The first thing I was aware of was a splitting headache. I groaned as I opened my eyes, staring at the familiar ceiling of the bedroom I shared with Narcissa. I turned my head to the right and was surprised to find the bed empty. I moaned again as I sat up; it felt like I had a hangover. But I could not remember drinking the night before.
Had I had so much to drink I could not remember drinking at all?
Curious…I really could not remember anything about the night before. I swung my legs over the side of the bed, tossed some stray blond hair over my shoulder and went over to the window. Throwing the curtains open, I saw that the sun was just rising. I glanced over my shoulder at the bed again, wondering where Narcissa could be at this early hour.
Wrapping my dressing gown around me, I poked my head into the bathroom. My brow furrowed; not because of Narcissa's absence, but because the bathroom seemed devoid of any of her belongings. Why would my wife remove all her possessions from our bathroom? That would only make sense if she was…
My eyes widened in horror. No, that could not be it. It did not make any sense at all. Had she gone to visit a friend for a while and I had simply forgotten? Surely it was something along those lines. Narcissa would never leave me.
I quickly left the bedroom and wandered down the hall to the library. Not the most likely place to be so early in the morning, but it was close by and Narcissa did enjoy spending time there. Usually with me I thought with a smug smile. But my darling Narcissa was nowhere to be found. As I headed to the stairs, I passed Draco's door and was tempted to knock to see what he knew, but I decided to continue my search downstairs first.
A quick look into each room of the Malfoy Manor proved fruitless. Then I thought of the kitchen; given our lack of a house-elf, she could be making breakfast. I gave the parlor one last check and shook my head. "Where is she?"
"Who, sir?"
Startled by the voice, I jumped and turned sharply. I knew that voice, but I had not heard it in years. But there he was—bat-like ears and bulging eyes and all. "Dobby?" I sneered both in shock and contempt.
"Master," he said with a little bow.
I blinked, expecting the house-elf to vanish. However, Dobby was still standing there, cowering slightly in fear, as he always used to. But he had long been freed from his bonds to the Malfoy family, thanks to the Potter brat. I could not keep myself from asking, "What are you doing here?"
Dobby glanced around nervously. "Dobby heard you ask a question, sir, and thought Dobby was wanted."
I could not help but smile slightly. This was a dream, most likely. Draco would probably appear, a great deal younger and childish, and Narcissa…
Narcissa should have been in bed with me. "Where is Narcissa?" I asked. If Dobby was so willing to help, he may as help me find my wife, dream or not.
Dobby's face fell and he took a step back, very obviously fearing my reaction to whatever he was about to say. "Does Master not remember, sir?"
"Remember what?" I asked impatiently. If this was a dream, Dobby's accurate portrayal was getting rather annoying. Why didn't he just tell me where my wife was?
"The Mistress is…" Dobby took a small step backwards and just out of reach of my foot should I have chosen to kick him. That meant something I was not going to like. "The Mistress has been gone for a year, sir." A sharp pain shot through my heart. "She was killed in an attack by the Order of the Phoenix, sir."
I felt the blood rush from my face and my heart pound. But that was a lie. The war was over—the Dark Lord had lost. Why would the Order attack us now? And a year ago? That made no sense at all.
Taking a few deep breaths, I remembered my theory that this was a dream. Apparently it was more of a nightmare. "You're lying," I said simply. Dobby shook his head sadly. "This is a dream," I muttered, more to myself than to the servant. "This has to be a dream—a nightmare. Soon I will wake up and Narcissa will be next to me…"
Dobby shook his head again, taking another step back. "Dobby is sorry, sir, as always, sir."
I stared at the house-elf as the pain of his news overcame me. For a dream, this felt all too real. The pain of half of me being dead, my lover torn away from me…I had to wake up from this nightmare. It was too much to bear.
Sensing movement behind me, I stiffened, trying to glance behind me without whomever it was noticing. "Draco?"
Wincing, my son turned to me. "Yes, Father?" For a moment I was speechless—his appearance was not at all what I remembered. Only his pale, pointed face was the same. His hair was longer and tied back as I often tied mine. He was wearing a dark cloak that hid most of his body completely from view, but from what I could tell, he was much more muscular than the Draco I remembered. And his eyes were dead. No, not completely dead…but the only emotion I could see behind them was fear. And then a strange thought struck me.
He was afraid of me.
But why would my son be giving me the same look Dobby had been giving me when he had informed me of Narcissa's death?
The searing pain I felt in my heart could not be compared to anything I had felt before. But I had to remember that this was a dream. It had to be. Dobby was not a servant in my Manor, Narcissa was not dead, and my son was not afraid of me.
"Where is Narcissa?"
Draco refused to look me in the eye. "Father…the attack…"
"As Dobby told you, sir," Dobby said quietly.
My hands clenched, and anger suddenly welled up inside of me. Narcissa was not dead! Why did they keep telling me that?
I was hardly aware that I had moved when my foot suddenly impacted with Dobby's head. The house-elf gave a little squeal of pain, but did not run or plead. He merely braced himself for another strike, as though expecting more blows to follow, like it happened all the time.
Like it happened all the time…
I turned to look at my son again, an eyebrow arched with morbid curiosity. Draco flinched and slid a foot backwards, and I now noticed a scar on the side of his face. He had been partially turned the other way before, and I had not seen it. It appeared suspiciously jagged, like something had caught on his skin and torn it.
I instinctively flexed the muscles in my hand, glancing down at my wedding ring before looking at Draco again. My eyes suddenly went back down to the ring. I ran a finger over it, feeling the small bit of metal that was out of place. It gave the ring character, in Narcissa's opinion, so I never had it fixed. But looking up at my son's scar made me realize that I had hit him, and the ring had caused extra damage.
But I never hit my son. I had struck him once, when he was excessively rude to his mother at a party when he was seven, but that had not left a mark. The way Draco was looking at me…he was a young man, not a child, yet he was obviously afraid of me.
I felt the strange urge to strike Draco as he continued avoiding my gaze. I took a deep breath to keep myself under control as I strode up the stairs as quickly as I could and into my room. It was dream, and dreams could be changed. Perhaps if I did what was normal for me, changing clothes and eating breakfast or something, then maybe the dream would turn happier, or at least into daily life.
As I was changing, I suddenly felt a burning pain in my left arm. I dropped the cloak I was holding, cursing in surprise at the pain, and looked at the source.
The Dark Mark.
It was as clear as the day the Dark Lord had returned. And it was burning—he was calling.
That could not be true. The Dark Lord had lost; he had been killed in the battle at Hogwarts. I quickly finished changing and headed downstairs again, completely confused and terrified as to what was happening. The Dark Lord and I were on less than good terms…I think. Then again, I do not remember beating my son, or Dobby being around anymore, or Narcissa being…my breath caught in my throat.
"The room is ready, Father," Draco said quietly, motioning to the dining room.
I stared at him with confusion until there was a sharp knock at the door. My Manor was not the headquarters again…was it? Dobby answered the door and was immediately kicked aside by a young man in his early twenties.
I knew the man instantly, although I did not recognize him. His cold eyes surveyed the room, looking upon Draco and Dobby with distaste, before taking a few steps toward me. "Lucius!" he said, his voice as cold and snakelike as I remembered, although the body it came out of was considerably younger and much better looking.
"My Lord," I said, bowing my head respectfully. What else could I do in the presence of the Dark Lord?
I shivered as the Dark Lord chuckled. "Lucius, my old friend." His hand sent a shudder through my body as he placed it on my shoulder. "How are things at the Ministry? I trust you are enjoying your latest appointment?"
"Yes, my Lord." I tried my best not to stutter, my mind still trying to overcome the shock and horror of the Dark Lord being alive, in my house…and so young! Had I traveled back in time?
No, not with Draco being a young man and Narcissa being dead.
This is not a dream.
The thought caused me to momentarily freeze with terror. Though I had no other explanation for what was happening, I had never had a dream like this, or one that felt so real. I had to believe that this is reality.
"Minister of Magic—a high post. But you served me well—you deserve it."
I have…what? I had been a failure. My family had been decimated because I had failed in one task.
"The others should be arriving soon." As we headed into the dining room, which was set up for a large number of people, the Dark Lord continued. "The Order is beginning to cause problems again. We should have eliminated them before, but apparently our mercy on them has led them to regroup and strike again."
The Dark Lord sat at the head of the table, and it was only then that I noticed the snake at our feet. Nagini curled up on the chair around her master. When I did nothing, the Dark Lord motioned to the chair to his right. Apparently I did something right. But what?
"I thought you would be interested to know that Severus has discovered who killed dear Narcissa."
I turned to him sharply, daring to look him straight in the eyes as pain shot through me. So she was really dead. But Severus wasn't? Moistening my lips, I managed to say, "Who?"
"Your niece, ironically." My brow furrowed. "Nymphadora Tonks. I suppose I can understand that action." I glared at him without thinking of the consequences of such a bold move, but the Dark Lord appeared almost sympathetic. "You did, after all, kill her mate; that werewolf."
"Remus Lupin," I said quietly. But his wife was dead, and I had not killed him…at least, not in the reality I knew. Something had certainly changed.
"She's being left alive for now—I suspect you will want to have revenge."
I nodded, though I was almost numb to the Dark Lord's words as I began to truly understand that my darling Narcissa was dead. She was really gone…
Bellatrix was the first in. She came in and stooped to kiss the hem of the Dark Lord's robes. I wondered how I had forgotten to do that, and then how I had received no anger from the Dark Lord. I was actually in his favor. That had not been true for a long time.
Of course, it should not be true now either, since the Dark Lord was dead…and yet he was not, but he should have been…and Narcissa, my darling Narcissa, should be alive…
What the bloody hell happened?

Scott Ourecky wanted to fly - he never dreamed he'd end up in a secret military space program.
The year is 1968: The Cold War is far from over, and nuclear annihilation is always only a heartbeat away. America is racing the Soviet Union to land men on the moon, a war is raging, and a pivotal presidential election looms on the horizon. A child of the early space age, Lieutenant Scott Ourecky joined the air force with aspirations of going to flight school. A brilliant engineer, he repeatedly fails the aptitude test to become a pilot but is selected to work on a highly classified military space program - the innocuously named Aerospace Support Project - in which air force astronauts are slated to fly missions to intercept and destroy suspect Soviet satellites.
When one of the astronauts in training abruptly falls out of the project, Ourecky is asked to fill in for the two-man simulated missions and survival training only. He's asked to serve with a headstrong and abrasive test pilot, Major Drew Carson, until another astronaut can be assigned. By far the most proficient pilot assigned to the project, Carson has a dangerous propensity to engage in pick-up dog fighting sessions while on cross-country training flights. And although Ourecky was only a temporary place holder, not destined to fly in space, he soon finds himself much more involved than he ever anticipated - and in deepest peril.
Based on a real secret space program, Blue Gemini combines high-altitude action with edge-of-your-seat storytelling to create a modern Cold War thriller.

We were sent a luxury fruit bag and a big vegetable bag from Farmaround on the day I had planned to start weaning Wriggly. Perfect timing!
She had just turned six months old on the day we received the fruit and veg, and I was going to give her organic carrots as her first vegetable, just like her three siblings had had before her.
Her big brother was keen to get involved. He peeled her carrots and cut them with his child safe knife. He also mashed them after I had steamed them, and fed his baby sister. She was not impressed! The weaning process could take a long time with our little lady.
Getting the fruit and veg delivered straight to my door was a real treat. It looked really good and fresh. I also loved the fact the organic goodies arrived in big sacks. I used those for fruit and veg peelings and organic waste and it meant my bin did not get dirty that week.
This is what we used all the organic fruit and vegetables for:
The raspberries just disappeared as soon as I washed them.
Wriggly had most of the carrots puréed as her first solids.
We had some of the carrots and the broccoli with our salmon fillets one night.
One apple, a couple of pears and an orange went into my fruity mincemeat.
We made a vegetarian quiche with the courgettes and plum cherry tomatoes.
Oranges went in mulled wine.
Pineapple, bananas, apples and clementines were used in smoothies.
The pomegranate and a pear gave us a delicious salad.
I also made vegetable soup, mash and served the rest of the broccoli with steak.
The bananas were not nice and the potatoes had to be scrubbed, but other than that, we really enjoyed our two bags.
Just be aware that sometimes, the contents of the bags do not match the list given on the website. When it happens, Farmaround simply add something of equal value to your bag. If you want a specific bag content, they have a 'Pick you own bags' option.
You could win a luxury fruit bag and a big vegetable bag from Farmaround

Amateur sports clubs could gain a total of up to £100 million tax relief if a parliamentary Bill nearing its final stages becomes law - but they will have to register to do so. All clubs registered as Community Amateur Sports Clubs (CASCs) will see their rates cut by a mandatory 80 per cebt if the Local Government Bill is approved.
The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister's spokesman said this week: "We are quietly confident the Bill will succeed, though it must be debated in the Commons. If assent is given, the first rate relief would probably apply from April 2004."
The amendment regarding tax relief for sports clubs is part of a much larger Bill that could provide substantial windfalls for sports clubs.
Currently, councils can chose to levy rates on them at their discretion. Many waive the charge, but struggling ones are more likely to recoup it.
If the Bill is successful, it will be mandatory for local authorities to offer 80 per cent tax relief on business rates to CASCs, with the remaining 20 per cent at their discretion.
Richard Caborn, the sports minister who has been lobbying the Treasury to agree to the rates relief, said: "Increasing levels of participation in sport is in the nation's interest."
Nigel Hook, of the Central Council for Physical Recreation, said: "Amateur sports clubs are vital to nurture the sports stars of the future - Jonny Wilkinson started out at mini-rugby in Hampshire.
"An overwhelming 2,400 CASCs wrote to the Goverment supporting the proposal for rates relief."
Valuable tax relief is already available on donations made to amateur sports clubs. Since April 2002, to bring the clubs into line with charities, they have been able to apply for "Gift Aid" on donations, to receive these gross (before basic rate tax has been deducted).
The club - or charity - effectively claims back £2.80 from the taxman for every £10 donated. Clubs must be registered with the Inland Revenue to qualify for the relief but registration is simple, with just a one-page application form to fill-in and usually takes no more than a month to finalise.
David Shephard, chairman of the Woodford Rugby Club in Essex, with 550 members, said he has already received an additional £8,000 from the revenue after registering for Gift Aid.
Mr Shephard said: "The club is in its 80th year but it is a constant battle to keep our head above water. Gift Aid is an incredibly easy way for us to boost our income. We have been able to cut our debts and the interest charges and really turn the club round."
As a result of generous donations made this year, Mr Shephard is expecting even greater Gift Aid donations on his next application.
"Coupled with relief on our rates, these will be extremely valuable taxbreaks," he said.
Very few clubs have registered so far. Just 460 out of a potential 100,000 CASCs in the UK have done so, said Richard Baldwin, tax partner at chartered accountants Deloitte & Touche.
He added: "The take-up of the existing Gift Aid scheme has been disappointing among amateur sports clubs.
"If every UK club received donations of £4,000 a year and 80 per cent relief on business rates, this could generate over £100m for the clubs. We encourage them to explore these financial opportunities."
- For more information see the Revenue website at www.inlandrevenue.gov.uk which contains details of who qualifies and how to register as a CASC. Application forms can also be downloaded. Or call the Sports Clubs unit on 0131 777 4147.

Five Friends Food Fresh Bar Review !
It all began in Minnesota with twin brothers Ross Pomeroy and Will Handke that are passionate about eating healthy.
It wasn't until 2011 where they began to wonder why there were limited choices of nutrition bars on the market which in fact contained many preservatives and were dry. Ross and Will were distraught rather than giving in to tasteless bars they put on their big boy pants and got to work and Fresh Bar was born!
Fresh bar is an all natural bar that's made with healthy whole ingredients that taste great offering an out of the oven texture like a muffin ! So moist and tasty!
In 2012 Will and Ross welcomed their childhood friends Austin Hinkle, Mike Steffan and Tom Johnson to the Fresh Bar team!
For better shelf life store your Fresh Bars in the refrigerator.
Whenever I'm in a hurry I like something to munch on that's not only healthy, and convenient but delicious and that will satisfy my hunger throughout the day in which I usually reach for a bar because it fills me up and keeps me going!
When I came across Fresh Bars online I just had to try them they sounded so good.
Will was kind enough to send me some of their delicious tasting fresh bars to try for review, I'm telling you if you love baked goods such as muffins and breads you will love Fresh Bars!
Here are the four yummy flavors Fresh Bars come in.
If Fall were a food this would be it. It tastes like a freshly baked muffin that's chock full of shreds of carrots and crunchy pecans with the sweetness of pumpkin!
This bar reminded me of one of my all time favorites for breakfast which are banana chocolate chip pancakes with peanut butter on top! First when you bite into the moist bar you get that banana flavor then creamy peanut butter and sweet chocolate chips baked to perfection!
I loved that there were chunks of cherries throughout each bite in this bar and the crunchy walnuts with the sweetness of pear.
For breakfast this morning I made a yogurt parfait and layered it with cinnamon, raisins along with the bar it made for a delicious and satisfying breakfast to start out the day! The bar paired perfectly with the yogurt it tasted like a dessert, I bet it would be just delicious on ice cream with a drizzle of caramel sauce !
Fresh Bar provided me with samples to facilitate my review, all opinions expressed are my own however yours may differ.

Guinness Premiership
Strettle wings in to bolster Quins
January 30, 2009
David Strettle makes his long-awaited return for Quins against Northampton © Getty Images
Harlequins host Northampton on Saturday, with a win for the visitors sending them above Quins in the Premiership table.
Quins have been bolstered by the return of England wing David Strettle to the starting line-up after a lengthy injury. Strettle comes in on the wing in place of Ugo Monye, who is away on England duty, his first start since October. South African hooker Gary Botha also returns to the starting line-up in pace of the injured Tani Fuga, while Andy Gomarsall deputises for England scrum-half Danny Care.
Having started at fullback against the Scarlets last week Nick Evans returns to fly-half, with Mike Brown returning at No.15. De Wet Barry slots in at outside-centre after injury ruled out Gonzalo Tiesi.
Should Saints register a win they can move above Quins in the table, but they have been dealt a blow with Scotland prop Euan Murray missing out due to a rib injury. Barry Stewart steps into his sizable boots while scrum-half Lee Dickson and wing Paul Diggin both return to the starting line-up.
The Saints will head into the game without Carlos Spencer after it was announced that the former All Black was to leave the club.
"Our home form has been good this season and now the target has to be to take that form away from home," said Saints boss Jim Mallinder. "There is no reason why we can't go away and get a win in any game. Just look at Montpellier a few weeks ago, going to France is never easy but we came away with the points.
"We just have to concentrate on our performance for 80 minutes and the results will come. Most importantly we can not afford to be complacent just because we have had a good January. The team will not be taking anything for granted this weekend."
Harlequins: Ceri Jones, Gary Botha, Mike Ross, Ollie Kohn, George Robson, Chris Robshaw, Will Skinner (capt), Tom Guest, Andy Gomarsall, Nick Evans, David Strettle, Jordan Turner-Hall, De Wet Barry, Tom Williams, Mike Brown

MOLLE Back: This MOLLE back fits both the ESEE-5 and ESEE-6 hard sheaths.Simply align the holes in the lower portion with the holes in the sheath and use the four screws and posts provided to securely fasten the MOLLE back to the sheath. The top of the MOLLE back has both an adjustable handle retention strap and a flap that can be slipped over the pommel end of the knife and secured tight with the paracord and cord lock, making the ESEE-5 or ESEE-6 sheath jump safe.
Both the top portion and lower portion of the MOLLE back have a built in belt loop and have MOLLE straps compatible with the military and LEO PALS system The top portion of the MOLLE back can be removed from the bottom portion by unsnapping the lower MOLLE strap and threading it through the plastic ring holding the two halves of the MOLLE back together. You can then thread the strap back through an extra plastic ring (provided) before re-threading the strap through the lower cross straps to secure it to a belt or gear again.The extra plastic ring allows you to retain the extender capability when only using the lower portion of the MOLLE back. As with any MOLLE strap system always thread the long strap under the last cross strap right above the snap to make sure the snap stays securely fastened.Failure to do so can result in unwanted release of the snap under extreme stress.
This accessory pocket will bolt to the front of the ESEE-5 or ESEE-6 hard sheath by aligning the holes in the pocket with the holes in the sheath and using the provided 4 screws and posts to securely tighten the sheath and pocket together.The screws are long enough to fasten the pocket, sheath and MOLLE back all together. This pocket will hold either the provided tin or a regular Altoids tin, as well as any other gear you can fit into the pocket. You will find many other uses for the pocket by threading paracord through the grommet holes and lashing it to your other gear or packs

77-year-old wins jackpot, robbed walking out
DETROIT (WJBK) - The Detroit Police Department says a 77-year-old man hit the jackpot, only to have it yanked out of his hands before he could get to the car.
Detroit Police say the 77-year-old man won the jackpot last Thursday. He was walking out of a "local establishment" around 9:30 that night when the suspect walked up to him, grabbed the envelope, and ran.
Police say the suspect is a black man, in his 30s, with medium complexion and medium build.
Detroit Police did not say how much money the man had won or what 'local establishment' he was in when he won.
However, they did say that the crime happened in the 2900 block of Grand River Ave, which is the same block that MotorCity Casino is on.
The above picture of the suspect was released to the media. Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Moore at 313-596-1340.

On September 6, 1620, the Mayflower set sail for America with 102 intrepid early settlers bound for the new land across the Atlantic Ocean, a perilous journey which took 66 days to reach what we now know as Cape Cod, Mass.
To mark the 400th anniversary of this undertaking, a team led by U.S.-owned but Plymouth-based firm MSubs, and including Plymouth University and charitable research foundation ProMare, has initiated a plan to design and build a fully autonomous ship to make the same Atlantic crossing, completely unmanned, in 2020. During the voyage, the Mayflower Autonomous Ship – MAS400 – will conduct a series of scientific experiments before arriving at its destination in the U.S. Unlike the original Mayflower however, the final destination isn't America, as the plan is for MAS400 to continue on an unmanned circumnavigation of the globe, eventually returning to its home port of Plymouth.
Silicon Sensing is to provide a package of support to help turn the MAS400 concept into reality. In addition to sponsorship of the project, Silicon Sensing will supply its latest precision MEMS IMU (Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems - Inertial Measurement Unit), the DMU30, to provide the inertial sensing data within the electronic autopilot to help guide MAS400 during its ocean adventures. MSubs and Silicon Sensing have been collaborating on the evaluation of DMU30 for future INS-based surface and subsea navigation solutions for a variety of projects at MSubs.

Today Audi presented the most powerful Audi A8. The Audi A8L W12. 130 millimeters (0.43 ft) longer than the standard-wheelbase version, the new Audi A8 W12 has a 12 cylinder 6.3 FSI engine that generates a total power of 368 kw – 500 hp.
As we can see from the images, this new limousine was clearly made to set new standards of luxury.
Rear-seat area
The full extra length of this sedan benefits rear-seat passengers. The back doors are longer, for even more convenient entry, and the space available inside can only be described as opulent. Rear passenger comfort can be enhanced even more if two separate power-adjustable seats are ordered. These can be heated, ventilated and adjusted in a variety of ways: forward and back, seat cushion depth and seat back angle with top section adjustable separately. There is also a fully adjustable lumbar support. The front passenger's seat can also be moved from the rear if extra space is needed.
Between the individual rear seats that are standard equipment in the Audi A8 L W12 quattro a full-length console can be ordered as an optional extra; it extends back from the center tunnel to the rear shelf, and can be specified with integral items such as a folding table or a refrigerator. Separate controls for the rear air conditioning are also standard. The luxury four-zone automatic air conditioning is controlled by no fewer than 25 adjusting motors.
Another high-end feature of the long-wheelbase Audi A8 is the reclining seat behind the front passenger's seat. The angle of the seat cushion can also be adjusted. The occupant can be massaged by ten air-filled compartments; four programs can be selected at a remote control. The feet rest on a power-adjustable support at the base of the front passenger seat back. Heating, ventilation and the luxury head restraint are integral features of the reclining seat. A folding table, additional wood and leather trim, a refrigerator and a Rear Seat Entertainment system with two 10.2-inch screens are among the features that promote relaxed travel or alternatively concentrated work in this mobile lounge.
The Audi A8 L W12 quattro: The powerplant
The first-generation A8 was available with an engine of this type from 2001 on, and a developed version could be obtained from 2004 on in the following model. Audi's engineers have now thoroughly revised the W12. Its displacement has been increased, and gasoline direct injection boosts its output and its efficiency.
The 6.3 FSI engine has an output of 368 kW (500 hp) and delivers its peak torque of 625 Nm (460.98 lb-ft)
The EU cycle test of cpmpsumption result is only 12.0 liters per 100 kilometers (19.6 US mpg).
The engine is known as the W12 because of its unusual layout: it has four rows of three cylinders with a 15-degree included angle between the two offset rows of cylinders in each broad cylinder block. The V angle between the two blocks is 72 degrees. This layout makes the W12 engine exceptionally compact: only just over 50 centimeters (19.69 in) long and therefore distinctly shorter than a V8. Height and width are both in the region of 70 centimeters (27.56 in). Its bore and stroke are 86.0 and 90.4 millimeters (3.39 x 3.56 in) respectively. Compared with the previous version the engineers have enlarged the cylinder bore. The forged crankshaft has a 12-degree angle of crankpin offset, so that the mixture in the 12 cylinders is ignited at the ideal interval of 60 degrees. The W12 engine weighs 247 kilograms (545 lb).
Inside tech
Two large monitor screens, one on the instrument panel and one on the center console, acts as control centers and display their information as high-resolution 3D graphics.
The high-end navigation system cooperates with the assistance and safety systems in an innovative way. It registers the topography of the road in advance and makes this data available to the control units for the automatic transmission, headlights and adaptive cruise control with Stop & Go function. Thanks to their advanced intelligence, these systems can identify complex scenarios and offer the driver support in good time. The Audi side assist system, which helps the driver to change lanes, and Audi lane assist which detects any departure from the chosen lane, also have new and additional performance features.
The night view assistant uses a thermal imaging camera to identify persons on the road ahead of the car. If it considers the situation to be potentially dangerous, the image of the person on the road is shown in red and a warning signal is heard. The Audi pre sense safety system is also closely linked to the assistance systems. It is available in several stages: the full version brakes the car automatically in order to minimize the consequences of a nose-to-tail collision.
In the multimedia area, Audi can also supply many attractive modules. These include a Bang & Olufsen Advanced Sound System with an output rating of more than 1,400 Watts and 19 speakers, and the Rear Seat Entertainment system. This has an MMI control panel on the console between the rear seats and provides access to all the infotainment functions on board this large luxury sedan.
The new Online services in cooperation with Google use the car phone to capture news and current information on the weather or points of interest (POI) from the Internet. Later this year an UMTS module will be available: this fast data link can supply images and information from Google Earth to the monitor screen and combine them with the navigation route. The driver can use all these services with his or her cell-phone contract.

Reviews of Northport Mold Removal Contractors
Tuscaloosa, AL
Kevin, was prompt in everything that he did and kept me informed continually throughout the project. He was very thorough in his analysis of the problems and in developing a plan to address the problem not only for now, but also for the future.
Warrior, AL
He showed up as per appointment, gave his estimate, then did just as he said he would for the price stated. I would call again if I needed the service.
Northport, AL
PuroClean came out to my house within a week of my notification on Home Advisor to give me an estimate on cleaning the mold from my crawl space. He was polite and respectful and professional. He explained everything that this company was going to do and why. With mold, I know that it is very important that the job is done right. I have done a lot of research into this area and understood from our conversation that PuroClean knew how to remove mold correctly. A couple of guys came out a few days later and worked for most of the morning under the house. When I checked in, both guys were polite and explained to me what they found and what they were going to do about it. The told me that I didn't have a moisture barrier under the newer side of the house, which is something I didn't even know. This is a new house to us, and the home inspector didn't even catch that. The technicians also told me the best moisture barrier to get and how to install it. I am so happy with the way I was treated, sometimes men don't treat women very well when it comes to home repair, and the job that was completed. I have complete confidence that once I get that moisture barrier down this weekend that any mold will be stalled because of the procedures that PuroClean used. And, if I find any additional mold somewhere else, I am calling them immediately. I have already referred them to a friend who has had a similar great experience (well, as good as an experience can be when one is dealing with mold).

The features containing hair are all made from small cactus plants that require very little maintenance yet last for many years with little water. No other card can last longer and provide you with the long term sentiments that you want to express. The recipient of your Cactus Beard Card will admire your gift day after day, year after year. Each time they glance at the beautiful card you gave them, they will have a hearty chuckle and think of you. Each card runs between four and seven dollars, depending on the size of the card and the breed of the cactus.

Keanu Reeves to Wed Girlfriend at Hollywood Home?
Romantic movie The Lake House has given Keanu Reeves the impetus to get down on a bended knee and propose to his girlfriend Claire Forlani, according to new reports.
After discovering how much newlywed pal and co-star Sandra Bullock loves married life to TV mechanic Jesse James, Reeves started talking candidly about his own marriage plans–and he means business.
According to the National Enquirer, Reeves has proposed to Meet Joe Black beauty Forlani after quietly dating the actress for three years.
A source says, "Keanu didn't work up the nerve to propose until last week."
The actor reportedly flashed his famous smile and asked Forlani to marry him over dinner at celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck's new Hollywood restaurant Cut.
And insiders claim the wedding venue, tentatively planned for late next year, will be the mansion the actor is renovating in the Hollywood Hills–just down the street from the estate Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston called home when they were married.
'Engaged' Reeves Spotted with Ex
Keanu Reeves has been spotted getting close up to Amanda De Cadenet in London, just days after he reportedly proposed to girlfriend Claire Forlani.
The Matrix heartthrob was briefly engaged to British TV presenter-turned-photographer De Cadenet in 1996 before he went on to romance Carrie-Anne Moss and Jennifer Syme, who died in a car accident in 2001.
But they have remained close over the years and the 41-year-old talked at length with his old flame backstage at the O2 Wireless Festival in London's Hyde Park yesterday.
Reeves reportedly proposed to Forlani last week, after quietly dating the Meet Joe Black beauty for three years.
He recently said, "I want to get married. I want to have kids."
De Cadenet split from The Strokes guitarist Nick Valensi last summer and was previously married to Duran Duran star John Taylor.

Furnished lettings: Wear & tear allowance -2011/12 onwards
This legislation applies to 2011/12 onwards for income tax payers and for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 April 2011 for corporation tax payers.
Taxpayers can elect to deduct a wear and tear allowance as an expense of their property business.
This election means that instead of claiming relief for replacing utensils, or repairing furniture, the taxpayers deduct an allowance calculated as a percentage of rents received.
The option to elect for a wear and tear allowance is only available for lettings of furnished dwelling houses.
The term "dwelling house" takes its everyday meaning which is set out in the Capital allowances manual at CA11520.
To qualify as a furnished residential letting the property has to be a dwelling house that is let with sufficient furniture, furnishings and equipment for normal residential use.
Where a furnished dwelling house is sublet, only one landlord in the chain can claim the wear and tear allowance. This is the first landlord in the chain who is eligible to claim the relief.
A lets a property to B, complete with fully fitted kitchen, carpets and curtains. In turn B installs sufficient beds, chairs, tables and other equipment to allow normal residential use and lets the property as student accommodation.
B can make a wear and tear allowance election as A did not let the property with sufficient furnishings so as to allow "normal residential use".
C lets a property to D. The property is let complete with furniture and equipment. In turn D sublets the property to an employee who can simply move in as there are sufficient beds, chairs, tables and other equipment to allow normal residential use.
D cannot make a wear and tear allowance election as C let the property to D complete with sufficient furnishings so as to allow "normal residential use".
Guidance on how the allowance is calculated can be found at PIM3210.
Guidance making a claim for the allowance can be found at PIM3215.

The Fugue is the 14th session that the group organizes. It will start a new chapter in OuUnPo's history marking the return to Europe after ambitious sessions in Beirut (2012), Tokyo (2013) and Sao Paulo (2014). The Stockholm session will be composed as a fugue and will allow art and science to enter into a novel dialogue. The session takes its starting point in the fugue state, which is a rare psychiatric disorder that is characterized by complete but reversible amnesia. The patient will lose all traces of personal memory and identity and can last hours or several days. It is characteristic that people suffering from dissociative fugue to undertake unplanned travel or wandering during which the patient might establishment a temporary new identity.
The Stockholm session is structured as a polyphonic music formula including interventions by scientists, visual artists, musicians, philosophers, researchers and curators. We will open the week together with the exhibit Artists Adrift at Bonniers konsthall, where we will explore our overlapping themes in conversations with the exhibiting artists, as well presenting two sonic installations by Elena Nemkova and Natasha Rosling. Psychiatrist and neuroscientist Predrag Petrovic will give a public lecture on our constantly changing reality at the old nuclear power plant 30 meters underneath KTH, followed by a course on escapism through screenings of short movies curated by Elena Nemkova. Italian artist Jacopo Miliani, artist-in-residence at MDT, and together with Jean-Louis Huhta, Sanna Söderholm and Carima Neusser, has created a dance universe at the Dance Museum that will deceive our vision and explore our sense of darkness. At the Italian Cultural Institute music psychologist and neuroscientist Laszlo Harmat will lecture on the parallels between the fuga and the organization of the brain, followed by a musical performance of Bach fuga by Anna Buchenhorst of the Stockholm Royal Opera, just to name a few! Each event is freestanding and self-contained so that a visitor can choose to attend a single activity, a whole day or the entire session.
The festival creates a collage of events as it moves across the city. The participation of local contributors, spaces, institutions and audiences will offer opportunities for new alliances and generate unexpected and novel constellations. The group will investigate institutions and collections in an reflective manner but while also seeking out situations for interesting challenges as well as other forms of interventions. OuUnPo invites you on a journey through well-known places, where identities can be dissolved and merged only to re-appear to give new light to age-old problems.
The session is curated by Stephen Whitmarsh with Eléna Nemkova, along with curatorial assistance by Susanne Ewerlöf.
Participants and contributors
Anders Widoff, Anna Buchenhorst, Antoine Bertin, Arijana Kajfes, Claudia Squitieri, Gustav Nilsonne, Elena Nemkova, Elias Arner, Henrik Sputnes, Iréne Berggren, Jacopo Miliani, Jean-Luis Huhta, Laslzo Hamat, Marco Pasi, Natasha Rosling, Olav Westphalen, Per Hüttner, Pina Kingman, Predrag Petrovic, Samon Takahashi, Sara Giannini, Stephen Whitmarsh, Susanne Ewerlof, Thomas Nordmark, Vilma Luostarinen and many more.

Staying here was a unique experience. For Ft. Lauderdale, this hotel is very inexpensive. It was clean, and fairly well maintained. But....
I talked to the gentleman at the front desk, and he said that he believed that this was originally part of John Knox Village, a geriatric facility located adjacent to the "hotel". The building served as a geriatric rehab/hospital facility for John Knox. John Knox sold the building to Marie Green, who donated it upon her death to a Christian Missionary group. The group uses most of the building for various missionary functions, including a conference center; but decided to operate left-over space as a hotel. Since it is run by Christian missionaries, there is no smoking or drinking allowed (which was fine with me.)
The rooms are old converted hospital rooms. You can tell this because they are arranged in a circle around an open circular area, which was obviously formerly a nursing station. Our room had a flat-screen TV, new appointments, but there were some worn spots on the blanket and the bed was very soft. However I would come back here.
A breakfast was included. This consisted of frozen bagels arranged near two toaster stations, cream cheese, butter, frozen waffles, cereals, milk, juice and coffee. The breakfast area is setup like a cafeteria with some really retro furnishings - the kind you would have found 50 years ago in a dinner; but new and clean.
Beware that finding this hotel is difficult without a GPS. It is adjacent to I95, but you have to go on a number of local roads to get to an exit. Map it out first.
Overall, if you can put up with the weirdness, this is a good deal.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The Forum is a full-service lodging and conference facility that welcomes families and business personnel for daily, weekly and even monthly stays. With 47 guest rooms and suites, relaxing community lounges, a long list of amenities, and our non-alcohol policy creates a safe and peaceful environment right in the heart of South Florida.

James Madison on "Parchment Barriers"
Even the "Father of the Constitution" knew that a separation of powers wouldn't be enough to limit the federal government.Details
Even the "Father of the Constitution" knew that a separation of powers wouldn't be enough to limit the federal government.Details
The Founding Fathers were virtually unanimous in their strong opposition to war as a policy. Few were more adamant about this view than James Madison.Details
At least one leading founding father not only thought it was possible, but considered it the norm.Details
"Here's the short version. Constitutions don't enforce themselves. And governments will never limit their own power."Details
Under the Constitution, the president was delegated the authority to execute laws passed by Congress, not create them with the stroke of a pen.Details
In 2016, the world will witness a Civil War. However, it will not on be fought on the streets of America, but on the big screen. Marvel's Civil War is destined to draw huge money all over the world – and I do not think its theme could be timelier. This movie is based off…Details
Because the federal government – including the federal courts – is a creature of the people of the states, its opinion can never be the final word on what is constitutional or not.Details
Most people today have no sense of how small the federal government is actually supposed to be. But a 19th century veto from President James Madison helps explain.Details
In this episode of Thoughts from Maharrey Head, I tell you how we can limit federal power based on James Madison's blueprint.Details
The Constitution. Every issue, every time. No exceptions, no excuses.

Through social media he reconnects with Jenny Kramer, an old flame, and embarks on a night that will change his ways forever. Or maybe not.
