Drink a ton of water to get 1 oz. of food? All in a day for a coral reef sponge. You can help discover more about these amazing animals!/
Imagine swimming on a coral reef, the water is clear and you see some stands of live coral, colorful reef fish, and, less-well-thought-of but plenty colorful and very important to coral reefs – sponges!
Sponges, can be thought of as the glue that holds the reef together, but they are important members of coral reefs for several other reasons: they filter large volumes of water, and they provide habitat to other reef animals from brittle stars and crabs to fish. They also exert a major influence over nutrient availability on the reef – meaning that they determine what nutrients are available for other reef organisms like corals. But how do they do this, and what does this mean for the health and stability of coral reefs if sponges increase or decrease in abundance in the near future?
My name is Cara Fiore and I am a postdoctoral researcher at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) in Cape Cod, MA. My postdoctoral mentor (Dr. Kujawinski), several colleagues, and myself are trying to answer these questions and we are relying on crowd-funding to obtain the necessary funds to carry out the project.
Here I want to share some more information on what we hope to accomplish and why! If you are interested in contributing to help make this project a success, please go to the website above. As a contributor, you will also be able to follow along with the project through blog updates on the project website. You can contribute to the project through January 16 2015, but you can always check it out after that too.
First, some more info on the organism of interest; sponges are sessile (mostly, some can move a few mm a day by a coordinating their cells to move in an amoeba-like manner!) filter-feeding animals that obtain food particles from the water and other nutrients that are dissolved in the water. The nutrients that are dissolved in the water are called dissolved organic matter (DOM) and this component is what we are most interested in. Sponges are very efficient at pulling food and nutrients from the water and can remove 80% of particles in the water column, but, because the water they live in is typically clear and nutrient poor, a typical sponge needs to filter a ton of water to obtain an ounce of food! Imagine drinking that much water to get an ounce of food!
Sponges are considered by most scientists to be the most ancient living group of metazoan (multicellular) animals. Sponge cells are totipotent, meaning they can become any kind of specialized cell within the sponge – they can produce spicules which are the skeleton of the sponge, or the proteinaceous fibers called spongin, or choanocytes ("collared" cells with a flagella that pump water), or cells that line the outside of the sponge or internal canals (both can engulf food particles), or gametes. Many researchers study how sponge cells coordinate with each other to form tissues or respond to stress to get a better idea of how multicellular organisms (such as ourselves!) function at a basic level!
Check out this YouTube video to see sponges pumping and what it is like to travel through a sponge as a particle in the water:
Sponges, like humans, are not comprised of just sponge cells though. Sponges have a "microbiome" that is often unique to different species of sponges. Microbial cells can be quite abundant in sponges; in fact, nearly half of the volume of a sponge is actually comprised of bacteria and other microbial cells!
The microbial community is typically considered symbiotic – here meaning that the symbionts form a relationship with the sponge that is consistent over time and geographic space, although not necessarily benefiting or harming the sponge. That said, some phototrophic symbionts do benefit the sponge by providing some of the nutrients produced from photosynthesis to the sponge.
Because sponges can filter so much water and they are highly abundant on coral reefs and they can be full of microbes that influence nutrient uptake differently, we want to see how exactly sponges and their microbes are influencing nutrient availability on coral reefs.
How Do Sponges Affect Nutrient Availability on Coral Reefs?
Both sponges and their symbionts can remove dissolved nutrients, called dissolved organic matter, from the water column. There are generally two main types of sponges: those with many microbes, called high microbial abundance sponges (HMA), and those with significantly fewer microbes, called low microbial abundance sponges (LMA).
Because both sponges and microbes can take up nutrients from the water we want to know:
- What compounds are being taken up by sponges, and does this differ between HMA and LMA sponges?
- How does the composition of organic matter in water released by the sponge after pumping (excurrent water) compare to the ambient reef water?
- Does the overall composition and concentration of nutrients in water on coral reefs reflect what sponges are removing and adding to the water (in other words: is 'reef water' different than 'non-reef water' in terms of nutrients)?
This information will give us a never before seen snapshot of how nutrients are removed and regenerated on coral reefs. This has relevant implications for managers of protected reefs as well as other coral reef scientists, because as sponges change in abundance due to disease, overfishing, or climate change, the nutrients available to other reef organisms like corals could shift dramatically by a change in sponge abundance or shift in the type of sponges that make up the community. We will be able to predict from data that we generate what types of nutrients will be available to other reef organisms if sponges increase or decrease in abundance.
In order to carry out this project, we are collaborating with Dr. Chris Freeman at the Smithsonian Marine Station in Ft. Pierce, Florida. There we will go out to a reef and collect water near sponges (ambient reef water), water coming out of a sponge (excurrent water), and water away from the reef (off reef water) – and we will do this for 3 HMA and 3 LMA sponges. Then we need to filter the water to remove all particles and microbes and we are left with the dissolved organic matter. Next we use laboratory techniques to extract and concentrate the dissolved organic matter and we can analyze this using two special instruments called mass spectrometers.
A mass spectrometer (MS) allows us to differentiate many compounds in one sample based on their mass and the time it takes for that compound to travel down a special column. From the time (called retention time) and the exact mass (up to 6 decimal places!) we have a good chance of identifying the compound. We use two approaches to characterize the organic matter using mass spectrometers. The first is a "targeted" approach, where we have a set of known standard compounds (e.g., sugars, amino acids, and nucleotides) and we can look for, and quantify, these compounds in our samples. The second is an "untargeted" approach were we collect all mass values in our sample between 100 and 1000 Daltons (up to the size of a small protein). By using both of these approaches we will be able to characterize how sponges are driving the water chemistry on a reef by seeing what compounds they remove or add to the water and find out which of these might be important in the health and survival of sponges and the overall health of the coral reef.
Threats to Coral Reefs
A recent report from the World Resources Institute found that 75% of coral reefs around the world are considered threatened and this will likely increase to 90-100% by 2030. In the Caribbean alone, coral populations have decreased by 50% since the 1970s! This is due to several factors including over-fishing or harmful fishing practices, coastal development which leads to sedimentation and high nutrient input, and thermal stress from global climate change.
Basically, these ecosystems have shifted so that algae, and in some areas, sponges have increased, while corals have decreased in population. This means that nutrient dynamics are very different from a healthy coral reef. But, there is hope, coral reefs have resilience and with the right management strategies and with help from us humans, we can shift coral reef ecosystems back to a healthy state!
There is a desire to implement ecosystem-based approaches in coral reef management set out by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA). Nutrients and environmental factors can influence microbial community composition in both corals and sponges and this can impact overall coral health. This means that better understanding nutrient dynamics on corals reefs is needed to implement ecosystem-based approaches.
A better understanding of the influence that sponges have on nutrient availability will give us a better idea of how and to what extent they can couple water column and benthic ecological processes and how this contributes to maintaining a healthy coral reef ecosystem.
We need healthy coral reefs not only because they are beautiful, but because they provide an important source of food for millions of people, and they protect coastlines from hurricanes and other storms. Coral reefs are also a source of novel medicines as well as a major reservoir of biodiversity!
Below is a video from the World Resources Institute discussion the threats to coral reefs. They focus on corals and fish, but now you know that sponges are an important part to this system too! Just think the next time you snorkel or dive on a reef you will be swimming in water that has recently passed through a sponge!
Meet the Researcher
Cara Fiore considers herself a marine microbial ecologist, with interests in how microbes influence nutrient cycling, symbiosis (specifically sponge-microbe symbiosis), microbial physiology, and coral reef ecology. Cara has also worked in biomedical research at the University of Rochester (Rochester, NY). Cara received a B.S. in biology from SUNY Cortland, and graduated from the College of Charleston (Grice Marine Lab) and the University of New Hampshire before starting a postdoc at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI). During graduate school Cara spent 10 days underwater in the Aquarius habitat, which is sits in 50 ft of water off the coast of Key Largo, FL, and is operated by NOAA and Florida International University. Currently at WHOI, Cara is investigating how microbes influence nutrient cycling in the ocean including on coral reefs.

September Production Update
Fall winds came early this year. The original V80 in Ferndale had its most productive September since it was erected in 2002, at 394,616 kWh. The new turbines our performed the original coming in at 412,000 kWh apeice. The wind farm produced some power 82% of the time.
The capacity factor came in at a respectable 33%. The turbines performed flawlessly, with 100% availability. There is quite a bit of scheduled maintenance coming in October. It will be good to get that done before the snow flies.
The productivity of northern wind farms was much greater than southern wind farms. Prince, near Sault Ste. Marie had the highest capacity factor at 36%, followed by Ferndale's 33%, Kingsbridge 28%, Amaranth 25%, and Port Burwell's 11%. I suspect that Port Burwell had some major outages, as there were times it was not producing even when winds in Port Burwell seemed to be good. Or perhaps the metering data is wrong.
Another way of measuring the productivity of a wind farm is output per square meter of swept area. This is probably a better way of measuring than capacity factor, as it neutralizes the differences in hardware (different models of wind turbines will have different production in the same wind regime, and capacity factor is a function of the generator's capacity). The wind turbines at Prince, Amaranth, and Port Burwell are all the same – GE 1.5 MW machines, which have a rotor diameter of 77m. Kingsbridge uses 1.8 MW V80's, with an 80 m rotor diameter. And Ferndale uses 1 1.8 MW V80, and 2 1.65 MW V82's. Based on this measure, Prince produced 83 KWh/m2, Ferndale produced 78, Kingsbridge was 72, Amaranth was 57, and Port Burwell was 26.
Another way of looking at it is what was the average spot price for the wind farm when it was producing, and was this below, equal, or above the average spot price for the market. If it is below average, then the wind farm is producing when the power is less needed. If it is above average, then the wind farm is producing when the power is needed. There are two average spot prices published by the IESO – the average hourly spot price, and the weighted average spot price. The weighted average gives greater weight to hours of high consumption in the province.
In September, the average spot price was 4.463 cents/kWh. The average weighted spot price is always higher, as higher demand drives higher prices. In September, the average weighted spot price was a very low 4.757 cents/kWh – the nukes were working, and demand light. The average spot price for Ferndale was 4.5887 cents/kWh – roughly between the average spot price, and the weighted average spot price. This pattern has been consistent with Ferndale since it started. It means that Ferndale's winds tend to produce a bit more when prices are higher, but it doesn't quite match the load. It would also mean that the energy from Ferndale is worth more than energy from baseload plants like nuclear that run at the same output all the time. This matching of winds with power prices is important, and should be considered by the OPA and the IESO when assessing the value of a particular wind farm to the electricity system. I haven't done this calculation for the rest of Ontario's wind farms, but I hope somebody at the OPA has done so.
If you want to do the calculations, Sygration has the production and price data for the 4 large wind farms in the province. Have fun!

Burial practices of the Final Neolithic pastoralists at
Gebel Ramlah, Western Desert of Egypt by Michał Kobusiewicz, Jacek Kabaciński, Romuald Schild, Joel D. Irish and Fred Wendorf (British Museum Studies in Ancient Egypt and Sudan 13 (2009): 147–74) PDF.
A veritable who's who of late prehistoric Egyptian archaeology! I worked with Kubusiewicz at Kom el-Hisn in 1988, my first (well, and only) season there. Hilarious guy. I also met Wendorf back in the 1990s when I was briefly into predynastic lithics.

Things looked good for an upset winner when the Nats took a 3-0 lead, but their pen eventually faltered and 3-0 became 5-3 and my dreams of upset glory and a monster week were quickly dashed. But perhaps the Nationals bullpen won't be faltering for long. The Nats pulled off one of the stranger pre-deadline deals, acquiring Mark Melancon from the Pirates – the move is odd because the Pirates are in contention, have no intention of waiving the white flag, and still envision themselves as a playoff contender. Their thought? The bullpen is still strong without Melancon, and being in a walk-year, Melancon was likely to attract offers far to high for the small-market Pirates to match. Therefore, the flipped him while they could for a quality major league reliever in Felipe Rivero and a interesting minor league prospect Taylor Hearn.
What does this move mean for the Nats? Perhaps a final end to their long-plaguing bullpen woes. Melancon's 1.80 ERA is lower than Aroldis Chapman (2.07) even though he obviously brings less sizzle and attention. At the very least, the move keeps them on pace with the Cubs in the National League arms race…

Today's Free Pick:
Colorado Rockies +185 at New York Mets -192 (Total: 7)
Chad Bettis (9-6, 5.19 ERA) vs. Noah Syndergaard (9-5, 2.45 ERA)
There are much safer and more conservative picks to end the week with than betting against Noah Syndergaard, but alas, that is where I am headed today with a big Sunday swing for the fences. Before you close the web page here, just quickly hear me out – then feel free to agree or disagree with both your thoughts and wagering…
The Rockies are ON FIRE. Like, wake up the ghosts of Matt Holiday sliding home against the Padres on FIRE. I have never mentioned them as a contender. You have never considered them as a contender. No one even knew they were still playing baseball. Yet, here they are on the final day of July, right at .500 and only a game behind the Mets in the wildcard race. The line between 'contender' and 'other guys' has been stark and easy this season in the NL, and the Rox are the first team to Red Rover their way to other side all season long.
Colorado has won five in a row and nine of their last ten. The Mets have dropped seven of ten and actually have a worse run differential this season than Colorado. The Rockies have passed the Cubs and Cards for the most runs scored in the NL. The Mets lead only lowly Atlanta.
Is Syndergaard versus Bettis in CitiField a ridiculous mismatch? Sure. Hence the nearly 2:1 odds. But considering the momentum of both teams and the face that the Mets have lost three of the last five games Syndergaard has started, it is a reasonable roll of the dice.
There is a prevailing wisdom that the Rockies stats are only gaudy because of their home stadium. Yes, they score more at home, but their road splits still dwarf the Mets, so they have the bats advantage. They are .500 overall, and only one game under .500 on the road – meaning, they aren't any better of a team when they leave home according to the record.
If there were no monetary incentive, obviously, the Mets with Syndergaard are the play. But at nearly 2 to 1 money, I'm gonna take a shot on the mojo of the Rockies lasting one more day. Something fun is brewing in Colorado right now, and even outside the Rocky Mountain air, things are clicking.

You might be wondering why we would write about a storyline that began 3+ years ago. Two reasons, the first is that Spider-Geddon is beginning in October and involves the same characters. ***MINOR SPOILERS*** Somehow the Inheritors have escaped their confinement on a decimated planet and are out for spiders again. The Inheritors were trying to kill every spider totem in all universe last time so you shouldn't expect anything but death and destruction this time around. The second reason is the new movie coming out this December, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Some of the same people in the comic book story will appear in the movie. Can you say Spider-Ham? Here's a trailer if you need some updating.
If you're a speculator, here is a list of characters from Spider-Verse and their first appearances. There have been several price increases on these books based on increased demand.
1st Appearance of Spider Gwen – Edge of the Spider-verse #2
1st Appearance of Mayday Parker, the first Spider-girl – What if (vol. 2) #105
1st Appearance of Anya Corazon, the second Spider-girl – Amazing Fantasy (vol. 2) #1
1st Appearance of Silk – Amazing Spider-man (vol. 3) #4
1st Appearance of Jessica Drew, Spider-woman – Marvel Spotlight #32
1st Appearance of Miguel O'Hara, Spiderman 2099 – Amazing Spider-man #365

This was an epic, ground shattering event when it took over 2015. Dan Slott took characters from "What If" stories, mini-series and forgotten corners of the Marvel Universe and made them interesting. This time around new characters will be introduced (according to Previews) and the hype from the movie should drive interest.

Of all the reactions to the headbutt seen around the world this one is my favorite, it's from French President Jacques Chirac (who was in attendance at today's World Cup Final).
Just so you know, Jacque, it's against the rules to walk up to another player and hit them square in the chest with your forehead with such force that it knocks them off their feet.
I'm anxious to hear the back story on the attack and why such a great player would end his fabulous career with such disrespect.
Now that Zidane is rid of the beautiful game I think he and Mike Tyson should form their own twelve-step program muslim conversion optional.
Addendum The BBC has said it best:

A growl echoed, reminding her that she was more than sure he was in his Dragon form at the moment.
Chloe gulped, debating whether to push the issue or not.
The blonde frowned, looking around her at the intrusion of a distorted and yet vaguely familiar voice. "Who was that?"
"Who was what?" Rao asked, confused.
Chloe hesitated, trying to listen for the sound once more, but she didn't hear it again, shaking her head, wondering if she was just hearing things that weren't there. Maybe it was the lack of oxygen to the brain that was messing with her head. "Nothing, I suppose." She shook her head once more, blinking in the darkness. "What do you want, Rao?"
"To give you a chance to back down without getting hurt," he replied, voice echoing all around her. "Leave Smallville now. Walk away with anyone aligned to your Darkseid bloodline and I'll let your defiance of me slide."
Chloe let out a huff of breath. "You expect me to leave my family and friends to die."
"I expect you to make the wise choice."
"The coward's choice." She hissed, voice cutting off when that grasp around her neck tightened harder at her continued defiance.
Suddenly she was dropped, the blonde falling hard to her knees to the cold ground.
"Foolish child," he scolded in disgust. "You let Zod know that there is more to that symbol on your back than either of you realize. I would pay closer attention to the scales leading down your spine than he obviously has."
Coughing, hand on her neck, Chloe raised her gaze. "What are you talking about?"
"If you wouldn't be so stubborn, if you wouldn't align yourself with the dirt beneath my claws, I would tell you." He sneered. "But since you've chosen those witches and humans, I will let you continue to stumble in the darkness, as you always have."
Chloe pushed herself to her feet. "Fine. Just as long as you're not in the darkness with me."
He snarled, the sound echoing all around her. "When I win this battle, for it will not be long enough to be a war, mark my words, you will not die, but you will suffer. You will have to be shown the error of your ways. I will kill each and every one of those you love, or even think of with remote fondness, right in front of you. I will teach you that attachments, especially to those who are below pets, is a grave weakness and a sin that must be blotted out with extreme prejudice." Something trailed heavily on the ground. "Had they not managed to hide you from me for so long, had I found you from young, raised you myself, you would have known such basic truths and not be such an ignorant child. But you have me now, and while you might fight me, I am your father, and even if by the edge of a talon and by the biting of my fangs, I will teach you what you need to know to be a Darkseid Dragon."
She sneered, moving in the direction of his voice. "I already had a father. His name was Gabriel Sullivan." She felt his displeasure like pressure pushing her backwards, but she pushed back against it, moving forwards. "He raised me with love and taught me how to be a decent human being. That's more important than anything you could ever teach me Dragon-wise."
"I should have killed him sooner," Rao snarled. "Should have made sure he suffered more."
Chloe clenched her fists, which were shaking with her fury, the blonde releasing a scream that shocked even herself, because for a second, it didn't sound completely human, almost – almost – like a roar. For a split second, her eyes had shifted, her scales emerged and her nails sharpened into claws. For a split second, the room hadn't been pitch black. For a split second, she'd been able to see a very vague outline of the Dragon she was speaking with, and the magnitude and monstrosity of its shape and size would have terrified her if she wasn't so furious right now. She moved towards the form she'd seen in the distance, the darkness back and all-consuming now that her eyes were back to human, but she didn't care, her whole body shaking with her pent-up fury, her voice a snarl as tears of anger filled those green orbs. "Gabriel Sullivan might have been human, but no matter how much power you get, or how many followers worship you, know this. He was a hundred thousand plus times the father you will ever be, and I willnever think of you as my father. Never. He was my father. You're just the asshole Dragon who killed him."
Once again, a wave of power surged forth, this time ten times more violently than before, hitting her hard and sending her flying into the wall, pinning her there, the wall and everything around her trembling in his rage as his roar shook her to her bones.
'Chlo….!' Once again, that distorted voice tried to reach out in the midst of the chaos.
Chloe fought against the power keeping her imprisoned punishingly against the wall, clutching her hand around the pendant around her neck tightly, knowing that her magic was overworked as it was and barely there, but she was desperate.
She was too tired!
Damn it!
Suddenly, she felt warmth over her hand, almost as if someone had placed their hand over hers, the blonde staring down at the appendage in confusion seconds before her pendant exploded into brilliant light, bathing the whole chamber in dazzling, burning intensity, driving Rao's conscious manifestation backwards and forcing him to let go of his hold on her as he fled from the light.
The second the blonde hit the ground, she opened her eyes and found herself staring up into the faces of her friends. Her eyes widened when she noticed two unexpected faces, the girl pushing up into a sitting position, wiping at her arms. "Jason! Davis!" Her gaze then fell to the person behind them. "Moira." She cleared her throat, accepting Mikhail's help up, gaze going to Zod quickly and noticing him eyeing the newcomers oddly before dismissing him and turning to them. "It's good to see you and – that you're okay." Her gaze went to Jason, knowing that just half an hour before, she'd told him about his father, and while she didn't want to make a scene, she couldn't stop herself from rushing towards the handsome young man and throwing her arms around his neck in a tight embrace, whispering softly into his ear, "I'm so sorry."
Jason went stiff in her embrace, hands at his side, before slowly they encircled her, holding her softly before gradually hugging her so tightly, she almost found it hard to breathe.
-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v -v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v -v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v -v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-v -v-v-v-v-
"Don't take it personally."
Oliver Queen looked away from where Chloe Balcoin was hugging Jason, obviously having told him about the death of his father, and was consoling the young man. Jason was being strong, especially considering he was in the eyes of so many people, but Oliver knew Jason very well, had known him for many years, and he could tell from the very way that Jason held onto the girl as if she were life itself, how much this meant to him.
Patricia Swan arrived at his side, gaze going to the scene as well from his perch on the roof of one of the stores. "Mercy wasn't raised to be like that."
"You lost the right to call her Mercy when you ordered her torture," he snapped.
Patty lowered her gaze and nodded. "You're right." She then turned her gaze towards Oliver. "I am sorry about your parents. And I know that deep down inside, so is Tess." Patricia looked away. "She's just a Luthor and they've been raised to shun emotions, to see them as weakness. If her family had been killed, she would be just as stoic as she was at the news of your parents' death."
"I know," Oliver admitted, but that didn't mean that it hadn't stung.
"She'll find her own way of showing it," Patty assured him, gaze still on those below, eyeing Chloe with a little smile. "John used to talk about her a lot, you know. Chloe, I mean. He kept his distance for years, the Witch Hunters had been after him and there was much that he had to do, but he had so much resting on that girl." She gave a little chuckle. "He admitted once that when he found out that Moira was going to have a daughter, that his Firstborn was going to be a girl, he nearly had a heart attack! On one hand, Balcoin Firstborn females have always been the strongest, most powerful witches in the family history. But on the other hand…"
"This whole situation," Oliver finished.
"Bingo." Patty nodded. "But you know what he told me was the reason why he'd decided not to lose too much sleep over the matter?"
Oliver didn't know exactly what sort of game Patty was playing. Before this whole thing had happened, they'd been friendly, yes. They'd grown up together and had been in a Circle together, but they hadn't exactly been friends. And then she'd had him tortured and now she wanted to be bosom buddies and share secrets? He was sure there was a catch somewhere, but until then, he was going to learn what he could, so he remained silent and merely tilted his head to the side in question.
"Because, Gabe was raising her," Patty replied, smiling at Oliver. "Gabriel Sullivan's family served the Balcoins for generations and were killed off with them as well during the Balcoin massacres. Gabriel's father raised John and Gabriel, and when he died, Gabriel was the last living member of his family. John grew up with Gabriel and said that if there was anyone who could ready her, who could teach her what she needed to know about the important things in life, it was Gabe. John would teach her the magic part when the time came. He figured that between the two of them, Rao didn't have a chance."
Oliver eyed Patty. "Now she has neither of them."
Patty flinched, the smile disappearing from her face as she looked away, gaze returning to the girl. "She mightn't have John Balcoin to teach her about dark magic and she mightn't have Gabriel Sullivan to be her human attaché, but look at her. I wouldn't say she's doing half bad considering she's, what, sixteen?"
"Seventeen." Oliver remembered Jason mentioning something about a birthday.
"She's got a town, Oliver, a town." Patty chuckled. "Even John didn't have a town at seventeen."
"She doesn't have a town." Oliver rolled his eyes. "The town is in the know. There's a difference."
"I crossed the Mayor and he was talking to some guy and wondering whether he should run some ideas by her first. The Mayor." Patty smirked. "She's got a town."
Oliver frowned, gaze going to the girl down below, who'd finally pulled away from Jason. "Don't know how long she'll have one though, if Golems are going to run the streets."
"What? Those mud babies were easily put down and obviously boosted the townspeople morale by showing that the witches have everything under control," Patty contradicted. "I heard a couple saying how they'd be stupid to ever let the witches leave, how they're safer with our kind around. They were terrified, wondering how they could have handled those 'ghastly mud things' without our magic to help them."
"They don't seem to realize that they were a distraction to get to her without any interference." Oliver frowned, eyes still on Chloe. "Her mind was hijacked."
"By him, most definitely," Patricia agreed.
"How do we know that they're not working together?" Oliver wanted to know.
"Oliver, you're not stupid." Patty made a face. "If she was working with him, she would have let him kill everyone. There was no reason to save anyone. She gained nothing but stress and a lot of needless responsibility."
He thought it over and had to admit she was right. "My parents died for this; it's personal now."
Patty sighed. "I know and I'm sorry."
"I don't need your apologies." He sent her a sideways glance. "What I need is for you to finish what you were telling me before we got interrupted. What did you mean when you said that Lex had to die?" He turned fully to face her. "Also, what did you mean when you said 'it can't be you because you're not a Luthor'. What can't be me? What else have you been keeping from us, Patricia? What did Lionel get out of the deal with the Seventh?"
Patricia licked her lips, gaze going down to where the group was dispersing, before returning to Oliver. "He brought a Half Dragon into this world that was meant to mate with that girl down there when she came of age to start the ending of this world and mankind as we know it."
Oliver's eyes widened. "What?"
"She has the potential to destroy this world," Patricia announced, staring down at the girl who was leading everyone back towards the temporary Balcoin home.
"Then she should be the one who dies, not anyone else." Oliver's eyes narrowed.
Patricia let out a dark laughter, shaking her head. "You're so narrow minded, Oliver."
He glared at her. "Were you always this patronizing, Patricia, and just put on a sweet persona to fool us into thinking you actually liked us and weren't planning our mass murder?"
She sighed, licked her lips, and then slid her gaze towards him. "I'm sorry. You don't know."
It seemed as if that was a pattern lately.
"But if am to tell you everything, I need to know that I can trust you, that you'll be my partner."
He laughed darkly. "Me? Be your partner?"
She nodded, expression grave. "Yes."
"Why would I ever team up with you?" Oliver wanted to know bitterly. "All you've ever done is lie and backstab us."
"That might be true, but this is the opportunity for you to actually know the truth." Patricia turned to face him fully once more. "For once in your life, you're not going to be Lex's subordinate, you're not going to be ruled by Tess' desires, doing whatever either of them want. If you do this, you'll know the truth behind why your parents were murdered along with so many other innocent people." Her eyes stared deeply into his as she took a step closer. "You'll finally stop being 'the subordinate', 'the boyfriend', and start being a more important character in this story."
He kept his eyes narrowed, and yet her words resounded heavily within him. "Answer me this…"
She waited with a little nod.
He cleared his throat. "Why not kill her if she has the potential to destroy us all?"
Patricia's gaze never strayed from his, her eyes determined, steely and cool. "Because she's also our only hope. John might be gone, but unlike my father, I refuse to give up hope for our kind or the mortals, especially if Chloe has chosen to fight Rao for us. As long as she's doing that, as long as she's on our side and alive, John's plan might need altering – but it might actually work." She stepped closer to Oliver, the urgency a part of her whole body. "But it will only work as long as Chloe Balcoin is alive and well, healthy and strong. If she dies, the second her heart stops beating and she takes her last breath, we're doomed."
Oliver stared down into Patricia's face, trying to detect some sort of treachery, and yet all he could see was fear and determination, and that worried him as he turned his head in time to see Chloe Balcoin and her friends' vehicles disappearing around a corner. "How can one girl be that important?"
"Join me, help me, and I will tell you everything, including things my father doesn't even know." Patricia's words had him turning his gaze back to her in shock. "Things John never trusted my father with knowing, things I never trusted my father with knowing, just in case he was secretly working for Lionel."
Oliver narrowed his eyes at Patricia. "You distrusted-? You took John's side over your father's?" And then his eyes widened as he saw the expression on the girl's face. "You were in love with John Balcoin."
Patricia looked away, clearing her throat as she sighed. "Are you in? Are you ready to do like Davis and Jason have both done and start thinking and acting for yourself, or are you just content on being the good soldier, the boyfriend?"
Oliver stared down at her, realizing just how much he didn't know, and feeling the fool for it. The blonde frowned, running long fingers through spiky blonde hair. "And I'm assuming there'll be some sort of blood oath where I'll be unable to tell anyone what I learn. Lex and Tess especially."
"No." Patricia shook her head. "I think you're smart enough to know not to do something like that all on your own without magical reinforcement."
Oliver eyed the woman thoughtfully before taking in a deep breath. "I'm going to regret this." He held his hand out between them. "You've got yourself a partner."
Patricia stared at his hand with a grateful little smile. "Thank you." And with that, she reached out and placed her hand in his, shaking it, cementing their alliance.

I have an amazing husband. I knew this. I mean, I KNOW this. But every once in a while, I have to step back and take a moment and relish in how blessed I am to have him. Usually, these moments kind of catch me off guard. This weekend was one of those times.
After another long and semi-exhausting week, Ryan insisted on a date night together. I say this like I don't appreciate and look forward to our date nights, which couldn't be any further from the truth. But, we had already had a few date nights last week and I wasn't sure I felt like doing the dinner/movie thing. I could tell something was different about this date night but couldn't put my finger on what it was. Since Ryan requested a date night several days before Saturday, I knew he had something special up his sleeve.
I have a love-hate relationship with surprises. I like to be surprised… but I'm a planner by nature. So, it's hard to let that control go and enjoy the moment, especially when there are hints that something is coming. Ryan let me know that we were going on a date night and that there was an activity planned and that I would have to do something special to prepare but no other details… and that killed me! 🙂
So, on Saturday, not knowing what was coming, I got all "dolled" up for a night out. Ryan took one look at me and let me know that though I looked great, I might want to dress a little more casual, and… a little warmer. I was stumped. Surely we couldn't be doing something outside! It was COLD!!! After the several weird questions and statements that followed ("What kind of socks are you wearing?" "You might want to bring mittens or gloves" "Bring your camera") I grew more and more intrigued, and a little freaked out! I kept saying the same thing over and over, "What are we doing?! Wait. No. Don't tell me. But…"
So, we headed out for pizza at our favorite local joint. Mmmmm! Then, started driving toward Fresno. My mind raced but I decided to just let it go and get lost in conversation with Ryan. It wasn't until we pulled up and I saw this sign that I realized what was going on…
Oh my… ICE SKATING!!!!
We had such a great time. It was such a sweet surprise. A few weeks ago, maybe even months ago, we had seen someone ice skating on TV and talked about how we both wanted to do it sometime soon. I had totally forgotten about it. But… Ryan remembered and he made it happen.

Remembering St. Joseph's | News | The Press and Standard
by The Press and Standard | October 19, 2017 5:00 am
Last Updated: October 18, 2017 at 10:16 am
Charles Williams was going through the family photos amassed by his late mother Vernice Middleton, when he came up with an idea.
Among the family photos were ones showing him and his sister Gail Williams' formative years; the years spent attending St. Joseph's Catholic Church and studying at St. Joseph's Elementary School.
With the church and school gone now, and for the most part forgotten, they decided the photos needed to be seen. "St. Joseph and its history don't exist anymore, which is really sad," he said.
Williams brought the idea of donating the photos to the Colleton Museum and Farmers Market to former director Gary Brightwell and assistant director Jill Chadwick. They gratefully accepted the donation and agreed with Williams that the photos could form the backbone of an exhibit to hopefully resurrect the memory of the former school and church.
When Brightwell retired as director, the task of transforming the donation into an exhibit fell to Chadwick.
On Oct. 16, the exhibit, "You Can Get Anywhere in Life from Here," had its grand opening.
It was the first time Williams got a chance to see the results, and he was ecstatic. His sister Gail passed away before the exhibit was completed. The original plan was to dedicate the exhibit to the memory of his mother, but it now honors his mother and sister.
Williams said the title for the exhibit spurs memories of Father John McCarthy, who started the Gruber Street school. Father McCarthy would end each weekly assembly with "You can get anywhere in life from here."
"It was imprinted on my mind — I could be anything I wanted to be," Williams said. The saying rang true "because they taught the basics and they taught it excellently. It was as good as education as you could get in the United States."
After graduating from high school, the family moved to California. Williams returned in 1978, settling in Columbia and taking a post in the Columbia City Manager's Office.
St. Joseph's on Gruber Street and St. James the Greater in Catholic Hill, Williams said, were linked. "St. James and St. Joseph were for all intents and purposes the same parish; we did everything together."
When St. Joseph's built a new school, the children who had been attending the elementary school at St. James began attending St. Joseph's.
Williams said when segregated schools ended, St. Joseph ended. Both St. James the Greater and St. Joseph became part of St. Anthony's Catholic Church. "St. James remained significant; St. Joseph just went away — all the people who did such a terrific job of educating young black kids just went away."

Cold Cold Saturday Wedding
On Saturday afternoon this sweet couple, their excited family and I battled the bitter cold to celebrate with this sweet couple. They came out of the temple with HUGE smiles and the bride went around hugging her friends and telling everyone how happy she was with such enthusiasm you couldn't help but giggle to yourself and be happy for them.
I warned the grooms siblings that any silly pictures would FOR SURE end up on the blog and I even found one from the bride and groom. Be careful friends... I WILL post silly pictures! :D

My Baby Doll
Extremely cold winds, Snow, $15.00 fee, frost bite fingers-Totally worth it!
This family was so cute! And while our kiddos still napped we were able to take a few pictures of just the couple, and they were SO EASY to shoot! They kept laughing at me and saying I tell everyone they are easy as models but I don't. They had fun, they gave me different poses and worked it for me.
By the way Jessica that portrait family picture with your doggie (that I want to steal) she is smiling! Click on it and you'll hopefully see it better.

Baby "M"
This Sunday I hooked up with the boys to have their family pictures taken and it was a nightmare to say the least. We went to this bridge and it had the coolest thing of all "ROCKS!" BAD IDEA! Logan just wanted to run around and throw rocks. LOL So I did the best I could and realized how much harder it is to take pictures of family. I hope Adam likes them though.

Thoughtful friends
Last week I was feeling a little ... well overwhelmed with work and not my cheerful self. Seeing that I am with my 3 year old or with clients every day no one really knew this. But I have some amazing friends who always "feel it" when I am not myself. I had UPS deliver this beautiful box from Artichoke and Company in SLC. How gorgeous is this?! Made my day!
Thank you Cami...
Small Sneak Previews
So I had two different clients comment on how late I've been emailing them and they felt bad that I find myself at 2 am creating Holiday cards and editing images. But I know that all photographers are working overtime to get their clients pictures done in time. :D I am happy to say I am just a few more sleepless nights away from being caught up with Holiday sessions and moving on to my two weddings I need to edit. Then a mini vacation from work stuff and working on some personal projects for Christmas. WAHOO!

Group History:
The Kegelverein was established in April 1962 with a meager capital of $188.50. The members put the first sand lane in place at the Banatar Club. After much hard work two years later a new lane was started. On February 1, 1965 everything was finished and the new building and lane were dedicated. Upon completion of the Donauschwaben German-American Cultural Center, they bowled on two lanes using refurbished Brunswick equipment that was modified by the members to handle the smaller balls. Finally, in 2010 the members had raised enough capital to install state-of-the-art Qubica-AMF machines designed specifically for them. The lanes are computer controlled with the pins being reset by a string and pulley design. The machine is similar in design to duck-pin bowling alleys found in New England and Canada.
Bowling Schedule:
The alleys are in use year-round. There are leagues on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and every other Sunday. However, during the summer months the teams bowl on Monday and Friday evenings only. All are welcome to join.

Forest Ave Outreach began in September 2012 after Ralph and Rebecca Chiodo returned to Des Moines, IA, to live as urban domestic missionaries. Combining a love for nature and sustainability practices with producing and preserving healthy food with a desire to be used by God to share His love with all people, the ministry developed.
Starting simply with a 5-week community outreach at Evelyn Davis Park in October 2012, FAO's growth exploded with the support of many wonderful friends, volunteers, organizations and lots and lots of hard work. We look forward to being part of the strengthening and growth of our community!

The Rams matched Green Bay yard-for-yard, first down-for-first down. Unfortunately for them, they didn't come close to matching Green Bay point for point, falling to 0-5 on the season Sunday.
With the Rams squandering scoring chance after scoring chance, Green Bay jumped to a 24-0 first-half lead and cruised to a 24-3 victory Sunday, staying unbeaten for the season at 6-0.
The Rams missed a field goal on their first possession of the game, and settled for a field goal on their last possession of the half after reaching the red zone. In the second half, each of the Rams' first five offensive possessions reached Green Bay territory, including advances to the Packers' 10_ and 15-yard lines. But how many points did the Rams get out of all that? Zero.
The best chance came late in the first quarter. On a first and goal from the 10, quarterback Sam Bradford badly underthrew a fade pattern in the end zone intended for Danario Alexander, with Sam Shields intercepting the pass. Later in the second half, a potential scoring drive was scuttled by a 16-yard loss when a backwards pass eluded Cadillac Willams. And midway threw the fourth quarter, a fourth-and-6 pass to tight end Lance Kendricks right at the first-down marker was dropped.
It was that kind of game and it's been that kind of season for the Rams. Missed opportunities and sloppy play have been consistent themes.
It's not as if the Packers had receivers running free all day against the Rams _ just enough to take a 24-3 halftime lead thanks to three Aaron Rodgers touchdown passes plus a Mason Crosby field goal. The Packers led by only 3-0 early in the second quarter, when Rodgers got his throwing arm warmed up on a chilly, windy day at Lambeau Field.
After a fourth-and-3 gamble by the Rams failed at the Green Bay 41 late in the first quarter, the Packers had the short field to work with. A fourth-and-1 gamble by the Packers at midfield resulted in a 15-yard gain by James Starks. Rams linebacker Brady Poppinga, the ex-Packer, slipped at the line of scrimmage, giving Starks an extra-large running lane.
On the next play, Rodgers completed a 35-yard TD pass to James Jones, with defender Justin King trailing by a couple yards on the play. It marked the fifth TD pass King has allowed in the last three games for St. Louis.
Green Bay scored on TD passes on their next two possessions. After Quinn Porter downed a Donnie Jones punt on the Green Bay 7, the Packers struck for seven on the next play. On the play, Al Harris bit on a play fake by Rodgers, leaving Jordy Nelson uncovered. Both Harris and safety Darian Stewart had chances to tackle Nelson at the Rams 40, but both missed, tripping over each other in the process.
The 93-yard touchdown was a career long throw for Rodgers and a career-long catch by Nelson, giving Green Bay a 17-0 lead with 9 minutes 11 seconds left in the first half. Before the half was out, Green Bay got back in the end zone on a seven-yard pass from Rodgers to Donald Driver. Driver was double-teamed by King and Craig Dahl at the goal line, and well covered at that. But King and Dahl both left Driver _ heading for the line of scrimmage thinking Rodgers might scramble. Rodgers didn't scramble _ he tossed the ball to a wide-open Driver with 1:51 to play, stretching Green Bay's lead to 24-3.
Going with a no-huddle offense almost exclusively, the Rams gained 222 yards in the first half, good output against any defense. But they had only three points to show for it. Jason Brown missed a 47-yard field goal attempt, wide right, on the Rams' first possession of the game. Brown made a 36-yard field goal with 3 seconds left in the second quarter.
* * *
Mike Sims-Walker, who was signed in free agency almost immediately after the lockout to give the Rams help at wide receiver, was among the pregame inactives for St. Louis on Sunday.
Sims-Walker, who had a couple of drops against Washington prior to the bye week, was working with the "scout" team by the end of the practice week, running the routes of Green Bay receivers for the Rams' starting defense.
The Rams are expected to start Brandon Gibson and Danario Alexander at wide receiver against Green Bay.
There were other lineup/inactive developments as well. Veteran Ben Leber, who started the first four games at weakside linebacker, was inactive. The former Minnesota Viking had done little so far this season, and is expected to be replaced in the starting lineup by Chris Chamberlain.
Veteran Rod Hood also was inactive, meaning street free agent Brian Jackson _ added at the start of the practice week _ will join Justin King, Al Harris, and Josh Gordy as the four active cornerbacks against Green Bay's potent passing game. King and Harris will start, with Gordy the third corner in the Rams' nickel and dime packages.
For the second game in a row, running back Jerious Norwood is on the inactive list. As a result, RB Quinn Porter is likely to return kickoffs, with potential help from Austin Pettis. With newly-signed WR/return man Nick Miller on the pregame inactive list, Pettis, Porter and Greg Salas are all options on punt returns.
The Rams' other inactives Sunday were TE Stephen Spach and DE C.J. Ah You. The roster decisions mean that rookie wideouts Pettis and Salas are both active for the first time this season. In addition, rookie linebacker Jabara Williams makes his NFL debut for St. Louis.

By Todd Cohen
In Moby Dick, Herman Melville's 1851 novel about a whaling ship, a vital piece of gear was the "monkey rope" – a kind of safety cord that tied a harpooner straddling a dead whale to an oarsman in the harpooner's boat.
One hundred fifty years later, reminded by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that we are indeed intertwined, Americans have joined hands to lift up victims of the attacks.
While that's only a short-term fix to an immediate crisis, however, the lessons of the past five weeks also can help shape long-term solutions to the huge social ills troubling America.
The key is collaboration.
In his recent study of the social networks in three-dozen U.S. cities, Harvard scholar Robert Putnam found Americans drifting apart from one another.
Our civic connectedness – what Putnam calls "social capital" – is eroding. We don't trust one another. We stick to our own kind and the institutions we know. We are religious and generous, but we take few risks.
But if we are going to solve the problems facing America, we have to learn to stick our necks out for one another.
We need to find ways to work together more closely, to build on networks we already have created, to connect groups that operate in isolation or are separated by race or class.
In the world of philanthropy and nonprofits, individual groups can team up, pool their limited resources, share ideas and know-how, and have a greater impact than they would have had working alone.
In Massachusetts, for example, a group of executive directors have learned how their nonprofits can make better use of technology – and how they can lead their own organizations in embracing technology – through a leadership development program that connects the executive directors to one another and to their own staffs.
In North Carolina, a handful of private, community and corporate foundations are looking for ways to work together by sharing information, teaming up to talk about common problems facing the state and pooling funds to have greater impact.
And to encourage local collaboration to address local problems, national foundations are working together to create funding pools that match funds contributed by state and regional foundations.
These are not isolated examples, but they are not commonplace, either.
Innovation has been a hallmark of American philanthropy, which itself serves both as our social safety net and society's research-and-development arm.
That innovation has been possible in large part because philanthropy is independent.
But as the social problems we face — poverty, racism, violence, poor health, illiteracy – grow more interconnected and seemingly unsolvable, we need to find innovative ways to put our heads and shoulders together.
Doing business in the philanthropic and nonprofit worlds need to be based on teamwork, thinking and working as independent members of the same crew.

The Captain's room is made in honor of river boat Captain Harvey Weston who built the house in 1880. When you wake up in the Captain's room, you see the sort of room that typified that time period (with one major exception, no use of the chamber pot!)
The room is bright and airy and has ample drawer and closet space for extended stays. It is next to the "Pinkie" bathroom.

Streaming Tennis for Free
Here's a guide on how you can live stream the best Wimbledon tennis action for free anywhere in the world.
21:41 07 July 2018
Wimbledon 2018, which is probably the world's famous tournament, is finally here. Some say its civilised nature is a welcome antidote to the World Cup football, with this year's tournament looking like one of the most open for years on both the gentlemen's and ladies' sides of the draw.
If you're in the UK, you can live stream Wimbledon for free. BBC will broadcast the games until July 15 so you can catch up with pretty much every match of the tournament on the TV, radio and even the BBC Sport website with further coverage on Red Button, BBC iPlayer, the iPlayer mobile app and connected TVs.
If you're watching from outside the UK, you can live stream the games with a VPN, which allows you to change your IP address so you appear to be in the United Kingdom. Based on recent tests, Express VPN is currently the best option available. It comes with a 30-day money back guarantee and allows you to watch on many devices including smart TVs, PC, Mac, Fire TV stick, iPhone, Android phones, tablets and iPads.

Sword and scabbard circa 1870 - 1875
Watered steel, gold, diamonds, rubies, pearls and velvet covered wood | 100.5 x 15.7 x 3.0 cm (excluding loop, tassel etc.) | RCIN 11413
The rulers of Khairpur were great collectors of blades and would send agents to obtain them from Iran. These would then be fitted with new hilts such as this example. The scabbard mounts and hilt, ornamented with incised decoration, was probably made by a European craftsman working in the subcontinent.

Today may be a hard day,
This morning an amplifier made some problems, we were able to fix it. After close to 1 million QSO it may happen.
More difficult is the presence of more african DXpeditions this week, we have issues with finding a clear frequency for calling and listening split. The worst is 12m, where the band is very small.
We also see that FT8 DXpedition mode is understood by most, and shows it was the right choice even it's still in beta status.
We still have 2 days of pile-up for you.

text: A new study has found that between sixty and ninety percent of the water is frozen in the huge ice sheets of Antarctica, but its melting pace is increasing rapidly, a phenomenon that could raise the world's sea levels alarmingly. The melting rate at which Antarctica is losing its ice cover has more than doubled since 2012, according to the latest study published in the journal Nature. The melting could contribute to six inches (15 centimeters) to sea level rise by the year 2100. Reportedly, this level is at the upper end of what the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has estimated Antarctica alone could contribute to sea level rise this century. Notably, between 1992 and 2017, Antarctica lost three trillion tons of ice. This level has lead to an increase in sea levels by three-tenths of an inch, but the concern is that forty percent of that increase actually came from the last five years of the period of study (2012-2017). Earlier in December 2017, another report in Nature stated that the Eastern Antarctica ice sheet, which is one of the two large ice sheets in Antarctica and the largest on the entire planet, may contribute substantially to global sea level rise, the study found. The Eastern Antarctica ice sheet, with more than twelve thousands feet thick ice in many places, was thought to be among the most stable, not gaining or losing mass even as ice sheets in West Antarctica and Greenland were shrinking. That study also said that the team deployed marine seismic technology from the back of an icebreaker near Antarctica\u2019s Sabrina Coast. The equipment captured images of the seafloor, including geological formations created by the ice sheet, allowing scientists to reconstruct how glaciers in the area have advanced and retreated over the past fifty million years. The findings showed that the ice sheet had a long history of expanding and shrinking. The study, based on the first-ever oceanographic survey of East Antarctica\u2019s Sabrina Coast \u2013 revealed that the glaciers in the region might be particularly susceptible to climate change, the Indian Express reported. Meanwhile, in the Paris Agreement, 195 member states of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change agreed to limit the rise in global average temperature to significantly below two degrees Celsius.

Quite a nice surprise when I opened the package. Not only did I receive the gelt I ordered, but lovely little silver metal dreidels as well, which kept the children entertained until the feast was ready to be devoured. The package also came with individually wrapped gelt and adorable little boxed to put them in as well.
The candy was delicious. A very rich, deep strong chocolate that melts in your mouth. Is there a law somewhere where I can only buy this candy for my husband at Chanukkah? I would like to enjoy it all year long!
An excellent candy!!!!
Did you know? Facts about Jewish tradition:
Dreidels are four-sided spin tops. Dreidel Game has been around for a few hundred years and is played during the 8 days of Hanukkah. The word Dreidel comes from Yiddish word "dreyen" - "to turn". In Israel dreidels are called "sevivon", Hebrew word comes from the root "sbb" - "to turn".
However, if you are in this section of our website you probably know all about dreidels. This is our wholesale department and you are in the right place to buy discount packs of dreidels. If you are planning a big Hanukkah party or a project and need hundreds or even thousands of dreidels - wooden, gold dreidels, silver dreidels, fillable etc - we'll send them to you! Let us know if you cannot find what you are looking for, we'll be happy to help.
We'll make your Chanukah event planning easy and fun, so all
you will have to do is sing with us!
I have a little dreidel. I made it out of clay.
When it's dry and ready, then dreidel I shall play.
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay.
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, then dreidel I shall play.
My dreidel's always playful. It loves to dance and spin.
A happy game of dreidel, come play now let's begin.
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, it loves to dance and spin.
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel. Come play now let's begin.
When you have you draydels your need some tokens for the game. It is always more fun to have Hanukkah gelt instead of real money. Complete your Hanukkah experience with our chocolate coins and your celebration will turn out to be a great success!

Яппаньки вам,уважаем(ый)(ая)(ое)!
turned his attention to the casino, accessing those cameras. There, in safety and luxury, Londo gambled and drank, as was his habit. "Wait thirty minutes," Elric said to Carvin. "Then go."
Carvin sucked her lips in nervously, nodded.
"All is according to plan," he said. "They will believe we have sent you in a desperate attempt to secure another transport, another misdirection. You are prepared?"
With a quick flick of her hand she produced an ace of diamonds between index and middle fingers. On her index finger she wore the signet ring engraved with the rune for solidarity.
Elric smiled. "You will do well."
Carvin's grin lit up her face. With a flourish of her hand the card vanished. She hurried off.
In his mind's eye he visualized a blank message screen. Begin. He imagined the message being broken into bits of information, traveling through the air to Fed, reassembling itself.
Fed would steer Vir toward them now. The extra hour the Shadows had taken meant that Vir had made a few extra trips around Down Below, but he would arrive only a bit worse for the wear.
Elric looked up at Ing-Radi. "I will take care of John Sheridan. I had planned to meet him, in any case."
"If I may. You must first take care of yourself. Else our task will not succeed."
She reached toward him, and he stepped back. It was her nature to heal where she saw hurt, as she had always done. Yet now she had no organelles to spare. She needed all her healing powers for herself.
He straightened, trying to hide his fatigue. "I am well enough. In two more days, we will have eternity to rest."
"It is not yet your time. That element of your plan is flawed. You must save yourself for the mages. And for Galen. He still needs you."
Elric pushed thoughts of Galen from his mind.

This book is about a ship that finds a stone on an island. The stone has a flat screen that glows. The sailors forget everything else they are doing while they are watching it. Only reading books will save them. As you read, it's your job to find out what the stone really is.
I liked how you have to figure out what the stone is. I also liked when the men turned into monkeys. That was funny.
