42-year-old John Ajene, who resides in Otukpo Local Government Area of Benue State, Tuesday had his penis chopped off by his infuriated wife, Mrs. Roseline Ajene for his alleged infidelity.
Vanguard Newspaper gathered from an eyewitness that the aggrieved woman carried out the dastardly act while her husband was deep asleep.
According to the eyewitness, Mrs. Rosaline Ajene who resides with her husband on Ojira Street Otukpo, had few weeks ago accused her of having extra-marital affair with a young lady (name withheld) who lives on Sabon Gari area of the same town.
Mr. Ajene who was said to be visibly enraged by the wife's unfounded accusation beat her up mercilessly forcing residents in the neigbourhood to intervene in the ensuing skirmish.
Our source stressed however that when all seemed to have calmed down and the couple had gone to bed, the enraged wife picked up her kitchen knife and cut off her husband's manhood while he was deep asleep.
"The scream of the man woke his neigbours who rushed to his house only to discovered his penis on the floor while he bled profusely; but he was rushed to a private clinic in the neighborhood where he is presently receiving medical attention", he stated.
Vanguard Newspaper also gathered that the aggrieved woman took to her heels after committing the act and no one knows her whereabout at the time of filing this report.
When contacted, the Benue State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Deputy Superintendent of Police Daniel Ezeala said he was yet to be briefed on the matter.

The Hershey Company continues their charitable legacy through CocoaLink programJune 7, 2011
By Marni Gordon, SVP of committees and conferences, ANA
During Memorial Day weekend, my family and I had a great time at Hersheypark! We really enjoyed getting splashed on the water rides at "The Boardwalk" and designing our own candy bars in Hershey's Chocolate World.
We also took the famous Hershey's Chocolate Tour where visitors learn how chocolate is manufactured from cocoa bean to chocolate bar. While eating the free chocolate distributed at the end of the tour, my daughter and I stopped to read brochures about all of the outstanding charitable work that The Hershey Company's founder, Milton S. Hershey, accomplished during his lifetime. Milton S. Hershey's philanthropic achievements continue to live on today such as the Milton Hershey School which provides a free K-12 education and a home on a 9,000-acre campus to more than 1,200 underprivileged boys and girls.
The Hershey Company is also leading groundbreaking work in the mobile space through revolutionizing cocoa bean farming technology while helping farmers in Ghana. The Hershey Company joined with the Ghana Cocoa Board and World Cocoa Foundation to create a program called CocoaLink to help farmers communicate and learn through mobile devices. CocoaLink will help as many as 100,000 farmers get free mobile access around critical issues such as agriculture, social programs and medical care.
I am so excited to hear more about how The Hershey Company is using mobile technology to help others at our first-ever ANA Mobile Marketing Conference on September 14th! Click here if you would like to read more.

Unfortunately, stroke is a common cause of disability and death. This threat is magnified if stroke is common in your family. Although you cannot change your genetics, there are ways to minimize your controllable risks and be proactive.
Gain Control Over Chronic Disease
Some of the major controllable risk factors associated with stroke are diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol. If you have been diagnosed with one or more of these conditions, it is imperative to keep your numbers under control. Making positive lifestyle changes, such as improving your diet, maintaining a healthy weight, quitting smoking, and engaging in regular exercise, works for all chronic diseases. Although you may not be able to quit your chronic-disease medications, you may be able to limit the amount you take.
Even if you have not been diagnosed with a chronic disease, regular check-ups and blood work to monitor your numbers can help you notice changes before they reach dangerous levels. Chronic diseases can occur independently, even if you live a healthy lifestyle and are not overweight. Therefore, no one is immune to developing chronic diseases.
Have Your Carotid Artery Checked
Stroke can occur due to blockages anywhere within the cerebrovascular system or burst blood vessels within the brain (hemorrhagic stroke) or if a blood clot happens to travel to the brain. Although carotid artery screenings only focus on the major blood vessel leading to the brain, a screening may catch narrowing of the artery that is the culprit of some strokes. Fortunately, the procedure is easy and painless. Ultrasound is used to watch blood flow through the carotid artery. If any abnormalities are found, a surgeon can determine whether immediate treatment is required or whether it can be delayed. Narrowing of the carotid artery is usually treated with a stent to maintain blood flow to the brain.
Understand The Warning Signs
Knowing the warning signs of stroke and related conditions can mean the difference between little to no impairments or catastrophic damage. Some common symptoms associated with ischemic stroke are numbness and paralysis (typically on one side), slurred speech, headache, and confusion. The people around you should know how to recognize stroke symptoms in case you are not aware you are experiencing a problem. Hemorrhagic stroke can have similar symptoms, but the headache may be more intense, with nausea and vomiting. When treatment is rendered promptly, there are better stroke outcomes. In some cases of ischemic stroke, medications can be used to reverse symptoms if administered within the first few hours.
Stroke is a life-altering medical emergency, and its threat is magnified if you have a family history of the condition. Fortunately, being proactive about your risk factors can help you fight back against your genetics. For more information, contact a doctor who specializes in neurological services and treatment.Share

- Blackcap basslet larvae (Gramma melacara) were raised from captive-spawned eggs at 77-79F on rotifers and artemia.
- The larval duration was 25 days.
The Gramma genus comprises only four species (the royal gramma, the blackcap basslet, the yellowlined basslet and Gramma dejongi), all of which inhabit the Caribbean region. The royal gramma and blackcap basslet are quite common in the aquarium trade, the former being the most popular. Fairy basslets are hardy and docile aquarium residents but should be properly paired if kept together with members of their own kind. They thrive on most conventional aquarium foods and can be kept in smaller tanks but need lots of good hiding places. The fairy basslets have been cultured by a number of farms but production has not been consistent over the years. They were first raised as far back as the 1960's.
The Blackcap Basslet (Gramma melacara) is the deepwater cousin of the more common fairy basslet. It prefers only moderate lighting and, being sub-tropical, water temperatures between 76 and 80º F. This species is difficult to pair because of its extreme aggression towards members of its own kind and lack of sexual distinction. Males are usually larger and slight more elongated than females in the wild.
All fairy basslets are demersal spawners. In the wild males build nests out of macroalgae in carefully selected crevices. At my facility they spawned in pieces of PVC pipe closed on both ends with a small entry hole drilled in the middle. Nests were built out of shredded filter material at the beginning of the spawning season (winter). Spawning took place in the afternoon, every day or two, over several months. Females can produce anywhere from 10 to 100 eggs with each spawn. G. melacara eggs are slightly larger than 1 mm in diameter and hatch after 6 days in the sequence they were laid. Newly hatched G. melacara larvae feed on s-type rotifers within 14 hours. G. melacara larvae are relatively easy to raise on enriched rotifers and artemia and metamorphose between day 24 and 33 in Tetraselmis greenwater. G. melacara metamorphose noticeable earlier when fed Tetraselmis enriched Artemia that was further enriched with Shizochitrium than with Tetraselmis enriched Artemia alone.

Research Summary
Karina Xavier studies interspecies cell-to-cell communication in bacteria and its role in beneficial and hostile interactions in the bacterial communities of the mammalian gut. Her aims include establishing strategies to tailor gut microbiota composition and to profit from its protective function against infectious and inflammatory diseases.
Bacteria are unicellular organisms, but it has become obvious in recent years that, like cells in a multicellular tissue, bacteria can synchronize their gene expression and engage in group behaviors. Bacterial group behaviors include the formation of biofilms, which are multicellular structures of bacteria encased in an extracellular matrix; production of bioluminescence, as in many marine bacteria; or the synchronized production of virulence factors during chronic infections of human pathogens. These traits are essential for hostile, as well as beneficial, relationships between different species of bacteria and between bacteria and their hosts.
The main molecular mechanism involved in the regulation of these multicellular behaviors is a process called quorum sensing. This mechanism allows bacteria to count their cell numbers and regulate gene expression accordingly. Bacteria do so by producing small signaling molecules—autoinducers that are secreted and sensed by themselves and their neighbors. Because quorum sensing regulates virulence in important human pathogens, therapies to quench quorum sensing are already being explored as alternative methods to traditional antibiotics for controlling bacterial infections.
Most researchers studying quorum sensing focus on systems that involve species-specific signals, which are important for communication within bacteria of the same species (intraspecies communication). In nature, however, most ecosystems are composed of many different species of bacteria; therefore, I am interested in studying communication between different bacterial species (interspecies communication).
One quorum-sensing signal, autoinducer-2 (AI-2), is produced by many bacteria widely distributed through the kingdom Bacteria. During my postdoctoral studies with Bonnie Bassler (HHMI, Princeton University), I cocultured different bacterial species together and showed that they can use AI-2 to regulate each other's gene expression. Thus I demonstrated that AI-2 can foster interspecies communication. My hypothesis is that interspecies quorum sensing is crucial for species interactions in multispecies communities and that its manipulation can lead to new therapeutic avenues.
To understand interspecies signaling and its role in natural ecosystems, we use an integrative approach that investigates interspecies quorum sensing across many scales, spanning the molecules, receptors, biochemical pathways, and signal transduction networks. We developed many tools to manipulate and probe interspecies signaling in vitro, and we have achieved considerable advances in the field. We now propose to apply the same approaches in vivo in the microbiota of the mammalian gut, a natural multispecies environment of great importance to human health. My expectation is that we will be able to establish strategies to tailor gut microbiota to improve health conditions.
AI-2: A Signal That Fosters Interspecies Communication in Bacteria
My recent research has focused on the mechanisms of bacterial interspecies signaling mediated by AI-2, a signal produced and detected by a wide variety of different bacterial species. I characterized the molecular players involved in the signal transduction pathway in the model bacterium Escherichia coli. This work provided the tools to develop the first laboratory system to study AI-2 signaling in multispecies consortia. With this setup, I demonstrated that different bacterial species can use AI-2 to communicate, supporting the initial hypothesis that AI-2 is a universal signal for bacterial communication.
Meanwhile, we and others have shown that AI-2 regulates a wide diversity of bacterial behaviors, such as virulence, biofilm formation, and antibiotic production. However, despite the large number of studies identifying phenotypes regulated by AI-2, the molecular mechanisms involved in AI-2 recognition and signal transduction are still poorly understood. Identification of such mechanisms has been one of the main interests of my research. Two receptors for AI-2 have been identified: the LuxP receptor, which was identified by members of the laboratories of Bonnie Bassler and Frederick Hughson (Princeton University), and the LsrB receptor, which we identified in collaboration with Stephen Miller (presently at Swarthmore College). The LuxP receptor is exclusively found in the vibrios, and we wonder if LsrB, which was identified first in Salmonella typhimurium, could be present in other organisms. We used a combination of structural, genetic, and bioinformatics approaches to identify functional LsrB AI-2 receptors in bacteria with sequenced genomes. With this study we showed that the presence of LsrB goes beyond enteric bacteria; this allowed us to establish a general method to identify new functional AI-2 receptors, which we validated experimentally.
Clues for the function of the LsrB AI-2 receptor came from my initial work in E. coli. This bacterium has an unusual profile of AI-2 production and accumulation. At early stages of growth, E. coli produce and secrete AI-2, until AI-2 reaches a certain critical concentration; at this point a mechanism dependent on LsrB that internalizes AI-2 is turned on, removing the signal from the environment.Using mixed-species cocultures, I demonstrated that consumption of AI-2 by enteric bacteria can be used to interfere with AI-2–mediated communication in other species, including the ability of human pathogens to regulate virulence. With this work I realized that we can use E. coli to manipulate AI-2 levels in environments colonized by this bacterium. We have constructed mutants that produce AI-2 and keep it at high levels (thus promoting communication) and others that efficiently remove and destroy the signal (thus silencing communication). Our plan is to use E. coli as a tool to control AI-2–dependent communication in vivo and to determine the role of AI-2 in natural environments.
Identifying the Bacterial Chemical Lexicon
Every year, new quorum-sensing signals are being discovered; thus knowledge of the chemical molecules that foster bacteria communication is in its early beginnings. To understand interspecies quorum sensing, we aim to identify and characterize new signals. There is substantial evidence of additional signals mediating interspecies quorum sensing in important pathogens, but the molecules remain unidentified. We are conducting genetic screens in these pathogens to identify genes involved in the biosynthesis of these signals. By combining the results obtained in these screens with biochemical approaches we expect to identify novel signals that should be important for virulence control in multispecies ecosystems.
Silencing and Promoting Interspecies Communication in the Gut Microbiota
The mammalian gut is an amazing ecosystem: it contains far more bacterial cells than the human cells we have in our body and more than 1,000 different bacterial species that have to coexist in the gut and interact with each other and with the host. The molecular mechanisms involved in these interactions remain basically unknown. My hypothesis is that interspecies communication plays a major role in colonization and homeostasis of gut microbiota. In this work we will establish a method to manipulate AI-2 interspecies signaling in the gut of mice, using the different E. coli mutants in the mechanism for AI-2 accumulation/removal mentioned above. Once we identify new signals, we will use a similar approach for other systems. Our goals are to identify the microbiota species that are favored when promoting or silencing interspecies communication and to determine the consequences of manipulating interspecies communication on the protective properties of gut microbiota against pathogens and inflammatory agents.
I expect this work will bring us closer to implementing strategies to tailor microbiota composition and to using the protective function of microbiota to develop new treatments to solve pathogenic infections, inflammatory diseases, and diseases related to nutritional imbalances, such as obesity and diabetes.

Friday is Nelson Mandela Day, a day to celebrate the great humanitarian and former president of South Africa. And if you're in the area, you totally ought to stop by Times Square in New York City and get in on the activist action taking place!
That's because Global Citizen, Nelson Mandela's grandson Kweku Mandela and tons of activists will be there to help put an end to extreme poverty. The get-together starts at 4, and at 4:15 they'll start playing footage of Mandela on the giant billboards. You'll also be able to watch the "Zero Poverty 2030" movie and you might even get a photo with Kweku Mandela. Plus, if you attend and are able to get 10 people to sign the Zero Poverty 2030 petition, you'll receive 8 points on Global Citizen, which could help you get to the Global Citizen Festival this fall.
If you don't live nearby or can't make it for any other reasons, there are still ways you can take part. You could share a special #DayofAction video on Facebook (which, again, could help you get tickets to the Global Citizen Festival). You can also share on Twitter to help raise awareness.
What Global Citizen is doing on Nelson Mandela Day is a part of something bigger. They're serious about ending extreme poverty by 2030, and we can all join in and help them. And creating a world without extreme poverty would be a great way to honor Nelson Mandela and continue his humanitarian mission. After all, Mandela himself said, "Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings."

These days, our knowledge of celebrities too often originates with paparazzi images and snarky quotes by anonymous "insiders." After a while, it's easy to forget that stars are real people. That's why HuffPost Celebrity decided to launch its all-new #nofilter quick-fire question-and-answer series. Because how well do you know someone until they've shared their guiltiest pleasures?
Kit Harington may not be recognized by all, but one thing's for sure -- he's recognized by the millions of viewers who tune into "Game of Thrones" season after season. And speaking of the hit HBO show, Season 3 premieres on Sunday, March 31, and Harington himself stopped by HuffPost Live to discuss what sort of drama his character Jon Snow will be facing this year. And thankfully, HuffPost Celebrity was able to squeeze in a few #nofilter questions with the 26-year-old British star to see what he likes to do (aside from starring on one of the best shows on TV).
What shows are always on your DVR? "Breaking Bad," "Breaking Bad." I'm a huge "Breaking Bad" fan. I love that show. I love Bryan Cranston, I think he's an incredible actor. I've loved him since he was on "Malcolm in the Middle" years ago. I'm not a huge TV watcher ... I read.
You're here to promote season 3 of "Game of Thrones!" I'm doing a bad job aren't I? [he smirks] Umm ... "Game of Thrones."
What's on your nightstand? What's on my nightstand ...
What books are on your nightstand? There's a writer called William Boyd, so I'm reading a lot of William Boyd. I tend to pick an author and try and read everything they've done and then move on. If you want a good book, William Boyd writes a very good novel. I like poetry. I'm big into my poetry.
If failure weren't an option, what would you do aside from acting? I would like to be a poet. If failure weren't an option, I'd be a poet. That is what I'd do, I'd be a writer. It's still something I have in my mind.
Do you write poetry? I do, yeah.
What do you write about? It's terrible poetry. I would never ever ever read it to anybody. But I do write, I do write poems.
And HuffPost Live's Abby Huntsman had a few more personal questions for the "Game of Thrones" hunk.
You have become kind of HBO's heartthrob. Would you say you're that way in real life? No. No. No. I think the day I start seeing myself as a heartthrob is the day I have to take a really good look in the mirror.
When you look 10 years down the road from now, where do you hope to be, where do you see yourself? I want to be doing more theater. And I want to be balancing that alongside poetry writing and film roles. I want to be acting, but I want to be doing more than just acting.

SuperSport United's Kaitano Tembo haunts Pirates
SuperSport United coach Kaitano Tembo is ready for round two against Orlando Pirates at Orlando Stadium on Saturday [8.15pm].
Matsatsantsa knocked out the Buccaneers in the MTN8 quarterfinals on penalties last month.
"It's a tough game and we are trying to put a lot of emphasis in our league games. We need to try to take it game by game," said Tembo, who was speaking to the media at pay channel SuperSport's studios in Randburg this week.
Tembo was in the building for the MTN8 final venue announcement, which was confirmed as Moses Mabhida Stadium for SuperSport's clash against Cape Town City on September 29. "We are not thinking about the final at the moment because we've got important business in terms of the league to take care of.
"We will start thinking about the final after the [Black] Leopards game [on September 23 at Lucas Moripe Stadium]."
The coach maintained that the two games against Pirates and Leopards are an opportunity for his players to earn a starting berth for the final.
"I don't think you can be able to play in the final if you don't feature in the next two games, so I think the players are also motivated. It's a good motivation for me as a coach, because I know the players want to raise their hands to play in the final," he added.

The jQuery :contains() selector allows you to select elements that contain a specified string; once you have selected the elements, you can do something with them, of course, such as displaying them. This ability to select elements, then take action makes the :contains() selector a valuable tool for displaying dynamic web content.
Want to know more about jQuery and JavaScript? There are plenty of good online courses, from beginning to advanced, in these subjects and more. Check some out today!
jQuery: A Little Background
Before we dive in, here's a quick look at what jQuery is all about:
jQuery is an open-source JavaScript library; its main purpose is to make it easier to work with web pages and HTML, and to handle scripting for many dynamic web page functions, particularly at the client end. It can be used with AJAX and Microsoft Visual Studio, and can be included in a web page either as a local copy (it is a single, downloadable JavaScript file), or from one of the publicly-available hosted locations. You use the $ prefix to access jQuery commands, typically followed by a selection command or statement, called a "selector", in parenthesis, followed by a period, with a command or statement defining the action following the period. The selectors are in quotes; the action commands aren't in quotes, although their arguments typically are. The general format of a jQuery statement looks like this:
$("select_something").do_something('argument 1","argument 2", etc.)
Using :contains()
Here's the basic syntax for using the :contains() selector:
Where some_selector is a selector that defines the type of element — typically, an HTML formatting tag, such as
,
, etc., without the <> brackets: "p:contains(some_text)", which looks for all paragraph HTML elements (tagged with
…
) that contain the string "some_text", "li:contains(some_text)", which does the same thing for list HTML elements (tagged with
…
)etc.
some_action is a jQuery action, which will operate on all elements which meet the selection criteria.
Pick A Line
Below is a stripped-down but functional example of the :contains() selector in operation:

This is the right line.

This is the wrong line.

If you copy the above code, paste it into a text file, give the file the extension .hem, and open it in a browser, it should produce the following output:
This is the right line. This is the wrong line.
How It Works
First of all, note that the page links to an online source for the jQuery library; it could just as easily link to a local instance, but it must link to some version of the jQuery library. Next, note that the :contains() selector is part of a function which serves as an argument for the .ready() method. The .ready() method checks to see if the document (i.e., the HTML page) has been loaded; after it is fully loaded, the function contained in the .ready() method's argument will run. Using jQuery operations as arguments for the .ready() method ensures that the contents of the page will be available when they run.
Searching For The Text
Now look at this line:
Let's pick it apart. First, note the $. Since you're already linked to the jQuery library, the $ tells you that whatever follows will be a jQuery command. Immediately following (between the first set of parentheses) is the selector, ("p:contains(right)"), which in this case really consists of two selectors; note that the entire selector argument is in quotes. The first selector is "p", which tells jQuery to look for all text contained within paragraph tags (
…
. The second selector in the :contains() selector. In this case, the search test is "right". Taken altogether, "p:contains(right)" tells jQuery to look for all HTML paragraph elements that contain the string "right".
Taking Action
Now let's take a lot at the second half of the line. The .css() method is the action to be taken when jQuery find the HTML elements that contain the search string. The arguments for the .css() method are standard CSS properties; again, note that they are in quotes. In this case, they simply say to set the fond style to italic. There are a variety of jQuery methods which can be used with the :contains() selector; they can include lengthy and complex arguments, including functions, and as discussed below, long strings of HTML code.
Making It A Little More Functional
Can we make our sample code a little more interactive? Let's place the :contains() selector in a jQuery-style button function, and give the user a choice:
      <button class="rght_btn">Pick the right line</button> <button class="wrng_btn">Pick the wrong line</button>
This is the right line.

This is the wrong line.

Now the selectors and their subsequent .css() methods only go into action after the user clicks on one of the buttons. Since the action taken is now in response to a user action, we might want to make the response a bit more dynamic:
$(".wrng_btn").click(function(){ $("p:contains(wrong)").fadeOut(3000);
Now, instead of being displayed in italics, the "wrong" line will fade out completely, taking 3,000 milliseconds to disappear. You could also use the .hide() method to achieve a similar effect. The .fadeToggle() and .hideToggle() methods will fade the selected element in or out, depending on its current state.
Let's Get Dynamic
You can also combine the :contains() selector with the .html() method to produce some on-the-spot dynamic web content. Clicking on either button replaces the target HTML element with an entire HTML-formatted list:
      <button class="rght_btn">My Favorite Things</button> <button class="wrng_btn">My Unfavorite Things</button>
My favorite things.

My unfavorite things.

Note that the first selector, ("p:contains( favorite)"), includes a space before the target text. if it didn't then clicking on the first button would select both lines, and replace them with the same text, since they both contain the string "favorite". Adding a leading space allows us to distinguish between the stand-alone word "favorite" and the string "favorite" contained in the word "unfavorite".
There's a lot more that you can do with jQuery, of course, and you can find plenty of online classes, from beginning to advanced, where you can learn much more about jQuery, about JavaScript, and about web design and programming in general.

Gordon Hayward had one of the more grotesque leg injuries that we have seen in the NBA for a while on opening night when the Celtics took on the Cavaliers in Cleveland.
While most would safely assume that Hayward was done until next fall, there have been rumors that have popped up at times over the past few months that suggest that Hayward could actually return to the Celtics in time for the 2018 playoffs.
This photo posted by Celtics General Manager Danny Ainge on Tuesday is going to add fuel to that fire…
USA swimmer @smeathers5 (no muscle) coached by Celtic great @gordonhayward (no brace) lost a devastating race to Australian swimmer @stephen_mount today. No rematch is scheduled nor will be. #swimmersneedmuscles pic.twitter.com/lxTD4UqiIB
— Danny Ainge (@danielrainge) January 9, 2018
The fact that Hayward is already out of a brace and walking and swimming is pretty incredible, and a great sign considering how gruesome the injury was, but it still feels unlikely that Hayward will actually return for the Celtics this season.
Whether he is medically cleared by the team or not, I think it would be a bad idea for the Celtics to bring Hayward back to the court at any time this season, even with how enticing it could be to add him to a roster that is already positioned to compete for an NBA title.
There have been way too many examples of players coming back from leg or knee injuries too soon and suffering the consequences for the remainder of their career because of it.
Grant Hill dealt with injuries for years and was never the same player after coming back in the 2000 postseason to play for the Detroit Pistons and Brandon Roy was never an effective NBA player again and was out of the league just a few years after returning for the 2010 playoffs for the Blazers, while recovering from knee surgery.
The Celtics have one of the youngest rosters in the NBA and a very bright future, there is no reason to put your most heavily invested asset (for the moment) at risk in order to increase your chances to compete for an NBA title slightly in 2018.

Top Ten Non-Singles from Kelly Clarkson's All I Ever WantedtheOpinionatedOne In 2009, Kelly Clarkson released her 4th studio album All I Ever Wanted. Unlike her prior 3 records, this album had a wide range of genres incorporated within her usual pop rock style. This is the way I would rank 10 of the 11 songs not released as singles (excluding the Japan-only track "Can We Go Back").
The Top Ten
Wow. This is kind of a random list to be featured. - phillysports
How this is a featured list? - ProPanda
I have noo clue why this wasn't a single! It's perfectly catchy, it's danceable, it's relatable, and it's Kelly's first foray into synthpop. Better choice for single than "I Do Not Hook Up," "Cry" or even "All I Ever Wanted." - theOpinionatedOne
There's something irresistible about this song. It doesn't snag you at first but then when that chorus hits you, you're hooked! - theOpinionatedOne
This is one of the prime examples of Kelly's exploration of different styles on All I Ever Wanted. Here, Kelly tries out an odd but surprisingly effective brand of electro-R&B that leaves you wanting more. - theOpinionatedOne
This is a rather unremarkable song until you come to the bridge where a classical (Bach, to be specific) inspired piano break is heard. It has enough weight to make the song stand out among the album. - theOpinionatedOne
There's like a country-meets-Motown vibe in this song that I really love. - theOpinionatedOne
Kelly mainly stays in her usual comfort zone of pop rock on this song, sparing a whizzing keyboard that underscores most of it. - theOpinionatedOne
This one comes off as rather "sterile" to me. It's catchy and Kelly owns it, but there's very little that grabs the attention of the listener. There's not much distinction between this and hits like "Behind These Hazel Eyes" and "Walk Away." - theOpinionatedOne
This is one of my fave Songs she ever did! - Curti2594
Now this is something I think everyone had been waiting for! We all knew Kelly had punk rock in her, she'd been hinting at it on songs like "Behind These Hazel Eyes" and "One Minute" but finally unleashed it full force on this Aranda cover. The vocal is perfect for the song and it's a rather impressive snapshot in Kelly's history but not anything you'd want to listen to on repeat. - theOpinionatedOne
Nothing remarkable but OK. - theOpinionatedOne
Katy Perry should have just kept it for herself. Kelly can do better than this. - theOpinionatedOne
This is my favorite by a mile lol WHYYY - ProPanda

We want nothing but the best for our pets. No one enjoys it when they're in pain. This is often the case when your cat is constipated. So what are some warning signs to determine if your cat is having bowel issues? For the best information, always check with your Niagara Falls vet.
There are a few indicators you should watch for in the event your cat might be suffering. One is "crying" meows while in the litter box. This is usually an indicator that she is having trouble passing something.
Another sign is diarrhea. It can sometimes leak around more solid feces. It is important that if you notice any of this to contact your Niagara Falls vet as soon as possible.
Often, constipation is caused by diet. Consult your Niagara Falls vet to see what you can do should this happen to your cat.

Whether you grow your own vineyard, or just have a couple of grape vines on your property for fun, pruning them is the most important part about growing the vines. This is to ensure optimum fruit development and to maintain their shape. Although grape vines should be pruned all year long, there are certain things you need to cut back in the spring season.
Make sure you do not prune back your grape vines at any time during the first year of growth. You want the vine to grow wildly during this first year in order to establish strong roots, a healthy growth system and shape.
Prune all of the side vines and stems during the spring of the second year, except for the two strongest ones on either side of the grape vine's trunk. Encourage side growth at this time by pinching the vine's top.
Prune the top of the vine's main trunk during the end of the spring/early summer. This helps encourage maximum fruit yield. Prune back the weaker stems that are twirling up the side stems, as well as those crawling outwards on the ground or leaning to the sides. These will just suck necessary nutrients away from the stronger trunks.
Prune the grape vine the same way you did in Step 3 in the spring of the third year, trimming the same parts. Additionally, shape the grape vine with the pruning shears and scissors. This is necessary to keep the basic framework of the grape vine.
Continue pruning the grape vine in this way each spring season, in order to get rid of excess growth and to maintain the shape. Keep in mind that there is also intensive pruning to be done on grape vines in the winter in order for maximum fruit production.
Things You Will Need

Essay: Legalize Medical Marijuana
Pages: 5 (1544 words) · Bibliography Sources: 5 · File: .docx · Topic: Evolution
for $19.77
One of the more controversial issues in American politics today is the issue of marijuana legalization. There are many forms that this can take, ranging from decriminalization to medical legalization to recreational legalization. If the recreational debate is focused around issues like individual rights, the medical debate should be more straightforward, focused specifically on issues of medical efficacy. All drugs that are given approval by the FDA for medical use go through screening processes to test for safety and efficacy, so marijuana for medical purposes would have to do the same to be legalized at the federal level.. This paper will examine some of the arguments for and against the legalization of marijuana for medical purposes. Ultimately, there are many health benefits that go along with medical marijuana use. Furthermore, marijuana if legalized can be subject to taxation, something that will increase the budget revenues of any government willing to legalize it. The third argument in favor of medical marijuana is that an FDA-guided regulatory process would make marijuana safer, by ensuring a consistent product, with determinable potency, free from fault or defect.
But first, some background. Marijuana is a plant of the species cannabis sativa L., also known as Indian hemp. It is a member of the Cannibacae, or hemp family. Hops, used in flavoring beer, are another plant in this family, one that is not subject to legal constraint. Cannabis is thought to have originated in the mountainous districts of India, south of the Himalayan Mountains. Marijuana has been used for its health benefits for millennia. Terrie (2015) notes that it has been used "for more than 3000 years for the treatment and management of pain, digestive issues and psychological disorders," while Zimmerman (2015) points out that this use was not limited to India -- it was used in ancient China to treat gout, rheumatism, malaria and memory loss.
To illustrate how contentious the issue of marijuana is, the United States is nearly split on the issue. The use of marijuana for medical purposes is legal in 23 states, plus the District of Columbia and Guam (Zimmerman 2015), while there are now four states that have legalized recreational use -- Washington, Oregon, Colorado and Alaska. Medical marijuana should be legalized in the remaining states, and regulated at the federal level, in order that all Americans can benefit from the health advantages of medical marijuana use.
Health Benefits
There is a long history in the U.S. of using marijuana for its health benefits. Zimmerman (2015) recounts that an Irish physician, William O'Shaughnessy, popularized the use of marijuana for health purposes in both Britain and America after having seen it used for this purpose in India. It was only in the late 1800s that this usage began to fall out of favor, in particular as the federal government sought to regulate drugs, which at the time were both popular and destructive. While the target of this effort was initially morphine, marijuana was swept up as well. In 1937, the Marihuana Tax Act "imposed such high taxes on physicians prescribing marijuana, retail pharmacists selling cannabis and those cultivating medical cannabis that it fell out of favor as a treatment (Zimmerman, 2015).
Yet, marijuana's health benefits have not changed from the days when it was commonly prescribed. It is used to help manage pain, to combat nausea in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, to help people suffering from anxiety and has been demonstrated effective in the treatment of glaucoma, an eye disease.(Terrie 2015) Very limited uses for chemically altered forms of THC have been approved by the FDA for medical use, but not the plant form. The ban, unfortunately, makes it more difficult to do tests on smoking marijuana (Zimmerman 2015). Much of the data is self-reported, but studies have been conducted in Europe or other places where there is less legal risk associated with doing so.
Monetary Benefits
Medical benefits should be a convincing enough case, if one has compassion, but even those who prefer cold, hard numbers will find the case for legalization to be quite potent. Taxing marijuana has tremendous revenue potential. After Colorado legalized recreational marijuana it earned $44 million in tax revenues, a figure that climbed to $73.5 million in just the first seven months of 2015 -- this stuff is green gold for state treasuries (Keyes 2015).
There is, as many will argue, a trade-off, because access to marijuana is greater, even with medical legalization, and of course there are fewer taxes collected on medical. Yet, the evidence from the states that allow medical marijuana is that there are effective controls put into place to avoid the abuse of marijuana. Because the federal government has maintained its prohibition stance, states have been free to define their own controls. Most states require a person to have a medical marijuana card, and obtaining one of these requires certification by a physician. The patchwork of laws ranges from the very tight -- where marijuana is only legal in very weak forms or for very serious conditions, to the distinctly liberal (Zimmerman 2015). The common thread between the states, with all their different forms of controls on the use of marijuana, is that there are no reported problems with abuse, either by adults or by minors. There is basically zero evidence of harm, and in truth there never was.
A federal solution, however, will require federal safety requirements to be applied. This is not necessarily a bad thing. There are some benefits to federal regulation of marijuana. First, such regulation will allow for a consistent product. Buying on the black market can result in overdose, as potency and dosage can vary significantly, especially with edibles. The more people know about the product, the better they can manage their consumption, but with federal regulations consumption will be even easier to manage. A prescription system will deliver a consistent product tailored to individual needs, same as with any other prescription. If the government can regulate opioids, it can regulate marijuana, which is much less dangerous. Plus, with legalization and regulation, production is taken out of any criminal hands, and will ultimately end up in corporate hands.
The Counterargument
There are definitely those who oppose the legalization of marijuana. Some people feel that the plant is addictive -- it has never been demonstrated to be such. Some people fear that more widespread access will encourage greater use. While that is true, this is typically among adults. . Teenagers already report having better access to marijuana -- and other illegal drugs -- than they do to alcohol. Since no legalization scheme -- medical, recreational or otherwise -- would allow teenagers to access marijuana anyway, nothing changes for that segment of the population. If anything, marijuana will be harder to obtain, much like alcohol is now, because teens would have to buy it from somebody who has a vested interest in saying "no." "
There are also arguments against legalization in that there is not much evidence for medical uses. This is mostly a function, however of its illegality. Much more dangerous drugs are available for medical uses, and seem to be accepted.. What is morphine if not heroin? Anecdotal evidence suggests that medical marijuana is beneficial to those who are suffering. Furthermore, what evidence there does exist -- Terrie (2015) cites numerous sources -- shows that medical marijuana has the beneficial effects that its advocates say it has. The "we don't know it works" argument is a thin veneer of a case, used as a smokescreen for the moral arguments above, which hold no water in a secular society where laws should be based on evidence.
Marijuana should be legalized for medical purposes nationwide. There is ample evidence to suggest that marijuana has positive health effects for a number of different… [END OF PREVIEW]

Liberated Africans Project
Daphne, Zanzibar, 1868
The need for collaborative research related to the global diaspora of Africans and their descendants is challenging because the documentation is extensive, multilingual and scattered around the world in hundreds of archives, libraries, churches, courthouses, government offices, museums, ports and personal collections. The overall aim of the Liberated Africans Project is to bring together as much data as possible regarding the transnational links between these international courts and piece together the lives of over 200,000 Liberated Africans from the worldwide collection of sources to open them up for further research and discussion. Most cases brought before this network of international courts involved a slave ship and therefore links into Voyages: The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database, which contains information for over 35,000 slave ships. The Registers of Liberated Africans also tie into African Origins, a project intended to determine the ethnic origins of enslaved people through the linguistic interpretation of documented African names. Currently, the "African Names Database" not only includes the African names recorded by the Courts of Mixed Commission, but upwards of another 82,000 names documented in comparable Registers of Liberated Africans made at Vice Admiralty and Mixed Commission Courts operating from Freetown, Sierra Leone. The website also ties into the initiatives of Slave Biographies: The Atlantic Database Network, which addresses the need for collaborative research by pulling together varied documentation on the identities, ethnicities, skills, occupations and illnesses of individual Africans and their descendants throughout the Atlantic World. Lastly, the website has also started to incorporate church records from Cuba digitized in 2003, which are available at Ecclesiastical & Secular Sources for Slave Societies. We also hope to start working in partnership with other archives and libraries throughout the world as the Liberated Africans Project expands.

The occasion is the first-ever northern states regional meet of the Gender Community of United Nations sponsored Solution Exchange – a online platform for e-discussions. The event will have deliberations, discussions, presentations and experience sharing on the topic of "Involving men as Partners in prevention of gender-based violence''.
Social Activist and Actor, Rahul Bose, who is a Resource Group and Advisory Team Member of Solution Exchange for Gender Community is likely to be present on the occasion.
"The event will also witness a fruitful partnership among the civil society organisations members as well as UN Volunteers – many of them would meet each other for the first time, though they had been participating in the e-discussions on the Gender Community on UN Solution Exchange site on a variety of topic related to gender," said Malika Basu, the UN Volunteer and the event convenor.
The meeting is being held to commemorate the 'International Year of the Youth - 2010' and will be supported by Partners for Prevention, UNIFEM, UNICEF, National Foundation for Communal Harmony (NFCH), OXFAM India - Lucknow, Find Your Feet, Sahbhagi Shiksha Kendra, and CASA. The activities of the Regional Meet will also discuss 'Involving Youth in Communal Harmony'.
"The two chosen themes are highly pertinent for the six northern states, which would represent their cases and knowledge on the issue during the meet," said Augustine Valiath, the communication specialist at UNICEF Lucknow office. According to him, the aim of "Promoting Partnerships" is to promote sharing among development practitioners of the region, so that they learn from each other, share and collaborate and thereby advocate 'zero tolerance' for violence in any form – be it gender based violence or communal violence. Augustine said both types of violence affect girls and women disproportionately. It will facilitate practitioners work towards changing the practices and attitudes that provoke, perpetrate and pardon violence (of any kind).
The two-day event will bring together Solution Exchange Gender Community members as well as others representing Government, NGOs, academic institutions and development organisations from six Northern States viz. Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh.
During the Meet, Many organisations will put up their stalls to display their organisational work on the themes chosen for the event. There will be two panel discussions on the two themes, which will focus on innovative initiatives; challenges in success of initiatives; determining proactive steps to meet the challenges and suggesting follow-up actions on priority basis. At the end of the discussion, the panel will come up with specific guidelines or recommendations with inputs from participants.
The event will end on 08 May evening with United Nations Volunteers, leading a mega event involving all participants to bring out a symbolic message on "promoting partnerships."

2007 Chrysler 300 ReviewCarGurus https://www.cargurus.com
I think the 300 is great in concept. From my experience I feel that it was poorly produced and better parts should have been used. I feel the same in regards to the Magnum and Charger of the same generation.

"The Cadillac handles like a dream. Its is almost has if you are walking on air."
Looks/Style Ranked 2007 Cadillac DTS better.

Front Seats Ranked 2007 Cadillac DTS better.

Family Car Ranked 2007 Cadillac DTS better.

2007 Chrysler 300 Touring RWDReview
Great Family Car!!!! — The car is an overall great car. Looks good, comfortable/ smooth ride. Very good handling, makes a a fun driving experience. The 3.5 L engine is very responsive and powerful, while delivering better fuel economy. The trim of the interior could be better, as other vehicles of this year are well beyond what the crysler 300 has to offer. The crysler 300 strikes me as a family car, and unfortunatly doesn't gold its value very well.
Primary Use: Commuting to work
Pros: Stylish , sport + luxury. Powerful engine. Soft touch dash( great if in accident).
Cons: Too pricey for the trim. Fuel economy could be better ( but it is a full size car) , doesn't hold value well.

2007 Chrysler 300 SRT8 RWDReview
I'll Miss It... — This car was the compromise between family and cargo room vs what I wanted in performance. The ex wanted a big grocery getter while I wanted something with decent power and good looks. Even with a 12" subwoofer and box in the trunk, there is still a lot of cargo room back there to bring back a good sized load of groceries. In the backseat, there is more than enough room for two other family members with the carseat in the middle. With roughly 360 HP at the wheels, (425 rated at the engine), there is a lot of power available to have fun in as well.
Primary Use: Commuting to work
Pros: Very comfortable and luxurious with plenty of power stock and a great aftermarket for even more power and customization.
Cons: Many will say the fuel economy sucks, but with this size of engine and the weight of the car, it's actually pretty good.

2007 Chrysler 300 RWDReview
Overall The Car Is Awesome!!!! — The car is superb and excellent with very little flaws. It compares with the modern sports cars with power to weight ratio. The 5.7L HEMI is so reliable and durable. I would definately recommend it to my friends to get one if they were looking for a new car.
Primary Use: Family transportation
Pros: great power and handling. The looks are very excellent. I have the Great Americana Edition and fully loaded. the emblems set the car off with the emblems inside the car as well. lots of features like TCS and fuel saver mode in the 5.7L HEMI. I average around 32 MPG on the highways.
Cons: it does drink alot of fuel around town but it is what you get when you own a V8. the 18" wheels are expensive when replacing them.

2007 Chrysler 300 RWDReview
Nice Car — I enjoy driving this car everyday. Wonderful for a large family. Good on gas mileage and sits high off the road. Could use more power but you can always go for the V8. Nice car, made me a fan! Solid car.
Primary Use: Commuting to work
Pros: Large and roomy vehicle. Great on gas mileage. Perfect for a family. Very stylish vehicle. Sits high off the road and is perfect for road trips.
Cons: Due to the size the V6 could use some more power.

2007 Chrysler 300 SRT8 RWDReview
Black Beast — This car was truely a BEAST - 6.1L SRT engine with KN cold air intake, magnaflow midpipes, no cats, and a custome dyno tune to bring it all together for just over 400hp at the wheels. Zero to 60 times in the mid 4s, Quarter miles in the upper 12's on street tires (traction limited). It was a sleeper too because nobody, including several crotch rockets, thought a car this big could be that fast!
Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)
Pros: Amazing performance
Cons: Horrible fuel economy

2007 Chrysler 300 Touring RWDReview
Great — its a great car it handles very wheel rwd not as good as awd the ride does get alittle worse when you put 22s under the body. the car is great to drive comfortable and quiet. the v6 is still very powerful for being in such a heavy car.
Primary Use: Commuting to work
Pros: the looks and handling
Cons: weight

Luv It Other Than Not Enough Power — luv this car. had it for about 3yrs and just had to put a new motor in it. found a good deal on a charger 3.5l motor with only 34k miles on it and dropped it strait in. it seems like it has a little more power but not sure if its jus because it has had a tuneup with installation.
Pros: looks and handleing
Cons: power

Saturday night 2/12/2016 ~ 9:45PM. Victim Nina Hale, 68. 48th Street south of Ray Road, Phoenix (the "Ahwatukee" area of Phoenix).
Victim wasn't in a crosswalk — case closed! I should admit right up front I have no particular idea of what actually happened. It is quite possible, likely even, that the driver was doing nothing legally wrong — i.e. they already said he didn't seem to be impaired, and it's likely he was driving within what is considered a reasonable speed — and the victim was doing "everything" legally wrong, because a pedestrian outside of a crosswalk must yield to any vehicles on the roadway. That said, this is going to turn into a rant about high-speed arterial roadway design so beloved by sunbelt traffic engineers… Continue reading "Woman killed crossing street in Ahwatukee"

I find in your musings a kindred spirit. Today's is an affirmation that I am not alone. And, virtually, I was with you all for a bit, pondering thoughts outside this busy routine we call life.
As I read your post to my husband, who sees me off to teach Art to 7th graders every morning, I had to pause, regroup, and recall with him our experiences similar to yours.
Thank you from La Porte, Texas, for a contemplative way to start this rambunctious day.

Thank you for your kind thoughts Grandmama Sarah. I never know if there are readers or I am just quietly chatting to ghosts in my head. I'm glad there is a kindred soul out there. How wonderful to be teaching art. Most kids love art so it is a rewarding task but also restores confidence and humanity to children for whom that is their preferred mode of thinking. Enjoy your day.

Thanks purpleshoes_art I think that is how art happens. We see and respond to moments and begin a little internal dialogue of naming experiences and describing sensations. These words take on their own life and give us a framework for experiencing something else in a meaningful way. Thanks for reading.

Protesters Demand ExorcismPosted by Sean on March 21st, 2009
I've heard of workers striking for better wages and better hours, but never workers striking for a demon free workplace. Indian and Sri Lankan factory workers in Jordan have done just that. Claiming that the Jordanian industrial factories they work in are haunted by evil spirits, they have taken to the streets refusing to work until the factories are exorcised.

Sandberg Gives Thumbs Up - Peoria Times- Observer headline today
DeWayne says the delay of a vote last night was "only about a decision over location". Surely it couldn't be that Gary didn't have the 6 votes he needed to dump $35 more million dollars on the property tax payers who reside in the City of Peoria
I suspect it will be an interesting council meeting on June 24. It may all boil down to common sense.
There are only two sure things I'm told; death and taxes. I might add "big" egos and facts that get in the way of intelligent decisions.
My challenge to meet with me at Lakeview Library and show me a library "bursting at it's seams", inadequate parking and people using computers for "intellectual development." You know you can't or you would. Invite Mike Bailey, who lives in tazewell County and doesn't pay Peoria property taxes. People who own computers say they use the libraries computers because everything is "free".
I say a lot of young people are using the free library computers because they don't want their parent or parents to see what use they are making of these unsupervised computers.

Here's my question: as a property tax payer who thinks it is a good idea to have a fully tax supported new library, how do I stop government from picking my pocket to pay for an airport that I don't use and never will? Why do I have to subsidize CAT execs flying to and from business meetings and middle class SUV drivers who want to fly down to Naples for Chistmas? I'm looking at my property tax bill right now:
Library $172.03
Airport $112.30
Airport Pensions $ 6.44
Maybe somebody will post a response telling me how valuable the airport is, maybe it creates jobs (Fedex, UPS, etc.), maybe people fly into Peoria who otherwise might go somewhere else, I'don't know. Maybe Merle will tell us why the airport is so "vital" to the area. Still, I don't use it, therefore I shouldn't have to pay for it. Right? Wrong. My point is that, just like the airport, or the transit district, or the park district, or the civic center, the library is a governmental service that, while anyone could say we don't actually need and shouldn't support with taxes, but we still have them. Why? Because we the people, through our legislative bodies, say that we would rather live in a community that has these things than one that doesn't. I may think that the airport is a waste and the library is tax money well spent; well we've got both, so tp you and me both I say; live with it and quit wining about how high your property taxes are. If you don't want to pay for these things, just move.

People are moving and new arrivals are buying in areas surrounding Peoria.
I seldom use the airport. For the areas I visit, it is much cheaper to fly out of Bloomington.
As to $35 million for libraries we already have 8 area libraries to use. Only one, Lakeview, is what I would call busy. I visit them all and observe. Maybe you haven't read my 15 blogs and 2 letters to the editors on the subject.
We have far greater priorities for property taxes than more unsupervised computers in public libraries.
And more romance books that can be owned cheaply at used bookstores, Walmart and library and museum book sales.
As to property taxes, you haven't seen anything yet.
Wait and see.

In the tradition of The Protector, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the This Man series delivers a steamy, suspenseful new standalone romance about a British alpha hero and the one woman who may be able to save him-as long as he can protect her from his dark past.
Gentleman Sinner, an all-new standalone contemporary romance by #1 New York Times bestselling author Jodi Ellen Malpas, is live!
Jodi Ellen Malpas' stand-alone contemporary romance,
GENTLEMAN SINNER is LIVE!
White knows of the darkness in this world. After all, she escaped it long ago. Determined not to let her past beat her, Izzy has a secure, stable life with a job she loves in nursing. But one act of kindness will completely upend everything she's so carefully built-putting her right back in the crosshairs of danger she's been so desperate to avoid.
When Theo Kane shows up like a knight in shining armor, Izzy can't help thinking she's been saved from one threat and exposed to another. His imposing physique, the harsh lines of his face, and the wariness of everyone who comes close are just a few clues to Theo Kane's notorious reputation. The man is positively terrifying. But with Izzy, he's tender and a complete gentleman, and her fascination with the mysterious beast of a man becomes too powerful for her to walk away.
As Theo's demons come to light, running becomes even more impossible. And yet staying together could doom them both.

What I can say about Jodi's books that can be summed up in just a few words to entice you into reading them, mmm…I would have to say unapologetically British! I know some authors write their books in American English to appeal to a wider audience but not Ms. Malpas! She doesn't mess about! I'm sure her fans across the world have got used to the lingo by now so they will be delighted. As a true Brit, it was music to my ears!
"With Theo in my present, I know my past can't touch me."
I honestly never thought this author could come close to the love I have Jesse Ward from the This Man series but she's certainly giving him a run for his money. Ok, so let's discuss Theo Kane in more detail because let's face it, I've teased you just a little. He's definitely of the Alpha Male variety without a doubt but like them all; they have a weak spot. He's also dangerous, utterly gorgeous, of course, downright irresistible. I'm not going to tell you why he's so like he is as it's heart-breaking but rest assured, you'll understand his manner and why he chooses to live the life the way he does. Izzy sees him as a contradiction, hard on the outside but also oh so soft and vulnerable underneath. Theo has more than suffered and now he thinks he should pay for his past but along comes Izzy who effectively blows that strategy straight out of the window.
"I haven't just dipped a toe into Theo's world. I've dived headfirst."
Izzy also has a past which she does her best to hide. When Theo meets her, she feels she's safe but at the same time also on high alert for any potential threats. Izzy isn't interested in Theo to start out with but soon succumbs to his advances. Little does she know her world is about to be rocked. She's a strong character; feisty and not at all one to be wooed but it seems she's immune to Theo's advances. Yes, ladies, he's that irresistible.
"For a big dude, you're quite cute."
"For a little female, you're quite fierce."
I have to admit at one point I thought I knew where this story was going and I did feel a little let down, but then the story took me in a completely different direction. After this, I couldn't turn the pages quick enough. The shock in this story wasn't the story per se, no, it was the fact that Ms. Malpas went over to the dark side. In all her books we have angst, passion, unbelievable chemistry from the main protagonists but never a storyline which took that particular turn. For some, it may be a little too much but for me who likes a touch of dark suspense it was fantastic and fit both the story and characters perfectly.
"If God thought it was too late for you, I wouldn't be here. He wouldn't have sent me to you."
As ever Ms. Malpas storytelling is masterful and the supporting characters were fabulous. Although the story was suspenseful, deep and thrilling at times you also got the witty banter between Izzy and her bestie, Jess. She was an absolute breath of fresh air! The potential for her and Theo's main man, Callum, is huge so let's hope we get a little more from these two.
With this book, I got what I crave in a story; a beginning which laid the foundations perfectly for what was to come. The middle which gave you the plight between Theo and Izzy and an absolutely perfect ending! This author has a knack for giving you a perfect epilogue and that's exactly what I got. I can tell you one thing; after the last 20% of the book, you definitely needed that ending!
My love for her holds me prisoner
Her faith leaves me in awe
Her hope encourages mine
And her touch reaches my soul
She is my peace
My cure
My love
Theo Kane
From Gentleman Sinner
Meet Jodi
Jodi Ellen Malpas wrote her debut series, The This Man Trilogy, in secret, worried about what people might think if they knew what her imagination was capable of. She was shocked herself. But she finally found the courage to unleash her creative streak and self-published THIS MAN – the first book of the This Man Trilogy – in October 2012. She took a chance on the story with a hero who soon became one of modern day fictions most prolific alpha male characters. Jesse Ward – also affectionately known as The Lord of The Manor, sparked incredible reactions from women across the globe and catapulted Jodi into the world of romance.
She was soon signed by Grand Central Publishing, part of the Hachette Book Group, and the third book of the trilogy, This Man Confessed, took Jodi to the top of the bestsellers lists, earning her the proud title of #1 New York Times Bestselling Author. This Man has since been voted one of the top romance novels of all time. With so much love and enthusiasm for her words, Jodi suddenly wasn't afraid of her imagination anymore and has since let it run riot. Writing powerful love stories and creating addictive characters has become her passion—a passion she now shares with her devoted readers.
Jodi was born and raised in the Midlands town of Northampton, England, where she lives with her real-life man, her boys, and a beagle. She is a self-professed daydreamer, a Converse and mojito addict, and has a terrible weak spot for alpha males. Her work is now published in more than twenty-five languages across the world.

Topic : Project resource capacity planning template excel.
Author : Durrant Thomson.
Published : Wed, Sep 18th 2019 14:02 PM.
Format : jpg/jpeg.
Without proper planning it is impossible to succeed no matter how much capital you have. On the other hand, if you have a fool-proof plan you can make a lot of money in a very short amount of time. This article will guide you through the planning process so that you can improve your chances of success.
Then, standard business plan templates typically have parts that need filling up. They are mostly about ratios of operation, marketing and strategy plans, cash flow statements, and balance sheets. In addition, executive summaries are extremely vital. And these may seem really difficult for individuals who have never transacted any business in the past. Fortunately, business plan templates will efficiently guide these individuals through each document.
First of all we need to determine what constitutes a good business plan template. Firstly it should provide information and guidelines about all the important aspects of business. If it lacks information or is not detailed enough then your company will face the consequences. Secondly, the business plan template should be completely realistic and the profit estimates should be prudent. Lastly it should teach you how to conduct research to fill in the blanks and come up with a more detailed plan.
