AUSTIN — After 14 months of telling anyone who would listen that Gov. Rick Perry broke the law, the battle-tested liberal activist who instigated a criminal investigation of the Republican governor sounded content late Friday.
"We're happy," said Craig McDonald of Austin, director of the nonprofit campaign reform group Texans for Public Justice. It filed the original complaint against Perry with prosecutors last year.
"The legal process is working as it should be," said McDonald, who years ago worked for consumer safety advocate and future Green Party presidential candidate Ralph Nader. "The grand jury decided that Perry's bullying crossed the line into law-breaking."
Reaction predictably split along partisan lines.
State Democratic Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa said that "Perry has brought dishonor to his office" and demanded that he step down. Republicans and conservative activists — and even the governor's own son — dismissed the indictment as motivated by partisanship.
Griffin Perry, the governor's son, tweeted a Bible verse from Proverbs warning one not to believe the first claim raised in a legal dispute. He followed that with one he said quotes a wise man: "A good prosecutor could get an indictment on a ham sandwich."
State GOP Chairman Steve Munisteri of Houston said "a politically motivated prosecution" yielded the indictment.
"It's not unusual for people in cases involving politics to move forward with an indictment and ultimately … the case doesn't go anywhere or the person is eventually exonerated," he said.
Fiscal hawk Michael Quinn Sullivan of Empower Texans, a strong ally of the governor, said Perry's lawyers will expose unfavorable issues about Democratic Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg's Public Integrity Unit. It was Perry's decision to eliminate funding for the unit after Lehmberg refused to step down that is at the heart of the indictment.
"This is malicious prosecution, pure and simple," Sullivan said. "This case is nothing more than trying to impeach his character, to impugn him politically."
But Democratic operative Matt Angle of the Lone Star Project said the indictment "confirms the corrupt culture of GOP leadership in Texas."
Ken Emanuelson, a tea party activist, said the indictment doesn't "carry much weight" with him or other Republicans because of what he views as partisanship at the district attorney's office, which several years ago brought conspiracy charges against former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, a Republican.
But he said the indictment could shape public perception of Perry as he eyes a run for president.
"It probably has more of a political effect outside of the state than it does inside the state," he said.

animals after they arrive by freight train, until they are transported
to the circus location (Will Rogers Colliseum)."
"During the early morning hours of November 14th,
members of VT ARM liberated 20 turkeys that had been cruelly forced into
a small pen without shelter. The pen had been set up along side a road
as a marketing ploy. The decision to liberate the turkeys was made after
it was learned that they were to be murdered that morning. It took the
extraction team less than 5 minutes to breach the fence and liberate the
turkeys. As a parting gift members of ARM slashed the tires of the
mobile slaughter house, which had been parked less then 20 meters away,
while the driver sat in the front seat smoking. Uncle Sam spent
thousands training us to be the best and now those who think they can
profit off the suffering of animals will learn that we are. We will use
whatever means necessary to liberate animals, prevent cruelty and punish
those who commit acts of cruelty. To the Bushway criminals, Happy

"We delivered eight incendiary devices to the lovely
folks at Ylipelto�s Fur Farm, at 92659 Simonsen Loop Road in Astoria on
the morning of July 27th. It is nice to see that the enslavement,
torture, and death of thousands of innocent creatures affords certain
people luxuries like boats, nice cars, and various (expensive, no doubt)
'farm' machinery, and we were more than happy to alleviate them of
these. A careful attack sent structures up in flame both in the front
and rear of the property, simultaneously. We hope that this can leave an
impression on our friends, Veikko & Eeva, that making such a living off
of the subjugation of sentient creatures (for something as selfish and
disgusting as the fashion industry, no less) will not be tolerated. We
hope that others like them will also consider where their priorities lie
(the nearby Wilkinson & Stunkard farms, to name a couple), and decide
whether or not they�d like to be next.

A boat, a car, two forklifts and a barn were damaged

date, neither the Animal Liberation Front nor other clandestine animal

not to be taken as a speculation of an animal liberation motive. Rather,
I wish to offer what may be a broader and more accurate view of the
scope of underground animal liberation activity.Numerous unclaimed
but �suspicious� actions are reported at animal abuse sites every year.
For example
the 2009 explosion at the only Slim Jim production facility in the
U.S., for which a cause was not determined.Similar unclaimed actions
have been reported in Colorado. On January 13th, 2002,
another sheepskin business went up in flames north of Denver in
Greeley. The building was burned to the ground. No claim of
responsibility was made in that fire either, but the fire was deemed
suspicious due to A.L.F. graffiti threatening arson being found at a
similar plant in Denver the previous month. This latest arson marks the
second burned down sheep skin business in Colorado.

Ammonium Bifloride is corrosive when applied to glass.
It is easy to come by via internet or craft store. Sulfuric acid is
water soluble and corrosive as well.
You can put the mixture in glass bottles and throw it at

Other uses: put in glass spray bottles and simply spray

"While out walking around town one night we noticed a
farm-like smell appear from what seemed like no-where. This struck us as
odd, being that we were in the heart of Salt Lake City. We did some
exploring and came across a building tucked away, hidden from view, near
an unused parking-lot, which we later figured out was owned by 'carriage
for hire'. Carriage for Hire is the last remaining horse-carriage
service operating in Salt Lake City. Being curious, we entered the
building and found a number of beautiful horses standing in mounds of
feces scattered across the floor. The conditions these horses are living
in is sadly disturbing. After letting the horses know we were not there
to harm them and giving them some well needed attention, we returned to
explore. We found some other rooms, one being full of the carriages. We
left that night.
We returned a few nights later to '428 West 200 North,
Salt Lake City, UT', which is the address, in case you are curious one
night as well. Armed with glue and bits of metal, from hair-pins, we
glued the locks on the carriage storage room making sure to insert bits
of metal as well, assuring it was permanently locked for good. We gave
the horses more attention, keeping the lock on their door free of glue,
to assure they are attended to, and would be reachable for feeding and
watering. Then we vanished into the night.
This is only a warning as locks can be replaced.
Hopefully it kept the carriages locked up long enough for the horses to
take a well deserved vacation. Be aware though, if it had only been
carriages & the horses were not a part of the equation. There would be
no more building left.
We do these actions because all lives deserve to be
free. We aren't doing these actions out of violent hate. More so, we are
doing these actions because we are compassionate beings who feel
non-human animals deserve the same amount of respect all living
creatures should have.
Leave the Horses alone, and pull your own carriage if
you really must have one.
You've been warned, we are watching.

The stuff kids really need for high school
Here are some easy tips to help you upgrade your childs supplies for high school. more
Hand, foot and mouth disease is also known as coxsackievirus infections. Hand, foot and mouth disease is very common in childhood and is easy to identify by its tell-tale mouth sores and rash on the feet and hands.
Hand, foot and mouth disease infections are caused by an enterovirus. Enteroviruses are extremely common; in fact they are second only to common cold viruses. Hand, foot, and mouth disease spreads through contact with an infected person, or through contact with the secretions of an infected person.
Most hand, foot and mouth disease infections are not serious and resolve themselves with little or no treatment in about a week to ten days. Severe hand, foot, and mouth disease can lead to meningitis, but this is very rare.
Like any virus, hand, foot and mouth disease is best prevented through proper hygiene by teaching kids to wash their hands with soap and water. Avoid exposure to other children who have the virus and notify your child's school or child care centre if your child is diagnosed with hand, foot and mouth disease to avoid spreading the virus to other children. Hand, foot and mouth disease tends to spread quickly in child care situations.
Older children and adults may breeze through a bout of hand, foot and mouth disease with few, if any, symptoms. The virus is most common in children under ten. Children who contract hand, foot and mouth disease may display some or all of the following symptoms:
For the most part, you don't need to do anything if your child has hand, foot and mouth disease, other than make him comfortable and avoid spreading the virus to other children. Keep him home from school or child care until the blisters heal over. You can give him paracetamol for the fever or minor aches that may accompany the virus. Make sure that he gets lots of rest and fluids.
Call the doctor if your child experiences an unusually high fever, or has joint pain and/or bad headaches. These may be signs that his illness needs medical treatment.

Meppershall is a hilltop village in Bedfordshire, England near Shefford, Campton, Shillington, Stondon and surrounded by farmland. Until 1844 Meppershall was partially in Hertfordshire. The detached portion of Hertfordshire was transferred to Bedfordshire in 1844, following the Counties (Detached Parts) Act 1844.
The Village and the Manor House are mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086. The Manor House belonged to the De Meppershall family for nearly 300 years following 1086; however, the present house is early 17th century.
St. Mary's church dates back to the Normans. The Parish Records of St Mary, Meppershall, have been published on CD by the Parochial Church Council.
Before the advent of greenhouses, Meppershall was a very poor community with large families living in two up, two down type thatched cottages built of brick with stone floors. However so many greenhouses were built in the village that it was known as "glass city" growing salad crops for local markets and shipped further afield via the railway.

Unholy Magic (Downside Ghosts Series #2)
NOOK Book(eBook)
BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Stacia Kane's City of Ghosts.
For Chess Putnam, finding herself near-fatally poisoned by a con psychic and then stopping a murderous ghost is just another day on the job. As an agent of the Church of Real Truth, Chess must expose those looking to profit from the world's unpleasant little poltergeist problem—humans filing false claims of hauntings—all while staving off any undead who really are looking for a kill. But Chess has been extra busy these days, coping with a new "celebrity" assignment while trying on her own time to help some desperate prostitutes.
Someone's taking out the hookers of Downside in the most gruesome way, and Chess is sure the rumors that it's the work of a ghost are way off base. But proving herself right means walking in the path of a maniac, not to mention standing between the two men in her life just as they—along with their ruthless employers—are moving closer to a catastrophic showdown. Someone is dealing in murder, sex, and the supernatural, and once again Chess finds herself right in the crossfire.

I know that there is no Church of the Real Truth and therefore, no job that pays you for banishing spirits. So, why then, as I was reading this book, did I actually scream out loud? Even though this is just a story (a very, very, good story), I find myself relating to the characters in a way that I didn't expect. Ms. Kane does a great job of creating a world that you can actually imagine is realistic and believable. Although I did enjoy the first book, the second book, for me, just added another juicy layer. So, even though Downside is not a "nice" place, why, as I read, can I actually imagine hanging out with Chess and Terrible? Someone needs to help Chess get off drugs. I wish that someone was me! Read this series!
Sick of paranormal fluff? Stacia Kane has not only written a new twist on the paranormal - quite successfully I might add... She has brought a character to life that has hit with brutal honesty how an addict lives and feels. I appreciate the honesty and lack of sugar coating. I've been there and yet, I BELIEVED it! And THAT is some excellent writing. I highly recommend this series. Watch your back Laurell K. Hamilton.
There are no words to describe how I felt when I read this book. I literaly jumped off my bed screming "OMG!!!"...(pause)"THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!!". Of course it took me a while to settle, I had to start reading the next book in the series inmediately after. I just have to know what happens next! Everything in this book builds up so masterfully to the point that I was holding my nook with one hand and grabing and twisting the sheets on my bed with the other one. I'm so in love with the characters, I can't get enough!! My hat is off to Ms. Kane.
I am stunned. Chess is a truly conflicted, mixed-up woman with a lot of demons in her past; demons she is trying to drown in drugs and booze. Interestingly enough, she's a "Churchwitch," who is paid to debunk ghosts out of people's homes, meaning, she has to prove there really is or isn't a ghost in the house. Throughout all of her travails, she hooks up with Terrible, an enforcer for the dealer who keeps her stocked in drugs. Those 2 make a great pair when defeating ghosts, but they would make a BETTER pair if Chess would pull her head from her backside and get with the program, and stop hurting him so much! AAARRGGHH!!! Can't wait for the 3rd book, City of Ghosts!!!
I was given this book to review. Chess Putnam lives in a hybrid punk-pseudo-Catholic world where ghosts are real, The Church rules everything and Chess can only be herself in the drug-laced gutter rock bars of Triumph City. So it's not actually Catholicism that has taken over (in fact all the religions we know today are archaic and illegal), but rather a domineering, completely ruling "Church" that came about when ghosts tore through the streets, killing everyone they could many years ago. Since then the Church (the one that rules the world) has taken over by protecting people from the murderous ghosts who still try to break free every so often. The dark angle of universally murderous ghosts is a greater metaphor, especially in this second book in Kane's Downside series, since the books focus on Chess, who is a Debunker (and ghost banisher) for the Church, but who is also haunted by her vicious childhood and has become an addict just to deal the trauma of her past. Terrible, the right hand man to Chess' dealer, but an almost good-hearted guy, asks Chess for help when a series of hookers are found dead, and the witnesses say a ghost is to blame. Rival dealer Slobag, has been facing the same problem. With both sides ready to throw down as much as cooperate, Chess being bribed or blackmailed into loyalty to each side, the Church giving her a high profile, career making case and a ghost and witch team doing the unspeakable to the women of the street, all the pressure is on Chess, who just can't handle it. Chess is a spiderweb of cracks, pieces of her slowly giving way to the pressure. Reading Unholy Magic is watching her breakdown, under the strain others put on her, and the tragedy of the ways she chooses to punish herself. Unholy Magic is not a pretty book. It's not an easy experience, but it is a viscerally emotional story. It's dark, at times outright lovely, a must read for those who read urban fantasy for a dark, psychologically twisted tinge to characters and world settings. Some of the best writing in speculative fiction today can be found here, with monumental world building, raw characters and a darkly surreal feel that's hard to find elsewhere. One for horror and dark fantasy fans, not lightweights, Unholy Magic is simply not to be missed.
Like many before me, it's safe to say that I'm a fully blown addict of this series. I was hooked after the first book, but after this one, I'm so far into it, I'm going to go into withdrawl before Book 4 is published! Chess is still letting her addiction run her life. More of her dark past is revealed in this book, and she gets even more of my sympathy because of it. It's amazing to me that she's able to function on this level with the turmoil in her past. She has already survived some of the worst things anyone can imagine, and she's still holding her life and job together. Of course, our heroine is making a mess of her life. She's still doing favors for Bump and Slobag because of her addiction. She's still toying with Lex (because of the free drugs and companionship) and Terrible, the only person in the world who is trustworthy to her. We learn a lot more about Terrible's past, too. We see a heartwrenching speech from Terrible that seems so out of character for a gang enforcer, yet seems so right coming from him. I want to say he's a good guy, but how can I say that about a gang enforcer? But he is - I'm cheering for both Terrible and Chess in this book. And I like Lex - I mean, he's not all that bad to Chess. Stacia Kane does not give the reader the easy scapegoat with Lex - Chess is responsible for her own decisions. There's no one to get mad at except for Chess. She has it all - a good job, her addiction fed, and the admiration, trust and love of the only important person in her life and she seems hell bent on destroying it all. Maybe Chess really does have a deathwish. With the bumps and bruises (physically and emotionally) that Chess deals with in this book, she's still dragging herself up by her bootstraps, dusting herself off, and continuing to try to put the pieces of her life back together. There is great strength and resiliance in this character. The ending of this book is also heartwrenching, from Terrible's realization of Chess' poor choices, to the harshly worded fight between Terrible and Chess, to the selfless final scenes. The action doesn't stop for one minute. I seriously couldn't put this book down. As you can see, I can't say enough about this book and this series. It's only getting better.
Hussies from the street corner are being knocked off and it's up to Chess to find out who is behind this. Word on the street is that a ghost is behind these murders. Chess doesn't put much stock into this rumor and she's betting that the killer is human. I'm addicted. I am so ready for City of Ghosts! Stacia is one of the best Urban Fantasy writers that I have ever read.
Chess is the prototype of a flawed heroine. She is exciting and bad at the same time. Although you see where she is going to make a mistake, you still cheer her on. Well written and I cannot wait to read the rest of the series.
I have to keep reading while my mind weeps for chess and her inability to do the right thing even as it kills her
Book 2 sizzles!
I am an avid reader of the paranormal/urban fantasy genre and have to say Stacia Kane is one of my top ten authors. This was so well written emotionally for Chess it left me gut wrenched and raw right along side her. A few of her scenes brought tears to my my eyes and that's a rarity for me. In addition the plot line was well written and did not feel rushed to get the ending out like a lot of authors do. She made the characters work for it and by extension me as the reader. Loved it!! Kimberly Shihady
couldnt put it down
What a disturbingly addictive series. Chess is a freaking mess. This is a dark, dirty, seductive and very disturbing Urban Fantasy series. It's almost hard to read. It's certainly not for the faint of heart. I get very uncomfortable reading about the drug use. The drugs are an integral part of Chess, the world and the story. Part of me hates it. hates reading about it, hates thinking about it, and hates that Chess is so addicted to it. The other part of me is fascinated. Fascinated that Chess is a somewhat functioning person... Gosh. Terrible. Man. I feel for Terrible. And Chess really, but you do reap what you sew. Lex, well, sure he itches a scratch, but Chess needs to sober up, grow up, deal with some of her issues and take charge or her life.. Drugs are not the answer!! Can't wait to read the next one
In Unholy Magic, we dive deeper into the two worlds Chess exists within: The Church of Truth and Downside. Prostitutes in Downside are being murdered in heinous ways with the tinge of dark, sex-tinged magic hanging over their mutilated and branded corpses. The moment her official dealer Bump has the chance, he calls in 'his' churchwitch to figure out the cause. Chess has maintained her booty call/drug connection with Lex, so she ends up agreeing to work the same job from rival dealer Slobag's side, too. She's wedged between warring drug lords, where one wrong step could lead to death, not just hers. All the working girls are convinced it's a specific serial killer's ghost. The ghosts they're focused on has been in Church prison for years. As such, we get to see more inside the Church of Truth headquarters. Stacia Kane paints the scenes vividly, particularly when Chess ventures into one of the deepest Church ghost prisons to confirm the serial killer is still caged. Her description of our heroine's descent into this man-made hell for ghosts is startling, adding to the overall understanding of this alternate future Kane has created. In Unholy Ghosts, Chess was without anyone in her life. No one relied on her or was invested in her welfare for altruistic purposes. In this series we see lots of people use Chess, but we also start to see a real connection form between Chess and Terrible. She has trouble accepting the possibility of trust, but wants it. Her loose relationship with Lex begins to weigh on her. She crashes with him, lets him supply her drugs and keeps it all from Terrible. She finally has to begin looking at what damage she could be doing to these potential friendships, a first for her. That worry, though, can't overcome her addiction. In Unholy Magic we see the depths of Chess' addiction, the truth that functional addiction is an unrealistic hope. As a result, we also see more clearly how easily Chess can be manipulated. She's lost control - not just to her addiction, but also of her freedom. She's miserable and sees the steps to regaining her life as giving up. In Unholy Magic she has to face the truth of her situation and make the decision if her life with the Church, with friends, with lovers is worth a change. With increased intensity, Kane delivers an action-packed, dark urban fantasy novel that will leave you reeling for days after finishing it. (We actually pre-ordered the third novel, City of Ghosts, the day after completion of Unholy Magic because we don't want to waste even a day not knowing what will happen with Chess, her job, the love-triangle and the others within Downside.) This review was originally posted at Vampire Book Club (http://www.vampirebookclub.net).
Three months after the banishing of the Dreamthief in Unholy Ghosts Chess is helping the Black Squad to build a case. She's starting to be viewed differently by her peers at work, considered that she just might be good at her job. Chess decides to stop out for a drink and see a band at the local bar with her one friend, Terrible. Chess ends up going with Terrible to look into a murder of a hooker. Terrible wants Chess to verify the killer is not a ghost. But knowing Bump, if it is a ghost, he would have her take care of it instead of the Church directly. The murder was close to the edge of Bump's and Lex's territories. Chess finds herself in the grasps of Bumps manipulation with drugs and his knowledge of her, again. So of course, Chess agrees to help both Bump, and Lex without the other knowing, but at what cost to her... This book is a wonderful number two to the series. Stacia Kane, once again does not disappoint here. I got drawn into Chess's cases and life. This book was just as intense or more so than Unholy Ghosts. The cases, both of them, hit close to home once again to Chess - actually closer than she would like. Chess is stuck between the feud of her close friends boss and her local drug dealer, and the man who has been giving her free drugs and who she shares a night with once in a while. I watched as Chess's life which seems to work so well for her, comes apart at the seams. Then Chess realizes what she wants and tries to fix everything to get it. The characters are a great love in this book. The way we get to see more dynamics from them - history, reactions, and intimacy with each other. We got more insight on our lovable bouncer, Terrible. We get to see a softer side and the more dangerous side (that many others in the book see) of Terrible. The story line... just keeps going. The pacing is quick and keeps you turning the pages. The different cases Chess works on kept me going to see what would happen and where the cases would lead. And the trauma in Chess's life just adds the flare to the story. All full of action, suspense, and even a caring between the characters.
homicides. The Church of Real Truth field debunker and ghost dispatcher Chess Putnam is assigned to ferret out the truth. She expects the killer to be human concealing his or her identity with ghostly whispers. That she knows is the norm when she investigates a reported haunting as some mortal hides one or more of the seven deadly sin transgressions however some supernatural essences are killers. Chess makes inquiries in which everyone she interviews insists a ghost is at large and other evidence supports the claim of something from beyond. As she digs deeper into the case, she realizes a lunatic is combining murder with sex to dabble in the paranormal. To bring this maniac out into the open means risking her soul. Unholy Magic is a terrific urban fantasy whodunit starring a street tough investigator. Chess is fabulous as her experience as an operative means eliminate the obvious and the rumored leads to almost always find a deranged or scamming human. However, the occasional outlier is what makes Chess' job dangerous. Readers will appreciate her investigation into what in her mind is a mortal serial killer whose become a paranormal myth; as with her previous case Unholy Ghost the line of demarcation is especially emaciated. Harriet Klausner
A very hard book to read. At times, I hated Chess. I hated what she is doing to her body with drugs. But I also hated how both Lex and Terrible are involved in ways that no one is going to come out the winner. Terrific writing, pain filled ending.
Then repeat, again and again.
Terrible, Chess and the rest of the folks in and around Downside are such broken, human characters. Stacia Kane's writing makes you love them and hate them and hurt for them (especially Chess and Terrible). One of my new favorites.
OMG. This series. I really enjoyed the first book, Unholy Ghosts. More than I thought I would. But, it was the second book, Unholy Magic, that solidified me as a certified fangirl of the Downside Ghosts series. The beyond complicated relationship between Chess and Terrible laced together with an incredibly weird and twisted mystery made for a book that was completely unresistable. Prostitutes are being mutilated, and Bump has Chess and Terrible looking into it. Meanwhile, Chess is looking into a supposed haunting at a famous actor's house. Only, things start going wrong at every turn. The prostitutes keep dying, the house really might be haunted by the spirit of a murderous ghost, and Chess' time of burning candles at both ends when it comes to Lex and Terrible is about to blow up in her face. Chess continues to be an enigmatic heroine. Her drug use doesn't appear to be tapering off. In fact, if anything, it seems to be getting worse. Her success at solving complicated and dangerous jobs has sent more high-profile - and high-stress - cases her way. She is falling more and more in love with Terrible, which scares the poo out of her. And Lex is giving her free pills. All of which serve as evidence that her pill-popping is not going to stop anytime soon. Chess is a study of the imperfect heroine. It seems that, in books, heroes and heroines are very "good." They're strong, confident, beautiful, intelligent and well-liked. They sometimes make bad choices, but things always have a way of working out in the end. Chess is like the anti-heroine. Although intelligent and pretty, Chess is not strong or confident or well-liked. She hates herself and where she comes from. She suffered horrible abuse as a child which seriously messed with her head. She doesn't think she's capable of love or being loved. She second guesses all her choices and she usually takes the easy way out in order to not face the truth, especially if she thinks the truth will be particularly hard to face. Chess has cornered the market on making mistakes. Particularly when it comes to the men in her life. Whenever she starts having real feelings for Terrible, she runs right into the arms of Lex because he is safe and she feels nothing for him. It's a temporary balm, but all of it comes crashing down around her and she eventually has to face up to all of her actions and feelings. The mysteries in Unholy Magic are seriously messed up. I've got two words for you - GHOST WHORES. Seriously - if those two words don't make you want to run right out and read this book right now, I don't know what will. It's an intricate plot with lots of twists and turns, many of which I didn't see coming from a mile away. It was awesome! Although dark and twisted, I thoroughly enjoyed trying to figure out who did what and how the two separate cases were tied together as they seem to be in this series. Terrible is just the most awesome guy ever. He's scary and formidable and uneducated. He's scarred and unattractive by most people's standards. Yet, it's so easy to see that he cares deeply and fiercely for the people he considers important. We learn more about him and his past and it just goes further toward proving this fact. Once again, I listened to the audio version, and once again I'm so glad I did. Narrator Bahni Turpi does an amazing job with the Downside lingo. I enjoy her interpretation of the books so much, I intend to continue with the books in the series in their audio format. I enjoy them so much - I can't wait to get in my car every day to go to work.
Need more
The second book in the series and officially has me hooked. I have already bought and began ready the third book as I write this. I could not put this book down!
Figuatively speaking, of course.

PRZOOM - /newswire/ -
St Albans, Herts, United Kingdom, 2006/06/19 - To help combat 'football fever', and other problems for an overstretched HR department, an online solution from Echelon Publishing provides geographically dispersed line managers with expert knowledge on disciplinary processes and procedures..
The soccer World Cup may bring a nation to its feet but it can chop the legs out from under time-poor human resources (HR) departments.
Last months (May 2006) Confederation of British Industry (CBI) survey of 400 organisations found worker time off for sickness amounting to 164m days in 2005 at a cost of £13.2 bn to the UK economy.
According to 40% of employers surveyed, 13% of days lost were due to major sporting events.
Consequent disciplinary processes are increasingly complicated and time-consuming for departmental managers and HR departments.
An online solution from Echelon Publishing provides geographically dispersed line managers with expert knowledge on disciplinary processes and procedures via a step by step flowchart with key stages in Investigation, Hearing and Appeal linked to a Help file pinpointing required actions.
By answering basic queries and explaining procedures to managers, the system gives managers more confidence to manage processes themselves and limits their contact with HR departments to special cases or where a procedure demands HR involvement, enabling department staff to concentrate on other important issues.
Echelons Absence Management programme is one of a range of bespoke, web-distributed learning packages available to members of a major professional training body.
Says Echelons David Hill: "This package provides its managers with all the information needed to ensure that sickness absence is handled in accordance with legislation, user policies and in a way which reflects its organisational values."
The CBI survey found absenteeism 30% higher among public sector workers, who missed on average 8.5 days of work in 2005 compared with six days on average in the private sector.
Companies that were unionised averaged 7.6 days of absenteeism compared with 5.5 days for those that were not, with similar gaps seen among large and small employers.

Guest Blog Item: TBT's Jay Cridlin Talks with Demetri Martin
You are witness to a first for The Feed: a guest column (probably a relief to some of you -- sorry, Fox News fans)!
Turns out, TBT writer Jay Cridlin had some nuggets leftover from his interview with Daily Show/Late Night with Conan O'Brien contributor Demetri Martin. Rather than leave them to journalistic obscurity, has asked to borrow my blog to let you all check them out. Since I'm a nice guy and up standing colleague -- and desperate to grab those young eyeballs flocking to TBT -- I agreed.
So here's his extras with Demetri. If you want to check Demetri's personal web site, click here. And thanks to Jay for giving me one less blog item to report!
What kind of skits did you write for Conan?
I wrote one called "Nick Littleton, Tiny Stuntman." I would do stunts, and it would cut to an action figure who would just get totally f----- up doing things, but all on a really small scale. I had a character that had the torso of a man and the legs of a table, like a mythical beast, but he couldn't really move. And we'd have to write a lot of stuff like "Actual Items," and "In The Year 2000," and "Stamps."
Do you have a favorite one of those?
One of the first things I got on the show was a "Secrets." And it was Michael Caine. It was just, "Secrets…!" and he said, "I'm tattooed from neck to nuts." (laughs) I just like the phrase "neck to nuts." It got on the show, and it got a laugh, and I was like, "Cool, this is fun."
You don't feel guilty making Michael Caine say "nuts?"
No. Those guys all approve. They just do what they want anyway when they come in. It's like a compliment if they say yours.
Was there anything you wrote that was too weird to get on the air at Conan?
No, but I wrote this thing called "Late Night in Space." that kept getting bumped. It was going to be that Conan sent a probe into space to look for jokes in the year 1999. There were going to be all of us on this ship, basically just writing s----- jokes in space. I thought it was really funny, but it was just too elaborate.
What is your role going to be with Microsoft?
They came to me like in the spring and were like, 'How would you like to be involved in a Web campaign for this new operating system?' I was like, 'Eh, I don't know. Maybe.' I've never had a relationship with a big company before. But they've been really cool so far. I got to make six Web films, and we'll shoot a seventh on the road. I want to make films, and I want to get to act and stuff, so this was a great opportunity.
Are you already using Windows Vista?
Yeah. I play video out of it, and I do a slideshow, like a bunch of drawings, through this laptop. I have a little foot pedal, so I just advance the slides with my foot, which is kind of cool.
It's funny – in a way, you're competing with your fellow Daily Show contributor John Hodgman, who plays the PC in those Apple 'Mac vs. PC' ads. Do you get into Mac/PC arguments with him now?
I haven't seen him since his stuff went down. But John Hodgman's a great guy. I write these little essays sometimes in the New York Times funny pages, and he's my editor. We both started The Daily Show around the same
time, and I think his book (The Areas of My Expertise) is hilarious.
There is this whole comedy world out there – you mentioned John Hodgman,and there are these other comedians like Aziz Ansari and Eugene Mirman and Zach Galifianakis. You can't even really put a word on what it is, other than indie comedy, or alternative comedy, but it's all kind of the same sensibility.
It's definitely different than the '80s comic with the blazer getting into the differences between men and women. That's not what I think attracts a lot of us to what we're doing. In the end, the journey is to try to be oneself in front of a group of people you don't know, and entertain them. I used to work at The Daily Show as an intern when Craig Kilborn was there, and A. Whitney Brown was one of the correspondents. I was just starting out in standup, and I was asking him his advice, and he said this thing to me
that was really cool: "You've got to tip your audience. You've got to give people what they paid for, but just tip the audience, so they get a little bit extra than what they paid for when they came to see you, so when they leave, they take something with them." That is good advice. Not easy to do, but it's true.
Of course, the most popular young comic in the biz right now seems to be Dane Cook, who's selling out stadiums and has hosted Saturday Night Live twice.
He's miles ahead, in terms of popularity. Dane, first of all, has been doing it for like 15 years. I think you have to respect the fact that he is a comic who did his time. And second, I think he's got a very smart head for marketing. I mean, that dude had a Web site with sound and all kinds of s--- before most people had a Web site at all. And then his very accessible approach to his fans, and doing colleges for years, and building up his mailing list – Dane is a real embodiment of that side of being a comedian.
A lot of people have taken note of that, kind of like, "I gotta get my MySpace going," and this and that. The other thing that makes Dane interesting is that for a lot of us, he makes you ask the question: "What do I want? What am I going for? How badly do I want this? Do I need to play
to 5,000 people a night? Do I need to play to 500? Do I need to just make a living? Do I want to be a movie star?" My style, personally, is I don't want to thrust myself too much on people. I like to sell to people the way I like being sold to myself. I like finding stuff. I think the country is big enough that people find the audience. The audience finds the performer. They find each other, if you just put it out there.
Do you know Dane at all? I get the sense that there are people in the comedy world who don't like him.
That's totally true, but the thing is this: That's true of every comic. I think it's just because Dane has sold so many albums, and is selling arenas. But there's just no comic everybody loves. In the end, certain guys make me laugh, and certain guys don't. I don't think it's a personal thing. You can't make yourself like somebody. It's just what strikes a chord in you. And I try to remember that, because I've seen people who just hate me, and I'm thinking, "Okay, you don't know me. Sure, you don't find me funny. I don't know why you hate me, but okay, you hate me." And other people, they're like, "I love you!" And again, it's like, "You don't know me, but thank you, that's cool. I'm glad that resonates with you."
You seem have made a career out of just doing what entertains you.
Yeah. And I'm kind of just learning as I go. I never did music. I drew very little. I never painted. I didn't act. I was going to be a lawyer. I was trying to win this whole game in my head, which was, get good grades, go to
a good school, get an impressive job. And then I realized, this is not fulfilling. So when I switched, it was kind of like starting from scratch, but I'm grateful. If I'm making any living doing this, cool. I don't have to have a day job.

I love living in Fullerton; it will be 37 years this January.
I love it for the history. In the mid-1980s I was privileged to serve on the city's Centennial Committee and to have a small roll in celebrating 100 years of our history in 1987. We have an abundant history to explore and appreciate. We also have a rich present.
I love living in a community with so many opportunities for education. It keeps us young, helps us embrace and appreciate our past, and connect us to the future. I love that we are supported by such an extensive and excellent medical community. (I say this with real gratitude as I sit here with my left foot propped up on pillows from the foot surgery I had recently.)
I love the Fullerton Arboretum and the rich resource and treasure it is. I love that we are a community that is willing to fight for a small bit of open space. And I love that we are a community that will go the extra mile for a homeless man.
I love that theater is alive and well in Fullerton. I love that we have an almost endless supply of excellent restaurants within a few miles of where I live. I love that we have parks named after astronauts. I love the red-tailed hawk that sits on our garden fence and the coyote that jumps it so easily. I even love the ugly opossum that sometimes peeks in my patio door and the raccoons that play in my fountain.
But most of all, I love Fullerton because it has hills. I don't think I could live in a flat town.
My passion is gardening and I love sharing the joys of gardening with others. I used to write a column in the Fullerton News-Tribune called The Growing Connection, because I believe that gardening connects us to life, our world and who we are. Today my husband and I coordinate the Emmanuel Community Demonstration Garden: A Place to Grow. It's a place where we connect, in community, to grow food, flowers and ourselves.
Our garden is located on Valencia Mesa Drive in Fullerton. We have 43 raised beds, a children's garden, an herb garden and the beginnings of a fruit orchard. We started our garden three years ago and approximately a third of our gardeners have never gardened before. I often find myself providing instruction and guidance to our gardeners through emails and as informal instruction when we meet at the garden. I also try to bring in occasional community experts for class instruction and inspiration.
Without realizing it I find that I have revived The Growing Connection – different but the same.

Downtown Raleigh's rep is growing
Posted September 16, 2011
Updated September 17, 2011
Raleigh, N.C. — Last week, the Hopscotch Music Festival welcomed more than 100 bands and an estimated 17,000 music fans to venues all around downtown Raleigh. This week it is SPARKcon, an event organizers call a "creative potluck," that will draw crowds to the capital city.
The four-day festival of fashion and visual and performing arts is just the latest example that Raleigh is becoming the place to be. Out and About: Find things to do in the Triangle
SPARKcon could draw an estimated 15,000 people to downtown Raleigh.
Artist Jill Frink likes the opportunity to showcase her talent for that audience. Jason Hibbets said he planned to bring the family.
"It resonates from downtown and brings people in from the neighborhoods surrounding the area," he said. "It's just vibrant and makes you want to be here."
Events draw crowds to downtown Raleigh
SPARKcon is the fourth straight weekend festival to be held downtown. Paul Reimel with the downtown Raleigh Alliance said that kind of streak builds momentum and establishes Raleigh as a destination.
The city's reputation is growing, Reimel said.
"I heard last weekend, people coming in from Ohio and other places where they're following bands that are here. It's certainly a much broader reach, drawing in traffic outside the region and that's really exciting for Raleigh," he said.

He may be one of the entertainment media's premiere Lost-ologists. • But try to compliment Entertainment Weekly writer Jeff Jensen on his encyclopedic knowledge of TV's most mysterious show, and he'll answer with the slightly bashful attitude of a guy who suspects he spends way too much time dissecting a television program. • Known as Doc Jensen to the folks who visit his blog posts on the magazine's EW.com site and watch his weekly Web show Totally Lost with fellow EW Lost-ologist Dan Snierson, he goes to heady territory in his analyses. • Like explaining how the castaways' journey mirrors the pattern of addiction recovery. Or floating his theory that the show is all about parents and the lengths they will go to to save or safeguard their children.
So, before the show starts its final season Tuesday, how does it feel to be at the beginning of the end?
In many ways, this is what every Lost fan was really waiting for and looking forward to — (seeing the show) lay out all its cards and bring everything to a really cool conclusion. At the same time, for a subset of Lost fandom that I happen to occupy and represent, there has been this weird and wild intellectual thrill ride of poring through every episode for clues. That intellectual gamesmanship — that will all end. And I'm going to miss that.
Can one 18-hour season answer all the questions Lost fans feel must be answered?
Everybody has a different notion of what the show needs to do. Lost fans are presumptuous — we think we know what's best. Everything we love about the show has been generated by (producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse) and their group of writers, so we should just do what we've always done: trust them and follow them and let them tell their story, while separately enjoying our own unique engagement about this show.
What are the most important questions?
At the end, there's so much, it kind of negates the whole thing. I give up — just tell me the story, and I'm going to watch it. So much of Lost, so much of the intrigue, has been generated by a clever thing they have been doing, which is withholding context from us. Our castaways have been caught up in an epic drama that has been hidden from us and them; they don't know who the grand players are and neither do we. In the slow revelation of context, mystery has been generated. Season 6 is: "This grand story we've been teasing about, here it is." We get the sense that the castaways are pawns in some great chess game, but we really don't see the board.
I've just been telling readers not to even try to figure out the ending — just enjoy the ride. Is that wrong?
The difference between me and a fan like yourself is probably mental illness or several thousand dollars worth of psychiatry (laughs). You are right — it is a futile enterprise to immerse yourself so deeply in this show if your goal is to "be right." But if your imagination has been so captured by this show, you just love thinking about it, and you find yourself daydreaming about where it could possibly go, that's a wonderful thing. It's a form of great play.
Can casual fans really appreciate the ending of this epic story?
The ultimate danger for the fan who isn't completely invested or engaged is when it does finally start pulling things together and revealing itself, will you feel lost? That's a bummer — that's where Lost may have given us so much information, the things that are revealed to be most relevant may be items people missed.
What kind of ending do you want to see?
It's stopped being about things, and started really being about characters. This island is an encounter with personal destiny — you survive it or are destroyed by it. I want them to follow that theme through. Is Jack going to get over his past? Is there any kind of happy ending for Locke? Can we hope for resurrection for a man who has been so royally screwed by the cosmos? I got hooked on the pilot (episode), became a mythology nut and now I'm a character nut. I want a show that makes me cry. I don't want a guy to step out from behind a tree and tell me what it was all about.

Steger Delivers Virginia Tech Commencement Address
Blacksburg, VA - Virginia Tech President Charles Steger delivered the commencement address to more than 5,000 graduates Friday at Lane Stadium.
This will be the only commencement address Steger will deliver as university president, having announced earlier this week he is stepping down from the position.
Steger called it a tremendous privilege to share this moment with the graduates.
"These 14 years I've had the privilege of serving as president, have really been the highlight of my career in education," said Steger. "When I sat where you are today, many years ago, I could not have foreseen the path that would bring me to this podium today."
Steger will remain on the job while the university searches for his replacement.
It's a tradition at Virginia Tech for the university president to give the commencement address at least once during his time as president. Steger did so at the encouragement of commencement officials.

The mahogany vessel has spent two years recreating Sir Francis Chichester's history-making 1967 trip.
This time the yacht was crewed by teams of disadvantaged children on its repeat 30,000-mile (48,300km) odyssey.
Thousands of people are expected to welcome the vessel back to Plymouth, to where Sir Francis also returned.
Gipsy Moth IV set off on its second lengthy voyage in September 2005 after undergoing a £300,000 refit.
Sailing challenge
The 53ft (16m) yacht had been held in dry dock in Greenwich, London, for decades until the UK Sailing Academy, based on the Isle of Wight, bought the boat for £1 and a gin and tonic.
The refurbished ketch set out from Plymouth, Devon, crewed by teams of three 16 to 23-year-olds from disadvantaged backgrounds.
The journey introduced almost 90 young people to the challenges of sailing and in May last year the yacht had to be rescued after becoming grounded on a South Pacific reef.
After returning to Plymouth, Gipsy Moth IV will travel to the Isle of Wight port of Cowes to join the UK Sailing Academy's fleet of yachts used to take young people on sailing trips.
Gun salute
Sir Francis Chichester returned to Plymouth Sound in 1967, nine months and one day after setting sail round the world.
The journey was the first true solo circumnavigation via the three Capes of Hope, Leeuwin and Horn, making only one stop.
Thousands of small boats were waiting to accompany the 65-year-old yachtsman back to port, where he was given a 10-gun salute from the Royal Artillery.
The adventurer was later knighted by the Queen with Sir Francis Drake's sword.
Gipsy Moth IV will return to Plymouth on Monday and Cowes on Sunday 3 June.

Aspects Related To The Socio-Economic Situation Of The Retired Persons In Romania
Pension's level in Romania has been a matter of passionate debates inside the political class since 1990 until today. The alarming increase in the number of pensioners, which exceeded the number of employees in the economy, linked to the economic and social development of our country, has made impossible to create a social system for older people, system able to provide a decent level for their income. Research and evaluation have displayed regular concerns in relation to the social and economic situation of the older persons and they have demonstrated that they are social category that is being subjected to the highest injustices in the market economy.

I think perhaps the primary goal here was to iterate dreams so as to stop shamefully ignoring them and offer them acknowledgment with the knowledge of never knowing.
i.e. Writing it down helps it to re-organize itself in a more constructive manner, while simultaneously offering opportunity for outside input which can be equally constructive.

Oscar Isaac: 'I've never thought of myself as an ethnic actor'
Oscar Isaac's father instilled the importance of being an individual in him from a young age.
Actor Oscar Isaac has always believed in individuality, and doesn't want to be defined by his ethnicity.
The 36-year-old was born in Guatemala to a Guatemalan mother and Cuban father, but was raised in Miami, Florida, and while his family was part of the Latin community, Oscar was taught from a young age to be his own person.
"For my father, individualism was very important, and he instilled that in me," he explained to the American edition of GQ. "It was way more important to recognise myself as an individual than as part of a group. I wasn't part of the 'Latino community.' I was just a kid in high school with friends, who was into playing music."
As he reached his teenage years, his straight edge meant Oscar avoided the drugs and alcohol many of his peers enjoyed.
"It became a badge of individuality," he said. "I was the guy that didn't drink, and it just felt good to be that."
Since becoming an actor and starring in hit movies including Ex Machina and Inside Llweyn Davis, Oscar has never felt the need to be a spokesperson for any one section of society and would just prefer to keep his head down and work hard.
"I never thought of myself as an ethnic actor," he added. "I don't feel comfortable saying I speak for Guatemalans. Or for Latin men. Or for Latin men that are five nine...."
His approach has obviously worked, as Oscar's career continues to go from strength to strength, with his next role being in the highly anticipated Star Wars sequel, The Force Awakens, and while the star is thrilled to be part of the iconic franchise, he admits the experience was hard at times.
"I actually felt the most green and insecure that I had in a long time," he confessed. "I was like, What am I doing here? There was not a lot of room to shade in the character. Every time I tried to do that, it would slow things down too much. J.J. (Abrams, director) would be like, 'Get on with it, man!' Just, 'Louder! Faster!'"

hi dvpcortez,
first, let me welcome you to our family. This is where you can find support and answers to questions. Someone is always around, and ready to be here for you.
yes, your description sounds very familiar. It seems that anything can cause a flare. I go to the dentist, and go into a flare (sometimes). It can get so frustrating, because it makes me frightened to try anything.
I went through several months with severe flank pain. My dr. sent me to a nephrologist who had tests run. My kidneys are ok, and he thinks my lupus was attacking the soft tissue around the kidney. Sounds like a crop, but from my experience over the past many years with lupus, it is probably accurate.
Yes, you need to see a rheumatologist.....Some of us have fortunately found really good ones, and others still struggle looking for that "good dr." Do not hesitate to seek another dr. if you don't feel like they are giving you the respect that you deserve.
good luck, keep us posted, and please ask any questions.....we have some incredibly knowledgeable members, and we can help you.
