Jianghehai Stainless Steel in Jiangsu province the next 2017 years the development of stainless steel company, with the rapid growth of the national economy, urban housing, public buildings and tourism facilities to build a large number of hot water supply and living water supply put forward new requirements. Especially the water quality problem, people pay more and more attention, the request also unceasingly enhances. It is reported that galvanized steel pipe this commonly used pipe because of its easy to corrode, under the influence of the relevant national policies, will slowly withdraw from the historical stage, stainless steel pipe, plastic pipe and composite tube gradually become pipe system common pipe.
Among them, the stainless steel pipe safety and reliability, health and environmental protection, economic application, thin-walled pipeline and simple and convenient connection with the development of new technologies, so that it has other advantages of the pipe can not be replaced, home improvement and engineering applications will be more and more, the use of the 2017 stainless steel pipe industry prospects
It is understood that the domestic production in the late 1990s, the use of stainless steel pipe, is the current pipe field of budding new family, has been widely used in building water supply and straight water pipeline. Stainless steel tube Durability, has been recognized by the engineering sector. The Ministry of Construction and related departments also attaches great importance to this new type of pipe, according to the China Technology Market Management Promotion Center documents show that the application of stainless steel pipe to improve the level of modern architecture, improve and ensure water quality is of great significance. So, 2017 stainless steel tube industry has what development positive trend?
Large demand for construction water supply pipeline
According to Jiangsu Jianghehai reported that the "XV" period of China's housing decoration production value of 20% per annum increasing speed. In the next 10 years, at least the completed residential area of 200 million square meters each year, there are decoration needs of the housing up to more than 90 million sets. The annual demand for tubing is $number million km, where the demand for hot and cold water pipes in residential buildings is 600,000 km. Some experts believe that the development of stainless steel pipe, to improve the quality of modern urban construction significance, stainless steel pipe will be a great use. Therefore, the 2017 stainless steel pipe industry has a huge space for development.
1, the pipeline straight water development rapid
With the development of the national economy, the pipeline straight water in the domestic Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Chongqing and other cities to develop rapidly, the economically developed medium-sized cities are also active planning straight up. In straight drinking water, stainless steel tube is undoubtedly the leading. At present, the domestic high-grade hotels, public places have been configured or in the configuration of direct drinking water pipeline.
2. The future of domestic substitution import is broad
Jiangsu Jianghehai that in order to promote the stainless steel pipe, China from the the 1990s since the reduction of wall thickness, reduce costs, to solve the "high-diameter wall ratio precision" of thin-walled stainless steel pipe technical problems, so that stainless steel pipe has been widely used and developed rapidly. One kind of pipeline must be able to popularize fully, cannot be localized. At present, a part of the domestic manufacturers have the production and further development of thin-walled stainless steel pipe and pipe capacity,
3, is the domestic stainless steel pipe production field leader.
Stainless Steel pipe Connection technical innovation, installation costs fall significantly
The difficulty of installation, high installation cost, long time, has been a stumbling block for the popularization and application of stainless steel pipe. 2017, however, will usher in a year of ice-breaker solutions to this conundrum. Because of technological innovation, the installation of stainless steel pipe difficulty and cost are greatly reduced, no need to cut pipe, remove Burr, draw line, card pressure and other installation steps. You can complete the installation with one Plug and no installation tool. This new technology or stainless steel pipe into the home improvement market turning point.

The Angels can't afford any slip ups right now as they cling to their last breath of playoff life, yet they slipped up at the worst time. Taylor Featherston couldn't maintain his balance when changing direction on what should've been an easy groundball. Instead, he not only failed to field the ball cleanly, he failed to even touch the ball. It bounced right passed him, allowing Texas to put a man on third to score the eventual go-ahead run. That tiny misplay cost the Angels the game and took a huge bite out of their chances of making the playoffs. They're still barely alive, but they can't afford any other slip ups like that one.
Rangers 2, Angels 1
Run Expectancy Rundown
C.J. Cron drove in all of the Angels runs for the second game in a row, only this time that wasn't a good thing. With three hits and just two walks on the day, this was a pretty disheartening performance from a lineup that had shown flashes of turning things around. NOPE.
Rougned Odor drove in the winning run with a sac fly but had the lowest RE24 for the Rangers because apparently RE24 is trolling Angels fans. Texas had their opportunities but did an Angels impersonation whilst batting with runners in scoring position.
Starting Pitcher Scores
After the first inning, it looked like Jered Weaver was going to be in for another rough night, but he managed to pull it together. Derek Holland never had a rough innings, so he just kept it together over eight dominant innings.
Bullpen Battle
Joe Smith gets the goat horns here, but really, it wasn't all his fault as his defense let him down. It was disappointing that he couldn't get a grounder out of Odor when he needed it, but he never really should've been in that position.
Game Flow
The Angels avoided letting this game get ugly a couple of times, but otherwise I see no evidence of this team putting up much of a fight at any point, despite the importance of the game.
Halo A-Hole
You could've at least knocked the ball down, Taylor. If you aren't going to field, what good are you?

One of my favorite products at Bits of Lace is the Chantelle Basic (otherwise known as the 3261). This T-shirt bra is a stand-out in shape, support and functionality.
The Chantelle Basic has long, multi-positional straps that can suit any style. Simply unhook the straps from the back of the band (they remain securely attached to the cups) and criss-cross them for a racerback look or move them a bit further in or out on the multiple cloth hooks to allow for a narrow or wide shoulder stance.
The smooth cup and contoured design allow for a seamless, natural look under any material and the round, lifted cup provides great support, for A-G cups.
Lace and Love,

So the Telecom men have been. They promise me they have fixed the problem, but just in case it happens again they've very conveniently blamed it on damp under the house. Because then it's not Telecom's fault, obviously.
Anyhoo, to stop myself from going completely bonkers I have painted my nails. A lot. So I have lots of swatches for you. And also a dog. Just because.
First up, Color Club Rev'd Up:
I'm impressed with the Color Club polishes - good application and super-fast drying time. I think this was three coats, I can't remember (there's been so many polishes people, so very many). It's a nice colour, it doesn't blow me away probably because there's a lot of sparkly purply/pinks out there similar, but it's pretty.
Speaking of pretty, look at the paw!
Next, Max Factor Nailfinity Golden Peach:
Quite sheer, could have gone for four coats with this, but three was ok. Good application but like a few metallics I've used it reacted with Seche Vite top coat (just on one nail) and went gluggy. A very pretty muted gold colour but I'm not sure it suits my skin colour, and it's a little 'safe' for my liking.
13 Year Old Daughter asked for white nails with black polka dots, so I got to try out my new dotting tool.
That's Color Club Paris White with dots in China Glaze Urban Attitude. Yet another fabulous Color Club polish, Paris White applied really well which I didn't expect after past experience with whites. It's a really lovely pure white that reminds me of house paint (in a good way). Three coats because there was a little bit of streaking but again dried super fast.
This was my first time using the dotting tool, and I'm quite pleased with the result. Best tip, which I read on a blog whose name I have now forgotten, make a little dish out of tinfoil and pour just a small amount of polish into it (I actually dropped it off the brush rather than pouring), then dip your dotting tool into that. Also, don't load the dotting tool with too much nail polish (that one comes from my own experience!).
Then I decided to do a little nail art on myself, so I broke out the painter's tape.
The polishes were Color Club Paris White, China Glaze Nail Art Ink and Pinnacle Quicksilver.
I started with a base of Pinnacle Quicksilver - nice application, a lot of brushstrokes though but a very nice bluish-silver. Then I taped off a diagonal across my tips and used Color Club Paris White, and finished with the China Glaze Ink. I'm quite pleased with the result given it's the first time I've attempted anything with a nail art brush. Another tip, from another blog I can't remember the name of: when painting a straight line with a nail art brush place the brush on the nail and then move the nail under the brush rather than the brush over the nail. I had a few thin lines and a few thick lines but that's just practice.
And finally, I've saved the best for last. O.P.I. Suzi Says Da!:
Brown polish can be hit or miss, it's so often either too 'old lady' or just plain unattractive. But this one. OH. MY. GOD! Seriously, while I was applying it I had to stop myself from sticking out my tongue and licking it. Two words: Melted. Chocolate. I cannot stop staring at my nails, this colour is so very beautiful, and what a gorgeous smooth shiny finish. This was three coats, and looking at the pictures it could have been four because I can see some semi-bald patches near my cuticles but that's no biggie when the colour is this beautiful. This one goes in my favourites list, I love it!

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Gains in shares of Gateway and Sun Microsystems helped power the hardware sector Friday, coming at the close of a topsy-turvy trading week for the group.
The Goldman Sachs Computer Hardware Index $GHA which monitors the stock movement of PC makers, storage providers and other hardware manufacturers, was higher by 3.8 percent.
Gateway GTW stock moved up by 75 cents to $19.50. The PC maker is on the move again, this time moving its headquarters from San Diego to a Poway, Calif., outside of San Diego. Gateway first got its start in South Dakota. See related story.

The 5 Most Amazing Celebrity Walk-In Closets
Ever wondered what's inside the walk-in closets of some of the most famous celebrities? Well we're here to give you a glimpse inside the closets of Paula Abdul, Mariah Carey, Nicky Hilton, Kim Kardashian and Victoria Beckham.
Paula Abdul
She is an American songwriter, dancer, singer and choreographer who is well known for being a judge on the first season of the American version of the X Factor. The star owns a house in San Francisco with a walk-in closet that is filled with a wide array of exquisite clothing alternatives and accessories, so numerous in fact that she had to resort to numbering each and every item.
Mariah Carrey
Her love for shoes is no secret. Her spacious walk-in closet measures a total of 12,000 square feet and includes approximately 1,000 pairs of shoes. Moreover, the closet is gorgeously decorated with chandeliers and exquisite golden details, complemented by high-end furnishings such as royal chairs. Mariah's clothing items and shoes are arranged quite efficiently by color and fabric.
Nicky Hilton
She is the proud owner of two amazing walk-in closets, both being packed with a huge amount of clothes and accessories. All pieces are arranged according to designer, which definitely must make it easier to keep track of them all.
Kim Kardashian
She reportedly owns over 100 pairs of shoes signed by the famed Christian Louboutin. These shoes have a special spot reserved in her walk-in closet, where they sit next to her large collection of bags. Her other clothes are being kept in another large bedroom closet.
Victoria Beckham
She is by far the owner of the most impressive celebrity walk-in closets. Her closet is packed with a wide array of fabulous clothing alternatives but also with state-of-the art technologies such as a 360-degree camera and a computer that tells her how many times she has worn a specific clothing piece. In addition, her gorgeous closet is decorated with a lavish Baccarat crystal chandelier for a plus of fine taste and opulence. Sources say that Victoria's clothing collection is so vast that she has to store it in multiple rooms, which comes as no surprise since she is actually a fashion designer herself.

XX is a new horror anthology with a gender twist - all segments will be helmed by female directors and will star female leads. The directors have been given free creative rein within budget and time constraints, but all of the segments themselves will involve the horror genre.
Genre : Horror
Country : USA/Canada
Cast :
Natalie Brown : Susan ("The Box")
Melanie Lynskey : Mary ("The Birthday party")
Breeda Wool : Gretchen ("Don't fall")
Christina Kirk : Cora ("Her only living Son")
Director :
Jovanka Vuckovic : "The Box"
Annie Clark : "The Birthday Party"
Roxanne Benjamin : "Don't Fall"
Karyn Kusama :
"Her only living Son"
My opinion
"Are you taking any of this seriously?
Of course I am. I'm their mother."
" is an anthology labeled as horror, but it isn't really terrifying. There is no real connection between the four stories. At first, I thought it was always about a mother figure with the day-to-day problems and family situations. But the third story came with a very different theme. After that I assumed it was perhaps because a female character played the main role in every story. But afterwards, the short content on IMDb made it clear that it was about four short stories written and directed by women. Well, I wasn't too far off.
The most fascinating and in a way terrifying story, wasn't saved as an apotheosis this time. The first story "
The Box
" is really the most creepy story and the only one with a fairly gore scene in it. A shocking story with the refusal to use necessary meals as the central topic. And no, it wasn't the cannibalistic feast that confused a bit. Or that distressing feeling that creeps over you when you think that your own children could be in a similar situation. For me, the final images of emaciated bodies touched me. I was just wondering how they could have accomplished this technically. And of course there's the ultimate question: what the hell was in that box?
The Birtday Party
" resembled more a slapstick. Gradually I got this feeling that I was watching a movie from the old days. A kind of "Where-can-I-hide-the-body" game. It made me laugh instead of making me scared. A Hitchcockian story that featured itself as a stage-play. Actually, this is the only story that's not really classifiable as horror. It rather shows how an individual experiences an embarrassing situation.
Do not fall
" falls within the category "Familiar horror subject", where a collection of petroglyphs are the cause that a number of youngsters end up in a staggering nightmare. Their camping trip somewhere in a desert doesn't evolve like they expected. The final story "
Her only living son
" is the most diabolical story. It's more like a "
Rosemary's Baby
" story, but this time the mother flees with her son and tries to influence his destiny. A growing motherly instinct just to protect her only son from ultimate evil.
Perhaps the fact that these four short stories are produced by women, makes that they aren't very creepy. They are more of a demonstration of maternal fear when it comes to their growing kids. Isn't it so that every mother wants their loving daughter to have a magnificent birthday party? And that at all costs. And are there mothers who don't have nightmares about their children becoming anorexic or their sons turning their backs on them because of a harmful influence? This has been incorporated in these short stories (besides "
Don't fall
"). The biggest frustration in each of the four stories is the lack of explanation. At the end of each story, one stays with some pertinent questions. Indeed, what was in that box? Did David commit suicide in "
The Birtday Party
"? Who drew those petroglyphs and what was the meaning? Even the stop-motion film in between the short stories, was quite confusing.
It wasn't highly original. It was very interesting though. Technically it looked really superb sometimes. The still-life pictures of cooked meals in "
The box
". The successful transformation in "
Don't fall
" given the limited budget. The gloomy and melancholic mood in "
The Birtday Party
" and the cruelty in "
Her only living son
". I only had this feeling that the stories contained much more content than they could show in such a short film. In short, the time span confined the brilliancy of these movies in a way.
My rating 5/10

Yes, you read that right.
I spent some time yesterday building up a QR code with my contact information: name; email address; Twitter handle; website URL.
In all actuality, that took very little time. What took awhile was inserting my logo into it. You see, while I may have some skill in editing photos in Photoshop, graphics are something I could invest a little more time with. After all, I was dieing to insert my shiny, new logo onto it. With that said, I guess I just didn't want to stop until it was just right.
But, why a QR code? Their time has passed, hasn't it?
I don't know about that. You see, NFC (near field communication) was supposed to supplant it as our go-to means of exchanging information, but with its security coming into question, and Google killing off Bump, NFC isn't the fair-haired boy we thought it once was. On the other hand, renowned security expert Steve Gibson recently proposed an open standard for secure Website login and authentication known as SQRL (Secure QR Login or "squirrel"). Earning immediate interest from the likes of Google, the W3C, and security enthusiasts around the world, the technology is on the fast track for standardization. If that happens, then QR code readers once again will populate the land, and my QR code won't seem so silly anymore.
Anyhow, I'm finished with my latest creation, and off to continue working on my photos, for awhile.
- Cheers!

MEDIA RELEASE: The inaugural 24 Hours of LeMons Australia event, which wrapped up at Wakefield Park today, has been hailed a great success, with almost $13,000 raised for prostate cancer research thanks to the generous support of the participants.
The event pitted teams, each with up to six drivers, against each other in a marathon endurance trial over two eight-hour days; teams were only allowed to spend a maximum of $1,000 on the purchase of their cars.
The lap charts fluctuated significantly over the two days, with a number of different teams spending time in the lead, but in the end it was experienced racers David Raddatz, Nathan Jess, Nick Cancian, Daniel Byron and Harry Hayek who took the win in their Team Matar MX5 Mazda 3, completing a total of 641 laps – 1,410 kilometres – in their 16 hours on the track.
Raddatz and Jess have already tasted success in endurance racing at Wakefield Park – both are winners of the Wakefield 300 endurance race – but Raddatz said today's victory was particularly sweet.
"This is awesome, this is about six 300s in one," Raddatz said.
"The little Mazda 3 went awesomely all day; we had a couple of long pit stops to change brake pads but we were able to pick up the laps we lost, and we hit the lead.
"The car only cost us about $300 and it just kept going."
Second place went to the Ravage Raceworks Ford EL of Dean Lillie, Craig Piergrosse, Andrew Scott, Michael Wilson, Paul Joseph and Rick Newman. They held a commanding advantage after Day 1, holding an eight lap lead, but an exhaust problem early in today's running cost them a number of laps in the pits.
After a consistent and reliable performance throughout both days, the Fanatstic Five Hyundai Excel of Dean Chapman, David Bailey, Keith Cronin, Chris Vrontas and Steve Molloy finished third overall.
Throughout the event, a number of drivers received penalties for indiscretions; rather than the stop-go or drive-through penalties typically applied in other forms of
motorsport, competitors had to take part in challenges such as shooting basketball goals, solving a rubix cube or apologising in pit lane with a megaphone.
Drivers' penalties were often reduced if they donated to charity.
In the end, a total of $12,890 was raised for prostate cancer research. The LeMons organisers have plans to improve upon the event for 2016, with announcements expected shortly.

Want to prepare some mouthwatering dishes with yogurt but unable to make the perfect one? This is where a yogurt maker can prove to be your best friend. Although yogurt can be prepared without using such an appliance, however, if you are a frequent consumer of yogurt having such an appliance at home would help you prepare the perfect yogurt at the perfect temperature. Having delicacies like Chobani and Yoplait at lesser costs would be much easy with a yogurt maker at home. People on a diet also buy yogurt maker to follow strict diet plans. This wonder machine would enable you to prepare yogurt in bulk in a hassle-free manner which otherwise is a very difficult task.
With a variety of options available in the market, it becomes a very daunting task for any homemaker to be able to choose the best one suitable for their needs. One should look at best yogurt maker reviews and guides to be able to choose best one.
Capacity: A yogurt maker with a number of jars of different capacity is always a better choice over the one having only a single jar. This feature allows you to prepare yogurt of different flavors all at once. If you require bulk yogurt every day then multiple jars of different capacity would prove to be very beneficial.
Heating: To be able to prepare a perfect yogurt it is very important to maintain the correct temperature to enable the bacteria to survive for better fermentation. Low levels of heat would not let the fermentation happen and high temperatures would kill the bacteria. Thus, one should buy a yogurt maker which has good heating features to get the perfect yogurt.
Pricing: It is always advisable to invest money in buying a good yogurt maker which is fully automatic so that you do not have to bear the brunt of having to switch it off manually every time. The LED displays on good yogurt makers also help you to know when the yogurt is ready. Any appliance between 40 dollars to 60 dollars is fully automatic and proves to be good for any household. Appliances falling in the range more than 60 dollars are generally multipurpose ones which have additional features, like ice-cream making facilities and many others.
Thermostat: Since the yogurt maker is mainly used to maintain a suitable temperature to enable the bacteria to survive, thus having an efficient and reliable thermostat is very important to be able to prepare the best yogurt.
Dishwasher safe: Since yogurt is made from milk the lids and jars of the makers are ought to get dirty. Thus make sure that the maker you are buying is dishwasher safe so that you can clean it easily.
Warranty: Most of the good appliances come with a warranty of 1-3 years. So make sure you buy a maker having the warranty of at least 1 year as heating issues might occur in these types of appliances.
Thus, if you are planning to buy a yogurt maker for your house then definitely look for these features to be able to buy the best one.

"The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent." (Exodus 14:14)
"Do not fear or be dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours but God's." (2 Chronicles 20:15b)
"For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in his steps, who committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in his mouth; and while being reviled, he did not revile in return; while suffering, he uttered no threats, but kept entrusting himself to him who judges righteously." (1 Peter 2:21-23)
I woke up one morning with these first two verses in my mind while trying to remember exactly where the passage from Peter was found. It was as if God tied all of these together for me in a nice little bow.
The Bible I have been using for the last year or more is the New American Standard. While I really like the translation it doesn't have any notes or references in it. In one way that's good because it forces me to remember things rather than rely on the references. This time I simply couldn't find where the passage in Peter was located so I was forced to give in and use Google. I tell you no matter what you think about computers they are magnificent when it comes to locating passages in the Bible. Let's move on to my point.
Most people have had moments when they find themselves in a situation where they think about taking matters into their own hands. Sometimes you might see a co-worker and think they shouldn't be doing that or why aren't they doing such and such. Other times you might think; why are they getting away with that? Sometimes it may even be someone accusing us of something we haven't done. Then the temptation is to justify ourselves to them or prove them wrong. This is when God is telling us "The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent."
God wants us to put our faith in him to take care of us but that usually takes longer than we want it to. This of course is part of God's plan because this is the way he shapes us. After all it is through trouble and irritation that we learn obedience and patience. Without someone providing the agitation we could never learn these valuable lessons. From our perspective we're thinking "Why is this happening?" From God's view it's "How else can I get you to learn to trust me?"
Jesus Christ endured the most intense suffering of anyone. Think about it for a minute. Jesus, the Son of God, quietly put his trust in the father when he had the authority and power to put a stop to his mistreatment any time he wanted. This is the ultimate example for us. Sometimes faith in God is simply trusting that he sees everything and believing he will right all wrongs one day. It may not happen as quickly as we want but it will happen!

Favorite Music Sites
So I have a lot of people ask me, how I'm always finding new music? There are a lot of different avenues. Word of mouth, live shows, spots in a tv show or movie or even sometimes reading about a band. But in todays world internet is always the easiest way to discover new music. Yes, there are a ton of these sites out there and sometimes their opinions are way off and sometimes biased. Some of my favorite sites usually go along with my own music tastes and what my friends call my "music snob" opinions.
http://pitchfork.com – Pitchfork is one of those sites that I go to first. They have a lot of great underground musicians and a lot of other music related topics.
http://www.stereogum.com – Sterogum to me feels like a site that gathers info from a lot of other sites and artist blogs and Facebook and band sites. But it's a pretty great one stop site. Sterogum does share a lot of the same posting that pitchfork does. But they have great lists and breakdowns of the year, season, decade etc.
http://www.undertheradarmag.com – Under the Radar is a site that is also a magazine. The magazine is how I originally cam across this site. The site is set up more like an actual magazine with interviews artist and up and coming bands. I really the writing on this site and find it to be informative. But again you have to check out the band to find out for yourself.
https://www.spotify.com/us/ – Spotify is my favorite site to go to listen to new music. The great thing about Spotify is that you can listen to whole albums. Unlike Pandora you aren't just constantly on a shuffle. But for the most part they are always current with newly released albums, even crazy obscure stuff. They also usually have good suggestions for new music based on what you previously listened to.
Give these sites a look and let me now if there are any you think are better.

"the catcher and the rye was a good book lots of twists a good read but they quit printing it i think"
"I am just do not like those kind of books. If I did like those kinds of books than I would love that book, but I like the fantasy books where the brave knight has to rescue the princess in the tower."
"I hated Holden C. then, and I hate him more now.
As a mom, he's the boy I'd forbid my daughter ever to see and call the police if he showed up on my door step."
"Cursing was used the way I may use the words 'the', 'and', 'a' and 'of'. There was no motivation for me to keep reading."
"Only the devil knows what this book would have made out of me if I had read it in my teens."
"I could not get past how it was completely against everything I was raised to be. I know not everyone is fortunate enough to grow up in a 'traditional' family but I don't believe that kids should have to read about these kinds of extreme experiences in order to appreciate what they have. I think teenagers are so self absorbed still in the process of discovering themsevles that when reading material such as this is placed in front of them at that point in their life they get the wrong idea like it is acceptable to use foul language or act inappropriately. Or, oh well if this is happening, it happens to lots of people. Some of my friends thought our teacher must be cool to let us read a book with language like that."
"It was the constant use of 'goddamn' that got on my nerves. I'm not particular about language in the books that I read as long as it doesn't become excessive. Holden uses goddamn as his adjective of choice, and I became annoyed with him. If he was standing in front of me, I would smack him and say, 'Stop it! At least use it as an adverb or conjunction once in a while, will ya?'"
"I actually wrote a paper about why I didn't finish the book. My English teacher was shocked that I did because he had never gotten anything like that before. However, it was pretty much about how after the first chapter I couldn't read any further."
"This is one of the most popular horrible books I have ever read. Upon hearing of someone's love for it, I immediately become suspicious of their character and demand explanation for their enjoyment. It is one of very few books to have achieved this status with me, along with Mein Kampf and The Bible."
"I could NOT stand Holden's CONSTANT whining! I mean, I even wrote in to my battered copy of the book, 'SHUT YOUR DAMN WHINING, HOLDEN! I MEAN, SERIOUSLY! GET A GRIP!!' I don't know why, but I can't handle people who whine and moan and complain..."
"i do not really km\now the book. I didn't read the book. but from what i heard it was okay."
"Boy, you are not CATCHING kids from going over the cliff, you are pulling them over it. I mean how can you catch someone if you are the one to be stopped, because you yourself don't know what you are doing?
This book may be so misleading... In the wrong hands it is a weapon of self-destruction. The point is it shakes the precarious principles on which teens' understanding of the world is based upon. Is it a good thing to do? I don't know, try to shake the foundations on which your new house is standing. Yeah, it's fun, but don't be surprised if one day roof collapses on your head."

The cry of the infant shook Othrus as he stared at the dead body of his lover. She hadn't survived the birth, and he hated the yowling creature for killing the only woman he'd ever loved. He'd allowed Echidna to carry the child to term, his love for her skewing his judgment.
He waited for the midwife to bring him the infant. When the tiny two-headed beast was put into his hands, he looked down at his son. The abomination was born from death. A murderer before he drew his first breath.
Instead of taking a life for a life, he both blessed and cursed the child. The blessing was for Echidna, who had loved this babe from conception. The curse was for him because he would always despise this boy. "You, my son, shall be the keeper of doors. Of time. You shall live as both good and evil. And whichever side is nurtured will grow strong. Your existence will be lonely. If you find love, and the one who holds your heart leaves you, you shall die."
He handed the child to the midwife. "Take him," he said. "Leave me to grieve in peace."
Emily Henley rubbed her arms to stem the rise of gooseflesh. The smell of lilacs in the summer heat took her back to her grandparents' home in the Ozarks where she'd spent every summer after her mother died. The scent had nearly overwhelmed her as she'd dragged her two suitcases to the monstrous house three stories high and the width of her college's gym. It looked more like an expansive mausoleum than a home. The bronze double doors before her stood at least twice her height if not more. Each side of the doors were inlaid with sculpted panels depicting scenes of grotesque figures reaching up in despair as they were swallowed by the ground. Their mouths wide, eyes pleading, Emily could almost hear their cries. At the top, where they all looked for mercy, hunched a two-headed beast. Its horrible maws open to show dangerously long teeth. Its eyes were cruel and hard.
She stared at the creature, mesmerized by its sheer size. When she felt its gaze settle on her, a red spark flashing in its eyes, she stumbled back with a terrified shriek. She blinked, and the creature was once again a lifeless work of art.
"Jesus." Her quiet tone echoed off the door, amplifying the sound. The door was meant to scare visitors, she reminded herself. And it was really good at its job.
Until three days ago, Emily had been a B student at Boonville Community College working on her associate's degree in education. She had friends, no one she was particularly close to, but several who she enjoyed going out with to the bars in Columbia when the occasion arose. She tended to be a bit introverted, which meant she dated very infrequently. Her mother's long illness and subsequent death had put her and her father's life into a tailspin. While her restless father lost himself in his vices, Emily had rented a small apartment near the college campus. She'd been content with her mediocre life.
When her father had lost their home, their life savings, and the small college fund created by her mother's life insurance policy, she'd cut back on her classes and gotten a second job. Then her father accumulated another sixty-five thousand dollars of debt, giving her little choice but to accept Tsavaras's bargain. Dad had once been a good man. She hoped somewhere deep inside he still had some decency left. After all, she'd signed away three months of her life in exchange for wiping clean his debt. Mr. Tsavaras claimed he wanted only her companionship, and he had reassured her that sex was not a component of their agreement.
Honestly, she'd never heard of Marcus Tsavaras, and considering Tsavaras was powerful, and the area they lived in was small, she had to wonder why she hadn't.
Maybe because I've had my own shit to worry about.
Her internet searches on Tsavaras were a bust. In fact, the web offered little information about the mysterious businessman—certainly nothing before the 1980s.
Tsavaras was a casino owner in Missouri with boats in Kansas City, St. Louis, and her hometown of Boonville. He was a recluse in every sense of the word, never leaving his home, and never allowing his picture to be taken. His biography on his business website were two paragraphs and did not reveal when he was born, where he was born, or where he grew up.
His palatial home sat on a thousand acres of land outside of Boonville, encapsulated by dense woods. Despite its spectacular size, the mansion could not be seen from the rural road that led to his property. She'd taken a taxi to his place, and even in the sunlight, the mile-long driveway, choked by tall oaks and silver maples clawing their way toward the darkening sky, had been intimidating.
Emily gulped hard, steeling her nerve to knock on the massive doors. She had a feeling that once she entered Tsavaras's domain, she might never see the light of day again.
The knockers were large monster heads, one on each side, both at least a foot long and a foot wide. The one on the right had a peaceful expression, a calmness in the way its lips turned down, its eyes open wide, its eyebrows slightly angled up on the inside while the one of the left had a narrowed brow, squinted eyes, and a snarling curl to its upper lip. The animals both had large brass rings in their mouths, with brass orbs the size of baseballs attached to the bottom of the rings.
Big brass balls. She would need to grow a pair to get through her months of servitude.
"I've made a deal with the devil, and he will be given his due." She grabbed the knocker on the left as if to dare it to bite. If she was going to be brave, she was going to go all the way. The heavy brass clanged, creating a booming sound that chilled her blood. For a second, her heart seemed to freeze mid-beat. Marcus Tsavaras was a man, she reminded herself. Just a man…with a lot of money, and apparently, an old-world belief in indentured servitude.
The door didn't make a sound, not even a creak or groan when it swung open. A man stood just inside with his face half-hidden by a shoulder-length cascade of dark chocolate curls. Emily stepped forward, her stride faltering when the light from fading sun caught his face. A white gnarly scar ran down the right side off his face and neck. It had twisted branches at the edges that appeared to be growing toward the unmarred skin on the left, threatening to overtake his entire appearance. Most startling were his eyes, the color of gold leaf. He had to be wearing contacts. Nobody was born with that eye color.
He had to be more than six and a half feet tall. He wore loose pants and a tunic shirt, obscuring his form. Was it an effort to hide his body?
"I'm Emily," she said, her voice shaky.
He smiled for a fleeting second, the unscarred side of his face looking almost youthful. "Welcome, Emily. I'm Ky."
"And I'm Zan," she heard another man say from the darkness. He stepped from behind the right side of the door. His golden gaze, much like the man's on the left, raked her from head to toe. His mouth quirked into a predatory grin. "You are quite lovely. This will be an interesting ninety days, don't you agree?"
He bore a cruel immortal beauty usually reserved for the likes of Dorian Gray and Dracula—high sculpted cheekbones, deep-set eyes framed by thick dark lashes that brushed his skin when he blinked, plump lips, narrow, but berry ripe, and like the scarred man, he had gold leaf eyes. His red T-shirt clung to him like a second skin showing every cut of muscle and bulk beneath. His waist tapered to narrowed hips where the practically painted on slacks fight tightly over his thickly muscled thighs and a bulge at his groin that could only be described as daunting.
Emily licked her lips nervously. "Are you brothers?"
"Of a kind," Ky said.
"Two sides of the same coin," Zan added.
What did that mean? She clutched the handles of her suitcase, more nervous than ever.
"May I take your bags?" Emily noted Ky didn't wait for her to answer as he stepped around to take the luggage. When he brushed against her, the fevered heat from his body invaded hers. Before she could take another step, Zan held up his hand. "Do you enter freely, Emily Henley, and pledge to serve Marcus Tsavaras for the term of three months from this day, no more, no less?
"Do you agree to keep all you see within this household private and in strict confidence during and after your service with Mr. Tsavaras?"
"Yes." She'd already signed the scariest confidentiality agreement she'd ever seen when it had been messengered to her apartment.
"Do you understand that if you choose to leave before the ninety days is over, or if you reveal any details about your service to Mr. Tsavaras, your contract is forfeited, and your father's debt will resume with interest?"
Jeez! Who would she tell? No one but Dad knew about her agreement with Tsavaras. For all his flaws, and since her mother's death he'd exhibited many, she loved him more than any other soul on earth. He'd promised he would keep himself straight, and she hoped that was true. She didn't know if she had the heart to get him out of any more jams.
"I agree. Threatening me isn't necessary. I'll take your boss's secrets to the grave." She crossed her chest. "Hope to die."
Zan raised an eyebrow. "Good." He made a flourishing gesture toward the interior. "You may enter."
Emily followed him inside. Ky shut the door and walked behind her. The foyer's floor was white marble, which offered a sharp contrast to the redwood wainscoting and vulgar aubergine color of the walls. Gold sconces lit the way to the opened tall doors at the other end, and a sudden gorge of fear rose in Emily. She turned, crashing into Ky's chest.
His curls hid enough of his scars to make him almost handsome. "I'm sorry. Your contract has started." She shrunk back at the intensity in his eyes. "Do you understand, Emily?"
"Yes," Emily said, swallowing hard. "I can't leave."
She started walking again, trudging between the brothers like a death-row inmate being escorted to the electric chair. They continued into a large ballroom with cream-colored walls, hand-sanded hardwood floors, and elaborately carved semi-circular staircases that led to the second floor. Where the foyer had been dark, almost sinister, this room was warm and inviting. The giant crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling twinkled diamond bright. Even though she saw no other servants, she noticed everything was spotless, including the chandelier. Not a speck of dust marred the beauty.
The walls were adorned with paintings reminiscent of Monet's Water Lilies. It reminded her of when her mother took her to Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City. They'd sat for hours in the Impressionist room staring at the beautiful paintings. Emily remembered her mom's tears as she took her hand.
When Emily had asked her mom what was wrong, she'd smiled.
"Nothing, love," her mother had said. "Being here with you, Em. Now. It makes me happy. That's all."
Emily briefly closed her eyes as the recollection of her mother's touch faded. She couldn't stop the sadness from ruining even the good memories.
"Come," Ky said. "Your room is at the top of the stairs."
Emily pulled her shoulders back. She was here for a reason. A purpose beyond herself. She would face it with courage. It was the only thing she had left. The polished wood of the banister felt like brushed silk against her fingertips as they ascended the left staircase. The eerie quiet as they walked up, Ky carrying her luggage while Zan led the way, made Emily's uneasiness grow.
Again she had to ask herself: What kind of man bargains to keep a girl as a slave?
Zan laughed. "A lonely man, of course."
Alarmed, Emily missed the next step and crashed down to her knee. The pain of the jolt made her cry out. Had she asked that question out loud?
Ky put the suitcases down and knelt beside her. He reached out as if to help her, but when she flinched, he withdrew his hand. "Are you okay?"
"She's fine," Zan said.
"I'm fine," Emily repeated. She rubbed her knee vigorously, and the pain turned to a dull ache. She stood up, ignoring Zan, and turned to Ky. She forced her expression to remain neutral and willed herself not to stare at the hideous scar on the right side of his face. "Really. I'm okay."
Soon, they stood outside a locked wooden door. Zan used a large skeleton key to open the room and ushered her inside. His seductive smile tapped into something primal in Emily. His eyes promised dark and terrible things, desires she both feared and longed for. He gripped the key tightly in his fist, demonstrating his complete control over how and when he could enter her room. The low chuckle that rumbled from his lips tightened parts low in her body, and she stifled a groan.
Ky put her bags next to an emperor-sized bed. Obviously exasperated, he held out his hand to Zan. His brother slapped the key into his palm.
"Spoil sport."
"Narcissist." Ky turned and smiled. "Emily, I hope you'll be comfortable here." He handed her the key. "The door can be locked on either side." He must have seen her surprise because he added, "In this room, you will be allowed complete privacy. The key ensures no one is permitted in without your say-so."
Zan raised his brow. "Which means, if you want to play out those hidden fantasies of yours, you'll have to invite me in."
Zan scared her, but she couldn't deny his bad-boy charms. "I…I don't know what you're talking about," Emily said. The wet heat between her thighs said she was a liar, liar, pants on fire.
The brothers left, and she locked the door, heaving a sigh of relief. She crawled onto the massive bed and curled against the pillows.
How would she survive the next three months?
Emily's sleep had been fraught with unpleasant nightmares of crying demons and cruel beasts throwing cannon balls at her with their mouths. The day had been worse. No one had come for her, and her stress levels were off the charts. She hadn't left the safety of her bedchambers to do more than peek outside to the corridor. For such a large house, it was very quiet. Too quiet.
A sharp rap sounded on the door, and Emily jumped. Jeez. Calm down. Inhaling a steadying breath, she crossed the room and unlocked it. Ky and Zan stood in the doorway. Once again she was struck by their similarities and their differences. Zan caught her gaze and winked.
Ky cleared his throat, cutting the tension between them. "Dinner is in an hour."
At lunchtime, a meal of fresh yeasty bread, smoked meats and cheeses, along with a large bunch of black grapes had been set outside her door.
"I'm still full from lunch." She snacked when she was nervous, and she spent the entire afternoon working her way through the massive tray of food.
"Your presence is required."
So, now her servitude would begin in earnest. She had a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach and she couldn't shake the deep sense of foreboding.
Zan narrowed his gaze. "Change into something more dinner appropriate."
Emily blushed. She'd put on yoga pants and a loose yoga top after she'd showered. She'd pulled back her hair into a messy bun and hadn't applied a stitch of make-up. Basically, this was her normal everyday look. "I don't believe Mr. Tsavaras put any clause in my contract stipulating that I had to dress a certain way to eat a meal."
"Ah. But dearest Emily, don't you want to look your best when meeting your employer?"
It galled her that Zan's chastisement had merit. All the same, her lower lip trembled, and she clenched her fists as she fought back angry tears.
Ky nodded to Zan, who shrugged at the dismissal. He gave her one last wicked grin before he departed.
"Mr. Tsavaras is looking forward to meeting you."
Emily reached out and touched Ky's arm. The muscle beneath the loose shift bunched beneath her fingertips. The well-developed bicep surprised her. She'd assumed since Zan wore tight clothes to show off his body that Ky wore baggy clothes to hide his.
He straightened his shoulders at her touch, and she could see he was as tall as Zan. "Did you need something before I leave you?"
"Will it be only Mr. Tsavaras and I for dinner?"
"Yes. Don't worry. Someone will come for you." He glanced at her hand still on his arm. He put his hand on hers. His touch electrified her. Emily snatched back her fingers as if she'd been burned. The look on Ky's face, the sadness and disappointment, made her heart ache. "I didn't mean to—"
"It's all right." He refused to meet her eyes. Instead, he turned and left the room.
Emily went to the closed door and quickly locked it. She clutched the key to her heart and allowed the first tears to fall.
"Oh God," she whispered. It was only day two of a ninety-day contract. She hadn't realized how long three months would actually be until now. She had barely handled one night in the hellish mansion.
She walked to the enormous bed and sat on the edge. "One minute at a time," she told herself.
* * * *
Marcus Tsavaras felt a mixture of anger and joy, apathy and empathy, lust and love, and possessiveness and protectiveness. As he always did. The duality of his nature when taking human form caused his conflicting emotions. In the human and the other worlders world, he was a powerful man. He owned many businesses, not just riverboat casinos. He was connected to organized crime in the human world, which made him a valuable asset to Myron Gray and his shadow warriors, and his ability to create portals through space and time made him very important to the rulers of Caledon, the other worlders' royal family. The newest queen, Benoica Dilian had taken two shape-shifting men as her husbands to create her Triune. An unusual choice for a woman born into what most people would consider faery royalty.
Not everyone in his world was happy about the Truine. Marcus had been contacted recently by a determined group who called themselves the Children of Caledon—loyal followers of the previous king. An unimaginative name for an unimaginative group of other worlders who feared Benoica Dilian. They'd wanted Marcus to open the door to Caledon. He had refused to do so, of course, and informed the queen, but he doubted this group could cause any real problems for he royals. Especially with Gray and his shadow warriors keeping watch.
Marcus held out his hands, clasping both sides of himself and merged his two halves into his true form: a single body with two heads. He could feel the way Emily had been drawn to his darker half, the side of him that acted on pure selfish instinct and would satisfy its every desire without thought to consequence. She'd shied from his gentler side, judging him on appearance alone, immediately deeming him a monster. He was unsure about his decision to take Emily into service in exchange for her father's debt.
After she'd first tried to contact him, he'd researched the mahogany-haired beauty. Her social media contained one photo of her with a half-dozen other college students. She'd stood out to him, not because of her beauty, though she was definitely the kind of woman who appealed to him with her curvy hips, full-figured body, sun-kissed skin, dewy lips, and large blue eyes, so clear and bright they rivaled sapphires. However, the main reason he'd agreed to talk to Emily was because her eyes held a soul-deep melancholy he recognized. The dichotomy of this woman, with her bright smile and sad gaze, had called to his own dual nature.
Now that he'd met her, he knew he was both right and wrong in choosing Emily Henley. She would prove a most interesting diversion for a while. She had her own darkness, and he would relish the exploration. But he'd met many women like her over his long life, and her reaction to Ky had been enough to tell him she wouldn't be the one.
"She wants me," his cruel side said.
"Only because she doesn't know me," he gentler side reminded. "Tonight will be a real test of her commitment to the contract," he said.
"Yes, but I could feel her resolve when she agreed."
"She'll run."
"She won't."
"I guess dinner will tell the tale."
Emily believed that she'd made a deal with the devil. She didn't know how close to the truth her statement had been, but tonight she would find out.

Daily Thoughts - take 11
I have quite a few layouts to share here before I put them away, never did for some reason. LOL I have been really going through our house and sorting and purging, so now it is time to hit my scrapbook room.
Layout #11 - This was Vinny at about 2 years old, yep he is that strong to be able to handle Daddy's tamper. The kid is incredible and doesn't seem like he is 2 here. This was mostly made with paints,stamps, and sprays. Some KI tapes, SC wood veneers and Polaroid frames, and Bella products!
I will be back soon with some new layouts created with my Memorable Seasons kit for May - wow is it a good kit! Don't forget to stop by Memorable Seasons starting Wednesday to help us celebrate NSD in a colorful way!

The release of both the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA®)'s A Guide to the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge (BABOK® Guide) v3 and the Project Management Institute® (PMI®)'s Business Analysis for Practitioners has given business analysts (BAs) a lot of information to process. To help make sense of things, Global Knowledge instructors Cheryl Lee and Adam McClellan joined forces to educate attendees on the differences between the two guides, how both guides compare to the previous version of the BABOK ® Guide, and where all this might be going.
It's all here in our webinar, "The Impact of IIBA's New BABOK® Guide and PMI's New Business Analysis for Practitioners Guide."
Not surprisingly, attendees had some great questions for our instructors. So great, in fact, we decided to share them here, along with the duo's great answers.
Q: If I am planning to take the CBAP certification exam in 4Q 2015, I should concentrate on BABOK® Guide v2, correct?
A: Correct, the exam isn't expected to switch over until Q1 2016. I would caution against leaving it until the last minute, as the differences between v2 and v3 are significant enough that you would have to start preparation almost from scratch if you didn't make the cutoff. As mentioned during the webinar, the content has doubled between v2 and v3, and there were many terminology changes, so it can get confusing if studying both versions.
Q: Does IIBA have an edge over PMI?
A: The comment we made on the webinar regarding the polling results and how we were surprised that there was an even split between those wanting to pursue the CBAP and PBA was because the IIBA has been in the BA certification space longer than PMI. We were surprised at how quickly the PBA has gained traction in the BA community. It will be interesting to see where this will go in the near future. We wouldn't be surprised to see PMI have an edge over IIBA in the BA certification space, given the sheer size of PMI and the investment PMI has made in business analysis and requirements management.
Q: Why would someone want both?
A: I suppose it really depends on your career goals. The IIBA focuses on a more strategic perspective on business analysis, where PMI focuses on business analysis within the realm of projects and programs. If your focus is on both areas, then you may want to pursue both certifications.
Q: I'm an existing CBAP. When it's time to recertify, will I need to take a BABOK® Guide v3 exam?
A: According to the current CBAP recertification handbook, you would not need to take a BABOK® Guide v3 exam. You would, however, need to obtain 60 continuing development units (CDUs) within three years to maintain your certification. As mentioned during the webinar, IIBA is looking to launch a new certification road map around the time the exam switches over to reflect BABOK® Guide v3. We highly doubt the recertification requirements will change, but we really aren't sure at the moment. The IIBA has advised that current CBAPs/CCBAs will be mapped over to the new certifications and people looking to pursue IIBA certifications should still continue to do so. We should have more information soon.
Q: So, I'm assuming existing CCBAs will need to take BABOK® Guide v3 for CBAP certification?
A: It would depend on when they take the CBAP exam – whether it's before or after the exam switches over to reflect BABOK® Guide v3.
Q: What is the difference between PD hours for CBAP certification and PDUs in general?
A: IIBA labels them continuing development units (CDUs) and PMI labels them professional development units (PDUs). Conceptually, they are the same: One hour of business analysis education = a CDU or a PDU. However, a project management course may qualify for PMI PDUs, but it obviously would not qualify for IIBA CDUs.
Q: Do you believe the business architecture perspective in BABOK® Guide v3 is sufficient coverage for business architecture concepts? Or do you view this as a separate, but complementary, discipline with the Business Architecture Guild and A Guide to the Business Architecture Body of Knowledge® (BIZBOK® Guide)?
A: The business architecture perspective is a relatively high-level overview and by no means the last word on the subject. For now, I'd continue to think of the BIZBOK® Guide and BABOK® Guide v3 as complementary.
Comment: Innovation Games and Tasty Cupcakes are also good collaboration game sites. In addition to Gamestorming.
A: Good to know. Thank you for sharing!
Q: I see a lot of crossover between v3 to be more inclusive of other disciplines, e.g., change management, project management, training and development. Was this the intent of BABOK® Guide v3, as often on projects there is grey area about who has accountability for certain tasks? What is your opinion on this?
A: I think it's natural for business analysis to cross over to these other disciplines. You see this in PMI's Business Analysis for Practitioners as well – especially between business analysis and project management. This is actually why the collaboration points are so great. It clears up a lot of the grey area.
Q: So for business analysis, should we pursue the BA certification at PMI or IIBA?
A: It really depends on your area of focus. Generally, if you are a pure BA who works more on strategic initiatives rather than projects, the IIBA certifications are probably a better fit. If you work mainly on projects or are a hybrid project manager (PM)/BA, the PMI-PBA would likely be a better fit.
Comment: I love that collaboration point as well. This is what I was referring to earlier that is missing from v3 for me.
A: Agreed! Absolutely love these in the PMI business analysis practice guide. According to the 2014 PMI Pulse of the Profession Requirements Management Report, more than 50 percent of organizations want to see an increase in integration between business analysis and project management professions. Furthermore, almost 70 percent of organizations indicate that role collaboration between PMs and BAs are essential for project success. Unfortunately, most of the time, PMs and BAs are unsure of how to collaborate, and there is still a lot of role confusion on what the BA actually does. It is definitely a step in the right direction to fill this gap.
Comment: I feel like the workforce is not ready yet for the direction the IIBA is going with v3. That's why the PMI-PBA is more appealing – because it's more relevant to today's work environment.
A: Interesting point. Most of us who are BAs do work on projects. There are, however, folks out there who perform strategic analysis for organizations, which is by definition business analysis, but these more senior professionals aren't typically titled BAs.
Q: I am a CBAP and also certified in training and development and change management. Is there value in getting the PMI-PBA certification?
A: Again, it depends on your career goals. The IIBA focuses on a more strategic perspective on business analysis, where PMI focuses on business analysis within the realm of projects and programs. If your focus is on both, then you may want to pursue both.
Comment: I do hope Global Knowledge will be hosting a certification prep class soon – online or in person.
A: Global Knowledge currently offers prep courses for both certifications: CBAP/CCBA Certification Prep Boot Camp and PMI-PBA Certification Boot Camp.

boston switch
Boston Switch is a fiction layout based on Boston Harbor area. It is a whopping two boards with three industries. They include,
Cement Plant
Steel Distributor
There is a lot of action in this route. It is in the fall, so most of the scenery is orange, brown, and red. The route also comes with full
night lighting. Here is a quick hint, the route is very frame heavy, so be careful.
If you would like to create sessions you may, but send them to me to put on this site, because they are not allowed anywhere else. This route will keep you busy for hours
