Trouble in the (former) swamplands? Now, that's a shocker, ain't it?
A bit of fever-dream perspective can be found in an old (and, heck, aren't they all? Will there EVER be another issue? Darned if I know . . .) issue of DeScope that found the connections between Walt's familial ties to agrarian socialism, the future fair nightmare of The Firesign Theatre, and living the good life in Central Florida splendor. All this is pre-housing bubble, so go figure . . .

Case of 6
"Tiny berry- and desiccated concentration rather than botrytis characterize even the 2009 Vouvray Moelleux Clos du Bourg Moelleux 1er Trie. This evinces an as yet unresolved tension between fresh citrus, chalk, and alkali on the one hand, and honey, caramel, and nut paste on the other. For all of its ripeness, there is a sense of textural firmness underlying the palate impression here. Marzipan, singed vanilla cookies, and suggestions of both peach and strawberry preserves enhance the wine's confectionary aura, and despite its manifestly good strong acidity by vintage standards, the nearly 100 grams of residual sugar present here certainly result in a dominating youthful sweetness in its formidably long finish. If you want this to balance on its own (i.e. not in a dessert wine capacity) then I would be prepared to wait more than a decade, and the wine no doubt has at least three in it. Pinguet says this reminds him of the 1989 1er trie bottlings at the same stage."

As an established leader in the Not-for-Profit community of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky since 1946, VonLehman is pleased to forward to you the following important information. Please check back often for ongoing critical updates, insights and articles relevant to our regional not-for-profit community.
RE: Important Changes to Ohio Charitable Registration
Dear Non-Profit Organization:
On behalf of The Ohio Attorney General's Office, VonLehman's Not-for-Profit Service Group, along with other leaders in the community, have been asked to convey the following information to our clients and friends in Cincinnati's Not-for-Profit community. As leaders and advisors in this critical sector of our community, we ask you to please review the information provided here and visit the website listed below.
If you still have questions about the content of this letter or the information presented on the Ohio Attorney General's website listed below, please feel free to contact Lori Warden, CPA (firstname.lastname@example.com/513.891.5911), or any member of VonLehman's Not-for-Profit Service Group team (http://www.vlcpa.com/industries/not-for-profit) or email us via firstname.lastname@example.com.
From the Ohio Attorney General, Mike DeWine, Important Changes to Ohio Charitable Registration (2011 and beyond)
Big changes are coming to the way Ohio charities and non-profits must register with the Ohio Attorney General's Office, and our Charitable Law Section is here to make sure your organization is prepared and can continue serving the needs of Ohio families.
Numerous recent revisions to the statutory language and rules will change the registration process. Soon all filings will be completed on-line through a new charitable registration system that will eliminate paper forms and more accurately determine applicable statutes and required fees. The Ohio Attorney General has also adopted changes in state filing requirements to make them more consistent with IRS filing requirements.
The new system provides email confirmations on filings and reminders of upcoming deadlines. Multiple representatives from the same organization may register to receive updates and reminders, thereby helping to avoid oversights and late filings during leadership transitions.
The Ohio Attorney General's website will be available to help potential donors avoid sham charities and fraudulent solicitations, confirm an organization is properly registered and compliant with charitable regulations, and decide wisely where to direct their donations.
Mandatory on-line filing is effective immediately for all non-profits with fiscal years ending after November 30, 2011. Non-profits that have not yet filed for fiscal periods ending prior to November 30 should also use the new on-line charitable registration system. Soon paper forms will no longer be available on the Ohio Attorney General's Website; questions regarding use of the on-line system for earlier fiscal filing periods should be directed to 1-800-282-0515.
The Ohio Attorney General Office's website contains a user's guide and tool tips which answers questions you may have about the new registration system (www.OhioAttorneyGeneral.gov/CharitableRegistration).
Thank you for your cooperation.
Very respectfully yours,
VonLehman & Company
Mike DeWine
Ohio Attorney General

Datamining actually suggests a Stormwind instance was added, though it's hard to say what that could mean.
That sounds fun enough, I guess, but I think I'd like a CoT instance where the Horde players aren't forced to cosplay as humans just to fit in. Particularily forcing Horde players to fight Horde characters in an event that's used to justify Varian's hatred of the Horde might be a little too one-sided.
Furious Kalleck said...
Flip it on it's tail: You're not there to escort Varian to Lothar, but to escore Garona to assassinate the King.
That'll have you playing as an orc.
scherbaddie said...
Actually that'd have you playing as humans again, Garona was a trusted member of Llane's court and having a band of unruly orcs following her around wouldn't exactly help her role as an assassin.

SBRI Competition
The IPO SBRI completion evaluation stage has now been completed and the following projects have been selected to receive support from the IPO.
University of Surrey
A novel scheme for countering unauthorised usage of digital media content
The project will investigate a novel technology for protecting digital content like music and video downloaded via the internet. Digital content which has been obtained illegally is automatically blocked by the system. A key feature of the proposed technology is not to inconvenience legitimate users like existing Digital Rights Management systems do: Users don't need to worry about how to configure and use the system; they just use their devices as usual without even knowing about its existence. The technology is patent-pending and further details will be available once it is published.
The proposal will benefit the media industry by drastically reducing the number of music and films pirated, protecting the future funding of new works, benefitting consumers.
White Bullet Solutions
The Standard for Online IP Risk Assessment
whiteBULLET is an intellectual property (IP) solutions company, which has created the first global standard to rate websites by reference to IP infringement risk. It does this by directly gathering over 400 data points per website and analysing this information using both automated and human review processes that calculate individual website scores. This allows for classification of all websites into low, medium or high risk within the IP Infringement Index (IPI Index).
The solutions built around the dynamic IPI Index can apply to numerous Internet stakeholders, for example: (1) brands and advertising intermediaries wanting to place digital adverts on a more informed basis and (2) rights holders wishing to refine their online IP strategies. This should ultimately foster a safer consumer environment on the Internet and promote legitimate business online.
More information about other Technology Strategy Board SBRI competitions can be found on the Technology Strategy Board website .

First off, sorry this one took so long to get out. I was busy with school work for the longest time and wasn't able to start work on this until just recently. But here it is, finally done, the third part of the series and a remake of the old one. Added a few more battles to this one to make up for the lack of battles in the last one. I've also added some timed hits to the battles so make sure to read the comabt tutorial before starting. With that said enjoy part 3!

2005-2006: Abhishek Bachchan for 'Sarkar'
Having started his career with the average grosser, 'Refugee' (2000), Abhishek braved a dozen mega flops before making a mark on the commercial circuit with 'Dhoom' (2004). The Small B is a hot favourite with most of the critics if not the trade pundits. Post-'Dhoom', it has been a smooth ride for Abhi, both in terms of commercial success and critical acclaim.

Karen's Late Late Show
Doctor Who star Karen Gillan was the latest member of the cast to appear on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson this week, in an interview that was curiously recorded last week.
Getting excited over a TARDIS desk ornament and looking like a real life doll, Ms Gillan is in fine form for the interview, which we can show you right here…
By now, most of you will have seen The Impossible Astronaut, but if you haven't, bear in mind that this clip was intended for viewers as a taster for the new series of Doctor Who on BBC America.

Making a Difference
Neighborhoods of poverty, crime – perfect place for Peace Camp, Sister Val says
In order to transform the lives of young people, Sister Valerie Zottola knows she must reach far beyond the marble walls of Mount St. Peter Church, a thriving congregation of middle and upper-middle class parishioners in New Kensington.
The magnificent church towers high above the Allegheny River and overlooks the poorest neighborhoods in Westmoreland County. Approximately one-half of the New Kensington/Arnold residents are below the poverty level, according to U.S. Census data. The high school drop-out rate is the highest in the county, and substance abuse and crime statistics are just as staggering.
"It's the perfect setting for Peace Camp," says Sister Valerie who is preparing for her fourth Peace Camp at Mount St. Peter Parish.
"Because of the demographics of the area, my hope would be that our young campers would learn alternative, nonviolent ways to settle conflicts," she says.
"My hope for the high school and college counselors is that they will experience a change in attitudes and perceptions related to the poor and racially different communities."
For the past six years, Sister Valerie's parish ministry focused on the faith formation of youth and young adults. Recently, she was named Director of Faith Formation, which encompasses service to all parishioners.
Sister Valerie's enthusiasm for serving and inspiring young people began in the classroom 25 years ago. She taught at Mt. Gallitzin Academy and St. Raphael School, and served as principal of Holy Rosary School and assistant principal at North Catholic High School.
In her bright and cheery office at Mount St. Peter, Sister Valerie is surrounded by a colorful collage of youthful creativity and exuberance - from the peace crane tree to the gallery of hand-made art and photos. She cites an author who contends that young people are all about effecting change through big ideas and life-changing projects. Creating opportunities for this to happen is the exciting part for Sister Valerie.
"Trying to create opportunities where people can begin to develop relationships of mutual respect across racial, social and economic boundaries is the fruit of the gift or charism that I share as a Sister of St. Joseph," she says.
As an outgrowth of the Sisters of St. Joseph Peace Camp that was established in 2001, the camp at Mount St. Peter partners with the neighboring United Presbyterian Church of New Kensington. In its fourth year, the camp has grown annually, serving children in grades three to eight as well as high school and college counselors. Sister Valerie hopes to attract 50 campers this summer.
In an effort to apply the message of nonviolence to real-life situations beyond the weeklong camp. Sister Valerie last year instituted Peace Camp Pledges. As a result of this new initiative, nearly half of the campers were recognized for fulfilling their peace pledges during an awards ceremony this past February.
"I have learned stories in which neighborhood youth actually back down from a physical confrontation and used the skills they had learned in Peace Camp," recalls Sister Valerie. "And, most importantly, they liked this new behavior."
In addition to Peace Camp, Sister Valerie finds especially fruitful her weekly visits to a local public high school and the Friends in Haiti program where youths from the parish correspond with young Haitians. The youth also have collected clothing items and volunteered at the parish Community Clothes Closet which serves families in need.
Making "church" youth-friendly is a challenge, and Sister Valerie concedes that the "youth group" model no longer proves to be effective. To continue to explore new ways to engage young people in the development of their faith, Sister Valerie established a Youth Ministry Advisory Board of six youths and five adults.
"I love working with young people," she says. "I find them especially idealistic and passionate about their dreams. My hope is that I might be one catalyst to them to follow their dreams."

Not transition... just poor planning
Likewise, great teams do more than just dominate. They leave an indelible imprint in our minds, one of greatness, and an ideal to live up to.
Once a truly great team disbands, we have but hollowness; at its best, the team will only ever be imitated, and if surpassed, then certainly not in our lifetime. Like a species going extinct, we will never see their likeness again, and for cricket fans, the moment of realization can be acute.
We mope around in denial, surfing nostalgia in our sepia-toned highlights. And so, it's only natural that when the next iteration of our team arrives, and they only succeed in underwhelming us, we struggle to come to terms.
One reason that we view previous generations through such hallowed filters is because as fans, our psychological make-up informs us and implores us to be revisionists. We are selective in our memories, often thanks to a media who reinforce the notion with lunchtime features that emphasize "The Greatest Moments in Australia's Ashes History" rather than "Kim Hughes' Australian Nightmare."
The old days seem best because we are only too eager to consume content from our heroes - fans lap up what Steve Waugh, Allan Border and Richie Benaud have to say, subconsciously instigating the comparison between their respective eras and the modern one, reinforcing the disparity between past and present. On the other hand, it's hard to imagine DVDs of Australia's whitewash to the West Indies ever flying off the shelves in Victoria.
We tend to block out the bad times of past - England's 5-0 defeat in 2006-07 never happened, and India's back-to-back away whitewashes were but a figment of your imagination - yet we remain acutely aware of current failings. As sport fans, we tend to universally suffer from an accepted cognitive dissonance that is so deep-rooted, it is either tacitly accepted, or we are simply too sentimental about to truly acknowledge.
"A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within." - Will Durant
After losing the second Ashes Test at Lord's, Australia equalled their second-worst streak in history, of six consecutive defeats. This precipitated a hailstorm of theories attempting to identify the root cause of the decline.
It is often said that the current Australian side is one in 'transition', yet once we unpack this corporate-speak, it becomes apparent that it is merely an excuse. 'Transition' is that most ideal of terms for a cricket administrator: an intangible and thus seemingly incontrovertible term that is abused as a get-out-of-jail safe word when tough questions are on the horizon.
Transition is all but a synonym for poor planning. It is a symptom of short-termism, because all international sides are in a state of constant transition. It is disingenuous to bat puppy eyes and imply that fans must accept a nation's indefinite 'dark night of the soul', every time it loses a Ponting, Hussey or Gilchrist.
The key lies in long-term planning at the expense of short-term results, something that rarely has an incentive and is therefore almost never given the due credit it deserves (England are the current leaders in succession planning). Other excuses for Australia's current failings abound: Cricket Australia's prideful flaunting of a Big Bash League television deal was widely criticized for its timing in the aftermath of defeat, and was held up as a perfect example of the rot that that has enveloped Australian cricket.
In a similar vein, the BBL itself has been scapegoated for averting the gaze of Australia's cricketers away from Test aspirations, as if it were a buxom vamp, a Siren guiding hapless cricketers into career shipwreck.
Yet, none of this explains away the fact that India managed to achieve the No. 1 ranking in all three formats, despite the apparent handicap of spending two months a year in the IPL. Also, the proliferation of BBL has hardly helped Australia excel in the shortest format: they are currently ranked 7th.
So, perhaps it's time to look past the finger-pointing and appreciate that either this current crop of cricketers simply isn't good enough, or more likely, that whilst Australia's bowling remains excellent, batting stocks are running at a freakishly low, cyclical trough - emphasized because the preceding generation consisted of Hall of Fame behemoths.
It's been over forty years since the break-up of The Beatles, and fans still long for the next White Album.
In your heart of hearts, you knew there would be pale iterations to come of The Beatles, Waugh's Australians, your first love. You know that there might even worthy approximations, but over time you'd appreciate that the chemistry of it all, that naive flutter, was to be far more unique than you could have ever appreciated at the time.

We recently received a 2009 Hyundai Elantra Touring into the Top Speed test fleet. Starting at only $17,800 this Vivid Blue beauty is easily one of the most stylish Korean cars we have seen in a while. The front end is made up of aggressive curves that create sharp lines that keep your eyes glued to the little five door hatchback. Not only is the body attractive but also tasteful thanks to the vehicle's design team using just the right amount of chrome trim to dress up the car without making it look gaudy. We especially love the $1,500 Premium Sports Package that includes a set of 17 inch, dual finish rims. In theory it sounds like a very tacky item, but the Elantra is able to pull it off well, quite possibly because of that blue body.
Inside the Elantra, the Premium Package benefits spill over in the form of a power sunroof and heated seats, which is interesting considering that they are still wrapped in cloth. One thing that is impressive about the interior of the Elantra Touring is that despite the vehicle's rather small footprint it is extremely spacious on the inside. The audio serves up tunes in the form of AM/FM/XM radio with an in dash CD player and a very convenient AUX input for any MP3 storage device that you may own. The trunk offers a hidden shelf underneath the floor and plenty of storage with the back seats up and a whole lot more when they are down.
Continued after the jump.
The Elantra Touring is powered by an ultra low emissions 2.0 Liter 16 valve CVVT four cylinder engine that makes 138 HP and 136 lb-ft of torque. The 14 gallon fuel tank gives the efficient Elantra a range of up to 420 miles getting as much as 23 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. The Hyundai Elantra Touring is an affordable attractive vehicle with plenty of cargo space and a few creature comforts that go a long way, it looks like our little blue hatch will be pretty fun to drive.

The Titanic was thought indestructible in its time and after it sank into the frigid Atlantic, much of the blame went to construction and navigation. While weather data was much scarcer a century ago, the numbers are there if you know where to look.
Footage from submersibles show our modern-day displays in their original home. While passenger's final minutes were no doubt dramatic, the weather just before was anything but.
Seas were placid and conditions were deceptively calm. Strong north winds from late that winter pushed icebergs far south into the Atlantic. With Greenland icebergs a known, numerous ice warnings were sent from other liners. By then, the Titanic was already dealing with slushy seas. Several cold fronts passed through but one early on the morning of the 14th was especially strong.
With that cold front passing through, temperatures dropped from 60 to 33 in just a matter of hours. The sea water, at 28 degrees, was easily could enough for icebergs to linger. An Arctic dome of high pressure formed right behind that front. It's been calculated at 1037 millibars, very strong for April in that area. That kept seas glassy and winds light. Those calm seas may have helped survivors cling onto overturned lifeboats.
That may not have been the only oddity. Theories hold that there although no moon was visible, there was actually a supermoon in place, with the moon close to earth. That could have caused iceberg traffic, as Carl Nelson explains.
"Many of them come off of the glaciers and then get stuck in shallower water near Newfoundland. But a greater tide, a higher tide, could have liberated more of those, shooting them into the ocean, creating a more dangerous situation."
Others believe there was a mirage created by a false horizon and that the iceberg wasn't seen until it was too late. Lookouts spotted a haze that may have come from bending light. The same rarity has actually been spotted along the Lake Erie shoreline in past weeks, with the sun appearing to rise twice.

Innocence over Dentention2 Reviews
Orochimaru remembers the only detention Sarutobi ever gave him.
Disclaimer: Speaking of which, Kishimoto invented and owns Oro-chan and Jiraiya-kun. Though I'm not certain if anyone can own Orochi-pants. Oh well, either way, I'm making no profit off of them. Sigh.
Orochimaru plucks the tattered book from Kabuto's hands before the medic can even open the small volume. He looks at the simple black cover, and fingers the places where the binding has worn through the cardboard. "I put some of my original notes in here," he muses aloud, before turning away from the rest of the minions ransacking this library before they head to a new base. "I have some re-reading to do, don't disturb me," he orders, and heads for his room. Kabuto might walk in on him, but if the boy does, Orochimaru will feed him to Black Mamba without a second thought. The secrets contained in this journal are worth keeping to himself.
He lights the lanterns in his room and sits on the edge of the futon, before opening to the first page. There, in fading ink that was once black and crisp but is now brown and fuzzy, are the bold strokes of his sensei. The instructions for the month long detention he had to serve for nearly getting himself and Jiraiya killed during a mission because they were fighting with each other over – Orochimaru can't remember. It was something unimportant, probably Tsunade. He traces the lines of characters with his finger.
Orochimaru: Write 50 times: "I will get to know my teammates better." Then hand the journal to Jiraiya, and wait for him to finish.
Jiraiya: Wait for Orochimaru to finish, and then write 50 times: "I will learn not to rise to Orochimaru's bait"
This journal was the only real punishment the old man had ever given him. It had been the most annoying punishment Sensei had ever given Jiraiya. Orochimaru remembered the complaints of the white haired boy filling the summer afternoon as Orochimaru grudgingly, obediently, copied his lines. For each line the Third had told him to think about his team mates. By line thirty-eight Orochimaru was still on Jiraiya. Each line he reads now makes him remember the thoughts then, mainly all fourty nine ways he imagined killing Jiraiya, and the fiftieth where the sickening realization had set into young Orochimaru's brain that death still might not have been enough to get Jiraiya to shut up.
He chuckles slightly to himself. Death shuts everyone up. He just didn't realize back then that he liked Jiraiya's inventive complaints and imprecations against their sensei. Past his neat, graceful characters, done with the same classic brush strokes that his sensei used, Jiraiya's large, and uncompromisingly blocky characters stare out of the page in stubbornly red ball point ink. Funny how beauty fades with time, but ugliness stays the same.
Orochimaru cracks his spine for a moment, fighting with himself. If he turns the page he knows he'll have to read the whole four week struggle with the journal in detention. He'll relive those emotions long buried. Hell, he might even miss those days, if he turns the page and continues to read. But it's been so long, so very long since he had contact with this magic book of remembrance, he doesn't think it can really be all that powerful. He settles into a comfortable slouch, and turns the page, to read the instructions for the second week.
Orochimaru: Write the ten things that you hate most about Jiraiya, then pass the journal over.
Jiraiya: Write the ten things you hate most about Orochimaru, then give the journal back
Ten (least aggravating) - Jiraiya exists.
Nine (slightly more aggravating) - He taught you that annoying spying technique of his, and now I have to listen to Tsunade complain about having to deal with two perverts.
Seven (completely aggravating) - His idea of a good joke is putting a frog down the back of my shirt.
Six (something so aggravating that I might break his arm for it) - Jiraiya snores.
Five (I am definitely going to get revenge for this) - He tricked me into giving Tsunade a bra for her birthday, and the card read: "Grow some breasts." I'm going to see to it that he feels the beating I felt.
Four (a good reason to kill him) - He takes away your valuable attention from me with his stupid stunts.
Three (the second part of my death reasoning) - When everyone in Hidden Leaf knows he's too stupid to tie his shoelaces together, let alone actually learn anything a real shinobi needs to know.
Two (why I will rip his tongue out before I kill him) - He will not stop calling me gay. Not that I mind the actual insult, but the repetition of it drives into my skull like a drill bit. Has the idiot no originality?
One (the thing I hate the most about Jiraiya) - He's not worthy enough to hate, and yet I do.
Orochimaru smiles at his carefully ordered list. He's almost tempted to make a new list. But he continues to read, instead. The next section isn't enlightening, for him, yet he still thinks it's the best section of the book.
1. Orochimaru is gay
2. He didn't go shopping for Tsunade's birthday present, and stole the one I got for her instead.
3. He drowns puppies! Well, maybe not, but he looks like he would.
4. He glares at me all the time.
5. When he blushes it looks weird. He wears too much make-up.
6. He doesn't like me.
7. He's smarter than me.
8. He knows it.
9. He isn't nice to me, and doesn't follow any of my schemes.
10. He told Tsunade about my scheme for the women's bath, just to piss me off and get me beaten up.
With Jiraiya's large, ugly hand writing, the "Hate List" covers two pages, and Sensei left a clean page between it and the next week's task. Orochimaru turns the blank parchment reluctantly. The third week had been strange for the two in any case. Tsunade had her period, and complained bitterly that her mother took her bra shopping declaring that she was now a "B." Sensei had an unrelated headache brought on by a nose bleed. And Jiraiya had convinced Orochimaru to experiment with alcohol while the Third Hokage was unable to guard his liquor supply. They had turned the second list into a shot game. Each time you wrote a point down, you took a drink. Whatever drink your partner offered. Orochimaru was certain that the sticky red liquid Jiraiya had handed him after number six had contained something more than alcohol
Orochimaru: Write down ten things that you like about Jiraiya, and then pass the journal over
Jiraiya: Please do the same, and then hand the journal back to Orochimaru.
One: Jiraiya is too stupid to know when I'm insulting him. Let's see, he'd been given a shot of sake for that one, and Jiraiya had tried to give him a clout upside the head, because Jiraiya wasn't as stupid as Orochimaru liked to pretend he was. Only Orochimaru still had enough reflexes to duck the angry palm, and shoot back his sake without spilling a drop. He really liked being thirteen.
Two: On missions I can always count on him. Mainly to screw up, but he has pulled a few good saves out of his ass. Number two had been a shot of single malt whiskey, and it had burned going down almost as much as admitting that Jiraiya was almost capable of being a shinobi.
Three: He doesn't know when to give up. Orochimaru smirked as he read that one. It was his favorite quality, the one he'd taken the most pains to break. Because the shattered fragments were even more beautiful, in some ways, than the original work of art. Hmm. The drink had been green, he was pretty sure. Green as the eyes of jealousy.
Four: Jiraiya always brings extra blankets along on missions. Come to think of it, his stomach had been feeling a bit wobbly by the time he was given the shot of bitter red wine that came with his fourth declaration. But he hadn't been drunk enough to write the real fourth reason he liked Jirraiya. When Jiraiya was asleep he unconsciously tried to cuddle whatever was in his reach, be it pillow or blanket, or person. The fits Tsunade had thrown made up for the amount of embarrassment that Orochimaru suffered from actually being touched by someone.
Five: He doesn't think about the future. Orochimaru is surprised that this fact still makes him feel jealous in a certain odd way. He had been well on his way to being truly tipsy at that point, and whatever Jiraiya had handed him (while telling him to wipe the make-up off, because one: he looked gay, and two: Orochimaru blushed when he was drunk, and it was creepy, damn it) had been far too sweet and fruity. He remembered yelling at Jiraiya that he was not drunk, and if Jiraiya wanted to talk gay again, well, he'd show him! Ah, the innocence of youth and experimentation of alcohol.
Six: Jiraiya is braver than I am when it comes to people. He hadn't liked this about Jiraiya, but he had admired the way Jiraiya was not aloof, and by then the sticky red thing which tasted oddly of oysters had been in his hand, and he'd gulped it down to accompany the other various poisons. Orochimaru gazes at the characters, which had started to slant and stagger at this point, still filled with boneless grace, but confused and uncertain, like young cats learning how to walk.
He remembers thinking that he was drunk, and that he had to concentrate. Number seven took agonizingly long to write because at the time he was trying to think of anything other than how gay it sounded to write: "I like that he holds me when he's asleep, and I get too close." The sprawling characters, instead, declared that Seven: Jiraiya isn't a genius, and I like that. And he'd still been fighting off the warmth from the alcohol, and the stupid sentimentality that went along with Jiraiya's cuddling habits as he swallowed something that tasted like berries and lemons.
The next line of characters is as hazy as his thought process had been at the time. The warm afternoon, and sunny atmosphere of the deserted school house had been turning the drinks sour in his stomach, and making him want to curl up on the floor and sleep, rather than finish the lines Sensei had ordered him to finish. He had wanted to curl in on himself, and maybe reach out and pull someone within that curl, and embrace them too, because it was sooooo warm, and he was soooo sleepy, and sleeping with someone wrapped so tightly that they couldn't breathe just made everything warmer. Eight: Jiraiya makes me want to be better with people.
In the lantern lit room Orochimaru suddenly smirks, and laughs. He knows where the memories are going to go, but right there, number eight, the words are so precious to him. Before he kills Jiraiya he must remember to tell his best friend that the reason he got so good at manipulating people into loving him is because he was trying to emulate Jiraiya the best way he knew how. Should make the idiot's heart curl in on it's desperate self.
Nine: Jiraiya's constant. Constantly annoying. Constantly perverted. Constantly stupid. Constantly there. His hand had slipped on the glass, and Orochimaru wonders why it was just then that he started to realize that shot glasses shouldn't be able to double duty as tea cups, and that Tsunade's mother was going to kill them before her daughter ever could. Jiraiya had seemed more concerned by the fact that he hadn't taken a full gulp of the funny lime thing, and Orochimaru winces at the recollection of the double shot to make up for that.
Ten is scrawled across a single page. The thing I like most about Jiraiya is: He exists.
Jiraiya had told him that it was the gayest thing ever to write. Orochimaru remembers yelling something about it being irony, dolt, and Jiraiya should use his brain for once, and no wonder everyone hated him. And he remembers with something that should have been delight, should have been excitement, should have been smug, that Jiraiya's face just sort of broke. And Orochimaru had been swaying, with the room tipping and tilting around him, and black had been flying at him. Jiraiya wasn't crying. He was just cold and his face had broken. They were boysboysboys. They argued all the time. Orochimaru always said these things. And Jiraiya always called him gay. And then they'd fight, either with their fists or words or ninjitsu (which Jiraiya still sucked at). That was what boys did.
Jiraiya just threw the ink pot at him, and snatched the journal. He poured himself his own shots. He wrote in silence. It was like Orochimaru wasn't even there, with ink dripping down his pale, pale face with its drunken blush. It was like Orochimaru didn't even matter. It didn't matter that his cream colored shirt was dirty with black ink. It didn't matter that they had actually been enjoying the drinking game. It didn't matter that they had been getting along, or that a few moments ago Orochimaru had been having drunken flashes of questions like what it would be like to kiss Jiraiya. Orochimaru, and all his genius, didn't matter one jot to Jiraiya. Orochimaru finally turned away, and crossed his arms. He didn't want to matter to a loser like Kono--Jiraiya, anyway.
He wasn't too proud not to read what Jiraiya had written, however, when the boy left in stormy silence.
1. I don't like anything about Orochimaru
2. I'm always his enemy
3. I'm stupider than he is
4. I take away his valuable time from you, Sensei
5. I just want to shake him and hurt him until he understands that I don't want things to be this way
6. But he never understands
7. He doesn't want friends
8. He wants slaves and lackeys, and would drown a puppy if that could teach him a new jitsu
9. I just wanted to be his friend. But I'm too stupid for him, I guess
10. Doesn't matter. I don't like him. You don't need to bother with this crappy "get to know him better" detention. It won't work on either of us.
Orochimaru snaps the book shut angrily, and throws it against the door. He's mainly angry at himself. The stupid memories still make him feel guilty after so many years. He is the king of serpents! He shouldn't give a damn about what Jiraiya thought when he was thirteen. It sure didn't last! They were talking and yelling, and palling around like old times in three days. And it angers him that he still feels guilty and he doesn't know what he did!
He breathes out. His temper has hardly been assuaged. But he's good at suppressing all the hate that coils inside him. It's useful for when he needs to summon the snakes. He picks up the book again. The tattered binding is stroked like an old friend. His tongue slips out of his lips and tastes the air filled with memories. He smirks. They were friends again in three days. Jiraiya was always so easy to fool. So ready to plunge the daggers into his own heart. His special brand of stupidity will always thwart him, even after he has become a shinobi with a legend to rival Orochimaru's.
The last week is still persevered within this simple exercise book. His long pale fingers memorize the aged smoothness of the cardboard cover rather than opening and reading again. He doesn't have to. He can remember Jiraiya's letter, stapled in there by sensei. He has forgotten what he wrote in return. Jiraiya probably threw it away long ago. They had to write a letter to each other, explaining what they wanted from each other. Jiraiya's letter wasn't very cohesive, but Orochimaru could read it from memory.
I want us to be friends. I need to be able to trust you. You nearly get me killed almost every mission, even the ones that have nothing to do with the war. Maybe I'm not taking the hint. But I'm not just gonna roll over and die for you. Won't make it that easy for you, you stupid gay ninja genius. 'Cause you are an idiot, even if you don't know it. You're not alone in the world. Just reach a bit and we'll catch your hand. And then Tsunade will throw you into a brick wall, but hey, that's what friends are for. So, can we be friends? Once you start opening yourself up you'll realize that other people are worth something, damnit.
P.S. There's a reason there's a warning on that snake summoning contract we found on Thrusday's mission. Don't sign it just because Sarutobi-sensei allowed you to study it, you stupid fool.
Oh, he never listened to Jiraiya, did he? Orochimaru chuckles as he tucks the book up a sleeve normally reserved for kunai.
In an old storage room in the Konoha Academy's basement is a binder filled with scraps of paper. Most are thoughtless (and occasionally topless) doodles of women who are long dead, their brains blown apart by exploding notes, their pretty breasts pierced by kunai. Those long legs were cut up by a Sand nin, and those slim wrists were sliced open after her son died. They were just young kunochi back then, though. There are bad poems in this folder. Descriptive ramblings, and homework assignments that typically received a four out of ten are also stashed in the pretty red binder. All are written in uncompromising ball point, or even humble graphite. The only entry in graceful brush strokes isn't from the student to whom the rest of this belongs. It's short. A plea which has been long forgotten by the person who wrote it. The person who received it desperately tries to forget it, and reminds himself of green rooms and screaming children dying as their bodies mutate if he ever remembers the plea. Orochimaru always was a fucking liar, anyway.
Dear Jiraiya,
I don't hate you. I promise. Please don't hate me.
And stop calling me gay! It annoys me to no end.

Scientific name: Quassia bidwillii
Common name: Quassia
Quassia bidwillii was originally thought to occur from Cape York Peninsula, Queensland, to north-east NSW. Hewson (1985) stated that Q. bidwillii required revision as it possibly included two or three species. Floyd (1979) noted that the plants recorded as Q. bidwillii in NSW appeared to be different from those in Queensland, having less conspicuous venation, floral clusters growing from the stem, slender flower stalks and larger smooth fruits. It has since been confirmed that the Moonee Quassia (Quassia sp. Moonee Creek (J.King s.n. 1949) NSW Herbarium) of north-east NSW, and Quassia sp. Kennedy River (Clarkson 5645), of Cape York, had been confused with Q. bidwillii (NSW DEC 2005f).
Quassia is a small shrub or tree that grows to about 6 m in height, with red flowers and red fruit occuring from November to March. Branchlets are ribbed, with fine, pale-brown hairs. Its leaves are 4.59 cm long, 612 mm wide, glabrous (hairless) or sometimes silky to pubescent only on the lower surface, with secondary veins numerous and regularly arranged. Leaves are stiff and leathery, narrow-elliptic or lanceolate, blunt or bluntly pointed, the margins bent under. They are green, glossy and hairless above, and sparsely hairy below. Quassia flowers occur in clusters of 14, and each flower has 810 stamens, with filaments densely villous (covered in small hairs) on the outer surface, the sepals are 0.75 to 1 mm long and the red petals are approximately 2.5 mm in length. The fruit are ovid-ellipsoid, 1 cm long, hairy and sometimes appear winged (George 1985; Harden 2000; Williams et al. 1984).
Quassia is endemic to Queensland and is currently known to occur in several localities between Scawfell Island, near Mackay, and Goomboorian, north of Gympie (QDNR 2001). Quassia has been confirmed as occurring in at least 40 sites (QDNR 2001). Included within this range are a number of populations along the Mary River; Tinana Creek, Tallegalla Weir, Teddington Weir pondage, and from Teddington Weir to Tiana Barrage (Belleng Pty Ltd 2004).
Two moderately sized, yet significant, populations of Quassia have been found near Doolong Road South, Hervey Bay. These populations occur in an area of closed swamp box-eucalypt woodland, the centre of which is bisected by an electrical service which fragments these Quassia populations. Another location of Quassia in the Hervey Bay local government area lies on the riverbank at Dunathu (approximately 20 km south-west of the Doolong Road South locality) (Belleng Pty Ltd 2004).
Quassia occurs within the Burnett Mary, Fitzroy, Mackay Whitsunday, and Burdekin (Queensland) Natural Resource Management Regions (TSSC 2008q).
Quassia has been recorded from the following sites (QDNR 2001):
- State Forest 627
- State Forest 832
- State Forest 865
- State Forest 915
- State Forest 957
- State Forest 990
- Timber reserve 170
- South Cumberland Islands National Park.
There are additional unverified records from (QDNR 2001):
- State Forest 944
- State Forest 960
- State Forest 1004
- Eurimbula National Park.
The species has been cultivated at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne (CHABG 1994).
There is no population data available for Quassia.
Of the 40 sites on which Quassia occurs (where the species is confirmed), nine are within state forest, one within a military reserve, and one within a protected area (Stanley & Ross 1983; R. Melzer 1995, pers. comm., cited in QDNR 2001). The remaining sites are on freehold land or roadsides (Queensland Herbarium 2000).
Quassia commonly occurs in lowland rainforest or on rainforest margins (Hewson 1985), but it can also be found in other forest types, such as open forest and woodland (QDNR 2001). Quassia is commonly found in areas adjacent to both temporary and permanent watercourses (Belleng Pty Ltd 2004) in locations up to 510 m altitude. The species occurs on lithosols, skeletal soils, loam soils, sands, silts and sands with clay subsoils (Stanley & Ross 1983).
Commonly associated tree species include (QDNR 2001):
- Spotted Gum (Corymbia citriodora)
- Grey Gum (Eucalyptus propinqua)
- White Mahogany (E. acmenoides)
- Forest Red Gum (E. tereticornis)
- Pink Bloodwood (E. intermedia)
- an ironbark (E. siderophloia)
- Gum Topped Box (E. moluccana)
- Gympie Messmate (E. cloeziana)
- Broad Leaved Ironbark (E. fibrosa).
At Doolong Road South the populations have an understorey dominated by (Belleng Pty Ltd 2004):
- Hockor Wattle (Acacia dispparima)
- Red Ash (Alphitonia excelsa)
- Chian Fruit (Alyxi rusciolia)
- Brush Box (Lophostemon confertus)
- Canary Beech (Polyalthia nitidissima)
- Banana Bush (Tabernaemontana pandacaqui).
At Doolong Road South the populations have a ground layer dominated by (Belleng Pty Ltd 2004):
- Native Wandering Jew (Commelina diffusa)
- Barbed-wire Grass (Cymbopogon refractus)
- Common Couch (Cynodon dactylon)
- Flax Lily (Dianella caerulea var. assera)
- Saw Sedge (Gahnia aspersa)
- Blady Grass (Imperata cylindrica)
- White Root (Lobelia purpurascens)
- Creeping Beard Grass (Oplismenus aemulus)
- Pastel Flower (Pseuderanthemum variabile).
The distribution of this species overlaps with the following EPBC Act-listed threatened ecological communities (TSSC 2008q):
- Semi-evergreen vine thickets of the Brigalow Belt (North and South) and Nandewar Bioregions
- Brigalow (Acacia harpophylla dominant and co-dominant).
Quassia flowers have been recorded in November, December, January and March (QDNR 2000b; Stanley & Ross 1983). Fruit has been recorded from February to April (QDNR 2000b).
The main identified threats to Quassia are soil erosion and habitat clearing as a result of a range of activities including agriculture, forestry, urban development and recreational activities (TSSC 2008q).
The main potential threat to Quassia is inappropriate fire regimes. The response of this species to fire is unknown. However, the spread of Lantana (Lantana camara) and exotic grasses, including Guinea Grass (Panicum maximum) and Rhodes Grass (Chloris gayana), may threaten Quassia. The establishment of these weed species is likely to be enhanced after fire (QDNR 2001; Smyrell 2007).
One site in the Burton Range, north of Moranbah is subject to erosion and degradation due to the proximity of a four wheel drive track leading to a radio tower building area. At this site, weeds introduced by vehicles may be a possible threat (R.J. Fensham 1995, pers. comm., cited in QDNR 2001).
The Commonwealth Conservation Advice on Quassia bidwillii (Quassia) (TSSC 2008q) outlines the following research priorities:
- More precisely assess population size, distribution, ecological requirements and the relative impacts of threatening processes.
- Undertake survey work in suitable habitat and potential habitat to locate any additional populations/occurrences/remnants.
In addition, the Commonwealth Conservation Advice on Quassia bidwillii (Quassia) (TSSC 2008q) outlines the following priority actions:
- Identify sites of high conservation priority.
- Where Quassia occurs establish a protective buffer that excludes timber harvesting and clearing (QDNR 2001a).
- Ensure road widening, maintenance, development, recreational and agricultural activities (or other activities involving substrate and vegetation disturbance) in areas where Quassia occurs do not adversely impact on known populations.
- Investigate formal conservation arrangements, such as covenants or inclusion in reserve tenure.
- Develop and implement a management plan for the control of weeds that links with the fire management strategy.
- Ensure chemical or other mechanisms used to eradicate weeds do not have a significant adverse impact on Quassia.
- Develop and implement a suitable fire management strategy for Quassia that links with the weed management plan.
- Prevent fire on sites for Quassia where Lantana invasion is a threat. On other sites, until an appropriate fire regime is determined, maintain current fire management practices (QDNR 2001).
- Provide maps of known occurrences to local and state Rural Fire Services and seek inclusion of mitigative measures in bush fire risk management plans, risk register and/or operation maps.
- Raise awareness of Quassia within the local community, including landowners.
- Undertake appropriate seed collection and storage.
- Investigate options for linking, enhancing or establishing additional populations.
- Implement national translocation protocols (Vallee et al. 2004) if establishing additional populations is considered necessary and feasible.
- Monitor sites to identify key threats or progress of recovery.
- Control access routes to suitably constrain public access to known sites on public land.
- Undertake appropriate weed management at known sites.
- Protect known sites from unintentional fires.
The following protective measures for this species were recommended by Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service Forest Management during operations conducted under Queensland's Forestry Act 1959. They are reproduced from the Species Management Manual (QDNR 2001):
- Where Quassia occurs establish a protective buffer that excludes timber harvesting and clearing. Minimum area to be 2500 m² (0.25 ha) with all Quassia at least 25 m inside the buffer boundary.
- Control or eradicate weeds on sites where Quassia occurs.
- No fire on sites for Quassia where Lantana invasion is a threat. On other sites, until an appropriate fire regime is determined, maintain current fire management practices.
The Commonwealth Conservation Advice on Quassia bidwillii (Quassia) (TSSC 2008q) provides a brief biological overview and management recommendations. In addition, the Species Management Manual (QDNR 2001) and the Weeds of National Significance: Lantana (Lantana camara) Strategic Plan (ARMCANZ 2001a) are available.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I always ready your articles but i never comment purely because I just enjoy to read everyone else comments and watch thoughts i might have had get downrated haha. But i thought i should comment today if only to say good luck and god bless. I have always grappled with how i balance a life of wow with my very active marathon training and backpacking/exploring around the desert i live in. But this helped me understand that I dont play wow to escape, i do it to reflect. In fact thats the reason i play all video games, read books, day dream, watch movies, etc.
Also I would have never been able to imagine a loss like this untill a good friend of mine died in a car wreck last year. Its gut wrenching and unfair, and unimaginable. I still can't compare my feelings to yourse. But take consul in the facts that she is not in pain any longer and that the whole time her son was right there with her and never left her side. In the end that is all that matters.
Good luck brother

West Valley City • In the end, you have to admire Craig Drury and the Provo boys' basketball program.
Monday morning's 42-39 Class 4A first round victory over Highland wasn't pretty. But when Riley Tucker missed a potential tying three at the buzzer, it proved to be enough for Drury's crew to advance to Wednesday's quarterfinal at Maverik Center.
"It wasn't pretty, but we will certainly take it," Drury said. "We took a while to get started. It was your typical morning state tournament game."
Provo surrendered 19 points in the first quarter, trailed by as much as 14-5 and lacked the precision at the outset typical of Bulldog teams.
But defensive stops, timely 3-pointers and a rebounding advantage proved to be the ultimate difference, as Provo survived a two-point third period and 14 turnovers.
Adam Finch scored 13 points and grabbed four rebounds to lead the Bulldogs. Dallin Bosco scored 10 points and Wesley Bosco came up big with four assists and four rebounds. That was enough to offset Liam Thomas, the Highland star, who led all scorers with 17 points.
The Rams, the defending state champions, end their season at 13-9.

Bulldogs move on to quarterfinals
• Highland misses a three-pointer at the buzzer
• Provo advances to Wednesday's quarterfinal
• The Bulldogs win the rebounding battle 30-20

If you're guild is going to PUG some people in for raids make sure that the leadership has discussed a PUG loot policy beforehand.
Most PUGs won't come along these days if they don't have an "equal" shot at the loot. They don't care that you have 23 other people that have been showing up daily and putting in the work to clear the instance. They don't care about your guild's loot system or who has what points or priority. If you tell them that their free to roll on loot that would have gone to off-specs or that no main spec wants/needs they'll tell you to go f%@&k off.
Unfortunately letting PUGs roll for loot can cause bad-blood with your regular raiders especially if something is a big upgrade for one of your guildies and it ends up taken by a PUG. I've heard of a lot of drama coming from this situation, and Officers getting nasty tells from raiders over this situation. Sometimes core raiders will even /gquit over the perceived slight leaving the guild in a worse position then before the raid began.
So, just make sure that everyone is clear on the loot rules in regards to PUGs just in case you're faced with a situation of PUGing people in or not raiding.

Mopar unveiled today the first details on the new Muscle Monster Truck, which is loosely based on the 2014 Ram Heavy Duty truck. The model is the result of a recent collaboration between Ram and Hall Brothers Racing, and it will see use in numerous Monster Jam competitions, starting with the one on January 11th in Detroit.
The new Mopar Muscle Monster Truck is the first original equipment manufacturer (OEM) monster truck to be introduced in the Monster Jam series in more than a decade. The model is based on a highly modified Ram Heavy Duty truck that is 10-feet high and weighs 10,300 pounds.
Under the hood the new monster truck gets a 565-cubic-inch, supercharged version of the iconic Gen II 426 HEMI engine that delivers a total of 2,000 horsepower — an increase of almost 1,600 horsepower over the most powerful Ram Heavy Duty version.

Hi Wujing! I don't really have anything to ask, but I just wanna thank you for your talk at TED. I'm a guy from Indonesia and I'm embarrassingly very shy at my mid-20. Your talk was really inspiring for me. Thank you for taking the chance to stood up at TED. I believe it will inspire many many other shy persons out there.
