2015 Leaf arrived a few hours ago.
I plugged it into the socket for trickle charge, my wife is concerned that the charger is very hot (but I can hold it in my hand), also the Leaf owners manual says not to use it on a regular basis. I was hoping to just plug it in when not in use including overnight.
Any knowledge is appreciated.

To mark Beyonce's 36th birthday on Sept. 4, the singer's friends and family celebrated the only way they knew how — by dressing up in one of her most iconic outfits.
Donning a black off-the-should top, a round-rimmed hat and silver statement jewelry, 18 of Queen Bey's loved ones embodied one of her most recognizable (and badass!) looks from her "Formation" video.
Naturally, Beyonce's eldest daughter, Blue Ivy, her mother, Tina Knowles Lawson, and Jay Z's mother, Gloria Carter, participated in the photo series.
Bey's former Destiny's Child bandmates, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, also got in on the action and channelled the pop star, as well as famous friends Serena Williams and former First Lady Michelle Obama.
But the best part of all was that the "Formation" tribute was done in an effort to raise funds for Hurricane Harvey relief. Since the natural disaster hit Houston over a week ago, its heavy rains has caused widespread flooding, causing more than one million people to evacuate their homes, ABC News reports.
The tribute to Bey on her birthday was shared on the singer's website, alongside a link to donate to Houston relief efforts.
This isn't surprising considering Beyonce, who is a Houston native, previously announced the launch of BeyGood Houston, which is her initiative to help those who were affected by Hurricane Harvey.
In a statement to the Houston Chronicle, Beyonce said: "My heart goes out to my hometown, Houston, and I remain in constant prayer for those affected and for the rescuers who have been so brave and determined to do so much to help. I am working closely with my team at BeyGOOD as well as my pastor (Rudy Rasmus at St. John's in downtown Houston) to implement a plan to help as many as we can."
Besides Beyonce, a number of other celebrities have also pledged to help aid relief efforts, including Drake and Lin-Manuel Miranda. Queen Bey will also be participating in a telethon on Sept. 12 to help raise more funds.
Bey's philanthropic work is just another reason her fans love her so. On Twitter, many have praised the singer's good deeds:
Bravo Beyonce, indeed!

The Employment Development Department (EDD) will be issuing debit cards in place of unemployment checks, beginning July 8th. The new EDD Debit Cards will offer a faster, more convenient, and more secure way for individuals to receive their benefits. The EDD has also created an informative YouTube video (http://www.youtube.com/user/CaliforniaEDD) explaining features of the card, such as how to use it and avoid fees, as well providing important information customers need to know about their transition to the card. The card will be good for three years and may be used like any other Visa card to withdraw cash at an ATM and make purchases anywhere Visa is accepted. There is also a direct deposit transfer option so customers can choose to have some or all of their benefits transferred from their card account to their own personal bank account.
The new EDD debit card is one of the largest prepaid card programs in the nation, covering both the Unemployment Insurance (UI) program as well as the State Disability Insurance (SDI) program. As there are 1.2 million unemployed Californians who receive unemployment benefits, the debit cards will be an important cost-saving method of distributing billions of dollars. The roll-out is expected to take a few months to complete as the EDD issues about 10,000 cards a day.

Recent news in regards to the naming of the upcoming Star Wars movie as well as a recent fling with the X-Wing miniatures game have me with galaxies far, far away on the mind. The Star Wars universe is full of many interesting and diverse alien creatures, so I thought it would be only right for such a beast to grace the annals of this blog. With that said, let's jump into hyperspace as we search for out latest monster: the rathtar!
This massive creature sports a gigantic maw. Numerous tentacles swing wildly from its body.
Rathtar CR 6
N Large aberration
Init +1; Senses darkvision 60 ft., scent; Perception +20

Feats Great Fortitude, Greater Overrun, Improved Overrun, Power Attack, Skill Focus (Perception)

Environment any
Organization solitary, pair, or pack (3–12)
Treasure none
Lashing Tentacles (Ex) A rathtar's tentacles constantly flail and lash out in all directions. A creature that enters the area or begins its turn within it must succeed a DC 19 Reflex save or take 1d8 points of bludgeoning and slashing damage. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Rathtar are strange creatures of dubious origin. Their hunger knows no bounds and they chase potential prey for hours in hopes of catching a meal. Unfortunately, their minimal intelligence usually means that rathtar are easily tricked or find themselves in perilous situations. Rathtar generally move in large packs that easily swarm smaller creatures, ending with the creature's demise as it torn between multiple rathtar. Rather are able to move quickly by tucking in the majority of their tentacles and rolling forward, pushed along by their larger primary tentacles. Tales of rolling waves rathar taking entire regions or overwhelming small villages are not uncommon. Rathtar are typically 9 feet tall with tentacles up to 20 feet in length and weigh upwards of 450 pounds.
In Your Game
A New Home
The local wildlife is out of control. Hunting drove the apex predator out of the area and the ecosystem flourished. Things may become unsustainable and the PCs must locate a new apex predator. Rathtar would do the job, but capturing the beasts is a monstrous task.
Gift of the Rathtar
After defeating a rathtar, the PCs find something interesting in its mouth. A tiny coffer is stuck between the rathtar's teeth. Inside is a note and a small map. The treasure map left behind is that of an unfortunate explorer and the PCs may be the ones to finally find the treasure.
Rollin' Rathtar
A herd of rathtar travel the countryside, destroying everything in their path. Their course will soon lead to the destruction of a nearby village. It's up to the PC to redirect the rathtar or put an end to their destruction by any means necessary.
Monstrous Origins
There's not much too this week's monster. I just wanted to see the rathtar! The rathtar are the curious, not-so-little creatures that close out the first act of The Force Awakens. They show up, do their thing, and aren't seen again. However, I though it would be interesting to consider what other things rathtar are capable of doing. In regards to their abilities, they are simple creatures which makes them kind of charming. They are big, beefy monsters meant to deal and take some punishment and not much more. Their design is quite reminiscent of existing monsters and in another life, rathtar and otyughs would most likely be switched. The fact that they are so similar to existing creatures made them a perfect fit into the world of Pathfinder.
That's it for this week! Please let me know if you are interested in seeing monsters from other existing fantasy and sci-fi franchises. If rathtar make it in to your campaign, or you have any request for a future Monstrous Physique, please drop me a line at email@example.com.

The following book review was written by Bobbi King:
The Family Tree Historical Newspapers Guide
by James M. Beidler. Published by Family Tree Books, Cincinnati, OH. 2018. 239 pages.
This new Historical Newspapers Guide covers research in traditional newspapers and online newspaper sources.
Part One includes chapters on the history of newspapers, and information you'd expect to find:
- The Historical Role of Newspapers
- Records in Newspapers
- Vital Records and Events in Newspapers
- Obituaries and Other Death Notices
- Understanding Newspaper Media
Part Two includes chapters on online research, with two chapters devoted to the predominant sites. Each chapter has detailed advice for searching, interpreting, and the differences among the sites:
- Free Newspaper Websites
- Newspapers.com
- GenealogyBank
- Other Subscription Websites
- Seeking Out Other Newspapers
Part Three includes chapters on specialty newspapers, international sources, and case studies:
- Ethnic-Focused Newspapers
- International Newspapers
- Preserving, Collecting, and Citing Newspapers
- Putting It All Together
I decided to put Newspapers Guide to the test. I'm writing a story about an obscure family event that took place in 1910 in Nebraska. Most of the information I'm using is based on 1910 newspaper articles. I came across twelve articles, and I thought this was about as good as it would get.
Well, was I in for a surprise.
The Newspapers Guide helped me find well over fifty more articles (I've not yet reviewed all the hits of nearly two hundred). I give total credit to the instructions in the Search criteria. Specific, step-by-step coaching on how to do simple and advance searches for the websites was the key to refinement of my search technique and increased efficiency in coming up with hits that are relevant to my topic and more productive for my time.
Mr. Beidler has included worksheets that are downloadable from the Family Tree website. I printed out and used some of these, which enhanced my organizational situation. Using these worksheets, I can, anytime, make quick work of finding the saved newspaper articles in my Download file, and I can quickly and properly write my citations with the info on my worksheets. The worksheets come up as Adobe files with fillable form fields, meaning you can type your information into the fields right there on your computer, not needing to print out the worksheets, and then save them to your device.
In Part Two, the differences among the websites are considered as well as specific details on how to gain the most advantage from each.
The Family Tree production team made some weird layout choices for the book. The pages are grey, so the black print, which is already small in size, offers less contrast on the page (annoying). Some of the sidebar text boxes are tilted (very annoying). Dark ruled lines run just above and below the titles, headings, and subheadings, separating the headings from their body texts (really annoying). These are not high level concerns, but they do constrain ease of reading.
Mr. Beidler will introduce The Family Tree Historical Newspapers Guide this week at RootsTech. He will be at Booth 1843 in the Exhibitors' Hall, where he'll discuss and sign his books.
Newspapers were the social medium of their time. You can read about who got arrested, whose letters are sitting unclaimed at the post office, who got married, who came to town for dinner, and who left town.
You can spend just as much time reading through newspapers as you can scrolling through Facebook, but the advertisements are much more interesting.
The Family Tree Historical Newspapers Guide by James Beidler is available from the publisher, Family Tree Books, at http://bit.ly/2HRZjUO as well as from Amazon (both in paperback and Kindle formats) at http://amzn.to/2oBECnc.

By Zhang Liping, Chen Ning, Wang Yang & Tian Hui, Research Institute of Finance, DRC
Research Report, No. 127, 2017 (Total 5202), 2017-09-29
Abstract: The three countries of Greece, Romania and Serbia have made efforts to strengthen their inter-connectivity, which highly synergizes with the Belt and Road Initiative. The Research Institute of Finance of the Development Research Center of the State Council (DRC) sent a research group to the three countries in mid-May 2017. The research group held ten meetings with related government departments, financial institutes, think tanks and overseas Chinese enterprises and participated in round table meetings with Romania's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Public Finance and Ministry of Economy as well as relevant think tanks. The group members made field surveys on projects relating to the Belt and Road Initiative respectively in Piraeus Port Authority of China Ocean Shipping (Group) Company (COSCO), Huawei's branch company in Greece, Zhongxing Telecommunication Equipment Corporation (ZTE)'s branch in Romania, and ironworks of Hebei Iron and Steel Group in Serbia. The research findings show that the attitude of the three countries towards participating in the Belt and Road Initiative is positive and there is broad space for mutual cooperation between China and the three countries in jointly advancing the Initiative. China needs to enhance the exchanges and cooperation with them at various levels, provide more information about the Initiative, improve the local business environment and promote consensus with the relevant stakeholders.
Key words: the Belt and Road Initiative, Greece, Romania, Serbia

Natalie has totally transformed my flat into what feels like a brand new home, having breathed new life and beauty into it. She has delivered far beyond my expectations. My flat is now the standard of a show home whilst still remaining homely and personal to me. Using her vision and design flair, Natalie has made sure every detail is absolutely perfect, right down to the finishing touches. Natalie is super organised and managed every part of the process for me, from managing the budget, dealing with supplies and ordering everything- I didn't have to worry about anything. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Natalie's interior design services to others, she is fantastic at what she does and I couldn't have done this without her. Words can't even begin to describe how much I love what she has done and what it means to me. I never want to leave it!
Natalie was brilliant, with a few simple alterations to our furniture placement and some new storage options, she completely transformed our family room. As a result, we use our dining table all the time, and not just as a place to dump our stuff, and our daughter has a dedicated place to play. It has meant that our daughter is centre stage in the day, but in the evenings, the toys are neatly stored away and we now have a cosy and inviting adult room to relax in.
Natalie completely captured the atmosphere I wanted to create in my living room. She managed to make a really dark room light and airy with a modern feel. Guests always comment on how relaxed they feel when the come through the door, like they are on holiday. I love the space and it was a pleasure to work with Natalie Sanders Interiors.
When redesigning our north facing living room we asked Natalie for help. It has 2 large windows and a small side window so we needed a lot of curtains on our fairly limited budget. We also wanted to buy modern sofas that would blend in with older furniture. Natalie considered all our needs, and promptly provided us with a very comprehensive floor plan and moodboards. She used up to date colours, textures and pattern which complement our existing furniture perfectly. Our once cold and little used space has become a cosy, welcoming room with plenty of room for all the family. We are delighted!

Describing the case as a failure of the criminal justice system, a Los Angeles County judge on Friday threw out the murder conviction of a woman who has spent more than 17 years behind bars for a crime that he said she did not commit.
The judge said the only evidence against Susan Mellen during her 1998 trial was the testimony of "a habitual liar" who claimed that Mellen had confessed her involvement in the killing of a former boyfriend.
"I believe that not only is Ms. Mellen not guilty, I believe, based on what I've read, she's innocent, and for that reason, I believe the criminal justice system failed," said Superior Court Judge Mark S. Arnold.
Arnold said Mellen had received "subpar representation" from her defense attorney, who he said should have conducted a thorough investigation of the witness' credibility. Had the attorney done so, jurors would not have found Mellen guilty, said Arnold, who ordered that Mellen be released.
"Thank you your honor, thank you so much," Mellen said in a small voice.
"Good luck," the judge told her.
More than three dozen friends and relatives of Mellen's clapped and cheered. One held balloons that said "Welcome home!"
Among them was Sandra Barbano, a retired political aide who has spent the last eight years visiting her at a Chowchilla prison. The two were matched up through an outside program that pairs prisoners with community members. There was an immediate connection.
"What an experience it has been," said Barbano, who drove down from her Fresno home for the hearing. "I've gotten so much more than I could give to her — her upbeat attitude and inspiration. Not one time did I ever hear a bitter word from her. I've never met anyone like Susan Mellen."
The 71-year-old wrote Mellen weekly letters and visited her each month.
"She knows in her heart that she's innocent," Barbano said. "I feel at peace to know that freedom has come to her life."
Mellen's case was resurrected last year by a lawyer who runs a small innocence project in Torrance. The attorney, Deirdre O'Connor, learned that the trial's star witness was a known liar with a checkered past.
"I'm so overwhelmed,"; O'Connor said before Friday's court hearing. "I'm looking forward to watching Susan and her kids reconnect. It's really very emotional because I've grown attached to each one of them, and I'm just overjoyed that they're going to be reunited as a family."
O'Connor, who runs Innocence Matters, focused much of her investigation on the trial's main witness, June Patti. Police at the time viewed Patti as credible because she described details of the July 1997 killing that had not been made public. After less than five hours, the jury returned a guilty verdict.
But Patti had a reputation for dishonesty that was outlined in a Los Angeles Times story last week. Jurors in Mellen's case never learned that nearly five years before the trial, Patti had been deemed an "unreliable informant" by a Torrance Police Department narcotics investigator. He wrote in a report that Patti had provided a series of tips, virtually none of which had any truth to them.
Patti's own sister, a Torrance police officer, described her as a pathological liar. She recently informed the district attorney's office that she told the same thing in 1997 to the lead detective handling the murder case. Los Angeles Police Det. Marcella Winn "asked me about my sister and I said, 'My sister is probably the biggest liar I've ever met in my life and if I don't see something happening directly that she's involved in, then I don't believe anything she has to say,'" she said in a recorded interview with a prosecutor and two investigators.
Patti relocated to northwest Washington state where she was involved in more than 2,000 police calls or cases in the county before her 2006 death. Patti as a credible witness was a "laughable" idea, the director of the Skagit County public defender's office recently told The Times.
O'Connor also tracked down one of three alleged Lawndale 13 gang members whom police reports initially identified as suspects in the case. Santo Alvarez passed a polygraph exam this year in which he admitted he was present during the 1997 killing but Mellen was not, according to court records submitted by O'Connor.
Spurred by O'Connor's investigation, the district attorney's office conducted its own review.

Article Title: Job Search Success: It's In Your Head
Author Byline: Kevin Donlin
Author Website: http://fafea0qa42ea7wdakjjj3vcr9f.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=BLG121809
If you're looking for a job, success may as close as your kitchen cabinet … or between your ears.
That's according to best-selling author of "Swim With The Sharks" and Twin Cities business leader, Harvey Mackay (www.HarveyMackay.com).
In his latest book, "Use Your Head to Get Your Foot in the Door: Job Search Secrets No One Else Will Tell You," Mackay offers practical employment tips from his 45+ years of experience as an executive.
Here are Mackay's answers to common job-search questions. Read them and reap …
Question: How can people handle rejection in a job search, whether it's anger after a layoff or disappointment after being turned down for a position?
"You have to know throughout your life that rejection is going to come," says Mackay. "I have never yet met a successful person who hasn't had to overcome either a little or a lot of adversity in his or her life."
"When the No's come, when the downsizing, restructuring, mergers, and acquisitions hit, and you have lost your job — or you might even have been terminated — you must learn something from it. That's a point of paramount importance," he says.
Action Step: For every rejection you experience in searching for work, extract at least one lesson. Example: If you lost out in the interview to another candidate, analyze your performance. What would you do or say differently in the next interview?
When it comes to rejection, Mackay also urges you not to take it personally.
"My best friend is Lou Holtz. You may recall he was fired as football coach at Arkansas. As soon as he got fired, he comes home to his wife Beth and screams that he's going to sue the school. She talks him out of it, and he goes back the next day, accepts the firing, and learns something from it."
"He wouldn't have had the Notre Dame job if Arkansas hadn't fired him," says Mackay. "It changed his whole life. That's how you beat rejection."
Action Step: While you may never coach at Notre Dame, you will face adversity. Why not use it as a spur to greater effort? What looks like disaster may be a lesson in disguise.
A setback can free you up to pursue the next opportunity more intelligently if, instead of taking defeat personally, you take it apart and learn something from it.
Question: According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, it now takes 29.7 weeks to find a job, on average. That's more than 7 months. How do you stay motivated during a long search for work?
"When you get up in the morning, you have two choices: You can be an optimist or you can be a pessimist. You can go around with negative people or you can go around with positive people," says Mackay.
Given the choice, pick positive people. "If you're getting all those No's and all that rejection, you have to take a break sometime," and turn to your closest friends, according to Mackay. He refers to this group as a "kitchen cabinet."
"The kitchen cabinet is phenomenal. It's probably the greatest asset you could have in a lifetime," says Mackay. "If you have three or four close friends, you can bounce things off them. Then, you have to be part of someone else's kitchen cabinet. I can tell you, it works miracles for rejection."
Action Step: Talk to your kitchen cabinet and update them on your job search. Ask for their advice on your most-vexing problems. Don't have a coterie of friends to count on? Start building that group today. Meanwhile, be sure to offer your help to others in need.
Question: Any parting job-search advice?
"One critical sentence in the book is this: Never say 'No' for the other person," says Mackay. "What do I mean by that? You go all your life and say, 'I can't get that interview. I can't get that job.' Well, I say, 'Let me say no.' Ask! It's very simple."
Action Step: Never put a ceiling on yourself. Stop saying "No" in your mind before ever speaking to a hiring manager at your dream employer, for example, or calling and asking an influential person to meet for coffee.
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take, according to Wayne Gretsky. And you'll be ignored by 100% of the employers you don't talk to, according to Harvey Mackay.
In either case, the only thing you'll regret tomorrow is the action you don't take today.

One cold winter evening in the end of January 2007, my life took a most unexpected turn. Not that I knew it was a turn by then, of course. Some of your milestones in life come with the big drum rolls – like the birth of your children or as disasters like earthquakes and terror attacks or whatever. But some are so modest and apparently unsignificant at the moment that you don't know until much later what impact they made on you.
This event was "nothing", for sure. I just checked a music video out, and it was three minutes. Actually it was just a casual glance at the final acts in Swedish Melodifestivalen, the qualification round to Eurovision Song Contest. Americans have their Super Bowl, Sweden has Melodifestivalen. (Let's say it is also ridiculed quite a lot, from rather good reasons as well, but nevertheless, it is a big TV event.) Most songs were the usual rubbish to me, with the exception of the last one, performed by well-known glam rock band The Ark. And it was something about them that got me totally hooked. Still, I cannot fully tell why, I just know that I watched and then, boom. I had to watch it some 10 times more.
The Ark were a well established rock band in Sweden but I had missed them. In fact, I had missed most of what happened in Swedish music life because I 1) had other things on my mind by then and 2) found most of it highly uninteresting, dull and mainstream anyway. So, perhaps I should have listened better, I don't know.
But The Ark were different. They were the real deal, offered happy glam rock in the days when Oasis ruled with their stone faces and black clothes. They were very nice and down-to-earth guys without diva attitudes, and their music was terrific, the performance amazingly professional, the lyrics excellent – good poetry with intelligence and depth. They fetched their inspiration from my own old rock heroes like Queen, Pink Floyd and David Bowie. And lead singer/composer Ola Salo had a certain star quality an charisma that I had not seen since the days of Freddie Mercury.
Unlike Freddie Mercury he wasn't dead, nor was he on the other side of the planet either. I got so curious about the music that I wanted to ask Ola about it. Actually I wanted it so much that I did it – I asked for an interview. Only problem was that The Ark were just a little bit too popular. Everybody wanted to meet them and talk to them, it was not just like giving them a call and say "hey, wanna talk for a minute?" Oh no, it was merely like trying to force your way into Fort Knox. All kind of communication had to be through the publicist or some other "official channel". Everyone assumed you were yet another crazy (overaged) teen fan wanting to date the pretty idols. I found the whole thing both disgusting and quite degrading. To idolize people and devote to worshipping is so much against my nature, I despise that kind of behaviour. The Ark seemed to be surrounded by people (mostly women, as usual) who either were madly in love with cute Ola, or had decided he was Messiah reborn and their only and true Saviour. I was neither (ok, I admit I am a woman and not gay), I just liked the music and the show.
Of course nobody believed me. I suppose most people still don't. Ok, so they are ignorant. I have learnt to live with that, but back then it was annoying and a bit humiliating.
There was another little issue as well: I had no experience at all from making interviews. Interviews with cool rock artist were made by self-appointedly cool journalists, and I was a total rookie in that world. Actually the whole idea was so crazy that everyone told me it was no use, it would never work, and besides … well, why did I do this anyway? This was SO NOT ME. And still. Yet. There was some drive within me that just could not be stopped anymore. I found that feeling intriguing as such.
To make a long story a bit shorter: I finally got the interview, and I was more than pleased to get inside the head of a creative artist and serious musician for a while. Ola turned out to be just as professional, nice and clever as I had hoped him to be, and to get a dialogue with him was sheer pleasure.
And … I notice even today that I have difficulties describing this strange feeling, this "drive" I called it in the paragraph above. Somehow I knew this whole The Ark thing and this interview was not about them nor Ola at all. My relation to the band was rather irrelevant. They were never the centre of my universe, rather some kind of catalyst. Because this was about me, just me. I even expressed it to Ola once, I said "I know this will lead to something more, but I don't know what yet".
Maybe it is rather symptomatic that he managed to describe the feeling better himself, in one of his most famous songs. I know it is supposed to be a romantic song about teen love. He probably meant that himself, I think he said so once. But … today, the lyrics describe something else to me. Some kind of love that was not about a person.
What, then? Well, this is still a blog about piano playing …

Right after exiting the auditorium, Damien spotted her at the bar. He didn't realize it was Michelle until she smiled. He'd recognize that heart-stopping smile anywhere. She was stunning with her hair and face all done-up. A modern-day Dorothy Dandridge, whose image was still fresh in his mind from his last visit home. He'd watched, better yet, napped on the sofa while his mother watched Carmen Jones. He caught a few scenes of the movie during brief moments of consciousness, noting to himself how sexy the actress looked in that tight red skirt.
Damien fixed his eyes on Michelle for almost a minute, taking in her elegant beauty, before heading in her direction. He stopped suddenly when he saw some man standing next to her. She was on a date. But why him? Evidently, pretty boy candy ass was her type—that would explain why she'd avoided having lunch with him so many times.
She appeared to be having a great time with that dude, laughing at everything he said. Disappointed, Damien drifted outside to get some air for a few minutes.
"So you'd rather stand out here than speak to me? I thought we were friends," Michelle said, looking around with her palms up, doing a pretty good imitation of him.
"I didn't want to interrupt you and your date. You—"
"I don't have a date."
"Then who was that dude you were with?" Damien asked, trying to mask the edge with casual. "He was standing awfully close to you."
"Awful is right. His breath was a little tart," she said, fanning her nose. "He made some joke, and I had to throw my head back and laugh to keep from passing out. When I declined his offer to buy me a drink, he moved on to his next victim. That's when I saw you."
Damien's mood flipped a hundred eighty degrees. Michelle cheered him up and made him laugh in a matter of seconds. He was glad she wasn't out with some bad-breath loser, but he didn't like that she was alone. He should be with her instead of Angelica Winthrop, the spoiled daughter of a North Carolina politician he met at a mutual friend's barbecue in Cornelius last month.
Angelica had looked him up, asked him to dinner and invited him to spend the night. She was attractive, they'd had a nice time at dinner and it had been a while since he'd had sex. So he stayed over.
Three weeks in, he was ready to give her the fade out. She wasn't the woman for him.
On several occasions he'd witnessed her treat her staff like trash, not worthy of her time, let alone respect. She talked down to people that she deemed beneath her. He'd also had enough of her ordering him around in bed like he was some inexperienced recruit. The last time they were together, she threw a fit when he wouldn't choke her during sex. He was always down for a little freaky kink—a playful spank here, a little tie-me-up tie-me-down there. It was cool. But he drew the line at violence. He didn't need that to get off. He was over her when she tried to provoke him with a slap to his face.
Dinner and a show were her attempts at making amends. He had decided to play along for the night, then he was done. After the show, he planned to drop her off at her condo, then turn in early.
"You're not here by yourself, are you?" Michelle asked. "I—"
"No, he's not," Angelica said, clutching his arm as if to stake her claim. "And he was supposed to bring me a drink ten minutes ago."
Shit. He was so caught up in Michelle he'd forgotten about Angelica's wine. "I was getting some air first," he said. "It was a little stuffy in there.
"It's my fault," Michelle said, glancing at Damien. "I was jabbering on and made him lose track of time. I'm a client of Anthony Construction's. Mich—"
"How nice for you," Angelica said, looking past Michelle, ignoring her outstretched hand. "Damien, are you done here? I want to go back inside."
A surge of heat rose up his neck. He opened his mouth to put Angelica in her place, but Michelle beat him to it.
"Are you always this rude? Or are you just trying to seem more impressive than you really are?" Michelle asked, tucking her purse under her arm as if to free her hands in the event things got squirrely.
Angelica gasped. "Excuse me?"
"There is no excuse for your behavior. Damien was kind enough to accompany you to this wonderful event, even though he has a busy day tomorrow. The least you could do is show a little respect for one of his business associates. You need to use your manners and learn how to act in public. Good to see you again, Damien." Calm and collected, Michelle turned back to the auditorium.
Angelica glared at him. "I can't believe you let that...that woman talk to me that way."
"You started it," he told her, trying to stifle a laugh. "Michelle is one of my best clients, and you dismissed her like she was the freaking help. You had no—"
"You're defending her? I can't believe this." Angelica stomped away from him, then whipped around. "Take me home. Right now."
"What about the rest of the show? Intermission's almost over. Let's go back in, watch Simba do his thing, then I'll take you home."
Angelica folded her arms and pouted like some spoiled little brat. "Take me home now, Damien."
In silence, he drove Angelica to her South End condo. When he moved to get out of the car, she stopped him. "Don't bother, I can open my own damn door." She got out, then leaned back in. "And lose my number." She slammed the car door and stomped into her building.
Relieved, Damien cranked up Gnarles Barkley's "Crazy" and cruised home—happy to leave behind and forget the Uptown socialite from hell.

The modern way of life requires fast and reliable access to information, and users want a single solution for their IT needs, regardless of where their IT resources are located, and ways to access them. It is no longer only important to network, but rather to offer services, tools and complete solutions that needed both in the economy and in society as a whole. Connectivity, as the basic service of telecoms operators, in this way gains a new dimension and importance, but its quality becomes crucial. In short, that is actually the essence of ICT concepts and approaches. Users are not interested in technology and the way something is implemented; the user only wants to satisfy their needs, as quickly and simply as possible, with the lowest possible costs.
When one looks at the telecoms market in the Republic of Serbia, an indisputable fact is that Telekom Srbija has been recognised as the most important factor of development and innovation, and that it covers the entire range of telecommunications services, as well as the most advanced ICT solutions.
Telekom Srbija, following world trends on the market, has identified customer needs and presented itself as a strong player on the ICT scene, offering an ever increasing number of services and solutions in the ICT domain. In the past few years, Telekom Srbija has invested significant resources in the development of ICT solutions as part of the digital transformation to the market and the company itself.
IT is a complex segment, and for many users it is still not clear what they get by using ICT services, with the widespread problem of a lack of IT staff. For this reason, many of the ICT services that we offer to our customers are easy to activate, tailored both to users with advanced knowledge of IT and users who have encountered IT exclusively through Gmail and Facebook.
The already know services that are the basis of every ICT market – web and mail hosting, as well as domain registration, have been offered by Telekom Srbija since their founding nearly ten years ago. This year, these services are given new, modern attire in the form of the latest Cloud platform, based on the principle of Software as a Service – SaaS. Activation and use of services is as easy as Gmail or Facebook.
The Cloud platform, from which Telekom Serbia offers services in the "cloud", is becoming increasingly popular, especially in the segment of small and medium-sized enterprises, where it is necessary to quickly allocate IT resources, without major investment.
Telekom Serbia, by following world trends on the market, has identified customer needs and presented itself as a strong player on the ICT scene, offering an ever increasing number of services and solutions in the ICT domain. In recent years, Telekom Serbia has invested significant resources in the development of ICT solutions as part of the process of digital transformation both for the market and the company itself.
Providing infrastructure as a service (IaaS) within the framework of Cloud services achieves flexibility in the area of server infrastructure at an unprecedented level. The user, regardless of the area of operation and size, is in a position to, within a few minutes, raise servers that previously required several weeks, or even months. In addition to the speed of implementation, for customers it is extremely important that this does not entail any initial costs, that they are billed monthly and are done so through the principle of pay-per-use and pay-as-you-grow, without the need to pre-plan sizing servers for the upcoming period of time.
The introduction of Cloud services and the possibilities of using it to offer different software, according to the aforementioned SaaS principle, enables small companies and start-ups dealing with software development to easily reach a huge market, using the sales channels and marketing of Telekom Srbija to promote their software, along with simultaneous hosting software on the latest platforms, with top security and guaranteed availability. The guaranteed security of data, and the fact that data contained on the platform does not leave the borders of the Republic of Serbia, ensures that Telekom Srbija is recognised as a high quality and reliable partner on the ICT scene. Several domestic companies are in the process of certifying software, after which they will be able to present them to the market through the Cloud services of Telekom Srbija, where Telekom wold carry out payment collection, promotion and the provision of hosting services for end users.
Cyber security is not only limited to the Cloud. Telekom Srbija is aware that in today's times information is worth as much as pure gold, and it approaches the issue of security with due diligence. A wide range of services related to security are available to our customers – from the simplest antivirus software, via control of access to the internet, email filtering and SPAM protection, all the way to the most modern systems for the protection of corporate internet access and systems for protection against DDoS attacks. All systems that are available to our customers are also systems that Telekom Srbija uses for its own needs, which means first-class systems and platforms for our users, regardless of the size of the user.
The Cloud platform, from which Telekom Serbia offers services in the "cloud", is becoming increasingly popular, especially in the segment of small and medium-sized enterprises, where it is necessary to quickly allocate IT resources, without major investment.
In addition to cyber-security, Telekom Srbija also offers the option of Telehousing, placing user equipment in the most advanced data centre in this part of Europe – with state of the art physical and technical security systems (access control, video surveillance etc.), alongside the perfect conditions for the operation of equipment (power and air conditioning, and redundant optical access).
The ICT market is very dynamic and it is essential to have a strong and reliable partner who it able to follow it. Telekom Srbija, by offering ICT services and complete solutions in this way, frees the end-user of concerns about planning, procurement, maintenance and the operation of essential IT resources, allowing them to concentrate on their core business.
By offering ICT services in a simple way, Telekom Serbia allows for better and easier operations, also performing seamless transition from "old-fashioned" ways of doing business with the help of paper or, at best, Excel spreadsheets, to the modern way of doing business, where a company's management can instantly receive required reports, access the desired data or communicate with employees, regardless of where they are and which technologies they use.
The development of ICT is not only in more investments or building high quality and reliable infrastructure, but rather also in the continuous education of both employees and the market itself, and introducing the benefits brought by ICT transformation, the better use of resources and reducing costs.

Hey friends, sorry for the quiet and tranquility, I've been on a "Vacation" of figuring a lot of things and reworking Ragville. It's been an interesting journey but I feel it was necessary for me to take a step back and analyze where the series was heading… Yah know.. not just the series but everything.
It's been a wacky past few years and it feels like there's so much going on these days that I sort of lost track of what I wanted to do, life sometimes just becomes a process due to work, school, chores and we become busy bodies and forget about what matters. I needed to tune out and collect myself and my series.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Strings [BG]' started by silvad0ugh, Jul 17, 2002.
Wut's your favorite brand of stainless steel strings and why?
Pyramid Pyrasound.
sound - good linear sound, very good brilliance that settles on a high level.
longevity, they stay bright for a long time and
quality - not one dead string in almost 10 years
no silk wrapping
the price: 15-20 Euro (in Germany)
you can get any gauge and scale, individual strings or custom sets. I play a regular Funk set (.035-.095)
I tried Ken Smith Rockmasters (light gauge) initially for the price. ($13-$14 a set) I have tried other stainless strings (Prisms and Blue Steels), and I prefer the Smith's. They have a very bright tone (not as bright as Prisms) and good fundemental. They are constructed well and don't go dead as quick as some other strings.
If I use roundwounds, I use Ken Smith Burners. They don't feel like stainless steel.
I have been using the DR's but have been having some issues with the price/ocassional dead string ratio. I just got another set with a dead string which is the third time in about 4 months.
I have had good luck and results with Ken Smith Rock Masters, D'Addario XL's and Erni Bass Super Slinky's in the past. I may have to go back to these brands.
Any other suggestions.
*coughs* rotosounds *coughs*
I use Fender Stainless -- because they're inexpensive.
I play Pyramid too
I have the makin me stainless steel set for my 7-string
It's .180 .140 .115 .85 .65 .45 .30
They rule !!

Cave of the Lakes in Kalavryta
The Cave of the Lakes Kastria: The cave of the lakes Kastria is an amazing natural creation. It is actually divided into three caves, which are connected to each other with lots of corridors surrounded by strange stalactite formations. The cave is actually a long, subterranean river which forms a lot of small lakes.
The cave is about 2,000m long but you can walk only the 500m. You cross narrow corridors and artificial bridges that pass over the lakes and you see amazing stalactites and stalagmites formations. In winter, when the snow melts, natural waterfalls are formed. In summer, part of the cave dries and reveals new stalagmites formations. The natural entrance is right on the road, while there is another man-made entry a few meters away.
According to the myth, some young girls would live in the area, Lyssippi, Ifinoy, and Ifianassa, who said that they were more beautiful than goddess Hera. When Hera heard that, she got angry and took their sanity. Since then, the three girls would believe they were cows, run wild around the area and persuade the women to kill their children. Someday, they came to this cave, got cured by god Melambodas, who resided there, and lived in the nearby Loussoi village.
The cave was developed in 1967 by some local shepherds and its development started in 1981. Today it belongs to the municipality of Lefkasio. It is situated 20 km from Kalavryta and 9 km from Klitoria village.

UPDATE: After gathering feedback, I've decided I will keep the time where it is right now. Changing it will displace more people than it would gain. Sorry, Tox1c. :/
Hey guys, user Tox1cfarts brought it to my attention that because of a sudden work schedule change, he won't be able to make it to any of the series races. He's requested that the times be moved to at least 7:30 PM EST. Would everyone be okay with this or able to make this?

This glass is from my private glass stash and it is amazing! Optical coating glass is used in many different applications including the aerospace program. The snowflake colors shift* when tilted and viewed in different lighting. (Not the same as dichroic glass.) The glass seems to pick up colors nearby and will coordinate with any holiday color theme, making these the ideal hostess gift.
This is a limited series because I have been unable to find more of this glass anywhere! These unique ornaments represent the very last of this glass from my studio.
The large ornaments measure approximately 3-1/4″ wide and are sold individually. They arrive in the packaging shown. Group photo is provided for a size comparison. This listing is for the large ornaments only.
*Color shifting: I noticed a light silvery green, cobalt blue and magenta. The ornaments are sandblasted on one side, and the front side was left clear for added depth.
Please Note: Every snowflake pattern is different. You choose the quantity and I will take it from there. Every handmade ornament is enchanting, and almost as mesmerizing as watching real snowflakes fall.

Stop by the Wayne County Public Library in Wooster to see the display featuring the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln and Peter Hartman, a coverlet weaver in the 1800s from Wayne County. The displays are located just inside the back doors (south side), down the hallway to the left. They can be viewed during library hours.
The Lincoln display was curated by Gerald Payn showing four periods in Lincoln's life: his youth, his years as a lawyer and politician, his presidency, and the Civil War.
The Civil War display, which shows authentic artifacts from the period, was laid out by Roger Rowe, the Historical Society's curator of militaria.
An in-depth display of the many designs of Wooster coverlet-weaver Peter Hartman was curated by Ginny Gunn, a member of the WCHS textile committee.
The display at the Library will remain until February 28. We hope you'll stop in. Let us know your thoughts!

Step 1
Lay the pond's liner over the pond, making sure that you have enough liner. The liner should drape over the pond and you should have enough fabric to lay over the sides of the pond.
Step 2
Cut or break stones to fit using a wet saw or by slowly chipping small pieces off of the edge of the stone using a hammer.
Step 3
Lay the stone pieces flat onto the inner lining of the pond. Fit each stone together like a puzzle.
Continue to do this until the base and walls are stacked with stones.
Step 4
Pick up each stone one at a time and apply silicone caulk on the underside. Push the caulked stone back onto the liner where you just removed it.
Continue with each stone.
Step 5
Squirt caulk in between each stone and push small gravel pieces into the caulk until the cracks fill up. The gravel stones will help mask the cracks and protect the liner from tears.

Allen Joseph Stoner
Married: 12 Dec 1916 Richland Co., OH
Married: Richland Co., OH
Married: Richland Co., OH
Allen Stoner married Gertrude L. Miller, daughter of the prominent "Doc" Miller of Mansfield, Ohio. They had two children, where afterwards, Allen abandoned the family and paid only a couple of month's support and alimony. He spent 2 weeks in jail for this; when the judge kicked him out and told him to get a job and pay. Gertrude's father supported the family afterwards.
Allen married next Verna Maude Vance. They had no children together, although Verna had a daughter from a prior marriage. Verna died suddenly in October 1956.
Allen then married for a third time. His new wife was Elsie ____ . He and Elsie spent the rest of Allen's life together. During this time, Allen and Gertrude's son, Allen Joseph Stoner, Jr. had a family with three children, which he abandoned then moved to Roanoke, VA where he (Allen Jr.) married again (without divorcing his first wife) to have another family with three more children. These two families were totally unaware of each other. However, Allen Sr. and Elsie knew about both families. They would travel visiting each family, staying for a few weeks to a few months at each home. He and Elsie also spent time in a cabin in Canada they owned. As one of Allen Sr.'s granddaughter's, Pamela Ann (Stoner) Seeley recalls, Allen and Elsie would come to visit, and unpack the car. Elsie would then immediately start looking through the papers for a temp job as a secretary. They would stay with Pam's family for up to three months at a time, then move on.
Later on, Allen and Elsie would spend a lot of time traveling about Europe. During this time, they wrote a book, "Vacation Daze". "It reads like a bunch of travel brochures," states Allen Sr.'s granddaughter, Pamela Seeley. Pam also remebers Allen as "narcissistic".
Allen also ran the Stoner Insurance Agency in Mansfield, Ohio where his (relation) Iris worked as a secretary.
Allen had a paranoid outlook at many things. He would carry bottled water around with him everywhere in his car, because he believed that the fluoridation of the water supply was a Communist plot to poison the water. As his great-grandson, Nick Stoner recalls, on one visit to their home, Allen went through all the cabinets while Nick's mother was at work, and broke all the handles off all the aluminum pots and pans so they were not useable. He did this because he believed that cooking in aluminum poisoned you. Allen was health-consious to the extreme.
Nearing the end of his life, Allen became extremely paranoid towards Elsie, and accused her of poisoning his food to kill him and trying to steal his gold. Allen died in April 1985 of a heart-attack. No poisons.
Unfortunately, there aren't many good memories from those who knew Allen. When we went to interview Elsie, she had died of old age. It does appear the she and Allen loved each other and took care of each other.
Daughter of Allen and Gertrude:
Helen Stoner
Married: 17 July 1977 Richland Co., OH
Helen recalls: At the age of 16 or 17, she was out on a date and they got in a car wreck (the boy driving was drunk). She was taken to the hospital and was unconscious for a week and needed a blood transfusion. Neither Allen's nor Gertrude's blood matched, so they called Allen's brother, Delbert Stoner. His blood was a match, and he gave a pint. The next afternoon, she came to. To this day, she credits Uncle Delbert with saving her life.
