This application is related to application Ser. No. 837,631, filed Mar. 13, 1987 and assigned to Texas Instruments Incorporated.
The present invention relates to a memory array on a semiconductor integrated circuit chip with an on-chip circuit for reorganizing the array in response to control signals applied to the circuit. The circuit has general application but is particularly adapted to an EPROM array.
In general, memory circuits are made and sold in fixed arrays without the facility of being able to convert from one memory organization to another except through the use of external hardware. Consequently, if one wishes for example to use both a 64K by 8 and a 128K by 4 array it is necessary to purchase a different chip for each arrangement or use the external hardware referred to above.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of the present application to provide an on chip converter for converting from one organization of array memory cells to another by simply applying control signals to the chip.
According to the invention there is provided a non-volatile memory device formed on a face of a semiconductor substrate which includes an array of electrically programmable read only memory cells, a column decoder coupled to said array and first and second sets of input/output lines coupled to said column decoder. Switch means isolates either the first or second set of input/output lines from the column decoder. A programmable non-volatile memory element is coupled to programming ones of the input lines and is programmable into a programmed state from an unprogrammed state in response to a programming voltage applied to programming ones of the first set of input lines. A control circuit is coupled to the switch means and to the memory element for isolating the first or second set in response to an external signal applied to a selecting one of the first set of input/output lines and in response to the state of the non-volatile memory element.
The novel features believed characteristic of the invention are set forth in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, as well as other features and advantages thereof, will be best understood by reference to the detailed description which follows, read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a preferred embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram showing the circuitry for reorganizing the array of memory cells.
Referring to FIG. 1 there is shown an array of electrically programmable read only memory cells (EPROMs) 11 with associated column lines 12 connected to a column decoder 10 and corresponding bit lines coupled through transistors 23 to ground. Coupled to the transistors 23 are virtual ground selection lines 15. A Y address decoder 17 is connected to the column decoder 10 for controlling the operation of the latter. The output of the column decoder 10 goes to a sense amplifier system 13 which could be either a single sense amplifier with selection transistors in each column line 12 or separate sense amplifiers for each column line 12. An input/output interface 19 coupled to the sense amplifier system 13 outputs or receives input from 8 input/output data lines 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, and 58. A switch system 21 in series with the aforesaid input/output lines controls the flow of input and output data into and out of the input/output lines. A control circuit 25 controls the switch system 21 in response to input on input/output terminal 5 and in response to output from a memory element 64 which is non-volatile. Memory element 64 receives programming input from terminals 1 and 3.
A more detailed representation of the control circuit, memory element and switch system seen in FIG. 2 consists of four isolating transistors in series with a first set of input/output lines 44, 48, 54 and 58 and four inter line transistors 20 connecting lines 44 and 46, 48 and 50, 52 and 54, and 56 and 58, respectively. Between the column decoder 10 and transistors 20 in series with lines 44, 48, 52, and 56 are transistors 16 and in series with lines 46, 50, 54 and 58 are transistors 18. Individual sense amplifiers 13 couple between transistors 16 and 18 and the column decoder 10 and are shown bypassed by dotted lines for certain functions such as programming. An electrically programmable read only memory element 64 has its source connected to circuit ground and its drain to line 71. The control gate of the EPROM is biased through resistor 66 to VDD. The control gate also is coupled to one end of the source to drain path of N-channel transistor 68 and the other end of which connects to function 73. Line 71 also connects to one end of the source to drain path of N-channel transistor 70 and the other end of which connects to junction 73 also. The gates of both transistors 68 and 70 couple to input/output line 44. Junction 73 is connected through the source to drain of an isolating transistor 72 to input/output line 48.
Isolating transistor 72 is gated by a sensing circuit consisting of an inverting high voltage sense circuit 76 connected by line 80 to input/output line 56. The output of the circuit 76 drives inverter 78 and also travels along line 96 to drive the gate of transistor 92, inverter 86 and the gate of transistor 84. The output of inverter 78 drives the gate of transistor 82. Transistor 84 has its drain coupled to the drain of transistor 82 which goes to the power supply line of inverter 88 and its source connected to VDD. Depletion mode transistor 90 biases the input of inverter 88 high when transistor 92 is conducting. Inverter 86 drives the gate of transistor 94 which pulls down the input of inverter 88 when transistor 92 is off due to the voltage level on line 96 being low. When the voltage on line 80 is below the threshold value for making the high voltage sense circuit 76 switch, the output of high voltage sense circuit 76 will be high and transistor 92 will be turned on applying VDD to the input of inverter 88. The output of inverter 88 is low which turns off isolating transistor 72. Transistor 84 is driven on putting VDD on the power supply line of inverter 88.
When a high voltage is applied to line 80, sense circuit 76 produces a low output which turns off transistor 92 and turns on transistor 94 placing the input to inverter 88 at ground. The output of inverter 78 is high driving on transistor 82 and placing the high voltage on the power supply line of inverter 88.
The control circuit 25 further includes an inverting sense amplifier 77 made up of a depletion mode transistor biasing line 71 to VDD followed by an inverter. The output of the inverter is coupled by line 79 to transistors 22, through inverter 100 to transistors 20 and to one input of each of NOR gates 104 and 106. The outputs of NOR gates 104 and 106 pass respectively through inverters 108 and 110, on lines 114 and 112 to transistors 18 and 16, respectively. The second input to each of NOR gates 104 and 106 come from line 120 connected to input/output terminal 32. The second input to NOR gate 104 passes first through inverter 102.
This means for applying a 16 volt programming voltage to terminal 24, 28 and 36 is an off chip EPROM programmer 130 while that for applying a 5 volt signal to terminal 32 is an Array Block Selector 132.
Operationally, when EPROM cell 64 is unprogrammed it will be conducting and pull line 71 to ground thereby causing the output of inverter 77 on line 79 to go high and turn on transistors 22. At the same time the signal on line 116 after inverter 100 inverts the signal on line 79 turns off transistors 20. The input on line 124 to NOR gates 104 and 106 will be high resulting in transistors 16 and 18 both being turned on. This corresponds to a full by 8 operation of the array. Any application of voltage by Selector 132 to line 32 has no effect on NOR gates 104 and 106 as both of the latter are disabled by the logic "1" on line 124.
If a by 4 operation of the array is desired then it is necessary to program the EPROM cell 64 so that it is non-conducting with VDD applied to its control gate. In this case EPROM programmer 130 applies 16 volts to terminals 24, 28 and 36. The high voltage on the gates of transistors 68 and 70 turn those transistors on while the high voltage on line 80 as described above turns on transistor 72 applying 16 volts to the control gate of the EPROM 64 and to line 71. The floating gate of the EPROM thus becomes negatively charged by the electron injection from the channel region. Once the high voltage is removed and with Array Block Selector 132 applying 0 volts to terminal 32, the input to NOR gate 104 will be high and that to 106 will be low. Thus, transistors 18 will be on while transistor 16 will be off. The low output on line 79 also turns off transistors 22 and turns on transistors 20. With Selector 132 applying 5 volts to terminal 32, transistors 16 will be on and transistors 18 will be off. Thus, one can move back and forth from one block of by 4 to the other by simply applying and removing 5 volts from terminal 32.
Clearly, other selections of arrangements other than by 8 to by 4 can be obtained.
While this invention has been described with reference to an illustrative embodiment, this description is not intended to be construed in a limiting sense. Various modifications of the illustrative embodiment, as well as other embodiments of the invention, will be apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reference to this description. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claims will cover any such modifications or embodiments as fall within the true scope of the invention.

Fatal Plot
Struggling D.C.-based freelance writer Laurel Hunter drives to North Carolina to research an upbeat magazine article on a new storytelling festival. She's looking forward to a pleasant assignment and a few relaxed days researching family history.
Laurel's light story darkens quickly. Two festival stars' long feud explodes after they tell the same "family" story. She goes to interview one of them and finds her body.
Laurel's assignment is cancelled, but she uses it as cover for researching a true-crime story. The chief witnesses, and suspects, include the storytellers: the dead woman's young and ambitious rival, a specialist in down-home stories; a black woman renowned for combining classic tales and urban settings; a Hispanic lawyer beginning her career in storytelling; a history teacher going pro as a Cherokee storyteller.
Separating fact from fiction seems Laurel's biggest challenge, until a storyteller tries to silence the writer.
Turning "Leftovers" into a Series
I wrote "Leftovers" to explore the possibility of writing a new mystery series featuring an empty-nest woman who loses her dull job and her narcissistic husband at the same time. Forced to adjust, she accepts the unlikely job of invigorating a thrift store established to raise funds to help abused women.
"Leftovers" would not be a chapter in the book. It provides backstory for the protagonist, a view of a setting, and a glimpse of some ongoing characters.
Currently the series consists of nothing more than a vague plan for the first book, a collection of newspaper clippings, notes in a folder on my computer, and occasional thoughts of plots and characters.

Full title reads: "To All Free Frenchmen".
MS. General Charles De Gaulle standing behind his desk speaking in French about the French defeat. He states that the defeat and the low morale of the French and the French government was caused by a superior mechanical force which the Germans were able to use against France, this lead to capitulation which was chosen by the Petain government. De Gaulle and his companions believe that the honour of France rests with him and his friends who will continue the war alongside the Allies who will be victorious.
De Gaulle's speech is played over footage of Germany's invading army and of refugees fleeing their homes. There are also shots of Allied tanks.
N.B. It seems odd that this item went out with a French Speech - Subtitles were not unknown and it seems strange that they weren't used. - MD.

text: Syma inspired this post--thank you, my dear. Big hugs to all of you who take time to post news and pics about new BV styles and colors from the US and all over the world. I learn more here than anywhere else about the coming fashions for Bottega Veneta and I appreciate it so much! Not living in a metro area, it's hard to get as much info as I'd like. Thanks to PF'rs in Cali, NYC, London, the rest of Europe, Hong Kong, Singapore, etc. I can enjoy styles and colors I'd never otherwise see. I get to shop in Chicago 3-4 times a year, but for the other 350 days of the year, you all are a godsend.

Bio updated: November 17th, 2007
Um, if you're reading this, know that I'm not proud of any of the fanfiction posted here. Mostly, I'm keeping it up for my personal lulz ("OMG! What was I thinking when I wrote THAT?!" sorts of things), and while you can feel free to read it, I'd just like to say that anything I post on this account or this journal is likely to be several times better.
I like video games, card games (anything from Hearts to Duel Monsters), musicals, drawing, and (of course) writing. I'm pretty happy to talk with anyone, as well.

Some things are worth waiting for…
Traveling thousands of miles from home to enter college is the only way nineteen-year-old Avery Morgansten can escape what happened at the Halloween party five years ago—an event that forever changed her life. All she needs to do is make it to her classes on time, make sure the bracelet on her left wrist stays in place, not draw any attention to herself, and maybe—please God—make a few friends, because surely that would be a nice change of pace. The one thing she didn't need and never planned on was capturing the attention of the one guy who could shatter the precarious future she's building for herself.
Some things are worth experiencing…
Cameron Hamilton is six feet and three inches of swoon-worthy hotness, complete with a pair of striking blue eyes and a remarkable ability to make her want things she believed were irrevocably stolen from her. She knows she needs to stay away from him, but Cam is freaking everywhere, with his charm, his witty banter, and that damn dimple that's just so… so lickable. Getting involved with him is dangerous, but when ignoring the simmering tension that sparks whenever they are around each other becomes impossible, he brings out a side of her she never knew existed.
Some things should never be kept quiet…
But when Avery starts receiving threatening emails and phone calls forcing her to face a past she wants silenced, she's has no other choice but to acknowledge that someone is refusing to allow her to let go of that night when everything changed. When the devastating truth comes out, will she resurface this time with one less scar? And can Cam be there to help her or will he be dragged down with her?
And some things are worth fighting for…
WAIT FOR YOU is available now!

STRENGTH (Mark of Nexus, #1)
Release Date: March 7, 2013
Genre: New Adult Paranormal Romance
Publisher: Sapphire Star Publishing
When college student Rena Collins finds herself nose-to-chest with the campus outcast, her rumor-laced notions are shattered. Handsome, considerate, and seemingly sane, Wallace Blake doesn't look like he spends his nights alone, screaming and banging on the walls of his dorm room. Hell, he doesn't look like he spends his nights alone, period.
Too curious for her own good, Rena vows to uncover the truth behind Wallace's madman reputation—and how two seconds of contact had left her with bruises. Of course, there are a few minor setbacks along the way: guilt, admiration, feelings of the warm and fuzzy variety…
Not to mention the unwanted attention of Wallace's powerful, supernaturally-gifted family.
They're a bloodline divided by opposing ideals, two soon-to-be warring factions that live in secret among us. When Rena ends up caught in their crossfire, Wallace has no choice but to save her by using his powers. Now they're really in trouble. With war on the horizon and Rena's life in the balance, he needs to put some distance between them. But Rena won't let go. If fighting is what it takes to prove her own strength and keep Wallace in her life, then that's what she'll do—even if it means risking a whole lot more than her heart.

Release Date: November 12, 2012
Genre: New Adult Science Fiction Romance
College junior Ariel Richmond is working on year three of Project Normalcy.
Her house reeks of keggers past and her bestie is just a slight bit vulgar. But the thing is—they both aid in making life refreshingly uneventful.
So much for hard-earned mediocrity when Luca Grinaldi appears on the scene.
Luca's sudden presence on campus is hard to ignore. Those bright eyes act like a beacon to unsuspecting females, and with features like his, he's got to be moonlighting for GQ. Luca hopelessly captivates Ariel with his confidence and charisma, but the mysteries surrounding him make him nearly untouchable. And just when Ariel grows close enough to unlock his secrets, a tragic event sends her life in a downward spiral.
That steady life is no longer an option and allies quickly become scarce. The mysterious Luca seems to be the only one willing to help her—but with that trust comes the burden of his secrets. He has a dark mission of otherworldly proportions, and is willing to sacrifice as many lives as it takes to see it completed.
Gone are the days of simply maintaining normalcy, and if Ariel isn't cautious with her trust, so soon may be her future.

The Truths about Dating and Mating
Release Date: November 21st
Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance
Spunky Italian coed Ivy Rossini likes to talk and push the boundaries. She gets to do both as she co-hosts Riordan College's radio program, The Truths about Dating and Mating, alongside her lifelong best friend, Ian Hollister.
Being the only girl who cares to see beyond Ian's bad boy reputation has its advantages, especially when he's scaring off the jerks who just want to nail the campus sex-guru. It's when he's "protecting" her from the advances she welcomes that she wants to lob him over the head and tell him to butt out. But Ivy feels like she's the one who's taken a hit when Ian almost kisses her at a party. She knows she should feel relieved when he pulls away, so why is she disappointed instead?
What's worse, Ivy's now getting aroused by Ian's slightest touch and can't stop entertaining thoughts of a romantic future. But Ian doesn't do relationships, and she's not interested in anything casual. In the end, Ivy decides it's best to keep her growing feelings a secret and hope they'll pass. However, when Ian begins hinting at wanting to take things to the next level, she's forced to decide if a chance at something more is worth risking everything they've built.
With their friendship and her heart hanging in the balance, can Ivy follow the advice she and Ian give their listeners – to communicate, be honest, and trust in themselves – or will insecurity, stubbornness, and pride ruin any chance of their relationship getting off the ground?

Mesut Ozil's assist stats for 2015/16 are RIDICULOUS.
Arsenal's German playmaker has already set up 17 Premier League goals this term, meaning he is on course to break Thierry Henry's record for most assists in a Premier League season (20).
However, an assist requires the player on the end of your pass doing his bit. What happens if we look purely at the chances Ozil has created (i.e. if we include the opportunities he created but his team mates missed)?
That's when you realise just how incredibly creative Arsenal's Assist King has been. Following the 2-1 win against Leicester, Ozil has become only the 13th player to create more than 100 chances in a Premier League season.
With a massive 12 games of 2015/16 left, he has already created 106 chances for his pals . To give you some idea of how insane that number is, Arsenal's No10 has just gone past the best season records of both Steven Gerrard and Ryan Giggs - and he still has nearly a third of the campaign to go:
Most chances created in a Premier League season
Ryan Giggs (2006/07)
Steven Gerrard (2007/08)
Mesut Ozil (2015/16*)
Not a fact Liverpool or Man United fans will enjoy… but it gets even better for Arsenal fans.
At his current rate of 4.4 chances created per game, Ozil will create 159 chances this season (assuming he doesn't miss another game).
And as you can see from looking at the current record, that will make Ozil's 2015/16 the most creative individual season in Premier League history… by a mile:
Most chances created in a Premier League season
Quite an achievement and a remarkable set of stats.
However, the most shocking thing about all this is the player currently in second place of the all-time list.
Florent Malouda? Eh?

– A Caryl Fic
This takes place after the last mid season finale where Daryl is captured. It started as a one-shot but I'll probably continue with chapters if I get enough response. Enjoy and let your imagination paint for you!
The rain pounded the ground hard all around him, his feet slipping in the mud every so often under his weight. With another sudden crash of thunder from above Daryl drove the knife home hard and grunted with the effort. The walker beneath him gasped and its limbs flailed about helplessly as the blade cracked its skull and pieced its brain. Hands trembling Daryl held the knife still for a few seconds longer before rolling to the side and tugging the knife free, on his back he closed his eyes and let the rain wash over him. He lost track of time as the clouds rolled thick and angry over the sky above, for what felt like hours he lay there soaked to his skin, his clothes sodden and heavy and his mind numb. He listened to the thunder cracking and felt the ground shudder with the force, puddles around him trembled and turned a hazy colour of rose as blood seeped into their waters.
Still gripping the knife, Daryl opened his eyes and warily looked at the walker he had taken down. They all looked the same in the end, skin peeling, eyes sunken and teeth bared ready to tear into you without a seconds hesitation. Its eyes had long since glassed over and they stared at him now blankly and devoid of life.
A few seconds later and that could have been me, he thought to himself.
Carelessly he had pushed through the undergrowth and tripped around the tree only to stumble into the walker that lay before him, it was mere instinct that his hand found his knife before the walker had had a chance to react. This one had been slow and he had been lucky, adrenaline had kicked in and pushed the aching in his muscles aside long enough for him to trip and force the knife forward quickly.
The rain and thunder continued on and Daryl felt himself grow wary where he lay, he had to get moving again, stay ahead of the pain and tiredness. He had no choice but to keep going. Dragging a hand over his face he wiped the water from his eyes and pulled himself up.
Get your ass in gear and stop being a pussy! He screamed at himself
Fumbling with the knife Daryl quickly placed it back its in sheath by his hip and looked around. It was still too dark to see clearly among the tree's and he could hear little but the thunder and patter of rain all around him in the woods. Squinting he looked about slowly for several long seconds before finally catching a glimpse of his bow lying several feet away, its arrows fallen askew and lying in a puddle close by. With much effort and a few grunts he scrambled to his feet and swayed dangerously towards his weapon while the blood rushed back through his numb body. A few minutes later and he was forcing himself to move forward trying desperately to see in the darkness.
After several minutes of what looked like endless darkness Daryl began to wonder if it was better to shore up somewhere and hope for the weather to die down. Last thing he needed was to stumble into another walker or down a hole somewhere, breaking his legs. He couldn't afford that, they were counting on him, he couldn't risk losing another hour.
Several hours ago he had escaped the clutches of Woodbury and its psychotic leader, barely making it out alive. As he thought of this, his feet quickened their pace instinctively, forcing him on faster in what he hoped was the direction of the prison. It was all a blur as he thought on it, he was standing with Merle awaiting his fate to the walkers in the ring, the last thing he remembered of his brother was the surprise, then relief and finally anger in his face as he had looked at him. He remembered pleading with Merle with his eyes, begging him to help him, to save him as only he could. But Merle had stood there looking betrayed and uncertain at the whole scene, then the shouts and screams had started...
A snapping of branches to his left brought his head up quickly, snapping him from his thoughts. Crossbow still in check Daryl could see nothing in the darkness and strained to hear the moaning of the undead over the noise of the rain. Suddenly the woods all around him lit up with a blinding white light and he cussed swinging his crossbow up front quickly, finger tensing on the trigger. The lightening had finally cracked overhead and lit the whole forest up. Before the light faded into darkness Daryl caught a brief glimpse of the forest before him and in the distance through the branches, a small break in the clouds where the sky was slowly turning grey.
It's nearly morning?! Gritting his teeth Daryl swore to himself, nearly tripping over the branch in front of him out of frustration, he had lost more time than he thought. But I've got to be close, so fucking close!
He knew of the plans for Woodbury, he knew what the intentions of its people were, he could see it in their faces, in their eyes. Branded a terrorist, he was to be executed and made an example of for disturbing what he was told was their peaceful community. Luckily for him though it wasn't his time to go just yet, the timing of walkers had never before been more welcomed than at the time of his execution. Everyone had panicked, their walls had been breached and chaos was everywhere as walkers finally invaded Woodbury, Daryl has seized his opportunity and made a break for freedom as walkers and civilians poured into the arena in a crowd of fear and confusion. He had slammed into the guard closest to him, knocking him to the ground and driving a swift kick into his ribs then his face as he cried out. After securing his knife and cutting his bonds he went in search of Merle but instead found the trampled body of the guard who had held his crossbow. He had dived for his weapon without giving it a second thought but instead found his captor waiting, gun in hand pointed at his head. There was nothing he could have done, mid dive Daryl had seen it all too late, the barrel of the gun staring down at him, the baring of teeth as the man holding it looked at him with his one good eye and cackled with joy. He had closed his eyes and waited for the shot but it never came. As he hit the ground he quickly grabbed his crossbow and held it up to shield himself. Turning, Daryl caught sight of Merle through the crowd, wrestling with his captor, although Merle's hands were still bound he drove his boot into the other man's groin and Daryl heard the roar of pain as the man stumbled and fell backwards disappearing from sight amongst the civilians trying to escape.
Scrambling quickly to his feet he had shouted for his brother, trying to be heard over the noise and screaming all around them. Merle had then turned, searching the crowd for Daryl and finally spotted him, but at the point it was too late. The walkers that had invaded Woodbury now spilled into the arena, driven into a frenzy by the screaming and running of civilians everywhere. Daryl had watched stricken as Merle turned all but too late, he went down under a mass of snapping teeth and limbs as walkers descended on him...
Daryl stumbled into a nearby tree and swore as his knee tore open on its trunk. Hissing through the pain he kicked the thick wood over and over till he felt the blood running down his leg into his shoe. Without realising it, tears had been streaming down his face making it impossible to see anything, he collapsed against its trunk and tore at his chest, beating on himself in frustration and anger as his mind replayed the scene over and over.
Why you son of a bitch...why! he screamed inside, hands clawing the skin on his chest trying to tear at the feelings eating away inside of him. The pain, it hurt so fucking much...WHY?
Not for the second time Daryl had lost his brother and that loss was just now finding him. He had been furious and he had screamed and cried when he had made it to Atlanta, only to find his brother's hand on that roof. He had grieved and carried the guilt that he had not been there for months afterwards. Everyday he had beaten himself up and blamed himself for not having done something more, and now this?!
Leaning against the tree Daryl fought to catch his breath through the sobs and the pain that tore through his chest. The rain continued on, beating down on his back and the thunder echoed through the woods around him.
Useless, I'm so fucking useless, useless piece of shit..as the sadness began to fade, Daryl felt that all too familiar anger building up inside himself. He hated himself, he loathed himself, he should be the one dead under those walkers, his capturer should have been the one under them his mind screamed at him. He should have stayed and slit that sonofabitches throat!
"HOW AM I BETTER THAN ANY OF YOU!" he roared as he swung from the tree and broke into a stumble, then a shaky run.
Without realising it Daryl reached for his knife and tore it free from its sheath, he started swinging blindly at anything and everything as he half tripped and half ran on through the darkness. Eventually the anger within him subsided and his sorrow deepened, his feet slowed and the pain returned. He let the crossbow dangle weakly in one hand and the knife in the other as he came to a stop. Daryl squeezed his eyes shut tightly, trying to stem the tears or was it just rain water? At this point he no longer cared.
Why do I keep running? Was the only thought that drifted across his mind...
Thunder clapped overheard and he felt it deep within his chest.
Why should I? Came another thought as he opened his eyes.
Lightening lanced across the clouds overhead and once again the forest was bathed in a brilliant white light. Daryl blinked at the sudden blindness and as the light died down quickly he was left with small, white circles dancing in his vision. He shoved his knife into its leather hold and dragged a hand over his hands, trying to rub away the spots of light. As he opened his eyes again his vision continued to be blurred and he squinted in the gloom, up ahead he could now just make out the greying horizon through the tree's as morning was finally approaching. But there was something else, the white spots still remained and Daryl blinked several times in confusion. Stumbling forward without thinking, Daryl concentrated on the spots till his feet carried him forward towards a thick bush that sat curled between several tree's.
Your every bit as good as them...
The voice suddenly echoed in his ears and he spun around with his crossbow raised in alarm. Yet there was no one behind him, only the rain and the woods from where he had come. He blinked in confusion and tried to assemble his thoughts, did he say that? No, he had heard that before somewhere, from someone. Then it hit him.
"Carol?" he whispered.
When he couldn't sense or hear anything Daryl quickly spun around and squinted at the bush before him. Leaning down he raised his hand forward and touched the white spots which he thought had been the light. His hands found the softness of petals and the wetness of the rain.
Cherokee roses...
He was speechless. He couldn't believe it. Of anyone or anything that he could have stumbled across this was what he found. For several minutes Daryl simply stood, hand holding the flower, crossbow forgotten on the ground. He couldn't even remember dropping it. But he remembered this flower. Suddenly his mind filled with memories, memories of hunting and days of camping outside with Merle. Of the night they had found the Cherokee Roses for the first time and Merle had told him of their story. Of the day he searched for Sophia and found the Cherokee Roses. Of that very same day when he gave one to Carol in the hopes of finding her little girl. Of the afternoon when he had visited her grave having found one and brought it back in her memory. But then he had found her, left for dead almost but he had fucking found her...
"Carol..." he spoke her name again.
His mind filled anew with memories of the long winter the group had spent on the run, of moving from house to house, scavenging for food, learning to survive and learning to live in a shattered world. Daryl also remembered that afternoon where Carol had approached him and straight out asked him to teach her to live. He had known then that the world had changed and wouldn't change back. He had known then that she had really wanted to survive just like him and he had shown her how, just like Merle had shown him.
Don't pretend you don't care...
Her voice drifted across his mind again, clear as day, almost as if she were standing next to him and repeating herself with that same angry look he loathed to see on her. But he had been pretending, just like he pretended he didn't care about what had happened to his brother, he had pretended he didn't care about everyone, Sophia, Hershel, Lori, Carl, Rick and everyone else. And Carol. She had called him out on it and he knew he was struggling to hide it any-more. To hide his feelings.
Daryl continued staring at the rose he held in his hand and watched as his vision began to clear slowly. Morning was coming on fast now and although the storm still raged, it was becoming lighter in the woods. Daryl could finally hear the noise of the crows stirring in their nests and the chattering of a nearby squirrel as it darted through the branches above, scared by the thunder that rolled through the forest. The thoughts continued to come to him of everything that she had ever told him, that he was apart of their group, that he was needed, the he was cared about. Daryl actually let out a snort at that last part. Still finding it difficult to swallow, that someone other than Merle cared for him. But he knew that despite his reluctance of accepting them, they had accepted him as part of the group, of their family. They relied, needed him, at times that annoyed him but often when he thought back to that moment where he had found Carol in that cell on the brink of death, that look of hope she had in her eyes. It had mirrored his own feelings or disbelief and joy at having finally done something right.
But what was he doing now, giving it up all over again grieving for his brother. And finding that these fucking roses were following him everywhere he went. Daryl let out a quick laugh, almost sounding like a bark but without any hint of amusement. Here he was drowning in self-pity while everyone else struggled to live on, and that's what it all came down to. Wanting to live in this shitty broken up world. But he knew from what he had seen in Woodbury, everyone was far from safe. Daryl knew that that one in particular, would be seeking his vengeance in whatever nasty way he could. He had seen that malice, that murderous look on his face and he just knew.
"Bringing some vengeance back to camp," Daryl muttered to himself, another ghost of a memory coming to him of when he had felt that way.
And he knew then, if he didn't reach them before that one did it would be too late. Gone was all of his family, his Mother, his Father whom he never knew, yet missed and now his only brother, Merle. But he stood the risk of losing everything he could care about, that included his new family. Water trickled from the flower and down his palm bringing him out of his thoughts. The morning was almost fully here now and he stroked the petals of the flower gently. A reminder of the losses in his life, but of the hope that he could still have a life. Maybe a good one someday. A rightone.
What do you want?
A man of honor...
Daryl slid the knife from his sheath once again and bent forward, slowly and as gently as he could he cut the stem at its base and removed the flower from its bush. He opened his vest and carefully placed the flower inside, trying not to ruin its petals and flatten them. Replacing the blade, he picked up his crossbow and grimaced at the effort of doing so. He was a wreck, bleeding and banged up like a horse that needed put down. But he couldn't afford to think of his pains any-more, he couldn't continue to mourn or grieve for those now gone. He needed to get back, he needed to warn them all, he needed to save them all somehow.
Beyond the flowers he heard the snapping of branches and the slow shuffling sound of the walking dead. The moans almost drowned out by the continued thunder but he heard them. Wiping the rain from his face he gave the bush one last look before limping around it to face the walker now shambling into his sights. It was an ugly sonofabitch, hair mostly gone and bare feet broken and bleeding as it dragged itself through the dirt and leaves of the forest floor. It turned in his direction as it heard him move, mouth falling open to reveal a blackened swollen tongue and further blackened teeth. Daryl watched it for a few seconds before squeezing the trigger of his crossbow.
"I'll be that man of honor," he told the walker.
Thanks for taking the time to read this guys.

1. Floundering
This problem occurs in the teams which are having trouble starting or ending a project or different stages of the project. Solution to this state are to look critically at the improvement plan, review the mission statement, determine the cause of the holdup, and have each member write down reasons and discuss them at the next meeting.
2. Overbearing participants
These participants have an unusual amount of influence in the team. They usually have a passion of authority or a particular expertise. Teams need these abilities; however, it becomes detrimental when they discourage discussion on their expertise and discount other member's ideas. Solutions are to reinforce the ground rules, talk to the person off-line and ask for cooperation, and enforce the importance of data and the problem-solving method.
3. Dominating participant
They like to themselves talk, use overlong anecdotes, and dominate the meeting. Members get discouraged and find excuser for missing meetings. Solutions are to structure discussion on key issues for equal participation. Talk to the offending person off-line, and have the team agree in the needs for limits and a balanced participation. In addition the leader may act as a gatekeeper by asking questions.
4. Reluctant participants
They feel shy or unsure of themselves and must be encouraged to contribute. Problems developed when there are no built-in activities that encourage introverts to participate and extraverts to listen. In addition to structured activities, solution includes dividing the task into individual assignment and acting as a gatekeeper by asking questions such as, " what is your experience in this area?"
5. Unquestioned acceptance of opinions as facts occurs
When members assert personal beliefs with such confidence that other members think they are facts. Solutions are to request data and to follow the problem-solving method.
6. Rush to accomplish
It is common to teams being pushed by one or more members who are impatient for results. Teams must realize that improvements do not come easily and rarely overnight. Solutions are to remind members that the ground rules call for the problem-solving method or to confront the rusher off-line and explain the effects of impatience.
7. Attribution
This is the activity of guessing at a person's motives when team members disagree or don't understand his or her opinion or behavior. Solutions are to reaffirm the importance of the problem-solving method, question whether this opinion is based on data, and find out the real meaning of the problem.
8. Discounts and "plops"
These things arise when members fail to give credit to another's opinions or no one responds to a statement that "plops". Every member deserves the respect and attention from the team. Solutions are to reinforce active listening as a team behaviour, support the discounted member, or talk off-line with members who frequently discount, put down or ignore.
9. Wanderlust
Digression and tangents happened when members' loss track of the meeting's purpose or want to avoid a sensitive topic. Discussions then wonder off in many directions at once. Solutions are to use a written agenda with time estimates, write meeting topics on flip charts or redirect the conversation back to the agenda.
10. Feuding team members
This can disrupt an entire team with their disagreement. Usually these feuds predate the team and are best dealt with outside the team meetings. Solution are to get the adversaries to discuss the issues off-line, offer to facilitate the discussion, and encourage them to forms some contract about their behaviors.

Help honour these brave airmen
PUBLISHED: 16:43 06 June 2014 | UPDATED: 16:43 06 June 2014
Archant Norfolk.
This is a museum which just gets bigger and better as the years go by. One run by dedicated volunteers, which opens the doors on a slice of Norfolk history when parts of the county were turned into Little America.
How appropriate that at a time when our veterans return to Normandy to remember the 70th anniversary of D-Day, the 389th Bomb Group Memorial at Hethel holds its annual gala day this weekend.
On Sunday there is a chance to admire the ever-increasing display of new items on show – and these now include a collection of objects from the First World War, many of which were recovered from the battlefields of Northern France.
They range from German schnapps bottles and an 18-pounder brass shell to an officer's whistle and barbed wire cutters. Some, like a German helmet and a semi-automatic rifle, can be handled by visitors.
But it is the story of the Americans in Norfolk during the Second World War which what Hethel is all about and it remembers a time when thousands of young airmen arrived to help us win the war – so many of them were never to return home.
They lost their lives in the fight for freedom.
The original museum buildings with the former base chapel hold a wealth of material relating to the 389th Bomb Group of the United States Eighth Air Force and in April this year a new Nissen hut was opened by General the Lord Richard Dannatt, former head of the British Army.
The new hut contains previously unseen displays, among them an impressive range of both US and RAF uniforms, as well as fascinating memorabilia, not only from the 389th, but also the 466th Bomb group, which was based at Attlebridge during the Second World War.
The hut is dedicated to 2nd Lt. Lloyd H "Pete" Hughes who lost his life on a mission to bomb oilfields in Romania in 1943. He was aged 22. His display includes his Purple Heart and Medal of Honor.
So, why not go along on Sunday between 10am and 4pm, and take a look for yourself? We should cherish museums such as the one at Hethel which we have... thanks to the volunteers who spend so much time and effort making sure this important part of our history is never forgotten.
There will also be various stalls, a display of military and classic cars along with refreshments and a barbecue.

Self Portrait – DEAR ME!!! No, I don't have red hair but it was supposed to be more abstract so why not!!!
This was a commission piece for an elk hunter. It was 20×24″ on canvas.
This was a reproduction of a Matisse painting as part of a class given by Nathalie Kalbach.
This was also a reproduction. It is from a 1950's Vogue magazine cover.

NASSAU, Bahamas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kingsland Holdings Limited ("Kingsland"), the largest minority shareholder of Avianca Holdings S.A. ("Avianca"), today issued the following statement in response to recent news of the forcible removal of a passenger by United Airlines on overbooked flight 3411:
"Germán Efromovich seeks to treat Avianca's minority shareholders like a passenger on an overbooked United flight – offering a choice between inadequate consideration and forcible removal from his seat."
On February 28, 2017, Kingsland filed a lawsuit in New York State Court challenging the conduct of Avianca's controlling shareholder Synergy Aerospace Corporation ("Synergy") and Germán Efromovich with respect to Avianca. Court filings by Synergy on March 27, 2017 concede that it is actively negotiating with United to obtain funds for itself as part of a United-Avianca transaction, just as Kingsland has alleged in its lawsuit.
As a significant shareholder, Kingsland Holdings is deeply committed to the long-term success of Avianca and is pursuing this action to protect the viability of the company and safeguard the interests of all minority shareholders.

Now you've done it and it's official, you have a hangover. Now what? No matter what you do sleep and water or juice should be included. There are many folk cures that are supposed to help cure a hangover. Many of them will help you cope by replenishing the vitamins and liquid you lost over night, while some like avoiding caffeine are very important to a quicker recovery. There is no one size fits all cure, find what works for you but the list below is a good place to start. There are also a few suggestions from readers who found their own way to cope.
Time Required: As long as it takes to feel better.
Here's How:
- Sleep. Rest is your best friend at this point to give your body a recover. It is best to stay in bed so call in to work if you have to, tell them you have the stomach flu. You will sound so horrible on the phone they may believe you (unless they saw you at the bar, not a good idea then).
- Replenish your body with fruit juice and water.
- Avoid caffeine. A weak cup of coffee may be okay but a lot of caffeine will continue to dehydrate you, the opposite of what you want right now.
- Drink orange juice for Vitamin C.
- Drink a sports drink like Gatorade or Powerade.
- Eat mineral rich food like pickles or canned fish.
- In Poland, drinking pickle juice is a common remedy.
- Drink a Bloody Mary. While the popular phrase "hair of the dog that bit you" may sound logical with a shot of whiskey left in the bottle next to your bed, it's only temporary. Try a Bloody Mary instead, while your blood is dealing with the new alcohol it is ignoring the old and in the mean time tomato juice and celery are full of vitamins. If you drank the last of the vodka make a Virgin Mary. Another spicy morning after drink option is Hair of the Dog, in which gin and hot sauce are sure to bite your hangover back.

This one probably classifies more as an in-the-know drink than a "secret" one. Order any Frappuccino "affogato-style" and you'll get a shot of hot espresso added on top of your drink as opposed to having it blended in.

A MAN who's the prime suspect in the murder of the mother of his infant child has failed to win access to the boy.
A Children's Court heard the man, who can't be named for legal reasons, murdered the child's mother in her home while the child was present.
The court heard the boy had been frightened of his father during a 30-minute supervised visit. A child psychologist told the court the boy initially tried to hide from his father and maintained the greatest distance from him he could.
"He wouldn't look at him," she said. "He had a really odd look on his face ... not a look of affection."
A homicide squad detective told the court the man, who has not been charged, was the prime suspect for the murder.
"He's No.1," he said.
The detective told the court the father had an extreme addiction to the drug ice, and close friends had provided statements that he was "out of control at the moment".
The man took ice immediately after the murder, he said.
The court heard the man, who's previously spent five months in jail, was suspected of other crimes since the murder, including amphetamines trafficking and burglary.
The detective told the court the father, who'd had a fight with a mate less than three hours before his partner was killed, had been interviewed twice over the death and had given conflicting statements.
He also said a paramedic had had to tell the father to remove his child from the room as they were desperately trying to save the woman.
The courtroom was packed with friends and family of both parents. The father was in court on Tuesday morning, but did not appear yesterday.
The magistrate said it was not in the child's best interests to be in contact with his father and denied any access.
The matter will return to court on April 9.

I know you said that your initial tests for celiac disease were negative - are they going to biopsy your duodenum to be certain?I've never had diarrhea or weight loss from Plaquenil but clearly there are people who can't tolerate Plaquenil's side effects and can't take it. Have you tried taking a break from Plaquenil to see if your digestive problems clear up?

CORONADO, Calif. – Four years ago, in the hours after Colorado became one of the first states to legalize the recreational use of marijuana, Gov. John Hickenlooper sounded a cautionary, if humorous, note: "Don't break out the Cheetos or Goldfish too quickly."
State voters overwhelmingly approved the measure, and Hickenlooper found himself wrestling with how to implement a law he had opposed.
Now, with other states passing similar measures, the Democrat has settled into an unexpected role — a kind of marijuana counselor to his peers. Governors call him up, he said, to ask for advice on pot.
"You don't get to choose what your legacy is," he said.
In the weeks before Californians voted to legalize recreational cannabis last month, Gov. Jerry Brown called Hickenlooper for consultation. Like Hickenlooper, Brown did not endorse the effort.
