Georgina Kincaid is a shape-shifting succubus who works at Emerald City Books & Café. She owes her job to Seth, a man she madly aches for, but being a succubus, it is not easy falling in love, especially when she can involuntarily kill. No matter how strong her desire is for Seth, she does not wish for any harm to come his way, so keeps her distance.
Seth Mortensen makes his writing headquarters at the book store. He enjoys being at the café where he can spend time with Georgina while he tries to finish the great novel. When she approaches him about a disturbing dream, he recommends she visit Dante, who reads dreams.
Georgina fears three people enormously: Lilith the Succubus Queen, who has tremendous power and beauty; Roman the nephilim; and Niphon, an imp, who bought her. Someone she fears is out to get her. At least she can talk to good friend, Hugh, another imp. Meanwhile, she continues to have a vision about a little girl. After confiding to Seth, he suggests she go and see a man who interprets dreams. Dante not only offers help in reading the dream, but wants to get cozy with Georgina. The more time they spend trying to decipher her dream, the more Georgiana wonders whether can she take a tumble with this interpreter when Seth is a huge part of her heart.
I found Succubus Dreams filled with interesting characters and turns of events that kept me fastened to my seat. The myriad of diverse players blend together to bring another installment in the life of Georgina Kincaid. There is mystery, passion and anticipation in this extraordinary read, where I was not only touched by some of the characters but held deep compassion for some. Richelle Mead has a distinctive voice that grabs hold of the audience and hooks them automatically. I absolutely adore her work. She is talented and it shows in her stories. Ms. Mead designs characters that become a part of the reader's life and always leave me with a huge feeling of awe at the end.

Middlebury As a newborn baby, she was christened with a cumbersome name—Constance Frances Marie Ockelman; that was in the maternity ward of Brooklyn Hospital in New York City on the blustery morning of Nov. 14, 1922.
By the time Constance Frances Marie Ockelman achieved fame among Hollywood's most desired women during the 1940s, she had gone through an amazing personal transformation.
Troubled and schizophrenic, Constance Frances Marie morphed into the sexy, film noir actress Veronica Lake.
Sometimes known as the "peek-a-boo girl" for a partially hidden eye eclipsed by her long, natural blonde hair, Veronica Lake never left the childhood problems of Constance Frances Marie too far behind.
How Constance Frances Marie went from being a delicate newborn with a cumbersome name, to a silver-screen femme fatale and G.I. pinup queen, and then, at the very end of it all, to a corpse laid out in lavender in a Vermont funeral home—dead from renal failure and an hepatitis infection at the age of 50—is the crux of this story.
For ease of familiarity, we'll refer to Constance Frances Marie Ockelman as the world came to know her—as Veronica, Veronica Lake.
Veronica's sulky personality, golden tresses and cherry lips were what lured moviegoers to view her 28 movies, spanning the years 1939 to 1970. But during the opening years of the Great Depression, the actress's physical trademarks were still in the budding stage.
Long after the actress' death in Vermont, Hollywood stars Kim Basinger and Reese Witherspoon have tried to imitate Veronica's good looks and long hair. And so, in death, she continues to inspire others.
The animated adult-cartoon character Jessica Rabbit, shown in the 1988 movie "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", was a direct nod to Veronica Lake.
Even online, Veronica's sexy style lives on.
For example, hair-fashion expert Sarah Potempa—who has styled President Barak Obama's hair—has posted a do-it-yourself Internet guide to recreating the actress's classic hairdo.

Hi, I'm Lottii :) I am a most of the time sensible teenager, with 3 horses and I live in England (but I hate talking about the weather!).
Little bit bout my horses (Well ponies actually),
Chez is a 7yr old (but broken late) 13.3hh Welsh cross. She is chestnut with flaxen mane and tail but recently been whitening out a lot across her back and hindquarters, along with getting some black in her tail and chestnut in her mane!
Midge is meant to be my mum's pony, but through lack of time she only gets ridden by me once a week or so. She is 13years old 13.2hh connemara cross. She is a fairly light dun in the summer but almost black in winter. She is for sale and has recently been having problems with getting a knock in the field, going lame and never really got quite right (I might make another thread about this?)
Cassie is my old pony, my first little baby :) She is 23yrs old, 12hh white grey Welsh A :) She is semi-retired now, only getting pottered about on by my little brother when he misses a riding lesson!
I also have a terrier and some chickens.
But that's about it really :) This seems like a lovely nice forum, with friendly people for once!

MOORE — Oklahoma Southern Baptists are urging President Barack Obama to withdraw a controversial health care mandate because they assert it violates their right of religious liberty.
Oklahoma Baptists urge president to withdraw mandate
The request came in the form of a resolution approved Tuesday by Baptist delegates gathered for the denomination's 106th annual meeting at First Baptist Church of Moore, 301 NE 27.
"Religious liberty is really at the heart of our beliefs, not only our history," Brian Hobbs, spokesman for the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma, said Tuesday.
The resolution, which Hobbs said was written before the Nov. 6 presidential election, was one of nine approved at Tuesday's convention gathering. The convention is the state affiliate of the Southern Baptist Convention.
Other opposition
The state Baptists join a list of groups and organizations that have expressed vehement opposition to a U.S. Health and Human Services mandate that requires businesses, including faith-based businesses, to pay for contraception and what the groups describe as abortion-inducing drugs for their employees.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has been vocal in its opposition of the mandate. Also, Oklahoma City-based retail giant Hobby Lobby filed suit against the government in September, saying the new federal health care rule conflicts with owner David Green's Christian values.
Hobbs said Tuesday was not the first time Oklahoma Baptists have spoken out against the mandate. He said a statement by the convention's executive director-treasurer Anthony Jordan was read at a faith-based sanctity of life event in February at the state Capitol in which the Baptist leader said Oklahoma Baptists would stand with Roman Catholics in opposing the measure.

We were looking at getting the terrain but when we actually got to the dealer they didnt have a terrain that met our requirements and we looked at the Acadia. With the deal we got we paid just over what we would have for a Terrain plus or minus a few things. We are happy we went with the Acadia, the extra room is nice to have just in case. We know a few family friends that have the Acadia also and love them too. I just make fun if it since looking from the inside back to the rear it reminds me of a mini van, the wife hates it when i call it a mini van.

My wife loves hers its an 09. Had an intermitent CEL that ended up being a timing belt. They had to pull the whole engine to replace. Only other thing was a tail light lens that needed replaced due to condensation inside. Gas milage is not very impressive for a v6, and smaller vehicle. I personally do not really care for the 6 speed auto shift pattern when you put your foot in it. Newer years could be different. But then I'm used to my tahoe.
These have timing chains. They are having problems with the chains stretching. Typical problem. Other than that they seem to be ok.

We have the moon roof/ sunroof package. Would have rather had just the sun roof saftey wise. No leakage problems though.
The body style is what we liked. The Terrian is to boxy for our liking. Why mess with a good thing.

Timing chain, okay we were told belt I did not see it warranty work.
We have the moon roof/ sunroof package. Would have rather had just the sun roof saftey wise. No leakage problems though.
The body style is what we liked. The Terrian is to boxy for our liking. Why mess with a good thing.
The Terrain has you sitting on the ground, about the same height as a new Taurus. The Lambda CUVs sit higher up and the longer wheelbase makes it rides 10x better. having said that my wife and i looked at the Enclaves in late '09. they were nice but i had the feeling like if i kept the vehicle for an extended period of time do i want to deal with the unibody structure in such a large vehicle? My father purchased a new traverse last year FWD LT1. 23k miles on it and the driver's seat squeaks like crazy like an old sofa and the rack needed to be replaced along with an additional sterring column component the mechanic found during the test drive with my father to confirm the rack was no good. i also just replaced his front rotors due to warping??? a year old 23k mi? he's 64yo and drives like it lol.. $350. not impressed by them, maybe the next generation they will have solved these issues. remember this is the first time GM has gone down this road and they're working the bugs out as they go, i don't like being anyone's guinea pig. oh yeah, the cladding on the lower panels/bumpers are already fading, another cheap move by GM on all three except the acadia Denali.
i ended up getting a tahoe and then my new Yukon (personal preference change form tahoe) do to the body on frame reliability. did i sacrifice a little ride quality? yeah, some mileage as well but i felt the long term would reverse any negatives in the short such as when this truck has 150k miles on it it will still be tight can the same be said for a Lambda? i've driven an enclave with 68k miles on it and i can tell you it don't drive like the same CUV i rove new. not a good thing. Resale value on the GM full size trucks is ridiculous, even when gas prices are high, go look for yourself. even when gas was $5.00 a gallon years ago they were not giving them away new/used. I get 13.7 in my Yukon with all city mileage stop and go around here, remote start every time, etc.
if you do alot of hwy mileage then get a CUV, if you don't i think you'll get your $$$$ back and a better vehicle going with the full size.

Posted 27 March 2011 - 07:56 AM
The sunroof flooding issue is very reminiscent of problems Volkswagen had with many of their vehicles. If GM is following in VW footsteps to see how far you can cheapen the vehicles before it backfires on you, they are in for a rude awakening.

What post? So what's the issue?
That is the name of the post. Bsically its a recall if you are having a cel on the timing chain. They install new timing chain, and recalibrate the DIC, and oil life monitor to more frequent oil changes. You are not suppose to bring it in unless there is problems.
The other was a connector for one of the air bags that may corrode over time setting off the service light. Again do not bring in unless there is an issue. The item is servicable until 2013 or 120000 miles.

TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the county law and the correction law, in relation to allowing two or more counties to enter into a contract for the provision of a county jail
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: To provide that counties may share a jail instead of having separate jails in each county.
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Adds a new section 500-P to the Correction Law to provide that counties may share in the construction, maintenance, bonding, and long term financing associated with a county jail.
EFFECTS OF PRESENT LAW WHICH THIS BILL WOULD ALTER: The Commissioner of the State Commission on Correction refuses to allow counties to share the construction. maintenance and financing of jails. In fact, when approached by Sullivan County officials about the concept of developing a regional jail with one of the adjoining counties, replied: "New York has regions; they're called counties." - source: Times Herald Record, February 10, 2010.
JUSTIFICATION: The answer of a State agency Commissioner when approached about the concept of a sincere regional cost sharing concept was to dismiss it out of hand. That type of attitude shows a disregard for taxpayers. There is no reason why counties should not be able to share in the cost of the construction and maintenance and long term financing of a jail. Sharing services at the local level makes sense whenever possible. Sharing services between the State and localities makes sense whenever possible.
Taxpayers are stretched to the brink and New York State government needs to change to meet the needs of the taxpayer, rather than continuing to insist that taxpayers change to meet the needs of the State. This common sense measure will help make that change possible.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: S.6941 of 2010: Passed Senate, Referred to Correction in Assembly
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately.

A COUNTY MAY CONTRACT WITH ANOTHER COUNTY TO SHARE THE FINANCING, MAINTENANCE, AND IMPROVEMENT TO AN EXISTING JAIL OF ANOTHER COUNTY WHERE SUCH OTHER COUNTY ALREADY HAS AN EXISTING JAIL THAT MEETS THE REQUIRE- MENTS OF THE STATE COMMISSION ON CORRECTION OR WHICH HAS A WAIVER OR VARIANCE FROM ALL OR A PORTION OF SUCH REQUIREMENTS. S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.

Located in the Great Hall, this electrifying exhibit explores the good vibrations that have complemented NASCAR over the last five decades. From rock stars to country crooners to rappers, the sport has welcomed all genres of music to rally around the action on the track.
Musical roots run deep in the sport. From musicians who have used NASCAR sponsorships to promote their records to NASCAR's influence on chart-topping hits, the worlds of NASCAR and music have formed a special bond over the years. And NASCAR's biggest stars have even found their way into the music scene as performers, music video stars, or by collecting music-themed trophies and memorabilia.
The exhibit explores four primary areas of interest including "Racers Who Rock," "Rockers Who Race," "Rocking the Track" and "NASCAR in Song" and features more than 40 artifacts that truly rock including seven cars all the way from Pit Road to Music Row.
NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee Junior Johnson honed his driving skills running moonshine in the hills of North Carolina, skills that would later make him a successful NASCAR driver. This car pays homage to those days and was featured in the music video for Brantley Gilbert's song "Bottoms Up." Car courtesy of Scott Borchetta
Braid Paisley's "Old Alabama" music video featured this 1959 Chevrolet Corvette and was filmed where Hendrick Motorsports team owner Rick Hendrick houses his private car collection. Hendrick along with drive Jeff Gordon, JR Motorsports Co-owner Kelley Earnhardt Miller and 2011 NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee Darrell Waltrip were in the music video. Car courtesy of Rick Hendrick
Robbins was a country legend and a part-time race car driver from 1966 to 1982. He was also a legend at the Grand Old Opry. This car is typical of what Robbins drove at Nashville in the 1960s. Built at Robbins' farm, it was recently bought and restored to its original condition by championship crew chief Ray Evernham. Car courtesy of Ray Evernham
Mike Curb, the founder and chairman of Curb Records, has had multifaceted success as a songwriter, producer and owner. Through his sponsorship and ownership of NASCAR cars and teams, he also had a trackside view of some of the sport's biggest moments. In 1980, NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee Dale Earnhardt drove this car to his first of seven championships. Car courtesy of Mike Curb
As president and CEO of Big Machine Label Group, Scott Borchetta represents some of country music's biggest stars, but he always had roots in racing. He grew up racing bicycle motocross and quarter midgets and then moved up to the NASCAR weekly series, where he ran the Super Trucks at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway. Truck courtesy of Scott Borchetta
Rascal Flatts' song "Red Camaro" led to a crossover between NASCAR, music and TV. This red camaro was featured on an episode of the show "Inside West Coast Customs" in 2011. Then the car was brought to the 2011 Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where it was driven during the parade lap while Rascal Flatts performed. Car courtesy of Scott Borchetta
Target's already established sponsorship of Earnhardt Ganassi Racing's No. 42 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series car provided a unique opportunity for Taylor Swift. The paint scheme shown here was used at Kansas Speedway in October 2012 to promote the release of a deluxe version of her album "Red" that was available exclusively at Target.

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
The first time Michelle McKenzie competed in a triathlon, she took second place overall.
Not bad for a beginner. Even more impressive is that she found out later she competed in the triathlon while six weeks pregnant.
McKenzie took time off after the race to have her second child, but four years later she hasn't skipped a beat.
McKenzie, 36, won the Athleta Iron Girl Atlanta Women's Triathlon this May, cementing her comeback in the endurance sport.
"I had high expectations," McKenzie said. "I wasn't sure if I would win it or not. It was a nice surprise."
The Iron Girl victory improved an already impressive competition resume for McKenzie. She's competed in 16 triathlons and has finished in the top five in her age group every time. She was the overall female winner in four races and top five in 13 of them. McKenzie qualified for the Ironman World Championship 70.3, the Super Bowl of her sport, this past weekend in Las Vegas.
"I think the Iron Girl is a great event for women in general because it allows everyone to come together," McKenzie said. "It gives you that taste and experience of a triathlon and what it's like."
McKenzie and her husband Scott own a dental practice in Buford. She works as a dentist two days a week and takes care of their two boys Cameron, 4, and Ryan, 3. In between, she finds time for grueling training sessions.
A typical weekly training schedule includes morning swims and workout sessions, evening bike rides, long runs and bike rides on the weekend and an open water swim.
A 1994 Parkview grad, McKenzie grew up swimming for the Dynamo Swim Club out of Mountain Park. She swam for legendary Gwinnett swim coach Rick Creed at Parkview, where she was a state qualifier.
As a University of Georgia student, she began to run road races for fun. She's run more than 50 races over the last decade from local 5K and 10K races to half marathons in Atlanta and marathons in Chicago, Honolulu, Las Vegas and New York.
McKenzie won her age group at the Georgia Half Marathon in March with a time of 1 hour, 27 minutes, 40 seconds. She ran the New York City Marathon in 2010 with a personal record of 3:14.06.
"I run faster now than I did in high school," she said with a laugh. "It's a sport that has kind of taken a lot of time with the biomechanics and everything with it. Learning a lot of that has helped a lot."
With a swimming and running background, McKenzie was willing to give triathlons a shot with encouragement of one of her friends.
"I just figured having a swim background, enjoying the running and getting that biking going, I just enjoy it. I have a lot of fun with it," McKenzie said.
She competed in the My First/My Next Triathlon at Lake Lanier in 2008, where she took second overall. She found out she was six weeks pregnant and didn't do another triathlon, but did continue to stay in shape.
"I ran throughout my whole pregnancy," McKenzie said. "I did the Atlanta Thanksgiving Half Marathon probably 31 weeks pregnant. I've always been an advocate of staying fit."
McKenzie returned to triathlons in 2010 and picked up right where she left off. She won her first race after a nearly two-year layoff. She was doing very well at races by training on her own, but once she qualified for the world championships in Vegas last year, she realized she needed a coach. That's when she found Kat Tindol, a local triathlete and coach, to train her.
"I feel like all the athletes around have a coach," McKenzie said. "For the most part it's a hard lifestyle to have kids, have a job."
Since winning the Iron Girl in May, McKenzie has spent her time training for the world championships. She had a good showing at the 11 Global Olympic Triathlon at the end of June, taking first on the female side in the longer distance event.
A wife and mother of two, McKenzie plans to continue to compete in triathlons for as long as she can. Her hard work and success have been an inspiration to her family and friends and something she wants to continue.
"I hope I can inspire the way others have inspired me," McKenzie said.

About this project
This is it! Dream big or stay home...ok, I changed the saying a bit, but I have had this dream to conduct bigfoot research across the United States and I am ready to make this dream a reality!
I have worked at Cleveland State University 12 years for the benefit of having my 3 love of my life daughters attend for free. I have lived my entire life for them and now that they are grown, I want to live my life for me!
On July 1st I am going to load up my Jeep with camping gear and clothes, my laptop and cell phone and I am going to begin a cross country journey to research Bigfoot, but mostly to document me meeting all of the Bigfoot enthusiasts I have met through Facebook.
I need about $5000.00 to begin the journey.
An outline of my proposed journey is located on my webpage here.
Approximately 6,900 miles total round trip.
I will document every facet then I will edit all of the video and submit to film festivals nation wide.

An Archer MSA is a Medical Savings Account that a taxpayer is allowed to put money into throughout the year for medical purposes and are tax deductible. You can make withdrawals that are tax free, but have to be used towards qualified medical expenses under a high deductible health plan. Withdrawals for any other purpose other than medical are taxed and may be subject to penalties. Most forms of medical care are covered under this account no matter if the expenses are billed through your insurance company or not. Some other forms of care that are covered most of the time are disability, dental and vision, and long-term. After the taxpayer has met their plan deductible, the high deductible health plan will pick up the left over medical expenses in that year. If the taxpayer has any money left in their account at the end of the year they can choose to roll it over to the next year or withdraw it and claim it as taxable income.
Some employers offer MSAs as an alternative health insurance for their workers. These accounts can be looked at as a good thing if you are the kind of person who doesn't need to go to the doctor a lot or don't get sick a lot. The MSAs act like IRAs because you take the money and put it into a savings account that yields interest for you.

A lot of clowning around while snowed in at base camp.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQcLMBCIGo4&feature=player_embeddedM
So nice in fact, that I ripped off my pants and jammed out with you guys on my dining room table. It was a bit awkward when my roommate walked in. Not because he wasn't down with it, but because he also ripped off his pants and then we were just 2 half-naked dudes dancing on a table which is super awkward because we don't have blinds or curtains in our kitchen window. Afterwards we sat in silence for about 30 minutes and then one of us started crying. It was probably him but... I honestly don't remember, it was that intense.
I don't think I'll ever be able to look at obsidian the same way again :-)
It was only awkward when other hikers came by while we were filming....but just a little bit :)

1880-11-29 (140lbs) Andrew McLaren w co 7 (finish) Tom Donnelly, Wallace's Irongate Gym, Glasgow, Scotland
1880-11-29 (140lbs) Andrew McLaren w co 7 (finish) Tom Donnelly, Wallace's Irongate Gym, Glasgow, Scotland. Made at catchweights with both men inside 140lbs, McLaren (137) had too much for Donnelly (139) and he was well clear by the seventh when the latter weakened badly. Coming into that session, McLaren quickly got down to business and after Donnelly had made it to his feet, having been floored by a right to the jaw, another similar blow to the same spot saw him counted out. McLaren's claim to the English title remained intact but not much more is heard of him.
However, there were plenty of 140lbs championship competition winners, including Jim Steadman (who outpointed Harry Mead over three rounds at the Five Inkhorns Public House, Shoreditch, London on 5 December 1881), Arthur Cooper (who outpointed George Roberts over three rounds at the Goldsmith's Arms, Clerkenwell, London on 23 January 1882), Dick Roberts (who outpointed Cooper over three rounds at the St Andrew's Hall, Westminster, London on 2 October 1882), Owen Hannon (who outpointed Bill Chesterfield Goode over three rounds at the Old Mile End Gate Tavern, Whitechapel, London on 19 January 1883) and Jim Kendrick (who outpointed Sam Baxter over three rounds at the Blue Anchor Public House, Shoreditch, London on 12 October 1885).
The bare-knuckle fighter, Jim Berry, had been claiming the English 140lbs title since February 1885; and Johnny Robinson was also challenging all and sundry throughout 1885, but Kendrick, following his win over Baxter, was seen to be the best bet at the weight.

Five Keys to Effective Management
To manage a dental practice effectively, concentrate on these key areas:
1. Attitude. A person's attitude is an outward manifestation. If a concierge at an upscale hotel or a Broadway actor is in a bad mood, the hotel customers or theater patrons will never know. In a dental office, team members must also present a positive attitude to patients. It is an essential job requirement.
2. Expectations. I tell team members to insist on written job descriptions so they will get credit for the work they are doing. Doctors should make sure that everyone has a written job description so that performance is based on objective standards which reduce the chances of misunderstandings.
3. Communication Skills. One of the most important communication skills that is often overlooked is listening. Team members must not only have excellent verbal skills, but they must also actively listen to patients. Great listening skills are necessary to show empathy toward patients.
4. Leadership. It has been said that nature abhors a vacuum. The doctor has to be a leader and act like a leader, but leadership must be evidenced by all involved. For example, when a patient needs to be educated regarding proper home care, the hygienist has to step into a leadership role.
5. Accountability. Newton must have visited dental practices when he developed his first law of motion: "An object at rest tends to remain at rest." There is much inertia in a dental practice when it comes to making needed changes in the way the practice is run. By breaking down projects into subparts and asking individuals to report progress on specific dates, you can create a culture of accountability and begin to make progress on implementing new protocols in the office.
These are the five keys to management success. If you would like a free telephone consultation to talk about how to apply these principles in your office, send an e-mail to email@example.com
