Published in Christian Saints & Heroes
CHESAPEAKE, VA (Catholic Online) - I proclaimed the Gospel on the morning of January 2, 2013, the Memorial of Saints Basil the Great and Gregory Nazianzen, Bishops, Doctors. I would hasten to add these two men were also true friends. The Gospel passage featured a familiar character from our Christmas season, John the Baptizer. Here is a portion:
"This is the testimony of John: When the Jews from Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to him to ask him, "Who are you?" He admitted and did not deny it, but admitted, "I am not the Christ." So they asked him, "What are you then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not."
In my Morning Prayer before Mass, after reflecting on the readings in preparation for Mass, I prayed the Liturgy of the Hours. The passage in the Office of Readings was an excerpt from an account by St Gregory Nazianzen in which he spoke of his friendship with Basil.
Theirs was a friendship which began as children and lasted throughout their entire lifetime. It is a testimony to the beauty of authentic, manly, Christian friendship. In an age which is relationally confused and has lost an understanding of the gift of friendship between men, it provides us with a reminder that friendship is a form of love.
Thus, as with all love, friendship participates in the Love of God from which it derives. Greek, the original language of the New Testament, differentiates between the forms of love.English is limited in that regard. Friendship is a form of love. Those who are Baptized into Christ and choose to live their lives in Him are His Friends. (John 15:15) Friendship between men who bear the name Christian is a witness to the eternal truth of the fullness of Love .
Here is a portion of this beautiful tribute to a friend: "Basil and I were both in Athens. We had come, like streams of a river, from the same source in our native land, had separated from each other in pursuit of learning, and were now united again as if by plan, for God so arranged it."
"I was not alone at that time in my regard for my friend, the great Basil. I knew his irreproachable conduct, and the maturity and wisdom of his conversation. I sought to persuade others, to whom he was less well known, to have the same regard for him."
"The same hope inspired us: the pursuit of learning. This is an ambition especially subject to envy. Yet between us there was no envy. On the contrary, we made capital out of our rivalry. Our rivalry consisted, not in seeking the first place for oneself but in yielding it to the other, for we each looked on the other's success as his own."
"Our single object and ambition was virtue, and a life of hope in the blessings that are to come; we wanted to withdraw from this world before we departed from it. With this end in view we ordered our lives and all our actions. We followed the guidance of God's law and spurred each other on to virtue. If it is not too boastful to say, we found in each other a standard and rule for discerning right from wrong."
"Different men have different names, which they owe to their parents or to themselves, that is, to their own pursuits and achievements. But our great pursuit, the great name we wanted, was to be Christians, to be called Christians."
As I sat down after proclaiming the Gospel from the Ambo I was struck by the common thread which characterized the three men about whom I was invited to reflect by Holy Mother Church, John, Basil and Gregory Nazianzen. They knew who they were as men because they knew who Jesus is. Do we know who we are as men? Do we know who Jesus is? The two questions - and the answers which they invite - will determine the path of our lives.
This age cries out for authentic Christian men. We use an expression to refer to men who are comfortable in their skin and content with being men. We say of such a man "He is a man's man". In the past I have reflected on the greatest example, next to Jesus Himself, of such a man. His name was Joseph. On this Feast we are offered three more, John, Basil and Gregory Nazianzen.
The Lord is still inviting Christian men to become all we can be in Jesus Christ and to spur one another on in heroic virtue. In an age so desperately in need of men of courage and Christian conviction, we are given examples out of the pages of our own Christian history. We need to follow their example by courageously, humbly and faithfully loving Jesus Christ and learning to be friends, in Him, and with one another.
Basil and Gregory Nazianzen, along with Basil's younger brother Gregory of Nyssa, are collectively referred to as the Cappadocians because they came from the same "hometown", a region in what is now Turkey. They went on to become not only holy and heroic Christian men, but three of the finest theologians of the early Church.
Gregory Nazianzen once proclaimed in his teaching on the implications of the Incarnation of Jesus Christ, "whatever was not assumed was not healed". In that extraordinarily important theological insight we understand one aspect of the danger of the denial of the sacred humanity of Jesus. Redemption would not be complete without Jesus, the New Adam, assuming the entirety of the human experience.
Part of what was assumed and healed in the Incarnation of Jesus Christ was our capacity to love - in all of the beautiful expressions of that sublime word. It was the beloved disciple John who made it all so clear in his first Letter, "God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him." (Jn. 4:16) The love of friendship reveals and participates in the Love of God.

Title says it. Who do you think Whedon and the rest of the Marvel team will add in. Not who you want (already a thread for that IIRC). Also, would like to see some ideas for what you guys think Phase 3 will bring.
My thoughts:
Avengers 2: Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, The Hulk are pretty obvious I think. I also feel like Antman will be in the film, either to introduce him or expand on his character if his solo film is released before Avengers 2. Not sure who will take spot 6. I was thinking maybe War Machine? Also with Guardians of the Galaxy I'm having a little trouble seeing how they will fit in, as I am not that familiar with them.
Phase 3: I heard Marvel is going to do Doctor Strange and Black Panther films. I could also see Thor 3, along with a solo Hulk film. Not sure what else at this point, although I think it's safe to assume Iron Man will only appear in one movie in this phase (Avengers 3).

Amazon.com Review
Milton has a good eye for a surreal or comical story, such as the colony's first encounter with Big Chief--or Weroanza Wingina, whose exotic title "quickly captured the imagination of the English colonists, and they began referring to their own queen as Weroanza Elizabeth." The Elizabethan cast is also dazzling: the flamboyant and ambitious Walter Raleigh, who provided the money behind the Roanoke ventures; the "sober" ascetic scholar Thomas Hariot, who provided the brains; and hardened adventurers, like Arthur Barlowe and Ralph Lane, who provided the muscle. The myths and stories also come thick and fast, from John Smith and Pocahontas, to the importation of the fashion of "drinking tobacco," but the problem with Big Chief Elizabeth is that it lacks a central driving story. In the end, it reads like an entertaining, but rather labored jog through early Anglo-American history, something that has been done with greater skill and originality by, for one, Charles Nicholl in his fascinating book The Creature in the Map. Those who enjoyed Nathaniel's Nutmeg will probably like Big Chief Elizabeth, but with some reservations. --Jerry Brotton, Amazon.co.uk --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.

The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.

My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

"Early on when I started making theater productions there were video components mixed in, which I used to 'spatialize' the performance, so that led me to really have a need to start working with film and video. ('Spatialization' was a device that was very immediate- a way to make a small room or the space of a theater very large, and to suggest other spaces within a small space.)"

We went to this SPA in mid Jan as a couple and found it pretty quiet on a Sunday am which was great. The sauna was rather small and could realistically fit in onlyu two couple, we found it quite cold maybe because it was so early in the day? The hot-stone massage was great though so would recommend this venue for this treatment.

I'm an atheist who regularly flirts with antitheism
I would like to do my bit to spread atheism. Atheism to me is in great part about not taking things on faith and base one's beliefs on evidence and reason. What bothers me most about religion is the fact that it requires a suspension of one's critical faculties.
On the meetup website
The indoctrination of children and bigotry.
Hi, I'm an atheist and I look forward to chatting with like-minded people.

Froch: Groves' Arrogance, Childishness Motivates Me
By Kevin Francs, courtesy of The Daily Star
Champion Carl Froch feels motivated to annihilate George Groves. The Cobra defends his IBF and WBA world super-middleweight titles against Groves at the Manchester Arena on Saturday, November 23rd.
And the challenger, 25, has been attacking Froch, claiming that the Nottingham fighter received lucky verdicts in many of his fights.
There is no love lost between the pair and Froch, 36, is using the anger he feels towards the unbeaten Groves to ensure he is in peak condition for the clash.
The champion, who has lost just two of his 33 contests, said: "I have got that extra little bit of edge mentally, with it being George Groves, because of his arrogance and childishness. He has motivated me so much with his attitude. I can't lose to this guy – I just can't lose."
Andre Ward fights Edwin Rodriguez this Saturday... ... And still there's no thread here about this fight (!?!)...Comment by MDPopescu on 11-12-2013
Carl Froch beats this guy... Or at least he'll fight his heart out -- that's what he does best... And that's what I like at Froch... (I also like Froch as a boxing commentator... The same as I like Ward...)Comment by The Gambler1981 on 11-12-2013
He was really fortunate against Dirrell, that fight wasn't even close except for the fact Dirrell did enough to win each round but he didn't put a ton of distance between him and Froch most rounds. I still think Froch…Comment by gmc_rfc_06 on 11-12-2013
[QUOTE=springfiels;13922862]If the Dirrell fight had been anywhere in America, Froch lost that without a doubt. I also accept that it is irrelevant because a fight lasts 12 rounds and Froch scored a KO, but up to that very point Taylor…Comment by Boxingscene121 on 11-12-2013
Haha talk about calling the kettle black..you dont get more arrogant than Froch. I do not understand why people like him, he is a mediocre fighter so far up his own arse it is unbelievable. In the head to head…Post a Comment - View More User Comments (12)

Do What Makes You Mad
In the library world, enthusiasm is not in short supply. I'd even go so far as to say that being excited about things is quickly becoming part of the new librarian stereotype, along with being 25, tattooed, pink-haired, and on a skateboard. Think about it—an abundance of library websites, blogs, and Twitter feeds focus on … Continue reading

Thank you for participating in the Holiday Hamper Program!
Our 2015 Holiday Hamper Program helped approximately 850 Edmonton families in need. Thank you to our sponsors, Hamper Elves, and volunteer committee who made this program a great success.
Click on the above video to learn about the Holiday Hamper Program! Big thanks to Amplomedia for creating this video.
Program Background
The annual Holiday Hamper Program has been creating positive change in our community for over 13 years. Our goal is to provide food and gifts to over 850 local families who cannot afford to do so on their own. 2014's contributions to the JCI Holiday Hamper Program led to over 3,250 Edmontonians eating over 10 tonnes of turkey and over 65 tonnes of food. Plus over 1750 children opened presents on Christmas Day. That's was 755 Edmonton families who would not have had a Christmas if it wasn't for the generosity of our supporters and volunteers last year. Our 2015 stats are coming soon and watch for the 2016 program launch in September!
How it Works
Once you sign up to participate you become one of our "Hamper Elves". As an Elf you are committing to "adopt" a family that has been identified as being in need and then compile a hamper for that family. Each hamper includes ingredients for a holiday meal as well as gifts for the children. The Saturday before Christmas, all Hamper Elves meet at Northlands Expo Centre, pick up the address of your adopted family, a frozen turkey and roasting pan (provided by JCI Edmonton fundraising) and enjoy a cup of joe or hot cocoa with fellow Elves before heading out to hand-deliver your hamper. The Holiday Hamper Program is the highlight event of the year for JCI Edmonton and this project has been recognized nationally by JCI Canada as an outstanding initiative. Creating and hand delivering a hamper to a family in need is an incredibly rewarding experience. Whether you're interested in adopting a family or simply volunteering your time on the big day, we'd love to see you involved in 2016.

Working For The Weekend: Entertainment Best BetsIt's the first weekend in October, and there are so many fun ways to celebrate fall. Several different Oktoberfests are taking place, there's a grape stomp, and you can even check out the fall fashion at the much anticipated opening of Nordstrom.
Huzzah! The Renaissance Festival Is Here!Saturday is the official start to the 45th annual Minnesota Renaissance Festival in Shakopee. The festival has grown to be the largest of its kind in the United States, with an annual attendance of 300,000.
Working For The Weekend: Entertainment Best BetsTough decisions to make in Working for the Weekend. Turkey leg versus bratwurst? Japanese lanterns or Greek dancers? There's plenty of time to do either, or both this weekend!
Working For The Weekend: Entertainment Best BetsIt's Thursday, that means the WCCO Morning Show team is looking at fun things to do this weekend. We're looking at a #Top10WxDay, and there's a little of everything for you this week, from family fun to fun for the adults. Here are a few ideas worth thinking about.
Wander Minnesota: OktoberfestIf it's nearly mid-September, then it's nearly time for Oktoberfests to start popping up. Part homage to the Germanic immigrants in Minnesota's past and part homage to autumn, it's not hard to get behind such a jolly event.
Wander Minnesota: August FestivitiesHard to believe that August is almost here, and the summer is winding down. Never let it be said that Minnesota lets summer go by without a lot of celebration. The number of events around the state reaches a peak this month. There are some biggies, like the Renaissance Festival opening Aug. 16, and, of course, the Minnesota State Fair, opening Aug. 21.
Take A Step Back In Time At The Renaissance FestivalThe middle ages meet the 21st century as the annual Renaissance Festival kicks off Saturday morning in Shakopee. For 43 years, visitors have been hanging with kings, knights, even mermaids. King Henry lords over the 22-acre grounds.
Working For The Weekend: Entertainment Best BetsIt's Thursday, and that means it's time to start planning some weekend fun. It's another weekend of festivals in Minnesota. Here are some events worth adding to your social calendar.
Crews Battle Blaze At Ren FestCrews were called to the Renaissance Festival in Shakopee to do battle with a fire that broke out just a day after high winds could've made the damage much worse.
Family Fun Guide To The Renaissance FestivalHear ye, hear ye, it's time for that hallowed annual tradition, the transition from summer to fall, from vacation to school.
Wander Minnesota: It's That Time of Year AgainThe days are a little shorter, and it's time to think about end-of-summer celebrations. Especially something full of entertainment, events, people watching and food.

Liverpool sign best manager in the country
No we need the owners to step up and compete in the transfer market.. otherwise we'll be lucky just to qualify for thw CL.. but never get a sniff at a EPL title..
Not whilst Chelsea are spending a reported £250m on players...Man City too will be spending huge too..
So whats left for LFC? In an ideal world we'd too have rich owners too who wouldn't sweat on spending huge..
We spent £110m to the likes of Chelsea & Man City thats a tiny amount..
Are we worried as fans of LFC we'll just get left behind?
The big problem is we don't have a new stadium in order to attract better players and get more money to buy these players...Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Do you always live in a world of perpetual panic?
There are plenty of players to go round. Some of them will be decent too. They cant buy all the best players. City and Chelsea's spending guarantees only one thing. A big overdraft. It is no guarantee of EPL titles, Champions League success or even qualification.
How much did Chelsea spend last year? £50m on Torres, £20m on Luiz, and Then something similar on Mata. They still didn't qualify for the CL. To their credit they won a very big pot but the spending does not buy you certainty. Better players give you a better chance and nothing more. Remember City and United were put to the sword by teams with far smaller budgets in Bilbao etc. Chelsea were nearly embarressed by Napoli.
Players do not come for the stadium. They come for money and trophies. Some may come for the club. hankfully spending wisely is still the most important thing. We've not done so well on that front recently so cross fingers we can do better from now on.

Did you ever read up on FFP like I advised you to? If you do I think you'll understand why the owners will not, and in fact should not splash the cash beyond what the club is generating.
Go find yourself a Beskitas fan and ask them if it was worth going into debt in pursuit of a league title, which btw was unsuccessful.

A global phenomenon that has wowed audiences for over 40 years, Jesus Christ Superstar is reimagined for the 21st century as an arena rock spectacular. Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webbera��s groundbreaking rock musical now features an extraordinary cast of rock, pop and R&B superstars. Jesus Christ Superstar is a timeless work set against the backdrop of an extraordinary and universally-known series of events but seen, unusually, through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. Tim Rice, who wrote the lyrics, was inspired by the Bob Dylan anthem a��With God On Our Sidea�� which features Judas in its penultimate verse and is from Dylana��s seminal 1964 album The Times They Are A-Changina��. As Tim says in his autobiography: a�oeFrom a very young age I had wondered what I might have done in the situations in which Pontius Pilate and Judas Iscariot found themselves. How were they to know Jesus would be accorded divine status by millions and that they would as a result be condemned down the ages?a��

Rodgers & Hammerstein's first collaboration remains, in many ways, their most innovative, having set the standards and established the rules of musical theatre still being followed today. Set in a Western Indian territory just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful background against which Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play out their love story. Although the road to true love never runs smooth, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love's journey is as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road. That they will succeed in making a new life together we have no doubt, and that this new life will begin in a brand-new state provides the ultimate climax to the triumphant OKLAHOMA!Music by Rodgers, Richard; Book by Oscar Hammerstein II; Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II; Original Dances by Agnes de Mille; Based on the play `Green Grow the Lilacs` by Lynn Riggs

Helen's unborn child kicked harder as the contractions occurred more frequently. The last bit of sand in the hourglass was almost through. "Hurry Fabocusa," she screamed in her head as she grasped clumps of her raven black hair to try to distract herself from the ongoing pain. She rubbed her pale bulged belly, hoping that her love would come. A tear ran down her cheek as her amber eyes bore into the door willing it to open. Another contraction began and she gripped her belly. "Fabocusa, please," she whispered. Seventeen was too early for a girl such as her to give birth, especially alone.
Med 25 examined a holographic image of the child while checking its vital signs. The image changes to show the layers of the anatomy. As she listened to the heart beating on the monitor, she thought of the times she'd spent with Fabocusa. It gave her confidence that he would arrive very soon.
When Med 25 finished the examination, it extended a couple of its limbs out and transformed them into delivery hands to use them for the delivery. Suddenly an alarm blared violently in the hospital and across the city. Everyone screamed and ran in every direction. Helen got scared, not knowing what was happening. She saw a built-in emergency page speaker on a wall to call her rescuer, but couldn't reach it.
An angry, distorted demonic voice came from all over the city, even in the hospital's voice announcement. The deity himself manifested above the city and gave his speech. All Helen heard were loud explosions coming from everywhere. The child was an inch away from being born and all she could do was cry for Fabocusa's help.
Then Seiton appeared while his energy and computer codes swirled around him as he pointed his finger towards her.
"Helen, you human whore!" Seiton snarled. Helen crouched down in fear of his menacing glare-- his knowledge of herself frightened her.
"Get away from me!" Helen cried back pathetically as she wrapped her arms around her belly trying to hide it.
"NO!" Seiton roared and another contraction struck the young girl.
He continued, "A year ago on your planet, you served as a slave being tortured, beaten, and forced to work under the command of your masters. This damn Spacer, Fabocusa saved and impregnated you. You, the Humans, Mowls, Hyger, all of the primitives were mistakes that the Mechaniods made. You, the Spacers, and the primitives just live, die, feed, starve, rot, and burn into ashes. That is what this galaxy is filled with. Nothing, but useless infested critters!"
Seiton's words overpowered her as her eyes were forced to lock into his. Helen thought she couldn't cry any more tears, her face hot and heavy, unable to see anything as fire burned through the deity's eyes.
He continued, "And you have seen my vision of a perfect universe where all of the Spacers' Children gathered around and waited until my army slaughtered them letting everyone know that I am the true god of the universe!"
"Stop it! Just stop! Don't do this to us!" Helen cried.
"You will die before that foolish husband of yours reaches you!" he snarled looking down at her bulged belly, knowing that she was pregnant with a hybrid. "As for your child, it shall be ripped out of your womb!"
As the demon towered over the cowering Helen, he snapped his fingers and disappeared. Before he disappeared, he gained control over Med 25, directing the robot to cut open and wrench her child from the young girl's body.
Following Seiton's orders, Med 25 approached the crouching Helen, and took out its laser saw and scalpels. The robot clutched her arms by force, dragging her to the operating table. She clawed desperately at its metal grip, screaming, and begging it to stop. Her scratches became fists as she was dragged like a wild animal. When it finally gotten her inside the operating room, it lifted her up and threw her on the table as if it were a professional wrestler. As she recovered from its brutality, she was then strapped to the table unable to escape and Med 25 hovered over her as a horrifying doctor.
"No! No! No! Not my baby! No!" she kept screaming as it targeted her belly for the butchering.
Just when its laser saw met the skin of her belly, Fabocusa grabbed Med 25 and threw it across the room. He shot it down with his weapon, ripped the metal straps off of Helen, and held her as tightly as he could.
"Helen, we must leave now!" Fabocusa shouted as he lifted her into his arms as a firefighter carrying a child out of a burning house.
"What are we going to do?!" Helen cried.
"We've got to get to the throne room," Fabocusa said as he put a gas mask on her. "At the back of the room, there is a portal I created which will take you to Chartorla. We need to go there now!"
When they got out of the hospital, the scenery changed dramatically. Power plants blowing up, Spacer ships crashing down from the sky, every building collapsed, and vehicles crashing at random places. The roads opened up with erupting flames, which spread like wild fires and people getting burned alive. Missiles and bombs went off; few people torn apart by the medical probes and/or gassed to death. Their world was falling apart.
Two more shuttles charged at them from opposite directions, but he made a shield that shattered those shuttles. As they made it through the gate, another wave of probes came up behind them. He touched a button on his rifle and threw it at the swarm. The rifle sets off a powerful static discharge, which wiped the wave out.
As they got inside the palace, the heat and gas had eaten the dye off of Helen. Her vision was so blurry that she had to remove her lenses. This revealed her human form. Inside throne room, a ring-shaped portal was right behind their throne. Fabocusa had her lean against a wall as he activated it. He typed the codes and a vortex appeared for them. The palace began to crumble giving them little time to keep the portal open.
"My love, you have to go through the portal without me," Fabocusa said as he got his human wife back on her feet. She felt her heart crack when he said those words.
"I want you to be with our baby!" she cried. Then another contraction began, this time the pain felt worse causing her to scream and lose her balance. He grabbed her just before she fell to the floor.
He warned her, "If I go with you, Seiton will gain control over the portal and we'll end up either in empty space, a black hole, or worse. I have to stay and keep that portal under my control until you reach Chartorla."
"You will die!" she warned him.
"Then I shall die!" he stated.
"If you are going to die, I will die with you!" she shouted denying him to end his life for her.
"No Helen, your life is more important than mine! I have to sacrifice myself to save you and our child!" he shouted. "You must hold on! Can you do that for me?"
Helen looked down into the floor as she cried. He lifted her face up, wiped off her tears, placed his hand on her bulged belly, and begged, "Please, live for our child."
Tears ran down both of their cheeks. She nodded and he gave her a quick passionate kiss goodbye. After they kissed, Fabocusa said, "I love you."
"I love you too," Helen cried as she kissed him goodbye. As soon as she went through the portal, Fabocusa kept holding onto the controls.
"Come on! You can get there!" Fabocusa kept shouting out loud. Then the control system of the portal made beeping noises telling him that she made it. He smiled and Spacer ship crashed through the roof of the palace.

"The last bit of sand in the hourglass was almost through" … while this is a lovely metaphor, I don't feel like the scene needs it. Like it's cluttering up the paragraph I guess?
"her amber eyes bore[d] into the door willing it to open" … bore feels odd to me, I believe you want bored even if it looks weird
"Seventeen was too early for a girl such as her to give birth, especially alone" … this line reminds the reader that her pregnancy is weird on multiple levels. I had forgotten that she was seventeen but you reminded me and made me think about how old Fabo is.
Wow! That scene with Seiton yelling at Helen is pretty intense. He's sort of an insane nonsensical rambler going from one subject to the next like that, but I could definitely tell he's angry and powerful.
"dragging her to the operating table" … wasn't Helen already on the operating table? I assumed she was because the Med robot was doing holographic scans and was about to perform the delivery. And later you write "When it finally gotten her inside the operating room" so she's not even inside the operating room yet? Oh, and grammatically that would be either "When it had finally gotten her inside the operating room" or "When it finally got her inside the operating room"
"a firefighter carrying a child out of a burning" … this language is making Helen a child again, which bothered me the first time you did it back when they first met. I would go with something like "a firefighter carrying a woman" and avoid the child language.
"Fabocusa said as he put a gas mask on her" … how is Fabo carrying her in both arms and also putting a gas mask on her face?
"The roads opened up with erupting flames, which spread like wild fires[. People were] getting burned alive" … otherwise this line can be read as saying something like "the flames spread like people getting burned alive" which doesn't make sense.
"the heat and gas had eaten the dye off of Helen" … ow ow ow! So she's got liquid hot dye running off her skin? Or did her sweat make it come off?
"If I go with you, Seiton will gain control over the portal" … actually it seems like Seiton can pretty much control anything anywhere even if someone is there, I don't even know why Seiton would let the portal work at all … unless he doesn't have access to it but then Fabo should be able to go through
"Tears ran down both of their cheeks. She nodded" … hmm, I think I feel like his heroic sacrifice and her acceptance of it should be a bit more difficult? I mean I know that time is an issue but … it feels like she suddenly accepted it because she had to for the plot, not because she actually was able to accept it. Maybe if she hadn't just said she would die with him I would believe that his telling her to live for their child persuaded her.
"He smiled [as a] Spacer ship crashed"
Another excellent chapter from you. Lots of action, lots of drama … Seiton was a little awkward with his rambling but trying to kill Helen with her med robot was a nice touch. I was a little surprised when Fabo announced he had that really convenient portal escape but then I remembered chapter 0 and how they sent all the Titans away with a giant convenient portal … still, it feels a little too convenient. And how has Helen not given birth yet? Willpower? The baby was just about to come out but then Fabo carried her across the city on foot?
Any questions?
Just a few things:
-I think every time you say snared you're actually meaning snarled since it is someone talking.
-A crack opened up in the middle of the road and he somersaulted over it just before the flames could touch them. He slid under a charging shuttle before it crashed into an exploding vent.
This seemed a little off physically since Fabocusa is carrying Helen. I think if you were carrying someone, you wouldn't be able to do somersaults and what not unless you're defying physics. o.O You might want to rework it to make it a bit more plausible.
-At one point you mention that Helen and Fabocusa are soul mates/long time lovers/etc. How long? Considering you mentioned that Helen is only 17 (and I'm assuming that Earth years), then really, she's too young to have been someone's lover for a long time.
-When Helen is saying good bye to Fabocusa and kisses him, you state that she's saying good bye to here her king, her healer, her friend, her god, and her lover. I really don't think all of that is needed, or if it is, then maybe it can be reworked. You have already established before this that they were lovers and married, so you don't need to repeat it here, especially since you have set up that she is crying and emotionally heart broken over leaving him.
-She felt her heart just cracked and started to cry.
I think you meant to say that she felt her heart crack and began to cry. It just sounds odd the way it is currently written.
I really like the set up and the premise of the story. I look forward to reading more.
"–ed." Also remember to slash and slash to tighten up your writing. Never write two or three words where one will do. With that in mind, I have made some grammar and spelling corrections below. A line through the word or words is what I would cut, and my additions are in brackets "[]":
Prologue: Extinction
Helen's unborn child kicks [kicked] harder as the contractions occuring at an accelerating rate [accelerated]. The last bit of sand in the hourglass was almost through. "Hurry Fabocusa," she screamed in her head as she grasped clumps of her raven black hair to try to distract herself from in the on going [ongoing] pain. She lied [lay] on the table in a labor room of the hospital[,] waiting for her husband. She was rubbing her pale, bulgeding belly[,] comforting her child. She hoped that her love will [would] come before their child was born. She did not want him to miss it. A tear ran down her cheek as her amber eyes bore into the door[,] wiling [willing it] to be opened. Another contraction began and she gripped her belly. "Fabocusa please," she whispered in pain. Seventeen was too early to give birth.
Med 25, a medical probe[,] examined a holographic image of her unborn child and checked its vital signs to see if it was going to be born healthy. The medical probe looked like a floating insect with surgical tools as limbs. Med 25 then took out [extended] a couple of its limbs and transformed them into delivery hands and will [to] use them to deliver her child.
An alarm blared violently all over the hospital and spread across the city. Everyone started screaming and running in every direction of the hospital. Helen got scared[,] not knowing what was happening. She needed Fabocusa to come for her now. She saw a built-in communication device in a wall, but she couldn't reach it from her table.
As she tried desperately to reach from the device to call Fabocusa, she heard an angry[,] dark[,] and distorted demonic voice coming from all over the city[, even] as well as in the hospital's voice announcement speakers. A demon manifested above the city and began his speech:
"Spacers! It is I, your god Seiton! You and the others before you banished me to the Tartarus Galaxy billions of years ago! I was made to rule the galaxy and you were made to be ruled! You were taught how to [cultivate] civilization and instead of worshiping me, you have resisted!
"You may think you are the most powerful warriors in the galaxy, but I am and always will remain [be] the most powerful god ever known! When the war was over, you made contact with primitive humanoids in various parts of the galaxy; Humans, Nateenos, Higers, Aquamaids, Mowls, Cobains, Kamodos, and the Tunains! You taught them how to build civilization and they worshiped you as gods! You were never made to be gods!
"There could only be one god and that is me! How dare you disrespect me! How dare you banish me! How dare you teach these races how to build civilization[s]! How dare you were [allow yourselves to be] worshiped as gods! How dare you are alive! You shall are burn to the deepest center of my hell! Once I burn you all into ashes, the children that worshiped you will die with you!"
After the Titan named Seiton gave that speech, Helen was hearing heard loud and fiery explosions coming from the city. She kept screaming and begging [for] Fabocusa to save her.
All of the sudden, Seiton appeared before her as a blue[,] 14 foot humanoid being. His scaly body was rippled with muscles, [and] horns of a goat grew from his head., He wore pale-colored pants with a leadership belt. Energy and computer codes swirling around him as he fingered [pointed a finger] towards her.
"Helen! The Spacer King's whore!" Seiton snared. Helen crouch down in fear by [from] his menacing glare-- his knowledge of Fabocusa and herself frightened her.
"Go away! Leave me alone!" Helen cried back pathetically.
"NO! You used to be [were] a slave for years after your family had been wiped out by a plague of yellow fever. You were tortured, beaten, and was [were] forced to work under the command of your masters. But this damn Spacer[,] Prince Fabocusa saved you from all that! He shouldn't have saved you! You should have stayed on Earth to rot as [like] a corpse!"
The memories of her terrible past coated as Seiton overpowered her. Helen thought she couldn't cry any more tears, her face hot and heavy, unable to see anything from her eyes.
"Stop it! Don't say anything terrible about him! He is a great man! A great king!"
"He shall be king no more! Your love will never come for you. Your blood shall spill like a river across the city all the way to the ocean!" Seiton looked down into her bulged belly[,] knowing that she was pregnant with a Human/Spacer hybrid.
"I shall have that damn child be ripped out of your womb and burn [burned] into ashes!" Seiton shouted. He snapped his finger[s] and his image had vanished. He then took control over Med 25, [now under Seiton's control,] strapped her [Helen] down into [onto] the table, and have directed it towards her belly. It hovered towards [over] her and took out its laser saws. Then it targeted her belly to get ready [and prepared] to kill her and her unborn child.
-this is the end of my example of editing.-
Just when its laser saws met the skin of her belly, Fabocusa zoomed into the room, grabbed Med 25 and threw it across the room. He took out his battle rifle from his back and shot Med 25 with a beam of yellow light. As Med 25 was destroyed, Fabocusa used his Spacer strength to rip the metal straps off of Helen and held her as tightly as he could.
Helen starred at Fabocusa, unsure as to whether it was really her husband. He wore a red cape and purple pants covering his pure snow white skin. Long hair was as pale as the peak of Mount Olympus framed his handsome face and his eyes as blue as the Mediterranean Sea, met hers as shouted their need to escape.
"Helen, My love! we must leave! Now!" Fabocusa shouted as he threw his rifle over his shoulder and lifted her into his arms like a firefighter carrying a child out of a burning house.
A swarm of possessed Spacer medical probes were rushing towards them, but his brother
[you never mentioned that Fabocusa's brother was here, and that's confusing!]
was carrying a light beam machine gun and blowing up every medical probe that was getting near them. When they got out of the hospital, every power plant was blowing up, every building was collapsing, vehicles were crashing randomly, the roads were opening up, and many missiles and bombs were going off. Many people were being gassed to death as the demon was gassing the entire planet, so Fabocusa had her wear a gas mask.
"We got to get to the throne room," Fabocusa said urgently to Helen. "At the back, there is a portal that would take you to Chartorla. You will be safe from Seiton!"
They kept looking up as many Spacer ships crashed into the planet. They had to get to the palace before it gets destroyed by a crashing ship. Flames spread faster than a wildfire and everyone was burned until they were [to]
-see how you can say this with a single word?-
ashes. The world was falling apart and there was not anything the Spacers could do to stop it.
"Come on! You can get there!" Fabocusa kept saying hoping that she would make it. Then the control system of the portal made a [singlular] beeping noises [plural]
– they should match. Either "made a beeping noise" or "made beeping noises" –
telling him that she made it to Chartorla. Fabocusa smiled as she made to the planet safe and sound from Seiton. Then a Spacer ship crashed through the roof of the palace and the last king of the Spacers was killed [died].
-try to speak in an "active" voice versus a "passive" voice. "died" is active, while "was killed" is passive.
Good luck with this and keep writing!
There are a few but nothing major. It probably wouldn't mess with your structure.
With that being said, I would recommend reviewing a grammar book for proper sentence structure, tense, and rules of grammar. This will help you fix many of the grammatical errors.
When it comes time to cut stuff as you edit, you have to be willing to slash and burn, so to speak. Getting rid of every excess descriptive word and tightening up your writing will improve it.
Here are some examples from your first paragraph, where I would make changes:
Seventeen year old Helen...
[is 'seventeen' really the FIRST word you want to start out your novel? Personally,I think the first sentence, even the first word should be powerful.]
...was lying on the table in a labor room of the hospital waiting for her husband to come and see her...
['to come and see her' is extra verbiage and not necessary as the action is implied if you just say 'waiting for her husband'.]
She had black hair like a raven, her skin was pale, and her eyes were amber color.
[adding these descriptions here breaks up the flow of the writing, and seems only to serve to tell us what she looks like, which can be done anytime.]
As she was lying in the bed,...
[a minute ago she was lying on a table, not in a bed]
...she was rubbing her bulged belly as she reached the end of her pregnancy. She and her lover have...
[you have been writing in past tense, and here you switch to present tense. Keep the tense the same throughout the paragraph by using 'had' instead of 'have']
...been waiting patiently for their child to come and that time had come. She hoped that her love will come before the child was born. She does not want him to miss it....
['does' is present tense, and should be 'did']
[This can be really tightened up, without losing any impact. Here's an example of what I mean, where I re-write your opening paragraph:
The unborn child in Helen's womb kicked as the contractions came faster. It wouldn't be long now. "Hurry, Fabocusa," she whispered between panting breaths. Rubbing her pale bulging belly, her amber eyes were locked on the door to the delivery room. If her husband didn't come soon he would miss the birth. A tear ran down the side of her face and landed in matted raven hair. Another contraction began. "Fabocusa," she whispered again, grimacing with pain. Seventeen was too young to be giving birth, especially alone.
PS: If you're wondering why I'm not reccomending you read the chapters after the first two, it's because I'm in the process of rewrites. Chapter 2 is on the way.
