Devil on the Run
"Fucking hell! That bitch!" I slammed the phone down on its desk receiver, before kicking the chair across the room, sending it skittering loudly into the bookcase.
My open office door filled with people trying to find out what happened. Emmett, my business partner and best friend, pushed his way through the crowd. Shooing everyone away, he closed the door on their gawping faces. Barely acknowledging his presence, I pulled out my cell phone and dialed her number. Disconnected. I should have fucking known. Scrolling through the numbers, I tried her best friend. When the call went straight to voicemail, I unleashed a tirade, ending with a demand that either she or the feckless bitch that I was engaged to return my call immediately. I dropped the phone on my desk and contemplated my next move.
"Jazz, dude, what the hell is going on? You're screaming and throwing shit around the room like a madman. What the fuck happened to that office decorum you were preaching about when Rose and I were making out in the copy room?"
"Okay, first of all – just fucking gross. It's bad enough that you're dating my sister; I did NOT need to walk in on you two bumping uglies on the Xerox machine. Second, I just got a call from the bank that they could not put through all of my scheduled payments because my bank account is fucking empty." I paused in the furious pacing I'd been doing since I began talking and collapsed into one of the leather armchairs near the recently maligned bookcases. "Empty as in wiped the fuck out, not a dime left of the $50,000 I put in there just yesterday. That - that…fucking deceitful bitch that I trusted with everything I had went in and cleaned it all out first thing this morning."
Dropping my hand from where I'd been dragging it through my hair while I spoke, I knocked something off the table next to me. Leaning forward, I saw an overturned picture frame. I picked it up; studying the image it held, before throwing it across the room with a vicious growl. The glass shattered, the frame cracked in half, and the picture inside fluttered to the floor. When Emmett moved to pick up the shards of glass and wood, I yelled at him to leave it.
"Okay, Jazz, take a deep breath. First of all, did you cover things with the bank? Do you need to pull some money from the business account? I'll call and give the approval for it, if you need me to."
The small recording company I'd bought from a bank foreclosure was our baby, the crown jewel in my own mini empire. Emmett, my sister Rosalie, and I had busted our asses to bring it back to life and expand it into one of the premiere recording studios in the South. Rosalie's business acumen and people skills helped us branch out into talent management, and together the three of us had created a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. We'd pissed a few people off and taken advantage of my street contacts to get us there, but we'd made a name for ourselves. We had a knack for finding the 'Next Big Thing' and it made all of us wealthier than we'd ever imagined, personally and professionally.
"No, no, the bank's all squared away. That was just the joint account. She didn't have access to anything else and there was plenty elsewhere. I had them cancel her debit card, too. Honestly, though, I don't think she'll try to use it. Fuck!" I jumped up and strode to the desk, pulling my wallet out as I did. Grabbing the phone, I called the first of five credit cards, tossing my cell and another one to Emmett. He looked at me quizzically, but quickly caught on to what I was asking him to do when I began to speak.
"Yes, I need to cancel my credit card immediately and check any transactions that were made on it since the last statement." As I rattled off the numbers on a card I'd rarely used, I heard Emmett on the phone with the Visa call center. "Yes, ma'am, this is Jasper Whitlock, my social security number is 622-51-5876. Yes, that's my current address and phone." Scribbling on a notepad, I wrote down everything Emmett would need to answer the questions at the other company, shoving it across the desk toward him. At the operator's next word, I slammed my hand onto the desk, fury consuming me again. "Are you frigging kidding me? I'm sorry, please pardon my language. Yes, the advances are fraudulent. No, I didn't authorize my fiancé to make them. Yes, I'm willing to press charges. No, I haven't filed a police report yet, but I will be shortly. Yes, I'll call you with the number as soon as I have one. Thank you for all your help."
Emmett, posing as me on my cell, was having the exact same conversation. I pulled another card out, going through the same routine. Emmett walked over and took the next card out of the pile I'd placed on the desk next to my wallet. Within 30 minutes, all five cards were cancelled and I started computing Maria's take. All told, between cash advances, purchases, and the bank account, she'd screwed me out of close to $150,000. Who knew what I'd walk into when I got home. I couldn't even call Mrs. Cope, my housekeeper; it was her day off.
"Jazz, what the hell is going on?" Emmett asked again. "We all just had dinner three days ago and everything seemed fine. Why the fuck did your fiancé clear out your bank account and max out the credit cards? Don't get me wrong, you know I never particularly liked her, but this is fucking crazy."
"I have no idea, Em, but I guaran-damn-tee I'm gonna find out." Pulling open the bottom drawer of my desk, I pulled out the black lock box that I'd stored there when we first moved into the building five years ago. "I need to get to the house. Can you handle my meetings this afternoon or reschedule them? Thank the fuck that Rolling Stone had to reschedule the photo shoot." Finally completing the combination, I opened the box and pulled out the Glock and ammunition clips that were lying inside.
"Yeah, I got the meetings covered," turning to look at me, Emmett's eyes widened. "What the hell is that for?"
"Whatever I need it for. Don't ask any questions, Em, then you won't have to lie about anything later." I shoved the gun into the back of my jeans, and then grabbed my wallet and phone. Pulling on my leather jacket, I adjusted it to make sure nothing was visible. Walking around my desk, I clapped Emmett on the shoulder. "Just keep shit covered here. I'll call when I can."
"But Jazz…" Not wanting to discuss anything further, I held up my hand to silence him.
Jerking open the door, I strode across the office to the waiting elevator, ignoring the wary stares around me. Once inside and the doors were closed, I called Jenks. Despite the fact that I'd distanced myself from the streets years ago, I'd been smart enough not to sever every tie. Jenks was one of those ties. He was a seedy-ass motherfucker, but damn effective for the shit I needed done. I quickly filled him in on the basics, and then told him what I needed. Within minutes he was searching Maria's phone records, email accounts, and social pages. I gave him her friend's cell number, too, and told him to track it. My gut instinct told me that wherever Maria was, so was Letty.
The elevator jolted to a stop in the parking garage. Stepping cautiously out into the open bay, I scanned the area around my car. Security or not, I wasn't taking any chances. Noticing nothing out of the ordinary, I slid into my crimson Ferrari F430. Turning the key, the powerful engine roared to life before setting into a vibrating purr. I shoved the stick shift into reverse and the little car lunged out of the parking space. Pulling out of the gate, I impatiently waited for a break in traffic, tapping a staccato rhythm out on the steering wheel. Once an opening appeared, I punched the clutch and gas, squealing into traffic, burnt rubber tracks left in my wake. I headed southeast toward home, dreading what I might find when I arrived.
Settling back against the cream leather seat, I felt the pressure of the Glock against my spine. Not all of my businesses had always been legit and I'd become accustomed a long time ago to having to protect what was mine. The suave businessman that people knew now was a far cry from the punk ass, street smart kid I'd been when I first dropped into Houston 10 years ago, a couple grand in my pocket, in search of a dream. A singer and guitarist, I was looking to make my way to LA or Nashville and break into the business. I didn't give a shit which city I ended up in, just so long as I got my shot. I quickly learned, though that there are no sure things in the music business and there were better ways to make it rich, while still keeping my finger in my favorite pie.
Just like any other big city, the back streets of Houston were full of every vice conceived by man and quite a few the Average Joe wouldn't think of. I had the right kind of charisma to parlay many of those vices into lucrative businesses. Gambling, prostitution, guns. Hell, I'd touched on everything but drugs. That shit destroyed lives. Besides, the boys that handled that shit were the real deal and I wasn't looking to die young. I'd also found, too, that if I stayed out of their most lucrative endeavors they tended to overlook my drabbling in the other ones. Carrying a gun became a necessary evil, though, and I'd had one ever since. It wasn't like the people I dealt with were using credit cards and that kind of cash made people act stupid.
When the money started getting good, I'd been wise enough to invest in legitimate enterprises. I bought up real estate, helped out faltering businesses, and eventually took over a few. I'd stepped on more than one set of toes in the process, toes that belonged to people who got mad, then got even. Getting out of shit became second nature, trusting people became impossible. Until Maria. Even then, I'd been smart. Jenks had checked her out and everything came back clean. Had he been wrong, or was she just a devious enough bitch to pull this shit on her own? What the fuck ever, I was going after her conniving ass and taking back what was mine.
Reaching the gated community I'd built my home in three years ago, I was waved through by Tyler, the security guard. I reduced my speed, mindful of the small parks filled with nannies and children that dotted the winding roads meandering throughout the upscale neighborhood. The road ended in a large secluded cul-de-sac, its only occupant the 5,000 square foot contemporary tri-level I called home. Approaching the closed gates with trepidation, I reached behind my back to grab the gun, resting it on my thigh while I entered the pass code for the security system. The gates glided open smoothly, and I flew up the circular drive, screeching to a stop outside the open garage doors. The Mercedes I'd bought Maria was nowhere to be seen.
I unlocked the door and quickly entered a second code on the control panel. The house was unnaturally silent, missing the music that typically drifted out of the integrated sound system. Shifting the weight of the gun in my hand, I inched toward my partially closed office door. I never left it like that; it was either open or shut no happy medium. I stood out of the way, stretching my arm forward, opening the door until it was flush against the wall. No one, but someone had been in there and I was pretty sure I knew who. I reached behind me, placing the gun back in my waistband. The desk top was in shambles, papers scattered everywhere. Walking around it, I found the drawers haphazardly open, clearly rifled through. Scraps of paper stood up, akimbo to the orderly piles I preferred. More paper littered the floor. What was she looking for? I kept nothing important at home, it was either at the office or secured on the flash drive on my keychain.
There could be only one thing she'd looked for access to. Scanning the room, my eyes shot to the wall where the Dali should have been hanging. The discarded painting lay on the floor, the wall safe it had hidden open, the small bundles of cash gone. I kept very little there, maybe $25,000. I shook my head at the incongruity and walked over to replace it, checking first that my personal items were still safe under the false bottom.
The painting she'd callously set aside was twenty times more valuable than the small haul she'd retrieved from behind it. I shouldn't have been surprised; she'd never appreciated my Madonna. Of course, she'd have been hard-pressed to find a buyer for it, even if she'd realized its value. Still, I had no clues as to what the fuck caused all of this in the first place. I'd always been generous. Her every need, hell every want, was hers at the swipe of a card and I'd paid the bills without a word.
Certain that Maria had cleared out hours earlier, I gave up on subterfuge and strode through the house. The rest of the downstairs was undisturbed. There were assorted art pieces and figurines throughout the house and all were accounted for. I took the steps two at a time, already knowing I'd find her things cleared out of our room. She didn't disappoint me. She'd emptied the closet and the small room safe that had protected the many pieces of jewelry I'd purchased for her over the last eighteen months. Tossed on the unmade bed, like an afterthought, was a piece of note paper.
Snatching it up, I was distracted by my ringing cell phone. Checking the screen and seeing Jenks' name flash, I hit the button to receive the call.
"What've you got?"
"You ain't gonna like it, boss. That Letty chick has been playing go between with Maria and a certain Laurent Devareux. That Letty, she don't delete nothing. All the emails were there, just ripe for the finding."
"Fucking hell! What the hell is up with your intel that you missed that connection?"
"Don't matter none, boss. She played both of you. Letty's cell has been blowing up with messages from him demanding to know where they are. Looks like your girl and her friend done skipped town on both y'all."
"She took the Mercedes. Can you trace it's GPS?"
"You know if it's electronic, I can trace it. I got a hit off Letty's phone before she shut it off. They're bout an hour from the Arizona border. Devareux is here in Houston, based on the tower his phone was hitting off. They's running, boss."
While he talked, I read the piece of paper I clutched in my furious grip.
Thanks. It was fun while it lasted.
Livid, I roared into the phone, "No one plays me for a fool! I'm hitting the road now. Find them and call me, immediately!" Ending the call, I shoved the phone into my pocket. Throwing a change of clothes in a duffle bag, I thundered down the stairs, rage fueling my determination for vengeance.
Within the hour, I was speeding north on 45. I'd called Emmett, letting him know he'd have to manage without me for a few days. He pleaded with me to just report the car stolen and let the cops deal with her, but I cut him off, hanging up before he could finish. Jenks located the Mercedes just west of Wichita Falls. They had almost a seven hour head start on me and I knew I'd have to stop and sleep eventually. I told Jenks to stay on top of the tracking and keep me updated. I adjusted the seat, stowed the Glock in the glove box, turned up the radio, and followed the trail.
I'd managed to drive until 2 am before having to stop for sleep. Pulling into a truck stop north of Wichita Falls, I'd locked up the car and set the alarm in my phone. Five hours later I was back on the road, a cup of shitty coffee in my hand to chase down the sausage biscuit I'd picked up in the diner. Calling Jenks, I got an update on the Mercedes' location. It had been stationary since midnight outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Still seven hours ahead of me. Hopefully they'd keep their asses asleep for a few more hours. I dropped the phone into the holder on the dashboard and turned the radio back up, the miles ticking away on the odometer as the sun crept up the horizon behind me.
Eleven o'clock. I'd just hung up the phone with Jenks again. They were on the move and had been for about a half an hour, still heading west. A four hour gap. Frustrated, I pulled off the interstate west of Amarillo, a half hour shy of the state line. I needed to take a piss; I was starving and thirsty. Parking in front of a small restaurant, I exited the car and locked it.
A well-built brunette sitting on a cement buttress near the side of the road caught my eye. She was dressed in cutoffs and well-worn cowboy boots, her legs long and tanned. The white t-shirt she wore was knotted in the back, a sliver of skin peeking out between its hem and the waistband of the shorts. A denim jacket was casually tossed over the guitar case and bag resting at her feet. She leaned back on her hands, her face turned up into the sun, eyes hidden by a pair of dark shades. A simple black cowboy hat rested low on her forehead, almost covering the dark brown hair underneath. A beat-up truck pulled up and she talked to the driver, before grabbing her ear and hopping in the passenger's seat.
After a quick burger and checking my directions, I filled up the tank and hit the road again. Crossing the border into New Mexico, I saw someone trudging down the side of the road. Drawing closer, I saw it was the brunette from earlier. I pulled to the side of the road in front of her, waiting for her to catch up to the car. When she did, she leaned in the window.
"Need a lift?" I asked, pushing my sunglasses to the top of my head.
Good Lord, she was fucking gorgeous up close. She wore no make-up. A smattering of freckles danced across her slightly upturned nose, her lips were a deep rose, the bottom one slightly fuller, almost lush in its plumpness. Her unfettered breasts strained the snug t-shirt, her nipples pebbled underneath. I dragged my eyes back to her face, unable to see her eyes under the shades.
She gave the car and me the onceover before answering, "Where you headed?"
'Right now, Albuquerque. I don't know yet from there. Where you looking to go?"
She looked at me thoughtfully before making a decision. Opening the door, she dropped her bag and guitar behind the seat.
"I'm working my way toward LA. Can I ride with you as far west as your going?"
"Fine by me." I checked traffic and slid the car back out onto the highway. Dropping my shades back in place, I extended my hand toward her. "Jazz Whitlock from Houston."
"Bella Swan from Oklahoma City."
"What's in LA, Bella Swan, that you left Oklahoma City?"
"Hopefully my future. What's in Albuquerque?"
"Someone who made a fatal mistake in judgment." Looking to change the subject, I jerked my head toward the back of the car. "I'm guessing you're a musician. You any good?"
"So I've been told. I guess I'll find out in LA." She pushed her sunglasses off her face, her fingers nervously tapped on her leg as she turned in the seat to face me. "So is there gonna be trouble when you find whoever it is you're looking for? I really don't need to get tangled up with the cops."
"Not if I get back what was stolen from me. Why are the cops a problem, you a runaway?" She didn't look that young, but hell these days who could tell.
"Hell no, but having to deal with the cops is a scene I don't want to get involved in. We all got shit in our past, you know? Let's just say that my bank account wasn't always as full as it needed to be when I wrote checks. Was something important stolen?"
Glancing over at her, I saw thinly veiled excitement dancing in her warm bourbon colored eyes. She shot me a quixotic smile and lifted a finely arched eyebrow, waiting for my answer. My phone rang before I could answer her. It was Jenks with a status update on my wayward fiancée. While he talked, I watched my passenger out of the corner of my eye. She moved the seat all the way back and reclined it slightly. Adjusting her body, she stretched her arms over her head, while her toes pushed toward the floorboard. My eyes travelled up her body, admiring the expanse of legs disappearing into the frayed cuffs of her shorts. The hem of her shirt had rode up even further and I saw a slight sparkle from a navel piercing. The fabric pulled tighter across her breasts and my eyes were drawn to the darkened areolas visible through the thin fabric. In response my dick tightened underneath the constraining fabric of my jeans. Luckily her eyes were closed and she missed my blatant perusal and my body's reaction.
Shifting in my seat to ease the pressure, I focused back on my conversation. My jaw tensed as Jenks relayed the text messages he'd intercepted from Letty's cell phone. Apparently they were meeting someone in Arizona. Jenks had traced the number back and had a name for me, too… James Harris. I couldn't fucking believe it. James was her ex-boyfriend, the one she'd supposedly left because he was abusive and had put her in the hospital one too many times. My temper raged. I told Jenks to keep tracking her and get me everything he could about Harris.
Disconnecting the call, I dropped the phone back in the holder and punched the dash. Bella jumped in her seat and I apologized, still cursing Maria under my breath.
"Girl trouble?" she asked, a hint of amusement in her voice.
"Yeah, you could say that." I pulled my glasses down and pushed my hair back from my face. My voice harsh from anger I continued, "If that's what she wants, that's fucking fine, but I'll be damned if I'm financing her shit."
Bella became silent. I looked over to see her gnawing on her bottom lip.
"What? I can see you want to say something, just say it."
She contemplated her choice of words before answering, "I'm just thinking it must be a shit ton of money if you're going to chase her across three states to get it back."
'It's enough. She also stole one of the cars from my garage. She's free to leave if she wants, but she's not gonna make me look like a fool in the process. I'm nobody's fucking puppet."
We sat in silence after my outburst, then Bella spoke softly, "I seriously doubt you're anyone's puppet."
Not answering, I turned up the radio and the next couple of hours flew by. Bella dropped her hat back on her bag before she fell asleep and I looked over frequently. Her shirt slid up more when she shifted against the seat and my fingers itched to trace the delicate curve of her waist. Her nipples budded again under the heat of my gaze. The line of her neck was graceful and the pulse fluttered under her skin, begging to be kissed. Her tongue snaked out to moisten her lips and I groaned to myself at the thought of it gliding up the erection pushing against my zipper. Reaching her eyes, I was startled to find them open.
"Like what you see?" she asked, her hand reaching over to ghost across the taut muscles of my thigh. My groin tightened even more in response. She laughed lightly. "I guess so."
My eyes held hers for a moment before breaking away. Her hand slid higher, the sides of her fingers pressing against my now rock hard dick. I cleared my throat, my voice thick with desire when I spoke. "Careful, darlin'. You might get more than you bargained for."
She unbuckled her seatbelt, leaning over to whisper in my ear, "Do you know the best way to forget a woman who's left you?" I shook my head, not trusting my voice to speak when she palmed my crotch, her fingers moving to the button at my waist. She flicked it open while answering her own question, "You fuck another one." Her tongue traced the shell of my ear before her lips moved to kiss my neck.
I groaned as she dragged down the zipper and then slid her fingers inside to find the fly on my boxer briefs. I drew my breath in sharply when her skin touched mine. Her hand gripped my shaft, drawing it out of the opening and gliding her little fist to the head. Her thumb pressed across the slit, spreading the droplets of pre-cum around the head. She pumped up and down my length, before her head dropped to my lap and her hot little mouth took me inside. My hand moved to push her hair out of the way, tangling in the curls. I watched her checks hollow in around me and moaned at the combination of the tight suction and the feel of my dick slipping down her throat. She swallowed around me and I fought the urge to thrust into her mouth. I tightened my free hand on the steering wheel, my knuckles whitening as I used the other hand to hold her hair, trying to focus on the road as my body tensed under her ministrations.
"Fuck, Bella! Your mouth is so fucking hot!" I tugged her hair in warning, "Baby, I'm gonna cum." Instead of lifting her head, she took me deep into her throat again, her throat opening to take me in and I let go, shooting hot streams into her greedy little mouth. She swallowed it all, licking and sucking her way back to the tip, swirling her tongue around the head to ensure she'd gotten it all.
I pulled the car into an abandoned rest area, driving to a secluded corner behind a storage building before parking. Pulling on her hair, I brought her face to mine, my tongue diving onto her mouth. I tasted the saltiness of my release on her tongue as mine tangled with it, stroking it. My hand groped her breast, teasing the pebbled nipple with my fingers. My other hand slid up the smooth skin of her thigh, teasing under the frayed denim edge, seeking her core. There was no barrier when I found the moist heat and I slid my finger into the soft folds, rubbing against her clit. She moaned into my mouth, lifting her hips to meet my questing finger. I slid lower, my finger slipping inside of her. Gliding in and out, I added another one. My cock throbbed to life again and suddenly touching her was not enough. I withdrew my hand and unfastened my seatbelt, reaching behind me to open the door. She whimpered at the loss and her eyes widened when I pulled my mouth away. Stepping out of the car, I walked to her side and opened the door.
"Take your boots off and get out."
She quickly complied. I closed the door and pressed the length of my body against hers, and captured her lips with mine again. Cupping her ass in my hands, I picked her up and carried her to the hood of the car. Laying her down, I pushed her shirt out of the way and kissed her navel before tracing a path to her breast with my tongue. Mouthing the darkened flesh, I laved my tongue over it and then kissed my way to the other. Bella's hands grasped my hair and her body arched up to meet my questing lips. My fingers fumbled with her shorts and jerked them down her body. My fingers plunged inside of her again, thrusting, twisting, stroking her until her walls clamped around them and she shuddered through her orgasm. Breaking my mouth away from hers, I stood up. I reached into my back pocket for my wallet and removed a condom. I shoved down my jeans and boxer briefs, fully releasing myself. I tore open the foil packet and rolled the thin latex down my length. I grabbed Bella's hip and pulled her down the car, her ass resting on the edge and her knee bent to steady her foot on the bumper. Pulling a leg over my shoulder, I slid my tip across her opening, collecting the moisture before thrusting deep inside her.
Driven by pure lust and anger, there was nothing gentle about our coupling. I plunged deep into her, drawing back out to the tip, before slamming balls deep again. Her nails dug into my ass, pulling me hard against her, meeting me thrust for thrust. With guttural moans and growls, we assaulted each other, our lips questing, teeth biting, driving each other closer to the edge. Bella wrapped her free leg around my waist, and screamed my name as she exploded around me. My fingers tightened on her hip, and I thrust deep one last time, my hips jerking convulsively as I emptied myself into the condom. I dropped my head to her chest, sweat pouring off of both of us. As my heart rate slowed and my breathing evened out, I withdrew and removed the condom, tossing it into the woods behind us. I kissed her again before speaking.
"I don't know about you, but I want a shower. Let's get out of here." I pulled my pants up and fastened them, while she did the same. Since she was shoeless, I carried her back to the car and settled her inside. Wordlessly, I drove away from the rest area, leaving the interstate at the next exit and pulling into the first hotel I found. Leaving her in the car, I went inside and secured a room. Coming back out, I found her standing next to the car, looking unsure of her next move. I walked over and pulled her bag out of her hand and grabbed mine out of the trunk.
"You weren't leaving, were you?" I asked, my eyes searching hers.
"Not if you want me to stay."
"Oh, darlin', I definitely want you to stay," I answered with a kiss, punctuating my continued desire for her by grinding my hips into hers. "I'm not nearly ready for you to go. Leave your guitar in the car."
Taking her hand in mine, we entered the hotel and crossed the lobby to the elevator. When the doors closed, I pinned her against the wall, my mouth plundering hers again. She pulled my hips against her in response and greedily sucked on my tongue. I groaned when the door opened at our floor and Bella laughed as I pulled her down the hall to our room. Unlocking the door, I pushed her inside ahead of me, slamming it closed behind us with my foot and tossing the bags near the bed. I drew her to me, kissing and nipping on her neck, stopping only to lift her shirt over her head. I walked her backward to the bed, my mouth on hers and her hands tangled in my hair. I worked her shorts down her hips, drawing them off as she fell to the mattress. Bella's tiny hands undid my jeans and I shoved them down, reaching into my bag to grab another condom and toss it on the bed. I grabbed her ankles and lifted her knees over my shoulders, my hands moving under her hips and lifting that sweet little slit to my mouth. My teeth grazed across the little bundle of nerves at her apex then I plunged my tongue into her molten core. Sucking, thrusting, lapping, my mouth and tongue worked her over while she writhed and screamed my name in ecstasy.
When she shuddered to completion, I let her hips down and laid her legs on the bed. Kissing my way up her abdomen, I smiled when Bella giggled as I hit a ticklish spot. Continuing the path upward, I pulled the fullness of her bottom lip into my mouth, sucking on it lightly before letting go. She leaned up into me, pushed me onto my back and straddled my hips.
"What about Arizona?" Bella asked, her teeth worrying her bottom lip. "Don't you need to find someone?"
I placed my thumb on her chin, pulling her lip free and leaned up to place a kiss on her delectable lips.
"I've been thinking, I'll report the car stolen and let the cops find her." I lost my train of thought as Bella worked the condom over my thick erection and lifted her body over mine, positioning my shaft at her opening. I let out a muffled growl when she slid down my length, nestling me deep inside her. I held her down tight against me, rotating my hips. Bella rocked against me, undulating over me, her walls clenching around me. Easing my grip, I let her lift away, and then rolled her to her back again. Thrusting deep into her again, burying myself to the hilt, I moved in and out, my thumb pressing on her clit. As our bodies shuddered, our orgasms washing over us again, I decided to forget about Maria and just be grateful that she's gone so far away.

text: GE Marine Engines announced that a GE LM2500+ combined gas turbine and steam turbine integrated electric drive system (COGES) plant powers Royal Caribbean International's Brilliance of the Seas cruise ship which recently made its maiden voyage. The Brilliance of the Seas will sail in Europe, the United States, Canada and the Caribbean. The 962-foot long ship has a passenger capacity of 2,100, is of 90,090 gross tonnage and has a cruising speed of 25 knots. Currently there are a total of six cruise ships in operation that use GE's LM2500+ COGES plant: two Royal Caribbean ships - Brilliance of the Seas and Radiance of the Seas -- and four Celebrity Cruises ships - Millennium, Infinity, Summit and Constellation. The COGES arrangement on each ship features two GE LM2500+ gas turbine-generators and one steam turbine-generator set for a total output of 59 megawatts. This electric drive configuration provides for both main ship propulsion as well as all onboard power generation. To date, the 12 LM2500+ gas turbines aboard the six ships have accumulated 75,000 hours in service. The COGES arrangement is a very efficient use of energy. Energy that otherwise would be lost in the gas turbine exhaust is captured by heat recovery steam generators to produce steam for steam turbine electric power generation and service steam use. The LM2500+ COGES ships operate on clean distillate fuel to significantly reduce emissions of most airborne pollutants and other particulates, as compared to a diesel electric power system operating on heavy fuel oil, which is customary for most cruise ships.

I cannot believe the license plate. It mirrors some of the stuff posted by idiots on Facebook. Duuuhhh!
Pic of the license plate here:
They caught Azmat? Check his refrigerator for a bear's head!
Brazen bastards! They know that B. Hussein Obama will coddle them.
Did they also have a "coexist" bumper sticker?
Aren't you glad these people all have mercedes, bmw's? Oh the horrors that they suffered in America!
I have no doubt that 60 plus percent of college students and 90 percent college faculty would have been silent if they had known. It appears the Johar's circle of relations was much smaller.
His Twitter 'buddies' are dropping like flies. Accounts being deleted.
Now are these the same ones taken in the other day at the apartment?
Blowtorch. Rusty pliers. Just sayin'.
Reinforcing my thought that the Daily News is not a credible news source -- it's a 2006 BMW 330Xi sedan, not an SUV. If they're going to copy photos from a story published elsewhere, at least they could bother to read the story.
The names suggest a similar to the two brothers' ethnic background, even though Diaz is generally Spanish.
This list of Kazakh names lists "Dias" as a popular name in Kazakhstan:
Диас (испанское) переводе с испанского языка слово диас означает - "солнце". Это имя популярно с 1963 года. Дано в честь руководителя восстания испанского народа Хосе Диаса.
Translated form Russian: Dias (Spanish) translated from the Spanish Language the word "dias" means -- "Sun". This name is popular since 1963. It is given to honor the leader of an insurrection of the Spanish people Jose Dias.
The same source lists "Azamat" (Arabic) meaning respected, venerable.
I could not find either name in the list of Chechen names, however, both names point to a traditionally Muslim ethnicity (Kasakhs are Muslim), despite Spanish-sounding Diaz. Neither name has any currency among ethnic Russians.
Boston.com also reported this but said they were arrested for immigration violations, whatever that means.
This story ran this morning, said they were arrested yesterday, then released. this is the story with the fake boston globe reporters who turned out to be russians
Lots of others
Good, get them all. I hope to God this is not the start of a wave of attacks....never know with those who wish to attack us on our home soil.
All Muslim America haters, stop immigration from Muslim countries, problem solved.
They were releasedthough...and I agree...how do these kids afford BMW'S?
OMG ! Close down the city! Stop the trains! Hide the women and children!

Dell has decided that 12-inch netbooks are too… well, too something, and has decided to retire the Dell Mini 12, Dell said in a blog post on Saturday. Good news, however, as the Mini 9 is back, after Dell originally retired it in early June.
"So, should you read anything into this as far as Dell's commitment to
the netbook space?" Dell blogger Lionel Menchaca wrote in a blog post. "Nope. It really boils down to this: for a lot of
customers, 10-inch displays are the sweet spot for netbooks."
Dell is offering the Mini 9 for $299, and the Dell Mini 12 is still being offered at Dell's factory outlet for what appears to be $569 or less.
So, we can draw one interesting conclusion from all this: at Dell, at least, the netbook stops and the notebook starts at 12-inch screens.

London Kensington Royal Albert Hall
The spectacle of these five skinny British boys coming face-to-face with a bona fide Louisiana redneck posse would be a thing to savour...
Some things just can't be explained. Why Gomez, who are from Southport, say 'May-hee-co' rather than 'Mexico', for example. Or why, in this humid fug of sweat and smoke, the two bespectacled frontmen's lenses never steam over. It's a curious business.
Still, even greater questions loom. Gomez have received abundant kudos for their debut album, Mercury Music Award notwithstanding. Their singles, however – bar the scratchily infectious shuffle of '78 Stone Wobble' – have offered little evidence of genius, merely the artificial gleam of a rehashed country-blues convention and lots of very bad singing. So what's the appeal?
As the 'On air' sign flashes, and Gomez hunker down into a chiming haze of feedback and atmospheric sonic mayhem that's more Six By Seven than Tijuana Brass, things sound very promising indeed. Then, they wheel out The Walrus. When Ben Ottewell opens his mouth to sing the big soulful sulk of 'Get Miles', it's like a boozed-up Wookie has been let loose.
Yet people are [I]moshing[/I]. There is a man with a moustache onstage, and the crowd is screaming with zealous delight. Surely, something is wrong. Part spaghetti western, part sticky New Orleans house band, Gomez are, above all, absurdly serious pastiche – and clearly, either you get it or you don't.
There are nice touches: the crackly wistfulness and sweet harmonies of 'Here Comes The Breeze', the electro blasts and horse-back bounce of 'Whippin' Piccadilly'. Gomez, to their credit, are [I]unusual[/I], working towards a similar idea of folksy fusion as Beck. But they are not the maverick [I]mariachi desperados[/I] they so desperately want to be. The spectacle of these five skinny British boys coming face-to-face with a bona fide Louisiana redneck posse would be a thing to savour.
Artifice outweighs invention, then, and ridiculousness puts a damaging spin on even their finest moments. Gomez's meticulously imagined stage-set construct of southern deltas and steamy nights with Tijuana ladies [I]is[/I] charming – but thumpingly unconvincing.

Sofia Vergara on SNL Was Sexy, As Expected
'Modern Family' bombshell Sofia Vergara hosted 'Saturday Night Live' last night and, of course, she emphasized her sexiness and cleavage.
'Modern Family' bombshell Sofia Vergara hosted 'Saturday Night Live' last night and, of course, she emphasized her sexiness and cleavage.
Gavin DeGraw made his 'Dancing With the Stars' debut last night. As a musician, you'd assume he already has some rhythm — and he does! But he lacks the confidence in his moves that would earn him rave reviews from the judges.
Jesus is everywhere these days. He's appeared on potato chips, an old rocking chair and even on a wet sock. Now it appears Jesus made a special guest spot on a woman's television, and it wasn't during a re-airing of Mel Gibson's 'Passion of the Christ.'
She's the tiny girl with the giant voice that leaves everyone tilting their heads and asking, "Where does that come from?" On a night when many contestants have faced criticism, Hollie Cavanagh had to follow contestant Joshua Ledet, who got a three-judge standing ovation and left Jennifer Lopez exclaiming that it was the best thing she's seen on 'American Idol' — ever.
Jermaine Jones' dismissal from 'American Idol' over outstanding arrest warrants was addressed on tonight's episode (March 14.) It cleared up a lot of questions and hopefully squashes the rumors that the gentle giant is some sort of violent criminal, as press reports began to indicate when news of his ouster broke.
We wonder what Simon Cowell has to say about this! Lana Del Rey, who has come under a ton of fire for her lackluster 'Saturday Night Live' performance, is slated to perform on 'American Idol.'
During a talk Sunday at the South By Southwest Festival, 'Family Guy' creator Seth MacFarlane confirmed that he's working on new episodes of the legendary cartoon series 'The Flintstones.' Yabba Dabba Doo!
The website STDCarriers.com is a website that allows people to anonymously post a person's name, location, photo and what STD's the individual has. Does the finger pointer need proof the individual has an STD? Nope. How do you get your name taken off the website? Only by sending in proof that you do not have the supposed STD. I don't want to scare you, but your name could be on this site.
Being a judge on 'The Voice' may be tough, but it doesn't hold a Zippo flame to being a fan on the edge of her seat while watching the battle rounds. On Monday, rockers Jordis Unga and Brian Fuente took the stage to make their duet delivery of Alanis Morissette's 'Ironic,' both incredibly anxious knowing only one would be allowed to stay by the time the episode drew to an end.
Every year it seems like the summer movie season starts earlier and earlier. You can argue that last year it started in April with the release of 'Fast Five.' This year, you can argue that it starts in March with the release of 'The Hunger Games.'

CATCH Me If You Can:
Effective Tools for Engaging with
and Responding to Texts "The student who is confused is frequently the one who understands enough to see a problem, a problem that less perceptive students have not yet noticed or arrived at."
-Sheridan Blau, The Literature Workshop Dirty, Rotten Thief "Without allowing students to interact with text in a meaningful way, we miss the chance of allowing them to see the value of what they are reading and to form new ideas about who they are and how they fit into the world in which they live." -Matt Brown, "I'll Have Mine Annotated, Please" Two Minutes: When you think of the word ANNOTATE, what comes to mind? What are different ways students can annotate? Circle unfamiliar words (then define them)
Acknowledge confusion (and wrestle with it)
Talk with text
Capture the main idea (main assertion)
Highlight important details "They will see [through student samples] that specific marginal comments recorded in these texts may vary from one reader to another and comments can change with the demands of the text, the purpose for the reading, and the background experiences of the reader. They can also see that there is no one right way to annotate but that there are patterns and categories that seem to be used by readers as they work to make sense of their reading."
-Carol Porter-O'Donnell, "Beyond the Yellow Highlighter" Precis = precise
You must choose your words carefully and arrange them skillfully to get the maximum about of meaning into minimum space. The Precis
4 sentences. No more. No less.
No quotes. Sentence 1. Author, genre, title, (date and source of publication for articles), active verb*, and a THAT clause containing the main assertion Sentence 2. Explanation of how the author develops this assertion and what he or she uses as evidence to support the assertion Sentence 3. Statement of the author's apparent purpose, followed by an IN ORDER TO phrase Sentence 4: Description of the intended audience and the relationship the author establishes with the audience via tone Time to Practice!!

Fresh Air: Bob Ojeda: Pitching through the Pain.
One thing I learned from this interview: It's said oh-HEE-da. Also, Terry Gross knows more about baseball than I would have expected.

Terry's had a number of baseball guests on over the years, including Doug Glanville when he was promoting his book. I don't know if she's a regular at Citizens Bank Park (her show is based at WHYY in Philadelphia), but she researches baseball at least as well as any other topic.2. GregD Posted: June 20, 2012 at 10:30 PM (#4162479)
she researches baseball at least as well as any other topicShe irritates me after a while but that's true. A friend who was on the show was staggered that she seemed to have really read his book, like really read it, whereas many other hosts don't even look at the jacket copy. After he asked if she always did that, and she said--truthfully or in exaggeration--that's my job.
My only complaint was that the interview ran 20 minutes.4. Forsch 10 From Navarone (Dayn) Posted: June 20, 2012 at 11:39 PM (#4162507)
Terry Gross is awesome. Heard a replay of an old Maurice Sendak interview she did that was amazing. I could listen to her interview an inanimate object.5. The Anthony Kennedy of BBTF (Scott) Posted: June 21, 2012 at 12:36 AM (#4162522)
Terry Gross is, at least from what I can tell, the best interviewer on air today. She does an excellent job reading up on her subjects and can make just about every interview interesting and penetrating.6. Steve Parris, Je t'aime Posted: June 21, 2012 at 08:51 AM (#4162588)
I think Gross is inconsistent. She does her homework but is too eager to show it off sometimes. She can also cut off her subjects or fail to follow with an obvious follow-up question. I dunno, just about everyone seems to like her. Maybe it's just the times I happen to catch her.7. Darren Posted: June 21, 2012 at 01:33 PM (#4162823)
Agree with 4 and 5: If someone's doing a better job with interviews, I haven't heard him/her.8. Darren Posted: June 21, 2012 at 01:53 PM (#4162849)
If you're a fan, you'll like this: Mike Birbiglia sends up her format as only he can.
Two times that she's really irritated me are interviews where she didn't really go after the subject the way I felt she should:9. My name is Votto, and I love to get blotto Posted: June 21, 2012 at 02:39 PM (#4162889)
--When she interviewed Jay Z, he defended the song 99 Problems, saying that he was talking about a drug-sniffing dog when he used the B-word. The critics of this song were ignorant haters, in his mind. I felt like Gross should have really pointed out that the only reason the song works, or even makes sense, is because of the other meaning of that word.
--With Justice Stevens, he was very protective of his fellow judges and she didn't really challenge him to move beyond his personal feelings.
RA Dickey was on the show not too long ago; I think it was the week his book came out.10. The Anthony Kennedy of BBTF (Scott) Posted: June 21, 2012 at 03:09 PM (#4162905)
I actually liked her interview with Jay-Z, I thought she did a pretty good job forcing him into that ridiculous, convoluted defense of his misogyny. She could have brought down the hammer even beyond that, but there's a certain level of class to leaving someone who's lying to your face clearly aware that they're making a fool of themselves with their justification.11. Darren Posted: June 21, 2012 at 03:43 PM (#4162923)
I mean, Jay-Z makes some good music, but the ####### simply doesn't like taking responsibility for anything he's ever done in his life, ever.
Well, maybe. It sounded more like she was going along to readily for my taste. I would have liked her to tease it out a bit further, like actually ask him to explain how it makes sense if you're not using that other meaning of the word.12. Infinite Yost (Voxter) Posted: June 21, 2012 at 05:11 PM (#4162981)
But these two things I've mentioned are exceptions. I think she does a very nice job.
Earlier this year she had some state senator from Louisiana who had clearly never heard her show. He thought he was going to waltz in and push this girlie around, and she just humiliated him at every turn. I think it was this one. After a while I started feeling embarrassed and turned it off, but the guy was way over his head. One of the great things about Gross is that most times she's willing to pursue a confrontational approach that I would be too timid to pursue.
Basically the only things I don't like are the interviews with musicians, because they're usually some kind of musician I don't care about (showtunes, noodly modern jazz, some boomer icon). And I love it when she's got someone on there and she's clearly a genuine fan -- her interviews with David Milch and Flight of the Concords are great for that reason.

"There are people like me beyond every border" – stated by the Norwegian minister of EU Affairs Frank Bakke-Jensen during one workshop alongside with the youngsters that took part in this project.
Go Green was part of the Youth Exchange "Let's do it outside" organised in Langfjordbotn, Northern Norway from 1st till 10th of August. The project was hosted by our partners from Norway, "Leppe-ganespalteforeningeni Norge", in cooperation with our partners from Germany,"NaturKulture.V.", funded by AktivUngdom Erasmus+ in Norway. Besides from Macedonia, Norway and Germany, teams from Luxemburg, Netherlands and Croatia also participated on this youth exchange.
The topics of this project were:
- Youth activism
- Migrants' and refugees' integration, Inclusion – equity, EU Citizenship, awareness and democracy
- Outdoor sports and activities, healthy lifestyle and wellbeing.
During the youth exchange the participants, with assistance from each country's team leader, organised workshops on the following relevant topics: Prejudices about other countries, Human rights and the burning issues about minorities in all partner countries, How can we find solutions to the issues among minorities, Visiting a reindeer farmer and learning about herding, Debate around the topic of human rights and minority issues, Circle of influence – pay it forward, Erasmus+ info point – Youthpass, Reflection and evaluation workshops.
All of the workshops were organised using tools and non-formal methods of education. The youngsters were working in groups, presenting, singing, playing theatre, drawing posters and strips, pantomime plays, debating, hiking and fishing. All of the youngsters were actively involved in the process of organising and executing the workshops. Every evening one of the country groups took turn into presenting their culture, traditional food and beverages, songs, dances and games.
According to the evaluation of this youth exchange, the participants were very satisfied with the organisation of the project. The best impressions, as stated by the participants, were the creativity of the workshops, the hiking up the Norwegian mountains, the escape of their comfort zone, the knowledge they gained about the Norwegian minority - Sami people, the knowledge about the burning issues of the minorities in every partner country, as well as the friendships and the lifelong connections they created.

Printing C++ Objects to stderr/stdout
When your C++ projects grow a little, you may find yourself needing to log the state of objects. There are two ways of doing this (assuming that you'll want to log the data the same way each time).
The wrong way is writing logging code that knows everything about your objects internals. E.g. if you have three
struct BoxSize {
int width, height;
struct Coordinates {
int x,y;
struct Box {
Coordinates coordinates;
BoxSize size;
and it is initialized as so
Box box;
box.coordinates.x = 12;
box.coordinates.y = 12;
box.size.width = 100;
box.size.height = 200;
a naive implementation of logging the state of the box would be to just extract the from the params directly.
``cpp std::cerr « "box:" « std::endl; std::cerr « "coordinates: " « box.coordinates.x « "," « box.coordinates.y « std::endl; std::cerr « "size: " « box.size.width « "," « box.size.height « std::endl « std::endl;
However a better implementation can be done (again assuming you want the values logged exactly the same way every time)
First you need to implement operator<< function and call it your friend. Like so:
struct BoxSize {
int width, height;
friend std::ostream& operator<< (std::ostream &out, BoxSize &bs)
out << bs.width << "," << bs.height;
return out;
and the same for the coordinates:
struct Coordinates {
int x, y;
friend std::ostream& operator<< (std::ostream &out, Coordinates &c)
out << c.x << "," << c.y;
return out;
and finally the box:
struct Box {
Coordinates coordinates;
BoxSize size;
friend std::ostream& operator<< (std::ostream &out, Box &sb)
out << "Coordinates: " << sb.coordinates << std::endl;
out << "Size: " << sb.size << std::endl;
return out;
now the logging of the object can be done in one line - and you never have to worry about typing it the right way… And even better, if any of the structs internals change, their own code will need to change to log the right values… Not every consumer of the actual objects.
std::cerr << "box: " << std::endl << box << std::endl;

sorry to not have answered you all. i'm still trying to find my way around this forum!
lori - i live right next to livingston. there are those darn "circles" there and they sure can be a challenge. i find myself just gripping the steering wheel and flying on thru them!!! lucky for me i have a pretty big car! LOL!
frayda! i grew up in edison! right off of new durham road. it sure has changed a lot since then. do you have children that went to school in edison? my mom was a teacher there for 35 years. she taught 2nd and 3rd grade at menlo park elementary school. wouldn't that be a hoot if you knew her?
i'm grateful to have found you all. i'm going thru a very tough time right now and can use a lot of friends!
i finished my treatments for stage 2b, 2 positive nodes, er/pr +, her2+++ the beginning of march. a cat scan two weeks ago showed spots on my lungs that weren't there before chemo. going to see a thoracic surgeon on tuesday and will be having an open lung biopsy to determine if the spots are the cancer, or an infection. the stress is horrible! i've been popping ativan like they are candy and i still can't get rid of the huge knots in my stomach.
well, let's hope for the best. i promised my husband that if they find this is an infection, i'll learn how to do a cartwheel and start rolling! so if anyone in nj sees a crazy, spikey haired broad of 45 doing cartwheels down the side of the road - its me!!!! hugs,
Hi Stacy! Small world, huh?!
I live off New Dover Rd. so my kids had gone to James Madison, but my friend teaches at Menlo Park school. Now I have one son in law school and one son in medical school! We have a saying here about worrying: try not to worry until you know that there is something to worry about, thanks to GMA! I've been dealing with scattered lung nodules since last May when they were discovered on a CT scan during a work up for a new breast lump (that turned out to be a cyst,yeah!). I had a repeat scan in 6 weeks, then 3 months then 4 months and the most recent one last week. So far, no changes. I see the lung specialist next week for my follow-up. They haven't wanted to biopsy them since they appear unchanged. I have been reassured that if they were cancer, they would have changed. But knowing that they are there leaves my uneasy. The doctor is a very close friend who I trust like a brother, so I have been going along with him. My dh (that's short for dear husband) is a doctor, too. So, here's hoping that all goes well for you, too! Let us know when that biopsy is and we'll have that PCE ready to go! Hugs, Frayda

Unanswered: getDatabaseName() function
I've used a function called getDatabaseName() but it gives me a list of tables from an external database requires us to input the name of the table as it is spelled. Is there another function that anybody knows that will allow you to select the table as opposed to typing it completely?

I'm confused. Are you trying to return a listing of the tables in a database (in an mdb file) or the database (mdb) name itself and it's location?Expert Database Programming

Sorry for the confusion. Let's say I have DB1 and DB2. From DB1 I am trying to import a table from DB2 using this module code. The current getDatabaseName is requiring me to type in the full name of the table from DB2 in order to import it. After I type it, it says confirms the table name, and if it's spelled correctly, it will import the table. Here is a portion of the code to give you an idea of what it does.
Public Function getTableName(db As Database) As String Tables = "" For Each t In db.TableDefs If Left(t.Name, 4) <> "MSys" Then Tables = Tables & t.Name & vbCr End If Next If Len(Tables) = 0 Then n = MsgBox("No user-defined tables found. Macro will exit.", vbOKOnly, "Error") End End If validSelection = False While Not validSelection s = InputBox("Database" & vbCr & vbCr & db.Name & vbCr & vbCr & _ "contains the following tables: " _ & vbCr & vbCr & Tables, "PLEASE ENTER TABLE NAME") checkForCancel (s) For Each t In db.TableDefs If t.Name = s Then validSelection = True getTableName = s End If Next If Not validSelection Then If MsgBox("Table " & s & " not found. Please re-enter table name.", _ vbOKCancel, "Error") = vbCancel Then promptForExit End If End If Wend End Function

Former British premier Tony Blair warned in an interview Wednesday that the international community may have "no alternative" to taking military action against Iran if it develops a nuclear weapon.
"I am saying that I think it is wholly unacceptable for Iran to have a nuclear weapons capability and I think we have got to be prepared to confront them, if necessary militarily," he said in extracts pre-released by the BBC from an interview to publicise his memoirs.
"I think there is no alternative to that if they continue to develop nuclear weapons. They need to get that message loud and clear."
Blair expanded on the point in his book, which is being published Wednesday, saying that while a nuclear-armed Iran would pose a threat to the West, the real danger would come with its ability to boost Islamic extremism.
"Let us be frank: Iran is a far more immediate threat to its Arab neighbours than it is to America" or Britain, he wrote in the memoir, which recounts his experiences during his decade as prime minister from 1997 to 2007.
"That's why Iran matters. Iran with a nuclear bomb would mean others in the region acquiring the same capability; it would dramatically alter the balance of power in the region, but also within Islam."
Western powers and Israel accuse Iran of trying to build a nuclear arsenal.
Iran, which on Saturday began loading fuel into its Russian-built first nuclear power plant, denies the allegations, saying its programme is for civil energy purposes only.

Separate names with a comma.

There are a few brands of stoves that I refuse to work on.
Fixing their product is not that hard of an issue most of the time and i would never want to refuse service to someone in need. AES just wants something from me in return which i constantly refuse. I guess if they were really serious about helping their customers they would either 1, have dealers and not under cut them by selling direct, 2 seek out the most qualified service people or 3, r and d a product worthy of the hard earned money people put up for an alternative heat source.
As of today i havent heard anything back....i guess we'll have to wait till next year.
I am trying to figure out why AES is listing anyone on the east coast. I thought they only went as far east as Minnesota.

Who are we?
JournaJobs.eu isn't your typical job listing website. Seeing that journalists hold impartiality in high esteem, and considering the increasingly precarious job status, pay scale, and business sustainability in the sector, we feel that job vacancy notices for the profession are best compiled and managed by a non-profit foundation and as a non-profit-making service in itself. In such a way, JournaJobs.eu embraces journalism career opportunities irrespective of the particular interest of any individual publishing company, public service or commercial broadcaster, or firm or NGO in need of qualified journalistic work.
JournaJobs.eu is a pro-bono project launched and underwritten by the European Journalism Centre (EJC), an independent international foundation that supports journalists and journalism. The EJC is a neutral, yet trusted partner of the entire journalism community, i.e., of news organisations and individual professionals alike.
Even though JournaJobs.eu is a not-for-profit venture and job seekers can use the website free of charge, postings of job offers come at a modest fee. This price is primarily a mechanism to ensure that offers are legitimate and well prepared. However, proceeds will be donated to charitable organisations in the journalism sector – as per the choice of the person posting the advert. We ask for your understanding that a maximum of 20% of the revenues will be deducted to cover administrative expenses for statutory accounting, auditing, and processing of payments.
Who should use JournaJobs.eu?
Whether you are a representative of a media outlet or a publisher for an online blog or magazine, JournaJobs.eu is here to help you affordably reach out to a network of European journalists, bloggers, and writers. If you are looking to fill a full- or part-time vacancy, or if you happen to be looking for that one-time freelance Italian writer living in Moscow, JournaJobs.eu will make it happen.
Broadcast journalists
Multimedia journalists
Press photographers
Journalistic researchers
Journalism students
Times are tough, especially if you are a journalist who is trying to make a living solely off of your reporting. Most likely, you often find yourself scouring the web and looking for jobs on countless employers' websites thinking to yourself, "this is a limited and tedious process." If this sounds familiar, then JournaJobs.eu is right for you. JournaJobs.eu tries to ease the burden by organically aggregating the most interesting jobs out there and will not waste your time by posting any and every kind of media-related jobs. For example, a media organisation looking for a Sales Representative (which is technically also a media-related job) will not get listed.
Who should become a partner of JournaJobs.eu?
Even if you are not looking for a job, some of your friends or colleagues might be. Whether you want to help them out or if you just want to spread the word about us, we have made an easy-to-embed website widget that takes about 30 seconds to install on your website. The widget lists the 5 latest JournaJobs.eu for your viewers to see, it is unobtrusive, and it might help you give your webpage a little bit more pizzazz.
Want to get involved with JournaJobs.eu? Become a sponsor. Your organisation has the option of becoming a JournaJobs.eu sponsor. As a sponsor, you will receive a JournaJobs banner that can be attached to your website, and all proceeds will go to Facebook and Google ads to promote the project. Interested? Contact us.
Are you a charitable organisation that wants to get involved with JournaJobs.eu? We have good news! Every penny of the job listing proceeds go to the cause or charity of the submitter's choice, so don't miss your chance to promote your organisation and receive donations in the process. If your organisation is not listed here and you feel it might fit in, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The Quality of Part-Time Employment in Australia: Dimensions, Prospects and Policy
This project will develop a sophisticated conceptual framework for assessing the quality of part-time employment, drawing on cross-national comparisons and using a gender systems approach.
ARC Discovery Grant
Part-time employment is an important and growing phenomenon in Australia, as is most OECD countries. While research has focused on the quantity of part-time employment, the key dimension of quality has been neglected.
The project will produce a comprehensive and practical assessment of the quality of part-time employment in Australia, including two detailed industry case studies. Finally, the project will evaluate the main policy paths for improving the quality of part-time employment.

Undoubtedly, Retrospect's BEST OF 2011 release comes from NY-based CRYSTAL PROJECT. And I would even go as far to say one of Retrospect's best releases of ALL TIME!! Formerly known as CRYSTAL PISTOL (but changed the name due to confusion with a more recent Canadian band of the same name), CRYSTAL PROJECT were a stunning melodic hard rock / AOR band that recorded and performed live extensively during the 80's and early 90's. These songs were recorded during that time and will absolutely blow you away. Its criminal that these guys weren't one of the biggest bands of that era. All the best of elements of why we love melodic hard rock and AOR so much are packed here in this 2-Disc set -- all digitally remastered. From the stellar vocals, massive vocal harmonies, first class guitar riffs and solo's, fat keyboards and tight punchy rhythm section all wrapped up in top notch production and some of the best songs you have ever heard!! Words simply can not do these guys justice. Imagine a mix of bands like Prophet, Dare, FM, Survivor, Journey, Heartland, Strangeways, Treat, Foreigner, Boston, later Triumph, Bon Jovi, Night Ranger, Damn Yankees, and on and on. These guys are top tier AORsters and we at Retrospect can't recommend this double-disc set highly enough.
The great news, is that Crystal Project are back together and will be releasing some new music in the future and will be doing some reunion shows!! In the meantime, get crystallized!!

On Wednesday the Future Educators at OUZ distributed school supplies and winter weather accessories for students and teachers at John McIntire Elementary. Megan Moore, a student in the organization, says they've been collecting donations from both students and faculty, and from area businesses.
"They're gonna go through the stuff themselves and pass them out to the teachers who need new markers that are dried out by now. It's the second half of the year so a lot of things are gone," said Moore.
Personal grooming supplies like toothpaste, toothbrushes, body wash and deodorant were also donated to the school for middle school students.
"Some of the personal hygiene items are for the middle schoolers, they're hitting that time and so we have some deodorant, body wash and stuff like that so they can kind of start teaching about personal hygiene and its importance."
Moore says the donation day wouldn't have been possible without generous donations from the community and local businesses.

Himanshu's Demographic Likes Rap, Pizza, Biryani, Booty
Greedhead Records founder @Himanshu put this call out on Twitter yesterday:
Hi! My names HIMA! I like rap and Queens where im from and India where my parents from. What do you like?
What followed was a stream of retweets from his fans who answered that question. Eliminating the noise words, others that appeared most frequently included "girls," "rap," "pizza," "music," "art," "weird," and "witchy."
Not many surprises there, I know…though I guess I thought there'd be more Dadaism.
