"Narration ruined this audible book for me!!!"
I thought I would based upon reading the book first, but after listening to the narration by Adam Paul I doubt I will ever listen to this again! I kept thinking he was trying to channel Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry voice and it was grating on my nerves the more I listened so I found it hard to enjoy the story itself!
Maren, because she adapts to situations quickly while retaining her own sense of integrity.
As I stated in the earlier question...his voice for Steele was so irritating that it ruined for me a book that I was really looking forward to on audio!
In the hospital after the crash....when they finally get to see their child.
Please go back to original narrator used for this series....it is really amazing how much a narrator can change the enjoyment of a book just be trying to be the wrong voice for a character!!! I love Maya's books as a whole....and enjoy listening to them as well as reading them! I've listened to some of them multiple times....but this won't be one that I will be doing that with unfortunately!
"I love this series"
That said, there is some offensive language, and a bit of over working the sentimental jargon. I some times wonder if authors are paid by the word. Anyway, thankfully she has several other characters that she has to work with in the Kelly Group.
I really liked this book but it was not my favorite of the series. I did not like how things evolved with Maren. It seemed rushed and Steele just changed his personality too fast. Iceman to caring talking man. I just wish Ms Banks had made the change take a more natural course. As always I love Adam Paul who does a great job.
Will do anything for books!
"Love Steele & Marin"
This is a great couple, a great story, huge suspense, huge love story, so much drama!
Avid reader and listener!! Love books! I am usually reading one genre of books and listening to another genre. Best of both!
"Just gets better and better!!"
Just when I think this series can't keep up the momentum and get better, it does!!
Wonderful story of Steele and Maren in the fast paced, plot turning KGI series Maya Banks is known for. Steele must finally face his past and why he is the "man of steel". The characters are brought to life in this book and I just had to keep listening 5 more minutes. And, did I forget to say HOT! HOT! HOT! Well, can't leave that out or would not be a MB novel!
It is it's own story, they are all good and individualized with Maya's creative imagination and story telling!
The narration was the down part of the book. While I am adjusting to a new narrator in the series and finally getting used to Adam Paul's voice, he did a "gravely" persona of Steele, which I felt made Steele sound like an old man instead of "tough".
"We need MORE...PLEASE!"
I have enjoyed this entire series and wish I weren't caught up on the last one. Maya Banks is fast becoming my favorite author of all times. And Adam Paul...what can I say! Never disappointed in his talent. I especially love the KGI novels. Never a dull moment and the narrator brings such life to each character.
Once again...it gets an absolute *~*FIVE*!~* from me!!!
Make no mistake between my personality and my attitude. My personality is who I am, my attitude depends on who you are.........
"Love Love Love me some KGI....."
Boy this is one family/group that I can't get enough of!! Books are too far apart
Narrator is fabulous and I love the bantering between the team..............
"The Saga of Love and Justice continues"
At first I was bummed with the change of narrator in this series but I love the gruff voice Paul uses for Steele. Banks does a great job of introducing characters she explores in future books. We got to know Steele a bit in the PJ/Cole saga of Shades of Gray Book 6 and Dr. Maren popped up in previous books as well as the KGI physician.
Steele is nicknamed "ice man" so no wonder the surprise of his love interest in Dr. Maren. If you've enjoyed the other books in the KGI series, you will definitely enjoy this one. Maren is tough in her own right. Steele falls for her hard and fast and the adventure takes off right away. It's also nice to hear about happenings of other characters from previous books. Worth the credit if you're into sexy mercenary men, action and love.

Dear Tom Raper RVs,
Our experience with Tom Raper has been great. We purchased our first used 1984 pop-up campers from Tom Raper in 1990 and used it until 2006. We traveled all over the country with it, as our children grew up.
We literally wore the springs off of it then purchased a 2280 in 2006 and had several trips west.
We now are upgrading to a Roo. Two sons have purchased Rockwood pop-ups from Tom Raper. We camped together in Colorado this summer.
Tom Raper RVs has given great service to all of us.

David Denny JR from Richmond, KY
Just wanted to take an opportunity to say thanks again. As of now my whole experience from the start has been just GREAT. I'm sorry I didn't get to see you before I left yesterday but I was in a hurry. After I got home I realized a few more minutes wouldn't have hurt. I got home at the edge of dark and got settled in just in time. I really appreciate your patience and willingness to give me time to make my decisions and walk me thru all the great options you guys had for me such as pricing, ice maker, iPad ,financing and your friendly staff along with Pete . The guys in the back the service department are top notch . Everyone of them. I had the opportunity to speak with most of them. Everyone I was in contact with was very friendly but more importantly professional. I will be sure to pass you along as a reference to anyone and everyone in need of campers. Thanks so much. We love the crusader but even more we love all the great deals that came with it. I hope today and always God blesses you with many many blessings to come . Thanks again Sherman I personally have been blessed just to get to know you . Best of luck in all you do.
Carolos Bowyer from Dayton, OH
Praise the Lord. I am giving all the praise and glory, to the Lord Jesus Christ for providing mini Junior "A" (Axis Class A motorhome from Thor)... Thanks for making "Junior" possible! ...There is simply no other way to explain how everything worked out. The bottom line, both my wife and I are 100% satisfied, because the good Lord provided it. Thank you ever so much!
James J. Jackson from Taylor Mills, Kentucky
To Tom Raper Company,
I am a new customer of Tom Raper out of Richmond, IN. I was reluctant at first in purchasing a camper. Spending weekends in a confined area with my crazy family did not seem fun to me. However, through the persuasive ways of my wife, I decided to buy a travel trailer through you all.
Mark Casebold is the sales rep who went out of his way to help me and my family become campers. Mark was fun and energetic. He was able to solve any fears I had of campers.
Charlie from service was most helpful. This kind gentlemen took his time to explain EVERYTHING I needed to know about my camper. Charlie is the guru of campers!
There was also one other man I want to thank but can't remember his name. He was from Service and installed the brake controller on my truck. I enjoyed talking to him about coon huntin' and his daughter. Again, this person went over and beyond to answer all questions I had about hauling a camper.
Thank you for all your help!
The Jackson family is fully enjoying their 19ft. camper. Looking forward to doing business in the future.
Larry & Saundra Hirschfeld from N/A
Ed, (Tom Raper RVs General Manager)
We just want to thank you for all you did to see that our problems were resolved on our motorhome.
Mike Brookbank got in touch with us and had us bring it in to see what
had to be done. It seems that everything is now in working order
although we haven't been able to use it yet. We have a weekend trip planned in a couple of weeks.
This is our first motorhome as we have had travel trailers and a fifth wheel previously, so there
were some things we really weren't trained on when we bought it. Hopefully things will go
much more smoothly now and I'm sure we will continue to learn more
about it as we go along on our travels.
Again, thanks for your help!
Larry & Saundra Hirschfeld
Riggin Reins from Lebanon, IN
Wow!!! I like the redesign of tomraper.com! The new features are user friendly, and the amount of information and pictures provided for each motorhome is outstanding! I can keep up to date now with the newest styles and accessories in the motorhome world with ease... Thanks!

Seattle College Shooter Was Subdued by Student Desk Monitor With Pepper Spray
The shooting that left a 19-year-old man dead at Seattle Pacific University yesterday was stopped by a student building monitor stationed at a desk in the hall where the incident took place, news outlets are reporting. From the Seattle Times:
Jon Meis, a student working as a building monitor, pepper-sprayed the shooter as he stopped to reload, then put him in a chokehold and took him to the ground, according to police and a friend who spoke with Meis after the shooting. Then other students and faculty members rushed to hold the shooter down until police arrived.
Meis, 22 years old, is a senior engineering major at the Christian school. (A friend of his said "Meis typically carries pepper spray with him because he likes to be prepared wherever he goes," the Times wrote.) The suspected shooter is Aaron Ybarra, a 26-year-old who had no immediately known connection to Seattle Pacific.

Screening Europe & Protein Crystallography among scheduled conference streams at ELA 2011
Select Biosciences, organisers of European Lab Automation (ELA) 2011, are delighted to announce that Screening Europe and Advances in Protein Crystallography will be among the streams of this highly topical conference & exhibition. The inaugural event will take place 30 June - 1 July in the historic city of Hamburg, Germany and will bring together ten distinct conference tracks with 20 expert speakers per track. Each will address a specific application area but with a core focus on automated techniques and equipment, and associated informatics.
Screening Europe will explore the very latest key topics relating to lab automation in screening, including HCS, chemical probes, fragment-based drug discovery, label-free assays and compound management. With attendance of both novice users and experts alike, the conference will cover the most relevant and challenging issues of lab automated technologies. Among the keynote speakers are: Anthony Davies, Trinity College Dublin; Steve Rees, GlaxoSmithKline and Lorenz Mayr, Novartis.
The 'Advances in Protein Crystallography' stream will highlight many of the emerging technologies within crystallography and examine how they have been applied through speakers who are leaders in their fields. Keynote speakers will include, Professor Naomi Chayen, Imperial College London presenting 'Smart Materials for Protein Crystallisation' and Professor Roderick Hubbard, University of York, discussing 'Current Perspectives in Fragment-Based Ligand Discovery'. Further presentations will explore areas such as protein chemistry and crystallization, new laboratory instrumentation and techniques, advances in diffraction techniques and crystallographic computing, and fragment-based lead discovery.
Undertaking complex research whilst keeping up to speed with the latest equipment and developments for R&D in biotech and drug discovery can prove time consuming. At ELA, opportunities to attend workshops and forums for scientific discussion will give attendees a ready insight into major new advances in lab automation and an understanding of how applications of these new strategies and technologies can improve overall effectiveness of their research.
Training courses will also be taking place throughout the duration of the event, please see details below:
Protein Crystallography
Tackling the Bottleneck of Protein Crystallization: Practical Techniques with a Difference - 14:00-17:30, 29 June 2011
Data analysis and bioinformatics in High Content Screening - 13:30-17:00, 29 June 2011

Was spoilt for me by too many adverts and a presenter whose sycophantic manner grated on my nerves. About 30 minuets of interesting program padded to 2hrs. Anyone else find it that bad?

"Regarding animals as heroes is like calling cats cruel or sharks merciless."
Precisely - animals don't have any understanding of consequences, so they're not capable of being heroic. Human beings can foresee consequences and yet overcome their basic instinct for self-preservation and deliberately put themselves in danger to help others. Animals might appear to do the same thing, but it's an illusion.

If animals appear to do the same thing, Films not included, then why does a dog stay by his master's grave and pine? I think you have a low esteem to animals' intelligence FE.

"why does a dog stay by his master's grave and pine? "
For the same reason wolves howl and pine when the leader dies.
They are pack animals acknowledging an alpha pack leader, in a dog's case the human.

morddwyd , correct as usual. Why do they do it even if the master is human? A different species? That's not ingrained in their DNA suerly?
Instinct after thousands of years? Possibly. Intelligence? Nah. We humans only have that gift... of some sorts.

It certainly is not intelligence.
A dog bonding to its human owner is just like a duck chick being brought up by a chicken or extra lambs or piglets being fostered by other mothers.
A dog returning to its owners grave is showing a lack of intelligence because it doesn't have the sense to know the owner won't be there.

Hit On By a Cop
by Slacker And Steve
posted Aug 8 2013 6:22PM
The other day Slacker's wife went to the grocery store. She walked out and saw a cop car sitting in front of the grocery store not thinking anything of it. She put her groceries in her Audi and backed out. As she started to drive away the cop's siren went off, so she pulled over. The cop walked up to the car and told her that he always liked that car and asked her if he could look at it. Afterwards he followed up by asking…are you single?
Slacker thinks that although the cop was polite, it's as though they're using their authority for other purposes, and that's just so wrong!
When Slacker and Steve asked other people in the Alice 105.9 office if this happened to them, they were surprised by how common cops do this.
Have you ever been hit on or asked out by a cop?
With Love,
Intern Elana

Ugandan voters wait in line at a polling station in the capital Kampala. Some 14 million voters started voting on Friday. (Roberto Schmidt/AFP) Millions of Ugandans have come out to vote in the east African nation's presidential ballot pitting the country's long-serving president Yoweri Museveni against his former ally and personal physician, Kizza Besigye. Voters in Uganda faced the choice Friday of extending their president's 25-year grip on power or joining the anti-incumbent wave sweeping Africa and the Middle East and voting Museveni out of office.

Chrystie Corns, Sister of Ashley Hebert, Sorry For Bachelorette Debacle, Extreme Couponing Pastby Free Britney at . Comments
Okay, Chrystie Corns didn't apologize for being on TLC's Extreme Couponing. There's nothing to apologize for - do you realize how much money you can save?!
Ashley Hebert's sister, who was seriously profiled on that show in its first season, is better known for her performance on The Bachelorette season finale.
More than 9 million viewers tuned in to see Ashley Hebert get engaged to J.P. Rosenbaum, and most of them were thrilled. Chrystie Corns? Not so much.
"I made a big mistake," Corns says of hastily judging Rosenbaum and curtly telling both of them to their faces that they simply weren't a good match.
Not only did she prefer Ashley Hebert and runner-up Ben Flajnik together, she even said that Brad Womack and Ashley had better chemistry. Ouch.
She has since done a 180, however: "As I started watching the season, however, it's very clear to me that J.P. was the one. He was the best choice.""What I didn't take into consideration at that point was that Ashley had just been on this eight-week journey and she was really tired," says Corns.
Corns has since apologized to Ashley and J.P., whom she now refers to as her sister's "knight in shining armor" for being such a rock all season.
J.P. is looking for a little payback, however.
"I'm totally apologetic, I feel like a jerk – I want to make it up to him but he won't let me forget it," Corns says, laughing. "J.P. says if he has anything to do with it I'm going to have to fight for the right to be maid of honor."
Ashley and J.P.: Will it last?
Ashley is way more pretty and Classy then her Sister !
Ashley left me cold, but her sister is ravishing -- or would be if she got rid of the tattoos. Intelligent, soulful, self-possessed, perceptive, assertive! -- Chrystie should have been the Bachlorette! This woman has character! It's nice to see that Chrystie is also conciliatory, but I think her initial assessment of the Ashley - J.P. relationship was correct. Time will tell.

My Fiance and I eat out regularly. Applebee's is one of our common stops. I would reccomend this one.

I went in recently to get work done on my 2001 Nissan Altima. I am an intelligent guy, but not an expert when it comes to cars and engines. I started to get some oil drops on my driveway and thought it would be a good idea to get it checked out here. I was concerned that they did not have a website but I thought I would go check out the place anyways. Chrys Zouras introduced himself as the Co-owner of Midlands Motorworks and seemed pretty polite initially.
He showed me the shop and some of the cars they were working on and quoted me a price to fix the damages. Initially he said it would be a quick job might not even to get the engine replaced just some minor work. I agreed to the estimate amount of $570 and they started working. A week later, I still did not have the car, although this was supposed to take "just two days" according to Chrys. I come and see my car parked in the same spot I parked it when I showed up the week before, these guys did not even touch my car in over a week. [continued below]....
I immediately made my way down there and met with Chrys. He apologized for the time taken to inspect the vehicle but stated that the motor suffered too much damage internally and needed to be replaced. This is when I started to become worried, I often heard of stories that mechanics initially offer great prices but then when they have your car in their possession, drive up the prices and "damages". However, against my better judgement I agreed to the repairs that were estimated at $3100 at this point.
One month goes by and I still do not recieve my car back. I start to call Chrys and he says that the car is being worked on and he would give me a call as soon as it was finished. I explained to him that I needed the car back and I was using a rent-a-car in the meantime. Thats the last conversation I had with Chrys Zouras for about 3 weeks. Midlands Motorworks refused to asnwer my calls or emails and even deleted my face book posts for the entire 3 weeks. I even drove by the shop and did not even see my car at the shop. I was worried that I got scammed and thought the worst. Finally Chrys calls me after I threaten legal action and acts as if nothing has happened and says "Your car is ready". I ask him why they have been avoiding my calls and he responds they were busy and apologized.
At this point I just wanted my car back, 2 months removed from me intiially dropping my car off at Midlands Motorworks. I drive off and my car literally starts spewing coolant from the hood. I drive back to Midlands and they say they need to take another look at it. At this point, I caught on to their game of holding cars and extracting money for no repairs. I asked to take a look at my old parts and old engine and he made up some story that he already got rid of it and forgot to save it so I can take a look at the damages my old engine needed repaired. The entire experience was just a continious stream of lies, fees, and frustration.
I highly recommend you chose somebody else to work on your car Chrys Zouras is the prototypical scam artist in the automotive industry; overcharges, overpromises, and never never delivers.

Afghan leader says to raise spy attack with Pakistan
KABUL (Reuters) - Afghan President Hamid Karzai said on Saturday a suicide bombing that wounded his intelligence chief was planned in the Pakistani city of Quetta and that the issue would be raised with Islamabad.
Karzai stopped short of directly blaming neighbouring Pakistan, a regional power seen as critical to U.S. efforts to stabilise Afghanistan before NATO combat troops leave by the end of 2014.
On Thursday, a suicide bomber posing as a peace messenger wounded Afghanistan's intelligence chief, Asadullah Khalid, dealing a blow to a nascent reconciliation process. The bomb was hidden in the attacker's underwear, said Karzai.
"Of course we will be seeking clarification from Pakistan because we know this man who came in the name of a guest to meet Asadullah Khalid came from Pakistan. We know that for a fact," said Karzai.
"We will be firmly and clearly seeking clarification and asking for any information that they may have."
Pakistan's government said it would assist in any investigation, but urged Karzai to provide evidence before making such statements.
"Before levelling charges, the Afghan government would do well if they shared information or evidence with the government of Pakistan that they might have with regard to the cowardly attack on (Khalid)," said a spokesman for Pakistan's foreign ministry.
"They would also do well by ordering an investigation into any lapses in the security arrangements around (Khalid)."
The Afghan Taliban claimed responsibility for the operation, although it often makes exaggerated claims about attacks on foreign troops or government targets.
Karzai said the militant Islamist group was not behind the attack in the heart of the capital, Kabul.
"Apparently the Taliban claimed responsibility like many other attacks but such a complicated attack and a bomb hidden inside his body, this is not Taliban work," Karzai said.
"It's a completely professional (job) ... Taliban cannot do that and there are bigger and professional hands involved in it."
Karzai said the issue would be discussed next week with Pakistani officials during a meeting between the foreign ministers of Afghanistan, Pakistan and Turkey in Ankara.
"This is a very important issue for us and we hope that the Pakistan government in this regard gives us accurate information and cooperates seriously, so the doubts we have end," he said.
Karzai said contacts with Pakistan would continue.
Ties between Kabul and Islamabad have been strained by cross-border raids by militant groups and accusations that Pakistan's intelligence agency backs Afghan insurgent groups to advance its interests in the country.
Pakistan denies the accusations and says it is committed to helping bring peace to Afghanistan.
The leadership of the Afghan Taliban fled to Quetta after their government was toppled by NATO-backed Afghan forces in the wake of the September 11, 2001, attacks on the United States.
Pakistan denies Taliban leaders live in Quetta.
The attack on Khalid was almost a carbon copy of last year's assassination of Afghanistan's chief peace negotiator, Burhanuddin Rabbani.
He died at his Kabul home when an insurgent posing as a peace envoy detonated explosives concealed in a turban.
Pakistan recently sent strong signals it would put its weight behind the Afghan government's efforts to draw the Taliban into negotiations after more than a decade of war.
In November, Pakistan released 13 mid-level Afghan Taliban officials it had detained, meeting demands by Kabul, which has repeatedly pushed for access to prominent insurgents.
Then officials from both countries said Pakistan would consider freeing former Afghan Taliban second-in-command Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar if lower-ranking figures who were released advance the peace process.
Afghan officials believe he may command enough respect to persuade the Taliban to engage in formal talks with the Kabul government.
"Pakistan must prove by releasing these senior Taliban leaders that Pakistan is interested in a real and genuine peace process," said Karzai. "So that release is very much demanded and I would like to repeat it again today."

Battlefield 3. Yup, if you wanna play with Augusto (you do, he's a cool dude!) then he'll need his own copy and play with you from the confines of his own apartment. The good news is that you won't have to smell each other's unwashed bodies as you play for 13 hours straight.
Speaking to GamingLives, DICE's Karl Magnus Troedsson confirmed the bad news, stating that there would be no split-screen co-op support whatsoever in the game -- not even for the new co-op campaign. Troedsson also said Battlefield 3 would ship with six maps for the co-op campaign, as opposed to the rumored ten maps. "Naturally, you will recognize some of the elements," Troedsson said in regards to the co-op campaign, "but they are built specifically for the co-op with all the scripting, events and everything."
For the full audio interview, hit up the source link below. When you're done, call Augusto. He's gonna need somebody to break the news to him all gentle-like.
