I have heard that as well by many folks here... People refer to DE as the most northern southern state.. whatever that means LOL..
Salesianum is the most celebrated private school in DE and boasts by far the most state championships in boys athletics.. They are an all male Catholic private with all boys.. about 1200... Most the people in power in DE and the DIAA are Sallies grads (so is the guy who writes the articles for the News Journal)... Here is the kicker.. Sallies is in Wilmington which is 56% AA.. Salesianum has a less than 1% AA enrollment.. Of 1200 boys only 8 are AA... I don't even know how that is possible in this day and age... They do get over half their students from PA and Jersey though. The Catholic network rules the day here and that was a big part of why they squashed Red Lion.. Caravel is next on their hit list.. they built up while everyone was woriied about what Red Lion was doing LOL
"Athletic Director Mike Hart 70 welcomes you to Salesianum's school sports page. Our teams, steeped in an unprecedented, rich tradition of success, have won a whopping 117 state championships, the most in the history of the state of Delaware"

52% Grenache, 40% Shiraz, 8% Mourvedre, Screwcap closure. Les Courtilles (a series of small courtyards) is named after the village winery founded in 1997 by Bernard Schurr. The 2009 Les Courtilles Cotes du Rhone is sourced from 35 year old vines on the right bank of the Rhone between Orange and Avignon. The fruit was hand-harvested and completely de-stemmed before a long cold soak on skins and open fermentation in small concrete vessels, pumped over twice daily. The wine was transferred to stainless steel tank to finish fermentation before a further nine months maturation on lees in tank. The wine was bottled with minimal fining, filtration or sulphur addition.
A lifted and attractive nose, very modern in style and unforced, with red berry aromas met by spice and dried herbs. The palate is likewise fruit focussed and vibrant with supple black berries, candied fruit and aniseed surrounded by soft savoury spice and fine tannins. Alcohol: 14.0%
The (inaugural) 2009 release was a belter and this is none the lesser. It's a blend of shiraz 44% and grenache 48%, the remainder mourvedre. Made from 35 year old vines. Walks a delicious line between elegance and force. The southern Rhone may not be my bag, but again I'd be jumping into this. Violets, peanuts, dark cherries, kirsch. Controlled. Tight. Needs some bottle age or a decent decant. Takes the more popular opposition in its class to task. Flavour and interest at a terrific price. Rated : 91 Points Winefront

I did not like every effect on this DVD, but I will tell you the effect that is worth the whole DVD
alone, Jeopardy.
In one effect you have a whole routine and you can switch up the patter and presentation anyway you would like. I have done this various times and spectators truly love it. If you perform at private parties and do little shows, I bleive there are many effects on here, you could put every effect on this DVD into a routine and have a whole 30 - 45 minute quality show. Overall completely worth it and the teaching and quality were great. Did this review help you?
I got this as a bonus item from penguin. The dvd explains Mr. Green's act. I recently saw the act in
the Magic Castle and to be honest I wasn't very impressed. The best trick, in my opinion is
Jeopardy. The material is not original and better versions of most tricks can be found elsewhere
(books and dvds)better executed. It is not bad magic but I think you could spend your money better.

This is a good DVD for those new to magic, but I wouldn't recommend it to those who have been in
magic a while or those who have purchased other DVD's with cards, ropes, etc.
The one shining moment of this DVD in my opinion is Paul's "Jeopardy" routine. It's a clever spin on the triple prediction effect and I really enjoyed his handling. Again, new to magic: a great DVD to own; a seasoned pro: don't bother, you've seen it all before. Did this review help you?

sadly lacking.

This DVD has a lot of good stuff. There is a really good coin routine that you can use that is easy
to do and will amaze your spectators. The best part of the whole DVD is the trick Jeopardy and is in
my opinion worth the price of the DVD alone. What makes this trick so good is that a lot of it is
completely controlled by the spectator. They determine how many cards are reversed. This is a really
powerful mentalist trick. Buy this video and I'm sure you'll agree that it's well worth the money.

These is some good stuff on this DVD. Great DVD to find audience-tested material to inject into
your set. I particularly like Jeopardy, it has a fun premise, audiences can identify with the game
show theme, and it has a very funny ending. Green's version of the Professor's Nightmare and the
Cut and Restored Rope is pretty good as well. Highly recommended.

I wasn't a fan of many of the routines on this DVD, but one of them was worth the entire price!
Paul's routine, Jeopardy, is fantastic! It's an extremely good prediction effect. Basically, you
predict the outcome of a genuinely shuffled deck of cards. It's an extremely clean handling and very
easy to perform. I perform Jeopardy in close-up settings and it always kills. In my opinion, this is
worth the entire price of the DVD.

Paul green is a great teacher, as well as a great magician. he will share with you ten amazing
effects, and there is no doubt that you will find something that suits you.
A personal favourite of mine is the sponge ball routine, which has a great twist in the hand, that will surely catch your onlookers off guard (although I slightly modified it). In addition to that, jeopardy is so powerful that it will leave spectators speechless. besides, is amazingly easy to do! Did this review help you?

Cryoablation is similar to RFA in that a single tumor is identified and then targeted by a radiologist with a needle inserted through the skin directly into the cancer. However, instead of using heat, cryoablation sues a probe filled with liquid nitrogen to freeze the tumor and kill it that way. This is probably as effective as RFA but can be used in some tumor locations where heat might accidentally damage adjacent organs (like when the gallbladder or colon is too close to the tumor).
Stereotactic radiosurgery
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a new technique directing radiation (high-powered X-ray beams) directly to the tumor. Previously, radiation could not generally be used for liver cancer, because the normal liver was more sensitive to dying from radiation than the cancer was. SRS uses computer planning and CT scans to model the exact size, shape, and location of the cancer. It then directs the radiation machine, which can move around the patient in all three dimensions, to give many individual beams of radiation designed to converge just on the tumor, thus sparing much of the normal liver from the cumulative high doses. This appears to be very effective against solitary tumors.
Proton beam therapy
This technique is able to deliver high doses of radiation to a defined local area. Proton beam therapy is used in the treatment of other solid tumors as well. There are not much data yet regarding the efficacy of this treatment in liver cancer. The ideal patient is one with only a small (<5 cm) solitary lesion. To have this procedure done, the patient actually is fitted with a body cast so that he or she can be placed in the identical position for each session. Therapy is conducted daily for 15 days. Preliminary data from the U.S. suggest similar effectiveness as seen with TACE or ablation therapy. It is not known, however, whether this type of radiation treatment prolongs the life of the patient.
How do these various medical treatment procedures compare to each other?
We really don't know because there are no head-to-head studies comparing chemotherapy, chemoembolization, ablation techniques, and proton beam therapy to each other. Most reports deal with a heterogeneous group of patients who have undergone only one specific treatment procedure or another. Therefore, selection of a treatment option for a particular patient will depend primarily on the expertise of the doctors in the patient's area. Studies are also needed to evaluate combinations of these procedures (for example, proton beam and TACE). Decisions are generally made by a multidisciplinary team of liver cancer specialists who are knowledgeable and expert in all of these techniques, so that the team can choose the best method for an individual patient depending upon overall health and liver function as well as the size, number, and location of the tumors.

Designer Purse Deal: Bulga Slouchy Handbag

Designer Purse Deal: Bulga Slouchy Handbag
Remember the all-vinyl clear Bulga tote that retailed for a $400 but looked more like a cheap non-designer purse you would find in the clearance bin at macys? Well I just discovered it's long lost sister, the all leather with 14-karat yellow gold-plated hardware Slouchy Tote. I like this bag so much more than the clear version. It looks durable, long-lasting and doesn't look as cheap and plastic-ey as the all-vinyl version.

Recent Traveler Reviews
Here is a selection of the most recent reviews of the Amsterdam Super Saver 2: Windmills, Delft, The Hague and Madurodam Day Trip submitted by actual travelers. Read what travelers liked, what they loved, and what they thought could be improved.
This is an excellent tour we rcommend to anyone. The only downside was that not enough time allowed at the wind mills. The tour of Delft and The Hauge was arranged very well.
Reviewed by: K J, April 2013We enjoyed the day long tour and it was a good way to see the surrounding areas of Amsterdam.
Reviewed by: Lorri M, May 2013Need to be more organized during initial check-in, otherwise good tour would recommend!
Reviewed by: imaginarymailbox, May 2013This "Saver 2" is actually two separate trips taken one immediately after one. The impression I had when I made the reservation that the whole trip will be one (i.e. no return to Amsterdam after the first and start from Amsterdam in the second). It is better to make the Saver 2 on two different days even without the savings. I believe that the option of having the Saver 2 in 2 different dates with the same discount should be available.
Reviewed by: Hesham E, May 2013This is a full and busy day but you get to see a lot of things and it is worth it! One word of caution: Be sure to set your watch by the clock on the tour bus because they DEPART using THAT clock -- and when they say they are leaving at 2:00 they do mean 2:00 on the dot! We almost got left at the Windmills -- the bus was pulling off.

Meet the company that's successfully moved data centers since 2002
What's the biggest challenge when relocating a data center? For most IT executives, it's not the project itself that scares them, as much as it is:
"What if I don't know what I don't know?"
Many organizations successfully move data centers without external assistance. It's not unthinkable and certainly possible for the right organization. Conversely, some companies turn to outside experts, like TDS, to reduce risk and avoid overworking internal employees. Still others only engage a partner for specific aspects of the project. Regardless of where you are on the continuum, TDS can help.
Since 2002, Transitional Data Services has successfully relocated data centers across North America.
TDS is highly focused on these projects and has even created a sophisticated tool that implements a proven methodology for data center relocation projects. TDS TransitionManager™ eliminates hours of manual processes fraught with human error and replaces those random processes with an automated workflow.

Badlands Wrestling- week 3, 2/14/1983
Feb 23
, 2013, 2:03pm
Black Hills Championship Wrestling
Thursday, February 14th, 7pm
Sioux Falls Armory, Sioux Falls SD
Referees: Bart Batton, Mike Chioda
Ring Announcer Tony Schiavone
Attendance- 630
Prior to the Opening Match, ring announcer Tony Schiavone goes over the rules for tonights tournament to crown a new South Dakota State Heavyweight Champion. There will be a draw to determine the order and participants in each matchup. Once the semifinals have finished, we will go straight into the championship match. This is designed to reward wrestlers who can finish off their opponents quickly, or have the toughness to compete in back to back matches.
Tony brings out All-American Jim Wilson to assist in the draw. As he is barred from competing in the tournament due to the presence of Black Angus Campbell, he has generously agreed to help with determining the matchups. Jims presence brings out Percival A Friend and Black Angus, who say they are there to counter Wilsons blatant bias and cheating ways. It is all Wilson can do to keep from decking them both.
The draw gives the following matchups:
Quarterfinal One- Black Angus Campbell draws Strong Kobayashi
Quarterfinal Two- Buddy Wolfe faces newcomer Tony Parisi
Quarterfinal Three- European Cruiserweight Champion Johnny Saint faces Angelo Mosca Jr.
Quarterfinal Four- Apache Bull Ramos pairs off against the Mighty Inoue
This draw seems to favor Black Angus, and in truth there seemed to be points at the start of the draw where Percival was a little more involved than others
Match One- Black Angus Campbell over Strong Kobayashi
Match Two- Tony Parisi over Buddy Wolfe- The debuting Parisi showed why has been such a popular and successful tag team wrestler back east, turning aside the challenge of Wolfe.
Match Three- Angelo Mosca over Johnny Saint. Angelo Mosca advances in the tournament, but not in a way he would have liked. The match was a scientific affair, with Saint appearing heading for a narrow victory, when Mick McManus and Handsome Jimmy Del Ray appear at ringside. While McManus draws the attention of Mosca and the Ref, Del Ray trips up Saint, enabling Mosca to get the pinfall victory.
Match Four- Apache Bull Ramos over The mighty Inoue in another of Ramos patented brawls.
Match Five- Black Angus Campbell over Tony Parisi when Percival interferes.
Match Six- Angelo Mosca over Bull Ramos by DQ. Ramos continues his reign of terror here in South Dakota, putting a hurt on the young rookie. He bloodies Mosca, and continues to beat on him when he is trapped in the corner, despite the referees instructions to give a clean break. The referee has no option but to disqualify Ramos. Despite the fact that he is eliminated from the tournament, The Bull doesnt seem at all upset by the results.
Match Seven- Black Angus over Angelo Mosca. Despite advancing in the semis, Mosca is in no condition to face Black Angus. He gamely puts up a fight, but Campbell is only in trouble once, and his manager Percival quickly gets him back on track. The match becomes a mugging before Black Angus finally pins Mosca to become the new South Dakota Heavyweight Champion. Following the match, Angus and Friend celebrate with the title belt, and then begin to put the boots to their downed opponent. This brings both Jim Wilson and Tony Parisi racing from the back to chase them off, getting in a few good licks in the process!
Wilson gets on the house mic and says that while he cant help Mosca get revenge on Campbell, he CAN give Bull Ramos some payback for his actions. He wants him in the ring next week!
Parisi takes the mic and says that he is under no restrictions, so if Mosca isnt recovered in time to be Campbells 1st title opponent next week, Parisi will be more than happy to give Campbell everything he can ask for!
Great Salt Lake Wrestling
Thursday, February 7th, 6pm
East High School, Salt Lake City, UT
Referee: Rick Davis
Attendance- 850
The opening match saw Steve Gatorwolf defeat Villano II.
The Mormon Giant Don Leo Jonathan is introduced to the crowd. He announces that he has been named the president of Great Salt Lake Wrestling, and they are in negotiations to bring Utah into the National Wrestling Alliance. The NWA is considered the Major League of Professional Wrestling throughout North America, and Great Salt Lake Wrestling is looking forward to being approved for membership.
In the second match masked wrestlers Villano III and Rayo de Jalisco battled to a 30 minute draw.
The team of Eddie Sullivan and Rip Tyler used some questionable tactics to hand The Samoan Connection their first loss here in Great Salt Lake Wrestling.
The debuting Cien Caras fell to the still undefeated Dr Wagner.
Prior to the Main Event, Don Leo Jonathan says that his first act as president is a sad one. He announces that in order to avoid the possibility that any actions in the Main Event will cast a shadow over their quest to join the NWA, the final match will be a non-sanctioned, lights out no-holds-barred contest. (While Jonathan cast this as bad news, it actually drew a huge cheer from those in attendance, who didnt want any technicalities to get in the way of a good fight.)
Main Event- The Saint Valentines Day Massacre
Russ Francis (NFL All Pro Tight End) and Billy Francis vs Dynamite Jack Evans and Bomber Ray Evans
This match promised to be a brawl, and it didnt disappoint. The Evans brothers used their nasty temperament and experience to take control of the match early on, but as the fight progressed and spread all around the arena, the size and strength advantage of the Billy and Russ started to come into play. The match continued for the better part of an hour, and in the end the toughness of the Francis brothers shows, as a bloody Billy managed to pin a battered Dynamite Jack in the center of the ring.

Great Badlands action. Let me state that from the outset.
I was pulling for Mosca, Jr. but, realistically, I knew what the chances were. Congrats to Campbell for becoming the new South Dakota champ. Ramos and Wilson and Parisi and Campbell are some nice follow-up rivalries coming out. i was stoked when you said at the outset that the Francis Brothers were going to be a team from the outset. That hasn't disappointed. Loved old Sully and Rip using their usual tricks. Nice tip of the cap to your using Jonathan.

Tony Parisi makes a nice addition to this roster.
The Francis Bros vs the Evans Bros should be a good feud to get BCW off the ground.

Noel gently touched Howard's face, tears now flowing rapidly as he lay there without movement. When he started to breath she jumped a little, her heart beating excitedly.
"Yes..yes it worked!" She said in between tears, leaning down to kiss him deeply. Noel held him tight, running we fingers through his hair as she squeezed tighter. "You scared me so much. Don't ever do that again." She said seriously.

IC: Harbinger (Las Vegas)
I put away my rifle before drawing my eagle and my longsword. I moved forward, unleashing five bullets into the chest of a cop before I sliced through the arms of his comrade. Blood glittered in the air for a moment as the light from the cop cars struck it. Violence was beautiful, and it was right. Kids around the world spent hours in their room playing videogames where they shot people. Well I lived that. I embodied the antagonist they often battled against. I enjoyed it.
A cop raised his gun at me ready to fire. Time seemed to slow around me as my reflexes kicked in, I moved to the side slightly as bullets burst past me before I drove a knee into the man's gut doubling him over. I stuck my blade through him now and placed my gun in his open mouth before I pulled the trigger.
There was an small bursting sound as the back of his head popped like fat kids attacking a piñata. I tore my sword out of him and kicked him to the ground. There were little cops left. Even the armored SWAT officers were being torn apart by my assassins. When needed my assassins showed flashes of their powers. Some of them were mutants, some of them were supernatural, and others were simply lethal humans. They were all my students, my children in a sense. That's what I called them: Children of the Corn.
That classic story was very dear to me. It embodied a truth in my own life. Like the children from King's story we followed a power, an entity within the corn field. But she was out mistress, Death. We killed for her. We hid ourselves amongst the corn before we descended on the living and tore them apart.
"Children its time to kill the lights," I said into my headset. Since we were involved with the Closed Circuit Syndicate many of them were excellent hackers. They'd already been in place. Soon all of the lights in ten blocks in either direction suddenly cut out. The area went pitch black except for the flashing lights of the cop cars and the flames of burning buildings. Not to mention the occasional flash of gunfire.
Ah the darkness. How I loved it. My men were trained in the darkness; no they were born again in it. Baptized by the darkness, taught to melt into the shadows and live within them. We were in out element now. The darkness was our cornfield.
I ran through the darkness holding a gas-can. As I ran I sprinkled it on the ground behind me, right past the cop cars. When the can was empty I tossed it to the ground before aiming my eagle and firing into the flashing lights of a cop car. There was a shower of sparks. Then there were flames, and explosions. The Children had known to back away, but the cops weren't so lucky. The cop cars began to ignite one by one, transforming into balls of flame and heat. Men screamed as they were burned and blasted away. Me? I simply smiled before pulling out another cigarette and lighting it. This? This was child's play. I hadn't even revealed my powers yet. They would only be revealed when truly needed. But for now I was simply having fun.

Alistair froze in place, caught completely off guard by the outburst.
Slowly, he turned back to her, regaining his composure. "Now, now. I didn't say they lied. Some of their facts were merely drawn from versions of the myth less widely accepted, and other pieces had to be removed to keep things child friendly."

IC [Luz/Alameda]
What are these humans arguing about? Luz looked up from her coffee; it certainly was a large group of people, and that bombastic man coming up to them... they reeked of something extraordinary. Perhaps a traveling band of mortals. Perhaps mutants. Perhaps something worse. That man... it was difficult to make out in the din of the room, but he spoke of the Arthurian legends. Curious things, these European legends. So very inconsistent. But the man... it was simply a feeling, a hunch, but she had learned to trust her instincts after the decades.
"You there," she walked slowly over to the table. "You seem to know a lot about the Arthurian legends. Did you study them at a university?"

"So um, yeah, see yah."Another yawn escaped his lips as he noticed the weirdo with the cloak walk up to the group. At this point I think I'm just hallucinating, I really need sleep.

Still holding Liliana's hand John began to walk off towards the Blackbird. "Glad you decided to show Summers," he grinned at Matt.
"Oh you know me John, I'm not one to miss a good fight." Matt shot back as he followed the others.
Christine started off towards the hanger-bay. She sighed, it seemed Aleks had decided to stay.

A sigh, barely audible over Ashley's shouting, exited Alistair's mouth. So many people, so much noise... There goes my quiet study session.
He took a sip of his coffee, even as yet another person approached. His eyes flicked up to look at the newcomer, setting his cup down once more. "Hmm? Oh, no. I haven't gone to college just yet. Don't really feel the need."
"No, I learned from my father. He was a professor in England, quite fond of old stories and myths. I suppose I inherited the habit."

"All I really know about Arthur is that he was probably based off a random Romano-Briton commander guy or whatever who beat up Saxons and got glorified as a King of Camelot who pulled out a sword from a stone and had a child with his half-sister who later decided to take over Camelot because Arthur learnt of a prophecy or something and killed every baby and stuff and then went off on a campaign and came back and died fighting Mordred who was his son and lives on a boat."

"Wow that was before I was even born," she blushed. "Do you think you could take me there one day?"
IC: NPC Novocain (Hellfire Labs)
Novocain watched as Lynae left his lab and he shrugged before glancing to Jace. "Won't you follow her? Men always follow the blondes."
He then stood huddled over the form of a corpse. The corpse's eyes were wide open and his face screwed into a look of shock and horror. He looked like he had been dead for only a few hours, and his chest cavity looked like it had been eaten away by something, Novocain was currently prodding around inside his chest with some crude looking medical instruments. He was wearing his usual white doctor's smock, but it was now splattered with dark red blood. He grinned at the corpse and then suddenly grabbed something off the nearby counter. Novocain leveled the pistol at the corpses' head.
"Any last words mother ******?" Novocain said, his face lighting up with a sadistic smile. He suddenly broke out in harrowing laughter and set the pistol down.
"Don't worry I'm not going to kill you. Oh wait, that's right you're already dead," He cackled. "I assume you're here for entertainment." He said. He suddenly grabbed the corpses hand and forced him to wave at Jace.
"Don't worry this man was killed by the virus not me." He said, using the dead man's arm to point in the right direction. On another metal table laid a humanoid form, covered by a grey lab-sheet.
"I've been testing the virus on them, it changes its methods, but they always die." He said.
Novocain walked over to the table, and pulled off the sheet, revealing the corpse of another man beneath. The man looked quite peaceful. His eyes were closed, and his face was set in a neutral emotionless manner. His usual brown skin was now much paler in death. Novocain examined the man for a moment.
"He used to be my lab partner, did you know?"
"He was a good partner, a little on the soft side but he worked well. But I needed a test subject." He said; stroking the corpse's cheek with his metal hand as he spoke. "He lives within my mind now, just another voice within my skull. His name was Tony, and he isn't a very nice house guest, always muttering, always telling me what to do…"
"Tony shut the **** up!" Novocain roared, suddenly throwing a medical knife at the wall; the knife stuck into a wooden cupboard and stayed there, vibrating slightly.
"I apologize for that, Tony apparently didn't appreciate me talking about him, the frigging Nazi." He said.
"You know… I almost died once. It was incredibly painful; believe me you don't want to go through it. Yes, as Weapon-X came crashing down I was buried under a pile of rubble and stabbed to all heII by the mutant known as Windrider." He said, touching a place on his chest where he must have been stabbed.
"But I wasn't allowed to die. I used my machinery to keep me alive; I fused the last of my nano-technology into an armor I used to replace the broken and mangled parts of me." He said motioning to his half robotic body, before shifting his metal arm into a cannon.
"Go ahead and do your thing Jace. I need to prepare for the battle, I'm coming for the X-Men you see, I will be the one who kills that ****** Windrider, they will be going to Las Vegas very soon." Novocain then grabbed a medical buzz-saw and strapped it to his belt.
Suddenly Novocain began to shake with what looked like pain. He stumbled over to the counter and grabbed a needle that was filled with a clear fluid. Novocain jabbed it into his arm and injected it into himself. When he was finished he shuddered and pulled out the needle. He sighed in relief.
"I have terrible pains… I inject Novocain into myself to relieve them, hence my codename." He explained.
"You want any?" he asked, waving another needle at Jace.
"I've recently developed a new drug I call Nitroids. It augments your strength and speed drastically. It allows users to run up to sixty miles an hour, be able to smash through most things when they inject themselves with it. I'd offer it to you but it has some side-effects, like driving people insane or killing them. It's too bad really; it is a wonder-drug." He said; collecting some more needles filled with the said drug as he spoke. "I think these might come in handy though, turning some civilians into insane power-houses could be fun."
"I used to take a different drug, it transformed me into a massive brute; similar to Banner's Hulk, but it lowered my intelligence, and I became to massive, cumbersome." He said. He then pointed over to a tank a few feet away. The tank was massive and inside it was floating a huge muscled monstrosity, easily nine feet tall and broad as a tank.
"I would become like that. Don't worry he's dead, he didn't survive the treatment, but remained in that form, I decided to keep him as decoration." He said.
"When you're finished you can leave, I'm sure you've heard me ramble enough. But come back sometime if you are ever bored, you're a really nice conversationalist you know that Jace?"
There was some movement on the floor and a large grey rat sprinted across the tile. Novocain squealed with delight and snatched the rat up.
"Don't worry he's not a pest, this is my friend Harry. Harry the rat." He said. He picked up one of Harry's small little paws and used it to wave at Jace.
"Goodbye… uh what's your name…" he said trailing off.

Silently, Kristy followed the others onto the blackbird. Shadow started to gather around tree branch that she had picked up. Focusing her negative energy into the darkness, a strange energy began to writhe violently around the branch before settling into a blade-like form. Letting the dark ice solidify, Kristy tucked her makeshift dagger into her belt. "Just in case," she thought.

Ashley then noticed an older women with grayish hair come up and start asking questions about the Arthur Legend. That seemed to be the hot topic of today. "Hi I'm Ashley! You like mysterious legends too?"
Speaking of the legends, Ashley had a question, she turned back to Alistair. "Hey do you think the Excalibur actually exists?

Jeff looked at Gabriel in a bit of surprise, he had stopped by some bushes to grab something of his that he had hidden there, his rapier. He wasn't going into battle without it.

Julia followed Alex to the Blackbird.
Demon dissipated again, stretching himself far and wide, aiming to electrocute every single one of these insane killers--and then the power went out. Without any electricity to replenish and sustain himself, he would inevitably die at the hands of these maniacs. So, despite his urge to kill all of them, he vanished through the collapsed ceiling of the casino.
Warren's prayers were answered when a few AA's landed at his feet. When he looked up, he saw none other than Malus Munroe himself, grinning as creepily as ever.
Shaw proudly strode away from the Enforcer building after a quick meet with the organization's finance manager. He had opened a regular payment line towards the Sentinel program simply so that he had at least a small degree of control over how many were being manufactured at a given time. Now, it was off to run his next little errand...
We were becoming quite tired and bored, so while the puny humans were being distracted by the birds, we slipped away unnoticed.

Ooc: Extra dialogue provided in advance by Jon Snow and Rawrmouse.
Ic: Someone else appeared from the portal just as Armin shut it -- and swung at open air as it seemed. He was just a boy wearing typical unfashionable garb, though if he came from the Hellfire mansion it was clear he wasn't just a kid. Still, Armin swung his pistol to him with a reflexive draw.
"Sorry if this is private, just thought you wouldn't mind not being stabbed in the back," the kid said.
"Who are you and what did you just do?" Armin asked firmly, not exactly keen on having strangers jump through his portal.
"Nick Kairos. Thermal vision beats invisibility. Unless that was a friend of yours, she was trying to put a knife in your back," he said promptly.
Stohl's hand wavered for a moment as he twitched in hesitation, then he slowly put the gun away as Lynae seemed comfortable with this boy being there. Perhaps this was for the better after all, having an extra person there, though he didn't know how much he could trust Nick. Still, he had to be reasonable and nodded. "Alright. Armin Stohl," he said in introduction, "and you're now in Las Vegas. In a few moments the X-Men, or other mutants in general, will be arriving to answer the summons of a terrorist and his goons here. I'm impartial; both the villain and the heroes are my targets," he summarized."
His attention turned to Lynae to answer her remark earlier; Armin couldn't help but chuckle and smile. "Don't worry. When this is episode is wrapped up we'll have that date night. You'll enjoy Las Vegas, I guarantee it."
"Oh yes..." she laughed halfheartedly, "running away from the x-men is a wonderful date!"
"Right, because that's obviously what will happen," Armin prodded back.
Lynae pursed her lips, her eyes burning in aggravation. "Why do you hate mu--"
Armin put a finger to his lips and silenced Lynae -- then was not the time to discuss the matter. "We'll talk about it when this is done."
"No." She said, pushing his finger away. "Don't treat me like some young child. Though my beauty remains, remember that I'm older than you." She said with a slight smile.
"Yes. All this time and yet you have not learned that I keep my promises," Armin replied softly. The fact that she was older didn't exactly mean anything to him, to be truthful, so he didn't have qualms fighting back with his own points. "Tonight I'll tell you the rest of the story once this place isn't a hotspot for activity. Right now, though, we need to move and get a better view of the action and can't stay here in this little alcove for long."
"At least let me get a small snack? There are so many options here," she said as her eyes followed a group of young men and women as they passed by, their bodies just a glancing view from within the alcove that protected the small crowd of special people from public eyes.
"Sure," Armin said curtly, thinking that if she was hungry she would need to regain strength regardless. And if it was good for her then it was good for him. "Go ahead. But I'm not waiting; come join us inside this building when you're finished," he said, jerking his thumb at the parking garage they partially occupied. "Nick, you're here now so you don't have a choice. Come with me."

"Sorry..." He said with a rather honest tone. "...I really didn't have many options available at that moment so I went with the one that was most likely to work before the whole carrier collapsed into the ocean." He explained, he frowned.

"He must of taught you well then." Luz frowned. Her knowledge of the legend was... appropriate. Nothing extraordinary but she could tell this man knew a great many things about the legend of Arthur. What pinged her true interest through was the collection of strange characters present, noticeably the very bombastic Oriental fellow. She knew little of him but she could tell he was some sort of warrior. Or this strangely eager girl that spoke far too fast. Her curiosity was perked though, and she thought that it could be interesting to test this mortal's knowledge. "Do you know anything of the lore of this continent and it's people?"

"Well, there are varying theories on that. Some people believe that King Arthur, and by extension Excalibur, actually existed. Obviously elements of the tale have been dramatized, but there are those who firmly believe in it. Others are less certain." Alistair replied to Ashley, before glancing back to Luz.
"Admittedly, my knowledge of this region's mythology is not nearly as thorough as I would like. I've only been here for a few years, and my knowledge is largely focused upon European and Asian legends. In short, my knowledge with regards to Native American myths is far less than I would like."

Crispy Potato Tots
From Cook's Country
We recently found that our nostalgia for frozen tots, like many kid-friendly foods, outshone the reality. Determined to right this wrong, we hit the kitchen in search of potato tots with a golden, crunchy exterior and light, fluffy interior. Many recipes simply mix coarsely ground potato with flour and egg, but these tots fried up into raw, dense nuggets. Parcooking the chopped potato in the microwave was a step in the right direction, but the tots were still too heavy. Reducing the flour and omitting the egg helped, but the tots were still not light and fluffy. To minimize the gluey texture of potato starch, we tried processing the potatoes with water. Perfection. This step rinsed off the excess starch, and a small amount of salt in the mixture kept the interior downy white.
Makes 4 dozen
If your food processor has a capacity of less than 11 cups, you'll need to process the potatoes in two batches. If any large pieces of potato remain after processing, chop them coarsely by hand. To make handling the uncooked tots easier, use a wet knife blade and wet hands.

Andres Torres, career minor league journeyman reborn in 2010, has been a major part of the Giants offense — and defense — this season. One of the reasons that Torres has been so valuable to the G's this year has been his plate approach. Torres has an excellent BB% of 13.9% at the moment — league average tends to be around 8% — to go along with a hearty .389 on-base percentage. Delicious, delicious OBP.
All of that on-based goodness stems from Torres' approach at the dish — he rarely swings at pitches outside of the strike zone. You'll often hear announcers state that a certain player has a good idea of the strike zone, Torres fits that phrase almost perfectly.
This week's graph shows Torres swings vs. non-swings on pitches outside of the standard PFX strike zone.
I posted similar graphs back in last September for Fred Lewis and Pablo Sandoval. But, as you can see, Torres isn't very likely to swing outside of the zone. They say that players tend to walk more as they age to compensate for the loss of skills, but Torres has seemingly developed both power and an eye at the dish as he's aged. One has to wonder how much time the 32-year-old Torres has left? Even if you think that his hitting ability could slip — or revert back to his late days in AAA — his defense should keep him valuable. And until the wheels come off, I'll be enjoying Torres' turn-around as a player. It's probably one of the more remarkable transformations that I've seen in baseball.

Judge Ronald Prager, during a Feb. 22 status conference hearing in San Diego Superior Court, told attorneys he was willing to vacate his ruling if it would help end the nearly nine years of litigation that cost taxpayers a collective total of $46 million, He had previously dismissed the county's damages claims on grounds that its $102 million settlement with Rancho Cucamonga investor group Colonies Partners LP in 2006 was corrupt.
Colonies bankrolled a residential and commercial development on a 434-acre parcel of land in Upland, which was hindered by flood control damage due to the extension of the 210 Freeway and the rerouting of an Upland storm drain that diverted floodwater onto Colonies' property, the developer. Jeff Burum, alleged in a lawsuit filed in March 2002.
The county, in its lawsuit against Upland, Caltrans and San Bernardino Associated Governments (SanBAG), alleged the defendants were responsible for the flood damage because they headed the infrastructure projects, and the county sought partial reimbursement for the settlement, which state and local prosecutors now say was tainted by bribery.
Prager told attorneys at last month's hearing
"If it would aid to the settlement of the case . . . I don't have that much of a pride of ownership in this ruling that I want to see it reviewed by a higher court. I mean, I'd like to see you resolve this case," Prager said, according to the transcript.
After an unprecedented series of closed-session meetings following Prager's Feb. 5 decision, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors announced Tuesday that it had reached a settlement with the defendants. They all agreed to walk away from the lawsuit, and the defendants agreed not to pursue attorneys' fees from the county.
And Judge Prager struck his ruling from the court record, according to the minute order from Tuesday's settlement conference.
"It is no longer a matter of record on the docket," said attorney Mitchell Norton of the County Counsel's Office.
The county still has a pending case with its insurance carrier, the California State Association of Counties Excess Insurance Authority. Norton declined to comment on the impact, if any, Prager's decision will have on the county's pending arbitration with its insurance carrier.
David Lane, the attorney representing the insurance carrier in the arbitration, did not respond to telephone calls Friday seeking comment.
Some experts speculate Prager may have given the county the escape clause it needed.
"In practical effect, he did what the county wanted by vacating the decision. They don't have to argue it on appeal now," said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the UC Irvine School of Law, adding that Prager's purging of his ruling will likely be a benefit to the county as it pursues compensation for the Colonies settlement through its carrier.
That isn't necessarily so, said John T. Nockleby, a Loyola Law School professor and director of the university's Civil Justice Program. The rules of evidence, he said, are more lax in arbitration proceedings than in formal judicial proceedings.
"When you have an arbitration, that information that might have been excluded in a formal judicial proceeding might be admissable in this context because it's not a formal legal proceeding," Nockleby said, "And one piece of evidence they might want to present is that a judge, before vacating his decision, had decided that this was a corrupt settlement. "
He said it is likely the county's insurance carrier will try and use Prager's ruling in the arbitration.
"It is something that will potentially affect the outcome of the case," Nockleby said.

NPR Features Cure Alzheimer's Fund
Cure Alzheimer's Fund was featured this morning in a two-part segment on National Public Radio. The piece details the founding of Cure Alzheimer's Fund, our venture approach and some of the science that is providing the way to a cure. WGBH in Boston introduced the piece:
For more than five million patients and their estimated ten million caregivers, Alzheimer's disease is a scourge, a memory-stealing, brain-clogging affliction that costs the United States more than $170 billion a year, though its true impact on the lives of American families is incalculable.
In the first installment of our 2-part series, "Venture Philanthropy: An Investor's Approach to Curing Alzheimer's," reporter Sean Corcoran introduces us to a small group of local business leaders who are using their proven investment techniques — and their personal fortunes — to assemble what they believe are the world's most promising researchers to slow, stop or reverse the disease.

AS one of the smallest homes in town, Lissa Villeneuve's South Hobart abode well and truly bucks the trend of increasingly larger houses.
Standing at a tiny 4.5m x 9m, the house was built in 2007 for Sustainable Living Tasmania food program and event manager Lissa, 34, and her son Avian Doube-Villeneuve, 6.
"I wanted the home to take up less space so there would be more room to grow food and for kids to play," she said.
"It's all the space we need and no more. We don't need extra space to clean!"
Located only 4km from the Hobart CBD, the environmentally friendly home was built by Timber World.
With building and utility price rises, Ms Villeneuve says a home with a small footprint is much kinder on finances both during and after construction.
In fact, it has proved such a winning formula she has decided to stick with it, with plans for another slightly larger, but still small home.
"We're in the planning stages now for another home on the block which has a similar footprint but with two mezzanine bedrooms," she said.

Plymouth bids to build 5,000 homes, as 5,000 more are set to start in Sherford
Plymouth planners are trying to kick-start "stalled" developments that could see thousands of new homes being built.
There are 5,179 homes in Plymouth which have planning permission but where progress has been held up.
Now planners have reviewed all 96 sites involved, Cllr Mark Lowry, the city's Cabinet member for finance, told a scrutiny panel yesterday.
At the same time the council is selling 10 sites it owns to developers, and will see more than 600 new homes built on those derelict buildings and unwanted patches of land.

Contact: 01858 468192
Valid until: Friday, May 31 2013
The council has fast-tracked technical issues to allow work to start quickly on several sites. These include 132 homes in Notte Street; 130 at Unity Park, Efford; 85 at St Augustine's in Alexandra Road; and 58 on the latest phase of the Vision site in Devonport.
"On larger developments we have worked with landowners and developers to discuss how we can remove the barriers to development," Cllr Lowry said. "We are confident that during 2013 we will see progress on a number of stalled sites."
Planners are also tackling 33 sites which were granted planning permission for 489 homes where landowners and developers have allowed the permission to lapse.
"Some are lying idle and we promised we would get tough on unsightly building sites by getting them tidied up," Cllr Lowry said. "If appropriate we would allow some temporary uses whilst new development proposals are worked up.
There have been discussions on the three biggest lapsed sites: Colin Campbell Court, Millbay Marina and the former Crescent Cars site.
Last autumn the council issued a call for new sites, telling developers it would fast-track these through the planning system.
"We received a disappointing response from the local development industry who only suggested a couple of sites," Cllr Lowry said.
"In the meantime we have worked with more proactive developers like Plymouth Community Homes, Barratts, Mount Wise (Devon) Limited, Devon and Cornwall and Redrow to enable completion of around 350 homes in the last year, with another 705 dwellings under construction.
"There are some 414 homes currently at pre-application stage which we expect to be planning applications before the end of 2013.
Nick Carter, the council's housing delivery team leader, said they were working on a new way of helping people to buy their own homes.
The scheme, which has been developed in Plymouth but will be rolled out nationally, will allow people to rent until they are in a position to buy.
Paul Barnard, the council's chief planner, said that the type of housing being built in Plymouth was changing.
In 2008/09 83 per cent of new homes were flats, but in the last full financial year that had fallen to 35 per cent.
Over the same period the proportion of terraced houses rose from 13 to 50 per cent.
Plymouth City Council has agreed deals that will see 616 homes built on derelict sites it owns.
The council's planning department is working with developers to deliver another 5,000 homes which already have planning permission.
And the council is contacting the owners of small sites where planning permissions exist for a total of 498 homes yet to be built.
The schemes are part of the "Get Plymouth building" initiative, which is aiming to deliver about 2,000 new homes altogether, and create more than 800 jobs within the next two to three years.
Six of the 10 new council-owned sites are former schools, and they will include 264 affordable homes delivered by housing associations.
About £4million of the cash for developing the land will come from Homes and Communities Agency grants, and the council expects to earn £5.9million from the Government's New Homes Bonus.
Cllr Mark Lowry, the city's Cabinet member for finance, announced the projects at a scrutiny meeting yesterday.
He said: "We desperately need more affordable housing. With such high house prices and low average wages it's incredibly difficult for first-time buyers to get on the housing ladder without the help of the 'bank of mum and dad'."
The average house price in Plymouth is more than £160,000. A buyer would need a deposit and an income of at least £28,000 to buy a two-bed property.
Mid-range income in the city is £23,600, and 20 per cent of people earn less than £15,930.
Cllr Lowry said the schemes would support more than 200 jobs in construction and associated businesses and new homes would be built to high environmental standards.
Paul Barnard, the council's chief planner, said he was confident the 10 big sites would be developed and would not be 'land-banked' by speculators.
He told panel members that the pre-application process on some of the sites began yesterday.
"I would like to get all of the consents in place by the end of this year, subject to the planning committee's consideration," he said.
Nick Carter, the housing delivery team leader, said companies which had won Homes and Communities Agency grants would have to deliver by March 2015.
And Cllr Lowry said: "I will be doing all that's legally allowable to ensure that developments happen as soon as possible."
Plymouth Community Homes is proposing to build 140 homes on the former Southway Primary School site. The development will include new sports pitches and changing rooms.
Clive Turner, the PCH chief executive, said: "We are delighted to have the opportunity to further our work as Plymouth's largest social housing provider."
A second Southway site is the old Pluss training centre. Cllr Lowry has approved the sale of the one-acre site to developers Westward Housing Group.
It was vacated by the disability training group Pluss in January 2011 and ransacked by burglars.
Andy Mitchelmore from AJM Building Design Ltd has agreed to buy the former Astor Centre in Mount Gould Road.
He said: "Our scheme will help tackle the issue of fuel poverty by using the latest green technologies to reduce heating costs."
Sanctuary Housing Association is planning to build 70 homes at the former Woodlands and Hillside schools, including five sites for self-build schemes.
CONTROVERSIAL plans to build on a sports ground have been withdrawn – but a housing developer has said it will plough on despite substantial opposition.
Plans to build 95 homes on part of the Civil Service Sports Ground at Beacon Park were withdrawn last week by Redrow housing.
There has been strong opposition to the plans, which would only retain two pitches, from groups including Sport England, The FA, Devon Cricket and Devon County FA.
Paul Morrison, CEO of Devon County FA, said in a letter that they strongly object to the planning application.
He said: "To be able to make the facility sustainable long-term the Devon FA are of the view that other sports use needs to be retained on the site."
Redrow has already changed its initial scheme to build 150 homes on the site after a public consultation.
Local resident Mike Smith, of Beacon Park Road, said: "Some of the council departments have come out in favour of retaining the facilities – the rugby pitches, the football pitches and the bowls ground. I think the council departments getting involved has swung the balance, but by withdrawing it Redrow can submit another application."
Redrow had hit back amid concerns by saying that they will bring two of the disused pitches back to life.
Keith Annis, planning director for Redrow, said: "Following our initial planning application, we are working with the council on a new scheme which we will be submitting in due course.
"Working with the council, we are committed to delivering a scheme for this site that meets the company's own high standards, together with the needs of local residents, and with our work with the council we hope to achieve this very soon."
A PLAN to build a new community of 5,500 homes on the eastern outskirts of Plymouth has passed one of its last big hurdles.
After years of wrangling planners have thrashed out details of a deal with the developers, Red Tree.
Sherford new town will straddle the boundary between Plymouth and the South Hams.
A community sports hall and 320 of the 5,500 homes will be in Plymouth.
Paul Barnard, Plymouth's chief planner, told The Herald that a deal had been agreed and the documents had been handed over to the lawyers to "dot the Is and cross the Ts".
And Cllr John Tucker, leader of South Hams District Council, said: "We have been working with Red Tree to finalise the terms of the planning agreement. It is correct to say that we have made good progress and we are now finalising the wording of the agreement.
"Once this legal document has been finalised with the developers and the other landowners and parties concerned, which we hope will be achieved shortly, outline planning permission can be granted for the development.
"It must be stressed however that, as the developer, Red Tree will be responsible for working up the detailed proposals. The future timings of the development will be down to them and not the council."
James Koe, partner of Red Tree, said: "A great deal of work has gone into finalising the details of the planning agreement for Sherford and Red Tree can confirm that from its perspective there is now a settled agreement.
"This has been distributed to the various signatories, including the local authorities, for final approval which we believe is imminent and which would then allow the planning consent to be issued.
"Once this process is completed and the planning consent is issued Red Tree would want to move to the delivery phase of Sherford at the earliest opportunity."

About Canola oil
I didn't know that canola oil is bad. I don't buy any but I'm sure there might be some in some of the things I buy. I'll make sure to avoid it now.
Could you please tell me a bit more about it?
Thank you!
Thank you
I checked in my pantry and I don't have any, yeah! The veggie chips I got were made with sunflower oil.
I do my shopping at natural grocers/vitamin cottage. All their produce is organic and the rest of the store is suppose to be organic or good natural products...but they do have canola oil, that's why I didn't know it was bad but also I never knew what it was, and never bought it!
Thank you very much for your answer Marta, I started my day learning someting new, awesome!
Have a great day : )

I live in NE Georgia and my last iris bloom finished yesterday. I see no more buds. Is that unusual or is around May 15th usually the end of TB iris season for my area?
If not, I'm guessing that I just don't have any late-blooming varieties and would love suggestions on some that would extend the season for me. Thank you! |
Follow-Up Postings:
You might be a bit behind me (Zone 8 here), but this is indeed the end of the iris bloom season here. Anything that hasn't bloomed by this point here would be considered quite late. I have a few final blooms left but not many. Mike in SC |
- Posted by organic_kitten 7 (My Page) on Sun, May 17, 09 at 15:20
I have only two that are budded but haven't opened yet. In addition, I have another 7 or 8 that are still blooming. In light of all the blooms I've had, I'd say the main season is coming to an end. I do have a couple of rebloomers, and one of them bloomed last year, about 5 weeks after it was planted. Sad to see them go, isn't it? But the daylilies boom has started!!! Hooray! |
