Re: Crook family stories
In reply to:
Crook family stories
amy crowder 9/20/10
My line of Scottish Crook's in NC/KY/West Tn from Richard Crook
1.Richard left Scotland at age 16 in the company of some soldiers to come to America, around 1746. (see 3 below)
2.Crook family has "horns" or bumps on their ears, as long ago the Devil coveted the beautiful wife of the old Lord Crook- took him over one evening and they sired his child...hmmm maybe that explains the temper also ;-)
3. A riddle or pass-phrase:John Crook's father tied John Crook's father, and the answer is Underdown.Richard Crook was an officer during the Revolution and captured a tory named Stephen Underdown.They later became friends. When Richard was killed near the end of the war in an engagement against some Indians, Underdown married his widow.

What is hyperthyroidism?
This is a medical condition which occurs when you have an overactive thyroid causing the thyroid gland to produce too much of thyroxine. The thyroid gland is an organ located in the front of your neck and releases hormones that control your metabolisms such as weight, breathing, heart rate, body temperature and nervous system.
People with:
Your doctor will diagnose you based on symptoms and physical exam. Other tests that may be ordered for further diagnosis include:
These are drugs prescribed to inhibit the production of thyroid hormones. They are also known as thyrostatics. Thyroid tissue usually contains quite a substantial reserve of thyroid hormone and once thyrostatic are administered it can take weeks to become effective. In addition, the dose needs to be carefully titrated over some months, with regular visits to the doctor and blood tests to monitor results so as to prevent hypothyroidism.
Surgery can be performed to remove a part of the thyroid or the whole thyroid a procedure known as a thyroidectomy. However, this is not extensively used because most common forms of hyperthyroidism are quite effectively treated by other methods.
Radioactive iodine treatment is used to destroy the thyroid tissue. Initially, symptoms of hyperthyroidism may worsen following the treatment. This is because thyroid hormones are released into the blood following the radioactive iodine treatment. However, medications such as beta blockers may be useful during this period of time and most patients are able to tolerate the initial few weeks without any problems.

Wild About New Wildlands
1000 Friends is supporting legislation that will create nine new Wildlands and expand fourteen existing Wildlands. Wildlands are state-owned properties that have retained their wilderness character or are home to rare plants and animals. They are great places for enjoying nature! Best of all, the Wildlands designation assures that these special places are preserved for the enjoyment of future generations.
One of our favorites is the Mattawoman Wildland in Charles County, the only place on Maryland's Western Shore where the American lotus grows. We are excited that the proposed legislation will expand the Mattawoman Wildland and designate almost 700 acres of nearby Chapman Forest as a new Wildland.
Years ago, we fought alongside numerous organizations to save Chapman Forest from development. Thanks to the coalition's hard work and the support of Governor Glendening, visitors to Chapman State Park enjoy rich wildflower displays, the state's largest Glade Fern bed and a variety of magnificent birds – including bald eagles! Click HERE to find the Wildland closest to you and HERE to see the list of proposed Wildlands.

Governor Pat McCrory announced today that he has proclaimed June as Solar Energy Month in North Carolina, stressing the role the growing industry is playing in creating jobs and helping make our state and nation energy independent.
"North Carolina is home to one of the fastest growing solar industries in our nation," said Governor Pat McCrory. "It is important that we recognize the impact the solar industry is making in our state, not only in terms of being another valuable piece to an "all-of-the-above' energy plan, but also the high-quality jobs the industry creates for hardworking North Carolinians."
Governor McCrory was joined by Strata Solar CEO Markus Wilhelm for the proclamation announcement at Strata Solar in Willow Spring, North Carolina.
The solar energy sector is expanding throughout the state, with solar farms, plants, manufacturing equipment for the solar industry, and workers installing and maintaining both large and small scale solar facilities creating critical jobs for North Carolinians. North Carolina currently has more than 500 companies working in the solar industry, and they employ about 2,000 workers.
Since 2007, more than $743 million has been invested in the solar industry, creating jobs and providing solar photovoltaic development and infrastructure. Today more than 229 megawatts of solar energy are currently installed throughout North Carolina -- sixth in the nation.

I suppose that just about everyone who will be reading this article is familiar with the name Syesha Mercado. For those who aren't she is one of three finalists in the American Idol singing contest on TV and hails from the Sarasota area of our State. Actually, I wasn't that interested in the program but my wife is and the more she talked about it, the more I paid attention and especially because of Syesha's climb into the final three. I was not only impressed with her melodic capabilities but I noted how positive she was despite criticism from one of the judges. Instead of wavering as a result of that criticism, she just sang all the better in subsequent appearances. It was clear that it wasn't others upon whom she was focused but on herself and what she KNEW that she could do based on her belief.
This morning, on my way back from the gym, I listened to an interview that she had with some local morning show hosts. She talked about how her entrance into the American Idol contest occurred in stages and each stage was not successful. But she kept on trying for one simple reason. She indicated that despite her past difficulties, someone told her "this is going to be your year". She believed that and based her sense of continuing on that belief. She also talked about how frightening it was when, in the contest, she started to lose her voice. And then she said that subsequently she sang her "heart out" and gave the best performance of her career. She said that she sang for her survival in the contest and remained a contestant as a result.
Now, I've written many articles on the power of positive thinking as it can affect any and all areas of our lives. Sports, business, relationships, adventures all can be affected by positive thinking. And yet, there is a sense of skepticism that prevails on the part of some who cannot believe that, for instance, if you envision and focus on your next shot in golf, the chances are very great that it will occur as you envisioned it. That is nothing more than positive thinking in a golf game. Let me try and explain why this skepticism might exist.
Whether people admit it or not, there is an element of superstition that tends to influence our thinking. We often talk about good and bad luck as being something over which we have no control. Actually, when I was coaching losing teams in sports, I would invent superstitions to bring "good luck" to those kids who had lost faith in their ability to win. I remember in hockey our team was at the "bottom of the barrel" and one day I suggested that the players could not wear any other under shorts or socks than the ones they had on (although they could be washed). Believe it or not, they began to win a few games and so the superstition stuck. However, what I was trying to promote was that they not focus on losing but on their ability to win which is what superstition is really all about. If we believe in ourselves and our abilities as the primary consideration in whatever we do, our focus will bring out the best and, not unusually, result in a successful outcome.
And so, Syesha, I really don't have to wish you the best of luck. You have a secret that I can only write about but that you will experience. And win or lose the contest, you will have won if you know that you have done your level best by focusing on what you CAN DO instead of depending on the good wishes of those who admire your talents.
Here are some points that you might want to consider:
- Confidence is believing in yourself AND believing that what you believe IS TRUE;
- Your ability comes from within so if you are accustomed to looking to others for support, try focusing on what you have already accomplished and repeat it;
- Bad luck is nothing more than ONE FAILED ATTEMPT. However, there are many more tries that you can make that could be successful.
Now, let your unconscious mind, the mind of creativity and resourcefulness take over and conquer those parts of your life that you previously considered to be impossible feats.

Heather Reeves
My Profile
I have a wide background in reproductive public health; Before entering a career in research, I developed extensive knowledge in maternal, reproductive and childhood health through clinical experience as a midwife. Subsequent to this I completed my Master in Health Research (MRES), my dissertation focus was on obstetric fistula. I then undertook an internship with the World Health Organization (WHO), within the division of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Research. I undertook many literature reviews and worked towards promoting evidence based practice. In my current role as a Research Associate/Midwife at Imperial, I manage and lead on numerous projects. I organise and manage data collection and handling, communication, project progression and recruitment for national and international research projects run from our Women's Health Research Centre. I have become skilled in meeting internal deadlines and have developed my formal communication skills presenting my findings at conferences.
I am the lead researcher for an international project that requires regular correspondence and communication with Canada and France. We have developed a positive relationship and support each other to increase recruitment. I feel effective communication, teamwork and hard-work are my strengths which ensure my projects are running on schedule.
My aim for my career is to focus on the health of women and newborn infants in low income settings. I have a strong desire to work towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDG). In support of this outside of my professional role, I am currently working with the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) and Wellbeing of Women (WoW), on a study focusing on MDG 5, titled 'Pilot project in monitoring of women's health condition across the referral chain, Yola North (Jimeta), Adamawa state, Nigeria.' I initiated this project, wrote the research proposal, and established a collaboration with the charities Transaid and Society for Family Health (SFH), and between an experienced consultant Suzie Elneil (Committee member of FIGO, Chair of Fistula Foundation, Ethiopia). I believe this demonstrates my passion for progressing in my career in international development.
I am extremely passionate and enthusiastic in regards to working hard in order achieve good results. I am interested in collaborating with charities and assisting in completing projects, evaluations and policy documents. Please do contact me if you would like to work together!

The container vessel Xin Lian Yun Gang has been rescued by Iranian naval forces in the Gulf of Aden.
According to a statement by the Iranian Navy, on September 17 in the morning, the Chinese container vessel was attacked by five boats in attempt to hijack the ship. The attack was repelled by warships from the Iranian Navy's 31st fleet (comprising Bayandor destroyer and Bandar Abbas military ship).
Having received the emergency call from the Chinese container ship, the Iranian deployed their vessels. By using special operation teams, and light weapons, the Iranian forced the pirates to run away from the scene. The Xin Lian Yun Gang, which was en route from Singapore to Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), continued its voyage.
The Iranian Navy has been conducting anti-piracy patrols in the Gulf of Aden since November 2008 in line with international efforts to combat piracy.
Xin Lian Yun Gang ( IMO number 9234355 and MMSI 413058000) was built in 2003. The 280-metre vessel has deadweight of 68,944 DWT.

Child killer Robert Black dies in Northern Ireland prison
Child killer Robert Black who was convicted of the murders of four children from across the UK has died in Maghaberry prison.
The 68-year-old Scottish-born killer was serving 12 life sentences for the murders of four schoolgirls in the 1980s.
His victims were nine-year-old Jennifer Cardy from Northern Ireland; Sarah Harper, 10, from England, and 11-year-old Susan Maxwell and five-year-old Caroline Hogg both from Scotland.
<< Who was Robert Black? Child killer takes secrets to the grave>>
<< Robert Black: One wrong turn led to child killer being caught red-handed >>
Northern Ireland Prison Service confirmed an inmate died in non-suspicious circumstances.
Prison sources have said the dead prisoner was Black.
Black was caught red-handed by police in 1990 with a barely barely alive six-year-old girl hooded, bound, gagged and stuffed in a sleeping bag in the back of his van in the Scottish village of Stow. He had sexually assaulted her moments earlier.
In 2012, he was found guilty of the 1981 murder of nine-year-old Jennifer Cardy, from Ballinderry, Co Antrim.
He was also suspected of involvement in other killings.
He had long been the prime suspect in the case of missing 13-year-old Genette Tate, who was last seen in a rural lane in Aylesbeare, Devon, in 1978.
No trace of the newspaper delivery girl has ever been found. All that remained at the scene were her bike and scattered papers.
A NI Prison Service spokeswoman said: "The Prison Service has confirmed that a 68-year-old prisoner has died at Maghaberry Prison.
"While this is not being treated as suspicious, the Prison Service has informed the PSNI, Coroner, and Prisoner Ombudsman. It would not be appropriate to comment further at this time."
SDLP MLA for Upper Bann Dolores Kelly said the murder committed by Robert Black were "scorched in the memories" of people at the time.
She said: "The horrific murders committed by Robert Black are scorched in the memories of people from that time. I remember vividly being in the search party that looked in vain for Jennifer Cardy.
"While I didn't know her family, I have never forgotten them. Once again tonight, my thoughts and prayers are with them as the painful scars of Jennifer's death undoubtedly resurface.
"On almost a daily basis I drive past the spot were Jennifer's bike was abandoned on the 12th August 1981, and I am reminded the evil that touched this place that day.
"The entire community was frightened and shocked by what had happened and we were not alone. I remember all the children he murdered over the years: Sarah, Susan and Caroline.
"Though Black was convicted in 1994 for the murders of the other three girls, it was not until 2011 that Jennifer's family got the justice they sought.
"This was one of the longest police investigations ever to be conducted here and when he was finally convicted he was described as a lost cause to humanity. There is no doubt in my mind that that is true and tonight Black faces the ultimate judge."
Four young victims of depraved killer
Robert Black was convicted of the murder of four schoolgirls.
1981 - Jennifer Cardy
The nine-year-old schoolgirl was snatched as she cycled to a friend's house in the quiet Co Antrim village of Ballinderry on August 12 1981.
Her body was found six days later in a dam behind a roadside lay-by 15 miles away at Hillsborough, Co Down.
Black was in Northern Ireland to deliver posters for the start of a new beer and cigarette campaign.
Detectives trawled 560,000 old fuel receipts in a bid to nail Black, and eventually they found the one that proved crucial.
The receipt from a Coventry service station proved that Black, who scrawled his name on the paper, was driving south to London the day after the murder in August 1981 in a van primarily used to deliver posters in Northern Ireland.
1982 - Susan Maxwell
The 11-year-old schoolgirl lived on her family's farm near the village of Cornhill-on-Tweed on the English side of the Scottish border.
On Friday July 30 she arranged to play tennis with a friend two miles away, just over the border in the town of Coldstream.
She got a lift there and had persuaded her mother Liz to let her walk back - the first time she had done so on her own.
Her game finished at 4pm and Susan was seen crossing the bridge back into England over the River Tweed on her way home.
But then she vanished.
Two weeks later, her body was found 264 miles away lying a ditch at a roadside lay-by just outside Uttoxeter in the Midlands.
Work records showed that Black had been travelling between Edinburgh and Newcastle on the day Susan vanished and that he would usually return to London through the Midlands, where he would visit a friend. The friend lived in Donisthorpe - 20 miles from the lay-by where Susan was found.
1983 - Caroline Hogg
Five-year-old Caroline, from Portobello near Edinburgh, had spent most of Friday July 8 1983 at a friend's birthday party.
She wore a princess dress - one she loved so much that her parents let her keep it on for the rest of the day.
That evening back at her home on Beach Lane, she was allowed out to play for five minutes in the school grounds opposite her house.
Her mother went to call her in after about half an hour, but there was no reply.
It emerged that a boy had spotted Caroline in the play park she was not allowed to go to. She was on the swings. The child also noticed a ''scruffy looking man'' sitting on the promenade watching her play.
Another child had seen her walking towards the town's funfair, Fun City, hand-in-hand with an unknown man.
Ten days later, again in the English Midlands, Caroline's badly-decomposed body was found. The dead child was completely naked - again suggesting a sexual motive.
It later emerged that Black, who used to swim in Portobello as a teenager, had been back in the town the day Caroline disappeared, making a delivery.
1986 - Sarah Harper
Ten-year-old Sarah lived in the working class area of Morley in greater Leeds.
On the evening of Wednesday March 26, during her Easter holidays from school, she was sent on an errand to the corner shop by her mother.
The shopkeeper remembered her calling in, buying a loaf of bread for her mum and two packets of crisps.
She was last seen heading down a short alleyway on her way home.
Then, nothing.
Three and a half weeks later, a man walking his dog along the River Trent at Wilford, near Nottingham, saw something floating in the water.
He was shocked to realise it was a body - Sarah's.
A post-mortem examination revealed she had been subjected to a violent sexual assault.
The cause of death was drowning, with tests suggesting she was still alive when she was dumped in the river, albeit possibly unconscious.
Black made a delivery in Morley on the evening Sarah disappeared. A return trip to London via the River Trent would have seen him take the same exit off the M1 motorway he used when visiting his friend in Donisthorpe.

No cars are locked in GTA, only certain ones that are owned by a business or emergency service.
You abviously have not played III, VC(Vice City), and San Andreas, LCS, and VCS have you? In those games, I have came across A LOT of parked cars that are locked-not just Police, Fire, and Ambulances-so, that part you posted is false...and these games DO NOT have the feature of IV and the EFLC series, where if you try to enter a locked car, your character will just break the window and unlock it...
Even in SA, pretty much ALL Heli's and Planes were locked until you completed the Flight School-with the exception of the Dodo and the AT-400?(in LV)...The Chain Game saves unlocked a lot of vehicles that were normally locked, but that is ONLY for the Chain Game and not for the normal un-modded games... Just a friendly heads up.

From a female blog reader:
Dear please keep me anonymous. My boyfriend and I have been dating for 4 years now and finally, we got engaged last year the issue is he is just not financially stable, he does not work, but he has been looking for a job for the past two years anyway, he father is a well-known man and he is influential though he does not support him financially but has been promising to help get a job for him. As for me I come from a quite wealthy family and have started my master degree recently and have moved to the states, our problems started just after I went out for my MSc degree, he keeps telling me he is broke and sometimes I even send money to him, he does not look for me often, he does not even have a decent phone so that we can chat/ video call and we don't even talk that often and if we do I do most of the calling, and on top of all of these, he does not have a car anymore, am just having different feelings towards him now I feel like we don't connect anymore due to the lack of communication and am worried for the future, do I keep waiting for him to get a job or get financially stable before we marry or do I just move on please help me.

Bush for the Future of Western Civilization
The future of our country is on the line this November 2nd and if the American people choose wrongly we are done. The choice between straight talk and action and the words of ambivalence, retreat, and abdication cannot be more stark. On September 14, 2001, grabbing a bullhorn President Bush told the chanting, cheering crowd, "I can hear you. The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked down these buildings will hear from all of us soon."
Ever since September 11th President George W. Bush has chosen the harder right instead of the easier wrong. Our nations military and our allies under his watch have freed the nations of Afghanistan and Iraq and the terrorists are fighting us on foreign soil, not in our homeland.
Senator John F. Kerry has accomplished little in the past twenty years. Had he stood on that mound of rubble in New York, Senator Kerry would have pronounced pretty words of comfort, followed by judicially approved warrants. Osama Bin Laden would not be in hiding today. Saddam Hussein would still be torturing his people.
Kerry is not the right man to lead us. In these historic times our national domestic issues are secondary to our national security. We can care nothing about our social security or our prescription drugs if our homeland is under attack. President George W. Bush has vowed to defend us and he can be believed. Kerry promises to defend us after we are attacked. Those are the only believable words he has spoken.

CASEY Stoner is ready to scrap all the way with Valentino Rossi for the world MotoGP crown, and the chase for it begins today under the floodlights of the Losail circuit in Qatar.
The Australian suffered illness and fatigue last season, missing several races and ending any hopes of rivalling Rossi, but now the Ducati rider is ready and raring to go, his confidence boosted by setting the fastest time at the desert circuit in the final pre-season test.
''The limit of six days of testing has given me the chance to take my fitness up to the next level and sort out all the issues from last year,'' said Stoner, the champion in 2007.
Rossi has tested strongly on the Fiat Yamaha and is in confident mood. ''I expect this season to be a big battle with many riders very strong.
''The pre-season has gone well for me, we have done a great job and we are starting in good shape,'' said Rossi, who in an illustrious career spanning 14 seasons has gathered nine titles, all but two in the top flight.
Dani Pedrosa should be in the mix aboard the Repsol Honda while Rossi's teammate Jorge Lorenzo will pose questions at the front once he has recovered from hand injuries received in a training tumble.
The rider they will all have to watch is Ben Spies. He earned his place on the starting grid of 17 with Yamaha having won the world superbike title for it last year, and he has already shown his potential in testing.
There are no British riders in MotoGP although in the supporting 125cc championship there is every chance of last year's runner-up, Bradley Smith, going one better to lift the world crown.
''The only pressure I have is the high expectations of myself and the one thing I want is to have the No. 1 sticker on my bike at the end of the season," said the Oxfordshire teenager.
Meanwhile, at Valencia, local favourite Carlos Checa put his Ducati on to provisional pole for the third round of the superbike championship with the series-leading Leon Haslam running his Suzuki fifth fastest, though less than half a second down.
? It is too soon to write off formula one legend Michael Schumacher this season, Mercedes team chief Ross Brawn has warned.
Brawn was speaking as his team prepared to return to the scene of the seven-time world champion's most recent win at the Chinese Grand Prix in 2006.
After seeing the 41-year-old former Ferrari star upstaged by 24-year-old German teammate Nico Rosberg in all three races so far, Brawn was on the defensive and offensive as he sized up the racing to date.
And, he said, the Mercedes team was working flat-out to close the gap on Red Bull, Ferrari and McLaren.
Last season, when the team was known as Brawn GP before being taken over by Mercedes-Benz, Brawn's outfit won both the titles for constructor and driver, thanks to Briton Jenson Button and his Brazilian teammate Rubens Barrichello.
Now, he emphasised, it is only fair to give Schumacher time to prove what he can do - in a faster and more competitive car - before dismissing him as a spent force.
''We have improved so far and we hope to continue these signs of improvement in China next weekend when it would be particularly good for Michael to be able to have a clean race - and show the progress that he has made since the start of the season,'' said Brawn.
''Our car has been reliable, with the exception of a wheel-nut problem in Malaysia, and I am very pleased with the performance of our drivers. We've achieved a reasonable set of results, which are in line with the car's current pace, but we have to be realistic and acknowledge that we are not quick enough to compete right at the front at the moment.
''This is obviously not a situation that we are happy with and we are working as hard as possible to close the gap.''
Rosberg, who has raised his game to cope with Schumacher's arrival, delivered the team's first podium finish of the year when he came home third behind the Red Bulls of triumphant German Sebastian Vettel and his teammate Australian Mark Webber in the Malaysian Grand Prix last Sunday.

Автор: Honey Peter
Раздел: How to Books Ltd.
|Под заказ. Поступление на склад 12.12.2017
Managing is a perilous business: how to 'let go' yet stay in touch, how to balance short-term tactics with longer-term strategy, how to motivate people to do more with less, how to 'walk the talk' when you don't feel like it, how simultaneously to be an inspirational leader and an effective manager - the dilemmas are endless. Peter Honey has spent more than 35 years advising managers, from a wide cross-section of functions and organisations, and draws on his experiences in this entertaining, insightful book. The whole of management life is revealed in 50 short stories, some sad, some funny - all based on real managers and real events. You'll find control-freaks, autocrats, egotists, bullies, perfectionists, ditherers and eccentrics as well as a few managers simply striving to do their best in difficult circumstances. Peter Honey bravely offers each flawed manager practical advice in a bid to improve their performance and make life more tolerable for their colleagues. The result is a realistic, engaging and ultimately effective book from which any manager, at whatever level, can learn a great deal.

What won the Cold War? The traditional narrative is that free markets and capitalism won the war for America over the Soviet Union who could not match the US buck for buck in military spending. Furthermore, the civilian economy produced so much awesome stuff that the civilian population of Russia didn't really have a choice. It had been beat by capitalism and shruggingly admitted defeat and joined the West....kinda.

Zack totally teased the two of them (individually) to get together when he found out the feelings were mutual meanwhile Jason is just tired of all the gushing he gets from Kim about the yellow ranger
Jason: "Kimberly Ann Hart, I swear to god if you don't ask her out, I'll-"
Kimberly: "What? Ask her out yourself? She's not into you. Not even into guys in general. What are you going to threaten me with now, Scott? And how dare you full name me."
Trini reverted back to using earphones so they could listen to music together, but someone always moved their head too much where the other's bud always came out so she decided to get a splitter so they could still listen together, but have their individual earphones.
Zack and Jason (reluctantly) bet on who's going to get their ass wiped during sparring between the girls during training each day because (one of them gets a little too sidetracked)
Their study dates are 20% flashcards and 80% "if i fail this test tomorrow, you can tell the teacher why, Tri!" "that i couldn't keep my hands to myself after i finally found your ticklish spot which took so long to find but it was so worth it though it may have resulted in a hole in your wall because you tried blindly kicking at me?"
Trini secretly loves when Kim plays with her hair, especially when she's had a stressful day
she'll collapse into her lap and let her do her thing, letting her caress her hair and gently scratch at her scalp
Kim watches her girlfriend go from grumpy cat to lazy sleepy content cat (she totally awes at the accidental purr that comes out)
Kim is the only one that's allowed to unbraid/braid Trini's hair
Here's Kim's words of advice and reassuring comments to Trini introducing herself as her girlfriend for the first time "Breathe. You're going to do fine. You'll be great. Just think about something calming, soothing, relaxing.
"Like what?"
"Think about me. Naked."
Kim willing to fight anyone who insults or harms Trini in anyway and becoming furiously protective
Trini trying to bite back her words of anger and hatred when Amanda and her minions make a harsh snide comment to Kimberly knowing she won't be able to stop any sort of aggression once it starts
Comforting each other about their
past and current home life
Instead of passing generic notes, they're either playing tic tac toe, telling one another jokes or Kim drawing mini comics and Trini attempting to continue the story with her stick figures
Kim getting jealous when this new girl starts flirting with Trini and because this oblivious gay can't tell the difference between a friendly compliment and I'm-trying-to-ask-you-out-on-a-date compliment, she unknowingly flirts back
Trini getting jealous when Jason asks if he can talk to Kimberly in private, when Kimberly cancels their plans because she promised to hang out with him and when Jason let's it slip that Kim visits him in his room at night to talk about things that are troubling instead of talking to her
Kim volunteering to babysit Trini's brothers with her
Discussing/"Making Up" stories about the Power Rangers with them
Trading embarrassing stories about Trini
Shyly but trying to act intimidating as they interrogate Kim to see if she's good enough for their sister
Innocently asking if Kim and Trini are dating
Teasingly throwing the girlfriend word around the girls
Board Games
Movie Nights
Them and Kim getting competitive with one another during video games
Talking about their favorite superheroes as they show her their action figures
Questioning her if she believes in aliens
Kim sitting next to Trini or in front of her during Biology so they can reach under the desk and hold hands, y'know whisper in one another's ears like losers, doodle in each other's margin on their notebooks
Sneaking into each other's rooms through the window
Both calming the other down after a nightmare
Kim stealing all of Trini's flannels, jackets, hoodies. (Beanies are harder to get though she managed to steal her yellow one and replaced it before she was caught.)
Trini occasionally borrowing one of Kim's shirts/tops
neck kisses
shoulder kisses
forehead kisses
nose kisses
cheek kisses
stomach kisses
Trini staring at Kim's lips when she talks
Kim glancing at Trini' lips when they're sitting or standing too close
lip bites
Playfully bickering on who gets to be the big spoon always even though they switch it up all the time
Being able to keep up with each other's snark, wit, sass, and sarcasm
Sly smiles
Knowing smug smirks
Suggestive glances
Amused arched eyebrows
Challenging one another
Trini resting her head on Kim's shoulder
Kim resting her head atop of Trini's
Trying out different cafés, bakeries, patisseries, coffee shops and learning and eventually knowing each other's orders at all of them
jokes, innuendos, pick up lines, teasing, banter
eye rolls all the time
exaggerated eyelash batting
Kim flirtatiously winking
pleading pouting lips
Fake offended gasp
hugs from behind
Kim leaning her chin on top of Trini's head or her shoulder
both being easily whipped and persuaded/convinced by the other
whispering sweet nothings before saying something dumb and stupid and playfully insultful to get rid of the cheesy, sappy, sentiment
Trini judging Kim's music tastes and both of them trying to find a common genre
Finding places with the best views of the town/taking each other on random adventures
Late night car rides with the windows down
They frequent the cliff edge that overlooks the lake (swimming hole?) for a good view of the lights
If Trini can convince Kim to go hike up the mountain together in the morning, they watch the sunrise, but usually they watch the sunset after school/training
Drive In Movie Theater which either results in Kim being totally invested and Trini taking a nap or having a popcorn catching contest
Sharing Milkshakes
They always share the last donut and have a showdown on who gets the last piece
Taking selfies in those In N Out hats when they go out for burgers
Trini finds Kim singing into a hairbrush and dancing around her room one day as she blasts Top 40 Pop Songs
It takes roughly about 15 seconds to get her to begrudgingly join in
But she's just in awe at the girl's voice and so is Kim when Trini starts singing
They're both panicking
Racing one another just for fun (of course where no one will see)
Snowball fights
Behind the bleachers, rooftop, girl's bathroom on the second floor or in a quiet vacant hidden corner in the library is where you'll find them alone ditching class and being unusually couple-ish (The janitor's closet was just downright disgusting and smelled of cheap chlorine bleach and sanitizer even with their superhuman powers, chemicals still had some effect on their body)
Squeezing each other's hand for comfort or reassurance along with rubbing their thumb over one another's knuckles
Trusting one another more than anyone
taking turns resting their head on the other's chest
Trini resting her head in Kimberly's lap as she's sprawled out on the couch
Zack giving Kimberly the shovel talk and Jason giving Trini the shovel talk even though they care for both girls
It's a ridiculously lovable somewhat annoying act
Trini calling Kim "Princess"
kissing one another's palms and wrists
both being in utter awe that someone as amazing and beautiful wants to date them
rubbing soothing circles on one another's hands when the other gets nervous/anxious
Kim tracing abstract patterns on Trini's back when she's sleeping
long walks or hiking up those mountain trails
talking to each other all night and even when one falls asleep the other doesn't hang up the phone, lovesick idiots
When Kim asks Trini what she did to get into detention this time, if she isn't sending a death glare towards Zack and groaning like she's suffering through hell and back, she just gives a sheepish smile and a nonchalant shrug because she's not going to admit that she volunteers to go to this and the teacher could care less
Taking photographs
Kim's mirror is covered in polaroids and Trini has a secret album
Trini finding out that Kim can do an absolutely believable flawless British accent (you figure out the details)
Kim mouthing the lines to movies and tv shows and Trini's not even paying attention to the screen anymore like always
God forbid, they have hidden poetry/song books about one another that neither of have told them about.
Tickle Fights
Kim complimenting Trini all the time just to see her blush
The only time they will ever carry each other without being a stumbling blushing mess or arguing over the position in carrying is when one of them is injured or asleep
Star Gazing on top of Kim's roof
They totally had the same idea of kissing in the rain even though they both know it's a fricking cliche because a) they can't get sick and b) they're saps and hopeless romantics even if they won't admit it
Having a snowman contest
Kim pushing Trini into the pool and Trini pulling her in with her
Kim booping Trini on the nose and Trini is just bewildered
They take turns bringing each other drinks and donuts for breakfast during the school week (Jason scolds them about needing to eat a healthier breakfast)
They meet up before first period then always text each other before their next classes/during passing periods/hallway traffic jam to complain or give them a heads up about things instead of walking one another to class
Stealing from another's food during lunch
though it turns more into a game of sorts
Whoever gets out earlier from class waits by the other's locker after school
Let's just say the Rangers can't get drunk so they inevitably try to drink themselves to death, but a body shot and a lap dance ensues
"Do you trust me?"
"Not with my water bottle and definitely not over a cliff."
"If she goes, I go."
"You're an idiot."
"That's just your way of telling me, you love me. I've cracked that code a long time ago, Hart."
"Will you please just shut up for a second and stop doubting yourself and listen to me! You're beautiful."
"Why did we agree to play Seven Minutes in Heaven?"
"Did they just tell us to go fuck in a closet?"
"The irony hasn't escaped me."
"I hate this town. I hate these faces. I'm just so tired of everything, except you. Never you."
"You're not short,you're just tiny."
"I don't remember falling in love with you. I just remember you grabbing onto my hand and squeezing way too hard when we were about to be pummeled to our deaths by a train and in that terrifying second I couldn't process anything except a single thought which was, "You're dying just admit you're gay and pretty girls make you weak."
"You've been shutting everyone out that genuinely cares about you"
"Not everyone, not you."
"Do you think the world could suddenly end on a night as quiet as this?"
"Let me ask you something. Do you think there's such a thing as a perfect day?"
"A perfect day. Start to finish. When nothing terrible or sad or ordinary happens. Do you think it's possible?"
"We spend our whole lives stuck in the labyrinth, thinking about how we'll escape one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps us going, but we'll never do it. We just use the future to escape the present. Truth is, we'll never actually be rid of Angel Grove, we're still Power Rangers and just like any other superhero we'll end up staying exactly where we are. Unfortunately our home isn't a city." "Well, at least it has you."
"You were not meant to simply be pretty. You were meant to fight back, so get up and face it."
"What's inside is what matters. You are so much smarter than they give you credit for."
"I am aware that I am less than some people prefer me to be, but most people are unaware that I am so much more than what they see."
"I feel lost inside myself."
"I'm not perfect, but I'm original."
"Tell me every terrible thing you ever did and let me love you anyway."
"The happiest people, don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything."
"Perhaps, I want nothing more than to fall asleep next to you."
"My life will end someday and so will yours, hopefully we die roughly around the same age, not that I want you to die ever but I don't want you suffering of heartbreak like some depressing Hallmark movie so just kiss me anytime."
"Thank you, for making me feel less alone."
"I stopped explaining myself when I realized people only understand from their level of perception."
"You are alive. You are not a sad story."
"I love you, but don't know what to do."
"You can't love someone unless you love yourself first." Bullshit.
I have never loved myself.
But you
Oh god, I loved you so much I forgot what hating myself felt like."
"Why did you do that?"
"Because I love you."
"I would never let anybody or anything hurt you."
"I don't know for sure what I'm feeling. I don't think you know exactly what you're feeling either. This is all new or maybe we've felt this way for quite sometime, but refused to acknowledge them. What I do know is that, whatever mutual feelings we have for one another is not going to jeopardize our friendship.We're not going to let that happen."
"Just talk to me."
"What is wrong with you?"
"I'm crazy, remember?"

Finn: New era starts now
England begin a new era on Friday as they play their first match since the retirement of Andrew Strauss.
Last Updated: 30/08/12 6:47pm
England begin a new era on Friday as they play their first match since the retirement of Andrew Strauss.
Strauss retired from cricket on Wednesday, with Alastair Cook taking over as Test captain.
The Essex opener was already skipper of the ODI team, which faces South Africa in the third of five matches at The Oval on Friday.
England are 1-0 down and fast bowler Steve Finn says the future will be bright under Cook.
"Cooky was the one who told me I was making my Test debut so that always holds a great place in my heart," said Finn.
"Coming into an England team he made it very easy for a young player to settle in and just go about my business.
"That was the first experience I had of being in an England dressing room and Alastair was excellent at welcoming me in and making me feel like one of the boys.
"Cooky is a similar sort of leader to Straussy. He leads from the front as an opening batsman and setting the tone is very good for a captain.
Smooth transition
"I think the transition between the two will be smooth in that Alastair has been used to working with Andy Flower as a one-day captain."
England will make at least one change from the team beaten at Southampton - Graeme Swann has been rested for the rest of the series, with James Tredwell replacing him in the squad.
Kent's Tredwell could come straight in, or England could turn to the all-round talents of Samit Patel.
South Africa, the new No. 1 team in the ODI rankings as well as Test and T20 following their 80-run victory at Southampton, could name an unchanged team.


text: Long story short, I did something wrong while trying to repair my DS Lite and now I'm wondering if I should get a DSi or get another DS Lite. I've seen some sites advertise $10 more for a DSi so I figured why not. Does DSi have any blocks on flash cards (I currently own an Acekard 2i and R4) or have any updates that would hinder my gaming? If not then I'll get it unless somebody has something to say about it otherwise o_o --Thanks

The last couple of months have been more than interesting in the old proverbial way. But, until recently, I'd still managed to get some writing done. Not nearly as much as I would have liked and, as a result, I'm behind on a couple of deadlines. Add in the hard drive that died and is being resuscitated and, well, frustration has been the emotion of the week. But now that things appear to be getting back to normal, Myrtle the Muse has decided that she wants to be more difficult than usual and my writing life has fallen down the well and into a Twilight Zone version of Wonderland.
I'd finally finished Nocturnal Challenge, the fourth books and fifth title in my Nocturnal Lives series. If I had to pick one character of all those I've written who I really like, it would be Mackenzie Santos from that series. Mac is stubborn, flawed and trying to figure out how to live in a world that suddenly isn't quite what she always thought it to be. She can also be a pushy bitch in my head when she thinks I'm not giving her and her cohorts enough of my attention — as in whenever I'm writing anything else.
Normally, the Nocturnal Lives books are relatively easy writes. But not Challenge. Part of the "challenge" — pun intended — is that the world for not just Mac but for everyone is about to change and the events in this book will play a big role in what happens. Part of it is that one of the major supporting characters is basically off-screen for the entire book, so some of the byplay that has been so important in the previous books isn't there.
The real challenge, however, has been Myrtle the Muse. She has been playing games with this book from the very beginning. She messed with my normal writing routine. Usually I write front to back. Not this time. Oh no, Myrtle demanded I write the opening couple of chapters, the last third (maybe a bit more) of the book and then go back and write the middle. I. DO. NOT. LIKE. THIS. Not that Myrtle cared.
When I finished Challenge, I put it aside. I had this nagging feeling that something wasn't right but I couldn't put my finger on it. So I practiced what I preach. I put it away until I could look at it with fresh eyes. The problem with that is it gave Myrtle more time to figure out ways to screw with me.
Imagine my surprise — and anger, frustration and outright disbelief — when I picked Challenge up over the weekend and started reading it. Everything about it screamed "WRONG!" It was more than my usual dose of self-doubt. The muse that shall no longer be named (TMTSNLBN)– yes, I'm that mad at her — was having all sorts of fun messing with my head.
You see, after three novels and a novella in the universe, all written in third person, TMTSNLBN had decided it would be really cool if I wrote Challenge in first person. Forget about the more than 80,000 words I'd already written. I would be sooooo easy to go back and write it in first person. Do it all from Mac's point of view. Forget about the fact the other books were written in third person.
Head, meet desk. Repeat.
I talked with my mentor and alpha readers. They were as confused by TMTSNLBN as was I. So I tried what TMTSNLBN wanted. I tried first person. Not only no but NO! It doesn't work. Maybe if this were the first book in the series but not the fourth. So I've told TMTSNLBN that she is in a time out. I've printed out the manuscript as it and am going at it the only way I know how — with a figurative shovel.
In other words, I've told my muse that she is just that, a muse, not the final arbiter of all that I write. I've also reminded her that I know about her warped sense of humor and that I, too, look at a calendar and I'm not about to fall for her early Halloween joke. (Okay, I really do know that my muse is only an extension of my mind and not a real person. It would be easier if she were. Then I could toss her out the front door and refuse her calls.)
The point of all this is that sometimes, for whatever reason, we get sidetracked. It can be the popcorn kitten issue where everything except what you are working on looks like it would be fun to write. It can be your subconscious telling you that you are about to go off the rails if you don't go back and fix something. It can be, as I suspect this is, a subconscious fear because you are taking your characters into unknown territory after they have gotten comfortable where they are.
My solution has been to give myself not only a daily schedule of what I expect to do but a deadline for when I plan to put the book up for pre-order. The only thing that will impact that schedule is if, when I get the recovered hard disc back, I discover I lost the one major editing job hanging over me. If that is the case, the weekend will be spent redoing it because it is very late now.
In the meantime, push through. That's what I keep telling myself. The work computer is back together. The geek guys at the local shop have been trying to salvage my old HD. Writing, such as it is, is starting up again. Now to get back into a regular schedule and get a few deadlines met.
And, most importantly, figure out how to stop TMTSNLBN from going rogue again.

Panda Cigs Editor Review

Panda Cigs
First Impression
Panda Ecigs, owned and operated by Panda Dream World, Inc. out of Lafayette, California... literally came out of nowhere. When they contacted us to see if we wanted to review their product, we were a bit skeptical. After all, there are literally hundreds and hundreds of ecig companies out there with more appearing every day. With ECCR being a small, but dedicated team right now, this simply means we only have a limited amount of man-hours to devote to electronic cigarette reviews.
Our focus right now is usually on the main brands that we feel will be the most targeted by potential customers. These are the e-cigarette brands that are doing the most marketing and the brands that most people will be aware of and look for. Unfortunately for the consumer, some of the brands with the most money are offering sub-par quality products- especially when you weigh them against other products made by companies that don't have quite as much money to throw into advertising. In the real world where you and I live, this just doesn't make sense.
You'd think companies with more money would dump a nice chunk of that money into R & D (research and development) so that they could ensure that their product will continually grow in quality as the technology surrounding ecigs grows as well. Electronic cigarettes are still in their infancy, really. One day, we truly believe this will be a multi-billion dollar industry. That's why you see the FDA and Big Tobacco all over everything this industry does. They too know this "small tree" will grow to be one of the biggest trees in the forest- at least as it relates to nicotine-based products.
With that said, we feel a great responsibility to review these major brands so that the consumer has somewhat of an idea what they are purchasing before they lay down their hard-earned bones. We believe in the future, that Panda will be one of those "big brands".
For now... Panda is a young start-up company that is truly putting forth an effort to cater to consumers with a large variety of ecigs and accessories fit for newer users and the more experienced users as well. They have a large selection of products ranging from "cig-a-like-type" ecigarettes that use pre-filled cartomizers and mini-tanks... to the fancier and more powerful "mods" (with a good selection of the cool accessories that go along with them).
They sent us their Panda Evolve Electronic Cigarette starter kit. We've put it under the ECCR microscope and are here to let you know how it rates against other similar "cig-a-like-type" ecigarettes.
What You Get
Priced at $29.99, the Panda Evolve eCigarette Starter Kit Includes:
Panda Evolve E-Cigarette Starter Kit
- 2 - Panda rechargeable 230mah Lithium-ion batteries - choice of automatic or manual and color
- 1 - BONUS Five-pack of cartridges in the flavor and strength of your choice
- 2 - Panda Micromizers (0.9ml)
- 1 - Deluxe USB Charger
- 1 - Two pronged wall adapter
- 1 - Panda User Manual
Includes Free Shipping to US customers, Lifetime Warranty and 30 Day Money Back Guarantee
Packaging and Presentation
If you love Pandas and think they are just too cute and cuddly, you'll probably love Panda eCigs' packaging. You'll find the Panda logo and bamboo leaves stamped on the outside of the box and all over their accessories and their respective boxes. The main box is of the standard magnetic flip-top variety, so nothing there is really going to knock your socks off. With that said, it is a quality box and is packed neatly.
If you'd like to get a real good look at the box and it's contents live, please take a few minutes to watch the review video above this text review. The text review and the video review each have separate nuggets of info in them. To get the full picture, you'll want to examine each piece of information we provide for you on this page.
Overall, Panda's packaging and presentation is good quality and will truly be appreciated by ecig lovers who also love Pandas.
Panda Cigs
Battery & Charging Performance
The Panda Evolve kit comes with two 72mm (230 mah) lithium-ion ecig batteries. The batteries do not have the familiar circular lines on them to make them look like a cigarette. That's cool though, because the batteries come in a variety of colors (black, stainless steel, pink, blue, red, and white). With the exception of the stainless steel battery, the batteries have a very thin coat of colored rubber on them. It's very nice feel and very similar to the Halo G6 batteries.
Panda eCig has abandoned the old grey battery tips in favor of the newer bling-bling crystal tips. The crystal LED tips on the Panda Evolve batteries extend a bit from the tip of the battery and light up blue. They're actually very nice and there won't be any confusion in public over whether you are vaping or smoking. It's pretty obvious. Especially if you're using the mini-tanks over cartomizers. This is a nice touch and shows forethought on the part of Panda when thinking about how ecigarettes impact others when users are vaping them out in public.
So, enough with the aesthetics...
Let's move on to performance
We have to tell you first off that we really had high hopes for the batteries. After all, some companies offer 180 mah batts and these are a step up to 230mah. It appears though, after multiple testing cycles from fully-charged to dead, that this jump in power did not translate to more puffs. We consistently got 165-190 puffs from the batteries. Compared to other brands this is a bit mediocre. Not bad, but not as long as we'd like. We feel all batteries, with the current level of technology, should at least hit the 200 puff count mark.
Knowing that ecig companies count puffs based on 3-second pulls on the ecig, maybe they figured they had their batteries over 200 puffs. E-cig companies need to pay attention to real-world testing and stop testing them based on a mechanical machine. Either that, or move up to 4 second puffs to be more realistic. Better to underestimate and pleasantly surprise (and not be accused of inflating puff counts), than to overestimate and disappoint.
Just know that you may want to order more batteries to have on hand. At the time of this review, Panda does not have a PCC (Personal Charging Case) for their Evolve batteries. No worries though, their batteries are listed at $7.95 a piece. At that price, it's pretty economical to pick up a few extra batteries if you choose to purchase the Panda Evolve System.
The charger weighs in at approximately 2 hours to charge from fully-depleted to fully-charged. Pretty good. It falls right in there amongst the others. Anything quicker than 2 hours is a bonus.

Refill Cartridge Efficiency
Let's first clear up a possible misconception here. There a few sites out there that have already posted their Panda Evolve reviews. Some of them are not letting prospective Panda Evolve customers know that the Panda Evolve does indeed offer pre-filled cartomizers in addition to blank cartomizers that you can refill yourself. So, just to set the record straight, we want you to know that you have some great options with the Panda Evolve.
You can refill using your own smoke juice with the blank cartos and mini-tanks- or you can order the much more convenient (but sometimes less performing) pre-filled cartomizers.
Panda seems to be open and willing to let people try their ejuices- or let them use another company's ejuice, even with their own product...
Unlike other companies out there that seem to have a virtual monopoly on their product (read: e-juice and cartomizers), Panda seems to be open and willing to let people try their ejuices- or let them use another company's ejuice, even with their own product. For that alone, we salute them. The market needs to be consumer-driven. One that strives to give customers what they want. It's win-win for the consumer and the merchant. Happy customers means more sales.
ECCR plans on adding a specific ejuice review section at some point in the future, but we haven't really focused on that. We do, however, want to mention that Panda has a nice selection of flavors. Their eliquid is actually pretty good for a company that doesn't tout that they specialize in eliquids. One thing we found really cool is that Panda is offering the RY4 flavor in even the pre-filled e-cig cartomizers. RY4 is a fav of ours and it's super cool to see them offering that in a pre-filled cartomizer. Previously, it was mostly only available to those who choose to drip.
With that said, let us move on to the cartomizer and mini-tank performance data uncovered in the process of completing this e-cigarette review.
With many companies adding mini-tanks and different size cartomizers (such as XL versions which hold more eliquid) it's causing those who review electronic cigarettes to work harder. The Panda Evolve is one of those cases. Not only did we have to test the different flavor cartomizers, we also had to switch over like it was totally new ecig and test different eliquids in the mini-tanks. Effectively two reviews in one. It's products like these that will separate the lazy reviewers from those who do the work. At ECCR- we've done the work so you don't have to. Shameless plug? Yes- but a necessary one for a consumer searching for the truth about a certain brand.
This is what we came up with after multiple cycles of testing on cartomizers and mini-tanks:
Pre-Filled Cartomizers:
- 80 puffs and flavor starts to weaken
- 115 puffs another drop off in flavor
- 125 burnt taste
- 135 max- burnt out
Mini-Tanks (Clearomizers):
-About 90-120 puffs out of a full mini-tank (approximately .9 - 1ml of eliquid)
With a maximum amount of puffs (we'll be nice here as we take long puffs...) coming in around 150 for the pre-filled cartomizers, you may want to think about refilling by using the mini-tanks or ordering some blank cartomizers. It's so easy and you can top off your ejuice whenever you want to. Very nice. With the mini-tanks, you can actually see how much eliquid is left.
Speaking of the mini-tanks, be sure not to let the ejuice run lower than .3 or .4mls as you risk burning out the wick or coil. We preferred the mini-tanks over the cartomizers. Using a cartomizer produces quite a bit of that nasty "sucking sound" noise that annoys us all. The mini-tanks have some noise too but not as much as the cartos do.
Vapor production is actually very good with Panda. Not the best, but certainly better than most out there. There is also a nice throat kick on both the pre-filled cartomizers (within the first 80 puffs) and the mini-tanks.

Review Wrap Up & Summary
The Panda Evolve Starter Kit is a decent kit for anyone who is just starting out with e-cigarettes. It gives you the opportunity to not only have the convenience of pre-filled cartomizers, but also includes the mini-tank clearomizers so that you can try out all different kinds of eliquids- even if those eliquids are not made by Panda.
If you should decide to purchase the Panda Evolve e-cig system, we definitely recommend refilling via the mini-tanks or blank cartomizers as the pre-filled cartomizers we tested just didn't last long enough to justify the convenience or price. With Panda's e-liquid prices coming in at $6.95 for a 10ml bottle and $14.95 for a 30ml bottle- you'll be saving money as well as having the ability to top up whenever you want.
If you're looking to use the Panda Evolve with pre-filled cartomizers only, we feel there are better options out there. However, if you are open to refilling with your own eliquid, this is a pretty decent kit. We based our rating on the fact that it is a pre-filled carto system and also a mini-tank system. The pre-filled system would seem overpriced and under-performing- but the tank system is pretty good.
Panda has a very-quickly-growing selection of other products as well (such as eG0-type ecigs and a wide selection of different tanks and coils) that we will be reviewing in the future. Feel free to check out Panda's website. You'll see they are serious about offering variety.
Please take a look at our in-depth video e-cigarette review for a good look at the product contents, live commentary, and a demo of the vapor production. We have also star-rated the qualities of the product with an overall rating as well. Be sure to read the Panda eCig Consumer Reviews page and see what others are saying about the company and their product. Feel free to leave your own review as well.
Happy Vaping!
