Weird Astronomical Theories of the Solar System and Beyond
Springer | Popular Astronomy | January 27, 2016 | ISBN-10: 3319252933 | 270 pages | pdf | 8.1 mb
Authors: Seargent, David
Covers a variety of unconventional theories about the formation of the Solar System, the introduction of life on Earth, the nature of comets, and more
Maintains an approachable, informal and non-technical tone accessible to non-specialists
Continues the author`s well-received "Weird" series, including "Weird Weather," "Weird Astronomy," "Weird Worlds," and "Weird Universe"
After addressing strange cosmological hypotheses in Weird Universe, David Seargent tackles the no-less bizarre theories closer to home. Alternate views on the Solar System`s formation, comet composition, and the evolution of life on Earth are only some of the topics he addresses in this new work. Although these ideas exist on the fringe of mainstream astronomy, they can still shed light on the origins of life and the evolution of the planets. Continuing the author`s series of books popularizing strange astronomy facts and knowledge, Weird Astronomical Theories presents an approachable exploration of the still mysterious questions about the origin of comets, the pattern of mass extinctions on Earth, and more. The alternative theories discussed here do not come from untrained amateurs. The scientists whose work is covered includes the mid-20th century Russian S. K. Vsekhsvyatskii, cosmologist Max Tegmark, British astronomers Victor Clube and William Napier, and American Tom Van Flandern, a specialist in celestial mechanics who held a variety of unusual beliefs about the possibility of intelligent life having come from elsewhere. Despite being outliers, their work reveals how much astronomical understanding is still evolving. Unconventional approaches have also pushed our scientific understanding for the better, as with R.W. Mandl`s approaching Einstein with regard to gravitational lensing. Even without full substantiation (and some theories are hardly credible), their hypotheses allow for a new perspective on how the Solar System became what it is today.

Bel Air Nursing & Rehab Center is a very small nursing home and a very nice, very modern, and very up-to-date place. So far, it's been good, though it's only been a very short time.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

I am a friend or relative of resident
My Mom was at this facility and they took great care of her. All the staff went out of their way to make her comfortable and to make sure her needs were being met. The staff are very active and involved with all the people living there and the administration is very visible. From first hand experience I highly recommend..

I am/was a resident of this facility
Bel-Air is a small facility that provides exceptional care. The staff are very well trained and provide more than just care they provide a family. The management is very easy to access and are actively involved in all aspects of care being delivered. I was very skeptical about going to a small facility at first but my concerns were quickly overcome by the overall professionalism of the staff. In fact I was a resident on two separate occasions and I couldn't have been in better hands. Everyone at the facility was great. As a former resident I highly recommend and will use again if my needs change. Great job!

I am a friend or relative of resident
I am a nurse of 14 years. Have also worked at this facility through an agency a couple of times (some years ago) and currently have a grandmother living there. I can tell you Bel Air is consistently one of the best-If not THE BEST nursing homes I have worked in or visited. They are so kind and caring to not only my loved one, but also her family members. It is clean and managed right. The staff care about their residents, and truly enjoy them. I love this place. My mother and I recommend it to everyone we know needing a great placement for their loved ones.
June 23, 2012
I visited this facility
I was alway more then happy to make trips out to the home. I would often enter the biulding and find the residents in the common room playing games and enjoying eachothers company. The over all atmosphere in light and happy, there were smiling faces all over the biulding when I would come in. I enjoyed being a part of the facility, the upper managment were always doing everything they could to make sure that the home remained as comfortable and home like as posible for the residents and the staff. It was a productive and safe place for people to live and know that they will recieve the care that they need without the residents losing their sence of self and independce. Also it lets the residents family know that thier loved ones will get the care they need and deserve. Its hard for a family to come to terms with the fact that thier loved one needs care that is beyond thier ability to provide. So they can rest easy knowing the quility of care they will be reciving here.

text: I wanted a disney backpack or daypack as it may be called but didn't buy it while I was there. Is there a way to still get some of the items seen there somewhere else? This is not a kids backpack, more of adult. It said Disney World 2007 on it and had a draw string at the top. Thanks


text: A good friend of mine just moved into a new place with a big kitchen. She was recently married so she has every gadget imaginable and wants to start cooking. She is a novice and asked me to recommend some cookbooks. Does anyone have any in mind? She likes the ones with pictures and no fuss, delicious recipes.

On November 20, 1913, the Lincoln Sentinel published an entire edition dedicated to all aspects of Lincoln – its business and businessmen, churches, schools, industry and history. The tone is frankly boosterish; while the purpose of the edition is not stated, it likely was used as a way to advertise the town and to recruit new residents – and to please its advertisers.
This was a boom time for the town of Lincoln. There were at least eight physicians practicing; the town boasted three banks, many law firms and real estate and insurance agents, a wide array of grocery stores and mercantiles, three lumber yards, several candymakers, a laundry service, an ice plant, a movie house, two dealers in musical instruments, a mill, a taxi service, an ice cream parlor and a host of restaurants. Lincoln's population reached its zenith in the early 20
century and its residents had every reason to believe their town, and their county, would only continue to grow.
That was not the case. Nearly 60 years later, when the transcriber of this series was growing up in Lincoln, there was still an active downtown, but nothing approaching the standard of 1913. There were two physicians, two grocery stores, two banks, a movie house that later closed, and a few restaurants.
But for those of you whose families were a part of Lincoln in those heady, prosperous days, and those of you who know Lincoln only in its later years and have trouble imagining such a thriving business district, this series hopefully will give you a glimpse into the past of your ancestors – or your hometown.

Michigan Wolverines vs. Wisconsin Badgers Pick, Odds, Prediction- 2/16/14
Wisconsin Badgers (20-5) at Michigan Wolverines (18-6)
College Basketball: Sunday, February 16, 2014 at 1:00 pm (Crisler Center)
The Line: Michigan Wolverines -4 -- Over/Under: See the Latest Odds
The Michigan Wolverines and the Wisconsin Badgers face off on Sunday in Ann Arbor in Big Ten college basketball.
The Michigan Wolverines have won two of their last three games and remain tied for first place in the Big 10 standings. Michigan is 10-2 in the Big Ten, 10-1 at home this season, and 4-4 against teams ranked in the top 25. Nik Stauskas is the Wolverines leading scorer averaging 16.9 points per game. Glenn Robinson III is averaging 12.9 points, Caris LeVert us averaging 12.5 points, and Derrick Walton Jr. is averaging 8.8 points. Michigan is averaging 75.5 points and they are shooting 48.1 percent while defensively they are allowing 4.4 points and their opponents are shooting 43.5 percent. Michigan has their rematch with rival Michigan State up next in what should be for first place in the conference.
Mary Langenfeld-USA TODAY Sports
The Wisconsin Badgers have won their last three games in a row and they appear to have stopped their mid season skid. Wisconsin is 7-5 in the Big Ten, 8-2 away from home this season, and they are ranked 21st in the nation. Sam Dekker is the Badgers leading scorer averaging 13.4 points and 6.0 rebounds. Ben Brust is averaging 13.2 points, Frank Kaminsky is averaging 12.5 points and 6.0 rebounds, and Traevin Jackson is averaging 10.7 points. Wisconsin is averaging 73.2 points and they are shooting 45.8 percent while defensively they are allowing 63.4 points and their opponents are shooting 42.4 percent. Wisconsin is 5-2 against teams ranked in the top 25.
Michigan is 9-4-1 against the spread in their last 14 games, 5-1-1 against the spread in their last seven home games, and 1-3-1 against the spread in their last five home games against a team with a road winning percentage over .600. Wisconsin is 5-2 against the spread in their last seven road games, 1-4 against the spread against the Big Ten, and 0-4 against the spread following a win. The underdog has covered the point spread in the last five meetings of these two.
While the revenge factor plays big here, Michigan plays bigger and I am on the Wolverines.

While Rolling Hills Estates (Calif.) Palos Verdes Peninsula was mysteriously absent from the event, archrival Rolling Hills Estates (Calif.) Palos Verdes attracted attention in bringing two behemoth prospects in 6-foot-5, 285-pound lineman Jimmie Carmack, and 6-foot-4, 280-pound offensive lineman Chris Aaron.
Carmack, a defensive tackle/offensive guard who was listed as a "Junior to Watch" by BruinBlitz.com last December, benches 365, power cleans 275, squats 500, and runs a 5.4 in the 40.
Carmack has seen his recruitment take off like dry shrubbery in forest fire. He told us he has heard repeatedly from over 25 D-I schools, including all of the Pac-10, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Colorado and San Diego State. He visited Wisconsin but couldn't envision himself there, realizing he wanted to stay closer to home.
Article Continues Below
While Cal, Oregon and ASU lead for his services, Carmack told us that if UCLA had any more room for a big man, he'd have them up in front of his short list, as well. He is just shy of a 3.0 and passed his ACT.
Aaron, meanwhile, told us he is headed out of town, with Northwestern, Mizzou and Army leading his choices, despite the entire Ivy League hotly pursuing him.
Small wonder for Aaron is sporting a 4.2 GPA, with 1710 SAT, and 25 ACT scores. He power cleans 230, squats 420 runs a 5.6 in the 40.
Always known for their well-disciplined offensive and defensive lines, Manhattan Beach (Calif.) Mira Costa took the linemen strength and agility competition as well as the seven-on-seven passing competition.
David DeCordova is a 6-foot-1, 240-pound defensive tackle/offensive guard who is being recruited by the likes of Fresno State, Oregon, Washington State, and UNLV. He benches 285, squats 405, and runs a 5.2:40. Carrying a 2.8 GPA, DeCordova plans to take his SAT and ACT tests come September.
Undoubtedly the tallest defensive tackle in all the South Bay if not Southern California, is Mira Costa's 6-foot-8, 290-pound Keith Tate, who despite his height has only played football for a short time.
Mira Costa Coach Don Morrow, whose teams are disciplined in the weight room as well as on the field, is encouraging Tate to add muscle to his lanky frame, so whether Tate remains at defensive tackle or evolves into a tight end or offensive tackle remains to be seen.
Mira Costa athlete prospect Bruce Robinson was slightly injured and did not compete, yet has said that Oregon, UNLV and Washington now lead for his services.

text: HTC O2 Desire with 2.2 upgrade All seems to be ok except for a Calendar problem. I tried to use HTC Synch, want to move apps to sd card, and managed to add extra anniversaries to my calendars i.e Outlook, Google and Desire. Outlook and Google had duplicate anniversaries and Desire has triplicate!! Before I reconnect my Desire to my pc via HTC sync I need to resolve the triplication problem i.e. get my Desire to sync with Google calendar via my gmail acccount. I edited the online Google calendar and left that to synch with desktop Outlook via its normal sych routine. Outlook did ask one question; should it delete 169 items. I answered yes and Outlook updated. During this time I switched off synch on my Desire. I then tried to sych Desire to Google via my home wifi but without success. It seems that Desire synch will not stay up. The synch symbol shows for a few seconds then goes either using manual or autosynch; wifi is there all the time and I have a connection to my ISP i.e I can surf all I want using the wifi router connected to my desktop. Desire wifi signal shown as full strength. I notice that if I manually synch my Desire the sync symbol against "Sync Calendar" stays on for some 15 seconds (but is not rotating after the symbol disappears from the top of the screen) whereas for Gmail and contacts the symbols quickly go out suggesting that more activity is taking place in calendar? Also the sync symbol at the top of the screen matches for contacts and Gmail but goes out after a few seconds for Calendar i.e does not stay on for 15 seconds. I have powered down my Desire several times to see if a reboot will cure the problem. Google synch must have worked in order to get the triplicate events. I have sent an email from another account to my gmail account and it has shown up in Thunderbird on my desktop and on mail on my Desire. A new contact I created on Google contacts on my Desktop browser is now synced onto my Desire. Only Calendar refuses to sync. This morning I have deleted an event from Google Calendar but it is still showing in Desire Calendar. Any advice please?

Get more details on the Pretty Woman Musical moving forward on the flip…
Garry Marshall who directed Pretty Woman back in 1990 had recently finished a re-write for the musical. Garry Marshall had been working on bringing the Pretty Woman Musical to life for the past few years. We at Celebnmovies247.com would expect that Garry would want the creative team to move forward and finish what he started. It will be a wonderful tribute to his dreams for the stage show to become a reality.
Paula Wagner who is his co-producer told The Hollywood reporter, "He took great pride and delight from Pretty Woman and I know he would have wanted us to continue on and therefore we will bring this story to Broadway. Pretty Woman the Musical will be a reminder of his humanity, his heart and his sense of humor."
Marshall revealed in April that he would be putting Hairspray director Jerry Mitchell in charge of his project and that rocker Bryan Adams along with his songwriting partner Jim Vallance would handle composing the score for the Pretty Woman musical. Vallance said, "We woke up this morning to the sad news that he'd had passed away. It's devastating. "He went on to say, "It was such an honor to have known and worked with him. He was the sweetest man you can imagine, just a lovely guy, still putting in a full day at the age of 81. I'm really going to miss him."
The Canadian hit maker Adams put this up on twitter, "R.I.P. Garry Marshall. It was a privilege to work with you. #PrettyWoman." Ironically, Bryan Adams has praised Marshall with Billboard earlier in the week with much praise over the director for his talents. Adams said, "What a sweetheart he is. You wouldn't believe it. He wasn't at the original audition that we did, but he was very much a part of this. Just brilliant to work with."
We will be waiting for the Pretty Woman Musical to come to the stage as we are sure many will be. We would say that he will be watching from above with a smile knowing the show must and will go on. Celebnmovies247 sends condolences, love and support to all. Are you planning to see the Pretty Woman musical?

Mike is a fantastic photographer and also a great friend to our company. We're inspired by his transition from the 9-5 world of accounting to a full-time career in a field as creative and demanding as photography, and are lucky to have partnered with him on many weddings over the years. Mike has lots of great advice and insight on weddings and the importance of passionate, committed vendors. Here's Mike!
How did you get started in the wedding business? I was actually an accountant until 7 years ago. I decided I had to do what I loved and hoped it would pay the bills. I'd done it the other ways and wasn't a happy camper! So, right after we built a new house and the recession hit, I quit my job! Scariest thing ever! I did a little photography on the side, mostly college and pro sports and did model test shoots for some magazines. I never thought I'd want to shoot a wedding because of a bad experience with my wedding photographer. I never wanted to be that guy who was always interrupting the flow of the day. However, a friend asked me to shoot his wedding and I accepted for way too little! I thought I was going to be totally fine with my one camera, 2 lenses, 1 battery and a flash. When I got there I freaked out. There were several hundred guests and they all expected formals with the bride and groom. I had to get on the phone and reach out to photographers I didn't even know to help me get through the day. I got it done, and everybody was happy, but it taught me that wedding photography was everything I had always been looking for; emotionally rewarding, physically challenging, technical, artistic, socially enlightening and fun!
What do you do when you are not working? I love to ride my road bike, hike, go traveling and kayaking. I love nature! Even when I am not working, I still carry my iPhone and get some really awesome photos with it. A lot of people follow me on Facebook and Instagram just to see my iPhone images.
How would you describe your approach to weddings? Organic and creative. Every wedding is different as is every client, so my approach is very much tailored to their personalities. I have an editorial approach to coverage that conveys strong feelings and emotion. When my clients see their images many cry, in a good way ;-) . We limit our weddings to 25 per year so that we don't lose the creative edge!
What inspires you in your work? Beauty. I see it everywhere, and I want to capture it in a way that allows others to appreciate it.
What do you find the most rewarding about your job? I get to experience beautiful, and intensely personal, emotional transactions as part of my job. Most people get to experience these moments a few times in their life. I am fortunate enough to have these experiences on a regular basis!
What's the one thing you wish everyone knew about you or your business? I wish everyone knew how much I care about doing a great job. I get really connected with my clients and really work hard to thrill them. It's a demanding occupation both physically and mentally. I don't think many people realize that a photographer's job isn't even halfway done when the wedding day ends.Even after the wedding I still have another 30 hours of work to do before they see their images.
What do you think sets your company apart from other photographers? It's a combination of things. Passion for my job is the driver, but I never stop learning. I attend lots of classes every year to learn new techniques or to reinforce old ones. I actually even teach other photographers now and that also expands my own knowledge. I understand light and can make you look beautiful on a sunny day or in a hurricane! I have had a lot of brides tell me that when I arrived on their wedding day, they felt relieved. They see me as a friend and know I am going to take care of them!
What do you love about weddings? The joy and happiness that surrounds everything during the day. I am selective about my clients and love to work with couples who love my work and have a good outlook on their wedding day. I don't work with clients who don't fit that criteria. My business card says "Photography for Fun Couples" and by sticking with that ideal, my clients are always awesome!
What do you hate about weddings? Hmm…I don't hate much but I do have a pet peeve that's been growing lately. I am getting really annoyed with guests who feel it's necessary to hold their phones and iPads in the aisle during the processional and recessional. It's totally out of control now. I just don't get it. It's rude and ruins so many of what could be magazine quality images for my clients. I am becoming a big fan of the "Unplugged Wedding."
What is the coolest thing you've ever seen at a wedding? So many things from amazing arrivals on awesome yachts, exotic cars, and some I can't tell you about due to non-disclosure agreements. The one that sticks out in my mind though was a couple who had a very tight budget. They couldn't even afford gifts for each other, but the bride taught herself how to play guitar, sing, and write music. She wrote a beautiful song for the groom and played it as a surprise during the reception. That was priceless!
What's the best piece of advice you can give to couples planning a wedding? Select vendors who are passionate about their job and you'll never go wrong! Then relax and enjoy your day! If you cut corners, they will often cut you back!
Who is your favorite artist or band? That's a tough one! I am passionate about music and used to DJ in college. Right now I like Imagine Dragons, Slightly Stoopid, Sublime, Mumford and Sons, The Clash, etc… but it changes all the time and according to what I am doing. As far as local wedding bands, Doug Segree.
What is the worst song of all time? Cupid Shuffle.

*"Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo" is a valid sentence in the English language. It's true. Check it out on this Wikipedia article.
(Are you a fan of EURweb? Like us on Facebook or Follow us on Twitter.)
Incidentally, that sentence could have also summarized the speech of SportsCenter anchors this past week after one of the biggest free-agent signings in NFL history, as Mario Williams, left the sunny skies of Houston for the lake-effect snow of Buffalo.
Talk about a climate change! We can't help but feel happy for the Bills and their fans, who must have been feeling like they were marooned in the NFL's Siberia for almost two decades now – and that was after they lost four straight Superbowls. Now the Bills can toss out a bruising defensive line and at least a competent offense. Maybe there's some hope in upstate New York after all.
The timing of the NFL's free agent frenzy provided an interesting contrast compared to the other big player-personnel sports story of the week, the NBA trading deadline. If the Mario Williams story was the biggest story this week, the seemingly endless Dwight Howard "will-he-or-won't-he" trade carousel was #2 with a 6-foot-11, 265-lb., shot-blocking bullet. In the end, all he did was decide to stay another year with the Magic – just leading to another year of this same old stuff. You have to feel sorry for the Magic fans, for another year of death by a thousand cuts, in the form of endless newspaper articles and sound bites. All this a decade after Shaq left. Hell, there's not even a sentence involving repetitions of the world "Orlando."
The contrast comes down to team versus individual, really. Unlike in the NFL, in the NBA, one superstar player can hold an entire franchise hostage for years; just witness the collective Dog Day Afternoon that was LeBron James with Cleveland and Chris Bosh with Toronto. We don't see that in the NFL, for the simple reason that team comes before all in this league; in football, one superstar can kick-start a good team into another class, but they can't drag a franchise up another rung all by their lonesome. If we look at the biggest NFL free agent signings of all time – Reggie White, Drew Brees, Deion Sanders – they all fit in as the final piece of the puzzle for an already-good team. As far as the teams they leave behind? Well, the players get replaced, and life goes on. That's the way it is. Houston will survive without Mario Williams. After all, he was 1 of 53 – a great 1, but 1, nonetheless. Meanwhile, when a superstar leaves an NBA team … it's cataclysmic. You can ask the fans in Toronto and Cleveland about that; it will take those years to recover from their high-profile defections. One superstar invariably decides the fate of an entire city's team.
NFL vs. NBA, team vs. individual, two sports that battle for the country's consciousness every winter. What side do you come down on?

Hammer Hoof stood at attention. His back was straight as he could make it, his head up with ears erect, his eyes forward. Not a sound escaped his lips. His body was so still he was certain that his old academy sergeant would have been able to build one of those ridiculous block structures he'd enjoyed creating right across his back without a single piece falling out of place.
Behind him stood one of the most secure doors in the entire kingdom, at least at the moment. It didn't look like much, but he knew from experience that a pony couldn't always take things at face value in Equestria. Like the statue of Discord that had turned out to actually be the infamous draconequus. Or worse, the creature that had been impersonating Captain Armor's now-wife at the wedding just two weeks earlier. He suppressed a shudder at the memory, his body still locked. That day had been a dark one for the Guard, even if things had turned out all right in the end.
It had also been a bit of an embarrassment, at least in hindsight. Despite being on high alert in preparation for the nameless threat, the changeling army's invasion had caught them all by surprise. The Royal Guard had been hamstrung in the frantic opening minutes of the invasion by a series of crippling precision strikes. Amid the chaos at the time Hammer had assumed—like many—that the swarm had been attacking at random, simply seeking out large concentrations of ponies and subduing them. It wasn't until later that he'd learned the attacks hadn't been random at all, but carefully executed strikes specifically targeting lead or elite members of the Guard.
Like his old partner. Hammer's eyes slid over to the pony currently standing at his side and then snapped back forward. It was still a bit odd to be serving with Cloudburst. The white pegasus was a lot quieter than Show Stopper had been. Although it was commonplace—and expected—that Guard serve and work with a variety of partners, he and Show Stopper had been working together for so long that it seemed strange to work next to anyone else.
Much like getting used to the Night Guard, Hammer thought as his eyes slid to the other side of the doorway. Two large, bat-winged pegasi stood there, still as statues. He still was in the dark along with most of the Guard about whether or not the strange new additions to the Night Guard were simply complex enchantments or a permanent change altogether. Star Shot probably knew, as she was the Captain of the Night Guard. But nopony had been able to get a straight answer from her regarding Princess Luna's personal sentinels yet. Maybe they never would.
There was movement from down the hall, and he snapped his eyes to it, his body tensing as a servant approached and not relaxing again until she had passed them by. He almost hated how suspicious he was of the castle's staff while on duty; but since the events of the wedding, seeing ponies that he'd thought were comrades revealing themselves as black-carapaced impostors right in front of him ... This time his shoulders did quiver slightly. It was hard not to be suspicious of anypony after an event like that. He still had nightmares some nights.
His eyes slid towards one of the nearby hourglasses Luna had installed when she'd taken over this wing of the castle, searching for a distraction from his thoughts. Unless he'd missed one of the servants coming by and flipping it, it would be time for moon-rise soon, which meant that his shift was nearly over. He turned his eyes back towards the front, a worrying tingle of pain flaring in his stomach. Maybe Green Glade was right: this job, especially with what had happened in the last few weeks, was finally starting to get to him. Maybe he could use some of that vacation time he had stored up. Go on a trip with her and the kids. Maybe talk out his stress with a therapist.
Then again, he did love his job, recent narcosis aside. It wasn't anypony in Equestria who had the honor of protecting Princess Celestia herself. The tingle in his stomach began to fade as his mind began to wander. What was going on behind those doors, inside Princess Luna's study? Whatever it was, it had to be important. He'd felt the telltale tingle in his horn from multiple spells being cast as the Princess had entered the room; several sealed scrolls at her side. Not a sound had escaped since the door had been shut, a surefire sign that one of the spells had been a privacy ward.
He shifted his hooves, blood rushing back into his legs with faint pins and needles. Whatever it was that the Princesses deemed so important, he was there to protect it. And come Tartarus breaking free across Equestria, it was his duty to do so. No matter what, that fact would always make him proud.
Although ... sometimes he couldn't help but wonder exactly what it was the Princesses were discussing behind such heavily warded doors.
* * *
"So then," Celestia said, her grin barely contained, "she comes rushing to me to show me that she's done it."
"And you were in—"
"Holding the Day Court, yes," Celestia said, smiling. "So Twilight rushes in, joyfully yelling that she'd 'done it' over and over and over again and completely derailing the little speech about his own birthday that Blueblood was giving." The grin broke free as her sister let out a small snort.
"Oh, Tia, he must have been most furious!" Luna said, holding a hoof to her mouth.
"Wait, dear sister," Celestia said, leaning forward. "It gets better. Twilight, being Twilight, didn't even notice that she'd cut him off, nor that he was calling for her to remove her 'un-noble flank' from the court." Luna's face contorted in a brief exaggerated scowl, and Celestia laughed. "No, sister, he has not changed much over the years. Despite my many attempts."
"The vain braggart," Luna said, shaking her head in disgust. "I trust that this story includes some sort of comeuppance for our self-centered nephew?"
"Well," Celestia said, ignoring her sister's question for the moment, "Twilight decides it's not just enough to let me know that she'd finally succeeded at teleporting an inanimate object. She needs to show me..." She couldn't conceal her own reaction as her sister's eyes grew wide.
"She didn't..." Luna breathed, jaw slightly agape. "Did she?"
Celestia nodded. "She decided to try and teleport the first thing that she saw. Which was—of course—the horribly tacky blue-and-pink monstrosity of a cake that Blueblood had brought in honor of his birthday. And prodigy or not, the predictable happened."
"It exploded?" Luna asked in hope, the corners of her mouth turning upward.
"Ker-splat!" Celestia said, throwing her front hooves up. "All over Blueblood and his entire noble entourage!" Her voice shook as she fought to speak through her giggles. "And the rest of the court! Even I had some pink icing on me."
"What—what did you do?" Luna asked between titters.
"Well," Celestia said,"it was quiet enough that you could almost hear Blueblood's self-control breaking. Here it is, his fifteenth birthday and he's absolutely plastered in pink-and-blue icing—" Luna began giggling again, "—along with most of his friends. So, very carefully, I get Twilight's attention, because she's still staring at the remains of the cake with her jaw open—partially I think because she was almost as covered in it as Blueblood was." Luna was rolling on her back now, her front legs kicking at the air, her wings knocking over the unopened rolls of parchment they'd brought in with them.
"So I get Twilight's attention," Celestia said, trying to keep her sister's fun from breaking her flow, "and she starts to follow me out of the court with this wide-eyed look of panic on her face." Celestia stopped, letting out her own snicker before continuing. "I had almost made it out of the hall when one of the nobles broke."
Luna stopped laughing, looking up at her with the expression of a foal who'd just been told she could eat all her Nightmare Night candy. "You didn't?" Her eyes grew even wider as Celestia nodded, squeezing her eyes shut as her grin grew out of control. "You did?" It was apparently too much to take for Luna, as she threw herself back on her study floor, howling with laughter and beating one hoof against the thick blue carpet. "You did!"
"I couldn't help it!" Celestia said, her cheeks red. "One giggle from the nobles and it all came out! I broke down laughing right then and there! The perfect picture of a Princess: laughing so hard at Blueblood's cake encrusted mane I couldn't stand! And—and then—As soon as I lost it the entire hall started laughing, and ... Poor Twilight, she didn't know whether she should be laughing or crying so she's—she's—" Celestia did her best impression of her student's panicked expression, Luna laughing harder as her sister flailed her limbs around, her eyes wide in mock terror.
"And of course—of course Blueblood saw the entire thing as a joke at his expense," Celestia said. "The look of horror on his face as all the nobles broke down laughing—he just couldn't take it!" For a moment she felt a pang of sadness for her stubborn "nephew," souring her mirth somewhat. "Even wearing his own birthday cake like one of those gaudy suits, he couldn't see the humor in the situation," she said, her voice tone mellowing slightly.
"We cannot change everyone, Tia," Luna said, sitting up, her mirth abated somewhat. "Maybe our wayward relation simply needs more time. Until then however," she said with a mischievous grin, "I at the very least shall enjoy the mental image of our uptight and obstinate young relation covered head-to-hoof in pink-and-blue frosting." The midnight blue alicorn began laughing once more, Celestia joining in at the thought of Prince Blueblood's crushed expression.
The two sisters continued for a few minutes, occasionally slowing, looking at one another, and bursting into laughter. Finally, after what had been so long that Celestia could feel her sides aching, the two began to quiet down. At some point they had both fallen to the floor, and Celestia rolled herself onto her side, looking over at her sister.
"Anyway," she said, a smirk on her face. "That is why Prince Blueblood is afraid of cake—" Luna snorted once more, "—and why that story about the Galloping Gala keeps going around." Luna nodded in understanding, a knowing look on her face.
Celestia smiled as she took another look around her sister's study, a warm feeling sinking into her heart. After a thousand years, to have her sister back—there was nothing greater. It was a lesson she'd tried to teach all her little ponies, the importance of friend and family. Something that she wanted each and every last one of them to learn. Some took more encouragement than others. And some, she reflected sadly, never did.
"Tia?" Luna asked, her voice shaking Celestia from her reverie. "What is it?"
"Oh, nothing much, Luna," Celestia said, still running her eyes across her sister's study, taking in the art on the walls and the open balcony at one end. The stars were just peeking out of the darkening western sky, the sun having made its leisurely descent past the horizon under her guidance just a short time ago. "I'm just so glad to have you back."
Luna smiled back at her, pushing herself across the carpet and moving to nuzzle her. There was a sharp snap as a small spark of static electricity shot between them and they both pulled back, Luna letting out a little yelp of surprise. Celestia looked at her for a moment, and they both burst out laughing anew.
"And here I thought I was supposed to be the trickster of the two of us," Celestia said, winking.
"Perhaps most would think so," Luna said with a smirk. "But only because like the sun, your tricks are flashy and apparent for all. Mine are like unto the night, silent and swift!" She tossed her head back with an exaggerated grin, throwing her starry mane into a flurry of motion.
"Oh, Luna," Celestia said, inching forward and embracing her younger sister in a hug, her forelegs and wings wrapping around her. "I'm so glad we can have these moments together. To just be sisters and not to have to worry as much, for a brief moment, about the ponies under our care."
Luna nodded, pushing into her embrace. "I'm—" she said, her voice faltering. "I'm glad I'm able to—"
"Shhh," Celestia said, holding her sister tighter. "What's done is done, no need to remember old regrets." They stayed pressed together for a few moments longer, their bodies rocking back and forth as they held one another. Finally, after a few minutes of silence, the two pulled apart.
"Thank you, Tia," Luna said, blinking a few tears from her eyes. "And for the—" she let out a faint laugh, a smile coming back to her face as well. "And for the story as well." She shook her head. "I shall have to send Blueblood a blue-and-pink cake the next time his birthday arises."
Celestia smirked, wondering if she should comment on her sister's plan or ignore it. "Thank you, Luna. It's nice to relax with you after a long and trying day."
Luna looked over at her. "So I hear. Another dispute among the nobles?"
Celestia ruffled her wings in distaste. "If only it was just that. Not only are Raspberry and Upper Crust at it again, each trying to outdo the other and dragging the Day Court down, but the new trade negotiations with the Griffins have reached a standstill for the time being. The Griffins want a higher tariff on the goods, and Canterlot Cloudrunners insist that it cannot be done without cutting expenses in other areas. And then there's that group from the ERS board, still wasting everypony's time arguing against the rail line to the north..." She let out an exhausted sigh. "And we both know that we cannot let that be delayed. It could be too late as it is."
"You could refer some of them to the Night Court," Luna suggested, giving her a thoughtful look. "I can shoulder some of your more bothersome burdens, as I should. Besides, I need to talk to the ERS board members about some strange theft reports."
"I have suggested so, Luna," Celestia said, smiling at her younger sister. "In fact, I'm considering making it a formal order, at least for those ponies from the ERS. The nobles I may just invite to settle things out of court." She gave her head an exhausted shake, her multihued mane rolling around her.
She looked up at her sister, putting a soft smile on her face. "So thank you, Luna, for even this small amount of time together to not always be a Princess." Then she frowned. "And what thefts?"
Luna shook her head. "Nothing important that you need to worry about, but ... Sister," she said, her voice brightening, "you could just take another day off. Go spend some time in Ponyville with your student, or better yet, relaxing somewhere. I can keep a close eye on things here."
"I wish I could, Luna," Celestia said, tilting her head to one side and giving it a small shake. "And I will, but not now. Right now there's still too much to do in the wake of the changelings." Luna nodded in understanding. Canterlot was still returning to normal, and they both knew it. It would be some time more before the city could erase the scars of the invasion.
"Even my own Guard have been jumpier than usual," Celestia said, tipping her eyes towards the door. "Hammer in particular might need therapy."
"Mine have ... had some upsets," Luna said, nodding. "Many of them are still ashamed that a simple soundproofing ward allowed so many of them to be caught asleep and unawares." She paused for a moment, her eyes looking straight at Celestia's, and she could see the coming question in her eyes. "Tia," Luna began, "About that idea I had—"
Celestia smiled. "I looked over your proposal this morning, Luna, and I find it sound."
Luna smiled. "You mean—"
"I think you should go forward with it," Celestia said, rising to her hooves. It would be time for her sister to raise the moon soon. The last vestiges of dusk were giving away to night through the balcony doors, the sun now well past the horizon. "I've considered such a course of action before but never for more than a passing moment." She gave her sister a warm smile. "You always were the one to see what I couldn't."
"And the member choices? What do you think?"
"Better and more thorough than anypony else, including myself, would have managed." Celestia leaned forward, lowering her voice as if exchanging foalhood secrets. "And how did you ever manage to learn so much about Steel Song?"
Luna smiled. "One of my Night Guard is distantly related to him through his sister's marriage and speaks of him often, always highly. That, and I may have done a little sleuthing on my own," she said with a mischievous grin.
"You—?" Celestia said, her eyes widening at her sisters expression. "You did! Is that why you were so tired last week?" Luna nodded, and Celestia narrowed her eyes, giving her sister a suspicious look. "Unicorn or pegasus?"
Luna snorted. "A pegasus of course, dear Tia. I could never give up my wings!" Celestia laughed as her sister snapped her deep blue wings out, looking at them with an enraptured gaze.
"Just as I could never go without my horn, dear Woona." Celestia said, giggling as her sister rolled her eyes at the use of her old nickname. "Did you speak to him directly?" Celestia asked, jumping back on topic.
"Only a few times," Luna said, shaking her head. "And not for long. Mostly I just spoke to his neighbors. They had nothing but respect for him and his deeds."
Celestia smiled as she remembered the eager young Guard cadet from so many years ago. "And what of him?"
"He's—" Luna paused for a moment, as if searching for the words, and then looked up at her. "He's exactly who we need. And he needs it as well. Far more than he realizes, I think."
"Very well then, Luna," Celestia said. A knock rang through the room as one of the Guard reminded them of the soon-to-be-due moon-rise. "You've put a great deal of thought into this, and I agree with you. I approve of your idea, and give my own accordance to move forward." It was an old law that required both of them to agree on something before certain actions could be taken, but it was one she had enjoyed applying to every ruling she had made since her sister had returned.
"Thank you, Tia," Luna said, her muzzle pressing against Celestia's in a warm nuzzle.
"No, Luna, thank you," Celestia said, fighting back a yawn. "And may I say I'm most interested to see this all come together." She smiled at her sister as they headed for door. "It's been decades since I last saw Steel Song. It will be most interesting to see how he—" She paused for a moment, Luna at her side, one hoof on the study door. "What are you going to call this new division anyway?"
Luna shrugged. "I don't really know, Tia," she admitted as she opened the door, her Guard snapping to attention. "They'll think of something, I'm sure."
"If I might suggest," Celestia said, pointing one hoof towards the twilight sky outside her sister's balcony. "What about the Dusk Guard?"
Luna stood for a minute, a thoughtful look on her face. "The Dusk Guard," she said, smiling. "I like it. An excellent choice, dear sister. Dusk." She turned back to the hall, walking away with a serene and yet powerful presence, her two Guard trailing behind her. "Good night, Tia!" she called.
"Good night, sister," Celestia said, taking one last look out the balcony. "And good luck." She could still hear her sister's hoofsteps, along with the unspoken word running through her sister's mind.

Our Top 25 teams in college football
The top three remain the same, but several big upsets have shaken up the rest of the top 25, with a new addition to round out the group.
1. Ohio State (Previous ranking: 1)
They continue to cling on to that number one spot, but the chasing pack aren't far behind at all. Most concerning is the fact that Cardale Jones (-14.7) continues to struggle and J.T. Barrett (-5.7) doesn't offer much hope as a replacement. Thankfully, the combination of the offensive line and running backs Ezekiel Elliot (+13.0) and Curtis Samuel (+4.2) have kept the offense going.
2. Michigan State (2)
As good as they looked early in the year, particularly against Oregon, the past two weeks have been a bit of a disappointment. Quarterback Connor Cook (+3.0) has only had two good games from five this year. More worrying is the uncertain nature of star left tackle Jack Conklin's (+12.1) injury. Arguably the best offensive lineman in the country, they need him back as soon as possible.
3. Baylor (3)
Baylor almost seems like the forgotten team in the top five, but they continue to look really good. Quarterback Seth Russell (+9.8) is playing well, while the defensive line boasts four players with a grade of +8.5 or better.
TCU rounds out our top four after a big win over Texas. Quarterback Trevone Boykin (+13.4) is playing better than a year ago, even if we don't think he's quite up to the Heisman hype. What's interesting about the top four is that we get to see Ohio State and Michigan State, and Baylor and TCU play each other late in the year, which will have big implications on who goes to the College Football Playoff.
5. Florida State (5)
A strong defense where cornerback Jalen Ramsey (+8.0) and safety Derwin James (+8.1) have starred on the back end, and an offense where both quarterback Everett Golson (+8.0) and running back Dalvin Cook (+5.1) keep the chains moving. That game with Clemson on November 7th looms large.
Four games into their season and LSU running back Leonard Fournette (+14.2) has rushed for 864 yards. The defense looks pretty good too, with defensive tackle Davon Godchaux (+8.9) and defensive end Arden Kelly (+6.2) impressing as pass rushers. Alabama and currently unbeaten Florida are on the schedule over the next four games, but the Tigers have shown they have the rushing attack to be a big player in the College Football Playoff picture.
7. Alabama (7)
Underdog on the road, facing their second loss which would have made making the College Football Playoff a very unlikely outcome, the Crimson Tide flat out dominated the Georgia Bulldogs. Quarterback Jake Coker (-3.2) has had two bad games this year, but is starting to find his rhythm and making enough plays to help them win.
8. Clemson (13)
They held on to beat Notre Dame on Saturday night. If they want to win the ACC though, they'll have to get past Florida State, and they'll need more out of quarterback Deshaun Watson (+0.7). Defensively there is a lot to like though, notably defensive end Shaq Lawson (+12.9)
9. Oklahoma (14)
They've scored at least 31 points in every game so far this year, and quarterback Baker Mayfield (+7.3) continues to grow into his role as starting quarterback. Baylor and TCU loom large on the schedule in back to back weeks in December so few are giving them much hope of going undefeated at this stage, but they have managed to handle everything thrown at them so far.
10. Texas A&M (15)
Undefeated through five weeks but still not getting much respect. That's got a lot to do with who they have beaten, and they can prove everyone wrong with a big win over Alabama on October 17th. Wide receiver Christian Kirk (+6.1) has been the star of the show on offense.
11. Utah (16)
Slowly but surely everyone in the Pac-12 South has at least one loss. Minus Utah. The surprise package in what everyone knew would be one of the most competitive divisions in all of college football, they get the chance to cement their status as the best team in the Pac-12 when they take on Cal this Saturday.
12. Florida (20)
A team that's proving just how much we underrated them, the Gators continue to win. We expected their defense to keep it close against Ole Miss, but we didn't expect them to blow them out. Defensive end Jonathan Bullard (+17.7) is having a ridiculously good season against the run as the defense continues to lead the way.
13. Northwestern (21)
One of the surprise teams of the year, the Wildcats have recorded two shutouts and are yet to allow an offense to put up more than 19 points against them so far this year. That bodes well for a low-scoring defensive game against Michigan this weekend, with the Wolverines shutting out their past two opponents.
14. California (23)
Behind Jared Goff's (+24.3) arm, the Golden Bears are a serious threat to win the Pac-12 this year. Goff looks comfortable throwing the ball downfield, and so far is creating enough big plays to help them stay undefeated. This week's game against Utah is a huge test.
15. Ole Miss (4)
That's one way to burst your bubble. As good as their win over Alabama was, that loss against Florida has really hurt them. Few can realistically see them above Alabama now, and with Florida and LSU both impressing they now feel a distance back in an SEC where they looked so strong a week ago. After a strong start to the year, quarterback Chad Kelly (+3.2) has now had three straight negatively graded performances.
With no game this past week, they see themselves drop as more undefeated teams begin to prove themselves. One loss doesn't knock them out of it in the Pac-12, especially when they have a game against Utah on the 24th of October, but they may live to really regret that Cal loss late in the year.
17. Notre Dame (8)
So close to staying undefeated against Clemson, their College Football Playoff hopes took a big dent on Saturday night. They have a strong enough schedule to still be in the mix if they beat USC and Stanford later in the year, but they are now relying on other teams slipping up too.
18. Georgia (9)
As solid a season as Greyson Lambert (-2.4) was having in his first year as the Bulldogs starting quarterback, he was thoroughly exposed (-5.5) against Alabama. The defense, lead by outside linebacker Jordan Jenkins (+19.8) still looks good, but that loss, and the one sided nature of it, hurts big time.
Despite a monster game to go along with a monster season for defensive tackle Kenny Clark (+29.9), the Bruins fell to the Arizona State Sun Devils. Like with USC, one loss doesn't kill their season in the Pac-12, but quarterback Josh Rosen (-0.1) will need to play better going forward.
20. Iowa (UR)
Quarterback C.J. Beathard (-0.1) had his worst game of the year against Wisconsin (-7.6) and the Hawkeyes still came away with the win. Defensively defensive end Nate Meier (+9.2) has impressed through five weeks.
21. Memphis (25)
Still winning and still behind the impressive arm of quarterback Paxton Lynch (+15.8). They've got two weeks to prepare for Ole Miss, and if they can pull off the upset there, they have a serious chance to go undefeated.
22. Temple (22)
Another surprise team with the chance to go undefeated, with Notre Dame the toughest team left on their schedule. Big wins over Cincinnati and Penn State early in the season got them the attention they deserve. On defense, defensive end Haason Reddick (+11.1) is really starting to find his form, with two big games in each of the past two weeks.
23. Stanford (24)
That loss against Northwestern was viewed as terrible at the time but it turns out that Northwestern is a pretty good football team. In the past three weeks they've scored 41, 42 and 55 points, with quarterback Kevin Hogan (+5.3) playing better than he did a year ago.
24. Michigan (UR)
Like Stanford, Michigan's early season loss to Utah was originally viewed as a terrible loss, but we've since discovered that Utah are a very good team. Two shut outs in a row for the Wolverines, with defensive end Maurice Hurst (+18.4) and cornerback Jourdan Lewis (+11.1) just two of the many standouts on that side of the ball.
25. Toledo (UR)
A new entry in our top 25, the Rockets have got this far on the strength of their defense. Defensive tackles Treyvon Hester (+11.2) and Orion Jones (+10.2) have been the standouts but the unit as a whole has looked really good. They offense hasn't looked as impressive but with wins over Arkansas and Iowa State behind them, they have a shot at an undefeated season.

Review for Best Robotics Inc, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
Last fall we ran our first local competition. Once word got out about what we were doing, we were overwhelmed with schools who wanted to participate. We had to limit the number the first year. This year we will easily double in size and still have to limit the number of teams we can take. BEST is fantastic!

"Such lovely people who knew their jobs inside out"
About: Rotherham Hospital / Accident and emergency Rotherham Hospital Accident and emergency Rotherham S60 2UD Rotherham Hospital / Gynaecology Rotherham Hospital Gynaecology Rotherham S60 2UD
Posted by Maria2004 (as ),
Around a month ago, I had a miscarriage at 7 weeks.
My experience was mixed. I dealt with an emergency doctor on the phone firstly at 3am, my midwife the next morning, my own GP who tried to arrange an emergency scan, but couldn't get one booked until the next day before turning up to a&e in desperation.
I felt the emergency doctor on the phone and initially a&e treated me as a first time pregnant lady over reacting, but I knew there was something wrong. I felt like the emergency doctor fobbed me off and a&e left me waiting having a miscarriage in the waiting room for 2. 5 hours.
I struggled to get someone to listen to me until I finally saw a doctor in a&e. Someone finally took my concerns seriously!
The a&e doctor and nurse were caring, kind, listened to me and actually did I something to help me. I was taken to ward B11 and the doctors and nurses were so nice, explained everything, did lots of tests and listened to me. They took my concerns seriously.
They couldn't do a scan until the following day, which confirmed the miscarriage. The nurses who undertook the scan and explained everything were also amazing.
Whilst it took 1. 5 days from my first contact with the emergency doctor before I had any answers, and even though it was a horrible thing to go through, the doctor and nurse in a&e, ward b11 and early pregnancy assessment unit were great. Such lovely people who were knew their jobs inside out.
