- MANAGEIndia showcases PMI Chennai Chapter's Flood Relief Efforts
In the true spirit of volunteering and community service, PMI India Chennai Chapter (PMICC) identified three schools that had suffered significant damage during the December flood for rehabilitation, of which work has been completed in two schools. The beneficiaries are Ashok Nagar Girls Higher Secondary School and the Chennai High School in Kotturpuram. Work in the third school, the Chennai High School in Teynampet, is currently underway.
Prasannaa Sampathkumar, secretary, PMICC, said, "Soon after the flood, our members approached schools in the most impacted Chennai and Cuddalore districts in order to evaluate the damage and identify immediate requirements. We finalized on the Ashok Nagar Girls Higher Secondary School as our first project as part of PMICC Chennai Flood Rehabilitation Program." The other two schools were taken up in the second phase.
The Ashok Nagar school has 100 classrooms and a total strength of over 3,500 students. Several of its classrooms were under 6-8 feet of water during the flood, leading to damage to the floors, furniture, books, stationary, and electrical fittings.
Once the school produced its list of requirements, chapter volunteers, led by Sriram Raghavan, vice-president, certification, conducted an independent assessment and verified the requirements on 12 December. The school immediately needed repair or replacement of black boards, light fittings and ceiling fans, painting of classroom furniture, other carpentry work, and a new water filter plant.
On 18 December, the team finalized the scope of immediate requirements as blackboard painting, painting of classroom furniture, and the fixing of lights and other electrical fittings in five classrooms. The team crashed the project schedule and completed the work during the one-week school holiday during Christmas and New Year. Chapter volunteers Koushik Srinivasan, Syed Razik, and R.M. Pradeepkumar, along with Mr. Raghavan, took care of the coordination among the school, chapter, and vendors identified for the works.
For Chennai High School, Kotturpuram, the chapter has helped with audio headsets for the computer lab, lights fixtures, steel storage units, and ground restoration. The chapter board is now assessing the requirements for the Teynampet school.
Funds for the projects have come from collections from chapter members and corporates. The chapter has so far received Rs. 1.75 lakh, following a call for support that the chapter board had made during a special session on 26 December.
The chapter has also committed to supporting the Ashok Nagar school for some of its long-term requirements such as dustfree boards, tube lights, desks, chairs and notice board.
Chapter president, P. Ramasubramaniam, said, "We want to create long-term value through education related projects. It aligns best with the chapter's and PMI's overall vision. We are now identifying future projects to bring into this scope."

It seems like a lot of folks who have never been to Mardi Gras in New Orleans have a limited conception of what Mardi Gras is and what it's all about, so I thought I'd take some time to shed a little light on the history of Mardi Gras.
Many see Mardi Gras as little more than a big, drunken party with lots of costumes and wild women – sort of like spring break meets Halloween. This image of Mardi Gras attracts some, repels many others, and frustrates those who know it is an oversimplification and, as such, dead wrong.
Not that Mardi Gras can't be all of those things – in the right place and the right time, this venerable, old celebration can be a very wild time. Take Bourbon Street after a Mardi Gras parade, for example.
But that's not all of what Mardi Gras is – not by a long shot.
What Is Mardi Gras?
First and foremost, "Mardi Gras" is French for Fat Tuesday – part of the Catholic tradition of celebrating and eating rich foods the day before Lent, a 6-week period of somber and penitent fasting leading up to Easter. The carnival season that culminates with Mardi Gras actually begins on January 6th – Epiphany, in Catholic tradition – but the kind of parades and celebrations we associate with Mardi Gras don't begin in New Orleans until later – that's probably a good thing.
A Little HistoryMardi Gras is celebrated all over the world with origins that can be traced back to medieval Europe. It was first celebrated on our shores in 1703 at what was to become Mobile, Alabama.
New Orleans was established in 1718 and, by the 1730s, Mardi Gras was being celebrated here, though not with parades. Instead, the upper class observed the holiday with elegant, masked society balls – early models for the New Orleans Mardi Gras balls held today.
When the Spanish took over, however, Mardi Gras was out and the ban wasn't lifted until 1827, even though Spanish rule had long been gone. The revitalized celebrations now took on more of the profile they have today with street processions led by masked "krewes." Newspapers began to report on and announce Mardi Gras celebrations in advance – giving us the first mention of "throws" in 1870.
Krewes? Throws? We've run out of space for now but, next time around we'll explore some more of the details of Mardi Gras. If you *really* want to know what Mardi Gras is all about, there's no substitute for being here! Now is an excellent time to make your Mardi Gras travel plans but New Orleans Bed and Breakfasts tend to fill during Mardi Gras, so I'd book soon!

I don't think he will be back this season. I don't see the point in rushing him back. Nashville needs him for the long haul.
I hope that is a good sign to a comback this season per NHL.com : The Tennessean reported Wednesday that Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne was on the ice with his teammates for practice for the first time since undergoing surgery for a hip infection in October. In nine games before leaving the lineup, Rinne had a 2.31 goals-against average and .917 save percentage.

A recent decision by the Grand Sheikh of Al-Azhar, Mohamed Sayed Tantawi to express misgivings about young girls or women wearing the niqab has stirred up a controversy in Egypt and other Muslim nations. Tantawi told an eleven year old to remove the niqab because she was in an all-girls school and there was no need for hide her face. He also told the media that most Muslim scholars do not find any evidence in the Koran about the need for women to wear a niqab and cover their faces. The Supreme Council of Al-Azhar issues a ban on any teachers or female students to wear the niqab and made clear scholar do not consider it an Islamic obligation. The Minister of Education said women had to remove their niqab on entering a university for security reasons.
Some Al-Azhar officials claim there have been reports that men wear a niqab to gain entry into the university and this is still another reason to ban the niqab. All religions become involved in great debates over minor issues. I suspect God doesn't care if Jewish or Muslims or anyone wants to cover their heads.

The logo DOES NOT have to include the name of the company, the logo MAY be an image where we just have the name and address written later. Either option is acceptable, depending upon the logo.
The logo should be scalable. It should work (be readable/recognizable) on any media be it four feet wide in color on the side of a truck, one color on a t-shirt, in a black and white fax or scaled down on a promotional pen.
The company provides electrical installations from outlets and lights and wires, to generator installations and solar panels. No one aspect needs to be focused upon even though our name has "sun" in it.
It can be immediately recognizable as related to the electric industry, or it can be somewhat conceptual. However, while we are open minded to conceptual image logos we wish it to have SOME relationship to what we do.

For some people the act of walking in to a shopping mall during a huge sale makes them sort of shake like they are on crack and for me and my friend Mouse, walking into Scrap for the first time, it caused a similar reaction. How could I not have known about this place? True, the location could not be less in the middle of nowhere and in San Francisco that is quite a trick. But still, I have no excuse.
Scrap, which their pamphlet calls "a creative reuse center and workshop space" came about in 1976, way before recycling and Green became trendy, as a resource for artists and teachers. Scrap also set out to promote environmental awareness and creative reuse.

Every season a number of Arsenal players go out on loan to gain valuable first-team experience and the 2010/11 campaign was no different.
Arsenal.com have tracked the progress of the loanees throughout the season and our 'Loan Review' series will examine each player in turn. Today we focus on Sanchez Watt.
Sanchez Watt
After spending the final two months of last season at Leeds, Sanchez rejoined Simon Grayson's side on a season-long loan in August.
Despite making his mark with some exciting performances at the beginning of the campaign, he was hampered by several injuries that limited his playing time throughout the season.
"Playing in the Championship makes you push yourself more, rather than playing in the Reserves," he told Arsenal.com in January. "You are playing against men and it's all about the three points. I'm enjoying it up here, they are treating me like family and giving me a lot of confidence."
Sanchez impressed on a return to Emirates Stadium as the Yorkshire side earned an FA Cup Third-Round replay in January, an experience he enjoyed every minute of.
"Obviously I'm going to give my all for Leeds. I'm 19 and I'm glad to be playing in big games like this with all eyes on me to see how I do. I'm glad I performed. Every time I play I try and give my all. I didn't want to let myself down, Arsenal down or Leeds down. It was an odd feeling but I think I did well," he said.
The midfielder made 12 starts and 13 substitute appearances as Leeds finished seventh and just missed out on the play-offs.
Richard Sutcliffe of the Yorkshire Evening Post:
"He has been in and out really. Leeds had him last season and got him back because they liked what they saw but it's not really happened for him.
"He's probably been a victim of the fact that Leeds play with a front four, Robert Snodgrass, Luciano Becchio, Jonny Howson and Max Gradel, and all four have done really well so his chances have been limited.
"He's also had a hamstring problem for a lot of the season. I would have thought he will go back to Arsenal feeling a bit frustrated and it's not necessarily been his fault.
"The Leeds fans liked him and, particularly during the last few months of the season when he was fit, I think they would like to have seen a bit more of him.
"Leeds went with the same line-up towards the end of the season, when results weren't quite going for them, and Watt had a couple of good games coming from the bench. You thought 'why not start with him?' But it never really happened for him."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Accommodating, comfortable and relaxing are the best descriptions for this well maintained home away from home.
Our family spent the New Years holiday in this fabulous condo. The condo is super clean, spacious and comfortable with everything you need! The veiws from the balcony and the sunsets were incredible! The pool was heated and was a perfect temperature (and we like a warm pool!). We are extremely happy that we chose this condo for our vacation and would love to visit here again! The owners are amazing! They are super accomodating and are wonderful to work with-we feel like we have made some new friends! They have great info in the condo- things to do in the area- and they welcomed our family with wine for us and popcorn and candies for the kids. We appreciate all that they did to make this a great, memorable vacation. We will be recommending this property to our friends.
Clean & well equipped, conveniently located. The owners are lovely & the setting can't be beat! Would definitely return
We've been to Florida for Spring Break every year since 2009 with our kids and this place is in our Top 3. Great price and the view was awesome. The owners are great people to deal with and very responsive. The location on the gulf and the balcony are our # 1 Condo choice. Tried to get this condo again for 2017 but not surprisingly taken early. Never have stayed in a place twice but we were going to for this Condo. I'll be smarter next year and reserve way early. Thanks Dave, Pat and Lori for sharing your beautiful condo with the public.
My family and I LOVED this condo. The views were fabulous and it was a very short walk to the beach. The furniture in the living room was very comfortable and the beds were very comfortable also. Everything we needed was supplied. It is located close to great restaurants and shopping. I will definitely book this condo again!!
we really loved this place. so much that it was hard to not give it 5 stars but we had a couple of small hiccups the owners did address- no parking passes on arrival but did have them early the next morning with no issues. the view- its for real, maybe 100 yds from balcony to water. great sunsets from balcony. I believe better than from the beach because you get a better reflection off the water. the balcony- great wrap around and spacious with plenty of tables and seating. condo is very spacious for 1br/1ba. good appliances, nice flat screen, and wifi. great décor. comfy beds. condo was clean, wouldn't say spotless but certainly clean. nice welcome book and wine. the covered parking is so convenient- very close to elevator and get off on second floor and unit is just to the left. or take the stairs but we never even rode the elevator with anyone else- only 40 units in whole complex and everything is well kept. pool and beach access is gated by way of gate code as well as room has keypad. so no need for any keys when you head to beach. unless you want to use poolside restroom which does require a supplied key. and they were clean. a few beach toys and umbrella/chairs were also supplied- nice touch! screen door on street side to open and draw air in really great weather. you do only have 1 guaranteed parking space but there is visitor space that can be used. we took our Harley so we were able to leave it in the covered parking and put the truck in the visitor parking. there is no trailer parking but we were able to use Seafarer Marine about 5 miles away to store our trailer behind locked gate for the week for only $25. Bus route from Treasure Island to Clearwater stops right out front. You can't go wrong with this unit. A great price for a great condo and super view!!! And owners that you know care about their unit and renters.
Lovely wee spot, feet from a perfect beach. The condo has everything you need and exactly as described, the pool was heated and the covered parking space was handy and feet from the elevator.
Dave and Pat were very nice and Lori was wonderful and ensured that everything was fine.
Would I recommend and stay again? Absolutely, in a heart beat.
Chateaux is located 20 minutes from St Petersburg Clearwater airport, 40 minutes from Tampa International and sits directly on the Gulf of Mexico.

Phoenix Closes Green Bay Soccer Classic in Thrilling Overtime Fashion
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay (3-2-1) men's soccer team closed the Green Bay Soccer Classic in thrilling fashion with an overtime goal to capture the 2-1 victory over Dayton (1-6-0) Sunday at Aldo Santaga Stadium. The goal came with just over five minutes remaining in the second overtime period off the foot of freshman Kirby Allen (Appleton, Wis.) who made a break down the left side of the field.
"I saw the opportunity against the goalie. I thought he was going to come out, I took it a touch wide and he went back and I just kept my composure and just drilled it at the goal and put it in," said Allen. "I've had other goals that have come down to the last second but nothing as big as this."
"Kirby is the type of player that is known for his explosiveness and his speed," said head coach Kris Kelderman. "We were hoping for a play just like that to happen and he got great touches on the ball."
Prior to Allen's goal in the 104th minute, Green Bay did not score since the 27th minute when Sam Krenzien (Wauwatosa, Wis.) got a long pass from Tony Walls (Wauwatosa, Wis.) on the right side of the field. Krenzien scored the header goal from the left side of the box to give the Phoenix the 1-0 lead at the break.
"I thought we had good control of the game from the start, the first half was very good," Kelderman said. "With the goal we scored, we got ourselves to a good spot at halftime."
In the first half Green Bay outshot the Flyers 11-2 while both teams had one corner kick each as Krenzien paced the Phoenix with four shots throughout the opening period of play.
In the 51st minute Green Bay was issued a red card for a penalty in the box, forcing the Phoenix to play with 10 players the remainder of the competition.
"It was an unfortunate play but the guys came together and fought," said Kelderman who picked up his first home victory as head coach of the Phoenix.
Green Bay's red card penalty led to Dayton's only goal of the contest off a free kick situation.
The Phoenix outshot the Flyers 20-3 in regulation and had three corner kicks compared to Dayton's one.
In the first overtime period, Dayton outshot the Phoenix 3-0 and had one corner kick as the Flyers' defense kept Green Bay silent.
In the final overtime period, Luke Goodnetter (Elm Grove, Wis.) took a great shot at the goal but was a bit wide. Green Bay's second and final goal of the game was the thrilling game-winning shot by Allen.
"What I'm most proud of is that I felt that we got stronger and better as the game went on," Kelderman said. "We challenged ourselves after the Niagara game on Friday; we have to consider ourselves winners and I think we did just that by the way we responded."
Green Bay finished the game outshooting Dayton 22-7 and 3-2 on corner kicks. Krenzien led the Phoenix with seven shots while Goodnetter added four.
The Phoenix will open Horizon League play Saturday, Sept. 24 as it hosts Loyola (1-4-1) at 7 p.m. in its annual Alumni Game at Aldo Santaga Stadium.
All-Tournament Team: Eleven players were selected by coaches to the Green Bay Soccer Classic All-Tournament Team.

BEIJING — A Chinese icebreaker docked Thursday at Shanghai after becoming the first vessel from China to cross the Arctic Ocean, a landmark trip that is part of Beijing's efforts to expand its presence in the Arctic.
With melting icecaps accelerating the opening of new shipping routes and the exploration of oil, gas and mineral deposits in the Arctic, China has been eager to gain a foothold in the region.
The icebreaker Snow Dragon returned to Shanghai after wrapping up a three-month mission that took it from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic via the Arctic, the Shanghai-based Polar Research Institute of China said in a statement. The vessel's 119 crew members completed an oceanic survey in waters around Iceland with their Icelandic counterparts.

Newberry Begins Search for New Manager of Troubled Baseball Complex
Published May 15th, 2014
Loading Video...
NEWBERRY, Fla. -- After the man who sold city leaders on building Nations Park pulled out last week, Newberry City Commissioners took the first steps towards finding a new manager for the troubled youth baseball complex.
During a special meeting Wednesday night, commissioners unanimously voted to begin issuing a request for proposals to contract with a new manager of the park.
The move comes one week after the facility's original owner -- Lou Presutti -- notified the city he would back out of his contractual duties to run the park and attract tournaments to the area.
City leaders seem hopeful a new manager will be the key to the ballpark's turnaround.
"Coach Lou Presutti and the city is at a crossroads," said Commissioner Tim Marden. "We're kind of looking at amicably parting ways."
"We've got lots of teams that love to play there, but we need a management team to attract the teams and to market the facility," said Newberry Mayor Bill Conrad.
Nations Ballpark opened in March of last year. Under the park's contract, city leaders were hoping it would host at least 12 tournaments a year -- they had less than half that number last year.
Until a new management firm can be found, the Elite Pro Baseball Academy -- which is based in Newberry -- will manage the facility through Jan. 1.

Monday July 23rd, 2012 5:22pm
Saturday marked the first day of the ComLax.com Powerball Lacrosse Tournament. We couldn't ask for more perfect weather here in Atlantic City. While it may have been a bit overcast, it was cool and breezy, which is a nice change coming from the oppressive heat and humidity of Baltimore.
Danica Strutt MacMullan and I were tasked with managing the field for the Lady Luck Division — i.e. making sure scores and stats were being kept and handling any other issues or questions that were thrown our way — while also playing for Lightning Wear. Needless to say, after three games and working all day at the fields, we're beat. But as always with these summer tournaments, it's totally worth it because it's so much fun! Who doesn't want to hang out on a nice summer day and watch and play lax with your friends!?
Our day started off a little rocky, as we only had eight players from our 20-player roster at the field when our game was supposed to start at 9:00 this morning. Since the rules say you need at least nine to play, we had to forfeit our first game, which put us out of contention for the tournament's top seed in the playoffs. This also means we'll play at 9:30 tomorrow morning versus being in the other semifinal at 11:00. We still played the game — went 8-on-8 full field until the rest of our team arrived — and beat Cap City 9-8.
Maybe I should back track a little, though, and give you a little bit of background on the Lady Luck Division at this tournament. There are four teams: Lightning Wear (us!), Cap City, S.I.N.S (which stands for Sorry I'm not Sorry) and ReLax. Cap City consists of a group of players from Cornell and Virginia Tech with a few from all sorts of other areas, ReLax are mostly Long Island players and S.I.N.S. is made up of players who played at Arizona State.
Each team played every other team in the division today to set the seeding for tomorrow's playoffs. Here are the results and the seedings for tomorrow:
Cap City 1, Lightning Wear 0 (forfeit)
ReLax 17, S.I.N.S 6
Lightning Wear 17, S.I.N.S. 5
Cap City 16, ReLax 6
Cap City 16, S.I.N.S. 2
Lightning Wear 15, ReLax 11
And the seedings and matchups for tomorrow's semifinals:
2 Lightning Wear vs. 3 ReLax (9:30 a.m.)
1 Cap City vs. 4 S.I.N.S: (11 a.m.)
Today was a blast! I think the last time I played in a lacrosse game was at last year's Ocean City Tournament and while I've been participating in ILWomen's #wallballstreak for the last month or so, actually getting out on a field and running around is definitely refreshing.
I think we've put together a good team and a lot of credit for that goes to ILWomen contributor Mary Heneberry, who rounded up a solid group of her former Loyola teammates to come out. That group makes up the part of the core of our team. The other part is a group of old friends I've played for years with in Vail and they were able to make the trip down as well.
This is IL's first stab at a summer club tournament and I think it's been great. Atlantic City and Richard Stockton College, where the game fields are, have provided a good backdrop for an event like this. It's made for a good balance of lacrosse and fun, as there are a lot of things to do here once you step off the field. I definitely heard chatter throughout the parking lot and around the fields toward the end of the day between people making plans for this evening. Should be a fun night!
I think all four teams really stepped up when it came to uniforms too, particularly S.I.N.S., who had some fun with theirs. Take a look at the photos:
Thanks to Dan Walsh at Lightning Wear for designing us some fantastic unis!! Loving them!
I think green has been a theme. Must be ILWomen subliminal advertising!
S.I.N.S. got really creative with their uniforms. Each player has her nickname on the back of her pinnie. A lot of them are funny or some inside joke within the team. I found out one player is really into Taco Bell and she has "taco" on her pinnie. She apparently also has a taco-shaped purse. Nice accessorizing!
This group is also apparently celebrating a teammate who is getting married. They went out in downtown Atlantic City for her Bachelorette Party last night. The back on her jersey: "Bride 2B."
We'll be back tomorrow with news on the playoffs and more photos. Follow @PowerballLax on Twitter for the latest updates.

upflushing toilet
like to install one in the basement, is it legal in Ca. ? thanks.
Can't speak for CA (California, Canada?), but I used a Saniflo brand macerating toilet in my home (in Pennsylvania, USA), and it works great.
looked at the "where to buy" section of saniflo's US website (http://www.saniflo.com/) - there are a bunch of distributers/retailers in San Francisco, so I'm assuming that means they are legal in the state of california. There is also a candian version of the saniflow website at http://www.saniflo.ca/, so I'm guessing you'll be good either place, as long as its installed correctly.
that's great news, thank you.

Just wondered if anyone knew any good drills or anythign else to improve punching power? Thanks
Just wondered if anyone knew any good drills or anythign else to improve punching power? Thanks
http://www.facebook.com/craig.st.clair666 ME
"That was how i got my first soapy titwank!
Listening is cool and shit." BlackdogMMA
Theres a few good ideas on ross training using isometrics before power punching heavy bag, building rotational strength in the core etc. .
I put a thread up a while back "increased hand speed " which Ian Butlin and others added some great input, i will try and find it.
RossBoxing/Training is a great site, if anyone is an XL I have a Ross boxing Warrior Tshirt "new" , I can send them. First one to PM me your address gets it.
If you need a friend, get a dog !
As hinted at by Bateman. Punching power is the result of increased speed.
I believe the equation is speed x distance = force or Speed/distance = force.... someone more scientific can confirm
Speed is typically the result of good technique and (as you are a guitarist) you know, to develop speed you need to perfect the technique slowly and build up. So focus on the correct technique, slowly speed it up, stay relaxed, breath and power will come.
There are exceptions to the rule. Some people who are blessed with power... they can generate devastating KO power, without the perfect technique... I have met maybe 3-4 who really fell into this catagory
Cheers lads I'll have look for that thread Bateman that sounds exactly what I'm after!
Yeah I'm guessing treat it like alternate and sweep picking? Start slow perfect it and speed it up?
http://www.facebook.com/craig.st.clair666 ME
"That was how i got my first soapy titwank!
Listening is cool and shit." BlackdogMMA
Force = mass x acceleration
So yes, if your punch has a higher acceleration then the force is greater.
Speed = Distance / Time Nothing to do with force there.
Another way of looking at it is Power = (Force x Distance)/Time
As the time it takes to complete the movement becomes less, the power becomes more. Force x Distance = Work.
It may be better to look at this from a sports science perspective.
Power = The combination of strength and speed
Therefore you can be very strong but have no power. You can also be very fast and have no power. You have to combine them both.
"Punching power is the result of increased speed."
True, but you also need to increase strength too.
Just thought I'd be the geek and confirm that. ;P
Or I may be wrong, if so I'd happily listen to why (mind u, may be best via pm to save the others).
And yeh I meant to include kinetic energy but forgot. ¬¬
Kinetic is probably the best you are right, seeing as it is the channelling of kinetic energy that causes a lot of damage, or so I believe. However, in sports science they use that description of power, which fitted better with the power formula I gave.
But let's not let this devolve into a physics debate. ;P
Also, never underestimate a padman or trainer with a good eye.
I've had guys talk the arseholes out of technique, tried to correct too many things at one, expected too much too soon etc but Gary Pemberton at Cardiff YMCA was just a one word answer to every punch.
Take the jab for example...
Then he'd give you a moment for your body to 'remember' what it did right, slowly inbed it over time and you'd just go looking for that 'yes' again.
A good trainer in a shack is worth 1000 shiney new gyms and 'shortcut' training drills. Everything else is suplimentary.

Kevin Costner Opens Door for 'Bodyguard' Sequel
Having played many memorable characters in various movies from Eliot Ness in "The Untouchables" to Billy Chapel in "For Love of the Game", Kevin Costner never once starred in a sequel to his movies. Nevertheless, it seems that the fact won't last any longer, especially with the buzz on "The Bodyguard" sequel hypening up.
In the latest news related to the actor and his 1992 hit action drama movie, it is reported that the 53-year-old has expressed his interest on reprising his Frank Farmer role in the sequel. Though nothing about the sequel is certain yet, he admitted that he has idea for the story if the studio bosses are up for the project.
To the New York Daily News, Costner said, "Bodyguard could have had one (a sequel)." Sharing his idea further, he denied that Rachel Marron portrayed by Whitney Houston and Frank will be reuniting for the sequel. "No (Marron and Farmer wouldn't reunite)," added Costner, "I think he was true to his word; he didn't want to guard celebrities anymore."
Grossing as much as $410.9 million to date, "The Bodyguard" tells the story of a former Secret Service agent who is hired by music superstar to protect her from a fan who stalks and threatens to kill her. Though garnering considerably mixed reviews, the movie directed by Mick Jackson and written by Lawrence Kasdan sent Houston's song "I Will Always Love You" to be the most successful cover tune ever.

Rating: R for the entire instalment
Word Count: ~1,900
Warnings (if any): none, unless you don't like fluff
Fic Summary: They haven't seen each other since their departure from the lake, but they had promised each other a date...
A/N: This is the next instalment in the Three Weeks of Summer 'verse, which you should read first or this won't make much sense to you. With any luck I'll be posting the next part tomorrow and the last one the day after that. (It's pretty much all written.) Thanks to mixed_berryjam for the beta and coming up with the title for this (which is borrowed from the song Summer Nights). This instalment will be told from Blaine's POV and also include a little bit of backstory for him. (Not in the prologue.) I have several ideas for other instalments, but if there's anything you would like me to write for this 'verse, I also take prompts.
I also have a tumblr where I'll be complaining about the writing process and stuff like that. Come over and follow me, if you like. :)
Part One
Blaine couldn't remember the last time he had been this nervous. He was waiting for Kurt outside the tiny restaurant—it wasn't a fancy place, but the food was okay and the prices affordable for a college student who'd already spent a majority of his savings on a summer holiday by the lake.
His palms were sweating and he rubbed them dry on his dark jeans for the fifth time or so since he'd arrived a few minutes earlier. Despite Kurt's last text he still wasn't quite sure how the night was going to go. He was pretty sure he had planned it out as best he could, but still. This had to be perfect. For Kurt. Nothing else would do.
It had been a long time since Blaine had felt about anyone the way that he felt about Kurt and he really didn't want to screw this up by being either too casual or by expecting too much and scaring Kurt away.
He knew he could come off as clingy, and he didn't want that. He also knew that the easygoing, fun-loving side of himself often made people think he wasn't serious, and he didn't want that either. He wanted... Kurt. Simple as that. He wanted him so much it scared him. They had known each other for only a few weeks, for crying out loud. He wasn't used to wanting this much so early on. And yet he just... knew that he had stumbled upon something great, something he didn't want to let go off if he could help it at all.
Checking his reflection in the window again, he sighed audibly. There was only so much he could plan and organize. His outfit and overall appearance for tonight was something he would never be quite content with. Kurt basically only knew him in swim shorts—and the occasional jeans and t-shirt ensemble if it had been a cold night back at the lake cabins. He should have gone with a simple shirt instead of the red cardigan. Maybe he should have done something with his hair too. He was pretty sure that Kurt liked his curls, the way he had carded his fingers through them, tugged on them lightly sometimes when they'd been curled up on the dock or at night on Blaine's bed—but they were so... all over the place. He wanted to look nice for Kurt. He wanted to impress him.
Laura had laughed at him when he'd voiced his concerns before leaving. "That boy has touched you places I don't even wanna hear about and seen you the morning after too. And he still agreed to go out with you. Now stop being stupid and go get him, Hobbit." and with that, she had practically shoved him out the door, slamming it in his face.
And yes, Kurt had agreed to go out with him. Kurt. Had agreed. To go out with him. Oh god. Drying his clammy hands on his pants again, he straightened up, trying to breathe away the nerves. He could do this. He wanted to.
His heart did a tap dance in his chest upon hearing the familiar voice behind him. Of course he'd been looking for Kurt in the wrong direction, allowing him to sneak up behind Blaine while he least expected it.
Suddenly, he didn't even have to force the smile onto his face as a rush of happiness made the worry fade into the background for a moment. Turning around, warmth flooded through him as his fingers tingled and he felt himself blush. "Hi."
Kurt's face looked slightly red as well, but his eyes were laughing, crinkling sightly at the corners. Blaine felt his breath hitch as he took in the long, lean lines of his body, the smile on his face, the elegant way he held himself. Holy fuck Kurt was gorgeous. And he was here for him. Blaine didn't know just what he'd done right in his short years on this planet to give him this (he didn't recall saving anyone from a burning building or inventing a cure for cancer at some point in his life, he hadn't even carried any old lady's shopping bags recently), but he didn't even care. Didn't want to question it. Not tonight. Kurt was here. Kurt was here and that was all he knew right now. Everything else he would figure out later. They had time. (He hoped.)
He realized they had been staring at each other for what felt like about a minute and he was sure the grin on his face probably bordered on demented by now. He quickly cleared his throat and looked away, rubbing the back of his neck with one hand. "I—" He broke off, not quite sure what he wanted to say. There was too much and none of it was entirely appropriate for their situation right now. But he was sure that blurting out I missed you so much I couldn't sleep sometimes was probably the best way to make Kurt turn on his heels and leave him standing here like the pathetic, overexcited idiot he was. "We should—it's really good to see you."
"It's good to see you too."
"How's Rachel?" Blaine winced. He didn't want to talk about Rachel. He wanted to... He didn't know what he wanted. He wanted too much. He wanted everything at once.
"She's... good. Busy. You know her." Kurt laughed.
"Yes." Clearing his throat again, he motioned toward the door. "Shall we? Eat? Because that's why we're here. I mean, that's not why, that's just what you do on a date, but maybe we should get on with it then so we can..." What? Blaine shook his head, mentally kicking himself. This was a really great time to start babbling incoherently.
"Oh, sure. We should probably..." Kurt waved a hand in the direction of the restaurant as well. "Sounds good."
"Good," Blaine repeated, standing rooted to the spot. Should he hold the door for Kurt? What was the etiquette for a first date with a guy he had already slept with?
Kurt laughed again and Blaine joined him this time. "This is awkward, isn't it?" He asked.
"Kind of," Kurt agreed, then took a deep breath. "I'm glad you asked me out, though. I'm... just... glad." He shrugged helplessly, the little smile on his face making Blaine's knees wobbly.
"You're welcome," he said lamely.
God, he just wanted to reach out and touch Kurt already. Just have some sort of physical connection. So much of their... thing... by the lake had been physical, he thought he needed it to remind himself of that closeness they had shared. He needed to feel Kurt.
"Okay, then." He put on his best happy face and turned toward the door, thinking things were probably going to be easier once they were inside and seated. They had eaten together before. He knew how to talk to Kurt over dinner. He didn't know yet how to be around him on a sidewalk in New York City. He wasn't usually this bad this either, god. "Let's go."
"Blaine." Kurt reached for his shoulder, just as he was about to open the door. "One more thing."
Blaine shivered at the touch, turning back toward Kurt who was standing much closer all of a sudden, close enough for Blaine to feel his body heat, to smell his cologne and the underlying scent of just Kurt, and Blaine felt lightheaded, dizzy with happiness and hope and longing. "Do you remember what I told you when you asked me out?" He blushed slightly, a hint on nervousness on his features.
Blaine nodded weakly, heart beating double time. He simply couldn't find his voice.
"I said I was going to kiss you."
"You did. Say that." Oh, there was his voice. He just wished it sounded stronger.
"Okay if I do that now? Before we go in?"
"Fine by me." Blaine attempted a playful grin, but he wasn't sure his body was obeying him right now. Kurt was standing so close to him.
"Okay," Kurt breathed, placing both hands on Blaine's shoulders.
Blaine felt his arms lift without conscious thought, his own hands finding Kurt's hips and the simple touch seemed to ground him, his body remembering how to be close to Kurt before his brain caught up to it. He was going to kiss him again. Finally.
He leaned up as Kurt leaned in, breath mingling in between them, and Blaine let his eyes drift shut, overwhelmed by the moment. They were still in the middle of the sidewalk, cars going by and someone shouting at a cab driver in the distance. All of it faded away the instant Kurt's lips brushed against his in a kiss so gentle, so sweet, it simply took his breath away.
It was everything he remembered and much more. He pressed his mouth against Kurt's more firmly, arms sliding around his waist the way they had done many times before as he felt Kurt's lips moving against his, soft and wet and perfect. And then there was a tongue caressing his bottom lip and he had to suppress a groan as his lips parted willingly for Kurt, deepening the kiss as their tongues found each other, and god, he was flying, falling, melting into Kurt in the middle of everyday life on a sidewalk in New York City.
There was such a sweet tenderness in the way Kurt kissed him slowly, for a moment Blaine wasn't sure his poor little heart could take it. It was simply too good, too right, too everything he had wanted this kiss to be.
They parted too soon and Blaine kept his eyes closed, his face still so close to Kurt's they were breathing each other's air, their bodies not quite touching but arms still around each other.
All the times he had kissed Kurt before, it had been amazing, but never like this. Their kisses had tasted of summer and lake water and we-only-have-this-summer-so-let's-make-t
This time, it was different. This time, they were back in their own lives, back where they were vulnerable when they opened themselves up to each other, and they had done it anyway. They were here.
That had to mean something, right?
He leaned in again, pressing another small, innocent kiss to the corner of Kurt's mouth, feeling him smile against his lips.
"Hey," Kurt breathed.
"Hey," Blaine breathed back, touching his nose to Kurt's. "Ready to go in now?"
"Ready when you are." Kurt's fingers brushed through the soft hair at the back of Blaine's neck before he drew back, hand sliding down Blaine's arm until he found his hand and tangled their fingers together.
"I've been ready for weeks," Blaine replied, his palm tingling where it was touching Kurt's.
"You say the cheesiest things sometimes." Kurt squeezed his hand, grinning but looking quite pleased, actually.
Blaine counted it as a win.
Part II

Home > Campaigns > Big Cats > Campaign Action > Lion Conservation > Trophy Hunting
The killing of Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe in July 2015 by a dentist from Minnesota generated a great deal of public outrage and concern about the ethics and sustainability of trophy hunting.
Born Free is wholly opposed to the killing of animals for sport or pleasure, whether they are wild-born or bred in captivity. We have been working to bring the brutality of this so-called 'sport' to the attention of policymakers, enforcement bodies, and the public, for many years.
As famed actor Roger Moore stated:
"Hunting is a coward's pastime, and no one has demonstrated that more clearly than the American dentist Walter Palmer, who apparently paid over £30,000 to gun down a lion to add his head to a trophy wall. That wall includes the heads of animals he has shot at close range – with the help of paid facilitators, of course, from all over the world – including a leopard, an elk, a buffalo and even a polar bear, who won't have to wait for global warming to be killed off. We should protect the most vulnerable and helpless in society, not destroy them – much less derive pleasure from doing so."
Our ongoing efforts include attempting to persuade those countries that still allow trophy hunting to restrict or ban the practice. Among African countries, Kenya banned trophy hunting as long ago as 1977, and Botswana added its name to the list in 2014. In Central America, Costa Rica introduced a strict ban in 2012. These and other enlightened countries are showing the way forward.
We also focus on the countries from which most trophy hunters emanate, by calling for tighter restrictions, and ultimately complete bans, on the importation of animal 'trophies'. If hunters can't bring their trophies home, we are convinced that they will be far less likely to engage in expensive trophy hunts.
In the USA, the largest importer of animal trophies, Born Free pushes for at-risk species to be listed on the Endangered Species Act (ESA) which, among other things, restricts trophy imports. Thanks to our efforts and those of our partner organisations, West/Central African and Asiatic lions were listed as 'endangered' and East/Southern African lions as 'threatened' in early 2016, making it far more difficult for American hunters to bring lion trophies back to the US. However, getting species listed on the ESA can be a long and arduous process, so we have also been at the forefront of developing and promoting the Conserving Ecosystems by Ceasing the Importation of Large (CECIL) Animal Trophies Act, which will extend import and export prohibitions to sport-hunted species that have been proposed for listing, but are not yet listed under the ESA. The CECIL Act had its first reading in the US Senate in August 2015.
A large number of trophy hunters also come from EU countries. Some50,000 animal trophy items derived from around 85 protected species were legally imported into the EU from 2005 to 2014. The most common species was the Hippopotamus (6,821 items), followed by African elephant (5,900) and leopard (2.475). Significant numbers of specimens derived from African lions (1,728) and white rhinos (437) were also imported into EU countries. While these numbers do not necessarily equate to individual animals, nevertheless they indicate the huge scale of the problem.
We are working with the European Commission and EU member States to ban trophy imports, or at the very least to persuade the authorities to strictly apply their own rules relating to threatened species. Those rules require importing EU countries to establish that trophy hunts do not damage wildlife populations, and for the most endangered species, that they actually enhance conservation. In the firm belief that trophy hunting has no conservation benefit, and in most cases is harmful to conservation, we believe that by strictly applying its existing rules, the EU will not be able to issue permits to allow hunters to bring their trophies home. In November 2015 France announced it would ban the import of lion trophies, and the Dutch government announced a ban on the importation of trophies from a range of species in April 2016.
We are also calling on transport companies to stop transporting animal trophies. To this end we have written, both directly and jointly with other groups, to a wide range of airlines, international couriers, and shipping companies urging them to adopt or strengthen restrictions on trophy carriage. Kenya Airways and Etihad have shown the way forward, working with Born Free to promote ethical policies.
Lastly, we are working to end to the appalling 'canned hunting' industry in South Africa, which intensively breeds lions and some other wild animals in terrible conditions to be released into enclosed areas and shot by so-called 'hunters'. Currently, in South Africa, far more lions live in captivity — often on game ranches — than remain in the wild; according to the South African government there are at least 6,000 lions in more than 200 captive breeding facilities in the country, compared to just over 3,000 wild and managed wild lions. These captive bred animals are commercially exploited throughout their lives; unwitting volunteers pay to help hand-rear cubs, unsuspecting tourists are encouraged to participate in photographic and 'walking with lions' opportunities, and ultimately the trophy hunters pay for the privilege of killing them in their canned hunting enclosures. Even after they have been killed, the exploitation continues through the sale of bones and other body parts into international trade, which feeds a growing demand that threatens to incentivise wild lion poaching. We are appealing to the South African authorities to ban this cruel practice, and we hosted the launch of 'Blood Lions', a disturbing but compelling film exposing the industry, at both the European Parliament in Brussels and at London's Royal Geographic Society in November 2015.
At Born Free we absolutely reject the argument put forward by hunters that trophy hunting is a sustainable conservation tool, or that it generates significant income for conservation. Instead, we promote compassionate solutions to conservation challenges, which encourage the development of sustainable and non-consumptive opportunities to generate income from wildlife while implicitly respecting and protecting the inherent value of individual wild animals and the natural world.

Pain during period
Each month in periods, I feel too much pain with bleeding. I feel this when I was unmarried, but now I am the mum of three children but the situation is the same. I often have to take some pain killer to avoid this. I am normally physically fit and active woman.

The United States was not a party to their conspiracy, and in fact sought at several points to monitor and restrict it.
He called him "a disturbed boy" and then spoke of the conspiracy that followed.
Several volunteers at rallies this week mentioned the birth certificate issue, among other Obama conspiracy theories.
But he was quick to point out that "conspiracy is not just five guys in a room."
"People in Egypt have conspiracy theories about Jews," Ramses told The Daily Beast in Cairo this week.
He did not say that this letter was a proof of conspiracy, but of a system of policy which was very contrary to a peace system.
Why, you conspiracy in petticoats, you'll be the ruin of me!
A conspiracy was formed among the men, by which a third of the whole command planned to desert at one time.
I would rather pray you to consider what the end of your conspiracy must be.
You wouldn't have time enough to have any conspiracy, to be self-saving, to mingle with the crowd, as it was told about me.
mid-14c., from Anglo-French conspiracie, Old French conspiracie "conspiracy, plot," from Latin conspirationem (nominative conspiratio) "agreement, union, unanimity," noun of action from conspirare (see conspire); earlier in same sense was conspiration (early 14c.), from French conspiration (13c.), from Latin conspirationem. An Old English word for it was facengecwis. As a term in law, from 1863. Conspiracy theory is from 1909.

California Compliant AKs by Arsenal INC
There is none other more frustrated gun owner/enthusiast as the Californian gun owner/enthusiast. Since they have some of the most strict gun laws in America, Californians are used to seeing disclaimers on gun auctions and firearm retailers' websites stating, "We do not ship to California." Ironically enough, the demand for firearms in California are amongst the highest in the nation–California is Gunblog.com's second highest readership (the first is Texas). Californians would have needed to have a complete custom job done to an AK-47 in order to own one, until now.
Arsenal Inc of Las Vegas, NV has heard the cries from their neighbors, and are now going to be making California compliant AK-47s, AK-74s, and Saiga .410 shotguns. The new California compliant Arsenal Aks share the same features of their less restricted Aks such as a Russian stamped receiver, a folding stock, and a scope accessory rail. However, Californians are restricted to a 10 round magazine which also has a lock that must be engaged with a key for magazine removal. Although they have the magazine restriction on them, it's better than nothing for those Californians wanting an AK. The MSRP Arsenal's new Right to "Bear" arms California Compliant SGL23 (Ak-47) is $820, the SGL33 (AK-74) is $950, and the SGL 43 (Saiga 410 Shotgun) is $710.
