The articles below will be published online June 17, 2010, at 4 p.m. (ET) by the American Journal of Public Health under "First Look," and they are currently scheduled to appear in the August 2010 print issue of the Journal. "First Look" articles have undergone peer review, copyediting and approval by authors but have not yet been printed to paper or posted online by issue. The American Journal of Public Health is published by the American Public Health Association.
American Journal of Public Health Highlights:
· Raising the price of soft drinks may reduce consumption and improve health
· Male perpetration of intimate partner violence is connected to risk for abortion and coercion of women about pregnancy decisions
· Screening for military-related sexual trauma identifies patients at increased risk for post-deployment mental health conditions
Raising the price of soft drinks may reduce consumption and improve health
A price increase on regular soft drinks may make patrons think twice about purchasing these sugary beverages and instead opt for a healthier, cheaper beverage, suggests a new study published in the American Journal of Public Health.
According to researchers, consumption of sugary soft drinks has risen substantially over the past 25 years. Increased intake of these sugary beverages has significant health implications such as greater risks of obesity and diabetes. Population-level strategies to reduce consumption may include a price increase or taxation or education. Researchers investigated several point-of-purchase interventions at the Brigham and Women's Hospital cafeteria in Boston, Mass. They imposed a 35 percent price increase on regular soft drinks and compared sales during this period to sales during an educational campaign. Researchers also analyzed sales at a comparison site, Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital, also in Boston, where no interventions were underway. They found that sales of regular soft drinks declined by 26 percent during the price increase phase. The educational campaign on its own did not affect sales. When the price increase and educational campaign were combined, there was an additional 18 percent decline in purchases of regular soda compared to no intervention."Policymakers and public health advocates have proposed the taxation of regular soft drinks as a means to reduce the consumption of these products and raise revenue for public health purposes. Our results may have implications for these proposed policies" the study's authors stated.
"Future research should test price increases on fruit juices and other sugary beverages and should examine several price levels to determine what price increase is most effective in reducing sugary beverages sales while maintaining revenue neutrality for a cafeteria or food establishment." [From: "Point-of-Purchase and Education Intervention to Reduce Consumption of Sugary Soft Drinks." Contact: Jason Block, Harvard Medical School, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute, Boston, Mass.].
Male perpetration of intimate partner violence is connected to risk for abortion and coercion of women about pregnancy decisions
Abusive men are more likely than non-abusive men to report being involved in pregnancies ending in abortion, a new study from the American Journal of Public Health finds.
Intimate partner violence is a public health issue, affecting lives of 20-25 percent of adolescent and adult U.S. women, according to the study's authors. In this study, researchers surveyed a sample of 1,318 men age 18 to 35 years, to examine the relationships among intimate partner violence, abortion involvement and conflict regarding decisions to seek abortion. Study participants consisted of English-, Spanish- or Portugese-speaking men recruited from three large community health centers located in lower-income, urban Boston neighborhoods. Researchers found that abusive men were 80 percent more likely to have been involved in pregnancies ending in abortion, and approximately 3 times more likely to have attempted to control a female partner's decision about whether or not she should terminate a pregnancy.
The study's authors suggest, "Policies aimed at requiring women to notify partners or to obtain partner consent before undergoing an abortion should be reconsidered because of the likelihood of both endangering women and placing them at risk for coercion regarding this critical decision."[From: "Male Perpetration of Intimate Partner Violence and Involvement in Abortions in Abortion-related Conflict." Contact: Jay Silverman, Harvard School of Public Health].
Screening for military-related sexual trauma identifies patients at increased risk for post-deployment mental health conditions Combat stress is not the only post-deployment mental health concern among our nation's new veterans: The wide ranging mental health conditions associated with sexual assault and harassment constitute a major public health issue in caring for the men and women recently returned from Iraq and Afghanistan, says a new study published in the American Journal of Public Health. Veterans who have experienced military sexual trauma are at a particular high risk for mental health conditions, ranging from post traumatic stress disorder to depression, substance use disorders, and other stress related conditions.
Researchers from the VA Palo Alto Health Care System set out to examine military-related sexual trauma among deployed veterans. The sample included all veterans deployed in service of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom and separated from military service by Sept. 30, 2006, who used Veterans Health Administration mental health or primary care services between Oct. 1, 2001, and Sept. 30, 2007. Among the cohort of 17,580 women and 108.149 men who underwent routine screening for military sexual trauma by VHA providers, 15.1 percent of the women and 0.7 percent of the men reported sexual trauma. Researchers found that the majority, approximately 75 percent, of women and men who reported a history of military sexual trauma were diagnosed with a mental health condition, making them significantly more likely to experience mental health problems than those who did not report military sexual trauma.
"These data highlight the need to ensure adequate access to and capacity of mental health care for military sexual trauma and associated post-deployment mental health conditions" note the researchers. Rachel Kimerling, Ph.D., the study's lead author from the National Center for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder at the VA Palo Alto Health Care System, added, "VHA's universal screening for military sexual trauma means that we are able to detect these experiences in new veterans earlier than ever before, in an effort to provide timely treatments and prevent these conditions from becoming chronic problems".

Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender star in the latest retelling of Charlotte Brontë's classic tale of a poor young woman and her dangerous relationship with a wealthy man.
This whole vampire thing has officially achieved unbridled ridiculousness.
Art house movie god Jim Jarmusch has convinced Tilda Swinton, Michael Fassbender and Mia Wasikowska to star as bloodsuckers in a film the director describes as a "crypto-vampire love story" set in Detroit and Tangiers, reported ScreenDaily.
"I've been imagining this film for years. I can't wait to now realize it with these remarkable collaborators," Jarmusch told SD.
Earlier today came word that Saoirse Ronan and Gemma Arterton will be starring in the vampire film "Byzantium," about a mother-daughter vampire duo who sometimes pose as sibling, from director Neil Jordan.
It really is hard to kill vampires.

President Obama this week will wend his way through Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Ohio to explain why he has little power to lower gasoline prices, and why he has a long-term energy strategy that he believes can reduce the effects of pump price fluctuations in the long term. When would the president's strategy pay off? The benefits of Obama's approach are ongoing, the White House said Monday, even if gasoline prices keep rising because of global market activity out of the president's control.

On Sunday the Boston Celtics learned that point guard Rajon Rondo has torn his ACL and would be lost for the season. Beyond the immediate implications this has on the Celtics, a spot has just opened up on Eastern Conference All-Star team. There has already been speculation as to who will replace Rondo on the All-Star team, but an announcement hasn't yet officially been made.
David Stern isn't restricted to just selecting a guard to replace Rondo on the team, which means some of the players that got snubbed in both the initial vote and the selection of the reserves have had their All-Star hopes restored.
Right now, the favorite among the basketball community to replace Rondo is Brooklyn Nets center Brook Lopez. Many thought that Lopez had a pretty good shot at making the All-Star team as a reserve but was ultimately beat out by Chris Bosh, Tyson Chandler and Joakim Noah as big men to be added to the team.
Luol Deng also made the team, which suggests the East already has enough frontcourt players and that Stern might go in the direction of selecting Dwyane Wade, Ray Allen or another guard from a top team in the East.
A decision isn't expected to take too long to be made, and obviously the NBA is going to take a bit of time to distance an announcement from the one today that Rondo has been lost for the season. There are plenty of questions that have suddenly become relevant thanks to this unfortunate injury, and while who will replace Rondo in the All-Star game isn't a pressing one, it's relevant nonetheless.

ss 2.4 and upload problem.
16 June 2010 at 7:42am Last edited: 16 June 2010 8:01am
I recently upgraded to 2.4. And now I cant upload images or files anymore.
When i click on the upload button i get " file is not a valid upload!"
I did search teh forum, and I found that more people than I had the same problem, but noone had found an answer for the problem.
So I hope someone can point me in the right direction. I do have some more sites I would like to upgrade to SS 2.4 but if there is no solution for the upload problem then SS 2.4 cant be a stable release in my opinion. Should I wait for SS 2.4.1?

HanSolo, did u eventually solve your problem ?
I now upgraded my client to 2.4.1 and have an upload problem - admin can upload, user can't upload.
do you have swfupload installed ?
Re: ss 2.4 and upload problem.
21 September 2010 at 7:02am
Had the same problem on one hosting.
Everything works fine on my computer and another hostings just one had such problem.
"Files and Images" works fine, but when i was clicking "add image" in TinyMCE and Upload then, i got that error.
It was fixed after I modified sapphire/filesystem/Upload.php function validate()
I just moved
$pathInfo = pathinfo($this->tmpFile['name']);
if(isset($this->tmpFile['tmp_name']) && !is_uploaded_file($this->tmpFile['tmp_name']) && !SapphireTest::is_running_test())
I tried to remove conditions to parse params, but got nothing ... it's very strange, but now it's working.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - Mahoning County Commissioners will hold a hearing on Monday morning on the proposed sales tax increase that will appear on the May ballot.
Commissioners are asking for a quarter percent sales tax increase over the current seven percent sales tax in the county.
The county hopes that the 7.25 percent sales tax would generate an extra $7.5 million a year to help offset cuts in state funding.
Commissioner David Ditzler and County Budget Director Audrey Tillis appeared on WFMJ Weekend Today to discuss the proposed sales tax.
"We want to hear what people have to say. There are two options the board is considering to put on the ballot. They both do the exact same thing, but there are two options and we want to make that clear to everybody so the board will know how to proceed at that point," Tillis said
"We'll go to any local community to talk. We'll talk to people individually," Ditzler said.
The sales tax hearing is set for 10:30 am Monday in the commissioners hearing room at the Mahoning County Courthouse.

The Pope's Last Day of Work (via cracked)
Behold one of the funnest and least-viewed articles I've ever written for Cracked! It's topical and hilarious and honestly Cracked might have been better off paying me to read it to myself in front of a mirror, because that would have nearly as many readers. But they're fantastic and let me write it on the front page anyway.

And you're fantastic because you're going to read it so I can do stuff like this again, right?

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - What may be North Carolina's final sales tax holiday time for quite some time has started.
The state's annual weekend exempting sales taxes from purchases of certain energy efficient home appliances began at midnight Thursday and runs through late Sunday night.
The holiday applies to Energy Star-labeled clothes washers, refrigerators and freezers, air conditioners, ceiling fans and programmable thermostats and other products. Business purchases don't qualify.
The General Assembly passed a tax overhaul law this year that repealed the sales tax weekends on Energy Star appliances and the one held every August for clothing, computers and school supplies and sports equipment. The holidays won't occur in 2014 and beyond.

Student Government Association (SGA)
The Middlebury College Student Government Association represents the student body in the decision-making processes of the College. It is the official channel for student participation in formulation of institutional policy affecting academic and student affairs. It is also responsible for the equitable allocation of the Student Activities Fee to student organizations and for approving new student organizations.
The SGA is comprised of the SGA Senate (elected commons representatives and class representatives) and the SGA Cabinet, a body of appointed advisors responsible for specific issues such as the environment, academic affairs, alumni relations, and institutional diversity. The SGA Cabinet reports to the SGA President (elected by the whole student body), who is also a member of the SGA Senate. Cabinet members often chair their own committees that help implement policies and resolutions passed by the Senate. The SGA also makes appointments to student, joint student/faculty, and trustee councils and committees.
In sum, the SGA acts as a single unified group addressing problems facing the student body and the campus community.
For more information see the SGA blog at go/sga.
What does the SGA do?
The SGA represents the voice of the student body on campus, bringing issues to the attention of the College administration. Every year, the SGA addresses a variety of student concerns, which in recent years have included orientation trip programs, the Pass/D/Fail option, first year intercommons programming, and a bike room that generates its own electricity.
In addition, the SGA also:
- Distributes the student activities fee to over 150 student organizations on campus
- Approves new student organization applications
- Provides free buses to the Snow Bowl during the ski season
- Subsidizes ACTR buses that run routes around the county and to Burlington
- Provides free daily newspapers in the dining halls
- Coordinates break buses to Boston, NYC, White Plains, Burlington Airport, Amtrak train stations, and more
- Maintains the YouPower bike room in Freeman International Center (FIC)
- Pays for part of the cost of MiddView (fall orientation) trips
- Recognizes outstanding student leaders at the end of the school year
- Appoints students to various College-sanctioned committees
SGA Break Buses
For college breaks, the SGA provides inexpensive and convenient bus service to and from:
- Burlington International Airport (The airport serves as a transportation hub for major airlines such as Continental, Delta, JetBlue, United and USAir)
- Burlington Greyhound Station (The Greyhound station provides bus service to Montreal and Boston four times a day, everyday)
- Boston- South Station, Atlantic Avenue side
- New York City- Penn Station
Buses are offered for:
- Fall break
- Thanksgiving
- Winter break
- Feb break
- Spring break
All buses depart from campus at Adirondack Circle (ADK).

The Capital and Risk Adjustment Under Regulatory Pressure of Chinese Commercial Banks
This paper analyzes the adjustment of Chinese commercial banks' capital and risk after the implementation of Measures for the Management of Capital Adequacy Ratios of Commercial Banks, using 3SLS technique and a simultaneous equation model (Shrieves and Dahl, 1992) with data of 28 commercial banks. The results suggest that banks increase the capital level in order to meet the reqirement of capital regulation; the regulation pressure increases the risk taken by banks with inadequate capital, and increases the capital level in banks with adequate capital.
Key words: Capital Adequacy Ratios; Regulation Pressure; Risk Taking

How Soon After Baby Did You Resume Sex?
How Soon After Baby Did You Resume Sex?
by POPSUGAR Moms 14 Reactions 0 Shares Print
Sex is the last thing on a mom's mind after giving birth, but the subject is sure to come up. Most doctors suggest waiting until after the six-week postpartum appointment to ensure that the cervix is completely closed and the uterus has returned to its pre-baby size. Did you follow the doctor's orders, or did you get busy sooner?

It was at about 4 weeks. We couldn't wait!
mstrauss 5 years
I remember my sisters saying to me "Take your time. The sooner you go at it, the more it is going to hurt." I waited until the 3 month mark and it was great! I had a c-section so I was worried about pain but it was totally fine. The trick was what to do with my awake baby...
AnnaLove 5 years
I don't know why these things always say that a woman has no interest in sex immediately after giving birth... I was ready to go before we even left the hospital but that obviously didn't work due to my stitches :( After that we waited like 2 wks then started trying again but like others have said IT HURTS! I think it finally successfully happened around 4-5 wks but FYI it KILLLLS unless the guy's on top.

Presentation: The Blue Zones
Dan Buettner is a National Geographic Fellow and New York Times best selling author. His New York Times Sunday Magazine article, "The Island Where People Forget to Die" was the second most popular article of 2012. He founded Blue Zones, a company that puts the world's best practices in longevity and well-being to work in people's lives. Buettner's National Geographic cover story on longevity, "The Secrets of Living Longer" was one of their top-selling issues in history and a made him a finalist for a National Magazine Award. His books The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer from the People Who've Lived the Longest (2008) and Thrive: Finding Happiness the Blue Zones Way (2010) appeared on many best seller lists and were both featured on Oprah.
In 2009, Dan Buettner and his partner, AARP, applied principles of The Blue Zones to Albert Lea, Minnesota and successfully raised life expectancy and lowered health care costs by some 40%. He's currently working with Healthways to implement the program in three Beach Cities of Los Angeles; Fort Worth, Texas; Kauai, Hawaii and the entire state of Iowa. Their strategy focuses on optimizing the health environment instead of individual behavior change. Writing in Newsweek, Harvard University's Walter Willet called the results "stunning."
Dan also holds three world records in distance cycling and has won an Emmy Award for television production.

Nassim N. Taleb
Weds, April 09 • 8:30 am - 10:30 am • Mauna Lani Ballroom
Presentation: Antifragile, Things that Gain from Disorder
Nassim Nicholas Taleb has devoted his life to problems of uncertainty, probability, and knowledge. He spent two decades as a trader before becoming a philosophical essayist and academic researcher. Although he now spends most of his time either working in intense seclusion in his study, or as a flâneur meditating in cafés across the planet, he is currently Distinguished Professor of Risk Engineering at New York University's Polytechnic Institute. His main subject matter is "decision making under opacity", that is, a map and a protocol on how we should live in a world we don't understand.
His works are grouped under the general title Incerto (Latin for uncertainty), composed of a trilogy accessible in any order (Antifragile, The Black Swan, and Fooled by Randomness) plus two addenda: a book of philosophical aphorisms (The Bed of Procrustes) and a freely available Technical Companion. Taleb's books have been published in thirty-three languages.
Taleb believes that prizes, honorary degrees, awards, and ceremonialism debase knowledge by turning it into a spectator sport.Nassim N. Taleb

Questioned Documents Analysis
During the investigation of the Mondelo murder, police have turned their suspicion on business partner John Wayne Gretsky, finding questionable receipts on his des. Your students must determine if these receipts are legitimate business documents or evidence of a crime. To do this, students must determine objective criteria for hand writing analysis, and then apply these criteria when examining suspect receipts.
After analyzing the handwriting, students will dissolve the ink from numbers on the suspect invoices. Then, using thin layer chromatography, they will create an ink profile for each of the samples taken from the reciept. From this information, students will determine if the same ink was used to fill out the entire form. Finally, by combining where different inks were used with what reciepts are suspected of forgery, students can develop a complete theory of the suspected forgery.
As in all Lyle and Louise modules, this kit is geared to high school and undergraduate courses, and is matched to National Science Education Standards.

G37 Oilers at Islanders
The New York Islanders of the Torrey-Arbour era were formidable. Quality, depth, skill and a massive mean streak, the club had impact players who were complemented by a large group of role players. Although Bill Torrey didn't invent the trade deadline, he famously used it to put his team over the top in 1980.
It didn't take a long time for the Islanders to win. Their first draft picks (expansion and amateur) came in 1972 and they won their first Stanley in 1980. Nine seasons. It'll be six seasons since 2006 summer for the Oilers at the end of this campaign.
Islanders had 12 wins in their first season and 19 the next–that was the season they hired Al Arbour. 33 wins in year three and then 42, 47, 48, 51 and then 39 in the season the Islanders won their first Stanley.
Bill Torrey, Al Arbour and a bunch of hockey men with names like Gerry Ehman and Earl Ingarfield quickly became one of the "have" teams at the draft table during the 1970s. Montreal, Boston, Toronto, Buffalo, Philadelphia and the Islanders had better scouting and there was no central scouting bureau at the time.
- 1972: Billy Harris, Bob Nystrom, Garry Howatt, Lorne Henning, Richard Brodeur
- 1973: Denis Potvin, Dave Lewis, Bob Lorimer, Lorne Henning
- 1974: Bryan Trottier, Clark Gillies, Dave Langevin, Stefan Persson
Plus they were always buying a Chico Resch here or trading two old bolts for Bob Bourne. They collected talent and inserted said talent when ready. Some of those kids came right to the NHL, and others–mostly defensemen–came along a few years after they were drafted. The universal draft made eligible 20-year old kids through 1973 and the 1974 draft allowed one underager per team (said player had to be drafted in round one or two, Trottier was the Isles choice).
The key elements to the success of the Islanders came from Oakland, Charles Finley and the broken down Seals. Brad Kurtzberg wrote a book on the Seals called (aptly) Shorthanded, and it includes this item on Torrey's dealings with the Seals owner:
Bill Torrey and the people he knew built a dynasty on Long Island, but it could just as easily have been put together in Oakland. Does anyone seriously believe Bill Torrey–the man who walked the streets of Montreal for an hour before the 1973 draft with Sam Pollock alongside trying to talk him out of Denis Potvin–would have traded the pick that became Guy Lafleur?
Both the Oilers and Islanders are drafting well, both have outstanding prospects in all areas of their farm system and a few at the NHL level. The key comes in taking those talents and marrying them to veteran players who can help them develop and win by mentoring them.
In a very real way, we don't have to wonder about Steve Tambellini and Garth Snow, we already have the answer. Islander and Oiler fans are waiting on the ownership to move on to the next phase. In Edmonton, I believe Stu MacGregor has done a fine job–it's on display in Edmonton with the Oilers, in Calgary and Edmonton at the WJ's, in Medicine Hat with the Tigers and in OKC.
The Oilers have their lottery talents, it's the Chico Resch's and Eddie Westfall's they need to add, their Gerry Hart's and Billy Smith's.
Steve Tambellini believes the Oilers have the pieces in place to make a playoff run. That isn't the question I'm asking. The question is what does Daryl Katz believe? How long is he willing to watch his lottery kids play for a team that's driving in the ditch?
We wait.

Title: The Joys of Raising Five Boys (Part Geoff)
Rating: T
Notes: All my love to PossiblyMichaelJones for betaing! I'll post a part a day so I hope you'll all look at the next part tomorrow!
Summary:OR the one where Achievement Hunter is actually a family of five boys raised by Geoff Ramsey.
Geoff buried his head into the pillow as the door creaked open, letting in a burst of screams, before closing once more. The lights flicked on. He tried to ignore whoever it was, but, soon enough, there was the soft pad of feet crossing the floor before there were tiny hands on his side, "Daddy. Daddy, it's time to get up."
He tried to ignore it, but the hands were persistent until he finally gripped one. He heard a loud squeal as he grabbed his son by the waist and hoisted the five year old onto the bed with him, holding him close to his chest as he let his eyes close. "Go back to sleep Ray."
"Daddy," Ray whined, squirming in his arms. "We can't! You have to drive us to school and then go to work."
"Mhm, don't wanna."
"You have to!"
A smile spread across Geoff's face, "Well, if we have to go to work, we have to play first!"
"Wha-" The boy was cut off by Geoff's fingers attacking his stomach. Ray kicked his legs, laughing at the way the tickling felt.
Smiles were spread across both of their faces until Ray finally managed to squirm away. He stood at the side of the bed, his hair messy from rubbing against the comforter and a straight look on his face, "Geez, Daddy!"
"Yeah, yeah," Geoff patted his back, sending the boy stumbling forward. "Get out of here and get ready for school."
Ray pouted for a moment before walking out, shouting, "Michael, where's the hair brush?"
Geoff waited until the door shut behind him before he stood up, stretched out his limbs, and walked into his bathroom.
Thirty minutes later, Geoff entered the kitchen to a mess of cereal boxes and boys gathered around the island. Michael and Ray were sitting on the left side, both with bowls of Reeses Cocoa Puffs, while Ryan and Jack sat on the other. There was a half eaten bowl of Fruit Loops on the other side of Jack's math textbook and Ryan had his DS lying on the table.
"Where's Gav?" Geoff questioned as he walked past Ryan, patting the fifteen year old on the back and reaching across the island to grab the cereal box from in front of Michael. He pointed at the box, "I told you no more Reeses Puffs on school days, Mike, and that thing stays here Ryan. I can't afford to buy you another one if you want that car next year."
"I know that," Ryan declared, biting his lips as he jabbed at the screen. "I think Gav ran outside, though."
"It's my PE Semester," Michael replied. "I'll run better if I'm on a sugar high."
"Yeah, and then you'll crash in the middle of your history class and your teacher is going to lecture me." Geoff shot back. He gave Michael a firm look, "Make yourself some cinnamon rolls or something."
As he was placing the cereal back on top the fridge, there was a gust of cold air as the door opened and shut. A moment later, Gavin came sliding into the kitchen with his cheeks a rosy red from the chill outside and his coat and gloves covered in snow. The eight year old strolled in, a wide grin on his face, "Morning, guys."
Michael cast a side glance over at him, "Why are you so fucking happy?"
"Language!" Geoff cast over his shoulder. "I'm not going to keep fucking telling you."
"You just said it yourself!"
"But that's because he's Dad, Mi-cool~" Gavin sung. When Michael turned to snap at him, Gavin gripped the collar of his brother's shirt and slid a handful of snow down his back.
"Ah! Cold, cold, cold!" Michael screeched, dancing around the kitchen. There was bumping and shouting as glasses of milk and orange juice were spilled, before Michael added, "I'm going to kill you Gavin!"
"Hey! Stop that!" Neither boy listened to him as they went running out of the room, manic laughs coming from Gavin and death threats from Michael. He tried calling out to them for a few minutes, shouting for them to stop running in the house and to come back to the kitchen. The farther away the shouts got, the more apparent it became that the two of them weren't going to listen to him.,
"Goddamn it," Geoff sighed, slouching onto one of the stools. "I should have stopped after two."
Ray pouted, "You don't like me, Daddy?"
"Nooooo," he drawled. "I like all of you equally, X-Ray. Your brothers are just really annoying sometimes."
Jack snorted, "You can say that again."
Geoff rubbed his hand in a circle over his nose, "Jack, get your backpack ready. Ryan, put the DS away and go get your brothers, please. And Ray, put the cereal away, please." There was a brief pause before the three set about their tasks.
Walking into the office, Geoff squeezed the bridge of his nose. It was quiet– a rarity when working at Roosterteeth– before one of the side doors opened.
"Tough morning?" questioned Burnie as he walked into the hallway.
Geoff sighed, "You could say that. Gavin and Michael are such a handful."
"They've always been," Burnie laughed. They walked down the hall together for a moment before he added, "You know, I could take them off your hands for a few hours if you need. Take them out to eat or down to the arcade."
"No," the word came out firmer then Geoff had meant for it to. "Sorry, I just– it's ridiculous since it's been almost two years now, but I feel like if they're gone too long I'm going to lose them like I did Griffon and Millie."
"It's okay. I can't imagine what I would do if I lost my wife and daughter. Just let me know if you need any help okay?"
Geoff nodded, "Yeah. Thanks, Burn."
Burnie hummed and patted Geoff's lower back, "Now get to work, Chump."
