On September 11th 2001, the America was hit by one of the worst tragedies imaginable; the attack of the World Trade Center. As much as the victims and their families and friends were affected by the horror, so too were the families of a small group of the nation's troops.
The very next day the government formed Task Force Dagger; a team of 12 soldiers including CIA paramilitary officers and a US Special Forces group called the US Army Green Berets Operational Detachment Alpha 595 (ODA 595).
They would be immediately deployed to Afghanistan under the leadership of Captain Mitch Nelson (played by Chris Hemsworth and inspired by the real life Mark Nutsch), who is determined to bring every single one of his comrades back home alive. To have any hope of taking down the Taliban forces that have turned their conflict on to the States, they must team up with General Abdul Rashid Dostum of the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan, who provide the overseas team with some much needed companions: horses.

Dominic Toretto has gone rogue. It seemed like the game was finally up with Brian and Mia retiring from their fast and furious lifestyles, and Dom and Letty swapping that life for marriage, but as it turns out things are not that simple. Dom has apparently sold out his family and friends to embark on another dangerous adventure. He seems to have been lured into action again by a very beautiful but extremely dangerous individual named Cipher. She has some seriously advanced technology at her disposal that she wants to use to execute her plan to take control of every motor vehicle in the city and cause some serious mass destruction. But Letty refuses to lose faith in him because she's sure there must be something more going on, though she doesn't know what yet. She re-teams with Tej Parker and Hobbs and this time they got a tank. Unfortunately for Hobbs, the only way they can take on Dom and his new girlfriend is by enlisting the help of his criminal nemesis Deckard Shaw.

Chris and Elsa are totally loved up
Hello! magazine's Spanish equivalent Hola! have reported that the 'Thor' star's model wife is pregnant with two babies this time round, which explains the exceptionally large bump she has been displaying out and about over the past few weeks. The Spanish model looked positively glowing as walked the red carpet in a floor-skimming, black Paule Ka gown at the Golden Globe Awards alongside husband Chris and made no attempt to hide her heavy pregnancy.

Magazines have been pulling these kinds of tricks for ages, but Evangeline Lilly isn't having it.
Evangeline Lilly's Women's Health magazine cover has caused a bit of a stir, as The Hobbit actress publicly objected against the way she is portrayed. Essentially, Women's Health did the thing that magazines have been doing since time immemorial and blatantly objectified Lilly's body. It can't get more overt than an arrow, pointing to the actress' behind with the words "Best Butt Ever" printed over it.
Lilly has a diverse and long-standing acting career, but "Women's Health" reduced her to the "best butt ever."
Lilly, who plays Tauriel in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (out in the US today) wasn't too happy about it either. When she stopped by Conan to promote the movie, the host asked her directly about the not-so-subtle cover.

Strawberry Mint Salad
At our local farmer's market, the strawberries have been amazing recently! We buy whole flats of them at a time, and pop them into our mouths like candy (after washing them, of course). They are so sweet and delicious, but sometimes I want to make something with them besides just eating them plain. Looking at the lettuce and mint that arrived in our CSA, I had an idea. I've probably had a salad like this before, but at a restaurant. I think this is the first time I've ever incorporated fruit into a salad at home and had it work out in such a delicious way. Topped with freshly ground salt and pepper, olive oil, and a dash of red wine vinegar (balsamic would have been too much), this Strawberry Mint Salad is amazingly refreshing on a warm spring or summer evening.
- Red Leaf Lettuce
- Fresh Mint Leaves, torn or sliced into small pieces
- Ripe Organic Strawberries, sliced
- Crumbled Goat Cheese (chevre or feta will work)
- Dash of freshly ground salt and pepper
A Note about Strawberries and Pesticides: When buying strawberries, be sure to buy organic. Please don't assume that because something is at the Farmer's Market it is automatically organic. ALWAYS look for a posted "Certified Organic" sign. You can also ask the grower/seller when you don't see a sign, as sometimes farms will be in the process of being certified, but haven't yet reached the requirements. This means that even though they are following the rules to be certified as organic, enough time has not yet passed for them to use the official "Organic" designation. Despite the phase-out of Methyl Bromide that began in 2005, there are loopholes in the law that allow it's use and the chemical is still used in Monterey and Santa Cruz counties (where close to 90% of U.S. strawberries are grown). The replacement pesticide, Methyl Iodide (sold as Midas), was supposed to be less dangerous but it was pulled from the U.S. market in March of 2012 by it's Japanese manufacturer. My advice is to stay away from the chemicals and buy organic berries!

Delighted that Vander Brothers are joining us at the Carnival and performing at 12:30 , 14:00 & 16:15
Presenting the Vander Space Wheel of Death, an 11 metre structure which rotates on a central axis with a cage at the end of each axial. A unique and highly prestigious act having made its debut at the Glastonbury Festival. The Vander Brothers enter the cages and commence to rotate the wheel at ever increasing speed, walking then running on the inside, then on the outside of the cages. A highly dangerous and spectacular act – one which will leave the crowd with their hearts in their mouths throughout, especially when the artistes walk blindfold on the outside of the wheel. The only one of its kind in the world

[trans] this boy Taebong who asked for help grabbing the hems of my pants
I don't watch TV much, so I don't know well about the program called Immortal Song
I wondered what Mapo Terminal is..,
Watching his performance after work, I was smiling before I knew.
I felt unsatisfied with some parts and camera work
but think it was a performance that showed to many people his growth potential only those close to him felt
I want to say he did better than I expected (he practiced only 3 days…ㅎㅎㅎ)
He was anxious and nervous when we talked on the phone
but you did well, kid~ ㅋㅋ
I hope you will watch and trust the potential of
Lee Taebong who always craves for a perfect performance
Look forward to next week~!
[Source: Shim Jaewon choreographer's facebook; via DC | trans by jujugal]
*Watching Taemin's performance today, I felt sorry for not being able to watch it on TV in real time. How much better will it be on a big TV? All right, I'm desiring too much (back to purification process). Shim Jaewon posted the above account on his facebook. I'm so proud of ma boy. He was ranked top in Naver's real time hot search word chart after the program.
It's taking so long to download the files of his performances today. I'll sub and post them later.

Vectorized Repeat Patterns
Budget $30-250 USD
Hello - I am starting a small business (I am a single mom one woman show) and I need a RELIABLE and DEPENDABLE graphic designer to help me bring my doodles and inspiration to life. Sometimes I will have more to work off of, and sometimes it will be an idea. This person needs to be able to take my suggestions and directions but also knows when to put their creative input into it as well. These designs will be printed, so they need to be able to be scaled, edited, and colors changed at any time. This first project will be around a 1 week timeline but afterwards, and I hope to find someone to have a long lasting relationship with, we can definitely go a lot more slower in terms of design wise. If you are experienced with ombre (true ombre), free hand vectors, geometrical designs, kid friendly prints please message me with your samples - I hope to have someone get started by Monday!

Powder Coating is one of the most durable form of kettlebell paints available on the market. It prevents corrosion, chipping and creates a great surface to grip. Powder Coat also holds chalk really well compared to matte or e-coat finishes. We offer two different lines of Powder Coat Kettlebells. You can shop in kilogram increments or American style 5 pound increments. Both bells have the same powder coating but differ in dimensions and weight increments.
Choose between Powder Coat Kettlebells in Kilogram increments or American style 5 pound increments!
The kettlebells in the kilogram based series tend to have a smooth, textured finish compared to the kettlebells in the American style series which has a grittier, textured finish. Both of these are highly reviewed, but you might choose one or the other depending on how you like the finish of the kettlebell and before swapping out between the two series.
What is the difference between our Powder Coat Kettlebells and other 'powder coat kettlebells'?
#1 Choice of our gym and professional training customers!
REVIEWS from Kettlebellkings.com & Google reviews about our Powder Coat Kettlebells:
Designed to give you the strength and cardio workout you desire for a long time to come!

Chemical Biology, Protein-Protein Interactions, Self-Assembly, Synthetic Chemistry
Our multidisciplinary group is interested in the design and synthesis of small/ medium sized molecules that can be used to modulate molecular recognition and self-assembly. Specifially we are focused on (1) developing inhibitors of protein-protein interactions involved in multiple therapeutic areas such as cancer development and progression and (2) the study of amyloidogenic peptides using reactive intermediates and state of the art biophysical techniques.Current major projects include:
- Inhibitors of a-helix mediated protein-protein interactions
- Photocrosslinking of diazirines for structural and mechanistic studies
- Protein-surface recognition and sensing using ruthenium complexes
- Synthesis, structural and functional studies of biometic architectures
Our multidisciplinary group is interested in the design and synthesis of small/ medium sized molecules that can be used to modulate molecular recognition and self-assembly.
Specific problems include:
- Development of small molecules that bind to protein surfaces and inhibit a-helix mediated protein-protein interactions such as the p53/hDM2 and Mcl-1/NOXA B interactions – important cancer targets
- Development of synthetic agents that can bind to larger less well defined protein surfaces for modulation of protein-protein interactions
- Development of molecular probes that can be used to unravel mechanistic details of biological self-assembly processes e.g. amyloid formation
- Development of small molecules with well-defined molecular recognition behaviour and their application in the development of functional biomimetic architectures and non-covalent synthesis of materials.
Protein-surface recognition
Figure 1. A schematic depicting the challenge of protein-protein interaction inhibition using small molecules
In order to effectively intervene in biological processes, it is necessary to inhibit protein-protein interactions (PPIs).1 However, it is difficult to design small molecules that cover 800-1100Å2 of a protein surface and complement the poorly defined projection functional groups on a flat or moderately convex surface (Fig. 1). The research is concerned with the development of scaffolds that posses the required size and shape to cover the large discontiguous projection of functional groups found at protein-protein interfacess. These scaffolds are amenable to rapid modular or dynamic syntheses. We develop both novel aromatic oligoamides as proteomimetics and ruthenium (II) tris-chelates as protein-surface mimetics (Fig. 2).4-5 Current cancer targets include: p53/hDM2, Bcl-xL/BID, Mcl-1/NOXA-B, androgen receptor/co-activator and growth factor/ growth factor receptor interactions. Inhibitors of these targets are being sought to decrease tumour growth, with potential clinical applications in a broad range of cancers, including breast cancer, prostate cancer and small cell lung carcinoma.
Figure 2 (a) Aromatic oligoamide proteomimetics and (b) protein surface mimetics based on ruthenium tris(bipyridine) complexes
A further feature of this program of activity is that the scaffolds we generate often have complex secondary and tertiary structures themselves, so we are also interested in sconforamtional and structural studies of these biometic architectures with a view to understanding how to design complex and functional 3D architectures.

Small Molecule Probes for Chemical Biology
Figure 3 Schematic depicting how the use of diazirine based photo-activated cross-linkers may be used to obtain structural information on a self-assembled peptide
A key problem in chemical biology is being able to understand biomolecular recognition and self-assembly processes with temporal resolution – this will allow the identification of the transient intermediates that play key roles in signalling, folding and misfolding events. In this research area we incorporate photoactivatable probes (diazirines) into self-assembling peptides and other bioactive ligands which, upon photoexcitation become covalently cross-linked to interacting species by indiscriminate insertion into proximal covalent bonds.
In tandem with non-covalent mass-spectrometry, this allows us to perform detailed structural studies. One of our long term objectives is to use this methodology to move from static to dynamic systems.

Why I HATE Telstra!
Well, it's now after 5 PM Perth time. I finally got on the Internet today, after my connection being DOWN (Thanks Telstra!!!!! Grrrrrrr!) A lot of the day was spent trying to get through to their Support (Faults) line. When I did finally get through, I was first of all told that no one answered the call, and was hung up on. (One of those lovely recorded messages). After trying to get through a number of times again, I finally made it ... again! This time I was placed in a queue. I sat in that queue for seventeen minutes and fifty seconds. No one answered. I hung up on them, because my connection suddenly came back up. Amazing. After wasted hours of trying to phone them and complain, I didn't even get that satisfaction. I assume that a lot of people had a problem today. I had spent the day dialing their fault line, only to have it ring and hang up on me most of the time (which is why I couldn't get through to them). Isn't it IRONIC that the number one telecom company in Australia never seems to be reachable! They never have enough staff on when I want to complain. They're a TELECOM, but I can't reach them on the phone or from my Internet connection, both of which they provide. Maybe it's because they are a telecom that they know I am phoning to complain. You can imagine them spotting me phoning up and deliberately diverting my call to annoy me further. This was the first time this year my Internet connection has had a major issue. (I've had a minor one where some days it takes two clicks to go to any web site. Most days it's fine.) Last year though, I had major issues. From August to December, I kept getting DNS issues. My computer had difficulty connecting to their DNS server. I used to be a Network Engineer, so I knew what the problem was. Whenever I phoned, I had to go through half an hour of following instructions from some stupid idiot on the help desk who probably didn't know what DNS was. By the time I'd phone them, I'd already work out that I can go to places on the Internet via the IP address, but not their name. I'd tried to traceroute to their DNS servers, and found they time out. I even told them the right hop order when it works, and the hop order when it didn't. This would never impress the Telstra Help Desk. They'd always have to go through the same routine. Is the routers light on? How many? Can you turn the computer off and restart ... etc etc et hoc genus omne ad infinitum enconentia buttocus time wasting. After half an hour of wasting my time, they'd finally go, "Well, there doesn't seem to be a problem there, we better escalate it to the Network Department." (Well, DUH!) Not that the Network Department were any better. Most of the time I'd never hear back from them. The issue would suddenly right itself, and that was it. Then, a week or two later, it would occur again. One of the problems I had, was they never seemed to take notes either. On more than one occasion, I'd phone for an issue, it wouldn't get resolved, so I'd phone back ... but there was nothing recorded from the previous day. So no one knew I'd had an issue. I wonder how many other peoples problems disappeared off the system (or where never put on there in the first place). Other times, I'd phone back, and ask how the issue was going. "That ones been signed off because it's been fixed", would be the reply. "Um, no! I think I would know if it had been fixed. I still have that issue." "Oh, I'd better re-open it then." Damn tootin' you better re-open it. Eventually, I told them, if the issue didn't get fixed, I'd go to Optus. I'd also told my old boss about it (who has some clout with Telstra. He used to work for them). Suddenly the issue was fixed! WOW! After four and a half months of crap, they finally came through! I'm not sure if it was something my old boss said to them (if he spoke to them at all. I never asked him to), or the threat to go to Optus, but something made them finally pull their fingers out. Maybe they do this to all their customers and after a while they get tired of tormenting the same one and switch to a new person. You can imagine them around the water cooler having a good laugh about it. Well, the major issues are gone, but there is still a part of me which says, "As soon as the contract runs out, I'm leaving!" Todays lack of service and lack of connectivity has made me pretty p***d off at them yet again. I feel doubly p***ed off, because I happen to be a shareholder in the company. If they treat the owners of the company this way, I'd hate to be one of their other customers. Quality of service is something that as a shareholder I am concerned about. If I am p***ed off and want to leave, how many other people are in the same boat? Are my shares going to slump because other people feel the same as me. It wouldn't surprise me. When they were a monopoly their service was pretty bad too. When they privatised and brought in competition, you think they might have improved it a little. Apparently not. The corporate culture of being slack seems to have continued. Another pet peeve of mine regarding Telstra, was back when I was a Network Engineer. Something would go wrong, we'd phone them, ask them to fix the issue. We'd sit there waiting for them to phone back and tell us it was Okay. We'd get a call eventually. Normally, the issue would resolve itself just before they'd phone back. The conversation would go something like this: Telstra: Hi, we checked your line, and couldn't find a problem. It must be an issue at your end. Us: Um, no, the line just came up. Telstra: What did you do? Us: We didn't do anything, I've been sitting here reading till you phoned. What did you do? Telstra: You must have done something. We only looked at the line. You've changed something at your end. Us: No, I told you. I've been sitting here reading. My issue last year had a similar call on two occasions. First when I first got it installed. They asked me to leave it on over night so their technicians could look at it. When I got up in the morning, it was working. They told me it was something I did. (Cool, next issue I have, I'll go to bed and it will magically fix itself. The fact that their technicians are looking at it has nothing to do with the issue. It all has to do with me going to bed!) The second time was when their network department actually phoned me back. Somehow magically, it fixed itself again. How dumb do they think we are? They might be able to fool the occasional granny or computer illiterate, but to try this crap on a Network Engineer is pure foolishness. Is it so bad for them to admit there was a problem, they found the cause and fixed it? Or do most of their problems come from the idiots they hire? I say that last one, because of the time our house phone stopped working. We placed the call to their faults department. They eventually came out, told us it was the wiring in our house, and demanded to look around, claiming we had illegal wiring. So we let them in, they had a look. Nope, everything in here was installed by them. Okay, so off they went. They came back, and told us it was WET CONTACTS on the wires. Told me to try the phone in ten minutes. Ten minutes later, I picked up the phone to see if it was fixed. Nope! But I did hear an incriminating conversation. Ours was not the only house effected. They had to fix a whole stack up, because someone (one of their bright technicians) had wired it wrong. Apparently, what had happened, was some new phone service was supposed to get installed. Not sure what happened exactly, but one thing led to another, and the technicians had managed to re-wire the entire neighbourhood so no ones phone worked. Um, yeah, I guess that's called "wet contacts", were the technician stuffs up, and wets himself. They phone him to find out what he did, and make contact with the wet technician! Yep, he's a wet contact! Oh well, Telstra still have my Internet connection under contract for the next year and six months (maybe a little less). So they have that amount of time to either get their act together, or to stuff up completely. If they stuff up badly again, I'll just move to another provider because of their constant breaches on contract (ie, not providing the service they are supposed to). Otherwise, we'll see if they can make thing work right. In which case, I probably will still have a mind to move elsewhere. It depends on what I end up having, and what's around. Still, I think nothing could have been worse than the service between August and December last year. (Except totally unplugging the thing!) In the meantime, I'll consider selling my shares if I change services providers too. Why keep shares in a company that disrespects it's customers?

The closed Lake Issyk-Kul as an indicator of global warming in Tien-Shan
The closed Lake Issyk-Kul as an indicator of global warming in Tien-Shan - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
Lake Issyk-Kul is the seventh deepest lake in the world situated inCentral Asiain theTien-ShanMountainsat the elevation of 1607 m above sea level. This area belongs toKyrgyzstan. From 1927 to 1997 the water level decreased by 3.4 m, and increased by 0.93 m from 1997 to 2011. The article analyzes the impact of the global warming on the Lake Issyk-Kul thermal regime and the components of its water balance: river discharge, precipitation, evaporation and lake level variations. It shows that the global warming has entailed the increase of the Lake Issyk-Kul water temperature down to the maximum depths, and river discharge increase due to the glaciers melting and the evaporation from the lake surface. The air temperature increase of 1 ℃ results in river discharge increas and lake level rise of 44 mm-year and surface evaporation increase of 88 mm-year. TheLakeIssyk-Kullevel increase after 1997, which takes place in the situation of global warming, was caused by the activation of the West air masses transport and increase of precipitation in autumn.

But for those radios I have problems:
Antena1 Memoria/fado/vida
Antena2 opera/Jazz
I try a lot of solutions: (Memoria example)
on position 86 I found https://streaming-live.rtp.pt/liveradio ... t.m3u8?DVR
I try with http but nothing.
With snooper I found a lot of streams, example this
http://streaming-live.rtp.pt/liveradio/ ... 513396.aac
plays but sound only two second and after the buffer gos to 0% and no stream
Other example: this stream works fine http://radiocast.rtp.pt/zigzag80a.mp3
I try to replace zigzag with memoria or antena1memoria, nothing
My options are finished...................
If you find a solution......................................

Put it all into a few words.
How this helps
A good slogan can help communicate a large, complex set of ideas in a simple easy to grasp package. Most very clever people think other people are also very clever, like them. So, when they explain something, they don't bother trying to make it simple. So, most people can't understand what these very clever people are talking about.
You can use slogans all over the place - as titles for blog articles, for microsites, on t-shirts, and so on.
Making a slogan is a little bit like when you were 11, and you wanted to find exactly the right name for that large kid who went around beating up other kids and stealing their lunch money. While all the other kids just ran in fear, you noticed that he got dropped off every day by his mother, while most kids took the bus or walked. So you called him "mommy's little boy", and although he beat you up for it, the name stuck, and the other kids began to laugh, and pretty soon his reign of terror was over.
OK, enough of the autobiography. A slogan has to be very short. There's no point saying, "Software patents pose a threat because they let specialists who don't really contribute to progress make outrageous yet legal claims that end-up penalising the very people trying to improve the world", when you can say, "Lawyers use software patents to beat up engineers and steal their lunch money", or better still, "Software patents kill innovation", which is an old FFII slogan.
Here are some slogans I liked, at least when I wrote them:
- We are the digital majority
- Patents eat innovation like foxes eat rabbits
- Microsoft is the enemy (this was for the NoOOXML campaign)
The very best slogans are so short they can be used as microsite names:
- <no>OOXML.org
- DigitalMajority.org
- NoSoftwarePatents.com
- EPOmustGo.org (this actually made it into the EPO's internal newsletter even before it was launched)

The elephant collapsed. A ripple of fat expanded outwards from its stomach, arcing over a bloated face and a wrinkled back. Legs flailed, tremors wracking the pulsating mass. Distended stomach oozed across the carpet, elongating in malevolent relish. The floor creaked under the immense weight, voicing it's complains to the lard above.
The eyes in the mirror blinked at me. I watched a tear on the girl's cheek roll silently downwards, burning an acid path into inflated skin. As it fell to hit her hand, I felt something cold touch my own.
I didn't move.
Wavering red-tainted optics were framed by enlarged, undulating cheeks. Hair collapsed over wide shoulders and a thick, shaking body. The large birthmark upon the girl's stomach stretched, mutated by the lurking fat inside her. All of her was grotesque.
Arms ached from taking the weight of her massive frame. Legs weeped from ripped tendons. Yet the giant clambered to her feet, swaying with the difficulty. Then she collapsed into a soft bed, imagining her own death.
Chapter 1 (Sinful)
"You are a sin."
The stares of the normals penetrated through my skin, making me feel naked. Blue, green, hazel, brown, every color fixated on one singular blemish – myself. No matter how hard I scrubbed in the bath or shower, the impurity that was me could not be washed away. Nor could my imperfections be pummeled into oblivion. All that remained were the blue and purple accusations, giving away a damaged mind.
I ducked my head, trying to hide behind a curtain of hair before realizing that my hair was up in a ponytail. I hadn't had time to wash it this morning, and now it was just another fault along with so many others. The familiar burning sensation began to claw at the back of my throat, I tried to push it away, to distract myself, but the thoughts were overwhelming. Tears were welling at the bottom of my eyes now, vast pools of revealing introspection. Now even more normals were looking my way, and whispers were starting. Words that skimmed on the edge of my hearing, not quite distinguishable. They taunted me, causing my mind to fill in the blanks with what could only be the truth.
Two teen girls passed by, dressed in the newest designer clothes. Both had dark brown eyes, which bore into my own, their red-painted lips moving in hushed murmurs. I didn't know what they were saying but I could guess.
"Oh god, what is she crying about?"
"Come on, if you looked like her, wouldn't you be crying?"
They both laughed then, and as the tears began to trickle down my flaming cheeks I could only turn away. I faced a young man now, in about his twenties, with a cell phone to his ear. I knew he was talking about me once his eyes found my face, even though I couldn't hear his words. I just knew.
"Guess what Eric? I just saw this girl in the store. Yes, alone, and no, she's a teenager. Looks like a boulder though. I mean that bulging stomach, bloated thighs and puffy face? Those shouldn't be out in public. She shouldn't be out in public. If you can even call it a she, maybe she's an it. I can't even bare to look at her, she's a sinner."
The sobs, they made my shoulders shake now. I couldn't take it. There were too many people, too many judging stares, too many screaming thoughts that ripped apart my mind. I felt like letting loose a long, primal scream. Falling to my knees and shouting at the Heavens, digging my nails into my skin and letting soothing blood flow out and onto the alabaster floor. Yet no – I had to remain in control. I couldn't be taken away, couldn't be thought of as mentally ill. I had a secret, and it couldn't be found out. I was already too gilded. My inside was all rotten.
Stepping behind a shelf of pills, I dried my tears on my sleeve, biting my tongue hard to stop from forming more. A metallic taste filled my mouth, overwhelming my senses. Away from the prying eyes with the comfort of my own blood and pain, I was ready to start rebuilding my mask. Carefully, I constructed a well-known smile onto my face. I knew which muscles to pull, I knew how to add that bounce to my step and friendly tilt to the head. But if anyone had bothered to look closely enough, they would have seen that it was all mechanical. The human was long gone by the time I walked out of the store and started to jog home.
Chapter 2 (Chromatic Darkness)
Colors danced. Hues mingled. Streaks blurred. I turned my head, trying to find the source of the muffled voice. My eyes briefly flickered closed as the world tilted. The wind trailed kisses across my arms and legs as I glided down. Then the ground greeted my folded form. I tried to force the smile back again, but my muscles were not responding.
It was happening again.
Just like in class where the room would suddenly spin as I moved, and then the tendons and muscles in my neck would cease to work for a hesitant moment, causing my chin to tilt downward and leaving my eyes to stare blankly at the floor below.
"Keira?" the voice was tinged with concern, but I didn't care, couldn't. I knew I should, but my brain was working, nothing was working. I was locked away in my own body and someone else was driving. I wanted to tell them to go away. To kick them in their stomach and tell them that's what it felt like when food was inside me. Clenched and painful – and that was only the physical side. If they even knew what went on in my mind…
"Are you ok?"
Slowly, I pried my eyes open into slits, wincing as the sun's harsh rays stuck my dilated pupils. A figure loomed above, evanescent only in my wishes. Outlines wavered then snapped into focus – the thankful stillness of my body had allowed my eyes to adjust. A soft exhale marked the beginning of my climb. I propped my elbows beneath me then, and regretfully rose from the welcoming ground.
Before me stood Fiona. No fat laced her thin frame. Instead muscles roped up her arms and legs, but as strong as she was, I wouldn't be happy with it. The muscles were too thick, they took up too much room. Imagine how delicate she would be, like a angel gliding through the world, if her muscles would just disintegrate. Yet who was I to speak? I was the lumbering giant, the enormous dragon, the monster in this scenario.
"Just resting in the sun," I mumbled quietly. I wanted to form a smile to aid my words but the darkness was just too compelling. What was the point?
"Are you sure?" A cough followed before Fiona continued. "You look a little pale."
Something splintered inside me and within a second the inside of my body was burning with flames. If only it would consume the fat.
"I'm fine, Fiona." The words were sharp, and I felt a sense of pleasure as I spoke them. It was no one's business but mine what I felt like. If I was dead I wouldn't want people to know until the last possible second. I wanted to remain control, to know something other people didn't, until my very last breath. This type of vivid emotion didn't happen too often. It was a brief flare of crimson in my mind among all the other muted greys of happiness and joy. Those words rang hollow now, for I'd come to understand that there was no such thing. Despite my clear anger though, she would not back down.
"At least get some water," she prodded, not fully convinced. Oh how I hated her at the moment. She knew what was wrong, everyone did. You could see it by one glimpse at my bulging form. I was fat.
It took a momentous effort but finally I was able to drag the corners of my mouth up in a wavering smile. A fake smile for a fake girl, painted on by rough brushstrokes of despair. Splashed on colors to create the picture of normal.
"Definitely!" I replied, still grinning, "Now that you mention it…I do feel thirsty." Before she could say another word I staggered away, legs trembling under my own monstrous weight. My mind screamed obscene thoughts, hurtling images of what I looked like. Thighs kissing, arms sagging, stomach stretching.
My lips touched the water, cooling the fiery thoughts for a brief moment – but then they bounced back, as fierce as ever. I gulped as much as I could, as if I could wash away the voices. It didn't work. I should still be running. Burning more, eating less. I'd never reach my goal if I continued like this. I was weak-willed, a low-life. My hand lifted and I felt something wet on my cheek – tears. Good. I should be crying. I deserved it. Only when I was thin could I be ever begin to be happy.
The fat girl turned. Face dripping with water, splashed on after a hot run just like the big smile. The others on the cross-country team smiled back and then passed on by, oblivious to the darkness in her eyes which grew larger.
Chapter 3 (The Arrival):
I bounced on the balls of my feet with eagerness as I walked. Long strides took me over the grey concrete – it was time. As soon as my eyes alighted on the figure in the recent distance, a genuine smile broke out. Relief, yearning, and much more.
"Judy!" I called, as I stuffed my cold hands beneath my arms. She turned, dark hair bouncing in it's ringlets and her eyes replicated the smile on her face.
"Wow, I've never seen you out of school before, this is so weird," I mentioned nonchalantly. All I could think about was the packages. All I wanted was the packages. A blossom of guilt opened in my chest. Would I have made the effort to hang out with Judy if she had not been giving me them? She had no idea how important they were…and I couldn't give the impression that they were.
"Yeah," she replied, looking as if she was going to say more, but before she could I blurted out.
"Do you have them?"
Grinning, Judy nodded. "Oh yes, right here!" she replied happily. She lifted a brown paper bag, in which two forms lay. Excitement burned through my veins, I wanted them right now. Carefully, I reached out a hand and took them from her, feeling the twine hand holder bite into my dry hand.
As we headed up the steep hill back to my house, I felt as if my head was in the clouds. They were here. They were all I could think about. Yet I had to keep talking and smiling about normal things, even though I itched to tell her all about what was really inside those closed packages. Yet she wouldn't understand. They were just for me. Not even my best friend knew and she never would.
When my old wooden house came into view I directed Judy down the side. My parents were home after all; I couldn't let them see what Judy had brought. I placed them inside the basement, trying not to seem suspicious. Then we headed up to my room and just sat, talking.
Time seemed to distort and stretch. It was fun with Judy, but my mind was elsewhere throughout it all. Thoughts of decreasing numbers and possibilities clouded what my eyes could see. When she finally left I felt as if I'd been waiting for years. It only took a matter of minutes to smuggle the brown boxes upstairs and into my rooms, where I clicked the lock shut and set them upon my dirty carpet.
My eyes soaked them in at first, traveling over the boxes edges. A brief lull, as I processed what I had believed to be impossible. Then I grabbed my itouch in one hand and quickly clicked on the green message app. The words I typed were short and to the point. Excitement dulled the flourish I liked to put in my words. They arrived. Opening now.
Turning the volume up with trembling fingers so I could hear when a reply came through, I set it back on the ground. My eyes flickered back to the packages. They were still sitting there. Waiting. It was if I just expected them to disappear. To walk away. For someone to leap out and cry out that it was all a joke, that they were going to lock me up in a mental facility, or worse, tell my parents everything. I'd been so close to ones like them before, until they'd been snatched away. That had been a couple weeks back, when I'd tried to buy them from the store…
My itouch was seeping coldness into my clenched hand, the money which hid beneath the case only another secret I kept hidden. Adults passed by me, tall and superior, only casting suspicious glances at the sweaty girl. First I entered into safeway, but standing before the automatic doors I found that they would not open for me. I took a step closer, and still they remained shut. They were probably afraid I would eat all the food without paying for it. I whispered a promise that I wouldn't as I pushed through them, eyes downcast in shame. The stores cool airconditioning brushed against my face, and I felt people's eyes turn at the newcomer. A red blush burnt its way across my cheeks, I knew that I didn't belong. Still I managed to keep my feet moving, and they dragged me over into an aisle where no one could see.

Bug Boxes
"Small Birminghams", sometimes called "Bug Boxes". Small 4 wheeled carriages built by Brown, Marshall & Co of Birmingham, which are the earliest passenger carrying vehicles on the Festiniog Railway, dating from 1864-7. In old Company times, they were known as "Small Birminghams" to distinguish them from the bogie carriages built by the same company. The term "Bug Box" is thought to have been given to them c.1955 by an LNER driver, Bill Hoole as it was a term used for ancient four and six wheelers on the North Eastern Railway. The main square internal frames are thought to be original as well as the door handles. They share with the original Talyllyn carriages (of 1865-66) the distinction of being the oldest railway carriages still in regular use in the world (unless you know differently!). They are:-
- Carriage 1 Third Class Open Observation Saloon "The Zoo Car" - a replica incorporating some original pieces formerly on Carriage 2.
- Carriage 2 First Class
- Carriage 3 Third Class
- Carriage 4 Third Class
- Carriage 5 Third Class
- Carriage 6 Third Class (Scrapped 1931)
- Carriage 11 First Class Open "The Flying Bench". Later with overall leather awning and aprons to pull over passengers' knees in wet or cold weather. In late c19 enclosed as a "Porthole Bugbox" but since reopening restored to original state, now complete with awning and aprons.
- Carriage 12 Third Class Open Observation Saloon "Porthole Bugbox" - a replica incorporating some original pieces formerly on Carriage 11.
- Carriage 13 Third Class Open (Scrapped 1950s)
All surviving carriages are serviceable in 2015.
There is controversy over the numbering of the bench. The current Rule Book has it numbered as 11 . However it has previously been allocated both the numbers 7 and 12 (until 12 was reallocated to the replica porthole coach), and the allocated number has not necessarily matched that painted on the side.

I spent a bunch of time on the practice range yesterday and the day before and the impact has been immediate. I had a couple of twitch headshots at lunchtime overwatch that were just nuts. Intent was there, sure, but the mechanics? Pure reflex. Twitch, headshot. Good night, Hanzo. Twitch, headshot. Good night, McCree. Go to sleep.
Plus a few more deliberately aimed headshots. I had some good numbers today. Their McCree was the only one who could get anywhere near me. But more, I'm picking up the always-be-moving part. Not perfectly, of course. But I was thinking of her as best played more still than she should be, and that's wrong. Move. Always.
Also won another couple of duels with enemy Widowmakers, and one - ugh, she was terrible. I'll have this reaction when I'm playing enemy Tracer, when they're terrible - "oh, sister, you shame us all" - and I had that today, as Widow, about an enemy Widow. And I was right. I was a factor. She wasn't. We won, and they barely even ever slowed us down.
Also also, double-kill with a venom mine. That was both a first, and hilarious. "Here, have some deadly neurotoxin I got from my best friend online. Ooh, did that sting? Thanks, I will tell her."
I really do kind of think Widowmaker and GlaDOS would be evil online friends. You know, what with the common interests in deadly neurotoxin and killing. I should learn how to say "the cake is a lie" in French. Google translate says "le gateau est un mensonge." I suspect if it's gonna get anything right, it's that.
Someone should draw them getting together at a café for cake and neurotoxin. Tell me that wouldn't be great. :D
Huh, I guess it's official. I need a Widowmaker icon.

If we can survive the seeming pending global economic collapse, the nutjob craziness of every damn religion on the planet AND the destruction of the environment as we know and love it, maybe we can finally do this...
Yeah! Space elevators! My favorite SF technological gimmick idea may finally become reality. Seems some really smart guy types have developed the means to make the cable that is needed to stretch from Earth to space to make an elevator system to orbit possible. They are using nanotubes to do this, combining them in a new way, that will make a material strong enough and stretch enough to make this dream reality.
What's so cool about this, you ask? Because it means space travel is no longer expensive. Instead of hundreds of millions of dollars to boost one rocket or shuttle into the sky, just throw that satellite in a box and pop it into the next cargo pod going up. People and materials will be constantly flowing out into space while space manufactured goods can be cheaply and easily brought down. This is the beginning of humankind's next real challenge - colonizing the Solar System. The resources we need are all out there - we just need a cheap way to leave Earth's gravity well and go get them.
If this doesn't make you crap your pants with excitement, you are already dead inside.

When we launched Keep Me Posted last year, it was a UK-only campaign. Now it seems we raised the flag for European consumers to follow too, some of whom, ironically, seem to be on course for getting the choice we are fighting for before we do here.
Last week I met up with some wonderful ladies from across Europe, who had asked to observe at our steering group to see how we run things. They want to start their own version of Keep Me Posted in places like Belgium and Germany where people are having similar issues to those we have highlighted – that not everyone can or wants to manage their financial affairs online, and they should have that choice to keep paper bills and statements without paying for them if that's how best they run their affairs.
And this week we've heard that in France, organisations have been reminded by Minister Benoit Hamon that the consumer has a right to ask for a paper bill free of charge. Though as far as we can tell, that means the customer has to make the effort to ask, at least they can get one at no cost to them! Imagine if we had something similar here, where everyone currently paying something like £1.50 for a single piece of paper could call and demand it for no charge… I think the phones to the call centres of banks, energy companies and communications businesses would be red hot.
Some compatriots from Spain, who we briefed very early on about Keep Me Posted have set up their own campaign and are getting things moving. We're told that a new legislation to protect consumer communication choice is currently going through the Spanish parliament. And outside Europe, people are discussing something similar in New Zealand.
The campaign has really touched a nerve, and while we're beavering away in the UK, with our Early Day Motion, our wonderful supporters and political debates, it's good to know we're not alone. Now, anyone know the Spanish for Keep Me Posted?

Our ten-year study of nondiabetic animals and humans shows that the glucagon response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia (IIH) is autonomically mediated. Since this specific glucagon response is lost early in type 1 diabetes, an early autonomic defect may be responsible. Our recent preliminary data demonstrate an early, marked and selective damage to islet sympathetic nerve terminals in BB diabetic rats. Therefore, our first specific aim is to relate the time course and magnitude of this nerve terminal damage to impaired glucagon responses in BB diabetic rats. Islet sympathetic nerve terminals will be visualized by dual immunohistochemistry for vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) and glucagon. Our second specific aim is to prevent the loss of the glucagon response to IIH by preventing nerve terminal damage using nerve growth factor (NOF) to treat BB rats before the onset of their diabetes. Our third specific aim is to reproduce the loss of the glucagon response to IIH in diabetes resistant BB rats by a combination of nerve terminal damage induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) and islet B-cell loss induced by streptozotocin(STZ). Since nerve terminal damage impairs the responsiveness of neuronal cell bodies to activation, our fourth specific aim is to determine the magnitude of this impaired responsiveness in BB diabetic rats and its contribution to the loss of the glucagon response to IIH. The response of these neurons will be assessed by counting those that express nuclear Fos. Thus, celiac ganglia (CG) Fos expression will be assessed in response to clamped IIH before and during the first week of BB diabetes and in diabetic rats pretreated with either systemic NGF or ganglionic NGF induced by viral transfection. The final specific aim is to determine the contributions of nerve terminal damage, islet B-cell loss and loss of ganglionic NGF to this impaired responsiveness. Thus, diabetes resistant BB rats will receive a combination of 6-OHDA and STZ and the CG Fos responses to clamped IIH will be measured. Finally, ganglionic levels of NGF will be measured by ELISA in this and previous experiments to directly relate them to the impaired responsiveness. Together these experiments will determine the timing, magnitude and location (nerve terminals or cell bodies) of islet sympathetic dysfunction in BB diabetic rats and its contribution to the loss of the glucagon response to IIH.

It happens to every company sooner or later: Wall Street sets a mark for quarterly earnings, and the company misses that goal. Sometimes, an earnings stumble is a signal to sell, but digging in the dirt is also a good way to find turnaround candidates while they're getting beaten down. Today, we'll see a management team asleep on the couch, a networker that can't quite connect, and a wannabe emperor streaking down the street. This should be interesting.
Our first straggler today is furniture peddler and Motley Fool Income Investor selection La-Z-Boy
Sales were a bit lazy, too. Last year, La-Z-Boy reported $566 million of gross revenue, and Wall Street wanted to see at least $546 million or so, but the company could ultimately scrape together only $508 million.
Peeking inside the numbers reveals an interesting segment breakdown. The retail operations saw faster sales but a bigger operating loss year over year, while the case-goods department -- chairs, tables, and other pieces not upholstered -- increased its operating profits on lower sales. The company's bread-and-butter upholstered goods hit the downer jackpot with lower sales and operating profits.
It's a company in a state of flux, with a just-retired CFO and soon-to-retire chairman of the board. For this quarter's shortcomings, the remaining management team blames everything from fuel costs to macroeconomics, including supply shortages dating back to last year's hurricane season. I'd be wary of dropping any cash on a company with so many excuses and such an uncertain future, no matter how comfy its recliners are.
Nortel Networks
The company keeps spending around $50 million per quarter on fixing old accounting problems, and even the CFO doesn't appear too excited about his company's future prospects, pointing to "high-single-digit growth" and calling that "strong revenue momentum." Try that in a Cisco
Zafirovski seems to have his work cut out for him, and some investors are losing confidence in his ability to turn this ship around. However, the man claims to operate along a long-term plan, and I can certainly appreciate management that dares to plan for the long haul at the expense of short-term results. Give Nortel another few quarters to right the badly battered ship that the current management inherited, and only then give the company another look, I'd say.
Finally, I'm putting a mirror up to clothier Jos. A. Bank
The stock fell by 29% when earnings were released last week, thanks to lower earnings than expected and negative year-over-year earnings growth. GAAP earnings per share of $0.32 didn't impress the analyst community, where $0.46 would have gone over much better. Sales for the quarter increased by nearly 18% over last year's comparable period, to $114 million, but the margins suffered from what appears to be misjudgment of customer demand.
My Foolish colleague Nathan Parmelee thinks there's something fishy going on with inventory management, and I'm inclined to agree. The company's clothes may be classy, but the quality of operations here looks less stylish.
Some of these underperformers are victims of larger circumstances, while others might have only themselves to blame. It's up to you to decide which down-on-their-luck companies should be able to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and which really are stuck in the mud. Come back next Monday, and we'll take a look at another batch of mishaps and disappointments. It'll be fun and educational. Promise.
Further Foolish reading:
- Take cheap when you can get it.
- Is La-Z-Boy an opportunity now?
- How about Jos. A. Banks?
- And will Nortel ever be back in style?

Fool contributor Anders Bylund owns no stock in the companies discussed this week. If he stopped writing about Cisco all the time, he might buy some shares there, but the Foolish disclosure po licy won't let him do both at the same time.
