Microorganism Glossary!
- Brief Summary
Microorganism Glossary give introductions on some kinds of Microorganisms.A microorganism or microbe is a microscopic organism,which may be a single cell or multicellular organism.Microorganisms are very diverse; they include all of the prokaryotes,namely the bacteria and archaea; and various forms of eukaryotes, comprising the protozoa,fungi,algae,microscopic plants (green algae), and animals such as rotifers and planarians.Some microbiologists also classify viruses as microorganisms, but others consider these as nonliving.
- Bacterial Cell:
Bacteria constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria have a wide range of shapes, ranging from spheres to rods and spirals. Bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most habitats on the planet. Bacteria inhabit soil, water, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste,and the deep portions of Earth's crust. Bacteria also live in plants, animals,and have survived in space.Generalized Bacterial Cell Structure introduced.more.
- Staphylococcus:
Staphylococcus (from the Greek: σταφυλή, staphylē, "grape" and κόκκος, kókkos, "granule") is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria.Staphylococcus aureus (or Staph aureus) is a type of bacteria commonly found on the skin and hair as well as in the noses and throats of people and animals.These bacteria are present in up to 25 percent of healthy people and are even more common among those with skin,eye,nose,or throat infections.more.
- Escherichia coli:
Escherichia coli is a Gram-negative, facultative anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium that is commonly found in the lower intestine of warm-blooded organisms.Most E. coli strains pose no harm to human health, except for serotype O157:H7, which can cause food poisoning in humans and can become life-threatening.more.
- Salmonella:
Salmonella is a genus of rod-shaped, Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, predominantly motile enterobacteria.Salmonella germs can live in the intestinal tract of many different animals.Salmonellosis is a bacterial disease caused by the bacterium Salmonella.Salmonella is closely related to the Escherichia genus and are found worldwide in cold- and warm-blooded animals (including humans), and in the environment.They cause illnesses such as typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, and foodborne illness.more.
- Bacteria and Diseases:
Bacterias are very tiny orgnaisms which are existed almost every where. Bacterias are prokaryotes, they have only one cell, without nucleus. Their genome is only several hundred Kilo base pairs (Kb) to several Mega base pairs (Mb), compared to 3000 Mbs of human genome. Bacteria can be better observed under a microscope as they are typically several µm in diameter. Sometimes bacterias grow into a larger colony and it can then be seen by eye.more.

Starting and finishing at Larmer Tree Gardens, and taking place in one of Britains most beautiful landscapes, the Larmer Tree Races will take place over the weekend of 11th & 12th March 2017. There will be four tremendous races from the people who brought you the Giants Head Marathon and the Ox races. White Star Running are delighted to have been invited by the Rushmore Estate to create a race in around the estates grounds. There will be hills and it could well be wet and muddy and cold and rainy or sunny who knows.
Because of the rising costs of tshirts and printing we have looked at food as a better option and Forking Out the Estate caterers sure know how to cook. You can still buy a race tshirt in advance and pick it up on the day. Also there will be race hoodies to buy as well.
On Sunday 12th March there will be a 20 mile race and marathon. To enter, please click here.
Larmer Tree Gardens is home to a muster of peacocks and a pair of free flying Macaws which adds to the magical atmosphere.

The founders of Harley Davidson Motor Cycle Company, William A. Davidson, Walter Davidson, Sr., Arthur Davidson and William S. Harley
Now, let me note, I like Harley Davidson motorcycles. I don't own one. And I don't really know all that much about the company's history or those who founded the company. So, this review is an odd one in that I'm reviewing a topic I really don't know very much about. That's important as I understand that this television drama takes liberties with its story, but I'll miss a lot of them (other than to be suspecting that I'm seeing them). However, the concluding snippets at the end would suggest that some things I thought were liberties were not, so again, for a review of its accuracy, a person probably can't rely on this.
Harley Davidson motorcycle on flat track, 1919.
This drama follows the company and its founders from the creation of their very first motorcycle until the introduction of its 1934 model which more or less introduced the motorcycle we recognize today. In other words from 1903 to 1934. FWIW, I know enough about the company to know that the film was accurate in these regards. The first Harley was built in the shed behind one of the founder's parents home, and in 34 Harley did introduce what was then a radical new motorcycle in spite of the ongoing Great Depression.
Beyond that, I think that the drama takes a huge number of liberties. Harley was their engineer, but the story doesn't make it clear that he graduated as an engineer from the University of Wisconsin before the company truly took off. Harley is shown getting married, which he did, but the fact that he and his wife had several children is oddly omitted. His wife, Anna Jachthuber (nee) is shown being critically ill for a time, and I don't know if that's correct or not. Arthur Davidson is correctly depicted as the company's marketing genius. That he had several children is also omitted. Arthur Davidson and William Harley were really the two main designers of the motorcycles, so what role Walter Davidson senior or junior had I don't know, other than that they had some.
Indian Motorcycles and its business leadership is depicted as evil in the film, which doesn't reflect reality. It was just a slightly older (two years) competitor with Harley for a long time. Apparently the makes of the film thought they needed some sort of long lasting rivalry as a plot device.
So, while there are accurate details (the relationship with a Japanese company, albeit brief, did occur) there are a lot of departures from the truth as well.
Well, on to material details.
I understand that the makes of this film studied the early motorcycles at Harley's museum and I believe they are accurately depicted. It is neat to see these (scary) early bikes depicted in such large numbers. Various details like that are well depicted. Clothing is predicted accurately, although the wearing of it isn't always. Walter Davidson, for example, is shown often wearing an open collar banded collar shirt with no starched collar attached and no tie. That just wouldn't have happened in that era. An early female motorcycle club racer is inserted in the plot for the 1930s, which is unlikely. The frequent insertion of horses, however, is accurate and nicely done.
All in all, it's entertaining, but probably not very accurate history.

Unanswered: MySQL, C# and UTF8 issues
I have a database on my website that's 100% UTF8.
My PHP pages can read, display and set Chinese values well.
I have a MySQL connection on my XP64: Encoding 65001 UTF8
And there's database that's utf8 & utf8_general_ci
In that, there's a table: field sSPzht: utf8 & utf8_general_ci
When my C# app gets Chinese text from the web, and updates the field sSPzht: I see "????".
This is an encoding issue. But where?
More information:
MySQL connection strings:
Web: Server=74.220.xxx.xxx;Port=3306;Database=xxx;Uid=x xx;Pwd=xxxx;CharSet=UTF8;"
XP64: Server=localhost;Port=3306;Database=smoreports;Uid =root;Pwd=xxxx;CharSet=UTF8;"
Using Navicat: I can type Chinese into the sSPzht field successfully.
Using the the C# code...
string idSP = "2";
string dat = SMOMain.GetHMData(tbl, "sSPzht", "idSP=" + idSP, true);
sql = "UPDATE " + tbl + " SET sSPzht='" + dat + "' WHERE idSP=" + idSP + ";";
// Set data
lbl1.Text = dat;
txt1.Text = dat;
..Will put the Chinese into a TextBox and label that is displayed perfectly.
Using Navicat: I can copy the Chinese from the TextBox on a C# form and paste it into my sSPzht field succesfully.
Here's my issue:
sql = "UPDATE " + tbl + " SET sSPzht='" + dat + "' WHERE idSP=" + idSP + ";";
MySqlCommand myCommand = new MySqlCommand(sql, myConnection);
The above code only puts ???? into the sSPzht field.
What am I missing?

John McCain criticizes Supreme Court decision to grant corporations rights to free speech
While prominent Democrats and their defenders regularly lambaste the Supreme Court decision that corporations are people in the Citizens United case, it is rather surprising to find a prominent Republican also taking a very jaundiced view of the decision.
However the former Republican presidential nominee John McCain claims to be very worried by the decision. McCain noted that billionaire Sheldon Adelson may contribute up to 100 million to support the campaign of Mitt Romney through a Super Pac. While it is unusual for Republicans to worry about donations to their own party, McCain is also worried that the decision will allow unions to finance the Democrats. However the unions do not have the deep pocket of large U.S. corporations.
McCain said:"I'm not only worried about him, I'm worried about may others,""I've always been concerned about the labor unions who take money from their union members and without their permission, contribute to causes that they may not support. So am I concerned about the incredible amount of money that's washing around? Yeah."
McCain continued in criticism of the Supreme Court decision:: "I think there will scandals as associated with the worst decision of the United States Supreme Court in the 21st century," Since Adelson earns some of his billions from a foreign casino McCain even suggested that his donations involved foreign money entering the campaign.
McCain's musings may not sit well with Romney and his supporters. Romney himself has said that corporations are people. McCain's gloss on his statement is that Romney was saying simply that they are made up of people. For more see this article.

These tri-sided snowflakes are very easy patterns which can be applied to any number of art projects. I initially designed them with absolute beginners, preschool age children and and people with special needs in mind, but the patterns can be used for virtually any hobby whether tapestry, wood working and stenciling. These designs are extremely simple which use basic cutout shapes easily mastered by youngsters to whom you wish to introduce math concepts in an entertaining manner.
The designs on this page were made from extremely easy 3-sided snow flake folding patterns. It is quite fun to discover the how such fairly complex patterns can arise out of just a few simple scissor cuts. Visit the 2, 4 and 6 sided versions of similar folds to experiment.
These simple shapes really help clarify how much difference there can be when simple directional fold are applied to similar shapes.
For instance, take design #3001, which forms a cross or an "X" shape when folded with the 2 sided pattern. The same "L shape", or straight edge, when applied to a 3 sided pattern #2001 transformed into a form that looks like three arrows converging. When applied to the 4 sided pattern #4001, the cross or "x" resembles the quadrant cross (a little bit). Then, lastly, when applied to a #6001 6 sided pattern, the shape resembles the Union Jack which is a combination of several different crosses.
All of the patterns have folding cut out versions as well as stencil versions. Have some fun with the educational process and give the child one of each of the 2,3,4,and 6 sided patterns so they can discover for themselves the differences.

There is suspicion that Old Fadama residents who were evicted in June may have moved into the bushes behind the school.
About 700 meters behind Achimota campus is a community popularly called Achimota School Forest.
It appears it's been there for many years as some of the residents say they have lived here for over 15 years.
With a population of over 500, the residents here are mainly ewes but there are some Akans, Nigerians and even Guineans as well.
There are no social amenities here except a public toilet which is situated close to a refuse dump and people live in wooden structures.
After living here for so many years, Authorities of Achimota School want them evicted. They want them gone as soon as possible.
The question is why now?
According to a source in the school there has been a rise in criminal activities around the school and they believe the people here are behind it. There is also the suspicion that Old Fadama residents who were evicted in June may have moved into the bushes behind the school. No school should have a slum growing behind it.
Happy Cudjoe lives here with her husband. She recently gave birth. She moved here about three months ago after her father went on pension and had to leave his apartment at Achimota College. She is aware of the eviction notice served by the Achimota School. "The land is not for me" she said leaning by her structure "so when the owner comes we will know what to do."
There are about close to 70 structures here with a population of over 500.
Christiana Ankrah also lives with her two children and her parents. She doesn't plan to move after claiming to live here for 8 years she thinks evicting them is an unfair thin to do.
"We beg the Achimota School to give us time. We need time to work so we can rent a place or buy a land. At this time we can't move. We have nowhere to go that is why we are here. "
In the past three months many people have migrated to join the settlers, this has heightened the school authorities' suspicion that the people may have come from Old Fadama.
Pulse News investigations showed that some of the people who moved here about three months ago are from Shiashie and Dzorwulu Ayigbe town.
Sisi for instance moved here from Guinean about four years ago. She sells second hand clothes for her up keep. She said people are willing to pay a token so they can keep settling here
"If they hear that message right now each one will pay four hundred thousand."

The New York legislature and Gov. Andrew Cuomo (R) reached a last-minute compromise on medical marijuana this week, and yesterday, the state Senate and Assembly approved the compromise bill, Program Bill 57. Gov. Cuomo says he will sign the bill into law, making New York the 23rd medical marijuana state.
The bill is more limited than many patients and advocates would have preferred. It forbids smoking medical marijuana, although patients may vaporize or consume it in edibles. It also forbids using the raw plant. And it limits access to those with specified qualifying conditions, including cancer, multiple sclerosis, and epilepsy.
In all, patients with ten specific diseases or conditions will qualify for medical marijuana. The state will be able to add other conditions, and, under the bill, it must determine within 18 months whether to add Alzheimer's, PTSD, muscular dystrophy and dystonia, and rheumatoid arthritis.
The bill also places restrictions on healthcare providers, such as requiring that all recommendations for medical marijuana be made by physicians (excluding nurse practitioners or physician assistants who can prescribe many other medications) and mandating that participating physicians take a training course, an extremely uncommon requirement in US medicine.
Cuomo, who has never been a big fan of medical marijuana, through a spanner in the works late last week, demanding a number of changes be made to win his support. This came after the Assembly had already passed the Compassionate Use Act and the GOP-dominated Senate had signaled it would allow a vote.
The sponsors of the Compassionate Use Act, Assemblymen Dick Gottfried (D-Manhattan) and Senator Diane Savino (D-Staten Island) worked over the weekend and through this week to craft a compromise that addressed the governor's concerns, and now, New York has a medical marijuana bill, albeit more restrictive than originally envisioned.
For patients and advocates it was a bittersweet victory.
"Today, the Senate passed a medical marijuana bill that will help some patients in New York, and that is good news," said Susan Rusinko of Auburn, who has multiple sclerosis. "But this bill they passed is far from perfect. With any medication, the decision about the best mode of administration, including smoking for some patients, should be left up to healthcare providers and their patients, and this bill does not do that. We fought hard to get this far, and we'll keep fighting to make sure that New York's medical marijuana program becomes the best in the country."
"I'm pleased that the New York Senate stood with patients and on the side of compassion when they passed the medical marijuana bill today," said Holly Anderson, executive director of the Breast Cancer Coalition of Rochester. "This was a long, hard fight, and we are elated that cancer patients and others will have one more tool to help alleviate disease symptoms and side effects of treatments. But this bill has flaws, including the exclusion of smoking, which may be the cheapest and most effective way for many patients to use medical cannabis. We call on the Commissioner of Health to quickly implement a program that is accessible to all patients, regardless of their income."
"Today the Senate passed a medical marijuana bill that will help some, but not all, seriously ill New Yorkers who could benefit from medical cannabis," said Kate Hintz of North Salem, whose daughter, Morgan, has Dravet's Syndrome, a serious seizure disorder. "As a parent of child with a seizure disorder, I'm glad that my family will be able to access medicine that can help my daughter. But I must remind these lawmakers that they are not doctors. The decision if and how to treat a condition with medical marijuana should be left up to the patient and the doctor, not our government. We will keep fighting for the regulated, flexible program that all New Yorkers deserve."
"This is a huge step for patients in New York who will benefit from this legislation, and without question, today would not be possible but for the dedicated and sustained organizing work by patients, families, and advocates," said Gabriel Sayegh, New York State director for the Drug Policy Alliance.
"And we are especially appreciative of the leadership shown by Assemblyman Gottfried and Senator Savino," he continued. "This bill is far from perfect. Many of the limitations in this bill – like the restrictions on conditions and physician-patient relationships- are unnecessary and not supported by the science. And we know that overly restrictive medical marijuana programs leave patients behind. But if implemented quickly and effectively, this program will help thousands of sick and suffering New Yorkers, who need help now."
"Passage of this measure comes as a relief to thousands of seriously ill New Yorkers and their families. Medical marijuana can be an effective treatment option for a variety of debilitating conditions. For some patients, it is their only option," said Karen O'Keefe, director of state policies for the Marijuana Policy Project.
"While the bill's passage is a significant step forward, it leaves behind thousands of patients. We hope the governor's staff promptly implements the measure and that the health department will approve additional qualifying conditions," O'Keefe added. "Voters overwhelmingly agree that seriously ill people should have legal access to medical marijuana."
Both the Drug Policy Alliance and the Marijuana Policy Project have worked along with state and local organizations for more than a decade to pass a medical marijuana bill in New York.

Chapter 6 : Sixth Year, Part Three
|Rating: Mature
|Chapter Reviews: 14
Background: Font color:
AN: I'd just like to start off by saying thanks for all the reviews! You're awesome! Second, I'm sorry it's so late. And finally, there are some of Lily's thoughts in here that might offend some people. I do not completely agree with these thoughts, nor necessarily does Lily. They are a product of the age, but I'm terribly sorry if I've offended you.
"H-how, how late?" He ran his fingers through his hair. He was avoiding eye contact.
"About two and a half weeks." She bit her lip.
"I-is that a- a lot?" His hand went to his hair again.
She took a deep breath. "It's enough to be worried."
He raised his head to meet her gaze. "What are we going to do?"
She shook her head. "I don't know."
He was regaining his composure. Hers was rapidly declining. "But, you don't know for sure yet, right?" She shook her head, "So how do we find out?"
"I don't know." She put her head down. He stepped toward her and put his hands on her arms. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay, Lily. It'll be okay." He rubbed her arms soothingly. She placed her forehead on his chest. "It can't be that hard can it? A spell or a potion or… something?"
"I don't know!" She got up from the table, and moved away from him. "I don't know any of this and I can't ask anyone! There are no books or anything!" She stood up and began pacing. "I don't know what to do."
"Hey," He moved toward her again. He placed his hands on her shoulders. "Just calm down." He pulled her into a hug, and thought for a moment, "Do you know any muggle ways?"
"Yeah," she breathed, "but I don't see how that'll help."
"I—I can get you into Hogsmeade, and Remus can apparate-"
"I can apparate." She looked up at him. "Remus can't know."
"Of course. Then you can apparate to a muggle town, and we can find out." She nodded, "And we can deal with the rest when we get there."
A plan was set. They would leave on Saturday, as not to miss any classes. That left Lily with three excruciating days to think.
She was going to have a baby. A baby. A needy, crying, baby. There was a tiny little piece of her and James growing inside of her. It was a bizarre notion. How was she supposed to take care of it? She would have to drop out of school. How could she find a job if she had to drop out of school? How could she make enough money to care for a baby if she did find a job?
She couldn't expect her parents to support her. Her parents would never support a teenage pregnancy. Or one out of wedlock.
Dear Merlin, she was going to have to marry James.
Her parents would force them. She needed him anyway. He could find a job; support them. He could take care of them.
She couldn't marry James. She just couldn't. She didn't even like him. Not that much anyway. He was immature and mean, and, and, and she just couldn't marry him. But surely, she would have to. There was no other option.
Well, at least the sex would be good. And he could always make her laugh. He was generally fun, when he wasn't being a git. He could be responsible when he wanted. He-he would be a good father. He had to be. Because this little piece of him growing inside of her was perfect and innocent and deserved to have two parents who loved it and would take good care of it. She loved it already, and she wasn't even sure it was there. He would love it too. Right?
Yes, definitely.
He had to.
He would.
They met on the fourth floor. Lily was completely unsure of how this would get them anywhere or help them at all, but she was positive that James knew, and she trusted him.
She arrived before he did. She sat in the empty classroom they had designated, their favorite for interludes, twiddling her thumbs, anxiously waiting for him. She was in the right room, right? Had he forgotten?
He arrived shortly after. She sighed in relief as he approached her. "Are you ready to go?" he breathed. She nodded. "Okay then, let's go."
She followed him to the door, but he blocked the path before she went through. "What are you-" he had pulled out a piece of parchment, and muttered something Lily didn't catch.
"Just be patient, Lil." He scolded her. He maintained his gaze on the parchment, but blocked her view of it. After a moment, he moved, and motioned for her to follow him.
They walked down the corridor a ways, until they came to a mirror. James stopped, and Lily nearly ran into him. James somehow managed to open the mirror to reveal a corridor behind it.
Lily gasped, and James motioned for her to enter. She slipped in; he followed her. The mirror closed behind them. "Where are we going?" she whispered.
She couldn't see him in the dark, but she swore he was smirking, "Hogsmeade, of course."
"How?" He lit his wand, and Lily found that he was indeed smirking.
He began walking; Lily followed him. "Secret passage way." She stood in confusion for a moment before James realized she was no longer following him and turned around. He faced her, "Come on!"
She jogged to catch up with him, and the two walked down the dark corridor together.
"Where do we need to go?"
"A muggle town, I guess." Lily answered him. The two had arrived in Hogsmeade without incident, and were now standing outside of the passage, avoiding crowds and people who may have recognized them.
"You did say you could apparate, right?"
"Yes. My birthday's in January. I'm legal."
He laughed, "Well, I'm not. So, I'm going to have to side along."
"Okay." She nodded. "Ready?" He nodded and stepped toward her. He grabbed tightly onto her arm.
"All set."
"Well, here we go, then." She turned on her heel, and with a loud crack, the two disappeared and landed in a muggle town the Evans family had visited once on holiday. Lily figured that no one would recognize her there, and it wasn't too far from Hogwarts, anyway.
"Now where are we going?" James asked after they had recovered.
She thought for a moment, "A pharmacy, I guess." James looked confused. "It's this way, I think, just come on."
She led the way, stopping only briefly to admire a pretty necklace in a shop window. They arrived at the pharmacy, and Lily slipped inside. James offered to accompany her, but fearing his mischievous nature in a shop full of unfamiliar things, Lily thought it best to order him to remain outside. "I'll just be a few minutes. Stay. Here."
She located the pregnancy tests after an intense and infuriating search. She was seriously debating summoning one as she stumbled across them in a secluded corner. Grudgingly, she grabbed one, and shuffled to the counter. Of course, the only cashier working was a relatively attractive teenage male. She avoided eye contact with him as she slid a few pounds over to him.
"Say," she glanced up at him, blushing, "do you, um, have a loo I could use?" He pointed toward a door, and she waved in gratitude. She found her way there, and read the directions three times. She used the test, hid it skillfully in her pocket, and made her way out the door to meet James.
He was right where she had left him, waiting patiently for her. When he saw her approaching, he glanced up at her expectantly, cheerfully. She grabbed him by the arm, and pulled him into an alley near the store.
"What's the news?"
"Don't know yet. It takes some time."
"How long?" He was twitching.
She began to pace, and glanced at her watch. "About ten more minutes."
After ten agonizing minutes of pacing and forced conversation, Lily announced that they could check the results.
She pulled it out of the pocket she had kept it in to avoid staring at it manically, held it in her gaze, but closed her eyes. She tried to pry them open, but she simply could not. This was the moment of truth. Her entire future hung in the balance, determine by the presence or absence of a single blue line. She was going to know if there was something, someone growing inside of her, feeding on her life to create its own. She wanted to know. She needed to know.
But she couldn't look at it. What if she was pregnant? What would she do? How could she possibly care for the tiny little person she had created?
What if she wasn't? What if she was just herself, empty as ever? Would the emptiness she had felt over the summer begin to consume her again? She couldn't handle that. And how could she look at James knowing the bond they had almost, almost, had together.
She couldn't do it. "I can't, James, I can't look at it." She thrust the test at him, "You do it." She turned away from him.
"Um… What am I doing?" He was completely confused.
"Reading the test!" she snapped. Immediately she realized that James would not know how to read the test, so she softened, "See the little blue lines in the windows? If there's only one, then I'm not, if there's two… well, then we're in trouble." She spoke to the wall.
"But, Lily," his voice was still very confused. "There aren't any lines on here."
"What!?!" She snapped fiercely. She whipped around and snatched the test away from James. Without thinking, she looked at it, ready to cry in frustration, when she saw, mercifully, one blue line smiling back at her.
A great weight was removed from her shoulders. She looked up at James, who was grinning wildly at her. "Prick." She swatted him playfully. She looked down at it again; just to be sure her eyes were not deceiving her. They were not; she began laughing.
One, she thought, had to be the best number ever invented.
The two apparated back to Hogsmeade, and fifteen minutes found them a quarter of the way into the passage back to the castle. They had been merry, on the way back to Hogsmeade, and the first part of the passage, chatting, and occasionally squealing. But the glee from their discovery had faded a tad, and the pair fell into a comfortable silence.
Lily didn't mind. It left her free to contemplate the glories of the number one. Ah one, one blue line. Marvelous. One huge relief. One grin. One her.
She was one person. Alone. She hadn't exactly realized that until now. Maybe she had grown accustomed to the thought of sharing her body. She wasn't.
One was lonely.
James seemed to notice her shift in disposition, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah," she lied. "Just a little tired."
He eyed her skeptically, but resigned. "We're almost back." He stopped briefly and pulled out the piece of parchment he had had earlier.
"What is that?" she asked him.
"Nothing." He fiddled through the paper. Lily accepted his statement, and waited patiently for him to decipher whatever he was looking at. "Shit." He whispered harshly.
"What?" he reached into his cloak and pulled out a bundle of silvery material.
He threw it over her, "Keep this on. No one will be able to see you."
"What are yo-"
He shushed her, "Just do it! And keep quiet."
He started walking again, and Lily followed him. They hadn't taken ten steps when they heard other voices coming down the passage.
"What would he be doing down here without us?" The first voice questioned.
"Don't have a clue." A second voice chimed.
"Probably just fancied a walk down in Hogsmeade's all." A third added.
"Nah." The second voice was talking, "He's definitely up to something."
"What could it be?" It was the first voice.
"Probably something to do with the bird he's been shagging all year." The second voice said.
Lily froze in horror. James' face seemed to flash in anger, but he continued walking. "Hello, boys." He spoke when he came into the sight of his three friends, "What are you three doing down here?" They weren't acknowledging her, so Lily assumed that James had been honest when he said no one could see her.
"We could ask the same of you, Prongs." The second voice, now identified as Sirius Black, retorted.
"Just fancied a walk down in Hogsmeade's all."
"I told you, Padfoot." The third voice, Remus Lupin, scolded.
"He's lying. I can see it in his eyes."
"Nonsense!" James snapped, "Just because I don't spend all my time with you three…"
"You're either with us or that secret bird of yours." Peter finally spoke up.
"What are you talking about?" Lily realized that James was quite a good actor.
"Don't play dumb, even Remus knows it. And you know he refuses to think ill of anyone." Apparently, Sirius Black was very upset by the matter. Remus made a sound of objection.
James looked very guilty. "Fine, it's true." Lily was horrified.
The other three looked incredibly shocked. "Who is it?!" Peter wanted to know.
"I can't tell you that." Lily was slightly more relieved.
"Why not?" Sirius demanded.
"Because, Padfoot, she would kill me if I told you."
"It's not like she would ever know!" Peter exclaimed.
Both Sirius, and Remus' eyes widened in realization. "She's here!"
Lily took this as her cue to leave.
Lily lay in her bed, on her side, unblinking. She had been there since her return from Hogsmeade. She had deposited the strange material of James' in his room and come straight here. Her eyes stung, but she didn't close them. Thankfully, the room was empty. She was alone. Relieved, but lonely.
The door creaked open. She vaguely thought about turning and telling whoever had just come in to please go away, but didn't have the motivation to open her mouth. There were footsteps; a shift of weight on her bed told her that the intruder was now sitting next to her. She assumed it was Ella, perhaps Mary, or another of her roommates.
"Hey," it was James. "Alright there?" She nodded. "I thought we talked about this lying thing."
She sighed, and finally closed her eyes. "It's nothing."
He leaned closer to her, "It's obviously something. Why not just tell me?" she sighed again, "Are you upset about not being pregnant? I thought that was what you wanted?"
"It is." She shuffled over a bit, and he lay down beside her. "It's, just… it's stupid really."
"It's not stupid if it's upsetting you." He wrapped his upper arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him.
"I'm just lonely, I suppose. I got used to thinking there was another person with me all the time. And I'm glad that there's not, but I dunno… It's a little sad too."
"That's not stupid, Lily." He managed to put his lower arm under her head.
"Really?" She held onto the hand resting on her stomach, and snuggled into him.
"Not at all."
AN: Okay, another one. Sorry it's so late! There's a huge festival in my town that I'm very involved in that consumes a great deal of my time, and also school was ending, and I had massive amounts of work to do before I finished. But I am now officially done with high school! Woot!
Anyway, I'm sorry if this chapter sucked. I completely stopped writing it during the festival, and got really out of tune with it. That was a bad idea. But, there should be one last sixth year chapter to go. This one probably should have finished it off, but I feel like this scene needed to be on it's own.
Please review!
Love, Sunny

V-Rally 3 - GBA - Review
A month after its European release, V-Rally 3 hits stateside as the first texture-mapped GBA game, and it looks pretty darn good. The game is one of the most visually impressive games on the Game Boy Advance; it even rivals some of the Playstation's early efforts. However, the gameplay isn't quite on the same level as the graphics. The AI is rather dim and there are some pretty flaring collision detection issues. While it's got some great eye candy, V-Rally 3 turns out to be pretty average in the gameplay department.
V-Rally 3 features more than thirty different tracks in seven different world locations. Each of these locations has a different feel than the others, depending on road and weather conditions. You can optimize your rally car to deal with these changing conditions. Players can choose to race alone in time trial races, or you can race against other cars in the Rally Cross mode.
The gameplay is pretty decent, although there are some major problems apparent. The AI in the Rally Cross mode is one such problem. The opposing cars are frightfully slow, offering almost no challenge whatsoever. As you progress through the seasons in the game, the cars get a bit more difficult, but never to the point where they offer any real challenge. The collision detection is also a big problem. Cars will seemingly pass right through you and other racers without any problems. Also, cars going around a curve will appear in front of the curve as opposed to behind the curve as they should be shown.
As I had said earlier, the graphics in V-Rally 3 are definitely its high point. This game pushes the Game Boy Advance hardware to its limits. The 2D car sprites are nicely rendered and look really good. The environments are amazing, featuring great, detailed textures and a full 3D layout. Honestly, I had no idea the Game Boy Advance could pull off such neat tricks. While there are some problems (like the strange pasted-looking transition between the 2D cars and the 3D tracks), this game remains one of the most visually impressive games on the Game Boy Advance to date.
The sound manages to be pretty decent. The music is European techno, which you'll either love or hate. The sound effects sound pretty nice, from the engine sounds to the voice effects.
V-Rally 3 is great to look at, but it falls a little short in terms of gameplay. The AI is simplistic and the collision problems can cause much undue frustration. However, if you want a title that will dazzle you with amazing graphics, then V-Rally 3 puts on a great show.
Gameplay: 7.0
The racing in V-Rally 3 is pretty solid, but there are some pretty glaring problems. The AI isn't as thought out as it should be, and the collision problems are very irritating in the Rally Cross modes.
Graphics: 9.0
V-Rally 3's graphics are among the most impressive on the GBA. The texture-mapped environments look spectacular, and the car sprites look pretty nice. The only noticeable problem is the awkward transition between the 3D backgrounds and the 2D sprites, which tends to give the cars a very superimposed feel.
Sound: 7.0
The techno soundtrack is subtle yet satisfactory, and the engine sounds and voices sound pretty good.
Difficulty: Easy/Medium
Concept: 8.0
The game features a few different play modes, from solo time trials to a Rally Cross against three other cars. The tracks are nicely executed, and each has its own distinct feel.
Multiplayer: 7.5
The two-player races are pretty nice, but some four player action would've been nice.
Overall: 7.9
While the graphics are spectacular, V-Rally 3 falls a little short in the gameplay department. The dim-witted AI is too easy in the Rally Cross and the collision issues cause much annoyance. However, gamers looking for a pretty title to show off to their friends just what the GBA can do should look no further.

WEST HOLLYWOOD, California Mary J. Blige, Carlos Santana, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and MTV's Judy McGrath were honored with Rock the Vote Patrick Lippert Awards on Tuesday night for their activist efforts but you don't have to be a rock star to change the world, they said.
"As you know, we are all committed on this planet to spreading the spiritual virus," Santana said in accepting an award for his work with his Milagro Foundation, which supports the rights of indigenous people and strives to improve the lives of at-risk children. He then launched into a series of statistics regarding poverty, disease and civil and human rights.
"This guy is incomparable, inspirational, and he is the real deal," said Matchbox Twenty singer Rob Thomas, who presented his "Smooth" collaborator with the award.
The ceremony this year at the House of Blues and featuring performances by Foo Fighters, Black Eyed Peas, Jill Scott and Tenacious D is held annually by the nonpartisan, nonprofit organization Rock the Vote, dedicated to protecting freedom of expression and empowering young people to make change.
Blige was honored for her activism with the Partnership for a Drug Free America, the Million Family March, Special Olympics, M.A.C. AIDS Foundation and the Christopher Wallace Foundation, which is named for late rapper Notorious B.I.G. and raises money for schools.
"I feel like I deserve this award," the R&B singer said as she made her way into the venue.
After Eve presented her the honor, Blige stressed the importance of educating America's youth about voting and their ability to make change, while confessing she has yet to register to vote herself.
"We've got to educate the children on what to do for the future ... and even the grown-ups that don't know, because I am somebody that did not know, and never registered to vote, and never knew how to register to vote, and still gotta register to vote."
Moby presented McGrath, president of the MTV Group and chairman of interactive music, with the Founder's Award, recognizing her dedication to the organization over the past 11 years. MTV has contributed more than $10 million in on-air programming time and donations in support of the Rock the Vote initiatives.
"[McGrath] tells us that there are constructive outlets for people who are worried about the world's problems, as long as they seek them out," Moby said.
McGrath began her acceptance speech focusing on the recent presidential election, calling for reform within the voting system. "With the Florida fiasco and Supreme Court's rush to judgment, this last vote has not been rocked not totally and not really deep down."
Truly rocking the vote, she continued, is much more than simply casting ballots. "We have to encourage more people to enter the circle of fire ... so next time we'll actually have issues and candidates to get passionate about. ... Sure, we have an uphill battle, but that's really no problem, because time, rock and roll, R&B, rap and hip-hop are on our side."
Jackson received the Rock the Nation Award for his work with the Rainbow Coalition, Operation Breadbasket and Operation PUSH, among other initiatives.
Previous Rock the Vote honorees include Neil Young, R.E.M., Chuck D, U2's
Bono, Wyclef Jean, Sheryl Crow, the Beastie Boys and Sting.
Lippert, a former Rock the Vote president, led a voter registration project that resulted in a 20 percent increase in youth-voter turnout in the 1992 presidential election. He died in 1993 of AIDS-related pneumonia.

Docker Compose is a tool for managing Docker powered applications that consists of multiple containers. The way it works is that you describe the services that your container needs in a single file (the Docker Compose file) that lists out what services your application needs and creates the relevant containers for them by pulling down the relevant images from the web. For example, you might have a compose file that looks like:
version '2'
image: postgres
build: .
command: bundle exec rails s -p 3000 -b '0.0.0.0'
- .:/myapp
- "3000:3000"
- db
This compose file spins up a basic Ruby on Rails app with a Postgres database. There's some details about the container settings in this file such as what the name of the app is, where it should looks for files, and what port to run it on. If you're experienced in Rails development, this should all look very familiar to you.
The compose file can be written to add additional services as needed for you application. If you'd like a step by step guide on getting Rails up and running using Docker Compose, check out my free guide here!

"If you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one!",br> —Jesus
If there ever was a time for women to be armed, it's now.
Yet the Word of God is a sword we often are more comfortable studying than wielding. It's time we give girls swords and watch them connect heaven to earth. Worldwide, women are the targets of prejudice, sex trafficking, abuse, and even gendercide. Lisa Bevere writes that these attacks say more about who women might be in the future than who they have been in the past. In Girls with Swords she explains a spiritual enemy is seeking to disarm women on every level. It's time women become the heroes God created them to be and stand—courageous, discerning, forgiving, and wise.
Creatively forging the imagery of swords, the Word of God, and the Cross, Girls with Swords will teach you:
It's time to take up your sword and be a hero.

First sighting of the humpback whale Megaptera novaeangliae in the Tyrrhenian Sea and a mini-review of Mediterranean records
We report on the sighting of a humpback whale Megaptera novaeangliae for the Tyrrhenian Sea, where the species had not been observed previously. Since the 1980s the species has become an increasingly frequent visitor of the Mediterranean Sea, where the mean observation rate is ca. 0.1 subjects/year. The sighting was made on December 10, 2015 at 10 a.m. local time, in the shallow waters of Baia, in the Gulf of Naples (Campania Region, Southern Italy, 40° 49' 0" N, 14° 04' 00" E). The increased sighting frequency of humpback whales suggests that in the near future this species will become more common in the Mediterranean. We remark that Marine Protected Areas might play an important role in protecting the species but appropriate management and effective mitigation of potential threats are essential.

If you're not familiar with the incredibly shot, highly anticipated indie film The Dwarves of Demrel, then allow me the pleasure of introducing you to it. DoD is an incredibly beautiful #fantasy feature from Plastic Tree Productions, due for release in Spring 2017.
Shot in an actual mine, DoD's story follows three Dwarven miners — Brenn, Calcas & Odryd — who find themselves unfortunately and terrifyingly imprisoned in a mine. They soon learn that they're not alone, and the trio must work together & do everything in their power to avoid what seems to be their inevitable demise.
In addition to the main trio, there's also a mysterious female character, Drusso, who the Dwarves know very little about and incidentally, aren't too keen on trusting.
We've seen tons of #BTS pics during the shoot from DoD, of both the cast and crew. We've got an in-depth look at the intricate detail behind the aesthetics of the upcoming fantasy feature, and we've spoken to the masterminds behind the magic, filmmakers Christopher Raney & Zachary W. Amundson.
We've even seen a pretty badass teaser trailer cut together after only 4 days of shooting! But alas, that's not enough. We've done our waiting, and now we're stomping our feet in anticipation of MORE.
Without Further Ado, Check Out The First Full Trailer for 'The Dwarves of Demrel'!
How amazing does that look?! This artfully shot indie film has had a ton of hard work put into it, both in-front of and behind the scenes. From custom prosthetics, elaborate costumes and custom-made boots to make the cast of regular actors appear shrunken to Dwarf size, no detail was overlooked in the making of Dwarves of Demrel.
When asked how you make regular actors appear Dwarf-sized, Steve Starkey — the man responsible for those elaborate costumes you see — had this to say.
Yes, we oversize certain aspects such as boots and belts, but we constantly need to be balancing. We want the Dwarves to come from their own world. Pieces like gloves & helmets need to fight the size he is, accumulated from his own world, not taken from a world of "normal" sized people.The proportions are paramount to the design, as a human sized character is introduced, the differences need to be easily seen without noticing.Our process's gives the audience a visual history to the character and can easily create emotion without scripted dialogue.
Speaking about the Steampunk-esque look of the film, including location and costuming, Zach and Chris (aforementioned masterminds) talk about how the concept for that came from their very own concept artist, Sam Wohl.
Sam Wohl -a concept artist on the film - gave the Dwarves steam-punk-esque goggles and that sort of transformed our "medieval" Dwarves to more Victorian/industrial ones.
Of course, pretty costuming is but a small part of this film's process. Prosthetic noses and fingers are all apart of the magic behind this feature. Custom fit for each individual actor playing a Dwarf, the prosthetics - along with the costuming and of course some expert cinematography — help to make these characters look and feel as believable as possible.

The mine in which DoD is shot is a privately owned, previously untouched mine that now acts as the main location for the upcoming film. Unlike caves / mines open to the public, the main location for DoD has remained relatively undisturbed since its opening for public tours, and as such provides a perfect location for this fantasy feature.
