beaten Pecs and nipples literally unbearable. Another blow, this time across the buttocks, the flimsy material of the Speedos providing no protection from the blow. A final swipe, aimed for the lower back, but mainly catching Caleb across his bound wrists, and the assault was finished.
Caleb would not be talking any more, he could now only whimper and cry, the muscle boy broken like a disobedient dog, whimpering and cowering at its owner's feet. His eyes were full of tears, and he stared blurrily across the lawn towards the veranda, where the blurry silhouetted figure of his tormentor stood, the red glow of a cigar the only pinprick of light on his face. The other party goers had stopped talking, and were staring at the scene. It was clear that some of them were appalled and horrified. It was also clear that some of them were enjoying the show. The elderly major was gripping the handrail around the veranda, face bright red, eyes bulging as if he was about to have a heart attack, a prominent bulge forming in his tuxedo trousers. Henderson stood over the boy, panting from the sudden exertion. The rain had stopped now, and apart from the genteel music, there was hardly a sound but the drips of water running off the veranda roof.
The ambassador took a long draw from the cigar. 'Henderson' he said, his voice as plain and moderated as ever. 'Lady Margaret was concerned that the roads may have been washed out. After you have served coffee would you go to the gatehouse and ask Carlos to walk down the lane, and see if there are any obstructions'.
'Certainly Sir. I'll attend to it immediately'
The ambassador turned back to Amelia. He noted that the girl was staring across at the prone body, breathing heavily, and a fine shine was visible on her skin. She was aroused by the sight, he thought. He grimaced in mild distaste. He did not approve of respectable ladies becoming aroused at the sight of the body of a common slave. It was not seemly.
He decided to bring her attention back. 'Tell me more of your story, my dear' He said.
And the party resumed, as Henderson picked up the limp body from the grass and dragged it away.
To be continued...

Interview: Tips & Advice
"Read up on the strategy of the firm; be prepared to talk about our sector focus and key growth markets. Think about your previous experience in order to back up your answers to competency questions. Be commercially aware. This doesn't mean reading the Financial Times back to front everyday, but having a general interest in business and current events that law firms like S&S and our clients may be dealing with."Second year trainee, London
"The process consists of an application form, online tests, video interview, and an assessment centre. The best advice for the interview and assessment centre is to just be yourself."First year trainee, London
"Assessment process consists of a competency interview, a written exercise and a document exercise. You will do some group exercises to assess your ability to work in a team with other people and to reach group conclusions."First year trainee, London
"Research the firm well and make sure you can answer questions specifically about Simmons & Simmons rather than just any top 20 law firm. Ensure you make no spelling mistakes; do not give them an excuse to bin your application. Try to show your personality."First year trainee, London
"Understand commercial trends and watch the news. Most importantly, know what it is that you are interested in. I feel like candidates who have interests outside of law and can talk about them confidently have a better edge than candidates who only focus on commercial awareness and the law in general."First year trainee, London
"The assessment day consists of an interview, a written exercise, a commercial exercise and a team exercise. I would prepare by looking on the firm's website and trying to understand its strategy and strengths."Second year trainee, London
"Competency interviews, written exercise, document and group exercises. Honestly, the main thing for the interviews is to relax and be yourself. The firm is looking for talented people, but talented people who fit with the culture and would get on well in the firm. Best to just be yourself, and have a chance to figure out if that is you."First year trainee, London
"I would advise that people research our key sectors as this is something that we strongly believe in and orientate the firm around. If you can demonstrate your interest in these sectors and explain how you would fit into the firm's strategy, that will stand you in good stead. Read broadly around the trends affecting our key sectors/main clients, as well as recent deals that the firm has published."Second year trainee, Hong Kong
"Read the financial press, in particular the Financial Times and the Economist. You don't have to understand every aspect of the developments they cover, but it will help immensely if you can become familiar with the language and concepts they describe. In addition, read up about the firm and its core businesses, culture, plans and rivals."First year trainee, London
"Before the interview make sure you understand what Simmons & Simmons is about and that you are able to clearly show why you want to undertake a training contract here."Second year trainee, London
"Ensure you know what the firm is looking for in its trainees. Learning examples of when you have demonstrated the specific competencies referred to throughout the grad recruitment webpages is a good way to demonstrate this."First year trainee, London
"The best way to prepare is to brush up on your commercial awareness and your knowledge of the firm."First year trainee, London
"Before the interview read the FT and re-read your application form several times."First year trainee, London
"For me the process consisted of an application form, a Watson Glazer test, and an assessment day. Be genuine throughout - there is no one type of person they are looking for. Read the FT and be prepared to discuss any gaps in your CV."First year trainee, London
"When it comes to the interview, have a general knowledge of the workings of the City, make sure you have answers/examples ready for competency questions."Second year trainee, London
"Think about the sector focus and how it is integrated into Simmons. Make sure you think about the business angles as Simmons is big on ensuring their lawyers don't just know the law, but also understand the commercial impact and practicalities of applying the law."Second year trainee, London
"Do your research and have a good reason for applying to Simmons & Simmons."Second year trainee, London
"The best preparation is knowing your CV. Additionally, look at financial papers and try to get a feel for how the financial system works, at the very least know what a bond/a fund is."Second year trainee, London
"Actually research the firm and why it is different (e.g. focus on funds, client sector, MBA). A lot of candidates have a very superficial knowledge which is easy to spot."Second year trainee, London
"Research how Simmons & Simmons sees itself as different. Think of a number of challenging or interesting situations you have been in to answer the competency questions."First year trainee, London
"Come prepared with your own questions that show you have an interest in the firm. Try to strike up a genuine dialogue with one of your interviewers, (by knowing something about their department or a department you're interested in for example), this will help make an impression and break the ice. Know the firm's unique selling points and have your own personal reasons as to why those unique points are why you want to join the firm."First year trainee, London
"Be sure to read the business news in the lead up to the interview and be able to comment on a story that caught your interest if asked."Second year trainee, London
"Make sure you can answer competency questions in a well structured manner and be aware of the latest news and general trends in financial/legal press."First year trainee, London

About: Bedford Hospital South Wing Bedford Hospital South Wing Bedford MK42 9DJ
Posted by Anonymous
After being admitted to A+E, I was first of transferred to the AEU which is a strange twilight zone with a mixture of all kinds of patients. Very difficult to get any sleep due to an elderly gentleman that was admitted late at night that was reliving the World War. Also hard because I was put in the same bay as the one my dad was in, the last time I saw him alive. Transferred after a visit to the endoscopy unit to Harpur ward. Staff on this ward excellent - apart from one particular night sister that seemed to find it a problem that I needed a blood transfusion and insisted on shouting my name all over the ward at 10 o'clock at night! At least I didn't see much of her for the rest of that night or others after as she seemed to disappear after a certain time until just before handover time. Apart from that, the rest of the staff were excellent - caring and helpful however short staffed they were. Considering it was the first time I had been an inpatient in this country, I know that any fear i previously had have gone, should I need to be there again!
Response from Bedford Hospital South Wing 2 years ago
Hello and thank you for sharing your experience of the care you recevied recently at Bedford Hospital. Firstly, I am pleased to hear that you found our staff on Harpur Ward friendly and caring and that they helped to allay any fears that you previous had. I will make sure that your kind comments are passed on to the team. I am sorry, however, to hear about your name being called out across the ward by one member of staff and I will make sure this is also fed back to the team. Best wishes and thanks again.

Our Pretties
If you ask people who know me to tell you something about me they will all tell you different but pleasant things. My colleagues will tell you that I am a responsible and hard working person. My friends will tell you that I am a funny, sociable and nice lady with a good sense of humor. They also can tell you that I know how to relax and have a good rest after hard work. Some of them will tell you that I am a person with lot of ideas in my head and lot of positive and sincere emotions in my heart. My parents can tell you that I am a good and loving daughter. And my daughter can tell you that I am a loving and caring mother. But don't think that I am ideal. Nobody is perfect. I just try to be who I am all the time. And I am very proud of having such good people around me. I think that means too much for everyone and can say lot of about a person. I hope if you come here one day you will like my friends and relatives, and people who surround me.
Everyone has his own hobbies and interests. As for me I am interested in fashion and cloth design. I dreamed of becoming a cloth designer in childhood. I liked to draw and imagine different styles of clothes. And now when I have free time I sit and draw the new styles of clothes. Fashion is a good thing, and I think every lady should be fashionable in this or that way. Also I like outdoor activities. There is nothing like having picnics, BBQ, walks and rest at the beach. I like water very much. I dream to see the ocean with my own eyes. It is a big pleasure for me to spend my free time with my daughter. You can't imagine how funny she is and how nice you can have the time with her. She is like a sun ray for me. I am not a person who prefers passive life style. I think we should lead an active life and be in moving all the time.
Need partner: 27 - 55 years old
When I was a girl I always dreamed of having a husband like my father. I wanted to have a man who would value the family, me like his wife and the mother of his children. I wanted him to value me like a woman who would need his love and care, passion and tenderness, sincerity and honesty. Times goes by. But I still dream to have a man who knows how to love and take care about his lady. I am looking for a man who believe in the family values like I do. I need a man who will treat my heart and soul like his own, who will never hurt me. I hope I will find a man who will laugh with me, who will cry with me, who will live with me, who will be my second half. I hope we will be a perfect match who can live together and can't live without each other.

A renowned journalist shows us France as never before seen, and the view will chill and electrify anyone who loves - or loves to hate - the country that not only defined culture but gave us the word itself.
The traditional leader in the arts, letters, cuisine, and fashion, France embodies universally admired ideals of political expression and personal freedom. But France's heritage, combined with its glorious history, has also created delusions of grandeur - the Gaullist conviction that France will always be an "exception". France today is in crisis. High unemployment, an archaic economic system, a self-selecting governing class unable to handle serious problems, and a debilitating nostalgia for things past are dragging it closer to the brink at the very moment of European unification.
Urgent, convincing, and unsparing, this eye-opening look at the world's most complex, seductive, and sometimes infuriating country will give even the most knowledgeable Francophile plenty to think about.

Alberta judge upholds ban on pro-life bus ad claiming it could cause 'psychological harm'
A judge in Alberta, Canada, upheld the decision by the City of Grande Prairie to ban a pro-life banner from its buses because they might cause "psychological harm" to women who have obtained an abortion in the past.
The advertisement showed images of a baby at seven weeks and at 16 weeks gestation. Next to images is an empty circular frame representing abortion. The images included the captions: "growing," "growing," and "gone." The banner also contained the message, "Abortion kills children," along with website address of the advertiser, the Calgary-based Canadian Centre for Bioethical Reform (CCBR).
Justice C.S. Anderson noted that the website contained messages such as "Now is the time to put an end to the slaughter. Now is the time to look evil in the face and say, enough. Now is the time to join together, and lend our voices to those who had theirs brutally taken from them."
"These are strong statements that vilify women who have chosen, for their own reasons, to have an abortion; they are not merely informative and educational," the judge remarked, as reported by Life Site News.
Anderson said that the city "reasonably" balanced the free speech rights of the advertiser with the policy of providing a "safe and welcoming" space for passengers and passersby.
Carol Crosson, legal counsel for CCBR, said that the decision leaves virtually all free speech unprotected. She said that CCBR is considering an appeal.
Joyce Arthur of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada hailed Anderson's decision and said that the ruling should encourage other communities to reject such advertisements.
The same banner is expected to be displayed on buses in the City of Peterborough in March this year. CCBR took the city to court last year after it rejected the advertisement due to concerns that it would affect ridership on its buses, according to the Peterborough Examiner.
The Ontario Superior Court of Justice stated that the decision infringed upon CCBR's freedom of expression while noting in its ruling that the city had agreed to run the advertisement.
Alan Barber, an associate city solicitor for Peterborough, noted that the city had no policy outlining standards that advertisers need to meet when CCBR first submitted the banner.

FORTIS offers career education and training programs in the nursing, healthcare, medical, dental, business, information technology, skilled trades, massage and cosmetology career fields.
Nursing programs are filled with variety, and the job opportunities that come from completing one are endless. However, to be a nurse, you have to find the right school and apply! First, ask yourself how much time — and money — you want to put into school; once you do that, you'll be well on your way to one of the best professions in the nation!
Two levels of nursing are available to you: Practical nursing (PN), sometimes referred to as licensed practical nursing (LPN), or licensed vocational nursing (LVN) — the fastest way to get into nursing. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the national median salary for practical nurses is $41,540 annually. Not only is this great pay, there is also a solid demand for PNs. The BLS reports that the number of PN jobs is expected to increase by 25 percent into 2022.
According to the BLS, some of the job duties of PNs include:
Job growth for registered nurses (RN) may be lower at 19 percent, but that is still well above the 14 percent national average for all U.S. jobs combined, reports the BLS. As a RN, you could earn a median annual salary of $65,470 nationally and would have a wider scope of practice and number of responsibilities. The BLS lists a sampling of your potential duties:
It is critical that you understand the education and training involved in being a nurse. Practical nurses attend two semesters of training that includes class and field work; the difference is that you will earn a diploma and must pass the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX).
If you opt to become an RN, you have two educational pathways available: You can pursue an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing (BSN). An associate degree requires you to attend a two-year nursing program. Sometimes, certain prerequisites are required in things like algebra, English and biology. Comparatively, a BSN is a four-year, liberal arts degree that includes multidiscipline learning and a more intense focus on nursing theory and concepts. Both PN and RN programs require extensive supervised field practice and require you to pass the NCLEX. Whether you are a PN or RN, you must have a license to practice in all 50 states.
To be a nurse means being one of America's most trusted professionals. You'll be able work within a wide range of populations and settings. Once you decide to be a PN or RN — and whether you want to pursue an associate or bachelor's degree — the rest comes down to hard work, devotion and flexibility.

First of all.. i dont know the different between forum and discussion.. i do know threads vs. posts.
Im talking about the main discussion like screenshot below: Is it "forum" or "discussion"? Lets just call it a"Discussion"
My questions:
1. Can i create thousands "Discussion"? But i don't want to show all of them on the mainpage.. that would be long scrolling-down. Only top 20 selected/popular celebrities shows up on the mainpage.
How to manage this since there's no pagination on the mainpage?
2. Can each "Discussion" have different header image?? lets say.. Shakira discussion has the header-image of shakira.. Britney Spears Discussion has the header-image of britney.. and so on.
3. Anyone can read posts/threads, but before posting into discussion.. a member must be a fan of that particular celeb/discussion..
Are these features already available in the core? Or should i hire xenforo developer? thx

Are Linux users cheap?
I have had TONS of conversation with Windows/Mac users saying that most of the people who use Linux as their primary OS are either cheap or total geeks.

Report summaryThe country's declining conventional gas supplies has highlighted the potential role of unconventional gas in Indonesia's future energy mix. New conventional gas reserves in the region are insufficient to replace production and are becoming increasingly expensive to develop, e.g. deepwater. The government has decided to proceed with multiple floating LNG regasification terminals – in Java and Sumatra, to help meet rising gas demand on both islands.

Michael Whitaker Smith, 7 October 1957, Kenova, Wayne County, West Virginia, USA. One of the most popular contemporary Christian artists, Smith, the son of an oil refinery worker and caterer, became a Christian aged 10. However, after his support network broke up following high school, Smith was drawn to drink and drugs. Those travails have provided much of his subject matter since. By 1978 he had moved to Nashville to work as a songwriter, a time that included a short period in the band Rose. He was still using drugs, but in October 1979 was born again after an emotional breakdown. He auditioned for the Christian band Higher Ground, and toured with them as a keyboard player. In 1981, he secured a contract to be staff writer for Meadowgreen Music, where he wrote gospel hits for Kathy Trococoli, Bill Gaither, Amy Grant and Sandi Patty. He joined Grants touring band in 1982 and released his debut solo album the following year.

About Us
UPDATE: The Oregon Chorale has chosen its next Artistic Director. Jason Sabino will begin conducting the Chorale in Fall 2016. Please check back to find more information as it becomes available. Welcome, Jason!
Our artistic director and founder Bernie Kuehn retired in June 2015 after thirty years, and we knew there would be big shoes to fill. To choose a new artistic director, the Chorale Board appointed a selection committee in fall 2014, made up of members of the Chorale and Hillsboro arts community. The committee announced the position and put applicants through a detailed application process. After reviewing the applications and conducting interviews in February and March 2015, the committee narrowed the group down to three finalists. Each finalist served as artistic director for one concert over the 2015-2016 season, choosing the music, leading rehearsals, and directing performances. In June 2016, the Chorale chose the new artistic director, who will begin in fall 2016. Click on a finalist's name below to learn more. The Chorale had the pleasure of working with the following finalists:
Fall 2015
Concerts: December 5 & 6, 2015

Concerts: March 5 & 6, 2016

The Australian Threat Unit, or ATU, is an Australian government organization set up to research, combat, and contain the Inhuman Outbreak.
In late 2015 several individuals across the world underwent Terrigenesis during the Inhuman Outbreak. The result of this process was a new subspecies of humanity known as the Inhumans. Inhumans, who were unaware of their genetic potential for superhuman abilities, were surprised at their sudden development of abilities and as such, did not know how to control their powers. This led to many incidents across the globe as their enhancements manifested. The inadvertent destruction caused by Inhumans, along with public xenophobia, uncertainty of HYDRA involvement, and government security concerns about extraterrestrials, led to the formation of national containment units worldwide. These units, such as the ATCU and ATU, were tasked with countering and containing the outbreak, along with collecting Inhuman specimens.
As part of their mission, the ATU had captured an Inhuman by the name of Eden Fesi, who was held by the organization and subjected to medical and military experimentation. The actions of the ATU were highly classified, and only top officials within the Australian government were aware of their clandestine operations. One such person, Ellen King, attended a political symposium in Taiwan to coordinate a global response to the Outbreak. King traveled to the event with a document outlining the classified details of Fesi's incarceration.[1]

The History of propaganda
Propaganda is today most often used in reference to political statements, but the word comes to our language through its use in a religious context. The Congregatio de propaganda fide ("Congregation for propagating the faith") was an organization established in 1622 by Pope Gregory XV as a means of furthering Catholic missionary activity. The word propaganda is from the ablative singular feminine of propogandus, which is the gerundive of the Latin propagare, meaning "to propagate." The first use of the word propaganda (without the rest of the Latin title) in English was in reference to this Catholic organization. It was not until the beginning of the 19th century that it began to be used as a term denoting ideas or information that are of questionable accuracy as a means of advancing a cause.
Origin and Etymology of propaganda

The Battle against HIV/AIDS
Volume 1, Issue 1
Getting rid of STD's is not this easy...
T-Cell Count: 4 *Warning: T-Cell count Low*
Herputron: 34
Chlamydia Empire: 52
Human immunodeficientron V: 115
John Doe's Battle with AIDS
John Doe a 19 year old male, has been interviewed upon his recent discovery of contracting AIDS. He did not find out until he got one of his routinely check ups. The doctor has told him his T-Cell count was too low and unhealthy for a young man. They decided to give him an HIV antibody test. Appalled by such a rash conclusion he found it unnecessary at first. But the doctors insisted for his sake. John Doe gave in and took the test, and came out positive. Over time of John carrying the HIV virus, his T-Cell count has decreased. T-Cells in your body serve as white blood cells, they get rid of foreign object in the body. When a carrier of HIV gets a low enough T-Cell count, he/she is considered to have AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome). All John can recall to is his Senior Prom, last year. That is the last time he had sex, but he wore protection. But how might he have obtained the disease? The solution was that he obtained it through having contact with the carrier's saliva. He must have not thought about the consequences. "I just thought it was another party, and since it was Senior prom, I wanted to have some fun, so I did. I thought I was invincible that night. I was wrong..." John Doe said to our interviewer, Jane Doe.
